Abstract:
SUMMARYIn recent years, a malaria infection of humans in South East Asia, originally diagnosed as a known human-infecting species,Plasmodium malariae, has been identified as a simian parasite,Plasmodium knowlesi.This species had been subject to considerable investigation in monkeys since the 1930s. With the development of continuous culture of the erythrocytic stages of the human malarial parasite,Plasmodium falciparumin 1976, the emphasis in research shifted away from knowlesi. However, its importance as a human pathogen has provoked a renewed interest inP. knowlesi, not least because it too can be maintained in continuous culture and thus provides an experimental model. In fact, this parasite species has a long history in malaria research, and the purpose of this chapter is to outline approximately the first 50 years of this history.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT. Despite recent success in reducing the regional incidence of Plasmodium falciparum malaria, cases of zoonotic malaria are on the rise in Southeast Asia. The Cambodian National Malaria Surveillance Program has previously relied on rapid diagnostic tests and blood smear microscopy with confirmatory polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing in a subset of cases to further distinguish P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. ovale, and P. vivax species. Here, metagenomic next-generation sequencing identified P. knowlesi mono-infection in six Cambodian patients initially diagnosed with P. malariae by blood smear microscopy in February–May 2020. These findings of recent human infections with P. knowlesi in Cambodia led to the incorporation of P. knowlesi–specific PCR diagnostics to national malaria surveillance efforts.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT. Gaining an in-depth understanding of malaria transmission requires integrated, multifaceted research approaches. The Asia-Pacific International Center of Excellence in Malaria Research (ICEMR) is applying specifically developed molecular and immunological assays, in-depth entomological assessments, and advanced statistical and mathematical modeling approaches to a rich series of longitudinal cohort and cross-sectional studies in Papua New Guinea and Cambodia. This is revealing both the essential contribution of forest-based transmission and the particular challenges posed by Plasmodium vivax to malaria elimination in Cambodia. In Papua New Guinea, these studies document the complex host–vector–parasite interactions that are underlying both the stunning reductions in malaria burden from 2006 to 2014 and the significant resurgence in transmission in 2016 to 2018. Here we describe the novel analytical, surveillance, molecular, and immunological tools that are being applied in our ongoing Asia-Pacific ICEMR research program.

Abstract:
In rural areas of South and Southeast Asia malaria is declining but febrile illnesses still account for substantial morbidity and mortality. Village health workers (VHWs) are often the first point of contact with the formal health system, and for patients with febrile illnesses they can provide early diagnosis and treatment of malaria. However, for the majority of febrile patients, VHWs lack the training, support and resources to provide further care. Consequently, treatable bacterial illnesses are missed, antibiotics are overused and poorly targeted, and patient attendance wanes along with declining malaria. This Open Letter announces the start of a new initiative, the Rural Febrile Illness (RFI) project, the first in a series of projects to be implemented as part of the South and Southeast Asian Community-based Trials Network (SEACTN) research programme. This multi-country, multi-site project will begin in Bangladesh, Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Myanmar and will define the epidemiological baseline of febrile illness in five remote and underserved areas of Asia where malaria endemicity is declining and access to health services is limited. The RFI project aims to determine the incidence, causes and outcomes of febrile illness; understand the opportunities, barriers and appetite for adjustment of the role of VHWs to include management of non-malarial febrile illnesses; and establish a network of community healthcare providers and facilities capable of implementing interventions designed to triage, diagnose and treat patients presenting with febrile illnesses within these communities in the future.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT. The Malaria Evolution in South Asia (MESA) International Center for Excellence in Malaria Research (ICEMR) was established by the US National Institutes of Health (US NIH) as one of 10 malaria research centers in endemic countries. In 10 years of hospital-based and field-based work in India, the MESA-ICEMR has documented the changing epidemiology and transmission of malaria in four different parts of India. Malaria Evolution in South Asia-ICEMR activities, in collaboration with Indian partners, are carried out in the broad thematic areas of malaria case surveillance, vector biology and transmission, antimalarial resistance, pathogenesis, and host response. The program integrates insights from surveillance and field studies with novel basic science studies. This is a two-pronged approach determining the biology behind the disease patterns seen in the field, and generating new relevant biological questions about malaria to be tested in the field. Malaria Evolution in South Asia-ICEMR activities inform local and international stakeholders on the current status of malaria transmission in select parts of South Asia including updates on regional vectors of transmission of local parasites. The community surveys and new laboratory tools help monitor ongoing efforts to control and eliminate malaria in key regions of South Asia including the state of evolving antimalarial resistance in different parts of India, new host biomarkers of recent infection, and molecular markers of pathogenesis from uncomplicated and severe malaria.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Plasmodium malariae, the parasite responsible for quartan malaria, is transmitted in most areas of malaria endemicity and is associated with significant morbidity. The sequence of the gene coding for the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) was obtained from field isolates of P. malariae and from the closely related simian parasite Plasmodium brasilianum. The two sequences were nearly 100% homologous, adding weight to the notion that they represent genetically distinct lines of the same species. A survey of polymorphisms of the dhfr sequences in 35 isolates of P. malariae collected from five countries in Asia and Africa revealed a low number of nonsynonymous mutations in five codons. In five of the isolates collected from southeast Asia, a nonsynonymous mutation was found at one of the three positions known to be associated with antifolate resistance in other Plasmodium species. Five isolates with the wild-type DHFR could be assayed for drug susceptibility in vitro and were found to be sensitive to pyrimethamine (mean 50% inhibitory concentration, 2.24 ng/ml [95% confidence interval, 0.4 to 3.1]).

