China has efficiently applied this craft in Central Asia and other parts of the world through infrastructure development projects which in turn would make China better off in energy, economy and security. The Central Asian Republic of Kazakhstan is the largest land-locked country in the world which shares a long border with China. This former Soviet Republic has pivotal strategic potential due to its location and massive natural reserves. Since China's energy needs are ever-increasing because of its enormous industrial capacity so she is preferably considering Kazakhstan for energy partnership. Two out of six economic corridors of \"Belt & Road Initiative\" (BRI) of China are also passing through Kazakh Republic. These considerations make Kazakhstan specifically and Central Asia generally a centre of China's attention. In that perspective, the instant study investigates China's economic policy towards Kazakhstan. A qualitative method of reasoning is followed to find the results. It reveals that Kazakhstan has obtained a central role in fulfilling the energy requirements of China.","PeriodicalId":320360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Sciences Review","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116715580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CSR communication is more than simply good manners, which is critical to the success of the telecommunications business. To fully grasp the significance of CSR communication elements, it is vital to realize that CSR must be included in any new company items or services. The study is conducted to examine the role of social media on CSR communication factors and to investigate the role of CSR communication factors on corporate financial performance. The analysis is confined to Pakistan's telecommunications industry. Pakistan's telecom business is dominated by four main companies: PTCL/Ufone, Jazz, Telenor, and Zong. Employees from the CSR department were chosen for the research. This study's conclusions advocate for online organizations that use social media. This research contributes to online discussion forums, which is essential since it demonstrates how some communication components rely on these platforms. The findings of this study recommend online groups that utilize social media.","PeriodicalId":320360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Sciences Review","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114212672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The issue has been equally chanted in the Pakistani Media, both print as well as electronic. Through this issue, individuals having major positions both at an official and national level have been put under fire. The Editorials written by both Daily Dawn and The News represent an insightful analysis and give their expert opinion on the issue. According to McCombs (1972), it is the role of the media to present the interesting aspects of the political parties and to convey the reason for a political campaign to gather public support. Van Dijk (1997) has provided his model for Critical Discourse Analysis in which he has illustrated some of the categories which, according to him, are essential for CDA studies. He is of the view that it often happens that the writer sometimes hides the agent and his identity if the agent is doing something wrong. He has given the concept of self and others. The newspapers framed two major ideologies one was of PTI, and the other was of PML-N. PTI’s ideology was to hold a strong opposition to the case leaving no way out for the Sharifs.

The study gives an insight into the motivation level of these students towards their English language class, their expectations from the course, their feedback about the content being taught to them and their general attitude towards English as a language. Students from various departments were interviewed with open-ended questions by the teacher to get in-depth qualitative answers, as well as with a questionnaire of close-ended questions for some quantitative analysis too. The answers of the students were categorized according to research questions, and they were analyzed to find the most common answers and to get the gist of students' feedback and revise our course content and policy of English as a compulsory subject in undergraduate programs accordingly. The analysis of their answers showed that the majority of the students wanted to learn the English language but they found the course content and teaching methodologies, including classroom instructions, a bit boring. Most of the students expected grammar and spoken skills to be taught. Very few students were of the view that ESP courses with subject-specific English should be taught to them.

The relationship between high-performance work systems and employee job satisfaction was investigated based on the social exchange perspective, and the moderating impact of perceived organizational support was examined. The claim that High-Performance Work Systems will increase social relationships between employers and employees was backed by theory. Data was collected from faculty members, and administrative staff of three public institutions and two private universities in Bahawalpur.326 was the total study sample for this study. For the collection of data, a survey research questionnaire approach was used. It was a cross-sectional study. IBM SPSS Statistics 29.0.0.0(241) is used for the purpose of Data Analysis. Cronbach Alpha and Regression were calculated. According to the results, high-performance work systems are more likely to have a beneficial effect on employees' Job Satisfaction through Perceived Organizational Support. University staff are urged to take into account the significance of implementing High-Performance Work Systems so as to increase employee satisfaction in light of the paper's findings. Evidence from the study supports the idea that Perceived Organisational Support has a moderating effect on the association between Job satisfaction and the High Performance of Work Systems that employers have implemented.","PeriodicalId":320360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Sciences Review","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115821335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the bulk of the research focuses on the difficulties connected with the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, the goal of this study is to examine the beneficial effects of this project, particularly for Pakistan (CPEC). To evaluate the contribution of CPEC to Pakistan's sustainable economic growth, this research evaluates the relevant literature. This research suggests that the CPEC is an ambitious development project since it requires a more extensive reorganization of Pakistan's economy. In addition to generating significant amounts of foreign direct investment for Pakistan, this project will also provide China access to a new market, which will increase its trade potential. This analysis found that the CPEC would boost regional connectivity, solve energy shortages, expand infrastructure, and foster people-to-people ties in both nations, all of which will assist to boost the tourist industry.","PeriodicalId":320360,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Sciences Review","volume":"16 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133077726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
