Published: September 2023

This article examines the improvement of the organization of accounting of fixed assets during quarantine. The essence of the definition of «fixed assets» by domestic economists for the last five years is summarized and the actual definition of this object of accounting is proposed. The most important tasks related to the organization of fixed assets accounting have been identified, in particular, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The comparative characteristics of the domestic and international legal framework for the organization of accounting for fixed assets at the enterprise are considered. The general process of documentary circulation of fixed assets is reflected, therefore their schedule of document circulation is offered. An act on the temporary decommissioning of fixed assets during quarantine conditions has been developed. The procedure for organizing the conservation of fixed assets at the enterprise, as well as the Order on the conservation of fixed assets during the pandemic COVID-19. Accounting of fixed assets transferred for conservation in quarantine conditions is considered. An in-house document has been developed for the current control over the use of fixed assets at the enterprise.

The article evaluates foreign public administration systems on the example of the member states of the European Union. Based on the analysis of the effectiveness of the implementation of public administration reforms in the EU member states, we have systematized the key areas of adaptation of positive vectors to Ukrainian realities: 1. Search for political support, reliable leadership at all stages of the reform, development of a long-term and strategic road map/plan for changes and preservation of scope goals of reforms; 2. Build strong external stakeholder support and internal ownership to achieve this through a combination of top-down and bottom-up approaches; 3. Create appropriate resources and systems (civil service) for all levels and processes; 4. Provide measures for monitoring/measuring progress/results of implemented reforms. Strategic orientations for improving the efficiency of the public management system are proposed, taking into account the leading world experience: focusing on subtopics, rather than on complex and often too general measures; measurements that can be used for learning purposes less than for evaluation (or purely for accountability purposes); using employee surveys to collect comparative data on public administration; the implementation of the open data strategy allows analysts to conduct academic and non-academic community research to study issues of public management effectiveness.
Sexismo en los currículos universitarios de filosofía:
Authors: Bernal-Ríos Laura Patricia
Published: September 2023

¿Cuál es el estado de los debates académicos sobre el sexismo en los currículos universitarios de filosofía? La pregunta, así formulada, busca delimitar las principales disputas sobre la incorporación de enfoque de género en los currículos filosóficos en la literatura de la última década. Atendiendo a la revisión sistemática de literatura se realizaron búsquedas en Scopus, Web of Science, Springer, JSTOR, Taylor & Francis y Google Scholar, entre 2012-2022; la estrategia de análisis se centró en los debates recurrentes en el campo. Se analizaron 98 estudios y cinco debates según los cuales las prácticas curriculares excluyentes no permiten la materialización de una educación filosófica inclusiva e intercultural: 1) sesgos implícitos, amenazas por estereotipos y clima hostil, 2) reconocimiento de las mujeres filósofas en el canon y la historia de la filosofía, 3) injusticias epistémicas en la filosofía académica, 4) voces de las mujeres negras en la profesión filosófica y 5) ausencia de las mujeres en la “normalización filosófica” latinoamericana.
Apuntes para una crítica al neoliberalismo desde una perspectiva afectiva
Authors: Mazo González Julio César
Published: September 2023

El texto reflexiona sobre el vaciamiento neoliberal de la política, despolitizando la vida y cuantificando la realidad. El neoliberalismo enaltece la libertad individual, llevando a un individualismo extremo que amenaza el tejido social. La destrucción creativa moldea cuerpos y subjetividades, promoviendo competencia y autosacrificio. La exterioridad neoliberal afecta a los individuos, enfocándolos en su propia libertad y bloqueando su capacidad de actuar con otros. La crítica se centra en recuperar la sensibilidad y el deseo para restaurar la vida colectiva, explorando la relación entre el cuerpo entristecido y la lógica neoliberal de acumulación y autorresponsabilidad, sugiriendo que puede generar cuerpos tristes y descontentos -todo esto en atención a una ontología spinozista-. Se critica, así, el culto a la vida en la sociedad neoliberal y cómo se marginaliza a los cuerpos vulnerables, abogando por abrazar la vulnerabilidad y la interdependencia para superar la lógica destructiva y la obsesión por la acumulación.
Movimiento y actualidad de la filosofía de la liberación

