McNeely CHARTER FOR MANGROVES 469 INTERNATIONAL TRAINERS' TRAINING PROGRAMME: SCHEDULE 473 DIRECTORY OF CANDIDATES 479 GUEST FACULTY 483 I " PREFACE During my stay in the Philippines from 1982-88 as Director General of the International Rice Research Institute, I was struck by the beauty and utility of mangrove forests in many of the islands of that country. It was then I took a fascination for the mangrove ecosystems. Later, I witnessed with sorrow fairly rapid damage to several of these valuable ecosystems as a result of the expansion of coastal aquaculture and urbanisation. Quite often coastal development projects, including aquaculture, were environmentally destructive and socially disruptive. I then felt that concerted action to save the remaining mangrove forests should be initiated. On my return to India, I observed that the fate of many mangrove forest areas was in grave jeopardy as a result of anthropogenic pressures. Therefore, the highest priority was given in the research and training agenda of the Centre for Research on Sustainable Agricultural and Rural Development (CRSARD) established in Madras in 1990 to the conservation and sustainable management of mangrove forest areas. In 1990, I was elected the first President of the International Society of Mangrove Ecosystems (ISME) with its headquarters at Okinawa, Japan and I took this opportunity to suggest the preparation of a Charter for Mangroves on the model of the World Charter for Nature adopted by the United Nations in 1982. ISME prepared such a Charter under the guidance of Dr. Colin Field and this Charter finds a place in this publication. In September 1989, I was invited to deliver a lecture by the Government of Japan on the potential problems which may arise from changes in sea level due to global warming. I then pleaded for special attention to the conservation of genetic diversity in mangrove species since it may be possible to transfer genes for tolerance to sea water intrusion from them to other plants through recombinant DNA technology. The late Dr. Saburo Okita, who was the Chairman of the Tokyo Conference, recommended that the International Tropical Timber Organization (lTTO) located at Yokohama should initiate work on the conservation of mangrove ecosystems. Fortunately, immediately after this meeting, Dr. B.C.Y.Freezailah, Executive Director, ITTO and I happened to travel in the same plane to New Delhi. I then mentioned to Dr. Freezailah that we would like to prepare a proposal for assembling mangrove experts from different parts of the World to

  • From Asian to Global Financial Crisis
    This page intentionally left blank FROM ASIAN TO GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS This is a unique insider account of the new world of unfettered finance. The author, an Asian regulator, examines how old mindsets, market fundamental- ism, loose monetary policy, carry trade, lax supervision, greed, cronyism, and financial engineering caused both the Asian crisis of the late 1990s and the cur- rent global crisis of 2007–2009. This book shows how the Japanese zero inter- est rate policy to fight deflation helped create the carry trade that generated bubbles in Asia whose effects brought Asian economies down. The study’s main purpose is to demonstrate that global finance is so interlinked and interactive that our current tools and institutional structure to deal with critical episodes are completely outdated. The book explains how current financial policies and regulation failed to deal with a global bubble and makes recommendations on what must change. Andrew Sheng is currently the Chief Adviser to the China Banking Regulatory Commission and a Board Member of the Qatar Financial Centre Regulatory Authority, Khazanah Nasional Berhad and Sime Darby Berhad, Malaysia. He is also Adjunct Professor at the Graduate School of Economics and Management, Tsinghua University, Beijing, and at the Faculty of Economics and Administration at the University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur. Mr Sheng was Chairman of the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong from 1998 to 2005. A former central banker with Bank Negara Malaysia and Hong Kong Monetary Authority, between 2003 and 2005 he was Chairman of the Technical Committee of IOSCO, the International Organization of Securities Commissions, the standard setter for securities regulation.

  • Other Parts of Asia
    ARNDT’S STORY . 21 OTHER PARTS OF ASIA Despite Heinz’s passion for Indonesia, it would be wrong to categorise him as merely an ‘Indonesianist’. His early Asian engagements, as we have seen, were in Malaya, Singapore and India. For the rest of his life, he retained strong academic connections and friendships in many parts of Asia. (He never went to China or to Africa; and he visited Latin America only fleetingly.) Bangkok especially interested him, largely because of his membership of the Governing Council of the UN Asian Institute for Economic Development and Planning (ADI for short). This institute was financed by contributions from the member countries of the UN Economic Commission for Asia and the Far East (ECAFE), with an annual supplement from the UN Development Program (UNDP). Heinz, under the patronage of Mick Shann, was elected to the council for two terms, from 1969 to 1974. He greatly enjoyed the council’s annual Bangkok meetings. They usually occupied a couple of days, so there was plenty of time to cultivate and nourish friendships, such as with the Indonesians Widjojo and Sumarlin, and Gerry Sicat, an economist from the University of the Philippines in Manila. A social highlight of each meeting was an informal dinner at the house of U Nyun, ECAFE’s Executive Secretary. On these occasions, more serious discussions were punctuated by friendly banter, such as the light-hearted argument about which country produced the finest mangoes. Heinz observed, wryly, that he ‘did not feel called upon to bat for Queensland’. As is often the case with such bodies, the ADI was torn between teaching and research.

Wararak Chalermpuntusak Abstract This project aims at illuminating that agents’ ideas/perceptions on their (social) surrounding affect their deliberative actions to improve their regional security. The engaging/networking agents’ main attempt is to enlarge the scope of traditional security to accommodate more comprehensive aspects by using regional economic concerns as a spearhead before extending to other fields. Familiarity and socialising process through conferences and workshops are both positive outcomes and structure for agents’ ideas/perceptions on engaging/networking activities. Yet, agents’ (socially) collective identity has not commonly perceived as expected by a set-up framework. This project is conducted in a circular style which is open for revising a set-up framework employed here for narrating the results in a chronological fashion.

    ‘Australia is located at a superficially convenient point in geographical terms and in industrial strength to stress our interest in Asia, and in particular our interest in the two nations at the north-west and north­ east extremities of the arc facing in­ wards to the Asian heartland: India and Japan. Yet there seems no tri­ angular relationship much thought about, let alone practised.’ These words are taken from Sir John Craw­ ford’s foreword to this book, which is the outcome of his suggestion that a conference be sponsored by the Re­ search School of Pacific Studies at the Australian National University in order that these three countries should get to know one another better. The papers and discussions pre­ sented here cover both political and economic questions. They examine the background of bilateral relations between India and Japan, Australia and Japan, and Australia and India; INDIA they discuss the future of Japanese economic involvement in South and Southeast Asia; they discuss India’s economic problems and the extent to which Australia and Japan can help with these; and they consider the JAPAN possibilities of co-operation between the three countries. The book will find readers in the fields of business, education, and government, and should interest all those who are concerned about Aust­ AUSTRAL! ralia’s future relations with Asia.

  • HUMAN DEVELOPMENT the Neglected Dimension
    HUMAN DEVELOPMENT The Neglected Dimension TO BRADFORD MORSE This book is dedicated to Bradford Morse, Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme (1976-86), on the occasion of his retirement. During his ten years as UNDP Administrator, Bradford Morse has never missed an opportunity to bring to the attention of the international community the vital role of the human element in the development process. Indeed, his name has become synonymous worldwide with the human dimension in development. He has long warned the international community that neglect of this element will significantly retard long-te~^m, self-sustained development. His commitment to these ideals is not limited to his international career, but finds its roots in his personality and the deep convictions which have guided 'him throughout his life and work.
