KEYNOTE ADDRESS 1
KOREA’S GREEN GROWTH INITIATIVES AND GREEN CITIES
Soogil Young
Chairman, Presidential Committee on Green Growth, Republic of Korea
On August 15, 2008, in the speech marking the 60th anniversary of the Republic of Korea, President Lee Myung-bak declared what he proposed to call ‘low carbon green growth’ as the main pillar of Korea’s new development vision. This was 4 years ago. Since then, the Korean government has been pursuing green growth as the country’s new national development strategy in earnest and with a full vigor.
As a result, green growth dynamism has begun to take root in the Korean economy and, as a result, the country has become much greener by now. What have been those policies that have brought about such impacts? I have a 4-point answer to this question.
First, the green growth policies have been driven by two principle goals: one, to reduce GHG emissions and to transform the nation’s energy system for this purpose, and two, to stop and reverse environmental degradation in general and to transform production processes and people’s way of living for this purpose. Pursuit of these goals requires a systemic approach to transform the entire economy, as well as an effort sustained over decades.
Second, the strategic objective of green growth policies has been to make use of those two goals in order to create pressure and demand for green innovation as well as investment.
Third, and accordingly, green growth policies are comprehensive in scope, covering all sectors of the economy. Fourth, Korea has created a strong institutional framework for promotion of green growth policies.
The challenge of promoting green growth in many countries may be considered largely as the challenge of developing green cities since much of economic activities increasingly take place in cities. Especially in Korea, a 90% of population reside in cities and much of greenhouse gas emission is released urban activities. Proactive response to resource depletion and climate change requires transformation of the urban areas into resource -recirculating energy-efficient green cities. From the growth perspective, a green city may be considered as a test bed for green industries and technologies, as well as a source of demand for industries and jobs. The Korean government promotes green urban development by focusing on three strategic plans. They are to build an energy-efficient city, with resource-recirculatory infrastructures and ecological spaces. Korea’s green city policies in the short term focus on pilot green city projects like one to build one million ‘green homes for low-income families with no homes of their own, and to build pilot green
cities, both incorporating a number of the most advanced energy-efficient equipment and new city concepts such as zero energy towns. In a longer-term perspective, green city policies aim to promote greening of the existing cities by developing and offering standard green city planning model per city to be implemented through the urban renewable process.
In the context of Korea’s self-governing city structure, in order to stimulate actions by the local government and community, the Presidential Committee on Green Growth annually administers the “ECHORICH City” competition. International green city competitions such as the annual LiveCom Award has also been effective in encouraging Korean cities’ effort to green themselves.

A NATION’S MANY APPROACHES TO GOING GREEN &
MEASURING ITS PERFORMANCE : MALAYSIA’S LOW CARBON CITIES FRAMEWORK
Khairiah Talha
Honorary Secretary General, EAROPH
In the light of climate change and the potential impact on a nation’s economy, policymakers are finding ways to strike a balance between economic growth and efficiency and environmental protection. Sustainable development, being the key word to strike this balance, has seen the re-thinking of business as usual practices and seen the formulation of new approaches and policies.
Many countries, including Malaysia, are promoting sustainable development by investing in green technology in the form of cleaner low-carbon transport and energy systems, “smart”
electricity grids, energy efficiency, renewable energy as well as in green research and development. National policies that form the basis for sustainability have been formed.
One such policy on the National Green Technology Policy of Malaysia, approved by the Government in 2009, which contained five strategic thrusts.
Recognizing that cities are major contributors towards greenhouse gas emission, the fifth thrust of the national policy identified the need to achieve cities with low carbon footprints.
But a framework needed to be developed first on what constituted low carbon cities.
The Malaysian Institute of Planners (MIP) worked with the Ministry of Water, Green Technology and Energy, to formulate the Low Carbon Cities Framework and Assessment System (LCCFAS) with the objective of guiding government agencies, private developers and the people on city development can impact and help lower carbon emissions in the cities of Malaysia. The LCCFAS became an official document when it was launched by the Prime Minister of Malaysia in November 2011.
The LCCFAS provides users with a tool to measure carbon emission resulting from urban activities. It covers four main elements of Urban activities, namely :
ⅰ. Urban Environment ⅱ. Urban Infrastructure ⅲ. Urban Transportation ⅳ. Buildings
These four elements are given performance criteria, totaling 13 altogether, and within these,
there are 35 sub-criteria. The LCCF is a tool for urban managers and all stakeholders to know the levels of carbon that is emitted out of certain development decisions, and the manner in which carbon can be sequestered. It is a tool that calls for a balance in urban actions – optimizing land for development with protecting land for environmental purposes.

