dc.description.abstractIssue of unemployment and social inequality among Indonesians are not news shocking, yet, it is still heavily debated among policy makers and socialist. It is believed that entrepreneurship will be the panacea for solving these socio-environmental issues. Thus, the objective of this study is to explore the significant influences of culture differences among Indonesians male and female on their entrepreneurial intention by three antecedents; attitude towards entrepreneurship, perceived desirability and perceived feasibility. Various similarities are identified in the literature regarding these three factors, but limited resources are acquired for cultural differences using Hofstede (2008) seven dimensions. Adopting the Values Survey Module (VSM) by Hofstede, the culture differences between male and female are able to be obtain by means of questionnaires with a total respondents of 137 and 111 respectively. Major cultural differences between both groups are observed upon analysis. Also, this study shows a positive significant relationship between attitude towards entrepreneurship and perceived desirability-confidence. However, it is not successfully proving the effect of culture has on the relationship. Nonetheless, these research findings have enriched previous intent-behaviour related study pertaining Asian countries. Captivatingly, this study may trigger the future research to be conducted excessively pertaining to the culture diversities and its influence on perception especially in behavioural approach of entrepreneurship.en_US
