Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between market structure and banking performance in Indonesia, with a particular focus on the comparative efficiency of Islamic and conventional banks. Using concentration ratio (CR) analysis and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), the research evaluates efficiency levels across 51 conventional banks and 14 Islamic banks during the period 2015–2021. The findings indicate that the Indonesian banking industry operates under an oligopolistic structure, dominated by a small number of large state-owned and private conventional banks. While Islamic banks demonstrated relatively higher overall and scale efficiency, conventional banks outperformed in terms of technical efficiency. Nevertheless, the differences in efficiency between Islamic and conventional banks were found to be statistically insignificant. These results suggest that although Islamic banking in Indonesia has made progress, it still faces structural and operational challenges in competing with its conventional counterparts. The study contributes to the literature on banking efficiency by integrating market concentration measures with non-parametric efficiency analysis in a dual banking system context. The findings provide important implications for policymakers and regulators in designing strategies to enhance competitiveness, improve efficiency, and foster the sustainable growth of Islamic banking within an oligopolistic market structure.

Abstract

Street food vendors (Pedagang Kaki Lima/PKL) are an essential part of Indonesia’s informal economy, contributing significantly to employment while facing vulnerability and limited institutional support. This study aims to analyze how the integration of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) with the Pay What You Want (PWYW) pricing model can strengthen the economic and social sustainability of PKL in Surabaya. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected from 25 participants, including vendors, consumers, donor communities, individual donors, and government representatives, through focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document reviews, then analyzed thematically with NVivo. The findings reveal that PWYW increases consumer engagement and builds trust-based relationships, while CSR provides crucial support through training, capital assistance, and community education. Nevertheless, challenges remain in terms of income uncertainty and insufficient regulatory frameworks. The study highlights that multi-stakeholder collaboration among CSR actors, government, donors, and PKL is essential for sustaining the model. Theoretically, this research introduces the integration of CSR and PWYW as a hybrid social innovation in the informal economy, while practically, it offers strategic insights to strengthen microenterprise resilience and contribute to inclusive economic development

Abstract

Millennial entrepreneurs' dependence on digital technology risks causing technostress, which can interfere with their mental health, productivity, and the quality of their business decisions. This study aims to identify, analyse, and synthesise the phenomenon of technostress among millennial entrepreneurs, focusing on the psychological, social, and individual performance impacts in the context of digital entrepreneurship. In an era of ever-evolving technology, technostress has become a major challenge for millennial entrepreneurs who are highly dependent on technology in running their businesses. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology by collecting Scopus-indexed articles published from 2023 to 2025 that are relevant to the topic of technostress among the millennial population. A total of 46 selected scopus articles were analysed using a thematic analysis approach to identify the causal factors, psychological impacts, and coping strategies used by millennial entrepreneurs. The results showed that technostress among millennial entrepreneurs is influenced by factors such as always-on technology, information overload, and the complexity of rapidly developing technology. The main psychological impacts that arise are anxiety, stress, digital fatigue, and decreased sleep quality, which affect well-being and business performance. However, coping strategies such as mindfulness, setting technology boundaries, and social support have been proven effective in reducing the impact of technostress. The novelty of this research lies in the development of propositions linking technostress to the dynamics of millennial entrepreneurship, as well as the importance of digital readiness and digital performance measurement in mitigating its negative impacts. The practical implications of this research suggest that millennial entrepreneurs implement holistic and personalised coping strategies and obtain relevant social support to maintain their well-being and business sustainability. This research also contributes theoretically by expanding the understanding of the relationship between technostress and digital entrepreneurship, as well as opening up directions for more comprehensive and contextual future research.

