This study was conducted by its finding that there were inconsistencies and uncorrelated data from the government score-based report about Village Fund, and the public perception of the village fund. This research observes relevance of those numbers using the Impact Assessment concepts. This research can act as a useful insight for the governments, researchers and societies to evaluate the commitment of the government to build Indonesia from village. By using descriptive quantitative research method, this paper critically summarises the government report of the Village Fund by contrasted the priorities target of the fund. From the assessment, it was found that the development of the village facilities, infrastructure, and community empowerment program currently increased, but the village fund still has a problem with its equalisation and utilisation of the fund. In conclusion, the achievement numbers of the village fund do not have any correlation with the poverty reduction, because there are lack of equalisation and perception in some sectors. The perception index does not correlate with the satisfaction index in terms of infrastructure development, and the intervention of the village fund does not have a connection with the understanding of people on the use of the fund.

Development of village fund management is very much needed by the community so that it can be enjoyed by all levels of society in the villages. The seriousness of the government in developing villages is evidenced by the start of allocation of the Village Fund budget for 2015. The allocation of the Village Fund is mandated by Law (Law) Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages and Government Regulation (PP) Number 6 of 2014 concerning Village Funds Sourced from STATE BUDGET. The regulation explained that the administration of the village government adheres to the principle of decentralization and the task of assistance. The principle of decentralization raises village internal funding (Desa APBD), while the principle of co-administration provides an opportunity for Villages to obtain funding sources from the government above it (APBN, Provincial APBD, Regency / City APBD). This study aims to observe what the development of village funds looks like, how they are implemented and the impact of the use of village funds in supporting development activities and community empowerment. The research method used is a qualitative research method that relies on observing places, actors and activities in Konawe Selatan Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province, which was chosen as a case study. Initial observations show that the Village Fund does not have significant results in improving the welfare of the community. These indications are evident in the welfare of the community which has not improved with the existence of the village fund. Therefore it is necessary to develop a good management of village funds to improve the welfare of rural communities, especially in Konawe Selatan District. The output to be achieved is the scientific publication with ISSN Online and the level of technological Readiness that will be achieved 1-3.

Objective - This study attempts to provide comprehensive findings on the impact of several kinds of infrastructural developments and government budgets on specific purposes, as well as agricultural and non-agricultural productions, on poverty alleviation in Indonesia between 2002-2013. Methodology/Technique - This study uses macroeconomic data at a municipal level to provide more precise findings when comparing provincial and national level data. The study uses an adaptation of the theory of international development. Findings - This research shows that electricity and sanitation are more effective at eradicating poverty than water infrastructure. In addition, household access to infrastructure is more effective in combatting poverty than the government budget for infrastructure development. The study also performs correlation matrices, dividing the data into the western and eastern parts of Indonesia, to provide more robust findings. Agricultural production is more effective in the western part of Indonesia, yet non-agricultural production is more relevant towards poverty reduction in the eastern part of Indonesia. Novelty - This study yields some empirical results and conclusions for economic development in Indonesia, finding that the key problem lies in the effectiveness of budget arrangement within the framework of fiscal decentralization.

This research aims to review the implementation of the Village Cash Direct Assistance policy through village head regulations in poverty reduction since the Covid-19 pandemic in Keresek Village of Cibatu Subdistrict, Garut Regency. The Village Cash Direct Assistance (BLT DD) is one of the government's initiatives in providing subsidies to Indonesians in need. Assistance is offered to address the problems caused by the prolonged Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia and worldwide. The Covid-19 pandemic does not only interfere with health that results in death. Pandemics force various activities to be stopped so that the impact is widespread, increasing the number of unemployment, hunger, poverty, etc. For this reason, the government provides funds to the community to suppress the increasing problem.  Implementation of village-level policies using village head regulations is still rare. This research used  qualitative methods using Edward III's policy theory of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Data sources were obtained through interviews and documentation—data analysis by presenting data, reducing data, and withdrawing conclusions. The research result shows that the implementation of Village Cash Direct Assistance in Keresek Village based on Edward III's theory has been implemented judging from the absence of complaints ranging from the data collection process to distribution to recipients under Operational Standard Procedure (OSP).  This research will inform the implementation of policies at the village level made by the village government.   Keywords: Village Fund, Policy, Policy Implementation.

