| Research Abstract |
(1)The project members made frequent research trips in a group or independently to border areas and crossing national boundaries along East-West and North-South corridors in Indochina and the Mekong sub-region. On those occasions, they often gave chances to graduate students to accompany so that the project would bring educational aspects. They also visited many governmental agencies, enterprises and other organizations to obtain first-hand information and also research institutes and universities to exchange and cooperate on the concerned topics.
(2)In Japan, they organized study meetings and open lecture meetings two or three times each year, where they themselves made interim reports on their research topic and on the results of recent field trips, thus sharing information and ideas, and at the same time invited other researchers and specialists as guest speakers.
(3)The project closely cooperated with the projects of COE : Creation of Contemporary Asian Studies at Waseda University t
