The Mekong countries (including Cambodia, Lao PDR, Mynamar, Thailand and Vietnam) and Japan launched their cooperation in 2007 through the “Mekong-Japan Partnership Program” laying down goals, priority areas and new initiatives for deepening partnership between Mekong Region and Japan. Since then the Mekong-Japan cooperation has remarkably evolved in various fields of cooperation.
