We are pleased to be able to provide all our supporters with this THE PRESIDENT testimony of the discipline of our organization. At the same time, like an echo of this award, the teams in PN Cambodia As I write these words today, our society is undergoing a health and economic set up, for the first time, a very wide ranging operational and financial crisis of unusual intensity and unusual globality. Although the object of partnership with the Cambodian Ministry of Finance in the framework of the the exercise of writing an Annual Report is to highlight PN’s achievements “Skills Development Funds” program. A major success, and a further step in 2019, I cannot start this message without saying to you all, partners, towards financial security, which you know is for us a constant line of work. donors, volunteers, teams, students and alumni, that you are in my thoughts supporting you and in solidarity with you during these strange times. For this reason, and more globally, in 2019 we maintained rigorous management of our expenses and our resources. And I would like to thank Last year I announced the launch of a serious strategic reflection aimed all those, recent or already faithful supporters, donors, partners, volunteers at ensuring the longevity and relevance of our organization, and if it is and employees, who allowed us, through their financial, material or skilled appropriate to look at this strategic reflection in light of the pandemic which support, to make it possible for us to accomplish our mission every day. we are facing and its consequences on development issues, the reflections carried out in 2019 have lost none of their power. On the contrary. In the Already last year I shared with you my happiness in belonging to an section entitled « Perspectives », you can read about the ambitious projects ‘‘association which knows how to adapt to change”; whether it be home- we intend to implement. grown or exogenous, each year it requires our “agility” and our endurance. Qualities which will be particularly required in 2020. Not only because it will be Whilst concentrating on these goals, our teams have also shown that they are the year we implement our new strategic goals, but also, as we already know, able to implement their daily tasks and several tangible achievements have because it is the year of unprecedented upheavals in our operations, of our punctuated the year. teaching methods, our financial perspectives and our means of collaboration. We understand the stakes involved and the impact on families and the As you know, we are intent on our impact being tangible, efficient and aligned youngsters we support every day. with the Sustainable Development Goals to which we contribute: For this reason, we are ambitious and determined to contribute towards the - In 2019, we welcomed, grouping different years, 623 students, of which 57 provision of critical employability because it is being heckled in a world which % were girls. more than ever has become “digital”. - 129 students graduated and 92 % of them found jobs within two months.

Although our association is first and foremost concerned with our impact in the countries in which we operate, our longevity, and I think also, the recognition of our expertise and commitment, provide us with the opportunity of having a say and contributing to people’s key stakes. We are pleased to have been able to participate in various events in 2019 such as the Asia Women’s Forum in Singapore, or again an APEC conference on innovative skills for the future of inclusive work in Hanoi. We also organized a conference in Paris entitled: “The Blockchain Revolution: myth or reality?”. Michel Cantet, President -10- -11- PERSPECTIVES In our previous Annual Report, we announced the decision of PN’s Board of Directors to embark on a learning journey to adjust to the evolutions of our environment: ● Constant evolution of the Asian economic, social and educational environments ● Rapidly changing workplace environments. ● Shifting expectations towards the workforce in the IT and digital sector ● New educational alternatives for underserved youngsters, ● Funding challenges in a more “competitive” and “demanding” environment. Little did we know at the time that the world would soon be entering, early in 2020, into an unprecedented worldwide crisis, where the COVID 19 pandemic would accentuate the impact of digitalization in our current workplace and society, as well as the divide between those with access to TECH and/or digital literacy and those without. We cannot help looking back at 2019 with those insights in mind, and our strategic journey then suddenly takes on a different perspective and a greater urgency. In 2019, PN invested time, effort, resources, and the contributions of all of PN’s Stakeholders (Board Members Directors, Managers, Teams and NICOLA CROSTA Partners), supported by the assessment and the guidance of skilled experts CEO & FOUNDER, IMPACT46 and professionals, into analyzing our challenges and designing PN’s new goals. We have noted that, more than ever, technology is a steppingstone to My team and I work with world-class organizations in the philanthropic inclusion. PN has chosen to engage in a new dynamic to embrace this and non-profit sector. In 2019, we conducted a strategic review movement, with a broadened reach (targets and geography) to fill of Passerelles Numériques in order to assess the organization’s the gaps to inclusion for underserved youngsters. Not only do we want current Impact, Operations and Governance and provide strategic to enhance the relevance of our existing solutions in Asia, but we want recommendations for PN moving ahead in the future.

