FDI has positive impact on employment in service sector. GDP has positive impact on employment in manufacturing, construction and service sectors. While GDP in the agricultural and mining sectors has negative impact on employment. The wage has a positive impact on employment in the mining and agricultural sectors. ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AFTA) that took place in 2010 has a positive impact on employment in the manufacturing and mining sectors.Foreign Direct Investment is one factor to overcome employment issues in ASEAN 5, especially in service sector. While GDP becomes an important variable in enhancing ASEAN 5 employment in the manufacturing, construction and services. Increasing wages can be applied on agriculture and mining as it has a positive impact on employment. AFTA that has taken place is proper policy for the ASEAN 5 to encourage economic growth in the mining and manufacturing sectors that have an impact on increasing demand of labor in the sector.
