0 Maron, Kuta van Java

Sun began to creep out the earth, and changed the night berdeburan waves reflect loyalty to continue to return to caress the beach. Breezy winds and jump penetrate kesela between rambutku. Yah, kekangenan will tour the coast in Semarang Maron make the beach become one of the alternative perjalananku tense. But do not expect too high will meet keindah beaches such as Kuta beach in Bali. Can play in the sand on the beach and swimming at the edge of the beach is enough for the fun and who can not swim do not need to worry, there is a booth rent or if the ban want to get more sensation sea can rent a boat that will take us around Maron.
Maron Beach is located in the western city of Semarang, the location can be from two directions, namely from Ahmad Yani Airport or from the Housing Graha Padma, Krapyak. The approximate distance of 3 km from the road we have reached the location. Streets are still the form of land padas hard white, if some rain will change the way tarnish so slippery and even now still continue to do development. However, the street Maron Beach also offers a distinctive beauty. Paving the broad nature will feel very beautiful when the sky being blue. Moreover, any time we can also see that the aircraft offshore base and landed in the Ahmad Yani Airport.
Maron own name because people say this beach is still owned by Aviation TNI Angkatan Darat (Penerbad), because red is the color maron typical beret Penerbad, the beach is called Pantai Maron. Was not clear who is managing the beach Maron. Clear that each entry beach Maron we just pay the 2-thousand dollar, the cost for parking.
If the North Sea coast usually is pitched as many coral stone or storm waves on the beach such as the Marina, but on the beach Maron of land and sand. Pasirnya nearly as in Bali, not just the color white. Perhaps because of that, the beach atmosphere really can be perceived, though rarely found, such as the beauty of waves in the beaches in the area of Bali and Yogyakarta.
Besides the beautiful beach, we can also enjoy the culinary variety. Long row of stalls is located not far from the mouth is very easy for visitors to the beach that if you want to fill the stomach feels hungry. Menu is also available quite diverse, ranging from fried rice, fried noodles, soto, meatball, chicken noodles, chicken sate, sate goats, and other various menu. But it seems to be the chicken sate the most widely offered.
If visiting the beach Maron on Saturday Afternoon, Sunday Morning, Sunday Afternoon, or holidays, can be a traveler coming very much. Even less can be said is not the number of tourist Parangtritis in Yogyakarta or Bali Kuta. Almost every corner of the beach and stall-stall by the beach full of visitors. But the unfortunate lack of care environment makes Beach Maron looks less clear. Many waste-waste that are visible in the corners beach. If only more clean beach Maron of tourism can be a mainstay of Semarang.
But the number of parties who have claimed authority over Maron Beach, making the management of tourism object terawat and is not prone to conflict. Therefore, the City Government (Pemkot) Semarang are requested to immediately step in to take over management of the coastal location borders between West and Semarang District Tugu is.

0 Small people who decrease over

Finally, the government decided to lower the price of fuel began on 1 December 2008. But the more surprising, the date 15 days in the same government back down the fuel price, from Rp 6,000 to Rp 5,500 and come down again to Rp 5000, also followed by a decrease in the price of diesel fuel from Rp 5,500 to Rp 4,800. History in the new Indonesian government was carved SBY-JK in the final period of occupation. Well, this time the new fuel price decrease even up to 2 times, although it could not be denied is the decline in crude oil prices anjloknya world. However, many other things smell of policy. The decline in the price of fuel (premium and diesel fuel) with the cargo political conditions that he said only to the SBY-JK Pamor we know where the 2009 election is near, but not the oil prices are down and the government has rightly lower fuel prices. Even if Indonesia still funny maintain price when other countries began to adjust to the decline in world oil. Kenyatannya many parties are individuals and groups who have used this period to seek support, which may be mengelu welcome their fate as the savior of the people with a lower fuel price with the hope prices will follow basic down. But what may be the price of basic needs have increased terlanjur would go down? The price is already above comfortable ride?

According to the government, the decline in the price of fuel, decided yesterday to consider three things. Namely, increasing purchasing power and the public the real sector, and maintain the psychological condition of the community. In addition, the government will provide compensation to the owner SPBU. The decline in oil prices could harm the owner SPBU, who fill the stock, especially with the price of fuel long before the announcement that the new price.
The government assumes the policy effectively push up the flagging economy due to the impact of the blood of the global financial crisis and a decrease in fuel price can strengthen the public purchasing power.

