This paper discusses Malawi’s Fifth and Sixth Reviews Under the Extended Credit Facility (ECF) Arrangement, Request for Waivers for Non-observance of Performance Criteria (PCs), Extension of the Arrangement, Modification of PCs, and Rephasing of Disbursements. Program implementation was uneven given external financing shortfalls with several PCs not being observed. Three out of seven PCs for the fifth review were not met, including the continuous PC on the contracting of nonconcessional external loans. The new authorities are firmly committed to the core policies and objectives of the original ECF-supported program. Program discussions focused on key policy actions to address these challenges and bring the program back on track.

In light of the ongoing restructuring of the Saudi economy, many of the Kingdom's family- owned businesses are contemplating going public. Analyzing thi s current trend is amongst this study's main objectives. The motivations and obsta cles facing family- owned businesses in their decision to go public are discussed. An empirical analysis of the returns realized by Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) on the Saudi Stock Market is also conducted. All studied IPOs are found to have achieved significant abnormal returns during the first month of trading. These returns ar e concentrated in the first week post- IPO. The exceptional performance achieved b y the only family- owned business included in the sample implies such firms' ability t o successfully compete on the Saudi Stock Market. Further research analyzing the performance of Saudi IPOs in general and that of family- owned businesses in par ticular, is necessary for a better understanding of this topic.

Changing Landscapes of Singapore illuminates both the social and the physical terrains of modern Singapore. Geographers use the term landscape to refer to visible surfaces and to the spatial dimension of social relations. Landscapes arise from particular historical circumstances, and in turn help shape social arrangements and possible courses of future development. The authors describe how the settings inhabited by various social groups in Singapore affect life experiences, and explore the impact of broader regional and international forces on Singapore. Written for non-specialists, the volume reflects fresh perspectives from the scholarship of Singaporean academics. Their work is sensitive to historical and geographical trends in the region, and also engages with broader theoretical themes.