Community empowerment through micro-business development can be an instrument in poverty alleviation. The development of micro-businesses cannot take place by itself, therefore it needs to get financial support from the government. One form of government’s support is the people's business credit (kredit usaha rakyat - KUR) which until now has been running for more than ten years. The purpose of this study was: (1) To determine the impact of the KUR on the micro-business sector; and (2) To determine the impact of the development of micro-businesses on poverty reduction. The type of research used was descriptive with a qualitative approach. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling with a consideration that the informants were considered the most knowledgeable about the object of this research problem (key informants). The informants consisted of officials from the Makassar City Office of Cooperatives and SMEs, business actors, and community leaders. Based on the research conducted, it is known that the KUR has a positive impact on the development of micro-businesses in Makassar City and the development of micro-businesses has a positive impact on poverty alleviation.AbstrakPemberdayaan masyarakat melalui pengembangan usaha mikro dapat menjadi sebuah instrumen dalam penanggulangan kemiskinan.

ABSTRACTThis research is about the Implementation of Village Ministerial Regulation, PDTT Number 21 of 2015 in the utilization of Village Funds for Community Empowerment in Embacang Kelekar Village and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District of Muara Enim Regency in 2016. The research aims to find out the implementation of Village Ministerial Regulation, PDTT Number 21 of 2015 in utilizing village funds for community empowerment in Embacang Kelekar Village and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District Muara Enim Regency in 2016 and what factors are the obstacles to the success of the Implementation of the Village Minister Regulation, PDTT No. 21 2015 in Utilizing Village Funds for Community Empowerment in both villages. This study uses qualitative research methods with a descriptive approach. The data used are primary data and secondary data. The results of this study, in terms of the many developing programs, of course the government of Embacang Kelekar Village is better than Suban Baru Village because in Embacang Kelekar Village out of 8 groups of goat management only 2 groups failed and 6 other groups succeeded. Whereas in Suban Baru Village, out of 3 programs, only 1 group developed and the rest failed. This indicates that the impact in Embacang Kelekar Village is better than in Suban Baru Village. However, as a whole, when viewed from compliance and smooth routines, functions such as supervision are still not good in both villages. Therefore, when referring to the theory that is used as a reference, namely Ripley and Franklin's Theory, which states that even though the level of compliance is high, routine functions can be carried out smoothly, policy implementation can have a positive impact. However, if one of the three dimensions is flawed, the implementation of the policy is said to have yet to succeed. So the conclusion that can be drawn is the implementation of the Minister of Village Regulation, PDTT No. 21 of 2015 in the utilization of village funds for community empowerment in the Village of Embacang Kelekar and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District of Muara Enim Regency in 2016 can still be said to be unsuccessful.

The Village Fund is one of the policies made by the government to alleviate poverty in the village and strengthen village autonomy. The use of Village Funds is used in the field of village development and the field of community empowerment, of the total Village Funds channeled to the Village 75 percent for the development sector while for the community empowerment sector only 25 percent so that the way to overcome poverty is still relatively small. The objectives to be achieved in this study are to find out about poverty reduction policies through the Village Fund and strengthening village autonomy in Prabumulih City. The research was conducted in the villages of Jungai, Sinar Rambang, Rambang Senuling, Karangan, Talang Batu, Kemang Tanduk. The method in this study is a qualitative method using Focus Group Disussion (FGD), interviews with parties related to poverty alleviation issues (officials of the Village Consultative Body, Village Chief, Village Treasurer, Village Secretary, Planning Head, Head of Public division, head of finance division, Head of Government, Head of People's Welfare, Head of construction division, community leaders). The results of this study are that the Prabumulih City Government has implemented policies by gradually channeling Village Funds based on village performance. However, villages in Prabumulih City have not fully focused on poverty alleviation efforts. This can be seen from the APB Village Responsibility Report at the expenditure point in the field of community empowerment which is used for “posyandu” empowerment activities, Up2K, SisKeuDes training activities. Furthermore, the number of poor people in Prabumulih City is still high, namely BPS data of 43,464 people.  Keywords: Poverty Alleviation Policies, Village Funds, Village Autonomy

