Abstract

Despite the large value of GRDP and investment at province level, the level of employment and income distribution still tends to fluctuate. The study aims to analyze the effect of development and investment in the agricultural sector on employment in the agricultural sector and income distribution. The type of this research is descriptive-quantitative using secondary data. This study uses multiple linear regression analysis of panel data. The analysis is divided into two models, the first model analyzes the impact of development and investment in the agricultural sector on employment in the agricultural sector, while the second model analyzes the same variables on income inequality. The results of the first model show that the development of the agricultural sector has a significant and positive effect on employment in the agricultural sector, while investment in the agricultural sector has an insignificant on employment in the agricultural sector. The results of the second model show that the development of the agricultural sector has a significant and negative effect on income inequality, while investment in the agricultural sector has an insignificant effect on income inequality. The implication of the results is that the government should maintain and improve the quality of the agricultural sector by implementing policies that encourage agricultural productivity and carry out equitable development of facilities and infrastructure to support agricultural activities in remote areas.

Abstract

Since the reform era in 1999, Indonesia has made a regional expansion policy and widespread fiscal decentralization policy. During the 1999-2014 period, Indonesia's autonomous regions increased by 70 percent compared to the previous period. Based on the Leviathan hypothesis, the two policies should create a competitive climate and increase the efficiency of government spending. This study aims to analyze the application of the Leviathan hypothesis in the policy of regional expansion and fiscal decentralization in Indonesia. The study uses panel data regression from 32 provinces during the 2002-2020 period. The study results show that the Leviathan hypothesis does not apply to Indonesia's regional expansion and fiscal decentralization policies. This condition happened because the division of regions in Indonesia was caused more by political interests. Most regional revenues still depend on transfers from the central government. The results of this study imply that to obtain tangible benefits from regional expansion, a thorough understanding of regional economic potential is needed, and the need to improve the quality of human resources to optimally utilize regional potentials so that regional independence will be created.

Abstract

There is an ongoing debate in the field of minimum wage literature, with different theories predicting varying impacts on employment. According to neoclassical theory, when the minimum wage increases and becomes binding, employment decreases. However, the monopsony labor market theory predicts that minimum wage can increase employment. Empirical examination in Indonesia has yielded mixed results, depending on the data and empirical model specification. Our study used panel data of regencies/cities in Java Island between 2017 to 2021 period and the fixed effect estimation method. We found that the minimum wage can increase employment in the formal sector, but the effect diminishes as non-compliance increases. This suggests that the benefit of a minimum wage in protecting workers depends on enforcement and that weak enforcement and setting a minimum wage too high may cause more non-compliance, which could harm formal employment. Keywords: Minimum wage, Compliance, Employment

Abstract

One of the infrastructures built to enhance global relations in Yogyakarta is Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA), located in Kulon Progo Regency. The airport is also equipped with supporting infrastructure, namely Airport Train. The government hopes that the construction of YIA will have an impact on the economy, especially the DIY Province, both directly and indirectly. Thus, this study aims to identify the impact of the economic shock of the construction of YIA using the 2016 DIY Province 52 Industry Input-Output tables issued and updated by the Central Bureau of Statistics in May 2021. This study found that the multiplier effect on the economy is greater than economic shocks with the construction sector being the most affected sector with a value of IDR 12.8 trillion. It can be concluded that the construction of YIA and its supporting infrastructure brought a positive impact on the economy of the DIY Province.

