Many countries around the world are slowly beginning to move from managing the COVID-19 crisis to recovery and reopening of economies. In Malaysia, the government has launched various initiatives with the main aim to empower people, propel business and stimulate the economy. However, the socio-economic shock brought by COVID-19 pandemic is of the magnitude that the world has not experienced in decades. Hence, government alone cannot address the enormous challenge without collaborating with the diverse and inclusive stakeholders. As one of the collaborators, zakat institution is well positioned to play a significant role in this transformation. However, in meeting the demand for this role, zakat institutions need to adapt to the major shifts in many aspects of the pre pandemic way of doing things. One significant shift started at the beginning of the pandemic in Malaysia where many industries experience sharp increase in the adoption of digital channels. This is expected to accelerate and moving forward the government is providing help in moving towards more comprehensive adoption of digitalization. Given the current scenario, this paper proposes a model based on digitalization of collaborative zakat management for Pusat Pungutan Zakat, Wilayah Persekutuan (PPZ-MAIWP). The model provides a starting point in understanding the capability required to move towards more comprehensive digitalization of services provided by PPZ-MAIWP. The digitalization model is based on a collaborative effort between PPZ-MAIWP and other organisations in distributing zakat for empowerment initiatives. Using a developed impact assessment prototype system, this paper will provide a simulation results where PPZ-MAWIP will be able to short list organisations based on accumulated highest score received for the following components: governance structures, capability to deliver initiatives effectively and clarity of targeted socio-economic impact. Once the organisations are short listed, PPZ will then call for an online meeting with the selected organisations before making the final decision. The use of the digital model allows PPZ-MAIWP to make decisions faster, more objective and adapt to remote workplace. In addition, the selection criteria can also be used subsequently by PPZ-MAIWP to monitor the progress of the initiatives and also for the selected organisations to report on their progress. This forms part of the risk management process and in turn enhances effective delivery of sustainable empowerment initiatives funded by zakat fund. It is also an important mechanism to facilitate timely reporting on the social economic impact delivered that is crucial in enhancing stakeholders’ engagement and trust. Hence, this system accelerates good governance practices throughout the zakat distribution ecosystem. The model and the simulation presented can also act as a starting point in operationalisation of more comprehensive digitalization by PPZ in the new normal. Overall, the new normal provides substantial opportunities for PPZ to accelerate adoption of digitalization and good governance practices throughout the zakat ecosystem.

Citizens are important stakeholders and play a critical role in advocating and enabling public institutions to become more transparent, accountable, and effective and suggest innovative solutions to complex development challenges. Citizen engagement is at the core of good governance. Mygov.in is a platform to engage citizens and get their input and suggestions for various government policies and plans in India. MyGov platform provides an opportunity to citizens across the world to engage directly with the government departments, policymakers, and implementers. MyGov is planned as the key platform for all citizen engagement needs of the country across various departments and ministries. The presence of such a digital platform in a democratic country reflects willingness on part of the government to share information and make citizens a partner in decision making. This chapter elaborates on the need, discusses the MyGov initiative, compares it to other such initiatives globally and highlights major issues and concerns in the citizen engagement process.

Insight Into

The rapidly burgeoning literature surrounding COVID-19 pandemic fetishistically and prematurely tried to catch the academic momentum, taking almost an a priori, non-debatable, starting point of the conceptualization of the pandemic as the ?new normal?. In Pandemic: COVID-19 Shakes the World and Pandemic! 2: Chronicles of a Time Lost, Slavoj Zizek frames the pandemic as multiple global crises, arguing it will aggressively and drastically rupture the global societal norms and dynamics creating a new order. However, did it? This essay debates this question through the theoretical lenses of Badiou?s Event. It starts by laying down the fundamental theoretical principles and mapping the necessary criteria needed to be fulfilled in order for a happening to be named an Event. Further, it navigates through ideas and arguments presented in Zizek?s publications localizing the pandemic?s global characteristics. Finally, it theoretically deconstructs them providing us with the fundamental answer to the question what COVID-19 pandemic is: a Badiouian event that has/is/will construct the global ?new normal?, multiple consequential crises, or just a temporary situation that reaffirms the existing societal normatives worldwide.

