Findings indicate "...an individual household’s involvement with the village government organizations tends to increase their own reports of positive voice, participation, and information. In contrast, the data suggest a negative spillover on other households. There is a strong 'chilling' effect of one household’s participation in village government organizations on the voice, participation, and information of other households in the same village."

The paper finds that co-ordination between different levels of government is still lacking, lacking a clear division of tasks between central, provincial and district governments. Indonesia’s move to a more market-based forestry governance system is currently impeded by the lack of a sound and secure property and tenure rights system, exacerbated by legal uncertainties, and weak monitoring and enforcement capacities on the local level.

It provides a guide to the major political parties, their historical and social origins and their place in the spectrum of ideological, religious and regional divisions. The paper concludes that, despite the recent arrival of democratic politics in Indonesia, political parties have strong social roots and clearly defined electoral constituencies. But the parties remain elitist and centralised organisations and, to date, they have failed to use their connections in society to develop policy platforms that would articulate the interests and demands of their supporters."

Since most countries in Asia are very apprehensive with their culture and tradition, some says that thinking radically and independently toward their highly respectable traditions is offensive. However, the author believes that thinking critically and independently is not a contradiction to Asian’s traditions and cultures.

Libraries Buddhist Philosophy Therav-ada Buddhism It is pointed out that, of all major religions of the world, Buddhism is probably the most philosophical one. Thevarada is considered a doctrine of rationalism which parallels modern scientific and humanistic thoughts. Buddhism teaches that the causes of suffering are craving, malice and delusion. Suffering will disappear if these are eradicated. In contrast, some Indian and European scholars do not believe Thevarada to be a doctrine of rationalism. They attribute the rationalist view to a 19-century invention, and say that there is no justification for it in the Buddhist Canon. [United States: Military Advantage Inc.

Activities were carried out in Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam which related to illicitly cultivated opium for the production of synthetic drugs. The project provided specialized training in drug control for judiciary, prosecutors and investigators from six countries. Most had never been before received such training in this area of law. The project was instrumental in guiding and supporting law development in several countries, at a time where current legislation (missing or incomplete) made a need for improvements imminent. A mechanism was established for reviewing the process of improving mutual legal assistance among the six countries. Before the project, no such forum existed. The meetings held bon several occasions and the intensive Fellowship Programmes allowed cultivation of new ties between people, which will facilitate the carrying out of mutual legal assistance in the subregion.

The aim was to explore what 10-11 year old primary school children think about disabilities in an Inclusive Education class, i.e. a class with non-disabled children and children with disabilities (CwD). Sixteen children, including four CwD, were interviewed in a semi structured way. The children mentioned physical disabilities more often than "mental" or "learning" disabilities even though three of the CwD had those kinds of disabilities. More than half samples seem to think about war-related causes of disabilities. Many interviewees also mentioned that they feel sympathy for and want to help persons with disabilities. One-fourth of the children seem to think of disabilities as a deviation. Sweden: Linköpings högskola.

Libraries The “Forgiveness’ factor in the Treatment of Vietnamese Veterans Brinson, Thomas Post-traumatic stress disorder Mental health Many Vietnamese veterans suffer from clinical and sub-clinical post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), despite increasingly focused treatment during the past couple of decades. New models of therapeutic intervention are needed. The author reviews relevant literature concerning forgiveness and the incorporation of ritual and ceremony. He portrays a novel, theoretically consistent intervention, consisting of a comprehensive psychotherapeutic peer group program. Veterans are offered opportunities to practice forgiveness, to practice in reconciliation through volunteer human service activities, and to experience compassion for self and “enemy” through participation in healing rituals and ceremonies. He proposed that PTSD program could perhaps adopt similar strategies to foster forgiveness and reconciliation among veterans suffering from PTSD. La Frontera Center, Inc.

Influenza A (H5N1) infection, characterized by fever, respiratory symptoms, and lymphopenia, carries a high risk of death. Although in all 10 cases the infection appears to have been acquired directly from infected poultry, the potential exists for genetic reassortment with human influenzaviruses and the evolution of human-to-human transmission. Containment of influenza A (H5N1) in poultry throughout Asia is therefore urgently required.
