Abstract The condition of fishermen’s households that are less food secure can be triggered by poverty. As a developing country, Indonesia still has a fairly high poverty rate of 34.96 million people, of which 63.47% are people living in coastal areas. According to the Food Consumption Survey of Lampung in 2017, 2018, and 2019 conducted by the Food Security Agency of Lampung Province, it is known that the amount and level of energy consumption of fishery households in Bandar Lampung City has decreased from 1,815.1 kcal/cap/day or by 93, 1% in 2017 to 1,666.4 kcal/cap/year or 84.0% in 2018, and decreased again to 1,568.0 kcal/cap/day or 75.1% in 2019. This study aims to analyze the level of food security of fishermen’s households in and the level of energy and protein adequacy of fishermen’s households in Teluk Betung Selatan District. This research was conducted in Teluk Betung Selatan District, Bandar Lampung. The research was conducted on March to July 2021. The sample of fishermen in this study was 50 fishermen from 1,207 fishermen in Teluk Betung Selatan District. Sampling was done by simple random method.

High Poverty Rate

Aceh is one of the provinces with a high poverty rate and is also a region with a high poverty rate in Sumatra, including Langsa City. Therefore, one of the efforts to alleviate poverty in Langsa City is by utilizing zakat funds managed by the Baitul Mal Institute, which will later be distributed to the poor in Langsa City. This study aims to identify the role of the Baitul Mal Institution in alleviating poverty and improving the welfare of the people of Langsa City. From the research results, it is concluded that the distribution of zakat funds to the poor is still ineffective and still not on target so that people still do not feel prosperity.

The current utilization of digital services especially in finance sector among the productive age communities is increasing. Mobile money utilization and the implementation of a digitalization system in the financial sector are expected to increase financial inclusion. By increasing financial inclusion, the poverty rate is also expected to be reduced. Buleleng Regency is one of regency in Bali Province, Indonesia which has a high poverty rate. It is necessary to increase financial inclusion through mobile money usage. However, it is also necessary to increase consumer protection to support this digitalization. This research aims to determine the effect of mobile money usage on financial inclusion with digital consumer protection as a mediator in productive age communities in Buleleng Regency, Bali, Indonesia. The population of this research consists of 439,400 people from productive age group in Buleleng Regency, Bali, Indonesia. This research used a non-probability sampling technique with the total of 477 samples. This research applies the Sobel test, Baron and Kenny’s mediation analysis, and the PROCESS method by Hayes. The results of this study show that digital consumer protection partially mediates the effect of the mobile money usage on financial inclusion in Buleleng Regency, Bali, Indonesia. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested to regulators and related agencies in Indonesia to show more attention about the safety factors of mobile money users by strengthening consumer protection in terms of both regulation and the system reliability. Furthermore, it is also necessary to develop education programs on how to manage finance properly by using mobile money in order to improve people’s welfare.

Neglected parasitic diseases are a group of infections currently considered as a worldwide concern. This fact can be attributed to the migration of these diseases to developed and developing countries, associated with therapeutic insufficiency resulted from the low investment in the research and development of new drugs. In order to overcome this situation, bioprospecting supports medicinal chemistry in the identification of new scaffolds with therapeutically appropriate physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. Among them, we highlight the nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds, as they are secondary metabolites of many natural products with potential biological activity. The objective of this work was to review studies within a 10-year timeframe (2009- 2019), focusing on the pharmacological application of nitrogen bioprospectives (pyrrole, pyridine, indole, quinoline, acridine, and their respective derivatives) against neglected parasitic infections (malaria, leishmania, trypanosomiases, and schistosomiasis), and their application as a template for semi-synthesis or total synthesis of potential antiparasitic agents. In our studies, it was observed that among the selected articles, there was a higher focus on the attempt to identify and obtain novel antimalarial compounds, in a way that an extensive amount of studies involving all heterocyclic nitrogen nuclei were found. On the other hand, the parasites with the lowest number of publications up until the present date have been trypanosomiasis, especially those caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, and schistosomiasis, where some heterocyclics have not even been cited in recent years. Thus, we conclude that despite the great biodiversity on the planet, little attention has been given to certain neglected tropical diseases, especially those that reach countries with a high poverty rate.

