Author(s):  
S. Nozdrev

At present, the competitive advantages of Yen over Yuan still remain in the financial architecture of Asia, although the interdependence between the currency of Japan and other Asian currencies decreases. Regarding the scale of operations, Yen takes the third place on the world currency market after Dollar and Euro. In 2010, its share almost reached 19%, while only 0.9% is accounted for Yuan. At the same time, the enhancement of China's role on the global financial market, the remarkable share growth of China's foreign trade in Yuans, the activаtion of economic integration processes in Asia essentially increase the opportunities of the major currencies use diversification in the region.

AbstractIncreased economic integration throughout the world, the growing dominance of foreign affiliate production over international exports, the routinization of innovation, and amplified knowledge-intensiveness of FDI collectively characterize the new global economic environment in which SADC nations are attempting to develop and compete. This paper provides a detailed summary of the global economic context and one of its leading engines, namely, science and technology (S&T). Analysis of Africa's post-independence S&T travails and successes constitutes the second section of the paper. Various factors that have collectively arrested S&T growth are discussed. The third and largest section is the analysis of commonalities and particularities of S&T needs and activities by the SADC secretariat and member states. Focused analytical reports on the status of S&T development efforts in Botswana and Zimbabwe comprise the final section. Based on the contextual threats and opportunities discussed above, the paper concludes with two concrete recommendations: integrating and adopting the elements suggested in the paper for a long-term S&T development model, and pursuing state-sponsored or quasi-state-sponsored reverse engineering campaigns.

ABSTRACT The WHO survey results show that the number of DM patients in Indonesia is ranked the 4th largest in the world. DM causes death by 5% every year. Deaths from DM are expected to increase by 50% in the next ten years. The results of the 2007 Central Java RISKESDAS showed that the prevalence of DM in Central Java province was 0.8% and overall was 1.3%. The highest prevalence is found in Cilacap Regency (3.9%), second place is Tegal City Regency (3.1%), for the third place is Surakarta (2.8%), fourth place is Pemalang (2.1%), and fifth place is occupied by Banyumas (1.9%) (Ministry of Health, 2009). This study used an experimental design by treating the group of cases. The research instruments in this study were interview guides about the number of remaining antidiabetic drugs to check the compliance and MMAS questionnaires that had been validated and translated into Indonesian versions (Setyaningsih, 2013). The results of data analysis using the Chi-Square test were obtained p = 0.220 (p> 0.05) based on the MMAS questionnaire, this indicates that this indicates that this study of age has a significant influence on the adherence of antidiabetic use in DM patients in Perum Ketapang Sokaraja Kulon.   Keywords: Age, Diabetes Mellitus, Drug Information

Modern trends of trade-economic relations of the countries within the COVID-19 pandemic have been systemized in the development of mutual relations in particular economy sectors have been identified. Direct connection between the increase of export volume to China and Ukraine GDP growth has been established in the study based on the correlation-regression analysis. Weaknesses and strengths as well as opportunities and threats of mutual relations within the pandemic have been defined. The influence of the world crisis, creating a free trade area, and other factors on foreign trade circulation between Ukraine and China have been studied with the tools of empirical gravity model of international trade. Foreign trade circulation up until 2022 with and without creating a Free Trade Area has been forecast based on the modelled data. Perspective directions of trade-economic relations have been defined; the strategy of extending the trade-economic integration of Ukraine and China within the COVID-19 pandemic and in post-pandemic time within customs tariffs liberalization, intensification of symmetric interdependence and complementarity between the countries, within creating a free trade area, diversifying trade turnovers, overcoming the pandemic, reduction of crisis consequences, and strengthening cooperation in new industries of post-pandemic time has been grounded.

Liberalisation of the global financial market in 90-s last century and early in XXI has resulted in increasing dependence of many countries (both advanced and developing ones) on external financing and significant growth of the sovereign external debts that has become a real threat to the stable development of the world economy. The paper is focusing on the problem of growing external debt of many countries. It has an analysis of the methods aimed at settling and managing the external debt by the state authorities. I paid special attention to the problem of predicting the possibility of the sovereign external debt default. The author concludes that an aggravation of the global external debt problem may become one of the main triggers of a deep financial and economic crisis not only in separate countries or a group of related countries but on a global scale.

This chapter analyses ASEAN as an example of regional economic integration throughout the decades. ASEAN was founded as a means of stability in a region with great threats to regional security. Its member states could hardly vary more in terms of economic impact, political systems, and culture. Nonetheless, ASEAN became one of the most vibrant economic regions in the world following its own ASEAN Way. This chapter analyzes the shift from a security-focused functional community toward a successful economic cooperation. Since its formation, ASEAN's development was driven by its rhetorical strength rather than the actual implementation of measures. Nonetheless, as of today, ASEAN managed to partly overcome this rhetoric dilemma, becoming the third largest market worldwide.

The aim of the study was to assess the efficiencies of players in 1-on-1 situations in terms of their position on the pitch and the match time during the final matches of the World Cup and European Championships from 1990 to 2014. The research was conducted on a sample of 1012 football players whose teams competed in the semi-finals, finals and the third place matches during the Football World Cup and European Championships from 1990 to 2014. The study included the performances of 506 players in 1-on-1 situations during 46 matches that were terminated at the regulation 90 min. The study revealed that during an average match, the players performed 231 times in 1-on-1 situations with 51% accuracy. The level of accuracy in 1-on-1 situations was significantly higher (p ≤ 0.05) in winning teams than in losing teams particularly at the beginning of the game and in the middle zone of the pitch. Moreover, the results of our study showed that the highest effectiveness of the duels was noted in the defence zone and was decreasing along with moving the actions closer to the opponent’s goal. The players competed with similar frequencies on both defence (114 duels on average with 51% accuracy) and attack (113 duels on average with 52% accuracy). The players of the elite football teams exhibited high performance efficiencies in the 1-on-1 duels, especially on their own half of the field and during the early stages of both halves of the match. The accuracy of duels of their performances decreased when the action moved closer to the opponent’s goal and with the time in the game.

The purpose of the research is to analyze the state of gender equality in the labor sphere. The research methods are as follows: system and logical analysis, comparative analysis, generalization and systematization and a number of others. An analysis of current issues in the labor market in the gender dimension has been conducted. In gender relations, a very important problem has not been resolved yet: a significant difference in the average wage of men and women. The Women in Work Index has shown that Iceland and Sweden remain in the top two in terms of the gender gap in OECD member countries, while Slovenia ranks the third place. The Women Business and the Law Index for 2000-2019 among 190 countries in the world, covering eight indicators related to women’s economic participation, has been analyzed. The employment rate of women and men in recent decades has shown that the share of women in labor markets is increasing worldwide.
