Should Southeast Asia Go Nuclear : CAG Open Public Forum

Gopi Rethinaraj, Assistant Professor, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy; Fumio Murata, Technology Executive, Head of International Cooperation Office Hitachi-GE Nuclear Energy; Tara Buakamsri, Thailands Campaign Manager, Greenpeace Southeast Asia

The open public forum takes on Southeast Asia as a geographic focus, centering around the energy requirements of the region, especially Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. These are the countries that are contemplating nuclear energy as a viable option even while there are equally strong positions for maintaining the region as nuclear-free.
