Editor's Notes
- Marine environmental degradation is often a result of inefficient management of the multiple uses of the coastal and marine areas. Inadequacy in environmental planning at local and national levels, coupled with policy, institutional and enforcement failures are key contributing factors. Remedial measures are often expensive and may take up as much as 0.8 to 1 per cent of the national gross domestic product (World Bank 1998). The direct cause, however, is the lack of needed capacity especially at the local level to plan and manage their natural resources. The lack of political will is often blamed for most environmental failures, but the inability to link economic and social benefits to environmental management often makes environmental issues low in the political and economic agenda of most countries.

- In 1993, the East Asian Seas nations collectively launched a regional initiative aimed at addressing the social, environmental and economic consequences of a continuing trend of degradation of their regional sea. The Regional Programme for the Prevention and Management of Marine Pollution in the East Asian Seas (MPP-EAS) was designed to demonstrate how marine pollution can be prevented and managed in developing countries through the application of appropriate policy, institutional and technological interventions. The Regional Programme began operation in January 1994 and completed all major activities in December 1998. The Global Environment Facility provided US$ 8 million in support of the Programme. The Programme was implemented by the United Nations Development Programme and executed by the International Maritime Organization. Eleven nations participated in the regional initiative. The second phase of the Regional Programme, Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia (PEMSEA), commenced in October 1999. The follow-on programme has been approved by the GEF with a budget of US$ 16.2 million, with UNDP as implementing agency, and IMO continuing to serve as executing agency.

- Changes arising from implementation of the Strategy will be documented and assessed. Further refinement is done through integrated environmental monitoring and reporting, scientific research and South-South cooperation. These measures do not only advance knowledge of ecosystem management but also provides inputs to sustainable economic development, innovations, practices and technologies at the national and local levels.
