Purpose of this curriculum:
Through this training program, participants gained an understanding of Japan’s advanced legal frameworks and support measures for CN, with a particular focus on the revised Energy Conservation Act, as well as initiatives undertaken by private companies and the latest information on CN-related policies and institutional frameworks in other ASEAN countries. Participants also discussed the introduction, improvement, and challenges of CN-related policies, legal systems, and support measures in their own countries, and examined draft policy frameworks to be implemented by each country.
