Driving Regional Prosperity in Southeast Asia

In the heart of Southeast Asia, the Ayeyawady, Chao Phraya, and Mekong rivers converge, binding Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand, and Viet Nam in a shared vision of economic cooperation and sustainable development. Established in 2003, the Ayeyawady – Chao Phraya – Mekong Economic Cooperation Strategy (ACMECS) emerged from the Special ASEAN Summit on SARS, culminating in the historic Bagan Declaration. This foundational document set forth to increasing capacities, generating growth, creating employment opportunities and narrowing economic and development gaps between all Member Countries.
