Asian Development Bank | June 2009
Abstract
The GMS Core Agriculture Support Program (CASP) endorsed by the GMS Agriculture Ministers’ Meeting in 2007 outlines the key objectives, program components, and indicative projects for subregional cooperation to be pursued by the Working Group on Agriculture (WGA) between 2006-2010. A new regional technical assistance RETA 6521: Accelerating the Implementation of the CASP was approved in December 2008 for funding in the amount of US$2 Million ($0.5 Million from PRC and $1.5 Million from ADB). An inception meeting was held at the FAO Regional Office in Bangkok, Thailand in the afternoon of 5 March 2009 to (i) provide better understanding of the RETA and discuss activities, performance targets and implementation issues; and (ii) discuss the roles of the Working Group on Agriculture (WGA) Secretariat and implementing partners.
