Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this research is to determine whether Indonesian business practices and culture inhibit the competitiveness of Australian small to medium enterprises in Indonesia. Prior to the current economic demise of the Indonesian economy, Australia's trade relations with its closest Asian neighbour were not as significant as trade with countries far removed from Australia's shores. Previous research has identified that cultural problems and inadequate communication contribute towards the lack of competitiveness of international small to medium enterprises.However there has been no rigorous and comprehensive research specially related to Australian entrepreneurs and the problems they encounter in Indonesia.Several key themes emerged from this study which indicated that thorough planning and market research are more important than a comprehensive understanding of business practices and culture. What the research brings to extant literature is a rigorous and methodological analysis of Indonesian business practices from an Australian entrepreneur's perspective. This provides a structured link between the parent disciple of cross cultural communications, the plethora of information on Asian business practices, and the reality of Australian small to medium enterprises attempting to enter the Indonesian market<br>Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates the Indonesian experience in managing the privatization of State Controlled Enterprises (SCEs) during the period from 1983 to 1993. The main objective of this study is to assess and explore the following research question: Why has there been little ownership transfer from state to the private sector in Indonesia even though official policy objectives and strategies for proving SCEs have been articulated and firms have been selected for potential privatization? Realizing complex combination of challenges and obstacles faced by Indonesia, attempts to answer the research question are directed at three main issues: (1) the role of SCEs in the overall national economy; (2) factors that led the Indonesian government to undertake privatization policy, and (3) the preferred models of privatization along with the rationale for such preferences.<br>Five types of data were collected during three separate field work stages from July 1991 to October 1995: State policy analysis, direct observation, analysis of the statistical data, analysis of mass media and personal interviews with key individuals. This triangulation method is employed to ensure a greater presentation of the key elements that deserve to be explored.<br>The principal argument developed throughout this study is that despite the apparent needs for privatization due to the fiscal difficulties and inefficiencies of the SCEs operations, the Indonesian state seems to be reluctant to transfer ownership to the private sector. In the case at hand, the pursuit of privatization is largely a political decision. Transferring ownership would require an overhaul of the present development policy, a huge step that Indonesian state is not ready to take. Instead, the priority has been given to reform the state sector by improving the efficiency and productivity of SCEs operations, and by isolating SCEs from the rent seeking behaviours of government bureaucrats. This tendency, as this study demonstrates, is explained by a deepening direct state involvement in the economy. This study shows that the Indonesian state has expanded its roles in the economy to include not only regulator, facilitator and stabilizer, but also that direct participant as a competitor to the private sector. Consequently, being kept under tight state control, has caused Indonesian SCEs to operate in a highly regulated environment. This environment has resulted in SCEs tendency to become instrument of development and, therefore has prevented them from becoming efficient and productive business entities.

Sarosa, Samiaji. "The information technology adoption process within Indonesian small and medium enterprises." University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Information Technology, 2007. http://hdl.handle.net/2100/427.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the adoption process of Information Technology (IT)-based solutions within small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia, in the furniture and handicraft industries. As the Indonesian SMEs grew in size, they faced new problems in managing their businesses. They have tried to use IT to support their business and resolve some of these problems. Yet in their efforts to adopt IT, they often faced new problems by introducing new technology into the organisation. The thesis examines the experiences of 35 Indonesian SMEs when they adopted IT. We investigated what factors were influencing IT adoption; the process of IT adoption which covers decision making, implementation or deployment and evaluation; and how SMEs cope with and recover from failure. The participants’ experiences were compared to what has been reported in the existing literature. Analysis of the relevant research literature revealed some unexplored issues concerning IT adoption within SMEs. Most of the published research has been conducted in developed countries, with little in developing or less developed countries. From those few, only one was conducted in Indonesia and it was about IT diffusion. The focus of previous studies was mainly to explore factors influencing IT adoption and they mostly utilised survey techniques to elicit the factors. The scant literature suggests that exploring IT adoption can be approached from three different perspectives: individualist, structuralist, and interactive process. This thesis uses the interactive process approach to explore how well those factors that have been well documented in the literature actually work in Indonesian SMEs’ IT adoption. As a result of our exploration, we formulated a model of an interactive process view of IT adoption within Indonesian SMEs. A qualitative approach was used to answer research questions and explore the participants’ experiences in depth. In this thesis, we used in-depth interviews to explore participants’ experiences. These interviews enabled us to draw out not only IT adoption processes but also successes and failures in IT adoption. Semi-structured interviews were used as the data collection tool. They provided guidance so the interviews stayed well within the focus of the thesis, yet provided room to explore new and relevant issues that emerged during the interview process. Content analysis of the interview transcripts was used to extract answers given during the semi-structured interviews and to identify new themes that emerged from the data. The analysis resulted in important findings. First, it confirms some factors found in the literature as actually influencing IT adoption in Indonesian SMEs. Despite some similarities, we found some differences such as government role and competitors’ influence on IT adoption. The other findings are concerned with the failures faced by some of the participants. We then explore the differences between failed and successful participants, and how Indonesian SMEs cope with and recover from failed IT deployment. Finally, we revised the initial model of the interactive process of IT adoption. The extended model captures new insights into success and failure of IT adoption, and could provide a better understanding of IT adoption within Indonesian SMEs. The interaction between different factors in the IT adoption shows how those factors influence each other and how different stakeholders could manage their own interests related to IT adoption. The improved model could be used to guide Indonesian SME managers to manage their adoption of IT more effectively.

