<div>The COVID-19 outbreak has had a catastrophic effect on the tourism sector and poverty alleviation efforts. This is especially the case, given the crucial role the tourism sector plays in poverty alleviation and the generation of foreign exchange earnings. This study investigates the moderating influence of extreme poverty on the underlying link between the size of the tourism industry and COVID-19 Economic Stimulus Packages (ESPs) while accounting for the influence of external debt. The results show that tourism-dependent economies with a larger share of individuals living in extreme poverty introduced larger ESPs to cushion the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak. In addition, economies with larger external debt have less fiscal and monetary leeway to alleviate the negative effects of the COVID-19 outbreak.</div>

<div>BackgroundSporadic outbreaks of COVID-19 remain a threat to public healthcare, especially if vaccination levels do not improve. As Malaysia begins its transition into the endemic phase, it is essential to identify the key determinants of COVID-19 vaccination intention amongst the pockets of the population who are still hesitant. Therefore, focusing on a sample of individuals who did not register for the COVID-19 vaccination, the current study integrated two widely used frameworks in the public health domain—the health belief model (HBM) and the theory of reasoned action (TRA)—to examine the inter-relationships of the predictors of vaccination intention amongst these individuals.MethodologyPrimary data from 117 respondents who did not register for the COVID-19 vaccination were collected using self-administered questionnaires to capture predictors of vaccination intention amongst individuals in a Malaysian context. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique was used to analyze the data.ResultsSubjective norms and attitude play key mediating roles between the HBM factors and vaccination intention amongst the unregistered respondents. In particular, subjective norms mediate the relationship between cues to action and vaccination intention, highlighting the significance of important others to influence unregistered individuals who are already exposed to information from mass media and interpersonal discussions regarding vaccines. Trust, perceived susceptibility, and perceived benefits indirectly influence vaccination intention through attitude, indicating that one’s attitude is vital in promoting behavioral change.ConclusionThis study showed that the behavioral factors could help understand the reasons for vaccine refusal or acceptance, and shape and improve health interventions, particularly among the vaccine-hesitant group in a developing country. Therefore, policymakers and key stakeholders can develop effective strategies or interventions to encourage vaccination amongst the unvaccinated for future health pandemics by targeting subjective norms and attitude.</div>

<div>Previous studies reveal the limited effectiveness of benefit-based and hedonic-based product recommendations provided by online recommenders, and recommender anthropomorphism is considered a remedy. This paper aims to investigate the positive effect of anthropomorphism by involving the online recommender’s perceived ability to learn as a mediator. Based on schema congruity theory, perceived benefit/hedonic appeals appropriateness is considered a dependent variable. In Study 1, subtle anthropomorphic cues within an online recommender had a positive effect on perceived benefit-appeals appropriateness through the perceived ability to learn. Study 2 demonstrated the positive relationship between perceived anthropomorphism and perceived hedonic-appeal appropriateness, with the mediating role of the perceived ability to learn. The results advance the knowledge about consumer response to online recommenders from the perspective of anthropomorphism and schema congruity theory. Marketers and consumer organizations are advised on how to deal with online recommender systems providing benefit and hedonic appeals.</div>

<div>Economic welfare is essential in the modern economy since it directly reflects the standard of living, distribution of resources, and general social satisfaction, which influences individual and social well-being. This study aims to explore the relationship between national income accounting different attributes and the economic welfare in Pakistan. However, this study used data from 1950 to 2022, and data was downloaded from the World Bank data portal. Regression analysis is used to investigate the relationship between them and is very effective in measuring the relationship between endogenous and exogenous variables. Moreover, generalized methods of movement (GMM) are used as the robustness of the regression. Our results show that foreign direct investment outflow, Gross domestic product growth rate, GDP per capita, higher Interest, market capitalization, and population growth have a significant negative on the unemployment rate, indicating the rise in these factors leads to a decrease in the employment rate in Pakistan. Trade and savings have a significant positive impact on the unemployment rate, indicating the rise in these factors leads to an increase in the unemployment rate for various reasons. Moreover, all the factors of national income accounting have a significant positive relationship with life expectancy, indicating that an increase in these factors leads to an increase in economic welfare and life expectancy due to better health facilities, many resources, and correct economic policies. However, foreign direct investment, inflation rate, lending interest rate, and population growth have significant positive effects on age dependency, indicating these factors increase the age dependency. Moreover, GDP growth and GDP per capita negatively impact age dependency. Similarly, all the national income accounting factors have a significant negative relationship with legal rights that leads to decreased legal rights. Moreover, due to better health facilities and health planning, there is a negative significant relationship between national income accounting attributes and motility rate among children. Our study advocated the implications for the policymakers and the government to make policies for the welfare and increase the social factors.</div>

