This study aims to analyze the impact of digitalization on the productivity of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Southeast Asia, with a focus on three countries: Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews with MSME owners and managers, questionnaires distributed to employees, and direct observation at MSME locations. The study's results show that digitalization, through the use of e-commerce platforms, digital payment systems, and technology based inventory management, significantly contributes to improving operational efficiency and market access for MSMEs. However, the main challenges faced are low digital literacy and limited infrastructure, particularly in rural areas, which hinder MSMEs' ability to leverage digital technology fully. In countries with better digital infrastructure, such as Thailand, the positive impact of digitalization is more pronounced. This research suggests the need to enhance digital literacy training and improve infrastructure to support the adoption of technology by MSMEs. These findings offer valuable insights for developing MSME policies in Southeast Asia that can enhance competitiveness in the global market.

This study aims to analyze the impact of energy subsidy policies on household consumption patterns in Indonesia. Energy subsidies, which are provided to ease the economic burden on households, have a significant influence on energy consumption, especially in increasing household energy use. This study employs a qualitative method, incorporating in-depth interviews, questionnaires, and observations of households that receive energy subsidies. The results show that households that receive subsidies tend to consume more energy, albeit at a more affordable cost. The untargeted distribution of subsidies results in energy waste, as some wealthy households continue to receive subsidies. Although subsidies provide social benefits, their impact on energy consumption behavior shows the need for educational programs on energy efficiency and improved subsidy distribution mechanisms. The study also found that energy subsidy policies should be balanced with more sustainable policies, such as the use of renewable energy and incentives for energy efficiency. The practical implication of this study is the importance of evaluating energy subsidy policies to be more targeted and supported by educational programs that can increase public awareness of efficient energy use.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of microeconomic empowerment programs using an econometric matching approach, with a focus on increasing participants' income and welfare. Microeconomic empowerment programs in Indonesia have become the primary strategy for overcoming poverty and enhancing the quality of life for the community, particularly in the microbusiness sector. This study employed a qualitative research design, incorporating interviews, questionnaires, and observations at two research locations in Bogor Regency and Bantul Regency. The study's results indicate that this program has a positive impact on participants with more established businesses, resulting in an average income increase of approximately 30%. However, participants who are just starting a business experience difficulties in making optimal use of training and capital assistance. The evaluation of this program also revealed that the training materials need to be adjusted to the type of business run by the participants, as well as the need for post-program support to ensure business sustainability. The use of econometric matching is effective in reducing selectivity bias and providing more accurate estimates of program impact. This research offers recommendations for program adjustments that are more closely aligned with the needs of participants, as well as the importance of post program mentoring in strengthening the longterm impact.

This study aims to analyze the impact of climate change on the Indonesian agricultural sector using econometric methods. Given the importance of the agricultural sector to the Indonesian economy, climate change, which affects rainfall and temperature patterns, has a significant impact on agricultural yields. The study was conducted in two provinces, West Java and South Sulawesi, each of which has different agricultural characteristics. The data used in this study included the results of in-depth interviews with farmers and policymakers, questionnaires distributed to farmers, and direct observations of agricultural practices in the field. The results show that most farmers feel the effects of climate change, especially in the uncertainty of seasons and declining crop yields. Although the government has implemented several adaptation policies, gaps still exist in their implementation. Farmers believe that existing policies are insufficient to help them cope with climate change. Therefore, this study recommends increasing farmers' access to climate adaptation technologies and more inclusive policies by involving farmers in the policy planning process that is more responsive to their needs.

This study aims to analyze the development inequality between regions in Indonesia using a qualitative approach and econometric spatial modeling. Development inequality between the western and eastern regions of Indonesia, particularly in Java, Sumatra, and Papua, remains a significant issue that hinders equitable development. Based on interviews with local government officials, economic institutions, and communities, as well as data analysis from questionnaires and field observations, it was found that limited infrastructure, centralized development policies, and dependence on the natural resources sector are the primary factors contributing to inequality. Additionally, uneven investment allocation exacerbates regional inequality. The study also applied econometric spatial modeling to identify patterns of inequality and the impact of inter-regional interactions, suggesting that inequality in one region can affect inequality in another. These findings suggest that development policies should be more decentralized and tailored to local needs to achieve more effective and equitable development. The results of this study provide policymakers with recommendations for designing a more inclusive and equitable development strategy throughout Indonesia.
