Abstract

The ride-hailing app Grab has now grown into a multinational transportation company headquartered in Singapore with offices in eight Southeast Asian countries. Since its founding in 2012, the company has expanded beyond its core business of ride-hailing services to transportation, delivery, finance and insurance, enterprise, and more, all integrated into a cloud-based system. This study is being conducted to find out how Grab, with its core function as a ride-hailing application, fits into customers' contemporary purchasing behavior and how the company has developed a strong brand recognition among its customers. Five influential aspects were evaluated: the super app, flat rate fees, short waiting times, reliability, and environmental friendliness. A total of 201 Grab users participated in an online survey, and IBM SPSS was used to analyse the results. The results showed that factors such as super app, flat rate fees, environmental friendliness, and reliability are positively related to customers purchasing behavior. Short waiting times, though, had no significant impact on customers' purchasing behavior. This survey gives Grab important information on how customers view the company, which helps them boost brand awareness.

This study was conducted with the objectives of: (1) identifying factors that influence the development of integrated tourism (2) obtaining information on tourism destination management models to achieve tourism development that can increase Regional Income (PAD) and the community economy, and (3) obtaining information on strategies and concepts. The research locations were Bau-Bau City, North Konawe, Bombana, and Kolaka Regency. The analysis methods used were Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis and SWOT analysis. The conclusion of the results of this study shows are as follows: (1) Facilities and infrastructure in tourist areas currently only consist of several types. The existing facilities and infrastructure do not meet tourism quality standards due to lack of attention from the local government; (2) The Tourism Office faces several challenges in developing the tourism sector. This is because tourism is not considered a primary or leading sector in these areas; (3) The development of the tourism sector cannot be separated from the progress of information technology which is increasingly spreading in various regions in Southeast Sulawesi Province. The suggestion from the results of this study is that the Southeast Sulawesi government should hold/collect levies for each district that has tourist attractions to increase PAD.
