Pengaruh Energi Terbarukan dan Adopsi Teknologi Terhadap Kualitas Udara Negara Berkembang di Asia Tenggara
This study aims to determine and analyze how renewable energy and technology adoption affect air quality in developing countries in Southeast Asia. This study uses secondary data sourced from the World Bank from 2000-2021 with research variables grouped into three parts: the dependent variable which in this study is defined as air quality, and the independent variables are renewable energy and technology adoption, and the control variables used in this study are economic openness, manufacturing sector, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), forest area and energy intensity. This study uses panel data regression analysis with a cross section of 5 developing countries in Southeast Asia and a time series from 2000-2021. The results of the study indicate that renewable energy and technological adoption have a negative effect on air quality as measured by carbon dioxide (CO2) emission levels, thus providing an opportunity to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emission levels in these countries.
Efek Penerimaan Daerah Melalui Pertumbuhan Ekonomi Dalam Mempengaruhi Belanja Modal di Indonesia
Capital expenditure plays a critical role in regional economic development, yet its effectiveness is highly influenced by the fiscal capacity of local governments. This study aims to analyze the effect of locally generated revenue, revenue-sharing funds, general allocation funds, and special allocation funds on capital expenditure in Indonesia, with economic growth as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using panel data regression analysis on 34 provinces in Indonesia from 2019 to 2023. The Fixed Effect Model (FEM) was selected based on Chow and Hausman test results. Path analysis was used to examine both direct and indirect effects between variables. The findings indicate that locally generated revenue and special allocation funds have a positive and significant impact on capital expenditure, while general allocation funds show a significant negative effect and revenue-sharing funds are statistically insignificant. Locally generated revenue and revenue-sharing funds positively influence economic growth, whereas special allocation funds have a negative effect. Economic growth does not significantly affect capital expenditure, thus it does not serve as a mediating variable. The study suggests optimizing local revenue and evaluating the effectiveness of general and special fund allocations. Future research should consider institutional and governance quality as additional explanatory variables.
Pengaruh Penduduk Usia Muda dan Tingkat Pendidikan Tinggi Terhadap Tingkat Pengangguran di Indonesia
Unemployment is one of the most crucial labor market issues in Indonesia, particularly among young people and higher education graduates. This study aims to analyze the effects of the proportion of young population, higher education attainment, and technological skills on the unemployment rate in Indonesia, while considering minimum wages, labor force participation rate (LFPR), and economic growth as control variables. The method employed is panel data regression with a fixed effect model, based on secondary data from 34 provinces in Indonesia over the period 2018–2024. The results indicate that the young population, higher education attainment, and technological skills have a positive and significant effect on the unemployment rate. Conversely, minimum wages, LFPR, and economic growth have a negative and significant effect on unemployment. These findings suggest that the increasing number of young people and participation in higher education have not been matched by labor market readiness. Therefore, more responsive policies are needed to align education and job training with industry demands in order to reduce unemployment rates.

The results of this study reveal several important findings: (1) the unemployment rate has a positive and significant effect on poverty rates in Indonesia. (2) the health variable has a negative but insignificant relationship with poverty (3) Internet access has been shown to have a negative and significant impact on poverty (4) Economic growth shows a significant negative impact on poverty (5) Labor availability has a positive and significant impact on economic growth (6) Education levels have a negative and significant impact on economic growth (7) Poverty shows a negative and significant impact on economic growth.
Developing from the Village: A Regional Economic Perspective in Indonesia
Village development in Indonesia is one of the main focuses in an effort to strengthen the national economy and achieve equitable development. The research method uses descriptive qualitative with data collection of interviews and documentation. The results showed that the development of adequate infrastructure, access to education and health services, as well as local economic empowerment through tourism and agriculture sectors are crucial factors in advancing villages in Indonesia. Fiscal decentralization policies and village fund programs implemented by the central government have had a positive impact on village development, although challenges remain in terms of implementation and sustainability at the local level. The study also found that active community participation and cooperation between the government, local communities, and the private sector are critical to achieving successful village development. Recommendations include improving the management capacity of village governments, strengthening collaboration between various stakeholders, and developing local innovations that are relevant to the village context. This research provides important insights for policymakers and practitioners in designing more effective interventions for village development in Indonesia.

Pengaruh Risiko Pembiayaan Terhadap Kinerja Keuangan Bank Umum Syariah di Indonesia
This study offers significant new insights into the relationship between financing risk, as determined by Non-Performing Financing (NPF), and Islamic Commercial Banks' financial performance, as determined by Return On Asset (ROA). In this study, data from 10 Islamic Commercial Banks in Indonesia between 2016 and 2023 are analyzed using panel data regression. The results show that NPF significantly lowers ROA. This suggests that inadequate financing risk management can have a significant negative influence on the profitability of Islamic banks, as the greater the NPF level, the worse the bank's financial performance. The aforementioned discovery underscores the need of executing efficient risk mitigation strategies to guarantee the steadiness and durability of banks' fiscal outcomes. It also emphasizes how Islamic banks must concentrate more on reducing financing risk if they want to increase market share and perform better.
