Abstract

This study analyzes the economic shocks to regional income before and during COVID-19 in the 18 largest cities in Indonesia (DKI Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang, Surabaya, Medan, Palembang, Banjar Masin, Bandar Lampung, Makassar, Samarinda, Denpasar, Padang, Pontianak, Manado, Mataram, Pangkal Pinang, Ambon and Banten) for the period August-2018 until May-2021 using panel regression. The findings are that the economic shocks due to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in a decrease in regional income. Furthermore, economic conditions, employment opportunities and price stability have a positive and significant effect on regional income. Meanwhile, price expectations also have a positive but insignificant effect on regional revenues. The government needs to deal with the impact of the economic shocks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including maintaining the stability of control variables, providing stimulus for the business sector and strengthening people's purchasing power.
