Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the Human Development Index (HDI) in the Asia Pacific, that is, the level of health measured by life expectancy at birth, education measured by average years of schooling, and a decent living rate reflected by gross national income per capita. This research uses a quantitative approach and uses panel data regression analysis for the period 2018-2023. Based on the statistical results that researchers have carried out, the economic growth variable has a positive and insignificant effect on the human development index (HDI), the health level variable has a significant positive effect on the human development index (HDI), the education level variable has a positive and significant effect on the human development index (HDI). The variable of living conditions has a positive and significant effect on the human development index (HDI). Simultaneously, the variables of economic growth, health level, education level, and livable rate have a positive and significant effect on the human development index (HDI).

Abstract

The development of regional economic potential plays a strategic role in supporting national growth, particularly through Kawasan Ekonomi Khusus (KEK). Southeast Sulawesi, as part of the Sulawesi Economic Corridor under Indonesia’s Masterplan for Acceleration and Expansion of Economic Development (MP3EI), has been designated as a "Center for the Production and Processing of Agricultural, Plantation, Fishery, and Nickel Mining Products". This study aims to evaluate the alignment between the KEK theme and Southeast Sulawesi’s regional economic potential using the Location Quotient (LQ), Dynamic Location Quotient (DLQ), Shift-Share Analysis, and Klassen Typology methods. The results reveal two key sectors: the fishery subsector and the basic metal industry subsector. The fishery subsector is supported by abundant marine resources and high-export commodities such as frozen octopus, seaweed, and pelagic fish. Meanwhile, the basic metal industry is driven by the region’s vast nickel reserves, producing ferronickel and stainless steel for export. This study concludes that the KEK development aligns well with the region’s potential.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of tourism development and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) on regional competitiveness across Indonesian provinces. Using cross-sectional data from all provinces in 2022, the research employs multiple regression analysis with comprehensive classical assumption testing to assess these relationships. Data was sourced from three national institutions: the Regional Competitiveness Index from BRIN, tourism development data from the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, and ICT development data from Central Bureau of Statistics. The analysis reveals significant positive relationships between both predictors and regional competitiveness, with tourism development emerging as the stronger predictor. The findings demonstrate that provinces investing in tourism development and ICT infrastructure gain substantial competitive advantages. These results provide important implications for policymakers, suggesting that an integrated approach incorporating both tourism and ICT development initiatives might yield optimal results for enhancing regional competitiveness. The study contributes to the understanding of regional development dynamics in developing economies, particularly in the Indonesian context, offering valuable insights for policy formulation and strategic planning in regional development.

Abstract

This study analyzes the factors that influence Indonesia’s exports to 10 destination countries, namely China, USA, Japan, India, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Rep. Korea, Vietnam, and the Netherlands, during 2018-2022 using a panel data regression model. The variables used are the number of workforce, digital economy, per capita income, and foreign investment as independent variables. At the same time, total exports are the dependent variable. The results of the analysis show that the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) is the best, where per capita income, foreign investment, and exchange rates do not have a significant effect on exports. This study found that the workforce and digital economy positively affect Indonesia’s exports. Countries with a skilled workforce and the application of digital technology encourage increased exports through increased productivity and operational efficiency. The existence of Indonesian economic policies that emphasize the development of workforce quality and the adoption of digital technology can provide insights that can be realized in activities. Implications provide insight into creating digital infrastructure from various parties that can collaborate to create a digital infrastructure for exports.

Abstract

Traditional markets are important in society's economy, especially for small traders. The increasing competition with modern retail and various economic challenges require traders to have the right strategies to improve their welfare. One of the factors that contributes to maintaining the stability and sustainability of traders' businesses is social capital, which includes social networks, trust, and norms that prevail in the trading environment. From an Islamic economic perspective, social capital can strengthen the principles of justice, transparency, and cooperation. Using an Islamic economic approach, this study examines how social capital contributes to improving the welfare of traders in Tugu Market, Bandar Lampung. The research method used is qualitative descriptive, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that social capital influences three main aspects: economic, social, and spiritual. From the economic side, cooperation and good relationships among traders are highlighted. In the social aspect, the culture of mutual assistance strengthens relationships and solidarity among traders. Finally, from the spiritual aspect, the application of Islamic economic principles in business is emphasised. Therefore, policies that support the revitalisation of markets are needed to optimise the sustainable improvement of traders' welfare.

