Governments across Southeast Asia are revising environmental policies following the catastrophic floods of late 2025. The disaster, which displaced over 2 million people and caused $8 billion in damages, exposed critical gaps in infrastructure and early warning systems, according to the Asian Development Bank. New policies focus on sustainable urban planning, improved flood defenses, and community-based disaster preparedness.
