of a country's development. This study aims to determine and analyze the two-way
influence between economic growth and poverty in Indonesia: (1) The effect of
unemployment, poverty, investments and economic growth. (2) The effect of
investment, life expectancy, literacy, and length of education, and economic
growth on poverty.This study uses panel data or pooled time-series crossection
using time series data from the years 2005-2009, and the crossection is that there
are 33 provinces in Indonesia. The method used is descriptive and econometric
analysis using a model of simultaneous equations (simultaneous equations
models) with two-stage least squares method (Two-Stage Least Square 2SLS)
using Indirect Least Square (ILS).
The results showed that there is a two-way interplay between economic
growth and poverty. Significant effect on economic growth in poverty reduction,
especially in rural areas there are many pockets of poverty. the opposite of
poverty is also a significant effect on economic growth. Through improved access
to capital, quality of education (literacy and increased length of education) and
health (increased life expectancy) of the poor can increase their productivity in
the attempt during the period 2000-2009. The unemployment rate, and significant
investment on economic growth. Furthermore, investments in domestic and
foreign investments, life expectancy, literacy and school longer a significant effect
on the number of poor.
Based on these findings the policy the government should do is spur
economic growth through the expansion of investment especially in agriculture
(agribusiness and agro-industries) in rural areas where many poor people
depend. Recommended to the government in order to spur economic growth in
urban areas in order to prioritize employment in which informal sector in general
the poor do business. Whereas in rural areas run projects that are capital -
intensive investment to open up employment opportunities, especially in the
agricultural sector. Furthermore, it also advised the government both at central
and regional levels through the state budget and regional budgets in order to
further enhance the percentage of budget allocation on health and education to
improve the quality of human resources of Indonesia's population. In order to
improve the quality of human resources in Indonesia suggested that the
government should also continue to run the program compulsory 9 (nine) years,
and scholarships for children from poor families to achieve to improve the quality
