This prohibition of movement and mass assembly would include all the activities such as religious, sports, social, cultural and business activities except for essential services. The MCO of course, will affect researchers and their projects as well.

A literature review is a critical summary of all the published works on a particular topic.

Four main areas were covered – regulatory regimes, tax and fiscal policy, government procurement, and socio-cultural ecosystem. The Index revealed how Asian economies are catalyzing philanthropic giving. Instead of outright rankings, DGI measured the performance in terms of four clusters - Doing Well, Doing Better, Doing Okay, and Not Doing Enough.

The Doing Good Index (DGI) is a first-of-its-kind study based around a set of indicators that taken together show the regulatory and institutional infrastructure enabling or impeding philanthropic giving. It examines fiscal, cultural and social incentives to donate; the regulatory environment that can facilitate or hinder systematic investment; factors that affect the establishment and operations of organisations that deliver services or products to address a societal need; and their ability to access funds.
DGI gathers input from Social Delivery Organisations (SDOs) to shed light on how to address their challenges such as difficulty in raising funds, bureaucratic red tape, and a talent shortage.
While each economy has initiated some measures conducive to philanthropic giving and the development of the social sector, there is more that can be done to improve the enabling environment for doing good. No single economy has tapped into its full potential and there is room for improvement in all cases. In some cases, there are relatively simple “fixes” such as better communication with SDOs and clarification of regulations, that could have an important effect. Others, such as the reform of tax and fiscal policies will require a longer-term effort on the part of policymakers and stakeholders. But these could be game-changers in unleashing private social investment.
In bird’s-eye view, DGI plays a role at organisational, sectoral, national and regional level. At organisational level, DGI helps SDOs to learn about policies, strategies and best practices that can facilitate organisational development. As a group, the SDOs form the basis of collective identity to foster better understanding of the Malaysian social sector. DGI also plays a policy advocacy role by providing data to policy makers to address key issues of policy and practice concerning the country’s social sector. At regional level, DGI addresses the trust deficit impeding giving, creates new data to understand the landscape, and ultimately point the way to a more vibrant social sector in Asia.
