“…-2 log Likelihood (373.320) which means accept null-hypothesis that indicate model above with independent variables is Fitted with the data. As the value of (DF=2)=5.991 with significance p (0,001), then it means that nullhypothesis again is rejected that indicated education and employment have significant effect toward desire to use digital mobile scanner application [24] with total effect of 64 % (with Nagelkerke R2 approach) [25]. As of Goodness of Fit test, we obtained from Hosmer and Lemeshow Test 11.057 < (DF=5) = 11.0705 which indicated that nullhypothesis where the model is fit, is accepted.…”

As of today, the mobile apps may be downloaded everywhere. The development of mobile apps depends on the type of the work. An increasing use of mobile app is scanner apps due to an easy use. This paper presents the regression analysis on employment and educational background of the mobile scanner app because this research used category in the questionnaire. The use of logistic regression is to prove that any different comparisons are detected between employment and educational background so that the use of mobile scanner can be optimally used. The results show that educational background and employment have vital roles for mobile scanner adoption. This study also proves that previous researches on mobile scanner adoption were true for UTAUT model and comparison analysis.

“…Today, with free wifi coverage, cheaper internet subscriptions, and inexpensive digital devices, scholars have begun to assert that the majority of individuals, institutions, and countries have crossed the first stage of the digital divide. Policymakers are also of the opinion that expanding access to the internet will reduce the digital divide at this level (Quaglione et al, 2020;Reddick et al, 2020). Figure 1 depicts the attributes and levels of the digital divide.…”

“…According to van Deursen and van Dijk (2019), the majority of policymakers believe that the digital divide will diminish as internet coverage expands throughout the country. In order to solve the problem, a recent study emphasises the importance of formulating policies that can expand internet coverage (Quaglione et al, 2020;Reddick et al, 2020). Nevertheless, according to the findings of van Deursen and van Dijk's (2019) study, the digital divide will continue to exist as a result of the development of technology from a material access standpoint.…”

Digital innovation is now the primary economic driver. In the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT), digital skills are becoming increasingly important. A paradigm shift from manufacturing to the digital economy brings opportunities and challenges to Malaysia. To prepare society and the workforce for this shift, Malaysia must put in place appropriate policies to enhance productivity and economic growth. However, if the digital divide remains widespread in the country, all of these digital development agendas will be viewed as mere rhetorical statements. In the face of such challenges, the government has already committed significant effort to promoting digital skills through a number of initiatives. However, it appears that the pace of the effort is still slow. Hence, the purpose of this concept paper is to examine the efforts and implementation of digital development in Malaysia as well as the digital divide that exists within the country. In light of the discussion generated by this concept paper, it is recommended that additional research be conducted into the most effective means of closing the digital divide in the country.

“…Although these inequalities are to a certain extent concealed by the diffuse of mobile Internet infrastructure, the quality and affordability of mobile broadband remain significantly limited. Existing evidence indicates that mobile Internet services rather complement than substitute fixed broadband network (Quaglione et al 2020). A positive sign is that developing and LDCs are deploying the most advanced fiberoptic infrastructure, leap-frogging obsolete technologies such as cable and DSL networks (ITU 2018b).…”

Infrastructure refers to buildings, networks, and other physical facilities that are used to deliver public services, in particular in transportation (roads, railways, airports, bridges), water and sanitation, energy supply, telecommunication, education, and health care.Technology refers to the practical applications of scientific knowledge, in particular in industry. For instance, pharmaceuticals are practical application of medical knowledge while genetically modified seeds are applications of biological knowledge. At the same time, technology transfer refers to the process of moving technical knowledge, know-how, data, source code, etc. from one organization to the other, typically for the purpose of replicating or modifying the original material in a different environment.
