This paper analyzes the characteristics and influence mechanisms of financial support for China’s strategic emerging industries. Using a sample of 356 listed companies across nine major industries, we conduct an in-depth analysis of the efficiency of financial support and its influencing factors. In addition, this paper analyzes the influence mechanism of financial support for strategic emerging industries based on the relevant theory of financial support for industry development. It clarifies the internal and external influencing factors. Based on the theoretical analysis, a two-stage empirical investigation was conducted: The data of 356 listed companies in strategic emerging industries from 2010 to 2022 were selected as a sample, and the data envelopment analysis (DEA) method was applied to measure efficiency. The influencing factors were then analyzed using a Tobit regression and an intermediate effects test.

Illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing (IUU fishing) crimes by rogue fisheries companies are rife in the sea waters of Riau Province. However, this issue is rarely reported by those provincial journalists in the online media where they work. In fact, in Riau, there are 163 online media companies and 600 competent journalists; 200 of them live in capture fisheries center areas. Apart from the journalist competency factor, the decision to make IUU fishing news can also be influenced by the fisheries company intervention that committed the crime. Besides, the policy role of media leaders—editors, editors-in-chief, and media owners—also determines journalists’ decisions to make those news stories. This research aims to analyze the influence of journalist competence and fishing company intervention on the decision to make IUU fishing news, as well as the role of media leader policy as mediators in these influences. This survey involved 100 competent journalists as respondents. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire containing a number of closed statements measured on a 5-point Likert scale, which was distributed to respondents. The data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method. The research results show that the fishing company intervention has a negative and significant influence on the decision to make IUU fishing news in Riau, while journalist competence does not. Additionally, media leader policy was found to play a significant role in mediating the influence of fisheries company intervention and journalist competence on the decision to make IUU fishing news. The leader policy could prevent journalists from making IUU fishing news if fisheries companies, who are responsible for those crimes, intervene and request it. Those actions of media leaders need to be questioned because they can hamper the media’s function as a means of disseminating information, educating the public, and implementing social control, especially those related to combating IUU fishing crimes.

Every sector must possess the ability to identify potential dangers, assess associated risks, and mitigate them to a controllable extent. The mining industry inherently faces significant hazards due to the intricate nature of its systems, processes, and procedures. Effective risk control management and hazard assessment are essential to identify potential adverse events that might lead to hazards, analyze the processes by which these occurrences may transpire, and estimate the extent, importance, and likelihood of negative consequences. (1) The stage of industrial hazard analysis assesses the capability of a risk assessment process by acknowledging that hidden hazards have the potential to generate dangers that are both unknown and beyond control. (2) To mitigate hazards in mines, it is imperative to identify and assess all potentially dangerous circumstances. (3) Upon conducting an analysis and evaluation of the safety risks associated with identified hazards, the acquired knowledge has the potential to assist mine management in making more informed and effective decisions. (4) Frequently employed methods of data collection include interrogation of victims/witnesses and collection of information directly from the accident site. (5) After conducting a thorough analysis and evaluation of the safety hazards associated with hazard identification, the dataset has the potential to assist mine management in making more informed decisions. The study highlights the critical role of management in promoting a strong safety culture and the need for active participation in health and safety systems. By addressing both feared and unknown risks, educating workers, and utilizing safety-related data more effectively, mining companies can significantly improve their risk management strategies and ensure a safer working environment.

Organizations are gradually focusing on creating a healthy workplace for their employees and becoming more people-centric. This occurs because a healthy workforce increases the work performance of the organisation and the personal development of its employees. This study aims to investigate the HR functions that impact employee motivation in the Malaysian banking sector. The three HR functions that were selected were training and development, rewards and recognition, and career management. The study utilised a cross-sectional design, and the research instruments were adapted from a number of past studies. A total of 350 respondents from the Malaysian banking industry were recruited. Using SPSS Version 26.0, the research hypotheses were examined. The results show that rewards and recognition are not significant predictors of employee motivation in the Malaysian banking industry; however, training and development and career management are significant predictors of employee motivation. These results will help the human resources department develop and improve its HR operations.
