The state of well-being in South East Asia at the turn of the new millennium and a decade after

Recent writings on the state of the world today are often laced with alarming notes on the impending doom of mankind. Such notes pertain, among others, to the increasing economic discrepancies between the rich and the poor, the rapid increase in population growth, the cumulative destruction of the natural habitat and the rapidly growing powers unleashed by modern science and technology. They all signify issues, problems and challenges that countries and nations inherit from the last millennium. While the Southeast Asian region is no exception to this rule of living, even in the early decade of the new millennium, the curious question is how exactly do Southeast Asian countries comparatively fare in this context? This paper attempts to give an initial and tentative picture of the state of well-being of the Southeast Asian nations by analysing four major indicators, namely, GDP, unemployment, health and literacy. Lack of comparable data notwithstanding, it was found that a decade into the new millennium the region’s patterns of disparities persisted with Singapore heading the wellbeing list followed by Brunei, Malaysia and the rest. In conclusion, the legacy of the last millennium endures

Aid-Financed Public Investments and the Dutch Disease: Evidence from Tanzania

In this paper we discuss the impact of scaling-up aid in Tanzania using an economy-wide dynamic CGE model. The major conclusions coming out from this work is that productivity effects matter. If additional aid and consequently increased public spending has a positive impact on productivity this would spur GDP growth and reduce the risk of an appreciating real exchange rate. In a way this resembles previous results in the aid-growth literature that aid has a positive impact on growth in a country with good economic policies assuming that good policies have a positive impact on productivity. Presenting various scenarios on the impact of additional aid a sustained GDP growth rate of around 7 percent would be possible to achieve in a modest scaling-up aid scenario without any significant changes in the real exchange rate.Aid:Dutch:Disease:Tanzania

Dari 43 pengobatan tradisional di Kota BandaAceh, 27 diantaranya tidak memperpanjang izin, dan 4 pengobatan tradisional tidaklagi diketahui status izinnya. Namun, dalam kenyataannya Permasalahan tersebutterjadi karena lemahnya pengawasan yang dilakukan Dinas Kesehatan Kota BandaAceh.Penulisan skripsi ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menjelaskanpelaksanaan pengawasan terhadap penyelenggaraan pengobatan tradisional yang adadi Kota Banda Aceh, hambatan dalam melakukan pengawasan, serta upaya yangditempuh oleh Pemerintah Kota Banda Aceh untuk mengatasi hambatanpenyelengaraan pengobatan tradisional tersebut.Untuk memperoleh data dalam penulisan skripsi ini dilakukan melaluiPenelitian Kepustakaan (Library research) dan Penelitian Lapangan (FieldResearch). Penelitian kepustakaan dilakukan dengan teknik studi dokumentasi.Sedangkan penelitian lapangan dilakukan dengan cara mewawancarai pararesponden dan informan yang telah dipilih dan diperkirakan dapat mewakilikeseluruhan dari populasi penelitian.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, Pengawasan yang dilakukan oleh DinasKesehatan Kota Banda Aceh belum berjalan sesuai dengan peraturan yang berlaku.Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor yang menjadi hambatan, antara lain; berasaldari faktor internal pengawas yaitu karena terbatasnya dana dan kurangnya sumberdaya manusia dalam menjalankan pengawasan, kurangnya pengetahuan pengawasmengenai ketentuan yang diatur di dalam peraturan perundang-undangan, dankurangnya kesadaran dari pengawas untuk melaksanakan tugasnya dengan baik.Faktor penghambat lainnya berasal dari faktor eksternal, yaitu terbatasnya waktudalam melakukan pengawasan, kurangnya pengetahuan dari pengobat tradisional danmasyarakat mengenai hak dan kewajibannya masing-masing. Upaya yang dilakukanuntuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut antara lain, mengusulkan penambahan danakepada DPRK Kota Banda Aceh, mengusulkan penambahan jumlah pegawai yangmemiliki kemampuan dalam bidang pengawasan pengobatan tradisional,mengadakan pelatihan pengawasan pada pegawai dalam lingkup Dinas KesehatanKota Banda Aceh, mengadakan sosialisasi untuk pengobat tradisional danmasyarakat umum, serta melaksanakan evaluasi kinerja bagi setiap tenaga kerjadalam ruang lingkup Dinas Kesehatan Kota Banda Aceh khususnya bagian yangmelakukan pengawasan pengobatan tradisional.Disarankan kepada Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Kota Banda Aceh dapat segeramemberikan tambahan dana, Pemerintah segera menambah jumlah tenaga kerja, danDinas Kesehatan Kota Banda Aceh mengubah sistem pengawasan yang dilakukan,serta memberikan sanksi yang tegas dan sesuai ketentuan, bagi yang melakukanpelanggaran.201
