The research aims to assess the impact of implementing the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) in Indonesia, which has one of the highest smoking rates worldwide. Utilizing a systematic literature review, the study analyzes global case studies and local tobacco control policies. The results suggest that the adoption of FCTC strategies, including raising tobacco taxes, enforcing comprehensive advertising bans, and establishing smoke-free environments, could significantly benefit public health and the economy. These benefits are evidenced by decreased healthcare expenses, reduced smoking rates, and enhanced economic productivity. Although there might be short-term economic challenges, the research supports that the long-term advantages of implementing the FCTC in Indonesia surpass these initial costs, making a strong argument for the adoption of these regulations. more...

Increasing global pollution and resources scarcity problems in marketplaces have resulted in Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) being placed as one of the most important themes of corporate strategies. This study explores GSCM and its relationship with sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) in the context of further directing a stream of future research on such dynamic and vital topic. We employ a bibliometric analysis to trace the dynamics of knowledge production in GSCM, specifically looking at its most salient research themes, trends and thought leaders within the field. The information used was obtained from the Scopus database, with a total of 234 documents coming out in years comprising 2020–2024. The analysis finds interesting themes like green practices integration, supply chain resilience and technology role in GSCM’s global application. The results underscore a critical need for further study and implementation of GSCM initiatives to both tackle key planetary challenges and safeguard supply chain resilience and sustainability. more...
