Abstract

Traditional food from different parts of Indonesia is very diverse. However, the growth of Nusantara’s culinary business often faces problems, both in terms of legislation and competition with the growing foreign food business. Compared to food business laws in other countries that are more organized and supportive, Indonesian laws that regulate the protection and promotion of traditional foods are often uncompetitive. National food business law resistance to traditional Nusantara food is one of the obstacles to the growth of Nusantara's culinary business. More expert strategies are needed to improve the competitiveness of traditional food products as Indonesian traditional food trends continue to shift due to imported food. Behavioral theories that focus on perception, subjective norms, and behavioral control are used in this study to measure how millennials use Indonesian food. The results show that consumers have a good perception of local food. However, the lowest average value of all variables suggests that the perceptions of important people do not influence them dominantly in consuming local foods. Therefore, there is a need for efforts to raise public awareness and concern for traditional Nusantara food as well as to increase professionalism in the development of the Nusantara culinary business. Keywords: Nusantara's culinary business, food business law, traditional food, regulation, protection of intellectual property rights

Abstract

This study explores how destination attributes, such as accessibility, natural attractions, facilities, and disaster knowledge, influence tourists' risk perceptions, ultimately shaping their travel preparedness. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 806 tourists visiting a tsunami-prone beach destination in Indonesia. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was implemented in the analysis. The findings indicate that accessibility and well-developed tourist facilities tend to lower tourists’ perceived risk, while disaster knowledge heightens it, leading to improved preparedness. Tourists generally feel safer when destinations offer accessible amenities and infrastructure, yet this sense of security may inadvertently decrease their readiness for disasters. This situation creates a paradox: While enhanced accessibility and high-quality amenities contribute to visitor satisfaction, they can unintentionally lower risk perception and preparedness levels. The study challenges the conventional view that accessibility and amenities are inherently beneficial, highlighting the importance of balancing these attributes with proactive risk management strategies. Destination providers, destination management organizations (DMOs), and governments should enhance tourists’ disaster awareness through well-crafted guidelines, educational campaigns, and community engagement programs; these efforts help equip tourists with the necessary knowledge to respond effectively in emergency situations. At the same time, they contribute to the development of safer and more enjoyable tourist destinations.
