Abstract

Since 2008, the numbers of cooperatives in East Java have almost doubled, which expected to increase small and medium enterprise (SME) competitiveness through easier access to financial aid. Likewise, the number of SME in East Java is also increased. However, its growth rate is still lower than that of cooperatives. Therefore, this research aims to learn whether cooperatives in East Java can improve SME competitiveness by understanding the impact of cooperative participation towards SME revenues. Here, treatment effect is conducted not only to estimate the magnitude of that impact, but also to identify the factors determining SME perceptions of entering cooperative. This research uses primary data, collected from 75 cooperative participant SMEs and 75 of non-cooperative participant SMEs. The result shows that SME revenues for cooperative participant are higher than that of non-cooperative participant, indicating the cooperative significantly contributes to increase SME revenues. Moreover, supported by SME perception for joining cooperative, the interest of SMEs participates in cooperative mainly due to its capability in widen market shares and providing resources for SMEs production in competitive ways. From SME perspectives, cooperative should be able to strengthen SME networks in both input and output markets; thus, SME competitiveness may be increased.

合作参与者是否加强了东爪哇中小企业的竞争力

自2008年以来，东爪哇的合作社数量几乎翻了一番，这有望通过更容易获得财政援助来提高中小企业的竞争力。同样，东爪哇的中小企业数量也有所增加。但是，其增长率仍然低于合作社的增长率。因此，本研究旨在通过了解合作社参与对中小企业收入的影响来了解东爪哇的合作社是否可以提高中小企业的竞争力。在这里，处理效果不仅是为了估计影响的大小，而且还确定了决定中小企业进入合作社的看法的因素。本研究使用的原始数据来自75家合作参与中小企业和75家非合作参与中小企业。结果表明，合作参与方的中小企业收入高于非合作参与方的中小企业收入，表明合作对中小企业收入的增加贡献显著。此外，在中小企业加入合作社的感知的支持下，中小企业参与合作社的利益主要是由于合作社能够扩大市场份额，并以竞争的方式为中小企业的生产提供资源。从中小企业的角度来看，合作社应该能够加强中小企业在投入和产出市场的网络;从而提高中小企业的竞争力。
