The ESC is held every three years in PEMSEA member countries. It took place in Malaysia in 2003, China in 2006, the Philippines in 2009 and the Republic of Korea in 2012.
The PEMSEA managing director Adrian Stephen Ross thanked Danang for hosting the event and said “Building a national demonstration sites for integrated coastal management” project has been implemented in the city since 2000. Hosting the event will help Danang introduce the project to international friends.
