Daya Tarik Investasi Dan Pungli Di DIY
'Universitas Islam Indonesia (Islamic University of Indonesia)', 2005Co-Authors: Mudrajat K., Rahajeng A.Abstract:This paper attempts to explore to what extent the current regime has changed the investment attractiveness and illegal charges in doing business in Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY). We focus on five Factors that lead to regional investment attractiveness, in particular institutional, social-political, regional economy, labor and productivity, and physical infrastructure Factor. This paper combined KPPOD method to analyze investment attractiveness at regional level and Analytical Hierarchy Proccess (AHP) to examine the business climate in DIY. We find that Noneconomic Factor, rather than economic Factor, constituted a key Factor based on business perspective. The institutional Factor is found as the most important Factor, followed by physical infrastructure, and social political Factor. Interestingly, business community perceived illegal charges persistanly high in DIY, in particular public service, court, and police. Therefore, we argue some suggested corrective actions based the surveys are badly needed for local governments in DIY

Food consumption and demographics in Japan: Implications for an aging population
2026Co-Authors: Mauricio V.l. Bittencourt, Ratapol P. Teratanavat, Wen S. ChernAbstract:This study estimates a cross-sectional model based on the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) to examine the determinants of food consumption patterns in Japan over life-cycle periods. The test of structural changes, the analysis of the effects of demographic characteristics, and the estimation of expenditure and price elasticities are conducted from a random sample of 1,281 households from a Japanese household survey in 1997. Results show that each economic or Noneconomic Factor has a different impact on food consumption over a lifetime. Changes in consumption of some food groups can be explained by price and income effects where others can be explained by demographic characteristics. Financial constraint is not binding and residential location is likely to have little or no impact on predicting consumers' food choices at different periods of their lives. Other key Factors that affect consumption pattern include family size, number of children, lifestyle, and health concern. [EconLit citations: C310, D120, D910.] © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
