Abstract

Abstract:This study examines the factors that determine airlines’ customer satisfaction rating, according to SKYTRAX in which SKYTRAX is a world airline audit that leads product and service quality improvement program for the airline industry with 26 years of experience. SKYTRAX audit the performance of the airlines through customer reviews and rate them with 1-5 and 1-10 interval Likert scale. This study uses only 3 variables from SKYTRAX which are food and beverages, seat comfort, staff service, and number of reviews that act as a control variable. This study uses ordered probit regression model because the data are cross section and the dependent variable is discrete variable (1-10 Likert scale). The number of airlines observed is 128. The result reveals that Food and Beverages, Seat Comfort and Staff service have positive significant effect on increasing the probability of an airline getting a higher rating, which means more satisfied customer.Keywords: Airline studies, airlines rating, SKYTRAX, airline industry, customer satisfaction, ordered probit model

Abstract

Jakarta is rapidly becoming as one of the world’s megacities and this has been boosted by its impressive economic growth over past decades. The city has transformed over the past thirty years into one of the modern financial and services hubs in Southeast Asia. With a population of more than ten million, it is now a thriving centre of entrepreneurship. However, the city is striving to find a balance between growth and sustainable development. Like all other megacities, Jakarta faces serious development challenges, such as a population explosion, traffic congestion, environmental pollution, resource shortages, urban poverty and cultural conflicts. This study focuses on the complex challenge of alleviating worsening traffic congestion in Jakarta. It looks at how various fragmented policies and strategies have failed to solve this problem because of poor planning, lack of community participation, poor urban transport management and unbalanced regional development. In particular, it addresses the key failure to develop a sustainable urban transport system that considers the social, economic, environmental and cultural elements of the city. The essential message of the study is that to control traffic congestion successfully, reforms in the urban transport system should be complemented with more community engagement in planning, governance and monitoring. Social sciences can contribute to the understanding of the problems and reinforce the necessity for wide-ranging social and behavioural reforms in urban society

Abstract

This paper has two objectives. The frst is to estimate technical effciency scores for local government expenditure in regencies and cities in West Java. The second is to analyze the other environmental factors that play animportant role in the technical effciency scores of local government expenditure in the same regencies and cities.This research uses a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method to estimate technical effciency scores and usesa Tobit method for analyzing environmental factors. The DEA method uses capital expenditure per capita,employment of government expenditure per capita, and goods and services expenditure per capita as input anduses Gross Regional Product (GRP) per capita, human capital index (HDI) and road infrastructure length perwide area as output. The Tobit method uses the total of investment credit funds, total labor and total governmentemployment per 1000 civil servants. The results showed that there are many region that have high spendingbut can not achieved the maximum score of effciency. The Tobit estimation shows that the total of investmentcredit funding and total labor have positive and signifcant marginal effects in creating optimal technical effciencyscores. Total government employment per 1000 civil servants has a negative and insignifcant marginal effect onoptimal technical effciency scores.

Abstract

This study offered a method for predicting crises in Indonesia using an artificial neural network (ANN) model. The empirical findings indicated that an ANN model would have performed well in predicting crises from 1971:1 to 1995:12 (in-sample) and from 1996:1 to 1998:12 (out-of-sample), namely the Asian Financial Crisis, which hit Indonesia in 1997--1998. The empirical results indicated that financial crises can be predicted and the application of the ANN model in predicting Indonesian financial crises is promising. Thus, the government can develop an ANN model to predict recurrent financial crises and use it to provide an early warning system.

Abstract

This article is to examine the impact of Chinese firms’ FDI to Indonesia on the development of intra-industry trade between two countries, measured by Grubel-Lloyd index. Using Pooled Least Square (PLS) regression method, this article shows that the increase of Chinese firms’ investment in Indonesia’s industry, particularly in manufacturing industry, demonstrated strongly positive effect in the intensification of intra-industry trade. Additionally, this article also finds that the other components such as factor endowments as well as trade openness between two countries and the existence of trade integration are also important determinants of the development of intra-industry trade between two countries.

Abstract

This paper reports a study of the testing of Okun’s Law in the Indonesian economy: we test difference and gap models of Okun’s thesis. For this we use annual data on GDP and unemployment rates for Indonesia from 1980 to 2013. The main conclusions are, first, that Indonesia still faces a continuing high unemployment rate according to the results of the output gap model and of the first difference model. Second, in the long term, demand in Indonesia’s employment market is inelastic, especially during financial crises. Indonesia needs high economic growth to cause demand for labour to be more elastic to absorb many more into the labour force. Overall, our analyses found that interpretations of Okun’s Law might not be applicable to Indonesia’s economy.

Abstract

Although official figures show that poverty in Indonesia has declined, it remains one of the keydevelopment issues. The current static poverty approach in assessing poverty changes has not been sufficientto design effective and strategic policies for poverty reduction. This study analyses the dynamicsof poverty in Indonesia using the 2008–2010 panel data of the Survei Sosial Ekonomi Nasional(Susenas), the National Socio-Economic Survey. This study uses a sequential transition matrix to depictthe dynamics of poverty that are shown by the magnitude of changes in poverty status (especially transientand chronic poverty). The matrix indicates that the incidence of transient and chronic povertyfor the period 2008–2010 was 23.2 per cent, much higher than the figure of 13.3 per cent derivedby using the static poverty approach in 2010. This suggests that the magnitude of the poverty problemin Indonesia is indeed much higher than the common perception that is based on the usual povertyindicators. The results of a multinomial logistic model reconfirm the importance of investment ineducation, improvement in the agricultural and non-agricultural sectors, and reduction of dependencyratios to help cope with transient and chronic poverty. To help develop poverty alleviation policy andto design intervention programs, using the statistics of chronic poverty and the Human DevelopmentIndex, there are eight provinces that could be considered as the core focus area. These provinces areNangroe Aceh Darussalam, Lampung, East Java, East Nusa Tenggara, Central Sulawesi, South EastSulawesi, Maluku, and West Papua, and all need immediate intervention and accelerated povertyreduction programs.Keywords: Geographical targeting, Multinomial logistic, Poverty dynamics, Transient and chronicpoverty, Sequential transition

Abstract

This paper discusses the role of the ASEAN–India Free Trade Area (AIFTA) in designing future regional trading architecture (RTA). To date, the negotiations on future regional trading architecture in the Asia–Pacific region have split into two blocs: the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). By considering some essential factors, it would be to the advantage of AIFTA members to focus on negotiations under the RCEP rather than the TPP. There are at least three ways in which the AIFTA could play a significant role in the:”) course of future RTA in the Asia–Pacific region: strengthening unity of the RCEP; redressing power imbalances among RCEP participating countries; and becoming a hub for other regions.
