Poverty and inequality remain extremely high for Cameroon despite improvements in poverty figures between 1996 and 2001. To understand the dynamics of poverty and inequality between 1996 and 2001, this book develops a poverty and inequality profile, investigates the sources of inequality along spatial lines and simulates some policies which could be used in the reduction of poverty and inequality. The book also addresses two major sectors of the Cameroonian economy with a special focus on gender bias in agriculture and linkages between the formal and informal sector. The empirical analyses show that there are large spatial differences in poverty in Cameroon and that sources of inequality vary by location. Regardless of the definition used, the informal sector in Cameroon is extremely large but closely linked to the formal sector. The gender bias experienced by women in access to productive assets in agriculture reduces the efficiency of agricultural production.

Bei den Parlamentswahlen zur Verchovnaja Rada am 29. März 1998 trugen die Wähler des Dnipropetrovs'ker Gebiets (oblast) entscheidend zum Einzug der zentristischen Partei Hromada in das Parlament bei, weil ihre Stimmen mehr als die Hälfte aller in der Ukraine für Hromada abgegebenen Voten (4,71%) ausgemacht haben. Dnipropetrovs'k wurde damit zur Wählerhochburg von Hromada. Den Einzug ins Parlament verdankt Hromada vor allem dem Parteivorsitzenden Pavlo Lazarenko, dem ehemaligen Ministerpräsidenten, angeblich reichster Mann der Ukraine, der zur Zeit der Wahlen Vorsitzender der Gebietslegislative in Dnipropetrovs'k war. Er gilt als stärkster Rivale Kumas bei den Präsidentschaftswahlen von 1999. Lazarenko konnte mit Hilfe der Massenmedien sowie durch populistische Wahlversprechen und eine vorübergehende Rentenanhebung grosse Teile der älteren Wähler für Hromada gewinnen. Die Kommunisten, die eigentlichen Sieger der Märzwahlen, gewannen in Dnipropetrovs'k 25,5% der Stimmen, weil die wirtschaftliche und soziale Krise nach den starken regionalen Produktionsrückgängen seit 1992 bei der technischen Intelligenz und den einfachen Arbeitern der ehemaligen Gigantenbetriebe zu gravierenden Existenzeinbrüchen führte.

Keberhasilan suatu produk di pasar, didukung beberapa hal penting, diantaranya kemasan. Peran penting kemasan pada sebuah produk yang akan dijual. Selain bisa menambah nilai estetika, desain kemasan juga bisa menarik perhatian sekaligus bahan promosi.Selain itu produk yang sudah memasuki proses kemas biasanya juga bisa bertahan lebih lama serta bisa melindungi produk dari bahaya kerusakan saat proses pendistribusian. Kemasan adalah pembungkus atau wadah yang biasa dimanfaatkan untuk mencegah atau meminimalisasi adanya kerusakan pada barang di dalamnya. Adapun definisi pengemasan adalah suatu proses memberi wadah atau pembungkus untuk suatu produk. Misalnya, melindungi dari sinar matahari secara langsung, kelembaban udara, oksigen, pemcemaran dari virus atau kumas, dan benturan. Pengemasan produk bisa digunakan sebagai media petunjuk bagi konsumen melalu informasi atau tanda yang terdapat pada kemasannya. Berdasarkan pertimbangan itu, Dosen Universitasn Indonesia Timur (UIT) Makassar, yang terdiri dari dosen Fakultas Ekonomi dan Fakultas Ilmu Sosial dan Ilmu Politik, menggelar sosialisasi akan pentingnya mewujudkan kemasan produk yang baik, kepada sejumlah Usaha Kecil Mikro (UKM) di Kota Makassar, dihadiri kurang lebih 15 pelaku usaha.
