Reconstruction of Pakistan Economy— An Entrepreneur’s View Point

Investment, production and export are sine quo non of a viable economy. Pakistan has, however, constantly suffered from its inability to achieve this viability— more recently arising out of the nuclear testing in May 1998, followed by the change of government in October 1999 and the 11th September 2001 disaster at the World Trade Centre in New York, which ultimately lead to the war in Afghanistan.

Cooperative International Direct Marketing: An Alternative for Asian-Pacific Countries to Increase Exports to Industrial Market Economies

Exporters from Asian-Pacific Countries can successfully establish marketing presence in Industrial Market Economies by directly marketing products in these country markets. Direct marketing potential in Industrial Marketing Economies can be determined by examining two critical factors: the direct marketing infrastructure and emerging environmental changes. Although the resource requirement for direct marketing is quite substantial, exporters, who combine their resources to engage in cooperative international direct marketing, will find it easier to establish marketing presence in Industrial Market Economics

Sampel : dilakukan dengan cara Accidental Sampling dengan jumlah sampel 91 responden. Hasil penelitian : menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan yang signifikan pelayanan petugas administrasi antara kepuasan pasien dengan nilai P = 0,000 (P < 0,5) ada hubungan yang signifikan pelayanan perawat antara kepuasan pasien dengan nilai P = 0,000 (P < 0,5) tidak ada hubungan pelayanan dokter antara kepuasan pasien dengan nilai P = 0,087 (P < 0,05) ada hubungan yang signifikan pelayanan petugas apotek antara kepuasan pasien dengan nilai P = 0,000 (P < 0,5) tidak ada hubungan tarif antara kepuasan pasien dengan nilai P = 0,028 (P < 0,5). Saran : kepada instansi khususnya bagi petugas Apotek Rumah Sakit Umum Mokopido Kabupaten Tolitoli dapat lebih meningkatkan kualitas pelayanan di Apotek sehingga dapat meningkatkan kepuasan pasien

The Turkish Wage Curve: Evidence from the Household Labor Force Survey

This paper examines the Turkish wage curve using individual data from the Household Labor Force Survey (HLFS) including 26 NUTS-2 regions over the period 2005-2008. When the local unemployment rate is treated as predetermined, there is evidence in favor of the wage curve only for younger and female workers. However, if the lagged unemployment rate is used as an instrument for current unemployment rate, we find an unemployment elasticity of -0.099. We also find a higher elasticity for younger, less educated, low experienced workers than for older, more educated and more experienced workers. Another important finding is that the wages of females in Turkey are significantly more responsive to local unemployment rates than their male counterparts.wage curve, fixed effects, instrumental variables, two-stage least squares

Spin Fluctuations and the Pseudogap in Organic Superconductors

We show that there are strong similarities in the spin lattice relaxation of non-magnetic organic charge transfer salts, and that these similarities can be understood in terms of spin fluctuations. Further, we show that, in all of the kappa-phase organic superconductors for which there is nuclear magnetic resonance data, the energy scale for the spin fluctuations coincides with the energy scale for the pseudogap. This suggests that the pseudogap is caused by short-range spin correlations. In the weakly frustrated metals k-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu[N(CN)_2]Br, k-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu(NCS)_2, and k-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu[N(CN)_2]Cl (under pressure) the pseudogap opens at the same temperature as coherence emerges in the (intralayer) transport. We argue that this is because the spin correlations are cut off by the loss of intralayer coherence at high temperatures. We discuss what might happen to these two energy scales at high pressures, where the electronic correlations are weaker. In these weakly frustrated materials the data is well described by the chemical pressure hypothesis (that anion substitution is equivalent to hydrostatic pressure). However, we find important differences in the metallic state of k-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu_2(CN)_3, which is highly frustrated and displays a spin liquid insulating phase. We also show that the characteristic temperature scale of the spin fluctuations in (TMTSF)_2ClO_4 is the same as superconducting critical temperature, which may be evidence that spin fluctuations mediate the superconductivity in the Bechgaard salts.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures; to appear in PR

Peran Kejaksaan Dalam Menanggulangi Tindak Pidana Penyelundupan

Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana tanggung jawab hukum dalam tindak pidana penyelundupan dan bagaimana peran kejaksaan sebagai penyidik tindak pidana khusus dalam menanggulangi kejahatan penyelundupan. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif, maka dapat disimpulkan: 1. Pertanggungjawaban pidana atau kesalahan menurut hukum pidana adalah kemampuan bertanggung jawab atau dapat dipertanggung jawabkan dari si pembuat, adanya perbuatan melanggar hukum yaitu sikap psikis si pelaku yang berhubungan dengan kelakuannya, ayitu sengaja atau tanpa sengaja atau sikap kurang hati-hati, tidak ada alasan pembenar atau alasan yang menghapuskan pertanggungjawaban pidana si pembuat. 2. Peran Kejaksaan dalam upaya penanggulangan Tindak Pidana Penyelundupan dapat dilihat di dalam keputusan presiden (Kepres) No. 73 Tahun 1967 tentang pemberian kewenangan Jaksa Agung sebagai Ketua Tim dibantu dan bekerjasama dengan para menteri yang terkait, Panglima AD, Kepolisian, dan lain-lain. Sebagai tindak lanjut dari Kepres tersebut di atas maka Jaksa Agung lewat Kepres Nomor Kep-052/DA/6/1967 tanggal 13 Juni 1967 telah membentuk Tim Penyidik dan Penuntutan Perkara Penyelundupan (TP4), yang terdiri dari Pusat (TP4), Daerah Sub TP4, dan tugas utama melakukan koordinasi, pengendalian pengawasan, penahanan penuntutan demi perkara penyelundupan baik yang dilakukan oleh Sipil maupun anggota ABRI dan Kepolisian RI

Peningkatan Sosial Melalui Metode Bermain Peran Pada Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun Di Tk

This research is motivated social development of children is still low as the children can not cooperate completing tasks / jobs, children may not be able to help each other to friends who are having trouble, the child can not obey the rules in a game. The purpose of this research is to improve the social emotional development through methods play a role in children aged 5-6 years in kindergarten Taman Kanak-Kanak Negeri 01 Matan Hilir Selatan Ketapang. This study used a descriptive method because the researcher intends to reveal all the findings as it is. Based on the research that has been done that the increase in social development of the child is developing very well. As for specifically: 1) Planning learning that teachers include: makes RKH according to the theme and sub-theme, selecting play materials appropriate to the theme and sub-theme, determine instructional methods, determining learning outcomes. 2) Implementation of the learning that teachers do the following: a) Implement environmental footing, b) Implement a foothold before the play, c) Implement footing while playing: collaborated complete tasks / work in, helping each other to friends who are having trouble, obey the rules in a game, d) Implement a foothold after the play. 3) Improvement of social emotional development in children aged 5-6 years are: a) Children in collaboration completing the task / job, b) Children helping each other to friends who are having trouble, c) Children obey the rules in a game
