| Description |
ABSTRACTThis study develops a policy model in the context of the hierarchical administration system for a regional economy in Japan. In Japan’s case, as a hierarchy of national, prefectural, and municipal (city) administration exists, a different regional policy is established for each level of the hierarchy. Generally, the policy and its evaluation differ according to the priority given either to national interests or to each region’s interests. This was examined by conducting a quantitative analysis using the computable general equilibrium (CGE) model. Particularly, Kitakyushu and Fukuoka cities constitute an administrative region at the city level. Moreover, these two cities along with the rest of Fukuoka Prefecture represent Fukuoka Prefecture. Alternatively, a case for including the adjacent prefecture, Yamaguchi Prefecture in these regions exists. The entire area is called the Northern Kyushu area by combining Fukuoka and Yamaguchi Prefectures. Such a large area gains importance in regional policy because it is placed higher in the hierarchy. This study focuses on five regions, including the rest of Japan. Moreover, given the availability of the input–output tables for these regions, the database to develop the CGE model can be estimated after tabulating the interregional input–output table.Keywords: Northern Kyushu; hierarchy of administration; regional policy; CGE modelABSTRAKKajian ini membangunkan model dasar dalam konteks sistem pentadbiran hierarki bagi ekonomi serantau di Jepun. Dalam kes Jepun, sebagai hierarki negara, prefectural, dan perbandaran (bandar) pentadbiran wujud, dasar serantau yang berbeza ditubuhkan untuk setiap peringkat hierarki. Secara umunya, dasar dan penilaian yang berbeza-beza mengikut keutamaan yang diberikan sama ada untuk kepentingan negara atau kepentingan setiap rantau ini. Ini telah diperiksa dengan menjalankan analisis kuantitatif yang menggunakan model keseimbangan dihitung am (CGE). Terutama sekali, Kitakyushu dan bandar-bandar Fukuoka merupakan wilayah pentadbiran di peringkat bandar. Selain itu, kedua-dua bandar ini termasuk Wilayah Fukuoka yang lain adalah mewakili Wilayah Fukuoka. Sebagai alternatif, kes termasuk wilayah bersebelahan, Wilayah Yamaguchi di kawasan-kawasan ini wujud. Keseluruhan kawasan dikenali sebagai kawasan Kyushu Utara dengan menggabungkan Fukuoka dan wilayah Yamaguchi. Sebahagian besar wilayah adalah penti ng dalam dasar serantau kerana ia diletakkan lebih tinggi dalam heararki. Kajian ini memberi tumpuan kepada lima wilayah, termasuk seluruh Jepun. Lebih-lebih lagi, wujudnya jadual input-output bagi kawasan-kawasan ini, pangkalan data untuk membangunkan model CGE boleh dianggarkan selepas tabulating antara jadual input-output.Kata kunci : Kyushu Utara; hierarki pentadbiran; dasar serantau; model CGE
