<![CDATA[This paper examines the impact of fiscal decentralization on regional income inequality in Indonesia. This study employs dynamic panel data analysis–the two-step system generalized method of moments (GMM) on 2008-2017 regional level datasets. This study found that regional income inequality indeed increases during the implementation of fiscal decentralization and appears to be exceptionally high for rich provinces. Essentially, this study suggest that fiscal decentralization appears to increase regional income inequality in Indonesia. The results might be due to low regional fiscal capacity in Indonesia, which induces high dependency of local government that further restraints local competition in public goods provision. Keywords: fiscal decentralization, regional income inequality, generalized method of moments (GMM).]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to estimate the association between government expenditure and human development index (HDI) in Indonesia. Due to inequal HDI attainment, this study focuses on 12 provinces which categorized as provinces with low level of HDI in Indonesia. This study employs fixed effect model (FEM) panel data analysis on provincial level datasets from 2010 to 2018. This study found that the increase of government expenditure on education significantly increases HDI, while government expenditure on health has no significant association with HDI. Major finding of the study highlights the role of gross regional domestic product (GRDP) per capita in increasing HDI on 12 provinces in Indonesia.

<![CDATA[Tourism shows a significant contribution to foreign exchange and regional income in Indonesia. Defined as a priority and leading sector in the RPJMD, tourism development in the Regencies and the Province of Gorontalo must measure the results, benefits and impacts for all stakeholders. Contribution to regional income (PAD) and the composition of internal and external factors in each of the leading destinations is needed for the purpose of determining the strategy and policy of sustainable tourism development. The study concluded that tourism sector was relatively small in its contribution to each PAD total by Regencies in Gorontalo Province. The low of PADsp is relevant to the low occupancy rate (TPK) of the hotel and the length of stay (LoS). The lack of retribution income from recreation and sports spot is relevant to the lack of activities to support the attractiveness such as art and cultural attractions and local products that can be souvenirs for tourists. Infrastructure facilities at leading tourism objects are relatively incomplete or do not meet tourism standards. The low of PAD, TPK & LoS can also explain that the increase in tourists to Gorontalo is only a transit to the other tourist objects outside of Gorontalo Province.]]>
