Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the macroeconomic conditions of districts/cities in Bengkulu Province. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach. This quantitative approach is used by researchers to measure changes in conditions by increasing and decreasing data for each macroeconomic indicator. This study uses secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency from 2019-2020. Based on the results of the study, district/city macroeconomic indicators were negatively and positively affected during the pandemic. Based on six macroeconomic indicators, it can be concluded that the area that was most negatively affected during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 was Bengkulu City, where 5 of the indicators experienced a decline with 3 of them the largest decline compared to other regions. The implementation of the Large-Scale Social Restrictions (LSSR) policy to prevent the spread has had an impact on economic activities which have an impact on decreasing economic growth, decreasing per capita income, increasing unemployment, increasing poverty, increasing the Gini ratio and increasing the human development index. Meanwhile, North Bengkulu Regency has a positive impact on 4 macroeconomic indicators, namely: an increase in the human development index, a decrease in unemployment, a decrease in poverty and a decrease in the Gini ratio.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of economic growth and inflation on unemployment in Indonesia over the period 1990-2021. Okun's Law states that there is a relationship between economic growth and unemployment, where the percentage increase in economic growth will be offset by a greater change in the unemployment rate. In other side, the classical Philips curve indicates a trade-off between inflation and unemployment. The data used in this study are secondary data of economic growth, unemployment rate, and inflation rate in Indonesia, obtained from Central Bureau of Statistics and Bank Indonesia website. The data was processed using the autoregressive distribution lag model (ARDL)  to obtain the regression coefficients. Aggregated data results show a negative relationship between economic growth and inflation to the unemployment rate. Thus, the authorities must focus on sustaining economic growth and inflation to reduce the unemployment rate in Indonesia.   Keywords :  Economic Growth1, Unemployment Rate2, Inflation 3

Abstract

The contradictory economic conjuncture of economic growth and income inequality began with the continuous economic recession and was strengthened by the pressure of the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this research is to reveal and analyze the causes of the problem of economic contraction and income inequality in Bengkulu and Kepulauan Riau Provinces. The type of data collected only comes from secondary data, namely from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), which is analyzed using statistical analysis and descriptive analysis methods. The research results showed that the trend of economic growth and economic inequality in the two provinces (Bengkulu and Kepulauan Riau) are both decreasing. The bad influence (backwash effect) in the form of a global economic recession and the Covid-19 pandemic case (2019–2020) is considered to be the cause of economic contraction in the form of a decline in economic growth which is extreeme/minus (-0.02 in Bengkulu Province and -3.80 in Kepulauan Riau Province). The trend of income inequality (measured by the Gini index) which is decreasing from year to year is considered a form of contradiction (anomaly) because it is considered to be at odds with the decline in economic growth at the same time. Keywords: Economic contraction, Economic growth, Income inequality, Economic recession
