Abstract:
Poverty is one of the problems that often occurs in Indonesia. Therefore, through the Unit Pengelola Kegiatan (UPK), the government made a Simpan Pinjam Perempuan (SPP) program in revolving funds provided without any collateral, so the risk that often occurs is bad credit arrears. This causes a decrease in assets or a deficit and an increasing number of bad debts, so good management and control are needed to reduce the number of complex or uncollectible receivables. The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyze the role of management and control applied by the UPK Ponggok District, Blit

This paper explores the distributional impact of lowering the value-added tax rate for standard-rated items in Tanzania Mainland. Using a static tax-benefit microsimulation model—TAZMOD—which is underpinned by data derived from the Household Budget Survey 2017/18, reductions in value-added taxes from 18 per cent to 17 per cent and 16 per cent are simulated. The revenue losses and impact on poverty are estimated. The rules for direct taxes are then modified in order to identify ways in which the revenue loss caused by the lowering of the standard rate of value-added taxes can be recouped.

Yet while a large national income can result from resource wealth, it can also be associated with acute social inequality and deep poverty—the polar opposite of inclusive development.

By using archaeological and epigraphic evidence it reveals how (i) patterns of labour are proudly claimed, and (ii) non-elite groups are driving (certain sorts of) consumption.

People with disabilities and their families tend to be at disadvantage compared to other households: they are likely to have lower incomes, experience higher poverty rates, and have lower participation outcomes. However, it is argued that current poverty measures underestimate the real poverty levels experienced by people with disabilities. This is because part of their incomes needs to be spent on disability-related goods and services, which inevitably reduces the consumption of other welfare-enhancing items. The implication is that persons with disabilities need to incur higher expenditure t
