EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND POVERTY LEVELS IN PRO V INSI KALIMANTAN TIMUR

Poverty is one factor that concerns a country not least in Indonesia in general and East Kalimantan Province in particular. With the increasing number of poor people in an area being a bad impact on the performance of the government itself, so the government must be able to work to overcome and reduce the number of poor people in the area, one of which is providing opportunities for broad work for the community, the purpose of this study is to analyze several factors that can be used in reducing poverty. In this study there are several independent variables used including infrastructure spending, investment, transfer funds and economic growth and with the dependent variables which are dependent on employment opportunities and poverty levels. In this study using a tool such as SPSS version 22 where to see the direct or indirect relationship between the independent variables on the dependent variable. The analysis test results obtained that the independent variable as a whole has an influence on the employment variable and also on the poverty level variable, the independent variable has a positive and significant effect indirectly on the poverty level variable with the employment opportunity variable as an intermediary.


Infrastructure Expenditures
Infrastructure is a concept of infrastructure development by taking into account the balance between meeting infrastructure needs in the present and the future ( Iwan PK, et al, 2008 ). Infrastructure is a (physical) support facility so that regional economic development can be realized. According to a scientific study conducted by Friawan (2008) it is explained that infrastructure is very important in economic integration, namely: first , the availability of good infrastructure is the main engine triggering economic growth. Second , to obtain the full benefits of integration, the availability of infrastructure networks is very important in expediting trade and investment activities. Third , attention to infrastructure improvement is also important to overcome the economic development gap between regions. With the improvement of infrastructure, it is expected to facilitate the mobility of economic work between regions, which in turn will attract investors to invest in the region, which means it will create new job opportunities because of the emergence of new activity units. In the end, infrastructure improvements will improve development conditions. Improved development conditions will have an effect on increasing people's welfare and poverty alleviation. Haughwout (2001) in his research stated that infrastructure can significantly improve social welfare. According to Kurniawan (2014) in his study stating that road infrastructure affects the welfare of the community, the condition of the road surface very significantly influences the improvement of welfare in an area.
Infrastructure expenditure in this study is the total regional expenditure used for the development purposes of the Province of East Kalimantan expressed in rupiah units.

Investation
Investment is the association of sources in the long run to generate profits in the future (Mulyadi, 2001 ). Sukirno (2000) explains that foreign capital can enter a country in the form of private capital and state capital. Private foreign capital is divided into three types, namely direct investment, indirect investment and export loans. Direct investment means the flow of private capital from developed countries to developing countries and supervises the assets they have in the recipient countries. Whereas indirect investment, better known as portfolio investment, is investment in the form of ownership of long-term loan documents (bonds) and shares of companies in developing countries and types of export loan capital are defined as short-term loans, that is, it provides an opportunity for entrepreneurs or the government to purchase capital equipment and equipment in the form of credit that must be paid within five years.
Private investment in this research is the realization of domestic investment (PMDN) and foreign investment (PMA) in East Kalimantan Province which is canceled in rupiah units.

Funds Transfer
Transfer funds are funds sourced from APBN revenues, which are allocated to regions to finance regional needs in the context of implementing decentralization. Transfer funds for each region consist of General Allocation Funds (DAU), Special Allocation Funds (DAK), and Revenue Sharing Funds (DBH). Transfer funds in this study are funds sourced from APBN revenues allocated to the regions to finance the needs of the Province of East Kalimantan which are expressed in rupiah units.

Economic Growth
According to Prasetyo (2003), the simplest term of economic growth can be interpreted as an increase in output or an increase in aggregate national income over a certain period of time for example one year. A country's economy is said to have experienced growth if the amount of real remuneration for the use of factors of production in a certain year is greater than in previous years. Thus the notion of economic growth can be interpreted as an increase in the production capacity of goods and services . Each region in carrying out development always expects high economic growth accompanied by equity, so that it will improve the welfare and quality of life of its people. The success or failure of economic development in a region can be seen from the level of community welfare marked by increased consumption due to increased income. In reality, the level of community welfare has never been achieved in the field due to internal problems such as income inequality between people, regional disparity and economic disparity. While external problems such as competition between regions, both between regional and national regions.
Economic Growth (X4) is the relative change in the real value of the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) in the Province of East Kalimantan on the basis of constant prices expressed in percent units .

