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

The first part of this paper highlighted that there is wide diversity among all ten Southeast Asian countries. Then the discussion was followed by an assessment of the need to design and maintain good policies for the development of the Southeast Asian countries. In this section, the discussion focused on four main areas such as: (i) sound macroeconomic policies; (ii) the growth and trends in poverty of these countries; (iii) the industrial and technological development of these countries; and (iv) the need to achieve an environmentally sustainable development of these countries, particularly in regard to the preservation of Southeast Asia’s precious tropical hardwood forests.

Abstract

Political decentralisation in Indonesia has not necessarily brought progressive institutional changes leading to a more democratic society at the local level. When social capital is embedded in the ceremonially warranted patterns of behaviour, that is, patrimonial behaviour, the increase in social capital is restricted to the business-bureaucrat-politico networks -- the local political oligarchies. As a result, the increase in social capital at the local level is likely to be wasted by rent collecting. This is the reason progressive institutional changes remain far from complete, at least in the medium term. This paper also shows what could be done and what has been accomplished to push forward progressive institutional changes

Abstract

It has been learned that there are conflicting approaches between economic development and environmental preservation. It happens because economic development focuses on how to achieve the goals of development, often by exploiting natural resources, which can lead to environmental degradation. Information around the depletion of natural resources and environmental degradation has not been included within Indonesian economic indicators yet. Apparently, Indonesia has a high rate of economic growth, shown by the increasing amount of national income. Yet, this result can come up with the exclusion of the environmental costs. In fact, environmental exploitation and natural resources extraction, results of excessive economic growth, later on will eventually cause problems and might even hamper economic development. This paper investigates these issues because they are related to one of the indicators of sustainable development, that is, Genuine Net Saving, which is the indicator of whether economic development in Indonesia meets the terms of a weak sustainability criterion. Calculating genuine net saving is carried out by reducing Indonesia’s national saving as a cost of capital from depreciation, depletion of natural resources, and the cost of environmental degradation. The results indicate that development in Indonesia does not meet the criteria of weak sustainability, which means that it is not environmentally sustainable.

Abstract

It is generally accepted that one of the government’s responsibilities is to reduce income inequality. The most direct and easiest way to support poor people and stabilise prices is through subsidies. There are subsidies for energy and, for instance, for agricultural fertilisers, food and public utilities. Since 1998 in Indonesia, subsidies have tended to increase, especially energy subsidies (fuel and electricity). This paper used benefit incidence analysis, which allocates the benefits of subsidies to households from the poorest to the richest income groups. The major data used were from 2008 National Socioeconomic Survey (Susenas). This research was an important contribution to strengthening the literature on subsidies and income inequality in Indonesia. An important finding was that subsidies benefited the highest income households more than the lowest income households, even though subsidies reduced income inequality. The percentage of subsidy benefits to the lowest income group was higher than for the richest. In the long run, subsidy programs that favour the higher income households can worsen income inequality if the consumption of subsidised goods by high-income households increases gradually. I suggest that if the aim is at reducing income inequality, subsidies, other than those for energy, need to be increased and the subsidy system need to be improved by moving from price subsidies to targeted subsidies.
