Abstract

The Ministry of Trade revealed that there are 41 wet markets in 12 provinces in Indonesia suffering from damage, 50 percent of which are due to incomplete and inadequate market facilities. From a survey of 3,956 markets, 95 percent of them have a physical building over 25 years. In Banyumas regency there are two wet markets that have experienced the revitalization program, namely those in Cilongok and Sokaraja. However, this research focused on Cilongok market. This research aims to compare consumer assessment toward the level of cleanliness, safety, orderliness, and lighting, level of favorability and frequency of consumer visit to Cilongokwetmarket. This study used a comparative descriptive method to compare consumers’ assessment. The before-after approach is used to assess the effectiveness of the treatment, characterized by an average difference before and after treatment. This research surveyed 100 respondents selected by accidental sampling. Data were collected by questionnaire-based exit interview. Data of the assessment pre-revitalization are obtained by recall method. Data were then analyzed using paired sample t-test. The results show that consumer assessment toward the level of cleanliness, safety, orderliness, and lighting of the Cilongokwet market after revitalization is higher than that before revitalization. Moreover, their level of favorability and frequency of visiting the market are higher, too. The results imply that revitalization of wet markets has been perceived positively by consumers, which has affected their frequency of shopping, thereby improving the competitiveness of the wet market against the modern market.

Abstract

The study purpose is to analyze the effect of gender inequality in education, health, and labor force participation on income inequality in Indonesia.  Data from 33 provinces in Indonesia during 2011-2018 were analyzed with panel data regression. The results show that gender inequality in education and labor force participation has a negative and significant effect on income inequality. However,  gender inequality in life expectancy does not affect income inequality. The implications are the government should provide free education in poor regions such as by providing a larger allocation of scholarship funds  and create employment programs to reduce education as well as income inequality, government. In this case,the government can expand community empowerment programs accompanied by intensive and sustainable assistance  and private sector should open the widest possible job opportunities without gender discrimination. This research contributes to development economics, particularly regarding the problem of gender inequality and income inequality  where it is found that income inequality is influenced by the occurrence of gender inequality both in terms of education and work participation. Previous studies have examined the relationship between gender inequality and economic growth, while this study analyzes the relationship between gender inequality and income inequality based on provincial data in Indonesia. Apart from gender inequality, this study also analyzes two control variables: government capital expenditure and income per capita.
