| Abstract: | Semua negara pasti memliki sistem perpajakan yang beda. Pajak sendiri berfungsi sebagai guna membiayai pengeluaran – perngeluaran, pajak juga bermanfaat untuk digunakan dalam melakukan pembangunan hingga membayar gaji pegawai negeri. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah guna mengedukasi masyarakat tentang sistem yang ada dalam pemungutan pajak serta mekanisme dalam pemungutan pajak tersebut. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan berdasarkan masalah yang diteliti adalah penelitian kualitatif. Pajak sendiri merupakan sumber penerimaan negara yang utama. Semakin hari peranan penerimaan pajak bagi pembiayaan umum atau negara semakin besar. Maka sistem pemungutan pajak adalah suatu cara yang dipakai untuk menghitung besarnya pajak yang perlu dibayarkan kepada negara. Hasil penelitian ini sistem pemungutan pajak di Indonesia sepenuhnya bersifat self assesment system. Serta Masalah sistem perpajakan yang berlaku di Indonesia dapat ditelusuri kembali ke rendahnya kesadaran hukum masyarakat Indonesia. Wajib pajak memanfaatkan peluang yang ditawarkan oleh sistem self-assessment ini. Undang-undang yang memperlakukan wajib pajak secara self assessment system kurang kesadaran hukum wajib pajak, lemahnya pengawasan, dan belum optimalnya penerapan sanksi bagi wajib pajak yang melanggarnya. Pengawasan sebelumnya belum berjalan maksimal, dan sanksi bagi Wajib Pajak yang ternyata melakukan atau melakukan pelanggaran perpajakan masih sangat lemah. |

| Abstract: | Peluang dari industri kakao ini cukup besar sehingga dengan adanya Technopreneurship yang diterapkan mampu meningkatkan pendapatan dan kemakmuran petani kakao. Target pasar perusahaan adalah bagian terbatas dari industri yang dituju atau dicoba untuk menarik pada titik waktu tertentu. Kebanyakan perusahaan tidak mencoba untuk melayani seluruh industri mereka. Sebaliknya, mereka fokus melayani porsi pasar yang terspesialisasi dengan baik. |

| Abstract: | This study aims to examine empirically the factors that influence investment efficiency in State-Owned Enterprises on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This study was tested with two independent variables are managerial overconfidence and corporate governance, intervening variable is internal financing. The object of this research is the state-owned company for the period 2011-2018. 10 companies as the sample using purposive sampling technique. The analysis used in this research is panel data regression analysis. The results of this study found that investment efficiency in state-owned enterprises in Indonesia is largely determined by managerial overconfidence bias. Managers who have an overconfidence seek more aggressive and risky ventures so that they invest excessively beyond optimal levels. Managerial overconfidence in a manager can also strengthen the choice of internal financing, especially in state-owned companies. However, investment efficiency in this study is not influenced by corporate governance and internal financing. Corporate governance has also proven to have no role in corporate funding decisions. The role of internal financing as mediation was not found in this study. |

Maraknya penggunaan teknologi pada bisnis mendorong para pebisnis untuk terus mengembangkan teknologi yang dapat memberikan manfaat bagi perusahaan dan menggunakannya seefektif mungkin dalam proses bisnis. Persaingan dalam dunia bisnis merupakan hal utama yang dilakukan oleh seorang manajemen untuk dapat bertahan dan mempertahankan perusahaan bisnis supaya sebuah perusahaan terus berkelanjutan dan berkembang yang bertujuan untuk memenuhi sebuah kepuasan pelanggan. Perusahaan yang dapat menghasilkan produk maupun jasa, selalu memfokuskan pada ketergantungan pelanggan, kualitas, dan nilai untuk membangun citra positif pada pelanggan perusahaan. Dengan implementasi teknologi kedalam pelayanan, pelayanan yang tadinya konvensional menjadi pelayanan elektronik (E–service quality) yang diharapkan untuk mempercepat proses bisnis. Citra perusahaan yang baik dan kuat yang memiliki jangka menengah dan panjang daya saing; menjadi tameng selama masa krisis, menarik eksekutif yang andal, di mana eksekutif yang andal adalah aset perusahaan; meningkatkan efektivitas strategi pemasaran, menghemat pada biaya operasional akan menguntungkan bagi perusahaan untuk mengetahui apa yangpersepsi pelanggan tentang teknologi ini terutama dalam hal peningkatan kualitas layanan berbasis elektronik dan citra perusahaan. Di Indonesia sendiri, salah satu implementasi yang paling terlihat adalah implementasi teknologi e-commerce. Pada tahun 2015, Indonesia telah menjadi pasar ecommerce terbesar diseluruh Asia Tenggara. |

