Abstract

The manufacturing sector is a strategic pillar of regional economic development due to its significant role in generating added value and creating employment opportunities. However, in Palu City, the growth of this sector has not consistently translated into proportional increases in employment absorption. This study aims to analyze the elasticity of manufacturing sector growth with respect to its contribution to employment absorption in Palu City over the period 2019–2023. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, utilizing secondary data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) of Palu City and relevant agencies. The data set comprises the manufacturing sector’s Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), the number of workers in the manufacturing sector, and the total workforce in Palu City. The analysis involved calculating both output and employment growth rates, followed by the computation of labor absorption elasticity using the elasticity ratio formula. The results reveal that the relationship between manufacturing output growth and employment absorption in Palu City is volatile and not always proportional, as indicated by the elasticity measurements of manufacturing GRDP growth relative to employment growth in the sector. Certain years recorded negative elasticity values, reflecting inverse relationships driven by internal sectoral dynamics such as efficiency gains, technological adoption, and external shocks including the COVID-19 pandemic. The study concludes that although the manufacturing sector makes a substantial contribution to economic growth, its impact on job creation remains suboptimal. As such, integrated policies are needed to align industrial growth with sustainable employment and improve regional welfare.

Abstract

Poverty remains one of the most pressing development challenges in Central Java, where regional disparities and limited fiscal capacity continue to hinder the effectiveness of poverty alleviation programs. Despite substantial transfers from the central government, inefficiencies in fund allocation combined with low fiscal independence at the local level have slowed progress in reducing poverty. This study examines the impact of regional fiscal instruments and macroeconomic factors on poverty levels across 34 districts and cities in Central Java from 2017 to 2020. Using panel data and the Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) method, supported by diagnostic tests to ensure the model meets the BLUE (Best Linear Unbiased Estimator) criteria. The findings reveal that Regional Original Income (PAD), Other Legitimate Income, and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita play a role in reducing poverty, although the effects of PAD and Other Legitimate Income are only marginally significant. By contrast, Balancing Funds from the central government are positively and significantly associated with higher poverty rates, suggesting inefficiencies in their distribution and utilization. The Open Unemployment Rate is found to have no significant effect on poverty during the study period. Taken together, these results underscore the importance of strengthening local fiscal capacity, enhancing the efficiency of central government transfers, and promoting inclusive economic growth as integral components of long-term poverty reduction strategies in the region.

Abstract

MSMEs are vital to Indonesia's economy, making a substantial contribution to GDP and employment. Nevertheless, a number of MSME players encounter obstacles such restricted capital availability, weak financial management abilities, and a lack of appropriate business mentoring. This study aims to analyze the role of the Cooperative, MSME, and Labor Department of Palu City in empowering Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) actors in 2022. The method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach. Data sources in this study consist of primary and secondary data. Primary data was obtained through direct interviews with staff of the Cooperative, MSME, and Labor Department of Palu City who work in the MSME field. Secondary data was obtained from official documents and archives (RSIP) owned by the department, particularly those related to MSME empowerment programs. Data collection techniques used include interviews, documentation, and collection of related documents from relevant agencies. Research results show that the Cooperative, MSME, and Labor Department of Palu City has implemented various empowerment programs, such as providing equipment and capital assistance, as well as business mentoring. The total business capital funds distributed to 1,101 MSME actors reached Rp2,202,000,000, and equipment assistance was adjusted according to each type of business. This program positively impacts MSME growth and poverty reduction in Palu City, despite challenges like low awareness of training, uneven mentoring, and limited capacity in business management and financial recording. Therefore, more intensive, integrated, and sustainable empowerment strategies are needed to optimally improve MSME capacity and competitiveness.

