The study examined the role played by HCD in the economic development of Kenya between 2002 and 2014 by interrogating the development models adopted by South Korea and Singapore as a benchmark to determine the gaps in the model adopted by Kenya. Despite Kenya, Singapore and South Korea exhibiting similar income levels in the 1960s, the gap between Kenya’s economic growth and those of South Korea and Singapore has widened tremendously since independence in 1963. Kenya has recorded low Gross Domestic Product (GDP) compared to the two Asian countries. The researcher relied on secondary data sourced from national, regional and international websites and organizations. The data collected was corroborated with data sourced from government offices and websites. Data sets from the three countries was used to examine the extent to which HCD practices affect economic growth for the purposes of deriving the best HCD practices from South Korea and Singapore that influence economic growth. The design therefore necessitated causality analysis using the Granger Causality Test and correlational and regression analysis that facilitated the measurement, development and assessment of the statistical significance of the causal relationships among the study variables. The model variables included GDP as the response variable explained by six predictor variables; government expenditure on education, human development index, average years of schooling as a proxy for percentage of population that has attained education, patents filed by the countries, government effectiveness and government expenditure on research and development. Findings revealed that HCD had a great influence on economic development of a country. Findings further revealed that whereas human development index was found to be positively correlated to economic growth in South Korea and Singapore, it was negatively (inversely) correlated to economic growth in Kenya. To achieve sustained economic growth, the study recommends that the provision of education be strengthened to ensure successful implementation of Competency Based Curriculum with the government laying more emphasis on applied R&D.

Physical Investment

In this current globalization era, human resources investment is necessary for each country to improve the index of human development and economic growth, many countries have succeeded in economic growth by relying on human resources despite not having abundant natural resources. However, the success of resource investment is also strongly influenced by the availability of supporting facilities and infrastructure. Based on data of physical and non-physical investments of government expenditure in education and health sectors from 2007-2017, shows a positive trend with relatively increasing value. Meanwhile, based on data of human development index progress in Pekanbaru city in recent years showed a relatively declining value. This contradicts the theory of endogenous romer which explained that when the government or private sectors invest in human resources, it will encourage the improvement of human resources quality that reflects the progress of human development index. This study uses secondary data, namely government physical and non-physical expenditure data in the field of education and health in Pekanbaru City on Regional Budget in 2010-2017. The independent variable is government physical and non-physical expenditure in education and health sectors. While the dependent variable is the Human Development Index. The analysis method used is OLS (Ordinary Least Square) method where the data used are analyzed quantitatively using statistical analysis, namely multiple linear regression equations. Based on the results of research, government physical expenditure in education and government non-physical expenditure in the health sector does not significantly influence the human development index in Pekanbaru City. While government non-physical expenditure in education and government physical expenditure in health significantly affect the human development index in Pekanbaru City.

This study examined the impact of human resources development on economic growth in Nigeria from 1980 to 2019. To achieve this objective, data were collected on the real gross domestic product, government expenditure on education, government expenditure on health and human development index from Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical bulletin, World Bank -World Development Indicator and UNDP. The study adopted the Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test, Johansen Co-integration test and Error Correction Mechanism (ECM) methods of econometric to analyse the collected data. Evidence from the findings revealed that all the variables were individually integrated of Order One and have a long-run relationship. The parsimonious ECM result revealed that an increase in government expenditure on education, government expenditure on health, as well as human development index, do not significantly increase economic growth in Nigeria during the period of study. The study concluded that human resources development via public spending in the education sector, health sector, as well as an increase in human development index remains crucial in the process of achieving sustainable economic growth in Nigeria. Based on these findings, the study recommended among others that crucial effort should be made by the government in channelling more funds to the health sector in order to improve health standards and reduce the mortality rate of the citizens since a healthy population and workforce is a major ingredient for rapid and sustainable productivity and growth. Enough funds should be allocated to education for proper utilization of potential productive and social benefits that will help to boost the real sector of the economy.

The importance of government expenditure on the development of the economy cannot be underrated. As such, the study explored the effect of government expenditure on economic development of selected West African countries (2000-2018) using secondary data from World Bank and United Nations Development Annual report. The research work chose five West African countries as its sample and used Random effect of the panel analysis to test the effect of the explanatory variables (government expenditure on health, defence and education) on the dependent variable, economic development (proxy by Human Development Index). The finding of the study shows that government expenditure had insignificant but positive effect on human development index of selected West African countries within the timeframe of the study. The study therefore recommends among others that Government should increase its expenditure on education, health and security, tackle corruption and waste. West African countries should also ensure that funds allocated to these sectors are not diverted or funneled into private pockets.