| Abstract: | Flash flood is the most devastating natural disaster experienced in Malaysia. It can be defined as any high water flow caused by various factors such as rainstorms, slow water runoff , and broken dams. In Malaysia, the most typical and disruptive hydro-meteorological occurrences are flash floods, which are mostly faced by Malaysian cities including Kuala Lumpur and Kajang. However, flash floods may occur at any time of the year rather than during monsoon and can result in devastating losses and damages. Thus, several mitigation steps and estimations are warranted to handle flash floods, especially at the city level. Hence, this paper estimated the amount of direct loss and damage due to flash floods on the basis of the commercial area of Kajang City. This empirical study used primary data collected through direct face-to-face semi-structured interviews with 41 businessmen in the study area. The average estimated overall losses and damages per shop was RM4,510.07 due to flash floods at Kajang City in 2014, wherein the significant contribution comes from the economic side. This study's findings can serve as the baseline information for future studies on flash flood losses and damages. Furthermore, the present study suggests extensive institutional research for estimating losses and damages due to flash floods at the country level as an adaptation strategy. |

| Abstract: | Landslides represent one of the world's most dangerous and widespread risks, annually causing thousands of deaths and billions of dollars worth of damage. Building on and around hilly areas in many regions has increased, and it poses a severe threat to the physical infrastructure and people living within such zones. Quantitative assessment of social vulnerability in Malaysia is worrying because it has been given less attention than hazard-related studies. Therefore, this study's objective is to find out the indicators used for social vulnerability assessment in the context of a landslide in Malaysia. The analysis is critical for understanding the measures of social vulnerability, given that the incorporation of climate change and disaster risk mitigation issues in urban planning and management are considered priorities in ensuring a stable population growth and avoiding economic disruption. A systematic study on the Scopus and Web of Science repositories was conducted based on the PRISMA Report analysis method. This article concluded that there are six important indicators of social vulnerability in the context of landslide in Malaysia. |

| Abstract: | A large literature points towards the importance of early life circumstance in determining long-run human capital and wellbeing outcomes. This literature often justifies a focus on the very early years by citing the first 1000 days of life as a 'critical period' for child development, but this notion has rarely been directly tested. In a setting in which children are potentially subject to shocks in every year of their childhood, I estimate the impact of early life weather shocks on adult cognitive and socioemotional outcomes for individuals born in rural Indonesia between 1988 and 2000. There is a strong critical period for these shocks at age 2 for cognitive development, but no similar critical period for socioemotional development. The impacts of the shocks are likely to be taking place through nutritional and agricultural income channels. These impacts are initially latent, only appearing after age 15. I show suggestive evidence for dynamic complementarity in early life investments. |

| Abstract: | [The article is written in Bahasa Malaysia] Reading habits are often associated with an increased cognitive level. However, book genre can also affect the cognitive level. This is because different book genres can be attributed to different type of knowledge and tendency towards a specific book genre can be viewed as a preference toward a specific type of knowledge. Research on Malaysian’s interest and the tendency towards book genre and type of knowledge can be investigated using the publication data of each book genre and its prices. The objective of this research is to analyze and compare the book publications and the average price of each book’s genre in Malaysia with Japan. Comparison was done based on book categorization genre strategy to 12 book genre. Based on Monte Carlo simulation method data, Malaysians are attracted to book genre on Language, literature, and science. While the Japanese are more interested in the book genre of social sciences and hobbies/art. The similarity between Malaysian and Japanese are that both societies also favors book genre of literature. However, it is possible that the themes of literary genre in Japan and Malaysia are very different. The result of this study can be used to identify the differences between Malaysian and Japanese reading habits as well as used for formulating strategies to changed Malaysian reading habits toward the style of Japanese reading habits. |

