This study aims to analyze whether economic growth in Indonesia is driven by physical or human capital using panel data analysis consisting of all provinces over the last nine years. The estimation results show that the Indonesian economy is more likely to be driven by physical than human capital. The formation of human capital that has a significant positive effect on economic growth is health. However, the education variable represented by the mean years schooling has no significant effect on economic growth when including the control variable in the research model. To improve the quality of education, the state requires the government to provide substantial educational spending. However, the budget has not been used optimally so that the expected achievements of graduates are not achieved. In addition, education spending has not met the criteria for quality spending. In contrast to education spending, an increase in health spending will increase economic growth by improving the quality of health and life expectancy. A healthier society will have a high level of productivity that impacts the regional and national economy.

Empirical analysis on the links between geography and energy access in archipelago setting is still limited. In particular, the territorial identification of energy poverty in Indonesia is still missing. Our study maps geographical location and estimates factors that determines the probability of being energy poor household in relation to electricity. We used the OLS (Ordinary Least Square) estimation and utilized the socioeconomic survey (Susenas) combined with data on terrain elevation, presence of geographic features such as mountainside, topography characteristics, ocean and forest obtained from the village census (PODES). The results show that energy poverty in Eastern part of Indonesia is larger than in the Western. In Eastern Indonesia, we estimate that 13.5% of the total households are energy poor compared to the Western which only 7.21%. Households located in the forest area was the dominant factor to influence prevalence of energy poverty among geographic constraints, with magnitude of influence at 22-23 percentage point to non-forest residents. Secondly, the presence of steep-sloped terrain is the next meaningful geographical constraint with contribution effect to energy poverty prevalence at around 18 percentage point. The result highlighted priority of locations in which resource and policy to reduce energy deprivation need to be allocated.

Agriculture takes an important role for economy by more than 14% of economic contribution. Nevertheless, it has indirective effects, where it has commonly a negative impact, but somehow in the long term, offers a better environmental service. This study, therefore, aimed to evaluate both impact by estimating the Indonesia food barn to estimate how far the impact to environment through the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). In order to improve the environmental quality in the long term, the sustainable practices through ecolabelling product have to be conducted. Thus, the evaluation of consumers’ WTP for ecolabelling product has been observed through 300 respondents depicting their preferences. Following by AHP analysis to construct the priority of strategies to develop the sustainable agriculture. Based on the results, EKC model showed it initially leads to environmental damage, but at a certain level, people begin to increase environmental awareness by a decrease of methane (CH4) about 0.12%. It is proved by their WTP where 82.6% respondents were willing to pay for ecolabelling product. Finally, to support sustainable agriculture, reforming the market access is a top priority (0.312 points) which aimed to progressively encourage the farmers’ supply. Otherwise, the pricing strategy becomes the consumers’ main perspective to buy (0.264 points).

Related to the previous studies, there are still questions about what sectors are produced from several economic based approaches each year. This study aims to determine the “very potential” business fields to be developed. This research was led purposively in Sukamara Regency, Kalimantan Tengah Province thinking about that macroeconomic exhibition information actually should be additionally improved. Auxiliary information got by documentation at the Central Statistics Agency, specifically GRDP at 2010 Constant Market Prices for the 2015-2020 period. Arrangement of business fields is done utilizing a weighting come closer from the estimation of Location Quotient, Growth Ratio Model, Sectoral Contribution Percentage and Growth Rate, Shift Share Analysis, and Overlay. The consequences of the review show the pattern of the improvement of the quantity of driving areas that are getting less and less and not in any manner observe any area that is completely equipped for satisfying the normal financial based methodology presumptions consistently. Moreover, the weighting system carried out proposes a new contribution in determining the leading sectors with a clearer classification. Therefore, the results of this study at the same time provide recommendations for the need for an analysis of the leading sector every year as consideration for regional planning.

External debt is one of the fiscal policies that are still widely used by developing countries as an instrument of development capital. Limited capital in development in developing countries is one of the obstacles to the accelerated development of a country, one of which is in South Asian countries. This study aims to determine the effects of external debt, exports, foreign direct investment (FDI), and exchange rates on economic growth in South Asian countries using panel data in eight countries with a 2005–2019 series. data in the form of panel data from several data sources, including the World Bank, UnctadSTAT, and the Asian Development Bank. The panel data regression method is used to see the effect of external debt and other macroeconomic variables on economic growth as proxied by GDP growth for South Asian countries. The results of the analysis found that external debt, exports, and FDI had a significant positive effect on economic growth in South Asian countries. However, the exchange rate has a significant negative effect on economic growth in South Asian countries. These results imply that external debt is still needed as a policy instrument in development and economic growth in South Asia, with debt management for the allocation of productive activities. As indicated by increasing welfare and national economic growth, external debt management can accelerate development.

The problem of food security is availability, distribution and consumption. The problem of availability is limited and decreasing production capacity: the distribution’s problem are insfrastructure, institution, safety link of distribution’s and the variation production capacity between region dan season. The problem of consumption is most of energy consumption are grain and rice biased. The policy of food security not only to create the food sufficiency with development economic with rural and agriculture are the basis, but also the sufficiency of food for poor society. In order to create food reserve of society, lumbung desa is important to be improved.Masalah ketahanan pangan meliputi ketersediaan bahan pangan, distribusi dan konsumsi. Masalah ketersediaan bahan pangan dapat menurunkan kapasitas produksi : masalah distribusi ini meliputi infrastruktur, institusi, jaringan distribusi dan kapasitas produksi antara wilayah dan musim. Masalah konsumsi yang paling krusial adalah konsumsi untuk gandum dan beras. Kebijakan ketahanan pangan tidak hanya untuk menciptakan kecukupan pangan dalam hal pembangunan ekonomi, tetapi juga kecukupan pangan bagi masyarakat miskin. Dalam rangka menciptakan cadangan pangan masyarakat, Lumbung Desa penting untuk ditingkatkan.
