Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of the fuel price increase, triggered by the surge in global oil prices and subsidy reduction policies, on the production, distribution, and transportation costs of MSMEs. The methodology employed is a qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews and field observations. The results indicate that the rise in fuel prices led to increased operational costs, decreased purchasing power of the community, and reduced sales and profitability of MSMEs. MSME operators responded with various adaptation strategies, such as reducing the portion or quality of materials, holding prices steady, and seeking alternative suppliers. Although fuel prices have stabilized, the residual effects of the previous price increases are still felt, with cost structures remaining high. This research emphasizes the importance of the government's role in providing support and protection for MSMEs, as well as the need for national energy policies that consider local realities to create better social and economic justice.

Abstract

This study explores the perceptions of residents in Keranggan Village regarding the Village Fund Direct Cash Assistance (BLT-DD) program and its impact on household economic conditions. The research is driven by the need to evaluate the effectiveness of social assistance policies amid persistent economic vulnerabilities, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. The main objective is to understand how beneficiaries perceive the BLT-DD program and to assess its role in supporting their economic well-being. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews and field observations with four beneficiaries and one village official. The findings reveal that the BLT-DD program is widely perceived as beneficial, especially in meeting daily basic needs among low-income families and elderly individuals. Some recipients also used the funds as capital for small-scale businesses. Although the assistance is seen as well-targeted and transparently administered, concerns remain about its sustainability in promoting long-term economic welfare. Beneficiaries expressed the need for complementary economic empowerment programs to reduce dependency on aid. Overall, the study suggests that while BLT-DD serves as a valuable short-term social protection mechanism, its long-term impact could be significantly enhanced through integrated and sustainable policy support.