Abstract

Unemployment remains a critical challenge for the Indonesian economy, including in Central Sulawesi Province. Economic growth, measured by Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), and human development quality, measured by the Human Development Index (HDI), are two key factors suspected to influence the Open Unemployment Rate (TPT). This study aims to analyze the influence of GRDP and HDI on the Open Unemployment Rate in Central Sulawesi Province from 2014 to 2023. This study utilised a descriptive quantitative research method using secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) for the period 2014–2023. Data collection techniques were carried out through documentation, while data analysis used elasticity analysis to measure the level of responsiveness of TPT changes to variations in GRDP and HDI. Based on the research, the results show that changes in GRDP have a significant and negative effect on the open unemployment rate in Central Sulawesi Province from 2014 to 2023. An increase in GRDP will reduce the open unemployment rate in Central Sulawesi Province. Changes in HDI have a significant and negative effect on the open unemployment rate in Central Sulawesi Province from 2014 to 2023. An increase in HDI will reduce the open unemployment rate in Central Sulawesi Province. The study concludes that both economic expansion and improvements in human capital are effective strategies for reducing unemployment in the region.

Abstract

Poverty eradication is a national priority in line with the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, which has prompted the Central Sulawesi Provincial Government to launch the Gercep Gaskan Berdaya Programme to strengthen the economic capacity of poor households through community empowerment. This programme targets Morowali as a priority location with the aim of increasing community independence, accelerating poverty reduction, and supporting regional development. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Community Empowerment-Based Poverty Alleviation Program (Gercep Gaskan Berdaya) in Morowali Regency, Central Sulawesi. The program represents a local government strategy to accelerate the reduction of extreme poverty through empowerment and community participation. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method using questionnaires distributed to 22 beneficiaries from Bahoea Reko-Reko Village and Nambo Village. Data were analyzed using simple tabulation, percentage calculation, and mean score comparison. The findings indicate that the program is effective, with an overall average score of 4.11, categorized as good. In Bahoea Reko-Reko Village, the program’s effectiveness is more evident in skill improvement and targeting accuracy, while in Nambo Village it is more dominant in participation and economic sustainability aspects. However, the direct impact on household welfare remains limited, highlighting the need to strengthen household-level interventions. This study recommends enhancing community participation, improving transparency in beneficiary validation, and developing family-based economic empowerment initiatives to ensure program sustainability.

Abstract

Despite extensive literature on family and demographic factors influencing career choices, their specific intersection and impact on students in Business and Accountancy programs remain an underexplored area in the Philippines' higher education. This descriptive-correlational study investigated the impact of family and demographic factors on students' career choices at the College of Management, Business, and Accountancy at Cebu Institute of Technology–University (CIT-U). A total of 109 respondents, representing 10% of the enrolled population in the second semester of AY 2024–2025, participated in the survey. Descriptive statistics summarized students’ perceptions of family influence and career preferences, while Chi-square tests and logistic regression models assessed associations and predictive relationships. The results showed that while students increasingly value independence in their choices, families primarily influence career decisions through financial support and encouragement. Employability and financial feasibility emerged as the strongest drivers of career preferences, with financial uncertainty reducing career confidence. Demographic variables, such as age, gender, income, and parents’ education, showed significant associations with family influence or career preferences. However, older students demonstrated greater autonomy in decision-making.  The study emphasized the importance of balancing family involvement, financial support, and career empowerment initiatives while respecting students’ independence. In line with the results, recommendations include strengthening family-inclusive career guidance, providing employability programs, and addressing financial challenges. Policymakers are recommended to promote equitable funding and access to higher education to support informed, independent decision-making for career choices.

Abstract

The hospitality industry plays a vital role in supporting the tourism sector, where effective internal control systems are essential to ensure efficiency, accountability, and cost control in operational processes such as food procurement. This research explores the application of internal control in the food procurement process at Anantara Uluwatu Bali Resort, utilizing the five core components of the COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission) internal control framework. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data gathered through interviews, direct observations, and documentation review. The results reveal that the resort has implemented a foundational internal control system supported by organizational structures, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and an integrated information system Visual Hotel Program (VHP). Nevertheless, certain implementation gaps were identified, such as overlapping responsibilities between receiving and storekeeping functions, the lack of a formal risk assessment system, and frequent reliance on undocumented informal communication. Furthermore, the monitoring activities remain limited and are mainly carried out through informal daily briefings rather than systematic internal audits. In summary, the internal control practices within the food procurement operations at the hotel are not yet fully effective. To enhance the system's performance, improvements are needed in areas such as segregation of duties, risk identification, procedural compliance, and the establishment of routine internal monitoring mechanisms.

