The research examines the reality and possibilities of the Libyan tourism sector in developing the local environment, in light of the characteristics and advantages of this sector that enable it to compete internationally,  related to international competition among different countries in terms of economic, educational, , Legal and regulatory .... etc, "and the role of these general indicators in the development of the tourism sector. The importance of this research is that the tourism sector in Libya suffers from the scarcity and lack of specialized studies that are looking at its components and methods of eliminating the negative aspects surrounding it in order to revitalize the environment and strengthen the local economy in general. The study focuses on reviewing the shortcomings of the Libyan state regarding negligence and ignoring the development of the tourism sector in spite of the huge tourism resources available in Libya. This review is to be done through several hypotheses related to the negative aspects related to the development and rehabilitation of the tourism sector in Libya " The occurrence of political unrest and the deterioration of the state. " The research concludes that Libya has huge tourism potential that has not been planned to be exploited optimally or even the promotion of the country has not been considered abroad. The research also concludes that the Libyan economy is an underdeveloped economy that suffers from double standards, This is explained by the significant decline in the ranking of the State of Libya in terms of the various indicators recorded in the report of the competitiveness of tourism and the tourism sector. Far International "2011" for both Western countries or even Arab countries. The research also concludes that the Libyan state did not have any significant role in contributing to the development of tourism in terms of the absence of policies and legislation to enable the public sector to play its role properly in exploiting the tourism components and thus the absence of any economic or tourist plans, Full disappearance of the role of the private sector, complementing the role of the public sector in tourism development, and this complete disappearance of the role of the private sector lies because of the direction of the socialist state so that the role of the private sector was almost abolished by the end of the seventies of the last century. The research considers among the most important analyzes that the chances of recovery of the Libyan economy lies on the revitalization of the tourism sector in a manner that leads to the various economic interactions within the country "tourism industry composite" and the development of the local environment through the development of various economic sectors, "the most important sectors of transport and services and communications, As well as the elimination of several economic problems, the most important of which is economic stagnation and unemployment, as tourism is a labor-intensive industry.

Although 90% of the tourism industry consists of small businesses, the approach of consecutive governments in Malaysia is that tourism has reached a stage where its promotion and funding is the responsibility of the private sector.  When national and regional tourist promotional boards were established, it was the intention that these would act as a vehicle for cooperation between the public and private sectors.  This has proved to be extremely optimistic, with only a small number of tourism businesses actually joining in the decision-making processes of the direction for tourism development.  The role of tourism development has been further undermined with the increasing rate of tourist arrivals, further implicating the control of public-sector resources, while governments place reliance on private/public partnerships as the model for the future.   This research paper reports on the findings of a two-year study on the promotion of transportation in tourism development in Malaysia.  It establishes the role of private and public sector interests in the context of tourism transport planning and development.  A qualitative approach to in-depth interviews was conducted with respondents from the public sector (policy makers and local authority and government agency representatives) and the private sector (tour and travel agents) in Malaysia.  The empirical evidence has shown that implementing stakeholders within the tourism industry are receptive to the promotion of transportation and aware of the differing roles each sector plays in the context of tourism transport planning and development.  However, they do not fully exploit the complementary role played by the other sector for mutual benefit via consultations and public private partnerships at the planning stage.

This study sought to investigate on hotel investors’ perspectives on the role of the public sector in Kenya’s competitiveness as an investment destination for the tourism industry. The study adopted an exploratory research design involving 24 executives drawn from hotel companies that operated 3- to 5-star hotels in Kenya. The study found out that entrepreneurship, and legislation and regulation functions were considered the most significant roles of Kenya’s public sector in creating a competitive environment for the tourism sector. The study further found out that the public sector roles of coordination, planning and stimulation were considered of less significance to attracting hotel investments. The paper recommends that the government seeks to address the noted concerns and notes the need for further research on the efficacy of the different investment promotion initiatives in view of the amount of resources that the government commits in terms of incentives to the sector.

