case study of Kurdistan region government Iraq
Full text linkThesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Management, 2021The advancement in technological innovations worldwide, along with the rising demand for better service delivery, pressures governments to promote new technologies for shifting from the "traditional" bureaucracy to a more efficient, modern one based on scientific analysis. In this sense, the information of communication technology -ICT- enables people to communicate across the country and helps reduce time-consuming and routine in the government.
However, challenges exist in knowing which ICT could function as a tool for government modernization. The purpose of this research is to study progress the role of e-government in enabling administrative reform in the Kurdistan Regional Government -KRG-. Also, identify the various obstacles and steps to help the improvement of government system processes. In addition, the research establishes a strategic plan which enhances the government projects, on the other hand, to understand the people in Kurdistan Region-Iraq (KRI''s) needs and participation in reform to reduce the routine and increase transparency.
This research involves the use of secondary and primary data that includes the design of the questionnaires and random sampling to collect the data from responses in the ministries and departments in the KRG. Thus, it is stakeholders to experience the usage and impact of ICT in enabling administrative reform in the KRG.
Based on the outcome from the analysis of this research, it could summarize that e- government has an important role in enabling administrative reform, reduce corruption and lead in the quality of work to do promotion of good governance in the public sector in KRG. However, does not guarantee to enable administrative reform and end of the corruption, if the environment of establishment e-government project is not applicable.CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

health outcomes of young single-person households in South Korea
Full text linkThesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Policy, 2021Does living alone have a negative impact on a person’s health? Specifically, do the health outcomes of young adults from single-person households differ from those of young adults from multi-person households? Single-person households are increasing around the world. Yet the evidence linking living alone and one’s health is mixed. This study examines the health outcomes of South Koreans in their 20s and 30s in single- and multi-person households, using 15 years of data from the Korea Welfare Panel Study (KoWePS) and individual and time fixed effects regression analysis. This paper examined the case of South Korea, where the number of single-person households follows the pattern of rise like other countries but has a distinct feature that it increased rapidly in a short period of time. The findings suggest a statistically significant association between household type and health outcomes. Young adults living in single-person households were shown to have a lower reported health status, were more likely to visit an outpatient clinic, and were more likely to suffer from depression. The article further examines how the disparities in health status and mental between the two household types develop over time using the Cox Proportional Hazards Model. The results suggest that the health status and mental health hazard of single-person households are larger than that of multi-person households, and the gap of hazard probabilities between two groups is widening over time.1.

focus on monetary policy
Full text linkThesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Policy, 2021This research analyzes the scenario of execution of a monetary policy during the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand and 10 South East Asia countries. The concept of monetary policy shows that it is an instrument to deal with inflation rate, unemployment, and gross domestic product (GDP) in the economic downturn. The most significant determinant of GDP effect on inflation rate and unemployment in the pandemic period. A multipronged package of fiscal, monetary policies is applying these objectives in Thailand policy to alleviate some of an unpresented economy. The study shows a new database response to COVID-19 pandemic by collecting these on a comparable basis across 11 countries in Southeast Asia region. Because monetary policy are critical players to support and provide sufficient economy for the COVID-19 situation. Central banks are gaining a critical role in driving their alleviation in the financial system. However, the scope of monetary policy is enormous. The study will analyze the factors which affect the monetary policies and enhance the resilience and alleviation of the pandemic and financial system.Chapter 1 Introduction

Stakeholder's mental model on the causality and priority of the civil service reform agenda in the Maldives
Full text linkThesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Management, 2021This research paper is based on stakeholder’s mental models on the civil service human resource management reform in the Maldives based on causality and priorities of the Human resource management reform agenda. Due to the lack of intervention on the civil service human resource reform process, lack of morality and lack of motivation, lack of services in different organization within this sector had multiple issues in the Maldives for the last three decades.
This research paper was conducted based on the civil service employee’s interviews from employees holding different positions across Human resource departments and other functional departments. Key stakeholder ideas are incorporated on their views on Governmenfs focus on reforming civil sector of Maldives. I have approached this research due to lack of studies done including employees, opinion and suggestions. In the public sector most of the researches had been done by experts with their opinion on ensuring reform in the civil service sector.
This research paper is based on interviewed civil servant's ideas and suggestions of the reform agenda on the priorities of the seven factors. The stakeholder’s mental model in the civil service human resource reform, can be done based on this research paper’s final model, which is entirely focused on the stakeholders5 priorities and their orders. Those priorities are given by the interview of the civil servants of the Maldives. Interviewed employees has given the priorities based on the following factors:
1) Accountability,
2) Employees Satisfaction,
3) Performance Management System,
4) Customer Satisfaction,
5) Compensation Equality,
6) Training Opportunities and
7) Transparency.CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

