Abstract

Electricity is a development priority for low and middle income countries, including Indonesia, especially in the households living in suburban and rural areas. By 2020, Indonesia's electrification ratio has reached 96.71%. However, there were 433 villages that did not have electricity, most of which were located in eastern Indonesia (Papua, West Papua, East Nusa Tenggara, and Maluku). Investment in the electricity sector will drive regional economic growth. This research attempts to figure out the impact of investment in electricity on economy. This study used Indonesian inter-regional Input-Output data. The method used in this study was the Interregional Input-Output (IRIO) model. The analysis shows that electricity impacted not only the territory being built but also other regions in Indonesia. Electricity industry investment in Indonesia have been able to provide a multiplier effect on the economy as many as 3.11. Java region gets the greatest benefit from electricity development in Indonesia. This was rationally acceptable due to the fact that most of the industry was located in this region. This causes a development gap between Java and outside Java. It is necessary to accelerate reallocate several national strategic industries on various islands in Indonesia based on the advantages of each region and to strive for areas that are still "dark" to have electricity.JEL Classification E22; L94; R15

Abstract

The level of service quality delivered to the customers on a tourism business might be represented by a satisfaction index. A higher index means that the service is more satisfying and eventually might attract more customers. However, whether the increasing number of customers always reflect a better service quality? This study was aimed to analyze the level of satisfaction and its correlation to the number of visitors to Cibodas Botanic Gardens. The satisfaction index was analyzed based on nine criteria, complying with the regulation of the Minister of State Apparatus Utilization and Bureaucratic Reform, Republic of Indonesia. The analysis started by distributing the questionnaires, which resulted in 1,321 respondents from 2017 to 2019. The number of visitors was obtained by inventoried the number of the sold tickets monthly. Pearson test (r) was used to examine the correlation between the satisfaction index and the number of visitors, and a t-test to evaluate the level of significance (α = 0.05). The findings showed that the index from 2017 to 2019 was relatively stable: 80.8, 80.15, and 80.93 (scale of 25 to 100), respectively. On the other side, the number of visitors tends to rise each year by 24% to 26% instead. The test showed that the correlation is positive but weak (r = 0.236) with no significance. These results provide an overview description and for operators' consideration to manage the site in their policies. The efforts not only focus on attracting more visitors but also on enhancing the quality of the services.JEL Classification: Z30; Z32; Z38

Abstract

A comparison between Chi-squared Automatic Interaction Detector (CHAID) and logistic regression analysis was performed for classification problems on bank direct marketing data. CHAID Performance Comparison and comparison with Logistic Regression (LR) performance were also conducted. Priority performance with two statistical measures was evaluated: classification accuracy and sensitivity in the presence of data containing categorical imbalances. Random over sampling (ROS) was then applied to deal with class balance problems to get better performance of CHAID analysis. Segmentation analysis was also performed using the CHAID approach to improve the performance of the analysis results. CHAID outperforms LR because of its advantages that it can be used to perform segmentation modeling. Direct marketers should pay attention to traits are Duration, Month, Contact, and Housing. To get a higher subscription, the bank must extend the call duration. Based on these results, the banking industry needs to prepare regulations related to human resources, infrastructure, costs, and government support to achieve higher subscriptions.JEL Classification  A10; C10; G21

Abstract

This study assesses the agricultural commercialization levels, determinants, and challenges confronting smallholder cassava farmers in Oyo State, Nigeria. This study was conducted in Oyo State, Nigeria using cross-sectional data from 211 smallholder cassava farmers and employing multi-stage sampling procedures. Descriptive statistics, Crop Commercialization Index (CCI), and Ordered Logit Model (OLM) were used to analyze the data collected. The results revealed that 83.9% of the cassava farmers participated in the commercialization of their cassava roots while the remaining farmers were non-participants. The greatest challenge faced by the cassava farmers in the study area was the incessant attacks by the Fulani herdsmen (destroying growing cassava on the farm) while other challenges included cassava cyclical gluts and poor access road. Moreover, OLM revealed that age, farm size, cassava marketing experience and distance to market had significant influence on commercialization levels of cassava farmers. However, in order to enhance increased commercialization levels of cassava farmers and peaceful coexistence in the study area, policies and intervention programmes that will facilitate rural infrastructure development and proffer lasting solution to the farmers-herders crisis should be given upmost priority.JEL Classification D13; M31; Q19

Abstract

Poverty is a condition associated with the inability to meet basic needs such as food, clothing, shelter, education, and health. Although Indonesia is currently experiencing a decline in poverty trend, data show that this extreme state of lack is consent in rural areas, such as Trenggalek Regency. Approximately 99.7% of this region is rural areas, with 10.98% poor populations. Therefore, this study aims to identify rural poverty's typology and distribution pattern in Trenggalek Regency using the spatial approach, which identifies the impact of distance and neighborhood of area towards villages’ poverty. The results showed a positive spatial autocorrelation of 0.29232, which indicates the spatial relationship between the poverty in every village in Trenggalek Regency is clustered and divided into four categories. Approximately 25, 28, 5, and 9 villages were in the high-high, low-low, low-high, and low-low categories. Every cluster has similar characteristics, thereby, the villages are influenced by each other. The results further showed that villages with high poverty rates have low accessibility to various facilities and infrastructure. An important factor that makes it possible for a rural area to escape poverty even though the surrounding is experiencing it at a higher rate is activating the micro, small and medium enterprises.JEL Classification: I32, R23, R51

