Abstract

Nowadays, the world relies heavily on digitalization. This study aims to analyze the effect of digitalization on economic growth in Indonesia. This study used panel data from 32 provinces in Indonesia, ranging from year 2017 to 2023. This study employed fixed and dynamic panel models with economic growth as the dependent variable and stock of capital and labor digitalization as independent variables. Digitalization is proxied by the access and infrastructure sub-index, the usage sub-index, and the skills sub-index. The estimation result shows that variables of stock of capital, labor, and digital economic development in Indonesia positively affect economic growth, and we also find that heterogeneity effects exist between different provinces. However, there is no significant effect on the dynamic panel models on generalized method moment. The results draw three implications: increasing investment in physical capital stock, improving human capital quality, and promoting Information and Communication Technology (ICT) readiness.

Abstract

The capital city functions as a hub for government and commerce. Moving Indonesia’s capital is expected to minimize the economic gap between Java and other regions while addressing Jakarta's increasing unfitness due to overcrowding, environmental decline, and low living standards. Nonetheless, society's readiness is still an essential concern. This research employed an explanatory method with a retrospective design to investigate how individuals' behaviors, which are influenced by their readiness and support for IKN as an eco-friendly capital, shaped their expectations of IKN as a sustainable city. Our findings underscore the urgency of the situation. The current environmental behaviors of the Indonesian people may not be sufficient for realizing a green city. Immediate action is needed to address this. To succeed, the IKN needs better infrastructure, enhanced public transportation, improved walking pathways, and lifestyle changes that encourage sustainability, like using renewable energy and reducing CO2 emissions.

Abstract

The research aims to identify the potential independence of the MSME actors in villages in Muara Tami District, on the border of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea (PNG). Using a qualitative descriptive method with SWOT analysis, we seek to find strengths and opportunities as an overview of the potential independence of the MSME actors. The research focuses on indigenous Papuans (OAP) who operate the MSME business in the Muara Tami District. The data collection technique uses observation, interview, and documentation study. Three research stages were employed: exploration, interpretation, and contextualization. The results show that the MSME actors have the potential to create independence in developing their business activities by utilizing their strengths and opportunities as well as overcoming the weaknesses and threats faced. In the SWOT analysis, MSME actors are in the first quadrant, indicating the strengths and opportunities that can be used to develop MSME activities in the region.

Abstract

This study examines corporate social responsibility, mainly focusing on the disclosure of energy practices in the non-cyclical consumer sector. This research aims to examine the effects of both financial factors, including financial performance and leverage, and governance factors, consisting of management ownership and directors, on energy disclosure practices. We collected a dataset of 98 data samples from non-cyclical consumer sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2021 and 2022 using a purposive sampling method. This research hypothesis was tested using multiple linear regressions. The findings reveal that financial performance and directorship have a significant positive impact on energy disclosure, whereas leverage has a notable negative effect. In contrast, management ownership has minimal influence. Our research adds to the current discussion on corporate sustainability, emphasizing the crucial influence of financial and governance considerations on energy disclosure.

Abstract

The Food Estate program was initiated to support national food security by enhancing food production on peatlands. However, its implementation faces various challenges, including difficult land conditions and the need for adequate infrastructure. This study aims to identify key factors influencing the sustainability of the Food Estate program in Central Kalimantan, particularly in the Kapuas and Pulang Pisau districts. This study employs the MICMAC method (Matrix of Crossed Impact Multiplications Applied to a Classification) to analyze the impact of strategic variables, such as government policy, infrastructure, institutional support, and local economy. The findings indicate that government policy and infrastructure support are dominant factors affecting the program's success, while variables like local economy and farmers’ income heavily depend on these factors. Recommendations include the need for sustainable policy enhancement, development of supporting infrastructure, improved market access, and adaptive technology training for farmers. With optimal implementation, the Food Estate program is expected to not only enhance national food security but also foster economic growth and improve the welfare of local communities in Central Kalimantan.

Abstract

Forests are ecosystems that provide various important services for humanity, especially in mitigating climate change. Forests in Indonesia, as carbon absorbers and stores, have large market potential, where the carbon market provides opportunities to fund forestry sector projects. However, the forestry sector in Indonesia has not been able to take maximum advantage of the carbon market. This study aims to describe the condition and potential of the forestry sector carbon market, as well as estimate the carbon trading value of the forestry sector for 34 provinces in Indonesia in 2022. The method used is K-Medoids and calculating the carbon trading value. The study results show that areas on Papua Island and Kalimantan Island are the main potential contributors to carbon trading in Indonesia. These two islands have large areas of primary forest that are still maintained. This shows that the forest area in Papua Province is a strategic asset for Indonesia in its efforts to mitigate climate change through carbon trading.

This study aims to analyze the effect of cognitive bias on the Financial Decision Making of MSME actors in Bandung City. The research method used is descriptive verification with quantitative approach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 385 MSME actors in Bandung City. The variables being studied for independent variables are overconfidence bias, confirmation bias, herding bias, anchoring bias, hindsight bias, the illusion of control bias, loss aversion bias, endowment bias, regret aversion bias, and status quo bias, while for the dependent variable is Financial Decision Making. Regression results show that overconfidence bias and loss aversion bias positively affect financial decision-making, while the illusion of control bias has a negative effect.

Abstract

East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province is a strategic area bordering Timor-Leste, with significant potential in agriculture and trade. However, NTT faces food insecurity issues, reflected in high poverty rates and malnutrition prevalence, making it the province with the highest malnutrition rate in Indonesia. This study uses Multiple Linear Regression Method to analyze the impact of climate change, accessibility, education, agricultural diversification programs, and community participation on food security. A sample of 150 farmers from Kupang, South Central Timor, North Central Timor, Belu, and Malaka districts was randomly selected. The results show that these five variables significantly affect food security in NTT, both partially and simultaneously. Strategic recommendations include adopting climate change adaptation programs, improving accessibility, education, agricultural diversification, and strengthening community participation in decision-making processes.
