The Western Pacific Regional Green Light Committee (rGLC WPR) was established in 2011 to promote the rational scale-up of programmatic management of drug-resistant tuberculosis (PMDT). We reflect on its achievements, consider the challenges faced, and explore its potential future role. Achievements include the supervision and support of national PMDT action plans, increased local ownership, contextualized guidance, and a strong focus on regional capacity building, as well as a greater awareness of regional challenges. Future rGLC activities should include (1) advocacy for high-level political commitment; (2) monitoring, evaluation, and supervision; (3) technical support and contextualized guidance; and (4) training, capacity building, and operational research. Regional activities require close collaboration with both national and global efforts, and should be an important component of the new Global Drug-resistant TB Initiative.
西太平洋区域绿灯委员会（rGLC WPR）成立于2011年，旨在推动耐药结核病规划管理（PMDT）的合理扩大规模。我们反思其成就，考虑所面临的挑战，并探索其未来可能发挥的作用。成就包括对国家PMDT行动计划的监督和支持、增强地方自主权、因地制宜的指导、高度重视区域能力建设以及对区域挑战有了更强的认识。rGLC未来的活动应包括：（1）倡导高层政治承诺；（2）监测、评估和监督；（3）技术支持和因地制宜的指导；（4）培训、能力建设和行动研究。区域活动需要与国家和全球的努力密切协作，并且应成为新的全球耐药结核病倡议的重要组成部分。
