Judul: The impact of human resource investment and income transfer on income distribution and poverty in Indonesia
Abstrak: Income distribution disparity and household poverty have been crucial problems in Indonesia. Various efforts have been conducted by the Indonesian government to solve these problems, such as by increasing human resource investment and income transfer to household. The research objectives are to analyze impacts of human resource investment and income transfer to household on income distribution and poverty in Indonesia. It was being analyzed an econometric model, Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model, Beta Distribution Function and Foster-Greer- Thorbecke (FGT) method. Table of Indone sian Input-Output in 2003, Table of Indonesian Social Accounting Matrix in 2003, and database of National Social Economic Survey (SUSENAS) in 2002 were used in the analysis. Policy simulations conducted are (1) human resour ce investment for education and health sectors, and (2) income transfer from government to household group in the rural area.

Judul: The impact of fiscal transfer on poverty in Indonesia : a policy simulation analysis
Abstrak: Poverty has always been a serious prob lem until now, and it is closely related with economic growth and income distribution. Various efforts have been conducted to solve these problems. Fiscal decentralization policy in the form of fiscal transfers may be one of the government policies that ar e directly or indirectly expected to have any impact on poverty in Indonesia. Generally, the study is aimed to analyze (1) factors affecting poverty, and (2) the impact of fiscal transfers on poverty in Indonesia. The model of fiscal transfers and poverty that is designed consists of 6 blocks : fiscal, output, labor, per capita expenditure, income distribution, and poverty. The analysis uses an econometric approach with a simultaneous equations model that is consists of 20 structural equations and 7 ident ity equations. The model is estimated using the 2SLS method and the impact of transfer fiscal is analysed using simulation.

Judul: Sintesis 1-Kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai Prekursor Asam (S)-(+)-(6-Metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat
Abstrak: Senyawa 1-kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai prekursor asam (S)-(+)-(6-metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat disintesis dari bahan awal 2-metoksinaftalena. Tahapan sintesis diawali dengan klorinasi menggunakan 2 jenis pereaksi klorinasi, yakni isosianurat terklorinasi dan NaOCl. Klorinasi dengan isosianurat terklorinasi berhasil menyintesis 1-kloro-2-metoksinaftalena sebagai produk monoklorinasi melalui pencirian dengan kromatograf gas-spektrometer massa (GC-MS). Nisbah konversi produk paling efisien diperoleh pada laju penambahan 2.5 mmol/jam. Sebaliknya, klorinasi dengan NaOCl menghasilkan produk triklorinasi. 1-Kloro-2-metoksinaftalena selanjutnya diasilasi dengan propanoil klorida, tetapi analisis dengan GC menunjukkan bahwa produk asilasi tidak terbentuk. Sistem bebas-air diperlukan untuk keberhasilan proses asilasi tersebut.
