Abstract

The development of tourism villages is a crucial strategy for enhancing the economic well-being of rural communities, although limited capital often acts as a barrier. This study examines crowdfunding-based investment innovations as an alternative to traditional fundraising methods for tourism villages, using case study in Ketapanrame Village. The study focuses on tourism infrastructure financing, community empowerment, and business diversification rooted in local wisdom. Results show increased citizen participation, job creation, and accelerated inclusive economic growth in the village. Community funding through crowdfunding has proven effective with transparent mechanisms, community-based dividend distribution, and clear boundaries. In addition to strengthening sustainability, this model promotes direct community involvement in development. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for policymakers and investors to design more innovative, educational, and community-responsive tourism village funding schemes.

Abstract

Coconut products, especially coconut water, have the potential to be carried out on a household or MSME scale. The purpose of this study was to identify processed products from coconut water that have the potential to be developed on an MSME scale in Indonesia. The study was conducted in 2 stages. The first stage is the identification of processed products from coconut water. The second stage is the selection of potential products. The selection of potential products was done by applying the Bayes method through interviews with 9 experts. The selection criteria were market potential, business capital, technology, human resources and and availability of raw materials. The study results showed that the products in the top 3 rankings were nata de coco, coconut vinegar, and packaged coconut water. The study results are expected to be useful for related stakeholders such as MSMEs, local governments, and universities to develop downstream coconut water products.

Abstract

This study estimates the heterogeneity of agglomeration externalities across employees' education levels in Indonesia. This study uses the 2020-2024 microdata and the Instrumental Variable (IV) Heckman model with the historical population density and the number of universities as IVs. The result indicates that social returns to education from the local high-skill labor market, which is a part of agglomeration externalities, are positively significant and higher for high- and medium-skilled employees than for low-skilled employees. This finding demonstrates the efficacy of public education investments, especially Indonesian government policy that can enhance the quantity and quality of university graduates, thereby promoting the transfer of knowledge to all employees and eventually reducing wage inequality between regions.

Abstract

This study examines the effects of the flypaper effect, fiscal stress, and tax effort on the financial capacity of South Sulawesi Province over the period 2002 to 2024 using the VECM method. In the short term, none of the identified factors exerts a significant influence on fiscal capacity. However, in the long term, the flypaper effect and fiscal stress are found to negatively affect financial capacity, whereas tax effort is found to have a positive effect. The flypaper effect indicates dependence on central transfers, reducing fiscal efficiency. Fiscal stress arises from imbalances that weaken capacity, while tax effort enhances fiscal autonomy by maximizing local revenue. These findings emphasize the importance of reducing fiscal dependence, improving spending efficiency, and promoting good governance to strengthen financial sustainability. The quality of institutions and governance also plays a crucial role in determining the success of fiscal policy at the regional level

Abstract

This study aims to analyze Semarang City's readiness to become a Smart City for sustainable development. This research employs qualitative analysis and utilizes secondary data from the mass media. The data were processed using Data Coding technique, Crosstab Queries, and Word Cloud Analysis. The result indicates that Semarang City has the potential for smart city development. It is supported by the implementation of flagship programs in Semarang City to achieve Smart City status, particularly in improving public services, creating a green environment, and fostering sustainable economic growth. Semarang City faces challenges such as inadequate supporting infrastructure for smart cities, disparities in technological know-how across society, and significant environmental challenges. Regarding implications, this study recommends that the municipal government undertake comprehensive development and training for the human resources involved in the Smart City initiative, in addition to providing technological outreach to the community to accelerate the Smart City initiative.

Abstract

: This study investigates the impact of infrastructure quality, encompassing roads, clean water distribution, and electricity consumption, on regional economic growth in Central Java from 2018 to 2024. A Bayesian Panel Data Regression model with a hierarchical structure was estimated using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method, assisted by Python programming, to address spatial heterogeneity, lag effects, and parameter uncertainty. Model validation employed Posterior Predictive Checks (PPC), Bayesian R², R-hat statistics, and Effective Sample Size (ESS). The findings reveal that past GRDP significantly influences current regional economic growth, while the direct effects of infrastructure variables are statistically insignificant. This outcome highlights that infrastructure quality is more important than quantity in promoting development. The study advances empirical methodologies by integrating full posterior inference with predictive validation, representing a state-of-the-art approach in regional economic analysis. The results provide strong evidence in support of formulating infrastructure policies that focus on long-term, sustainable Growth.

Abstract

This study aims to identify key industries in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) in 2023, examine the linkages between these industries, and analyze the impact of investment shocks in the electricity sectors. Using the updated 2023 input-output tables, the analysis includes interrelationships, multiplier effects, and impact simulations. The study reveals that investment in the electricity sector is vital for boosting production and distribution capacity in NTT. Eight important NTT industries demonstrated significant forward and backward links in 2023. It is anticipated that investments made in the electrical sector will increase total economic production. This investment benefits not just the electrical industry directly but also other industries, especially wholesale and retail trade. In the future, an exploration of the possibilities of renewable energy should be conducted.
