Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the role of the demographic bonus in shaping economic growth and labor market outcomes in North Kalimantan Province. Specifically, it examines its effects on GRDP, labor force participation rate (LFPR), and open unemployment rate (OUR), while contributing to the limited empirical evidence at the sub-provincial level and offering implications for evidence-based regional policy. Research Design and Methodology: This study employs a quantitative descriptive approach using secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) for the period 2018–2023. The unit of analysis covers regencies and cities in North Kalimantan Province. The study examines one independent variable (demographic bonus) and three dependent variables: gross regional domestic product (GRDP), labor force participation rate (LFPR), and open unemployment rate (OUR). Data analysis techniques include descriptive analysis, sign test, and panel data regression using the Common Effect Model (CEM), Fixed Effect Model (FEM), and Random Effect Model (REM). The best model is selected through Chow, Hausman, and Lagrange Multiplier tests. Classical assumption tests are also conducted to ensure the validity of the model.   Findings and Discussion: The results show that the demographic bonus has a significant effect on gross regional domestic product (GRDP), the labor force participation rate (LFPR), and the open unemployment rate (OUR). Implications: This research indicates the need for government policy strategies in utilizing the demographic bonus to improve the quality of human resources and develop work programs that can absorb labour optimally.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the effects of profitability, liquidity, firm size, debt default, and firm growth on going concern audit opinions among textile and garment manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Research Design and Methodology: A quantitative approach was employed using multiple linear regression analysis with the assistance of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The study utilized secondary data obtained from the annual financial reports of 18 textile and garment manufacturing firms listed on the IDX during the 2023–2025 period, resulting in 54 firm-year observations selected through purposive sampling. Findings and Discussion: The results indicate that profitability, firm size, and firm growth have a negative and significant effect on going concern audit opinions. In contrast, debt default has a positive and significant effect on the likelihood of receiving a going concern audit opinion, while liquidity does not significantly influence the auditor’s opinion. These findings suggest that financial performance and debt-related conditions are important considerations in auditors’ assessments of business continuity. Implications: The study provides practical insights for auditors, managers, and investors regarding the financial determinants of going concern audit opinions. Future research is encouraged to incorporate additional governance and macroeconomic variables and extend the observation period to enhance the generalizability of the findings.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the mediating role of organizational commitment in the relationship between self-efficacy and the performance of traffic police officers in Indonesia. It hypothesizes that self-efficacy positively influences performance both directly and indirectly through organizational commitment. Research Design and Methodology: A quantitative approach with a causal research design was employed. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire from 300 traffic police officers working in several major cities across Indonesia. The constructs of self-efficacy, organizational commitment, and performance were measured using validated and reliable instruments. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was utilized to test the proposed relationships and mediation effect. Findings and Discussion: The results reveal that self-efficacy has a significant positive effect on traffic police performance (β = 0.30, p < 0.001) and organizational commitment (β = 0.45, p < 0.001). Organizational commitment also significantly enhances performance (β = 0.40, p < 0.001). Furthermore, organizational commitment partially mediates the relationship between self-efficacy and performance, indicating that officers with higher confidence in their capabilities tend to develop stronger commitment, which subsequently improves their work performance. Implications: The findings suggest that police organizations should strengthen officers’ self-efficacy through continuous training and professional development while fostering organizational commitment through supportive human resource policies and employee engagement initiatives. These efforts may contribute to improved service effectiveness, organizational performance, and public safety outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the impact of social media utilization on innovation opportunities, mediated by customer orientation, in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia, focusing on information technology-based sectors in Banten, DKI Jakarta, and West Java. Research Design and Methodology: Using a purposive sampling technique and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) for parameter estimation Findings and Discussion: The study finds that effective social media usage positively influences both innovation opportunities and customer orientation, which in turn impacts innovation opportunities. Moreover, customer orientation mediates the relationship between social media utilization and innovation opportunity. Data from 228 MSMEs confirm the validity and reliability of the tested variables. Implications: The study underscores that technology-based MSMEs should prioritize social media to enhance innovation and gather real-time customer data for market insights. With a strong customer orientation and effective social media capabilities, MSMEs can convert information into valuable insights to drive high-value-added product and service development, bolstering competitiveness. While highlighting managerial implications, the study acknowledges limitations in its regional scope and variables and recommends further research to explore the impact of social media capabilities on innovation.

