  • South China Sea Overview
    ‹ Countries South China Sea Last Updated: February 7, 2013 (Notes) full report Overview The South China Sea is a critical world trade route and a potential source of hydrocarbons, particularly natural gas, with competing claims of ownership over the sea and its resources. Stretching from Singapore and the Strait of Malacca in the southwest to the Strait of Taiwan in the northeast, the South China Sea is one of the most important trade routes in the world. The sea is rich in resources and holds significant strategic and political importance. The area includes several hundred small islands, rocks, and reefs, with the majority located in the Paracel and Spratly Island chains. Many of these islands are partially submerged land masses unsuitable for habitation and are little more than shipping hazards. For example, the total land area of the Spratly Islands encompasses less than 3 square miles. Several of the countries bordering the sea declare ownership of the islands to claim the surrounding sea and its resources. The Gulf of Thailand borders the South China Sea, and although technically not part of it, disputes surround ownership of that Gulf and its resources as well. Asia's robust economic growth boosts demand for energy in the region. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects total liquid fuels consumption in Asian countries outside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to rise at an annual growth rate of 2.6 percent, growing from around 20 percent of world consumption in 2008 to over 30 percent of world consumption by 2035. Similarly, non-OECD Asia natural gas consumption grows by 3.9 percent annually, from 10 percent of world gas consumption in 2008 to 19 percent by 2035.

The project aimed to identify current Indonesian regulatory frameworks/policies and analyse their implications for mining, Corporate Social Responsibility and community development and empowerment. For further information on this action research: Contact person: Bernadetta Devi [email protected] Summary of Action Research Activity Mining and development in Indonesia: an overview of the regulatory framework and policies The mineral resources sector plays a vital role in the Indonesian economy. Mining contributes approximately five percent of the total Indonesian Gross Domestic Product and a much greater share within the regional economies of some resource-rich provinces. The industry has attracted many investors, including ‘newcomers’ from China, India, Russia and South Korea. Indonesian civil society (and specifically local communities) is demanding that mining companies recognise their ‘local rights’, which sometimes leads to conflict between companies and local communities. This project provided an overview of the history of mining legislation and policies in Indonesia and an analysis of the current legislation and its impact within the mining industry. Seven key points were noted and expanded for consideration by policy makers, private enterprise and other stakeholders, to assist mining and development within Indonesia: 1.

Around the world, large-scale metals mining takes an enormous toll on the health of the environment and communities. Gold mining, in particular, is one of the dirtiest industries in the world. Massive open-pit mines, some measuring as much as two miles (3.2 kilometers) across, generate staggering quantities of waste—an average of 76 tons for every ounce of gold.1 In the US, metals mining is the leading contributor of toxic emissions to the environment.2 And in countries such as Ghana, Romania, and the Philippines, mining has also been associated with human rights violations, the displacement of people from their homes, and the disruption of traditional livelihoods.
