Ltd. Oriental Consultants Global Co. Ltd. Data Collection Survey on the Outer Ring Road Diversion Channel in the Comprehensive Flood Management Plan for the Chao Phraya River Basin in the Kingdom of Thailand Summary 1: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE 1.1 Background The Chao Phraya River Basin (hereinafter called “the Basin”), which occupies about one-third of the total territory of the Kingdom of Thailand, have provided benefits for the agriculture through frequent floods. However, due to of rapid economic growth, the land use has drastically changed as more properties and assets concentrate in potential flood areas. Mitigation of floods risks has become an urgent issue due to the urban development. During the severe flood in 2011, seven industrial estates in the north of Bangkok were inundated, and 469 Japanese companies were affected by this severe flood. The economic loss was estimated at approximately THB 1,400 billion. JICA prepared and submitted the Comprehensive Flood Management Plan for the Chao Phraya River Basin (hereinafter called “the Master Plan (JICA MP)”) upon the request from the Royal Thai Government in June 2013. In JICA MP, the city of Bangkok and the surrounding areas (to the east of Tha Chin River, and to the south of Pasak River in the city of Ayutthaya), which the Royal Thai Government designated as the priority Protected Area, were defined as the priority area for protection, for which the following structural and nonstructural measures were proposed.

    Part I Developments in Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration that Underpin Japan’s Economic Growth ~ Strategic infrastructure management that brings about productivity revolution ~ Section 1 Japanese Economy and Its Surrounding Conditions I Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration and Tourism Transport Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Chapter 1, Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration, on the assumption of discussions described in chapter 2 and following sections, looks at the significance of the effects infrastructure development has on economic growth with awareness of severe circumstances surrounding the Japanese economy from the perspective of history and statistical data. Section 1, Japanese Economy and Its Surrounding Conditions, provides an overview of an increasingly declining population, especially that of a productive-age population, to become a super aging society with an estimated aging rate of close to 40% in 2050, and a severe fiscal position due to rapidly growing, long-term outstanding debts and other circumstances. Section 2, Economic Trends and Infrastructure Development, looks at how infrastructure has supported peoples’ lives and the economy of the time by exploring economic growth and the history of infrastructure development (Edo period and post-war economic growth period). In international comparisons of the level of public investment, we describe the need to consider Japan’s poor land and severe natural environment, provide an overview of the stock effect of the infrastructure, and examine its impact on the infrastructure, productivity, and economic growth.

    CONSERVATION AND RESTORATION OF RIVER ENVIRONMENT Kazuo OKAYAMA1, Noboru MARUOKA2 1 INTRODUCTION Japan’s rivers are one of its most precious resources. They are the habitat for a wide variety of life and are a key element in the natural environments and cultures of each region of the country. The people’s close relationship and interaction with rivers and riverside environments is an integral part of the national culture. River areas are of inestimable value as spaces for rest and recreation. On the other hand, ongoing construction work such as straightening river channels and building concrete revetments is necessary to prevent flood damage and landslides. Unfortunately, these kinds of effective flood control measures often come at the expense of altering the natural environments of rivers and the surrounding Fig. 1 The River in Hokkaido is an example of a desirable river environment. landscape. The rise in the standard of living that has taken place in Japan in the past few decades has created new needs and new expectations of a higher quality of life and an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of pleasant environment. This has led to people taking a new look at problems related to environmental protection and building regional communities. As a result, new concepts are being advanced for creating diverse river environments and spaces along rivers to meet functional needs. It was against this background that Japan’s River Law was amended in 1997 to include the goal of Fig. 2 A Tokyo river encased in concrete protecting and improving river environments. Since then, energetic efforts have been made and public works projects are being carried out to meet this new goal.

  • Typhoon Hagibis Strikes the Japanese Archipelago: What Happened Behind the Scenes As Japan’S Capital Narrowly Escaped Becoming Submerged
    SOCIETY Typhoon Hagibis strikes the Japanese Archipelago: What happened behind the scenes as Japan’s capital narrowly escaped becoming submerged The Arakawa River went above the dangerous water level at multiple points. Although Typhoon Hagibis (Typhoon 19) caused enormous damage to many parts of Japan in 2019, Tokyo saw no dikes collapse and escaped serious flood damage. We investigated the truth of what occurred behind the scenes during the Japanese capital’s escape from submersion, based on the reports of local government officials and flood control facilities. Asano Yuki and Sakurai Shun, Wedge editorial department In October 2019, Typhoon Hagibis brought record rainfall, mainly to Shizuoka Prefecture, the Kanto and Koshinetsu regions and the Tohoku region. Special heavy rain warnings were issued for a total of 13 prefectures, including Tokyo, with dikes breaking at 140 locations along 71 rivers (as of 6:00 AM on November 8), and many parts of the country were seriously damaged, including flooding. Even in this situation, although the levels of many rivers in Tokyo rose higher than usual, the dikes escaped damage. We investigated the truth of what happened behind the scenes to enable the capital to escape submersion. Discuss Japan—Japan Foreign Policy Forum No. 56 30% of the rainfall in the river basin was discharged through the discharge channel Looking back on the desperate situation he experienced when Typhoon Hagibis struck Japan on October 12, Hasegawa Yutaka, director of the Crisis-Management Division at the Katsushika City Office in Tokyo, said, “The water rose above the dangerous water level in the upper reaches of the Nakagawa River and the Ayase River, which run through Katsushika City, and we were in a very bad situation.

The 1923 Taisho Kanto Earthquake is a rare historical earthquake that can be reconstructed in detail because abun- dant datasets were collected by investigations performed just after the earthquake.
