The governments of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) and the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam requested the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) assistance to prepare the proposed Ban Sok–Pleiku Power Transmission Project for possible ADB financing.1 Preliminary fact-finding was undertaken during 11–15 February 2008, and the project’s concept clearance was obtained on 17 March 2008. Subsequently the mission was upgraded to fact-finding mission as it reached an understanding with the governments on the objectives, scope, cost estimates, financing plan, and implementation arrangements for this project preparatory technical assistance (TA). The design and monitoring framework is in Appendix 1. II. ISSUES 2. The Lao PDR has significant hydropower potential, estimated at about 18,000 megawatts (MW), but only 663 MW has been harnessed so far. Thirty-three potential hydropower sites have been evaluated for development, and 11 projects with a total capacity of 4,000 MW are expected to be developed in the next 15 years. Realizing the country’s hydroelectric power potential is challenging due to domestic resource constraints on financing its development. Recognizing the need to attract financing, the Government is strongly promoting private sector involvement. Consequently, most of the future projects are being developed by independent power producers under concession agreements with the Government. Due to fairly low domestic power demand and rapidly growing power demand in other parts of Southeast Asia, most of the country’s hydropower is destined for export, which provides an opportunity to generate much-needed foreign currency revenue. This revenue will enable investments in rural electrification as well as in other social development and poverty reduction programs. The Lao PDR’s export of hydropower also benefits other Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand and Viet Nam by providing economically efficient and climate- friendly power sources. 3. Viet Nam's economic growth over the past decade was on average about 7.5% per annum. This growth was achieved through sustained business-led growth in economic output and employment. Viet Nam faces a growing electricity supply deficit as a result of strong economic growth. The Sixth Power Development Plan (2006–2020) projects electricity demand to grow at 16% per annum (base-case scenario) during 2006–2010, slowing to 11% per annum during 2011–2015, and remaining at 9% per annum for the remainder of the period. Such high growth rates reflect the country’s high level of economic activity. To meet its demand, Viet Nam is exploring the possibility of importing electricity from its neighboring countries, especially Cambodia, the Lao PDR, and the People’s Republic of China, where investments in hydropower projects make importation competitive compared to local coal- and gas-fired power generation. The governments of the Lao PDR and Viet Nam signed a framework agreement in March 2008 to trade power. It provides power sale arrangements of up to 5,000 MW by 2020. 4. Regional electricity trade through interconnectivity of electric power grids will provide significant economic benefits for individual countries. Such trade will enable Viet Nam to (i) reduce national investments in the power reserves maintained to meet peak demand; (ii) provide a more reliable supply of electricity, including power supply from an interconnected network in case of power failure; (iii) reduce operational costs; (iv) reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants; and (v) increase consumers’ access to the cheaper and most environment-friendly sustainable source of electricity. In the Lao PDR, it will provide foreign revenues from taxes on the sale of electricity and from wheeling charges (i.e., use of 1 The technical assistance (TA) first appeared in the business opportunities section of ADB’s website on 25 March 2008. 2 transmission charges) that will help the country to implement, among other things, its rural electrification program. 5. The country strategy and program for the Lao PDR has recognized the importance of developing hydropower for export in order to generate foreign currency income through royalties, taxes, and dividends to the Government, which will in turn contribute to the country’s broader social and economic development.2 In addition, the regional cooperation strategy and program update for the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) focuses on (i) strengthening physical infrastructure for cross-border connectivity, and (ii) integrating national markets for promoting economic efficiency and private sector development. 3 The GMS’s power market is moving toward effective regional cooperation, and the Lao PDR is one of the pioneering countries in bilateral power trade in accordance with the GMS’s Inter-Governmental Agreement on Regional Power Trade and the memorandum of understanding that was signed in Vientiane at the Third GMS Summit on 31 March 2008. 6. The proposed project will consist of four components: (i) construction of a 65 kilometer (km), 500 kilovolt (kV), double-circuit transmission line from the Ban Sok substation in the Lao PDR to the Viet Nam border, (ii) construction of a 100 km, 500 kV, double-circuit transmission line from the Lao PDR border to the Pleiku substation in Viet Nam, (iii) construction of a 500/230 kV Ban Sok substation, and (iv) extension of the existing Pleiku 500/230kV substation. The 500 kV transmission line and the Ban Sok substation will be used as a common transmission facility to initially evacuate power from the Xe Kaman 1 (488 MW), Upper Se Kong 3 (152 MW), Lower Se Kong 3 (96 MW), and Dak Emeule (138 MW) hydropower projects. A total of 11 hydropower projects have been identified in southern Lao PDR with a total installed capacity of 1,300 MW, out of which about 1,000 MW will be exported through the Ban Sok–Pleiku power transmission line. The facilities in the Lao PDR will be owned by Electricité du Laos (EdL) and will be operated and maintained by a joint venture between EdL and the National Transmission Company (NTC)4 or any other form of association that will ensure reliability of the transmission facilities and at the same time provide necessary capacity building to EdL. Each hydropower project will construct a dedicated power transmission line to the Ban Sok substation. 7. By mid-2013, the Xe Kaman 1 hydropower project will be commissioned, followed by the Upper Se Kong 3, and the Lower Se Kong 3 in 2014. By the end of 2012, the Ban Sok–Pleiku 500 kV power transmission line and the associated substation should be complete and operating. 8. The proposed project is expected to be financed using ADB’s ordinary capital resources both in the Lao PDR and in Viet Nam. The corresponding loan’s debt service in the Lao PDR must be fully covered by the additional foreign currency revenue to be earned through wheeling charges.

