Human capital is measured by (1) (higher) education in NK or SK, (2) work experience in NK or SK, and (3) participation in the employment support programs in SK. This study shows that there are two ways to ensure the economic well-being of NKDs: through employment and marriage. Removing the confounding effect from marriage, it suggests that higher education in NK is associated with decreases in full receipt of welfare and that both blue-collar and white-collar job experience in SK is associated with decreases in both partial and full receipt. It also suggests that license acquisition support is associated with decreases in both partial and full receipt. These findings imply that to facilitate the economic adjustment of NKDs, the government needs to focus on accumulating the human capital of NKDs, mostly without higher education in NK, through work experience in SK.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100126,"journal":{"name":"Asia and the Global Economy","volume":"2 3","pages":"Article 100048"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667111522000251/pdfft?md5=f8c1f9458de235742caff28b6f930826&pid=1-s2.0-S2667111522000251-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83675862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper traces the evolution and decomposition of poverty and inequality in 2000–2018 using official national household surveys. We find the growth since 2012, unlike before, was consistently pro-poor. Moreover, growth and redistribution aligned after 2012 to reduce poverty, whereas often before 2015 they offset each other's effects. Inequality improved, as the proportions of households with both heads and their spouses employed or receiving domestic assistances have risen faster among the poor than among the non-poor. Finally, the overall trends in the quality of growth and its contribution and that of redistribution to poverty adjustments are reflected in most regions. The Philippine experience in 2000–2018 thus underscores that growth alone does not ensure poverty reductions, while growth with government-directed redistribution can.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100126,"journal":{"name":"Asia and the Global Economy","volume":"2 2","pages":"Article 100039"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667111522000160/pdfft?md5=2c9f6a37a8da3d7e30c2f6e55a6a9bb6&pid=1-s2.0-S2667111522000160-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82980565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a Markov-switching analysis that allows for variation across stable and volatile domestic inflation regimes, we find evidence of significant inflation transmission from China to Australia and the five larger ASEAN economies. Chinese inflation effects are further confirmed when we incorporate money supply and commodity price effects within a Markov-switching Vector Autoregressive (MSVAR) framework. The importance of allowing for regime change over our sample period is clear and these inflation effects are shown to generally be stronger during periods when domestic inflation is more volatile. These findings on inflation pass-through from China represent a novel extension to a prior literature that has been primarily limited to real economy and trade effects.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100126,"journal":{"name":"Asia and the Global Economy","volume":"2 2","pages":"Article 100037"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667111522000147/pdfft?md5=464a9805432552ac933c6d192c1fccc4&pid=1-s2.0-S2667111522000147-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"92060738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The virus led to a pandemic affecting the physical facilitation of cross border merchandise trade. International trade is augmented with trade documentation and physical verification. Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) as WTO plus agreements between countries have provided bilateral trade opportunities for participating countries. Due to the pandemic, several physical processes shifted to digital mode and people were forced to participate, giving a boost to the digital economy across the world. Developing and under-developed countries were left behind due to a lack of clarity on digital trade provisions in the present WTO framework. Though, RTAs provided much scope for interpreting the existing provisions with innovation for the current times. The present study explores the digital trade provisions in the RTAs and how the pandemic will further push inculcating provisions. The focus is on RTAs that exist in the Asia Pacific region, along with India's perspective.