Full textAbstract:
During the last decades, the circular economy has enabled a new kind of business model that is challenging the traditional linear way of doing business. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how an international social enterprise work towards a circular business model, as well as the challenges and opportunities that comes with operating in an emerging market. Previous research on the subject is limited which leaves a research gap in existing literature. Indonesia is an emerging country that is struggling with a weak recycling infrastructure and lack of waste management, which has resulted in an ocean plastic pollution problem. In the theoretical framework, relevant aspects of the circular economy, social enterprises and opportunities and challenges with operating in an emerging market are presented. A conceptual framework concludes the literature review by illustrating how the concepts ties together. In order to answer the research questions, a qualitative research method has been followed throughout this single case study, combined with an abductive approach. The data has been collected through semi-structured interviews presented together with secondary data, in order to get a deeper understanding of the case. By examining an international social enterprise with operations in an emerging market, findings on what opportunities and challenges this social enterprise encounter in Indonesia are presented together with how they work towards a circular business model. This study indicates that the international social enterprise challenges the linear way of doing business and can be set as an example for other companies that has a social mission and wants to do business in a sustainable way. The analysis discusses the relation between the theoretical concepts and the empirical findings, together with observations from the authors. The analysis is followed by the concluding chapter where the contributions are stated, and the research questions are answered, followed by implications, limitations and suggestions for future research. The findings showed that international social enterprises can find opportunities in infrastructure- and institutional gaps in emerging markets. In addition, the findings indicate that a strong social mission can reduce the challenges of operating in an emerging market. The findings have contributed to introducing the social enterprise phenomenon into the international business research field, as well as international social enterprises operating in emerging markets. The authors also provide their definition of the concept ‘social enterprise’.

Full textAbstract:
Research on small firm internationalization has been conducted intensively over the last few decades. However, knowledge of small firm internationalization varied. This research addresses the question of this variety in small firm internationalization applying the stage models theory, network theory, resource-based theory and international new venture. As the more recent studies showed that researchers have inclined towards one conclusive finding of the central role of the manager in internationalization, the key explanation of the inconclusive knowledge about small firm internationalization possibly resides in the decision made by the manager. Thus, this research explored the process of making an internationalization decision using rational decision-making process theory. To give a different perspective from the existing internationalization theories that have been developed around manufacturing firms in developed countries, this research was conducted on manufacturing firms in a developing country, Indonesia. A mixed-method approach was used to generate a model of internationalization decision-making process. The results showed that internationalization decision was a manager-centred activity and the manager’s capability and learning processes were essential in determining the decision. Accordingly, variety in managers’ capability was likely the cause of variety in small firm internationalization. Future research should be directed to the individual level of the manager instead of the firm or industry level if understanding internationalization of small firms is the aim. To be effectiveness, policy and programs addressing internationalization of small firms should consequently also be directed to increasing managerial capabilities and to providing real-life experience for learning.

