INTRODUCTION

The Indonesian state is currently promoting

infrastructure to increase the development of the
country, as well as create equal distribution of

income, where equal distribution of income is
related to the ability of a region to increase its

economic activities through the provision of
infrastructure that is inherent and in accordance

with the conditions and conditions of the region or
area where the infrastructure will be built

(Gustiana, Nana, Sadalia, Isfenti and Sinulingga,

2023)
Infrastructure development can be realized to

enable a country to increase its economic activity,

where the economy often does not develop if the
existing infrastructure cannot be developed for the

benefit of the community, so that it has an impact
on increasing or decreasing the community's

economy, where the decline in the community's
economy will have an impact on decreasing

national income through Gross domestic product is

increasingly decreasing, on the other hand, if
people's income increases, then gross domestic

product will also increase and can contribute to
increasing economic growth in a country or region

(Pradana, Ade Novid and Sumarsono, 2018) .
Infrastructure development has various significant

impacts, both positive and negative, on society, the
economy and the environment, including good

infrastructure, such as roads, ports and
telecommunications

networks,

increasing

economic efficiency and productivity, developing
infrastructure such as health facilities, education ,

and clean water increases community access to
essential basic services (Matondang, 2022) .

Infrastructure projects create many jobs in the
construction sector, and once completed, jobs in

operations and maintenance, infrastructure
development helps reduce regional disparities by

developing disadvantaged areas and improving the
welfare of local communities (Sofian, Moh,

Estetiono & and Sofian Asmirza, 2018) .
Apart from that, there is the development of

modern infrastructure, such as environmentally
friendly power plants, supporting the use of new

technology

that

is

more

efficient

and

environmentally friendly, where all of this

infrastructure development will have a significant
impact on the sustainability of economic activities,

all of which will lead to increasing income not only
for people throughout the world. business, as well

as for regions, regions and also for the State

(Sinaga, Arnaldo M., 2022) .
There are negative impacts from infrastructure

development which not only harm society and the

business world, but also harm the Government,
because the existing damage can also harm an area,

region or country, so that the Government will not
get big benefits from economic activities, where the

community's economy income will decrease, and
will have implications for a decrease in national

income which will result in a decrease in economic

growth (Sebayar & Sebayar, 2020) .
The negative impacts are that large construction

projects can cause deforestation, destroy habitats

and loss of biodiversity, large infrastructure

projects often require the removal of people from
the project site, which can cause loss of homes and

livelihoods, construction and maintenance of
infrastructure requires very large investments

which can burden the government budget (Azizah,
SIrojusilam and Fachrudin, 2021) . Infrastructure

projects are often vulnerable to corruption and
fund protection, which can hinder project

completion and reduce their benefits, and the
infrastructure built may favor certain groups or

certain regions, thereby increasing social and

economic inequality (Isyandi, 2021) .
Apart from gross domestic product and economic

growth, infrastructure development can have an

impact on increasing employment opportunities,
where infrastructure development requires

investment, both from within the country and
direct investment from abroad, where this

investment can generate large increases in
economic benefits and can also increase investor

confidence to invest in infrastructure development

(Yandi, Delpra, 2023) .
Infrastructure development has broad and

complex impacts. It is important for governments

and project implementers to consider all these
aspects and take steps to maximize positive

benefits while minimizing negative impacts.
Careful planning, effective implementation, as well

as community participation and transparency are
the keys to achieving the desired results in

infrastructure development (Siahaan, Elisabet,

Fachrudin, Khaira Amali and Fachrudin, 2018) .
Infrastructure development in Medan City is one of

the

Central

Government's

infrastructure

development programs, where the Central
Government carries out this infrastructure

development program in order to boost the
economy. In the last 45 years, infrastructure

development has not been able to increase income
distribution in Medan City, where Medan City has

not been able to increase economic growth

significantly, and has not been able to produce
gross domestic product according to the targets set

by the Medan City Government. This is caused by a
lack of analysis regarding the negative impacts of

this infrastructure development, as well as a lack of
investment that has a real impact, complicated

bureaucracy, and the lack of will of the Medan City
Government to organize good infrastructure

development which results in losses experienced
by the community, such as The construction of the

revitalization of the Merdeka Square in Medan City
is actually detrimental to MSMEs around the

