ABSTRACT
Introduction: Population growth
in Indonesia is getting higher. This change is influenced by population
density. Economic growth in the behind-the-board area is still volatile; this
can be addressed by planning for human resource development and managing
business fields in several regional sectors. The purpose of this study is to
analyze the economy of Balikpapan in 2022. Method: This study uses a
qualitative literature study method. Through data collection from journals and
other literature supporting media. Result: The study results indicate
that the economy behind the board area needs to develop a strategy to adjust
the existing potential by increasing the balance of human resources as
management staff. It is based on the performance achievements of local
companies by collaborating in the international market sector. The achievement
of business economic development through increasing MSMEs in several areas
behind the board is an effort to improve the creative economy. Conclusion: The
market shift has created a new attribute among the business, tourism and micro
and macroeconomic sectors. The development aspect supports regional progress in
economic growth with the high capacity of the population in Indonesia,
especially behind the board. The creative economy has become a significant

INTRODUCTION
Population
growth in Indonesia is growing day by day. The increase in population is a
measure of economic growth. Based on the primary needs of each region, the
State requires food, shelter and housing. The general context is clear that the
economic changes in Indonesia are undergoing rapid shifts due to the high
population growth. Balikpapan is the gateway to the Eastern Indonesia region (Hadiyatno et al., 2018). The potential development of human and natural resources in the
area behind the board is very high, so it becomes a discourse in changing the
regional order. As behind the panel is planned as the capital city of
Indonesia.
Economic
awareness is an essential foundation for increasing the stability of the
country's wealth. The potential behind the board can be adequately developed if
human resources can appropriately manage the structure of development, economy,
and tourism. Understanding developing business in several sectors of the
economy behind the board is an innovation that must be designed according to
the needs of the Indonesian people, especially Balikpapan. With the development
of the strategic environment and the perception of potential threats faced by
Indonesia, it is necessary to make adjustments between development policies and
defence strategies related to efforts to strengthen security and international
cooperation in various fields. (April & Defence, 2020).
The
government must review the mechanism of economic development in 2022. They know
the economy's capabilities in the city of Balikpapan through an analysis of
economic growth (GRDP) with an economic base approach to identify which sectors
are the most superior and strategic to be developed (April & Defense, 2020). With this Analysis, the central and local governments can place
business projects according to the potential and opportunities in the local
area. Follow-up economic development is a big hope for the community to achieve
stable financial stability.
The
embodiment of the creative market is divided into several groups. Among them
are traditional and modern market groups. The two markets are divided into
implementation strategies for developing transaction models, like conventional
and online transactions. According to Sumodiningrat, community empowerment is
an effort to make the community independent by realizing the potential
capabilities possessed by the community (Hadiyatno et al., 2018). Through the preparation for developing a creative economy with
digital access, the community is given special education and training as a provision
of science and technology.
The
government's awareness of the potential wealth of the sea and hills owned by
the city of beam boards to achieve the target of industrial management. The
breadth of job opportunities is because it has a reasonably large business
field. Economic development in the behind-the-scenes sector is the primary
embodiment of the improvement of the creative economy, which will be developed
by Indonesian youth towards a golden Indonesia. Many people from outside
Kalimantan live in the Kalimantan area for several reasons, including economic
and population density in the place where they live. The city of Balikpapan
consists of 5 (five) sub-districts and 27 (twenty-seven) urban villages, which
are cities in East Kalimantan, Indonesia (Praditha et al., 2019). Balikpapan City has an area of 50,330.57 ha, consisting of 12%
sea area and 85% hilly area. A coastal and marine area that stretches along a
coastline of 45.6 km, this city is located on the east coast of Kalimantan,
which is directly adjacent to the Makassar Straits.
