“A $15 a month solar water pumping system allowed a farmer in Nepal to significantly increase milk production, and led to a healthier herd. She was able to expand her herd by 55 per cent.”– Off-grid renewables testimonials at #IOREC from Avishek Malla, CEO @SunFarmerTeam#IOREC

Earlier, @MaplecroftRisk Kaho Yu mentioned that #china’s insistence to use yuan as the denomination for its futures market has caused it to lose much appeal. To attract #investors, it is important to use a widely traded #currency such as the USD #SIEW2018@SIEW_sg
Dr Liu Qiang, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences: Even if #China builds #LNG hubs at @Shenzhen and @Shanghai, these centers don’t represent China’s market. Trading in yuan also don’t represent the world’s sentiments. #China needs to set up a new system #siew2018@SIEW_sg
Yales Vivadina, MD of Petroraya, opined that while #Indonesia has a good number of gas suppliers and gas buyers, it is lacking #gas aggregators. #SIEW2018@SIEW_sg#GAS2018
@MaplecroftRisk developed a methodology to assess the challenges to developing a gas hub. Comparing the risk scorecards below for #sg, #china and #Germany, happy to see that Singapore is well-poised to become a #gas#hub! #SIEW2018@SIEW_sg
Dr. Kaho Yu, Senior Research Analyst of Verisk Maplecroft’s Politics (@MaplecroftRisk) outlined the following criteria for the development of a #gas#hub. How many boxes are #Sg ticking? #SIEW2018@SIEW_sg
