    This study uses panel ARDL analysis to investigate the connections between GDP growth, environmental degradation, and public debt in the ASEAN-5 countries (Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore, and Indonesia) from 1996 to 2021. It appears that economic development can increase public debt, but investment can reduce public debt in the long run. Moreover, there is a positive correlation between savings and public debt, but only in the short run. These findings raise important considerations for policymakers in striking a balance between economic development, environmental sustainability, and public debt. This study also suggests that savings may positively affect public debt in Indonesia. In contrast, investment may raise debt in the short term in Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. The possible effects of corruption on public debt in the Philippines and environmental damage in both that country and Thailand are also highlighted. Keeping public debt at a manageable level requires policies that balance economic development and environmental protection, as emphasized by this research.

    Pada masa kini, pengaruh Hallyu ataupun gelombang Korea masih tetap dirasai oleh masyarakat dunia. Ini dapat dibuktikan apabila muzik popular Korea yang dihasilkan oleh ramai penyanyi di Korea telah terbukti berjaya menempa nama sehingga ke peringkat antarabangsa. Antara contoh kejayaan adalah menerusi Lisa daripada anggota kumpulan ‘Blackpink’ yang telah mencetuskan fenomena pada tahun 2021 apabila muzik video ‘Lalisa’ telah dinobatkan sebagai muzik video yang mendapat tontonan paling tinggi dalam masa 24 jam di dunia. Oleh itu, dengan menggunakan sampel terhadap muzik video ‘Lalisa’, kajian ini ingin melihat apakah representasi identiti dan budaya yang telah dipaparkan Lisa dalam muzik video ini dengan menggunakan landasan Teori Norma Budaya daripada Melvin De Fleur (1970). Kajian ini juga telah menggunakan kaedah kualitatif analisis tekstual dan mendapati bahawa, walaupun Lisa merupakan penyanyi yang telah menempa nama di Korea Selatan dan dikenali seluruh dunia, namun identiti dan budaya asalnya sebagai anak kelahiran Thailand tetap dikekalkan dan dipromosikan kepada dunia melalui muzik video ini. Ini sekaligus membuktikan bahawa Lisa bukan sahaja seorang penyanyi yang mempunyai nilai patriotism yang tinggi malah juga mempamerkan imej yang amat baik dengan tidak melupakan asal usul beliau.

    In Malaysia, male employment plays an important role in families as they are breadwinners. However, an increase in international migrants can cause them to be unemployed. Other than that, the number of male employment is higher than the number of female employment. In addition, the number of international migrants also exhibit an increasing trend. This situation has alarmed economists and policymakers. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of international migration on male unemployment in Malaysia from 1982 to 2015. The Autoregressive Distributed Lags (ARDL) technique was employed and the results show that international migrants do not harm the labour force in Malaysia in the long run. This is because Malaysia needs foreign workers in some crucial sectors such as agriculture and construction. However, the results of the causality test reveal that migration can influence male unemployment in the short run. Therefore, it is imperative for policymakers to introduce policies to alleviate the problem of male unemployment, such as controlling the number of permits for foreign workers to work in the sectors that are dominated by local male workers.
