Indonesian sugar imports have increased due to a steady increase in sugar consumption, while domestic sugar output has increased but has not kept pace with consumption. This study aims to examine the impact of sugar consumption, income per capita, sugarcane harvested area, and sugarcane productivity on sugar imports in Indonesia. The data in this study include time series data from 1995 to 2021 that were analyzed using multiple regression. Sugar consumption and income per capita have a statistically significant positive effect on sugar import, whereas sugarcane harvested area and sugarcane productivity significantly negatively affect sugar import. Several policy options for reducing sugar imports are recommended, including reducing sugar consumption through education and healthy lifestyle programs, extending sugarcane-harvested areas, and rejuvenating and building new sugar mill.JEL Classification: F14, C22How to Cite:Inayaturrohmah, W.

The urban low-income segment of society survived on their earnings in the informal sector. This study examines the informal traffic controllers in the shadow economy framework who assist incoming cars at traffic-congested intersections and turning lanes in the main cities to earn income. This paper originates from the preliminary study of “Pak Ogah”: the Portrait of Shadow Economy in the Greater Area of Jakarta. The field study was conducted at 60 congested intersections and turning lanes on roadways where the informal traffic controller groups operated. The study employs a mixed method of qualitative and quantitative procedures and conducts a triangulation strategy. The study's implications suggest that the shadow economy was created by institutional failure to anticipate the negative impact of urban development policy.JEL Classification: O17, E26, R41, I32How to Cite:Chalid, P., & Kuswini, I.

Studies on the nexus between socioeconomic and demographic factors and crime reporting are still limited in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the socioeconomic and demographic causes of crime reporting in Indonesia using data from the results of the 2021 National Socioeconomic Survey. The data were analyzed using a binary logistic regression model. The unit of analysis was the population aged 15 years and older. The dependent variable was whether or not someone who experienced a crime reported it to the police. The independent variables were socioeconomic and demographic factors. The results of the study showed that a lower probability of reporting crime to the police was associated with being female, being younger, having higher educational attainment, living in urban areas, living in Java island, and working, implying the need to improve information, education, and communication on crime reporting among these groups.JEL Classification: A12, J19, K00, K39How to Cite:Rajagukguk, W.

The management of Hajj funds must be done effectively using a rigorous standardized risk management approach. This study aims to create a Hajj fund management model using Islamic financial instruments through the optimal portfolio method and strategic asset allocation. The model was built using historical data from 2010–2022, involving Islamic deposits, government sukuk (SBSN), corporate sukuk, and Islamic stocks, which were analyzed with the Markowitz portfolio equation in Excel Solver. The result showed that the optimal portfolio yields an 8.50% expected return with a 4.00% risk; strategic asset allocation produces an 8.25% return with a 2.99% risk. The policy implication of this research is the need to review the initial deposit of pilgrims and explore alternative investments to bridge the gap between the actual cost of Hajj and pilgrims' payments while improving returns.JEL Classification: M31, M37, L92 How to Cite:Masruroh, A., Rodoni, A., & Pontjowinoto, I.

Household consumption, which has changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, can survive by using their wealth to restore consumption levels. The current research analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the role of wealth in household consumption in Java, which has the largest share of the economy. Using panel data from 119 regencies/cities in Java Island during the 2017-2021 period due to data availability shows that there have been changes in household consumption patterns during the pandemic. The results of the panel data analysis show that the COVID-19 pandemic has a negative effect on household consumption. In contrast, wealth positively affects household consumption in almost all provinces on the island of Java. These results suggest increasing asset ownership for households to maximize wealth, positively affecting household consumption, mainly when shocks occur.JEL Classification: D19, E21, H31How to Cite:Murti, P.

This article aims to examine the connection between corruption and the amount of trade in several commodities, including raw materials, capital goods, intermediate products, and consumer goods, with a specific emphasis on the Indonesian situation. Indicators of corruption utilized in this article include the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) and the Control of Corruption (COC). Meanwhile, the sum of Indonesia's exports and imports indicated the country's trade volume. For this issue, this article employs the gravity model and regresses it with either a fixed effect or a random effect model. The empirical findings show that both the CPI and COC levels of corruption in Indonesia have a negative impact on the amount of trade in capital goods. However, only the CPI shows a negative correlation with the prevalence of corruption in Indonesia, whereas consumer products, intermediate goods, and raw materials all show a positive correlation. The impact of COC on Indonesia's trade partners is complicated for the commodities this article looked at. The insights generated from this study hold significant value in shaping a more informed and accurate representation of how corruption permeates and impacts international trade dynamics, thus contributing to a more nuanced understanding of this critical issue.JEL Classification: D73, F10, C01How to Cite:Yunan, Z.