There is a
sea to utilize marine fishery resources, with regional developments and job
expansion innovations. They are establishing tourist attractions with the use
of ecosystems and food creation through the processing of foodstuffs from
marine resources. For example, fish produced by fishermen can be innovated by
marketing through fish chip products, processing restaurants, crackers, and
home industries. Expansion of employment in coastal areas is one of the objects
of tourism development. Suppose the creative economy movement through
increasing MSMEs is adequately realized. In that case, it can help the economic
recovery program of the central government and local governments (Praditha et al., 2019). The fisheries sector has excellent potential as a regional
development capital; this statement will be realized if the fisheries sector is
the economic base sector.
The natural
wealth behind the board is not only developed in a marine ecosystem but through
the development of industry and wood processing with extensive natural
plantations capable of providing business opportunities for the local
community. Balikpapan is one of the cities in East Kalimantan which has
experienced very rapid economic growth since the 1970s, namely since the
increasing world demand for wood commodities in East Kalimantan (Primary, 2020) . The timber sale in the Kalimantan region is well known in
various sectors of Indonesia.
Indonesia's
natural wealth is extensive and promises managers of both micro and macro
business fields high potential. Through the system and cooperation between
sectors of the local economy. To develop the creative economy area, it is
necessary to have an excellent social network so that it becomes the capital
basis for the development of communication. Attitudes and cooperation between
business fields make the economic movement advanced and established. The
government will start noticing results based on potential and natural wealth,
which will establish collaboration with MSMEs in Indonesia. The creative industry is a field that has the potential for
development, considering that this industry has unlimited resources and is
based on the intellectuality of its human resources (Syaputra et al., 2021). The growing creative industry in Indonesia, the more it shows
that the Indonesian economy can innovate and compete
Kalimantan
holds various wood-producing plants, especially wood from tropical forests (Syaputra et al., 2021). The natural wealth in Kalimantan includes wood processing.
Harvesting wood produces small pieces of residue that have been underutilized.
On the other hand, one of the superior products entrepreneurs sell in the
Inpres market is a typical Kalimantan woven fabric. With these resources, of
course, it has the potential to be developed as a regional speciality product.
Protection of timber-producing forests must be increased because significant
assets in the Kalimantan region have a pretty good income. If the resilience of
the protected forest decreases, it is feared that there will be timber theft
and a significant reduction in timber, which will impact regional and State
losses.
The utilization
of tropical forests can be developed to improve the regional economy and
society. However, some of the problems in Indonesia's population are still at
the poverty line, with several indicators including low education, early
marriage, lack of attention from the central and local governments, and not a
steady income. The challenges in development faced by the central and local
governments are poverty, unemployment and social inequality (Syaputra et al., 2021). The result of quality human resources is one solution in
responding to these challenges. To improve human resources, the government must
provide skills and training, offer scholarships to students and support the
readiness of education costs.
Based on this
research, it can be formulated: a. How is economic development behind the board
after the pandemic? b. Can the processing of natural resources from the local
government improve people's welfare? the purpose of this research is to find
out the economic growth behind the post-pandemic board. As can provide
practical benefits to increase public knowledge regarding the role and efforts
to restore the people's economy in terms of natural resources (natural
resources) power lines, to be able to utilize natural resources properly and
correctly without having to damage the environment. Researchers suggest that
the natural wealth owned in the balikpapan area has the potential category to
be developed by the central and regional governments. Natural wealth in general
directs the level of social welfare with the qualifications of food sources,
jobs and processing of raw materials into a product that has a high selling
value if it can be managed properly. In principle, welfare dominates the
aspects of development and availability of goods and services.
METHOD
This
research uses a qualitative method of literature study design. According to (Fadli, 2021),
The research approach used is qualitative, namely
research by understanding social phenomena. The existing data is then described
(Moleong, 2007: 6). Analysis of theoretical studies (Praditha et al., 2019)

Researchers collected data
by collecting journals and ebooks for analysis based on relevant findings.
Steps to complete the literature study include collecting journals related to
the behind the scenes economy, analyzing and following up on every aspect of
the problem from the references the researchers got.
