Abstract

Indonesia is well-known for its geotourism, offering various geological and geomorphologic attractions and destinations. Geotourism in Indonesia fosters environment, heritage, aesthetics, culture, and the community's well-being. In addition, Indonesia ranked second in the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) Rankings by Crescent Rating. Indonesia performs well in providing prayer places, having free faith restrictions, increasing stakeholder awareness, and delivering general safety. However, there must be a comprehensive integration between these two excellences (geotourism and halal tourism). There are only a few insights about combining halal tourism and geotourism. Geotourism represents the role of the environment, not only being of service to humans but also worshipping God. Unfortunately, some geotourism places are prone to impropriety, do not provide a place for prayer, and have leisurely access to meals forbidden by Islamic law (haram). One of the main factors of this is the role of the stakeholders. This study collects secondary data to be analyzed by qualitative analysis to develop halal geotourism in Indonesia. Halal geotourism needs to adopt the excellent accomplishment of Indonesia in the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) and utilize the emerging Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) trend. ESG can be the consideration in planning the strategy of making immigration for international tourists efficient, raising stakeholder awareness, ensuring safety, and providing Muslim-friendly facilities in geotourism. ESG perspective can be incorporated in bettering the lousy performance in GMTI, such as providing connectivity, strengthening communication proficiency, continuously creating innovations, implementing sustainability, and presenting unique experiences. As a result, halal geotourism with the ESG as the base perspective will accelerate geotourism development in Indonesia and help achieve halal tourism development goals.

Abstract

Over the past few years, halal tourism has experienced rapid development worldwide. Halal tourism is present as a unique tourism concept and promotes Islamic law. Halal tourism also provides an accelerator for economic growth in a country. In addition, the projected presence of Muslim tourists will reach 140 million in 2023 and 160 million in 2024. Many countries with Muslim-majority populations are competing to develop halal tourism. However, until now, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey have become the most competitive countries in developing world halal tourism according to the "halal tourist destination countries" event organized by the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI). In this event, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey from 2019, 2021, and 2022 have always been the top 4 ranking countries. The purpose of this study is to analyze the development of halal tourism in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey. This study's data sources came from journal articles, books, institutional publications, and websites. The results show that the development of halal tourism in Malaysia is still ahead of Indonesia and Turkey. This research uses a qualitative approach through a literature review on halal tourism in Indonesia and how it is practised in various countries. The main recommendation in this research is that the Indonesian government must focus on improving visitor visit aspects, sustainability, connectivity, and unique experiences in developing halal tourism. In addition, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey need to maintain and improve the quality of halal tourism to become the best practice for developing halal tourism in various countries.

Abstract

OVID-19 has shut down various sectors of human life, including the possibility of traveling from place to place. Indonesia, also affected by COVID-19, experienced a significant decrease in foreign exchange due to the decline in tourism sector activities. Indonesia, also known as a country with a majority Muslim population, is usually the leading destination for halal tourism, with the number of Muslim tourists as much as 18.24% of all tourists who come to Indonesia. However, as the impact of COVID-19, the number of Muslim tourists from other countries declined dramatically in 2020, along with the drop in foreign flights. Domestic Muslim tourists also witnessed a downturn. Indonesia was ranked as the best halal tourism country in 2019. As COVID-19 hit hard, Indonesia became the 4th number in the ranking. But in 2022, Indonesia became the second-best country with halal tourism. To revive the tourism sector, many integrated programs for implementing health protocols are required to enhance the economy in the tourism industry, particularly halal tourism. This article aims to find out the strategy for Indonesia to revive the halal tourism sector during COVID-19. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with data collection techniques used in the literature study. The study results stated that the strategy to revive the halal tourism sector from the COVID-19 pandemic consists of 2 stages, recovery (Preparing Destinations Industry, Institutions, and Marketing) and normalization (Promote Dimensions of Halal Tourism). The GMTI of Indonesia proves that it increased the communication component, especially the destination marketing aspect. The enthusiastic community expects the implementation of this program to return to reinvigorate the tourism sector, especially halal tourism.

Abstract

Miné-Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau Geopark is a National Geopark in Japan, aiming to become a UNESCO Global Geopark. Late Paleozoic limestone is the most important geological heritage in this geopark. This limestone originates from a coral reef formed at the top of a submarine volcano born in Early Carboniferous. Due to oceanic plate movements, it continued to move for about 80 million years and arrived at the trench near Japan in middle Permian. The coral reef was detached from the volcano and was accreted into Eastern Asian continental margin. This limestone emerged on the surface of the earth due to the ascent and scraping of the continental margins and now forms the karst plateau. On the surface of the earth, there is a beautiful karst plateau where a semi-natural grassland is maintained by the annual mountain-burning. There are more than 400 limestone caves underground, three of which are open to tourists at all times. The main geotourism activity is a guided geotour of the karst plateau. At the Geopark Center, several trained geoguides are waiting to guide you through the beautiful scenery while explaining the origins of the karst plateau and limestone caves according to the needs of tourists. For small numbers of wealthy tourists, underground lake exploration geotours are available, supported by experts trained in cave exploration. Universally accessible tourism is a form of travel designed for everyone to be able to enjoy it, with the goal of enabling everyone to participate without hesitation, even people of advanced age or people with disabilities. We conducted a special wheelchair operation training, and in 2021 we conducted a geotour where people with disabilities who cannot move from the neck down can enjoy the limestone cave despite many ups and downs and stairs.

