Résumé

The Intergovernmental Coordination Group for the Pacific Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System (ICG/PTWS) was first established by the IOC in 1965 as a cooperation mechanism for countries in the Pacific whose coastal areas were threatened by tsunamis. Through the ICG, Member States have designed and developed the Pacific Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System and work together since to improve and sustain it. At its 29th session on 1-2 and 7-8 December 2021, the ICG/PTWS decided to continue the Regional Working Group on Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System in the South China Sea Region under the leadership of Mr Dakui Wang (China) and
Ms Suci Anugrah (Indonesia).

In this context, I am pleased to inform you that the eleventh meeting of the ICG/PTWS Regional Working Group on Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System in the South China Sea Region (ICG/PTWS-WG/SCS-XI) will be hosted by the National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center (NMEFC) in Guangzhou, China from 4 to 6 July 2023.
