Human Capital And Gender Development On Economic Growth: A Case Study of Sumatera Barat 2010-2022

Ratih Ramadhani

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Human Development Index (HDI), Gender Development Index (GDI), and unemployment rate on economic growth in Sumatera Barat during the period 2010 to 2022. Economic growth as measured by Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita reflects the welfare of a region, so it is important to understand the factors that influence it, such as the quality of human resources and employment opportunities. Based on BPS data, economic growth in Sumatera Barat is still low compared to other provinces on the island of Sumatra. This study uses a dynamic panel data model with the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) approach to overcome endogeneity problems that may arise due to the reciprocal relationship between the independent variables and economic growth. The results show that HDI has a positive and significant effect on economic growth, indicating that improving the quality of education, health, and living standards can encourage economic growth in Sumatera Barat. GDI also has a significant positive effect, indicating that improving gender equality in human development plays an important role in supporting economic growth. In contrast, the unemployment rate shows a negative and significant effect, indicating that the high unemployment rate hinders regional economic growth.

Habibi Hasbi Sidiq

Access to land information in Indonesia is restricted, especially at the village and sub-district levels, where detailed data is essential for efficient land administration. This research aims to create a web-based Village Land Information System to improve regional land administration through the provision of organized, accessible, and dependable land data. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) methodology using a prototyping approach, gathering data through observation, surveys, and literature analysis. Data were examined using both descriptive and quantitative methods, with validation and reliability assessments conducted on questionnaires administered to 100 respondents. The assessment employed the End User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) and Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) methodologies. The system development encompassed multiple phases: requirements analysis, prototype design, implementation, functionality testing, and evaluation. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was utilized for system modeling, and user interfaces were crafted with a focus on usability. Functionality tests verified that all features functioned well, and user assessments revealed significant satisfaction with the system’s content, correctness, format, usability, and promptness. The application markedly enhanced land administration by providing comprehensive land information, facilitating access, elucidating service procedures, and systematizing data storage. The results illustrate the capability of web-based technologies to enhance regional land administration and facilitate village government in improving service delivery and land information management.

Trend of Poverty and Income Inequality towards Economic Growth (2020-2024): Bibliometric Analysis

Ripho Delzy Perkasa

With the end of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) program in September 2015, it was followed by a program agreed upon by the United Nations General Assembly (UN), namely the Sustainable Developments Goals (SDGs). The goal of this program is to reduce poverty by 50% in every country in the world. One of the 17 global goals of the SDGs Program that has been set is found in the eighth point, namely decent work and economic growth, which discusses increasing economic growth that is able to create broad access and opportunities for all levels of society in an equitable manner, improve welfare and reduce gaps between groups and regions. This article conducts a bibliometric analysis of the literature on poverty and income inequality research trends on economic growth to gain in-depth insights into the research focus, trends, and relevant scientific contributions. Through a bibliometric analysis approach, 500 published articles accessed on 27 September 2024 that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed using tools such as Microsoft Excel, Publish or Perish, and Vosviewer. After limiting to the last 5 years (2020-2024), 205 articles were obtained, after which restrictions were made on document type, 163 articles were obtained and finally limited to articles in English, 154 articles were obtained which will be the reference material in writing this article. The results show that the interest and focus of research on poverty, income inequality and economic growth has increased significantly, reaching a peak in 2023 at 41.27% of scientific research in economics. This trend reflects an awareness of the importance of understanding and maintaining the stability of economic growth rates in a country, in other words, especially how growth should work in the economy, so as to reduce poverty, unemployment, inequality and expand access to employment.

The Impact of Economic Growth, Inequality, and Resource Depletion on CO2 Emissions in Indonesia: Evidence from ARDL Model

Annisa Annisa

This study aims to investigate the impact of natural resource depletion, economic growth, and income distribution inequality on CO2 emissions in Indonesia. Using time series data obtained from the World Bank for the period 1990–2021. Applying the Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to test the relationship between variables simultaneously in the short and long term and testing the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis. The findings show that natural resource depletion, economic growth, and income distribution inequality have positive signs and have a significant effect on CO2 emissions in both the short and long term. Likewise, strong evidence of the existence of an inverted U-shaped EKC is also appropriate in Indonesia. The implications of this study underscore the importance of Indonesia implementing comprehensive policies that address the linkages between economic growth, environmental sustainability, and social justice. Given the significant impact of natural resource depletion, prioritizing sustainable resource management practices, such as forest conservation, responsible mining, and efficient resource utilization, is essential.

The Design of Tax Incentive Policies to Promote Productivity in the Creative Economy Sector: A Study in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia

Laili Restiani

The creative industry is increasingly contributing to the enhancement of national economic activities. The government should actively support the productivity growth of this sector. Bandung, a city in West Java, Indonesia, excels in arts, culture, and the creative economy. To support this sector, the local government, with their fiscal capability, should formulate appropriate and feasible policies that enhance the productivity of the creative economy. This study proposes a design of a tax incentive policy to support the productivity enhancement of this sector in Bandung. It also examines the challenges in formulating appropriate tax incentives. This research employs a qualitative method, collecting data through in-depth interviews with key informants, literature reviews, and documentation studies. The findings suggest that the government should implement tax incentives to reduce the burdens of the Land and Building Tax and the Specific Goods and Services Tax on arts and entertainment services. Challenges in formulating these tax incentives faced by the local government include the lack of evidence-based policy principles in policymaking, insufficient coordination between the government and creative economy, inadequate policy dissemination, and limited human resources in terms of both quality and quantity in the Regional Government. Additionally, the study highlights the importance of supporting policies beyond tax obligations and establishing administrative requirements for utilizing tax incentives. This study might serve as a lesson for other local government policymakers in designing tax incentives for creative businesses.

Global Financial Crisis, Capital Inflow And PolicyTrilemma:An Analysis of The Nigeria Experience

olaosebikan oluwabusola ikeoluwa OLAOSEBIKAN

Abstract

The 2008 Global Financial Crisis (GFC) significantly disrupted economies worldwide, including Nigeria, Africa's largest economy. This study investigates Nigeria's experience during the GFC, focusing on the dynamics of capital inflows and the policy responses to the policy trilemma. The trilemma posits that a country cannot simultaneously maintain an independent monetary policy, open capital account, and a fixed exchange rate. Nigeria's reliance on oil exports and susceptibility to capital flow volatility exacerbated the economic turbulence during the GFC. This paper utilizes a general equilibrium model to analyze the interplay between monetary policy, capital inflows, and exchange rate regimes. Employing the nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (NARDL) and linear autoregressive distributed lag models, the study reveals that while monetary policy effectively promotes growth under a flexible exchange rate regime, fiscal policy proves more potent under a fixed exchange rate regime. The findings underscore the necessity of a policy mix and structural transformation to maintain internal and external balance, particularly in the face of global financial cycles and crises. This study contributes to the understanding of policy coordination, macroeconomic stability, and capital flow management in developing economies like Nigeria.