Abstract:
There were only four species of Plasmodium that were thought to cause malaria in humans until a large number of human infections by Plasmodium knowlesi, a malaria parasite typically found in long-tailed and pig-tailed macaques, were reported in 2004 in Malaysian Borneo. Since then, cases of knowlesi malaria have been reported throughout South-east Asia and also in travellers returning from the region. This article describes the molecular, entomological and epidemiological data which indicate that P. knowlesi is an ancient parasite that is primarily zoonotic, and there are three highly divergent sub-populations. It also describes the detection methods for P. knowlesi, which is morphologicaly similar to P. malariae, and the clinical features and treatment of this malaria parasite that is potentially fatal.

Abstract:
Based on world malaria reports, the most malaria cases are in the African region, followed by the Eastern Mediterranean region and Southeast Asia region. Twenty-nine countries account for global malaria cases. In the Asia-Pacific region, the rate of malaria transmission is relatively low when compared to sub-Saharan Africa, but it is basically the same as the malaria problem in Africa because the harmful effects of malaria in various regions remain the same. The process of pregnancy can aggravate malaria cases; pregnant women suffering from malaria will affect the process of pregnancy and the fetus and baby born. This Scoping Review aims to synthesize research evidence and categorize research articles on the impact of malaria on pregnant women and their babies in Asia-Pacific countries. Literature search was carried out using the PRISMA flowchart guidelines which were applied to present the article search flow. The synthesis shows 11 articles obtained from the search process. This review raises 6 themes, namely: anemia, low birth weight, premature birth, malaria in infants, placental malaria, and primigravida. The impact of malaria in pregnancy that most often occurs in pregnant women is anemia, low birth weight, premature birth, placental malaria, and malaria in infants.