Tarmizi, Achmad. "Corporate governance of family firms and voluntary disclosure : the case of Indonesian manufacturing firms." UWA Business School, 2007. http://theses.library.uwa.edu.au/adt-WU2008.0042.
Full textAbstract:
Weakness in corporate governance and lack of transparency are often considered causes of, or contributors to, the Asian Financial Crisis. Publicly listed companies in Indonesia, like other Asian firms, have a concentrated ownership structure. Focusing on manufacturing firms listed on the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) for the year 2003, this study adopts an agency framework to examine voluntary disclosures included in the annual reports of 149 Indonesian firms and their relationship to various attributes such as: ownership structure; whether a firm is family-owned or not; the owner's involvement in either the Board of Commissioners or Board of Directors; and whether the firm is affiliated with a business group. The results mostly support the notion that ownership structure affects the extent of disclosure in annual reports. First, the results show that, compared to firms with a nonmajority ownership structure, voluntary disclosure is lower in firms with a majority ownership structure. Second, the results indicate that family owned firms are more likely to exhibit lower voluntary disclosure than are non-family owned firms. Third, the analysis shows that, among family firms, firms with a majority (compared to those with a non-majority) ownership structure are more likely to have lower levels of voluntary disclosure. Fourth, the results indicate that, among family firms, firms affiliated with a business group are more likely to make lower voluntary disclosures than independent firms. In contrast, the empirical analysis failed to support the hypothesis that, among family firms, voluntary disclosure would be lower in firms where the owners are involved in the Board of Commissioners compared to those where there is no owner involvement in the Board of Commissioners. Similarly, the results failed to support the hypothesis that, among family firms, voluntary disclosure would be lower in firms where the owners are involved in the Board of Directors compared to those where there is no owner involvement in the Board of Directors. Robustness checks performed using alternate measures of disclosure and the degree of ownership structure did not substantially change the conclusions. This thesis contributes to our understanding of how family firms are governed and the impact of corporate governance on a firm?s level of voluntary disclosure. The results have implications for policy makers and regulators in Indonesia striving to improve corporate governance and transparency.

Full textAbstract:
There has been an unexpected wave of growth in social entrepreneurship globally (Bornstein, 2004). This growth is followed by the number of research in the field. Academic research has been mainly focused on defining what it is, what it does and does not have in common with commercial entrepreneurial activity (Nicholls, 2006). Thus, there has not been many studies related to the business model of social enterprise. Osterwalder & Pigneur (2010) believes that every organization has a business model, regardless the word ‘business’ not used as descriptor. This description includes social enterprise. Social enterprise, not unlike business enterprise, creates and delivers value and it must generate enough revenue to cover its expenses. By acknowledging that social enterprise has a business model, it opens itself to business model innovation with advantages to optimize its operations, deliver more values through effective channels, capture more values through profits and growth and drive innovation. This research is conducted on Indonesia Mengajar, a social enterprise in Indonesia that has no experience in business model design or Business Model Canvas using qualitative methods and interpretive paradigm. Primary data is collected from interviews with Indonesia Mengajar. Secondary data comes from books, articles, journals and websites. The data are analysed with grounded theory method. By completing Business Model Canvas (Osterwalder & Pigneur) complemented with literature review and critical analysis of Indonesia Mengajar, the objective of this research to understand business model of social enterprise can be achieved. From this research it is found that adjustments are necessary for Business Model Canvas to capture the business model of social enterprise and based on the findings, it is concluded how social enterprise creates, delivers and captures value.

Van, Diermen Peter. "Systems of enterprises : a study of small-scale garment and wood furniture enterprises in Jakarta." Phd thesis, 1995. http://hdl.handle.net/1885/123362.
Full textAbstract:
Indonesia’s labour force is expected to expand rapidly and urbanise
between 1995 and 2025. Much of the urban workforce continues to be engaged
in small-scale economic activity. In contrast to popular opinion, the growth of
employment in small-scale enterprises during the 1980s and early 1990s
compared favourably with that of large and medium-sized enterprises. Several
explanations have been suggested, but, none have been fully investigated. Thus,
this thesis has examined why small-scale enterprises have performed so well.
Looking ahead, it also has considered what future contribution small-scale
enterprises could make.
In investigating these two issues the thesis reviewed the appropriate
industrial development literature and derived a conceptual framework for
examining systems of enterprises. The framework emphasised both the intra-firm
relationships of small-scale enterprise and their inter-firm linkages. Enterprises
were put into their specific historical, place and industry context by interviewing
a large number of small-scale garment and wood furniture entrepreneurs and
their workers in three specific locations of Jakarta.
The analysis of the fieldwork data derived from Jakarta’s small-scale
garment and wood furniture enterprises highlighted the family’s dual function: it
served as both a social structure and an institutional organisation. This dual
function was crucial to the flexibility and success of small-scale enterprises. In
particular, small family businesses had different factor inputs of land, labour and
capital than large corporations. This resulted in small and large enterprises
having different product and spatial markets. Despite government initiatives to
promote inter-firm linkages between small and large enterprises these efforts had
not been significant in Jakarta’s small-scale garment and wood furniture
enterprises. Clustering of small enterprises in specific locations, however, had
been important. Their significance stemmed from the indirect benefits derived
from their close proximity to each other rather than from the formal linkages
between individual business enterprises.
Both Jakarta’s small-scale garment and wood furniture enterprises
offered wages comparable or higher than those of their large scale counterparts.
Recruitment to these industries was likely to continue to be through informal
networks, and characterised by high labour turnover and low job security. These
case studies did not represent a system of flexible specialisation nor did the small
firms fit neatly into the informal/formal sector dichotomy. Rather the conceptual
framework used in this thesis, emphasises the importance of studying systems of
enterprises comprising a continuum of firm sizes and focusing on intra- and interfirm
relationships.