Abstract

Digital transformation research lacks theoretical coherence while practitioners experience high failure rates, questioning the field's knowledge completeness. Given digital transformation's nature as a resource-driven process, this study assesses whether decade-long research has addressed all essential elements defined by resource-based theory. We constructed a conceptual blueprint incorporating resource-based theory's core principles, drawn from theoretical critiques, empirical validations, and extensions, to evaluate research comprehensiveness. Using systematic literature review and keyword analysis across 46 studies (2012-2024), we mapped digital transformation scholarship against our blueprint. Results show substantial coverage of environmental contexts and resource domains, yet reveal a critical gap in digital resource orchestration. Examination of 42 empirical studies confirms zero attention to orchestration concepts, highlighting knowledge deficiencies that may explain transformation failures. To address this limitation, we introduce a digital resources orchestration framework integrating resource-based and dynamic capabilities theories across two dimensions: content (aligning digital assets with transformation phase requirements) and mechanism (adaptive coordination via multi-organizational layers). This framework offers a holistic resource-based perspective on digital transformation, providing structured ontological mapping to direct future research toward resolving fundamental challenges and improving transformation outcomes.

Abstract

School events play a vital role in strengthening institutional identity, stakeholder engagement, and the overall educational experience. However, many higher education institutions lack systematic, evidence-based approaches for evaluating these events and translating feedback into sustained improvement. This study evaluates a school graduation ceremony at the City College of Calamba to inform strategic and data-driven institutional event management practices. Using a convergent parallel mixed-methods evaluative approach, the study collected data from 274 stakeholders through a structured survey and open-ended responses to assess satisfaction across key dimensions of event planning and execution. Overall satisfaction levels were high, with mean scores ranging from 3.44 to 3.64 on a four-point Likert scale, indicating generally positive stakeholder perceptions. Technical and production quality received the highest rating (M = 3.64), while registration and rehearsal processes received the lowest (M = 3.44), highlighting specific areas for managerial improvement. No statistically significant differences in satisfaction were found across age, role, or department (p > 0.05), suggesting consistent event experiences across stakeholder groups. Based on these findings, the study proposes a Strategic Event Management Framework and corresponding Action Plan that translates evaluation results into concrete institutional management strategies. By reframing school events from isolated celebrations into strategically managed organizational activities, the framework supports continuous improvement, quality assurance, and institutional accountability. The study contributes to educational and institutional management literature by demonstrating how quantitative satisfaction indicators and qualitative feedback can be integrated to guide evidence-based decision-making in higher education event management.

Abstract

Environmental sustainability is a critical agenda for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) supporting the development of Indonesia’s new capital, Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN). This study examines the influence of environmental awareness on green business practices among MSMEs in the IKN region, including Samarinda, Balikpapan, Kutai Kartanegara, and Paser. Using a quantitative approach with data from 90 MSME actors, this research evaluates how cognitive environmental factors translate into sustainable operational behavior. The structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis reveals that environmental awareness has a positive and significant effect on green entrepreneurial intention (beta = 0.914; t = 14.536; p < 0.001), which in turn significantly drives green business behavior (beta = 0.835; t = 8.853; p < 0.001). The model demonstrates strong predictive power, with environmental awareness and intention explaining 83.6% and 69.7% of the variance in their respective target constructs. These results indicate that MSMEs with higher levels of environmental understanding are significantly more likely to implement eco-friendly production and managerial activities. These findings highlight the importance of internal cognitive factors in shaping sustainable business behavior. From a practical perspective, the results suggest that the IKN Authority and MSME support institutions should prioritize environmental literacy programs and targeted green business training. Strengthening environmental awareness is essential to ensuring local enterprises actively contribute to the long-term sustainability goals of the new capital. By fostering environmental consciousness, policymakers can effectively accelerate the transition toward a green economy among regional MSMEs.

