• The impacts of COVID-19 on seafood prices in Japan: A comparison between cheap and luxury products
  Kentaka Aruga; Md. Monirul Islam; Arifa Jannat
  PLOS ONE, Volume：18, Number：10, First page：e0291395, Last page：e0291395, Oct. 2023, [Lead, Last, Corresponding]
  Like many other countries, the economy and society of Japan have been severely affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, and the fishery sector particularly seafood is no exception. Among seafood, since luxury seafood is more commonly consumed at restaurants it has a higher possibility of getting affected by the pandemic compared with cheap popular seafood for the masses. Considering this motivation, this study investigates the variations in the COVID-19 impact on luxury and cheap seafood prices in the Tokyo Toyosu wholesale market. Using the non-linear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), the study identifies that an increase in the hours of stay-at-home during the initial stage of the pandemic is causing a negative influence on both cheap and luxury seafood prices and that this negative impact was severer in the luxury seafood prices. The study also finds a positive influence from the hours of stay-at-home on some cheap popular seafood like horse mackerel and sardine during the third state of emergency (SOE) where at least most of the elderly people have received their first vaccine dose but the negative impact from the SOE measure remained on luxury seafood. It is evident from the findings that the luxury seafood market is heavily dependent on the restaurant sector, which will likely suffer adverse effects when human mobility is restricted. In the event of a pandemic like COVID-19, policymakers should stabilize the price and provide subsidies to the luxury seafood stakeholders.

• Does the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hold for Coal Consumption? Evidence from South and East Asian Countries
  Qaisar Shahzad; Kentaka Aruga
  Sustainability, Volume：15, Number：6, First page：5532, Last page：5532, Mar. 2023, [Reviewed], [Corresponding]
  Coal consumption plays a key role in achieving sustainable growth, although it also leads to significant environmental degradation. This study examines the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) for coal consumption in South and East Asian countries from 1990 to 2020. We applied the augmented mean group (AMG) and common correlated mean group (CCEMG) estimators, which have several advantages over conventional panel techniques because it considers the endogeneity, slope heterogeneity, and cross-sectional dependency (CD). The study findings provide a comprehensive insight into the complex relationship between coal consumption and environmental degradation. The results show that EKC holds for coal consumption and reducing coal consumption is not enough to achieve environmental sustainability. The results also show that foreign investment and population positively impact coal consumption, while renewable energy negatively impacts coal consumption. This highlights that reducing coal consumption alone is not enough to reduce environmental degradation but there also needs to be a diversion of foreign investment inflow to the sustainable, environmentally friendly project. Furthermore, the share of renewable energy in total output is lower in South and East Asian countries, and it needs to be increased further. Furthermore, to promote renewable energy, foreign investment and population control may be necessary to achieve a sustainable environment while maintaining economic growth.

• Investigating Factors Affecting Institutional Investors’ Green Bond Investments: Cases for Beijing and Shenzhen

  Sustainability, Volume：15, Number：6, First page：4870, Last page：4870, Mar. 2023, [Reviewed], [Last]
  We conducted a survey of institutional investors in Beijing and Shenzhen to analyze the factors affecting green bond (GB) investing in China, such as credit rating, GB issuer, fund use, liquidity, redemption term, certification label, and type of currency. We then compared the results for Beijing and Shenzhen, including factors that affected greenium and the two cities’ willingness to pay (WTP). Using a double-bounded dichotomous choice contingent valuation method, we find that higher credit ratings tend to increase Beijing investors’ WTP and that the use of GB proceeds affects Shenzhen investors’ WTP. We also find that investors place importance on the type of currency, length of redemption term, and liquidity when investing in GB, while the certification label does not have an impact on WTP. The WTP for GB was higher among Shenzhen investors than among Beijing investors. These findings provide important insights for the government and financial institutions to take the right action to expand the GB market and to establish a GB framework that induces the financial sector toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

  The issuance of green bonds has been increasing since 2016 in China, and the number of papers covering the topic is growing. In previous studies on greenium, not much has been investigated from the institutional investors’ perspective. The study estimates the institutional investors’ level of greenium by surveying the institutional investors in Shanghai, China, from October 23 to 1 November 2021, using the double-bound dichotomous choice (DBDC) contingent valuation method (CVM). The study also analyzes the effects of variables that are known to be important for the green bond based on previous studies. The study identifies that there is a greenium level of 0.47%. Among the seven variables tested with logit regression models, the credit and currency of the bond had a positive effect on the greenium. The study provides helpful insights for issuers’ strategic planning and could be a stepping stone to increasing issuance not only for the Chinese green bond market but also for the global green bond market.

  In most cases, the official documents related to guidelines and frameworks are complicated, long, and hard to understand for general readers, regardless of whether the government and financial companies follow international standards or not. In this context, the current study examines how the green bond (GB) guidelines created by the Japanese government are aligned with the Green Bond Principles (GBP) and Climate Bonds Standard (CBS) through a text mining technique. It also investigates whether the GB frameworks for the Japanese public and private companies follow the GB guidelines of the Japanese government. While the CBS is the guideline that focuses on climate bonds, the GBP specializes in GB whose scope is broader. The word frequency and word cloud analyses identify that the documents created by the Japanese government and companies have more similarities with the GBP, indicating that the Japanese GB guidelines and frameworks are more aligned with the GBP than the CBS. A pairwise word network matrix analysis also reveals that the Japanese GB guidelines and frameworks are more focused on broader environmental issues and sustainability than the CBS, which had more similarities with the GBP than the CBS.