But to this day there is no change in the price range of basic needs, even before the Christmas and New Year, the price is likely to make slow rise. This is indeed contrary to earlier expectations. But with the decline in premium and diesel fuel is, at least, can trigger the movement of the real sector community.
For logikanya, the impact of fuel price reduction in the economic sector activities have started the road, though not all affected by a decrease in fuel price, but the fact is some other sectors is still heavy, especially the price of tools and spare parts plant that berimbas services on land and sea transport .
Now it is seen that transport operators complained that the expensive spare part, so that they can not respond keingingan people to reduce public transport fares. For the community itself, the decline in the price premium of silver in 1000 almost no influence in their lives in general. Clearly, the prices of living needs have increased since terlanjur increased fuel first.

So why the decline is only include premium and diesel fuel only, which is a consumption society notabene middle-end? For many people the government decision that does not stand on the people remember the type of premium fuel and diesel fuel consumed by kebanyan the types of personal vehicles so that the government decision in lower fuel prices will not affect any of the national economic conditions, alias only benefit certain parties. The more appropriate if the price of oil is consumed most of the small community is revealed?
Government berkelit that oil is getting a large subsidy, because the actual price of Rp 8000, but sold only Rp 2,500. Even small people blame the government as the largest user of oil as the cause of the land of the government budget deficit. Yah the people who always dikambing hitamkan, why the government is not pressing the consumption of premium, which is preposterous consumed by private vehicle owners?
See how many private vehicles on the street? You can estimate how much money the state used for the subsidy was enjoyed only certain groups of people.

0 The Network Of The Computer

What the network of the computer?

The network of the Computer could be interpreted as an association of the interconnection of several autonomous computers. Two computers it was said formed some network when both of them could change mutual information. The restriction on the autonomous term here was to distinguish with the master's system/slave. When a computer could make the other computer active or not active and controlled him, then this computer computer was not autonomous. A system with the manager's unit (control the unit) and several other computers that was slave not a network; the big computer with re-beads printer and the terminal also not a network.

The benefit of the Network of the Computer
Generally, the network had several benefits that more compared with the independent computer and the business world again admitted that access to modern information technology always had the competitive superiority compared with the competitor who was limited in the technological field.
The network enabled the management of resources to be more efficient. For example, many users could share with each other printer single with the high quality, was compared used printer the low quality in respectively the working table. Moreover, the licence of network software could be cheaper compared with the licence stand-alone was separated for the number of same users.
The network helped maintained information so that continue to andal and up-to-date. The storage system of the data was focussed that was managed well enabled many users mengaskses the data from various different locations, and restricted access to the data when being processed.
The network helped sped up the process of sharing the data (the data sharing).
The transfer of the data in the network was always faster compared with means of sharing the other data that not the network.
The network enabled the working group to communicate with more efficient. The letter and delivery the message of electronics.

There were three types of the general network that was used in part:
* the Network WorkGroup,
* the Lan Network,
* the Wan Network

The Workgroup network
This network consisted of several computer units that were connected by using Network Interface Card or that normally is mentioned with Local Area Network Card, as well as by using the BNC cable and UTP. Semua the computer unit that terhubung could access the data from the other computer unit but also could do print document in printer that terhubung with the other computer unit. The Workgroup Network profit. The exchange file could be carried out easily (File Sharing). The use printer could be carried out by all the computer units (Printer Sharing). Data access from/to the other computer unit could in restricted with the level of the security in password that was given. Communication could be between the employee carried out by using the E-mail & Chat. When one of the computer units terhubung with the modem, then all or some computer units in this network could access to the network of the Internet or sent fax through 1 modem.

The LAN network
LAN (Local Area Network) was a computer collection, where being gotten by several computer units (client) and 1 computer unit for the data bank (server). Antara was their respective client and between client and server could change each other file and used each other printer that terhubung in computer units that terhubung in the network of LAN. Berdasarkan the cable that was used ,ada two LAN network instructions, that is and the BNC cable and the UTP cable.

The LAN network profit:
The exchange file could be carried out easily (File Sharing). The use printer could be carried out by all client (Printer Sharing). File-file the data could be kept in server, so as the data could be accessed from all client according to the security's authorisation from all the employees, who could be made be based on the structure of the organisation of the company so as the security of the data was guaranteed. File the data that went out/entered from/to server could in the control. The process backed up the data to more was easy and fast. The risk of losing the data by the computer virus became very very small. Communication could be between the employee carried out by using the E-mail & Chat. When some client/server terhubung with the modem, then all or some computers in the LAN network could access to the network of the Internet or sent fax through 1 modem.

