Background: On November 18, 2019, a 57-year-old man from China's Hubei province got COVID-19, the first instance of coronavirus. It takes physicians in China more than a month to identify additional instances in Wuhan, China. Within a week, the coronavirus appeared in a Chinese seafood and meat market and swiftly expanded to at least 180 nations, killing over 125,000 people and infecting over a million. Method: Our data comprised the overall number of coronavirus cases, cases reported, repeated cases, and fatalities caused by the outbreak. For pandemic coronavirus, content method was used to analyze data from March 27, 2020, to May 24, 2020, in Pakistan. Results: COVID-19 had an impact on both developing countries and developed countries, according to the findings. Likewise, coronavirus active cases and fatalities have been documented in all parts of Pakistan. Conclusion: Coronavirus originated in China and now affects 180 nations, includes Pakistan. Pakistan is an impoverished country that is unprepared for a pandemic. As a result of this coronavirus Outbreak, Pakistan could confront a slew of difficulties in the future. Keywords: Coronavirus.

Green building has become an important issue among architects and urban planners due to the increment in global warming risks and climatic changes which influenced negatively on natural resources. It is also one of measures been put forward to alleviate the significant impacts of the influence of buildings on the environment, society and economy. There have been extensive studies on green buildings, as evidenced in the rapid growing number of papers been published in last decades. These studies have been conducted in both developed countries and developing countries, indicating this is a global issue. However, there is lack of extensive researches on the green buildings in Iraq that is crucial for the future exerts. This paper reports the definition of green building, the environmental, social and economical aspects of green building, and application of green building's principles in traditional housing in Iraq.

Economic Position

This paper argues that the main cause of the deteriorating economic position of unskilled workers in the United States and other developed countries has been expansion of trade with developing countries. In the framework of a Heckscher-Ohlin model, it outlines the evidence in support of this view, responds to criticisms of this evidence, and challenges the evidence for the alternative view that the problems of unskilled workers are caused mainly by new technology. The paper concludes with a look at the future and at the implications for public policy.

Urban Water Systems

This study, which is based on reports and articles from various parts of the world, discusses the future development of urban water systems in developing countries. The starting point is the growing need for water and water infrastructure in these countries. Based on an analysis of shifting trends in the water sector in developed countries it is argued that the new infrastructure being constructed runs the risk of soon becoming inefficient and outdated. The first trend is the improvements in domestic water use efficiency; the second is the new sustainability agenda, which places new demands on the water systems. Cities in the developing world have the opportunity to promote domestic efficiency at early stages by laying a strong emphasis on demand management, and to construct more sustainable systems by including sustainability criteria early in the development process.

Technology addictions (TA) have become a global scourge in recent times, yet in information systems (IS) literature, while a lot of research is being done from developed countries and health-related disciplines, little attention is being paid to this menace by IS scholars from developing countries. To address this issue, this chapter provides a viewpoint on the future research that seeks to investigate from a multidisciplinary and stakeholder perspective what the nature of TA from developing country context is. It will also determine how the socio-technical interaction between human motivations and technology features result in TA, which is novel in IS literature.

Manpower Needs

The Engineering Profession in the developed countries has greatly increased in numerical strength in recent years but the future pattern is not clear and forecasts of manpower needs in industry are unreliable. Nevertheless, statistics indicate that the United States has, relative to the industrial population as a whole, a clear advantage in technological manpower in the Western World though Russia may, perhaps, be even stronger. The difficulty of evaluating the evidence is stressed. In the world as a whole international co-operation tends to reduce the inequalities of distribution but an enormous task lies before the developing countries which need to produce and retain many more engineers.

Abstract In developed countries, the majority of manufacturing companies are moving to Industry 4.0 to stay competitive. But as far as concerning the developing countries there should be need of proper knowledge about the Industry 4.0. The findings of the survey are presented in this article for evaluating the readiness of manufacturing industries in Indian perspective to adopt Industry 4.0 innovations. Also, readiness factors were validated based on the benefits realized by manufacturing industries as a result of implementing Industry 4.0 technologies through the development of hypotheses. Besides, this survey is the first to examine Industry 4.0 adoption status in Indian manufacturing industries. According to the findings, readiness factors have a significant relationship with the benefits achieved through the implementation of Industry 4.0, and research agenda for the future are discussed.

Aid Programs

AbstractExisting best practices for aid delivery are well known and largely uncontroversial but often neglected by bilateral and multilateral aid agencies because of domestic political considerations and bureaucratic resistance. Developing countries should unilaterally ratify an agreement committing them, in the future, after they have experienced sustained and robust economic, social, and political development, to establish their own foreign aid programs that follow existing best practices for aid delivery. Such foreign aid reciprocity agreements would have numerous benefits, including: being an international tool to signal a developing country’s resolve to reform and a domestic tool to pressure corrupt public officials to improve; enabling developing countries to take a leadership position in international development discourses; putting pressure on developed countries to implement best practices; and encouraging other developing countries to support and eventually adopt aid reciprocity agreements, which would lead to an increase in the amount of aid in the future. Furthermore, the idea of unilateral reciprocity agreements could potentially be expanded to areas of international interaction beyond foreign aid such as finance, trade, security, technology transfer, migration, and environmental policies.

Medical tourism is currently a catch-all phrase to describe any form of travel across borders for the purpose of receiving medical treatment. Up to this point in time, there have basically been only two kinds; patients from developing countries seeking advanced medical care unavailable in their homeland and patients from developed countries seeking lower prices or faster attention for their medical care. Although these two groups have been growing exponentially in recent years and pose substantial challenges on their own, little attention has been paid to a third arm of the medical tourism industry which potentially may have greater ramifications for the future. There is an emerging class of on-line entrepreneurs who may take advantage of their choice of lifestyle to enhance the range of choices in their medical treatment, and this group should be recognized. This chapter discusses the demands and challenges this new arm of medical tourism may pose for public policy, medical financing and medical practice.

There is still a considerable number of states in the world, where a substantial percent of humanity resides, for some reasons unable to meet the requirements of globalization and left behind as possible raw material supplier and labor. Thus situated, it is at least unserious to talk about the future pulling the developing countries up to the developed countries' level.