Infrastructure Spending on Job Opportunities and Poverty Rate
Infrastructure can be interpreted as public facilities and infrastructure. Facilities are generally defined as public facilities which include roads, hospitals, bridges, water, telephone, electricity and others. In economics, infrastructure is a form of public capital that is formed from investments made by the government ( Hapsari, 2011 ). Infrastructure expenditure has a relationship with employment, and has an important role in an area in facilitating economic activities and prosperity of the community. Capital expenditure carried out by the government is believed to be able to move the real sector, absorb labor, increase public and government consumption, and trigger production activities ( Nugraheni, 2012 ). The infrastructure sector is the main inductive factor that can facilitate economic activity in Malaysia ( Suleiman and Albiman, 2014). Haughwout (2001) states that infrastructure can significantly improve social welfare in urban areas in America. According to Kurniawan (2014) road infrastructure affects the welfare of the community, road surface conditions very significantly affect the improvement of welfare in an area. Improving the quality of the road surface will encourage economic growth and ultimately be able to increase the income of the population.
The availability of infrastructure in an area is very important, to be able to attract investors to invest in the area so that it will have an impact on economic growth. Sukirno (2012) states that economic growth explains or measures the achievements of an economic development. In actual economic activities economic growth means the physical development of goods and services in force in a country, such as the increase and amount of industrial goods production, infrastructure development, the number of schools, the increase in service sector production and the increase in production of capital goods. H1: Infrastructure expenditure directly has a significant effect on employment opportunities in East Kalimantan Province H5: Infrastructure expenditure directly has a significant effect on poverty levels in East Kalimantan Province H10: Infrastructure expenditure indirectly has a significant effect on poverty levels through the employment opportunity variable in East Kalimantan Province.

Private Investment in Job Opportunities and Poverty Levels
Investment can be interpreted as expenditure or investment expenditure or company to buy capital goods and production equipment to increase the ability to produce goods and services available in the economy. This increase in the number of capital goods allows the economy to produce more goods and services in the future. Sometimes investments are made to replace capital goods that are already thirsty and need to be depreciated (Sukirno, 2012). Foreign investment (PMA) is one of the efforts in increasing economic development sourced from abroad. Batarseh and Ananzeh (2015) stated that investment sourced from PMA is also an important element to develop the economy, not only because of the increased supply of capital, but also helps in the formation of human capital and technology. So to know the employment opportunity process must be known in advance investment projects in the future. In order to realize investment development, the government provides various facilities to be able to attract investors in the economic sectors desired by the government to be able to develop. The provision of facilities is based on all fields of business, the location of community needs for these products, the level of technology used, employment and others. One of the main keys to economic growth. On the one hand investment reflects effective demand and on the other hand investment also creates productive efficiency for future production. The investment process results in an increase in a region's output. Investment is needed to meet population demands and increasing employment opportunities. With the increase in investment, new job opportunities will be created, which in turn will absorb labor, thereby reducing unemployment. H2: Private Investment directly has a significant effect on employment opportunities in East Kalimantan Province H6: Private Investment directly has a significant effect on poverty levels in East Kalimantan Province

Funds Transfer to Job Opportunities and Poverty Levels
The area is also eligible to receive funds transfer or Fund Balance which is funding the area which is sourced from the state budget that consists on Fund Share (DBH), the Fund Allocation General (DAU), and Fund Allocation Special (DAK). Fund Balance in addition is intended to help the Regions in the finance authority , also aims to reduce the imbalance source of funding of government between central and regional governments as well as to reduce the gap funding of government between a Region. The third component of the Fund Balance is a system of transfer of funds from the Government and is an entity that is intact . One of the objectives of development is improving the welfare of its people which means also the progress in the decline in the level of poverty . Through autonomous regions , where each region has the authority are more spacious and ability financially that much better the expected ability of the region to provide services basic to society will be further increased . H3: Transfer funds directly have a significant effect on employment opportunities in East Kalimantan Province H7: Transfer funds directly have a significant effect on poverty levels in East Kalimantan Province H12: Transfer funds indirectly have a significant effect on poverty levels through the employment opportunity variable in East Kalimantan Province

