CAUSALITY BETWEEN DOMESTIC INVESTMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN ARAB COUNTRIES
The aim of this investigation is to examine the nexus between domestic investment and economic growth in Arab countries. To attempt our goal, we used annual data for the period 1990 – 2020 and Vector Error Correction Model. Empirical analysis indicates that there is no relationship between domestic investment and economic growth in the long run. However, we find a bidirectional causality between domestic investment and economic growth in the short run. These results provide evidence that domestic investment is necessary in Arab countries’ economy and is presented as an engine of growth since they cause economic growth in the short term. But they are not carried out and treated with a solid and fair manner, which offer new insights into Arabe countries’ investment policy for promoting economic growth
Climate Change and Livelihood Sustainability in Kishtwar, Jammu and Kashmir
The Himalayas host rich cultural and biological diversities and generate different ecosystem services. The Himalayas act as a water tower and source of food, but suffer from poverty, risks, and vulnerabilities. Climate change is the biggest threat that overshadows living organisms and negatively impacts the rural livelihood of people living there. Warming has accelerated, and surpassed the global average over the past century. Receding glaciers lead to water scarcity not only for drinking but also for agricultural activities. The erratic rainfall results in flash floods and landslides, causing massive damage to infrastructure, life, and property. This study identifies and analyses the impact of climate change on livelihood sustainability and associated challenges. A household survey using purposive sampling was conducted in the Gandhari valley of Kishtwar district, Jammu and Kashmir in 2022. It was concluded that climate change has brought multiple changes in the valley and affected livelihoods. Most of the males migrate to cities in winter due to unemployment, whereas the rural poor were the worst hit because they were the most economically backward and vulnerable to these changes. The valley must adapt to climate change, traditional practices, and knowledge could help locals become resilient.El Himalaya alberga gran diversidad cultural y biológica, además de proporcionar diversos servicios ecosistémicos. Esta región está considerada una fuente vital de agua y alimentos, pero también se enfrenta a grandes retos como pobreza, vulnerabilidad y riesgos. El cambio climático representa la mayor amenaza afectando gravemente a los organismos vivos y que pone en riesgo la sobrevivencia de las poblaciones rurales de la zona. Durante el último siglo, el calentamiento global se ha intensificado, superando la media mundial. El retroceso de los glaciares ha provocado escasez de agua, tanto potable como para la agricultura, mientras que las lluvias irregulares han aumentado las incidencias de inundaciones y deslizamientos, causando daños en la infraestructura, la vida y la propiedad. Este estudio identifica y analiza el impacto del cambio climático en la sostenibilidad de los medios de subsistencia de la región y los retos que esto implica. En 2022, se realizó una encuesta en hogares del valle Gandhari del distrito de Kishtwar, Jammu y Cachemira utilizando el muestreo intencional. Los resultados mostraron que el cambio climático ha causado grandes cambios en el valle, afectando a los medios de subsistencia. Ante la falta de empleo, muchos hombres migran a las ciudades durante el invierno, mientras que las poblaciones rurales pobres sufren en mayor medida, ya que cuentan con menos recursos y por tanto son más vulnerables a los cambios. El valle ha de adaptarse al cambio climático, para lo cual las prácticas y el conocimiento tradicional podrían ayudar a los habitantes a ser resilientes

The Impact of Natural resources, CO2 Emission, Energy use, Domestic Investment, Innovation, Trade and Digitalization on Economic growth: Evidence from 52 African Countries
The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of natural resources, CO2 emission, energy use, domestic investment, innovation, trade, and digitalization on economic growth in the case of 52 African Countries. To attempt our goal, we used annual data of 52 African countries for the period 1996 to 2021 which was estimated by using random effect model, fixed effect model and Hausman test. Empirical results indicate that domestic investment, exports, natural resources and final consumption expenditure have a positive impact on economic growth. Also, we found that labor force, imports and energy use have a negative effect on economic growth. However, we found that CO2 emission, innovation and internet use don’t have any effect on economic growth. The study recommends vital policies that should focus on promoting domestic investment, exports, natural resources, and final consumption to stimulate economic growth in African countries. Similarly, it recommends creating new strategies to manage the role of the active population, imports, energy consumption, CO2 emissions, innovation, and digitalization to make their effects influential in improving the economic growth
The effect of internal marketing on job satisfaction among employees of government linked companies (glcs) in Malaysia
Job satisfaction (JS) of employees has been an important factor in organisations as part of achieving organisational performance and goals. This factor has been discussed and deliberated over a century. This study was conducted to gain a better understanding of the factors affecting JS with specific reference to the employees of Government Linked Companies (GLCs). JS of employees is very important for organisations, especially in GLCs. GLCs are important as part of the catalyst for the economy. GLCs were incorporated as part of the nation’s strategy to propel and transcend the nation into achieving developed nation status by 2020. Internal marketing (IM) factors are factors that exist among employees in organisations. IM factors are relevant in organisations such as GLCs and act as indicators for JS of the employees in the GLCs. The IM factors, namely employee empowerment (EE), employee motivation (EM), training and development (TD), benefits and compensation (BC) and internal communication are studied as factors against JS in GLCs in the dissertation. Organisational culture (OC) was selected as the moderator against the IM factors towards the JS of the GLCs. 706 employees from 10 GLCs were chosen from the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) for this study. 361 responses were received and 341 were deemed valid for analysis. The researcher collected the data through self-administered survey questionnaires. The hypotheses were tested using SPSS version 21.0 and PLS-SEM version 3.0. The findings showed that EE, EM and BC showed positive relationships with JS. OC did not moderate the relationship between the IM factors and JS. The study has shown the relevance of IM factors towards JS. It has also acted as the foundation for the study of JS factors among the employees of GLCs. It is hoped that the findings in the study will be used to improve the JS of employees in GLCs
