The ASEAN region’s relentless campaign to conserve and protect its rich but highly threatened biodiversity and ecosystems, took centre stage in the International Conference on Biodiversity hosted by Thailand from 22 to 24 May 2019. With no less than the Princess of the Kingdom of Thailand, Her Royal Highness Maha Chakri Sirindhorn gracing the opening ceremonies, the event emphasised the importance of biodiversity to the quality of human life and the economy.
