The coastal zones are very important areas in Southeast Asia because rapid industrialisation and urbanisation have taken place along the coasts, and a significant percentage of the total protein consumption in the region is from marine fisheries. Changes in the hydrological and nutrient cycles as results of development manifest their effects immediately in these coastal zones. The primary variables from upstream processes, altered through land use and land cover changes, impacting on the coastal zone are water quality and fluxes of sediments, nutrients and toxic substances. That leads to toxic algal blooms, for example. The presence of such pollutants causes serious impacts on coastal-marine productivity, habitability and public health. In this paper, some coastal-marine pollution issues in Southeast Asia and its impacts on public health will be presented. The participation of the coastal communities to the coastal-marine pollution control will be discussed.