Abstract

Purpose: Southeast Asian equity markets face recurring crises in which cross-asset correlations rise and diversification weakens. Evidence on the joint defensive roles of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium for the equity markets of Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia remains fragmented. Research Design and Methodology: This study evaluates the hedge and safe-haven properties of gold (XAU), silver (XAG), platinum (XPT), and palladium (XPD) for the Jakarta Composite Index (JKSE), the Straits Times Index (STI), and the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI) using daily data from July 1st, 2005 to June 30th, 2025, divided into two sub-periods. Metals are priced in domestic currency, trading days are synchronized, and returns are computed as log differences. GARCH(1,1) models estimated under Gaussian, generalized error distribution, and Student-t innovations are combined with quantile regression (τ = 0.10–0.50) to capture tail dependence. Findings and Discussion: Results indicate that XAU is the only metal consistently hedging the three indices, evidenced by negative average coefficients, while its safe-haven role is state-dependent, strengthening during specific distress episodes. XAG, XPT, and XPD exhibit positive co-movement even at low quantiles, consistent with diversification or pro-cyclicality. Implications: The findings reinforce safe-haven status as regime- and tail-dependent and support gold as an adaptive crisis overlay in ASEAN equity risk management.

The research sample was determined using purposive sampling, resulting in five companies that met the data completeness criteria. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression supported by classical assumption tests, hypothesis testing, and the coefficient of determination using SPSS software. Findings and Discussion: The results of the study show that net profit margin and return on equity have a significant relationship with stock prices, while return on assets shows a weaker relationship. These findings indicate that profitability indicators based on earnings and returns to shareholders are more relevant in determining the market value of telecommunications companies than the efficiency of asset utilization. Implications: This study provides an empirical basis for investors and company management to use specific profitability ratios as key indicators in assessing and managing stock value in the telecommunications sector.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to understand the meaning and implementation of divine values in the business strategies of private companies through the practices of zakat and sadaqah at the Kalla Group. The study is motivated by the dominance of the conventional business paradigm, which tends to focus on profit maximization while neglecting spiritual dimensions and social justice. Research Design and Methodology: This study employs a qualitative approach, using interpretive phenomenology, to explore the subjective experiences of organizational actors in interpreting the concepts of Tawhid and Allah’s absolute ownership (Al-Milk al-Haqiqi) within corporate business management. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and were then analyzed using data reduction, thematic classification, data presentation, and phenomenological interpretation. Findings and Discussion: The research findings indicate that zakat and charity are not only viewed as religious obligations but also serve as strategic instruments in fostering corporate blessings, moral responsibility, and social sustainability. The value of Tawhid promotes the development of a business orientation that is more ethical, humanistic, and focused on the common good. Implications: This study contributes to the development of a spiritual business paradigm and broadens the scope of phenomenological research in contemporary Islamic business.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to design an integrated Software Quality Assurance (SQA) framework combining Scrum and the Recognize, Scrutinize, Materialize (RSM) approach to mitigate context switching, priority ambiguity, and technical debt in multi-project environments. Research Design and Methodology: Utilizing a mixed-methods approach with sequential triangulation based on Design Science Research (DSR), secondary data were gathered from SOP studies at PT. Boer Technology. Framework evaluation involved a 1–5 Likert-scale questionnaire administered to a purposive sample of 9 active expert Scrum Masters Findings and Discussion: Descriptive statistics and inter-rater reliability analysis confirm a high expert consensus, with a 99.02% cumulative positive response rate. Gwet’s AC2 yielded a fair agreement of 0.2279, demonstrating that integrating RSM strengthens shift-left testing and continuous quality execution without compromising Scrum's iterative nature Implications: This framework offers an original, implementable quality governance solution for medium-to-large software industries to enhance compliance, product stability, and business value. Future research should conduct empirical pilot implementations to test scalability and quantitatively measure long-term impacts using metrics like defect density