| Abstract: | pendahuluan Kepemerintahan yang baik (good governance) merupakan isu yang paling menemuka dalam pengelolaan administrasi publik saat ini. Prasetyantoko (2008) mengatakan bahwa untuk meningkatkan kinerja perlu diterapkannya prinsip good governance. Apabila aparatur pemerintah dalam memberikan pelayanan publik sesuai dengan prinsip good governance maka pemberian pelayanan publik tersebut sudah maksimal dalam kegiatannya. (Cahyadi et al., 2016) Konsep good governance muncul karenaadanya ketidakpuasan pada kinerja pemerintahan yang selama ini dipercaya sebagai penyelenggara urusan publik. Menerapkan praktik good governance dapat dilakukan secara bertahap sesuai dengan kapasitas pemerintah, masyarakat sipil, dan mekanisme pasar. Salah satu pilihan strategis untuk menerapkan good governance di Indonesia adalah melalui penyelenggaraan pelayanan publik. Pelayanan publik menjadi tolok ukur keberhasilan pelaksanaan tugas dan pengukuran kinerja pemerintah melalui birokrasi. Pelayanan publik sebagai penggerak utama juga dianggap penting oleh semua aktor dari unsur good governance. Para pejabat publik, unsur-unsur dalam masyarakat sipil dan dunia usaha sama-sama memiliki kepentingan terhadap perbaikan kinerja pelayanan publik. Ada tiga alasan penting yang melatarbelakangi bahwa pembaharuan pelayanan publik dapat mendorong praktik good governance di Indonesia. Pertama, perbaikan kinerja pelayanan publik dinilai penting oleh stakeholders, yaitu pemerintah, warga, dan sektor usaha. Kedua. Pelayanan publik adalah ranah dari ketiga unsur governance melakukan interaksi yang sangat intensif. Ketiga, nilai-nilai yang selama ini mencirikan praktik good governance diterjemahkan secara lebih mudah dan nyata melalui pelayanan public.(Amalia, 2018) Pemimpin adalah bagaimana iadapat menggerakkan para bawahannya agar senantiasa mau dan bersedia mengerahkan kemampuannya yang terbaik untuk kepentingan kelompok atau organisasi.(Irwan et al., 2019) “Fasilitas atau sarana prasarana yang dapat membantu atau memudahkan segala kegiatan masyarakat memang masih kurang memadai. Bahkan jika ditinjau dari sisi pelayanan, fasilitas-fasilitasnya juga masih minim sehingga kualitas pelayanan yang diberikan jauh dari yang diharapkan oleh masyarakat”.(Mustanir et al., 2019) Seorang pemimpin dapat melakukan berbagai cara dalamkegiatan mempengaruhi orang lain atau bawahan agar mau melakukan apa yang diperintahnya. Hal ini penting karena bagaimanapun seorang pemimpin mempunyai peran sebagai figur yang dapat dijadikan contoh oleh para bawahannya.(Paulo, 2019) Menurut Prajudi (2009:20),“peranan adalah apa yang harus dijalankan atau dimainkan dalam berhubungan dengan pejabat-pejabat, orang-orang, atau bagian-bagian lain”.(Sapri, S., Mustanir, A., Ibrahim, M., Adnan, A. A., Wirfandi, 2019) Pemimpin dapat mempengaruhi moral, kepuasan kerja, keamanan, kualitas kehidupan kerja dan terutama tingkat prestasi suatu organisasi. Kemampuan dan keterampilan dalam pengarahan adalah faktor penting efektivitas suatu organisasi. Bila organisasi dapat mengidentifikasikan kualitas-kualitas yang berhubungan dengan kepemimpinan, kemampuan untuk menyeleksi pemimpin-pemimpin yang efektif akan meningkat, dan apabila organisasi dapat mengidentifikasikan perilaku dan teknik tersebut akan dapat dipelajari.(Mustanir & Darmiah, 2016) Penyediaan pelayanan publik yang dilakukan oleh negara, saat ini masih diangap kurang dari cukup. Banyak fakta yang menunjukkan bahwa di beberapa daerah yang ada di Indonesia, yang mewartakan tentang buruknya pelayanan publik. Padahal ini sudah merupakan sesuatu yang diatur dalam konstitusi. Konstitusi sebagai bentuk dari adanya kontrak sosial dan politik di dalamnya mengatur tentang pelayanan publik sebagai salah satu tujuan utama dari dibentukknya negara, yaitu mewujudkan kesejahteraan rakyat yang adil dan makmur (Luthfi, 2007:56).(Fadhilah, 2001) Apabila aparatur pemerintah dalam memberikan pelayanan publik sesuai dengan prinsip good governance maka pemberian pelayanan publik tersebut sudah maksimal dalam kegiatannya. Dalam menjelaskan pemimpin dan kepemimpinan, ada beberapa hal yang perlu di perhatikan, di antaranya: pertama, kekuasaan dan kewenangan, yaitu kemampuan untuk bertindak bagi seorang pemimpin untuk menggerakkan bawahannya agar mengikuti kehendaknya dalam mencapai tujuan yang telah di tentukan sebelumnya.Kedua, kewibawaan, yaitu berbagai keunggulan yang dimiliki seorang pemimpin, sehingga membedakan dengan yang di pimpinnya, dan dengan keunggulan tersebut, orang lain patuh dan bersedia melakukan kegiatan-kegiatan yang di kehendakinya. Bahkan jika ditinjau dari sisi pelayanan, fasilitas-fasilitasnya juga masih minim sehingga kualitas pelayanan yang diberikan jauh dari yang diharapkan oleh masyarakat”. |