    5th Asian Law Institute Conference National University of Singapore, May 22 and 23, 2008 377 - and the unnatural afterlife of British colonialism Professor Douglas Sanders Chulalongkorn University, Mahidol University sanders_gwb @ yahoo.ca, May 6, 2008 Article 377 of the Indian Penal Code of 1860 made “carnal intercourse against the order of nature” an offence. This provision, or something very close to it, is presently in force in all former British colonies in Asia with the exception of Hong Kong. Even the article number, 377, is repeated in the current laws in force in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei - as if it were a special brand name, all of its own. Sri Lanka, Seychelles and Papua New Guinea have the key wording from article 377, but different section numbers. Parallel wording appears in the criminal laws of many of the former colonies in Africa. Surprisingly, viewing the matter from Asia, the 377 wording was never part of the criminal law in Britain. 377 is an amazingly successful law – if we judge it by its geographical spread and its longevity. Soon it will be 150 years old. How was it formulated? How did it come to apply in Asia? What is its role today? 2 First, we have to look back to the reign of Henry VIII and the break of the English church from Rome. I BACK TO BUGGERY British criminal laws covering homosexual acts began in 1534. Legislation in the reign of Henry VIII, prohibited …the detestable and abominable Vice of Buggery committed with mankind or beast.

  • Citation by the Provincial Government of South Sumatera
    CITATION BY THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT OF SOUTH SUMATERA South Sumatera Province, with Palembang as the capital city, needs an effective development strategy to boost its ecenomic growth especially in terms of driving investments. Aside from the conservative approach which derives from the Long Term and Middle Term National Development Plan that focusing on pro poor – pro job – pro growth strategy, the Provincial Government of South Sumatera sets a more detailed and comprehensive development strategy in which sports is used as its foundation. The main strategy is to develop an integrated sports complex which has all the necessary components for hosting international multi sports events; such as competition venues, non-competition venues (athletes’ village with dining hall and sports science center), equipped with supporting infrastructures (water supply, solid waste treatment facility, and green open spaces). Eventually, the infrastructure needed will not only be built on the sports complex, but also in Palembang greater area, mostly regarding the transportation system that will support access for human and logistic to the sports complex. These infrastructures construction that were believed to be the engine to enhance economic growth in terms of driving investments. The development that later known as Jakabaring Sport City (JSC) stands on a 360 Ha of Provincial Government estate in which it not only plays the role as sports, education, and entertainment complex, but also as the water catchment area for Jakabaring district in Palembang with its artificial lake of 48 Ha. The massive development of the complex started on September 2011 after South Sumatera has been appointed as the host for the 26th South East Asian (SEA) Games 2011 together with Jakarta, the capital of the Republic of Indonesia.

Behind this stated objective, constant hard work is being conducted on the ground – men and women through their love of sport and devotion to the Paralympic Movement use resources available to bring Paralympic Sport to life across the five continents. Without them, ParalympicS port would simply not exist. This commitment ultimately drives the continual evolution of National Paralympic Committees (NPC) and the growing events calendar. The popularity and development of Paralympic Sport now more than ever depends on the ability of our NPCs to develop and deliver quality training and competition opportunities for their athletes. For this reason, the IPC is providing managers and administrators the means which allow them to accomplish their work in the best manner possible. This Paralympic Administration Manual is a further demonstration of the IPC’s commitment in providing the Paralympic Movement with the resources needed to accomplish their goals. You will find it an extremely useful tool in developing Paralympic Sport in your region and country. This publication was made possible through funding from the German Ministry of the Interior, and adds to a wide range of programmes developed in partnership with the IPC Academy. It will contribute to raising the general quality of NPCs and Paralympic events, and will assist the growth of Paralympic Sport at all levels.

The data were analysed descriptively, and the T-test used to establish significant differences between the players. Overall, there was a significant difference in agility between the indoor and beach players (f=7.60, p<0.01), where the beach volleyball players were reported to be more agile. In addition, a significant difference was also reported for leg power between male indoor and beach volleyball players (f=1.47, p>0.24) – the beach players being stronger in term of leg power.