Malaysia continuously supports initiatives in implementing sustainable development, with the Malaysian government promoting environmental stewardship in all development plans.
Within the context of sustainable development, this paper outlines strategies towards developing green townships in Malaysia, highlighting related policies that have been formulated at various levels of development plans including planning guidelines which promotes passive green designs.
Development Plans in Malaysia have long recognized the need for green strategies by way of conservation and promoting smart growth also promoting green networks in urban neighbourhoods.
This paper shall highlight Malaysia 5 year Plans which become the basis in supporting sustainable development and green initiatives in Malaysia. In tandem with the Malaysia Plans and other national policies such as the Green Technology Policy, the Ministry of Housing and Local Government, Malaysia, had translated these into spatial form through the National Physical Plan (NPP) and the National Urbanisation Policy (NUP) prepared by the Federal Department of Town and Country Planning, with strategies carved towards a low carbon society.
Policies in the National Physical Plan generally support the green city concept. Meanwhile The National Urbanization Policy (NUP) emphasizes optimal and balanced landuse, encourages re-development programmes for Brownfield areas and promotes urban regeneration, urban containment and compact cities. Other NUP strategies include adequate provision of open space and recreational areas to meet the requirement of the population, consequently promoting the contiguous and integrated development of green areas in urban centres to reduce carbon emission, These include developing an integrated, efficient and user-friendly
public transportation system with environmental friendly vehicles, bicycle lanes, and pedestrian network for efficient connectivity, reduction of emission and the reduction of the impact of urban heat islands.
The NUP also contains measures to support the use of innovative technology in urban planning, focusing on urban services management which aims to reduce the production of waste, encourage the use of efficient energy and renewable energy and promote the construction of green buildings.
All these strategies are consequently embedded in lower tier plans i.e. the Structure Plans at the State level and Local Plans and Special Area Plans at the Local Authority levels.
At a more specific level, the prescriptions towards Green Cities are detailed out in the Ministry’s Green Neighbourhood Guidelines. Components in the Green Neighbourhood Guideline that shall be discussed in this paper include components related to Site Selection, Green Network, Community Design and Urban Transportation, Green Building features and management of waste, energy and water.
On the institutional perspective, the implementation of the Green Neighbourhood Guideline is monitored by a Working Committee, with the Ministry of Housing and Local Government as focal point. This paper shall highlight the Green Neighbourhood Development Action Plan which contains 5 strategic thrusts, 28 strategies and 49 actions.
The Green Action Plan Implementation Matrix shall be presented, focusing on achievements of states and local authorities including those from regional development authorities. Case Studies in Community Participation in the planning for Green Cities shall also be highlighted.

Sustainable city is a concept that created on the belief that human life in the world must continue (Kuswartojo, 2006). To support the sustainable city, provision of city infrastructure and facilities should be based on environmental friendliness, i.e. build with no resulting environmental pollution; support element in the natural cycle of nature, and eliminate the effects of global warming.
In order to meet the needs of urban communities, the city government has been providing enough infrastructures that refer to Indonesian national standard, SNI 03-1733-2004 on Procedure for Residential Neighborhood Planning in Urban Area. Intend to provide input on the evaluation of this standard, this paper discusses about opinions and arguments on the provision of educational facility as one of social infrastructures. Data to be analyzed was collected in 2011 through direct interview to selected residents in 10 cities around Indonesia.
Descriptive statistics are used to describe or draw any conclusions about the group of respondent, while descriptive statistical techniques were used to analyze the quality of each variable study.
Finding showed that the need on educational facilities was very high that may reflect the increase of people awareness on education and the “Compulsory Education Program”
encouraged by the Ministry of National Education; and this should be supported by the provision of adequate facilities. One of the efforts to support this is to improve the standards; and to get effective results the implementation of standards should be supported by the government policies.

Environments & Water Resources Research Division, Korea Research Institute for Human Settlement, Anyang, Korea
Climate change negatively affects various aspects of human society. Climate change in Korea is faster than the global trend, and it has been causing serious natural disaster such as flooding, drought, heat wave etc. Especially, urban area is main culprit and victim of climate change because it emits tremendous green house gases by consumed fossil fuel and it can be seriously damaged by climate change natural disaster. Therefore, climate change measures considering both adaptation and mitigation are required in urban areas. In Korea, flooding and landslide driven by heavy rainfall are most serious natural disaster in urban area. In order to prepare heavy rainfall driven by climate change, construction measures such as drainage system, dam, levee etc must be intensified. Furthermore, it is important to make safer cities which can control rainfall runoff and increase runoff lag time by using LID(Low Impact Development) technologies, land-use and urban compositional element such as park, square, road, street trees and so on. Especially, green infrastructure of LID technologies makes wholesome water cycle, and it helps to reduce energy consumption.
Considering the characteristics of urban development in Korea such as high-density development and densely populated area, first of all, it is required that eco-friendly urban compositional element considering natural disaster prevention should be applied on vulnerable areas to climate change disaster. Futhermore, it is essential things to develop a simulation system which has function of effectiveness analysis to support urban planning policy development. In this research, it is proposed to develop the direction of urban planning simulation system for extracting vulnerable area to heavy rainfall and analysing the effectiveness of urban compositional element considering natural disaster such as land-use, park, green infrastructure, square etc. When the results of urban planning simulation system are applied to urban planning and design, it is expected to help construction of safer green city considering climate change adaptation and mitigation.

