Abstract

Bangka-Belitung Islands Province, located in the Karimata Strait, offers a number of benefits that can be optimized to promote the development in the region through the development of the tourism sector of the province. The magnificence of its natural scenery, culture, and history are the main attractions for international tourists to pay visit to the region. However, the development of the tourism sector in the Province tends to be concentrated in Belitung Island while Bangka Island has not received serious attention from the local government. The purpose of this research paper is to identify and explore the option of sustainable tourism to promote the development of Bangka Island. The data of this study are collected from in-depth interviews, focus group discussion (FGD), and observations. In addition, secondary data is also for further analysis. The results of this study show that sustainable tourism is required to increase the regional development in Bangka Island. However, several problems, such as environmental issues in relation to the tin mining activity in the region as well as ineffective coordination among stakeholders hamper the development of tourism sector. The approach of sustainable tourism, which emphasizes the roles of stakeholders, will be able to serve as the locomotive to develop the tourism sector in the region and, subsequently, the future development of Bangka Island in general. The contribution of this study is to encourage the development of sustainable tourism with a comprehensive approach through strengthening the roles of stakeholders.

Abstract

Climate change has been a much-discussed topic around the globe, and all stakeholders, including the business sector, must take collective and serious actions. The We Mean Business (WMB) initiative is a non-profit organisation that supports companies to develop policies and accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy and achieve sustainable business. On the other hand, Indonesia, as one of the world biggest emitters and signed the Paris Agreement, are also required to meet its climate pledge. Unfortunately, not many Indonesian businesses have shown their contribution to climate change. This study aims to analyse the companies’ commitments under the WMB coalition and evaluates the progress, risks, and opportunities they have faced when fulfilling these task. Concerning the existing condition of the Indonesian business sector, this study is expected to provide lessons learnt from companies around the world joining the WMB coalition. For analysis, a qualitative method through desk research was employed in which any documents related to the report of companies’ commitment to climate change were thoroughly interpreted. Thirty-eight companies joining the WMB from eleven sectors were selected as the sample. The results show that the science-based target initiative (SBTi) is the most popular, while sustainable fuels are a less preferable commitment among the firms. Besides, most companies have shown considerable progress in achieving their duty towards climate change. These results can be lessons learnt for Indonesian businesses to implement the same initiatives to contribute to emissions reductions so that Indonesia can meet its climate pledge within the specified time.

Abstract

Poverty has been the biggest problem around the world, and one of the innovative solutions offered is microfinance. Since the success story of Grameen Bank has been widely spread, many countries decided to adopt microfinance programs to alleviate poverty. Microfinance is then believed as an effective instrument that can answer the poverty challenges. Several studies have analysed the impact of microfinance on poverty reduction, but the results varied. Some support that microfinance can improve the poor, but other criticise and argue that microfinance does not play a significant role to reduce the poverty rate and even undermine the poor. This article aims to analyse factors, namely culture and social capital, that can influence the sustainability of microfinance performance. The assumption used in this article is that the success of microfinance cannot be separated from the borrowers’ background that influences their behaviours towards microfinance. The article summarised a number of studies that have discussed this issue using a qualitative approach. The findings show that culture and social capital have an impact on the sustainability of microfinance, but the impacts depend on the condition of cultures and social capital in a society. However, additional supports are needed and should not be ignored to accelerate the impact of microfinance.

Abstract

Ownership structure is considered to be the most influential component in corporate govern-ance; it is also closely related to firm performance. The current research analyzes the effect of ownership structure (both insider ownership—board and managerial ownership, blockholder ownership—and institutional ownership concentration—pressure-insensitive and pres-sure-sensitive) on firm performance (industry adjusted return on asset/IAROA) based on its life cycle. Life cycle is incorporated into the research to examine whether the effect of own-ership structure on firm performance differs at each stage of the life cycle. The current re-search uses imbalanced panel data consisting of 695 observations of sample firms from the manufacturing, IT, and multimedia firms during the 2005-2010 period. The results show that: (1) insider ownership has a significantly non-linear influence on IAROA, indicated by a U-shaped curve (2) blockholders have a significantly positive effect on IAROA in firms at the mature stage; on the contrary, the effect is significantly negative in firms at the growth stage (3) institutional ownership concentration has a significantly negative effect on IAROA across the samples and a significantly positive effect on firms at the mature stage, and (4) pressure-insensitive and pressuresensitive institutional ownerships have a positive and sig-nificant effect on IAROA in firms at the mature stage; on the contrary, the effect is negative and significant in firms at the growth stage.