Exploring the Causal Relationships Between Economic Growth, Poverty, and Income Inequality in ASEAN

Feny Marissa

This study investigates the causal relationships between economic growth, income inequality, and poverty in 6 ASEAN countries. Despite notable economic growth in these nations, income inequality and poverty remain persistent challenges. Using the Granger causality test, the findings reveal a two-way relationship between economic growth and income inequality, supporting the Kuznets curve hypothesis. However, no causal relationship is observed between economic growth and poverty, nor between income inequality and poverty. These results highlight that economic growth does not automatically define into reduced poverty or inequality, emphasizing the need for inclusive policies. Recommendations include promoting equitable growth, investing in education and skills development, strengthening social security systems, and fostering regional collaboration.

Perspective Of Grit Condition Perspective Of Grit Conditions On Intention Job Hopping Of Millennial Generation Industrial Workers

Deden Sutisna

It is difficult to imagine if the grit conditions owned by workers in an industrial company are unknown and measured, especially since these workers are part of the millennial generation, which is notoriously difficult to manage. It is also tough to determine whether or not grit depends on job hopping and vice versa. Job hopping determines the grit of workers in this sector. Worker grit correlates with job hopping and positive changes in management performance. Using a quantitative approach, 100 questionnaires were collected from 328,673 working populations in the industrial sector in Purwakarta Regency, West Java, Indonesia. The variable of worker grit increased job hopping and there was a correlation between grit and positive changes to worker job hopping. It is recommended that the management continue to manage the grit of these workers with a persuasive policy approach so that job hopping is well maintained. A big challenge for management is how to manage their work behavior, which is constantly changing, and this trend will continue to be inconsistent according to their character at work.

The EXAMINE THE IMPACT OF DEBT, FIX ASSETS AND SALES ON NET PROFIT AT MANUFACTURING COMPANIES LISTED ON THE INDONESIAN STOCK EXCHANGE

Elly Lestari Lestari

Competition in the business world is getting hotter due to the relatively rapid growth of the industry. So, to complete its operational responsibilities, industrial organizations need to make the best use of the existing possibilities. Net profit can be increased by better management of debt, fixed assets, and sales. Businesses listed on the IDX involved in manufacturing will be the focus of this study from 2016 to 2022. Our goal is to establish the relationship between revenue, expenses, debt, and fixed assets. Several linear regression analyses were conducted on the collected data. Sales and fixed assets were shown to have a positive effect on net profit, while debt was found to have a negative effect. The three main factors that simultaneously affect net profit are sales, fixed assets, and debt. Findings from the determination coefficient analysis, the independent variables accounted for 42.6% of the variation in net profit, while other variables, such as working capital and operating costs, accounted for the remaining 57.4%. These findings can be a reference in making policies for companies to increase net profit so that it becomes a benchmark for company performance. Sales are a crucial variable that has a significant impact on net profit.

ris yuwono yudo nugroho

The study aims to learn about the non-cash payment preferences of culinary tourism managers in Madura. Using the Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, the study identified factors that influence culinary tourism managers' preferences for non-cash payment methods. The study covers Madura's four districts. According to the findings of the study, when it comes to payment methods, culinary tourism managers prioritise convenience. The most common payment method is cash, then non-cash payments made other than through QRIS and payments made using QRIS. The difficulties in using QRIS are due to various factors, including the fact that they have never used it, that there are technical obstacles, and that use has not yet developed. One suggestion is for the government to improve technological infrastructure and internet networks in the Madura region to speed up the adoption of financial technology in the tourism sector.

The Implementation of Sustainable Finance in Supporting Green Economic Growth in the Indonesian Banking Sector

Rita Zulbetti

Green economic growth is an approach to economic growth that has become a global priority for sustainable development. The role of resource allocation efficiency is explored in relation to green economic growth, determined by the green financing practices, sustainable finance policy, and green financial products. The approach of Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was used as a quantitative method. The study population was 107 financial institutions based on OJK 2024. A purposive sampling technique was used, involving 168 respondents from 84 banks, including senior managers, heads of divisions, and executives responsible for implementing sustainable finance policies, with an average of two respondents per bank. The findings indicate that green financing activities, sustainable finance policy, and green financial products directly impact green economic growth. These relationships were mediated by resource allocation efficiency. In addition, this study carries meaningful implications for practice, emphasizing the role of the banking sector in promoting green product innovation, sustainable policies, and efficiency of resource management. In summary, the banking sector is strategic to developing green economic growth. Future studies may widen their attention to non-financial sectors or measure the transformation of digital technology in facilitating green financing to support sustainable development.

The Role of Coal Mining: Opportunities and Challenges for the Energy Transition (Case Study of Lahat Regency, South Sumatera)

Muhammad Subardin

This study aims to analyze how the role of coal mining in Lahat Regency, South Sumatra Province, on the regional economy and community welfare is associated with opportunities and challenges towards the energy transition. The data used in this study are secondary data, namely input-output tables. The method of preparing the input-output table uses the RAS method in the form of a matrix of 52 sectors/subsectors. The results showed that the role of coal mining as seen from the increase in the contribution of the coal mining sector in the GRDP of Lahat Regency has relatively not increased the level of community income and employment opportunities. The income multiplier of the coal mining sector is only 0.195123 and ranks 29th. The labor multiplier is also relatively small at 0.0015 and ranks 30th. The agriculture, trade, small industry, and services sectors still play a role in creating income and employment opportunities in Lahat Regency. The energy transition will probably lead to a decline in the role of coal mining in the regional economy. Currently, the development of the service sector has become a damper of the clash between the traditional agriculture-based sector and the modern sector based on the coal mining industry. Furthermore, increasing the productivity and efficiency of the agricultural sector is the basis for economic transformation to the industrial and service sectors, which play an important role in the energy transition era.

KATA PENGARUH DANA DESA DAN STATUS DESA TERHADAP PENANGANAN STUNTING DI KABUPATEN PESISIR SELATAN

Nisa al iffah

This study aims to analyze the influence of the Village Fund and Village Status on stunting in Pesisir Selatan Regency. Using a quantitative approach with multiple regression methods, this study measures how Village Fund allocations and village status contribute to reducing stunting rates. Data was collected through documentation study techniques from relevant agencies and processed to ensure statistical assumptions such as normality, multicollinearity, and homoscedasticity were met. The results show that the Village Fund has no influence on stunting reduction, while the IDM shows a significant influence. This indicates that budget allocations directed towards health and nutrition programs do not have a direct impact on stunting reduction compared to general village infrastructure improvements. This conclusion emphasizes the importance of prioritizing allocations. These results indicate that even if a village achieves progress in terms of infrastructure, economy, and public facilities, it can still reduce the problem of stunting.This study also suggests expanding the scope of variables in the future to enrich the understanding of the factors that affect stunting more comprehensively.

