Abstract

This study explores the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) strategies of three leading Indonesian multinational enterprises (MNEs)—Indofood, Adaro, and Kalbe—from the food and beverage, mining, and pharmaceutical industries. Using a thematic analysis, the research identifies three key themes shaping their internationalization strategies: Strategic Global Expansion, Operational Integration and Synergy, and Institutional and External Market Dynamics. The findings highlight how these firms leverage global expansion to diversify markets and enhance competitiveness, employ operational integration to achieve synergies and control, and adapt to institutional and regulatory challenges to mitigate risks and maintain resilience. Classical theories such as the OLI Paradigm, Internalization Theory, and Resource-Based View (RBV) provide a foundation for understanding these strategies, while contemporary frameworks like the Linkage-Leverage-Learning (LLL) Framework and Springboard Theory offer nuanced insights into the unique dynamics of emerging market multinationals (EMNEs). This study underscores the critical role of institutional alignment, regulatory compliance, and market adaptability in ensuring successful FDI outcomes. It contributes to the literature by advancing theoretical frameworks to better capture the complexities of FDI from emerging economies and offers practical recommendations for policymakers and practitioners aiming to enhance the global competitiveness of EMNEs.

Cement plants can utilize waste as alternative fuel and raw materials, providing waste disposal services. This research discussed strategies for cement companies to develop their waste management business. Strategic tools called scenario planning are used in this research to create robust strategies facing future uncertainties. This research used a qualitative thematic data analysis from interviews with experts to identify critical uncertainties. The key focal issues are how will regulatory, market competition, and sustainability trends impact development of waste management business in cement company over the next 5 years. This research involved 6 industry experts from different companies, cement companies, government, and regulators. Through interviews and thematic data analysis, driving forces were identified and by using expert ratings, critical uncertainties were defined. The critical uncertainties are regulation and industry competition, which then shaped the four scenarios as the result. These scenarios have implications that impact the waste management industry and cement companies must be able to adapt to the emerging scenario. This research concludes with recommendations for cement company to leverage process efficiency in waste utilization, advocate to government and regulators, utilize branding as environmentally friendly solution to the waste problem, engage in research and development of waste processing technologies, establish strategic partnership with relevant stakeholder, and adjusting focus in terms of investment spending and technology adoption.

Abstract

Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK) serves as Indonesia's vocational high school system designed to produce work-ready graduates. However, SMK graduates consistently maintain the highest open unemployment rate among all education levels in Indonesia at 9.42% in 2024, significantly higher than Thailand's 0.59% for vocational graduates. This study utilized system dynamics methodology to analyze factors contributing to SMK graduate unemployment and simulate policy interventions to reduce unemployment rates by 2045. Through interviews with 11 stakeholders, literature review, and observations, 34 variables were identified in a Causal Loop Diagram and converted into a Stock Flow Diagram with 54 variables. Twenty-two scenarios were developed across four groups: GDP growth analysis, education budget allocation, budget distribution analysis, and SMK budget composition. Results indicate that maintaining GDP growth above 4.89% or allocating minimum 8.544% of GDP to education budget can eliminate SMK graduate unemployment by 2045. The most effective intervention is increasing student certification budget allocation, which can achieve zero unemployment by 2040. The study recommends implementing "Scenario 0 Unemployment" with 8.273% allocation for student certification while equally distributing remaining budget between partnership and infrastructure improvements.

Abstract

This research investigates the primary factors affecting consumers’ intention to adopt electric vehicles (EVs) in the Jabodetabek region of Indonesia. This research analyzed data from 188 participants using a quantitative method through PLS-SEM. The model integrates the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), the Perceived Value (PERVAL) framework, and several contextual factors. The results show that perceived quality and price value significantly affect attitudes, while charging station availability and resale value directly influence adoption intention. Interestingly, attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control were not significant predictors. The findings suggest that in emerging markets, practical and economic concerns outweigh psychological or emotional drivers. These insights offer guidance for policymakers and businesses to focus on infrastructure development and value-enhancing strategies to accelerate EV adoption.

Abstract

This study explores the strategic decision-making process in implementing Greenomina, a digital transformation platform developed by PT Pertamina (Persero), a reputable state-owned energy company in Indonesia, to support decarbonization initiatives through carbon emission tracking and management. The analysis draws upon two frameworks: the Business Model Canvas (BMC) and the Digital Transformation Canvas (DTC). Greenomina primarily targets Scope 3 emissions, or indirect emissions from business travel and activities, by enabling employees to measure, document, and offset their carbon footprints. This study employed a qualitative approach, combining in-depth interviews and document analysis. The findings highlight key components of a successful digital business model, challenges in adopting digital solutions, and the role of digitalization in enhancing energy efficiency. Greenomina significantly improves transparency, employee engagement (specifically within the state-owned enterprise (SOE) ecosystem, and operational flexibility, aligning with national sustainability goals. Policy recommendations include strengthening digital infrastructure, fostering cross-sector collaboration, and incentivizing employee participation to expand the impacts of the platform across the energy sector in Indonesia.
