This paper investigates the economic impacts of COVID-19 on households based on differences in the Socio-Economic Status (SES). We determine the household-level effects of the COVID-19 by using Religion, Mother tongue, Social background, Age, Education Qualification, Type of family, Marital status and Household Income. Poor households and households with low Socio-Economic prerequisites are struggling the most due to the pandemic. We used primary data of 50 sample respondents collected through snowball sampling technique using an Interview Schedule from Coimbatore. Poor households were less resilient and more likely to fall back into poverty due to COVID-19, while the opposite stands true for non-poor households with high SES. There are nonetheless very few literature articles associated with the influences of shocks on the Socio-Economic Status of specific households and communities in the developing world like India.

This paper investigates economic impacts of COVID-19 on households based on differences in the socio-economic status (SES). We determine the household-level effects of the COVID-19 shock using income sources, types of industries, communities’ resilience, household susceptibility, and relevant policy measures. For this purpose, we used primary data of 555 households collected through snowball sampling technique using an online survey questionnaire from different villages mostly located in Sichuan Province, China. Using step-wise binary logistic regression analysis, we estimated and validated the model. Results suggest the use of SES as a better measure for understanding the impacts of COVID-19 on different households. We find that households with low SES tend to depend more on farmland income and transfer payments from the government. Contrarily, high SES households focus more on business and local employment as sources of income generation. Poor households were less resilient and more likely to fall back into poverty due to COVID-19, while the opposite stands true for non-poor households with high SES. Based on the estimations, policies encouraging employment and businesses complemented with loans on lower interest rates are recommended, which may increase the SES, thus minimizing vulnerability and enhancing the households’ resilience towards poverty alleviation and economic shocks.

Influence of demographic variables on banking has continued to attract the interest of researchers over the years with a good number focussing on impact of demographic variables on choice of banks by customers. This study however differs from previous studies in that its focus is on the evaluation of bank products appeal across demographic variables in South Africa and Nigeria. This descriptive study made use of primary data collected by administering validated and pre-tested questionnaires to 3,684 bank customers within selected strategic locations across Nigeria and South Africa using the snowball sampling technique. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data generated. High Chi-Square statistics (corroborated with cross – tabulation and correlation analyses) coupled with very low probability values indicate highly significant associations between demographic variables and the dependent variables. The study recommends customer-centric approach on the part of banks to be able to provide customers with effective and unique value offers for various customer segments. Also, policy intervention is required to promote infrastructural upgrade for better product and service delivery. A more inclusive regulatory framework is required to draw more of the unbanked self – employed populace in the interest of boosting the economic performance of both countries.

This study begins from a simple question on how Dayak Benuaq and Dayak Tunjung/Tonyoii people(individually and collectively) are able to maintain their local wisdom and local culture in the midst of theambush of mass media exposure and then acknowledged as the Dayak tribes who are still ‘Beradat (Wellmannered)”.Their local wisdom which is still maintained wereable to counteract the negative effects ofmassmedia exposureso it can be used as a model of literacy media, either throughmedia literacy education or media literacy movement. This study used a qualitative explanatory method and used a communication ethnographic approach in fi eld. Primary data was collected through interviewsed and observations of someDayak Benuaq and Dayak Tunjung people, including some community leaders and local governmentoffi cials that found with the snowball sampling technique.
