The Impact of Infrastructure on Economic Growth in West Sumatra: A Dynamic Panel Analysis

Voby Vandeska Putra — 2026-03-02

This study investigates the effects of basic infrastructure, educational infrastructure, and the Human Development Index (HDI) on district and municipal economic growth in West Sumatra Province, Indonesia. The analysis encompasses road infrastructure, access to clean water, electricity, telecommunications, and educational participation from primary to senior secondary levels, with HDI serving as a proxy for human capital. Panel data covering 19 districts and municipalities over the period 2015–2024 are employed, obtained from Statistics Indonesia. To control for endogeneity, unobserved heterogeneity, and growth dynamics, the model is estimated using the two-step dynamic panel System Generalized Method of Moments (System GMM). The findings reveal strong growth persistence, indicating that current regional economic performance is significantly shaped by past outcomes. Primary and senior secondary educational infrastructure, together with HDI, exert positive and statistically significant effects on economic growth. Conversely, water infrastructure shows a negative and significant association, while road infrastructure displays a negative but insignificant relationship. Electricity, telecommunications, and junior secondary education infrastructure present positive yet statistically insignificant effects. These results suggest that infrastructure expansion alone is insufficient to stimulate economic growth; its effectiveness critically depends on service quality, utilization efficiency, and complementarities with human capital. This study contributes empirical evidence on heterogeneous infrastructure effects in subnational dynamic panel settings and underscores the importance of integrating infrastructure quality improvements with human capital development to achieve sustainable and inclusive regional growth.

Queues, Service Efficiency, and Social Proof: Multi-Site Non-Participant Observation of Mie Gacoan

Rooswita Loing — 2026-03-31

Queues in budget-priced food-service retail commonly arise when customer arrivals exceed service capacity during peak hours. This study examines queuing as a dual phenomenon: an indicator of service-process efficiency and a form of social proof that may shape customers’ decisions to join, remain in, or abandon a queue. Non-participant observations were conducted at three Mie Gacoan branches in North Sulawesi (Manado, Tondano, and Airmadidi) across nine weekend sessions (midday peak 11:00–13:30 WITA; evening peak 18:00–21:30 WITA). Data were compiled from field notes, time logs of estimated waiting times, service-flow mapping using a service blueprint, and anonymized documentation of service artefacts. The findings indicate a multi-stage queue, with bottlenecks shifting across the cashier, preparation, and handover phases. Manado exhibited the highest intensity (maximum queue length: 95 customers; maximum waiting time: 60 minutes) and the greatest number of abandonment events (19), whereas Tondano showed lower levels (62 customers; 42 minutes; 9) and Airmadidi fell in between (78 customers; 50 minutes; 13). Sessions with longer waiting times were associated with higher levels of abandonment; however, persistent queue density during the evening peak suggests that the queue did not subside to low levels over the observation period despite rising time costs. Overall, the results provide descriptive evidence consistent with P1–P3 concerning multi-stage queue dynamics, the influence of service-design variation on where congestion accumulates, and the trade-off between time costs and the social-proof value of queuing in customers’ decisions.

Fomo, Virality, and Saturation: A Netnographic Study of Digital Consumer Behavior towards the Mixue Brand in Indonesia

Sandra J.R Kainde — 2026-03-31

This study aims to analyze digital consumer behavior toward the Mixue brand in Indonesia within the dynamics of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), virality, and saturation through a netnographic approach. Employing a qualitative design, this research uses netnography to examine digital interaction traces within Mixue's online ecosystem in Indonesia, including posts, comments, memes, conversations, and other forms of symbolic participation on social media. The findings indicate that digital consumer behavior toward Mixue develops along a dynamic trajectory. In the initial phase, FOMO stimulates consumer engagement, as Mixue is positioned as a social experience that must be followed in order not to be left behind in the flow of digital trends. This engagement subsequently evolves into virality, sustained through electronic word of mouth (eWOM), meme production, collective humor, and the symbolic participation of netizens. However, the continuous intensity of exposure and symbolic reproduction does not necessarily strengthen affection toward the brand; instead, it generates saturation that shifts engagement from enthusiasm to critical evaluation. In addition, the negotiation of trust and legitimacy suggests that the relationship between digital consumers and the brand is shaped not only by trend-driven logic but also by the need for validation and a sense of security. These findings confirm that digital consumer behavior toward a viral brand is a relational, symbolic, and constantly evolving cultural process.
