Abstract

Research Aims: This study investigates the link between involvement in direct export activities and firm performance, with reference to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study employed primary data collected from questionnaires administered to 271 exporting SMEs in seven provinces in Jawa-Bali Region. The OLS and GLM regression techniques were employed to estimate the export impact model. Research Findings: The results show that export activities bring the highest performance improvement in product quality, moderate improvement in marketing and networking techniques, total sales, total profit, production technique or technology and worker productivity, and least improvement in domestic sales. SMEs' exports-induced performance improvement is positively affected by firm size, owners' education, the presence of foreign investors, and assistance from central government agencies, negatively affected by years of exporting, and shows an inverted U-shaped relationship with export intensity. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: The discourse of firm internationalization theories should not only focus on pre-export activities, but also post-export activities. Further, the discourse on the relationship between firm performance and degree of internationalization should consider non-linear relationship. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: SMEs should keep actively participating in the government's export assistance programs in their post-export stage. Especially, exporting SMEs should maintain and strengthen their relationships central government agencies. In order to maintain and expand their export activities, SMEs may consider partnership with foreign investors. Research Limitations and Implications: Future research may investigate the specific export stimuli and export barriers that SMEs encounter in post-export stage. The scope of the study can be expanded to provincial or country comparison in Southeast Asia, taking into account differences in social and economic characteristics, or specified to a particular province/region or product group/industry. Other definitions of SMEs-such as those based on asset or turnover size-might be attempted. Data accuracy may also be improved through the use of factual (quantitative) data to replace some perceptual data used in the current study.

Abstract

Research Aims - This research study focuses on the factors affecting customer trust in mobile financial services (MFS) in Myanmar by developing a research model that incorporates six different factors: perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, social pressure, enabling conditions, service quality, and satisfaction. Design/Methodology/Approach - Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were employed to analyse the data. Subsequently, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was utilised to examine hypotheses. An analysis was performed on the survey data collected from 250 mobile phone users who are likely to use or currently using MFS in Myanmar. Research Findings - The results indicate that trust in MFS is significantly influenced by enabling conditions, service quality and satisfaction. The study also found that perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and social pressure have statistically insignificant effects on trust-building in the MFS context. Theoretical Contribution/Originality - A finalised trust-development theoretical research model was formulated and proposed for utilisation in the investigation of customers’ trust in future research within a similar context. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian Context - The findings of this study are beneficial and valuable for Mobile Financial Services Providers (MFSP) in the ASEAN countries, enabling them to create suitable marketing strategies, business approaches and service infrastructures regarding their customers, thereby developing customer trust. Research Limitations and Implications - The conclusion is limited to the mobile financial services sector in Myanmar, and the opinions of non-adopters and rejectors are excluded.

Abstract

Research Aims - This study investigates the influence of Japanese work cultures on Malaysian foodservice employees’ work stress and their turnover intention. Design/methodology/approach - A total of 381 respondents participated in this study, and the research data was validated prior to the empirical assessment. Research Findings - The results of this study signify that the Japanese work culture amplifies workers disorientation, stress and turnover intention. Besides, thru hierarchical regression, workplace stress was found to mediate the relationship between Japanese work culture and employee turnover intention. Theoretical Contribution/Originality - The study reveals the conflicts between the South East Asian employees and the Japanese management culture in the foodservice industry. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context - This study contributes to the organisational and human resource management literature by examining the direct and indirect effects of Japanese work culture on employees’ workplace stress and their turnover intention in the context of the restaurant industry. Research limitation & implications - As for the study limitation, the current study does not cover all Japanese restaurant in Malaysia as the researchers focus on the Klang Valley setting.

Abstract

Research Aims - This research aims to identify the main criteria of supplier selection in the oil and gas industry in Indonesia and their causal relationships by using the DEMATEL method. Methodology - Based on the literature review and discussions with experts, ten supplier selection criteria were identified and used as the basis of questionnaire development. The questionnaire was distributed to 57 respondents representing supply chain management and other divisions in eight oil and gas companies in Indonesia, with 51 valid responses. The data was analyzed using the DEMATEL method. Research Findings - The results show that product price is the most important criterion, while technical ability was the least important criterion. Moreover, six criteria (product quality, product price, technical ability, service, production capability, and financial situation) were identified as the cause criteria and require more attention compared to the other four effect criteria (delivery performance, stable delivery of goods, lead time, and reaction to demand change in time). Theoretical Contribution/Originality - The research provides insights on the important criteria of supplier selection in oil and gas companies in Indonesia and their causal relationships. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context - The results can be used by oil and gas companies to better select their suppliers. Research Limitations and Implications - This study uses a non-stratified sample from eight oil and gas companies in Indonesia, which may not accurately represent the Indonesian oil and gas industry.

Abstract

Research Aims - Night-market is a popular type of micro-business in Southeast Asia. The purpose of this research is to examine night markets from the perspective of business development, a perspective that has received limited attention from the literature. Design/methodology/approach - A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed amongst nightmarket business owners in a selected venue around Penang. Data were analyzed using SEM-PLS to measure the variables proposed in the study. Research Findings - The results of this study showed that commitment and business experience is significantly related to business development while government assistance yields no relationship. The age of the business owner has a significant moderating impact on the effect of commitment and business experience on business development and, again, no impact on the effect of government assistance. Theoretical Contribution/Originality - This study argues that the presumption that all microbusinesses have an entrepreneurial character should be treated with skepticism. It is important to differentiate between being entrepreneurship and making end meets. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context - Managerial Implication in the Southeast Asian Context: The present study suggests that operating a night-market business and passing it down from generation to generation while at the same time aiming for it to grow bigger is unrealistic. Research limitation & implications - This study has several limitations. First, due to time and geographical constraints, the sample size was limited to 300, and the data were collected only in Penang. Secondly, the study did not consider whether the business owners (night-market traders) were first generation owners, second generation, or beyond.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aims to examine the impact of Intellectual Capital configuration on business diversification in Indonesian banking Industry Design/methodology/approach: This reseach employ panel data regression analysis, using data of 88 commercial banks in Indonesia druing the year of 2014 to 2019. Research Findings: The results of this study shows that Human Capital Efficiency and Structural Capital Efficiency affects the strategy of income diversification. While Capital Employed Efficiency affects the strategy of asset diversification. The results Theoretical Contribution/Originality: Previous research more focus on the effect of diversification on performance. Researche on how the internal capital of an organization affects the level of diversification in the banking industry is still limited. Using a country context where the banks are very heterogeneous (both in terms of size and intellectual capacity), this research can analyze how these differences affect the level of diversification. Managerial Implication in the South East Asian context: the aspects of human resources and internal processes greatly affect the diversification of banking products. Furthermore, diversification of bank assets will be strongly influenced by working capital, which is currently a concern for financial services authorities in some Asian countries. Research limitation & implications: The indicators used to measure intellectual capital in this study rely more on financial information in the financial statements. This indicator does not measure directly the intellectual capital of a bank organization.
