Abstract

This study analyses the effect of foreign tourist expenditure, government expenditure and foreign investment on wage inequality between skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled labour in the Indonesian tourism sector. The study uses time series data with a period of 22 years. The method used is Error Correction Model (ECM). The results of this study indicate that foreign tourist expenditure and government expenditure increase inequality in the short term, but in the long run can reduce wage inequality. Meanwhile, foreign investment increases inequality both in the short and long term.

Bahasa Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis pengaruh pengeluaran wisatawan mancanegara, pengeluaran pemerintah dan investasi asing terhadap ketimpangan upah antara tenaga kerja terampil, semi terampil, dan tidak terampil di sektor pariwisata Indonesia. Penelitian menggunakan data time series dengan periode waktu 22 tahun. Metode yang digunakan adalah Error Correction Model (ECM). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengeluaran wisatawan dan pemerintah meningkatkan ketimpangan dalam jangka pendek, namun dalam jangka panjang mampu menurunkan ketimpangan upah. Investasi asing meningkatkan ketimpangan, baik dalam jangka pendek maupun jangka panjang.
