Research paper thumbnail of Can Government Incentive on Remittance Encourages Remitters in Bangladesh? A Policy Study

ICRRD Quality Index Research Journal , 2022

The purpose of this inward remittance incentive policy is to encourage remitters to send money in a legal manner. This will minimize illegal money transfers from overseas, and the government will be able to grow the reserve. The goal of this research is to investigate if the policy has had any recent impact on remitters and if there has been any change in money flow from overseas to Bangladesh through legal channels. We investigated using Bangladesh Bank remittance data and discovered a significant increase in the Bangladesh remittance flow in FY 2020-2021. In correlation matrix analysis using Pearson product correlation matrix this study has found Bangladesh's reserve and remittances are more closely linked than those of Bhutan, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, following Nepal and India. However, the Pearson product correlation value for Pakistan and Sri Lanka was determined to be statistically insignificant.

Research paper thumbnail of Impact of Covid-19 on the Aviation Industry: A Comparison between South Asian and Other Asian Regions

Interestingly, at the same time, the Aviation Industry is also responsible for spreading the virus globally. The immediate effect is evident as Asian, European, and American carriers’ revenues are in free fall as travel restrictions mount. On 5 March, the Air Transport Association (IATA) projected a deadly hit on the global aviation industry up to $113 billion in 2020 which is one-fifth of 2019’s total revenues and four times higher than IATA estimates in February 2020. This research attempts to highlight the magnitude of the Aviation Industry's loss employing South Asia as a case study, and it contrasts the situation with certain other Asian regions by illustrating secondary data and information accessible till November 18, 2020. This paper applies a systematic review of the literature and descriptive statistics as the methodology to achieve the objective. The analysis revealed that the COVID-19 pandemic has substantially affected the revenues, personnel, and flying capacity of key airline companies in South Asia. South Asia lost more aviation capacity than the region of North-East Asia, but less than Southeast Asia.
