Abstract

The increasing production of the agricultural sector in Bulukumba Regency makes the agricultural sector a dominant contribution in the formation of the economic structure, and has a significant influence on the absorption of labor. Agriculture as a labor-intensive sector in absorbing labor does not require high educational qualifications so that the population's dependence on this sector remains high. In addition to the orientation of increasing agricultural production for food security, it also provides broad access to employment opportunities. Meanwhile, the industrial sector as the leading sector is expected to continue to grow and strengthen the agricultural sector. The industrial sector in Bulukumba Regency has a significant influence on employment. Industrial growth and diversification is very important to be developed to maximize its potential and can absorb a more massive workforce in the next period. Keywords: Agriculture, Industry, Labor Absorption.

Abstract

This study describes the effect of exchange rates on the trade balance, inflation, foreign debt, unemployment and economic growth.  Data sourced from BPS and Indonesian Bank. This study uses multiple linear regression analysis. The results of statistical tests show the direct effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable, namely, the exchange rate variable has a negative effect on the trade balance, other than inflation and economic growth in Indonesia.  On the other hand, the effect of the exchange rate on foreign debt has a positive and significant effect. Furthermore, the indirect effect is shown by the effect of exchange rates on the economic growth variable through the trade balance variable which shows the negative effect, then the exchange rate also has a negative effect on economic growth through the inflation rate, and finally the exchange rate has a negative effect on economic growth through foreign debt.  Thus, a serious effort is needed to maintain the stability of the rupiah exchange rate considering its considerable impact on finding that imported raw materials are one of the factors that influence exchange rate fluctuations to become uncontrollable. In addition, the balance of payments deficit is controlled through foreign insurance, not the best solution in maintaining exchange rate stability.Keywords: Exchange Rate, Trade Balance, Inflation, External Debt, Economic Growth

Abstract

The budget allocation for poverty alleviation is getting bigger from time to time. However, the poverty rate did not change significantly. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of poverty programs that have been initiated by the government, through programs (KUBE, PANSIMAS, BUNDES, PNPM, and P2KP), which are believed to improve poverty alleviation efforts in Manyampa Village, Ujung Loe District, Bulukumba Regency. The research method used in this research is quantitative research, with the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) analysis method. Data collection techniques were obtained from questionnaires or primary data sources, while secondary data were obtained from reports from BPS South Sulawesi, BPS Bulukumba, District Offices and related agencies in Bulukumba Regency. The novelty of this study is to explore further and evaluate what programs are quite effective in reducing poverty rates, with the help of expert choice with a consistency test. The results of this study indicate that in poverty alleviation efforts, the P2KP program is the most effective in reducing poverty with small business empowerment-based programs, while from community empowerment-based programs, the PANSIMAS program is more consistent than other programs in poverty alleviation efforts. P2KP and the PANSIMAS program each got a score of 0.02<0.1. It can be interpreted that the Inconsistency ratio <0.1 (the maximum limit) is also tested to be consistent, it's just that the achievement is lower than other programs. The implication of this research is that the local government needs to further evaluate ineffective poverty alleviation programs so that budget misallocations do not occur and are able to accelerate effective poverty alleviation programs that have been running. Keywords: Poverty, Program, Efectiveness
