  • Feasibility Study on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions at Thanlyin Oil Refinery by the Modernization of Existing Facilities
    N E DO- I C-OOER3 1 Feasibility Study on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions at Thanlyin Oil Refinery by the Modernization of Existing Facilities March, 2001 New Energy and industrial Technologies Development Organization (NEDO) Entrusted to Cosmo Engineering Co, , Ltd. 020005096- Feasibility Study on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions at Thanlyin Oil Refinery by the Modernization of Existing Facilities Cosmo Engineering Co., Ltd. March, 2001 Study Purpose; At the Third Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 3), "The Kyoto Protocol” defining a target of the reduction of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide for the industrialized countries was adopted to prevent the ongoing global warming. Here, the international remedies such as "Jointed Implementation (JI)” and “Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)" are determined to flexibly trade the amount of the countries’ reduction through actual implementation of projects. Japan should also utilize these means to achieve our target. This report summarizes the survey for a project of energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction by introducing modern refinery facilities to Thanlyin Refinery, Myanma Petrochemical Enterprise and for future CDM. NEDO—IC—OOER31 Feasibility Study on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions at Thanlyin Oil Refinery by the Modernization of Existing Facilities March, 2001 New Energy and Industrial Technologies Development Organization (NEDO) Entrusted to Cosmo Engineering Co., Ltd. Preface This report summarizes “The 2000 Basic Investigation on Collaborations and Others: Feasibility Study on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions at Thanlyin Refinery by Modernization of Existing Facilities” carried out by Cosmo Engineering Co., Ltd. in commission by “New Energy and Development Organization (NEDO).” First, as the background of this investigation, we should mention the Third Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP-3) in December 1997.

  • Islamic Education in Myanmar: a Case Study
    10: Islamic education in Myanmar: a case study Mohammed Mohiyuddin Mohammed Sulaiman Introduction `Islam', which literally means `peace' in Arabic, has been transformed into a faith interpreted loosely by one group and understood conservatively by another, making it seem as if Islam itself is not well comprehended by its followers. Today, it is the faith of 1.2 billion people across the world; Asia is a home for 60 per cent of these adherents, with Muslims forming an absolute majority in 11 countries (Selth 2003:5). Since the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, international scholars have become increasingly interested in Islam and in Muslims in South-East Asia, where more than 230 million Muslims live (Mutalib 2005:50). These South-East Asian Muslims originally received Islam from Arab traders. History reveals the Arabs as sea-loving people who voyaged around the Indian Ocean (IIAS 2005), including to South-East Asia. The arrival of Arabs has had different degrees of impact on different communities in the region. We find, however, that not much research has been done by today's Arabs on the Arab±South-East Asian connection, as they consider South-East Asia a part of the wider `East', which includes Iran, Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. Indeed, the term `South-East Asia' is hardly used in modern Arab literature. For them, anything east of the Middle East and non-Arabic speaking world is considered to be `Asia' (Abaza 2002). According to Myanmar and non-Myanmar sources, Islam reached the shores of Myanmar's Arakan (Rakhine State) as early as 712 AD, via oceangoing merchants, and in the form of Sufism.

  • Atula Hsayadaw Shin Yasa: a Critical Biography of an Eighteenth-Century Burmese Monk
    Atula Hsayadaw Shin Yasa: a Critical Biography of an Eighteenth‐Century Burmese Monk (version 1.1) April 02, 2012 Alexey Kirichenko One of the few relatively well-known episodes in the eighteenth-century history of monastic Buddhism in Burma is the debate on how novices should be dressed when going outside of the monastery to collect alms food.1 Sometimes referred to as the ekaṃsika-pārupana or the “one shoulder” vs. the “two shoulder” controversy, the debate revolved around the issue of whether novices should wear their robes in the same fashion as the monks or whether they should be dressed in a specifically distinct manner. According to a number of influential Burmese sources, this issue caused a serious rift in the saṃgha, which lasted for almost a century and was remedied only through resolute actions of King Badon-min (Bodawpaya, 1782–1819). As a subject for debate and a cause for monastic reform, the “one shoulder” vs. the “two shoulder” controversy seems a typical case for Theravādin monasticism. The tendency of Theravāda monks to emphasize seemingly minor issues of discipline or ritual practice over the matters of doctrine is long noted in the literature.2 Such matters as the manner of wearing the robe or carrying the alms bowl, the acceptability of wearing footwear (in general or in specific contexts), the propriety of certain types of monastic fans, the permissibility of smoking after noon, the rules for intoning Pāli ceremonial and ritual formulas, calendrical practices, etc., engaged the best minds in the saṃgha for decades. The debates on such issues were usually fueled by inter-monastic competition and provided rallying points for different networks or groupings of monks as well as the justification for dissent in the eyes of lay patrons.

The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014, and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is now my hope that the main results, both Union and each of the State and Region reports, will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national and sub-national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and officers at the State/Region, District and Township Levels, and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.
