我在多軌外交研究所的第二週實習報告，工作一樣沒有什麼進展，新聞倒是看了不少，有種眼花撩亂的感覺。
*Project Progress*
Hailey cannot come to office on Monday as scheduled for she cannot finish her paper. I do not have access to the database which Tammy briefly mentioned about. I will establish my own contacts. For the Japan-Korea Dialogue, I have talked to several Korean students so far. They are not IR students; they will be able to provide some inputs different from IR students. They are interested in IMTD. Don, the American PHD student, showed interests to come. I will do the follow-up.
I took a look at the Kaesong Industrial Park. Kaesong Industrial Park is one of the cooperative projects between two Koreas. Kaesong is funded by Seoul. Currently, 26 Korean companies operate in Kaesong; the Park hires about 15000 North Koreans. The ROK President Lu acknowledged that the most important factor of peace in Korean Peninsula is the economic interdependence. It is indeed a good idea. It is related to the various ways to deal with North Korea. Japanese public might have a different point of view. I will incorporate Kaesong Industrial Park into the Dialogue.
*News about North East Asia*
APEC meeting seems to be inconclusive. APEC meeting in Sydney ended on 9th September, 2007. The two day meeting reached a rather poor result. Two most critical topics on the agenda were the climate change and the Doha round. The leaders called for a conclusion for the deadlocked Doha round after six years of negotiations. Regarding the carbon emissions, the leaders did not adopt any binding target. They wished that by 2030 the increase in carbon emissions will be held to 0.75% if the national output growth is at 1%. This declaration did not satisfy the environmentalists although Australian PM Howard said that it is the best deal under current circumstances.
China ordained a Catholic coadjutor on Sunday, September 9. The efforts were made because China wants to strengthen ties with the Holy See although China is angry at the Vatican’s recognition of Taiwan. China insisted the bishops should be appointed by the government; the Vatican has been showing its dismay. Pope Benedict has recently shown the wish to reconcile with China and accepted that many bishops were appointed by the government.
