Abstract: Medical tourism is a growing phenomenon with policy implications for health systems, particularly of destination countries. Private actors and governments in Southeast Asia are promoting the medical tourist industry. This article presents a conceptual framework that outlines the policy implications of medical tourism's growth for health systems, drawing on the cases of Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia and other hubs for medical tourism. Variables for further analysis of the potential impact of medical tourism on health systems are also identified. The framework can provide a basis for empirical, in country studies weighing the benefits and disadvantages of medical tourism for health systems. The policy implications described are of particular relevance for policymakers and industry practitioners in other Southeast Asian countries with similar health systems where governments have expressed interest in facilitating the growth of the medical tourist industry. This article calls for a universal definition of medical tourism and medical tourists to be enunciated, as well as concerted data collection efforts, to be undertaken prior to any meaningful empirical analysis of medical tourism's impact on health systems.

Abstract: Employee commitment always plays a very key role in improving the academic performance. Distinguished performing companies perceive that employee commitment is a premier contributing factor toward maintaining continual success and composing value. A committed employee is participative and energized about their work and performs in an aspect that will progress the organization’s interest. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of employee commitment on academic performance of secondary schools in Elgeyo- Marakwet County. The objectives of the study were: to determine the effect of emotional commitment of the headteacher on school’s academic performance, to establish the effect of normative commitment of the headteacher on school’s academic performance, to examine the effect of continual commitment of the headteacher on school’s academic performance. The study adopted a census case design that entailed having all the headteachers of all the secondary schools in Elgeyo-Marakwet County as the respondents. The three constructs of employee commitment i.e. the normative, emotional and continuous commitment were treated as the independent variable while academic performance was the dependent variable. Data was analyzed using SPSS and both descriptive and inferential statistics was used. Regression was used to construct models that were used to determine the nature of the relationships between the variables of interest. All the hypothesized relationships developed were found to be statistically significant at level p < 0.05 i.e. emotional commitment (r = 0.401, p < 0.000), continual commitment (r = 0.410, p < 0.000), normative commitment (r = 0.273, p < 0.000) were correlated to academic performance significantly and positively. all the organizational commitment constructs of emotional commitment, continual commitment, and normative commitment have significant positive relationship with academic performance (emotional commitment: β=.258, p-value= 0.000; continual commitment: β= .137, p-value= 0.020; normative commitment: β= .056, p-value= 0.044). The results of this study will form the framework for policy making on the issue of organizational commitment and academic performance.

Womb on Rent: Surrogacy Tourism in India-Ethical or Commercialpaperpublications3
Abstract: Commercial Surrogacy, which is the act of selling a woman’s ability to give birth to a child with another man strictly for business purposes, is a rapidly growing industry in today’s societies that permit it. It is also an issue that has many moral and ethical implications. It compromises many moral principles and values and therefore raises many questions to consider whether or not commercial surrogacy is moral. Examples of these moral implications include questions such as whether or not it is ethical to put monetary value on the creation of life, how does commercial surrogacy affect women’s rights in countries such as India where we see a particular vast growth in this industry, where women may not necessarily be fully protected by law and may be forced by their families who live in poverty to perform this act for financial necessity. Due to the fact that this is a very modern, as well as rapidly growing issue, it is very important to discuss and raise awareness that it is a very real issue that creates a lot of moral dilemma so that it can be changed and perhaps banned in countries that currently allow it, if deemed immoral. To examine this issue, the situation of commercial surrogacy in India, which has grown into a multibillion dollar industry and is therefore, deemed the worldwide capital of surrogacy. The statistics such as the projected net worth of commercial surrogacy as an industry in 2012 will be analysed as well as different things such as families in India who have experienced commercial surrogacy. The Law Commission of India has submitted the 228th Report on "Need for Legislation to Regulate Assisted Reproductive Technology Clinics as Well as Rights and Obligations of Parties to a Surrogacy."