Prawiranata, Iwan R. "Mergers and corporate governance, reforms of the state-owned enterprises in Indonesia." Thesis, 2005. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/17941/.
Full textAbstract:
The Government of Indonesia has maintained its ownership of the State-Owned
Enterprises (SOEs) to achieve various, and sometimes contradictory, economic and
political objectives. Although there have been efforts to improve the efficiency and
productivity of the SOEs, the performance of the enterprises has remained unsatisfactory
for some decades.
The study explored how mergers have been used as one of the strategies to
improve the efficiency and productivity of the state enterprises in 1988 and 1998. The
case study approach allowed the researcher to examine the relationships between various
factors that influenced the plantation company, PT Perkebunan Nusantara VIII's
performance. Management reforms, the implementation of the mergers, international
commodity pricing, and the ambivalent policies of the government were among the
factors analysed.
Merger is a well-known strategy to expand businesses and create shareholder
value. However, there is much controversy about its efficacy. The research found that the
mergers had mixed outcomes. Mergers had positive impact upon the plantation
company's performance, until government employment policies were introduced, with
the consequence that profitability was depressed. The government's intervention to
determine the plantation companies' economies of scale was not based on an economic
analysis, rather on the government's desire to create larger state plantation enterprises of
comparable size to the private plantations and conglomerates.
The government recognised the need to accelerate the reform and strengthen all
state enterprises. Consequently, since 2002, the state enterprises' managements have been
required to comply with good corporate governance practices, as these have been
determined by the government.
The study found that the merger of the SOEs did not change government
ownership as sole shareholder, nor did mergers decrease the government's intervention
into the running of its enterprises. If anything the government tended to intervene in the
management of state enterprises more frequently to fulfil its sometimes contradictory
economic, social and political objectives. The Indonesian government was reluctant to
cede the greater autonomy to the management necessary for effective reform.
The author believes that there is a need for further research in Indonesia on
government policies in regard to the ownership and government's treatment of the SOEs.
Further research is needed to address such questions as: Does the government have a role
to play in maintaining strategic economic assets in Indonesian ownership?

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems provide an IT platform with the capability to integrate various business functions both across and within a company. While Indonesian SMEs have recently begun to implement ERP in their operations, the systems remain under-utilised. Authors have recognised that Indonesian SMEs struggle with knowledge-related problems in their ERP system implementation projects, yet research investigating the role of knowledge management to leverage ERP systems in Indonesian SMEs is scarce.

