“…Therefore, these datasets were compiled and analysed by using different government data sources, published reports and peer-reviewed articles. For example, the water data for Bali province was taken from the water consumption inventory database (Ono et al, 2017). In the case of Kaski district, water use data was taken from FAO AQUASTAT (2011) for the agricultural sector.…”

This casebook presents the outcomes of the Water for Sustainable Development (WSD) research project implemented by the United Nations University Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability (UNU-IAS) to improve regional environmental and economic policies in the case study countries. The project investigated the role of water in the sustainable development of four locations in Asia: Bali Province, Indonesia; Kaski District, Nepal; Visakhapatnam City, India; and Rayong Province, Thailand. Based on an Input-Output (IO) analysis, the research findings provide a comprehensive matrix of intersectoral dependence, in terms of economy, water consumption, and pollution loads, and offer policy directives for controlling water pollution. The publication is aimed at policymakers, water practitioners, researchers, and students interested in learning and utilising the analytical framework developed by WSD.

“…However, cannot be broken, so, can only strengthen the foreign cooperation in the resource-rich countries, look at Japan, it is a developed country, but the land area is narrow, less resources, and industry developed, these resources are highly dependent. In addition, in the information above, we know that Myanmar is rich in forest resources, it is very important in the modern society of manufacturing, we all used paper, household, office, all related to wash it, under the background of the generation of all the way to expand [12]the exchange of these resources, is the development of our country in important ways, after all, the environment of our country is under the influence of rapid development after reform and opening up, is very heavy, so this is also a generation all the way down in our country must cooperate with the increase of Myanmar's state of the objective requirement.…”

In The Belt and Road background, whether it is China or Southeast Asian countries on mutual cooperation and development in the future, reasonable and avoid the risk of investment are very important to both sides, in the process of cooperation, there may be policy, civil war and other factors, so it is very important to study the investment risk and trend, Since 90s, China has become one of the largest investment countries in Burma. It is the focus of investment in all aspects of agriculture and industry. First, it is based on good relations and the demand for future common development. Under the current international situation, resources and labor are the main causes of economic growth. The current Chinese economy, labor resources due to aging, policy control is serious, and Southeast Asian countries is a large population, rich in resources, in Belt and Road Initiative policy above, the state has adopted many policies to promote cooperation, and Southeast Asian countries in the current enterprise technology level is low, and the lack of large enterprises less. Lack of experience, and the development of a country needs consumption, investment, import and export, domestic demand can't keep up, consumption is not good, can only increase investment, increase net export to achieve better development, this is the common need of both sides, so relying on stable cooperation, this is the best development of China and Burma in the future, but also two The well-being of the people of the state in the future. Through good cooperation and good control of the risk, this will enable us to avoid the various risks that exist in the process of development, and thus make better and faster development. In addition, the cheap labor force is urgently needed by the current Chinese enterprises. The increase of labor cost is that many enterprises have lost the power of living, and this is better solved the question through cooperation. This article is devoted to the study of various risks and makes substantive policy recommendations on how to avoid these risks.

Industries consume 20% and 50% of global water and energy, contributing 25% of total greenhouse gas emissions. They strive to become more efficient in water and energy usage and reduce carbon emissions. This study analyzed water, energy, and carbon footprints of five manufacturing industries—automobile, cement, chemical, pulp and paper, and steel. Multi‐linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between production, water use, energy use, and carbon emission. The study also explored the potential to reduce carbon emissions by reducing water and energy usage. Among the selected industries, pulp and paper, and steel industries have higher water, energy, and carbon footprints. On average, it takes 5.58 m3 of water and 17.11 GJ of energy to produce a ton of paper, and 4.03 m3 of water and 19.52 GJ of energy to produce a ton of steel. The analysis also shows that water and energy use are closely related to production in all industries. Carbon emission is closely related to the production processes in cement, pulp and paper, and steel, and to reduce the emissions, both water and energy usage have to be reduced. The automobile industry has the highest potential to reduce carbon emissions by reducing water and energy uses, followed by steel and cement industries. By reducing 3% of their water and energy uses, automobile and steel industries, on average, have the potential to reduce 11% and 2.6% of their carbon emissions, respectively. The study explored the existing policies and recommendations for industries to achieve sustainable development goals.
