Abstract

This study aims to analyze the development of health tourism in Indonesia through a comparison with Penang, Malaysia, as one of the main medical tourism destinations for Indonesian patients. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with three Indonesian patients who had received medical treatment in both Indonesia and Penang, along with accompanying family members. Secondary data were collected from academic journals, government reports, media publications, and regulations related to healthcare and tourism sectors. The findings indicate that Indonesian patients prefer medical treatment in Penang due to better healthcare service quality, professionalism of medical personnel, efficient hospital systems, competitive medical costs, and the ability of healthcare staff to communicate in the Indonesian language. Accessibility, service convenience, and Penang’s positive image as a trusted medical tourism destination also influence patient decisions. The study highlights that the development of health tourism in Indonesia requires strong government support, improvement of hospital quality, strengthening of healthcare human resources, and integration between healthcare and tourism sectors to enhance national competitiveness.

Abstract

This study examines culturally grounded English interpretation as a strategic capability for sustainable tourism entrepreneurship in Lake Toba, Indonesia. Rather than viewing English merely as a translation or service-communication tool, the study conceptualises interpretation as a place-based entrepreneurial capability through which Batak cultural knowledge can be communicated to international tourists, transformed into innovative tourism experiences, and connected to locally retained value. An interpretive qualitative case-study design was employed. Participants were purposively selected from cultural custodians, traditional leaders, tourism entrepreneurs, tour guides, destination managers, community representatives, and tourists with direct experience of cultural tourism in the Lake Toba region. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, non-participant observation, and analysis of English-language tourism materials and digital content. Reflexive thematic analysis combined inductive and deductive coding. The findings show that literal translation may communicate visible elements of Batak heritage while failing to convey their historical, social, symbolic, spiritual, and relational meanings. Effective interpretation therefore requires community-based cultural co-creation to ensure authenticity, protect culturally sensitive knowledge, maintain local differentiation, and preserve community control over representation. The study identifies culturally grounded English capability as integrating cultural knowledge, communicative English, storytelling, intercultural sensitivity, digital competence, ethical judgement, and product-development awareness. These capabilities support opportunity recognition and innovation in guided experiences, workshops, homestays, geo-cultural trails, audio guides, and digital heritage content. The study proposes a process-oriented model linking community co-creation, interpretation, opportunity recognition, product innovation, local value creation, and sustainable tourism entrepreneurship.

Abstract

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to improve the service competency of restaurant staff at Ecolodge Mbeliling, East Nusa Tenggara, as part of efforts to strengthen human resource capacity in sustainable tourism management. The main problems encountered were low basic service skills and the lack of implementation of standard operating procedures (SOPs) among the local workforce. The implementation method used an experiential, participatory training approach, including theory sessions, demonstrations, SOP implementation simulations, and pre- and post-test evaluations. The results showed a 22% increase in participants' average scores, from 56% in the pre-test to 78% in the post-test. In addition to cognitive improvements, participants also demonstrated positive changes in professional behavior, discipline, interpersonal communication, and awareness of sustainable service principles. These findings strengthen empirical evidence that a practice- and reflection-based training model effectively develops service competencies in the community-based hospitality sector. This activity is expected to serve as a replication model for similar training programs in other ecotourism destinations and to strengthen the role of higher education in community empowerment, in line with the principles of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8 on decent work and economic growth.

With the addition of innovation capability, the impact of total knowledge management on performance and the work environment on performance will grow. Pokdarwis performance is influenced by knowledge management and the work environment. This last goal can be realized by a modern management approach that promotes long-term village development activities, as evidenced by increased production, the development of a large base of devoted tourists, and long-term improvements. One type of change necessitates enhancing organizational competence by providing additional dynamic capacities such as the ability to innovate, expand managerial expertise, and create a positive work environment where good performance can be achieved and maintained. village tourism, innovation capability, work environment, knowledge management
