To identify the influence of the variables used in this study used the VAR (Vector Autoregression) method. The results of this study show that equation regression shows that FDI (-1) has a negative influence on economic growth and FDI (-2) has a positive effect on economic growth, INF (-1) and INF (-2) have positive effects on economic growth , Variable NX (-1) has a positive effect on economic growth but NX (-2) has a negative effect on economic growth, and GE variable (-1) has a positive effect on economic growth while GE (-2) has a negative effect on growth Economy.

The analysis results show that changes in macroeconomic conditions such as exchange rate, government expenditure and gross domestic product in Indonesia have a significant effect on foreign direct investment (FDI) Indonesia, while Inflation has a negative effect on foreign direct investment FDI and the monetary crisis has a negative effect on the development of FDI in Indonesia. So that the severe financial crisis in the American and European regions today, the impact on foreign direct investment (FDI) Indonesia is still within the limits of tolerance. Therefore, although there are still problems in the investment climate in Indonesia, the outlook for investment in Indonesia over the next period is still good, although perhaps with the growth of investment slows down.

This research is also expected to assist the government in formulating policies, among others, (1) the alleviation of poverty; (2) to determine the characteristics of the waste; (3) to determine the value of the sale of inorganic waste; (4) the value of marketing margin recycling efforts. For that determined the variables expected to affect the economy of scavengers that radius trash pickup, work experience, gender and the mode of transport used scavengers. Primary data were collected from households, markets, scavengers, agents of small and large agents inorganic waste recycling business. Descriptive analysis methods include behavioral analysis, analysis of the characteristics of household rubbish, garbage value analysis of inorganic and margin analysis. Linear Regression analysis method (Ordinary Least Square) to see the effect of these variables on the path towards economic scavengers Household and Final Disposal. The results of this study indicate that the variable radius waste pick-up and work experience scavengers positive effect on the economic value of the landfill scavengers either on line or lines of Household. Trash aqua glass, waste paper HVS, copper and garbage bins clear glass bottle is a kind of inorganic waste which has a high sales value per kilogram. Household garbage Marketing paths more effectively and profitably than the path landfill. Household scavenger pathway is more prosperous than landfill scavengers path. Public awareness is still low in maintaining the environment. Development activities in the Garbage Bank program has prospects for poverty reduction.
