    Building Disaster and Climate Resilient Cities in ASEAN Draft Finnal Report APPENDIX 8: DAMAGES CAUSED BY NATURAL DISASTERS A8.1 Flood & Typhoon Table A8.1.1 Record of Flood & Typhoon (Cambodia) Place Date Damage Cambodia Flood Aug 1999 The flash floods, triggered by torrential rains during the first week of August, caused significant damage in the provinces of Sihanoukville, Koh Kong and Kam Pot. As of 10 August, four people were killed, some 8,000 people were left homeless, and 200 meters of railroads were washed away. More than 12,000 hectares of rice paddies were flooded in Kam Pot province alone. Floods Nov 1999 Continued torrential rains during October and early November caused flash floods and affected five southern provinces: Takeo, Kandal, Kampong Speu, Phnom Penh Municipality and Pursat. The report indicates that the floods affected 21,334 families and around 9,900 ha of rice field. IFRC's situation report dated 9 November stated that 3,561 houses are damaged/destroyed. So far, there has been no report of casualties. Flood Aug 2000 The second floods has caused serious damages on provinces in the North, the East and the South, especially in Takeo Province. Three provinces along Mekong River (Stung Treng, Kratie and Kompong Cham) and Municipality of Phnom Penh have declared the state of emergency. 121,000 families have been affected, more than 170 people were killed, and some $10 million in rice crops has been destroyed. Immediate needs include food, shelter, and the repair or replacement of homes, household items, and sanitation facilities as water levels in the Delta continue to fall.

  • China: Solidarity Under a Song What a Strike Tells Us*
    Copyright © 2013 by Feng Xiang 《团结在国歌之下》 China: Solidarity Under a Song What a Strike Tells Us* Feng Xiang** Abstract The right of solidarity has been in legal limbo in China for decades. But in recent years an increasing number of strikes ended in collective negotiation, mediated by government, congressional and trade union officials, instead of the familiar story of arrests and prosecution. This article argues that these changes cannot be adequately explained by the “unseen hand” of the market, the policy of urbanization or better networking technology. Rather, they are essentially due to a conscious effort on the part of strikers to re-politicize their walkout, whereby to overcome barriers of the “rule of law” and revert what the law defines as contractual employment disputes to their original status: the breaking, repair and reorganization of the Party-masses relationship. The solidarity thus regained is not a lawful right, but an avatar of justified power, authority and even people’s sovereignty, all captured by a single Chinese character, “quan”. Key words: solidarity; right to strike; trade union; “quan” as power/authority/sovereignty/right; the PRC constitutions. Let’s build a new Great Wall May 17, 2010, Monday. Early in the morning, Tan Guocheng came to his shift at the Honda factory of Nanhai District, Foshan City in Guangdong Province. Tan was a 24 year old “migrant worker” from Hunan, a neighboring province; and the factory, commonly known as Honda Nanhai, manufactured automobile parts. But that morning Tan did not turn on the machine. Instead he pushed a red emergency button nearby.
