AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Climate Watch: Experts say this year’s El Niño may intensify into a Super El Niño, with models pointing to a higher chance of drought across Southeast Asia—raising alarms for monsoon rains that rice farming depends on. Water Security: Vientiane has signed concession deals for two new tap-water plants under a 30-year BOT model, targeting clean-water supply in Sisattanak and Sikhottabong. Regional Power Planning: Malaysia’s TNB says it is well-positioned to help drive the ASEAN Power Grid, aiming to share electricity when demand spikes. Biodiversity Under Pressure: A new regional snapshot warns that extreme rainfall risk is already rising in parts of Southeast Asia, while another report flags over 4,300 species across the region as critically endangered or endangered. Wildlife Recovery: Laos approved a 10-year National Tiger Recovery Action Plan (2026–2035), shifting focus toward habitat and prey restoration after years without verified wild tiger records.