Economic Growth against Job Opportunities with Poverty Rate
According to Tambunan (2001) states that the growth of the economy without coupled with the addition of a chance of work will lead to imbalance in the distribution of additional revenue that (ceteris paribus), which subsequently will create a condition of growth of the economy with an increase in poverty . Growth and poverty have a very strong correlation , because in the early stages of the development process the poverty level tends to increase and as it approaches the final stage of development the number of poor people gradually decreases . H4: Economic Growth directly has a significant effect on employment opportunities in East Kalimantan Province H8: Economic growth directly has a significant effect on poverty levels in East Kalimantan Province H13: Economic Growth indirectly has a significant effect on poverty levels through the employment opportunity variable in East Kalimantan Province

Job Opportunities with Poverty Rate
Job opportunities (employment) is an opportunity created by the particular economic development, in the sense that the job opportunities that might have been filled or unfilled. According to Esmara (in Lapian, 201 5) provides a definition of employment opportunities is the number of people who work or people who have gotten a job, the more people who work the more extensive job opportunities. The creation of employment opportunities or broad employment is expected to be able to absorb labor, so that the working population earns income, where income is an element that is found in a prosperous society which is shown through the Human Development Index (HDI), United Nations Development Program (UNDP) starting in 1990 has developed an indicator of human well-being that can show human progress based on factors, such as average life expectancy, average length of schooling, literacy rates, and overall well-being. H9: Job opportunities directly have a significant effect on poverty levels in East Kalimantan Province

Research Method
In this study, the research center in this case is the scope of the Province of East Kalimantan. While the period of data to be examined is 20 08 until 201 7 . In this study the data collection technique used is library research, namely the process of collecting data related to the object data under study including the recording of research data that has been carried out by related parties on the object under study such as the Central Statistics Office (BPS) of East Kalimantan Province. The additional information outside the variable data under study will be considered as secondary data. The analysis model used in this study is the Path Analysis model . This analysis is used to determine the direction of the relationship between the independent variable with the dependent variable whether each variable is positively or negatively related and to predict the value of the dependent variable if the value of the independent variable has increased or decreased.

Image Research Concept Framework
In this research, quantitative data will be processed and analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 21 program package .

Results and Discussion 4.1 Result
In this hypothesis test carried out with the aim to partially know the influence of the independent variables consisting of Infrastructure Expenditures (X1), Investment (X2), Funds Transfer (X3), and Economic Growth (X4) on the dependent variable, namely Job Opportunities (Y1). The output results can be seen in the following From the results of the analysis test with SPSS to see the partial relationship between the independent variables on the dependent variable namely job opportunity (Y1), it can be described as follows: 1. Based on the table above, it is known that the variable expenditure for infrastructure (X1) has a positive and significant effect on the variable of Job Opportunities (Y1). This can be seen with the acquisition of a value of 5.776, greater than the value of t In this two-structure hypothesis test, a test will be conducted to see the partial effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable, namely the poverty level (Y2). The output from spss is as follows: From the results of processing the data used in this study, the results obtained are: 1. Based on the above output , it is known that the Infrastructure Expenditure Variable (X1) has a positive and significant influence on the Poverty Level variable (Y2). This can be seen from the acquisition of a value of 6.399> 3.182 with a significance value of 0.010 <0.05. 2. The analysis test results obtained that the Investment variable (X2) has a positive and significant effect on the Poverty Level variable (Y2) it can be seen from the acquisition of values where t arithmetic is greater than the t-

