https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks Case studies of South Sudan, China and Singapore en-us 2022-02-21 03:28:35 UTC 2026-01-24 19:32:38 UTC hello@padlet.com tan_mei_li_jasmine https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2505466937 From the case study:
Identify 1) the needs that the country prioritises? 2) the limitations? 3) the trade-offs? ]]> 2023-03-06 16:42:07 UTC https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2505466937 https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2506352946 needs of Sudan : Need better infrastructure for roads, agriculture ( larger scale for cash crops purposes), financial support due to poor economy, access to sea 

limitations: poor governance, continuing border war in the region of abyei, tension btwn pro gov & christian forces, no access to sea, do not have control over their oil supply

Trade off : South Sudan has focus on the economic pillar as they have a lot of oil and natural resources . They traded of their social pillar where there are more than 50 percent below the poverty line. There's wars happening frequently

This allowed for Singaporeans to be heard and to be involved in future environmental projects in Singapore.

limitations: Singapore has limited resources and small land space, hence we’re not able to implement as much projects.

trade offs: SG traded off clean air for more convenient transport and more resources from the power stations.  annual ambient mean increased from 16 to 20 from 2003 to 2013. This is evident through the reallocation of land which has resulting in the deforestation of the places with a lot of trees 🌳]]> 2023-03-07 06:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2506355286 https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2506356573 needs:
Prioritises economic pillar but not translated to social pillar
1. needs a healthier economy
2. needs to improve agricultural output
3. needs better more functioning road
4. better access to healthcare 
5. prioritise agriculture development 
6. Increase accessibility for the population to get food
7. Better irrigation system 


limitations:
1)conflicts between neighbouring countries such as Sudan as well as civil wars, disrupting growth (not under their control)
2) land locked country with no sea access (geographical)
3) Over-reliance on oil which is shared and also a finite resource (geographical)
4) lack well-developed oil mining infrastructure, resources not fully ultilised, economy suffer -> 50.6% of people lie below the poverty line.
5) Hot wet climate leading to many tropical diseases-> rates of fatal diseases are one of the highest in the world 
6) Better technology in the education sector and the primary industries 
7) lack of large scale agriculture for export

Tradeoffs:
1. Money now has to be allocated to more urgent sectors such as education and agricultural
2. Less educated workforce
3.

limitations: lack of nature resources due to constant deforestation.
trade-off: china traded off environment for a better economy because by putting in more efforts into increasing the country’s GDP, so that the economy can prosper and grow. the environment was then neglected and this led to them having to increase demand for imported forest products. 🌲🌲
as china is a large exporter, they also produce many products in factories, and this causes large amount of fossil fuels to be burnt, emitting greenhouse gases into the air. this causes air pollution, which is being traded off for the country’s growing economy.

-social(create more green, quality jobs, from an estimated 60,000 in 2011) and environmental(the progress is recycling is slow(56%(in 2008) to 61%(in 2013))
2)limitations:
-technology unable to produce household appliances that is energy saving and cheap
3)tradeoffs:
-slower economic progress(develop $52 million Green Buildings Innovation Cluster to grow capability in developing green buildings)
-the people’s voices
-the people does not have enough money to afford the household appliance that is energy saving]]> 2023-03-07 06:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/tan_mei_li_jasmine/Bookmarks/wish/2506359633
