MEKONG BASIN DISEASE SURVELLANCE (MBDS)
The Asia Partnership on Emerging Infectious Diseases Research (APEIR) was initiated in
2006 to promote regional collaboration in avian influenza research. In 2009, the partnership
expanded its scope to include all emerging infectious diseases (EIDs). APEIR is a research
network, composed of researchers, practitioners and senior government officials from
Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.
APEIR is built to develop a strong research network in Asia that generates 3M (multi-
disciplinary, multi-sector and multi-country) collaborative researches and actions on EIDs
based on ecohealth / onehealth concepts, and which facilitates communication and knowledge
sharing among countries to reduce the threat of EIDs and the burden on these countries,
especially on poor and marginalized groups in the region.
Mitigating Biosecurity Threats in Southeast Asia
MEKONG BASIN DISEASE SURVELLANCE (MBDS)
General Objective
The overall objective of the project is to strengthen regional capacity for understanding,
preventing, preparing for, and responding to disease agents that have bioterrorism and/or
pandemic potential in Southeast Asia.
Specific Objectives
1.Develop a greater understanding of the risks of an infectious pandemic emerging from
natural, accidental or intentional means, at high-traffic border crossings in Southeast Asia.
2.Strengthen laboratory and field surveillance, diagnostics, prevention and response capacities
towards infectious pathogens with bioterrorism and/or pandemic potential.
3.Synergize efforts among partner GPP projects in laboratory capacity strengthening and web-
based pandemic risk assessment.
4.Build effective and efficient mechanisms for research to directly inform and shape regional
policies and practices in surveillance, outbreak investigation and response.
Action Plan
MEKONG BASIN DISEASE SURVELLANCE (MBDS)
1. Set up a joint APEIR-MBDS Core Team
2. Conduct Inception workshop and Project launching
3. Risk Management Training workshop for Bio Threat surveillance at XB areas
4. Biosafety & Biosecurity guideline development workshop
5. Evaluation the degree of cross border transmission of organism of interest in the cross borders
area
6. Cross Border Biosafety and Biosecurity detection by using developed guideline
7. Evaluate the result and sharing experience with other regional networks
8. Regular checking of regional / global Biosecurity signals and uploads to MBDS and APEIR
Websites and share with all stakeholders.
9. APEIR will develop the Biosecurity research databank.
10. MBDS will develop Mobile phone application for Biothreat surveillance.
11. Upload WHO Biosafety manuals, guidelines and other related documents into APEIR and
MBDS Website.
12. The developed field level Biosafety and Biosecurity manual will be applied in other MBDS
active cross border sites.

Future for Collaboration
MEKONG BASIN DISEASE SURVELLANCE (MBDS)
MBDS as Platform for program implementation
MBDS has cover Six Mekong Countries international XB checkpoint area
Provincials / States Health Officials are Coordinators (focal) for MBDS
XB XC program
Identified role and responsibility for all XB Coordinators
MBDS Programs are inline with National Disease Surveillance System
Network collaboration, policy guidance, full time secretariat
Trust and mutual understanding are key of MBDS
