As a region, Asia comprises communist China, democratic India and many small quasi-democratic and authoritarian states. Both China and India play a significant role in maintaining multilateral world order. Asia’s regional power remains with its enormous potential of resources for domestic markets and per capita purchasing power parity. Hence, the economic and the business aspects of the Asian region require comprehensive study. Sustainable operational excellence is a notion carried by an organisation’s sustainable economic development and other values. This study incorporates the multiple case study method. Twelve case organisations such as Tata Motors, Samsung, Nissan, Indigo, Mitsubishi, Huawei, Wilmar, Canon, NTPC, Hitachi, Singapore Airlines, and L&T were chosen to study their sustainability values, and operational and strategic strands. TISM (total interpretive structural modelling) method is used for model building; four variables such as operating activities, investing activities, financing activities, and SVE (Social value expenditures) are taken for empirical analysis. Based on the available secondary data, the study incorporated panel data regression analysis. The result shows that SVE positively and significantly explains operational activities that proxy with sustainable business practices. The study concludes with a Paux strategy framework for discussion and managerial implications.

The objective of study is to analyze the impact of modern market presence to performance of regional economic. Specification model using simultaneous equations and is suspected by the method of two stages least Squares. Using secondary data for series from 1980 to 2010. The results showed that the presence of a modern market significantly negative effect on the turnover of MSMEs trade sector. Conversely a positive impact on MSME sector of agriculture and manufacture. Scenario modern market presence is significantly negative effect on traditional markets. Number of traditional markets and local government original receipt (PAD) will be decrease. However, overall gross regional domestic product (PDRB) and purchasing power parity are increased, while the number of unemployed decreased. To reduce the negative impact of modern market presence can be done by restricted the license of modern markets, increased access to capital, increased market access by doing a partnership with a modern market.

The people of Turkey ought to be congratulated for their hard work in achieving a sustained record of economic stability with growth over the last decade or more. Unemployment rate, particularly given the continuous growth of workforce, and inflation, remain the significant challenges. Nevertheless, Turkey maintained its Gross Domestic Product (purchasing power parity) share of the world’s total and improved its GDP’s percentage on exports of goods and services. Turkey’s exports to the UK have been growing steadily from about $2billion in 2001 to about $8billion in 2010 with the exception of 2009. Turkish industries in various sectors have been producing quality goods. In view of the growing popularity of the oriental drink Turkish “coffee” and that of coffee houses in England, one of the most innovative products of Turkey is the coffeemaker.

Even though Greece has had an agriculture-oriented economy for decades, recently it has relied heavily on tourism, which now constitutes 30% of the national GDP. Successful developmental synergies of tertiary and primary sectors are still in question. Sustainability practices are still in their infant stage in both sectors of the economy, preventing development. This paper aims to study the relationship between tourism and sustainability in wine-related enterprises in Greece. This is achieved through an examination of the successful business practices of Greek wineries from the leading wine-producing region of the Peloponnese and the impact of sustainability toward their operational practices. Many studies have related sustainability to the wine industry and have recognized that for most wine-related practitioners, the first priority is leaving the land in a better shape for the next generation. The study focuses on illustrative successful Greek wineries that participate in the “Peloponnesian wine routes” cluster. Data were gathered from multiple sources, including secondary data, company records, internet information, face-to-face interviews and on-site observations. The analysis of data revealed a number of aspects between the sustainable wine tourism business practices explored and the way that innovation has evolved. Further studies on common denominators and distinguishing criteria between sustainable business practices would be valuable to researchers and practitioners, destination management organizations and regional development policy makers.

Abstract The current environmental challenges caused by the dependence on nonrenewable energy, increased waste disposal, the toxic emissions created by operational activities, and also the scarce supply of water are so complex and important that it requires immediate attention. Strict environmental legislation, market pressures, and urgent need for sustainability have given businesses no option but to ensure that they do all that is possible to ensure that their business operations are sustainable. This paper addresses the underlying factors that determine the extent to which organizations adopt sustainable business practices and cleaner production techniques and technologies. It had been concluded that ethics is linked to sustainable business practices, because the objectives of both these concepts are to think about doing what’s right for others and the world, including the environment. According to the organizational corporate compliance regulations, a company’s commitment to ethical business and sustainable business practices should be detailed in their policy handbook and communicated to all employees within the company (Sustainability Report 2013/2014).
