Abstract

The study purpose was to analyze the influence of central government spending, road infrastructure development, and the Human Development Index (HDI) on economic growth in Indonesia over the period 1995–2024. Materials and methods. This study employs annual secondary data sourced from the official publications of Statistics Indonesia (BPS) and the Ministry of Finance. The analytical method applied is multiple linear regression to determine the extent of the influence exerted by each independent variable on the dependent variable, namely economic growth. Results. The study found an R-squared (R2) of 0.988291, showing that 98.83% of GDP variation is explained by the model. The F-statistic (0.000) confirms a significant simultaneous effect. Partially, central government spending (X1) has a highly significant positive impact (p=0.000), while road infrastructure (X2) and HDI (X3) do not show significant effects (p > 0.05). Conclusions. The study concludes that central government spending is the primary driver of Indonesia's GDP, whereas road infrastructure and HDI require better optimization to yield immediate economic impacts. These findings suggest a potential "lag effect" in infrastructure and social investments. Consequently, the government should prioritize spending efficiency and the long-term quality of human capital to ensure a more balanced and sustainable contribution to national economic growth

Abstract

Income inequality is one of the structural challenges faced by many countries, including Indonesia. This phenomenon reflects an unequal distribution of income across regions, which can lead to social injustice and hinder the process of economic development. This study aims to analyze the effects of the Human Development Index (HDI), economic growth, and unemployment rates on income inequality across 34 provinces in Indonesia over the period 2019–2024. The method employed is panel data regression analysis. The findings reveal that the unemployment rate has a positive and significant effect on income inequality. The HDI shows a significant negative effect, while economic growth does not exhibit a statistically significant impact. These findings highlight the importance of policies that prioritize job creation and human development in addressing inequality. Economic growth strategies should also be designed to be more inclusive.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of sustainable development on Sumatra Island and its spatial distribution, assessed from economic, social, and environmental dimensions. Data analysis was conducted using a composite index method, which comprises various unitless indicators or sub-indicators. Furthermore, Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques were applied to identify the spatial distribution of sustainable development. For the economic dimension, indicators include Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita and the open unemployment rate. The social dimension was analyzed using the Human Development Index (HDI), school participation rates, life expectancy at birth, and poverty rates. Meanwhile, the environmental dimension utilized indicators such as the environmental quality index, air quality index, water quality index, and land cover quality index. Based on the composite index analysis of sustainable development in Sumatra from 2016 to 2020, the results indicate that regional development, in the short term, can be classified as moderately sustainable. Spatially, the sustainable development index values ranged from 50.01 to 75.00, which falls into the moderately sustainable category.
