The leading causes behind medico-legal claims and the use of mediation as a possible solution
Authors: Prinsen Larisse , Muller Errol Cedric
Published: March 2024

Medico-legal claims in the South African health sector have noticeably increased since approximately 2007. This is significant as money spent from the public health budget on these claims is money which ought to have been spent on other healthcare priorities. As such, it becomes vital to understand why these claims have shown such drastic increases and what could be done to stem the rising tide. This article addresses two main themes: first, it explains the various causes for increased claims related to the medical field and broader possible solutions to this problem; secondly, mediation is proffered as a viable means of negating the negative impact of these claims on the health sector and budget. The conventional method of resolving medico-legal disputes is through adversarial court litigation. Litigation is expensive, time-consuming, complex and emotionally taxing, and the eventual outcome often fails to satisfy the needs of the litigants. Conventional civil dispute resolution exhibits little appreciation for, or consideration of, alternative and better-suited dispute resolution techniques and mechanisms. In this article we argue that mediation offers a viable alternative to resolve medico-legal issues. In essence, mediation is third-party (mediator) facilitated dispute resolution through negotiation. The process is less expensive, less time-consuming, uncomplicated, and party-oriented. In addition, it has the potential to enhance access to justice. However, to achieve this will require a change in legal culture.
“Fit and proper” judges and free speech: A critical reflection
Authors: Moosa Fareed
Published: March 2024

Against the backdrop of the silence by apartheid-era judges who refused to speak out against the inhumanity of apartheid, resulting in egregious human rights violations, this article explores what it means to be a “fit and proper” judge as envisaged by section 174(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 read with the Judicial Service Commission Act 9 of 1994 and the Code of Judicial Conduct GN R 865 in GG 35802 of 18-10-2012 (“the Code”). The argument is that, in this context, the meaning of “fit and proper” has far greater depth and breadth than the same normative standard contemplated by the Legal Practice Act 28 of 2014 for lawyers as officers of the court. A “fit and proper” judge is a person with more than just absolute integrity, impeccable honesty, a high degree of professionalism, and unflinching incorruptibility. A judge is also a person who, at all times, scrupulously obeys the Constitution and its dictates, strictly respects the law and abides by the rule of law, always advances human rights and constitutional values, and faithfully discharges all duties embraced by the oath of judicial office and does so with courage. This article argues that South Africa can only take its rightful place in the family of nations if its judges, through their extra-judicial words and deeds, help shape South African society, and others where needed. The Constitution and the oath of judicial office oblige judges to, inter alia, denounce apartheid in any of its current-day incarnations, and advocate for legal orders moulded by democratic values, human rights, freedom, equality, rule of law, and justice for all. A culture of judicial silence in the face of injustice and human rights violations, whether perpetrated on foreign or domestic soil, is an abdication of judicial responsibility and antithetical to the ethos underpinning the transformative notion of a “fit and proper” judge under the Constitution. This article reminds judges that while duties arising from the Constitution and their oath of office rank supreme over any in the Code, they are to be delicately balanced. Extra-curial speech must respect the separation of powers and not undermine the judiciary’s standing, integrity and independence.

Authors: Billah Maruf , Rahmat Nur Ezan , Hassan Che Audah , Kabir Md. Shahin
Published: March 2024

Bangladesh War Crimes Tribunal-a domestic criminal court is currently prosecuting the offenders of atrocious crimes perpetrated in the Bangladesh War of Independence in 1971. Though the atrocious offenses took place in 1971, the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) Act 1973 was decreed by Bangladeshi Parliament in 1973, and the Tribunal was established in 2010; hence the ICT Act 1973 is considered as an ex post facto (retrospective) legislation because it has been promulgated after the commission of the crimes. Therefore, this study first analyzes the importance of ex post facto law’s prohibition in customary international law. Secondly, the study highlights how the 1973 ICT Act applies to prosecute the ICTB’s defendants retrospectively by amending the constitution of Bangladesh. Thirdly, it examines the ex post facto legislation’s application in the Bangladesh Tribunal and the issue of constitutionality because rules on the prohibition of retrospective legislation is one of the fundamental rights of every citizen that need to be safeguarded by every constitution of civilized nations. Lastly, this study's originality proves that ex post facto law’s application in the ICTB is unconstitutional. Then, this research paper concludes by inferring that the government of Bangladesh needs to amend the constitution to prohibit the ex post facto law’s implementation through the Tribunal that will enhance the legal acceptability of the War Crimes Court because the recent Criminal Court in question is operating under the Bangladeshi government.

