Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the tangible impact of digital technology on improving the livelihoods and income of fishermen in Batam, in alignment with the principles of a sustainable blue economy. Research Methodology: The research employed a quantitative and qualitative approach through direct field surveys conducted with 52 local fishermen in Batam. The data collected focused on digital tool usage, income changes, and perceived benefits and challenges. Results: Findings reveal that digital technologies—such as meteorological forecasting applications and online marketing platforms—serve as crucial drivers for economic transformation. Approximately 80% of the observed income increases are attributable to digital literacy and technology use. Notably, over 50% of respondents reported a direct rise in income after adopting digital marketing strategies. Conclusion: Digitalization significantly boosts fishermen’s income and economic resilience. However, this transition is impeded by limited technological adaptation among older generations and inadequate internet infrastructure in coastal regions. Limitations: The study is limited by its sample size and geographic scope, focusing solely on fishermen in Batam, which may limit the generalizability of the results to other archipelagic regions. Contribution: This research offers critical insights for policymakers by highlighting the importance of accessible technology training and robust internet infrastructure. These are key to ensuring equitable digital transformation and enhancing the global competitiveness of local fishing communities in Batam.

Abstract

 Major infrastructure development in developing countries often focuses on improving national connectivity and economic growth, but often ignores the social impact on local communities. Projects such as expressways or railway lines can break vital links between regions and increase accessibility inequalities, hinder mobility and exacerbate socio-economic inequalities. In addition, land acquisition for large projects often harms farmers and micro entrepreneurs who lose their livelihoods without adequate employment solutions. These projects also ignore local needs, such as access to essential public facilities. This inequality is exacerbated by a lack of inclusive planning, where local communities are not involved in the decision-making process. As a result, although large infrastructure development can improve the macroeconomy, its positive impact is not felt by society at the micro level. This study uses a qualitative approach with case studies to explore the impact of infrastructure development on local community access. Through interviews, field observations, and document analysis, this study aims to provide an in-depth picture of social inequalities that arise due to the dominance of large projects without considering the interests of local communities. More inclusive planning and community participation are needed to ensure sustainable and equitable development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between financial literacy, financial self-efficacy, and risky online credit behaviour among college students in Batam City. The issue of online consumer credit for students has garnered considerable academic attention; however, the mechanisms linking financial literacy to risky credit behaviour are not yet fully understood. A sample of 190 students in Batam City was randomly selected as study respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using SEM-PLS analysis. The findings reveal that students' financial literacy has a positive and significant impact on risky credit behaviour, with subjective financial literacy exerting a stronger influence than objective financial literacy. Additionally, financial literacy positively affects financial self-efficacy. The study also shows that financial self-efficacy partially mediates the relationship between financial literacy and risky credit behaviour. These findings hold implications for policy recommendations aimed at improving financial literacy and enhancing students' understanding of sound financial management practices.
