I have a question on the M-x term environment
I'm using ksh and I have some aliases defined in .emacs_ksh.
When I invoke M-x term, the aliases are not there.

Should I define the aliases somewhere else?

If those aliases are not specific to ksh when run under Emacs, then
yes you should define them in the $ENV file. I've used a couple different approaches to setting ENV in my .profile:

case "$-" in
  (*i*) export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc ;;
  (*) unset ENV ;;
esac

or:

if [[ -f $HOME/.kshrc ]]; then
  export KSHRC=$HOME/.kshrc
  export ENV='${KSHRC[(_$-=0)+(_=1)-_${-%%*i*}]}'
fi