Abstract:
Malariakontrolle ist von Resistenzen gegen Malariamedikamente wie Chloroquin (CQ) und Artemisininderivaten (ART) bedroht. Hier untersuchten wir das Ausmaß dieser Resistenzen in Fünf Feldstudien in Nigeria, Ruanda und Südwestindien unter Beurteilung der Prävalenzen Arzneimittelresistenz-assoziierter Mutation der Plasmodium-Parasiten (P. falciparum: K13, dhps, dhfr, mdr1 und P. vivax: mdr1) z.T. in Korrelation mit klinischen Patientendaten und ex-vivo Überlebensraten (ÜLR) unter Zugabe von ART. K13 wurde in 360 zwischen 2010-2018 gesammelte ruandischen P. falciparum Isolaten genotypisiert. Erstmals fanden wir dort niedrige Frequenzen der mit ART-Resistenz assoziierten K13-Mutation. Jedoch lassen Mutation mit niedrigen ÜLR, sowie ein Isolat mit hohen ÜLR aber ohne K13-Mutation eines Patienten der die Infektion unter Therapie nicht eliminieren konnte, Fragen offen. Ca.100 indische P. falciparum und P. vivax Isolaten aus 2015 wurden auf Mutationen in P. falciparum Markern für die Resistenz gegen Sulfadoxin-Pyrimethamin (SP) (d.h. pfdhps/pfdhfr), Artesunat (AS) (d.h. K13) und Lumefantrin (d.h. pfmdr1) sowie P. vivax Marker für CQ-Resistenz (pvmdr1) untersucht. Der Großteil der Isolate zeigt Mutationen die SP-Resistenz hervorrufen, daher könnte die Effizienz der AS+SP-Therapie begrenzen sein. Außerdem eignet sich Lumefantrin nicht als alternatives Medikament auf Grund der beobachteten Dominanz des pfmdr1-Haplotyps „NFD“. Die Abwesenheit der pvmdr1-Mutation Y976F und erfolgreiche Behandlungen zeigen, die Wirksamkeit von CQ gegen vivax Malaria im Studiengebiet. Auch Isolate von nigerianischen Schwangeren mit asymptomatischer P. falciparum Infektion zeigten hohe Prävalenzen von pfdhfr/pfdhps Vier- und Fünffachmutanten darum ist die Wirksamkeit der präventiver Therapie Schwangerer mit SP in Nigeria ernsthaft gefährdet. Die Daten spiegeln die Häufigkeit der Resistenzen gegen Malariamittel in diesen Gebieten wieder mit großen Unterschieden zwischen Regionen und Medikamenten.
The spread of resistance to antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine (CQ) and artemisinins (ART) is a great threat to malaria control. Here, we investigated the extent of such resistance in Nigeria, Rwanda and south-western India. We assessed the prevalence of mutations in few Plasmodium parasites’ markers of resistance, namely P. falciparum genes K13 (ART), pfdhps/pfdhfr (sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine, SP) and pfmdr1 (lumefantrine) as well as P. vivax gene pvmdr1 (CQ) in 5 field studies conducted in 2010-2018, and partially correlated the results to patients’ clinical outcome. Few isolates from Rwanda, were also evaluated for their parasite ex vivo survival rates (SR) upon exposure to ART. We tracked ART resistance in Rwanda by genotyping K13 in 360 P. falciparum isolates from 2010-2018. We showed for the first time that K13 mutations associated with ART resistance are present here, thus in Africa, at a low frequency. However, mutations occurred in patients who recovered and/or had low SR. Of note, one patient with high SR but no K13 mutation was still parasitemic after ART treatment. Moreover, we assessed the presence of mutations in K13, pfdhps/pfdhfr, pfmdr1 and pvmdr1 in ca 100 P. falciparum and 100 P. vivax isolates from south-western India. Most of P. falciparum isolates carried pfdhfr/pfdhps mutations conferring SP resistance, menacing the efficacy of SP-ART treatment. Also, the high prevalence of pfmdr1 haplotype “NFD” advised against the introduction of lumefantrine. The low rates of P. vivax pvmdr1 Y976F and patients’ successful parasite clearance, indicated that CQ remains effective in the area. Finally, a high rate of pfdhfr/pfdhps quadruple and quintuple mutant was observed in Nigerian pregnant women with asymptomatic P. falciparum infection, hence the effectiveness of preventive treatment with SP in pregnancy might be threatened. The data reflected the abundance of antimalarials resistance in these areas with important differences between regions and drugs.

Abstract:
La définition des priorités en matière de santé, dans le contexte de la couverture sanitaire universelle, met l'accent sur trois valeurs : améliorer la santé de la population, garantir l'égalité d'accès aux services et la qualité de ceux-ci et éviter l'appauvrissement des usagers ou la sous-utilisation des services par ceux-ci en raison de dépenses non remboursables. L’efficience allocative peut être mesurée par rapport à l'une quelconque de ces valeurs, ou par rapport à l'ensemble, par différentes variantes de l'analyse coût-efficacité. Dans cette thèse, nous utilisons la « Generalized Cost-Effectiveness Analysis », une approche normalisée développée par le programme « Choosing Interventions that are Cost-Effective » de l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé, (WHO-CHOICE), qui peut être appliquée à toutes les interventions dans différents contextes. En utilisant cette approche, notre travail de thèse fournit une estimation quantitative de l'efficience allocative des ressources pour trois groupes de problèmes de santé : les maladies transmissibles, les maladies non transmissibles, les accidents de la circulation, en mettant l'accent sur deux régions économiquement et épidémiologiquement différentes : l'Afrique subsaharienne de l’Est et l'Asie du Sud-Est. Nos objectifs étant d’éclairer les débats sur les politiques de santé, d’améliorer le corpus mondial de connaissances sur le rapport coût-efficacité de différentes interventions en fournissant davantage d’informations sur l’efficience de l’allocation de ressources pour les trois groupes de problèmes de santé précités et de contribuer aux discussions sur l’élaboration des programmes de soins de santé universels
Priority setting in health, in the context of Universal Health Coverage, emphasizes three values: improving population health, ensuring equity in access to and quality of services and avoiding impoverishment or underutilization of services as a result of out-of-pocket expenditures. Allocative efficiency can be measured with respect to any one of these values, or with respect to all together by different variants of Cost-Effectiveness Analysis. In this thesis, we use the Generalized Cost-Effectiveness Analysis, a standardized approach developed by the World Health Organization’s programme, ‘Choosing Interventions that are Cost-Effective’ (WHO-CHOICE) that can be applied to all interventions in different settings. This thesis provides a quantitative assessment of allocative efficiency within three health categories: communicable diseases, noncommunicable diseases, and road traffic injuries, focusing on two economically and epidemiologically diverse regions: Eastern sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Our objectives are to inform health policy debates, improve the world’s body of knowledge on the cost-effectiveness of different interventions by providing more information on the allocative efficiency in those three disease groups and contribute to discussions on Universal Health Care packages

