Abstract

The villages in the Slamet mountain area has two exciting sides, as it carries abundant potential but is prone to disasters. Fascinatingly, the local community can transform disaster-prone villages by hammering the development of potential natural tourism potential, bringing benefits for nature conservation and economic resilience. Therefore, this study aims to describe the disaster-prone village’s processes in developing their tourism potential into a source of socioeconomic and cultural resilience, as well as safe tourism. This qualitative research used purposive sampling for selecting the informant, while the data collection methods were carried out through in-depth interviews, observations, and focus group discussions (FGDs). Then, the interactive data analysis methods were adopted in analyzing the data, while data validity was examined through triangulation. The results show that the key to success in developing disaster-prone villages into safe tourism and environmental preservation is determined by community resilience and leadership, the development of pro-disaster villages into tourism potential with a social, economic, cultural, and environmental safety net, the success of village institutions to encourage community change. This study concludes that disaster-prone villages in the mountainous region of Slamet can turn threats into potential benefits for rural communities. Therefore, the presence of disaster areas is needed not only for concepts but as an example of implementations that benefit local communities.

Abstract

This study aims to compare tourism development in Thailand and Indonesia by analysing budgeting policies and governance arrangements across five dimensions: the role of universities, institutional design, governance model, budgetary policy, and development strategy. This issue is of particular significance, as budgeting policies constitute a pivotal instrument in reconciling macroeconomic stability with sectoral development; nevertheless, their implications for the tourism sector remain insufficiently examined within the comparative research literature. Using a comparative case study approach, this study employs thematic analysis of policy documents and qualitative interviews to generate in-depth insights. The findings demonstrate that tourism outcomes are shaped by budgetary orientation. This study advances comparative public policy scholarship by demonstrating how fiscal design enables or constrains sectoral governance capacity. In the case of Indonesia, a strong emphasis on macro-fiscal discipline engenders fragmented tourism financing structures alongside an adaptive Pentahelix model, wherein universities function as network mobilisers within a predominantly bottom-up strategic framework. In contrast, Thailand reflects a more institutionalised and state-led configuration, characterised by stable and protected tourism budgets anchored by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), with universities integrated as innovation nodes within a top-down, investment-driven paradigm. Overall, the study underscores budgeting policy as a critical determinant in shaping tourism governance configurations and development trajectories.
