This study aims to provethe famous, so called: resource curse hypothesis is really exist in Indonesia. In contrast to empirical studies typically use an econometric methods, we choose alternative, to use a field survey approach to interview and photograph the factual conditions that occur. We chose coal mining in Kalimantan corridor with four sample sub-district (kabupaten) and cities in the province of East Kalimantan (Kutai regency and the city of Samarinda) as an object of research. More specifically, the purpose of this study is to answer the question: whether the coal mining activities affect (positive or negative) for the population in the surrounding area. Primarily concerned with the social and economic dimensions such as environmental quality, livelihoods and the shift pattern, cost of living, income, employment opportunities and openness sought. The results show facts from field, the implications and provide insight to the truth of the resource curse hypothesis debate.   Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan hipotesis kutukan sumber daya alam (natural resource curse hypothesis) berlaku di Indonesia. Berbeda dengan penelitian empiris yang biasanya menggunakan pendekatan ekonometrik, kami memilih menggunakan pendekatan survei lapangan dengan wawancara dan memotret langsung kondisi faktual yang terjadi. Kami memilih pertambangan batu bara di koridor Kalimantan dengan empat sampel  wilayah kecamatan kabupaten dan kota di Provinsi Kalimantan Timur (Kabupaten Kutai Kartanegara dan Kota Samarinda) sebagai obyek penelitian.

The payment system accumulates through an interbank fund transfer system, banking procedures, and a set of instruments that guarantee the circulation of money (Hancock & Humphrey, 1997). The theory of money expressed by Fisher is very striking and different from Marx’s. Marx only emphasizes monetary developments as contemporary capitalism. However, Fisher on the form of money and the function of money in a certain amount (as cited in Ivanova, 2020). The flow of electronic and digital transactions has continued to innovate over the past decade. An important point of this research is to identify electronic transactions and digital transactions against the velocity of money (VoM) in Indonesia. Fisher’s theory of money is applied to this study. Through a quantitative approach, time-series data for 2009–2019 was collected from the Bank of Indonesia and BPS-Indonesia. Multiple linear regression analysis is useful in interpreting the data. As a result, we find electronic transactions measured by credit cards appear to have a negative effect on VoM, but the impact is significant. Meanwhile, debit cards actually have a positive and significant effect on the value of VoM. Interestingly, other empirical results explore the relationship of digital transactions represented by e-money with VoM, where the effect is negative and insignificant. This finding is also very relevant to banking efforts to harmonize and adopt advanced technology in the financial system

The digital era transforms behavior change; this study aims to determine the role of local governments in the digital era and the pandemic in alleviating stunting in Indonesia. This type of research is qualitative; the research method uses in-depth interviews and triangulation for data analysis. Sources of data from Key informants and informants from the Department and the community in Loa Kulu District, Kutai Kartanegara. The results showed that the program “Deserves Healthy Sports” Kutai regional government applied mammal, in Kalimantan, Indonesia, has been applied in various areas through online media such as health programs. However, the socialisation of this health program is still lacking, and the health program is also not optimal; it is shown that the level of public health, especially regarding stunting, is still quite high. The program for the community’s welfare to alleviate poverty has not been achieved because the government’s efforts have experienced many obstacles in its implementation due to the pandemic, such as many residents who do not work due to limited employment opportunities. Residents do not have other work skills; another factor is distributing food. Does not support it, so that in order to collect data and distribute assistance for stunting toddlers, they still often experience obstacles.