Abstract

The city of Medan is a drug haven in North Sumatra as evidenced by the high number of drug abuse cases. Victims of drug abuse need to receive rehabilitation. The Medan City Social Service and the Medan Plus Foundation organized rehabilitation as a form of collaborative governance. This research aims to analyze collaborative governance between the Medan City Social Service and the Medan Plus Foundation for the rehabilitation of drug abuse victims. This research uses qualitative descriptive research. The data obtained was analyzed qualitatively using the collaborative governance model according to Ansell and Gash which consists of several stages, namely: initial conditions, institutional design, facilitative leadership, and collaborative processes. The research results show that first, the initial conditions between the Medan City Social Service and the Medan Plus Foundation were supported by human resource dependency. Second, the institutional design regarding drug rehabilitation is structured from the center to the regions. Third, the facilitative leadership of the Medan City Social Service leads collaboration in handling victims. Fourth, the collaborative process in drug rehabilitation runs well between the two parties through face-to-face dialogue with a sense of trust, commitment and mutual understanding based on regulations. On the one hand, both of them must remind each other and invite each other to hold meetings in collaboration.

Abstract

A company's financial performance can be a factor considered by investors planning to invest. Financial statements serve as an important tool to evaluate a company's ability to generate profits, manage assets, and provide returns to shareholders. Therefore, financial performance analysis is needed to provide an overview of the company's health condition as well as the prospects for its business sustainability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the financial performance of PT Indofood CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk. for the 2022-2024 period using profitability indicators, namely Net Profit Margin (NPM), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE). The results of the analysis indicate a positive trend, reflecting consistent improvement in the company’s profitability over the three-year period. This is reflected in the NPM, ROA, and ROE values, which continued to increase from 2022-2024, although the increase decreased from 2023 to 2024 compared to the increase from 2022-2023. From 2022-2024, the NPM values were 9.36%; 11.57%; and 11.57%, respectively and 11.87%. ROA values were 5.26%, 6.59%, and 6.84%. ROE values were 10.55%, 12.65%, and 12.86%. It is recommended that the company implement efficiency measures to increase profits. Although the rate of increase experienced a slowdown in 2024, overall the company was able to improve the effectiveness of asset and capital management as well as increase the ability to generate profit. By implementing efficiency and strengthening operational strategy, the company has the potential to maintain or even improve its financial performance in the following period.

Abstract

Regional retributions are one of the most significant sources of Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD), serving as an indicator of a region’s fiscal independence. In Indonesia, many local governments, including the Maluku Barat Daya Regency, still rely heavily on central government transfers, making the optimization of PAD through effective retribution management crucial. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness and contribution of regional retribution to the Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD) of the Maluku Barat Daya Regency during the period 2017–2021. The research employs a descriptive quantitative method. The data used are secondary data obtained from the Regional Revenue Agency (BAPENDA), specifically from the realization reports of the regional budget (APBD). The results indicate that the effectiveness of regional retribution revenue fluctuated throughout the observed period and has not yet reached the targeted level. Some types of retributions, such as public service retributions and certain licensing retributions, showed relatively high effectiveness in the early years but declined significantly during 2020–2021. Meanwhile, the contribution of regional retribution to PAD remained low and showed no significant growth over the five-year period. Overall, regional retribution has not made a substantial contribution to the local revenue of Maluku Barat Daya Regency. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the effectiveness of collection, supervision, and taxpayer awareness, as well as to implement digital systems to strengthen regional fiscal independence. The findings of this study support the stewardship theory, emphasizing the government’s responsibility to manage public revenues transparently, efficiently, and accountably.
