Before 1939, Indonesia was the largest copra exporter in the world (FAO 1983). But since then until 1970 it was only the se­cond largest copra exporter after the Philippines (Heesch & Kuhl­mann 1982). Between 1970 and 1980 the exports of copra from Indonesia declined drastically from 184,000 tons in 1970 to only 36,000 tons in 1980, on average a decrease of about 37.6 per cent per annum for the period (Asnawi & Darwis 1984). Since 1983 Indonesia has had to stop exports of copra due to a deficit in na­tional coconut production relative to domestic needs. For example, in 1983 the total production of coconut in Indonesia was only about 2.4 million tons copra equivalent while the total consump­tion of coconut in the country in that year was about 2.48 million tons. Thus, there was a deficit in coconut production of about 80,000 tons copra equivalent in the country in that year (Asna­wi & Darwis 1984).

The Cost

SETTING: The Philippines has a population of over 90 million people and is one of the 22 highest TB burden countries in the world.OBJECTIVE: To understand the economic cost of non-adherence to TB medicines due to loss to follow up and stock-outs in the Philippines.DESIGN: Data were collected on the economic costs of non-adherence to TB medicines and a model was developed to show those costs under different scenarios.RESULTS: The model showed that as many as 1958 and 233 persons are likely to have died as a result of DS-TB and MDR-TB loss to follow up, respectively, and 588 persons are likely to have died as a result of TB medicine stock outs. The related economic impact in each case is likely have been to be as much as US$72.2 million, US$13.4 million and US$21.0 million, respectively.CONCLUSION: The economic costs of non-adherence to TB medicines due to loss to follow-up and stock-outs represent a significant economic burden for the country and it is likely that the cost of addressing these problems would be much less than this burden and, therefore, a wise investment.

By Products

Concrete is the premier construction material around the world and is most widely used in all types of construction works, including infrastructure, low and high-rise buildings, and domestic developments. It is a man-made product, essentially consisting of a mixture of cement, aggregates, water and admixture(s). Inert granular materials such as sand, crushed stone or gravel form the major part of the aggregates. Traditionally aggregates have been readily available at economic prices and of qualities to suit all purposes. But the continued extensive extraction use of aggregates from natural resources has been questioned because of the depletion of quality primary aggregates and greater awareness of environmental protection. In light of this, the non-availability of natural resources to future generations has also been realized. Different alternative waste materials and industrial by products such as fly ash, bottom ash, recycled aggregates, foundry sand, China clay sand, crumb rubber, glass were replaced with natural aggregate and investigated properties of the concretes. Apart from above mentioned waste materials and industrial by products, few studies identified that coconut shells, the agricultural by product can also be used as aggregate in concrete. According to a report, coconut is grown in more than 86 countries worldwide, with a total production of 54 billion nuts per annum. India occupies the premier position in the world with an annual production of 13 billion nuts, followed by Indonesia and the Philippines.