Bila organisasi dapat mengidentifikasikan kualitas-kualitas yang berhubungan dengan kepemimpinan, kemampuan untuk menyeleksi pemimpin-pemimpin yang efektif akan meningkat, dan apabila organisasi dapat mengidentifikasikan perilaku dan teknik tersebut akan dapat dipelajari.(Mustanir & Darmiah, 2016) Penyediaan pelayanan publik yang dilakukan oleh negara, saat ini masih diangap kurang dari cukup. Banyak fakta yang menunjukkan bahwa di beberapa daerah yang ada di Indonesia, yang mewartakan tentang buruknya pelayanan publik. Padahal ini sudah merupakan sesuatu yang diatur dalam konstitusi. Konstitusi sebagai bentuk dari adanya kontrak sosial dan politik di dalamnya mengatur tentang pelayanan publik sebagai salah satu tujuan utama dari dibentukknya negara, yaitu mewujudkan kesejahteraan rakyat yang adil dan makmur (Luthfi, 2007:56).(Fadhilah, 2001) Apabila aparatur pemerintah dalam memberikan pelayanan publik sesuai dengan prinsip good governance maka pemberian pelayanan publik tersebut sudah maksimal dalam kegiatannya. Dalam menjelaskan pemimpin dan kepemimpinan, ada beberapa hal yang perlu di perhatikan, di antaranya: pertama, kekuasaan dan kewenangan, yaitu kemampuan untuk bertindak bagi seorang pemimpin untuk menggerakkan bawahannya agar mengikuti kehendaknya dalam mencapai tujuan yang telah di tentukan sebelumnya.Kedua, kewibawaan, yaitu berbagai keunggulan yang dimiliki seorang pemimpin, sehingga membedakan dengan yang di pimpinnya, dan dengan keunggulan tersebut, orang lain patuh dan bersedia melakukan kegiatan-kegiatan yang di kehendakinya. Bahkan jika ditinjau dari sisi pelayanan, fasilitas-fasilitasnya juga masih minim sehingga kualitas pelayanan yang diberikan jauh dari yang diharapkan oleh masyarakat”. |

| Abstract: | With the trend of budget reduction and autonomous operation of arts and cultural organizations, competition in this field to attract audiences is an inevitable trend. This sets out the requirements of marketing activities to bring arts to the audiences and bring the audience to arts, which is, to link arts with the audience; not only achieved the goal of establishing and meeting the audience needs, but also fulfilled the arts and cultural organizations’ task of creating arts. There have been many research perspectives on culture and arts marketing in the context of cultural integration and economic development associated with the characteristics of each country and region. In this study, the author approaches, inherits, and develops Rentschler's culture and arts marketing model to build a scale and conduct practical research in Hanoi, Vietnam. The survey subjects were identified as art practitioners (artists) with more than 3 years of working experience in 7 theaters in Hanoi. The research was carried out by qualitative method through secondary data collection, combined with the quantitative method through a survey of opinions of 200 artists. |

