We apply the panel regression model and analyze the impact of the real depreciation of Rupiah on the trade performance, both in the short run and the long run.The study indicates the insignificant of the Rupiah real depreciation to boost the export performance in the short run. When the time horizon is long enough, the increase of the export caused by depreciation, will offset the increase of the import, hence in the long run the real depreciation of Rupiah may significantly increase the trade performance, but still in small number. The result of the study show depreciation of Rupiah real exchange rate has boosted current account in the long run, where the elasticity of real effective exchange rete was 2,86 greather than 1. The implication is clear for the policy maker; if the aim of the policy is to boost the trade performance, then the exchange rate policy should not be an alternative, rather using policy to increase the productivity, efficiency, product quality management, loose tax policy and the creation of the bussiness climate. This includes the industrial re-structuring to lower the import dependences.

This quantitative analysis applies random effect method to test the hypothesis. This method has an advantage because it able to explain the variance of characteristic of each province behaviors of human development. The results show quite significance influence among household consumption for food and non-food, government expenditure for education, headcount of poverty ratio and economic crisis to human development in Indonesia.