<div> Background/Aims In 2014, Malaysia conducted National Eye Survey II (NES II) using the World Health Organization (WHO)-recommended Rapid Assessment of Avoidable Blindness (RAAB) methodology across six administrative regions. The survey revealed significant discrepancies in key national eye care indicators, including prevalence of blindness, cataract surgery outcome, and effective Cataract Surgical Coverage (eCSC). In response, the Ministry of Health (MOH) launched the Klinik Katarak Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KK-KKM) initiative, which includes mobile cataract surgical services to improve equitable access in the underserved areas in Sarawak and the Eastern Region. Despite endorsement and consistent operational funds, variations in cataract surgery uptake between regions persisted. We postulate that this disparity could be due to community-related factors and their interactions. In 2023, follow-up surveys were conducted in both regions to compare outcomes over time. The eligible subjects were consecutively recruited for a questionnaire interview. This study aims to identify the factors influencing cataract surgery uptake in Malaysia, specifically in Sarawak and Eastern Region. Methods A cross-sectional survey was carried out in 2023 using RAAB methodology, targeting individuals aged 50 years and above. Subjects with operable cataract with Pinhole Visual Acuity worse than 6/18, or a history of cataract surgery, were interviewed using the validated 22-item CatSurg-U questionnaire focused on Knowledge, Perception, Attitude and Practice. A total of 1,119 respondents (Sarawak: 408; Eastern 711) were recruited from 203 clusters. Binary logistic regression was used to identify demographic, socioeconomic and other predictors associated with non-uptake of cataract surgery. Results The identified factors that influenced individuals with unilateral operable cataracts to have “no surgery” in Sarawak included their “perception to own sight” [AOR: 0.67, 95% CI (0.53, 0.84) P = 0.001] and “attitude towards treatment” [AOR:1.47, 95% CI (1.17, 1.85) P = 0.001]. Meanwhile, in the Eastern region, the factors were “perception to own sight” [AOR: 0.80, 95% CI (0.69, 0.92) P = 0.002], “attitude towards treatment” [AOR:1.15, 95% CI (1.03, 1.29) P = 0.016], and “practice towards information” [AOR: 1.23, 95% CI (1.01, 1.50) P = 0.042]. For subjects with bilateral operable cataract in Sarawak, the factors that influenced them to have “no surgery” were “knowledge on surgery” [AOR: 0.35, 95% CI (0.25, 0.50) P < 0.001], “perception to own sight” [AOR: 1.48, 95% CI (1.15, 1.89) P = 0.002], ethnicity (Chinese compared to Malays) [AOR: 0.19, 95% CI (0.04, 0.88) P = 0.033] and education level (primary school compared to secondary school or above) [AOR: 5.54, 95% CI (1.49, 20.69) P = 0.011]. Additionally, for the Eastern region, the factors identified were “knowledge on surgery” [AOR: 0.35, 95% CI (0.26, 0.48) P < 0.001] and “practice on surgery” [AOR: 0.72, 95% CI (0.62, 0.84) P < 0.001]. Conclusion “Perception to own sight”, “attitude towards treatment”, and “knowledge on surgery” were key factors in both regions. Additional barriers in Sarawak include ethnicity and education levels, while in the Eastern Region, “practice towards information” and “practice on surgery” were key factors. Addressing these factors through targeted strategies such as enhancement of mobile outreach programs, public education, and service capacity expansion is essential. Collaborative efforts are needed to improve eye care delivery and ensure equitable access nationwide. </div>

<div>The market for the halal food and beverage industry sector has experienced rapid growth in recent years, which indicate excellent investment opportunities. This paper examine the effect of Technical Efficiency (TE) on firm value in 5 selected influential countries in halal food and beverage sector based on Global Islamic Economy Report 2020. Two steps estimation was used to run the data, using the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) model to determine the company’s TE and panel data to test the effect of TE through firm value. The results show that Indonesia has the highest score for TE (62%), followed by Pakistan (59%), South Africa (57%), Malaysia (55%), and Singapore (52%), which means, in general, there is inefficiency in allocating resources over 38% up to 48% and needs to be improved by halal food and beverage companies in. Regarding panel data, all countries sample except Pakistan highlight that TE significantly affect company value. It indicates that the crucial part of managing efficiency can be a sign in stock market performance. The result shows that company managers should set efficiency strategies to their business process for creating sustainability and increase their value in the capital market. As for investors, this TE can be used as an indicator before choosing company stocks; if the company is efficient, then it is worthy of being one of the portfolio assets. Form the government side, the finding can help them to set appropriate policy setting to boost halal food and beverages industry such as giving subsidy or incentive to increase the efficiency ability of halal food and beverage companies and identify the industry’s strength by comparing the result of TE between 5 countries.</div>

<div>Developing countries are deprived of resources, and their economies are dwindling. Energy shortfall is one of the leading issues in developing countries that not only shatter economies but is the leading cause of depletion of natural resources and environmental pollution. There is an urgent need to shift to renewable energy sources to save economies and natural resources and to save our ecological system. Aiming for this, we have collected a cross-sectional data set to study the household intentions of shifting to wind energy and analysed the moderated mediation interactions of the variable to better understand socio-economic and personal factors. 840 responses were analysed using smart-PLS 4.0; results revealed that cost value and social influence directly relate to renewable energy adoption. Environmental knowledge directly influences attitude towards the environment, and health consciousness influences perceived behavioural control. Results also revealed that social influence strengthens the indirect relationship between awareness of renewable energy and its adoption, while it weakens the indirect relationship between health consciousness and renewable energy adoption.</div>
