Abstract

This research aims to analyze the macro-environmental factors of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) using the PESTLE framework to evaluate the expansion feasibility of PT Ukhuwah Berkah Semesta’s brand, Ayam Geprek Sa'i. Employing a qualitative descriptive research design with a strategic case study approach, the study retrieves high-fidelity secondary data from credible international instruments, including the World Bank’s World Governance Indicators and the Corruption Perceptions Index. The findings reveal that the UAE offers a highly stable political environment with exceptional government effectiveness and low corruption. Economically, the UAE is a mostly free market with high purchasing power and a robust network of over 20 Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreements (CEPAs), including with Indonesia. While the technological infrastructure is world-class, social and legal factors require meticulous alignment due to collectivist cultural values and mandatory Halal standardization policies. The results suggest that Indonesian SMEs should adopt a transnational strategy, balancing global operational standards with high local responsiveness to religious norms. Future studies should move beyond macro-environmental scanning to conduct empirical consumer perception research to further refine menu localization for the UAE's diverse expatriate population.

Abstract

This article examines South Africa’s geostrategy as a regional power through Ubuntu Diplomacy toward the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) from 2011 to 2022. It aims to explain how South Africa’s stable border orientation enabled power projection to a non-neighbouring state and how Ubuntu Diplomacy framed this process. The study uses a case study design. Using Jakub J. Grygiel’s geostrategy framework, the analysis first assesses South Africa’s state borders and border pressure, then maps power projection in the DRC across diplomatic-political, military, and economic instruments. The findings show that relatively stable borders reduced defensive constraints and facilitated long-range power projection, while Ubuntu Diplomacy provided normative justification for these policy choices.