| Abstract: | This paper estimates the impact of technology sophistication pre-COVID-19 on the performance of firms during the early stages of the pandemic. We exploit a unique data covering firms from Brazil, Senegal, and Vietnam using a treatment effect mediation framework to decompose the results into a direct and an indirect effect. Increasing pre-pandemic technology sophistication by one standard deviation is associated with 3.8pp higher sales. Both effects are positive, but the direct effect is about 5 times larger than the indirect effect. The total effect on sales is markedly nonlinear with significantly smaller estimates of the reduction in sales for firms with more sophisticated pre-pandemic technology. Our results are robust to different measures of digital responses and matching estimators. |

| Abstract: | Introductions: Pancasila is an absolute and important thing in the life of the nation and state in Indonesia. Therefore every Indonesian citizen is obliged to understand and implement the values contained in it. With this research, it is possible to determine the level of understanding of citizens towards Pancasila based on their social status in society. Method: The method in this research uses qualitative techniques by filling out questionnaires and interviews with respondents. Respondents involved in this research were dominated by students, health workers, housewives, and farmworkers. The age of the respondents in this research ranged from 17-52 years according to their profession. The research began with filling out questionnaires by respondents and several inter-views, the data obtained were processed to produce conclusions. After that, it can be used as a reference to instill an understanding of Pancasila in the community. Results: The results of this research based on questionnaires and interviews with respondents obtained satisfactory answers. In other words, this research shows the level of education is a major factor and social status is not something that can hinder the understanding and implementation of Pancasila. All the respondents were able to mention the content and form of implementation of Pancasila. Conclusion: From the results obtained, it can be concluded that all respondents involved have been able to understand the form and implementation of Pancasila. It can be interpreted, that this must be held firmly so that understanding of Pancasila does not fade in the future. Limitation: The research is limited to Indonesian citizens and the lack of respondents involved is a limitation in writing this research. So the conclusions obtained only come from filling out questionnaires and interviews with the respondents involved. |

| Abstract: | We pursue a cross-country comparison of relative financial readiness of older households in Japan and the Republic of Korea relative to the US. Our comparative analysis, using macro-level and harmonized longitudinal household financial data, covers the principal financial channels of old age support: public and private pension plans, family support, and self-management of private financial portfolios. We find that while all three countries have similar public pension systems, older Americans benefit from more developed and better-funded public and private pension systems, as well as individual management of risky financial portfolios. We find that educational and health attainments of household heads and household wealth lead to a greater tendency to hold and manage risky assets. Our decomposition analysis also shows that the gap in stock ownership in Asian countries relative to the US is attributable to lower development levels of financial and pension markets. However, these gaps are shrinking more recently. |

| Abstract: | In a highly integrated global economy, linkages of domestic sectors to global trade measure an economy’s ability to gain from participating in global value chains. On the other hand, the strength of domestic linkages can provide insights on an economy's cross-industry trade and extent of the localization of economic activity. This paper proposes a measure of domestic linkages based on a value added approach. Using the Asian Development Bank’s multiregional input–output table from 2000 and 2007 to 2020, this paper estimates a backward agglomeration index, which measures the extent to which different sectors in the economy source value added from domestic sectors for domestic consumption. An analogous forward agglomeration index, which measures the extent to which domestic sectors absorb value added, is also defined. The combinations of backward and forward agglomeration indexes are consequently used to analyze an economy or a sector’s agglomeration status. The agglomeration indexes show a positive correlation with existing reshoring indexes, and a negative correlation with global value chain participation. The indexes are further extended to account for distribution of activities within domestic sectors. |

| Abstract: | Predicting the sustainability of a business is crucial to prevent financial losses among shareholders and investors. This study attempts to evaluate the Altman model for predicting corporate failure in distressed and non-distressed Malaysian companies based on the data of financially troubled companies which are classified as Practice Note 17 (PN17) and matching similar non-PN17 companies during the period 2013 to 2017. This study utilizes panel ordinal and panel random effects regressions. Findings show that the liquidity, profitability, leverage, solvency, and efficiency ratios are negatively significantly associated with corporate failure and bankruptcy. The leverage ratio is determined to be the strongest indicator of bankruptcy, followed by profitability, liquidity, solvency, and efficiency ratios. The findings will help companies' management bodies implement suitable strategies to prevent further financial leakage, thereby ensuring continuous and sustainable return on investment and profits for investors and shareholders. |

