| In 1994 and 2002, a total of 16 Irrawaddy dolphins were captured in Cambodia for export to Thailand or to stock local displays. |
| The European Commission continues to provide substantial financial support for the medium-term recovery of the Irrawaddy Delta. |
| For example, we are now leaning in favour of the proposal to outlaw commercial trade in the Irrawaddy dolphin. |
| It has been estimated that 1 million people in the Irrawaddy Delta are in need of food aid. |
| Reaching people in the Irrawaddy Delta was equally challenging as roads and bridges were destroyed, and vast areas of land were under water. |
| In other words, the present humanitarian disaster is set to be compounded in the medium term by a food production crisis in the Irrawaddy Delta. |