本文旨在研究腐败与几种商品的贸易量之间的联系,包括原材料、资本货物、中间产品和消费品,并特别强调印度尼西亚的情况。本文使用的腐败指标包括腐败感知指数(CPI)和腐败控制指数(COC)。同时,印尼的出口和进口的总和表明了该国的贸易额。对于这个问题,本文采用重力模型,并采用固定效应或随机效应模型对其进行回归。实证结果表明,印尼的CPI和COC腐败水平对资本货物贸易量都有负面影响。然而,只有CPI与印尼的腐败程度呈负相关,而消费品、中间产品和原材料都呈正相关。COC对印尼贸易伙伴的影响对于本文所研究的商品来说是复杂的。本研究产生的见解具有重要价值,有助于对腐败如何渗透和影响国际贸易动态做出更明智和准确的描述,从而有助于更细致地理解这一关键问题。JEL分类:D73, F10, c01引用方式:Yunan, Z. y(2023)。印尼的高腐败程度是否影响其贸易额?意义[j] .经济学报,12(2),425-440。https://doi.org/10.15408/sjie.v12i2.35156。

While financial inclusion is widely acknowledged as a means to enhance the welfare of all ages, currently, there is no empirical research examining its effects on the health of older adults in Indonesia. This study, therefore, aims to fill the gap by investigating the impact of financial inclusion on the health of older adults in Indonesia using data from the March 2021 National SocioEconomic Survey (SUSENAS). The binary logistics regression was used to assess that effect.

Since the stipulation of regional autonomy in the early 2000s, local governments have managed their revenues and expenditures independently, in direct or revenue-sharing funds from the Central Government, including income from natural resource exploitation. This study aims to identify the region with high natural resources, especially from the mining and quarrying sectors, expected to improve its human resources quality, focusing on the employment sector. In addition, this study identifies the impact of natural resources on reducing unemployment in 34 provinces in 2015-2021. A previous study implemented natural resources rent to proxy natural resources in a region. However, identification of this proxy has been challenging due to the considerable informality in Indonesia. This study employs mining and quarrying sectors to proxy natural resources as a comprehensive output of a region. The data used in this study was secondary data sourced from the National Statistics Board (BPS). The analysis method of this study was fixed effect with the Human Development Index (HDI) and the unemployment rate as the dependent variable. The results of this study revealed that regional natural resources did not impact HDI or reduce the unemployment rate in a province, indicating that the mining and quarrying sectors did not contribute to improving the quality of human resources and reducing unemployment significantly.JEL Classification: C01, O13, O15, O17How to Cite:Gunawan, B.

The provincial government in Indonesia has been mandated to collect environmental-related taxes in recurrent vehicle taxes, vehicle transfer taxes, and gasoline taxes. These vehicle-related taxes have been the dominant type for the provincial government. Yet, the environment-related spending has been relatively low, within 1-3% of total expenditures. This study examines to what extent such environmental tax–spending mix affects the environmental outcomes measured by the air quality index. The novelty of this study comes in using detailed environmental-related tax revenues at the sub-national level and providing a context of the large developing country in a decentralized economy – Indonesia – as a case study. Our study finds the link between environmental tax in the case of the vehicle recurrent tax and gasoline tax in improving air quality and environmental quality index, respectively. But on the spending side, there is no evidence that provincial environmental spending may improve the air or environmental quality index. Nonetheless, we found a correlation between the vehicle transfer tax revenues and the share of province environmental spending, implying that environmental tax revenues, to some extent, correspond to the related provincial expenditures on environmental protection. This study signals the need also to expand environmental spending to complement existing environmental tax policy at the provincial level.JEL Classification: H71, H76, Q53How to Cite:Qibthiyyah, R.

印度尼西亚的地方政府被指定征收经常车辆税、车辆转让税、汽油税等与环境有关的税。这些与车辆相关的税收一直是省政府的主要税种。然而,与环境相关的支出相对较低,在总支出中的占比不到1-3%。本研究考察了这种环境税-支出组合对空气质量指数所衡量的环境结果的影响程度。这项研究的新颖之处在于,它使用了地方一级与环境有关的税收的详细数据,并提供了一个分散经济中的大型发展中国家——印度尼西亚——的背景作为案例研究。我们的研究发现,在车辆经常性税和汽油税的情况下,环境税在改善空气质量和环境质量指数方面分别存在联系。但在支出方面,没有证据表明省级环境支出可能改善空气或环境质量指数。尽管如此,我们发现车辆转让税收收入与省级环境支出份额之间存在相关性,这意味着环境税收收入在一定程度上与相关的省级环境保护支出相对应。这项研究表明,还需要扩大环境支出,以补充省级现有的环境税收政策。JEL分类:H71, H76, q53如何引用:Qibthiyyah, R.

This study investigates the role of Shariah investment in Indonesia's inclusive growth. Shariah investment is measured in terms of Shariah stocks and sukuk. As determinants of inclusive growth, the study also includes several control variables adopted from separate literature, including the effect of COVID-19. In contrast to previous research, testing is conducted using a variety of inclusive growth metrics. Using principal component analysis (PCA) to compute the composite index of inclusive growth and time series regression models with monthly data at the national level from 2011 to 2022, this study finds three main conclusions. Evidence shows that Shariah investment contributes to inclusive growth in Indonesia, but the effects vary. Shariah stocks significantly affect poverty and unemployment, whereas Sukuk affects poverty and inequality. Both contributed to improving the Human Development Index (HDI) and inclusive growth. This study also revealed that COVID-19 was instrumental in reducing Indonesia's inclusive growth performance. This study complements prior empirical research on inclusive growth issues in Indonesia by examining the role of Islamic economics and finance. This research contributes to future policy initiatives to strengthen Indonesia's inclusive growth.JEL Classification: D24, O14, O4How to Cite:Indra & Ibrahim, M. Y. (2023).
