families who have children who fit the ability of
families to meet basic needs, then they will have a
better quality of life. Government regulation related
to population growth is needed, so that the public
better understand the way that they can achieve
prosperous life. Developed countries began to
implement this population growth regimen.
Population migration is generally associated with
the availability of employment, the availability of
access to education, and the availability of other
public access. In developing countries, the
availability of employment, access to education and
other public access is inadequate. These conditions,
triggering populations that have the potential to
migrate from developing countries to more developed
countries. They think that they will have better
prosperity in the destination country than settled in
their home country. Thus will trigger the density of
the population in the destination country.
Economic concentration in a region, related to the
country in which a multinational company will
operate and conduct its production activities. The
company will choose production sites with several
alternative options, including: close to factors of
production, close to the market, good infrastructure
access and easy permitting access.
Close to the factors of production, related to
inputs to be used for production, both production
materials and labor. Generally companies will choose
close to production materials and with cheap labor
wages. This is related to the prediction of revenues
and expenses that must be issued company so that will
give profit for the company. Close to the market
associated with the ease of selling for the company.
Good infrastructure is related to the ease of
distribution of goods or services produced. Easy
access permissions related to the ease of opening a
business in a country. Economic concentration in a
country will cause population density in a country,
because people will migrate to the economically
centralized country in the hope that their welfare will
increase. Thus requires a common consensus that
multinational companies not only operate in one
particular country.
4 CONCLUSIONS
Important conclusions regarding the effect of
population density on economic growth from this
study is significantly population density negatively
effect on economic growth. Population density
increases will decreases economic growth.
The effect of population density that hampers
economic growth, requires government policy. These
policies include: provide access to adequate
infrastructure and easy to get it related to basic human
needs; Government regulation related to population
growth; Availability of employment, availability of
access to education, and availability of other public
access in developing country; And requires a
common consensus that multinational companies not
only operate in one particular country.