RESULTS AND
DISCUSSION
Based on the
analysis results from several reference journals, researchers can understand
that economic activities in Balikpapan must be redeveloped in 2022. There are
changes in the management system for natural resources and human resources. The
current financial processing process has significant changes, with online
transactions as the main supporting factor for the development of the East
Kalimantan region, which will become the capital city of Indonesia. The central
government has raised funds for economic progress in various parts of
Indonesia. The provision of KUR funds with low-interest rates and the
empowerment of MSMEs through the creative economy movement is part of the micro
and macro business sectors. The efforts of the central government to cooperate
with the development and improvement of MSMEs are one of the keys to the
community's economic progress.
The
development of MSMEs in the Kalimantan area is quite extensive through the
awareness of the youth of Kalimantan to form the GEKRAF (Creative Economy
Movement) organization which embodies the development of local products
assisted by the product development process through a licensing system and collaboration
between tourist attractions and the sectors involved. The opinion of (Syaputra et al., 2021), MSMEs are the leading figures in economic activity in Indonesia.
In general, MSMEs in the national economy have the following roles: (1)
providing employment opportunities, (2) playing essential roles in local
economic development and community empowerment, (3) creating new markets and
sources of innovation, and (4) contributing to the balance of payments (Putra, 2016).
Through the
market sales mechanism, MSMEs create an active community to develop their
potential and skills; with the provision of funds and assistance from the
government, the community can develop regularly and programmatically. The
discourse from MSMEs towards a prosperous society by producing new local products
is assisted in the legality process with digital marketing methods. Using
applications on Android phones is a community-conscious effort to form creative
economy groups (Musta'in et al., 2022).
Utilizing
functions with good financial income can help people become financially
literate. They are reducing unemployment and assisting the development of
individual and group potential. As the population increases, economic needs
also increase (Widiarani et al., 2021). Within five years, the economic growth of the City of Balikpapan
has experienced a fluctuating increase in the Economic Leading Sector Analysis
of the City of Balikpapan and Samarinda, which has a reasonably high range. The
change in this surge has become the government's discourse on stable economic
resilience in the Balikpapan area. Opportunities that have developed into
people's business capital in living their daily lives. The level of welfare has
begun to stabilize. The community feels that economic growth in the tourism,
marine and industrial sectors is relatively stable.
Its economic
growth is a benchmark for economic development and a barometer for the
development of East Kalimantan Province. Balikpapan City had a contribution of
14.76% in 2015, and its contribution reached 15.66% in 2019 (Widiarani et al., 2021). Meanwhile, Samarinda City contributed 10.09% in 2015, and in
2019 it increased to 10.49%, according to BPS (2020). Increasing income from
the Kalimantan region is an excellent economic guide for Indonesia. The
majority of the population domiciled in West Java, Central Java, and East Java
are in Kalimantan for reasons of business, work, etc. Some reasons for
transmigration become a reference that some residents in the Java region still
need to receive an established economic need. The family chose Kalimantan as
one of the overseas cities to stimulate economic growth. Some of the residents
of Kalimantan continue their education in the Java region to increase human
resources to preserve the high economic growth rate.
Balikpapan's
economy has become stable due to environmental empowerment from the government,
and the pace of economic progress is the beginning of the gateway to the
nation's progress. Opinion from (Wicaksono, 2019) The economic potential of each region needs to be utilized
effectively and efficiently to support the development and economic growth in
the area. Awareness of local government and local communities is part of
healthy economic development. This means that the people's economy recovers
when the community undergoes changes and moves independently. As a state
facilitator, the government supports local community programs by opening
training in and outside the region, establishing cooperation between countries,
improving education and reducing poverty. Such awareness is a reasonable effort
and collaboration. Because the natural potential and job opportunities in Indonesia
are pretty vast, it is just that people are less able to move actively and
creatively.
Changes in
the creative economy through economic development with innovation and skill
improvement are essential for advanced economic movements in various regions,
especially Balikpapan. Economics, in general, is allocating, producing,
distributing and consuming goods and services needed by a person, group of
people, society or the State (April & Defense, 2020). The economy has excellent opportunities to change people's lives
as part of the need to survive. A stable economy can promote a healthy
population recovery. Vice versa, if the economy slumps, conditions will worsen.
