This paper presents the results of empirical tests on the relationship between stock returns and the various measures of risk in the Singapore stock market over the period 1980-85. The findings show that the application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model in Singapore appears weak when weekly data are used. Moreover, there is also no significant relationship between total risk and stock returns or between unsystematic risk and stock returns.

This paper analyses the potential socio-economic impact of HIV disease in the Philippines, with focus on the situation of two vulnerable populations: overseas contract workers and sex workers. The potential impact of HIV disease is examined in the context of recent developments in the Philippines, including the economic recession, widespread poverty and income inequality. The contributions of overseas workers and sex workers are then reviewed, both at the macro- (national) and micro- (household) levels. The impact is examined in terms of lost income, costs of medical care and sociopolitical disruption.
