Kenapa industrialisasi kita harus berorientasi ekspor
In India, most manufacturing workers are in small firms partly because most customers can only afford cheap, low-quality goods that small workshops make efficiently. voxdev.org/topic/macroeco…

My best birthday wishes to Professor Amartya Sen, as he turns 93 today, November 3. He has been a great influence in modern thinking in economics and in philosophy.
Here is a T-shirt with his paper that I bought in America many years ago.

Kok jadi begini negara kita. Kok begini liar politik kita. Sepertinya untuk mendapatkan kekuasaan (political power) cara apapun dibenarkan. Tidak peduli baik atau buruk. Bermoral atau tidak bermoral. Saya khawatir kalau akhirnya rakyat merasa takut dan tidak tenteram hidup di negaranya sendiri.
Sebagai warga bangsa yang sangat mencintai negeri ini, seperti juga warga negara Indonesia yang lain, saya bermohon kepada Presiden Prabowo untuk menghidupkan kembali politik yang berkeadaban. Ini panggilan sejarah. Ini amanah rakyat. Semoga Tuhan memberikan kekuatan dan tuntunan kepada Pak Prabowo untuk menjalankan misi mulia ini.

À mesure que les revenus augmentent, les attentes ont souvent tendance à dépasser les possibilités réelles, alimentant des frustrations que les indicateurs économiques traditionnels peinent à saisir, écrit Muhamad Chatib Basri dans F&D. imf.org/fr/publication…

🇿🇼Congratulations to the Government of Zimbabwe. A major milestone for pandemic preparedness and health security.
The Pandemic Fund’s grant of over US$14 million has helped mobilize US$49 million in partner co-financing and nearly US$92 million in government co-investment.
Congratulations to the Government of Zimbabwe, the @AfDB_Group, @FAO, @UNICEF and all partners on this achievement.
This is the power of partnership—turning national leadership and strategic investment into stronger, more resilient health systems that can prevent, detect and respond to health threats, protecting lives in Zimbabwe and beyond.

@MoHCCZim Minister Hon. Dr. Douglas Mombeshora, today officially launched two key Pandemic Fund grants which, combined with partner support and national co-funding, unlock US$157.62 million to strengthen the nation’s epidemic prevention, detection and response capabilities.
The includes US$16.82 million in direct Pandemic Fund support, comprising a US$14.33 million single-country grant for Zimbabwe and a US$2.49 million share of a multi-country grant supporting seven other nations in the Southern Region. Crucially, the single-country grant has unlocked an additional US$49.00 million in co-financing from development partners, alongside US$91.80 million in domestic resources committed by the Government.
In his keynote address, Dr. Mombeshora emphasized that health security is essential to sustained economic growth, stressing that, because disease outbreaks disrupt livelihoods, trade, education and essential public services, health preparedness must be treated as a crucial national development imperative. #HealthForAll

Here’s a simple lesson from game theory.
If you do the opposite of what your enemy tells you to do, you will be playing into the hands of your enemy.