Kerry McGovern*
K McGovern & Associates, EAROPH Australia, Highgate hill, Australia
The value of assets controlled by governments is in the billions of US dollars. These assets are crucial for the nation to function. Replacement of the stock of public asset is an expensive and major undertaking and is not often widely considered, planned or budgeted for: as a result their strategic management is crucial.
The Australian Asset Management Collaborative Group, of which EAROPH Australia is a member, is addressing this challenge by providing a guide to those responsible for delivering and managing built assets to meet community and service delivery needs. The Guide also highlights the need to minimise risk, achieve value-for-money, and promote sustainability. It articulates key strategies to assist in this undertaking.
Integrated Strategic Asset Management (ISAM) brings together economics, engineering, information technology, sustainability and human elements to form a holistic approach to the delivery of built assets. This approach recognises the combination of these elements into a greater whole as well as their interrelationships and interdependencies. It focuses on the long term direction for overall management of infrastructure and engineering assets, while considering the immediate operational matters. The Guide provides a basis for decision-making and implementation of asset management.
This Guide focuses on an integrated approach to managing built assets. It takes into account the built form and considers human and ecological elements. It also highlights that organisations can work together to deliver maximum outcomes.

Malaysia is well known around the world for its greenery and lusciousness of flora and fauna sources. The hot and humid climate in Malaysia is among the biggest challenges for the designers and planners to create a city, considering the communities and built environment. However, the rapidly increased development has created some major problems to the environment, which is one of them is the urban environmental pollution. In Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur city center has been leading the administration, development and economic of the country since decades ago. However, the city center has no longer survived from the environmental pollution and other problems like overcrowding and traffic congestion. The government administrative center then was shifted in 1999 from Kuala Lumpur to Putrajaya, due to the overcrowding and congestion in the Kuala Lumpur city center. Putrajaya is a planned city, located about 25km south of Kuala Lumpur that functions as the federal administrative center of Malaysia. As the new development in the country, it should be an example of a proper city planning to conserve the nature and implement sustainable design for benefits of the future generation. Putrajaya yet still not expose into serious environmental problems like Kuala Lumpur because it maintains the physical environment like green areas and has low traffic congestion. Therefore, this paper will discuss further about how we, as a planner can vigorously develop the city while retaining the rich environment quality preserved and enhanced. It is a crucial step that we should take into consideration as we believe that it is the reason why people choose to live and work in this city. The aim of the paper is to control urban pollution for the future development by injecting some suggestion on how we can apply a healthy lifestyle in an urban area towards the future. Thus, this paper attempts to address the future environmental issues that will cause pollution by making some predictions on the effect of urban development like the increase of population growth, number of vehicles, new development in the future and so on. The research applies a descriptive analysis, discussing the current condition and consequently some recommendations are proposed in an
innovation manner for the future solution to control pollution in the city. It is hoped that this research outcome can be a social and professional guidance and create awareness to save the city from being polluted in the future.

Nuraihan Mohd Ibrahim*, Mariana Mohamed Osman, Syahriah Bachok
International Islamic University Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
As school is a nucleus of the society, its development should be planned based on the sustainable development concept. The development of public schools is much influenced by population, school allocation, site area and government’s education policies. This paper however will focus on the green allocation of public schools. Hence, the walkable school concept is introduced since promotes the green transportation or non-motorized transportation theory application among children who go to schools. Before walkable school is implemented, walkable community first is introduced. Walkable community is important in creating healthy lifestyle of the people, in addition to protecting the environment.
Walkable schools concept concerns with the manners in which children access facilities within the school areas and how they travel to schools from home. These two elements help create a pleasant school environment for the children. This will in turn, enhance the learning environment for them thus will improve their academic performances. This paper also presents the factors underlying non-walking culture amongst children who go to school. Additionally, the overview on walkable school concept and the benefits of walking among children and the community will be revisited.