Factors Influencing Forest Dependency on the Gola Rainforest Reserve in Sierra Leone
Authors: Samura Philip
Published: March 2024

Purpose: Forests are under intense human pressure due to a high level of dependency. Understanding socioeconomic and demographic incentives surrounding forest dependence is critical to mitigating the adverse impacts of forest degradation in Africa. Therefore, this study examines the factors promoting household forest dependence in Sierra Leone's Gola Rainforest Reserve through four research questions: (1) What is the contribution of forest income relative to total household income? (2) What are the key sources of relative forest income? (3) How do gender, age, and education influence forest dependency? (4) What factors drive dependence on forest resources?

Methodology: The study's target population was rural households living near the Gola Rainforest Reserve in Gaura and Tunkia Chiefdoms in the Kenema district. The study used convenience sampling. A questionnaire and an interview guide were used for data collection. It drew from 101 survey responses analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, binary logistic regression on S.P.S.S., and then —seven expert interviews and three focus group discussions explored with thematic analysis on Google Docs. The study used tables and figures for data presentation.

Findings: The study's results showed four key findings. First, forest income accounts for 46% of monthly household income in the sampled community. Second, the top five sources of forest income are cocoa (74%), moringa tea (9%), timber wood (4%), forest spices (4%), and forest fruit and vegetables (3%). Third, age, education, and gender influence forest dependence. Fourth, livelihood and direct consumption are the key factors driving dependence on forest resources. Therefore, the study recommended that decision-makers and conservationists consider socioeconomic factors like gender, age, education, and livelihood when designing forest management projects, strategies, or policies.  

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice, and Policy: The study’s outcome contributes to the growing literature on forest dependency. It provides key insights into the significant contribution of forest resources to household income. Analyzing the influence of socio-demographic factors, like gender, age, and education, on forest resources enhances the understanding of resource-use patterns. This study allows forest conservationists, government decision-makers, and academics to develop projects, policies, and strategies from an informed perspective, considering socio-economic realities, to promote sustainable forest management practices in Sierra Leone and other developing countries to mitigate deforestation.
Simulating Chromatic Harmony in Romantic Era Music using Diophantine Approximation
Authors: Ouyang Larine
Published: March 2024

The Romantic period of music is known for its intricate and emotionally expressive harmonic style. Nevertheless, recreating authentic melodies of the Romantic period in contemporary compositions poses a considerable challenge for composers and musicians. In this paper, we present a method for simulating chromatic harmony in Romantic Era music through the use of Diophantine Approximation. Inspired by the works of renowned composers of that period, such as Richard Wagner, Franz, Liszt, and Frederic Chopin, my transitional model was constructed to preserve the essence of the preceding melody as the harmonic progression unfolds. The model helps with the creation of harmonic progressions that contain the nuances of the preceding harmonic structure and musical style, providing composers with a novel way to explore a wide range of musical possibilities. Experimental validation involving human hearing shows that the model is successful in imitating authentic Romantic-era harmonic structures. This finding suggests that the model is a promising tool that could inspire contemporary composers to create almost authentic chromatic harmonic progressions.

In this study, we developed a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor using a porous graphene electrode modified with ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO/fPGE sensor) to determine xanthine (XA) content. The ZnO/fPGE sensor is fabricated using a hydrothermal method and CO2 infrared laser writing technique on a polyimide film. The morphology, structure, and properties of the ZnO/fPGE were meticulously characterized using Raman spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Von-Ampe spectroscopy methods. The ZnO/fPGE sensor exhibited a broad linear response range from 1 µM to 100 µM, a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.29 µM, high sensitivity at 7.05 µA.µM⁻¹.cm⁻², and demonstrated effective resistance to common interferences such as uric acid, ascorbic acid, dopamine, glucose, and xanthine. Notably, the ZnO/fPGE sensor has created a conducive electrical environment for the advancement of high-performance electrochemical biosensors, specifically for the precise determination of xanthine levels in meat and fish products.

The cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at 65 bottled drink water product production facilities in Dak Lak province in 2023. The objectives were to determine the prevalence of bacterial contamination in bottled drinking water products at some production facilities in Dak Lak province and analyze related factors. The results indicated that 42/65 (64,0%) of samples did not meet the bacterial requirements according to QCVN 6-1:2010/BYT. Unsatisfactory bacterial criteria included Coliform (50.5%), P. aeruginosa (50.5%), and Clostridia (4.6%). All samples were not detected for E. coli and Streptococci feacal. The main factors influencing bacterial contamination of bottled drinking water were the layout design of the production area; factory structure, means of washing and disinfecting hands, sanitary conditions of the jar, practice of personal hygiene, practice cleaning the jar, and practice of packaging the products.

Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and some other bacterial strains such as C. butyricum and C. baratii. It is considered the strongest toxin known to humans and can cause botulism. Botulinum neurotoxin can be fatal in humans and most botulism cases are caused by type A and B toxins. In this study, the research team used C. botulinum strains isolated from botulism poisoning cases in Vietnam, which were identified to produce type A and B toxins, from which we successfully transformed plasmids carrying genes specific for BoNT type A and type B genes based on the reference gene sequence according to TCVN 11395:2016. These plasmids were successfully used as template DNA for PCR reactions. In the PCR reaction, plasmids used to transform genes producing botulinum toxin types A and B have a detection limit of 102 copies/µL. The study has fully verified the validation parameters, with 100% accuracy and specificity.

Poisoning of traditional foods such as cakes, candies, jams... prepared by manual methods is increasing. Among them, the current situation of equipment and facilities at Siu Chau candy production facilities still exists and there are many potential risks of causing food poisoning to users. This study conducted an assessment of facility conditions and physical equipment to ensure food safety at 50 Siu Chau candy production facilities in Nam Dinh province in 2023. Research results show that geographical criteria scores and environment scores all reached over 70%, however only 28% of facilities were designed according to one-way principles. The criteria for collecting and treating waste outside the production area and not causing pollution to the preliminary processing and processing area reached a high rate of 96.0%. Over 95% of raw materials, processing aids, and food additives have clear origins, are not expired, and are allowed to be used. 94% of establishments have enough equipment and tools for food production and processing and comply with regulations. 80% of establishments have raw materials and finished products packaged and stored on sturdy, hygienic shelves. Most of the facilities and equipment conditions are guaranteed according to regulations, however, there are still some low standards that need to be upgraded and maintained in terms of factory design; Toilet conditions, human conditions, and packaging hygiene.

Penelitian ini ingin melihat bagaimana kebijakan tentang penerapan Kartu Pintar BBM dalam mengendalian penjualan BBM (solar) bersubsidi di wilayah Provinsi Kepulauan Bangka Belitung dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Data diperoleh dengan melakukan wawancara kepada nara sumber baik di lapangan (SPBU) maupun para pejabat yang terlibat dalam kebijakan dan menganalisa data dari sumber dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian dengan menggunakan pendekatan konsep Empat Tepat dalam Kebijakan (Dwijowjoto:2003) memperlihatkan bahwa semua unsur untuk menghasilkan kebijakan efektif tidak terpenuhi yaitu mulai dari factor kebijakan, factor pelaksana, factor target kebijakan, sampai ke factor lingkungan kebijakan. Rekomendasi yangdiberikan ialah dengan membatasi ruang gerak kendaraan yang digunakan dengan menerapkan aturan tentang kelaikan jalan kendaraan; pembatasan jumlah BBM subsidi yang dapat dibeli; penegakan sanksi yang menimbulkan efek jera; serta adakan seyembara untuk yang dapat membuktikan adanya kecurangan dalam pembelian BBM subsidi.

Positivisme merupakan aliran filsafat yang dipelopori oleh Filosof Perancis yang bernama Auguste Comte Positivisme hanya mempercayai fakta yang dapat diregistrasi secara inderawi yang dijadikan objek ilmu pengetahuan. Fakta tersebut dapat ditinjau dan diuji dan setelah itu barulah kemudian dijadikan landasan pengetahuan Positiviseme Logis dikaitkan dengan pandangan mengenai ilmu pengetahuan yang memiliki 2 tradisi filsafat yaitu Emirisme-Positivisme Empirisme adalah aliran filsafat yang menekankan bahwa pengalaman indrawimerupakan satu-satunya sumber pengetahuan. Pandangan ini sama dengan positivisme yang menekankan aspek kebebasan manusia untuk memperlakukan apa yang diindrainya sebagai kenyataan dan sumber satu-satunya dari pengetahuan ilmiah. Logika adalah bahasa formal yang dapat digunakan untuk menjelaskan kenyataan menurut model-model matematis sehingga menjadi pengetahuan yang jelas, pasti, dan benar. Kendati positivisme logis mengintegrasikan empirisme positivisme dan logika, aliran positivisme logis tidak bisa dipahami sebagai salah satu dari tiga pandangan
