jobs. As a result, unemployment has been increasing, a few years back had no
decline. According to data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, Unemployment
Rate (TPT) in Indonesia in August 2012 reached 6.14 percent, compared TPT
decreased by 6.56 percent in February 2012.

in both
An increasing number
of groups working population is able to reduce the number of unemployed fell to
7.87 percent. The Indonesian government can predict and achieve the level of
unemployment through economic growth. If the government assumes that economic
growth will be achieved in a given year by one percent, it can be predicted to
affect the decline in the unemployment rate of 0.064703 percent. If the
government is targeting the lower the unemployment rate by 1 percentage point,
then the government should reach about 15.5 percent of economic growth, ceteris
paribus assumption.

education. The level of education of unemployed high school graduates who
dominated down the absorption indicates the difficulty of the work force.

education, and reduce the number of dropouts. In addition, job creation as one
of the priorities in economic development is appropriate and the government
must be consistent in its implementation or achievement of these priorities ..

wealth management area, which certainly must involve the local community.
During this time many people in an area rich in wealth of the region, but
people prefer to work abroad, it happens because of a lack of confidence and
not promising in terms of income. Therefore, give confidence and knowledge to
the people that they are not only working as a laborer or someone with a salary
that is not promising.
Reducing the number
of unemployed and the impact on the economy, not only that, another way is to
entrepreneurship has an important role in all dimensions of life. Contribution
of entrepreneurship to economic development of a country is not doubt about it.
A country that can grow and can construct ideally, should have entrepreneurs of
2% of the total population. The presence and role of entrepreneurship will give
effect to the advancement of the economy and improvement in the economic
situation. Because entrepreneurs can create jobs, improve quality of life,
improve income distribution, harness and mobilize resources to improve national
productivity, the informal sector is an alternative that can help absorb
unemployment.
Entrepreneurship can
be an alternative in the alleviation of poverty and unemployment. The
government is expected to support the advancement of entrepreneurship by
providing capital assistance to entrepreneurs to set up businesses without a
hitch on the cost of capital. Job seekers were initially only interested in the
formal sector is also expected to change his views and switch on the informal
sector that is entrepreneurial.
