Abstract

New challenges face Thailand's economy as it exits the factory age and struggles towards higher value-added economic activities. One important component of new economic development will be encouraging more foreign investment, particularly in the provinces of the country away from Bangkok. China is becoming an increasingly important investment and trade partner for Thailand and the creation of an industrial estate in the northern province of Chiang Rai is in part intended to encourage additional Chinese investment in the country. However, providing space alone is insufficient to understand the need of investors, including their current and future demand for skilled labour. This paper reports on a program of qualitative research featuring in depth interviews of Chinese business-owners and relevant government officials and others aimed at understanding the style and nature of management among Chinese business owners and, hence, to make preparations for future labour market requirements.

Abstract

The halal food industry holds significant promise in the global market, with its importance extending beyond Islamic countries to encompass secular nations and Muslim minorities. Indonesia is a critical player in this industry's development with its substantial Muslim population. The Halal Product Assurance Organizing Body(BPJPH) is pivotal in advancing the halal food sector among urban Muslims in Indonesia. This study examines the role and challenges BPJPH faces in this context and proposes strategies for strengthening its position to enhance the industry's success. This study employs a qualitative approach to investigate the role of BPJPH in fostering the halal industry in Lampung, Indonesia. Data was gathered through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with halal industry players and relevant stakeholders. Data analysis was conducted thematically while adhering to ethical research principles. The findings underscore the significant role of BPJPH in improving the quality of halal products, enhancing consumer confidence, and providing trusted halal certification. Moreover, through outreach and training, BPJPH increases industry awareness and knowledge about correct halal practices. BPJPH must improve infrastructure, human resources, and stakeholder collaboration to maximize its impact. The study concludes that BPJPH can potentially strengthen Indonesia's halal industrial ecosystem, contributing to economic growth and societal welfare. However, challenges persist, necessitating concerted efforts from BPJPH and stakeholders to innovate and sustain the industry's growth. This research provides valuable insights for developing the halal food industry and underscores the crucial role of BPJPH in ensuring its success.

Abstract

Understanding the factors that influence Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs’) to obtain halal certification is important because it can help increase their participation, strengthen consumer trust, and promote sustainable growth in the halal sector. This study aims to analyze the determinants influencing MSMEs’ decisions to pursue halal certification, focusing on five critical factors: consumer awareness, regulatory processes, trust and reputation, economic considerations, and religiosity. Employing a quantitative explanatory research design, supplemented by qualitative interviews, data were collected from 100 MSMEs’ operating in the food, beverage, cosmetics, and fashion sectors. All constructs showed high validity and reliability, with Cronbach’s Alpha ranging from 0.783 to 0.828 and item-total correlations above 0.30, while the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test confirmed that the residuals followed a normal distribution. Additionally, Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) and tolerance values indicated no multicollinearity among the independent variables, and the Glejser test showed no heteroskedasticity, supporting the regression model’s validity and reliability. The results indicate that consumer awareness (β = 0.308, p < 0.01), regulatory processes (β = 0.153, p < 0.05), trust and reputation (β = 0.204, p < 0.05), and religiosity (β = 0.249, p < 0.01) significantly and positively influence MSMEs’ decisions to pursue halal certification, while economic factors (β = 0.020, p = 0.764) have no significant effect. The study concludes that consumer awareness, regulatory process, trust, and religiosity influence MSMEs' decisions to pursue halal certification.