Abstract

Green Turtle, Chelonia mydas, or “penyu hijau” is an endangered species that can be found in the area of Geopark Ciletuh-Palabuhanratu, West Java. This Geopark has become the UNESCO Global Geopark since 2018. One location where the Green turtles can be found is Pangumbahan Beach, Ciracap District, Sukabumi Regency. The conservation management area is about 58.43 hectares while the length of the beach is about 2,300 m. Pangumbahan Beach’s geological characteristic is unique, consisting of specific sand called silica or quartz sand, whereas the coastline directly faces the Pacific Ocean. The important vegetation communities in the area are composed of herbs, shrubs, and some tree species. These factors make the beach the favorite nesting ground for turtles. However, some local communities still feed and sell turtle eggs, making them the favorite dish for religious offerings. During the past several years the number of turtles that nest and successfully hatch has decreased. Several factors are thought to cause this decline such as beach abrasion, the market for turtle eggs, and so on. The data of the turtle eggs collected from the beach and kept in the hatchery were examined. The number of eggs that successfully hatched was also studied. The study explains the relationship between the geological, cultural, and biodiversity aspects of the turtle nesting ground and the successful hatchlings rate

Abstract

Easier internet access makes space and time boundaries in the real world no longer significant challenges in the virtual world. This means that tourists do not always have to physically visit the places they want. Digital tourism has become a new realm that is positively growing in the current era. Unfortunately, even though this is in great demand in various parts of the world, Indonesia is still not fully exploiting (in positive terms) this potential. Geospatial data and technology can be the primary key in solving these problems and opening broader development potential although data utilization and optimization of existing geospatial technology still need improvement. The various existing innovations are still relatively conventional and do not attract youngsters’ attention. An advanced but fun project is, therefore, needed to bridge geospatial experts, creative innovators, and the youth to develop and accelerate digital tourism in Indonesia. Gamification is a promising solution to this problem. This research uses the 4D method (define, design, develop, disseminate). The gamification resulting from the 4D method is used by researchers as an instrument to compare with conventional tourism media to determine public interest and promotional reach for traveling to Indonesia. The primary data used in this project is the Indonesia Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data. The first part of the results discusses the gamification model that the researchers propose. This model uses Minecraft as a basis for gamification in implementing the exploitable open-world concept. The second part of the results discusses the validation and potential of the gamification that the researchers created through the triangulation of survey data, interviews, and literature.

Abstract

Malaka Village is located in the southwest part of North Lombok Regency. The natural beauty of wavy landscape along coastal area has attracted many tourist-accommodation investments took place in this village, although this brings up a dilemma since the potential economic growth in this place faces a complex natural hazard, especially landslides. The purpose of this study is to get an overview of landslide hazard and examine location suitability of tourist accommodation sites in this area, which can later be used as a reference in advocating disaster risk reduction (DRR) measures. The method used in determining landslide hazard index is spatial (GIS) technique that accommodates variables of: slope rise, rock type, land cover, and rainfall. Based on the weighted overlay result, it is concluded that landslides in Malaka can be devastating (dominated by high hazard), which is confirmed by landslide occurrences at the end of 2022 that were very close to the accommodation sites. Also, an occurrence in 2021 has killed a resident in this village. Digital data on tourism-business locations within this area were taken from online platforms and combined with the findings of a geospatial-based landslide analysis. Based on the suitability analysis through an overlay and buffering operation towards accommodation-location and landslide-hazard layer, it is found that 6 of 30 accommodation sites in Malaka are categorized as low suitability accommodation or dominated by a high and very high hazard category. After comparing landslide features on a related literature and characteristics of past landslides in this area, it is suggested that landslides in Malaka are in form of translational-landslide and rockfall type. Collaborative mitigation efforts that are adapted to the landslide hazard problems are urgently needed to prevent high risks in the future.

Abstract

The area of interest is located on Rupat Island, in the north of the Central Sumatra Basin, and faces directly the Malacca Strait, specifically in the North Rupat District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province, with the development of natural tourism objects and attractions. The geology of this area consists of two main formations, namely the Old Superficial Sedimentation Formation (QP) consisting of silt, clay, gravel, and plant residues, and the formation of young sedimentation (QH) consists of clay, silt, slippery gravel, residual plants, and peat swamps. There is also silica sand that is only found on the coastline in the north of Rupat Island, which is greatly influenced by the current of the Malacca Strait as a sediment transportation agent from Indian Ocean and South China Sea. There is a fault structure along with the silica sand deposition creating the main objects of geotourism that are found in the northern Rupat area in the form of Lapin Beach, Pesona Beach, Tanjung Api Beach, and Beting Aceh Beach. To visit the geotourism area both road and sea by boat, also made supporting facilities such as homestays, local road points, and signboard. There is also a diversity of flora and fauna in the form of pine trees, and mangrove forests, mammals such as deer, birds such as hombills, crows, and primates such as long-tailed monkeys, beruk and lutung are quite easy to find along the mangrove forest. There is a diversity of Malay cultures such as Zapin Dance and Safar Bathing. This research was aiming to develop geotourism prospects that have not been explored and create new potential for tourism products in North Rupat, Rupat Island.
