ABSTRACT In an era of rapid economic growth and industrial development in developing countries in Asia, engineering education systems in these countries are under increasing pressure to meet the demands of the local labour markets. At the same time there is a lack of interest from students in engineering in Europe. With support from the Asia-Link Programme of European Commission, three projects on engineering design and manufacture, led by the University of Strathclyde, have been undertaken by eleven Institutions in nine countries in both Europe and Asia. These projects aim at establishing a European and Asian (EUROASIA) network in engineering design and manufacture, contributing to the demands of today’s multinational engineering industries, and promoting local development through engineering education for both Asia and Europe. One project has been successfully completed, and the other two projects are still ongoing. Overall, this network in engineering design and manufacture has been successfully built up; the proposed deliverables and achievements have been made; and the impact in the engineering sectors of Asian partner countries is positive and remarkable.

  • The Follow-Up Study on Integrated Master Plan for Sustainable Development of Siem Reap City in the Kingdom of Cambodia
    Siem Reap Provincial Government Kingdom of Cambodia The Follow-up Study on Integrated Master Plan for Sustainable Development of Siem Reap City in the Kingdom of Cambodia Final Report June 2010 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY PACET CORPORATION NIPPON KOEI CO., LTD. For the Currency Conversion, in case necessary, Exchange rate in May 2010 is applied: 1 KHR = 0.022 JPY 1 USD = 94.06 JPY PREFACE In response to a request from the Royal Government of Cambodia, the Government of Japan decided to conduct “The Study on Integrated Master Plan for Sustainable Development of Siem Reap/Angkor Town in the Kingdom of Cambodia” and entrusted the Study to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The Study was completed in March 2006. As a follow-up cooperation of the above mentioned study, JICA conducted the Follow-up Study on Integrated Master Plan for Sustainable Development of Siem Reap City in the Kingdom of Cambodia. JICA sent a study team headed by Mr. Kanao ITOH of PACET Corp. to Cambodia from February 2010 to May 2010. The team held discussions with the officials concerned in the Royal Government of Cambodia, and conducted field surveys in the study area. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further studies and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to sustainable development of Siem Reap City and to the enhancement of friendly relationship between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials of the Government and those concerned in Cambodia for the close cooperation they have extended to the study.
