Abstract:

China's industrial policy for high-technology industries combines key features of the policies pursued elsewhere in East Asia such as opening to foreign investors and supporting domestic firms. Leveraging its large market size, China has gone further than other developing countries by promoting standards for products that compete in China with products controlled by major electronics companies. This paper analyzes the experience to date of this Chinese policy in the consumer optical storage industry in the context of China's evolving national innovation system. China's standard-setting policy is politicized but ultimately pragmatic, which avoids imposing excessive costs on the economy. It may also have dynamic learning benefits for Chinese firms who are starting to compete in global markets.

Abstract:

Many of today's high growth and high value-added businesses are concentrated in the knowledge- and innovation-based industries of information technology, telecommunications, biotechnology, media, software and entertainment. Though the governments of Hong Kong, Singapore & Taiwan (Asian NIEs) have invested heavily in promoting these sectors, they have largely failed to produce internationally competitive firms. We argue that government-led initiatives that were appropriate for economies in the investment-driven stage of industrialisation need to be reformed. As some economic sectors approach the technology frontier, diverse financing arrangements are needed to direct capital to high technology start-ups. To complement existing government-related technology initiatives, a more varied financial infrastructure must be developed.

Abstract:

It is critical for manufacturing sectors to improve maximum performance to foster a competitive advantage. This article aims to analyze how the manufacturing industry can promote its performance to achieve sustainable development. We embark performance evaluation on Taiwanese manufacturing sectors which have profound implications in the global manufacturing supply chain. This study collected public information and reliable data from the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) covering 12 Taiwanese manufacturing industries. Performance evaluation indicators consist of four inputs chosen from a set of six items, whereas one output is from a set of three items. The analysis from Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is conducted including CCR (Charnes, Cooper, & Rhodes) efficiency, BCC (Banker et al.) efficiency, A&P(Andersen and Petersen) efficiency, cross-efficiency and D&G(Doyle and Green) efficiency plus the VIKOR prioritization method to evaluate the 12 manufacturing industries in Taiwan. The comprehensive analysis and comparison results of this study show the sophisticated outcomes through the analysis of DEA and VIKOR. In another objective evaluation, the efficiency of DEA proves a certain correlation between the model and the measurement of the VIKOR method. The results indicate that Taiwan’s manufacturing industry is moving towards design innovation thinking towards the high value of its own brand, whereas the industries in China and South East Asia appear different. The results can provide the best practice to allow the international manufacturing industry to enjoy a resurgence after falling output and diminishing labor force.

Abstract:

Beyond Late Development offers economist Alice Amsden's most recent contribution (here with co-author Wan-wen Chu) to an already substantial body of work on East Asian political economy. Like her previous work, this book is important first because it trespasses the traditional boundaries of economics, seeking explanations to important developmental policy puzzles from institutional theories and empirical case studies more commonly the province of sociologists and area specialists; and second because it looks beyond Asia's mega-economies to the relatively smaller but still highly relevant late developers of Asia, offering important lessons for both students and practitioners of development policy.Amsden and Chu seek to explain the ability of advanced “latecomer” countries to sustain their global competitiveness in mature high-technology manufacturing and newly-liberalized service industries. They support their argument with previously unpublished data and extensive firm-level interviews from Taiwan, the most successful of these successful latecomers, which Amsden identified in an earlier book, The Rise of “The Rest”(Oxford University Press, 2001). Although Taiwan's leading national firms seldom make the Fortune 500 list, they dominate global market share for many mature, information technology (IT) manufactures. As of 1999, Taiwan produced 85 per cent of the world's scanners, nearly two-thirds of the world's keyboards, power supplies and monitors, and almost 40 per cent of all notebook computers.

Abstract:

This study estimates and compares carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of three East Asian countries; China, Japan and South Korea by using the well-known input-output model. The differences in CO2 emissions between countries are then analyzed by a decomposition method. The sources of differences in CO2 emissions are attributed to various factors such as different fuel efficiency, production techniques, consumption patterns and the size of the economy. It is argued that an industrial sector with high total emission intensity (TEI) can reduce pollution at lower cost than others with low TEI, assuming that the reduction in emissions entails reduction in output. In this connection, China provides a challenging case for a potential regional joint effort towards the CO2 reduction, because her emissions are shown to be the largest, both in the absolute term and in terms of average TEI.

