The NPS measures the relationship between customer loyalty and corporate growth as an alternative to the conventional customer satisfaction index because of its simplicity and ease of understanding for managers. However, because of its simplicity, the NPS has been criticized for not considering the culture and consumer characteristics of the various countries in which it is used. In this study, we review Japanese consumers' response styles and examine a more adaptable measurement scale to the Japanese market.\u0000Methodology/Technique - The sales data and customer NPS ratings of four companies in four industries—a cosmetics brand, a fashion e-commerce company, a daily necessities manufacturer, and a credit card company—were collected, and the relationship between them was analyzed to examine the validity of NPS classifications for the Japanese market.\u0000Findings –The study yielded the following results. (1) Customers who give the highest ratings tend to exert a more positive impact on corporate earnings through sales (spending amount). (2) Median spending amount intersects with the recommendation score at around 6. (3) On an ordinal scale from 0 to 10, the recommendation frequency significantly increases at 5. Moreover, this study reveals that the NPS classification of consumers is inconsistent with Japanese customers' actual situation.\u0000Novelty - As an alternative to the Net Promoter Score (NPS), the Promoter Score Japan (PSJ) is proposed to measure customer satisfaction and produce more accurate recommendations in the Japanese market.\u0000Type of Paper: Empirical\u0000JEL Classification: M31, M39.\u0000Keywords: Net Promoter Score; customer satisfaction; customer recommendation; response bias; net promoter ratio; extreme response style; midpoint response style \u0000Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Kimura, T.

A significant worry for health and quality of life is how to mature successfully and accept well-being. Considerable interest is also being shown in well-being-related topics. As a result, this study will look at the social variables, such as social networks, social support, and social activities, that can significantly boost elderly wellbeing.\u0000Methodology/Technique - Using purposive sampling techniques, 200 structured questionnaires were distributed to Malaysian seniors ages 60 and above.

However, no significant correlations were discovered between social activities, social support, and elderly well-being.

The outbreak and spread of this disease, coupled with supply-side constraints, led to sudden increases in prices by some businesses that managed to access products.\u0000Methodology/Technique - This paper outlines a qualitative analysis of consumer protection cases filed between April 2020 and March 2021 at the National Consumer Tribunal of South Africa. Consumer protection agencies play a central role in ensuring consumers' welfare, which is more accentuated in times of the Covid 19 pandemic and its aftermath.\u0000Findings – Results of the analysis of the contents of the cases show that South African consumer protection agencies acted with agility in line with their regulatory responsibilities. The cases examined in the study indicated that due to the relatively few cases able to be adjudicated, the National Consumer Tribunal had limited opportunity to contribute to the deeper consideration of the definitional development of the preventative intentions of the law in this regard. However, the Tribunal applied its mind to the definition of unfair pricing to respect consumers' rights in this regard.\u0000Novelty - The work of the Tribunal in interpreting necessary consumer rights to fair, reasonable, and just pricing is thus a lasting contribution to ensuring the realisation of these rights. In cases where businesses that were found to have not complied with the Regulations and were found to have engaged in prohibitive conduct and duly fined, it sends a strong message to businesses that the violation of consumer rights will not be tolerated, even in complex circumstances such as during the Covid 19 pandemic.\u0000Type of Paper: Empirical/ Review\u0000JEL Classification: M38; M20\u0000Keywords: Business practices during Covid pandemic; consumer protection policy; consumer rights; price gouging; Tribunal adjudication \u0000Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Best, L.

The further study aimed to determine the effect of brand perception, halal label, and product composition of cosmetics on habitual buying behaviour. Besides, this study also tests the mediating effect of perceived price.\u0000Methodology/Technique - This research was conducted on 169 respondents using open-ended questions. The survey sample is customers willing to take a field survey and come to the three largest cosmetic stores. The reason for choosing data collection on cosmetics stores in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, is the ease of access to this business. Second, Banjarmasin is a city with a number and quality of these cosmetic shops. It had specific difficulted regarding the customers who came to the store, and it seemed impossible to express the population size clearly. For data analysis, this study used SPSS ver.26 and determined the mediation effect using PROCESS macro version 4 model 4.\u0000Findings – The results of this study indicate that the most influential variables are product composition and halal labels. Meanwhile, brand perception contributes only 1% and is negative. This is because healthy and safe product composition will increase consumer confidence to buy repeatedly. In addition, the inclusion of halal labels is the essence of consumers and producers. This halal label intends to provide a sense of security for consumers and guarantee that the products produced are halal and ethical.

In the context of Indonesia, SOEs' executives are not officially the cadre of the Party, but some of them have a political connection to the ruling Party.

These findings suggest that independent boards with dual positions are incentivized to maintain their reputation, thereby decreasing fraudulent financial statements.\u0000Novelty - However, independent boards with political connections cannot overcome their conflicts of interest, so they cannot properly carry out their supervisory functions.