A Closer Look at WTP: Economy Perspective in Gringsing Weaving Cultural Industry

Desak Made Marysha Dewi

Gringsing weaving from Tenganan Village is famous for its unique indigo blue dye from the tawum tree, but traditional awig-awig rules prohibit dyeing within the village due to environmental concerns like groundwater contamination. To address this, dyeing takes place in Bugbug Village, using local rivers for waste washing and saltwater soaking, which improves dye quality. Weavers are willing to pay for these services, prompting a study to analyze the factors influencing their willingness to pay (WTP) through focus group discussions with weavers and government stakeholders. The research employs MICMAC analysis, identifying cultural capital and awig-awig as crucial factors affecting WTP. Additionally, findings from Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) analysis reveal strong influences from cipr and income on WTP. These insights highlight the need to support cultural and environmental factors alongside financial empowerment to ensure the economic sustainability and cultural integrity of the Gringsing weaving industry

COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT MODEL IN MINING AREAS TO IMPROVE WELFARE

Haryadi Haryadi

Abstract

Jambi Province holds significant potential in the coal mining sector, contributing substantially to Regional Original Revenue (PAD) and supporting the local economy. With the sixth-largest coal reserves in Indonesia, these resources are spread across key districts such as Sarolangun, Muaro Jambi, Tebo, Batanghari, and Bungo. The coal mining sector provides economic benefits through job creation and infrastructure development but also poses social and environmental challenges, including air pollution, road damage, and water quality degradation. Large companies like PT Aneka Tambang and PT Karya Bumi Baratama contribute to community empowerment through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs in education, health, and economic sectors.

This study aims to (1) analyze the social, economic, and environmental impacts of coal mining activities in Jambi Province, (2) evaluate the effectiveness of empowerment programs implemented by companies through CSR, and (3) design an empowerment model that can improve the welfare and economic independence of communities surrounding the mines. The research methodology includes field surveys, SWOT analysis, and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to determine program priorities.

The findings reveal that CSR activities around the mines positively impact community welfare; however, there are challenges in program sustainability and limited community involvement in planning. The SWOT analysis identifies strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, such as community dependence on the mining sector and significant environmental impacts. Based on AHP results, priority programs identified include skills training, support for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and the enhancement of educational and health infrastructure to create a sustainable impact. To maximize the economic benefits of mining, a community empowerment model focusing on economic diversification and community engagement is needed. This study recommends collaboration between companies and the government to develop inclusive and sustainable programs aimed at improving the welfare of communities surrounding mining areas.

The Evaluating Performance Reporting in Jambi’s Provincial Government;

Muhammad Gowon

Government performance measurement continues to be a focus point for both academic researchers and public administration practitioners, with particular attention on performance measurement systems (PMS) as tools to improve governance. In Indonesia, despite ongoing advancements, the effective implementation of PMS in local governments remains challenging, often hindered by limited resources and capacity. This study examines the role of public accountability regulations on performance reporting within Jambi’s provincial government through the lens of neo-institutional theory, focusing on the alignment with national mandates. Since the introduction of national performance reporting regulations in 1999 under President B.J. Habibie, local governments have faced both progress and persistent obstacles in achieving efficient, measurable public service delivery.

Our findings detail the 2023 performance report for Jambi’s local government, which under Governor Dr. Al Haris, articulates strategic objectives, performance indicators, and budget utilization, achieving an average performance target of 100.3%. This study underscores the PMS as a mechanism to combat bureaucratic inefficiency, translating policy outcomes into actionable results that address citizen needs. By highlighting these findings, we contribute to the broader discourse on public sector performance management, offering insights into the regulatory, managerial, and operational nuances of implementing PMS in Indonesia’s public sector.

Analysis of technical efficiency and socio-economic factors influencing the development of smallholder oil palm plantations in Batanghari Regency, Indonesia

Yanuar Fitri — 2023-02-28

This study aims to analyze technical efficiency and the influence of socio-economic factors on the development of smallholder oil palm plantations. Data were collected using the Simple Random Sampling method, utilizing both primary and secondary data. The analytical methods employed include descriptive analysis and the Stochastic Frontier Production Function with the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method. The results reveal that the average size of oil palm plantations is 3.9 hectares per farmer, with a productivity rate of 13,853 kg/ha. Production factors such as land area, NPK fertilizer, urea, and dolomite fertilizer significantly influence production, whereas labor and herbicides show no significant effects. The technical efficiency levels range from 0.81 to 0.95, with an average of 0.86, which is greater than the threshold of 0.62, indicating that oil palm plantations operate at a technically efficient level. Socio-economic factors, including land area and plantation distance, potentially increase technical inefficiency but have no statistically significant effect. Conversely, variables such as farming experience, access to technology, and active participation in farmer groups help reduce technical inefficiency. To promote the development of smallholder oil palm plantations, it is crucial to focus on enhancing technical efficiency, as it directly impacts productivity. Additionally, consideration of farmers' socio-economic conditions and external factors such as market prices and environmental conditions is essential.

Habibie, local governments have faced both progress and persistent obstacles in achieving efficient, measurable public service delivery.

Fertility decline and economic recession: Japan's economic growth challenges amidst a demographic crisis

Hamira Hamira

This study explores the impact of demographic factors, such as declining fertility rates and an aging population, on Japan's economic growth from 1960 to 2022. Additionally, the research examines macroeconomic variables, including healthcare expenditure, interest rates, and inflation, that influence Japan's economy. The study utilizes quantitative time-series data and employs the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) method to assess the effects of these variables on Japan's economic growth, both in the short and long term. The findings reveal that population aging has a significant negative impact on long-term economic growth, while fertility rates have a negative but statistically insignificant effect. Healthcare expenditure shows a positive and significant impact in the long term, though it is not significant in the short term. High interest rates reduce economic growth in the long term, while inflation has a significant influence on Japan's economic growth in the long term.

The recent global boycott movement has impacted several multinational companies, including Unilever. In response, many Indonesian consumers have begun to limit their purchase of Unilever products, which they perceive as supporting unethical practices, opting instead for alternative brands. This study aims to examine the influence of Product Knowledge (X1), Religiosity (X2), and Electronic Word of Mouth (X3) on Brand Switching (Y) among Unilever consumers in Ambon City. Using a purposive sampling method, a quantitative survey was conducted with 100 respondents who have previously used Unilever products. Data analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 23, employing multiple linear regression techniques. Findings reveal that Product Knowledge has an insignificant negative effect on Brand Switching, whereas Religiosity and Electronic Word of Mouth have a significant positive influence. The model accounts for 64.8% of the variance in Brand Switching, suggesting that other factors also contribute. These findings offer insights into the key drivers behind brand-switching behaviour in the context of social activism, emphasizing the role of consumer religiosity and online peer influence.

