The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality of entrepreneurship - motivation, entrepreneurial orientation, and risk behavior - in relation to the odds of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises' (MSMEs) financial performance in Indonesia. Additionally, this paper investigates how these qualities apply for the current challenges perceived by MSMEs' entrepreneurs in Indonesia due to Covid-19 crisis; specifically, this paper examines the odds of MSMEs' financial performance during the pandemic in respect to when these qualities are implemented by the entrepreneurs. The empirical data was obtained from an online survey by means of a structured questionnaire. MSMEs surveyed were randomly selected on a national scale. To test the hypotheses, a quantitative approach is employed, using multinomial regression. The main result shows that, under normal economic environment, the more intrinsically-motivated and continuity-driven entrepreneur is, the more likely the MSME will achieve financial growth compared to remaining stagnant. To our surprise, innovativeness leads to less likelihood of MSME's financial growth, suggesting the significance of innovation does not apply to MSMEs in Indonesia. Lastly, MSMEs' risk behavior to operate in a stable business environment is found more likely to result in a better performance and is true for operational and financial risks, but not marketing risks.

전 세계적으로 이상 고온, 폭우, 가뭄, 지진, 해일 등이 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 그 피해 규모도 앞으로 계속 커질 전망이다. 경제활동의 주체인 기업이 이러한 자연 재해로 인하여 지속적이고 안정적으로 운영되지 못하게 된다면 이는 기업자체는 물론 치 열한 글로벌 경쟁체제 속에서 국가경쟁력향상에 상당한 타격을 줄 수 있다. 하지만 우리나라의 기업은 선진국에 비해 상대적으로 자연재해 발생 시 체계적인 방재시스템을 구축하지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 자연재해저감기술 개발의 필요성과 선진국가의 사례들을 통한 우리나라의 자연재해저감기술이 나아갈 방향성을 모색하고자 한다.

This study utilizes the IPA (Importance-Performance Analysis) method to assess the importance, possibility, and urgency of using blockchain technology for fisheries sectors and the related policies. Based on a field survey targeting experts and stakeholders in the fisheries and blockchain technology sectors, the following major results and corresponding implications are drawn. First of all, the respondents of our survey have an outlook that the introduction and utilization of blockchain will be required in four major parts. These parts include i) the seafood' information system managed by the government or public institutions, ii) traceability and certification process for domestic and foreign seafoods, iii) meeting the need of seafood safety from consumers, and iv) taking prompt actions to seafood safety related accidents. Next, the seafood information system managed by the government or public institutions has been limited in maintaining information consistency and continuity once the fisheries ministries and departments are integrated, closed or partially transferred. Thus, it is assessed that the technology will be able to improve consistency and continuity of the seafood information in case of applying blockchain to the seafood information management system. This result that blockchain is necessary for the seafood information system have a significant implication in Korea's seafood management which has been independently controlled until now. Lastly, the application of blockchain to seafood traceability and certification systems has the most well-known cases through international and domestic pilot projects, and the results of our survey reflect this reality. Our results contribute to showing an additonal characteristics of blockchain in the fisheries sector, resulting in the possiblity that blockchain can be used for taking swift steps in the event of seafood safety accidents and meeting the need of seafood consumers for safety.

The authors try to find the answer in terms of customer value considering the phases of B2B transaction spectrum: transaction value, relationship value and appraisal value implementing empirical research. The result shows that the intension to retain the relation with an existing partner is formed by the trade-off between the benefit and cost of both contract value and relationship value and not the sole value was dominant. The unique point of the study is that current study is considering these two factors as dependent variables which affect the relationship continuity which is not the case in existing researches.
