Rra Report Attapeu Watershed Attapeu
Page 1 of 9 ADB RETA 5771 Poverty Reduction & Environmental Management in Remote Greater Mekong Subregion Watersheds Project (Phase I) RRA REPORT ATTAPEU WATERSHED ATTAPEU & CHAMPASSACK PROVINCE, LAO PDR Special Report By Latsamay Sylavong 1. General Background Attapeu watershed is located in the Southern part of Lao PDR. This watershed is covered in 2 provinces as the whole of Attapeu province and a small part of Champassack provinces (the Plateau Boloven). There are about 900 Kilometres from Vientiane Municipality and 180 kilometres from Pakse. Access to those 4 villages differs from one to another village due to the selection criteria for the RRA survey in order to cover the main ethnic minorities in the watershed area. It is found easy access to 2 villages of Champassack province (Boloven Plateau) for both seasons and very difficult to get to other 2 villages of Attapeu province, especially during raining season. The purpose of this survey is to describe the existing agroecosystems within the watershed area as the relationship to the use of forest resource by human population. In addition, Attapeu watershed is one of the shortlist watersheds priorities in Lao PDR. In the Attapeu watershed 4 villages were studied and detailed information of demographic survey in different ethnic villages as Nha Heune, Alak, Laven and Chung. The number of villages depends on the time available for this survey and the difficulty in access within this area, and the time spending at each village also depends on the size of the village. All 4 villages were selected by the survey team together with the local authorities of both provinces as Champassack and Attapeu.

Department of Electricity, Ministry of Energy and Mines Electricité du Laos Lao People’s Democratic Republic The Study on Power Network System Plan in Lao People’s Democratic Republic Final Report January 2010 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY Tokyo Electric Power Company, Inc. Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. IDD JR 09-090 PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic, the Government of Japan decided to conduct “The Study on Power Network System Plan in Lao People’s Democratic Republic” which was entrusted to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA selected and dispatched between October 2008 and January 2010 a study team headed by Mr. Masaharu YOGO of Tokyo Electric Power Company, Inc. (TEPCO) comprised of TEPCO and Nippon Koei Co., Ltd.. The team held discussions with concerned officials from the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic and conducted field surveys. Upon returning to Japan, further studies were conducted and a final report was prepared. The power network system plan up to 2030 has been formulated taking into consideration the situations of both the power sector and LAO PDR’s existing power facilities in this study. An evaluation of the prioritization of the projects for power network development has been conducted. The highest prioritized project’s, facility design and validity was confirmed and a cost estimation was conducted. I hope that this report will contribute to power network system planning in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic as well as enhancing the friendly relationship between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials representing the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic for their unwavering cooperation in support of this study.

Remote Village Education Support Project, Pathoumphone District
Remote Village Education Support Project Pathoumphone District, Champasak Province, Lao PDR Village Survey Report May 10 - 20, 2001 Prepared by Monty Sly Global Association for People and the Environment P.O. Box 860, Pakse, Lao PDR e-mail: [email protected] 2 Introduction This report was prepared after completion of a survey of ten remote villages in Pathoumphone district, Champasak province, Lao PDR, between May 10th and 20th, 2001. During consultations between representatives of the Canadian non- government organization the Global Association for People and the Environment (GAPE) and Champasak provincial education ofﬁcials, Pathoumphone district was identiﬁed as one of the two districts of Champasak province with the most pressing education problems. These include a low percentage of students in school, irregular attendance, teachers who are too often absent, lack of education materials, and poor condition of schools. Villages located in other districts of Champasak province, such as those along the Mekong river, including Khong district, Pakse district and Phonthong district are not as cut-off and isolated as many of the villages in Pathoumphone district, and thus have higher numbers of students in school, better access to educational materials, and more regular teachers. We expressed our interest in providing educational support, especially to remote villages which do not have year round road access, and thus likely have more than their share of education problems. Ten remote villages in Pathoumphone district were selected to be
