Abstract

The business sustainability of MSMEs is a strategic issue in the Indonesian economy, considering their substantial contribution to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and employment in Indonesia. However, MSME owners still face various obstacles in accessing formal financing, influenced by perceived usefulness, trust in institutions, and ease of service access. This study aims to analyze the impact of these three variables on MSME business sustainability and to examine the moderating role of the business owner's education level in this relationship. A quantitative approach with an explanatory design was employed, involving 268 MSME owners—selected via purposive sampling—who have used or are currently using financing from formal financial institutions. Data were collected using a Google Forms-based questionnaire distributed via social media and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS software (version 4.1.1.6) to identify relationships between variables. Structural testing comprised two stages: the measurement model (outer loading, reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity) and the structural model (R-squared, Q² Predict, and effect size/f²), followed by hypothesis testing. The analysis results indicate that trust in financial institutions and ease of access to capital have a significant positive effect on MSME business sustainability, whereas perceived usefulness do not have a significant effect. Education level only strengthens the influence of perceived usefulness on business sustainability but does not moderate the influence of trust or ease of access to capital. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening trust in financial institutions, improving ease of access to capital, and developing the educational capacity of business owners to support MSME business sustainability.

Abstract

The International Community Service Program (KKN) held in Laensasi, Philippines, aims to empower people of Indonesian descent (Registered Indonesian Nationals, RIN) through an educational and practical approach. This program is designed to answer the challenges of the welfare of the RIN community, such as the low quality of life due to limited access to jobs and unequal community empowerment. Various activities, including skills training, introduction to Indonesian culture and geography, as well as humanitarian actions such as the construction of mosques, have been carried out to raise awareness of nationalism and the quality of life of the local community. This methodology uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. Data sources come from observation, socialization, education, as well as demonstrations and hands-on practice. The results of the study found that the main problem faced by Indonesian citizens (RINs) in the Philippines is related to welfare, which affects their level of living. This welfare problem includes an inadequate quality of life, both in terms of housing and facilities that support daily activities. This is due to limited access to jobs and a lack of equitable distribution of community empowerment, which has an impact on the low skills of the local population. In addition, the importance of raising awareness among Indonesian people there about their desire to return to their homeland is also one of the main objectives of the implementation of this international KKN program. The impact of the activity showed a positive impact in the form of increasing skills, strengthening national identity, and more optimal local economic potential. It is hoped that the implementation of this program can be a model of sustainable community empowerment that focuses on independent and inclusive development.
