Economic Impacts of Post COVID-19
Get PDFThe post-covid-19 economic landscape is like no other. The pandemic has had a tremendous impact on businesses and economies around the world, and these effects will continue to be felt for years to come. It is important to understand the implications of the current pandemic on the economy and how best to manage and adapt to the new reality. The economic impacts of the post-COVID 19 era bring a new set of challenges to the world. In the short-term there is the threat of a global recession, with global shutdowns and social distancing measures having a direct impact on global economic activity. In the long-term, there will be a profound reshaping of the global economy in ways that are still difficult to predict. The main focus of this study is to highlight the Post COVID-19 impact on a country’s economy and how to minimize or avid its negative impacts collectively and individually.

Awareness of Uterine Prolapse among Women in Birendranagar’s Reproductive Age Group, Surkhet, Nepal
Get PDFUterine prolapse is a common cause of reproductive morbidity affecting women\u27s quality of life. In Nepal, around one million reproductive-age women suffer from this condition. It occurs when pelvic floor muscles weaken, causing the uterus to descend or protrude from the vagina. A study in Birendranagar-04, Surkhet aimed to assess the knowledge of uterine prolapse among women in the community. A sample of 60 women was selected, and data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire. Analysis revealed that 50% had poor knowledge, 33.3% had average knowledge, and only 16.7% had good knowledge. Education level was found to be a significant factor influencing knowledge. Overall, the study highlighted a lack of awareness regarding uterine prolapse among the respondents.

Integration of Information Technology in Financial Services and its Adoption by the Financial Sector in Pakistan
Get PDFThe development of digital innovation is a clear indication of the expansion of financial technology (Fintech) businesses over the previous ten years. Fintech concepts have only lately begun to be accepted by established players in the financial sector. Despite recent bank purchases of Fintech firms, the majority of these businesses are self-funded and accessible to other banks. Because many banks, besides the well-known big ones, continue to provide outdated, outrageously expensive, and bureaucratic financial services, Fintech companies have the potential to replace many crucial tasks presently carried out by traditional banks. In other words, it\u27s expected that Fintech firms will have a replacement effect, forcing banks to abandon certain kinds of business. The incentives for a bank to take risks and increase its effectiveness and profitability may have altered as a result of Fintech advancements. This exemplifies how Fintech developments will affect bank risk, efficiency, and profitability because they offer a competitive source of credit to conventional banks. The purpose of this research is to look into the problems from a global standpoint.

Communication Ecology during Pandemic COVID-19: Challenges and their Mitigation of Journalists from Gilgit Baltistan
Get PDFThe COVID-19 pandemic has wracked the globe with fear and confusion and posed great threats to health system all over the world. A wave of misinformation, rumours, fakes news and hoaxes have also flooded through various media platforms, creating fear and confusion in general public. Global communication was drastically altered by the COVID-19 epidemic, which presented journalists with hitherto unheard-of difficulties, especially in isolated and underdeveloped areas like Pakistan\u27s Gilgit-Baltistan. The misinformation about COVID-19 makes vulnerable people of rural and remote communities like Gilgit-Baltisatn even more vulnerable due to poor healthcare facilities and less or no reliable information about precautionary measures owing to poor internet connectivity and electronic media coverage. With an emphasis on how journalists in Gilgit-Baltistan managed the disturbed information landscape, this study investigates the idea of communication ecology during the pandemic. During disasters and health emergencies, local journalists play a vital role in communicating to general public regarding emergency situation, so this study will evaluate perception of local journalists in Gilgit-Baltistan regarding reporting practices adopted during Pandemic COVID-19 and how they conceptualize and covers news about corona virus and face challenges in reporting and covering health emergency. The study highlights the main obstacles that journalists must overcome, such as a lack of trustworthy information, inadequate internet infrastructure, governmental regulations, and psychological strain. Furthermore this study aims to examine the mitigation of challenges which local journalists from Gilgit Baltistan has been faced during pandemic.

Effect of Internet Addiction on School Going Children
Get PDFThe Internet plays a fundamental role in society. It is an easy access point for information exchange and academic research. Prolonged use of the internet can lead to internet addiction, resulting in marked distress and/or functional impairment in psychological, physical, and social daily life activities.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the nutritional status of school going children linked with internet addiction residing in the vicinity of Bani Gala, Islamabad, and to reconnoitre the changes in dietary habits among school going students located in Bani Gala, Islamabad.
STUDY DESIGN: The study was designed as a descriptive, cross-sectional, and correlational research study on school going children linked with internet addiction residing in the vicinity of Banigala, Islamabad. Three questionnaires were used to collect data, a basic demographic questionnaire, a validated semi-quantitative FFQ, and a 24-hours recall. Anthropometric measurements were done, which include weight, height, and BMI. Their Body Mass Index (BMI) for age was calculated with the help of their height and weight measurements and compared with WHO standards. Dietary practices were assessed with the help of a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Actual energy intake per day was computed based on a 24-hours recall.
SUBJECTS/SETTINGS: Total estimated population of school going children was 7,173 at the time of data gathering in the selected vicinity of Islamabad. A sample of 500 (273 (54.6 %) male and 227 (43.4 %) of school going children was selected through simple random sampling for selection of school, and then systematic random sampling was adopted for selection of sample.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Socio-demographic, anthropometric, and dietary intake data were entered on SPSS version 22 and subjected to statistical analysis. The Nutri-survey software was used to determine the intake of various nutrients over a 24-hour hours recall. AMoS was also applied for analysis of confirmatory factor analysis. Descriptive statistics like frequencies and percentages were subjected to tests like Pearson’s correlation and regression, which were used to test the relationship between internet addiction and the nutritional status of school going children and test hypotheses.
RESULTS: The results show that internet addiction has a negative impact on the nutritional status of school going children in Bani Gala, Islamabad. BMI of the school going children are high due to lack of physical activities and higher calories intake, hoteling and excessive use of snacks.
CONCLUSIONS: The nutritional statuses of school going children is not properly satisfactory in terms of meal pattern and foods consumption from various schools due to excessive use of internet. The low consumption of vegetables and high intake of fast food and snakes can affect their health in the future.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Implement focused awareness programs targeting school specialists and parents, and various workshops for school going children on the physical, psychological, and social risks of excessive use of the Internet. Parents and guardians should take care of their children regarding their use of the internet.

