Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a humanitarian emergency, which started in Wuhan in China in early December 2019, brought into the notice of the authorities in late December, early January 2020, and, after ...investigation, was declared as an emergency in the third week of January 2020. The WHO declared this as Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) on 31th of January 2020, and finally a pandemic on 11th March 2020. As of March 24th, 2020, the virus has caused a casualty of over 16,600 people worldwide with more than 380,000 people confirmed as infected by it, of which more than 10,000 cases are serious. Mainly based on Chinese newspapers, social media and other digital platform data, this paper analyzes the timeline of the key actions taken by the government and people over three months in five different phases. It found that although there was an initial delay in responding, a unique combination of strong governance, strict regulation, strong community vigilance and citizen participation, and wise use of big data and digital technologies, were some of the key factors in China's efforts to combat this virus. Being inviable and non-measurable (unlike radioactive exposure), appropriate and timely information is very important to form the basic foundation of mitigation and curative measures. Infodemic, as it is termed by WHO, is a key word, where different stakeholder's participation, along with stricter regulation, is required to reduce the impact of fake news in this information age and social media. Although different countries will need different approaches, focusing on its humanitarian nature and addressing infodemic issues are the two critical factors for future global mitigation efforts.
The legal certainty of out-of-court settlements through customary law is still questionable in the Indonesian legal system, even though restorative justice is an approach that aims to build a ...criminal justice system that is sensitive to the problems of victims. Restorative justice which means a glorification of relationships and making amends that the perpetrator of the crime (his family) wants to make to the victim of the crime outside the court with the intention and purpose that the legal problems arising from the criminal act can be resolved properly by reaching an agreement and agreement between the parties. how is the enforcement of good governance and local wisdom in law enforcement in the North Lampung resort police? This research uses qualitative research methods with a Socio Legal approach. Socio-legal is a legal research approach that uses the help of social sciences as a single approach. Because of this approach, the socio-legal goal is to integrate as a whole the knowledge, skills, and forms of research experience of two (or several) disciplines in an effort to overcome some of the theoretical and methodological limitations of the disciplines concerned. As in the case of Wari Gunawan bin Ngatimin as a suspect for allegedly committing the crime of Fraud Article 378 of the Criminal Code. The result of the research is that in solving problems in the community, the existence of Ippun Aneg is intended as a guideline in handling and/or resolving problems that arise in the community. The settlement of criminal offenses through restoration justice in this case cannot be carried out because the unfinished return of losses received by the victim is the main obstacle to the settlement of this case through restoration justice at the level of investigation and investigation even though peace has been made between the perpetrator and the victim. In addition, the letter of request from the perpetrator, victim and related parties has not been made and submitted, which is an obstacle to the settlement through restoration justice.

Nigeria has been fighting a war against terrorism for long time. It is uncertain if the war can be won because it has been exacerbated by lack of good governance. People have been deprived of ...economic opportunities, they are socially insecure and politically docile. This has had dire consequences for their human emancipation, which good governance attempts to build. Terrorism has found convenient marketability among the people as failure of the state in good governance has meant easy recruitment for terrorist activities. Therefore, for the war to be effectively prosecuted and won, sources of impediments to good governance need to be identified and addressed squarely. In other words, the curtailment of terrorism in Nigeria is hinged on abilities of the Nigerian state to promote good governance. Presently, Nigeria has been bedeviled with the twinning tragicness of terrorism and lack of good governance, the two signify failure for the state. Dishearteningly, today, Nigeria is on the verge of becoming a failed state because of its failure in good governance, Nigeria has continually witnessed decline in indicators of good governance. It has become incapable to provide security to citizens as acts of terrorism, banditry and kidnapping have been aggravated in the country.
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to scrutinise the intricate relationship between the inadequate enforcement of anti-corruption laws and the application of good governance and the persisting ...prevalence of coups d'état and poverty in Africa. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses a doctrinal legal research approach, synthesising existing literature while extensively analysing primary and secondary legal sources. Its primary aim is to scrutinise the intricate relationship between the inadequate enforcement of anti-corruption laws and the application of good governance and the persisting prevalence of coups d'état and poverty in Africa. The choice of case study countries Burkina Faso, Chad, Gabon, Guinea, Mali, Niger and Sudan stems from their historical significance, regional diversity, data accessibility and potential insights into the interplay among anti-corruption enforcement, governance, poverty and coups d'état in Africa. Findings The enforcement of anti-corruption laws and the promotion of good governance are indispensable for democracy and economic stability; their suboptimal enforcement directly contributes to coups d'état and the worsening of poverty in African nations. It emphasises the imperative for African countries to consistently and proficiently enforce anti-corruption laws and adhere to principles of good governance, effectively and responsibly, to mitigate coups d'état and alleviate poverty in the region. Originality/value This study designs a model strategy for combating coups d'état and corruption in Africa as contribution to knowledge in the field of study.

This article extends previous sustainability literature by demonstrating the effectiveness of good governance in rebalancing the economic, environmental, and social components of sustainable ...development. Good economic, political, and institutional governance are considered as conditional variables, which allow rebalancing these three components in the case of 20 selected MENA economies for the period 1996–2014. Using simultaneous-equation modeling approach, we find that (i) political and institutional governance positively contribute to the three components of sustainable development; (ii) there exists a two-way linkages between human development and economic growth, meaning that they are interrelated and may very well serve as complements to each other; (iii) increased economic growth conducts to further emissions, which, in turn, decreases economic growth; (iv) enhancing human development conducts to a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, which, in turn, negatively affects human development; (v) improving both political and institutional governance permits MENA governments to moderate both the negative impacts of carbon emissions on economic growth and human development and the positive impact of economic growth on increasing emissions, and as a result sustainable development.