To earn or to be productive? A case of working married women in Tanah Datar

Fajar Wisga Permana

Female’s job participation and productivity are commonly found to be rather unique and not necessarily depends on certain factors assumed to be dominant in conventional ways. We would like to investigate in Tanah Datar, where pathriarcal values are highly held by the society, if the widely-known factors of human capital are still relevant to explain the dynamics of female’s job participation, earning and productivity, especially for those who have been married. By using the dataset of Sakernas (National Labor Force Survey) 2023 and taking into account the exclusion of selection bias in our model, we find that married women in Tanah Datar do not always consider to be engaged and productive at work using their human capital. In fact, our findings suggest that even if the human capital factors are relevant, the amount of earning matters still more than productivity, especially for those relatively lower in human capital level.

Exploring the Relationship between the Gender Inequality indicators on Income per capita in Indonesia: An Empirical Analysis of 34 Provinces in 2017-2021

Vinny Dwi Melliny

Gender inequality remains a pervasive problem in Indonesia, with significant gaps in women's labor force participation, education, and economic outcomes. This paper aims to identify the factors affecting income per capita in Indonesia and explore the relationship between gender inequality and economic growth. Using panel data regression analysis, we find both male variable and female variable in gender inequality indicators have a significant positive effect on income per capita and are explained in Modelsodel. To reduce gender inequality, we propose policies such as increasing access to education and training for women, promoting women's entrepreneurship, strengthening social protection programs for vulnerable women, and implementing affirmative action in the workplace. These policies are based on successful examples from other countries, such as Sweden, Norway, and Rwanda. By implementing these policies, Indonesia can promote gender equality and achieve more inclusive and sustainable economic growth.

Gender Inequality and Food Security in Rice-Farming Households: The Role of Decision-Making and Resource Access in Jambi Province, Indonesia

Junaidi Junaidi

This study investigates the impact of gender inequality in decision-making on food security among rice-farming households in Jambi Province, Indonesia. Gender disparities, particularly in access to resources and agricultural decision-making, influence household food security and productivity. The study analyzes 214 households across selected villages in Jambi Province by employing a two-stage stratified sampling method and using a combination of primary household survey data and secondary data from related institutions. Findings reveal that households with male-dominated decision-making tend to experience higher food security. In contrast, households led by females or joint decision-making face more challenges, particularly in resource access. Key assets such as land ownership and the educational level of the household head significantly support food security. At the same time, access to market information also plays a positive, albeit not always significant, role. Conversely, participation in training programs without accompanying resource support and involvement in off-farm employment show limited benefits or even negative impacts on food security. The study concludes that gender-inclusive policies, particularly those improving women’s access to education, land, credit, and market information, are essential for enhancing household food security. Recommendations include the development of targeted microcredit programs, integrated training with resource access, and policy support for collaborative decision-making at the household level. By addressing gender disparities in resource access and decision-making, this research aims to contribute to sustainable food security improvements within the rural agricultural communities of Jambi Province.

Socio-economic Determinants of Subjective Well-Being Among the Older Population in Jambi Province

Hardiani Hardiani

This study aims to analyze the subjective well-being of older people in Jambi Province and the socio-economic factors influencing it. This research uses survey data from a number of elderly respondents to measure subjective well-being through indicators of life satisfaction, health, and social support. The findings indicate that the level of subjective well-being among older people is influenced by factors such as education, family roles, and support from family members and the surrounding community. Elderly individuals with higher education levels and the role of head of household tend to have better subjective well-being. Social support, especially from family, plays a crucial role in maintaining the quality of life for older people. However, elderly individuals without a steady income or old-age benefits experience a decline in life satisfaction. Based on these results, this study suggests enhancing social security programs and specialized health support for older people in Jambi Province to improve their well-being in later life.

Testing the Contribution of Unemployment Rate as a Mediator between SMEs and Economic Growth

Malik Cahyadin

Increased economic growth and reduced unemployment in developing countries can be reinforced by better business quality of SMEs. SMEs are the dominant business scale in Indonesia's industrial structure. Therefore, this study investigates the relationship of SMEs to economic growth with unemployment rates as a moderating variable in West Java, Central Java, and East Java Provinces during 2015-2022. Structural Equation Modeling was applied to 96 observations. The findings reveal that the number of SME business units has a significant and negative impact on the unemployment rate, while total assets has a positive impact. In addition, a decrease in the unemployment rate has a beneficial effect on increasing economic growth following Okun's Law with a relatively low level of magnitude. The government is encouraged to improve the facilitation of SMEs' business development, starting by improving production process standards, availability of business capital, and market access. This facilitation is better known as UMKM Naik Kelas (SMEs Scale Up).

MAYOWA ARIYIBI

The overall financial performance of a corporate entity, has continually been affected by the costs that is expended through the notion of aligning the interest of the managers and the agency, has proposed by the agency cost theory in corporate finance palace. Based on the inconclusiveness in literature, this study examines into the impact of agency cost on financial performance of quoted firms in Nigeria. The study conceptualized and empirical examined the impact of monitoring cost (asset utilization), audit fee (contracting cost) and operating ratio (bonding cost) on the book-based (return on equity) and market-based (earnings per share). The secondary data was sourced from audited financial statement of ten industrial and manufacturing companies listed on the Nigeria stock exchange group from the period of 2019 to 2023. The findings from the GMM (Generalized Method of Moment) revealed for the model one that asset utilization (monitoring cost), Audit fee (contracting cost) and operating expenses ratio (bonding costs) has positive significant effect on return on equity. Model two revealed that asset utilization (monitoring cost), Audit fee (contracting cost) has positive significant effect on earnings per share. It is therefore concluded that firms should prioritize improving asset utilization as a means of enhancing profitability. Implementing robust monitoring mechanisms to ensure the efficient use of assets can significantly increase both return on equity and earnings per share.

Saraswati Saraswati

Determination of the location of Small and Medium Enterprises Industries must be accompanied by the establishment and spatial planning of industrial areas. Based on the mandate of Law No. 3/2014, the processing of local natural resources through industry must be improved both sectorally and spatially. This study analyzes the spatial determination of small industry centers using several analytical methods, including location quotient (LQ), shift share, accessibility index, completeness of basic infrastructure facilities, site analysis, small industry player participation approach, master plan, and business feasibility or business plan. A Small and Medium Industry Center is a central location for a group of small and medium industries that are separate from residences, produce similar or several types of products, and are located in an area that follows the regional spatial plan. This study produces types of potential local resources, types of small industries, involvement of local communities, spatial determination, master plans, and business feasibility.

The Impact of Institutional Quality, Market and Government Size on Corruption by Countries' Income Category

Hendra Kusuma

The government's openness in managing the economy can boost growth but also create potential for policy abuse. A research study analyzed panel data to investigate the relationship between economic openness and corruption using the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) in 139 countries from 2013 to 2023. The findings indicate that factors such as government integrity and financial freedom influence the CPI across countries with varying income levels. Countries with flexible business regulations, transparent governance, strong legal protections for property, and stable monetary policies tend to have lower levels of public sector corruption. In contrast, financial freedom and investment freedom have a negative impact on CPI. The negative relationship between investment freedom and CPI in lower-middle-income countries shows that in some countries, excessive investment freedom without sufficient regulation can increase opportunities for corruption, perhaps due to a lack of transparency in capital allocation and foreign investment. Conversely, in middle-income countries, recognition of property rights, government integrity, and freedom to invest play vital roles in reducing corruption levels. Overall, the study highlights that reducing the government's involvement in economic management while maintaining effective oversight is crucial for combating corruption.

