Rationales At present WRS WRS has become a major and urgent issue for many river basins and regions in the world especially for transnational river basins and water-scarce territories. The Ma river basin is considered to be a place where has limited potentiality of water. However there are still tensions in the exploitation and use of water resources for the following reasons i The unequal distribution of water resources both in terms of space and time has caused floods and droughts affecting the exploitation and use of water among regions in the basin ii Disasters floods and droughts on the Ma river system frequently occur iii The hydrological regime in the main stream and on the tributaries of the Ma River basin has changed a lot due to the consequence of the construction and exploitation by small and medium water-use works in the basin. In addition extremely unusual weather patterns and climate change are also major causes of storms floods and depletion of water resources in the basin iv Water in the basin has been seriously polluted specially on the Lung Lach Truong Yen rivers and downstream of the Ma river. To contribute more scientific and practical foundations for planning exploitation and management of water resources with an aim to promote more sustainable socio-economic development and more effectively .