Published: September 2023

En este artículo queremos ofrecer un panorama distinto, incluyendo al filósofo panameño Ricaurte Soler y entendiendo a la filosofía de la liberación como un movimiento amplio y heterogéneo; pero, además, como una escuela de pensamiento filosófico con un compromiso político transformador. A lo largo de su propio desarrollo histórico se hace inmanente. Es un movimiento filosófico con actualidad, porque tiene algo para decir en estos tiempos de guerra y pandemia, en dónde la afirmación de la vida deviene como el principio articulador para la praxis liberadora.
“Lo latinoamericano todavía está en la calle y no tiene bibliografía”.
Authors: Maddonni Luciano Javier
Published: September 2023

Con ocasión del centenario del nacimiento de Rodolfo Kusch, el artículo pretende rescatar al filósofo como parte de un nosotros, es decir, inscribirlo en una trama reflexiva, que el propio Kusch alimenta a la vez que es alimentado por ella. Para ello, apoyado en registros y documentos inéditos, se reconstruye la participación y el aporte del Kusch al equipo argentino de “Investigación filosófica de la sabiduría del pueblo argentino como lugar hermenéutico para una teoría de filosofía de la religión acerca de la relación entre religión y lenguaje”, que desarrolló sus actividades entre 1977 y 1979, año del fallecimiento del filósofo argentino. El artículo se detiene tanto en las sugerencias de orden metodológico como en las reflexiones más temáticas realizadas por Kusch en el marco de aquella experiencia grupal.
Das causas na Ciência Política
Authors: Lenine Enzo , Machado Rômulo
Published: September 2023

Como as definições de causa e causalidade são estabelecidas na Ciência Política? A explicação causal tornou-se fundamental para a constituição da disciplina como ciência capaz de produzir não só entendimentos, como também previsões acerca dos fenômenos políticos. Porém, a centralidade da causalidade tem sido reduzida à questão da inferência causal, elidindo discussões ontológicas, epistemológicas e metodológicas sobre o significado de causa. Nesse artigo, exploramos os modelos de explicação causal na Filosofia como forma de promover um diálogo entre as concepções de causalidade na Ciência Política para além do problema da inferência causal. Argumentamos que a Ciência Política recorre a diferentes concepções de causalidade, mas seu engajamento com reflexões mais substantivas ainda é limitado. Propomos um canal de diálogo com a literatura do realismo filosófico e suas intervenções sobre poderes causais, capacidades e tendências, as quais oferecem uma base ontológica para as discussões de causalidade na Ciência Política.

Authors: Ozdemir Oguz
Published: September 2023

In recent years, the sustainability literacy has become crucial for building more sustainable future.  In this regard, a shift toward sustainability requires literate society on sustainability issues at global scale. Thus, the current study aims to detect the status of sustainability literacy of British and Turkish students. The study was conducted as a survey research with university students in the UK and Turkey within the context of a project that was supported by TUBITAK (Turkish Scientific and Technological Research Organization) and entitled “Ecological literacy education”. The participants (n: 1023) of the study are students attending several departments of Plymouth University in the UK and Mugla Sitki Kocman University in Turkey. The data were collected by using the Scala of Sustainability Literacy and analyzed using appropriate statistical tests at SPSS 22. The findings show that the participants’ sustainability literacy varies significantly depending on their sustainability attitude (SA), sustainability behavior (SB), sustainability knowledge (SK). Besides, the results of t- test analysis indicate that the participants exhibit different tendencies depending on the variables nationality, gender and place. On the other hand, the results of One-way ANOVA-Test revealed that the participants’ sustainability literacy varies depending on the department attended.

“Strochki” and “fitki”, “rosvodets” and “roznamenka”. Special features of theoretical texts in the manuscript from the Russian State Library mus. № 875
Authors: Guseinova Zivar
Published: September 2023