The Effect of Economic Growth on Poverty Rate Through the Employment Opportunity Variable
Given the magnitude of the acquisition value of the relationship between the variable Economic Growth (X4) to the Poverty Level variable (Y2) is 1.523, and the relationship between the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1) to the Poverty Level variable (Y2) is 1.914. So the indirect relationship between the variable Economic Growth (X4) to the Poverty Rate variable (Y2) through the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1) is = 1.523 X 1.914 = 2.915. With the results obtained where the acquisition value of indirect relationships is greater than the value of direct relationships 2.915> 1.523, so it can be said that the variable Economic Growth (X4) has a positive and significant relationship to the variable Poverty Rate (Y2) with the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1) as an intermediate variable

Discussion Influence Spending Infrastructure against Opportunity Employment
From the test results of the analysis of the data used in this study, the results show that the Infrastructure Expenditure variable (X1) has a positive and significant effect on the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1). The results of this study indicate that the more spending on infrastructure in this case the more development carried out by an area will have an impact on job vacancies, because the more activities in terms of carrying out development will certainly have an impact on the needs of the workforce, so the opportunity to work will more and more.

The results of this study are the same as the results of a study conducted by Akhmad Syaihu (2012) who obtained results where employment opportunities have an influence on reducing unemployment, unemployment is one of the factors that play a role in high poverty rates. With the reduction in unemployment, of course, this will also reduce poverty, but the results of this study are different from research conducted by Hardini (2017) where in his research it was found that employment opportunities have no effect on reducing unemployment.

The Influence of Infrastructure Spending against Poverty Rate through Employment Opportunities as Intermediary Variables.
The analysis test results obtained that the Infrastructure Expenditure variable has a positive and significant influence on the Poverty Level variable through the Employment Opportunity variable as an intermediary variable. The results of this study indicate that employment opportunities will be created due to increased spending on infrastructure carried out by the local government, and with the expansion of employment opportunities will be able to reduce the level of poverty caused by the absorption of the community in infrastructure development activities.
The results of this study are different from the results of research obtained by Indrajaya (2016) where the results of the research obtained are that infrastructure has no influence on the welfare of the community, a prosperous society as a picture that the level of poverty has decreased, the main goal for the local government is how to create a society that prosperous.

Effect of Investment on Poverty Levels through Employment Opportunities as Intermediary Variables.
The analysis test results obtained that the Investment variable (X2) has a positive and significant effect on the Poverty Level variable (Y2) through the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1) as an intermediate variable. The results of this study indicate that with more and more investment coming into the region will have an impact on the development of the region, one of which is the availability of jobs for people who do not have jobs and thus will reduce poverty levels in the area.
The results of this study are the same as the results of research conducted by Syaihu (2012) where in the study it was found that there is an indirect effect between private investment and government investment on unemployment through employment opportunities. So that the increasing number of employment opportunities will have an impact on reducing poverty levels.

The Effect of Funds Transfer on Poverty Rate through Employment Opportunities as an Intermediary Variable.
The results of this study showed that variables Funds Transfer (X3) has a positive and significant impact on the poverty rate variable (Y2) with vari a bell Employment (Y1) as intermediate variables. The results of this study indicate that the greater amount of funds received by the region from the center will help the region in creating broader employment opportunities because with the greater amount of funds received it will make it easier for the region to carry out various activities, one of which is infrastructure development which is financed from the transfer of funds received by the increasing number of infrastructure developments, it will certainly create wider employment opportunities for the community and have an impact on reducing poverty levels for the region.
The results of this study are the same as the results of the study obtained by Taryono (2014), the results of the study found that transfer funds have an influence on poverty reduction. With the increasing amount of funds received, it will facilitate the government to carry out various activities that can create jobs that can absorb a large number of workers as well, so that the community will have an income and will certainly have an impact on reducing poverty.

The Effect of Economic Growth on Poverty Rate through Job Opportunities as an Intermediary Variable.
The analysis test results obtained that the variable Economic Growth (X4) has a positive and significant effect on the Poverty Level variable (Y2) with the Employment Opportunity variable (Y1) as an intermediate variable.