Abstract:
Anopheles stephensi is a potent vector of malaria throughout the Indian subcontinent and Middle East. An. stephensi is emerging as a model for molecular and genetic studies of mosquito-parasite interactions. Here we conducted a series of genomic and transcriptomic studies to improve the understanding of the biology of Anopheles stephensi and mosquito in general. First we reported the genome sequence and annotation of the Indian strain of the type form of An. stephensi. The 221 Mb genome assembly was produced using a combination of 454, Illumina, and PacBio sequencing. This hybrid assembly method was significantly better than assemblies generated from a single data source. A total of 11,789 protein-encoding genes were annotated using a combination of homology and de novo prediction. Secondly, we demonstrated the presence of complete dosage compensation in An. stephensi by determining that autosomal and X-linked genes have very similar levels of expression in both males and females. The uniformity of average expression levels of autosomal and X-linked genes remained when An. stephensi gene expression was normalized by that of their Ae. aegypti orthologs, strengthening the conclusion of complete dosage compensation in Anopheles. Lastly, we investigated trans-splicing events in Anopheles stephensi. We identified six trans-splicing events and all the trans-splicing sites are conserved and present in Ae. aegypti. The proteins encoded by the trans-spliced mRNAs are also highly conserved and their orthologs are co-linearly transcribed in out-groups of family Culicidae. This finding indicates the need to preserve the intact mRNA and protein function of the broken-up genes by trans-splicing during evolution. In summary, we presented the first genome assembly of Anopheles stephensi and studied two interesting evolution events" dosage compensation and trans-splicing - via transcriptomic analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Southeast Asia is one of the leading regions globally in terms of planned gas developments in the next decade. We estimate sour gas contamination in Southeast Asian gas discoveries is one of the major challenges delaying over 10 billion barrels of oil equivalent gas resources from coming online. These developments are planned in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, requiring around $20 billion of investments, and could potentially make a significant contribution to regional production post-2030. But the fields contain high levels of sour gas, which makes development challenging and costly. Sour gas refers to natural gas that contains significant amounts of acidic gases such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide (CO2). Some industry majors are moving forward with exploration and development - albeit at a slow pace. Off Malaysia, work on Petronas’ Kasawari, Shell's Rosmari-Marjoram and PTTEP's Lang Lebah fields have been lined up, while Indonesia has witnessed similar slow progress on similar projects operated by IOCs and the government is also hoping the potential of its Natuna D-Alpha field will attract investors. However, as domestic gas demand in the countries increases and output drops, efforts must be made to overcome the complex geology and associated challenges. In fact, globally SE Asia & NW Australia are one of the largest regions with concentrations of sour gas. The paper intends to highlight Southeast Asia's role in planned gas developments globally and the significance of these developments in regional production. We deep dive into the planned developments risked by the sour gas contamination which makes up over 40% of the gas resources planned for development in Southeast Asia by 2030.

