<![CDATA[Companies require the media in their efforts to develop communication with the public. There are two sides to be addressed through media relations: first, build positive relationships and connect with the mass media. Second, make the mass media partners so organizations can communicate with the public. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the company's media relations strategy. Because creating positive or negative publicity depends on how relations with the media can be built, this type of research uses qualitative research with a case study approach. The respondents of this research are the management and employees of companies located in Jakarta. At the same time, the data collection technique used interviews, and documentation was used as secondary data derived from books, studies or previous research relevant to the objectives of the related research. The data analysis technique uses reduction, data presentation, and verification. The results of this study show that media relations strategies such as press releases, press conferences, press visits, and media meetings boost a company's image in the public consciousness and influence society's image formation. Media relations are implemented to build good media relations and obtain positive publicity. Maintaining solid media contacts also helps. So every company needs to establish good relations with the media because the company's publicity depends on how the relationship is formed. That is why, media relations are very strategic for companies to carry out their activities to increase their publicity.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper examines the impact of carbon tax on financial sustainability of cement and mining companies in South Africa listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Quantitative research method was used. Correlation analysis was used to analyse the data. Secondary data in form of annual integrated reports, sustainability reports and annual audited financial statements from 2016 to 2020 were used as sources of the variables. The results show that carbon tax adversely influences net profit margin. Therefore, this suggests that carbon tax also negatively impacts shareholders’ dividends. Therefore, this suggests that carbon tax also negatively impacts shareholders’ dividends. This study is significant to policy makers by providing valuable information relating to the effect of carbon pricing decisions on the profitability of the cement and mining sector in South Africa. This gives the policy makers an evidence-based opportunity on designing and developing policies that take into consideration that carbon tax is reducing financial performance of the corporate sector in South Africa. This study contributes to the contemporary literature on nexus between carbon tax and financial sustainability from developing country perspective. Furthermore, this is the first empirical study in South Africa focusing on this relationship.]]>

Recently, organization ecological information disclosure has turned out to be a progressively more prevalent method for ecological by-laws. However, at the moment, there is an absence of empirical confirmation on the organization ecological information disclosure effects of air contamination. This research investigates the relationship between air contamination and organization ecological information disclosure applying cross sectional data gathered from listed South African companies in high energy consumption sectors from 2015 to 2021. The findings disclose that the link between air contamination and organization ecological information disclosure is substantially adverse. The Northern province has huge effects on organization ecological information disclosure in comparison with the Eastern province. Furthermore, effect air contamination has on organization ecological information disclosure also varies in companies situated in province with various corporate ecological information disclosure transparency. This study makes available a portrait of the interaction between air contamination and ecological information disclosure expansion in emerging economies such as South Africa.]]>

Islamic banks compete with conventional banks, which are more advanced in products and technology. This research refers to the Technological Readiness Level (TKT) at level 3, which proves the concept of functions and important characteristics analytically and experimentally. This study aims to analyze the factors that affect the financial performance of Islamic banks moderated by competitive advantage variables. The variables observed in this study were the ratio of NPF, NOM, ROA and BOPO. The variable was moderated by the company's competitive advantage (AUE). The method used is quantitative using multiple regression. The data used are annual reports published from 2018 to 2020. The results show that the NOM and NPL variables have an insignificant effect, while the BOPO variable has a significant negative effect. Meanwhile, the competitive advantage variable cannot moderate the effect of NOM, NPL and BOPO on ROA (Company Financial Performance). Therefore, this study contributes that in improving its financial performance, Islamic banking still needs to focus on the amount of income earned to fulfill its obligations Operational Costs and Operating Income (BOPO) in addition to NOM and NPL.
