Abstract

Following the implementation of fiscal decentralization, the Indonesian government has employed natural resource revenue-sharing funds as a mechanism to allocate revenues from the mining sector to producing areas. Nonetheless, research regarding the effects of fiscal windfall from mining at the local level in Indonesia remains scarce. This study aims to address the research gap by examining the impact of natural resource abundance through the distribution of mining revenue sharing funds on poverty on Sulawesi Island, the biggest nickel-producing and processing region in Indonesia. Analysis of panel data from 51 districts in Central Sulawesi, South Sulawesi, and Southeast Sulawesi for the period 2017-2022, utilizing the Fixed Effect estimation method, reveals that mining revenue sharing, intended to mitigate the adverse externalities of mining projects and alleviate poverty, is not statistically significant. Sub-sample analysis reveals that mining revenue sharing correlates with a rise in poverty rates in Southeast Sulawesi, indicating the presence of the resource curse phenomena. Simultaneously, the contributions of mining and industrial GRDP, the human development index, and the proportion of “Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH)” recipients affected the alleviation of poverty. This research underscores the necessity for the government to account for local fiscal capability and institutional quality in the administration of mining revenue sharing funds, while also advocating for economic diversification to enhance the welfare of local populations.

Abstract

The degradation of marine ecosystems and the underutilization of coastal resources have become major challenges in achieving sustainable economic growth in many coastal regions of Indonesia. Labuang Village in Majene Regency, which possesses abundant marine and coastal resources, faces similar issues related to limited resource optimization and weak institutional support. This research seeks to evaluate the Blue Economy potential of Labuang Village within the context of Embedded Sustainability, and the Sustainable Development Goals. This qualitative research was conducted employing a case study approach with five purposive participants to represent the primary stakeholders: fishermen, seaweed ranchers, village administration, and community leaders. Data were inquired through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document reviews, and were subsequently analyzed using NVivo to code by thematic analysis. The results of the research indicate that Labuang Village has significant potential in capture fishery, seaweed farming, and marine tourism, which impacts the attainment of SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and SDG 14 (Life Under Water). However, the potential remains dormant, as there is a glaring absence of infrastructure, funding, and technology. A triadic alliance of the state, community, and business actors is thus mandated to fully harness the potential of the region's Blue Economy.

Abstract

Economic growth usually shows how much a country has grown. The ASEAN-5 which includes Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, and the Philippines are important for Southeast Asia's economy. This study examines the effect of government spending, gross fixed capital formation, and labor on economic growth in the period 2000–2023 using secondary data from the World Bank. This study applies panel data regression through the Fixed Effects Model (FEM). The findings show that government spending, gross fixed capital formation, and labor have a positive and significant impact on economic growth in the ASEAN-5 countries. Thus, the effectiveness of government spending, optimization of fixed capital investment, and utilization of productive labor are important factors in promoting sustainable economic growth in the region.

Abstract

Commodity price movements have a significant impact on regional economic stability, especially in terms of inflation. In Central Java Province, fluctuations in the prices of rice, shallots, curly red chilies, red cayenne peppers, and cooking oil are the main causes of inflation. This phenomenon requires a more in-depth examination of the relationship between price fluctuations and inflation. This means that studies at the regional level are still limited. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of commodity price changes on inflation in Central Java. The data used is from 2021 to 2025 using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) - Error Correction Model (ECM) method. The data used is monthly secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the National Food Agency. The estimation results show that in the short term, the variables of curly red chili price, previous period curly red chili price, previous period rice price, and previous period cooking oil price have a significant effect on inflation, while in the long term, curly red chili price has a positive effect and rice price has a negative effect on inflation in Central Java. The CointEq(-1) coefficient, which has a value of -0.106705 and is significant, indicates the existence of a correction mechanism towards long-term equilibrium. This value suggests that around 10.67% of the deviation of inflation from its equilibrium in the previous period is adjusted or corrected during the current period.

Abstract

The Indonesian Sharia Stock Index (ISSI) is an indicator that represents the price performance of all sharia-compliant stocks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Over the past three years, ISSI capitalization has experienced significant growth. However, this development is still influenced by the dynamics of external factors, particularly macroeconomic variables such as inflation, the IDR exchange rate, and the BI 7-Day Reverse Repo Rate (BI 7-Day RR). The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of inflation, the IDR exchange rate, and the BI 7-Day RR on the ISSI and to examine the role of GDP in moderating this relationship. The study uses a quantitative associative approach with Indonesian time series data for the 2021–2023 period. Analysis techniques include classical assumption testing, multiple linear regression with a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach, and hypothesis testing. The results indicate that inflation has no significant effect on the ISSI. Conversely, the IDR exchange rate and the BI 7-Day RR were shown to have a significant effect on the ISSI. Other findings indicate that GDP strengthens the influence of the IDR exchange rate and the BI 7-Day RR on the ISSI, but does not moderate the relationship between inflation and the ISSI.

