In the fast moving world of business, it is a critical capability to be able to adapt and evolve to meet the changing and increasing demands of both consumers and stakeholders. As Charles Darwin once said, “It is not the strongest of the species that survives nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.” In the world, Japan has one of the highest numbers of companies over a hundred years old. I believe part of the reason behind this is a deep rooted value set, focused on the consumer and consideration for the environment in which they operate. It is no coincidence that these are the very same sustainable business practices at the heart of our organisation.

  • British American Tobacco's Submission to the WHO's
    British American Tobacco’s submission to the WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control This is the submission of the British American Tobacco group of companies commenting on the WHO’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. We are the world’s most international tobacco group with an active presence in 180 countries. Our companies sell some of the world’s best known brands including Dunhill, Kent, State Express 555, Lucky Strike, Benson & Hedges, Rothmans and Pall Mall. Executive summary • The WHO’s proposed ‘Framework Convention on Tobacco Control’ is fundamentally flawed and will not achieve its objectives. • The tobacco industry, along with other industries involved in the manufacture and distribution of legal but risky products, is the subject of considerable public attention. It is important that the debate about tobacco remains open, objective, constructive and free from opportunistic criticism if we are effectively to address the real issues associated with tobacco. • British American Tobacco is responsible tobacco. We seek to operate in partnership with governments, who are significant stakeholders in our business, and other interested parties, based on our open acknowledgement that we make a risky product and therefore support sensible regulation. • British American Tobacco shares the World Health Organisation’s desire to reduce the health impact of tobacco use. This paper outlines British American Tobacco’s proposal for the sensible regulation of tobacco. • Our proposal will relieve the WHO of the cost and bureaucracy involved in its wish to become a single global tobacco regulator, leaving it free to do what it should be doing – policy orientation. Some facts about tobacco • Today over one billion adults, about one third of the world’s adult population, choose to smoke.

Ketintang Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia Email: [email protected] *Corresponding author Oryza Ardhiarisca Politeknik Negeri Jember, Jl. Mastrip Kotak Pos 164, Sumbersari, Jember, East Java, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Abstract: The objective of this study is to examine the level of performance differences of cigarette industry companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) before and after the implementation of government policy that called PP. 109 in 2012. The research was conducted by using paired t-test. The results showed that there were significant differences in the level of bankruptcy and profitability potential before and after the application of PP. 109 of 2012. The results of the study failed to find any significant differences in the level of liquidity and solvency before and after the application of PP. 109 of 2012. The implications of this study based on the conclusions of the research results indicate that the application of PP No. 109 of 2012 needs to be reviewed again and need other solutions that can be done to maintain the operational sustainability of tobacco companies. Keywords: bankruptcy; government policy; liquidity; profitability; solvability; Indonesia. Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Putra, R. and Ardhiarisca, O.

  • An Economic Valuation of Urban Green Spaces in Kuala Lumpur City
    Pertanika J. Soc. Sci. & Hum. 26 (1): 469 - 490 (2018) SOCIAL SCIENCES & HUMANITIES Journal homepage: http://www.pertanika.upm.edu.my/ An Economic Valuation of Urban Green Spaces in Kuala Lumpur City Nur Syafiqah, A. S.1, A. S. Abdul-Rahim1*, Mohd Johari, M. Y.2 and Tanaka, K.3 1Department of Economics, Faculty Economics and Management, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM, Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia 2Department of Landscape Architecture, Faculty of Design and Architecture, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM, Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia 3Research Centre for Sustainability and Environment, Shiga University, Japan ABSTRACT An economic value of urban green space (UGS) in Kuala Lumpur (KL) city is estimated in this study. A global model and a local model are formulated based on hedonic price method. The global and local models were analysed with an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression and a Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) respectively. Both the models were compares to see which model offered a better result. The results of OLS regression illustrated that Titiwangsa and Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) offer the highest economic value for model 2 and 3 respectively. The results of GWR determined that the economic value of an UGS can be analysed by the region. The GWR result revealed that FRIM provides high economic value to all the residential areas in KL city. However, the economic value of Titiwangsa is not valuable for the residential areas in KL city including Mont Kiara Pines, Jinjang Selatan, Segambut Garden, Bandar Menjalara and Taman Bukit Maluri. As a conclusion, even though Titiwangsa generates the highest economic value, it is only significant at certain residential areas as proved by the local model.
