    THE IMMEDIATE IMPACT OF EURO ON INTRA-REGIONAL TRADE: AN EVENT STUDY APPROACH

    Get PDF
    This article applies the event study approach to assess the immediate impact of Euro on intra-regional trade among the European Union (EU) members. Here, the post-Euro intra-regional trade has been compared with the pre-Euro intra-regional trade, while the implementation of Euro has been considered as the event. The results show that the trade enhancement at the immediate post-event period is 1.2 times of the immediate pre-event period for France, Germany, Italy and Spain, while immediate trade enhancement for all Euro-members is 1.14 times. The estimation has been statistically justified by using the gravity model. This study thus provides the first empirical evidence on the assessment of currency union impact on intra-regional trade by using the alternative method, the event study approach.Currency Union, Intra-Regional Trade, Event Study, Trade Deepening

    Bilateral trades between Bangladesh and China have stretched significantly in the recent years. Trade relationship in between these two countries is increasing with time again connection of Silk Road will give more boost to the economy of both the countries. In this paper our objective is to examine and compare the international trade between the two countries, especially, the changes in the bilateral trade and identifying major trends of trade. To elaborate the trade pattern, we use trade intensity, intra-industry trade (IIT) and revealed comparative advantages (RCA). Our findings have been use to locate the strong sectors of future cooperation between these two countries to make the economy stronger and also policy implications for future trade and economical progress. Keywords: Bangladesh and China; Trade intensity; Intra-industry trade (IIT); Revealed comparative advantages (RCA

    This paper empirically assesses the integration of ASEAN with the European Union (EU) from an ASEAN-European Union trade model, and investigates their untapped trade potential. For the observation period of 1996 to 2008, the ASEAN-EU trade gap between the potential trade and the actual trade appears quite substantial. This study opens up the scope for future study on the ASEAN-EU regional integration

    This paper investigates the impact of the ongoing process of ASEAN trade liberalization on trade patterns of the ASEAN members. A modified gravity model incorporating exchange rate volatility and regional integration is estimated for each of the seven major ASEAN economies for the period of 1994 to 2009. The result observes substantial amount of heterogeneity among the members’ trade pattern

    A study of antimicrobial sensitivity of Escherichia coli isolated from clinical sources of Medinova Diagnostic Center and Popular Diagnostic Center, Dhaka, Bangladesh was carried out to facilitate the preference of drug in the management of Escherichia coli induced symptoms. Very low sensitivity of E. coli towards ampicillin (4%), aztreonam (4%), cloxacillin (5%), nalidixic acid (5%), ciprofloxacin (7.5%), ceftriaxone (12.5%), doxycycline (12.5%), ceftazidime (16.25%), co-trimoxazole (20%), chloramphenicol (22.51%), tetracycline (25%), and netilmicin (35%) was observed. Higher sensitivity pattern was observed for gentamicin (56%) and only imipenem (95%) has shown sensitivity pattern possibly susceptible enough to consider for the management of E. coli induced cases in the area under study. The low sensitivity to different antimicrobial could be attributed to their prevailing usage and abuse in the area under study

    A data warehouse-oriented methodology for qualitative semi-structured web information and social networking sites' user status search

    Get PDF
    Finding most desired and useful information from the diverse information and content embedded on webpages has become more challenging due to the rapid growth of websites and webpages, dynamic changes and updates of information and content on webpages, the lack of well-formed structure of webpage content and so on. Information search seems a trivial task when plain text, hyperlink texts, embedded images, videos that all make up webpage content remain in semistructured form. Semi-structured webpage content do not have predefined structure and remains in hierarchically nested HTML tags of a webpage body. Unlike structured webpage content, heterogeneous semi-structured webpage content can’t be neatly formatted, organized and modeled directly into relational database. One of the most important information types on the web is web user’s emotion expressed in user-posted status on Social Networking Sites like Facebook, Twitter. Publicly posted user status is informative enough to know user’s daily thoughts, feelings, emotions through textual self-description. The data warehouse-oriented methodology of semi-structured webpage content extraction and modeling into database introduces a simplified and less labor intensive XML-based semi-structured webpage content extraction technique that overcomes the limitations of existing pre-defined specification file and Wrapper-based techniques to adapt rapid changes of webpage content and to extract same piece of information on different webpages having differentiated nested HTML structure. This methodology also introduces Multidimensional Fact data modeling technique for semi-structured webpage content storage into relational database. Our implemented methodology ensures qualitative search result in terms of hyperlinks to most desired webpages appearing first with a relatively very low fractional amount of minute. [...