The Influence of Education and Skills on Women's Labor Force Participation: Human Capital Approach and Leisure Choice Theory

Nisa al iffah

In 2021, the male labor force participation rate in Indonesia will reach 85.21%, while female participation is only 62.63%, showing a gap of 22.58%. This research describes the factors that influence female labor force participation in Indonesia using human capital theory, labor supply theory, and labor Leisure Choice theory. Using the logit method and Sakernas data for August 2021 (sample 393,359 people), it was found that education level, certified training, marital status, ownership of health insurance, and work experience had a significant effect on female labor force participation. Education and training levels weaken positively with increasing work participation. Marital status and possession of health insurance also made positive contributions, indicating the role of social support and financial security. However, the number of working hours and regional classification of residence negatively influenced participation, limiting the challenges of women with high workloads or living in areas with limited economic accessibility. These findings underscore the complexity of factors influencing women's labor force participation in various social and geographic contexts in Indonesia.

Analysis of Cyclical Unemployment Impacted by Covid-19 in Indonesia: Inter-Island Study Based on 2020 Sakernas Data

Wise Harumi

Cyclical unemployment emerged during the recession due to the Covid-19 pandemic, most of which is temporary unemployment. Temporary unemployment due to Covid-19 is different from permanent unemployment. This research aims at analyzing the risk of individuals across the islands in Indonesia becoming temporarily unemployed (Temporary Layoff) due to Covid-19, followed by analyzing the chances of guarantees of being called back to work (Recall) for the temporarily unemployed. This research is quantitative using micro data from the National Labor Force Survey (Sakernas) August 2020 of using Logistic Regression analysis techniques. The results of research on 13,805 samples inter islands in Indonesia show that the risk of residents becoming temporarily unemployed due to Covid-19 is the highest in the island of Bali and Nusa Tenggara. In fact, the risk of becoming temporarily unemployed due to Covid-19 is 4,348 times highest in urban areas in the islands of Bali and Nusa Tenggara compared to other islands in Indonesia. The greatest risk is 1,647 times higher for young residents (15 to 24 years) on the islands of Bali and Nusa Tenggara compared to other islands in Indonesia. This is because the islands of Bali and Nusa Tenggara are the regions with an economic base in the tourism sector. Lockdown policies and social restrictions have almost paralyzed the economic sector on these two tourism islands. The guaranteed chance of being called back to work on the islands of Bali and Nusa Tenggara is 3.9 times, which is also the highest compared to other regions in Indonesia.

Intervention of the Co-Working Space Program in Shaping the Creative Economy Sector in Bandung City: A Case Study in Gedebage and Batununggal Districts

Muhammad Fachry Lubis

This study aims to examine the interaction between actors, focusing on sources of authority, including political, economic, and normative authority, as well as values and beliefs, which are mobilized in the process of forming, implementing, and sustaining the Co-Working Space program in Bandung City, with case studies in Gedebage and Batununggal Districts. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach, and data were collected through purposive sampling and analyzed using NVivo 14 software. The findings reveal that interactions between actors faced challenges such as limited budgets, inconsistent political support, and sectoral egos among government offices, leading to disruptions in program stability and making it difficult for social actors aiming to develop the program to find their working space. Therefore, recommendations to maintain the stability of the CWS program include increasing participation tactics beyond relying on monetary incentives in other programs, strengthening collaboration between local governments, and enhancing the commitment of districts and CWS administrators to understanding and supporting program sustainability. This study has limitations in informant coverage, and future research is recommended to expand the scope and delve deeper into factors influencing inter-agency collaboration beyond their respective program fields and the long-term impact of entrepreneurship training.

Consumption of 3 kg LPG by upper-middle-class households: an economic approach in Bali

Dewa Putu Yudi Pardita

This study highlights subsidized 3 kg LPG by upper-middle-class households in Bali, intended for low-income communities. This research aims to analyze the factors influencing the consumption behavior of 3 kg LPG among upper-middle-class households, focusing on variables such as income, price, convenience, and policy awareness. The mixed-methods approach combines quantitative analysis using Smart PLS 4 and qualitative methods through in-depth interviews. The total sample used is 100 households. Quantitative research results indicate that convenience and price significantly impact awareness but do not significantly affect the consumption level of 3 kg LPG. Income does not show a significant effect on awareness or consumption. Qualitative analysis reveals that the main reasons for using 3 kg LPG are convenience and established habits. The conclusion of this study indicates that, in addition to economic factors, non-economic factors such as habits and personal preferences also play a crucial role in the decision to use 3 kg LPG. These findings provide new insights into consumer behavior literature and emphasize the need for a more comprehensive approach to designing effective energy policies. This research recommends that future energy policies consider the aspects of convenience and consumer habits to guide more efficient and targeted energy use. Furthermore, it is suggested that further research expands the geographical scope and uses a longitudinal approach to observe changes in energy usage behavior over time. Thus, this study contributes to improving energy policy and a better understanding of consumer behavior in the context of energy subsidies in Indonesia.

THE effect of official development assistance on foreign direct investment and domestic investment in Sub-Saharan Africa

DAZOUE DONGUE GUY PAULIN

L’objectif de cet article est d’évaluer l’effet de l’aide publique au développement sur l’investissement en Afrique subsaharienne de 2006 à 2019, en particulier l’investissement intérieur capturé par la formation brute de capital fixe et les flux d’investissements directs étrangers. La méthode DOLS (panel Dynamic Least Squares) a été utilisée pour tester les deux modèles économétriques à l’aide du logiciel Eviews 10. Les résultats des estimations montrent que la variable de l’aide publique au développement a un effet positif sur la formation brute de capital fixe (FBCF) dans les pays d’Afrique subsaharienne. Une augmentation de 1 % de l’aide publique au développement entraîne une augmentation de 0,76 % de l’investissement intérieur. L’aide publique au développement a également un impact positif sur l’investissement étranger direct (IED). En fait, une augmentation de 1 % de l’APD entraîne une augmentation de 1,10 % de l’IDE. Il semble que l’APD soit plus bénéfique pour l’IED que pour la FBCF dans les pays d’Afrique subsaharienne. Les gouvernements des pays d’Afrique subsaharienne doivent empêcher que l’investissement intérieur ne soit évincé par l’investissement étranger direct en raison de l’aide publique au développement.

