Abstract

This study aims to analyze the determinants of poverty in five districts with high poverty levels in West Java Province. Indramayu Regency, Kuningan Regency, Tasikmalaya City, Majalengka Regency, and Cirebon Regency over the period 2009–2023. The explanatory variables include economic growth, Human Development Index (HDI), open unemployment rate, and income inequality. This study employs secondary data obtained from Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and applies panel data regression analysis. Model selection is conducted using the Chow test and Hausman test, indicating that the Fixed Effect Model is the most appropriate estimation approach. The empirical results reveal that all independent variables jointly have a significant effect on poverty levels. Partially, HDI, open unemployment rate, and income inequality are found to have a statistically significant effect on poverty, while economic growth does not show a significant impact. These findings suggest that poverty in regions with high poverty levels is multidimensional and cannot be explained solely by economic growth performance. Therefore, poverty reduction policies should emphasize improvements in human development, labor market conditions, and income distribution to achieve more inclusive and sustainable poverty alleviation.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of multidimensional globalization on economic growth in ASEAN countries over the period 2019–2024. Using the KOF Globalisation Index, globalization is decomposed into economic, social, and political dimensions to capture its heterogeneous effects. Panel data estimation is conducted using the Fixed Effect Model (FEM), with System Generalized Method of Moments (System GMM) employed as a robustness check to address potential endogeneity. The results reveal that economic globalization and foreign direct investment have a positive and significant effect on economic growth, indicating the important role of trade integration and capital inflows in enhancing economic performance. In contrast, political globalization shows a negative and significant effect, supporting the existence of a globalization paradox, where deeper political integration may reduce domestic policy flexibility and hinder growth. Social globalization and labour force are not statistically significant. The System GMM results confirm the robustness and consistency of the main findings. These results highlight that globalization has asymmetric effects, implying that ASEAN countries need to adopt a selective and strategic globalization approach to promote sustainable economic growth.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Teman PBB application in Bandung City as a digital innovation designed to improve local tax compliance. The background of this research stems from the low level of tax compliance at the local level and the need to modernize tax administration through digital services. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach supported by simple quantitative data collected through a survey of 100 taxpayers, complemented by participatory observation at the UPTD PPD Central Bandung Region. The results show that low digital literacy and limited public awareness are the main barriers to application adoption, as reflected by only 11% of respondents being aware of the existence of Teman PBB. In addition, technical issues such as server limitations, non-user-friendly interfaces, and system instability reduce the perceived usefulness and ease of use, as explained in the Technology Acceptance Model. From a policy perspective, the application has not yet been able to fully build public trust, as described in the Slippery Slope Framework. This study concludes that the success of Teman PBB is strongly determined by improvements in digital literacy, enhancement of technical quality, and cross-sector collaboration, including integration with digital payment platforms to strengthen voluntary compliance and the effectiveness of local fiscal revenue.

Abstract

Purpose – This community service activity aims to address the procedural information gap regarding the Kartu Indonesia Pintar (KIP) Kuliah program and enhance fund management skills for Grade XII high school/vocational students and Guidance Counselors (BK Teachers) in the Bandung Raya region. The intervention is designed to ensure students have both access to higher education opportunities and essential fund management competencies Design/methodology/approach – The program was implemented using an experiential learning-based workshop model integrating offline and online sessions (blended approach), which involved practical simulation of the KIP Kuliah system application. Effectiveness was measured quantitatively through pre-tests and post-tests across two dimensions: KIP Kuliah Access and Financial Management Findings – Evaluation results showed a significant increase in understanding. KIP Kuliah Access Understanding increased by 43.1% (mean score from 2.51 to 4.02), and Financial Management Understanding increased by 38.8% (mean score from 2.38 to 3.86). This increase validates the program's success in bridging the information gap and providing applied solutions for the partners Originality/value – The program offers an original contribution by providing an integrated intervention that combines procedural problem solutions (KIP Kuliah Access) and managerial solutions (Financial Literacy) within a single experiential framework. Furthermore, the activity successfully strengthened the capacity building of Guidance Counselors, positioning them as sustainable change agents at the school level to better support students' study continuity

Abstract

This study examines the influence of digital marketing strategies, social media usage, and customer interaction on brand equity, with brand image as a mediating variable among MSMEs in Bandung City. A quantitative approach using Partial Least Squares (PLS) was employed, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to MSME owners and managers utilizing digital platforms. The findings indicate that digital marketing strategies, social media usage, and customer interaction have a significant effect on both brand image and brand equity. Furthermore, brand image is proven to mediate these relationships, thereby strengthening the sustainable competitive advantage of MSMEs. The novelty of this study lies in the simultaneous integration of the three key variables within a single empirical model, positioning brand image as a central mediating construct in the context of digitally oriented MSMEs at the local level, which remains underexplored in prior studies.

Abstract

Income inequality is a crucial issue in sustainable economic development. This study aims to analyze the relationship between poverty rates, literacy rates, and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) and income inequality in North Sumatra Province during the 2012–2024 period. The data used are secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of North Sumatra Province and the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Indonesia. The analytical method used is multiple linear regression with the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) approach. The results of the study show that partially, only the literacy rate has a negative and significant effect on income inequality (t = -2.778; sig = 0.021) because t count = -2.778 > from t table (1.833) and significant sig = 0.021 < 0.05, while poverty has a positive and insignificant effect (t = 1.463; sig = 0.177) and GRDP has a negative but insignificant effect (t = -0.455; sig = 0.660). Simultaneously, the variables of poverty, GRDP, and literacy rate have a significant effect on income inequality (F count = 7.855; sig = 0.007). The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.724 indicates that 72.4% of the variation in income inequality is explained by these three variables. The results of this study indicate that income inequality in North Sumatra Province can be reduced by improving the quality of education (through increasing literacy rates). Future economic development policies should emphasize equitable access to education across the province.

Abstract

Research Originality: This study contributes by linking Indonesia-Australia bilateral trade, economic complexity, and wholesale price dynamics within a single error-correction framework following the partnership's entry into force. Research Objectives: The study investigates the impact of exports, imports, economic complexity, merchandise trade openness, and wholesale prices on Indonesia's growth in both the short and long term from 2010 to 2025. Research Methods: Annual data are analyzed using Augmented Dickey-Fuller tests, Engle-Granger cointegration tests, and an error correction model, supported by residual diagnostics, for five bilateral trade variables. Empirical Results: The results indicate that all variables are associated with long-term development, while wholesale prices, imports, and exports primarily drive short-term fluctuations. Economic complexity is more significant as a structural channel than as an annual upheaval. Implications: These results suggest that Indonesia should focus on trade liberalization under the IA-CEPA, as it could serve as a real growth engine. Policy should move beyond trade volume targets by enhancing export diversification, stabilizing wholesale price transmission, and leveraging the partnership to strengthen skills, technology transfer, and higher-value-added production.
