Abstract:
This paper aimed to provide the results of analysis on total and flow-on multipliers, sectorspecific, and spatial-specific multipliers in Nusa Tenggara Island's economy, mainly for planning and evaluation purposes. These Islands consist of three provinces: Bali, West Nusa Tenggara and East Nusa Tenggara. The model employed was Inter-Island Input-Output Model (IIIOM) developed using new hybrid procedures with special attention on Island economy. Data used for model were updated Indonesian data for the year of 2015. The results show that firstly, the important sectors of Nusa Tenggara Island economy could be based on total multipliers and flow-on effects of output, income and employment. Secondly, important economic sectors could be based on sector-specific multipliers effects; multipliers that occurred in own sector and other sectors. Thirdly, important economic sectors could be based on spatial-specific multipliers; multipliers that occurred both in own region and other regions. Fourthly, important economic sectors could be based on spatial distribution of flow-on; flow-on effects that occurred in own region as well as in other regions.