Merdeka Square, because the impact of the long
revitalization actually increases costs and reduces

regional income, which results in a decrease in

Medan City's gross domestic product. This can be
seen from the realization of Medan City's gross

domestic product in 2023 of IDR 233.31 trillion
compared to 2022 of IDR 280.165 trillion, actually

a decrease compared to 2022, where the average
economic growth of Medan City in 2022 was 5.04%

compared to 2023 which was 4. 71% decreased,
where the impact of decreasing GRDP will reduce

the economic growth of Medan City

LITERATURE REVIEW

Economic growth

Economic growth is an increase in a country's

capacity to produce goods and services compared

to the previous period. Economic growth is
measured through an increase in real Gross

Domestic Product (GDP), which is the total value of

goods and services produced in a country after
adjusting for inflation (Agustini, Fauzia, Amanah &

Harahap, 2022) .
Economic growth is the main goal of economic

policy which can bring many benefits to society and

the country. However, to ensure sustainable and
inclusive growth, policies are needed that pay

attention to equity, environmental sustainability
and social justice. With a holistic approach,

economic growth can be a powerful tool for

improving people's welfare and quality of life
(Cahyo D., Herman and Kurnia O., Leni and

Yunitasari, 2021) .
The indicators of economic growth are:
1.

Direct investment

2.

Technology

3.

Economic policy

4.

International trade

5.

There is an increase in business income

(Kurniasari, Indah and Hasmarini, 2023)

GRDP

GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) is an

economic indicator that measures the total value of

goods and services produced in a certain region in
a certain time period, usually one year. GRDP is

similar to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) but
focuses on the regional or provincial level within a

country (IP Sari, 2020) .
GRDP is an important tool for measuring and

understanding economic performance at the
regional level. By identifying the contribution of

various sectors and factors that influence economic
growth, the government and stakeholders can take

more effective policies and decisions to encourage
sustainable and inclusive economic development

throughout the region (AB, Ismail, Tanjung, 2023) .

https://www.theamericanjournals.com/index.php/tajiir

The indicators of GRDP are:
1.

Household consumption

2.

Government Expenditures

3.

Investment

Investment

Investment is the activity of investing capital or

assets with the hope of gaining profits or increasing

value in the future. Investment plays an important
role in economic growth and financial stability of

individuals, companies and countries (Izharsyah,
Jehan Ridho and Lubis, 2020) .
Investing is an important tool for achieving

financial goals and building long-term wealth. With

a good understanding of investment types,
benefits, risks, and factors that influence

investment decisions, individuals and institutions
can make wiser and strategic decisions.

Diversification and regular monitoring are also
very important to manage risk and maximize

investment returns (MDI Sari, 2021) .
The investment indicators are:
1.

Increase in community income

2.

Infrastructure development

3.

Economic growth

Community Income

Community income is the amount of money or

income earned by individuals or households from
various sources during a certain period, usually

one year. People's income plays an important role
in determining living standards, consumption and

overall economic welfare (Adi Syahputra,
Muhammad Yusrizal and Sintara, 2019) .
Community income is an important indicator of

economic and social welfare. Efforts to increase
people's incomes through education, job creation,

fair wage policies, and support for MSMEs can

bring great benefits to the economy and the welfare

of society as a whole. A deep understanding of
income sources, influencing factors, and their

impact on the economy is very important for policy
makers and other stakeholders (Ardian,

Muhammad and Purba, 2020) .
The indicators of community income are:
1.

Level of education

2.

Work experience

3.

Investment

4.

Economic growth (Taufiq, Muhammad and

Kombaitan, 2019) .

Infrastructure development

Infrastructure development is the process of

planning, developing and maintaining basic

facilities and systems needed to support the
economic and social activities of a country or

region. Infrastructure covers various sectors, such
as transportation, energy, air, telecommunications

and other public facilities (Evi Purba, Naomi, Sari,
Raina Linda and Tanjung, 2022) .
Infrastructure development is a long-term

investment that is crucial for the growth and

development of a country. With good planning and
effective

implementation,

infrastructure

development can bring many benefits to society
and the economy as a whole (Hardiningsih,

Pancawati, Meita Oktaviani, Rachmawati and
Srimindarti, 2018) .
Infrastructure development indicators are:
1.

Infrastructure quality

2.

Economic growth

3.

Investment (Zubaydah, Rafika, Afifuddin,

Sya'ad and Albar Tanjung, 2022) .

RESEARCH METHODS

Method This research was carried out using a

quantitative descriptive method using structural

equation model (SEM) analysis method, where
according to (Rashid, Yasir, 2019) SEM analysis is a

data analysis technique which aims to determine

the factors that influence the constructive variable
which originates from the influence of the

independent variable on the dependent variable. .
The population in this study was 2,494,512

residents of Medan City in 2023, where the
sampling method was carried out using the

accidental sampling method , where according to
the sampling method using accidental sampling is

a sampling method where samples are taken where
the object is on the spot.
The number of samples taken can be done using the

Slovin formula as follows:
n = N / ( 1 + Ne² ) = 2,494,512 / (1 + 2,494,512 x

0.1²) = 99.99 = 100 inhabitants of Medan City .

