ملا رموزی
دوسراحادثہ ملا رموزی کی وفات کا ہے، ان کا اصل نام احمد صدیق تھا، مگر ادبی دنیا میں ملا رموزی کے نام سے مشہور تھے، بھوپال وطن تھا، اور مدرسہ الٰہیات کانپور میں تعلیم پائی تھی، مگر حصولِ تعلیم کے بعد خالص ادبی زندگی اختیار کی، وہ اردو میں ایک خاص مزاحیہ طرز کے موجد تھے، جس کانام انھوں نے گلابی اردو رکھا تھا، اور جو انہی کے ساتھ ختم ہوگیا، ایک زمانہ میں یہ طرز بہت مقبول تھا، مگر ادھر چند برسوں سے اس کا رنگ پھیکا پڑگیا تھا، اور مرحوم کے قلم میں وہ تازگی اور جولانی باقی نہیں رہ گئی تھی، وفات کے وقت پچاس سے کچھ اوپر عمر رہی ہوگی جو علمی دنیا کے لئے گویا شباب کی عمر ہے، مگر اتنی ہی عمر میں مرحوم نے شہرت و خمول کے سارے مدارج طے کرلیے تھے، اور بالآخر گذشتہ مہینہ زندگی کا آخری مرحلہ بھی طے ہوگیا، والبقاء ﷲ وحدہ۔ (شاہ معین الدین ندوی، فروری ۱۹۵۲ء)
Aim To explore the apparent lack of personal concern for the welfare of others in China? To develop concepts to understand this social phenomena in natural settings using ethnographic and participatory research. Research Question How can the knowledge derived from qualitative research be used to improve the welfare of the poor in Shanghai? Ethics The study was carried out within the guidelines of the declaration of Helsinki. The study was characterised by anonymity, beneficence, non maleficence, and the maintainence of the dignity of participants Method Collection of data. The principle data source was “observation” spot observation”(Baksh 1990)”, participant observation”(Hammersley and Atkinson 1983)vignettes(Finch 1987, Sani Bin Gabi 1990), oral history(narrative) Conclusion The study was conducted ethically. It was a worthwhile study attempted to deal with current problems. The publication of this paper can be used to stimulate further enquiry into the problem of those in need of social welfare in Shanghai and China, in the hope it will improve services where they are needed. Suggested solutions In a country where intergenerational family ties are so strong and “guanxi” exists it is paradoxical there is little empathy for others. Confuscian values, changed family beliefs, and education at school and university may assist in increasing empathy. Learnt conditioning, to ignore or dissociate, from another human being in need of help, can be slowly overcome by implementing universal and improved changes in societal living conditions. This can be achieved by improving social welfare programs, spearheaded by a compassionate government. There is a view that it is an egregious and transparent fiction, to promulgate and publically promote, the philosophies and policies of communism, yet allow these curable social ills to remain. ”Rex ipsa Loquiter”. The healthy should help the sick, the rich should help the poor and the employed should help the unemployed, Proportionately, in accordance with what they have they should give. The promotion of a “ forward thinking, humane, listening and open society, rather than a closed, narrow, opaque, inward looking “weltanschaung” would assist societal reform. We “bystanders”, we must all try to imagine we are in the place of those in need, and feel aas they do, in their situation. We must follow the advice of Mencius (372-289BC) and develop and use “empathy” As Mencius said, ”a developed human heart is the basis of a moral life”
It is a debatable issue that high and variable inflation causes the welfare loss while on the other hand reducing inflation generally has some cost and the amount of that cost is measured by the sacrifice ratio. Therefore inflation output trade - off is important for central banks when formulating policy. Sacrifice ratio is the main indicator to measure the real cost of disinflation, calculated as the ratio of the cumulative percentage output loss (the difference between actual and potential output) to the size of disinflation. Thus, the sacrifice ratio measures the real output cost per unit of permanent decrease in inflation. Sacrifice ratio is basically divided into two main categories: time invariant sacrifice ratio and episode specific sacrifice ratio. In time invariant sacrifice ratio we took Philips Curve, structural VAR and the New Philips Curve and in episode specific ratio we took Ball method of sacrifice ratio and Zhang method of sacrifice ratio .This study covers all these methods in detail and the main objective of this study is to calculate the sacrifice ratio at aggregate level as well at disaggregated level. We disaggregate data into three sectors namely the agriculture sector, the manufacturing sector and the services sector. At aggregate level we found a positive sacrifice ratio in almost all the methods but the magnitude of the sacrifice ratio is not large .At disaggregated level the results validate that different sectors have different nature and the sectors which are less sensitive to monetary policy have less sacrifice ratio and vice versa. Inflation forecasting is the important input in formulating Monterey policy to maintain the price stability and fighting against the inflation evils. Keeping the importance of forecasting, the other objective of this study is to forecast inflation using real time data and end of sample data