The WAN network
WAN (Wide Area Network) was the collection from LAN and/or Workgroup that was connected by using the modem communications equipment and the network of the Internet, from/to the head office and the branch office, and between the branch office. With this network system, the exchange of the data could be between the office carried out quickly as well as at a cost of that was relatively cheap. This network system could use the network of the available Internet, to connect between the head office and the branch office or and PC Stand Alone/Notebook that was in other the city or the country.

The WAN network profit:
Server the head office could function as the data bank from the branch office. Communication could between the office use the E-mail & Chat. The document/File that usually is sent through fax or the package of the post, could be sent through the E-mail and the Transfer file from/to the head office and the branch office at a cost of that was relatively cheap and in a period of that was very fast. Pooling Data and Updating Data could be between the office done every day when that was determined.

0 Network Hardware

Hardware that was needed in some network really depended in konfigursi that was used to compile network, the kind of the data of the transmission media, as well as big the small size of the range network.

Generally some network needed hardware as follows:
• Server
• Workstation
• NIC (Network Interface Card)
• Hub/Konsentrator
• Brigde
• Switch
• Repeater
• Router
• Sistem kabel

SERVER
Server was the computer have a speed high with the memory capacity (RAM) and big savings, and was connected with antarmuka the fast network (fast network interface). The system of the network operation worked to this computer, with application software and file the data that was needed.

Workstation

All the computers that terhubung to server in the network was mentioned with workstation. Workstation was the standard computer of the computer that dikonfigurasi menggunkan the card antarmuka the network, network software and cables that were needed. Workstation not always membutuhknan floppy the disk or harddisk because file could be kept in server.

NIC (Network Interface Card)
NIC was pealatan that enabled the occurrence of relations between network and the computer workstation or network with the computer server. Most of NIC were internal equipment that was installed in slot the expansion in the good computer slot Isa's expansion or slot the expansion of PCI. Bahkan to several mainboard the computer, NIC put on in an onboard manner meaning that joining with mainboard.

Hub/Konsentrator
Hub was the element was most important in LAN. Hub was the centre of the connection all node in the network as well as all the networks was connected one with that was other went through Hub. Hub acted as the manager's point for the activity of the system, the management as well as the development of the network.

Bridge
Bridge was the implement that enabled to divide a network that was big into two smaller networks, so as to become the more efficient network.

Switch
Switch was the implement that was used to connect several of LAN that was separated as well as provided the package filter between LAN. Switch LAN was equipment multiport, each one could support one workstation or all ethernet.

Repeater
When a sign passed by along the cable, this sign tended experienced the decline in the strength or the power. Repeater was the implement that could strengthen (boost) the sign of the network that crossed him.
Router
Router was used to change information from some network to network that was other. Router resembled smart bridge (superitellegent bridge).

The Cable System
The cable could be as the most protected transmission media categorised in two main groups that is:
a. The electric escort (electrical conductor)
b. Optic Fibre (fibre optic)
Respectively the category had many variasi. The cable that was grouped in the category of the electric escort that is TP (twisted-scanned) and coaxial (coaxial).
Along with this was given several illustrations of the cable :
1.The Koaksial cable
2.The STP cable
3.The TP cable
4.The UTP cable
5.The connector RJ45
6.The BNC connector
7.The Spare cable Optics

HARDWARE
That is all supportive equipment the computerisation system that worked together. Generally Hardware consist of:
a. Input Device
That is the implement that was used to receive put the data and the program that will be processed in the computer. The example: Keyboard, Mouse, Light Pen, Touch Screen (the Screen touched), Scanner, OCR Tag Reader (Often was used in self-service), Digital Camera, Disk.
b. Process Device
That is the implement that was used to process the data that was put into the computer. The example: CPU (Central Processing Unit) CPU (Central Processing Unit) was the main part of a component that was responsible for on the guidance of all the activity of computer parts, also having a function of carrying out the process of the calculation and logic.

There were 3 main CPU parts that is:
1. Control the Unit (CU) the Task from CU (Control the Unit) was:
§ Arrange and mengendalaikan the equipment input and output
§ Take intruksi-instruction from playing Memory
§ sent the instruction to Arithmatic and Logic Unit
§ kept results of the process to played Memory

2. Arithmatic And Logic Unit (ALU)
the main Task did Arithmatic And Logic Unit (the PESTLE) was to carry out the calculation operation of mathematics and logic that happened appropriate intruksi the program.