The musical and theoretical manuals of the 17th century contain extensive information about the znamenny chant and the processes of change that took place in it over the course of a century. Created in many russian scriptoriums they reflected the local features of church singing and the features of its theoretical comprehension, expressed, in particular, in the formation of specific terminology. The manuscript of the Museum Collection of the Russian State Library (fund 178) No. 875, which conventionally dates back to 1605-1610, includes an extensive theoretical codex, which presents in general traditional theoretical manuals, but in a special design and with the use of unusual terminological forms. The codex includes two major manuals – “Grani” and “Fito-kokiznik”, each of which covers different types of documents. The predominant ones in them are kokizniks and fitnics, which are sequentially copied the various independent manuals, demonstrating formulas with and without divorces, containing material from various singing books (Oktoich, Stichirar’ Minayny, etc.) and genres (tropari, blazhenny etc.), organized by eight modes. The author of the codex does not intend to bring together the information of different manuals, he prefers to save each document in its original form. But at the same time, to denote theoretical positions, the author uses diminutive and affectionate suffixes that give traditional terms a special, soft shade: "strochka" instead of "stroka", "fitka" instead of "fita", "rosvodetc" instead of "rosvod", etc. It is also unusual to use literary terminology to denote special textual and musical lines, in particular, "dinfong" (diphthong). A remarkable feature of the codex is also the presence of special chants with the corresponding remarks "Troitsky", as well as the introduction of a fita divorce of the monk Isaiah (presumably Ivan Lukoshkov).
Public order: limit or value? Inequality and poverty in the relationship between credit concession, child support, manners, education and accomplishment of the human being

Inequality and poverty are frequent topics in the modern debate. Despite, in fact, global opulence is in constant increase, it is known to all that the contemporary world continues to deny basic freedoms to a high number of human beings. Such evidence, moreover, is set to stay that way, since civil society will continue to obstruct the access to one of the fundamental requirements for a full professional success, which is represented by the opportunity to achieve an adequate education. An opportunity that, in turn, is strongly linked to the family environment, in which one lives, as well as to the level of income that one possesses. The purpose of research is to show that in a finance which is proclaiming itself respectful of ethical values, the purpose of research is to show that in a finance which is proclaiming itself respectful of ethical values, possible requests for financial support, which are intended to allow the full accomplishment of the individual, must be always considered worthy, finding directly in the order's fundamental principles their right foundation., which are intended to allow the full accomplishment of the individual, must always be considered worthy, finding directly in the order's fundamental principles their right foundation.

Published: September 2023

The custody hearing is the act of presenting the arrested citizen, within up to 24 hours, before the judicial authority to verify the regularity of the arrest and the physical condition of the person arrested. This research sought to understand whether this legal procedural instrument has fulfilled the purpose for which it was implemented, which is to guarantee rights, or whether it has reinforced unequal social structures, with the increased stigmatization of certain groups based on skin color or social class. Thus, the aim was to identify the possible criteria used by the Judiciary for granting measures other than imprisonment in the custody hearing, considering the statistics that most people in prison are black and poor. The importance of this research is justified by the relevance of the custody hearing as an instrument for the defense of the fundamental human rights of the arrested subject. The methodology consisted of a qualitative bibliographic and documentary research. The intention was to expand the database on the subject, working as a promoter of the theme, ensuring the inmate the character of a person with rights. Finally, we conclude that the institute of the custody hearing presents itself, in fact, as a mechanism to stimulate unequal social structures that already exist, frustrating its main purpose.
The importance of the gender perspective in judicial experiences against gender-based violence
Authors: Zalazar Claudia E
Published: September 2023

The expert activity, especially in the criminal field, must be carried out with a gender perspective, so that it is respectful of the rights and guarantees of women by granting them dignified, respectful treatment, which does not imply objectification of the victim and with a vision far from prejudices and preconceptions. In these cases, the professional must adopt a broad vision, anticipating the consequences that the exercise of their expert work may bring about on the victim, always prioritizing the person to avoid their re-victimization and falling into institutional violence. For this, the training of experts in the matter and the preparation of protocols are essential in order to adapt scientific techniques to international standards in the field of human rights and protection of women victims of violence.

Palliative care for people with long term neurological conditions: practices and reflections based on comprehensive care
Authors: Othero Marilia Bense , Mesquita Ayres José Ricardo Carvalho de
Published: September 2023

