Abstract

Using a recursive‐dynamic multiregional computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling approach, we introduced a set of sector‐specific labour productivity shocks representing the effect of Industry 4.0 on the Indonesian economy. The results suggest that Indonesia’s long‐term economic growth will increase from 5.2% per year to 5.7% per year. In terms of output expansion, the top gainer would be the machinery and motor vehicles sector, and to a lesser extent, finance, whereas low gainers include extractive and agricultural sectors and food processing industries. Region‐wise, Java, the already advanced region, will be the primary beneficiary of the growth, while other islands will not benefit as much. There is not much risk of unfavourable distributional effect. However, agriculture workers will lose out compared with workers in other sectors, particularly those with intermediate skill levels. En este estudio se analiza la introducción de una serie de perturbaciones de la productividad laboral específicas del sector que representan el efecto de la Industria 4.0 en la economía de Indonesia, a través de un enfoque de modelización de equilibrio general computable (EGC) recursivo‐dinámico de carácter multirregional. Los resultados sugieren que el crecimiento económico de Indonesia a largo plazo aumentará del 5,2% anual al 5,7%. En cuanto a la expansión de la producción, el sector que más ganaría es el de la maquinaria y los vehículos de motor y, en menor medida, el financiero, mientras que los que menos ganarían son los sectores extractivo y agrícola y las industrias de transformación de alimentos. Por regiones, Java, una región ya avanzada, sería la principal beneficiaria del crecimiento, mientras que otras islas no se beneficiarían tanto. Apenas hay riesgo de un efecto distributivo desfavorable. Sin embargo, los trabajadores de la agricultura saldrían perdiendo en comparación con los de otros sectores, sobre todo aquellos con un nivel de cualificación intermedio. 多地域再帰的動的な計算可能一般均衡 (computable general equilibrium: CGE)モデリングの手法を用いて、インドネシア経済に対するインダストリー4.0の影響を表すセクター別の労働生産性ショックのデータを導入し、分析を行った。この結果から、インドネシアの長期的な経済成長率は、年間5.2%から5.7%に上昇することが予想される。生産量の拡大では、最も伸び率が大きいであろうセクターは機械と自動車で、金融はそれよりも伸び率は小さいものの拡大することが予想される。一方で、伸び率が小さいのは、天然資源採取、農業及び食品加工業であった。地域的には、すでに先進的な地域であるジャワ島が成長の主要な受益者となり、他の島はそれほどベネフィットが得られない。不利な分配効果のリスクは多くはない。しかし、農業労働者は、他のセクターの労働者、特に中程度の技能レベルの労働者と比較して後れを取ることになる。
