For the last seven years, this sector contributes the most GDP share (approximately more than 20%) compared to other largest sectors, namely agriculture, forestry, and fishery, as well as wholesale and retail trades. Interestingly, the manufacturing sector has the lowest number of workers compared to other mentioned sectors. Based on this comparison, the manufacturing sector likely requires workers who have a good educational background and work experience. Moreover, workers in the manufacturing sector have higher earnings compare to the other two sectors for almost all educational attainments, and its rate is increasing along with the incremental level of education. The study estimates are based on the Mincerian wage equation with a broad cross-section data of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) wave 5. The results show that educational attainment and work experiences are significantly and positively correlated with earnings in both urban and rural areas.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41954976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The series of earthquakes in July-August 2018 had caused direct losses in the form of casualties and physical damage to infrastructures such as houses, roads, bridges and production facilities. Disasters also caused indirect impacts that can be measured through changes in macroeconomic indicators such as economic growth, foreign tourist visits, the number of passengers on land and air transportation, the occupancy rates of a star hotel and non-star hotel rooms, export-import, unemployment, and inflation. Through literature review and descriptive analysis of official statistical data produced by the Indonesian Statistics Bureau (BPS), it was found that the response and sensitivity of these indicators were different from the shock of the earthquake. In general, almost all of these indicators show negative changes after the earthquake, except inflation. This reflects that earthquake natural disasters have a negative impact on the economy in NTB.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41466022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model itself consists of data reduction activity, data display and conclusion, and data drawing or data verification. The result of this research shows that the institutional setting of seaweed production has not been well managed yet, which is indicated by the overlapping of structure, function and duties of several bureaucracy institutions. Second, the local competitiveness in seaweed trade is still weak. Third, the upgrading capacity to process and diversified the commodity remains low because the industrialization is merely reckon on small-medium size industries. Fourth, government efforts in enhancing the upgrading capacity frequently limited at the technique aspects, meaning the institutional setting to enforce the synergy between actors is considered poor.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47362295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"FISCAL POLICY MANAGEMENT AND PRIVATE INVESTMENT IN NIGERIA","authors":"S. Awode","doi":"10.18196/JESP.20.1.5011","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18196/JESP.20.1.5011","url":null,"abstract":"The Nigerian government over the years embarked on diverse macroeconomic policy options to tinker the economy on the path of growth and development. Amongst the policy options readily employed is that of fiscal policy. Despite the lofty place of fiscal policy in the management of the Nigerian economy, the economy is yet to come on the path of sound growth and development. The intent of fiscal management is essentially to stimulate economic and social development by pursuing a policy stance that ensures a sense of balance between taxation, expenditure and borrowing that is consistent with sustainable growth. However, the extent to which fiscal management engenders private investment continues to attract theoretical and empirical debate especially in developing countries like Nigeria. In light of this, the present study fills the gap by examining the relationship between fiscal management and private investment in Nigeria between 1987 and 2015. The study employed ex-post facto research design. Secondary time series data were used for the study and these were sourced from CBN statistical bulletin and World Development Indicators, 2015. The data collected were analyzed using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag with inferences drawn at 5% significance level. The result of the relationship between fiscal management and private investment in Nigeria showed that inflation, capital expenditure, indirect tax and non-tax revenue had positive and significant effects on private investment (β=0.02, t=19.04; β=0.59, t=40.13; β=1.70, t=17.07; β=1.05, t=22.03 respectively) in Nigeria, while domestic credit to private sector had negative but significant effect on private investment (β = -0.09, t = -17.26) in Nigeria within the period. The study concluded that a crowding-in relationship exists between capital expenditure and private investment, while indirect tax revenue has significant and non-distortionary relationship with private investment. The study therefore recommends more public investment in capital projects and that the tax system should generally be made favorable towards private sector investment.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45254213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some literature, reports or strategic plans, historical archives and websites were reviewed to conduct the sociopolitical analysis of the institutionalization of the concept in the prior review. It depicts specifically the context of the local communities’ movement to value the natural capital at the Lewes area, East Sussex, England as part of the programs to decouple ‘green payment’ from agricultural sector.

One important issue to address is related to environmental quality. It has been fifteen years since ASEAN-China Free Trade Agreement (ACFTA) was firstly signed and the total trade flows between ASEAN countries and China have grown around US$ 20 billion per year. Under the ACFTA commitment, tariff rates for exports from China to ASEAN countries have been reduced gradually and so have the tariff rates of ASEAN exports to China. This paper attempts to investigate whether expanded trade causes environmental damage in Indonesia. As the main largest economy in ASEAN, Indonesia has greatly contributed to the pollution released in ASEAN area. Using industrial pollution projection system developed by World Bank in 1995, it has been found that the estimated amounts of pollution have been increasing by approximately five times in Indonesia after fifteen years of ACFTA implementation. Even though the share of export of most polluting sectors has been decreasing, its contribution on the pollution intensity remains the largest. Since chemicals become the most polluting sector with its rapid growing in export to China, this sector needs to be considered in trade negotiations in order to lessen negative impacts of trade to the environment.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44343015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
