“…É possível afirmar que os projetos hidrelétricos são orientados para a segurança humana. No entanto, a ausência de participação do povo ribeirinho nos projetos de desenvolvimento de energia hidrelétrica é um sinal convincente de que os projetos raramente capacitam as pessoas (CHU, 2017).…”

A pesquisa busca analisar os mecanismos de governança do risco a partir dos elementos e aspectos transversais do framework elaborado pelo Comitê Internacional de Gestão de Riscos (IRGC), com objetivo de identificar ocorrências de mecanismos de governança e preservação ambiental em construções de usinas hidrelétricas. Para tanto, foram realizadas buscas em artigos, previamente selecionados, por meio de revisão sistemática com a utilização do protocolo Thorpe. Devido a esse método de seleção, a pesquisa limitou-se a algumas regiões geográficas, como alguns países do sudeste asiático, do continente africano, além de Brasil e Turquia. O estudo observou que na maioria dos artigos avaliados não foram encontrados os mecanismos de governança do risco, o que evidencia uma lacuna entre as propostas dos projetos e suas execuções. Essa falha indica uma falta de avaliação de possíveis danos às populações afetadas pelas construções. Por fim, conclui-se que é fundamental a utilização da governança do risco na proposição de projetos de usinas hidrelétricas a fim de mitigar os impactos aos habitantes das regiões afetadas pelas construções.

“…Recently, the Cambodian government has focused on a key major challenge involving building human capacity to meet the expectations of the evolution of Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 is one of the most key challenging themes for engineering design through educational improvement and human capacity building, which is a significant critical challenge for developing Industrial 4.0 (Chu, 2017). This way, the focus of Industry 4.0 is to create intelligent products, procedures, and processes (Motyl et al, 2017).…”

Drawing on the social exchange theory (SET) and the self-determination theory (SDT), the present study aims to examine the impact of green human resource management (GHRM) practices on organizational innovation, employee creativity, and career development competency in the SME context in Cambodia. GHRM is crucial in fostering innovation within Cambodia's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The country's economy continues to develop and diversify, and SMEs are becoming increasingly important drivers of growth and innovation. Integration effectiveness of GHRM practices and strategies in an SME context may increase an employee's capacity for innovation, thereby contributing to Cambodia's overall economic development. Furthermore, aligning GHRM with the overall business strategy is paramount for driving innovation in SMEs. GHRM should be closely integrated with the organization's innovation goals, ensuring that recruitment, performance management, and reward systems are all designed to support and incentivize innovative thinking and behavior. To reach this study's research objectives, 388 SMEs were asked to rate the questionnaire survey. By employing structural equation modeling (SEM), the study finds positive and significant effects of the subdimension of GHRM practice-i.e., green job design (GJD), green recruitment & selection (GRS), green labor relation (GLR), green training & development (GTD), and green compensation management (GCM) on organizational innovation, employee creativity, and employee career competencies. Indeed, effective HRM practices are vital for driving innovation within SMEs in Cambodia. SMEs invest in talent management, fostering a positive work environment, and aligning GHRM with innovation goals to increase high business performance in Cambodia's economy.

“…China invested over USD1.6 billion to build seven hydropower projects between 2005 and 2015 and more are planned for the near future [43]. Five of the Cambodian hydropower dams, with a total capacity of 915 MW, were financed by Chinese investors and built in the coastal regions, including Kamchay, Stung Tatay, Stung Atay, Lower Stung Russey Chrum, Stung Cheay Areng, as well as one in the Mekong region, the LS2 [45][46][47].…”

Conflict and cooperation are key governance challenges in transboundary river basin governance, especially in the Mekong River Basin. Hydropower dams have been at the center of such a conflict and cooperation that are useful metrics to assess the level and intensity of conflict and cooperation in transboundary river basin governance. This study examines transboundary river basin cooperation in the Mekong through the lens of hydropower dam projects. It uses a literature review and a case study of the Lower Sasan 2 (LS2) Dam to analyze the conflict and cooperation in the Mekong region, from the era of the US influence in the Cold War, the post-Cold War period, and the present-day with the rise of China. It concludes that Mekong river basin cooperation has evolved as a result of external influences and internal competition by riparian states over Mekong resources. The LS2 was identified in 1961 by US-supported hydropower studies and then by the GMS/ADB in 1998, but left unattended until 2007 when Vietnam signed an agreement with Cambodia to undertake a feasibility study in 2008. It took 16 years to get the LS2 built by a Chinese company in 2014 and completed it in 2017. Through the process, the states, powerful external actors, financial institutions, and private sector actors have politicized the LS2 studies, design, and construction. Cambodia, as a weak downstream state, has had to and must continue to position itself strategically in its relationships with these hydro-hegemons to compete for hydropower dam projects and protect its interests. The rise of China has induced the changing relationship between riparian states. Many hydropower dams were built with Chinese funding. Cambodia has also enjoyed its close ties with China, and the building of the LS2 dam by a Chinese company contributes to changing its positions in the Mekong cooperation but suffers environmental and social impacts.
