Biotechnology Policy-Making, Regulations and Development in the ASEAN Region

ASEAN countries are highly diversified in terms of R&D, human resources development, basic infrastructure, facilities, etc. and capacity building mechanism is urgently needed in the whole region
It is most obvious that all ASEAN countries are, to a very large extent, aware and technically concerned with the development and advance in modern agricultural biotechnology going on globally and within the region
There is a need for alignment and synergies of the existing policies under different national competent authorities in each ASEAN country
Where appropriate, there is a need to harmonize biotechnology/biosafety regulations within the region and taking into account similar attempt being made under the ASEAN flagship
Cooperation, collaboration, linkages and networking in modern biotechnology/biosafety among the ASEAN countries need to be initiated and strengthened