The care for people with Long Term Neurological Conditions (LTNC) isn´t recognized as a major practice in Palliative Care (PC) scientific production; in daily basis, the assistance is focused on hygiene´s care and clinical observation. However, from the perspective of PC, the health professionals´ role is to promote the dignity of the human person. The concept of LTNC covers neurological diseases with a prognosis of long-time life with significant disabilities, end-of-life stage that is difficult to identify, with many symptoms and physical and cognitive impairments. In this paper, we considered the following situations: persistent vegetative state, minimal consciousness state and locked-in syndrome. This is a theoretical study of a qualitative nature, which aims to describe a new kind of PC practice with this population, based on first author PHD study. The concept of Comprehensive Care is the main theoretical framework for the paper. It is proposed a practice reconstruction based on the person´s biography occurs by several perspectives, especially through sensory stimuli related to prior patient´s occupational repertoire. Along with the detailed evaluation, the therapist does a careful and continuous monitoring, proposing activities, giving special attention to their reactions, being able to discriminate what pleases or not, and expanding the possibilities of encounter of people with LTNC and the environment which surround them. Therapist should also provide support and guidance to the family, which is in a vulnerable situation. Regardless of neurological reactions presented by the patients this practice helps reconstructing the meanings of the daily life of person with so severe disability. Sensory stimuli are shown as potential tools for a rehabilitation practice. Memory, history, identity, dignity, and subjectivity qualify the assistance for people with LTNC.

The objective of this review is to highlight the need for an integrated approach to the understanding of the major processes controlling the hydrochemical composition of water bodies in drylands using multivariate statistics, water quality index and heavy metal pollution index. The integrated approach to the hydrochemical investigation of streams and aquifers in drylands is essential owing to their distinctive climate, notably, low rainfall and high temperature. Studies on water quality in arid and semi-arid areas using multivariate analysis and water quality indices were scrutinized. Results showed that the hydrochemistry of streams and aquifers is controlled by both the natural geogenic processes and anthropogenic activities. However, in-depth understanding of geochemistry and land use types, as well as climatic vagaries, is required, to be able to discriminate these processes, since several ions of rock minerals origin are increasingly being added into the environment through human activities. While the sources of solutes and processes controlling the hydrochemistry of streams and aquifers can be established through application of multivariate analysis, this technique is limited in water quality investigations since it cannot measure the suitability of water for domestic, agriculture and industrial uses. Thus, an integrated approach incorporating water quality indices in conjunction with multivariate analysis is required. This is essential owing to the fact that the suitability of water for various uses is central to any hydrogeochemical investigation in arid and semi-arid environments. Thus, it is expected that future hydrochemical studies would apply this approach.

Published: September 2023

Uterine fibroids are one of the most common pathologies in women of reproductive age, related not only to the achievement, but also to the course of pregnancy. In addition, in some cases it has a significant impact on the method of delivery and is associated with certain complications during labor and in the postpartum period. Myoma previa is a rare complication in pregnant women with uterine fibroids. We present a case of a patient with myoma previa during pregnancy. Due to the presence of a large protruding myoma in the patient, a decision was made to deliver by cesarean section. A live fetus was born and a large myoma in the lower uterine segment was found. Due to the suspicion of necrotic changes in the myoma, which would lead to complications in the postpartum period, a myomectomy was performed without complications. Subsequent histological examination revealed necrotic changes in the fibroid. The postpartum period in the woman passed without deviations.
Natural chemicals for healthy living: plant secondary metabolic compounds
Authors: Sheneni Victor Duniya , Muhammad Sani Sade , Shaibu Isaac Eleojo
Published: September 2023

Free radicals are produced by a variety of normal biological processes including aerobic metabolism and pathogenic defense mechanisms. They can also be a result of external exposures such as radiation, pollutants, and cigarette smoke. Reactive oxygen species, or ROS, are a subset of free radicals that contain oxygen. A diet high in antioxidants may reduce the risk of many diseases (including heart disease and certain cancers). Antioxidants scavenge free radicals from the body cells and prevent or reduce the damage caused by oxidation. The protective effect of antioxidants continues to be studied around the world. During aerobic metabolism, oxidants, or reactive oxygen species, are created in our bodies, which can cause a number of illnesses, including cancer and cardiovascular conditions. The substances that balance these oxidants called antioxidants. Natural antioxidants are recommended over synthetic antioxidants, which have been discovered to have adverse effects. Natural antioxidants are the secondary metabolites of phytochemicals. The impact of oxidants on human health and how natural antioxidants counteract them have both been reviewed. The main plant sources of natural antioxidants, several methods for recovering antioxidants from plant matrices, and the superiority of indirect supercritical fluid extraction over other methods are all discussed.

