  • 7. Socio-Economic Environment
    Sunrise Gas Project Environmental Impact Statement 7. Socio-Economic Environment 7.1 Local and Regional Economic Structure Northern Territory, Australia Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory and its proximity to major economic growth areas in the Asia Pacific region provides a stable foundation for the Territory to play a major role in the future of the Asia Pacific Region. Darwin is the economic focus for Northern Australia and as a result Darwin’s economy closely reflect the economic prosperity of the Northern Territory (Darwin City Council, 2001). With continued growth in mining and tourism Darwin’s role as the socio-economic focus for the Territory will be further expanded and enhanced (Darwin City Council, 2001). Darwin is serviced with a seaport comprising land connections to a major international airport and national highway system. Darwin is also equipped with world standard communications systems and has emerging information technology capabilities. Traditionally secondary industry was seen as the focus of the economy but in latter years the tertiary service and information technology sectors have provided the impetus for economic redevelopment. The Northern Territory economy differs from most Australian economies including: G The public sector – there are a high number of public servants in Darwin compared to other capital cities; G The mining and tourism industries - both industries are significant contributors to the Darwin economy; G The ownership of dwellings – Darwin has a high amount of public housing compared to the rest of Australia; and G The manufacturing sector – Darwin has very few manufacturing industries compared to the rest of Australia (Darwin City Council, 2001).

    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of Masters Degree in Finance from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics. TIMOR TELECOM CASE STUDY – TEN YEARS OF EXPERIENCE ANDRÉ FILIPE TOMÉ LOPES CASTELHANO HERMENEGILDO, MST 16000393 A Project carried out under the supervision of Professor José Neves de Adelino June 2013 1 NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSSINESS & ECONOMICS Timor Telecom Case Study: Ten Years of Experience Dr. Manuel Capitão Amaro, Timor Telecom’s CEO since 2007, was once again assessing the final results of last week’s negotiations with the Timorese Government. At the top of the discussion were the anticipated cession of the concession contract signed in 2002 and the future of Timor Telecom (TT), the subsidiary of Portugal Telecom (PT) operating in East Timor. The 15 year Build Operate and Transfer (BOT) contract, whereby TT would manage and provide telecom services under an exclusive basis, was going to terminate after only 10 years. Market conditions were going to change with the entrance of two major telecom players in South East Asia. From the top of his office in Timor Plaza, he gathered his team around the table to draft a strategic plan to prepare the company for the great challenge lying ahead. Prior to 1999: East Timor at a glance The legacy of East Timor was that its people had always lived under the influence of foreigners. For centuries, this small territory on the eastern part of the Timor Island was under Portuguese sovereignty. The Portuguese Revolution in 1974 brought the independence of the former Portuguese colonies, and East Timor had the opportunity to become an independent nation.
