Abstract

Indonesia, as the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, has numerous Muslim organizations that play a significant role in the social and economic lives of its people. This study aims to address the impact of participation in Moslem organizations on social capital in a setting of a country with the biggest Moslem population in the world. A survey of members and non-members of Moslem organization Muhammadiyah in Bandar Lampung City was conducted. The quantitative approach is used to display the data on the degree to which Muhammadiyah Moslem organizations' involvement has impacted the social capital index. The data analysis technique used is propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. The findings demonstrated that members of Muhammadiyah and non-Muhammadiyah had different social capital indices. Additionally, a person's involvement in Muslim groups significantly affects social capital. It suggests that Moslem organizations are not only present to provide religious understanding for their members but also capable of providing added value for them, that is, the addition of social capital for each member. Based on the study, participation in Moslem organizations like Muhammadiyah significantly enhances social capital among members, suggesting that these organizations provide not only religious guidance but also valuable social benefits.

Abstract

Cash and in-kind transfers are two of the instruments utilized in an endeavor to further expand the economy and solve household welfare concerns. Aside from the government social security program, religious organizations provide a few informal cash and in-kind transfers to largely disadvantaged households. The primary goal of this research is to investigate the effect of cash and in-kind transfers from religious organizations on the consumption expenditures of Muslim households. The Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2014 data is used. Using the Ordinary Least Squares method, this study discovers that Muslim households spend the cash and in-kind transfers from religious organizations on two types of household expenditure, namely personal expenditure and utility expenditure, due to the minimal disbursement. The subsidies distributed by the religious organization had a favorable impact on the consumption of Muslim households. An implication of the results is that Muslim households receiving cash and in-kind transfers from religious organizations became opportunities to smooth consumption expenditure. However, these two expenses made just a minor contribution to the overall household cost, so it is necessary to consider other potential impacts, such as savings, investment, or overall household welfare, on the fulfillment of needs that affect expenditure in Muslim households.

Abstract

Unwillingness to seek healthcare has been observed in citizens from many countries during the Covid-19 pandemic. Previous studies show that the changes in behavior are due to various reasons such as economic slowdown, loss of health insurance due to termination of employment, and fear of contracting the virus. This behavior may result in worsened health conditions, making a individual more susceptible to the virus. The supply side of health care is one of the things that should be considered in the discussion about access to health care in developing countries. This paper investigates access to the healthcare problem of Indonesians, discusses both the supply side and demand side by looking at the change of behavior due to the patients’ fear of getting treatment during pandemic covid-19. We will serve this purpose through a small-scale survey and offer some insights from a statistical analysis perspective as well. Based on a survey from 588 respondents from the west Indonesia region, this study observes that the respondents’ health condition shows no significant change before and during the Covid-19 pandemic era. On the other hand, the respondents’ frequency of accessing outpatient healthcare proves to be significantly decreasing during the Covid-19 pandemic era, with 23,4% of the respondents stating that they avoid utilizing outpatient healthcare as an effort to avoid the Coronavirus. The frequency of using Kartu Indonesia Sehat to access outpatient healthcare also shows a significant decrease during this pandemic era.
