Conclusion
Government established policy direction for implementation of
the SEA by enhancing the PERS
The new PERS has been implemented by June, 2006
Established the implementation methods for SEA and EIA to cope with
the dispute associated with implementation of the two EA system
Developed assessment methods for the SEA and EIA based on
the characteristics and data availability at the stage of policy, plan,
program, and project-established tiering system
SEA Guideline for water resources is under developing