Abstract

Food security is a strategic issue and a priority for national development in Indonesia, particularly in provinces with significant agricultural potential such as Lampung. This study aims to identify leading and potential sectors that contribute to strengthening food security by applying Location Quotient (LQ), Growth Ratio Model (GRM), Overlay Analysis, and Spatial Analysis. The LQ results indicate seven basic sectors, including food crops, agricultural services, livestock, fisheries, plantations, horticulture, and the food and beverage industry. Further analysis through GRM and Overlay shows that livestock and the food and beverage industry are categorized as leading sectors, while food crops, agricultural services, fisheries, plantations, and horticulture are identified as potential sectors. Spatial analysis highlights Central Lampung, East Lampung, South Lampung, Tulang Bawang, and North Lampung as key regions with sectoral specialization, supported by natural resources, infrastructure, and industrial networks. The findings demonstrate that Lampung Province plays a vital role as a national food barn, but challenges remain, including land conversion, productivity disparities, and post-harvest management. Therefore, integrated policies that combine sectoral revitalization, spatial planning, and sustainable management are required. This research provides a comprehensive foundation for formulating regional economic development strategies to enhance food security resilience in Lampung Province.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of digital technology access, gender equality, regional economic development, and minimum wage policy on women’s labor force participation in Indonesia. Using an annual provincial panel data set for the period 2015-2024 (t = 10), yielding 340 annual observations, the analysis applies a dynamic panel regression based on an Error Correction Model to distinguish long-run relationships from short-run dynamics. The results confirm a long-run relationship between digitalization, the gender development index, gross regional domestic product per capita, the provincial minimum wage, and women’s labor force participation. In the long run, the gender development index, gross regional domestic product per capita, and the provincial minimum wage have positive and statistically significant effects on women’s participation, while digitalization has a positive but not yet significant effect. In the short run, changes in digitalization, the gender development index, and gross regional domestic product per capita positively and significantly affect changes in women’s labor force participation, whereas changes in the provincial minimum wage are not significant. These findings suggest that digitalization mainly acts as a short-run opportunity trigger, while progress in gender equality, rising regional prosperity, and an adequate minimum wage function as key structural determinants of stronger women’s labor force participation in the digital economy.

Abstract

Access to adequate sanitation facilities is a key agenda in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, but is still an urgent development issue in Indonesia. The equitable distribution of sanitation services between regions has not been fully achieved due to strong regional disparities, high levels of poverty, and ongoing socio-economic inequality. This study aims to analyze the socio-economic determinants that affect the level of community access to adequate sanitation facilities in Indonesia. The quantitative approach was used through regression analysis of panel data at the provincial level during the 2019-2023 period, utilizing secondary data sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the World Bank. The dependent variable in this study is the proportion of households that have access to proper sanitation facilities. Meanwhile, Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), Gini ratio, poverty rate, and life expectancy are used as independent variables that represent the economic condition of the region, income distribution, social vulnerability, and the level of welfare of the population. The results show that the increase in regional GRDP has a positive and significant effect on sanitation access. Life expectancy also positively related to the availability of good sanitation. On the contrary, higher income inequality and a large prevalence of poverty have been shown to decrease people's chances of obtaining proper sanitation services.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the influence of local food resources on food security and its impact on the local economy. The background of the research departs from the condition of North Sulawesi Province which has unique geographical characteristics with abundant natural resources, agriculture, and fisheries. Nevertheless, this region still faces challenges in the form of dependence on food supply from outside, fluctuations in commodity prices, and suboptimal economic diversification based on local potential. The research method used is to use a quantitative approach with path analysis using SEM-PLS. Primary data was obtained from 82 respondents involved in local food management and utilization. The results of the study show that food security has a direct and significant effect on the local economy. Local food resources have also been shown to have a direct and significant effect on food security, but do not have a direct effect on the local economy. In addition, there is a significant indirect influence of local food resources through food security on the local economy. This research is expected to contribute to the government as a policymaker in encouraging food security based on local potential to improve the local economy, especially in North Sulawesi Province.
