Malaysia-Thailand Joint Authority (MTJA)
Malaysia–Thailand Joint Development Area is a 7,250 km square area in the Gulf of Thailand which was created as an interim measure to exploit the natural resources in the seabed or continental shelf claimed by the two countries and to share the proceeds equally.
The arrangement does not extinguish the legal right to claims by both countries over the area.
This is one of the first applications of the joint development, a memorandum of understanding on 21 February 1979 in Chiang Mai, Thailand, for establishing the joint development area and authority to administer the area.
This was followed by an agreement to constitute the joint development authority on 30 May 1990 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