Purpose: Engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contracts are on their way to becoming the most common type of contract used by the private sector for large-scale infrastructure projects. Every project requires a strong relationship between all of the experts participating in EPC projects and the client. This relationship must be solidly established by an architect; otherwise, the project may fail for all parties involved, including the client, contractor, lenders, government, and others. The purpose of this study is to identify if the working of the EPC contracts is favourable for the architectural profession, and to identify the way in which the working could be improved. Methodology: A qualitative approach was applied to analyze the critical points of EPC contracts based upon reviews of related case studies from the public sector and supplementary interviews with professionals in the field. Main Finding: The architect's role in an EPC contract is not crucial and is equal to other stakeholders involved in the project. Also, EPC contractors have the power to dictate the workflow of the project and hence, architects might have to compromise in terms of the design, compensation, etc. Implications: It is very important for every project to have an outcome based on each stakeholders/consultants inputs specially on larger projects, this article is a step towards understanding the role of architects under an EPC contract as the future projects will come under its purview.  Novelty: The study is done under the lens of a newly graduated architect and not as any other professional, thereby trying to develop an understanding for fresh architects.

Crime problems largely result from opportunities, temptations, and provocations that have been provided to offenders unintentionally by those pursuing other private interests. There is a widespread notion that the state and its agencies can and ought to take full responsibility for crime control and that there is, therefore, nothing that nonstate actors can or need to do. In practice, there is little that the state can do directly to address the opportunities, temptations, and provocations for crime; but where crime control responsibilities have been accepted in the private sector, successful measures to reduce opportunities and temptations have been devised and adopted, preventing many crimes and reducing costs that would otherwise fall on the state as well as on victims. This article sets out the reasons why a shift in responsibility for crime prevention from the public to private sector can produce patterns of crime control that are both effective and socially desirable, albeit important roles remain for the public sector in stimulating and supporting such measures.

As If

Nigeria, like most countries around the world, has turned to Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) to finance its infrastructure deficit. However, it appears that the government of Nigeria looks towards PPPs as the major solution to the country’s infrastructure crisis. In a sense PPPs are being sold to the public as if they were free, that the private sector would come in with its funds, provide the desired services and that the problem with the country’s infrastructure would automatically cease. This paper argues that this supposition is a myth and that the role of PPPs in the provision of public infrastructure is more nuanced than is being bandied around. PPPs are not the panacea to all of the country’s infrastructure problems and also are far from being completely free. It is however the case that if appropriately deployed, in most cases PPPs provide some advantages over conventional public sector procurements. This paper explores the different advantages and disadvantages of PPPs and suggests ways in which PPPs may be effectively used to improve the country’s infrastructure with reduced fiscal exposure to government.

Background: Polyradiculoneuritis is considered to be the biggest cause of flaccid paralysis in the world and even after the progression phase, some patients may present with disabling residual deficits, both sensory and motor. Objectives: Analyze the current panorama of treatment procedures for acute demyelinating polyradiculoneuritis performed in the State of São Paulo and correlate the current epidemiology with the results obtained. Methods: A literature review and an observational, descriptive and transversal data collect on treatment for acute demyelinating polyradiculoneuritis, available at DATASUS from January 2008 to December 2020, and articles available at Scielo and PubMed. Results: There were 7,917 hospitalizations, representing a total expenditure of R$ 9,392,552.04, 2009 being the year with the highest number of hospitalizations (809) and 2017 with the highest amount spent during the period (R$ 967,284.65). 805 are elective and 7,109 are urgent, with 1,736 occurring in the public sector and 3,506 in the private sector. All of them were considered medium complexity. The total mortality rate was 1.57, corresponding to 124 deaths, 2019 being the year with the highest mortality rate, 2.94, and 2015 with the lowest rate, 0.53. The mortality rate for elective procedures was 0.99 compared to 1.63 for urgent procedures, whereas in the public sector it was 1.61 compared to 1.23 for the private sector. The average total hospital stay was 8.3 days, with an average cost of R$ 1,186.38. Conclusion: It is important to correctly notify the procedures performed, improving the epidemiological analysis and directing investments in health more appropriately.
