Construction of the Koto Panjang Dam was initiated in response to the rapidly increasing demand for electricity in the central region of Sumatra, Indonesia. The process of resettling the villages affected by this construction lasted from 1991 to 2000. The economic factors related to this resettlement programme include monetary compensation, productive capacity, and appropriate distribution of income. Better-off villages (such as those where a rubber plantation was found) received a higher level of compensation and used this compensation to purchase productive assets. Increasing the level of a family's income generates better income distribution and a lower level of poverty, whereas decreasing it creates worse income distribution and a higher level of poverty. The presence of productive capacity is necessary to guarantee the success of an involuntary resettlement programme that attempts to improve the standard of living for displaced peoples.
Economic development positions human as an important factor of production. Therefore quality human resources are needed for sustainable development. Indonesia as a country with a large population potential is expected to take advantage of the opportunity through demographic bonuses that will occur in 2020-2030. However, the emergence of NEET (not in employment, education or training) has become a new problem that threatens the success of development. NEET is a measure that includes young people in the age range of 15-24 years old, who are not in employment, education or training. NEET is considered more comprehensive than unemployment because it can see the dynamics and activeness of youth in the labor market. The presence of NEET is inseparable from the determinant characteristics the chances of someone becoming a NEET youth. This study uses Sakernas data for 2017 and 2018 to see the phenomenon and determinant characteristics of NEET status. The result showed NEET youth in West Sumatera was dominated by economically inactive youth. And by using logistic regression analysis, obtained several characteristic that significantly influence the chance of youth's vulnerability to become a NEET. Youth who live in rural areas have a greater opportunity to become NEET youth, while youth with high level education are even more vulnerable to becoming NEET. Gender does not have a significant effect on determinants of NEET status in areas that adhere to this matrilineal kinship system. Based on the result of this study, the government as the holder of authority is expected to implement policies to reduce the proportion of NEET youth.
Changes in land use in the Air Dingin watershed (DAS) area in Padang City, Indonesia, lead to a decrease in rainwater infiltration volume to the ground. Some land use in the Latung sub-watershed decrease in infiltration capacity with an increase in surface runoff. This research aims to determine the effect of land-use changes on infiltration capacity and surface runoff. Purposive sampling method was used in this research. The infiltration capacity was measured directly in the field using a double-ring infiltrometer, and the data was processed using the Horton model. The obtained capacity was quantitatively classified using infiltration zoning. Meanwhile, the Hydrologic Engineering Center - Hydrology Modeling System with the Synthetic Unit Hydrograph- Soil Conservation Service -Curve Number method was used to analyze the runoff discharge. The results showed that from the 13 measurement points carried out, the infiltration capacity ranges from 0.082 - 0.70 cm/minute or an average of 0.398 cm/minute, while the rainwater volume is approximately 150,000 m3/hour/km2. Therefore, the soil infiltration capacity in the Latung sub-watershed is in zone VI-B or very low. This condition had an impact on changes in runoff discharge in this area, from 87.84 m3/second in 2010 to 112.8 m3/second in 2020 or a nail of 22.13%. Based on the results, it is concluded that changes in the land led to low soil infiltration capacity, thereby leading to an increase in surface runoff.
Information on human capital, especially for school- age population is still limited. Most of Indicators of human capital only consider the dimensions of education, while human capital is formed by various dimensions not only education. Recent human capital measurement is displayed in macro level so that difficult to analys in micro level. Based on recent condition of human capital information, this study aims to measure the human capital of the school-age population of 7-18 years old using the fuzzy set approach by considering several dimensions of human capital investment and analysis the determinant. The data source is from West Sumatera Socio-Economic Survey that held by National Bureau of Statistic in March 2017. Measurement human capital of 9,950 samples of school age population shows that urban areas have higher human capital than the rural areas. Internal factors, household and spouse characteristics such as income, parent education and occupation have impact in their children human capital. External factors such as subsidies and rural-urban development inequality also have impact and tend to be larger than internal factor. The strategy of increasing human capital under conditions of limited resources can be achieved by increasing the index of indicators which have greatest weight and also reducing development inequality between urban and rural areas. The other policy is to realize growth economic that have positive impact to entire society. In terms of methodology, this approach can be adapted to regional conditions, the development of theory and related research. Adjustments can be made at the stage of selecting investment indicators, data types and weight of indicator
Enactment of the Village Law brings enthusiasm to the rural development paradigm. One of the main outputs of the government planning document is the increase of priority development in rural areas and villages. This is implemented by increasing the source of village income budget through the village fund program. This study aims to analyze the impact of village budgets and geographic difficulties, and village households on village status in Riau Province. Multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the impact of Village Fund allocation, Village Fund, Geographical Difficulty Index, and number of households in 2018 on the achievements of the Developing Village Index in 2019. Research results show that Village Fund allocation budget and the number of households have positive impacts on the Developing Village Index (Indeks Desa Membangun). in Riau Province. Meanwhile, increase in Village Fund budget and Geographical Difficulty Index have negative impacts on the Developing Village Index in Riau Province.