Abstract

The oil and gas trade deficit can negatively impact Indonesia’s economy in the long term, highlighting the need to identify key factors influencing oil and gas imports. This study analyzes the effects of inflation, exchange rates, and foreign exchange reserves on oil and gas imports using the Error Correction Model (ECM), which captures both short-term and long-term dynamics. Monthly data from January 2003 to December 2023 were used, with a natural logarithm transformation applied to address non-stationarity. The results show that, in the long term, inflation and foreign exchange reserves significantly and positively affect oil and gas imports, while the exchange rate has a significant negative effect. In the short term, these variables show no significant impact except for the error correction term (ECT), which is negative and significant—indicating a gradual adjustment toward long-term equilibrium. The findings support policy efforts focused on maintaining price stability, exchange rate management, and adequate foreign exchange reserves to ensure a more sustainable oil and gas trade balance.

Abstract

Brebes Regency ranks among the top ten regions in Central Java in terms of gross regional domestic product (GRDP) at constant prices (PDRB ADHK) and the highest percentage of poor population. Based on this disparity, the study aims to identify leading and potential economic sectors using Location Quotient (LQ), Shift Share, and Klassen Typology analyses, as well as to examine the effect of economic growth—represented by GRDP—on poverty levels in Brebes Regency from 2014 to 2024. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method using time series data of GRDP and poverty rates. The findings reveal that Brebes Regency’s economic sectors are diverse. First, the LQ analysis identifies five sectors with comparative advantages. Second, the Shift Share analysis highlights nine sectors with competitive advantages. Third, the Klassen Typology classifies sectors into advanced, potential, and underdeveloped quadrants. Regression analysis results indicate that economic growth, as reflected by GRDP, has a significant adverse effect on poverty reduction, meaning that an increase in economic growth is associated with a decrease in the percentage of the poor population.

Abstract

Digitalization has become a global and national priority to improve various aspects of life, including public services, infrastructure, education, economy, and healthcare. This study analyzes the impact of digitalization on life expectancy using panel data from 34 provinces in Indonesia for 2022–2024. Digitalization is measured using the Indonesia Digital Society Index (IMDI), while the dependent variable is life expectancy at birth. The econometric model was applied for the analysis with a fixed-effects panel data model, controlling for variables such as gross regional domestic product (GRDP) per capita, average salary, population density, average years of schooling, and unemployment rate. The results indicate that digitalization significantly impacts life expectancy, with a one-unit increase in the Indonesia Digital Society Index (IMDI) associated with a 1.6% increase in life expectancy. Additionally, years of schooling contribute positively, while the unemployment rate has an adverse effect. Improving digital literacy, education, and reducing unemployment are necessary to enhance society’s quality of life.

Abstract

This article examines the importance of effective communication in controlling inflation in Merauke Regency. Merauke, known for its geographical and economic challenges, requires a strong communication strategy to control inflation, which is often influenced by external and internal factors. Through a literature study of secondary data analysis, this article explores how effective communication between the government, the community, and the private sector can play a role in maintaining price stability and supporting sustainable economic development in an inflation control program. By adopting the right communication strategies, such as the use of mass media, direct socialization, and the involvement of community leaders, the government can increase public awareness and participation. Although there are challenges in communication infrastructure and varying literacy levels, increasing investment in infrastructure and community training can help overcome these challenges. The strategic recommendations provided in this study are hoped to help the government and other stakeholders design and implement effective communication strategies to control inflation in the Merauke Regency.
