“…These arguments have been supported by BPS -Statistics Indonesia, which found that the percentage of unmet healthcare services needs on Java is significantly below the national average from 2018 to 2020. In addition, Prima and Khoirunurrofik (2019) found that the provision of public goods affected the flow of people living in less developed areas. Consequently, this causes productive-age adults to move to the more concentrated area either for work or to gain better educational access.…”

Although empowering women provides advantages for women and their children and family, the long-term advantage is yet to be deeply studied. By utilizing 14 years of longitudinal information, this study investigated the link between empowerment and later life well-being among women. Data from two later rounds of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS3 [2000] & IFLS5 [2014/2015]) were analyzed using logistic regression with robust standard error. Results showed that unempowered women were more likely to have trouble in activities of daily living (ADL) in older age. When the analysis was specified based on living locations, empowerment among women living on the island of Java had no statistical association with later life well-being. In contrast, empowerment among women living off the island of Java was highly significant in affecting ADL problems with double strength in magnitude as that of the general sample. This finding provided insight into the vital role that empowerment plays in older adults’ well-being, especially those living off the island of Java. Moreover, having a chronic disease is associated with having a higher likelihood of difficulties with ADL. Older adults who were involved in paid activities are found to perform better in ADL than older persons not working. Furthermore, having more family members impacts the likelihood of difficulties with women’s ADL.

“…Technically, migration results from interactions among multiple driving aspects, including factors associated with origin and destination, physical/non-physical intervening obstacles, and subtle personal aspects (Lee 1966). In the literature, scholars often use economic approaches to understand human mobility (Castelli 2018;Marta et al 2020;Prima and Khoirunurrofik 2019;Todaro 1969); however, studies on personal behavior in rural mobility are arising (Dandy et al 2019;Pedersen 2018). Of the emerging behavioral research, studies on place attachment have recognized personal behavior as a contributing factor to rural migration along with its complexity (Barcus and Brunn 2009).…”

Rural-to-urban migration disturbs essential factors of rural development, including labor forces, land ownership, and food production. To avoid late responses to emigration, scholars have begun investigating earlier stages of rural emigration. However, prior studies have focused on a single spatial entity only while also leaning toward trends in developed countries. Therefore, this study fills gaps by focusing on the differences in migration intention between villages in less developed settings. In observing the differences, this research takes peri-urban and remote villages as cases located at different distances from their nearest urban destination. This study treats migration intention as the dependent variable while using single-indicator place attachment and multi-indicator information sources as the independent variables. This work applies the Mann–Whitney U, ANOVA, and Brown–Forsythe tests on three hypotheses. This research also uses SEM-PLS to investigate the correlation model of the observed variables for each case. The results show that information sources negatively affect migration intentions in peri-urban settings. Remote rural areas also show similar results for the information sources variable; however, place attachment in remote settings significantly contributes to migration intention. These results show that place attachment and information sources contribute differently, depending on the distance to the urban area. We argue that access to public services and infrastructure contributes to the results. The findings suggest that an increased availability of information sources impedes the formation of migration intentions. Thus, this study suggests the necessity of improving rural infrastructure and public services to improve information literacy. It helps the government control rural emigration while fulfilling its obligation for rural development. It also offers better rural livelihoods during the development progress, providing economic incentives for villagers to stay in villages.

“…Berdasarkan kajian literatur, penelitian yang ada belum membahas tentang adanya perubahan pola migrasi pada saat pelaksanaan pilkada khususnya di negara demokrasi muda seperti Indonesia. Pada penelitian terdahulu terkait migrasi (Prima & Khoirunurrofik, 2019;Tiwari, 2017;Wajdi et al, 2015;, belum ditemukan adanya penelitian yang menghubungkan desentralisasi khususnya waktu pelaksanaan pilkada sebagai salah satu faktor yang mungkin memengaruhi perubahan pola migrasi di Indonesia. Selain itu, belum ditemukan adanya penelitian yang menganalisis migrasi secara agregat pada level kabupaten/kota dengan menggunakan data migrasi per semester.…”

Differences in migration flow between regions suggest a gap in development, such as amenities and public goods provision. Indonesia has decentralized to reduce this gap, including through direct election at the regional level (pilkada). The elected leader can provide public goods and services according to people’s needs and preferences. A change in policy direction related to amenities and the provision of public goods from local government will occur at the election time. This influences different migration patterns. This study specifies and estimates a panel model for inter-municipal outmigration in Indonesia during the elections period using Indonesia’s 514 municipal migration data between 2014 and 2018 from the Ministry of Home Affairs; we show that throughout the observed year our regression analysis demonstrates that there are a strong lead effect and lag effect of local election on the size of outmigration flows. Our findings thus suggest that local election can reduce outmigration flow in a district that went through election by 0.01 percent, due to public anticipation on the new policy direction of the prospective regional head and people tend to wait and see. Other findings suggest that there is a strong lag effect, by 0.02 percent. These results indicate that new policy direction may provide incentives to stay or delay the timing of migration for potential migrant, thus reduce the migration outflow, at least in the short run.Keywords: migration, local election, IndonesiaAbstrakPerbedaan pola migrasi antardaerah menunjukkan adanya kesenjangan pembangunan, salah satunya dari sisi fasilitas serta penyediaan barang dan layanan dasar. Desentralisasi merupakan salah satu upaya Pemerintah Indonesia untuk mengurangi kesenjangan dan mempercepat proses pemerataan pembangunan daerah, di antaranya melalui desentralisasi politik yaitu pemilihan langsung kepala daerah (pilkada). Kepala daerah terpilih diharapkan dapat menghasilkan kebijakan sesuai dengan kebutuhan dan preferensi masyarakatnya. Oleh karena itu, akan ada perubahan arah kebijakan terkait fasilitas dan penyediaan layanan dasar dari pemerintah daerah. Hal ini akan menyebabkan pola migrasi yang berbeda. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pola migrasi keluar antardaerah pada saat pelaksanaan pilkada di Indonesia menggunakan data migrasi per semester tahun 2014-2018 dari Dirjen Kependudukan dan Pencatatan Sipil Kemendagri pada 514 kabupaten/kota. Sepanjang tahun pengamatan, hasil regresi menunjukkan bahwa ada efek antisipasi dan efek lag yang kuat dari pilkada pada arus migrasi keluar. Hasil estimasi menggunakan model panel fixed effect menunjukkan bahwa waktu pelaksanaan pilkada dapat menurunkan arus migrasi keluar pada daerah yang melaksanakan pilkada sebesar 0,01 persen, karena adanya efek antisipasi masyarakat terhadap arah kebijakan baru dari calon kepala daerah dan masyarakat cenderung untuk melakukan wait and see. Hasil estimasi juga menunjukkan bahwa terdapat efek lag yang kuat sebesar 0,02 persen. Hasil ini mengindikasikan bahwa arah kebijakan baru di daerah dapat menjadi insentif untuk menetap atau menunda waktu bermigrasi bagi potensial migran, sehingga menurunkan arus migrasi keluar, setidaknya pada short run.Kata kunci: migrasi, pilkada, Indonesia