Abstract

Indonesian tourism sector becomes an important part of national development planning over the past decade. However, the development of the tourism sector stimulates many negative ecological issues, such as garbage deposits, emissions, and other environmental degradation. Tourism has a complex relationship with the economy and ecological quality, so it is essential to investigate the progress of a tourism-economy-ecology system. An integrated study of the system can be analyzed using the coupling coordination degree method (CCDM). This method provides an overview of the interaction rate and the level of coordination in the systems over time. The findings show that the degree of coupling between tourism-economy-ecology systems increases from run-in to high phases. This condition indicates that there was a strong connection between the systems during the observation. Meanwhile, the degree of coupling coordination constitutes an ever-increasing evolution from approaching disorder to well coordination. It shows that the systems are increasingly supportive of each other. Conversely, the higher level of coordination is accompanied by a decline in the environmental system. Promoting ecological quality is a critical policy for sustainable tourism growth, and it demands more attention from all parties involved in the tourism industry.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the model of Indonesia's economic growth in 2013-2022 with dynamic panel data through the SYS-GMM and FD-GMM approaches, so that the variables that influence short-term and long-term economic growth can be identified. The research method used is quantitative descriptive analysis. The data used comes from the Central Statistics Agency of 34 provinces in Indonesia 2013-2022. This study found that economic growth was significantly positively influenced by the variables of inflation, foreign investment, and household consumption. Economic growth is significantly negatively affected by domestic investment variables, regional minimum wages, and open unemployment rates. Inflation, foreign investment, and household consumption have short-term impacts on economic growth, while domestic investment, regional minimum wages, and the open unemployment rate have long-term impacts on economic growth. Research finds economic growth is influenced by the previous year. The policy implication is that the government focuses on factors that increase economic growth

Abstract

This study identifies and assesses the impact of transfers to regions, local-own source revenue (Pendapatan Asli Daerah, PAD), gross regional domestic product, population, and construction cost index (CCI) on fiscal stress in regencies / cities in Maluku Province in 2015-2022. The data was obtained from Statistics Indonesia and Directorate of Financial Balance of the Ministry of Finance, analyzed quantitatively using panel data regression analysis and a fixed effect model obtained through Hausman test. The results indicate that the transfers to regions and PAD have a negative and significant impact on the fiscal stress, in contrast to the CCI. They suggest that higher transfers to regions and PAD would decrease the fiscal stress, and the CCI was a determinant in the local expenditure to increase regional growth and community services. The stress caused by limited PAD might be alleviated by the availability of potential regional resources and readiness of human resources.

Abstract

Livelihood analysis involves perceptions and complexities, as it encompasses a bottom-up approach and is context-dependent, focusing on individuals, households, communities, and social groups. Furthermore, livelihood adaptation is crucial to cope with various risks and shocks, which pose a greater threat for vulnerable residents living in a slum area. This analysis attempts to understand the forms of livelihood adaptation and constraints within the area. This understanding also contributes to a valuable discussion on livelihood and better interventions. The Garrett’s ranking is employed to identify and analyze these forms and constraints. The dominant adaptation forms involve job seeking, land and tools utilization, counting on family support, and increasing societal concern for others. The key constraints comprise limited job opportunities, inequality, damaged infrastructure, inappropriate social assistance, and uncertain natural disruption. Both adaptation forms and constraints are interconnected, and resolving constraints is needed to facilitate effective adaptation.

Abstract

East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province is a strategic area bordering Timor-Leste, with significant potential in agriculture and trade. However, NTT faces food insecurity issues, reflected in high poverty rates and malnutrition prevalence, making it the province with the highest malnutrition rate in Indonesia. This study uses Multiple Linear Regression Method to analyze the impact of climate change, accessibility, education, agricultural diversification programs, and community participation on food security. A sample of 150 farmers from Kupang, South Central Timor, North Central Timor, Belu, and Malaka districts was randomly selected. The results show that these five variables significantly affect food security in NTT, both partially and simultaneously. Strategic recommendations include adopting climate change adaptation programs, improving accessibility, education, agricultural diversification, and strengthening community participation in decision-making processes.

Abstract

Due to the presence of a low level of urbanization in developing countries, the horizontal expansion of cities/towns is obvious and results in a rapid rate of urbanization. To monitor the horizontal expansion/growth of the Burayu town from 1986 to 2020 and forecasting by 2030, a time series and high-resolution aerial and satellite images were used. Besides, GIS tools and techniques were applied to organize and analyze the data. Results indicate that the town of Burayu horizontally expanded by 6,331 Ha from year 1986 to 2020; and will expand doubly by 2030.To monitor the growth/ expansion of towns and cities of the urban extent, the town administration and decision-makers should promote; the compact city and mixed-use principles, as well as the regional planning approaches.
