Abstract

Background: Public transportation is an important key to solving traffic congestion and air pollution problems. Bogor is ranked as the 832nd most congested city globally in 2022 and has a poor air quality index. In an effort to mitigate these challenges, the government initiated a soft launch of a public transportation service in Bogor City, named BISKITA Transpakuan, in November 2021. But, from May 2023 to May 2024, the average daily ridership of BISKITA Transpakuan was only 0.86%. In contrast, cities worldwide that have successfully achieved public transportation utilization targets aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals typically exhibit daily ridership percentages ranging from 9% to 12%. Consequently, concerted efforts are necessary to increase BISKITA Transpakuan ridership.Purpose: The study investigates the impact of service quality and customer satisfaction on reuse intention within the urban public transportation context, specifically focusing on the BISKITA Transpakuan bus transit system in Bogor, Indonesia.Design/methodology/approach: The research employs a hybrid data collection approach, combining online and offline surveys, to gather responses from 250 BISKITA Transpakuan passengers. The study utilizes Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) to analyze the relationships between transportation performance, driver performance, service quality, customer satisfaction, and reuse intention.Finding/result: The findings reveal that both transportation performance and driver performance significantly influence service quality. However, while transportation performance directly impacts customer satisfaction, driver performance's effect is mediated through service quality. The study also confirms the significant role of service quality and customer satisfaction in shaping reuse intention. The predominance of female passengers and those aged 19-35 underscores the need for gender-sensitive infrastructure and services.Conclusion: The direct and positive influence of transportation performance on service quality, customer satisfaction, and reuse intention highlights its significance in enhancing the overall passenger experience. While driver performance also plays a crucial role in shaping service quality, its impact on customer satisfaction and reuse intention is indirect, mediated through the perceived quality of service. The substantial proportion of passengers residing in Bogor Regency suggests potential for service expansion. To enhance Bogor's public transportation, management should optimize vehicle maintenance, routes, schedules, and driver training, prioritizing passenger comfort and female passenger safety. The government should also analyze bus stop regulations for efficiency and accessibility while increasing subsidies to reduce fares and support operators.Originality/value (state of the art): This study contributes significantly to the measurement of service quality in the transportation service sector. The use of reuse intention variables provides a better understanding of the relationship between service quality and consumer decision-making. Keywords: bus transit system, customer satisfaction, reuse intention, service quality, structural equation model

Practically, this study can inform various stakeholders in formulating strategies to promote sustainable waqf development and contribute to national economic growth.Originality/value (State of the art): To the author's knowledge, previous research has yet to specifically discuss the waqf theme concerning innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem (EE) in supporting the growth and sustainability of waqf development. Keywords: sustainable development, innovation, entrepreneurship ecosystem, waqf, systematic review

Abstract

Background: Indonesia's low percentage of entrepreneurs is impeding the country's economic progress, which in turn is exacerbating the country's high unemployment rate and low entrepreneurial inclination among the youth.Purpose: This research examines the effect of gender-role orientation, volition, and parental influence on entrepreneurial intention among undergraduate students in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach: Data analysis for this quantitative study, which involved 172 Indonesian undergraduate students, was done using the Structural Equation Model - Partial Least Square. Purposive sampling was used to choose the sample, and questionnaires were used to collect data.Findings/Result: The research concludes that feminine gender-role orientation and parental influence positively impact entrepreneurial intention, while masculine, androgynous, and undifferentiated gender-role orientations, as well as volition, do not have a significant effect.Conclusion: To increase the number of entrepreneurs in Indonesia, it is crucial to develop entrepreneurial programs tailored to undergraduate students with a feminine gender-role orientation and to involve parents, given their significant influence on entrepreneurial intention.Originality/value (State of the art): Despite traditional beliefs favoring masculine gender-role orientation in entrepreneurship, research suggests that feminine, androgynous, and undifferentiated orientations also have potential, and factors like volition and parental influence play crucial roles in shaping entrepreneurial intention. Keywords: gender-role orientation, volition, parental influence, entrepreneurial intention, undergraduate students

Abstract

Background: Women entrepreneurship is emerging as a significant catalyst for sustainable development and economic growth in urban and rural areas in Indonesia. Empirical evidence suggests that women entrepreneurs having rich social capital and strong entrepreneurial orientation tend to achieve positive business performance.Purpose: This paper investigates the impact of social capital and entrepreneurial orientation on the business performance of women entrepreneurs in Bogor.Design/methodology/approach: A survey was administered to a sample of 136 women-led enterprises in Bogor. The independent variable of social capital was operationalized as trust, norms, and networking, while entrepreneurial orientation was assessed in terms of innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking. Profitability indicating business performance served as the dependent variable. Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis was performed to test the hypothesized subsequent relationships between the variables.Findings/result: This paper reveals that social capital significantly enhances entrepreneurial orientation (t-stat = 7.192, p < 0.01), and entrepreneurial orientation positively impacts the business performance of women-led enterprises (t-stat = 4.857, p < 0.01). Furthermore, entrepreneurial orientation mediates the relationship between social capital and business performance, as indicated by a significant indirect effect (t-stat = 3.442, p < 0.01).Conclusion: This paper proves the importance of social capital (namely norms, trust, and networking) and entrepreneurial orientation (including risk-taking, proactiveness, and innovativeness) to enhance the profitability of women-led firms. Enhancing social capital can be encouraged through family support, networks, business community engagement, and stakeholder policies in improving entrepreneurial orientation in women, leading to improved business performance and economic growth in Bogor.Originality/value (State of the art): This paper contributes to a better understanding how business performance of women entrepreneurs is influenced by subsequent relationships of social capital and entrepreneurial orientation, including the mediating role of entrepreneurial orientation. Keywords: business performance, entrepreneurial orientation, social capital, small and medium enterprises, women entrepreneurship
