This tourism study analyzed the evidence of studies to identify marketing strategies for tourism products to foreign markets through the study and analysis of several international publications that discuss tourism promotion and marketing issues. The tourism business is the same as other businesses where it is very much tied to promotion and marketing in order to be able to survive and develop quickly to be known by potential foreign tourists. Therefore, we collected literature with the help of internet searches on some well-known publications such as Sagepub, Google Scholar, and other publications published in the last ten years. Then we analyzed it with a phenomenological approach starting from the data coding system, interpretation and evaluation until we found data findings that answered the core problem of this tourism study with the principle of high validity. Because this study depends on the literature, all of our data is found electronically following health protocol where there are public restrictions on Covid-19 response efforts. Based on the data and discussion, we conclude that the findings include tourism promotion and marketing strategies based on experts, an innovative and productive way to believe via the internet with several social media platforms and other websites. Thus, this finding becomes a significant contribution for many people.

Since the beginning of 2021, the Indonesian government's policy has been to enforce public activity restrictions (abbreviated as PPKM) in order to deal with Covid-19 pandemics in Indonesia. Public activity restrictions (PPKM) are in place in various places that are hotspots for Covid-19 infection, most notably on the Indonesian island of Java and Bali. The government took this effort to slow the spread of Corona Virus, or Covid-19. Prior to the implementation of this public activity restriction (PPKM) program, the government imposed large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) or lockdown zones in a number of places throughout Indonesia. The government was fully supported in implementing these public activity restrictions (PPKM) by the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), Police, and municipal police units (Satpol PP) as part of the Covid-19 Task Force. How effective these public activity restrictions (PPKM) are remains an open question for all stakeholders. However, the reality is that there are still numerous singers between the community and the Task Force on public activity restrictions (PPKM), resulting in damage to the community and a negative influence on society. Numerous human rights breaches and actions that contradict the nation's ideology, specifically Pancasila, result in a fall in community faith in the government.

This study aims to review the relationship between iron and zinc in diabetes mellitus and the effects of iron and zinc supplementation on changes in blood glucose levels. The results showed that diabetes mellitus was associated with low zinc levels and high levels of iron in body serum, as well as low iron levels in diabetes mellitus with iron deficiency anemia. Zinc supplementation in diabetes mellitus and iron in diabetes mellitus with iron deficiency anemia can reduce levels of fasting blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c. Nutritional therapy with zinc and iron supplements can decrease blood glucose levels with results that are influenced by dosage and period of supplementation. Screening for iron deficiency anemia needs to be done in diagnosing diabetes mellitus and implementing nutritional therapy with biomarkers of blood sugar levels in serum.
