Abstract

This study examines the impact of domestic investment and human capital on three key regional economic development challenges—income inequality, poverty, and unemployment—across ten provinces in Sumatra during the period 2010–2023. Using a panel data regression model and moderation regression analysis (MRA), the research also investigates the moderating role of fiscal and monetary policy mixes. The results indicate that domestic investment is significantly and negatively associated with income inequality and unemployment; however, its effect on poverty is statistically insignificant. Human capital, proxied by the Human Development Index (HDI), shows a significant negative effect on both income inequality and poverty, but a significant positive effect on unemployment. Monetary policy, proxied by the BI rate, has a significant positive impact on income inequality and unemployment, with no significant influence on poverty. Additionally, monetary policy is found to weaken the effect of domestic investment in reducing both income inequality and unemployment. Fiscal policy, represented by government spending, has a significant negative effect on poverty and a significant positive effect on unemployment, while showing no significant impact on income inequality. Moreover, fiscal policy strengthens the effect of HDI in reducing inequality and poverty, while simultaneously weakening its effect in increasing unemployment.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to ascertain the influence of brand image-mediated product quality, product benefits, and awareness on travelers' decisions to use halal cosmetics while in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. This research is a quantitative study using primary data obtained from distributing questionnaires. A total of 305 respondents who have visited Lombok, NTB, made up the study's sample. The technique for data analysis is Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares or SEM-PLS. It is known that product quality has no bearing on whether or not someone chooses to use halal cosmetics based on data analysis findings. The decision of Lombok NTB tourists to use halal cosmetics is, however, influenced positively by the benefits of the product, awareness, and brand image. Meanwhile, brand image is unable to mediate the relationship between product quality, benefits, and awareness of the choice to use halal cosmetics among Lombok NTB tourism.