Abstract:

Since the 1950s, Pakistan has been trying to industrialize by investing in industries that have low value-added, notably cotton textiles. Here, low value-added means that the export value of the cotton textiles less the value of the raw cotton used to make them was low relative to the cost of the investment needed to make the textiles, i.e., contrary to the usual assumption, cotton textile manufacture was capital-intensive. The cause was the protection of the importing countries. But goods with high value-added in this sense required advanced technical knowledge, which is mostly the proprietary knowledge of the firms whose research and development (R&D) has generated it. Over time, all the production of goods that do not require such technical knowledge has passed to low-wage countries whose mutual competition keeps the value-added low. Since Pakistan cannot compete in high-value-added goods, it must emulate the East Asian economies by collaborating with firms in high-wage countries—i.e., subcontracting them to make simple components—and progress through such collaboration to receiving the knowledge and training to making components with higher value-added.

Abstract:

Abstract. The Paris agreement aims to hold global warming to well below 2 ∘C and to pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5 ∘C relative to the pre-industrial period. Recent estimates based on population growth and intended carbon emissions from participant countries suggest global warming may exceed this ambitious target. Here we present glacier volume projections for the end of this century, under a range of high-end climate change scenarios, defined as exceeding +2 ∘C global average warming relative to the pre-industrial period. Glacier volume is modelled by developing an elevation-dependent mass balance model for the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES). To do this, we modify JULES to include glaciated and unglaciated surfaces that can exist at multiple heights within a single grid box. Present-day mass balance is calibrated by tuning albedo, wind speed, precipitation, and temperature lapse rates to obtain the best agreement with observed mass balance profiles. JULES is forced with an ensemble of six Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) models, which were downscaled using the high-resolution HadGEM3-A atmosphere-only global climate model. The CMIP5 models use the RCP8.5 climate change scenario and were selected on the criteria of passing 2 ∘C global average warming during this century. The ensemble mean volume loss at the end of the century plus or minus 1 standard deviation is -64±5 % for all glaciers excluding those on the peripheral of the Antarctic ice sheet. The uncertainty in the multi-model mean is rather small and caused by the sensitivity of HadGEM3-A to the boundary conditions supplied by the CMIP5 models. The regions which lose more than 75 % of their initial volume by the end of the century are Alaska, western Canada and the US, Iceland, Scandinavia, the Russian Arctic, central Europe, Caucasus, high-mountain Asia, low latitudes, southern Andes, and New Zealand. The ensemble mean ice loss expressed in sea level equivalent contribution is 215.2±21.3 mm. The largest contributors to sea level rise are Alaska (44.6±1.1 mm), Arctic Canada north and south (34.9±3.0 mm), the Russian Arctic (33.3±4.8 mm), Greenland (20.1±4.4), high-mountain Asia (combined central Asia, South Asia east and west), (18.0±0.8 mm), southern Andes (14.4±0.1 mm), and Svalbard (17.0±4.6 mm). Including parametric uncertainty in the calibrated mass balance parameters gives an upper bound global volume loss of 281.1 mm of sea level equivalent by the end of the century. Such large ice losses will have inevitable consequences for sea level rise and for water supply in glacier-fed river systems.

AbstractConsumers the world over are becoming more homogeneous thanks to the unifying forces of travel, media, technology, information transfer and the like. Furthermore, today customers have higher expectations than ever before regarding the quality of service they should receive from a wide range of service organisations (professional as well as non-professional). As customers are increasingly exposed to world best practice in a wide range of service industries, expectations spiral upwards. Slow, discourteous, unresponsive and unprofessional service will no longer be tolerated - but especially when the service is highly customised, complex, costly and high involvement, professional service.Few, if any, studies have examined service quality issues for professional services in an international context. Hence, this case study documents the problems experienced by the Australian Trade Commission's (Austrade) Bangkok, Thailand Post in providing a level of service consistent with clients' (and senior managements') expectations, the steps taken to overcome these long standing service quality shortcomings, as well as the key lessons to be learnt from the process. Today Austrade provides a professional consulting service and thus possesses similar characteristics to many professional service firms (project management, engineering consulting, general management consulting, etc.) and thus the lessons from this successful change management program may be generalisable to other professional services. Furthermore, the lessons should prove invaluable for Australian firms operating in South-East Asia staffed by expatriates and local nationals.