A Qualitive Review of the Free Compulsory Universal Basic Education (FCUBE) Policy in Ghana
Get PDFThe FCUBE policy in Ghana came with the idea of reducing poverty through a free and compulsory education system for students within the basic school. The policy has contributed and made impacts towards improving enrolment. It has also helped in improving the basic education curriculum by introducing vocational and technical training, as well as communication and information technology. This has helped a lot in raising the standard of the basic education system in Ghana. However, the policy has fallen short of its expectation as it did not take the very conditions of the poor into consideration. If the policy was meant to reduce poverty through free and compulsory basic education, then the poor should have been the first to consider before implementing the policy. The policy’s measures have to an extent failed to reduce poverty in terms of moving towards offsetting the opportunity costs of going to school for the poor, by not removing all kinds of fees and reducing the indirect costs that come with schooling. The policy, therefore, needs to be revised taking into consideration the very conditions of the poor, especially in rural communities.

Understanding the Use of Egg Carton Maths Manipulative to Help Kindergarten Pupils\u27 Add One Digit Numbers in the Akobima MA Basic School, Ghana
Get PDFThe goal of this study was to help Kindergarten pupils at Akobima MA Basic School enhance their composition writing skills. The implementation of the Egg Carton Math manipulative intervention enhanced kids\u27 academic achievement, as indicated by a significantly higher average score (7) at the post-intervention stage compared to the low average score (3) during the pre-intervention stage. The findings also revealed that pupils were more engaged and motivated in the learning process. In order to do this, the Egg Carton Math manipulative was used as an intervention to improve pupil-to-pupil and teacher-to-pupil engagement. Other data-gathering approaches used at the pre-and post-intervention stages, such as observation and interview, verified that the problem was remedied once the intervention was implemented. As a result, the study suggests that the Egg Carton Math manipulative be utilized to help Kindergarten pupils improve their composition writing skills.

Awareness about Patient Rights Available to Patients Entrant in Nepalgunj Medical College of Nepalgunj, Banke
Get PDFThe concept of patient rights, which governs the relationship between healthcare providers and patients, is gaining importance in healthcare practice. At Nepalgunj Medical College, a descriptive cross-sectional study was done to determine how well-informed patients were about their legal rights. For the face-to-face interviews, a self-created semi-structured questionnaire was employed, and 60 patients were chosen through the use of a purposeful selection technique. According to the survey, participants\u27 levels of familiarity with patient rights varied. Between 22% and 43% had moderate knowledge, 43% had poor knowledge, and 35% had no information at all. The majority of people knew little to nothing about their rights while seeking medical care, demonstrating the necessity for ongoing public awareness campaigns.

Rhodes’ governance concept in relation to Thai public service
Get PDFoai:ojs2.invergejournals.com:article/2The paper is aimed to explore the concept of governance as the term came to be used since the 1980s and the 1990s and the way to employ the concept of governance which has been adapted from Rhodes (1996 and 2017) by concerning only five separated uses of ‘governance’ and how to implement them in terms of Thai public service. It includes: 1) as the minimal state 2) as corporate governance 3) as the new public management 4) as good governance 5) as self-organizing network. However, in terms of Thailand, old-fashioned Thai public administration system, no matter how much the world has changed, the central government still plays the vital role to control and runs public service inevitably.

Comprehensive Review: Integration of ICT in Madrassa Education - Addressing Institutional Needs and Challenges
Get PDFThe educational system of the Madrassa throughout the Muslim dominated nations has an important role in the religious education and development of the character. Nevertheless, these institutions have serious problems related to the development of curriculum, teaching approach, and the further employment of the graduates. This review discusses how there is a pressing necessity to have a systematic implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Madrassa education, how this bridges gaps in the institutions, enhance teaching learning outcomes, and equip graduates with modern job markets. Based on empirical evidence and institutional case studies, the paper enumerates general obstacles to ICT adoption, suggests sustainable implementation models and recommends frameworks of harmonizing old Islamic pedagogy with new technological applications.
