The Role Of Mayors In Achieving Brunei Darussalam’S Wawasan 2035, Lessons From China, Brice Tseen Fu Lee, Ayidana Asihaer, Juan Pablo Sims

Journal of Strategic and Global Studies

Brunei Darussalam's national vision, WAWASAN 2035, sets forth ambitious goals for the nation's development, emphasizing a centralized governance paradigm. However, the potential of decentralized governance, as exemplified by China's mayor-led districts, offers a compelling model for achieving national aspirations. This research explores the feasibility and potential benefits of introducing mayors in Brunei's districts, drawing insights from China's successful decentralized governance structure. By fostering inter-district competition and allowing for localized policy tailoring, Brunei can enhance its adaptability and responsiveness to local nuances. Drawing from China's experiences, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of how Brunei might optimize its governance structure to …

From A Nation Of Quarter-Humans To That Of A Proud People: Technology Transfer And Nationalism In Indonesia (1951-1998), Asep Suryana

Masyarakat: Jurnal Sosiologi

A series of technology transfer programs took place after Indonesia became fully independent, from 1951 until the fall of the New Order (1998). This article unpacks the ways the authoritarian New Order government utilize nationalist discourses, reproduced in the postcolonial context. These programs were framed as an antithesis to the negative psycho-social aspects of Dutch colonialism as a mean of postcolonial national integration, and as a strategy to make Indonesia’s position more equal to the more developed countries. At the same time, the technology transfer programs relied heavily on the high capacity of the authoritarian state. This study asserts that …

Antiretroviral therapy has been effective in suppressing HIV viral load and enabling people living with HIV to experience longer, more conventional lives. However, as people living with HIV are living longer, they are developing aging-related diseases prematurely and are more susceptible to comorbidities that have been linked to chronic inflammation. Coincident with HIV infection and aging, drug abuse has also been independently associated with gut dysbiosis, microbial translocation, and inflammation. Here, we hypothesized that injection drug use would exacerbate HIV-induced immune activation and inflammation, thereby intensifying immune dysfunction. We recruited 50 individuals not using injection drugs (36/50 HIV⁺) …

Personalized Trial Ethics And Institutional Review Board Submissions, Joyce P Samuel, Susan H Wootton

Student and Faculty Publications

The ethical and regulatory oversight of any clinical activity related to human subjects is commonly determined based on its categorization as either clinical practice or research. Prominent bioethicists have criticized the traditional distinctions used to delineate these categories, calling them counterproductive and outmoded, and arguing that learning and clinical practice should be deliberately and appropriately integrated. Personalized trials represent a clinical activity with characteristics that overlap both categories, making ethical and regulatory oversight requirements less straightforward. When the primary intent of the personalized trial is to assist in the conduct of individualized patient care with an emphasis on protecting the …