Unraveling the Poverty-Growth-Inequality Trilemma in South Papua: Merauke, Asmat, Boven Digoel and Mappi Regency

Wayrohi Meilvidiri

This study investigates the complex relationships among economic growth, income inequality, and poverty across four districts in Southern Papua: Merauke, Asmat, Boven Digoel, and Mappi. Utilizing a combination of descriptive analysis, comparative statistics, and regression analysis, the research analyzes economic and social profiles of each district, focusing on per capita expenditure, GDP growth, and the Gini index over time. Findings reveal that while poverty rates remain relatively stable across these districts, significant disparities exist in growth and inequality patterns. Specifically, Merauke and Asmat experience positive economic growth correlated with rising inequality and stagnating poverty, while Boven Digoel and Mappi demonstrate negative correlations between growth and poverty, indicating more inclusive economic benefits. This study highlights a trilemma where efforts to enhance growth must consider their impacts on inequality and poverty. The results of this study highlight the critical importance of formulating contextualized local policies that prioritize community participation, along with targeted programs aimed at enhancing education and skill development. Such initiatives are essential for mitigating economic disparities and fostering sustainable development. Furthermore, the research provides valuable insights into the intricate dynamics of economic growth, income inequality, and poverty, underscoring the necessity for effective governance in addressing these interconnected challenges.

Problems in the realization of parking tax revenues in Tanjungpinang city

Winata Wira

Two strategies—intensification and extensification—are common ways governments employ to boost tax revenues. Since tax revenues are essential for financing social and economic development (Hillman, 2003), it has led to efforts by the central or local governments to enhance their capability in collecting taxes, as evidenced by the tax to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) or Gross Domestic Regional Product (GDRP) ratio. Accordingly, data for 2017–2022 suggests a comparatively decline in the Tanjungpinang city’s ability to gather parking tax earnings. Given the number of parking taxpayers as a determinant of revenue, our study seeks to explore further the problems that arise by assessing the low tax base, stagnantly low targeting, tax compliance, and evasion issues. In this study, we utilized a qualitative method to analyze legal and policy documents, conduct field research incorporating responses from key informants through in-depth interviews, and assess secondary data. Utilizing the Google Maps application has been beneficial in locating and recognizing businesses that operate parking lots and contributing to the creation of the parking tax base data. Based on the findings of our triangulation analysis, parking revenues from various business sectors and community activities (e.g., banking and finance, trade and retail, tourism and entertainment, health facilities, sports facilities, individual services, accommodation provision, and food and beverage sector) should be capable of increasing by at least nearly threefold the number of parking taxpayers by 2022.

Tools of regional government analysis: an economic policy perspective

Lesmana Rian Andhika

Regional economic growth has a direct impact on increased development and well-being. Local governments frequently utilize aggregate statistical information to strategize and assess economic development. This study investigates scientific analytical methods that local governments might use as a foundation for making policy decisions. This study utilizes systematic reviews and meta-analysis to examine the analytical techniques that local governments can employ to formulate economic growth programs. To ensure the quality of the findings and provide well-reasoned arguments, the search for relevant literature sources follows Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) procedure. The study's findings show that local governments face resource constraints that hinder their comprehensive utilization of analytical tools. The study's findings suggest that local governments do not entirely implement analytical tools due to resource constraints. Two issues that have been recognized are the absence of dependable human resources and the presence of bureaucratic pathology. However, these challenges can be resolved by partnering with higher education institutions or offering structured education and training programs. Ultimately, these analytical tools can visually represent data and provide comprehensive insights as a scientific foundation for policy development. Furthermore, future researchers can investigate alternative analytical instruments to give policymakers various choices.

Driving Behavior Driving Behavior And Tourist Experience Study of Bandung Metropolitan Area

Rina Novianty

A city or an area prioritizing tourism activities should pay close attention to the traffic condition. This study attempts to examine the relationship between driving behavior and tourist experience using the case of Bandung metropolitan area, West Java, Indonesia. We distributed an online questionnaire to 300 respondents from two groups of respondents with an equal proportion. First is tourists who ever visited Bandung and second is Bandung inhabitants driving their cars. Using a descriptive method to elaborate on both variables, followed by Pearson’s Correlation and an independent t-test to clarify its relationship, the result of our research reveals that there is a strong relationship between driving behavior and tourists’ experiences, while the driving behavior is considered as aberrant. The tourists perceived that public transports and orderliness in Bandung are the two most critical things that need to be improved to make the area pleasant for the tourists. Law enforcement is also necessary to ensure that the driving behavior of the inhabitants can be controlled safely.

HERDING BEHAVIOR HERDING BEHAVIOR ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE WHEN DAILY MARKET VOLATILITY IS HIGH

Rina Novianty

The aim of this research is to observe herding behavior on the Indonesian Stock Exchange when daily market volatility is high during 2021-2023. Herding behavior arises when there is high volatility (1). High share price volatility indicates unusual characteristics of supply and demand for shares in the capital market (2). Typically over the last century, stocks moved less than 1 percent up or down in daily trading (3). Herding behavior is observed when daily market volatility is outside unusual conditions, namely when market volatility rises or falls above 1%. Market volatility is represented by the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG). The research objects are grouped into 3 parts, namely large capitalization shares represented by the IDX30 index constituents, small and medium capitalization shares represented by the PEFINDO25 index constituents, and a combination of the two index constituents. The Cross-Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) method is used to find the value of return dispersion from various stock capitalizations (4). Multiple regression analysis is used to see the relationship between variables. The research showed that no herding behavior was found in the 3 research groups. This means that Indonesian Stock Exchange investors during the observation period were rational in making investment decisions.

How government incentives shape consumer intention to adopt electric vehicles: A study in Batam City

Suyono Saputra — 2024-10-31

This study analyzes the factors influencing the intention to purchase electric vehicles (EVs) following the implementation of financial incentives. It integrates the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM), and extensions of TPB, including consumer knowledge, perceived risk, and financial incentives. Data were collected from 384 respondents, comprising both EV users and non-users in Batam City. The findings reveal that attitude has an insignificant effect on the intention to buy EVs, while perceived usefulness also shows an insignificant effect on attitude. In contrast, consumer knowledge and financial incentives significantly influence both attitude and purchase intention. Perceived risk negatively affects attitude and intention to buy EVs. The study highlights the need for policies providing financial incentives to consider long-term benefits for consumers to ensure sustainable adoption of EVs.

Human Capital and Gender Inequality in Sub-Saharan Africa

Sabine Nadine EKAMENA NTSAMA

The objective of this study is to determine the conditional impact of human capital on gender wage inequality in sub-Saharan Africa. We use a sample of 30 countries between 1995 and 2015. Moreover, we consider the quantile model of instrumental variables of Chernozhukov and Hansen (2008); while using the Kaplan (2022) estimator. Next, human capital is measured by the Barro and Lee (2015) indicator, which determines the educational attainment of women aged 15-64. The estimates show that human capital reduces gender inequality in all quantiles in Sub-Saharan Africa (lower quantile 0.25; middle quantile 0.5 and upper quantile 0.75). Moreover, when analyzed by subregion, only the lower (0.25) and middle (0.5) quantiles in Central Africa show an increase in the gender wage gap. Furthermore, using the Peen World Table indicator as a measure of human capital, the results obtained confirm those obtained by Barro and Lee (2015). To check the robustness of our results, we used two-stage least squares estimation, two-stage generalized moments in system, and simultaneous quantile regression. The results are consistent with those obtained using the Kaplan quantile estimator (2022) for instrumental variable smoothing.