Abstract:

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic took high-income countries entirely by surprise. Despite funding pandemic preparedness programs in Asia for more than 20 years, donor countries had not experienced an uncontrolled pandemic since HIV in the 1980s. When Ebola, Zika, SARS, and MERS threatened, countries outside the immediate geographic neighborhood or income level of those diseases’ places of origin were left largely untouched. In contrast to the swift, comprehensive response of South-East Asian countries, authorities in Europe and the United States assumed this coronavirus would behave like its predecessors SARS and MERS.What happened next around the world was both harrowing and illuminating. Lacking protective material resources, the human capacity for contact tracing or understanding of the disease, policymakers in higher-income countries turned to technology for a miracle. The technology sector responded with history’s most extensive hackathon, illuminating the mutual shaping of technology and public health policy. The most striking feature of the technological response to the pandemic has been the degree of what Morozov has called solutionism driving it—the belief that complex problems can be solved by technological intervention alone.

Abstract:

How might governments in East Asia take advantage of their technological capabilities building policies to lower the environmental burden of high speed industrial growth within the region? Our answer to this question draws heavily on the increasing dissatisfaction within the OECD economies in the traditional way, through command and control environmental regulatory agencies, in which governments in the OECD have pursued improvements in the environmental performance of industry (Davies and Mazurek 1998; NAPA 1995). As some (Hausker 1999) have argued, command and control regulatory approaches fail to capitalize fully on the innovative capabilities of Wrms and industries and as a result generate costs of abatement that are unnecessarily high. Because of this, others (Chertow and Esty 1997; Gunningham and Grabowsky 1998) have urged greater flexibility and innovation in how environmental goals are met. Various alternatives have been proposed, including greater use of information-based policy tools, devolution of policy implementation to regions and localities, and increased cooperation between government and industry in seeking cost-effective solutions to environmental concerns. Critics of these proposed reforms suggest that ceding discretionary decision-making authority to firms and industries amounts to a weakening of regulatory enforcement that will undermine future gains in environmental performance. Our purpose in this chapter is to build on the calls for environmental regulatory reform by demonstrating that there are approaches to improving the environmental performance of industry that are emerging in East Asia that take greater advantage of the capabilities building activities of firms in developing economies without sacrificing the ability of regulators to hold these firms to tough performance standards. We do so by examining the contribution of a broad array of government institutions in such reform initiatives in the rapidly industrializing economies of East Asia. Within the United States, environmental regulatory reform initiatives are focused primarily upon the environmental regulatory agency, the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA). Various European countries have explored different approaches to environmental protection, such as the creation of ‘environmental covenants’ between government and industry in the Netherlands.

Abstract:

Castor belongs to a monotypic genus Ricinus and subtribe Ricininae. It is one of the oldest plants, getting importance as an agricultural crop for subtropical and tropical countries in the world. Castor is a hardy plant, requires low input, tolerates marginal soils, is easy to establish in the field, is resistant to drought, and gives yield 350–900 kg oil per hectare. Castor oil shows great functional value in energy sector, industry, and pharmaceutical. In recent years, it received increasing demand in the international market for its more than 700 uses, ranging from medicine and cosmetics to biodiesel, plastic, and lubricants. The oil is significant for many industrial uses compared with other oils from plant sources because of its high and low temperature-tolerant properties. This chapter has been written to provide botanical descriptions, ecology, agro-technology, and versatile industrial uses.

Abstract:

High Asia, defined here as that great tract of land from the Himalaya- Karakoram in the south to the Tian Shan in the north and the Pamir in the west to the Qinling Mountains in the east, is a very dusty place. Whole communities of people in this region are exposed to the adverse effects of natural (aerosolic) dusts at exposure levels reaching those encountered in some high-risk industries. Outdooor workers are at particular risk. However, few data are available on the magnitude of the dust impact on human health. The effect of such far-travelled particles on the health of the human population in the Loess Plateau, and including major Chinese cities, has received relatively little attention to date. A combination of the highest known uplift rates, rapid river incision (up to 12 mm/yr: Burbank et al. 1996), unstable slopes, glaciation and widespread rock breakup by crystal growth during freezing (frost action), and by hydration of salts (salt weathering) makes the High Asia region the world’s most efficient producer of silty (defined as between 2 and 63 μm) debris. The earliest written records of the dust hazard come from China, most notably in the “Yu Gong” by Gu Ban (ca 200 BC) (Wang and Song 1983). Here, deposits of wind-blown silt (known as ‘loess’) cover the landscape in a drape that is locally 500 m thick. In North China, the loess covers an area of over 600,000 km², most of it in the Loess Plateau, situated in the middle reaches of the Huang He (Yellow River). The characteristic properties of loess include high porosity and collapsibility on wetting (Derbyshire et al. 1995, Derbyshire and Meng 2000).Thus, it is readily reworked and redistributed by water. This process concentrates silts in large alluvial fans (up to 50 x 50 km) in the piedmont zones of 6,000 m high glacier- and snow-covered mountain ranges of western China, including the Altai Shan (‘shan’ = mountains), Tian Shan, Kunlun Shan, Qilian Shan, and Karakoram. These zones are loci for human populations, and also a major source of wind-blown dust.

