    The success of emergent entrepreneurial adventures are of interest to stakeholders given the important role that such businesses play in shaping the economies in most countries. While several emergent entrepreneurial businesses are threatened with failure and early exit within the first five years of the business, the literature have attributed and continuesly agued numerous factors responsible for the failure. In this study we argued that to ensure entrepreneurial success there is need for persistent commitment to the career, strong aspirations to desired goals and emotional intelligence. Thus the study examines the effect of these factors namely career commitment, aspirations and emotional intelligence on extrinsic career success taking the context of the cosmetics industries in Malaysia. The quantitative in-depth interview research technique was used to retrieve primary data through questionnaires. An estimated sample of 341 cosmetics entrepreneurs in Malaysia were selected as respondents of this research using simple random sampling method. The analysis was based on the multiple linear regression technique using the SPSS software. The results indicated that career commitment among cosmetic entrpreneurs positively relates to extrinsic entrepreneurial success (β= 0.258, t=2.937, p<0.004). The relationship between career aspiration and extrinsic entrepreneurial success is predicted as positive and significant (β= 0.121, t= 1.319, p<0.019). Finally, based on the result (β=0.162, t=1.738, p<0.085), there is also a positive and significant relationship between Emotional intelligence and extrinsic entrepreneurial success. Some implications of this research are discussed based on the study findings at the end of this study.

Communication technology has advanced swiftly in the contemporary age, making a significant contribution to human existence. Smartphones are one of the most useful technologies. Mobile apps arose as a result of the evolution of regular phones into smartphones. Mobile applications with various functions give varying levels of aid to human existence. This study aims to give self-medicating patients a guideline and correct content information of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. Subsequently, it is to develop a mobile application for the medication (E-MEDIC app). Furthermore, it is to ease and save users' time searching for medicines content. The third objective is to evaluate the user's acceptance of the medication mobile application (E-MEDIC app). The qualitative methodologies utilised for the E-MEDIC mobile app included locating two specialists to conduct an Alpha Test to obtain their thoughts and selecting twelve respondents with relevant experience to serve as testers. The experiment includes several areas of the application's functioning, usability, and interface design. All respondents and experts agreed that the E-MEDIC mobile app's functionality, usefulness, and usability are excellent. The E-MEDIC smartphone app, which is based on this initiative, can provide accurate information and content specifics on over-the-counter (OTC) medications to self-medicating patients. If properly implemented in pharmacies, OTC medications, and public health, the E-MEDIC smartphone app offers several benefits. The results from this study are promising.

    When traditional Malaysian paddy farmers adopted the Internet of Things (IoT) in the area of Muda Agricultural Development Authority (MADA), it sparked a bioeconomy change. With regard to food security challenges around the world, researchers explored how precision farming can provide farmers with a means of improving and expanding rice production. This can be done through the bioeconomy. For paddy farmers in Malaysia, achieving cost-effective and time-efficient rice production, particularly in terms of rice quality, is a tremendous problem. We used a qualitative approach with field observations and focus group discussions. This allowed us to explore the perceptions of traditional paddy farmers in MADA about the bioeconomy, and how they could make a significant contribution when they participate. Researchers discovered that the Ministry of Agriculture encouraged farmers to adopt it. This is because the changes stemmed from the adoption of IoTs, such as drones for applying fertilizer and pesticides, but there is still a scarcity of them because traditional farmers are largely poor to participate in precision farming since drones’ usage in paddy cultivation in other countries indicated that it could help increase paddy productivity. The farmers also acknowledged and admitted their significant roles toward sustainable consumption and production patterns, both on the demand side and on the supply side of the economy.
