"There has been increasing role of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in developing countries since the 1980s. Interestingly, FDI is not only expected to bring direct effects, but also indirect effects or "spillovers" to a hosti economy. This paper aims to investigate FDI spillovers in the Indonesia's chemical industry, whether domestic firms benefit or not from foreign invesment. A stochastic production frontier approach is adopted to a firm level panel data for the periode of 1998-2000. There are three important findings. First, there is a clear hierarchy of technical efficiency of chemical firms based on their ownership status. Foreign owned firms have the highest level of technical efficiency, followed by joint ventures and domestic firms. Second, even though this paper confirms positive spillovers in the industry, the magnitude is relatively small. It shows that the Indonesian chemical industry has not yet been able to take full advantage of foreign presence. Third, a wider technology gap between domestic and foreign firms results in a higher spillovers. Findings of this paper imply that more FDI inflow into the Indonesia's chemical industry may benefit the industry. However, understanding the process of how the foreign presence affects domestic firms is important to take full advantage of the foreign presence."

"Penelitian ini melihat korelasi antara kemitraan dan efisiensi teknis perusahaan pada Industri Mikro dan Kecil (IMK). Latar belakang bahwa IMK kerap menemui berbagai kendala akibat keterbatasan sumberdaya produksi, membuat production frontier sulit dicapai sehingga perusahaan kurang efisien secara teknis. Salah satu strategi perusahaan untuk mengatasi masalah ini adalah dengan bermitra. Maka, penelitian ini melihat apakah kemitraan yang dilakukan tersebut berkorelasi positif terhadap efisiensi teknis. Estimasi dilakukan dengan metode maximum likelihood secara stokastik menggunakan data Survei Industri Mikro dan Kecil Tahun 2014, BPS. Kemitraan usaha sebagai variabel utama diukur dengan indeks menggunakan teknik Principal Component Analysis (PCA) untuk merepresentasikan variasi kemitraan yang ada dalam perusahaan. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa korelasi positif antara kemitraan usaha dengan efisiensi teknis perusahaan terbukti pada industri mikro, namun tidak pada industri kecil. Perbedaan korelasi ini sangat tergantung pada skala usaha. Pertama dari sisi atribut spesifik perusahaan, seperti tingkat pendidikan pemilik usaha dan struktur tenaga kerja, dan kedua dari sisi perilaku oportunistik perusahaan yang mempengaruhi kualitas atau kinerja kemitraan.

This study looks on the correlation between interfirm cooperation and firms tecnical efficiency in Small Medium Industry (SMI). The background is that SMI often meets obstacle caused by their limited production resources that make production frontier is hard to achieve, thus create less technical efficiency for the firm. One of the firms strategy to overcome this problem is by making interfirm cooperation. Threfore, the study overlook whether the cooperation has a positive correlation with the technical efficiency. Estimation done by maximum likelihood stochastically using data from Survei Industri Mikro dan Kecil Year 2014 by BPS. Interfirm cooperation as the main variable measured by index using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to represent the variation of cooperation inside the firms. Result shows that positive correlation is found between interfirm cooperation and technicall efficiency on micro industry level, yet not on the small industry. It shows that correlation is depend on the size of the firm. First, from specific atributes of the firm such as education level of firms owner and labor structure. Second, it also depend on the opportunistic behaviour of the firms that affect the quality of the interfirm cooperation."

"Abstract. Inefficiency is one of major causes of low performance in Indonesian rice production. This study measures the technical efficiency of rice production in five Indonesian regions and examines its determining factors. A stochastic frontier production function is used to reflect best practice production given certain levels of input use with equal amounts of technology. Unbalanced panel data on input-output rice production consisting of 358 farm operation in 2003, 2008 and 2013 are employed for estimating frontier production functions. The results indicate that variation in rice production across the five main regions is due primarily to variation in technical efficiency. Sources of variation within technical inefficiency include household characteristics, composition of labour and tractor use. Of the five regions investigated, rice production on Java is the most efficient. Technical efficiency of rice production increases over time in all five regions but remains low overall. This study concludes that there is considerable room for productivity improvements in Indonesian rice-based agribusiness through increases in technical efficiency.Abstrak. Inefisiensi merupakan salah satu penyebab utama rendahnya kinerja agribisnis bebasis padi di Indonesia. Studi ini mengukur efisiensi teknis produksi padi di lima wilayah Indonesia dan meneliti faktor-faktor yang menentukan efisiensi. Fungsi produksi frontier stokastik digunakan untuk menduga produksi terbaik pada tingkat penggunaan input dan teknologi tertentu dengan jumlah yang sama. Data panel input-output produksi padi yang terdiri dari 358 agribisnis padi pada tahun 2003, 2008 dan 2013 digunakan untuk memperkirakan fungsi produksi frontier. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa variasi produksi padi di lima wilayah utama terutama disebabkan oleh perbedaan efisiensi teknis. Sumber variasi dalam inefisiensi teknis meliputi karakteristik rumah tangga petani, komposisi tenaga kerja dan traktor digunakan. Dari lima wilayah penelitian, produksi padi di Jawa adalah yang paling efisien. Efisiensi teknis produksi padi meningkat dari waktu ke waktu di semua lima wilayah namun tetap rendah secara keseluruhan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa ada cukup peluang untuk memperbaiki produktivitas agribisnis padi Indonesia melalui peningkatan efisiensi teknis."

"The objective of the study is to understand the correlation between inter-firm cooperation and firm technical efficiency. It based on the background of the difficulties and limited production resources faced by micro and small industry (MSI) that impede them to move towards production frontier that makes firm less efficient technically. Therefore, this study will discuss whether cooperation conducted by MSI will bring improved technical efficiency. Estimation is taken by using maximum likelihood method on firm production function stochastically. Using data from micro and Small Industry Survey Year.. 2004 published by National Bureau of Statistic of Indonesia, inter-firm cooperation is measured through index with Principal Component Analysis which reflects the degree of the cooperation. As the first study in Indonesia for the topic, result shows a positive correlation between inter-firm cooperation and technical efficiency in micro industry, otherwise the correlation is not found in small industry. This indicate that inter-firm cooperation is not "panacea" to attain technical efficiency, yet it is depending on the size the firm."
