Abstract

This study aims to find out the analysis of Income Inequality in the community in Java province in 2019-2023. The analysis unit covers six provinces using secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency of Indonesia. The Dependent Variable in this study is the Gini Ratio and, the Independent Variables are Poverty, Labor Force Participation Rate and Unemployment. The analysis tool used is the Data Panel Regression with the Fixed Effect method. The results of the study show that 1) poverty has a positive and significant effect on income inequality, 2) the labor force participation rate has a positive and significant effect on income inequality and 3) unemployment has a negative and significant effect on income inequality (gini ratio). Therefore, provincial governments on the island of Java should expand access and improve skills that are in line with the needs of the labor market. Further research is expected to use a more comprehensive approach by adding more in-depth variables, in order to better understand the dynamics of income inequality.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of population, exchange rates, and investment on international trade in countries that are members of RCEP. With the approach of dynamic panel data analysis method with 15 countries namely ASEAN, Japan, South Korea, Australia, China, and New Zealand. in 2012-2022, which sourced data from the World Development Indicator (WDI) World Bank with the generalized moment method (GMM). The results showed that the FD-GMM assumption did not meet 3 estimates (arellano-bond test, sargan test, and model specification test) then continued with the SYS-GMM assumption which successfully met 3 estimates, then the regression results of the SYS-GMM model will be used in the discussion. The results of the analysis show that an increase in population will increase trade by 0.149068%. Likewise, an increase in the exchange rate will also increase trade by 0.0795209%. And if there is an increase in investment, it will increase trade by 0.0111297%. This shows that population, exchange rates, and investment have a positive and significant effect on international trade. From the results of this study, it is hoped that the government can provide appropriate policies so that the policies implemented can be realized and the government can also increase population and labor, policies to increase economic competitiveness, and policies to increase economic stability, to increase trade.
