Comments for An Diem 2:

1. Give in alternative 2, if the project location's infrastructure is
capable to service a fossil fuel power plant, does that means that
alternative 2 will be a baseline?

2. At current there are many projects undergoing validation process in
Vietnam. All these projects have different emission factor. How was the
emission factor of your project activity been deemed the most accurate as
the data available in the PDD was not able to be replicated.

3. CDM early consideration, there were no evidence that "In 2004, the project owner was informed about CDM via the public awareness activities conducted by
Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (the DNA recently)as the PDD said in page 19" and futhermore, "On 20 January 2006, the minutes of the negotiation with a
CDM consultant was signed" however, the CDM consultant in A3 is Energy and Environment Consultancy Joint Stock Company, but in fact, this CDM consultant was first business registerd on only 29 July 2006 ( data provied by business registration department of Hanoi Authority for planning and investment with the link: http://www.hapi.gov.vn/portals/default.aspx?portalid=11&tabid=146&action=view&enpid=0103013853)

4. what the base to define that the Required return on equity rate was calculated as 22.40%
