Abstract

Permasalahan rendahnya pemanfaatan potensi budaya lokal di Desa Wisata Pamulung, Kabupaten Sumbawa, yang belum dikelola secara optimal untuk menangkap peluang unik dari pasar wisatawan kapal pesiar. Kondisi ini menyebabkan masyarakat lokal belum menjadi pelaku utama yang dapat merasakan manfaat ekonomi langsung dari pariwisata. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk mengoptimalkan potensi atraksi budaya "Barapan Kebo" dan seni pertunjukan lainnya melalui pendampingan pengembangan paket wisata dengan pendekatan Community Based Tourism (CBT). Kegiatan dilakukan sejak 30 September hingga 1 Oktober 2025. Mitra dalam kegiatan ini adalah Kelompok Sadar Wisata (Pokdarwis) "Pamulung Lestari", pemilik kerbau, dan pemuda desa berjumlah 10 orang. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan partisipatif (Participatory Action Research) yang melibatkan serangkaian tahapan sistematis, mulai dari observasi awal dan sosialisasi untuk membangun komitmen bersama, dilanjutkan dengan peningkatan kapasitas melalui pelatihan praktis mengenai manajemen atraksi, standar keamanan, teknik storytelling, dan hospitality dasar. Proses ini kemudian dilanjutkan dengan lokakarya co-design melalui Diskusi Kelompok Terarah (FGD) untuk merancang detail paket wisata, dan diakhiri dengan pendampingan intensif melalui simulasi hingga implementasi penerimaan wisatawan. Hasil utama dari kegiatan ini menunjukkan keberhasilan dalam tiga aspek: pertama, terbentuknya paket wisata budaya ‘Pamulung Buffalo Experience’ yang terstruktur dan siap jual; kedua, terbentuknya Kelompok Sadar Wisata (Pokdarwis) sebagai kelembagaan pengelola yang akan menjamin keberlanjutan; dan ketiga, peningkatan kapasitas masyarakat yang terbukti mampu secara profesional menyelenggarakan atraksi wisata yang aman dan menarik. Simpulan dari kegiatan ini menegaskan bahwa pengembangan pariwisata berbasis komunitas dapat menjadi strategi efektif untuk pemberdayaan ekonomi lokal, mentransformasikan aset budaya menjadi sumber pendapatan berkelanjutan sekaligus memperkuat identitas komunitas.

Abstract

This study investigates prohibitive speech acts and politeness strategies in Indonesian–English bilingual signage used in the LRT Jabodebek system from a pragmatic perspective. Prohibition signs in public transportation function not only as informational messages but also as regulatory tools that shape passenger behavior in order to maintain safety, order, and comfort. Adopting a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, the data consist of written prohibition signs collected from stations, train carriages, and supporting facilities through documentation techniques. The analysis is based on Speech Act Theory (Austin, 1962; Searle, 1975), the concepts of directness and indirectness (Blum-Kulka, House, & Kasper, 1989), and Brown and Levinson’s (1987) politeness theory. The findings show that prohibitive speech acts are realized through various linguistic forms, ranging from highly direct imperatives to more impersonal declarative constructions. Safety-related prohibitions tend to employ stronger illocutionary force, whereas comfort-related prohibitions incorporate politeness strategies as a form of mitigation. The use of bilingual signage also enhances clarity and accessibility for diverse passengers, supporting more effective public communication in multilingual transportation settings.