Abstract

Indonesia has long struggled with a high rate of unemployment. Export, one of the aggregate demand’s components, typically affects the unemployment rate as argued by Keynes. Therefore, this study attempts to evaluate the asymmetric response of unemployment rate to export shock in Indonesia. Employing a Local Projection method, the analysis incorporates three important features: the asymmetric effects of export shock (positive or negative), business cycle (boom or slump), and educational attainment of workers (highly-educated or less-educated). Dataset consisted of province-level annual panel data of 18 provinces in Indonesia where the main ports for export activity are located, spanning from the years of 1990 to 2019. This study finds significant differences in the unemployment rate dynamics between less-educated and highly-educated workers. A positive export shock during the boom reduced the unemployment rate for less-educated workers, and the effect is more persistent. In contrast, highly-educated unemployment rate decreased when a positive export shock occurs during the slump period, and the effect was rather in the short run. These results suggest some policy implications such as strengthening the domestic market, relaxing export regulation on labor-intensive industries, and diversifying export products to enlarge job opportunities for highly-educated workers with varied qualifications.JEL Classification E24; I25; O24

Abstract

During the process of international economic integration, the labor issue plays a vital, urgent, and long-term role in the sustainable development of the economy. The impact of employment on a country's investment decisions is significant. The material underpinning of a nation's socio-economic growth is its transport infrastructure. The impact of infrastructure upgrades on employment in Vietnam's economic sectors is the focus of this article. Furthermore, the study investigates whether the Vietnamese government's annual investment in infrastructure development benefits employees as projected (using data from the Vietnam General Statistics Office (VNGSO) for 19 economic sectors from 2005 to 2019). The results of the System Generalized Method of Moments (System-GMM) show that improving the quality of transport infrastructure can significantly increase employment rates in different sectors. The data show that transport infrastructure plays a key role in ensuring smooth connectivity of the entire national, regional and local economies. It reduces transport costs and facilitates the mobility of workers.JEL Classification J8; L91; O18

Abstract

The West-East corridor is one of the main gateways to enter West Sumatra Province. The West-East corridor, which passes through 65 districts, has a variety of potentials and problems. This means, the growth rate of each district will be different. The growth rate and strength of the relationship among regions can be observed through the gravity model's spatial interactions. The gravity model can calculate the relative strength of the relationship between regions. To see the strength of the relationship among regions in the West-East corridor, strategic economic areas were taken into considerations based on their distance and several observational variables, which were the total population variable, infrastructure completeness, level of security, and investment value. Observation analysis units consisted of sixty-five sub-districts along the West-East corridor. Mass 1 (M1) was the central government, West Padang district, and mass 2 (M2) was the other 64 sub-districts. The analysis results show that the total population, infrastructure completeness, level of security, and investment value are not only influenced by their closeness to the government/city center. The infrastructure completeness factor can influence the total population in a region. Likewise, the investment value can be influenced by the infrastructure completeness and the level of security in a region.JEL Classification: O10; R12; R19

Abstract

The chrysanthemum commodity has shown a marked increase in the demand for decorations, ornaments and ceremonies service business in urban areas. This has raised attention to the feasibility and implications of sustainable production at the farm level. This study aims to measure the economic feasibility and sustainability of the chrysanthemum farm business. The study was carried out by surveying 24 chrysanthemum farmers in the village of Tutur, Tutur District, Pasuruan Regency. The analysis method used farming feasibility and multidimensional scaling (MDS) approach of Rapfish. The results of the study found the criteria for chrysanthemum cultivation of R/C ratio and ROI of 2.58 and 1.58, with profit equivalent to 126.66 million rupiahs per month per hectare. The study also found that the sustainability index in the dimensions of the social, economic, institutional, and environment was 62.74, 57.76, 57.48 and 51.66; all of which are categorized as fairly sustainable. In those dimensions, it was found that the most important attributes influencing sustainability were land conversion, farmers' network in chrysanthemum cultivation, access to business capital and changes in market trends. Further research suggests strengthening farmer group institutions, implementing innovation and developing sustainable tourism areas.JEL Classification  F18; Q13; Q18

Abstract

Bangelan is one of the villages which proclaim as a tourism village in Malang Regency. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted tourist visits, causing considerable losses to tourism economic activityr. This study aims to determine the structure of community adaptation in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is associated with social capital and collective actions to restore socioeconomic conditions. Assessment of social capital used three variables: trust, social norms, and social networks, each of which identifies its relationship with collective action. This study used descriptive analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and the data were obtained from the questionnaire. The study results explain that the norm variable in social capital wasthe most influential for the community to make decisions in taking collective action to restore the socioeconomic conditions. The norms were based on compliance with applicable norms and social sanctions against those who violate. Social norms affected almost every aspect of people's lives and became development pillars. The success of development efforts depended on conforming to or contradicting the development with pre-existing norms. In addition, the role of the community as hosts was the most important element in tourism development where they lived. Furthermore, norms could prevent outsiders from taking the opportunities that often dominate the development of local tourism destinations.JEL Classification  I32; R23; R51
