In recent years, the street vendor economy, an informal economic activity in which individual workers obtain income by selling legal goods in urban public space, has developed rapidly all over the world. This phenomenon is inseparable from the change of attitude and policy towards informal economy in various countries, certainly, the street-stall economy has its unique charm. This paper uses the SWOT analysis, one of the desktop research’s essential methods, to obtain the international experience and inspiration for the street vendor economy through the analysis of the China, Vietnam and South Africa. By analyzing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threat of the policy and law in the Vietnam and South Africa respectively, the enlightenment from these two countries the author had studied might help promote the perfection of the policy in China.

Chapter 5 develops an ethnography of street vendors, their organizations, and the city officials who they interact with in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. The chapter is based on 14 months of ethnographic fieldwork in the city over four research trips in 2012, 2014 to 2015, 2018, and 2019 as well as administrative data on 31,906 street vending licenses in the city. Fieldwork included interviews, participant observation at dozens of meetings between bureaucrats and organized vendors, ride-alongs with the Municipal Guard, a street vendor survey, working as a street vendor in a clothing market, and selling wedding services with a street vendor cooperative. The theory’s observable implications are illustrated with ethnographic evidence, survey results, and license data from La Paz. I discuss how street vending has changed in the city and how officials have intervened in collective action decisions as the informal sector grew. The chapter demonstrates that officials increased benefits to organized vendors as the costs of regulating markets increased. Additionally, the leaders that take advantage of these offers tend to have more resources than their colleagues, and as the offers increased, so did the level of organization among the city’s street vendors. The chapter also discusses the many trade-offs that officials make in implementing different policies, and how officials manage the often combative organizations that they encourage.

Chapter 1 introduces the puzzle of organized street vendors with the stories of two street vendors: Rosa, the founding leader of a champagne ladies’ union in La Paz, and Renato, who works as an unorganized electronics vendor in São Paulo. The chapter then situates the puzzle within existing research on collective action, civil society, informal work, and state capacity. According to most scholars, informal workers do not organize, which makes Rosa’s union and its affiliation with a national street vendor confederation puzzling. The chapter outlines an explanation for why informal workers organize, assesses alternative explanations around grassroots activism and clientelism, and presents the research design for the book. Specifically, it finds that officials encourage informal workers to organize self-regulating groups. The chapter argues that this is most likely to happen where officials have governance goals and career ambitions but face capacity constraints and where informal workers have the know-how to organize self-regulating groups.

The existence of street vendors (in Indonesian called Pedagang Kaki Lima/PKL), who are often shabby and disturb the visual image of the city, has become an issue raised in this community service program. This service program assists PKL Communities along Wahidin Sudirohusodo Street Yogyakarta (in front of the Duta Wacana Christian University Campus). The PKL Wahidin community has the intention to improve itself to organize street vendors that involve relevant stakeholders (according to the Yogyakarta City ‘gandeng-gendong’ program) it is hoped that it can become an identity for an image of a city in Yogyakarta. The process of designing street vendors tents using participatory design methods, community-based design with stages in the form of surveys, observations, interviews, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and making tent design mockups. The participatory design method chosen was expected to make the community have a ‘sense of belonging’ to the arrangement of street vendors along Wahidin Street so that sustainability would be created. This tent design can later be moved (movable) and following user needs and because the location of the design sidewalks remains environmentally friendly to pedestrians.

Abstract Background We evaluated the incidence and operational impact of travelers’ diarrhea (TD), influenza-like illness (ILI) and undifferentiated febrile illness (FI) in US active duty (AD) personnel traveling outside the continental U.S for deployment (DEP), joint military training exercises (EXR) or other military travel (e.g. Temporary Duty Travel) (TDY). Methods AD personnel traveling for ≤ 6.5 months were prospectively enrolled between 2010-2019. Participants completed a post-travel survey regarding risk behaviors, illnesses and impact on daily activities. Trip purpose was categorized into DEP, EXR, TDY and syndromic definitions were used to identify cases of TD, ILI and FI based on symptoms. A multivariate logistic regression model with backward selection was used to determine the odds ratio associated with partial or complete incapacitation due to infections (a composite endpoint of either TD, ILI or FI). Results 1822 servicemembers were enrolled: 36.2% traveled on DEP, 36.2% for EXR and 27.7% for TDY (Table 1). 83.5% of personnel traveling for DEP were Special Operations and Marine units, and 82% of the EXR group participated in Pacific Pathways. Overall, 19% of US personnel experienced infections associated with partial or complete incapacitation (median duration of incapacitation- TD: 1 day; ILI: 4 days; FI: 3 days). DEP personnel had a longer travel duration and the highest rate of partial or complete incapacitation due to TD, ILI or FI (Figure 1 and 2). Risk factors associated with partial or complete incapacitation due to infections were non-adherence with malaria chemoprophylaxis (OR: 1.7 [95%CI:1.2-2.4]), close contact with locals (OR:1.7 [95%CI:1.3-2.2]), inability to clean hands regularly before meals (OR: 1.7 [95%CI: 1.3-2.3]), fresh water or rodent exposure OR: 1.4 (95%CI:1.1-1.9) and consuming street vendor food (OR:1.8 [95%CI:1.3-2.4]). Table 1. Demographic and travel characteristics of AD personnel traveling outside the continental US. Proportion of AD servicemembers that experienced TD, ILI or undifferentiated febrile illness during DEP, EXR, TDY (p<0.05 for the comparison of each illness between DEP, EXR and TDY). Figure 2. Proportion of AD personnel with partial or complete incapacitation due to TD, ILI or FI during DEP, EXR or TDY (p < 0.05 for the comparison of each illness between DEP, EXR and TDY). Conclusion Infectious disease syndromes are common during overseas military travel. TD had the highest negative impact on military travel especially among DEP personnel. We identified several modifiable risk factors associated with incapacitating infections which can be used to inform preventive and treatment strategies.

The severity of childhood diarrhoea is linked with poor socioeconomic status, unhygienic living environment, and caregiver’s behaviour. This study is to determine the risk factors and economic burden associated with diarrhoea in children under 5 years of age. A case-control study using convenience sampling method with 105 cases and 105 controls was performed in Menggatal health clinic, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah between March-June 2017. Younger caregivers, without formal education, poor knowledge, practice handwashing with water only and stopped breastfeeding were associated with diarrhoea. Household with poor economic status, a family of five and more, crowded, with a pet, unsafe drinking water, no sanitary toilet, unsanitary garbage disposal and consuming street vendor food also associated with diarrhoea. The mean of total direct costs, total indirect costs and total incurred costs were (Ringgit Malaysia) RM 9.70, RM 59.40, and RM 14.30, respectively. As a conclusion, the risk factors for diarrhoea under 5 years of age still presents in Sabah. Environmental factors and hygienic practice are needed to control under 5 diarrhoea.
