Factors Influencing Purchase Intention Towards Crop Insurance ( Wather Index-Based Crop Insurance) ( Kyaw Myo Swe, 2025)
The objectives of the study are to identify the factors influencing purchase
intention towards crop insurance and to analyze factors influencing purchase intention
towards crop insurance. The study uses quantitative research methods. Systematic
simple random sampling method is used in this study. The findings highlight that
attitude, social norms and perceived behavioral control have positive effect on
purchase intention towards crop insurance. Conversely, insurance literacy did not
show a significant effect on purchase intention towards crop insurance. Among the
factors, perceived behavioral control has the highest positive effect on purchase
intention whereas social norms has the lowest effect on purchase intention. According
to the regression results, targeted educational campaigns can strengthen positive
attitudes, while collaborative community programs can reinforce social norms. By
enhancing perceived behavioral control through accessible processes and tools,
Myanma Insurance can further increase farmers' inclination toward crop insurance.
Addressing these factors holistically will enable Myanma Insurance to drive greater
adoption of crop insurance and contribute to the financial stability of the farming
sector

A Study on The Excise Administration of General Administration Department in Myanmar (Case Study : Hmawbi Township) (Myo Swe Oo, 2025)
This study, entitled “A Study on the Excise Administration of the General
Administration Department in Myanmar,” examines the excise administration system
in Myanmar, focusing on its regulatory framework, implementation practices, and the
perceptions of excise licensees in Hmawbi Township. The study aims to explore the
understanding and perception of excise licensees on the Excise Administration in
Myanmar, handled by the General Administration Department. The study utilizes a
descriptive approach, combining primary data from a simple random sample of excise
licensees with secondary data from official sources. Key findings indicate that
licensees are aware of core licensing conditions but exhibit knowledge gaps regarding
regulations on storage, trademarks, and specific operating procedures. Perceptions of
the excise administration, primarily managed by the General Administration
Department (GAD), are generally positive; licensees recognize the importance of
controlling alcohol distribution to mitigate social harm and express support for
regulatory measures such as limiting license issuance. However, concerns persist
about the complexity of licensing procedures, illicit competition, and enforcement
challenge
Production and Utilization of Retarder from Hardwood Sawdust
In this study, production of retarding admixture ASTM C494 Type B from hardwood sawdust and utilization on concrete by using various dosage of admixture was studied. In production of retarder as a local product lignosulphonates based retarding admixture was produced to investigate differences of test results by using admixtures. In this project, selected raw material was Pyin Ka do sawdust and sodium sulphite Na2SO3 was used as a cooking aid chemical liquor by heating at 110°C based on pulp and paper sulphite process. The mechanisms of action of lignosulphonate admixture in cement water systems are prescribed by five different types interaction between retarder and cement grains i Reduction in surface tension of water ii Adsorption iii Electrical repulsion iv Dispersion and v Deflocculation. These reactions cause delaying in setting time.In utilization of retarder on concrete, setting time of hydraulic cement paste, compressive strength of mortar and concrete were considered by using produced admixture dosage of 0.5 , 1 , 1.5 by weight of cement. The setting time testing of cement paste was made by using vicat needle penetration test, and compressive strength was tested with standard cubes. The test results of produced admixture were compared with ASTM C494 1993 . Compressive strength of mortar was tested with 3 inches cube and that of concrete was tested by 6 inches standard cube. For comparison of cost and results of produced admixture, commercial admixture 0.5 by weight of cement was tested.