Contribution of Fair Trade in Sustainable Development Definition "Fair trade is a model for alleviating global poverty. Many companies and markets are investing, impacting developing communities. From building sustainable businesses to providing education, the movement is life-changing for those living in poor communities around the world".-Brandi Gomez Fair Trade (FT) is a societal movement that aims to support poor and vulnerable producers in developing nations to attain improved trading conditions with direct link to consumers and excluding mediators in the trading chain (Young and Utting 2005). Therefore FT allows poor producers to be part of a trading organization that make sure a fair and steady price for their products. It also provides them and their systems different level of backing facilities and stimulates sustainable environment. |

| Abstract: | In assessing the current and future role of universities in the nation-states in which they are chartered and funded, it is useful to ask, When are universities societal leaders as societal and constructive change agents, and when are they followers, reinforcing the existing political order? As discussed in the book, Neo-Nationalism and Universities: Populists, Autocrats and the Future of Higher Education, the national political history and contemporary context is the dominant factor for shaping the leadership or follower role of universities – what I call a political determinist interpretation. We often think of contemporary universities, and their students and faculty, as catalysts for societal progress -- the Free Speech and Civil Rights movements, Vietnam War protests, the anti-Apartheid movement, Tiananmen Square, and more recently the pro-democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong. Universities can be, and have been, the locus for not only educating enlightened future leaders, but also for opposing oppression and dictatorships. But universities have also proved over their history to be tools for serving the privileged, and reinforcing the social class divisions of a society; they also have been factories for errant theories that reinforce the worst of nationalist tendencies. Universities are both unique environments for educating and mentoring free thinkers, entrepreneurs, and citizens with, for example, a devotion to social change, or for creating conformists -- or all of the above. How might we assess whether universities are followers or leaders in their societies? This essay considers this question, offering a framework for evaluating the follower or leader role, and with particular attention to the emergence or, in some cases, re-emergence of neo-nationalist leaders and autocratic governments. |

| Abstract: | This study aims to develop an environmental dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (E-DSGE) model with heterogeneous production sectors and evaluate possible central bank and fiscal policies towards green and sustainable production. We estimate the model for the Indonesian economy and assess the effects of macroeconomic uncertainty in terms of productivity, monetary, macroprudential, fiscal policy, and financial shocks in a setup that includes policies supporting green firms. We find that aggregate output, consumption, and investment react negatively to a positive monetary policy and government spending shock. Further, we show that emission tax may dampen the contraction of green output due to contractionary monetary and fiscal policy. The effect of green financing subsidy, however, looks trivial |

| Abstract: | Traditional approaches to human mobility analysis in Geography often rely on census or survey data that is resource-intensive to collect and often has a limited spatio-temporal scope. The advent of new technologies (e.g. geosocial media platforms) provides opportunities to overcome these limitations and, if properly leveraged, can yield more granular insights about human mobility. In this paper, we use an anonymized Twitter dataset collected in Singapore from 2012 to 2016 to investigate this potential to help understand the footprints of urban neighbourhoods from both a spatial and a relational perspective. We construct home-to-destination networks of individual users based on their inferred home locations. In aggregated form, these networks allow us to analyze three specific mobility indicators at the neighbourhood level, namely the distance, diversity, and direction of urban interactions. By mapping these three indicators of the spatial footprint of each neighbourhood, we can capture the nuances in the position of individual neighbourhoods within the larger urban network. An exploratory spatial regression reveals that socio-economic characteristics (e.g. share of rental housing) and the built environment (i.e. land use) only partially explain these three indicators and a residual analysis points to the need to explicitly include each neighbourhood's position within the transportation network in future work. |

| Abstract: | Working longer helps people secure a comfortable retirement, particularly given the rise in Social Security’s full retirement age. Before the COVID-19 crisis, many older workers had internalized this message, and both retirement and Social Security claiming ages were steadily rising. The question is the extent to which the pandemic interrupted this trend. To provide a benchmark for answering this question, this brief (based on a recent study) uses the Current Population Survey (CPS) to compare patterns of leaving work and of retiring before and after the pandemic for individuals ages 55 and over.This comparison, which uses the panel nature of the monthly CPS to follow people over time, allows for identifying the factors that made older workers susceptible to job separations during the pandemic; determining whether those who left employment also retired; and reconciling these patterns with recent trends in Social Security claiming. The discussion proceeds as follows. The first section details the data and methods of the analysis. The second section shows that the pandemic did indeed result in many job exits among older workers – particularly those with less than a college degree, women, Asian-Americans, and those in occupations that did not lend themselves to remote work. The final section concludes that while the pandemic pushed many older adults out of work, it had little impact on retirement and Social Security claiming, which suggests that many might want to return to work if the pandemic continues to recede. |

