Rahmad Kurnia Abdik Nasution, Sitti Nurlaeli — Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Business tourism, particularly the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector, has played a crucial role in enhancing the competitiveness of tourism destinations. This study analyzed the role of business tourism in strengthening Medan’s destination competitiveness from the perspective of students in the Tourism Study Program at Universitas Katolik Santo Thomas. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys with students and qualitative interviews with industry practitioners and academics. The findings indicated that while Medan’s MICE infrastructure is relatively adequate, it remains suboptimal for attracting large-scale international events. The destination’s promotional strategies were found to be ineffective, and stakeholder collaboration lacked cohesion. Students were identified as having significant potential to support business tourism digitalization through technology-driven marketing innovations. The ABDIK (Business Tourism Digital Activation by Students) concept was introduced as a novel approach to empower students in MICE development. The study concluded that business tourism is a strategic driver for destination competitiveness but requires stronger synergy among the government, industry, academia, and local communities to achieve sustainable growth.

Lonjakan kunjungan wisatawan ke Tanah Lot, Bali, menimbulkan tantangan dalam pengelolaan sampah dan pencemaran lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji strategi pengelolaan sampah, perilaku wisatawan, dan keterlibatan masyarakat lokal dalam upaya menjaga kebersihan lingkungan. Objek dalam penelitian ini adalah wisatawan domestik dan asing, serta masyarakat lokal di kawasan Tanah Lot. Variabel yang diteliti meliputi infrastruktur pengelolaan sampah, kesadaran lingkungan wisatawan, dan partisipasi masyarakat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif melalui wawancara terhadap 10 wisatawan, 1 pengelola, serta observasi dan dokumentasi lapangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dominasi sampah plastik sekali pakai, infrastruktur yang belum merata, dan rendahnya kesadaran lingkungan wisatawan lokal dibandingkan wisatawan asing. Partisipasi masyarakat lokal dinilai masih minim, sehingga perlu ditingkatkan melalui edukasi dan program berbasis komunitas. Rekomendasi penelitian ini meliputi peningkatan fasilitas pemilahan sampah, media edukasi, serta kolaborasi lintas pihak untuk menciptakan pengelolaan sampah yang berkelanjutan dan mendukung kualitas wisata di Tanah Lot.

Perbandingan Penerimaan Pajak Sektor Pariwisata Sebelum dan Sesudah Krisis Kesehatan Global

Catur Martian, Indri Rahmat Tunisa — Mon, 02 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The period of crisis posed a serious threat across various regions of Indonesia, affecting not only public health but also the stability of the national economy. The continuous surge in cases compelled the government to implement strategic measures through the enactment of Social Restriction policies. Although aimed at safeguarding public health, these measures inadvertently led to a slowdown, and in some cases, a temporary halt in numerous economic activities. The impact of these policies was particularly evident in the tourism sector, which experienced a significant decline in its contribution to regional tax revenues—especially from hotel, restaurant, and entertainment taxes. This study aims to evaluate and compare the significant differences in tax revenues from these three business sectors before and after the crisis. Using a quantitative approach with a comparative method, the study processes numerical data, which is then statistically analyzed to obtain an objective and accurate overview. The results of the analysis reveal a substantial difference in the amount of tax revenue from hotels, restaurants, and entertainment businesses between the pre-crisis and post-crisis periods, highlighting the considerable impact of the crisis on these sectors

Polemik Kepemilikan Asing di Industri Pariwisata: Antara Investasi dan Kedaulatan

Acep Rohendi — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 05:58:23 +0000

Industri pariwisata merupakan salah satu sektor strategis dalam perekonomian Indonesia yang memiliki potensi besar untuk menarik investasi asing langsung (Foreign Direct Investment/FDI). Namun, masuknya kepemilikan asing dalam industri ini memunculkan polemik antara kebutuhan akan pertumbuhan ekonomi dan perlindungan terhadap kedaulatan nasional. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dinamika kepemilikan asing di sektor pariwisata, dengan menyoroti keuntungan ekonomi yang ditawarkan oleh investasi asing serta risiko yang dapat mengancam kedaulatan negara, khususnya dalam hal penguasaan sumber daya lokal, arah kebijakan, dan identitas budaya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan konseptual, untuk mengkaji berbagai regulasi terkait, seperti Undang-Undang Penanaman Modal, Undang-Undang Kepariwisataan, serta Peraturan Presiden tentang Daftar Positif Investasi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun FDI memberikan kontribusi terhadap pembangunan infrastruktur dan penciptaan lapangan kerja, lemahnya regulasi dan pengawasan dapat menyebabkan dominasi asing atas aset strategis nasional. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan kebijakan yang seimbang antara mendorong investasi dan menjaga kedaulatan. Artikel ini memberikan rekomendasi strategis bagi pembuat kebijakan untuk menata ulang regulasi kepemilikan asing agar tetap berpihak pada kepentingan nasional.

The tourism industry is one of Indonesia’s strategic economic sectors with significant potential to attract foreign direct investment (FDI). However, the influx of foreign ownership in this sector raises a polemic between the need for economic growth and the protection of national sovereignty. This article aims to analyze the dynamics of foreign ownership in the tourism sector by highlighting the economic benefits of foreign investment and the risks it poses to sovereignty, particularly in terms of control over local resources, policy direction, and cultural identity. This study employs a normative legal research method, using statutory and conceptual approaches to examine relevant regulations, including the Investment Law, Tourism Law, and Presidential Regulations on the Positive Investment List. The findings reveal that although FDI contributes to infrastructure development and job creation, weak regulation and oversight can lead to foreign dominance over strategic national assets. Therefore, a balanced policy is needed to encourage investment while safeguarding sovereignty. This article provides strategic recommendations for policymakers to revise foreign ownership regulations in a way that protects national interests.

Pengaruh Waktu Tunggu Antrian terhadap Kepuasan dan Niat Berkunjung Kembali di Kopi Klotok

This study aims to analyze the effect of waiting time duration on tourists' intention to revisit, with a particular emphasis on the mediating role of tourist satisfaction. Data were collected through a survey of tourists and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results show that waiting time duration has a significant effect on tourist satisfaction, which subsequently influences their intention to return (path coefficient = 0.451, p = 0.000). These findings confirm that tourist satisfaction acts as an important mediator in the relationship between waiting time and revisit intention. Therefore, effective waiting time management not only enhances satisfaction but also contributes to the development of tourist loyalty toward the destination. Optimizing waiting time becomes a key strategy in creating positive and sustainable tourism experiences.
