Indonesia has infrastructure constraints, such as the need for food, health, and education. Limitation in improving the infrastructure has raised many problems, such as bad nutrition and the spreading of disease. In return, this condition has caused low life quality of Indonesian people compared to other Asean countries. The richness in nature resources has not yet became the basic element to develop the man resources in competing with other countries. The gap between the rich and poor, East and West, rural and urban, local people and outsider, gender imbalance became another constraints in building human capital in Indonesia.

In the neoclassical belief, capital flows downhill from rich to poor countries as a consequence of capital endowment variation. In contrast to the neoclassical belief, Lucas found evidence that capital tends to flow uphill. This paper investigates the intra ASEAN-5 capital flows. Using panel estimation, we found that marginal product of capital, human capital, total factor productivity growth, and the quality of institutions appear as determinants for the capital flow from Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand to Singapore as a host country. On the contrary, the capital flow from Singapore to other ASEAN countries as host countries is encouraged only by the quality of institutions, human capital as well as per capita GDP. The result shows that Lucas variables emerge as determinants for the uphill and downhill capital flow in ASEAN-5. In the meantime, marginal product of capital that represents neoclassical variable appears as the determinant for uphill capital flow from other ASEAN countries to Singapore. This gives significant insight that Lucas variables emerge as companion to the neoclassical variables in explaining intra ASEAN capital flow

Zakat is the third of the five pillars of Islamic faith, relating to wealth and welfare of the society that helps to close the gap between the poor and the rich. The efficient and systematic zakat management is able to propel it’s potential as an instrument of human developments especially among Muslims. The optimum utilization of zakat funds is essential to improving the quality and potential of every Muslim. In Malaysia, zakat is administrated by the Islamic Religious Council (IRC) in every state. The IRC is responsible for determining the beneficiary's qualification and the type of relief that is appropriate based on the background of each recipient so that the relief can be utilized to fulfill their needs. This study aims to assess the potential of zakat in developing the quality of Muslims in Malaysia by highlighting the practice of each IRC in distributing relief to each qualified zakat recipient. The distribution statistics and the form of programs provided by the IRC were analyzed descriptively to see the potential of zakat itself practically in improving the quality of Muslims. The study found that the IRC has provided various programs aimed at improving the quality of asnaf through equitable distribution of economics, social welfare distribution, human capital production and upgrading of education. Thus, every Muslim, especially zakat payers, should take the opportunity to equally engage with the IRC to ensure that zakat funds can be optimized for the developments of Muslims in Malaysia.

The quality of human capital strongly determines the economic development of a country. Human capital can be shaped by the level of education and public health. This research analyzes the development and competition of human capital of Indonesia and other 5 ASEAN countries from 1985-2016. The problem of this study is whether human capital can be a significant determinant of economic welfare (per capita income) in ASEAN countries. The research used a regression analysis of panel data (all countries) and multiple linear regression (for each country). The independent variables are life expectancy, population growth rate, working-age population, and infant mortality rate per 1,000 live births. The results show that in general, all independent variables have a significant effect on GDP per capita. Nevertheless, an analysis in each country shows different levels and direction of influence. The quality of the human capital of Indonesia is still at the middle level among ASEAN countries. Therefore a variety of efforts to improve the quality of human capital needs to be done by the government and the people of Indonesia to win the competition between ASEAN countries.

The paper analyzes the life quality of the rural and urban population of Russia. The purpose of the study is to obtain quantitative estimates of the prox-imity of the main aspects of the life quality in the city and the countryside. The empirical base is the microdata of statistical observations of Rosstat at the end of 2018. The life quality is determined through a combination of financial capabilities and needs of the individual, as well as the state of the external environment. The financial condition of an individual characterizes the possibility of consum-ing a good, which may not be realized due to the absence or non-articulation of the corresponding need. The state of the external environment charac-terizes the physical (technical) availability of goods, their variety and quality. It is shown the availability of benefits to the rural population associated with the quality of housing and the environment that is higher than in the city. A high level of consumption of a number of expensive goods and services (TVs, mobile phones, cars) has been established, which, however, is combined with their lower quality and less variety of choices (brands). It is shown that the limited physical (technical) accessibility of modern innovative goods and services is overcome more difficult and slower, and in the foreseeable future it is impossible to expect a convergence of the life quality in cities and villages in this aspect.

