It is considered to be an alternative to mass tourism. The negative impacts, such as loss of biodiversity and loss of natural resources is confronted with the help of ecotourism. For the past years, stakeholders are considered to be vital for ecotourism implementation. Successful implementation of the ecotourism is not possible without the understanding, involvement and management of the stakeholders. Stakeholder management is vital for the successful ecotourism implementation in the destination, but it is not as simple as it sounds. Even though many types of research have been made on the issue of achieving ecotourism sustainability in tourism destination but there is still a lack of a robust and proper model that can assist in the management of stakeholders which can help to unify stakeholders to achieve sustainable ecotourism in the destination. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the importance of identifying stakeholder management significance that can enhance stakeholder interests to unify them towards achieving sustainable ecotourism in the destination.\u0000Methodology/Technique – Content analysis was done, and the study concludes that in order to manage stakeholders, their engagement has to be well planned by understanding their interests and level of influence. Twenty-one articles were selected and analyzed from Scopus and Web of Science databases.\u0000Finding – The management of the stakeholders varies accordingly to the destination due to which it has to be carefully planned so that sustainable ecotourism can be implemented in the destination. Stakeholders understanding will provide a win-win situation for the destination and make the ecotourism implementation process smoother. Moreover, the study also fills in the theoretical gap of the analysis of the studies, which is a part of a significant contribution towards ecotourism implementation in a destination.\u0000Type of Paper: Review\u0000JEL Classification: D63, G12, G14.\u0000\u0000Keywords: Stakeholder Management, Engagement, Ecotourism, Sustainable Ecotourism\u0000\u0000Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Salman, A; Jaafar, M; Mohammad, D.

The research method used is an explanative quantitative method, using a questionnaire, examining theories and policies related to Covid-19 and the application of e-commerce.\u0000Methodology/Technique – This study used a sample of 75 MSME actors and found that there was a significant increase in the use of e-commerce by Indonesian MSME actors during the Covid-19 pandemic. The use of online media in economic activities during the pandemic increased from 21.33% to 54.67%.

In order to get rid of the increased prevalence rate among children, the biological attributed risk factors for anxiety should be given more concern. Particularly, this research intended to study the biological brain mechanism for trait anxiety among children. With brain electrical activity mapping, this research was aimed to study the relationship between the brain locations situated at the prefrontal cortex and temporal lobe with trait anxiety. Subsequently, this research aimed to predict the associated brain locations for trait anxiety among anxious children.\u0000Methodology/Technique – A total of 212 Chinese children from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with high trait anxiety was recruited after the first phase of the screening phase through the administration of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children-Trait Scale (STAIC-T). Recruited children then proceeded to the second phase of brain electrical activity brain mapping with a Quantitative Electroencephalogram (qEEG) brain mapping machine.\u0000Finding – Results showed that brain locations Fp1, Fp2, F7, F8, F3, F4, T3, and T4 are significantly correlated with trait anxiety while F8, Fp2, F4, and Fp1 are the significant predictors for trait anxiety among children during on task state. In short, the biological brain mechanism of brain locations played a role in forming the anxious trait the personality of children which resulted in reducing their resilience towards stress.\u0000Type of Paper: Empirical\u0000JEL Classification: D83, I19\u0000\u0000Keywords: Brain Electrical Activity Mapping (BEAM); Children; Chinese; Malaysia; Trait anxiety; Quantitative Electroencephalogram (qEEG)\u0000\u0000Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Cheong, C.C; Ashari, A; Ibrahim, R; Sulaiman, W.A.W; Yong, K.K.

The issue is that lecturers were forced to work remotely without time to prepare. The purpose of this paper is to propose an online, self-paced short course for lecturers that covered 9 units including; communication tools, video calling, WhatsApp, menu design, learning theory, content creation, online assessment theory, online assessments and the grade centre.\u0000Methodology– A mixed-method research design with participant perspectives was implemented to determine the satisfaction of 125 lecturers who completed the intervention. From 79 who completed the questionnaire with open- and closed-ended questions, it was determined that communication and online assessments were the most sought-after skills and 73.42% stated that they felt the course met their expectations. The skills were broken down and participants were asked to rate – in a five-point Likert scale – how well they were now able to perform the tasks.\u0000Finding – The results were as follows showing the level four and five (highest) selections; announcements – 83.54%, send email – 81.01%, content editor – 67.08%, build content (files) – 79.75%, build content (images) – 72.15%, build content (videos) – 70.89%, video conferencing – 58.23%, WhatsApp – 82.28%, course menu design – 73.42%, creating a video in PowerPoint – 58.23%, reflection activities – 44.30%, online tests – 50.63%, online assignments – 50.63%, and managing the grade centre – 48.10%.