3. Play Memory/Internal Storage/Temporary Storage
The function: to keep the data and the instruction that were needed in the process of the processing by the computer.

Memory or Internal Storage was distinguished to 2 kinds, that is:
a. ROM ( Read Only Memory )
§ Memori that only could dibaca
§ Data was permanent, meaning that the data and the program could not be removed, increased or reduced as well as continued to be although the computer was killed.
§ Penulisan of the data to CREAM was done by the manufacturer's factory of the computer.

b. RAM ( Random Access Memory )
§ Memori that could be read and ditulisi § Data his characteristics were not permanent, meaning that if electricity was out the data will vanish, except when the data has been kept in External Storage (the disk) § Penulisan of the data was to RAM done through keyboard.

c. Output Device ( Peralatan Keluaran )
That is equipment that was used to dismiss results of the processing by the computer.

Results of the processing by the computer could be distinguished in 4 form sorts, that is:
1. The article that consisted of the letter, the figure, the special character, and other symbols.
2. The image, in a form of the graph or gambar
3. The voice, dlam the form of music or omongan
4. The form that could be read by the machine and was understood by the computer

The implement output was distinguished by above 3 kinds, that is:
1. Hard Copy Device, the implement that was used to print the article (the letter, the figure, the special character and other symbols) as well as the image to the hard media.
The example: Printer

2. Soft Copy Device, the implement that was used to put forward or produce the article (the letter, the figure, the special character and other symbols), the voice as well as the image to the soft media take the form of signal electronics.
The example: the Monitor, speaker

3. Drive device or driver, the implement that was used to record the symbol in betuk that only could be read by the machine to the disk media or fermented magnetic.
The example: the Disk drive, fermented drive

0 Modem

Modem (Modulator-Demodulator) was equipment that today often is used to carry out the connection to the internet, especially through the telephone channel. Physically, the modem could be distinguished as the internal modem and the external modem. By that, we knew the distribution to be based on the speed and his procedure, that take the form of software or hardware the modem. There were several distributions again that his characteristics were more technical, like error control, the data compression protocol, et cetera, but the distribution of this kind will not be discussed by us in this article.

The Eksternal modem and Internal

Like was drawn from his name, external modem equipment was outside CPU. Modem external was connected to CPU through port COM or USB. Modem this kind usually uses the source of the tension was separated took the form of the adaptor. The use profit of this kind modem was portabilitas him that was good enough so as easy was moved-moved to be used in the other computer. By that by using the external modem, might not be slot the expansion that was sacrificed so as to be able to be used for the other need, especially if mainboard that was used only provided a little slot the expansion. The external modem was also supplemented with indicator light that facilitated us to monitor the status of the modem. His loss, his price was more expensive compared with the internal modem. The external modem also needed the special place to place him despite small.

Was different from the external modem, the internal modem was installed directly in CPU. physically the internal modem took the form of one card that tertancap to some slot the expansion in mainboard, usually in slot Isa or PCI. Penggunaan of this kind modem had several profits, including being more frugal the place and from the aspect of the price was more economical compared with the external modem. Because of being installed in CPU, then this kind modem did not need the adaptor as in the case of the external modem so as the system was apparently briefer without having many milling cables that could give the impression was not neater. Nevertheless, the internal modem had the weakness took the form of the nonexistence of the indicator as that could be met to the external modem. As a result rather was difficult to monitor the status of the modem (although could be carried out through software). Moreover, the internal modem did not use the source of the tension personally until must be rationed from power supply to CPU. Panas from components in the series of the internal modem also will increase the temperature in the CPU box.

The speed of Modem

Speed of a modem was measured with the unit bps (bit per second) or Kbps (kilobit per second). The size varied, between 300 bps and 56,6 Kbps, but the general speed is used today revolved between 14,4 and 56,6 Kbps. It was increasingly high that his speed was definitely increasingly good because of shortening connection time and saving the telephone credit cost. The speed of the connection also really depended on the quality of the telephone channel that was used. The modem 56,6 Kbps usually very rare could achieve the speed of his peak. Generally the fastest connection that could be achieved through the conventional telephone channel was revolving between 45-50 Kbps to downstream, depended the distance from the centre of the telephone channel that was used (increasingly close definitely increasingly good), whereas to upstream maximal only as big as 33.6 Kbps. This was linked with the limitations of the telephone channel that indeed basically was not drafted for data communication have a speed high.

