  • 6 Infrastructure Development in Lao
    Chapter 6 Infrastructure Development in Lao PDR Syviengxay Oraboune National Economic Research Institute March 2008 This chapter should be cited as Oraboune, S. (2008), ‘Infrastructure Development in Lao PDR’, in Kumar, N. (ed.), International Infrastructure Development in East Asia – Towards Balanced Regional Development and Integration , ERIA Research Project Report 2007-2, Chiba: IDE-JETRO, pp.166-203. Chapter 6: Infrastructure Development in Lao PDR Syviengxay Oraboune Abstract Being a land-locked country with poor infrastructure has put a constraint to the socio-economic development of Lao PDR. In view of this, the Government of Lao PDR has introduced a “land-linked” strategy parallel to regional and sub-regional infrastructure development trends, especially in the frameworks of, among others, the ASEAN, Greater Mekong Sub-region, and Triangle Development Area. The strategy addresses the importance of infrastructure development, particularly the road/transport sector, as the means to achieve the 2020 vision for the country to graduate from the list of less developed countries (LDCs) and to eradicate mass poverty by 2010. Infrastructure development has been identified as significant both for poverty reduction and private sector development because of the following reasons. One, focusing on farm-to-market road construction with proper mechanism to link rural farmers to the growing demand within the country and in the region is significant for poverty reduction. Two, improvement of logistic infrastructure, particularly factory-to-port transportation, is critical in enhancing business performance, export development and economic growth. And three, widening choices for logistic transportation in the longer term of the infrastructure development strategy of the country will greatly boost growth and assist in the poverty reduction program.

  • Philippines and Japan, Edited by Kiichi Fujiwara and Yoshiko Nagano, Manila, Anvil Publishing, 2012, 354 Pp., ISBN 978-971-27-2765-8
    Philippine Political Science Journal 117 America’s Informal Empires: Philippines and Japan, edited by Kiichi Fujiwara and Yoshiko Nagano, Manila, Anvil Publishing, 2012, 354 pp., ISBN 978-971-27-2765-8 In recent times, very few books may be deemed to be important to both fields of Philippine and Japanese studies. For its declared comparative perspective, this book is one of them. Indeed, the comparability of the Philippines and Japan cannot be ignored: both fought wars with the US; both saw defeat; both became grounds for “democratic” experiments in governance; both became client states with collaborating conservative elites, and both became (and continue to exist as) geopolitical nodes in the US network of military bases and arrangements propping up a particularly US-centered world order (via the Mutual Defense Treaty in the Philippines and the US-Japan Security Treaty in Japan). No other polity in Asia has received as much influence from the US compared to these two. Alas, Japanese scholars often compare aspects of their political system with those of Europe, and the Philippines with those of either Asia or Latin America. This book promises to give some redress to this vacuum in knowledge production. Kiichi Fujiwara’s introductory chapter starts with a discussion of the practice of the geopolitical game of colonialism by two so-called “latecomers”: the US and Japan. Beyond this common point defined by time, the two powers significantly differed in their strategies of empire. As Fujiwara notes, Japan went the way of territorial expansion appealing to notions of “common culture (dobun) and nationality (doshu)” which are essential elements of the strategy of “pan-nationalism”, (11) while the US opted for what may be interpreted as indirect rule via the so-called “liberal and informal empire” (12).

  • TAIWAN: SOVEREIGNTY and PARTICIPATION in INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS by Jacques Delisle
    Foreign Policy Research Institute E-Notes A Catalyst for Ideas Distributed via Email and Posted at www.fpri.org July 2011 TAIWAN: SOVEREIGNTY AND PARTICIPATION IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS By Jacques deLisle Jacques deLisle is Director of FPRI’s Asia Program and Stephen A. Cozen Professor of Law and Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. This essay is a revised version of a presentation at The Brookings Institution’s Center for Northeast Asian Policy Studies, in Washington, D.C., on March 14, 2011. STATEHOOD? The question of Taiwan's sovereignty and status generally evokes three strands of discussion. First, does Taiwan meet the criteria for statehood or something very close to statehood in the international system—and specifically in international law? Here the locus classicus is a dusty old document called the Montevideo Convention that states what most people consider to be the standard under customary international law. What does it take to be a state? According to the Convention, there are four criteria. A state must have a distinct and substantial territory. Taiwan, of course is an island (with a few small offshore islands), and there are few better geographical arrangements than a good-sized island (roughly 23,000 square kilometers, smaller than most countries but larger than dozens) for meeting the “territory” criterion. A state also must have a distinct and substantial population. In Taiwan’s case, the population of approximately 23 million people (ranking around fiftieth in the world), without a lot of immigration or emigration, offers a solid prima facie case for satisfying the “population” criterion.