The Impact of Structural Change on Income Inequality in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province

Fajriana Fadhlul Fikri

The Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) Province exhibits the highest level of income inequality in Indonesia. The government of DIY has designed an economic development strategy that prioritizes education and tourism, which encourages changes in the economic structure from the agricultural sector to the service sector. The strategy is expected to enhance the community's welfare. However, empirical evidence suggests these efforts have not effectively reduced income inequality in the DIY Province. This study aims to ascertain the condition and impact of structural changes on income inequality in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) between 2013 and 2023. This study employs two analytical techniques: shift-share analysis and panel data regression with a Random Effect Model (REM). The findings indicate that structural change from agriculture to the service sector exerts a positive and statistically significant effect on income inequality. Conversely, structural change from agriculture to industry has no significant impact on income inequality.

The Role of Financial Development and Capital Formation in Promoting Renewable Energy in Bangladesh

Jannat Rahat Jui

Bangladesh, rich in various resources, stands at a pivotal point where the sustainable use of renewable energy can be significantly increased. This study focuses on analyzing the impact of financial development (FD), foreign direct investment (FDI), economic growth, carbon dioxide emissions, and capital formation on renewable energy consumption in Bangladesh. Using time series data from 1991 to 2020 and employing the ARDL bounds testing approach to cointegration, the study provides a comprehensive analysis of these factors. The results reveal a long-term positive relationship between financial development and capital formation with renewable energy consumption, while FDI and economic growth do not significantly influence renewable energy use in the long run. Conversely, carbon dioxide emissions negatively impact renewable energy consumption in both the short and long term. The short-term analysis further indicates a negative relationship between capital formation, FDI, and renewable energy consumption, but financial development shows a positive and significant impact. These findings emphasize the need to enhance our understanding of the role of capital formation and financial development in promoting renewable energy, not just in Bangladesh but also in other developing and developed nations. To curb environmental damage and increase the use of renewable energy, eliminating fossil fuel subsidies and introducing a carbon tax on non-renewable energy use is crucial. Furthermore, Bangladeshi policymakers should advocate for green financing and allocate more funds to clean renewable energy projects, laying the groundwork for a robust renewable energy economy.

Assessing the impact of oil rent on living standards in Nigeria: Evidence from an ARDL Model

Zakaree Saheed — 2024-10-31

Some countries are naturally endowed with abundant natural resources, which serve as a significant source of government revenue for national development. Conversely, other countries lacking such resources rely on alternative means to generate income for their developmental efforts. The disparity in development and living standards among nations, however, cannot be attributed solely to the unequal distribution of natural resources but rather to the effectiveness and efficiency with which resource revenues are utilized. This study examines the effect of oil rents on living standards in Nigeria using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model. The findings reveal a positive long-run relationship between Living Standard (LS), Oil Rent (OR), and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), while a negative relationship is observed with Oil Price (OP) and Exchange Rate (ER). However, these relationships are found to be statistically insignificant. In the short run, the results show a negative and statistically significant relationship between living standards and the variables of Oil Rent, Oil Price, GDP, and Exchange Rate. These findings highlight the complex dynamics between oil rents and living standards, particularly in the context of short-run economic fluctuations. In light of these results, the study recommends that the government prioritize making all refineries operational to meet domestic fuel demand and reduce the costs associated with fuel importation, which consumes a substantial portion of the country's earnings from oil exports. Furthermore, revenues from oil exports should be channeled into productive projects that directly improve the living standards of citizens, such as investments in infrastructure, healthcare, and education. These measures are essential for ensuring that the wealth generated from natural resources translates into sustainable development and improved quality of life for the populace.

The Impact of Underground Economy Activities on the Local Economy in the Border Area of North Central Timor District and Oecusse Enclave - Timor Leste

Frederic Nalle

The border areas of North Central Timor District and the Oecusse Enclave are geographically difficult to monitor and are often the site of underground economic activities. Limited access to formal employment and high costs of official transactions encourage local people to engage in illegal trade. This research aims to understand the impact of underground economic activities on the local economy in the border region. Using a qualitative approach, this research examines economic, social, and security aspects. The results show that underground economic activities have a significant impact on the local economy. From an economic perspective, this activity provides additional income for people who do not have access to formal employment, but it is detrimental to the overall economy. From a social aspect, underground economic activities increase crime rates and erode social and moral values. From a security aspect, this activity adds to the challenges of law enforcement. Large and difficult-to-monitor border areas are fertile ground for various illegal activities. To overcome the negative impacts of underground economic activities, a comprehensive and coordinated policy is needed. Increased border surveillance and patrols with advanced technology, as well as cooperation between Indonesia and Timor Leste in law enforcement, are essential. Economic empowerment programs, educational campaigns, capacity building, and facilities for security forces are also steps that need to be taken.

The impact of digital transformation on financial inclusion: Evidence from MSMEs in Indonesia

Harunurrasyid Harunurrasyid — 2024-10-31

The integration of digitalization in micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) has become a cornerstone in enabling these businesses to thrive within an increasingly competitive and dynamic marketplace. This study, based on data from a survey of 5,553 MSMEs, examines the impact of digitalization on financial inclusion and enterprise productivity. The findings reveal that digitalization reduces MSMEs' dependence on traditional banking systems for credit, facilitating access to alternative financing options through internet-based technologies. Moreover, advancements in technology contribute to increased bank loans and improved MSME productivity by overcoming conventional barriers to financial inclusion and reaching previously underserved segments of the MSME sector. The adoption of formal business status fosters structured and organized operations, thereby enhancing overall performance, while the mere longevity of a business does not guarantee increased productivity. Additionally, improved financial management skills acquired through training are shown to diminish reliance on traditional bank financing. The study also highlights the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including lockdown measures, supply chain disruptions, and changes in consumer behavior, which collectively led to a decline in MSME productivity.

Future plans include implementing changes in some courses by incorporating gender-responsive materials into the semester course plans at the university level.

The Role of Pertamina's CSR in transforming the creativity and innovation of Jambi Batik craftsmen at home

Heriberta Heriberta

Programs for alleviating poverty and improving people's welfare are the responsibility of all components of civil society and the private sector, encouraging productive participation in economic and creativity-based community movements for the benefit of all. Pertamina's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program exemplifies this commitment by aiming to be a socially responsible community partner. Pertamina allocates funds, resources, and expertise to the communities it serves, creating a sustainable environment for batik in line with the triple bottom line principle (people, profit, and planet). As a public company, Pertamina is required to allocate part of its profits to CSR programs. This research aims to identify the problems and obstacles faced by craftsmen and the government in developing Jambi batik, and to understand the role of CSR in transforming the creativity and innovation of home-made Jambi batik into a cultural asset for the people of Jambi. It also examines government policies for developing Jambi batik that adhere to the triple bottom line principle to maintain sustainability. Pertamina's CSR funds, following this principle, aim to enhance community expertise, improve skills, and support batik-related activities within the community, which is crucial for preserving Indonesian culture. The rise of imitation batik, both locally and internationally, significantly impacts batik craftsmen in Jambi Province. Therefore, developing batik centers is essential to ensure that Jambi batik remains recognized and valued. However, these centers face challenges, particularly limited funding, which restricts production capacity. Hence, financial support from local governments and companies is highly beneficial.