Quality-Driven Logistics: Reverse Logistics Process Reengineering, Improving ...paperpublications3
Abstract: To succeed in the modern global economy, it is critical to build a Logistics network that is information-rich, highly flexible, cost effective, and defined by both customer needs and internal corporate strategy. Organizations must constantly reinvent the Logistics network to allow business growth and change. Yet, the superiority in Logistics operations is anything but enough to achieve competitive advantage. The proper handling of Reverse Logistics is currently perceived as the leading distinction edge among organizations. From another perspective, high operational efficiency is dependent on quick, accurate, and continuous exchange of information within an organization. Such ability is achieved through the use of modern Information Technology and computer automation. As organizations cannot move into the highly competitive environment by adapting old management methods, Process Reengineering might be the solution. In this research, the concepts of Reverse Logistics, Information Technology, and Process Reengineering are spotlighted. A reengineering of the current maintenance process of a major Egyptian Healthcare Medical Equipment Provider is proposed in order to enhance the Customer Service Quality and the Operational Efficiency. Computer simulation modeling is used to evaluate the proposed model.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Abstract: India, a country which is known for its textile manufacturing and handlooms, since the early times; and
this is revealed by literary and archaeological evidences. India’s textiles manufacturing sector is one of the pillar of
the national economy. Government of India has taken many steps to create a brand of Indian textile in the global
arena. All the exporters are been provided with various different promotion council to promote their items. For
each item there is an export council and for textile it is TEXPROCIL (The Cotton Textiles Export Promotion
Council). “ By not just pulling away the protectionist measures, but also by enhancing business sector access,
avoiding policies which distort competition & also to agree on reforms to world trade regulations; with the help of
these council there can be boost in trade and also seize the opportunities that it offers for everyone, in the years to
come”. Undoubtedly the coin has two phases similarly, the councils has some failing points also. The drawbacks of
the council have leaded the exports to battle with various problems in promoting their products. The problems are
been stated below.
Keywords: Export, Handlooms & Manufacturing, Problems, Textile sector, TEXPROCIL.
I. INTRODUCTION
The present study is an attempt to analyse the problems faced by members of The Cotton Textiles Export Promotion
Council (Texprocil). The study is expected to reveal the deficiencies of the promotion council, and enable to suggest
appropriate measures for the problems of the council, and thereby serve the interest of exporters effectively.
For a business to run smoothly there requires more of simplification of the procedures .The export councils are still
struggling with the problem of documentation due to which the exports get delayed after which they have to bear huge
cost. Still, there are Members striving with the “Ease of Doing Business” & “Simplification of Procedures”. Complicating
the issue with the exporters who file applications online for 2% additional duty credit scrips under the Market Linked
Focus Product Scheme (MLFPS). The council do not provide the export benefits are not provided to the home textiles.
The terminal handling charges and the import cargos by the shipping lines is not abolished by the council and the
exporters are charged during exports and imports. Being in such developed scenario, planning along with the proper focus
for increasing exports are lacking behind. Running on the drawback track, the development in infrastructure is really
slow. The textile exporters face delay in exporting the goods to Bangladesh as they have struggle with the issue of parking
at Bongaon due to which they have to bear with heavy penalties which raises their cost of items which lead the exporters
to incur loss their business.
There are certain standards been setup by the various council for different products but the council is still not being able
to set SION (Standard Input output Norms) for new technology of fabrics & garments due to this the quality is not been
accepted by customer & the exporters are losing their contracts .If see the biggest market for Indian exporters they are

II. TEXTILE CURRENT SCENARIO
When we flip the coin to the history of the textile sector, there has been a major change since then and now. Globally also
there is lot more importance been given to the textile sector. The output that textile & apparel sector provides is the basic
requirement for livelihood & the long term growth of the textile sector has always shown the positive increase. In Indian
economy, the textile and apparel industry is the major leading segment and also it contributes the maximum in the foreign
exchange earnings. Comparing the WTO data-2012, the country India has been ranked on 9th
slot as the largest exporter in
terms of global exports of clothing. The textile and apparel industries of India create employment of 38million people and
also this sector accounts 12% share of the total business basket. India‟s textile industries are enough capable of exports
that it does not have to depend on its imports. . This industry contributes of 4 percent of the gross domestic product
(GDP), a bit more than 30 percent and 20 percent of industrial output of export earnings.
If we see the Indian textile and garments industries they not only contribute to the growth of the country's economy or
GDP but also generate employment, output of the industries and the earnings by the exporters. To be accurate, this can be
shown in data wise too, i.e. this sector creates 5% to the $1.8 trillion to the Indian economy. Reasons why India lack
behind from other countries are-
1. Small manufacturers & exporters fail to update their Upcoming Technology due to which they have to bear heavy lab
our cost.
2. Quality of raw materials as well as finished goods maintained with standards norms.
3. Amount of investment done by the individual, government policies regarding investment in that particular industry
etc.
4. Problems relating to Logistics & operations & various other problems also.
Thus structural changes are requirement of the hour then only India textile industry can contribute more in the GDP &
help in decreasing trade deficit by increasing the export of textile. To increase the world shares of textile from India, the
government needs to take a stand and help the exporters in competing from the rest of the world.

