INAUGURAL ESI / ISEAS AMBASSADORIAL SERIES


Date	:	24 - 25 May
Venue	:	I3 Auditorium,21 Heng Mui Keng Terrace Singapore 119613

This is the first in the planned Ambassadorial series. Designed as a platform for foreign dignitar-ies to expound upon their countries' positions with respect to various energy and environmental issues, this series aims to provide the public with international perspectives.

France has always been concerned with sustainable development. This is borne out by the fact that France has the lowest CO2 emissions among the major industrialised countries. Critical initia-tives and political decisions are continually undertaken by the French government to keep France firmly on the path of sustainable development.The 2005 Energy Initiative and the Sustainable Development Round Table (Grenelle de l'Environnement) are but some of these initiatives. France's nuclear energy policy is spectacular in its contribution to the achievement of sustainable development goals.

The Ambassador of France to Singapore, H.E. Olivier Caron will deliver a speech, "France's Sus-tainable Development Policy". It will be followed by a Q & A session and refreshments

France-ASEAN Conference on Clean Energies

ASEAN has a growing interest in the development of nuclear power for energy security reasons and for combating climate change.

France is currently building up a strong and diversified portfolio in renewable and carbon-free technologies. It is a world leader in the use and development of clean energies and relies more heavily on nuclear power than any other country in the world. Benefitting from tight collaboration between the public and private sectors, the French nuclear industry boasts safe, efficient and cut-ting edge technologies that are among the best in the domain.
