| Summary: | This paper examines the effect of expenditure had been done by
government in education sector on the change of unemployment rate in Indonesia.
The government expenditure on education and the number of school are used as
the proxies of education. GDP and Year dummy variables are included in the
model to look out the trend of unemployment across 33 provinces in Indonesia
during 2000-2009. Using Fixed Effects regression, this study finds that some
variables in education sector may have significant effects on the unemployment
rate. This may imply that the government program in education had given positive
contribution to the effort of unemployment reduction in Indonesia. |