| Abstract: | Polyculture of fish is a common pond-based aquaculture system practiced by small-scale producers in developing countries to improve input use efficiency, and increase productivity and profits. We conduct a cross-country comparison to examine whether the economic and productivity benefits are seen in data of 1,651 ponds from 1,307 fish farming households in three countries: Bangladesh, Egypt, and Myanmar. Among these ponds, polyculture is the prevailing system, as it is practiced in 66% of them. The surveys of these households were completed in 2019. We use propensity score matching to match the ponds based on household and pond characteristics, so that ponds are compared with other similar ponds. Results indicate that the aquaculture revenue and profit of polyculture ponds are higher than those of monoculture ponds by US$4,993 and US$6,985, respectively, per hectare per cycle. The increase is also observed in the systems of tilapia polyculture and rohu polyculture, which are the two most common systems among the sampled farmers. The increase for rohu polyculture at US$7,992 in revenue and US$9,366 in profit per hectare per cycle is higher than the increase for tilapia polyculture at US$4,649 and US$6,649, respectively. However, tilapia polyculture farmers save more harvested fish for household consumption, by 72 kg per cycle, than farmers of other systems. The higher profits for general polyculture, tilapia polyculture, and rohu polyculture are statistically significant after controlling for country-level factors and have high critical value of gamma in the Rosenbaum sensitivity analysis, indicating that these results are robust. This analysis from fish farming households complements the results from pond experiments and can help to inform decision-making in aquaculture policy and training. |

| Abstract: | We study how social media affects election outcomes in the United States. We use variation in the number of Twitter users across counties induced by early adopters at the 2007 South by Southwest (SXSW) festival, a key event in Twitter’s rise to popularity. We show that this variation is unrelated to observable county characteristics and electoral outcomes before the launch of Twitter. Our results indicate that Twitter lowered the Republican vote share in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections, but had limited effects on Congressional elections and previous presidential elections. Evidence from survey data, primary elections, and a text analysis of millions of tweets suggests that Twitter’s relatively liberal content may have persuaded voters with moderate views to vote against Donald Trump. |

| Abstract: | The increasing level of greenhouse gas carbon emission currently exacerbates the devastating effect of global warming on the Earth's ecosystem. Energy usage is one of the most important determinants that is increasing the amount of carbon gases being released. Simultaneously, the level of energy usage is derived by the price and therefore, this study examines the contribution of energy price to carbon gas emissions in thirteen African nations for the period spanning 1990 to 2017. It does this by utilizing the Cross-sectional Dependence (CD), Augmented Mean Group (AMG) and Pooled Mean Group (PMG) panel modelling methods. The findings of the AMG model suggest that a 1% increase in energy price leads to a 0.02% decerease in carbon emission. The results further reveal that a 1% increase in energy intensity and technological innovation lead to 0.04% and 3.65% increase in carbon emission, respectively, in the selected African countries. Findings will help policymakers to implement effective energy price policies to reduce carbon emissions and achieve sustainable development goals especially in the emerging economies of Africa. |

| Abstract: | This research investigates the health impacts and access to health services by children who are engaged in waste collection in Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh. The relevant qualitative data were collected through expert interviews and personal observations, while quantitative data were gathered through a face-to-face questionnaire survey given to 50 street children who collected waste at the landfill site located in Dhaka city's Matuail area. The results indicate that 94% of these children have suffered from many health problems, such as fever and fatigue due to tiredness, dizziness, and vomiting. Consequently, a significant portion of their daily income is spent on medical treatment. This study suggests that the waste collection system must integrate modern technological, health and environmental resources so that: firstly, they do not harm waste collectors; and secondly, rehabilitate the street children and give them better access to acceptable basic amenities. This is a priority the city authorities. |

