The Mekong Basin is the home of six countries: The Kingdom of Cambodia, Yunnan province of People's Republic of China, Lao PDR, The Union of Myanmar, The Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and the Kingdom of Thailand. After a meeting in Bangkok, in February 1999, delegates from all countries agreed to start collaboration in Disease Surveillance under the name Mekong Basin Disease Surveillance (MBDS). The General objective is to strengthen national and Mekong sub-regional capabilities in disease surveillance and response to outbreaks of priority diseases, in order that they can be effectively controlled. Priority diseases are vaccine preventable diseases, e.g., Malaria, Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever and Dengue Fever, Cholera, and outbreaks of those of unknown etiologies.