Critical success factors of the overseas PPP infrastructure project from the perspective of Korea
Full text linkThesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Management, 2021The Public Private Partnership (PPP) modality is actively utilized around the world as a way to attract private investment instead of government investment that is suffering from financial limitations. However, all PPP projects are not able to guarantee successful results due to the intrinsic characteristics of the PPP project, such as long-term business, the complexity of scope, various stakeholders, and complex contracts. As a result, many efforts have been made to understand what affects a successful PPP project. Moreover, most of the studies identifying factors associated with the successful result of the PPP project have been reviewed in countries other than Korea, so research is needed to verify Critical Success Factors (CSFs) of the PPP project from a Korean perspective.
This study aims to evaluate CSFs for the PPP project from the perspective of Koreans through a questionnaire survey with the respondents who have participated in the PPP project using CSFs identified from the comprehensive literature reviews. A preliminary survey was conducted prior to survey to verify the suitability of questions and derive a valid survey result. The questionnaire was designed to evaluate the importance of individual CFSs from 1 to 7 point Likert scale. Using the collected data, the respondents' demographic information was used for descriptive statistics, and the response results were used to determine the relative ranking for 30 CSFs using IBM SPSS software. Then, reliability test, normality test, and significant test were conducted to determine whether the public and private sectors showed different results in the perception of CSFs.
Overall top five ranked CSFs show mean value ranging from 6.38 to 6.64 are (1) Government willingness, (2) Sufficient profitability of the project to attract, (3) Private sector’s capabilities of fulfilling the contract, (4) Strong and good Private consortium, (5) Available financial and capital market.
From a general perspective, the ranking of CSFs can be recognized as having a similar opinion on CSFs of PPP projects in the public and private sectors based on the result of non- parametric Mann-Whitney test.
Another important fact confirmed through this study is that the results found in this study were different from those conducted on non-Koreans in the past. This fact is consistent with previous studies that various CSFs may affect the success of PPP project to a varying degree or may have different results depending on the research environment.
Despite some limitations of this study, the results of this study are considered to be of great help in deriving more successful results when carrying out overseas PPP projects, and further research is needed to identify more accurate CSFs for PPP projects.Ⅰ. Introduction

산업부문 에너지 집약도의 장기적 변화: 1970-2005
No full text이 논문은 KLEMS 데이터를 활용하여 1970년부터 2005년 사이 우리나라 산업부문의 에너지 집약도 변화를 개관하고 그 변화 요인을 산업 구조 변화와 각 산업의 에너지 가격 변화 민감도의 차이로 나누어 분석한다. 기존의 연구들에 비해 이 논문은 산업구조의 변화가 차지하는 중요성을 강조하는데, 1985년 이전에는 에너지 집약도를 상승시키는 방향으로, 1990년대 이후에는 에너지 집약도를 낮추는 방향으로 작용했음을 보인다. 또한 각 산업의 에너지 가격 변화 대응에 있어 1985년 이전에는 에너지 집약도가 높은 산업에서 에너지 효율화를 꾀했지만, 1985 이후로는 이러한 현상이 관찰되지 않으며, 특히 서비스업에서 이런 현상이 두드러짐을 밝힌다. 이 논문은 기존 연구에 비해 기간 측면에서는 1980년대 이전, 산업 범위 측면에 있어서는 전산업을 대상으로 분석했다는 차이가 있다.
The Importance of Specification Choices When Analyzing Sectoral Productivity Gaps
No full textA consistent finding in the development literature is that average non-farm labor productivity is higher than average farm labor productivity. These differences in average productivity are sometimes used to promote policies which advance the non-farm sector. In this paper, we analyze the importance of two specification choices when comparing productivity gaps, using detailed household panel data from Malawi. Importantly, we are able to calculate both average revenue products (ARPLs) – similar to most of the sectoral productivity gap literature – as well as marginal revenue products (MRPLs). We show that the choice of productivity measure combined with the choice of production function specification can lead to different sectoral productivity rankings. MRPLs from translog production functions suggest the household farm sector is more productive than the household non-farm sector, while MRPLs from a Cobb-Douglas and ARPLs from both a translog and a Cobb-Douglas find the opposite ranking