    Welcome Remarks Welcome Remarks by Dr. Ho Thanh My Phuong, Director SEAMEO Regional Training Center (SEAMEO RETRAC) Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, It is my great pleasure, on behalf of SEAMEO RETRAC, to welcome all of you to this International Conference on “Impacts of Globalization on Quality in Higher Education”. I am really delighted with the attendance of more than 150 educational leaders, administrators, professors, educational experts, researchers and practitioners from both Vietnamese and international universities, colleges and other educational organizations. You are here to share your expertise, experience, research findings and best practices on three emerging issues (1) Management and Leadership in Higher Education; (2) Teaching and Learning in Higher Education; and (3) Institutional Research Capacity and Application. In view of the major challenges in the era of globalization in the 21st century and the lessons learned during the educational reforms taking place in many countries, these topics are indeed important ones. It is without a doubt that education quality, particularly of higher education, plays a crucial role in the development of the human resources of a nation. Higher Education provides a strong foundation to uplift the prospects of our people to participate and take full advantage of the opportunities in Southeast Asia and beyond. Along this line, the impact of the globalization in the development of a quality educational system has to be emphasized. It is becoming increasingly important for global educational experts to get together to identify what should be done to enhance and strengthen the higher education quality, especially in the globalized context. It has become more imperative than ever for higher education to prepare students to meet the dynamic challenges of the globalized world.

    UNIVERSITY COLLEGE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES AUSTRALIAN DEFENCE FORCE ACADEMY BAMU BAY REVISITED (1i?i - 1iii ): THE >TRATEQ10 S1GNJF8QANQE ©F Om mUU BAY TH[ AND mm. BY CAPTAIN JUAN A. DE LEON PN (GSC) NOVEMBER 1989 A SUB-THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF DEFENCE STUDIES II PREFACF AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT Southeast Asia is a region fast becoming the center stage of the 21st Century. One historian said that "the Mediterranean is the past, Europe is the present and the Asia-Pacific Region is the future." The future is now! This sub-thesis deals with contemporary issues now determining the future of the region going into the year 2000. Soviet attention was refocused on the Asia-Pacific region after Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev made his historic speech at Vladivostock on 28 July 1986. Since then developments have gone on at a pace faster than expected. The Soviets have withdrawn from Afghanistan. Then in September 1988, Gorbachev spelled out in detail his Vladivostock initiative through his Krasnoyarsk speech and called on major powers, the US, China and Japan, to respond to his peace offensives. He has offered to give up the Soviet presence in Cam Ranh if the US did likewise at Subic and Clark in the Philippines. To some it may appear attractive, while others consider that it is like trading "a pawn for a queen". This sub-thesis completes my ten-month stay in a very progressive country, Australia. I was fortunate enough having been given the chance to undertake a Master of Defence Studies Course (MDef Studies) at the University College, University of New South Wales, Australian Defence Force Academy upon the invitation of the Australian Government.

  • Da Lat at One Time Da Lat Was an Ideal Holiday Retreat, Set Amongst the Low Hills of the Central Highlands
    Da Lat At one time Da Lat was an ideal holiday retreat, set amongst the low hills of the Central Highlands. It was originally founded in 1897 by Alexander Yersin and Dalat city was established in 1912. The city served as a hill station for the French trying to escape the heat of the plains and delta. The city enjoys a year round spring like climate and this lovely setting and ideal climate have made the city a hit with domestic and foreign tourists alike. Da Lat has a charming French district behind the Rap 3-4 cinema, which is well worth exploring. This is also where a number of the good hotels in Da Lat are situated. In the centre of town there is a large fresh produce market which sells some of the nicest strawberries (when in season) that you can ever hope to taste! Da Lat is also the centre of kitsch in Vietnam. Keep an eye out for the Dalat Cowboys, who ride around the town on horseback. You an also take a ride on a swan boat in the lake or buy one of the dozens of tacky trinkets on sale in the market. Da Lat has a lot worth visiting, especially if you are into kitsch. Dalat has the only eighteen hole golf course in Vietnam, and anyone can play a round there! A few hours could quite easily be spent riding bikes around the lake a stopping off at the interesting sights near it. The Botanical gardens also offers a lovely place to hang out.