The table above states that the data from each

variable is suitable for use, so it can be used

properly to analyze the various influences of each
existing variable .
Average Variant Extracted (AVE) Analysis

(Rashid, Yasir, 2019) states that the AVE test is one

of the techniques used to assess how much data

from a construct variable is valid or not. The
Average Variant Extracted (AVE) test results are in

the following table:

means that the equation model of the data
distribution is appropriate and valid to be used for

further analysis .

Composite Reliability Analysis
According to (Rashid, Yasir, 2019) Composite

Reliability testing is a technique for understanding

the construct model that has been analyzed. This
can be seen in the following table:

The table above states that value composite

reliability is greater than 0.6, where the existing

data is reliable and appropriate, and suitable for

further analysis.

Discriminant Validity Analysis

In confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) or structural

equation modeling (SEM), discriminant validity

analysis is a technique used to assess how different

a construct is from other constructs in the model.
The results of the Discriminant Validity analysis

can be seen in Table 5 below:

According to the table above, it can be concluded

that partially the GRDP and investment variables

have an effect on the local economic growth of
Medan City and have an effect on the income of the

people of Medan City. Simultaneously, the GRDP
and investment variables influence the local

economic growth of Medan City through the
income variable of the people of Medan City as an

intervening variable.

DISCUSSION

GRDP Influences the Economic Growth of Medan

City
The research results state that GRDP has an

influence on the economic growth of Medan City .
This is in accordance with research from

(Sembiring, Rahmat and Faried, 2019) which states

that increasing GRDP will tend to increase
government income, the economy will grow and

will contribute to increasing regional income.

Investment Influences the Economic Growth of

Medan City

The research results explain that investment

influences the economic growth of Medan City .

This is in line with research (Afandi, Ratno, Lubis,
Suwandi and Maas, 2022) which states that the

greater the investment, the more likely it is to
increase employment and people's income, so that

it will contribute to the economic growth of a
country or region.

GRDP Influences the Income of the People of

Medan City

According to research results, the GRDP variable

influences the income of the people of Medan City .
This is in accordance with research (Raynaldo,

2021) which states that the greater the GRDP, the

greater the contribution to increasing employment
opportunities and reducing unemployment, where

the increase in GRDP which is aimed at the process
of distributing development funds is aimed at

increasing people's income.

Investment Affects the Income of the People of

Medan City

According to research results, investment variables

influence the income of the people of Medan City .

This is in accordance with research (Hapsari, 2022)
which states that the greater the investment, the

more it will contribute to increasing employment
opportunities and will make people in the

workforce have income that can make the economy
grow.

The Income of the People of Medan City

Influences the Economic Growth of Medan City

The results of the research state that the income of

the people of Medan City influences the economic
growth of Medan City. This is in accordance with

research (Sebayar, Saimara AM, Nasution, 2019)
which explains that as people's income increases,

their purchasing power tends to increase and they
are able to buy goods in large quantities and

contribute to economic growth.
GRDP has an influence on the economic growth of

Medan City through community income as an
intervening variable
The research results show that the GRDP variable

influences the local economic growth of Medan City

through community income as an intervening
variable . This is in accordance with research

(Sutono, 2023) which explains that a large PDARAB
will tend to increase people's income, which

indicates an increase in economic growth which
contributes to improving the community's

economy.


Investment Influences the Economic Growth of

Medan City through Community Income as an

Intervening Variable
The research results show that investment

variables influence the local economic growth of
Medan City through community income as an

intervening variable . This is in accordance with
research (Iskandar, 2023) which states that if there

is a lot of investment, it will tend to reduce income
and increase wages. Rising wages will contribute to

increased economic activity and tend to make
economic growth increase significantly.

IMPLEMENTATION

The greater the factors that influence

infrastructure development through investment

and increasing GRDP, the more employment
opportunities there will be and the people's income

will increase, and will significantly increase
economic growth in the city of Medan.

CONCLUSION

From the results of this research, the conclusion

that exists is that the GDP and investment variables

partially influence the local economic growth of
Medan City and influence the income of the people

of Medan City. Simultaneously, the GRDP and

investment variables influence the local economic
growth of Medan City through the income variable

of the people of Medan City as an intervening
variable.
