Pengaruh remitansi terhadap konsumen, pertumbuhan konsumsi dan tingkat kemiskinan daerah di Indonesia tahun 2007-2009

Deskripsi

Although internasional labor migration has become a part of the Indonesian government's development strategy, attention to the impact of remittances on the economy is still minimum, including from research perspective. Therefore, this study seeks to fill this locus by analyzing the effect of remittances on welfare at subnational level with per capita consumption, consumption growth and poverty rate. Analyzes were conducted for the period of 2007 to 2009 with seventeen regions covering 33 provinces of Indonesia. By using simple Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression, remittances are found to significantly increase per capita household consumption, but cannot be proved to have impacts on poverty rate and consumption growth.Ada tabel
