activity. Pilot implementation, which may help building resilience to climate impact that
has immediate as well as long-term benefit, such as seasonal climate forecast, may be
further explored and pilot test be implemented.
The climate change has impact on both bio-physical systems as well as socioeconomic
aspects, and in many cases, need to be considered in regional scale as it may
impact large geographic coverage and may have consequences that are trans-boundary.
Furthermore, the efforts to cope with climate change impact in one location may cause
side effect the other locations or systems or sectors, which could also be trans-boundary
issue. This call for regional collaboration to jointly look into the issues together in order
to establish and share common understanding on the impact and adaptation in bigger
picture at regional scale, of which would ultimately lead to the adaptation strategy that
could be implemented collectively under holistic approach to achieve better efficiency
and effectiveness in coping with the climate stress and also help avoid conflict that may
arise from discreet planning and implementation.
