10 6. Rationale for Road Map for Cleaner Fuels and Vehicles in Asia Urban Air Quality continues to be an important problem and mobile sources are an important part of the problem Asian countries do not all have medium term fuel quality strategies Capacity to regulate fuels is under-developed in several countries, especially those which lack medium term strategies Link the expertise of oil industry to produce high quality transportation fuel to complement ongoing efforts by different stakeholders to improve air quality management in Asia

11 7. Challenges & Opportunities Institutions political will & commitment Stakeholders buy-in negative lobbying sometimes from local vehicle manufacturers Fuel subsidy Cost to refinery and cost to consumers Adulteration

Case of Philippines National EST Strategy Cluster 2: Strengthening th DOTC, DENR-EMB, EMB LGU, Roadside Roadside Air Quality MO, DOST-PNRI, etc. Pollution Monitoring and Assessment; Source: DOTC Traffic Noise Management; Vehicle Emission Control, Standards and Inspection & Maintenance; DENR-EMB, DOTC, LGU, DOLE-OSHC, etc. DOTC-LTO-LTFRB, DENR- EMB, DOF, BOI, DTI-BPS- BIS,TESDA, ECAP, MMASBA, UP-ME, DOE- OIMB, Public Transport Groups, etc. Cleaner Fuels DOE-OIMB, DTI-BPS, DOST- PCIERD, DOTC, DENR-EMB, DOE-EUMB, Public Transport Groups, etc.

But government should leapfrog to Euro-IV and V as soon as possible. 13

14 9. Fuel Subsidy & Economic benefits of Clean Fuel Diesel/Gasoline Price (Ratio) November Bangladesh China India Indonesia Malaysia Nepal Pakistan Philippines Singapore Sri Lanka Thailand Vietnam Government Subsidy ( in BILLION USD) Country (P) Bangladesh China 0.68 NA 1.79 India Indonesia Malaysia Nepal NA NA 0.30 Pakistan NA Philippines NA NA NA Singapore NA NA NA Sri Lanka Thailand NA NA NA Vietnam decouple fuel prices with politics fuel subsidies hamper introduction of clean fuels The economic benefits of an integrated system of clean fuels and vehicles far outweigh the costs. The estimated benefit cost ratios of these programs are 15:1 in the United States, and 20:1 in the PRC Source: Various,

15 10. Case of Indonesia - Fuel Quality Monitoring Report 2007 MOE carried out fuel quality monitoring in gasoline as well as diesel fuel from public gas stations in 30 cities. The gasoline fuel quality sold in Indonesia in 2007 shows an improvement. (average lead content monitored was g/l < 0.013g/l). For Diesel fuel quality, the average sulfur content is 2156 ppm > EURO 2 standard < national standard. Several cities with sulfur content above the required standards of 3500 ppm are Bandar Lampung (3950 ppm), Jayapura (3600 ppm), Manado (3775 ppm), etc. Source: Linda Krisnawati, Ministry of Environment, Indonesia, BAQ
