The overall aim is to facilitate and to encourage increased cooperation and information sharing on wildlife trade issues that are important to South-east Asia. This e-Bulletin is produced by TRAFFIC – the wildlife trade monitoring network of WWF and IUCN. TRAFFIC and its partners continue to work in partnership with South-east Asian governments – as well as with the ASEAN Secretariat and relevant ASEAN fora – to address wildlife trade, CITES implementation and wildlife trade law enforcement. You may access previous e-bulletin issues and other resources via the ASEAN Wildlife Trade Initiative’s website: http://www.traffic.org/25/network9/ASEAN. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with TRAFFIC Southeast Asia should you have any queries or requests for further information on CITES and wildlife trade in South-east Asia.
