Potential factors of Champasack p

Locate in the southern part of Laos, which has border linking with 4 countries: China, Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia Still rich for natural resources: forest, mineral and large area compared to other Provinces 4000 Mekong islands and water fall, which have a great potential for tourism Better place for agriculture and forest plantation investments as its large and good soil Good governance and clear policy supporting for both domestic and international investments

Constraint of the Champasack p

High competition for products and trading with

  • ther high technology countries: China, Vietnam

and Thailand Lack of good quality staff in term of social‐ economic planning and assessment Lack of law enforcement for plan implementing and monitoring

Main driver factors to forest transition from now to year 2020 now to year 2020

Government policy: seedling supporting Long term land concession from the government to both domestic and international forest plantation investors Forestry law enforcement Low/no tax collection of forest plantation Banning exporting of raw materials: Log and timber Encouragement more private, government and NGOs for forest rehabilitation both plantation and natural management 1st June, every year is being forest plantation in the country E i d l t Economic development Building local awareness of forest conservation
