The rapidly developing economies of Southeast Asia are being targeted as markets for nuclear power. Alternative views are difficult to hear above the noise of nuclear industry advocates. A critical issue for the region is the desirability of an energy technology that has been thoroughly tested and progressively rejected by the developed world. The region's policy-makers need to have all available information about the benefits and costs--of nuclear power in order to make an informed decision This article seeks to outline concerns about nuclear power in Southeast Asia. It is suggested that given its many unresolved environmental problems, economic disbenefits and political risks, nuclear power is not a desirable development for the states of Southeast Asia.
