TOURISM POLICY IMPLEMENTATION IN INCREASING REGIONAL GENUINE INCOME

Abstract

The tourism sector in Indonesia is currently relied on as an alternative sector to boost the Indonesian economy because the two sectors that have been relied on so far, namely the industrial sector and the agricultural sector, tend to stagnate. In its development, the tourism sector in Indonesia faces various problems. The purpose of the research in this paper is to analyze tourism policies in increasing local revenue and the problems faced by the tourism sector and how to solve them. This study aims to analyze the Implementation of Tourism Policy in Increasing Regional Original Income. The type of research used in this study is literature rivew with data collection methods by searching for articles, mapping topics, then analyzing topics. The results of the study show that the contribution of the tourism sector in increasing regional own-source revenue is very large in the form of its contribution to the economy, foreign exchange earnings, and employment. While some of the problems faced by the tourism sector: overlapping regulations, lack of quality human resources, lack of publications, not good infrastructure, still lack of investment. Based on these problems, policies are proposed to overcome these problems, namely eliminating overlapping regulations, increasing the number of certified human resources, incentives for investors in the tourism sector, and strict law enforcement for violations that cause environmental damage. For further research, research with a more detailed object is proposed.