Potential scenario of sustainable tourism through women's empowerment: A SMIC-Prob scenario analysis for Penglipuran Village, Bali, Indonesia

I Gusti Ayu Mira Ananda Putri — 2024-08-31

Penglipuran Village is a popular destination for tourists seeking to experience the essence of Bali. Known for its environmentally friendly settlement, Penglipuran is distinguished by its orderly and symmetrical buildings, each with a uniform main gate called Angkul-Angkul. The community places great value on upholding the honor of women in Bali. The objective of this research is to evaluate the potential scenarios that could empower women in the tourism industry and determine the sensitivity of scenarios that drive tourism sustainability in Penglipuran Village. This was achieved using the SMIC-Prob Expert model. The analysis identified three main priority scenarios: (1) working as usual, (2) improving side businesses, and (3) changing the profession. The results indicate that the scenario combination with the highest probability is "110," with an opportunity size of 0.138. This combination, where women continue to work as usual (PrimJob) and focus on the improvement of side businesses (SidePrim), is the best option for women tourism actors to support the sustainability of tourism in Penglipuran Village. Sensitivity analysis, measured by elasticity, identifies SidePrim as the "prime mover" or main driver of tourism sustainability. By implementing improvements in side businesses, women’s involvement in tourism can significantly contribute to achieving future goals alongside stakeholders and the government.

The impact of the blue economy and renewable energy on CO2 emissions in Indonesia: An ARDL approach

Xenaneira Shodrokova — 2024-08-31

Indonesia, the largest archipelagic country in the world with rich marine biodiversity, has significant potential for developing a blue economy encompassing aquaculture, sustainable fisheries, and maritime tourism. However, if not managed sustainably, these activities could increase CO2 emissions. Indonesia is also among the world's highest emitters of greenhouse gases, largely due to deforestation, forest burning for agriculture, and reliance on fossil fuels in the energy sector. Given global commitments to reducing emissions and mitigating climate change, this research explores how the blue economy and the transition to renewable energy can contribute to lowering CO2 emissions. This study examines both short- and long-term impacts using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach. The findings reveal that while increased aquaculture production initially reduces CO2 emissions due to efficiency gains and environmentally friendly technologies, its long-term effects are more complex and may lead to higher emissions. On the other hand, renewable energy consumption significantly reduces CO2 emissions in the short and long term. Conversely, higher energy intensity contributes to increased CO2 emissions, which can be mitigated through improved energy efficiency.

Understanding Qualitative Resear Understanding Qualitative Research: A Review of Lapan et al. (2012) Qualitative Research: An Introduction to Methods and Design

Solomon Terfasa

This article reviews a book entitled, Qualitative Research: An Introduction to Methods and Designs, authored by Lapan, et al. (2012). The reviewers found this book to be an introductory source material for beginner researchers who have limited experience in qualitative research. It can also serve as a supplementary guide for advanced researches who are interested in becoming focused qualitative researchers. We have observed that the book provides explanations of peculiar designs and methodologies other than a mere focus on methods, emphasizing more on philosophical orientations guiding qualitative researchers while depicting uniquely framed newer paradigms. The concepts described in the book are also written in a simple language supported by step-by-step explanations or guides. Thus, we believe that the book contributes to the development of qualitative research as a discipline and beyond an approach. However, while peculiarities of emphasis on methodologies can be considered strengths, excessive indulgence in these paradigmatic orientations to which novice researchers have less exposure may obscure some basics of qualitative research.

The impact of fiscal policy on the underprivileged population in Indonesia

Andrianus Damai — 2024-08-31

This study examines the impact of government spending across various sectors on poverty in Indonesia, motivated by the need to understand how fiscal policies affect the well-being of people experiencing poverty. Using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) and Least Square Dummy Variable (LSDV) models, the findings reveal that government spending on public services, health, education, and social protection significantly affects the number of poor people. However, spending on public services and education shows a positive coefficient, which may result from mandatory spending regulations not directly aimed at improving welfare. In contrast, government spending in the economic sector has an insignificant impact on poverty, indicating that the effects may require more than one period to manifest. Further analysis is necessary to explore this relationship. The consistency of the results was enhanced by incorporating district/city status as a predictor. These findings highlight the need for a more targeted approach to government spending to reduce poverty in Indonesia effectively.

Vania Stephani Bangun

The implementation of Good University Governance (GUG) is anticipated to enhance transparency, accountability, university performance, and elevate the competitiveness of universities to international levels. Despite these expectations, the current implementation of GUG in Indonesia falls short. This research specifically focuses on examining the impact of Competitive Culture (CC), Knowledge Development (KD) on GUG and university performance in public universities in Indonesia, utilizing the Resource-Based View (RBV) theory. The sampling method employed is cluster sampling. The results indicate a positive and significant effect of CC on GUG, KD on GUG, GUG on university performance, CC on university performance, and KD on university performance. In essence, these findings align with the RBV theory, asserting that university capabilities contribute to enhancing overall university performance. Additionally, suggestions have been proposed for future research to expand the study's scope by investigating other variables that may potentially influence Good University Governance (GUG) and university performance.

Sustainability Analysis of the Revolving Fund Programe: A Prospective Approach for MICMAC

Fino Rihab Dibihantoro

The importance of access to credit for micro, small, and handicraft household enterprises, including cooperatives, has been a major focus in improving working capital financing and capital accumulation to support industrial income. The government, with the assistance of the Revolving Fund Management Institution (LPDB), has launched a revolving fund program to strengthen the capital of KSP/USP-Cooperatives, increase the capacity of human resources in business and financial management, and strengthen the role of KSP/USP-Cooperatives in supporting efforts to expand employment opportunities and alleviate poverty. Based on data from the Cooperative Business Development Division of the Denpasar City UMKM Cooperative Office, from 2021 to 2023, five cooperatives received the LPDB revolving fund program, but did not always reapply for the program funds. This raises attention to the sustainability of the program and the factors that influence it. This study aims to identify the factors that influence the sustainability of the LPDB program for cooperatives in Denpasar City. Analysis using the MICMAC method shows that revolving fund administration requirements and member information and knowledge about revolving funds have the most significant direct influence. These findings emphasize the importance of simplifying administration and increasing member knowledge to support program success. Active participation of members also plays an important role in predicting the sustainability of the program, signifying the importance of members' direct involvement in supporting their economic activities
