This book discusses the political economy of the SARS epidemic and its impact on human resources in East Asia, as it occurred in 2003. The epidemic spread from the People’s Republic of China, to Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan, amongst other countries in East Asia and as far away as North America, particularly Canada, the EU and elsewhere. The book looks first at earlier precedents, such as the Black Death and the way in which the potential threats of the recent epidemic were diffused across the world in ‘instant news’ reports; examining why it was dubbed the first ‘global epidemic’ due to its media coverage and how far the threat started a psychological ‘tsunami’ of fear and panic. Next, it examines the anticipated economic consequences arising from this phenomenon and how it affected the business of everyday life, market behaviour and human resources in the Chinese and Overseas Chinese economies. It focuses in particular detail on the cases of the PRC, Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan. It concludes with a discussion of the issues involved and lessons to be learnt, and draws conclusions both for theory and practice vis-à-vis future pandemics that may threaten the global economy in the coming decade and the public policy issues involved - Häftad, Engelska, 2012

This title was first published in 2000: The management of public services is becoming an increasingly difficult task. Demands are increasing while funds appear to be decreasing, but quality of service must remain high. New services are required, demands have to be faced, activities don't always go according to plan and problems emerge in unexpected places and at unusual times; and public managers are expected to deal with these deviations from their regular work patterns. While some activities are concrete in nature and can be seen, such as medical care and education, others are obscured from public view. With governments emphasizing areas that produce visible and quantifiable results, they often neglect the intangible services that must also be provided to the public. Poor performance in these areas can contribute to major crisi in public organizations. This volume examines four case studies in the context of the changing political and social environment of the new Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China. The use of these cases from the public sector in Hong Kong will hopefully help readers to understand the difficulties faced by modern governments in providing basic services to the public. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2017

In 2021, U.S. Navy personnel accidentally caused two releases of kerosene-based aviation fuel (jet propellant 5, or JP-5) from the Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility on O'ahu, Hawai'i, contaminating the drinking water supply for Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and the Aliamanu Military Reservation. This exposure impacted up to 93,000 individuals, disrupting their lives and, for many, resulting in acute and ongoing health concerns.The Department of Veterans Affairs and the Defense Health Agency tasked the National Academies with convening an expert committee to make recommendations for monitoring the health of community members exposed. The resulting report was informed by exposed community members. It reviews and determines the strength of scientific evidence; reviews available exposure assessments and models: provides recommendations on clinical surveillance, testing, and care: and identifies research needs.