"Competitive Evaluation of Malaysia Enhanced Profitability Terms with Southeast Asia Fiscal Terms." In International Petroleum Technology Conference. IPTC, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.2523/iptc-22162-ms.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Malaysia has introduced a shallow-water enhanced profitability term (EPT) production sharing contract (PSC) in the year 2021 to reward a PSC contractor with equitable returns reflecting the business risk and the opportunity to accelerate development and monetization. This study evaluates the attractiveness of the EPT against several fiscal terms adopted in southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Myanmar. This paper established an offshore shallow-water field development analogue project with a total production volume of 68 MMbbl, capital expenditure (Capex) of USD 530 million, predevelopment operating expenditure (Opex) of USD 36 million, variable Opex of USD 12.5/bbl, floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) rental of USD 61 million/year, and abandonment capital of USD 101 million. High, base, and low scenarios are considered for oil price per barrel as USD 70, 60, and 50, respectively, and production volume scenarios as 78, 68, and 58 MMbbl, respectively. These values with certain fiscal assumptions are input into a fiscal model engine for economic indicators [net present value (NPV), rate of return (ROR), and payback], revenue take, after-tax cashflow, and variables sensitivity calculations to evaluate base, optimistic, and pessimistic cases. In the base case, the attractiveness order of countries based on a higher-positive NPV at 10% and ROR are Malaysia EPT (NPV at 10% = USD 198 million, ROR = 30.4%), Indonesia PSC (2017) (NPV at 10% = USD 149 million, ROR = 28.3%), and Thailand Royalty and Tax (R/T; 1991) (NPV at 10% = USD 32 million, ROR = 14.5%). In the optimistic case, the NPVs at 10% are improved, ranging from Thailand (+271%), Myanmar (+247%), Malaysia (+151%), and Indonesia and Vietnam (+141%) as compared to the base case. In the pessimistic case, all the fiscal terms are unfeasible for ROR at 10%. Myanmar PSC (1993) yields above 10% ROR only when the production is at the base or high scenario with oil price at USD 70/bbl. Vietnam PSC (2013) is unfeasible for positive NPV at 10% even with high oil price under various taxes, including the windfall profit tax. Indonesia has a better NPV at 10% at a low oil price because of the progressive split that subsidizes the operator. Oil price and production volume are the top two sensitive variables except for Vietnam, where capital is the highest. The contractor take is higher in Malaysia, followed by Indonesia, Thailand, Myanmar, and Vietnam at base and high oil price. When the oil price is low, Indonesia generated a higher contractor take than Malaysia. Malaysia EPT is the only fiscal regime that can generate a contractor take that is higher than government take and stagnant around 55% against the 40% in Indonesia. In conclusion, Malaysia EPT provides a better investment return when the oil price is USD 60/bbl and above, while Indonesia gross split is more profitable when the oil price is low. This study provides insights on the potential investment returns by new EPT fiscal terms. The attractiveness and potential margin upside when the oil price is on the rebound paves the way for other southeast Asia fiscal terms.

Abstract:
Southeast Asia (SEA) is not only rich in multicultural areas but also rich in multilingual nations with the population of more than 624 million and more than 1,253 languages (Ethnologue 2015). With the cultural uniqueness of each country, this region also accords each national languages with language planning and political management. This strategy brings a challenges to SEA and can lead to conflicts among other ethnic groups, largely owing to leadership. The ethnic conflicts of SEA bring controversy between governments and minorities, such as the ethnic conflict in Aceh, Indonesia, the Muslim population of the south Thailand, and the Bangsa Moro of Mindanao, of the Philippines. The objective of this paper is to investigate the characteristics of the linguistic perspectives of SEA. This research examines two main problems. First, this paper investigates the linguistic area which refers to a geographical area in which genetically unrelated languages have come to share many linguistic features as a result of long mutual influence. The SEA has been called a linguistic area because languages share many features in common such as lexical tone, classifiers, serial verbs, verb-final items, prepositions, and noun-adjective order. SEA consists of five language families such as Austronesian, Mon-Khmer, Sino-Tibetan, Tai-Kadai, and Hmong-Mien. Second, this paper also examines why each nation of SEA takes one language to become the national language of the nation. The National language plays an important role in the educational system because some nations take the same languages as a national language—the Malay language in the case of Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. The research method of this paper is to apply comparative method to find out the linguistic features of the languages of SEA in terms of phonology, morphology, and grammar.

Full text
Abstract:
Malaysia offers a unique lens to evaluate the changing dynamics of radicalization and extremism in Southeast Asia, as the threat of both home-grown and external extremism grows. The country’s geographic location, bordering multiple active centers of violent extremism (the southern Philippines, southern Thailand, and Indonesia), makes it particularly vulnerable to further threats from violent extremism and terrorism, as regional and local violent extremist organizations (VEOs) exploit Malaysian geohistorical contexts and growing grievances related to social and political instability. Threats and risks of violent extremism are especially pronounced and manifest with severe consequences in the Malaysian state of Sabah. This policy note advances a granular review of the dynamics underlying radicalization risk in Sabah, Malaysia, in order to extrapolate an analysis of emerging areas of threat and risk of violent extremism facing Southeast Asia. It offers an opportunity to better understand current and future threats and risks of violent extremism facing Southeast Asia and identifies important trends and recommendations for policymakers and practitioners in mitigating the spread of violent extremism and radicalization to violence in Sabah. The policy note also considers how building local preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) capacity can mitigate Malaysia’s role as a staging area, transit hub, and conduit for the transportation of weapons, operatives, finances, and supporters to other regional and global terrorist organizations.

