    Vehicle Emissions Standards and Inspection and Maintenance: Policy Guidelines for Reducing Vehicle Emissions in Asia

    Asian Development Bank | June 2003
    Abstract
    Air quality problems in Asian cities are increasingly caused or exacerbated by emissions from the growing number of motor vehicles. Appropriate vehicle emissions standards for new and in-use vehicles and a well-designed and operated inspection and maintenance (I/M) program are important elements of an overall strategy to reduce vehicle emissions and air pollution. As part of its Regional Technical Assistance (RETA) project to reduce motor vehicle air pollution, Asian Development Bank (ADB) organized a workshop on vehicle emissions standards and strengthening vehicle inspection and maintenance programs. The workshop was held in Chongqing, People's Republic of China on 7-9 November 2001. The Policy Guidelines on Vehicle Emissions Standards and Inspection and Maintenance summarize the most important policy conclusions and recommendations from the workshop.

      Integrated Action Plan to Reduce Vehicle Emissions in Viet Nam 

      Asian Development Bank (Asian Development Bank, 2002-03-15)
      Pollution from mobile emission sources is a growing environmental problem in Viet Nam. These emissions tend to be concentrated in cities where vehicle quantity and use are highest, and have resulted in deteriorating air quality. Air pollution is also concentrated along traffic thoroughfares and adjacent locales where people live and work, and is particularly high in areas with high motorcycle numbers ...