Sacred Canopy

This article deals with Catholic Charismatics in Italy. The brief description of the case study gives a chance to make some more general comments on what is happening under the sacred canopy of Global Catholicism where the Spirit blows, and furthermore in relation with so-called Global Pentecostalism. In other words, my working hypothesis includes the following statements: (a) Catholic Pentecostalism constitutes a variant of a more global phenomenon, which seems to challenge the organizational model of historic Christian churches. (b) The study of the Italian case is interesting because its story shows the extent to which Pentecostalism questions the Roman form of Catholicism. Elsewhere in the world, the development of the phenomenon has not encountered the same difficulties as it did in Italy. Indeed, in some cases (Brazil and the Philippines), it has been supported and accepted as a sign of new religious vitality. From this point of view, Rome is relatively far away. The Roman–Tridentine model governed by the clergy resists in Italy, while it appears weaker where the Spirit blows wherever it wants. The Charismatic movement was gradually brought back to the bed of ecclesial orthodoxy after a long persuasive work carried out by bishops and theologians towards the leaders of the movement itself. However, despite this ecclesification/clericalization process, the charismatic tension remains, and the expectation for a pneumatic church constitutes an implicit form of criticism of the Roman form of Catholicism.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dampak ekonomi akibat IUU fishing pada perikanan tangkap pelagis besar di WPPNRI 715. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian studi kasus dengan teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan multistage random sampling, metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah bioekonomi model. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Desember 2018 sampai dengan Agustus 2019 dan sampling pengambilan data di provinsi Sulawesi Utara dan DKI Jakarta. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa produksi legal ikan pelagis besar pada maximum economic yield (MEY) adalah sebesar 368.522,25 ton per tahun dengan effort sebanyak 554 902 trip per tahun dan perolehan rente sebesar Rp3,06 trilyun/tahun sedangkan produksi total (legal dan IUU fishing) adalah sebesar 530.451,63 ton per tahun dengan effort sebanyak 929 414 trip per tahun dan rente sebesar Rp6,73 trilyun/tahun. IUU fishing menimbulkan dampak hilangnya potensi perolehan rente ekonomi pada pemanfaatan sumber daya ikan pelagis besar di WPPNRI 715 yaitu sebesar Rp3,66 trilyun/tahun. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa IUU fishing merugikan perikanan tangkap pelagis besar di WPPNRI 715 sehingga diperlukan rumusan kebijakan dalam pengawasan sumberdaya kelautan dan perikanan berupa peningkatan kualitas sumberdaya manusia dalam bidang perikanan, penggunaan satelit pemantauan dan kebijakan peningkatan kesadaran dan penegakkan hukum di laut.Title: Economic Impact of IUU Fishing on Big Pelagic Fish in WPPNRI 715This research aims to determine the economic impact of IUU fishing large pelagic fish in WPPNRI 715. The research is a case study with multistage random sampling. Data were analysed with bioeconomics model for fisheries. The research was conducted from December 2018 to August 2019, and the sampling areas of data collection was in the provinces of North Sulawesi and DKI Jakarta. The results of the analysis showed that the legal production of large pelagic fish at maximum economic yield (MEY) is 368,522.25 tons per year with an effort of 554 902 trips per year, and economic rent at IDR3.06 trillions/year. The total production (legal and IUU fishing) is 530,451.63 tons per year with an effort of 929.414 trips per year and economic rent of IDR 6.73 trillions/year. IUU fishing has an impact on the loss of potential economic rent on the large pelagic fish resources in the WPPNRI 715 amounting to IDR 3.66 trillion/year. The results showed that IUU fishing has a detrimental economic impact on the large pelagic fish in WPPNRI 715. Therefore, a policy is necessary to increase supervision of marine and fishery resources by improving the quality of fishery human resources, the use of monitoring satellites and policies to increase awareness and law enforcement at sea.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

This paper addresses the fields of social and service design in development contexts, practice-based and constructive design research. A framework for social design for services will be explored through the survey of existing literature, specifically by drawing on eight doctoral theses that were produced by the World Design research group. The work of World Design researcher-designers was guided by a strong ethos of social and service design for development in marginalised communities. The paper also draws on a case study in Namibia and South Africa titled ‘My Dream World’. This case study presents a good example of how the social design for services framework functions in practice during experimentation and research in the field. The social design for services framework transfers the World Design group’s research results into practical action, providing a tool for the facilitation of design and research processes for sustainable development in marginal contexts.

PRODUCTION ACTIVITY It was not so many years ago it seems when speaking of motion pictures from Asia meant Japanese films as represented by Akira Kurosawa and films from India made by Satyajit Ray. But suddenly time passes and now we are impressed and immersed in the flow of films from Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, South Korea, the Philippines, with Japan a less significant player, and India and Pakistan more prolific than ever in making entertainment for the mass audience. No one has given it a name or described it as "New Wave," it is simply Asian Cinema -- the most exciting development in filmmaking taking place in the world today. In China everything is falling apart yet it manages to hold together, nothing works yet it keeps on going, nothing is ever finished or properly maintained, and yes, here time does wait for every man. But as far...
