Abstract

This study utilized knowledge of the utilization level of foreign loans based on economic growth areas. The metrology of foreign loan effectiveness was explained through the utilization by both the government and private sectors in foreign involvement. The primary zone was elucidated based on economic areas, while the growth percentage served as secondary and tertiary metrology of economic growth. Data was gathered through data sorting and downloading from the Central Bank's (Bank Indonesia) and Central Statistics Agency's websites. The research instrument employed was PLS SEM, with data management conducted using Smart PLS 3.0. The impact of the sectors showed a positive and significant effect on economic growth. On the other hand, the utilization of foreign loans demonstrated a significant but inverse impact on economic growth, as revealed by the output of the structural model estimation. Recommendations from the findings include expanding the production frontlines, which would be associated with an increase in the demand for services in the labor market. Additionally, the technical capabilities, particularly those aligned with the era of Society 5.0, need to be expanded and improved by job seekers. Furthermore, another suggestion involves converting short-term loan conventions into long-term periods, which would yield benefits in terms of utilization period. Finally, a recommendation is to reduce the usage of foreign loans by leveraging import mechanisms, aiming to meet the structural requirements domestically and contribute to the equitable growth of local production capacity.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of fiscal policy in reducing poverty in Eastern Indonesia, both directly and indirectly through health and education spending and economic growth. In this context, fiscal policy is measured through local own-source revenue, transfer funds, and regional borrowing, used for funding the health and education spending. Meanwhile, the dependent variable will be proxied by the percentage of poor people (P0). Pandemic will also included in the analysis as control variable. Regression with the Three-Stage Least Square (3SLS) method will be employed in this study, incorporating twelve provinces from 2010 to 2023, with a fixed effect model estimation. After conducting robustness checks, this paper reveals that regional incomes, measured by local own-source revenue, transfer funds, and government borrowing have significantly affected poverty, either directly or indirectly through education and health spending and economic growth channel. It means that those variables can play a significant role in mitigating poverty in Eastern Indonesia. Therefore, policies aimed at enhancing regional income, optimizing fund transfer, and prioritizing the allocation of expenditures and borrowing on developments that broadly benefit the Poor, are crucial for accelerating poverty reduction in Eastern Indonesia.
