          <dc:creator>Htin Lin Maw</dc:creator>
          <dc:description>This study aims to examine the integrated microfinance services provided by
Pact Global Microfinance Fund (PGMF) in Sa Lin Township and to analyze the effect
of the integrated microfinance services on the well-being of households in Sa Lin
Township. The study used the descriptive method and simple random sampling method
to explore the objectives. Quantitative research methods and multiple linear regression
methods are used for data analysis. For primary data, a structured questionnaire is used
to collect data from 388 households out of 13,660 households in Sa Lin township using
the Taro Yamane Formula (1973). Secondary data were collected from textbooks,
previous international research papers, periodical journals, documents, and reports of
PGMF. In this study, integrated microfinance services mean a combination of financial
services and non-financial services. Financial services include loan services, savings
services, and the Beneficiary Welfare Program. Non-financial services include nonformal
business education and health care services. According to the survey results, the
significant factors affecting the effect of integrated microfinance services on the wellbeing
of households are savings services from financial services and non-formal
business education and health care services from non-financial services. According to
the survey results, microfinance institutions (MFIs) need to raise awareness of loan
services and beneficial welfare programs to help improve the living standards of people
in their respective implementation towns.</dc:description>
