Challenges in Pharmacy Education With Limited Resources During COVID-19: ASEAN Perspective

Abstract: The rapidly emerging COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the need for rapid and extensive changes in the education programs of universities. This chapter reviews the changes in teaching and learning made by pharmaceutical faculties in six universities located in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN): Mahasarakham University (Thailand), Taylor's University (Malaysia), University of the Philippines-Manilla (Philippines), Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy (Vietnam), University of Health Sciences (Lao PDR), and Sanata Dharma University (Indonesia). The authors discuss adjustments that were made based on educational contexts, planning and infrastructure, educational processes, and products and outcomes. Each university provides a specific story concerning lessons learned in responding to the pandemic. The chapter concludes with changes that will be employed in future emergency situations, as well as those that will continue to be incorporated with the resumption of normal operations.

Impacts of the National Innovation System on the Star-Up Ecosystem: The Case of the Southern Key Economic Region

Abstract: It has been over two years since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Various weaknesses of the global economic system that had existed before the pandemic have been exposed, and the need for an innovation system has become prominent. This research is aimed at finding such a system at a smaller scale for a key economic zone. Utilizing the theory of a national innovation system and content analysis method based on publications, the research shows that the Southern Key Economic Region can solve the bottleneck that weakens its pioneering position in the country’s economy by promoting its local innovative start-up ecosystem. The ecosystem is currently at the stage of activation (the earliest level in a four-stage lifecycle of activation, globalization, attraction, and integration). In order to move to the next level of globalization, in parallel with other general policy supports, the region should select some start-up sub-sectors to develop, using public procurement as leverage for start-ups.