The modem was based on Hardware and Software
Apart from the two distributions above, we also knew the term hardware or software the modem. The modem that worked in a hardware manner used chip especially to handle functions of data communication, whereas in software the modem, this work was taken over by a program driver.

The use software the modem will be enough to load the CPU work, and therefore definitely needed the system with processor that was fast (was suggested minimal used processor Pentium 200 MHz). The decline in the performance would really was felt when using this kind modem. A machine was based on Celeron 400 for example, only could work was proper for PC Pentium Classic during online with make use of software the modem. Physically almost did not have the characteristics that menyolok that distinguished between the two modem kinds. Nevertheless, today almost all the internal modem was based on PCI available in the market was software the modem. This kind modem is generally sold with the price that was far more cheaper compared with the based modem hardware.

Because of the availability factor driver, then software the modem generally only could work in the OS Windows environment so as this modem kind also often was acknowledged as Winmodem. His profit lately several producers gave the support for Linux for software their output modem.

The meaning of the Eksternal Modem

OH Indicator: Off Hook
Meaning that that the modem was working. If the telephone set, OH will be on when the handle was lifted and died when the handle was placed.

CD: Carrier Detect
Meaning that whether being carrier that was sent from the modem that was contacted or not. When having the connection with the other modem, CD light will be switched on.

AA: the Answer
Fasilitas car the modem that could answer automatically the call from the other modem. If the AA indicator was on, the modem could do handshaking automatically.
EC: Error Control
Fasility the modem for the correction error. The EC indicator that was on showed correction facilities error the modem was active.

TD: Transmit Data
Indikator that will be on when the modem was sending the data. Rd: Receive Data Indikator that will be on when the modem accepted the data.

DTR: the Terminal Ready
Indikator Data that showed the modem was ready to be used to carry out the connection to the other modem

0 Market share

Market share, in strategic management and marketing, is the percentage or proportion of the total available market or market segment that is being serviced by a company.

It can be expressed as a company's sales revenue (from that market) divided by the total sales revenue available in that market. It can also be expressed as a company's unit sales volume (in a market) divided by the total volume of units sold in that market. It is generally necessary to commission market research (generally desk/secondary research, although sometimes primary research) to estimate the total market size and a company's market share.

Increasing market share is one of the most important objectives used in business. The main advantage of using market share is that it abstracts from industry-wide macroenvironmental variables such as the state of the economy, or changes in tax policy. According to the national environment, the respective share of different companies changes and hence this causes change in the share market values; the reason can be political ups and downs, any disaster, any happening or mis-happening.

Other objectives include return on investment (ROI), return on assets (ROA), and target rate of profit. Market share has the potential to increase profits as profit leads to more customers with a higher demand for a particular product.

0 Strategic planning

Strategic planning is an organization's process of defining its strategy, or direction, and making decisions on allocating its resources to pursue this strategy, including its capital and people. Various business analysis techniques can be used in strategic planning, including SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats ) and PEST analysis (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological analysis).

Strategies are different from tactics in that:

1. They are proactive and not re-active as tactics are.

2. They are internal in source and the business venture has absolute control over its application.

3. Strategy can only be applied once, after that it is process of application with no unique element remaining.

4. The outcome is normally a strategic plan which is used as guidance to define functional and divisional plans, including Technology, Marketing, etc.

Strategic planning is the formal consideration of an organization's future course. All strategic planning deals with at least one of three key questions:

1. "What do we do?"
2. "For whom do we do it?"
3. "How do we excel?"

In business strategic planning, the third question is better phrased "How can we beat or avoid competition?". (Bradford and Duncan, page 1).

In many organizations, this is viewed as a process for determining where an organization is going over the next year or more -typically 3 to 5 years, although some extend their vision to 20 years.

In order to determine where it is going, the organization needs to know exactly where it stands, then determine where it wants to go and how it will get there. The resulting document is called the "strategic plan".

It is also true that strategic planning may be a tool for effectively plotting the direction of a company; however, strategic planning itself cannot foretell exactly how the market will evolve and what issues will surface in the coming days in order to plan your organizational strategy. Therefore, strategic innovation and tinkering with the 'strategic plan' have to be a cornerstone strategy for an organization to survive the turbulent business climate.

0 Motivation

Do you know the definition of motivation? More importantly, do you know why you need to know.

Have you ever found it hard to do something that needed to be done? Have you ever had a hard time getting others to do or accomplish necessary tasks? Would you like to take charge of your own life or help others take charge of theirs?
The difference or gap between what needs to be done and what is not being done can be closed using motivation.

