  • Poverty is often referred to as a phenomenon of scarcity, inadequacy or instability of income. Besides, poverty can also cause health issues, exacerbate social problems, leading to isolation, discrimination and loss of a bright future. Lately, the role of zakat (the compulsory giving of a set proportion of one's wealth to charity) as a useful tool in combating poverty has been highlighted since zakat collected will be distributed specifically to the poor and needy groups. This paper seeks to assess the role of zakat in combating poverty among recipients. A questionnaire was distributed to 300 participants selected from the list of recipients who received assistance from Zakat institutions. A cluster random sampling has been utilized to select sampling from the target population. The data were analyzed using SPSS to provide descriptive analysis. Past evidence has shown how zakat has able to transform the recipient into a payer especially through education or business assistance. Proper management of zakat institution is seen as a powerful mechanism to facilitate community development and to strengthen the Muslim economy. Results show the importance of zakat in the effort to eradicate poverty and further able to improve the asnaf's quality of life.

  • This paper aims to analyze factors influencing earnings of workers in Vietnam using provincial-level data from 2016 to 2018. We show the important determinants of earnings of workers of more than 15 years old including working hour, labor force, life expectancy, education, regulation measured by Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) and especially Industry 4.0, our major depart from literature proxies by government expenditure on science and technology, number of phone lines, and number of internet users. Working hours are a typical measurement of quantity of labor supplied. Labor force represents market size from the supply side. Life expectancy measures the health of laborers, a physical quality measure of workers. PCI stands for institutional status of the locality. Two most important factors of our interest are education, representing qualification of workers, and Industry 4.0, reflecting the new working environment of workers. By estimating a robust standard error fixed-effect model, we have evidence that all factors are significant in explaining earnings of Vietnamese workers. Education and IR4.0 play an important role in earnings of workers of Vietnam. Results also provide an estimation of Vietnam's labor supply in the context of Industry 4.0. In addition, findings contribute to explain the income discrepancy among Vietnamese provinces.

  • This study aims to examine the relationship between certain dimensions of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) with market performance, measured by Tobin's Q, on companies within various industries in Indonesia. This study disaggregates CSR into 7 dimensions: environment, energy, occupational safety and health, employee, product, community, and general. Samples consisted of 385 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2007-2014. OLS analysis shows that CSR contributes greatly to the formation of market performance of consumer goods, agriculture, and miscellaneous industries. The dimensions of CSR contribute differently to the formation of Q ratios in different industries. We also found that there are differences in the speed of effect of several dimensions of CSR on the formation of market performance; some CSR dimensions give immediate effect while others are lagged.

  • 본 연구는 $SO_2$ 배출이 건강피해에 미치는 영향을 다양한 건강반응함수를 활용하여 분석하고, 배출총량제(cap)와 배출권거래제 하에서 $SO_2$의 배출효과를 살펴보았다. 보건관련 연구에 부합되는 건강반응함수의 기울기와 곡률을 이용하여 분석한 결과 배출총량제에서의 피해가 상대적으로 약 26백만 달러~452백만 달러 낮은 것으로 확인되었다. 배출권거래제 대비 배출총량제의 상대적 편익은 건강반응함수의 곡률에 따라 증가하나 기울기와는 반비례하는 것으로 나타났다. 여러 종류의 건강반응함수를 고려한다 하더라도 배출총량제가 배출권거래제보다 피해 측면에서 우월한 것으로 보인다. 한계피해함수의 기울기가 실제보다 더 가파를 때 총 피해 관련 배출권거래제의 상대적 편익이 커지게 된다. 추가적으로 배출저감비용, 소비자 및 생산자 잉여 등을 고려할 때 배출총량제가 약 37억~41억 달러 정도 후생효과가 더욱 높은 것으로 나타났다.
