The Politburo Resolution No.08 on developing tourism into a spearhead economic sector has brought about the advantages of promoting tourism activities by the exploitation of natural resources, reducing poverty, and boosting the citizen’s income. Under these beneficial conditions, Dak Nong province can have more opportunities to develop its local’ s economy by investing in tourism. However, the interrelation of both competition and cooperation with the Central Highlands provinces, Dak Nong, needs to determine its own way to enhance the competitiveness for tourism development. Based on the theory of tourist destination attractiveness, the authors confirm that designing specific tourism products to promote destination image and to build up the attractiveness of tourist destinations in Dak Nong are necessary. Through assessment of the current situation and potential of tourism development, by using secondary information analyses and in-depth interviews, the result shows that tourism in Dak Nong has not been effectively exploited. In the coming time, specific tourism products based on resources from Dak Nong Geopark can be the key factors to promote the tourism image of Dak Nong.

Deforestation ell the upstream of the river reduces the ability to resist the flow of cm abundant water into an increasingly shallow river that cause flooding; depleted plants lead to erosion of soil, pile of garbage on the streets and in trash cans; narrowing offorest reduces the areafor th? endangered animal to live so that the species would he more increasingly scarce. as well as industrials and vehicles Jill the air with waste disposal and river pollution can cause damage to human health. Environmental resources, such as air. water, soil and biota can provide valuable economic goods. either directly or indirectly. From the economic point of vielv, misuse of resources utilization of common property caused by the lack of balance mechanism of the individual awareness that limit the exploitation, decrease the economic value of environmental resources or even lost.

The paper studies the factors of secular stagnation. Key factors of long-term slowdown in economic growth include the slowdown of technological development, aging population, human capital accumulation limits, high public debt, creative destruction process violation etc. The authors analyze key theoretical aspects of long-term stagnation and study the impact of these factors on Japanies economy. The authors conclude that most of the factors have significant influence on the Japanese economy for recent decades, but they cannot explain all dynamics. For Russia, on the contrary, we do not see any grounds for considering the decline in the economy since 2013 as an episode of secular stagnation.

The state of Tamil Nadu, India, is in the grips of a water crisis, with demand far outstripping supply. As the economy of the state grows, this crisis is going to become ever more serious. To date the focus of state water policy has been on trying to augment supplies, from within the state (even from desalinization) and from neighboring states. In addition, the water use is regulated in a way that does not encourage the highest value uses. International experience shows that supply-side measures must be complemented by demand-side measures and that practice must move away from fixed, command-and-control allocation policies towards flexible allocation mechanisms, which facilitate the voluntary movement of water from low to high-value uses. This study addresses the question of whether such a change in allocation policies is worth doing. It addresses this question by developing optimization models for each of the 17 river basins in Tamil Nadu (including an assessment of the economic value of water in different end-uses – agriculture, domestic and industry), then using an input–output model embedded in a social accounting matrix (SAM), to assess the impact of these changes on the state economy and on different rural and urban employment groups. The results suggest that a shift to a flexible water allocation system would bring major environmental, economic and social benefits to the state. Compared with the current “fixed sectoral allocation” policy, a flexible allocation policy would, in 2020, result in 15% less overall water used; 24% less water pumped from aquifers; 20% higher state income; with all strata, rich and poor, benefiting similarly, with one important exception, that of agricultural laborers.
