“…Lack of public awareness of the smart city concept, its implications on quality of life (Aghimien et al , 2020; Rana et al , 2019) and lack of technical skills to use the internet, devices and technology (Mukherjee et al , 2021) are concerns under the awareness subgroup. Lack of creativity, culture of sharing knowledge (Rana et al , 2021) and cultural diversity of expatriates in some multicultural cities such as Dubai (Zakzak, 2019) fall under the culture subgroup. The high degree of inequality in citizens education, income levels and skills (Aghimien et al , 2020; Rana et al , 2019) fall under social and economic disparities.…”

Purpose Nations are opening their “digital borders” to allow the free movement of business, employment and skills. However, this process of digitalization is fraught with challenges. This study aims to identify these challenges to build a solution-oriented framework for smart nations. Design/methodology/approach This study conducted a systematic literature review, analyzing 69 peer-reviewed academic papers out of 5,958 identified papers. Findings The identified challenges for smart nation building were categorized as follows: people and society, technology and innovation, digital infrastructure, politics, governance, economics and business and sustainability. To overcome these challenges, this study highlights the need for a holistic national approach, which includes solutions such as improving education, technology-driven innovations, investments for building smart nation infrastructure, top political leadership involvement, national vision and action plan, national regulatory frameworks, business environment and job creation, stakeholder engagement, renewable energy use and technological integration – all of which are key for sustainable development. Research limitations/implications This study provides directions for building a smart nation framework, but the literature review results are confined to articles, conference papers and book chapters. This study could be further enriched if the findings are cross-checked with experts. This limitation will be addressed in future research. Originality/value Given the dearth of literature on this nascent concept, the insights from this study can guide policymakers and industry leaders involved in smart nation building and benefit researchers engaged in theoretical development.

This chapter explores the relationship between a smart city and citizenship in Malaysia through text and thematic analysis of the recently launched Malaysia Smart City Framework (MSCF). This first MSCF top-down document functions as a guideline and assists in coordinating silo developments by local authorities. As this is the first attempt by authors to relate the smart city concept with citizenship in Malaysia, this chapter contributes as the first academic publication in Malaysia that zooms into the notion of how a smart city development could cultivate or compromise a good future in shaping the mold of the Smart Malaysian Citizenship. Suggestions for and challenges in building the smart citizenship, "nations-of-intent," and in meeting local society needs are elaborated. As argued by the authors, this chapter has impacted the invariable normative content of the
