Abstract

This study aims to determine the social and economic variables that influence workers to become migrant workers. This research was conducted in Central Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara. As a sample in this study, we surveyed 100 people, consisting of 50 ex-migrant workers and 50 local workers. The analytical tool used was logit analysis. The estimation results show that the influential social variables are gender, age, marital status, and education. Economic variables that affect former migrant workers include ownership of savings, ownership of loans, ownership of agricultural land, and ownership of livestock, all of which have a negative effect. The policy implications of this research are the need for new regulations or revisions to previous regulations to improve human resources at the time of pre-placement. This regulation should involve training in language skills and the abilities required for the relevant field of work to increase competitiveness. Furthermore, policies to empower migrant workers post-placement should be implemented to provide more significant opportunities and support for working or starting businesses in their home countries.JEL Classification: J61, O15How to Cite:Haer, J., & Yuniarti, D.

Abstract

Indonesia recorded the lowest average foreign tourist arrivals compared to ASEAN central countries, thus proving that Indonesia has yet to be thoroughly used as the primary destination for foreign tourists. Market forces influence the low number of foreign tourist arrivals in Indonesia. This study analyzes the impact of determining factors of ASEAN tourism demand in Indonesia. Panel data analysis with the Fixed Effect Model selection model was used to explore Indonesia’s tourism demand from five ASEAN countries from 2001 to 2020. The results showed that tourist expenditure, CPI, terrorism, and COVID-19 significantly negatively affect the number of Indonesian tourist visits. In contrast, the exchange rate and GDP per capita significantly positively impact the number of Indonesian tourist visits. Indonesia needs to improve the quality of tourism products and services to increase foreign tourist arrivals and implement international cooperation to create promotions for domestic tourism.JEL Classification: C33, L83, Z3How to Cite:Nugraha, Y.

Abstract

In some developing countries, the instrument to alleviate the poverty is by using the economic growth. So, the increasing in investment, infrastructure development, and macroeconomics stability always be priority from developing countries. In this article explain that economic growth is not the important factor to alleviate the poverty, because equality sometimes is more important rather than the economic growth. In this context, its measure by inequality growth trade off index (IGTI). This method is to measure the influence of economic growth to reducing the inequality, with this method every country can measure which one is better to reducing the poverty whether the economic growth or equality. With this method, Laos in 2000 show that economic growth is more important than equality, but in the same year in Thailand show that equality is more important than economic growth.DOI: 10.15408/sjie.v1i1.2592

Abstract

Fiscal sustainability can be determined and assessed using financial technology (FinTech). Consequently, a new indicator of fiscal sustainability can be constructed. This study also estimates threshold levels of public debt and budget deficit by considering institutions for 88 developing and 35 developed countries in 2014 and 2017. The principal component analysis (PCA) and the cross-section threshold regression are employed. The main findings revealed that the threshold levels of public debt-to-GDP ratio for developed and developing countries in 2014 were 100.37% and 63.04%, while that in 2017 were 90.09% and 84.28%, respectively. Moreover, the threshold levels of budget deficit-to-GDP ratio for developed and developing countries in 2014 were -3.04% and -1.24%, while those in 2017 were -0.97% and -5.75%, respectively. Therefore, policymakers should emphasize a certain public debt and budget deficit level to warrant a fiscally sustainable level.JEL Classification: C13, E62, H60 How to Cite:Cahyadin, M., Sarmidi, T., Khalid, N. & Law, S.

Abstract

Research Originality: This research is original in its examination of the spatial influence of financial development on poverty in Indonesia.Research Objectives: This study investigates the impact of financial development on poverty reduction in Indonesia.Research Methods: This study employs a spatial econometric approach, analyzing data from 2016 to 2021. Key variables include credit-to-GDP ratio, third-party funding-to-GDP ratio, government spending, the human development index, and deposits-to-GDP ratio.Empirical Results: The findings reveal significant spatial dependence in poverty across Indonesian regions. The credit-to-GDP ratio did not significantly reduce poverty, whereas the third-party funding-to-GDP ratio showed a positive and significant effect on poverty reduction. Government spending, the human development index, and the deposits-to-GDP ratio contributed to poverty alleviation.Implications: These results suggest that Indonesia's financial sector development has not effectively reduced poverty. Policymakers should focus on targeted financial reforms, regional coordination, and improving socio-economic factors to enhance poverty reduction efforts.JEL Classification: C31, G21, I32, O18

Abstract

Research Originality: This study provides a new perspective on the dynamics between foreign direct investment (FDI), idiosyncratic risk, and economic growth in ASEAN countries using structural equation modeling (SEM). It contributes to the literature by highlighting the nuanced role of idiosyncratic risk in shaping regional economic outcomes.Research Objectives: The study aims to examine the direct and indirect impacts of FDI inflows, idiosyncratic risk, and sectoral variables (manufacturing, agriculture, and services) on economic growth in ASEAN from 2013 to 2023.Research Methods: The study uses data from the ASEAN Statistical Database and applies SEM to estimate the relationships between these variables.Empirical Result: The main findings indicate that FDI inflows have minimal impact on idiosyncratic risk, as evidenced by regression coefficients below 0.001 for inward and intra-ASEAN FDI. In contrast, idiosyncratic risk significantly impacts economic growth. The results also reveal that sectoral variables such as manufacturing, agriculture, and services exhibit weaker associations with economic growth.Implications: This information suggests that policymakers should focus on exploiting idiosyncratic risk to improve economic development, while acknowledging the limited direct impact of FDI on risk management, thereby debating more appropriate strategies to promote sustainable economic growthJEL Classification: A11, E60, H11

Abstract

Research Originality: Poverty is an important issue in the discussion of economic development. The problem of household poverty in Indonesia is not enough to be analyzed at the macro level; it should also be analyzed in microeconomic settings. Research Objectives: This study uses secondary data sourced from the results of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) surveys in 2007 and 2014 to determine the trends in household characteristics (social, economic, and demographic) and their influence on the level of welfare of poor households, the share of household spending inequality, and poverty alleviation strategies through a household-based policy approach in Indonesia.Research Methods: Meanwhile, the research method used is Multinomial Logistic Regression.Empirical Results: The results of the study found that the education level of the head of the household, place of residence, and household size contributed to the value of the opportunity of the household welfare position in each category. Meanwhile, Javanese have the highest level of inequality in terms of ethnic expenditure distribution and the lowest in terms of welfare.Implications: This study implies that the condition of the head of the family dramatically influences welfare at the household level.JEL Classification: C49, O11, Q01, R58
