    This research addresses the common issue of vulnerabilities emerging during construction projects due to inadequate risk identification and analysis. It aims to mitigate this by creating a comprehensive risk register, documenting potential risk events, their causes, and characteristics. The main goal is to identify prominent risk factors in building construction projects and develop a risk management strategy using this register. The study used purposive sampling and considered 22 indicators, including human resources, cost, materials, equipment, and environmental conditions. Questionnaires were distributed to 50 contractors in the Banda Aceh region. Validity and reliability were confirmed through statistical analysis. The analysis showed that human resources were the most prevalent risk factor. Using a probability impact matrix, five indicators had medium-risk levels, while seventeen indicated low risk. Human resources, materials and equipment, and environmental conditions were identified as dominant risk factors, all at a medium-risk level. The study underscores the importance of addressing human resources risks through a structured risk register, which can significantly improve project management and execution. By systematically assessing and mitigating potential risks, project stakeholders can make informed decisions and enhance project outcomes in terms of timelines, costs, and quality. In conclusion, this research highlights the critical role of risk management in construction projects and emphasizes the value of a comprehensive risk register. Addressing dominant risks proactively can positively impact building construction projects.

    Foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows are used to address the economic problems, such as poverty and tourism growth. This paper has identified, after visualizing theoretical standpoints and empirical researches, that there is the linkage between FDI inflows and poverty-GDP nexus focusing on tourism sector. Contrasting with previous studies, this study not only observed the degree of the association between FDI in tourism sector (FDIT) and poverty (POV) but also investigated the relationship between FDIT and tourism growth (TG). While the amount of literature on FDIT, TG and POV using panel data and for singular countries has increased in the last few years, no research has identified the relationships among FDIT, TG and POV together using a growth framework and a simultaneous equation model. The end discussions show that FDIT has bidirectional causal relationships with TG and POV. Therefore, reviewing this chapter it gets confirmed that the research gap prevails in this particular area, that is, neither do a research conducted for evaluation of FDI inflows in tourism impact on poverty and GDP. Thus, in the light of suggestion of theories and empirical literature, this chapter paves the ground of building up a conceptual framework that is to describe the directions in recognizing how FDI inflows in tourism can reduce poverty and stimulate the economic growth and tourism growth.

    Malaysia have many cultural heritage sites that become attractions for the development of tourism and technology. This study aims to determine whether tax, exchange rate, unemployment rate, and energy use in Malaysia could affect the tourism sector. Although gross domestic product (GDP) could be used to replace human development in monitoring economic progress and human well-being in relation to tourism, this definition is narrow and focuses on the economic side, and ignores social and cultural factors. The results show that the known relationship could act as a guide for policymakers in achieving greater social and cultural development in order to encourage growth. The methodology employed in this study appears to be very useful for policymakers in developing new approaches to improving the various factors influencing Malaysia's regional and global tourism industry demand for the upcoming Visit Malaysia Year 2020. In addition, the study provided well-considered policies to increase long-term improvements in the tourism, exchange rate, and service sectors through effective resource management and intelligent resource usage in the tourism industry.

    The purpose of this study is to examine empirically the effect of government spending on healthcare systems on malaysia's economic growth during the early stages of the Covid 19 epidemic. Even as society became aware of the potential dangers of Covid 19, there has been a massive effort to rapidly increase capacity in the healthcare system. In Malaysia, in addition to emphasising the importance of strict adherence to the Movement Control Order (MCO), the government announced an immediate increase in funding for healthcare services as part of the initial phase fiscal policy reply to the Covid 19 outbreak. This study employed Dynamic Panel Data, also identified as a longitudinal study, and collected data over a four-month period, from December 2019 to March 2020, in five Asian countries involved with Covid 19. This study discovered that the Dynamic Panel Data System GMM Estimation model is suitable for interpreting the results, indicating that government expenditure on Covid-19 (p-value = 0.036), unemployment rate and inflation rate have a significant relationship with healthcare sector growth of 1%, 2%, and 5%, respectively. In terms of limitations, such a study only focuses on four months of data from selected Asia countries participating in Covid-19. The findings of panel causality recommend that there are bidirectional links between healthcare sector growth and government spending. Empirical findings suggest that fiscal policy reforms are required to channel healthcare industry growth to increased government spending as a result of Malaysia's fiscal policy.

    Recently, growth and development studies have started to focus on the importance of improving institutions of governance through government effectiveness on economic growth. Foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows are used to address the economic problems, such as government effectiveness and tourism growth. This paper has identified, after visualizing theoretical standpoints and empirical researches, that there is the linkage between FDI inflows and government effectiveness-GDP nexus focusing on tourism sector. Contrasting with previous studies, this study not only observed the degree of the association between FDI in tourism sector (FDIT) and government effectiveness (GOV) but also investigated the relationship between FDIT and tourism growth (TG). While the amount of literature on FDIT, TG and GOV using panel data and for singular countries has increased in the last few years, no research has identified the relationships among FDIT, TG and GOV together using a growth framework and a simultaneous equation model. The end discussions show that FDIT has bidirectional causal relationships with TG and GOV. Therefore, reviewing this chapter it gets confirmed that the research gap prevails in this particular area, that is, neither do a research conducted for evaluation of FDI inflows in tourism impact on government effectiveness and GDP.

    The current situation is not favorable for the stellar opening of tourism destinations. Travel and tourism losses are limited to the few people and tourists to the local community; many dependents affect the current crises. That will lead many parts of the world to find alternative options for the tourism industry's survival. Technological development is significantly inspiring many fields and commercial sectors within the COVID-19 outbreak. Research on the use of digital technologies in tourism is now established as an academic field, and the number and quality of publications are increasing rapidly. This trend is also noticeable in the global healthcare concerns after the COVID-19 pandemic, where the technology market is expected to expand. In the tourism industry, digital tourism documentation contributes to the development of destinations. The virtual environment encourages consumers to visit the destination. In addition, the second category of literature involves research related to virtual reality. The virtual environment has technically changed the configuration of the entire industry, and the world is very interesting. The virtual environment purely dominates the world of games, movies, and multimedia-related industries. In recent years, consumer perception behavior has been primarily affected by virtual reality. However, the tourism industry also pointed out in the literature that the development of tourism behavior through digital tourism is mainly cultural and heritage tourism. The results of the survey mainly deal with the motivating factors for the use of digital technology in the environment related to the development of tourism. Furthermore, research related to virtual reality emphasizes experimental research and few articles involve exploratory research.
