Short summary of decisions that was made on the meeting:

Details about the sampling cruise in November were set. The cruise will include a 24 hour anchor station conducting measurements every 2 hours, ADCP measurements in the estuary along with significant biological sampling.

New features of the website was discussed and an outline for a new Vietnamese section was agreed upon.

Finally a discussion was started about the possibility of setting up a VN & DK Co-operation Centre in Marine Science at the Institute of Oceanography, Nha Trang. Nothing definite was decided but the involved workgroups will have a contribution ready for a meeting to be held mid-2010.