Abstract : ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) has the aims to transform ASEAN into a stable, prosperous, and highly competitive region through equitable economic development, poverty reduction and socio-economic disparities. As a consequence, since 2015, ASEAN becomes region with free trade of goods, services, investment, and skilled labor. The impact of the implementation of MEA is shown by the price and quality of goods and services that become competitive, affecting domestic products and services from Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), as well as farmers. The government has sought to support SMEs and farmers through direct and indirect assistance. Land is the sector that has the most influential effect among other sectors to provoke economic growth of SMEs and farmers, because land has the function as natural resource as well as work location. To optimize this, land policies are needed to regulate land use arrangement, land asset legalization, control of land utilization and community empowerment through access reform. Asset legalization for SMEs and farmers, as well as asset legalization for infrastructures. Land use and land utilization control was implemented to optimize large-scale agricultural area by set up cooperation scheme with local people. Community empowerment was implemented through access reform, prioritized to the regions that have leading commodities or products. Keywords : competition, land use arrangement, assets legalization, land utilization, community empowermentIntisari : Pembentukan Masyarakat Ekonomi ASEAN (MEA) bertujuan untuk mentransformasikan ASEAN menjadi kawasan yang stabil, makmur, dan sangat kompetitif melalui ekonomi pembangunan yang adil, berkurangnya kemiskinan dan kesenjangan sosial-ekonomi. Sebagai konsekuensinya, ASEAN menjadi daerah dengan pergerakan bebas barang, jasa, investasi, tenaga kerja terampil, dan aliran modal sejak tahun 2015.Dampak pemberlakuan MEA adalah terjadinya persaingan harga dan kualitas barang dan jasa yang berpengaruh terhadap produk dan jasa domestik yang umumnya dilakukan oleh pelaku Usaha Kecil dan Menengah (UKM) dan petani. Pemerintah telah berupaya membantu pelaku UKM dan petani melalui bantuan langsung dan tidak langsung. Sektor pertanahan adalah sektor yang paling berpengaruh terhadap tumbuhnya perekonomian pelaku UKM dan petani. Hal tersebut karena tanah merupakan sumberdaya alam sekaligus ruang tempat berusaha. Agar dapat membantu pelaku UKM dan petani diperlukan langkah–langkah kebijakan pertanahan berupa penatagunaan tanah, legalisasi aset, pengendalian pemanfaatan tanah, dan pemberdayaan masyarakat melalui akses reform. Legalisasi aset bagi pelaku UKM dan petani serta legalisasi aset untuk infrastruktur. Pengendalian pemanfaatan tanah adalah untuk mengoptimalkan tanah pertanian berskala besar melalui kerjasama dengan penduduk sekitar. Pemberdayaan masyarakat dilaksanakan dengan menfasilitasi UKM dan petani untuk memperoleh akses permodalan dimana prioritas ditujukan pada lokasi–lokasi yang memiliki produk atau komoditi unggulan. Kata Kunci : kompetisi, penatagunaan tanah, legalisasi aset, pemanfaatan tanah, pemberdayaan masyarakat

Subject. We assess the impact of tight financial and monetary policy of the government of the Russian Federation and the Bank of Russia on the level of household income and poverty reduction in Russia. Objectives. The purpose of the study is to analyze the results of financial and monetary policy in Russia and determine why the situation with household income and poverty has not changed for the recent six years, and the GDP growth rate in Russia is significantly lagging behind the global average. Methods. The study employs methods of analysis of scientific and information base, and synthesis of obtained data. The methodology and theoretical framework draw upon works of domestic and foreign scientists on economic and financial support to economy and population’s income. Results. We offer measures for liberalization of the financial and monetary policy of the government and the Central Bank to ensure changes in the structure of the Russian economy. The proposed alternative economic and financial policy of the State will enable the growth of real incomes of the population, poverty reduction by half by 2024, and annual GDP growth up to 6 per cent. Conclusions. It is crucial to change budget priorities, increase the salaries of public employees, introduce a progressive tax rate for individuals; to reduce the key rate to the value of annual inflation and limit the bank margin. The country needs a phased program to increase the population's income, which will ensure consumer demand.