Authors: LIU Ying , JAMES Titilayo , Wang Silas , Li Yeleeya , WANG Kesheng
Published: September 2023

Background: Unhealthy lifestyles can result in health problems such as depression and hypertension. The aim of this study is to investigate whether four modifiable and important health behaviors (smoking, alcohol use, physical activity, and diet) are associated with ensuing depression and hypertension. Methods: Data from 1398 American adults (ages ≥ 20 years) participating in a cross-sectional study---the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-2018 were evaluated. A set of weighted multiple logistic regression models was used to address the proposed aim. Results: Our analysis showed that the overall prevalence of depression and hypertension in U.S. adults were 16.9% and 46.5%, respectively. We found that the two most often reported symptoms of depression are having problems sleeping and having feelings of low levels of energy, with rates of 14.6% and 15.2%, respectively. We also found that participants who engaged in light physical activity had greater likelihoods of experiencing depression and hypertension than those who engaged in vigorous physical activity, with odds ratios of 2.0 (95% CI: 1.2, 3.3) and 1.7 (95% CI: 1.2, 2.4), respectively. Finally, individuals with poor diets were more likely to experience depression than those eating good diets, with an odds ratio of 1.6 (95% CI: 1.2, 2.1). Conclusion: Physical activity, a common marker of overall health, is inversely and statistically associated with both depression and hypertension. Smoking status is significantly associated with hypertension rather than depression. Diet is directly and statistically associated with depression, but not with hypertension, according to this current study.
Reframing neonatal care from an empathic care perspective
Authors: Sobrinho Valete Cristina Ortiz , Albuquerque Aline , Luiz Ferreira Esther Angelica , Bruno Cristina Helena , Moraes Costa Gleise Aparecida
Published: September 2023

Neonates are subjects of rights and, when they become patients, they should be valued as patients. Clinical empathy refers to the way health professionals empathize with patients and is an essential component of patient-centered care. Considering the paucity of studies regarding empathy in neonatal care, this theoretical article aimed to provoke a discussion about this issue and suggest a reframing of neonatal clinical practices. We emphasize why we should empathize with the neonate, considering the bioethical and quality of care aspects, the results of care, and the new reality of post-pandemic relationships. On a practical basis, we report how we can empathize with the neonate, reinforcing the need to see him as the patient, protect his best interests, the role of communication in healthcare, and the need to maintain the other-orientated perspective.

El boom andrógino. El problema de la ambigüedad en la década de 1990 en Costa Rica.
Authors: Sequeira Rovira Paula
Published: September 2023

El artículo propone el análisis de noticias de periódico que tienen como foco de atención la ambigüedad dentro de diversos reportajes del periódico La República y que informaron sobre la indeterminación, el cambio de sexo, el hermafroditismo o la androginia en la década de 1990. Durante aquellos años, a nivel internacional no solo se acentuaron modificaciones económicas, políticas o culturales en la que se profundizó una visión neoliberal, sino que también dentro de Costa Rica se fortaleció la importación de modelos culturales del Norte Global mediante la construcción de malls, la visualización de videos musicales o de películas y a través del acceso a Internet. Dentro de este contexto se encontraron dos inquietudes sobre la ambigüedad en las noticias revisadas. En primer lugar, estuvieron las alusiones que estaban ligadas al cambio de sexo, al hermafroditismo o al travestismo. Por otro lado, las preocupaciones que contenían reprimendas más encolerizadas estaban concentradas en ciertos cantantes y grupos musicales que se proponían como ambiguos. La mayoría de las noticias hicieron alusiones hacia sujetos clasificados como hombres por la asignación de su nacimiento, que proponían un interés marcado en la masculinidad indeterminada. El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar estas percepciones de ambigüedad con el fin de evidenciar las tensiones que se produjeron por la sensación de una supuesta imprecisión en el género, en el sexo o en una sexualidad indeterminada dentro de la década estudiada.