In public speaking motivation is defined as communicating to an internal force that actuates a behavioral pattern, thought process, action or reaction. Negative forces or positive forces can act as actuators. In general it could include but is not limited to the use of words, circumstances, situations, and external and internal forces.

When used effectively by a speaker, this force can help individuals or groups work toward common goals and reach them. This means you can help individuals work toward a goal.

Application of the definition of motivation is varied by socio-economic groups, culture, background, and the neural programming of our brains.

Negative and positive motivational forces could include coercion, desire, fear, influence and need. Depending on how coercion, fear and influence are framed, they could be either negative or positive forces that act as actuators. For instance a fear (negative force) of bodily injury could be a motivation to implement the use of safety equipment (positive force).

Intrinsic or Extrinsic

These forces can be either intrinsic or extrinsic. Intrinsic is when the force comes from within oneself. Extrinsic is when the external forces, positive or negative, produce a behavioral change.

Definition of Motivation of the Extrinsic Kind

Extrinsic motivation would include circumstances, situations, rewards or punishment, both tangible and intangible that participation in results in an external benefit.

Tangible benefits could include monetary reward or a prize. Intangible could include things like adoration, recognition, and praise.

Definition of Motivation of the Intrinsic Kind

Intrinsic motivation would include involvement in behavioral pattern, thought process, action, activity or reaction for its own sake and without an obvious external incentive for doing so. A hobby is an example.

If you are desirous of mastering public speaking for the sake of mastery and not any reward, you have experienced intrinsic motivation.

In addition to forces that produce an actuation, there is a need to have the ability to fulfill the motivation.

For example, a paraplegic may have the desire to get out of a wheelchair and walk, but lacks the ability.

Definition of Motivation of the Neural Kind

Neuro-linguistic Programming is another way of accessing the mental actuator which helps the person change the way they think resulting in changed behavior.

Essentially, Neuro-linguistic Programming actuates a behavior through a change in the mental process. It could be considered a biological change as it involves creating a new thought process complete with new neural synaptic connections. It yields the same result as other motivations only by a different means.

It is an intrinsic form of change. Unlike other motivations, it could be likened to running a new program rather than putting a patch or removing a virus on an existing mental program our brains run on.

1 Build-Operate-Transfer

Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) is a form of project financing, wherein a private entity receives a concession from the private or public sector to finance, design, construct, and operate a facility for a specified period, often as long as 20 or 30 years. After the concession period ends, ownership is transferred back to the granting entity.

During the concession the project proponent is allowed to charge the users of the facility appropriate tolls, fees, rentals, and charges stated in the concession contract. This enables the project proponent to recover its investment, operating and maintenance expenses in the project. Due to the long-term nature of the arrangement, the fees are usually raised during the concession period. The rate of increase is often tied to a combination of internal and external variables, allowing the proponent to reach a satisfactory internal rate of return for its investment.

Examples of countries using BOT are India, Croatia, Japan, Taiwan (Republic of China), Malaysia, Philippines and Hong Kong. However, in some countries, such as Canada and New Zealand, the term used is Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT). Recently, in the United States, BOT strategies are being considered for construction of portions of Interstate 69, with groundbreaking on the Southern Indiana Toll Road segment expected to begin in 2008.

Traditionally, such projects provide for the infrastructure to be transferred to the government at the end of the concession period. (in Australia, primarily for reasons related to the borrowing powers of states, the transfer obligation is omitted).

BOT is a type of project financing. The hallmarks of project financing are:

(i) The lenders to the project look primarily at the earnings of the project as the source from which loan repayments will be made. Their credit assessment is based on the project, not on the credit worthiness of the borrowing entity.

(ii) The security taken by the lenders is largely confined to the project assets. As such, project financing is often referred to as "limited recourse" financing because lenders are given only a limited recourse against the borrower.

Most project finance structures are complex. The risks in the project are spread between the various parties; each risk is usually assumed by the party which can most efficiently and cost-effectively control or handle it.

Once the project's risks are identified, the likelihood of their occurrence assessed and their impact on the project determined, the sponsor must allocate those risks. Briefly, its options are to absorb the risk, lay off the risk with third parties, such as insurers, or allocate the risk among contractors and lenders. The sponsor will be acting, more often than not, on behalf of a sponsor at a time when the equity participants are unknown. Nevertheless, each of the participants in the project must be satisfied with the risk allocation, the creditworthiness of the risk taker and the reward that flows to the party taking the risk. In this respect, each party takes a quasi equity risk in the project.