Abstract

Electricity demand in Asia has grown substantially over the past three decades, creating a persistent imbalance between supply and consumption. This study analyzes long-term trends in the electricity supply–demand gap from 1993 to 2022 and develops forecasting models to support energy management and policy planning through 2052. Using quantitative time series methods, two scenarios are generated: Business as Usual (BAU) and Additional Efforts. The analysis shows that electricity demand will continue to rise across both scenarios, driven by industrial expansion and rapid urbanization. Although policy interventions and technological improvements help moderate growth, they are not sufficient to fully offset future demand pressures. The study underscores the importance of accelerating renewable energy deployment, improving energy efficiency, and strengthening transmission infrastructure. A short-term increase in efficiency-oriented efforts is essential for stabilizing the regional energy system. The findings provide actionable insights for policymakers and energy managers, offering an evidence-based foundation for designing sustainable electricity strategies that address Asia’s growing energy needs.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate a web-based e-tourism platform to enhance the promotion and accessibility of rural religious tourism in Indonesia. The research focuses on the shrine of Nyai Siti Ambariyah in Bukur Village, Pekalongan Regency, a culturally significant yet under-promoted pilgrimage site. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using a prototype model. Data were collected through literature review, observation, interviews with local stakeholders, and document analysis. The prototype website (bukurdesareligi.com) was designed, tested, and refined iteratively with community feedback. Usability testing, SEO performance analysis, and Google Analytics were used to evaluate functionality, accessibility, and digital visibility. The findings indicate that the platform successfully integrates cultural and spiritual narratives with modern digital tools. Usability testing showed that over 85% of users could easily access historical content, event schedules, and visitor services. The responsive design ensured accessibility across devices, while SEO optimization improved online visibility. Importantly, the website was not limited to technical functions but also served as a cultural archive, documenting rituals, oral histories, and promoting local small enterprises (UMKM). Compared to previous studies that focused on static and non-interactive systems, this platform provides a more holistic and interactive solution. The study concludes that web-based e-tourism can effectively support religious tourism digitalization in rural areas, bridging gaps in promotion, visitor engagement, and heritage preservation. However, broader application across multiple sites and long-term evaluations are needed to ensure sustainability and scalability. This research contributes theoretically by advancing discussions on the integration of ICT and religious tourism in rural contexts, and practically by offering a replicable model for community-driven digital tourism platforms. The novelty lies in combining technical innovation, cultural identity, and community participation, demonstrating how localized digitalization can empower rural destinations.

Abstract

Understanding the elements that affect employee performance is essential for organizations seeking to sustain productivity and preserve their competitive edge. This research investigates how job rotation and job promotion influence employee performance, with job satisfaction serving as the mediating factor, focusing on employees of PT. BPR BKK Jateng. A total of 140 employees took part as respondents, and the data were processed through Structural Equation Modeling using the Partial Least Squares SEM PLS approach. The findings reveal that job rotation and job promotion both exert significant positive impacts on employee performance, with job satisfaction acting as a partial mediator in these relationships. All proposed hypotheses were supported, confirming that fair, transparent, and motivating organizational practices enhance employee satisfaction and performance. Job promotion was found to have a greater direct effect beta = 0.538 on job satisfaction compared to job rotation beta = 0.315. However, job rotation was found to have the greatest direct effect beta = 0.361 on employee performance, compared to job promotion beta = 0.237 and job satisfaction beta = 0.311. These results emphasize the vital role of strategic human resource practices in promoting a motivated and high-performing workforce.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of bank size, profitability, institutional ownership, and operational efficiency on green banking implementation, with green financing as a mediating variable, using data from nine Islamic commercial banks in Indonesia during 2020–2024. Employing a quantitative approach with path analysis and Sobel tests, the results show that bank size and profitability have a significant positive effect on green financing, while institutional ownership and operational efficiency do not. In the green banking model, bank size and green financing significantly enhance green banking disclosure, whereas profitability, institutional ownership, and operational efficiency exhibit no direct effect. Mediation analysis confirms that green financing significantly mediates the relationships between bank size, profitability, and institutional ownership and green banking, but fails to mediate the effect of operational efficiency. These findings indicate that green financing functions as a critical transmission mechanism linking internal bank characteristics to sustainability disclosure. The study contributes theoretically by extending stakeholder theory through the integration of green financing as a mediating mechanism in Islamic banking, and practically by highlighting that regulatory and managerial efforts should prioritize strengthening green financing capacity, particularly in large and profitable banks, to improve the effectiveness of green banking implementation in Indonesia.