Authors: Alves Krüger Vanessa Andressa , Both Hilgert-Moreira Suzane
Published: September 2023

Diante de um ensino marcado, quase que exclusivamente, pela utilização de metodologias de ensino tradicionais, que priorizam a transmissão das informações pelo professor e a memorização e a repetição pelos estudantes, dificilmente os alunos conseguem se envolver com o processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Dessa forma, torna-se necessário que os educadores conheçam outros tipos de metodologias de ensino e repensem suas práticas docentes. Nessa perspectiva, o presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar a aplicação de metodologias ativas no ensino de Ciências como estratégia para contribuir com o processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Para tal, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica com uma abordagem qualitativa, de caráter exploratório e descritivo, no qual foram buscados os estudos já desenvolvidos sobre o tema. Ao final da revisão, foi possível identificar que as metodologias ativas contribuem para o processo de ensino aprendizagem, nos seguintes aspectos: mudança na relação professor-aluno; aumento da motivação e do interesse dos alunos; envolvimento dos estudantes na construção e na sintetização do conhecimento; geração de protagonismo e autonomia.

Authors: Can Nurettin , Muhyaddin Sanar , Arabaci Ahmet , Koncak Ibrahim , Keles Ibrahim
Published: September 2023

This article studies the sources from which Nigerian university students receive information about China. The awareness of the Nigerian youth about China's initiatives such as 'One Belt One Road' and 'Forum on China-Africa Cooperation' further discloses the perception of the students on the rise of China and its influence on global affairs. In addition, the study reveals how African students perceive China as a trade partner. The results indicate the internet and social media are major sources of awareness. Some students are somewhat aware of the Chinese initiatives, but others have never heard about these initiatives. The students think that China has influence in the World and African affairs and are neutral about the responsible behavior of China as a global power. Students are positive about the Chinese development model and are concerned about the influx of Chinese labor in Nigeria.

The effectiveness of Russian import sanction on the international apple trade: Network theory approach
Authors: Erdőháti-Kiss Attila , Janik Henrietta , Tóth András , Tóth-Naár Zsuzsanna , Erdei-Gally Szilvia
Published: September 2023

In August 2014, the Russian Federation imposed counter-sanctions against Western countries imposing restrictions against Russia following its aggression against Ukraine. It is worth examining to what extent the counter-sanctions have transformed the trade network between the countries. This study aims to show the impact of this embargo on apple import on the global trade network due to the Russian response to the Western countries’ measures in 2014. We chose the methodology of network research to examine the changes in trade networks. We analyzed the apple trade network because this was one of the significant fields impacted by the trade restrictions and panic reactions from EU producers imposed on the sanction. This research shows that Russian import was also impacted negatively, but some third countries are quickly becoming the winners of the restrictions.

Authors: Puji Lestari Novi , Rofic Mochamad , Utami Yuni
Published: September 2023

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of global economic uncertainty on the stock markets in four developing countries in Southeast Asia, namely Indonesia (JKSE), Malaysia (KLCI), Thailand (SETI), and Vietnam (VNI). The study uses the U.S., China, and Europe Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU) indices and the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) from the Chicago Board Options Exchange as proxies for global uncertainty. By analyzing monthly composite stock index return rates in each stock market and monthly percentage changes in both the EPU and VIX, the Vector Auto-Regressive (VAR) model demonstrates that increases in the US EPU negatively impact JKSE, KLCI, and SETI return rates, while VNI tends to respond positively. Increases in EPU in China and Europe tend to have a negative effect on all stock markets. However, the impact of the Chinese EPU was stronger than that of the European EPU, particularly in JKSE and SETI, and the KLCI was more sensitive to the European EPU shock. On the other hand, the effect of an increase in the VIX was comparable to the impact of the US EPU, with JKSE, KLCI, and SETI experiencing negative pressure, while VNI responded positively.

This research aims to assess how much the digital economy influences the quality of financial statements and the survival of MSMEs in Indonesia and Malaysia. This research used an analysis unit of 201 MSMEs registered in the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and a literature review on the digital economy of MSMEs in Malaysia. The analytical approach was then utilized to examine validity, reliability, classical assumptions, analysis path, and hypothesis testing using the t-test in SPSS version 23.0. The results of hypothesis testing in this research show that the digital economy affects the quality of financial statements and has a unidirectional relationship with strong categories. These findings suggest that the digitalization of the economy is critical for MSMEs because it lowers operational costs and exposes them to a broader range of potential customers. Like Indonesia, Malaysia is also concerned about MSMEs' business sustainability, which inspired them to achieve the goal of making Malaysia the center of economic digitalization. This goal would involve technological advances, indicating that MSMEs in Indonesia and Malaysia can improve their financial gain through digital transformation.