Abstract:
Turkey, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia span one of the longest continuously inhabited regions of the world. Centuries of cultural infusion have ensured these societies are highly heterogeneous. As plural polities, they are ripe for the kind of freedoms that liberal democracy can guarantee. However, despite having multi-party electoral systems, these countries have recently moved toward populist authoritarianism. Populism —once considered a distinctively Latin American problem that only seldom reared its head in other parts of the world— has now found a home in almost every corner of the planet. Moreover, it has latched on to religion, which, as history reminds us, has an unparalleled power to mobilize crowds. This report explores the unique nexus between faith and populism in our era and offers an insight into how cyberspace and offline politics have become highly intertwined to create a hyper-reality in which socio-political events are taking place. The report focuses, in particular, on the role of religious populism in digital space as a catalyst for undemocratic politics in the five Asian countries we have selected as our case studies. The focus on the West Asian and South Asian cases is an opportunity to examine authoritarian religious populists in power, whereas the East Asian countries showcase powerful authoritarian religious populist forces outside parliament. This report compares internet governance in each of these countries under three categories: obstacles to access, limits on content, and violations of user rights. These are the digital toolkits that authorities use to govern digital space. Our case selection and research focus have allowed us to undertake a comparative analysis of different types of online restrictions in these countries that constrain space foropposition and democratic voices while simultaneously making room for authoritarian religious populist narratives to arise and flourish. The report finds that surveillance, censorship, disinformation campaigns, internet shutdowns, and cyber-attacks—along with targeted arrests and violence spreading from digital space—are common features of digital authoritarianism. In each case, it is also found that religious populist forces co-opt political actors in their control of cyberspace. The situational analysis from five countries indicates that religion’s role in digital authoritarianism is quite evident, adding to the layer of nationalism. Most of the leaders in power use religious justifications for curbs on the internet. Religious leaders support these laws as a means to restrict “moral ills” such as blasphemy, pornography, and the like. This evident “religious populism” seems to be a major driver of policy changes that are limiting civil liberties in the name of “the people.” In the end, the reasons for restricting digital space are not purely religious but draw on religious themes with populist language in a mixed and hybrid fashion. Some common themes found in all the case studies shed light on the role of digital space in shaping politics and society offline and vice versa. The key findings of our survey are as follows: The future of (especially) fragile democracies is highly intertwined with digital space. There is an undeniable nexus between faith and populism which offers an insight into how cyberspace and politics offline have become highly intertwined. Religion and politics have merged in these five countries to shape cyber governance. The cyber governance policies of populist rulers mirror their undemocratic, repressive, populist, and authoritarian policies offline. As a result, populist authoritarianism in the non-digital world has increasingly come to colonize cyberspace, and events online are more and more playing a role in shaping politics offline. “Morality” is a common theme used to justify the need for increasingly draconian digital laws and the active monopolization of cyberspace by government actors. Islamist and Hindutva trolls feel an unprecedented sense of cyber empowerment, hurling abuse without physically seeing the consequences or experiencing the emotional and psychological damage inflicted on their victims.

Full text
Abstract:
Online marketplace participation is a strategy for reducing barriers for female entrepreneurs who qualify as persons with disabilities (PWDs). Adapting a framework focused on causal interaction, entrepreneurial action, and the sociocultural context, we analyzed data using a mixed-methods approach from an entrepreneurial training program aimed at PWDs and implemented in three Southeast Asian nations, namely Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines, to evaluate whether online marketplace participation helps female PWDs generate better income and support their families. Findings indicate that female PWD entrepreneurs who participate in the online marketplace generate better earnings than those who do not, although heterogeneities by nature of the product/service in question are prevalent. The results also show that trainees are better able to meet their families’ financial needs. Despite the advantages, online marketplace participation among female PWD entrepreneurs is still low due to constraints regarding capital, technical know-how, and suitability of products. Hence, targeted intervention is necessary to enhance their participation.
