Ethiopia’s unconventional approach, for example, reflects the country’s limited financial and human resources, as well as the low level of available international support. Despite these severe constraints, the results so far have been better than anyone expected. From the start, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s government understood that Ethiopia’s success in combating COVID-19 would depend not on the number of respirators it had, but on the public-health measures taken to contain the virus’s spread. His government also wanted to prevent serious damage to one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies, which expanded at a 10.5% average annual rate in 2004-18 but remains vulnerable. Safeguarding these gains, preventing job losses, and ensuring firms’ survival was critical. So, instead of implementing a national lockdown like most other governments, including in Africa, Ethiopia initiated…

What Happened In Episode 19 Of Pyar Ke Sadqay As we discussed a twist in the story from the 19 episode in drama serial Pyar Ke Sadqay, this episode had something in progress to that of what we watched in episode 18. Sarwar is on the go to succeed in his plan by installing Shanzay once again in Abdullah’s life and make him distract from Mahjabeen.

He not only bashes his son-in-law for torturing Shanzay but also directs him to get out of the house. Shanzay is finally seeking a divorce from her recent marriage. On the other hand, Shanzay is getting inclined to Abdullah now while even knowing that he is married to Mahjabeen now. She visits Abdullah’s office again in an extremely depressed mood and the conversation between them ends up on Shanzay’s question from Abdullah if he will get married to her or not as she gets divorced to which he responds positively. Coming to…

Sony says after July 13th, new PS4 games must be PS5 compatible

According to a report from Eurogamer, Sony has begun telling PlayStation 4 developers to prepare for the launch of the PlayStation 5 in a big new way. Starting on July 13th, games submitted for certification on PlayStation 4 must be compatible with PlayStation 5. This news comes by way of developer documentation apparently posted on PlayStation's internal partner website, that Eurogamer got its hands on. Apparently developers are able to use their PS4 devkits to perform this check, thanks to an update released in April. The documentation also apparently states that "compatibility" means that the submission code runs without issues on the PlayStation 5, and provides the same features on PS5 as PS4. Developers who submit for certification before July 13th are apparently "strongly recommended" to prepare PS5 compatibility as well.

Understanding court cases and their settlement

"It would be best if settlement is pursued and achieved without the needless filing of court cases."   Substantive laws and the Rules of Court are passed with policies to allow aggrieved individuals, juridical entities, and entities authorized by the law to institute actions to vindicate rights violated or seek redress for breach of rights from the court. The aggrieved may file civil or criminal actions: civil actions are commenced for the protection of a right or prevention of a wrong (Section 3 (a), Rule 1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure) while criminal actions are initiated by the State to prosecute an offender for an act or omission punishable by law (Section 3 (b), Rule 1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure). There is another type of action which is loosely treated in practice as civil actions since it seeks no penal sanction but is a remedy sought by a litigant to establish a status, a right, or a particular fact – these are known as special proceedings (Section 3 (c), Rule 1 of the Rules of Court).
