  • Integrated Strategic Plan Needed to Help Restore Iraq's Oil and Electricity Sectors
    United States Government Accountability Office Report to Congressional Committees GAO May 2007 REBUILDING IRAQ Integrated Strategic Plan Needed to Help Restore Iraq’s Oil and Electricity Sectors On June 22, 2007, the Web version of this report was reissued to reflect changes to enemy-initiated attack data provided by the Defense Intelligence Agency. On June 13, 2007, DIA notified GAO that its April 2007 attack data were incorrect because it had excluded attacks from a new subordinate command established on April 1, 2007. According to DIA, Multi-National Division-Center did not properly forward its April attack data because of inadequate reporting procedures; it has since corrected the problem. Accordingly, enemy attacks in April totaled approximately 4,900 rather than the 4,500 previously reported (see page 34). We also revised the corresponding narrative to show the average number of daily attacks increasing from 157 in March 2007 to 163 in April 2007 (see page 33).

  • Working Group on Infrastructure Finance in Iraq, Meeting 1
    REINFORCING INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT IN IRAQ Third Meeting of the Working Group on Infrastructure Finance in Iraq Agenda Organized by the MENA-OECD INVESTMENT PROGRAMME 4-5 November 2010 OECD Headquarters Room D Paris, France Opportunities for Infrastructure Finance in Iraq Despite significant advances in many areas of infrastructure in Iraq, for example, electricity, roads, bridges, rail lines, airports, provision of potable water, and communications, much still remains to be undertaken. It is important for the Government of Iraq (GOI) to increase its ability to deliver basic services given that the Iraqi population is on a considerable growth trajectory, there are increased expectations of a higher standard of living, and there is a need to accommodate economic growth. Responding to these needs will demand considerable strengthening of infrastructure. Funding for infrastructure1 from outside sources has decreased or been depleted and the GOI has seen a leveling off in available budgetary funds for investment in the past few years. The major source of GOI revenue is oil sales, and in recent years oil prices have declined while Iraqi production has not seen a discernible increase. Overall annual budgetary funds have been reduced, and funds specifically available for infrastructure investment have decreased disproportionately. Recent production contracts should increase oil production and GOI revenues, but this is projected to take considerable time. Given the shift in the origin of funds toward internal sources, the decline in those

The conference followed from the initiative taken at the 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg and also builds up on the initiatives taken in various IRECs held in Bonn (Renewables 2004), Beijing (BIREC 2005) and Washington (WIREC 2008) to highlight the significance of renewable energy. DIREC 2010 was an effort to provide an important forum for international discourse on renewable energy. Accordingly, the conference was carefully divided into four major themes - Technology & Infrastructure, Policy, Finance and Renewable, Access & MDGs. The overwhelming response received from the international community reiterated the significance of ‘Up scaling and Mainstreaming Renewables for Energy Security, Climate Change and Economic Development’, which was also the theme of the conference. It also showcased that the strides made in this sector have surpassed predictions.

  • Section2 Initiatives to Capture Markets(PDF:1009KB)
    Section 2 Initiatives to capture markets 1.The emerging countries strategy With the relative size of Japan’s market shrinking compared to the global market, the importance of expanding into emerging economies is growing. Capturing demand in emerging economies is necessary in order to both enable Japanese companies to tap into growing worldwide demand and channel that wealth back into Japan and promote exports of goods and procurement of components and materials from Japan. Nevertheless, while there is a tendency to use the generic term “emerging economies”, the fact is that the situations differ from one region to another in terms of such matters as their degree of economic development, the extent of expansion into those regions by Japanese companies, and the competitive environment with companies from other countries. To tap into the growth of emerging economies to the greatest possible extent, it is necessary to promote strategic initiatives based on an understanding of the situation in each emerging economy. (1) Policies and progress in each region Until now, market analysis has been conducted according to the classification of markets into the following three groups based on the Japan Revitalization Strategy 2013 (decided by the Cabinet in June 2013). (i) In China and ASEAN, Japanese companies have already established industrial clusters and supply chains on a substantial scale, thus the government has aimed to further tap into demand there through broader industrial expansion (“full expansion”) in consideration of the growth of consumer markets. (ii) In Southwest Asia, the Middle East, Russia/CIS, and Latin America, Japanese companies have lagged behind their U.S.
