https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/a46/article/view/43545
<p><em>This study analyzes the influence of consumer ethnocentrism, perceived quality, and brand awareness on consumers’ purchase intention toward Hoka-Hoka Bento in Bengkulu City, with brand image as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative explanatory method, data were collected from 150 respondents through purposive sampling and analyzed with PLS-SEM. The results show that perceived quality and brand awareness significantly influence brand image, while consumer ethnocentrism and perceived quality directly affect purchase intention. Brand image mediates the effect of perceived quality on purchase intention but not consumer ethnocentrism or brand awareness. The findings suggest that improving product quality and strengthening brand image are key strategies to enhance consumer purchase intention. The novelty of this study lies in examining consumer behavior toward a Japanese-inspired fast-food brand in a second-tier city, while its originality lies in testing the mediating role of brand image within an emerging market context where cultural perceptions strongly shape purchasing decisions.</em></p>FAJRIANSAH RAMADHAN ramadhanVeny PuspitaM.Noor ArmyEko Sumartono

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/a46/article/view/43714
<p><em>This study aims to examine the influence of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Environmental Disclosure on firm value, and the moderating effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG). The research adopts a quantitative approach using panel data regression. The sample consists of 20 mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2019–2024. Variables were measured using COSO for ERM, GRI 300 for Environmental Disclosure, and independent board proportion for GCG. Environmental Disclosure has a significant positive effect on firm value, whereas ERM does not show a significant effect. GCG significantly moderates the effect of ERM on firm value, but not the effect of Environmental Disclosure This study integrates ERM, environmental disclosure, and corporate governance in the mining sector context with a moderating variable approach. It contributes empirically by exploring the role of GCG in enhancing the value impact of ERM and environmental transparency. Firms should enhance environmental transparency and apply structured risk management supported by effective governance to improve firm value.</em></p>Kristiyanto KristiyantoIin RosiniAni Kusumaningsih

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/a46/article/view/44352
<p><em>Global demand for patchouli oil reaches around 1,500 tonnes annually, with Indonesia supplying around 70 per cent of total demand. The area under patchouli cultivation in Indonesia has declined by an average of 1.52 per cent per year, and patchouli production in 2024 is estimated to reach only 2,220 tonnes, a sharp decline of 14.17% compared to the 2023 figure. However, the price of patchouli at the farmer level in the domestic market is quite encouraging. Therefore, with the increase in patchouli prices, farmers are expected to be able to increase production and exports of patchouli products in the international market. Indonesia's patchouli export destinations are spread across the continents of Asia, Europe, and Africa. The researcher aims to analyse coffee exports (HS 0901) to the largest export destinations, namely Egypt, Malaysia, Italy, and Japan, although in this case, coffee export volumes have decreased. This study is a secondary data analysis using time series data from 2014 to 2023. The export data analysed pertains to clove exports with HS code 3301 to Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore, and France, using Revealed Comparative Advantage Analysis and the Trade Specialisation Index.</em> <em>Based on the results of the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) and Trade Specialisation Index (ISP) analyses, it can be concluded that Indonesian patchouli products have a very strong competitive position in the international market. The RCA values for several major export destinations, particularly Singapore, the Philippines, and Vietnam, indicate consistent comparative advantages.</em></p>Wan Adiwijaya AdiwijayaSiti Sabrina Salqaura
