The Geological Mapping and Mineral Information No. MINISTRY OF ENERGY AND MINES THE LAO PEOPLE’S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC THE GEOLOGICAL MAPPING AND MINERAL INFORMATION SERVICE PROJECT FOR PROMOTION OF MINING INDUSTRY IN THE LAO PEOPLE’S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC FINAL REPORT Volume II : Main Report October 2008 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY MITSUBISHI MATERIALS TECHNO CORPORATION KOKUSAI KOGYO CO., LTD. IL JR 08-042 PREFACE In response to a request from the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic, the Government of Japan decided to conduct a study on ³The Geological Mapping and Mineral Information Service Project for Promotion of Mining Industry in the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic´ and entrusted to the study to the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). JICA selected and dispatched a study team headed by Mr. Yoshiaki Shibata of Mitsubishi Materials Techno Corporation and consists of experts from Mitsubishi Materials Techno Corporation and Kokusai Kogyo Co., Ltd. between March 2006 and October 2008. The study team conducted field surveys in the study area and held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic. This final report was completed in October 2008. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of mining development in the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic and to the enhancement of friendly relationship between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned of the Government of the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic for their close cooperation extended to the study. Mr. Seiich Nagatsuka Vice President Japan International Cooperation Agency October 2008 October 2008 Mr. Seiich Nagatsuka Vice President Japan International Cooperation Agency Tokyo, Japan Letter of Transmittal Dear Sir, We are pleased to submit herewith a final report of ³The Geological Mapping and Mineral Information Service Project for Promotion of Mining Industry in the Lao Peoples Democratic Republic´. In Lao PDR, potentials of mineral resources such as gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc are expected to be very high. Mining development of these mineral resources can earn foreign currency income in future. However, mining investment has not been active for mineral potentials because information of domestic mineral resources and investment climate are not prepared well enough. In order to accelerate investment in mining of Lao PDR, the study team and Laotian counterparts prepared information of geology and mineral resource of LAO PDR and disseminated the prepared information domestically and internationally during the project term from March 2006 to October 2008. Capacity development of Department of Mines and Department of Geology of the Ministry of Energy and Mines was also implemented at the same time during the project period. The team hopes the information prepared by the Project will be utilized for mineral exploration and development in future and engineers trained by the project will contribute further to enhancement of institutional capacity. We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to the people of Lao PDR for their active participation in the study, especially the Ministry of Energy and Mines, the Department of Mines and the Department of Geology. We also deeply indebted to the officials of JICA, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of Japan in Lao PDR, and the JICA office in Lao PDR for their continuous support throughout the Project. Finally, we hope that our outputs will contribute to development of mining sector of Lao PDR and to fostering a long-lasting partnership and friendship between Japan and Lao PDR.

A study was carried out in four malaria-endemic villages in Attapeu Province, in the southern region of Lao PDR. All-night human landing collections were carried out in May, August, and October 2002, to determine malaria vectors. At the same time, mass blood surveys were also carried out in the same villages. Anopheles dirus was the predominant species in three of the study villages. Sporozoites were found only in An. drius from Phou Hom. However, in Beng Phoukham, An. dirus was positive for oocysts. The distribution of malaria cases was highest in Phou Hom and this correlated well with the vectorial capacity of An. dirus. The risk for infection from An. dirus was also high, at 0.99. INTRODUCTION Mekong Region.

The typhoon caused severe damage and losses to the basic infrastructure, especially to productive areas, the irrigation system, roads and bridges, hospitals, and schools. Further, the typhoon disrupted the local people’s livelihoods, assets and properties. The poor and vulnerable groups of people are most affected by the typhoon. Without immediate recovery efforts, its consequences will gravely compromise the development efforts undertaken so far by the government, seriously set back economic dynamism, and further jeopardise the already very precarious situation in some of the provinces that were hard hit by the typhoon. A Joint Damage, Losses and Needs Assessment (JDLNA) was undertaken, with field visit to the four most affected provinces from 25th July to 5th August 2011.

NAM HA ECOTOURISM PROJECT Lao People’s Democratic Republic Equator Initiative Case Studies Local sustainable development solutions for people, nature, and resilient communities UNDP EQUATOR INITIATIVE CASE STUDY SERIES Local and indigenous communities across the world are advancing innovative sustainable development solutions that work for people and for nature. Few publications or case studies tell the full story of how such initiatives evolve, the breadth of their impacts, or how they change over time. Fewer still have undertaken to tell these stories with community practitioners themselves guiding the narrative. To mark its 10-year anniversary, the Equator Initiative aims to fill this gap. The following case study is one in a growing series that details the work of Equator Prize winners – vetted and peer-reviewed best practices in community-based environmental conservation and sustainable livelihoods. These cases are intended to inspire the policy dialogue needed to take local success to scale, to improve the global knowledge base on local environment and development solutions, and to serve as models for replication. Case studies are best viewed and understood with reference to ‘The Power of Local Action: Lessons from 10 Years of the Equator Prize’, a compendium of lessons learned and policy guidance that draws from the case material.
