| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of per capita income and the level of security
in Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia on the brain drain of Indonesia and to find out how the
impact of brain drain on Indonesia. The research method used is descriptive quantitative and
uses panel data regression analysis. Based on the model specification test that has been
carried out using the Chow test and the Hausman test, both suggest using the fixed effect
model. The results show that the per capita income of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand has a
negative and significant effect on Indonesia's brain drain. The income of the destination area is
a pull factor for the occurrence of brain drain, but if the government has increased domestic
wages, it can reduce brain drain. The level of security in Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia
has a negative and insignificant effect on brain drain in Indonesia, although the level of
security is high in these countries, it does not necessarily guarantee legal protection for
Indonesian workers who work there. If the brain drain continues, it will have a bad impact on
Indonesia. Indonesia will lack a highly educated, expert or skilled workforce, so that Indonesia
will be left far behind other countries in terms of economy, social and knowledge. For this
reason, policies that support the development of domestic human resources are needed | en_US |