| Abstract: | The COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as one of the deadliest infectious diseases on the planet. Millions of people and businesses have been placed in lockdown where the main aim is to stop the spread of the virus. As an extreme phenomenon, the lockdown has triggered a global economic shock at an alarming pace, conveying sharp recessions for many countries. In the meantime, the lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have drastically changed energy consumption patterns and reduced CO2 emissions throughout the world. Recent data released by the International Monetary Fund and International Energy Agency for 2020 further forecast that emissions will rebound in 2021. Still, the full impact of COVID-19 in terms of how long the crisis will be and how the consumption pattern of energy and the associated levels of CO2 emissions will be affected are unclear. This review aims to steer policymakers and governments of nations toward a better direction by providing a broad and convincing overview on the observed and likely impacts of the pandemic of COVID-19 on the world economy, world energy demand, and world energy-related CO2 emissions that may well emerge in the next few years. Indeed, given that immediate policy responses are required with equal urgency to address three things—pandemic, economic downturn, and climate crisis. This study outlines policy suggestions that can be used during these uncertain times as a guide |

| Abstract: | As clearly defined by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), children's rights entails a conceptual method and guide towards recognising the children as the rightful holders of universally accepted rights just like other human beings (UNCRC, 1989). It is generally established that children are entitled to fundamental universally-accepted human rights that include the right to a decent life, equality, and human dignity. Furthermore, children are also entitled to certain "child-specific rights" which comprise of the right to proper development, livelihood and attention, and right to education. The children's rights form a division of human rights that gives special attention to exceptional care and protection rights, mainly to children or minors. In essence, human rights are those moral values or norms that define specific and basic standards of human and social behaviours, which are regular protection within domestic and universal laws (Campbell 1992). A just society refers to any community that can share and distribute those vital things we have value and reward for (Sandel, 2009). Such may include income and wealth, influence and opportunities, rights and responsibilities, offices, and honours; that correctly, gives each individual his or her right. In this regard, what individuals get in the distribution process of available goods and services can be determined based on welfare maximisation principles, respect for individual freedoms, and upholding human virtues. It is an essential aspect that raised global commitment since its acceptance within the UN Sustainable Development Agenda 2030 framework (Lee et al., 2016). Subsequently, the simple expression of ensuring equal access to justice for all becomes relevant, thereby making all concerned parties remain actively involved in fulfilling it. |

| Abstract: | The objective of this study is to analyse the rationales, challenges and prospects of Dhaka City being split up, for the purposes of creating a sustainable city grounded in relevant theories and widely used and accepted standards. An assessment of Dhaka being divided in accordance with the concept of City Development Strategies reveals considerable deficiencies in most aspects of public goods and services provisions. Whilst splitting Dhaka into separate sections supports the "World City Hypothesis" it is not without criticisms, for instance those raised by urban planners, experts and politicians. The lack of resources and oversight to address those deficiencies and problems and the administrative, allocative, economic and social inefficiencies makes it very difficult for Dhaka's authorities to achieve sustainable urbanisation. Therefore, appropriate strategies must be implemented by government to resolve these problems, inefficiencies and mismanagement in order for the city to be liveable sustainable. |

| Abstract: | • In a world of unequal wealth and incomes, market provision of housing usually fails to provide quality housing options to young and low-income households. Like other necessary goods characterised by monopoly, like healthcare and pharmaceuticals, access to them via pricing creates inherent social challenges. • Historically, the social challenge of unequal access to housing was solved with public intervention to offer non-market housing at lower regulated price to first time buyers and renters. • The proposed HouseMate program is a 21st century housing supplier, copying the best features of Singapore’s successful housing system. • It will sell new homes to eligible Australian citizens at construction cost price, offering them a discounted mortgage, with purchasers able to pay deposit and repayments using their compulsory super contributions. • This new housing alternative will operate in parallel with the private purchase and rental markets. HouseMate owners will have all the rights and obligations of private homeowners, but with a mandatory occupancy period. • The design of HouseMate addresses all the key housing policy challenges in Australia, including o high deposit hurdles for first homebuyers, o uncertainty and high rents for low-income households, o younger households tying up income in super when homeownership is a higher priority for retirement, o price effects and inefficiencies of demand-only subsidy programs to homebuyers (like FHB grants) and renters (NRAS payments), and o limited innovation of design and construction in private housing markets. • If secure, low-cost housing via homeownership is a policy priority, there is no reason not to try the HouseMate program. |
