This article describes a previously undescribed script from Laos. The script was used by a political leader as part of his resistance effort against the colonial French, used to symbolize his power more than to communicate factual content. The script is unique in the way it has separate symbols for syllable onsets and codas.

This study aimed to assess of environment and health risk perceptions and factors its associated ofsalt pot workers at Kud-Rea-Khom Sub-District, Wanonniwat District, Sakon Nakhon province. The data werecollected using questionnaire with 104 salt pot worker during June 2011 to April 2012. The analyzed and interpreted of data using descriptive and Inferential statistics. The results showed that was conducted as a wholeby salt pot workers perceived on likelihood of hazards, cause and environmental and health impact as low levelas 47.1 %, 53.8%, 49.1 % respectively. The factors that were correlated with perception of hazard was educationlevel (P=0.033). The cause of impacts was related to main occupation (P = 0.005) and worker training experienceon work safety (P=0.029). The impact of environment and health was correlated with education (P = 0.006) andworking period (P=0.039). The result of this study showed that the salt pot workers perceived on environmentaland health risk at low level. Therefore, the government organizations should initiate preventive measures andbuild awareness for workers in order to cope with environmental and health impact and stimulus perception andprovide sufficient protect to the environment and health impacts.
This study seeks to build a better understanding of the poverty alleviation progress in Nepal and to provide an affordable set of strategic options to the government of Nepal for reducing poverty. Despite significant improvements in economic and social indicators over the past four decades, the study shows that poverty is still widespread in Nepal. The study shows that there is significant progress in poverty alleviation in Nepal. The study indicates that poverty incidence has increased over the past 3 decades in Nepal, a period in which Nepal received substantial development assistance. Poverty is the main factor of declining the quality of living standard of Nepalese people. The objective of the government is to attain prosperity of people. The present study attempts to observe the effectiveness of poverty alleviation trends of Nepal on the basis of different plans. Furthermore, my findings emphasize on the effective measures of poverty alleviation. My argument is that Nepal needs to pay more attention for generating employment opportunities of the nation by increasing investment and modernization in agriculture.

This study aims to analyze the reliability of Nepal's industrial policies, focusing on the effects of macroeconomic variables on implementation and outcomes. This paper assesses Nepal's industrial policies, emphasizing the need for improvements, export promotion, and human capital development while recognizing the importance of strategic planning and context-specific approaches for economic growth, stability, and development. The analytical and descriptive approaches have been applied to analyze the data by collecting secondary data sources that include official publications, which encompass 47 time series variables from 1974 to 2020. The findings provide mixed evidence for the economic impacts of liberalization, with exports and liberalization driving overall GDP growth. In contrast, other factors like economic openness, tourism, and their relationship with industrial GDP remain statistically insignificant. The paper indicates that remittances and investment have the most substantial impact on GDP, raising it by 1.86 and 1.21 units per unit increase, respectively. Exports have a moderate impact on industrial GDP (0.403 units). Export-oriented industries and tourism lack significant associations with either type of GDP. Liberalization significantly boosted both GDP and industrial GDP, with an increase of 179465.3 and 49595.62 units, respectively. Imports also jumped post-liberalization, driven by higher remittances as 1.215 units per unit increase. This study on industrial policies in developing economies, focusing on Nepal, adds valuable insights. The findings can ensure policymaking, boost economic growth, and strengthen Nepal's industrial sector.
The capacity of foreign trade to substantially raise GDP via increased exports, heightened competition, and enhanced efficiency holds the key to bolstering economic growth and prosperity. Recognizing this transformation underscores the importance of shaping Nepal's economic policies and development strategies for achieving lasting sustainable growth. The objective of this study is to investigate how trade openness has affected Nepal's economic growth, given its importance in the nation's overall development. By analyzing the correlation between trade openness and economic expansion, policymakers and researchers can uncover the role of international trade in driving Nepal's economic advancement. The research methodology involves constructing a regression model using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag bound test, with variables analyzed in growth form and subjected to the Augmented Dickey-Fuller and residual tests. The study's results indicate a strong positive relationship between trade openness and economic growth in Nepal from 1975 to 2020, with a long-term equilibrium observed. Short-term deviations from equilibrium are quickly corrected at 38.23% annually, highlighting the importance of balanced export and import growth for economic development. The study concludes that trade openness drives Nepal's economic growth for sustainable development and environmental protection. It offers valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders to enhance economic growth and overall development of the country.
Da'wah regarding Islamic values needs to be done in the community. Including, preaching about the Islamic values contained in the views that are being discussed in the public sphere, including about Human Rights (HAM). Democratic governance requires the existence of good governance, human rights and democracy. Obtaining the standards of democratic governance is needed by Indonesia to be internationally accepted. Nonetheless, Indonesia's record on human rights leads to the understanding that this country has to pay highly attention on human rights. Five basic rights in maqashid sharia (kulliyatul khoms) as important basic ideas to be elaborated into values that are included in the effort to realize good governance. Keywords: Da'wah, good governance, human rights, kulliyatul khoms

Aims Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is linked to hyperactivity of brain stress systems, leading to withdrawal states which drive relapse. AUD differs among the sexes, as men are more likely to have AUD than women, but women progress from casual use to binge and heavy alcohol use more quickly and are more likely to relapse into repetitive episodes of heavy drinking. In alcohol dependence animal models of AUD, the central amygdala (CeA) functions as a hub of stress and anxiety processing and gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic signaling within the CeA is involved in dependence-induced increases in alcohol consumption. We have shown dysregulation of CeA GABAergic synaptic signaling in alcohol dependence animal models, but previous studies have exclusively used males.
Methods Here, we used whole-cell patch clamp electrophysiology to examine basal CeA GABAergic spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSC) and the effects of acute alcohol in both naïve and alcohol dependent rats of both sexes.
Results We found that sIPSC kinetics differ between females and males, as well as between naïve and alcohol-dependent animals, with naïve females having the fastest current kinetics. Additionally, we find differences in baseline current kinetics across estrous cycle stages. In contrast to the increase in sIPSC frequency routinely found in males, acute alcohol (11–88 mM) had no effect on sIPSCs in naïve females, however the highest concentration of alcohol increased sIPSC frequency in dependent females.
Conclusion These results provide important insight into sex differences in CeA neuronal function and dysregulation with alcohol dependence and highlight the need for sex-specific considerations in the development of effective AUD treatment.
