ANALISIS FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI MOTIVASI BERWIRAUSAHA DI KOTA PEKANBARU
ABSTRACT: Today, in Pekanbaru
the situation of an abundant manpower supply but limited market capacity makes
people, unable to find work, anxious to create their own businesses (self
employment). Using primary data, the goal of this paper is to show the
individual level determinants of self employment. A logistic regression model
is used to estimate different aspects of choices between self employment and
working for a salary. This study argues that age, gender, education, Chinese
ethnicity and marital status play a significant role in the decision to become
self employed in the city of Pekanbaru. As well, other variables such as Melayu
or Minang ethnicity and migrant status play a small role in determining who is
self employed. Most of the coefficients are positive, except for education and
Melayu ethnicity with the Minang and Chinese ethnicity probability to become
self employed better than that of the Melayu. There are some suggestions that
Minang and Chinese people may place a higher value on entrepreneurship than do
the Melayu. Indeed, the Chinese having faced severe discrimination have been
pushed into self employment in large numbers. This research, however, also
shows that the differences in decisions to be self employed vary substantially
across ethnic lines. Therefore, the development of entrepreneurship requires a
systematic and integrative approach to find out just what is involved in
creating an environment conducive to the growth and development of
entrepreneurship.
