Green economy in the ASEAN countries: case of Indonesia
Abstract
The article shows the main directions of development of the "green" economy in the countries of the Association of Southeast Asian countries (ASEAN). All 10 ASEAN countries — Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam — are examples of fast-growing economies in developing countries. This growth has a serious and negative impact on the environment, which, in turn, requires countries to make concrete and consistent efforts towards a green economy. The "green" economy is not just a "fashion trend", it is one of the most important and extremely responsible long-term tasks, both for this group of countries and for the whole world.
Methodological foundations of the effective use of remote sensing technologies in Russia
Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the methodological foundations of the effective use of remote sensing technologies from one of the most promising directions of the digital transformation of the economy in different countries in the form of an information management system adapted to the daily activities of organizations, the widespread integration of disparate data into a single system. A significant amount of shared information is put forward by a number of basic methodological conditions inherent in the digital economy - the requirement to integrate information resources on the basis of an integrated approach and some developed digital standards in compliance with the established proportions of the main assets of manufacturing enterprises in the modern economy. So, a mathematical model of designing an optimal digital platform for remote sensing of the Earth is proposed. The analysis of the results of the formation of this digital platform is performed.
Mathematical modeling of the economic effect of the application of precision farming technologies (at the macro level)
Abstract
The article discusses the trends in the digital transformation of agriculture towards the precision production of industry products, embodied in precision farming technologies based on the Earth’s remote sensing data. It is shown that these technologies are currently evolving from the digitalization of separate operations to the digitalization of an interconnected complex of them based on the integration of all operations, including operations of related industries. The analysis of the problems of the effective implementation of digital technologies in Russia, as well as the ways to solve them based on integrated integration technologies is given. The authors present a mathematical model of the economic effect of the application of precision farming technologies based on the Earth’s remote sensing data, which has become one of the main drivers of the rapid development of agriculture around the world. Possible options for the usage of this model with the aim of a science-based approach to the development of these technologies in the country are discussed.
Bangladesh Foreign Trade - Modern Trends
Abstract
In the modern world economy, the presence of developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America is actively growing. Many of them are increasing their share in world production and, on this basis, in international trade and capital migration processes. Asian economies are growing especially actively. One such country is Bangladesh, whose economic development increased markedly in the last decade of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
The article presents an analysis of the main indicators of the activity of the foreign trade sector of the Republic of Bangladesh in 2010-2018. The author shows that based on the gradual transformation of the structure of the national economy and the transition from the agrarian to the agrarian-industrial model, the active transformation of the structure - both commodity and geographical - of Bangladesh's foreign trade, its exports and imports, intensifies the role of the country as a component of world economic processes. A brief overview of Russian-Bangladeshi bilateral trade in 2000-2018 was also given.
Economic development of the Republic of Tajikistan and the role of free economic zones
Abstract
The article analyzes the current socio-economic situation of the Republic of Tajikistan. The author shows the unevenness of this development in the XXI century and the main problems – the low level of per capita income and skills, non-diversified economy, high dependence on the external factor and the need to protect national economic security in these conditions. However, high and steady GDP growth indicates the presence of serious potential and hidden opportunities for the development of the economy of Tajikistan in the future. Free economic zones of the Republic of Tajikistan make a significant contribution to this process. The analysis uses statistical data from UNCTAD, as well as data from the Ministry of economic development and trade of the Republic of Tajikistan.
Features of the current socio-economic situation of the Republic of Madagascar
Abstract
The article analyzes the current level of economic development of the Democratic Republic of Madagascar. It is shown that the country remains one of the poorest economies in Africa. However, we consider the growing population as a factor in the growth of the national economy in the future. The article shows that at present, the economy of Madagascar retains its traditional structure, and agriculture remains the leading segment. However, the authors found that there is growth in the industry and in the service sector, which, of course, will be of great importance for the country in the future.
The external debt of the Republic of Tajikistan: dynamics, features, tasks
Abstract
The article analyzes the problems of external debt of the Republic of Tajikistan. It is shown that the growing external debt is one of the main problems of Tajikistan, which was formed in the 1990s in the conditions of aggravation of the country's economic and political difficulties. However, even in the context of GDP growth, the external debt is also growing, which worsens the situation in the sphere of economic security of the country. The author suggests ways to solve this problem.