This study is to foresee Green City in 2030. More specifically, this study aims at the following: First, it foresees Green City by drawing foresight objects by sector including housing, industrial location, transportation. Second, it draws future images of Green City and policy agenda by summarizing foresight results by sector.
By 2030, Korea will become the world's 10th largest economic powerhouse in terms of GDP and an advanced country with USD 50,000 per capita GDP. Population will exceed 49.34 million in 2018, only to decrease to 48.63 million in 2030. By 2030, Korea will become a highly aging society with 24.3% of the total population aged 65 years and older.
Single-person households will also rise above 25%, and Korea will become a multi-cultural society. New technologies centered on INBEC or FT industries will develop, with a new breakthrough to be presented to solve the problems of mankind through technology convergence and compound.
∎ Future Housing in Green City ∙ U-Green housing to be popular
E-learning and tele-care functions are likely to be compounded with concepts of leisure space and workplace. Housing will be more convenient with the newest functions and will be green housing through the combination of resource savings and technologies of energy production. People can enjoy a rural lifestyle even in apartments, and detached houses will be as convenient as apartments.
∎ Future Industrial Location in Green City :
∙ FT (fusion technology) industry to develop centered on metropolitan areas:
Futures of industrial spaces in the metropolitan areas can be compounded into hybrid types.
The private sector's weight can increase in industrial location supply, and demand for rental location is expected to rise. Moreover, intelligent and green industrial spaces are foreseen
to be popularized as eco-spaces.
∎ Future Transportation in Green City ∙ U-Green cars and roads to be popular
Public transportation means in green city is foreseen to be diversified and transportation sharing ratio is likely to rise. Traffic jam during rush hour is expected to be eased since the need for passage and the number of passing cars and people are foreseen to go down.
In green city, more environment-friendly and smart cars in addition to consideration of the basic functions like quality, price, and fuel efficiency are foreseen to emerge in various forms. U-Green roads including smart roads and solar energy roads may be general ones.
New logistics system including underground tube, container conveyor belt, and high-speed logistics trains can also be adopted.
Future Images of Green City and Policy Agenda
Concerning the common future images of Green City, perception on sustainable development is enhanced, response to demand for land use is made focusing on urban regeneration, and land use becomes diversified. Although a U-Green national territorial era unfolds, the image of Green City shows the occurrence of natural disasters, due to severe rain storm or super typhoons.
By wrapping up the impacts of megatrends on national territory and future scenarios, a desirable image of Green City has been set as "Sustainable U-Green City."
In the future, demand for the development of Green City is not likely to increase as much as that during its high-growth period, relying on changes in population, industrial structure, and individual consciousness. Accordingly, soft power which enhances both the health and beauty of urban area by utilizing inherent natural resources for value-added resources, will be more important than the hard power of urban area such as quantitative expansions of housing, industrial location, transportation, and infrastructure. Without development projects mainly focused on the outward expansion of developed areas, there is a need to transform of urban area into safe, convenient, and pleasant spaces where various users of urban area can manage their own economic activities or everyday lives.

Research Background:
One of the major problems of Egypt is that its populated areas constitute only 5% of its total area. Some 99% of all Egyptians live in the Nile Valley neglecting the enormous desert areas that represent about 95% of the total area of the Egyptian land. A great solution for many of Egypt’s economic, political and social problems of Egypt lies in escaping this narrow Valley and the redistribution of the population to suite the general area of Egypt. That matter requires of course a new way of thinking, inspired by the spirit of the 25th of January’s Revolution which exceeded its political aim of overthrowing the political regime to overthrowing the way Egyptians used to think and act in the past.
The idea of the proposed project could be the starting point for Egypt to build new and environmentally clean communities through combining all efforts and different types of mentalities and specialties.
Objectives:
The main goal is to establish an environment – friendly urban community encompassing all means of living, to be the basis for a future clean city that help us escape from the narrow 5% valley, to the unused 95% area of the Egyptian land.
Methodology:
Future is thought, philosophy and meaning, and sustainability is the application of the thought of the future through technology, building systems, materials and renewable energies for sustainable communities in the desert. Future also is the study of strategies and visions of these communities and the uniqueness and diversity of each region according to its location, in order to write a new history for the sustainable urban future.
Outcomes and Summary of Results:
The idea of this research is a step toward writing the history of the future and an opportunity that should be used to help us get out from the narrow, crowded and polluted valley to a wide, organized, clean and self-renewed community.
All the above lead us to the four following results, in relation with the proposed environmental crisis of invading the desert:
First, the population and their requirements.
Second, technicality and the means of coexistence with the environment and how we
influence it.
Third, consumption and the available environmental sources.
Fourth, communication and sustainability is the ability to build systems of land use and
heritage exploitation, at the same time achieving the ecological balance and perfect use of land.
Therefore, the final outcome of the results is the establishment of an integrated community that is environmentally clean and depends on renewable energies. It is an attempt to ensure the continuity and sustainability of land development and to present a comprehensive study for the desert land development.
