Macroinvertebrates from a first order stream at Mt Jumbong, Kangwon-do, was examined for their abundance and biomass. Sampling was done by using a pipe sampler (${\phi}$ 20 cm) for 11occasions (n = 5) at 4${\sim}$6 weeks intervals during November 1997 through October 1998. Water temperature and electronic conductivity of the study stream ranged $0\;{\sim}\;14^{\circ}C$ and 15${\sim}$25 ${\mu}s$/cm, respectively. During the study, 53 insect taxa and 3 non-insect taxa were collected. Annual mean number of individuals (${\pm}$1 SD) was 77741${\pm}$69232${\cdot}$m$^{-2}$ ${\cdot}$yr$^{-1}$, being high in winter (${\pm}$1 SD) (December: 171178${\pm}$130468 $m^{-2}$) and low in summer (${\pm}$ 1 SD) (June: 29872${\pm}$13078 $m^{-2}$). Non-predatory subfamilies of Chironomidae and Nemoura sp. occupied 53.3% and 21.8% of annual abundance. Annual mean biomass was 10g${\cdot}$m$^{-2}$${\cdot}$yr$^{-1}$ in ash free dry weight (AFDW), being high in late winter (February: 16 gAFDW $m^{-2}$.) and low in summer (June: 3 gAFDW $m^{-2}$). Gammarus sp. represented 39.8% of the total biomass and was followed by non-predatory subfamilies of Chironomidae (15.2%) and Hydatohylax sp. (8.5%, Limnephilidae: Trichoptera). Since the non-predatory subfamilies of chironomidae were composed of many species, Nemoura sp. was the most abundant taxon. However, Cammarus sp. was surely the most important taxon to the functional aspects of this first order stream ecosystems.

Until early 1980s we have lived without thinking that radon ruins our health. But, scientists knew truth that radon radioactive danger is bedeviling on indoor that we live for a long time. Specially, interest about effect that get in danger and injury for Radon and human body is inactive in our country. Recently, with awareness for Radon contamination, We inform about importance and danger of Radon in some station of the Seoul subway, indoor air of school facilities and We had interest with measure and manages. Usually, Radon gas emitted in base of building enters into indoor through building floor split windage back among radon or indoor air of radon daughter nucleus contamination is increased. Therefore, indoor radon concentration rises as there are a lot of windages between number pipe of top and bottom and base that enter crack from estrangement of the done building floor, underground to indoor. Thus, Radon enters into indoor through architecture resources water as well as, kitchen natural gas for choice etc., but more than about 85% from earth's crust emit. Danger and injury of health by Radon and Radon daughter nucleus that is indicated for cause of lung cancer incerases content of uranium of soil rises specially from inside pit of High area and a mine, cave, hermetical space with house. Safe sub-officer of radon concentration can not know and danger always exists large or small during. So, Important thing reduces danger of lung cancer by lowering concentration of Radon within house and building. Therefore, is thought that need general house Radon concentration measurement, measured Radon concentration monthly using Sintillator radon monitor. Study finding appeared high all underground market 1 year than the ground, and the winter appeared high than the summer. Specially, month that pass over 4pCi in house that United States Environmental Protection Agency advises appeared in underground, and appeared and know Radon exposure gravity by 4 months during 12 months. Therefore, Thinking that establishment and regulation of norm and preparation of reduction countermeasure about Radon are pressing feels, and inform result that measure Radon concentration.

The objectives of the project are to increase farmers' income through GAP and to reduce the loss of agricultural produce, for which the Korean partner takes a role of transferring needed technologies to the project site. To accomplish the project plan, it is set to implement the project with six components: construction of buildings, installation of agricultural facilities, establishment of demonstration farms, dispatching experts, conducting training program in Korea and provision of equipments. The Project Management Committee and the Project Implementation Team are consisted of Korean experts and senior officials from Department of Agriculture, Myanmar that managed the project systematically to ensure the success of the project. The process of the project are; the ceremony of laying the foundation and commencing the construction of training center in April, 2012. The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the completion of GAP Training Center was successfully held under PMC (MOAI, GAPI/ARDC) arrangement in SAl, Naypyitaw on June 17, 2012. The Chairman of GAPI, Dr. Sang Mu Lee, Director General U Kyaw Win of DOA, officials and staff members from Korea and Myanmar, teachers and students from SAl attended the ceremony. The team carried out an inspection and fixing donors' plates on donated project machineries, agro-equipments, vehicles, computers and printer, furniture, tools and so forth. Demonstration farm for paddy rice, fruits and vegetables was laid out in April, 2012. Twenty nine Korean rice varieties and many Korean vegetable varieties were introduced into GAP Project farm to check the suitability of the varieties under Myanmar growing conditions. Paddy was cultivated three times in DAR and twice in SAl. In June 2012, vinyl houses were started to be constructed for raising seedlings and finished in December 2012. Fruit orchard for mango, longan and dragon fruit was established in June, 2012. Vegetables were grown until successful harvest and the harvested produce was used for panel testing and distribution in January 2013. Machineries for postharvest handling systems were imported in November 2012. Setting the washing line for vegetables were finished and the system as run for testing in June 2013. New water tanks, pine lines, pump house and electricity were set up in October 2013.