Pramusinto, Agus. "The dynamics of change in decentralisation : implications for local government-business relations : a case study of decentralisation in Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia." Phd thesis, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/1885/110378.
Full textAbstract:
This study is about the impact of decentralisation on the business sector in the
district of Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia. It presents three themes in exploring
changes related to business people during the early implementation of the
policy: (1) services and local regulations related to the business sector and the
business people's responses; (2) corruption at the local level and its effect on
business people; and (3) emerging patterns of local government-business
relations.
In theory, decentralisation can bring the government closer to the people. It will
make better information available on the people's preferences for services
provided by the government. It will also enhance accountability and reduce
corruption in the government since people can more easily control local
governments' actions than those of the central government's. Devolving
power to the local government will change the relationship structure between
government and business. However, in practice, the study found that
decentralisation does not necessarily lead to positive impacts on the business
sector.
Ethnographic approaches were applied to gather and analyse data during the fieldwork. They included documentation investigation, surveys and in-depth
interviews. Fieldwork in Sidoarjo was conducted from November 2001 to July
2002. Current issues related to the Sidoarjo government have been explored
through Indonesian newspapers up to January 2005.
The research found that, in terms of services provided by the local government,
the results are mixed. The local government has espoused two contradictory
policies. Business-related services have been restructured to encourage the
existing business people and to invite new investors. Local taxes and levies
have also been reformed to increase local government revenue, but they have at
the same time hampered business activities. A certain group of business people can enjoy the facilitation of services, but others do not. Most medium-large
businesses suffer a lot from the new local regulations associated with the
increases in local taxes and levies, whereas small businesses have not been
affected.
Business people see corruption as a common phenomenon and regard it as
having mushroomed during the early implementation of decentralisation.
Actors involved are not only people in the bureaucracy but also those in the
local assembly, in NGOs, and journalists. However, corruption is not always
seen as a bad thing. The perception of business people towards corruption
depends on whether it directly affects their business activities or not.
Regarding the local government-business relations patterns, evidence in this
study shows that they do not form a simple picture. It depends on what type of
business is involved.
For local contractors, their relations with the local government have changed.
They are not subordinates of the local government any more and they can
influence the local government policy openly and collectively through their
business representation. Medium-large businesses hold a different model of
relations with the local government. They are represented formally in the
determination of the minimum standard of wages. Interestingly, the way the.
business people respond to the decisions is not collectively through their
business representation. Rather, they use individual connections and covert
relations with local government officials. In contrast, small businesses are not
greatly affected by the policy of decentralisation. The local government has
paid little attention to them, and they also do not rely on the local government.
In short, whether the decentralisation policy exists or not, their business
activities go on as usual.
In general, decentralisation has had different impacts on local government
regulations related to business activities. However, positive changes in
business-related services have been nullified by the increases in local taxes and levies. Corruption has not decreased, but tends to involve more actors at the
local level. From the business people's perspective, both changes in local
regulations and policies as well as in the extent of corruption have been
perceived differently according to the different types of business.
Decentralisation has also brought about new emerging models of relations
between local government and the business sector.
The findings of this research are important for the existing debates on
decentralisation. Although decentralisation is believed to improve development
at the local level, this is not necessary true in relation to business activities.
Devolving power to local governments has produced distortive policies that
make it difficult for business people to run their business. The problems of
decentralisation come from an unbalanced structure, that is providing local
governments with more employees but lacking financial capacity. Local power
holders also tend to misuse their power.

The contents of abstract in this thesis：
Small medium enterprises require innovation capability to achieve competitive advantage. Innovation is the basis for organizational survival. Innovation is more than a novel idea, but a process that includes developing the idea into a usable product or service to gain a competitive advantage. Based on previous empirical researches, this study investigates learning orientation, IT resource, innovation capability, entrepreneurship and their direct and indirect impact on business performance due to emphasizes the importance of innovation capability as the role on business performance. The sampling frame was listed from Cooperative, Industrial, and Trade Official in Kediri while the questionnaires were distributed to 228 SMEs at Kediri, East Java-Indonesia. The data collection adopt census which used all population as respondent and the usable respondents were 215, arriving effective response rate of 94%.
Data were analyzed using AMOS 17 Structural Equation Model (SEM) program. There were two-steps procedures of Structural Equation Model. First step is measurement model and the second step is structural model. This analysis also extends to include the difference traits of demographic variables using t-test and ANOVA. The empirical findings demonstrate that innovation capability and entrepreneurship has significantly positive impact on business performance respectively. Second, learning orientation has a significant and positive effect on innovation capability. Third, IT resource has significantly positive impact on learning orientation and innovation capability respectively. The result of variance analysis indicates that demographic variables have difference traits in effecting the extent of predicting variables except gender.

Full textAbstract:
The study of corporate governance of parent and subsidiary companies in the State-
Owned Enterprises (BUMN) in Indonesia has received little attention from the public. In
fact, an interlocking directorship between a parent company and a subsidiary is a
common occurrence in BUMN in Indonesia; it is called “board member duality”, a new
terminology proposed in this research. This terminology refers to the director of a
parent company who is simultaneously serving as the commissioner of a subsidiary
company. This addresses the gap found among several types of director duality which
generally fall under CEO duality, Interlocking, and Multiple Directorships.
