Phase One: Project launch ceremony, online mechanism construction, cross-border visits and cooperation, local promotion, and institutionalization.

Phase Two: Mutual visits and phase review, mechanism optimization and implementation, and summary seminar.

In personnel exchanges, three Mekong River Linkage Seminars attracted approximately 270 local officials, strengthening cross-border relations. Mutual visits also enhanced connections among officials and community relations.

For institutional building, 44 NTS-Mekong Watch coordination centers were established, providing a public platform (www.nts-mekong.com) for reporting security issues and promoting cooperation between communities and authorities.

In publicity, the project website received around 5,100 annual visits, with approximately 20 articles published in both Thai and English. Video production and the dissemination of government mechanism information further enhanced the project’s influence.

For cooperation expansion, a joint event with UNODC involved 11 government agencies, strengthening collaboration and refining the roadmap. Multiple training sessions on non-traditional security topics increased the awareness and response capabilities of relevant personnel.

Overall, these achievements effectively improved the region\'s ability to address non-traditional security challenges and laid a solid foundation for the security and stability of the Mekong River region.

Reciprocal Visit: Thai district officers from 44 districts are hosting their counterparts from Laos PDR and Cambodia in Thailand, following last year’s group visits to those countries in 2023.
