Abstract

Bulungan Regency, as the capital of North Kalimantan Province, can become a new growth center in the province. This study aims to identify the basic economic sectors and potential drivers of economic growth in Bulungan Regency. This study uses data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Bulungan Regency and North Kalimantan Province for 2023-2025. The data analysis technique used was the Location Quotient (LQ) to identify basic sectors and the Klassen Typology to identify potential sectors in Bulungan Regency. The data analysis shows that the basic sectors in Bulungan Regency are agriculture, forestry, and fisheries; industrial management, construction; water supply; waste management, waste and recycling; information and communication; real estate; government administration; defense; and mandatory social security; education; and other services. The data analysis also indicates that potential sectors in Bulungan Regency are construction and financial and insurance services. The Bulungan Regency government can provide significant support to these potential sectors by providing easier financial access. Investors have the opportunity to invest in several potential sectors. Investors can also invest in sectors that have developed and grown rapidly in Bulungan Regency. The contribution of this research lies in providing a comprehensive understanding of the basic and potential sectors that can drive economic growth in Bulungan Regency.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of complete childhood immunization on child health and growth outcomes in Indonesia, measured by morbidity history and Body Mass Index (BMI). This research is important because complete immunization coverage in Indonesia remains uneven, while child health is a strategic component in improving human capital quality and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study uses secondary data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) and applies a quantitative approach. The analysis employs a Probit model to estimate the relationship between complete immunization and child health outcomes. To address the potential endogeneity of immunization decisions, an Instrumental Variable Probit (IV Probit) model is also applied. The instrumental variables used are the distance to the nearest health facility and the cost of accessing vaccination services. The estimation results show that children who receive complete immunization have a 50.8% lower probability of experiencing morbidity requiring rest compared to children who do not receive complete immunization. In addition, complete immunization reduces the probability of children having abnormal BMI status (underweight or overweight) by 50.9%. These findings indicate that complete immunization significantly improves child health and nutritional status in Indonesia. The novelty of this study lies in the use of a causal inference approach through the IV Probit model to address endogeneity bias in immunization decisions, as well as in measuring the impact of immunization not only on morbidity but also on child growth indicators through BMI.

Abstract

The eradication of poverty is a critical priority for both central and local governments. Human development plays a vital role in lifting communities out of poverty. This study examines how the quality of human development affects poverty across 24 districts/cities of South Sulawesi over 2012–2022, using the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). Life expectancy, as a proxy for health quality, has no significant effect on poverty reduction, whereas primary and secondary school enrolment rates show a significant negative effect. Government spending on education and health also reduces poverty significantly, while the open unemployment rate and the COVID-19 dummy are associated with higher poverty. Per capita expenditure and access to clean water show no significant effect. The study contributes district-level evidence on poverty, using a dynamic panel approach that accounts for the persistence of poverty over time and corrects for endogeneity. Its originality lies in addressing the gap between the province's rising human development index and a poverty level that has not declined alongside it, which gives local government a more targeted basis for policy.
