Abstract

The Indonesian Corruption Perception Index (CPI) is one way to measure corruption practices in Indonesia. By using Geographic Information System (GIS),this paper divulged that high corruption inci-dence is existed in cities that has a play role as an economic growth pole. For instance,Jakarta and Surabaya as the bipolar economic growth centresin Java, and Medan, Pekanbaru and Palembang as the economic growth poles in Sumatera. Those findings drive us to think that economic growth centres theo¬ries are not pertinent with those conditions. Indeks Persepsi Korupsi (IPK) Indonesia adalah salah satu cara untuk mengukur praktek korupsi di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan Sistem Informasi Geografis (SIG), penelitian ini berusaha meng¬ung-kap tingginya korupsi yang ada di kota-kota yang berperan sebagai tiang pertumbuhan ekonomi. Misalnya, Jakarta dan Surabaya sebagai pusat bipolar pertumbuhan ekonomi di Jawa; kemudian Medan, Pekanbaru dan Palembang sebagai pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi di Sumatera. Temuan-temuan tersebut mendorong kita untuk berpikir bahwa teori pusat-pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi tidak relevan dengan kondisi tersebut

Abstract

Rural plays role as a supporting area for urban. Rural’s main activity is agriculture and natural resources explotation. In recent years, agricultural sector in rural area has been kicked out by other sectors.The implication is there is a shift in employment. This condition will influence income distribution in rural areas and then affects education sector. The research’s method is descriptive quantitative using secondary data provided by Indonesian Statistic Bureau (BPS). The change in rural’s economy pattern is proxied by population aged 15 years or over who work by main industry. Education’s quality is proxied by enrollment rate. The result of this research are: (1). There is  positive relationship between the decreasing number of employment rate in agricultural sector and better income distribution in rural areas. (2). Better income distribution drives to higher enrollment rate. The recommendation is education sould be developed better in order to prevent employee to work in sectors other than agriculture.Keywords: rural, agriculture, education, enrollment rate

Abstract

Rural accessibility has been an important issue for development. As wider accessibility allow people to increase their living standard, there is an urgency to compose a single indicator to measure accessibility. The World Bank has been produced Rural Access Index (RAI). That index measure the percentage of rural population living within two kilometers from all-season road. Even though this index is useful to compare among countries, there are obstacles experienced especially in developing countries like Indonesia. The first barrier is data availability. Then, the second barrier is the unequal population distribution in Indonesia. However, the index is still needed to solve many problems in Indonesia, e.g. health and lack of infrastructure.Keywords: Rural Access Index (RAI), accessibility, rural areaJEL Classification: O18, R11, R12

The majority of targeted households able to improve their business; 3) From 477 targeted households listed in almost poor household, so far, that able to get loan was 49 households (10.27%), thus the effectiveness of Jalin Matra PK2 Program seen from financing aspect not run yet effectively.Keywords: Poverty, Effectiveness, Jalin Matra PK2JEL Classification: I31, I38

Abstract

Households should small and but financially strong, especially to deal with a crisis where most families face a reduction in income but relatively constant expenditure. To maintain the standard of living, they need a buffer, measured from net wealth, i.e. total value of assets deducted by debts. There is no justification for how small the family size should be. For most households, higher net wealth is achieved when they have smaller household size, while only the poorest and richest households can get benefits from additional household members. However, we should also aware of the pseudo-increase of net wealth, i.e. households obtain an increasing net wealth because of additional household members but unable to push them to higher decile.

Abstract

Poverty measurement from a non-monetary aspect is needed as low-income individuals are not always multidimensionally poor, and vice versa. The focus should also be on the gender determinant potentially related to the inequality in wage, labour market, and the return of education, which can influence the household’s ability to achieve a higher standard of living and alleviate poverty. This paper discovers the contribution of gender determinants to multidimensional poverty conditions in Indonesia. This paper used logit estimation using National Socioeconomics Survey (Susenas) 2018. The data show that approximately 10% of the Indonesian population is considered vulnerably poor, and severely poor is 3%. The vulnerably and severely poor individuals are mostly measured from years of schooling, health insurance ownership, and assets ownership. Moreover, we find that variables of household size, dependency ratio, and household head age are the better explanators of poverty’s vulnerability. However, those variables cannot explain severe poverty among female- and male-headed households, even though female-headed households are more prone to falling into poverty situations. Then, the decomposition results show that our selected variables explain the probability of being vulnerable poor. However, the probability of being severely poor is largely determined by unobservable behaviour domination not included in the study.

Abstract

Investigating household wealth should also include spatial analysis to capture the influence of location on the households’ net wealth and to avoid underestimation of the effect of the change of variables due to estimation that ignores spatial aspects. This paper examines factors influencing household net wealth in Indonesia with the influence of spatial lag using data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) for 1993–2014. The article relies on the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) to analyze the data. Results show that household net wealth in Indonesia is spatially related to each other, and the spillover effect makes the change of household net wealth in Indonesia dominated by the change of variables in neighbouring regions. Furthermore, considering the time component, there is a positive effect of households’ size on households’ net wealth due to the time component concerning the spatial lag of the dependent and independent variables.

Abstract

Digitalization is prominent for companies and businesses, especially in the era of modern information technology. Digitalization can increase efficiency in business processes, including manufacturing, supply chains, inventory management, and administrative processes. Hence, this study aims at investigating the role of organizational agility in mediating the relationship between digitalization capability and business performance. A purposive sampling was used to gather the data from managers in PT. Mayora Indah Tbk. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The findings indicate that digitalization capability has a significant effect on organizational performance and organizational agility. In addition, this study showed that digitalization capability has an effect on organizational agility. This study also confirms the role of organizational agility in mediating the link between digitalization capability and organizational performance. This study provides implications for the need for organizational agility in supporting digitalization capability and organizational performance. Keywords: organizational performance, organizational agility, digitalization capability