The changes that the government will build for the community are carried out in
stages. Change means following the mechanism of population growth that will
help a healthier life.
Excellence is
a derivation of a postulate developed in international trade studies, where a
country must have an advantage (April & Defence, 2020) Sector. Domestic
products that have been designed must have national recognition and
confirmation. To recognize the results of the finished product, the community
can market it by getting a particular brand so that all consumers easily
recognize it. The purpose of the product brand as the legality and identity of
the product's origin is developing. This effort is to make online or
traditional merchants have superior value in the world market.(April & Pertahanan, 2020)
Based on the
Analysis according to (Endrawati et al., 2021), population data originating from the North Balikpapan District in
figures 2019 explains that the area in the Graha Indah Village has several
different types of work. Some jobs in the Graha Indah sub-district are 357
traders, 334 farmers, and 1411 workers. People still need to understand the
ways and strategies of business development. The category of traders still
needs to be higher compared to workers. This needs to be followed up in
developing the potential for trading businesses through debriefing and training
on the use of goods and services, potential food resources, and marine and
tropical forest products. The creative economy movement needs to be synergized
with sector managers so that the community wants and is willing to build the
Balikpapan economy through the creative economy movement.
Tourism can
help people achieve economic improvement by offering a variety of unique
tourist destinations and foods to achieve the progress of tourist attractions.
There are marine tourism spots in coastal areas to be managed with exciting
rides and culinary delights. When the tourism sector has a coastal culinary
innovation program, the place is managed uniquely by building cooperation to
create a creative culinary market. Tourism is one of the capitals in increasing
the income of a region. Such efforts help the community deal with changing
times and increasingly rapid technological shifts (Hadiyatno et al., 2018). Traders will implement marketing through applications such as
food and other forms of application. Tourism development is part of national
development with goals, among others, to expand business opportunities and
employment (Hadiyatno et al., 2018).
Dynamic
economic developments have caused Balikpapan City and Samarinda City sectors to
fluctuate (Kosanke, 2019) (Wijaya et al., 2020). The manufacturing industry has the highest role in forming the
GRDP of Balikpapan City, while in Samarinda City is the construction sector.
The growth rate of the manufacturing industry sector fluctuated in the
2015-2017 period, then tended to increase until 2019. In 2019 the growth rate
of the manufacturing industry was 4.47%, higher than in 2018, which was 4.09%.
Meanwhile, in the same period, the construction sector's growth rate in
Samarinda in 2019 was 4.72%, a decrease compared to 2018, which grew by 6.15%
(Statistics, 2016). Such changes are one of the aspects that support the
welfare of the people of Balikpapan to continue to innovate in developing
businesses in the tourism sector, food processing, and empowering natural
resources.
The purpose
of the creative economy movement is to become an important vehicle and skill
that must be developed to provide training for Indonesian youth. The provision
and training of these skills are not only in demand by the people in coastal
areas, but the development of the area becomes the primary reference that the
population distribution in the region has the potential to have an element of
rapid opportunity when appropriately developed. Achieve the population's
success level when viewed from the established business's management,
distribution and development. Economic progress encourages the emergence of new
business actors, giving rise to intense business competition (Arifin, 2011). All business ventures are trying to get the maximum profit. The
community feels that developing the business contributes to empowering a
healthy environment and improving the management of natural potential by
offering convenience to the population. Economic empowerment is a step taken to
strengthen the economy and have competitiveness. An economy that can build a
conscious business makes a particular strength for the State in helping the
rate of growth and development towards increasing the degree of MSMEs (Basmar et al., 2021).
CONCLUSION
Post-pandemic
Balikpapan economic development has decreased significantly. One of the steps
built to improve recovery is through financial literacy. Can develop through
production engineering, namely building a creative economy in the Kalimantan
region, especially Balikpapan. Until now, the management of natural resources
from the government has become one of the main assets of the community in
developing goods and services. Therefore, cooperation between producers, the
government and consumers is needed for the market needs needed by the
community. So as to obtain wealth from production,
good processing to increase post-pandemic economic stability.