Myo-pneumatische kinderhandprothese 2
Er bestaat een technisch prototype van een myo-elektrisch bestuurde, pneumatisch bekrachtigde kinderhandprothese. Gewenst is dat een klinisch prototype wordt ontworpen, dat wil zeggen een prototype dat door een patient gedragen en getest kan worden. Dit rapport is een verslag van de werkzaamheden die hebben geleid tot een nieuw ontwerp. Na een bespreking van de functionele opbouw, welke laatste van beide prothesen gelijk is, volgt het verslag van het herontwerp van de mechanische schakelklep en de krachtfase. Vervolgens wordt uitgelegd hoe de standfase is te splitsen in een veermechanisme en een pneumatische motor. Eerst wordt dan het ontwerp van het veermechanisme nader uitgewerkt, waarna wordt besproken hoe is gekomen tot een ontwerp waarin de pneumatische standmotor en het vergrendelmechanisme zijn samengebouwd in een cilinder. Na een hoofdstuk over de voorwerpmelde wordt als laatste nog enige aandacht besteed aan de behuizing van het geheel.Biomechanical EngineeringMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin
Blood Myo-Inositol Concentrations in Preterm and Term Infants
© 2020, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature America, Inc. Objective: To describe relationship between cord blood (representing fetal) myo-inositol concentrations and gestational age (GA) and to determine trends of blood concentrations in enterally and parenterally fed infants from birth to 70 days of age. Design/Methods: Samples were collected in 281 fed or unfed infants born in 2005 and 2006. Myo-inositol concentrations were displayed in scatter plots and analyzed with linear regression models of natural log-transformed values. Results: In 441 samples obtained from 281 infants, myo-inositol concentrations varied from nondetectable to 1494 μmol/L. Cord myo-inositol concentrations decreased an estimated 11.9% per week increase in GA. Postnatal myo-inositol concentrations decreased an estimated 14.3% per week increase in postmenstrual age (PMA) and were higher for enterally fed infants compared to unfed infants (51% increase for fed vs. unfed infants). Conclusions: Fetal myo-inositol concentrations decreased with increasing GA. Postnatal concentrations decreased with increasing PMA and were higher among enterally fed than unfed infants
Defining empirical management of acute febrile illness in Myanmar
Fever is a common presenting symptom in primary care in low- and middle- income countries (LMICs). Non-malaria pathogens are now responsible in most cases after a decline of malaria in previously malaria endemic regions of Myanmar. It is important to provide appropriate treatment to those patients after malaria is ruled out by rapid tests or microscopy.
The overall aim of this thesis is to improve management of acute non-malaria febrile illness in Myanmar. Empirical treatment strategies with selected antibiotics were devised and their cost-effectiveness was evaluated using a decision tree modelling approach.
A systematic review on infectious neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) was conducted to collate all reports of NTDs in Myanmar (Chapter 2). The review identified diseases (rickettsial infection and leptospirosis) commonly associated with acute fever and this finding partly informed selection of antibiotics for empirical treatment. A cost- effectiveness analysis of empirical treatment showed empirical treatments being cost- saving and C-reactive protein (CRP) guided empirical treatments being highly cost- effective compared to current practice of care in rural Myanmar (Chapter 3). Alongside this, antibiotic use for acute febrile illness was also explored from the prescriber’s perspective by secondary analysis of the data derived from a clinical trial (Chapter 4) and the user’s perspective by public engagement activities (Chapter 6). The secondary data analysis found a substantial variation of antibiotic prescription among primary care doctors for acute febrile illness and the variation remained after accounting for patients’ clinical presentations and CRP test results. Widespread environmental distribution of Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causal organism of melioidosis, which commonly presents as community acquired pneumonia and sepsis, was confirmed by a large nationwide study (Chapter 5).
In conclusion, this thesis uses a multifaceted approach to improve management of acute febrile illness in Myanmar. Findings from this thesis point towards an empirical antibiotic treatment strategy as a potential approach for management of non-malaria febrile illness in rural Myanmar which could be evaluated in field trials
Detecting Social Spam Profile on Twitter
The fast development of social networkingsites such as imparting, sharing, putting away andoverseeing huge data leads to pull in cybercriminals.Spammers misuse these social networking sites toabuse cyber laws for their unlawful arts. They startwith email, and then quickly spread to newadvancements, for example, texting, newsgroups andsmart phones. As online social networks, forexample, MySpace, Facebook and Twitter turned outto be progressively well known, spammers rapidlyfound another home for their spamming purposes.Spamming activities of social spammers not onlycauses dangerous for normal social network usersbut also annoys to these users. The aim of this paperis to develop social spammer detection approach withlow cost and low overhead. The detection approachis a three-phase process: (1) features extraction, (2)features selection and (3) classification. Validation ofthis approach is tested with 1KS-10KN dataset andCRESCI-2015 dataset