Korea’s elderly poverty rate remains very high. The fact that a society long governed by the Confucian idea of respect for the elderly has a high elderly poverty rate is ironic. This paper reveals the causes of the exceptionally high poverty rate of the elderly in Korea. Significant reductions in the birth rate and the rapid aging of the population have fueled reductions in private transfers from adult children to elderly parents. Efforts to strengthen the public transfer system have not kept pace with reductions in private transfers in relieving elderly poverty. Korea’s experience provides policy implications to developing countries.

A crucial problem faced by Indonesia is its high poverty rate. One of the redistribution instruments that can be used to reduce poverty is zakat. The zakat potential of Pati Regency, Indonesia in 2016 was approximately Rp 20 billion, but the funds collected only amounted to around 9 percent of this figure (Rp 1.8 billion). This statistic shows that the management of zakat is not optimized, both in terms of its collection and distribution. This study aims to evaluate the performance of zakat practices, and the influenceof zakat on the welfare of mustahik (recipients of zakat) in Pati Regency, Indonesia. The research was conducted by means of a survey of 100 households of mustahik and interviews. The sampling method that used in this research was purposive sampling technique. Analysis of the result was undertakenusing by National Zakat Index (NZI) and Muti-Stage Weight Index Method. The result of this research show that the performance of zakat practices in Pati Regency is in the “less good” category with an index value of 0.392.

The oil economy of Nigeria is very important to the country, but the people of Nigeria still suffer from a corrupt government. Despite the revenues being brought in from oil exports, the Nigerian government still holds a large unemployment rate and a high poverty rate. This paper shows the amount of oil being produced per day, as well as, the process by which the oil is brought to the market. This paper also shows the labor to GDP ratio, the major exports, and the major imports of Nigeria. Finally, an understanding of the ethnic struggle within Nigeria is looked at, as well as, the illegal oil racketeering that is costing the Nigerian governments billions of dollars. Until the people of Nigeria can take control of its government and rid themselves of the crushing militias that controls the politics in Nigeria, the people are doomed to suffer.

Significance The Fund suspended support in June after President Jose Mario Vaz's government flouted a key loan condition. Earlier this month, the Guinean and Sierra Leonean presidents brokered a deal aimed at ending the parallel political crisis that has paralysed the government. Impacts Robust global cashew nut prices coupled with a strong harvest will likely boost GDP growth to around 5% this year. The West African CFA franc currency, which is pegged to the euro, will mitigate exchange rate volatility and inflation. The high poverty rate (around 70%) will generate popular grievance for the foreseeable future.

Abstract: Zakat is intended to empowering the mustahik and improving their living standard. For this reason, the Islamic economic system through zakat is believed as one of  solution to overcome social gap and inequalities. Qualitative descriptive research is used to reveal Zakat Law Number 23 of 2011 drafting as Law Number 38 of 1999 replacement; and al-Maqashid al-Shari'ah as analysis approach. The high poverty rate, the great potential of zakat, and the responsibility of the State promote the “productive zakat” in form of scholarships, venture capital, and other forms are inevitably, while distributing the fund to the eight asnaf as stated in Al Qur'an Surah At-Taubah verse 60.Abstrak: Sistem ekonomi Islam melalui zakat merupakan solusi untuk menanggulangi kesen­jangan sosial yang akan berakibat pada kecemburuan sosial, konflik sosial, bahkan sampai revolusi sosial. Pengelolaan zakat yang baik mendistribusikan dana zakat tidak bersifat konsumtif tetapi secara produktif baik dimensi ekonomi, pendidikan, bahkan sarana sosial lainnya sehingga mustahik mampu mengembangkan dana zakat yang diteri­­ma guna meningkatkan taraf kehidupannya. Penelitian deskriptif kualitatif diguna­kan untuk mengungkapkan kejadian atau fakta proses pembuatan undang-undang nomor 23 tahun 2011 sebagai perubahan dari undang-undang nomor 38 tahun 1999. Sedangkan untuk menganalisis digunakan pendekatan al-Maqashid al-Syari’ah. Angka kemiskinan yang tinggi dan potensi zakat yang besar serta tanggungjawab Negara dalam hal itu menjadikan pengelolaan zakat secara produktif seperti dalam bentuk beasiswa, permodalan, pemberian alat-alat produksi dan sebagainya adalah hal yang niscaya dengan tetap mendistribusikannya tidak keluar dari delapan asnaf yang tertuang dalam Al-quran surat At-Taubah ayat 60.
