“…More significantly the most popular MRT stations for free delivery correlate closely with the location of the semi-independent girls' colleges on the island reinforcing the observation that there are circuits of exchange centred upon and potentially even within individual schools. The influence of the School environment is all the more significant in light of the work by Ping et al (2003) that reveals generally high uptake of IT in Singapore as a result of phased planning by the government and generally higher levels of IT culture and use among independent autonomous schools. Participation in the independent and semi-independent sector of schooling in Singapore also reveals an economic capability as "Right from the introduction of the independent schools scheme there was strong public criticism over its elitist nature and the high fees charged by the schools".…”

Purpose -The popularity and persistence of Blogshops raises ethical issues regarding the presentation of the female teenage owners' "self" to others and the relationship they maintain with buyers and other owners. Design/methodology/approach -This ongoing observational study of Singaporean Blogshops reveals a layered and interrelated typology of alternative e-commerce activities that critiques many of the myths associated with e-commerce particularly the extent and manner in which it can empower consumers. Findings -It is argued that Blogshops represent a new formulation of e-commerce practice that draws upon a rich assemblage that includes readily available and popular digital technologies and an efficient urban public transport system. Research limitations/implications -This study is primarily emic in perspective and requires complementary ethnographic research among Blogshopowners and buyers -specifically female teenage Singaporeans. Originality/value -The present study introduces the phenomenon of Blogshops to a wider academic and theoried audience through a critical interpretation of observed activities. In doing this the study offers insight into the complex intersection of public transport infrastructure, freely available Web-based technologies and the significant influence that fashion exerts upon contemporary popular culture.

“…Perceived psychological risk (PSYR) refers to customers' awareness of the probability that a producer's performance range can harm their self-perception or peace of mind (Ping et al, 2003); potential loss of self-esteem due to anger over not meeting a buying goal (ego loss). Therefore, the hypothesis is as follows: SAJM H13.…”

PurposeThe authors aim to study a conceptual model based on behavioural theories (UTAUT-3 model) to evaluate the adoption, usage and recommendation for neobanking services in India.Design/methodology/approachThe authors propose this model based on the UTAUT-3 integrated with perceived risk constructs. Hypotheses were developed to determine the relationships and empirically validated using the PLSs-SEM method. Using the survey method, 680 Delhi NCR respondents participated in the survey.FindingsEmpirical results suggested that behavioural intention (BI) to usage, adoption and recommendation affects neobanking adoption positively. The research observed that performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), perceived privacy risk (PYR) and perceived performance risk (PPR) are the essential constructs influencing the adoption of neobanking services.Research limitations/implicationsLimited by geographic and Covid-19 constraints, a cross-sectional study was conducted. It highlights the BI of neobanking users tested using the UTAUT-3 model during the Covid-19 period.Originality/valueThe study's outcome offers valuable insights into Indian Neobanking services that researchers have not studied earlier. These insights will help bank managers, risk professionals, IT Developers, regulators, financial intermediaries and Fintech companies planning to invest or develop similar neobanking services. Additionally, this research provides significant insight into how perceived risk determinants may impact adoption independently for the neobanking service.

The role of education in facilitating social and economic progress has long been recognized and skills and knowledge are the engines of economic growth and social development of any country [1]. And skilled workforces contribute extensively to enhance the national economy of every country. Therefore, government polytechnic institutes of Bangladesh give emphasis to produce skilled technicians for building up a secure national economy. Nowadays technology appears in education as a proficient tool for effective teaching and learning. To make the graduates competent for the global market, polytechnic institutes of Bangladesh require proper integration and utilization of modern technology in the educational setting. This study aims to analyze the current state of affairs of using technology in the government polytechnic institutes of Bangladesh. Different statistical methods were used in this study to analyze the data critically. It was exposed that the use of computers and internet were very much limited in polytechnic institutes. The teachers, administrators and students pointed out that the overall quality of technology service offered by the institution was not up to standard. Moreover, poor infrastructure, lack of training and unavailability of modern technology were persisting simultaneously. Hence the existing situation in the educational settings was found to be a crucial hindrance to digitize Bangladesh and needs proper policy making to overcome the present situation.
