Abstract

Prajak is crowned as the top 300 tourist villages at the 2022 Indonesian tourism village award. Prajak is a hamlet located in the Saleh Bay cluster, Sumbawa, so development in this area is directed as a marine tourism area. Even though it is named a tourist village, the tourism conditions in Prajak are still not optimal and have not been developed properly. The condition of the beach is still natural, but the lack of public awareness of tourism opportunities and the inadequate infrastructure of existing tourism infrastructure have resulted in marine tourism in prajak is not yet known by the public. In addition, the main problem is the rampant illegal fishing which has an impact on the destruction of coral reefs, the reduction of fishermen's catches, and the threat to fish sustainability. Therefore, the development of non-extractive, non-consumptive, and sustainable natural resources needs to be prioritized in the field of tourism so that marine ecotourism is the main choice. This study aims to design an appropriate marine ecotourism zoning in Prajak Sumbawa area based on its ecological potential, analyze the feasibility of community-based marine ecotourism, and create a community-based marine ecotourism management strategy in Prajak, Sumbawa Regency.

Abstract

Sumbawa is famous for its marine tourism, apart from the beauty of its beaches, Sumbawa also has marine fauna that attracts the attention of tourists, namely whale sharks. It is recorded that there are around 99 species of Whale Sharks located in Saleh Bay, Sumbawa. Thus, making Saleh Bay the location with the second largest whale shark population in Indonesia and UNESCO designated Saleh Bay as part of the SAMOTA biosphere reserve. Currently, whale sharks have protected fauna according to the decree of the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries No. 18 of 2013. This is due to the pollution of whale shark habitats by pollutants including garbage and microplastics. In addition, the Overexploitation of whale sharks is some of the causes of the significant decline in whale shark populations. Marine ecotourism activities in the form of exhibiting Whale Sharks to tourists can be an alternative way of sustainable use because it has minimal impact on individual Whale Sharks, in addition, marine ecotourism activities can also provide economic benefits to the Sumbawa community and regional development including supporting efforts to protect and preserve the whale shark fauna. The Study "Community-Based Whale Shark Conservation to Strengthen Marine Tourism Management in Sumbawa “aims to present a blue economy model for coastal communities in Sumbawa and increase community participation in conservation activities, as well as improve the welfare of coastal communities in Sumbawa.

Abstract

Studi ini mengkaji tingkat pengetahuan dan persepsi masyarakat terhadap biaya dan manfaat biofuel di sektor transportasi sebagai alternatif berkelanjutan untuk bahan bakar fosil. Studi ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif melalui survei yang dilakukan terhadap responden dari beberapa generasi: Gen Z, Gen Y, dan Gen X, yang memiliki kendaraan bermotor dan memiliki SIM. Data dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif, menggunakan tabel dan grafik untuk menilai pengetahuan tentang produksi biofuel dan implikasi ekonomi dan lingkungannya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas responden dari ketiga generasi memiliki tingkat pengetahuan yang tinggi tentang biofuel dan manfaat lingkungannya. Hal ini didukung oleh indeks persepsi masyarakat terkait manfaat lingkungan biofuel, kontribusinya dalam meminimalkan emisi, dan meningkatkan ketahanan energi, dengan indeks persepsi masing-masing sebesar 81%, 87%, dan 78%. Namun, penggunaan biofuel masih rendah karena dianggap biayanya tinggi dibandingkan dengan bahan bakar fosil, dengan indeks persepsi harga sebesar 61%. Rekomendasi untuk meningkatkan penggunaan biofuel di Indonesia meliputi peraturan dan kebijakan pemerintah yang mendukung, subsidi harga, pembangunan infrastruktur, dan pemantauan kualitas bahan bakar. Dukungan pemerintah sangat penting untuk membuat biofuel lebih terjangkau, mempopulerkannya sebagai bahan bakar alternatif, dan memberikan dampak positif terhadap lingkungan.