  To maintain a sustainable market for major non-cereal crops in Bangladesh, the present study evaluated the asymmetric effect of the key macroeconomic variables on the imported and exported non-cereal crops. In this connection, this study evaluated the nonlinear interactions and co-movements between the international market indicators such as the world prices, total trade amount, and gross domestic product per capita (GDPPC) and the market prices of potato and rapeseed in Bangladesh. Using yearly data from 1988 to 2019, we used the nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) model to investigate both short- and long-term market dynamics concerning the positive and negative shocks in the macroeconomic variables on imported and exported non-cereal crops. First, the study identifies that during the period investigated, the world potato and rapeseed prices led to an increase in the Bangladesh potato and rapeseed prices when they are increasing. Second, we find that the changes in the trade volume only have an influence on the potato price, both in the long-run and short-run. Finally, our findings revealed that domestic rapeseed prices tend to decrease when the GDPPC increases. Our empirical findings imply that it is important for market participants of potato and rapeseed in Bangladesh to take into consideration the sensitivity of the above-mentioned variables when designing resource allocation decisions in the event of positive and negative effects.

• Potential Economic Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic on South Asian Economies: A Review
  Md. Monirul Islam; Arifa Jannat; Dewan Abdullah Al Rafi; Kentaka Aruga

  The present research analyzes the potential economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on South Asian economies using a systematic review approach. The cause-effect relationship framework showed that the outbreak of COVID-19 slowed down the gross domestic product (GDP) along with major economic sectors and indicators in the South Asian economies. The short and long-run predicted scenario showed that, compared to the agriculture sector, the service and manufacturing sectors will be affected more seriously in all South Asian countries. It was found that governments in the region are trying their best to adopt and implement expansionary fiscal strategies to combat this situation. Many countries have included farmers and allied workers in the government’s support system to utilize resources. In order to maintain the balance of international trade, the import and export of essential items must be given special support. To cope with this situation, governments can invest money from different autonomous institutions to expand Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME). The findings of this research will be helpful for policy planners to formulate appropriate programs for short and long-run demands, along with economic and fiscal policies to sustain and revive the economic activity in South Asia.

• Energy Prices and COVID-Immunity: The Case of Crude Oil and Natural Gas Prices in the US and Japan

  The COVID-19 pandemic storm has struck the world economies and energy markets with extreme strength. The goal of our study is to assess how the pandemic has influenced oil and gas prices, using energy market reactions in the United States and Japan. To investigate the impact of the COVID-19 cases on the crude oil and natural gas markets, we applied the Auto-Regressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) approach to the number of the US and Japanese COVID-19 cases and energy prices. Our study period is from 21 January 2020 to 2 June 2020, and uses the latest data available at the time of model calibration and captures the so-called “first pandemic wave.” In the US, the COVID-19 pandemic had a statistically negative impact on the crude oil price while it positively affected the gas price. In Japan, this negative impact was only apparent in the crude oil market with a two-day lag. Possible explanations of the results may include differences in pandemic development in the US and Japan, and the diverse roles both countries have in energy markets.

• Are Environmentally Conscious Consumers More Likely to Buy Food Produced Near the Fukushima Nuclear Plant? An Investigation from a Consumer Survey　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
  ARUGA KENTAKA
  環境情報科学, Volume：28, First page：223, Last page：226, Dec. 2014, [Reviewed]
  The purpose of this paper is to understand consumer preference for food produced near the Fukushima nuclear plant in order to debunk radiation rumors. To achieve this goal, the paper mainly investigated the effects of environmental consciousness on the purchase behavior for food produced near the nuclear plant. According to our analysis, using consumer survey data, consumers that have high environmental consciousness tend to show preference for food produced near the nuclear plant. Our study also reveals that consumers who have trust in the current Japanese food radiation standards, aged, and male have positive effects on preference for food produced near the nuclear plant. On the other hand, income, education, number of children, and distance from the plant have negative effects on the preference.

  In the United States, recently the use of soybeans as an energy source has drawn attention. It is concerned in Japan that if the use of soybeans for energy keeps increasing, not only the price of conventional soybeans, which is used for soybean oil, but also the price of non-genetically modified organism (Non-GMO) soybeans, which is consumed for food, will increase. This paper examines the price relationships between the non-GMO and conventional soybean prices, and energy prices such as those of crude oil and ethanol using the cointegration methods. The results suggest that the prices of the non-GMO and conventional soybeans do not have price relationships with those of the energy prices. This implies that the non-GMO and conventional soybean markets are not affected by the energy markets.

  First, the results of the analyses for survey data obtained from the choice experiment indicated that people with higher altruism levels tended to be more willing to buy products from the disaster-affected region whose sales are partially donated to this region. Second, the study also finds that older and educated consumers were more reluctant to buy such products, while male and higher-income consumers were more positive about supporting the disaster regions through consumption. Third, the study examined whether the consumers’ social ties to the disaster-affected region influence the supporting behavior by comparing the consumers’ preference toward a Japanese product and a foreign one. The results revealed that even if the tie is a cultural one such as being a fan of music and drama of the foreign region, social tie can play an important role to foster consumers' support to donate to the disaster-affected region.

• A study about consumer behavior toward food contaminated with radioactive material after the Fukushima incident

  A survey for ten food products, including agricultural products with high production volume in Fukushima prefecture and water, is performed to understand the situation of the reputation damage after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. Nearly 8700 people from all parts of Japan responded to the survey. Through the study, I found that consumers that lack knowledge in radiation and live far away from the plant that are not familiar with products produced near the Fukushima nuclear plant are more likely to avoid products produced near the plant. It is believable that such consumers are likely affected by false reputation about the safety of food products produced near the plant. On the other hand, I also found that some avoidance behavior toward food produced near the plant is not attributed to false reputation. Some consumers avoid food produced near the plant because they are aware of the danger of radiation contamination and believe that actual risk persists in such products.
