Title : The Influence of CNY in RCEP Countries Based on the Trade Pricing
Author(s): Hang Lyu; Mohamad Nasir Saludin
Abstract: The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) would conduce to increasing the investment and trade dependence of member countries. With the increasingly close economic and trade relations in East Asia, the dependence of East Asian countries on the United States and the European Union would decrease to a certain extent. Meanwhile, it would also affect the status of the U.S. dollar, euro and sterling in Asia. The China Yuan (CNY), by contrast, would be more widespread. This would further accelerate the process of CNY internationalization. The purpose of this paper is to test whether the CNY could serve as a trade invoicing currency in RCEP countries in the context of China's deep involvement in the Asian value chain. Thus, it could provide a basis for China to enhance the regional influence of the CNY through the trade channel in the short term. Based on the structure of the Asian value chain and the role of CNY in Asia, this article would focus on the pricing paradigm framework of intra-regional trade in RCEP countries. Taking trade pricing as the entry point, this article would study the influence of CNY exchange rate fluctuations on intra-regional trade in RCEP countries. In addition, this article would discuss whether it could enhance the influence of CNY in RCEP countries through trade channels, so as to provide a foothold for promoting the internationalization of CNY in the short term.

Title : Mobilizing Subnational Resources in Nigeria’s South-East Zone: The Case of Imo State
Author(s): Emeka Osuji; Stanley Emife Nwani
Abstract: Most of Nigeria’s 36 states are dependent on the Federal Government for the bulk of their revenue. This is an aberration as they are supposed to meet their fiscal obligations from Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), augmented by funds from the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC). Revenue from FAAC, which was supposed to be secondary, has become the mainstay of most states. Only a handful of them come close to meeting their financial obligations from IGR, casting a shadow of insolvency across the states. With the recent pandemic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its disruptions in the global economy, FAAC has dwindled significantly, compelling Nigeria and her subnational to look inwards towards sustainability. This study uses the descriptive data analysis method to examine the revenue performance of states in Nigeria's southeast, to advance strategies for increased IGR mobilization. It was found that on average, IGR was only 22 per cent of the total revenue of the states, based on 2018 revenue data. Ebonyi state had the lowest IGR contribution to total revenue at 12 per cent, while Enugu led at 29 per cent. Imo had the highest IGR Cumulative Average Growth Rate over the ten years to 2018 but was the most indebted. The poor IGR outcome is linked to weak revenue mobilization capacity, narrow tax net, rampant revenue leakages due to corruption and low technology application. Tax law reform and the use of technology are among the key recommendations along with fiscal management capacity building.

Abstract: Orang Melayu or the Malays are an Austronesian ethnic group inborn to Malay Peninsula eastern Sumatra, and coastal Borneo, and some other small islands that lie between these areas that are communally identified as the Malay land. Trading system in the land began as early as 6th/7th century AD with the rise of entrepots and feeder points. Among the Malay peasants, they had a unique livestock loan activity or Sistem Pawah which benefited both parties: the loanee and loaner. It was conducted without the intervention of money as a medium of exchange. This paper discusses Sistem Pawah which has still being practiced by the modern Malay community. Several interviews and questionnaire were made with 23 loanees and 15 loaners of Sistem Pawah that being envisaged: amongst are assessing disclosure agreement, territorial right and renewal and termination. The study also presents the ethics of business and culture, or the impact of Malay/Islamic values on the business, within the scope of Malay community. From the study, it was found that Sistem Pawah has its own uniqueness despite the conventional values and proportions as it suggests. By inheriting the business shrewdness from their ancestors, coupled with support provided by government, the Malay peasants succeeded in gaining their portion on the financial economic sector. The showcase can be seen from the involvement of agencies and individuals in the pawah activity. Yet, it shows a disparity where the Malays do not have a cohesive group to help each other and enhance their activities prowess in this business. Prior to that a model for the pawah livestock system is proposed so that it can be an exclusive entrepreneurial scheme for the involved people.
