Abstract

This study aims to investigate the determinants of capital expenditure (capex) for Malaysian palm oil companies listed at Bursa Malaysia.  The study uses the dynamic panel data analysis (generalized method of moment) estimation for the sample of 40 palm oil-oriented firms that spanning from year 2000 until 2016. Findings/Originality: The empirical findings revealed that, in the short run and the long run, the capex spending is significantly affected by the cash flow, sale growth, and world crude palm oil price. However, Average Q  significantly influences the capex decision in the long run only. Thus, the policy implication from this study suggests that palm oil-oriented firms should take into account the movement of world crude palm oil (CPO) price in designing their capital expenditure strategy. In addition, proper planning for managing firms’ cash flow and sale growth are also important for expanding their capex in future.

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the effect of macroeconomic indicators on foreign reserves in Pakistan. A Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model has been used to estimate Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves demand from the period of 1984 to 2015. Findings/Originality: The results indicate that macroeconomic variables such as remittances, exchange rate, the ratio of current account deficit to GDP and interest rate differential (measure as opportunity cost) determine the country’s long-run reserves demand function. Whereas, observed results show that demand of foreign reserves is highly sensitive to capital account vulnerability and less responsive to its opportunity cost. The Granger causality analysis shows that the various macroeconomic variables fail to cause reverse causality. It implies that in Pakistan the demand of reserves is driven by macroeconomic stability. The study is helpful for the country’s institutions to boost foreign reserves by controlling macroeconomics indicators.

Abstract

This article aims to investigate the determinants of willingness to pay and the actual purchase decision of organic agriculture products among consumers in Vietnam, one of the emerging markets. The study uses primary survey data of 210 consumers based on the logit and ordered logit regression models. Findings/Originality: The results confirmed that consumers' perceptions of external factors and product attributions, external factors (processing, packaging, and labelling, certification, supply of product), perceived health and nutrition of products, socioeconomic characteristics significantly influence on consumer’s willingness to pay and actual purchase decision for organic foods in the context of Vietnam market. These results of the study provided insights for marketers on the key variables that could be used for promoting more widespread consumption of organic foods in the country.

Abstract

This sudy uses a Mincerian earnings function to estimate the effect of education and experience on the wages of women working in developed business and trade center of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. It employs a robust median regression and M Regression to estimate the fuctions for both public and private sectors. The paper also estimates the fuction using a least squared regression for comparisson. Finding/Originality: The results show that returns to education for women employees in private sector are higher than that of in the public sector. In contrast, the returns to experience for women employees in the public sector are higher than those in the private sector. The study reveals that schooling has strong causal effects on wages. Therefore, the goverment should give sufficient priority to education. Every Som spent in quality education generates strong positive returns for the whole economy. so that Kyrgyz government should put more efforts to enable individuals staying longer in education

Abstract

The finance-growth nexus is gaining credence among researchers. Growing research interest in developing evidences for different economic sectors has ignited this study to examine the topic in agricultural sector for Malaysia. The analysis focuses on palm oil industry using data for the period 1981 to 2017 using the Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL-bounds) approach. Financial development measures financial depth, accessibility, efficiency, and stability. Other variables include production factors such as land, labour and capital. Findings/Originality: The findings show that the depth of financial market has positive impact on palm oil industry performance both in the short run and long run, though the depth of the financial institutions only take effect in the long run. Meanwhile the financial accessibility, efficiency and stability have no significant effect on the productivity of the industry. It implies that the equity market development is more relevant to affect the palm oil industry compared to credit market development.

Abstract

Malaysian Islamic banks operate in different organizational structures, namely domestic, locally foreign incorporated, and development financial institutions which may have an influence on their stability. This research evaluates the bankruptcy profiles of 19 selected Malaysian Islamic banks from 2010 to 2017 and analyses the insolvency risk associated with the three different organizational structures. Using the Altman’s Z-Score Model (2000), a stability test was conducted. Findings/Originality: the paper finds that, on average, the development financial institutions were the most stable banks, followed by foreign Islamic banks. It also finds that bigger domestic Islamic banks were situated in the safe zone as they had high Z-score values. Furthermore, asset quality ratio contributed to higher Z-score values. An appropriate asset-liability management therefore helps ensure the stability of Islamic banks in Malaysia. An effective macroprudential supervisory regime must also be in place to increase the resilience of the financial system.

Abstract

This study investigates the bargaining power of labor over wages and the wage inequality among industries based on the industrial structure in Indonesia. It uses a panel data model and secondary data from 2008-2015. This study argues that wage inequality really matters among the industries and tends to enlarge among them despite the existence of  the bargaining power of labor over wage. Findings/Originality: The labor bargaining power over wage in Large and Medium Industries still has greater probability to be increased compared to that in Small and Micro Industries. It implies that the wage inequality still matters in the labor market, particularly in the three industrial groups, and tends to enlarge among them. Government has to take care seriously on the industrial structure with regard to wage bargaining power of labor and particularly wage inequality. Moreover, the government should promote fair wage levels between industries and labor of each industrial classification, particularly in developing countries.

Abstract

The study aims to describe the characteristics of unemployed workers in Central Java Province and to determine the model of educated unemployment duration. It uses the linear regression model of 1721 workforces that are sampled from National Labor Survey 2015. The model regress the unemployment duration on age, sex, education level, income during unemployment period and GRDP of the industrial, service and agricultural sectors. Findings and Originality: The results show that variables of age, sex, the income of job seekers, education level at junior and senior high school level and GRDP in the agricultural sector have a positive effect on the unemployment duration. The variables of the status of household head, the high school education level, as well as the GRDP service sector, negatively effect the unemployment duration. Thus, it is recommended for the Central Java province government to develop service sectors to shorten the duration of unemployment in Central Java Province.Keywords: Unemployment Duration, Search Theory

Abstract

Fiscal decentralization was firstly implemented in 2001 and has brought a new era of local autonomy in Indonesia. The objective of fiscal decentralization to local government is to increase the economic growth and public service. This research uses a panel data regression and quadrant analysis method with the data of cluster districts and cities in Indonesia from 2013 to 2018. Findings/Originality: The panel regression estimation shows that fiscal decentralization has a positive and significant effect on economic growth in all clusters. However, the quadrant analysis results show that on average 86.7% of all clusters districts and cities were in quadrant IV which reflects low fiscal decentralization and low economic growth. The implication of the result is that the government should increases the allocation of capital expenditure in local budget to accelerate local economic growth of the districts/cities in all clusters.