Coronavirus disease [Covid 19] is an infectious communicable disease causing severe causality among the world’s population. A communicable disease with high intense spread rates originated from China. As a result the world has locked all its gates, prevails in the entire world. Economy the most affected sector in any country, daily life living is now restricted. The main aim of this study is to test the knowledge and create awareness on various attributes that are related to the Indian economy among the Trichy population. A self assessed questionnaire containing 14 questions about Indian economy during COVID 19 were framed and was shared through an online survey platform.

Over the past decade, millions of refugees have fled their countries of origin and asked for asylum abroad. Some of these refugees do not receive asylum, but are not deported. Instead they are detained, or denied basic rights of residency, some forced into enclosed camps. Hoping to escape such conditions, they wish to return to unsafe countries, and ask for help from non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. In such cases, should NGOs and the UN assist refugees to return? Drawing on original data gathered in South Sudan, and existing data from around the world, I argue that they should assist with return if certain conditions are met. First, the UN and NGOs must try to put an end to coercive conditions before helping with return. Secondly, helping with return must not encourage the government to expand the use of coercive policies to encourage more to return. Finally, NGOs and the UN must ensure that refugees are fully informed of the risks of returning. Organizations must either conduct research in countries of origin or lobby the government to allow refugees to visit their countries of origin before making a final decision.

Rule Making

In the World War period and after, the use of extraordinary powers by the executive for legislative purposes became so widespread in Europe that constitutional theorists began to find it convenient to give up the doctrine of legislative supremacy. The constitutional basis for these extraordinary powers has been found in one of two ways: either the parliament may authorize the government to exercise certain legislative functions by way of delegation, or certain provisions in the constitution may be interpreted as giving the executive the right under certain circumstances not only to take specific administrative steps, but also to issue rules of a more general character. In either case, the question invariably arises as to how far the delegation of power may go, or as to the degree to which alleged constitutional emergency provisions may be used to supersede parliamentary legislation.In France, no constitutional emergency power is provided in the “organic” laws of 1875 which could give a starting point for independent rule-making activity. A law of April 3, 1878, defined very closely the conditions under which a state of siege may be declared and surrounded such a declaration with elaborate provisions for parliamentary supervision. It is apparent that this statute does not allow the government to decree rules of a general character.

The direction of development in Indonesia has strongly integrated with the concept of good governance started from the strengthening of international market that is both imperialist and colony thereby contradicting to the tradition of developing countries. This leads to the establishment of sound governance as an alternative concept to improve the government's capacity to innovate in policy and administration. The development of Mamminasata Metropolitan area in South Sulawesi province experiences difficulties in implementing the coordination, integration, synchronization and cannot accommodate the whole event in order to realize the interconnection of development across districts / cities, whereas the central government makes this as a National Strategic Areas (KSN) and leading area in the East Indonesia. This study aims to explore and analyze the sound governance practices in the development program of Mamminasata Metropolitan area focusing on five dimensions, namely process, structure, values, management, and policy. The results show that 1) in the process dimension, the stakeholders involved in the Mamminasata development program establish inter-regional cooperation and coordinate externally and internally of the area ranging from planning to the implementation of development activities; 2) in the structure dimension, the government has established clear organization and regulation in regulating the development process. 3) in the value dimension, Mamminasata development program is based on the responsiveness of local government and has up-holded justice in accordance with the potential of each area; 4) in the management dimension, the government personnel has already had knowledge about the Mamminasata concept, but they are still experiencing problems in the use of technology because of limited resources; and 5) in the policy dimension, the government has encouraged the public to participate directly in policy making and implementation of development programs. Therefore, it can be concluded that the five dimensions of sound governance has been practiced in the Mamminasata Metropolitan area development.
