Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="en"> This paper analyzes the competitiveness of Indonesian wood-based products using revealed symmetric comparative advantage (RSCA), Spearman rank correlation (SRC), product mapping, and constant market share (CMS) analyses. RSCA results show that Indonesia had a comparative advantage in wood-based products, especially in Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) 245, 248, 251, 634, 635, 641, and 821. SRC results find that Indonesian wood-based products do not show a structural shift in comparative advantage during 1991–2010 while product mapping places Indonesia in group A (comparative advantage and a net exporter) in SITC 245, 634, and 635. CMS reveals that the increase in wood-based product export was caused by an increase in world exports, and commodity and market distribution effects. This study examines Indonesia's log export ban policies, which have been inconsistently implemented for the past several decades and adversely affect the country's global competitiveness, and recommends that Jakarta eliminate these policies and impose an appropriate export tax rate on logs.

印尼木基产品的竞争力

本文使用揭示对称比较优势(RSCA)、斯皮尔曼等级相关性(SRC)、产品映射和恒定市场份额(CMS)分析来分析印尼木制品的竞争力。RSCA的结果显示，印度尼西亚在木制品方面具有比较优势，特别是在标准国际贸易分类(SITC) 245、248、251、634、635、641和821方面。SRC的结果发现，印度尼西亚的木制品在1991-2010年期间没有表现出比较优势的结构性转变，而产品地图将印度尼西亚置于SITC 245、634和635中的a组(比较优势和净出口国)。CMS显示，木制品出口的增加是由于世界出口的增加，以及商品和市场分配的影响。本研究考察了印度尼西亚的原木出口禁令政策，该政策在过去几十年中一直不一致地实施，对该国的全球竞争力产生了不利影响，并建议雅加达取消这些政策，并对原木征收适当的出口税率。