The article is devoted to assessment of quantitative and qualitative human capital reproduction in energy-efficient economy provided by research of correlation between dynamics of energy consumption and transformation of life quality. The purpose of the research is to assess the role of energy-efficient economy in shaping of the conditions for human capital reproduction as a way of investment into its qualitative development. To achieve this purpose transformation of traditional spheres of sustainable development together with the implementation of the energy-efficient economy approaches in terms of maintaining of quality of human capital are considered. We conduct a study comparing several dependencies: development of productive powers - increasing requirements for the quality of human capital; ensuring effective reproduction - improving the quality of life, improving the quality of life associated with the economic system; GDP – energy consumption; GDP - CO2 emissions. The object of the study is dynamics of indicators characterizing the above dependencies, a number of the countries – members of the OECD – having an expanded human capital reproduction. Examined countries demonstrate correlation between energy efficiency of economy and quality of human capital with rather a wide variability of chosen indicators. Results of the research may become a base for forecast of development of studied indicators and their factors.

The goal of this study is to identify the determinants of foreign direct investment in members of ASEAN countries (will be known as ASEAN-9 and ASEAN-7 from 1990 to 2017 by using Pooled Least Square as the model.The results show that market size, trade openness, infrastructure, research & development, and inflation have positive effects on inward FDI which can be considered as determinants of FDI. On the other hand, human capital and real interest rates show a negative sign.This study also discussed the FDI trend after the global finance crisis in 2008. The results indicate that the annual trend for FDI after 2008 is positive, which means there is no big impact from the global financial crisis of 2008 on FDI inflows.Based on the results, GDP, infrastructures, and trade openness become the important factors to attract foreign investors. Therefore, government can improve through policies, such as easing trade procedures, or improving the quantity and quality of the infrastructure.The difference finding is found on the negative result of human capital effect on inward FDI. Thus, the quality of human resources still needs improvement because it can improve thelow-tech into high-tech destination countries for FDI.

The authors offer conceptual development model of population’s quality of life in the region reflecting interrelations between the public and private investments in improvement of quality of life, quality of life, regional human capital, and social and economic development of the region. The peculiarity of the model is its multiperiodicity, which is used to reflect the influence of certain parameters of the system on other parameters in the dynamic mode. The authors distinguish sets of indicators reflecting population’s quality of life, social and economic development of the region, regional human capital, and demography of the region, as well as describe the factors influencing the formation of the quality of life in the region, and the factors, which are influenced by the quality of life. The following channels of influence are defined, namely, the effect of different areas of investments on the indicators of quality of life of the population and the region's human capital; the influence of indicators of population’s quality of life on regional human capital; the effect of quality of life on indicators of socio-economic development of the region; and the influence of indicators of quality of life and development of the region on demographic parameters of the region. The cluster analysis of the Russian regions in terms of the quality of life of the population is carried out. In total, 32 indicators reflecting the quality of life over 2011-2017 in 81 regions of Russia were used as a data set, which was processed and analyzed by means of STATISTICA software package. The article presents qualitative description of the constructed clusters, defines their characteristic features and differences. In the future, in order to operationalize the conceptual model, it is necessary to carry out a quantitative description of the channels of influence in the form of econometric models.

AbstractThe National Education System has grown so rapidly over time. A variety of efforts have been made to build every prosperous, dignified Indonesian human being, so that the quality of Indonesian thinking is progressing. The ASEAN Economic Community which has been launched since 2015 has resulted in free competition, both in trade, employment, and there is free competition for educators in ASEAN countries. Besides that, Indonesian education is faced with challenges and developments in the times, where the culture between ASEAN countries has no limits, this is the challenge faced when implementing the Asean Economic Comunity (ASEAN Economic Community) MEA. Indonesia as a country in the ASEAN region must prepare domestic educators to have professionalism and character so that they can compete with the AEC. Educators must be aware of the essence of the existence of their profession, continue to struggle to make changes in order to realize professionalism with noble character. Efforts made in preparing professional educators to face the challenges of the AEC must touch the most fundamental aspects of changing their competencies, namely the mindset. A student must be more advanced and innovative in developing his learning so that he can change the mindset of students to do agent of change. Through this mindset educators will become professional and characterized so that they can compete and compete in the MEA era. Keywords: MEA, Changes in Mindset, Professional Educators
