Abstract

This study aims to estimate the impact of policy responses due to the Covid-19 pandemic on intra-generational household economic mobility in Indonesia. Given the many policy interventions during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, this study focuses on the implementation of partial lockdowns known as PSBB policy in four districts (Bogor Regency, Bekasi Regency, Bogor City, and Bekasi City). In order to have a causal relationship, this study performs Synthetic Control Method to construct hypothetical counterfactual regions for districts that implement PSBB policy. Based on multinomial logit estimations, this study found that the implementation of PSBB adversely affects household economic mobility in rural districts but does not significantly affect household economic mobility in urban districts in the short run.

Abstract

The absence of sufficient income leaves the impoverished and near-poor particularly susceptible to economic shocks, yet they encounter significant barriers in accessing the health insurance market. The government introduced the Health Premium Assistance for the Poor and Near-Poor (Askeskin) program on January 1, 2005, to address this issue. However, individuals with lower socioeconomic status are disproportionately likely to smoke. Therefore, it is imperative to conduct screening and assess smoking intensity, particularly among those facing economic hardships, to effectively address smoking behavior. To assess the severity of smoking habits among beneficiaries of subsidized health insurance (Askeskin), this study utilized data from the IFLS survey and applied Item Response Theory (IRT). IRT facilitates the development of highly precise measurement tools that accurately capture variations in an individual's health and well-being. The findings indicate that this scale serves as a suitable instrument for examining heavy smoking intensity in research endeavors, particularly within the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Combining regional growth model and integration of financial institution model, this paper evaluates whether intermediary development influences growth in Indonesia. Recent research has proved that not only banks development influence economic growth positively but also its exogenous components. However, there are several different assumptions during adopt this model in Indonesia. Especially regional approach is differing than national approach in growth model. The point is the existence of intermediary integration across region that causes the economic agent move freely within a nation. The data show that integration of financial intermediation was not always associated with economic growth. Only four of twenty-six provinces which proved strong influence of financial intermediation on economic growth. Labor condition and average annual wages are not exogenous variables which explain growth due to financial intermediation in Indonesia. at least during 1987-1998.

Abstract

The existence of ex ante moral hazard (EAMH) can cause inefficiency and threaten the sustainability of the health insurance program developed by the Indonesian government. The deficit in health social funds and the increase in the number of smokers in Indonesia may indicate the presence of EAMH. Several studies have explored EAMH, but their conclusions remain inconclusive. This study will utilize panel data from IFLS waves 2, 3, 4, and 5. By combining matching and Difference-in-Differences (PSM-DiD) methods to eliminate various potential biases, this research aims to reveal the impact of participating in subsidized health insurance on changes in smoking intensity among beneficiaries of Askeskin/JKN PBI. The findings suggest that, overall, the Askeskin policy does not indicate the presence of EAMH in relation to smoking behavior. However, within a specific subset of the data, there are indications of EAMH linked to rising smoking expenses among poor urban individuals.

Abstract

Participating in nonfarm employment as a diversification strategy increases the probability of farm households becoming less vulnerable to income shocks and improves rural household welfare. This study aims to fill the research gap about the impact of nonfarm participation on rural household educational investment using nationally representative data for Indonesia. Using topographical characteristics in each district as the instrumental variable (IV). This study reveals that participating in nonfarm employment significantly contributes to enhancing household educational expenditure in rural farming households. The OLS specification without controls yields a negative and insignificant coefficient for nonfarm participation. With household and district controls, the estimate becomes positive but remains small at 0.11 percentage points. The IV estimate is larger at 3.39 percentage points, indicating possible downward bias in the OLS results, likely related to unobserved factors that jointly affect nonfarm participation and educational spending with negative bias. There is substantial heterogeneity in the impacts of nonfarm participation across subsamples. The role of nonfarming is relatively higher in male-headed households and in households that run their own farm business assisted by temporary or unpaid workers. Nonfarm employment plays an essential role and is more prominent in eastern Indonesia. Income diversification to nonfarm sectors can potentially increase educational investment, particularly in relatively lagging regions, thereby reducing inequality in rural education.