Abstract:

Abstract One of the biggest challenges in Oil and gas industries is placing a proper abandonment and sidetrack cement plugs in long and highly deviated wells like ERD wells. As per ADNOC offshore strategy for introducing new technology and practices to overcome operation challenges. ADNOC offshore drilling team worked together with one of the oil and gas services provider and came up with an innovative idea and technique by using available equipment and implementing a new procedures and practices to ensure well integrity by placing a long abandon cement plug in highly deviated well across hydrocarbon bearing reservoir. The new tools and technique implemented successfully in two wells X01 and X02 in one of ADNOC offshore fields. The new idea started from planning phase by working together with Services Company, where the assigned team went through all required job planning and check the proper tools to use with the best procedures. The team faced some challenges in relation to tools and equipment availability, which affected the first trial job. However, these challenges mitigated in the next job. The new technique proved advantageous by avoiding cement plug failures during abandon and sidetrack cement plug placements jobs, in optimum time and efficient way while reducing cost. This technique subsequently introduced to all ADNOC Offshore drilling teams and to be implemented in future wells.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper prepared for 2018 OTC Offshore Asia explores the current history of electrically driven functionality for subsea production systems. It is expected that co-existence of hybrid electrohydraulic and all-electric functionality will dominate the market for subsea tree and manifold control short term. Electric choke and manifold valve actuation offer many advantages as proved successfully during the last 16 years, e.g. related to modularity and flexibility, with zero discharge, with high operational speed and high positioning accuracy, along with CAPEX and OPEX benefits. Performance of systems such as Statoil's Asgard Subsea Gas Compressor is a game changer that will make all-electric valve control base case also for future subsea processing plants. Reliability & Availability concerns were the major concerns by many operators for not switching to all-electric technology. The excellent reliability of trickle charged batteries in subsea systems, combined with modern safety electronics eliminate the traditional actuator spring as failsafe mechanism power source. All of this has simplified the equipment, reduced the size, and enables continuous equipment status monitoring. Competitive all-electric systems are expected to be introduced in stages, starting with infill wells. This will eliminate the risk of new technology for the best business cases, being long distance gas fields, water injectors and deep water systems. Subsea all-electric solutions benefit from general technology developments in other industries. Full utilization is however slow in the subsea market, hampered by current rules and regulations, risk aspects and conservative mindsets. All-electric solutions need Champions and a continued successful staged development initiatives to realize their full potential for significantly reducing subsea field development capital and operational cost.

Abstract:

Abstract Historically, the hardest and most abrasive rock formations in Oman have been drilled using either diamond-protected, roller-cone insert bits or impregnated bits in combination with high-speed drives. Polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits have been successfuly used to drill soft and non-abrasive formations to depths of approximately 2, 500 m. Within this region, all previous attempts to drill deeper into the hard and abrasive intervals have resulted in rapid bit wear, poor rate of penetration (ROP), and repetitive trips for bit change. A new PDC cutter technology combined with a novel multi-level cutting structure force balancing has extended the PDC bit footprint, setting new records for drilling the longest intervals of hard and abrasive sandstone formation in Oman. This new technology is the result of a program committed to two years of research, which focused on the improvement of PDC cutter wear and impact resistance, as well as addressing bit vibration and wear distribution issues. As a result, Halliburton DBS PDC bits have become the standard for drilling hard and abrasive rock in the Middle East, providing significant improvement with respect to distances drilled and ROP. In rotary mode, or in combination with low-cost drives, this new technology has drastically reduced the operational cost per foot drilled in Oman.
