Energy Investment Outlook for the Apec Region ASIA PACIFIC ENERGY RESEARCH CENTRE ENERGY INVESTMENT OUTLOOK FOR THE APEC REGION 2003 Published by Asia Pacific Energy Research Centre Institute of Energy Economics, Japan Inui Bldg.-Kachidoki 16F, 1-13-1 Kachidoki Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0054 Japan Tel: (813) 5144-8551 Fax: (813) 5144-8555 Email: [email protected] (administration) ã 2003 Asia Pacific Energy Research Centre APEC#203-RE-01.5 ISBN 4-931482-24-4 Printed in Japan PAGE II FOREWORD APEC economies are increasingly concerned about the adequacy and reliability of energy supplies as their needs for energy expands. Timely investment in energy production facilities and transportation infrastructure is essential to ensure that energy remains steadily available to fuel economic growth. Thus, a study of energy investment requirements, the ability of economies to meet these requirements and policies to promote required investment should be of broad interest across the APEC region. This report estimates future investment requirements for each major energy sector and every APEC economy, building upon information developed in the APEC Energy Demand and Supply Outlook 2002. It also assesses the burden of energy investment relative to economic output over time as economies develop. Further, it examines the principal factors affecting the adequacy of energy investment and suggests ways for APEC members to ensure that energy investment requirements continue to be met. This report is published by APERC as an independent study and does not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the APEC Energy Working Group or individual member economies. But we hope that it will serve as a useful basis for discussion and analysis both within and among APEC member economies for the promotion of investment in the energy sector. Masaharu Fujitomi President Asia Pacific Energy Research Centre PAGE III ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Juan Ramón Mota Aguilar and Naok o Doi were the project co-leaders: the former was responsible for estimation of energy investment requirements including modelling, while the latter was responsible for analysis on issues relevant to energy investment including historical trends and financing. Yonghun Jung provided overall guidance and valuable insights on the study directions. Jeffrey Skeer greatly contributed to writing of the draft report. We would like to thank all of those who contributed to this study, which could not have been successfully completed without the hard work and inspiration of many individuals. Especially valuable advice and insights were received from a number of energy experts worldwide , including J. Phil Prince (Canadian Energy Research Institute), Aya Yamazaki (Japan Bank for International Cooperation), Fatih Birol (International Energy Agency), Neil Davis (Energy Information Administration, US Department of Energy) and Gordon Kwan (HSBC Securities). We would also like to thank members of the APEC Energy Working Group (EWG), APEC Expert Group on Energy Data and Analysis (EGEDA), and APERC Advisory Board, along with a list of experts in the APEC region , including Edito S. Barcelona (The Philippines Department of Energy), Keii Cho (Institute of Energy Economics, Japan), Jesus T. Tamang (The Philippines Department of Energy), Vu Van Thai (Ministry of Industry, Viet Nam) and Zhongan Wang (China National Offshore Oil Corp.) for their stimulating comments and current information.

LaTrobe University, Melbourne espite the competitive nature of journalism, foreign D correspondents have found they have a need to come together around their common interests. Moreover correspondents reporting for a home audience often require a space where they can establish a common ground with officials and news sources, where news events are packaged specifically for the benefit of transmission overseas. Generally journalists also find that a place where they can be involved in an informal sharing of information, contacts and discussion of recent events is often essential in a country where they are unfamiliar with the language. For these reasons foreign correspondent clubs have become important sites for the correspondent to affirm and develop their professional identities. In Asia the first formal foreign correspondent clubs were established in Tokyo in 1945 and soon after in Hong Kong. The history of the clubs can be traced to the fact to ‘cantonments’ for journalists that were established in hotels or boarding houses during military operations a practice that continued in World War II in Asia particularly.

    MWC Article Media, War & Conflict Media images of war 3(1) 7–41 © The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: sagepub. co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1750635210356813 Michael Griffin http://mwc.sagepub.com Macalester College, Saint Paul, MN, USA Abstract Photographic images of war have been used to accentuate and lend authority to war reporting since the early 20th century, with depictions in 1930s picture magazines of the Spanish Civil War prompting unprecedented expectations for frontline visual coverage. By the 1960s, Vietnam War coverage came to be associated with personal, independent and uncensored reporting and image making, seen as a journalistic ideal by some, and an obstacle to successful government conduct of the war by others. This article considers the idealized ‘myth’ of Vietnam War coverage and how it has influenced print and television photojournalism of American conflicts, skewing expectations of wartime media performance and fostering a consistent pattern of US Government/media collaboration. Upon analysis, pictorial coverage of US wars by the American media not only fails to live up to the myth of Vietnam but tends to be compliant and nationalist. It fails to reflect popular ideals of independent and critical photojournalism, or even the willingness to depict the realities of war. Keywords documentary, Gulf War, Iraq War, journalism, news, photography, photojournalism, television, television news, Vietnam War, visual communication, visual culture, war, war photography Media representations of war are of interest to media scholars for many reasons. First, as reports or images associated with extreme conflict and matters of life and death, they tend to draw intense public attention, and potentially influence public opinion.

  • Analysis and Forecast to 2024 Gas 2019 Analysis and Forecast to 2024 Gas Market Report 2019 Foreword
    Gas 2019 Analysis and forecast to 2024 Gas 2019 Analysis and forecast to 2024 Gas Market Report 2019 Foreword Foreword In 2018, natural gas played a major role in a remarkable year for energy. Global energy consumption rose at its fastest pace this decade, with natural gas accounting for 45% of the increase, more than any other fuel. Natural gas helped to reduce air pollution and limit the rise in energy-related CO2 emissions by displacing coal and oil in power generation, heating and industrial uses. The global gas narrative varies across regions: cheap and abundant resources in North America; a key contributor to reducing air pollution in the People’s Republic of China; a main feedstock and fuel for industry in emerging Asia; challenged by renewables in Europe; an emerging fuel in Africa and South America. What ties these together is the central position of gas in the global energy mix as one of the key enablers of the energy transition. Natural gas can be part of the solution to a cleaner energy path – both on land and at sea as an alternative marine fuel – but it faces its own challenges. They include ensuring price competitiveness in developing economies, guaranteeing security of supply in increasingly interdependent markets, and continuing the reduction of its environmental footprint, particularly in terms of methane emissions. Natural gas is at the heart of three core areas for the IEA: energy security, clean energy and opening to emerging economies. I hope that this latest edition of the IEA’s outlook for gas markets will help enhance market transparency and enable stakeholders to better understand current and future developments.

The impact of COVID-19 means that this year’s perspective is gloomier. Over the summer we initiated a redundancy programme for our non-academic staff in response to the financial impact and the operational consequences of the pandemic. We also spent a great deal of time planning for the return of students for Michaelmas Term with as much attention to sustaining the positive aspects of their experience as public health restrictions will allow. Unsurprisingly there is an atmosphere of uncertainty about how the external context will influence what happens. We recognise that we are unlikely to see a full return to anything like our previous normality in the course of this academic year. However, I do need to record changes in the Fellowship in the usual way.
