    About the Roundtable

    The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident revealed significant human, organisational and cultural challenges to enhancing nuclear safety and security. The risks associated with nuclear energy do not originate from the technology itself but from the mindsets, attitudes, and behaviours of those involved in the operation and regulation of nuclear facilities. This Roundtable will deliberate on strengthening nuclear energy governance in East Asia, with the aim of identifying challenges to the development of nuclear safety culture and security culture as  well as other key challenges faced by potential nuclear newcomer countries in Southeast Asia and the lessons learnt from South Korea and France.

    It will examine critical infrastructure issues such as legislative and regulatory frameworks and human resource development that need to be addressed by both potential nuclear newcomers and nuclear power users in East Asia so as to improve the safe and secure management of nuclear energy. Particular emphasis is placed on the recent efforts of nuclear industry actors (power plant operators and vendors) and regulatory bodies in strengthening the regional culture of nuclear safety and security in East Asia. Overall, roundtable speakers will  highlight recent advances and future developments for nuclear safety and security in East Asia with special emphasis on key roles being played by regional institutions and networks, government bodies, regulators, the nuclear industry, civil society and academic institutions in nuclear governance in the region.

    The RSIS Roundtable is part of the Singapore International Energy Week (SIEW), an annual week-long platform for energy professionals, policymakers and commentators to discuss and share best practices and solutions within the global energy space. SIEW 2017 will facilitate discussions on staying nimble, managing risks, overcoming challenges and seizing opportunities in this evolving energy landscape.

    Earning a Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics from University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA in 2007, Dr. Phiphat Phruksarojanakun has strong interest in radiation transport, transmutation and activation analysis and Monte Carlo techniques for nuclear system. Dr. Phruksarojanakun had a brief experience as a post-doctoral researcher at the Fusion Technology Institute where he was a part of research team investigating the possibility of utilizing fusion Z-Pinch device. He has worked for the Office of Atoms for Peace or OAP, a nuclear and radiation regulator in Thailand, since October 2008. As a nuclear engineer, he had been responsible for assessing and verifying criticality and other safety-related parameters during reactor core reconfiguration. He has been a guest lecturer at the Mechanical Engineering Department, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi and also has actively involved with OAP’s public engagement as a speaker.  From 2013 to 2015 and since 2016, he has been serving as Head of International Cooperation at OAP and more importantly a National Liaison Officer or NLO to the Technical Cooperation Department, the International Atomic Energy Agency.
