Excerpt
The Asean Centre for Biodiversity (ACB) congratulates the recipients of the Blue Park Award by Marine Conservation Institute at the 2022 United Nations Ocean Conference in Lisbon, Portugal. Two marine parks from the Asean – the Apo Reef Natural Park and Raja Ampat Islands Marine Conservation Area (Kawasan Konservasi Perairan Kepulauan Raja Ampat), received the platinum and gold-level awards, respectively, at the global gathering for oceans. ACB Executive Director Theresa Mundita Lim congratulated the parks for meeting the highest science-based standards for marine conservation. “We commend the Apo Reef Natural Park and the Raja Ampat Islands Marine Conservation Area for their designation as thriving emblems of the Asean region’s spectacular marine biodiversity,” Lim said in a statement.