By the nominal export growth in the fiscal year 2014-15 we can predict high potential of the industry to grow at higher
levels. The low rate of growth in fiscal 2014-15 can be attributed to the China factor, deflationary trends in global
markets, unequal international setting on account of preferential access given to competing countries and rising cost of
inputs and raw materials compounded by severe pressure on prices.
The Economic Survey 2014-15, proves that the contribution of the Textile and Clothing sectors helps in strengthening the
manufacturing sector, increasing exports and lessening unemployment.

commodity are increasing & numbers are increasing for the poverty line as people don‟t have anything to eat, get a shelter
get their basic needs these all factor also affect the textile industry also. Production is oversupplied whereas demand is
relatively down both in international market & national market. The exporters reported in reduce in demand by the
international buyers due to no proper standards & also because of political instability running in the nation. Downward
movement of the supply curve leads to cut down the unemployment rate which affects the living standard of peoples.

VII. RECOMMENDATIONS
Coming down to the recommendations part, India is an emerging economy which can take certain benefits from the
resources they own. And also with co-ordination & co-operations of various other parties like government which play
major role in developing the country, various banks & financial institutions by funding them , many promotion council
can work together and guide the exporters‟ with their drawbacks & boost them to work according to standards norms.
There are certain recommendations for the textile industry –
There should be Zero taxation on all import of machinery used for production textile goods which is currently 7.5%
it includes Landing charges ,Countervailing duty , Education & Higher Education CESS,etc. & also there should be
reduction of tariff.
If we talk about the infrastructure then the government authorities needs to take lot of efforts in building world class
infrastructure in terms of port & inland transportation, power & communication sector within the nation. Due to lack in
infrastructure China which is an export oriented country which takes the benefit of enjoying approx. 37% advantage
overall from India in shipping garments due to delays & inefficiencies at the Indian ports.
For adding on the higher value to decrease the trade deficit government should take steps to create a geographical
location where all the manufactures related in the production of textile should be clubbed together so, that there is also a

reduction in cost as cost related to the transportation of raw materials will be reduced leading to more chances of profit. It
should cover all the activities from the very beginning i.e. Raw material, spinning of the yarn , weaving, processing &
also with the testing labs & many more.
If we look at the government policies in respect to this particular sector then there are restrictions which affect the
growth of textile sector. Only the small scale manufactures are been reserved for this entire industry no big manufacturing
unit are been permitted to operate in this industry thus this reservation leads to no expansion of the technology as lack of.
This factor pushes back the industry for attainting its position in the market. Therefore big manufacturing units should
also be given rights to run textile manufacturing house.
For completion of the whole transitions there requires lot many permission from various bodies from the nations i.e.
origin country to destination country and if we see the condition in India then all the procedures are unmanageable which
take a lot of time. For instance getting duty free advance license for export production it takes about 5 months if we see
for an average of 35 exporters then it is approx. 7 months in getting the same. Therefore more manageable policies should
be framed by the government bodies which incur less time and save more of cost.
Indian as emerging markets have great potential in the textile sectors but due to certain problems the sector is not able
develops. Above given recommendations will help to provide certain kind of help to the sector & also as the current
government is focusing more on the campaign launched by them “Make in India” which will boost up the manufacturing
sector which include the textile sector as well.
VIII. CONCLUSION
India where Textile is a major contributor in the growth of GDP but due to certain drawbacks the sector is on the fall .To
promote the textile sector the Government of India has taken various steps one of which include Setting up of different
textile promotion council , in which one is TEXPROCIL. For the improvements of the textile sector the Indian
government can charge zero taxation and even reduce the tariffs on the import of any kind of machinery which will prove
to be beneficial for the Indian textile sector. The government should help the manufacturers in setting up their production
unit in such a location where there is easy availability of the resources so that the transportation cost can be decreased and
hence the profit can be increased. The procedures involved in the entire process need a lot of permission from various
authorities like for example the country of origin or the final destination, a lot of time is wasted in taking such permissions
so the government should frame such policies which help in time and cost saving.
