Abstract
Departing from the issue of the high number of MSMEs and the low number of Human Development Index (HDI), this study aims at investigating the development of MSMEs, the supporting factors and the obstacles in the MSME development, as well asits contribution to the escalation of HDI score. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The informants in this study are determined purposively consisting of actors and stakeholders in the management of MSME and the development of the HDI score. Data collection techniques were focus group discussions and were reinforced with interviews, observations, and documentation. The results revealed that the number of MSME increases, the labor absorption increases, and the production volume increases. However, such findings also inhibit the increase of the HDI score due to investors who do not support the economic development of MSME actors.
