Abstract

The abstract should summarize the contents of the paper in short terms, i.e. 150-250 wordsThe realization of the financing infrastructure development for Mandalika Special Economic Zone (Mandalika SEZ) through a foreign debt scheme, financed by Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, has caused various problems such as human rights, social, economic, and environmental issues. This debt problem has received resistance at the grassroots level and is indicated to be included in the category of illicit debt. Therefore, this research aims to explain the reasons behind the policy of financing infrastructure development in Mandalika SEZ through foreign debt schemes. The research uses an analytical descriptive research method and is carried out through several stages, namely data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. By using theory of loan pull and theory of loan push, this research puts forward the main argument that the policy of financing infrastructure development in Mandalika SEZ through foreign debt schemes is due to the pull factor, which consists of an offer of a foreign debt loan sourced from AIIB, and the push factor, which is caused by pressures from business groups in Indonesia.
