Abstract

The rise of negative news involving Indonesian National Army members has caused a decline in the image of the TNI. One of the issues that is of concern to the community today is the bad actions carried out by unscrupulous members of the Indonesian National Army in various regions. The use of the Instagram social media platform by the Indonesian National Army Information Centre is considered an effort to improve the image of Indonesian National Army agencies. The purpose of this study is to understand how Indonesian National Army Information Centre identifies specific problems or challenges in its efforts to build and maintain a positive image of the Indonesian National Army on Instagram. The research method used was qualitative, involving three people from the internal Indonesian National Army Information Centre in the field of Information and Internet, one lecturer who is an expert in the field of public relations, and three followers of the Indonesian National Army Information Centre’s Instagram account as external informants, two of whom is Indonesian National Army Information Centre’s staff. The results showed that the Indonesian National Army Information Centre had followed several stages proposed by Cutlip, Centre and Broom. However, in terms of activities on social media, especially Instagram, it still needs to be improved because the content is considered less varied and the way the Indonesian National Army conveys information and interacts with the public on Instagram still seems rigid.

Abstract

 The city of Semarang, as the capital of Central Java Province, has great tourism potential. There are various forms of tourism there, ranging from nature tourism to historical tourism, wildlife tourism, religious tourism, and others. Several tourist villages in the city of Semarang have been built, but their marketing is still not optimal. So the target number of tourist visits to the tourist village is still not as expected. In fact, various forms of tourist objects and villages can contribute to improving the economy of the surrounding community and Semarang City's locally generated revenue. To achieve this target, a digital-based tourism promotion strategy is needed. So here we will examine the urgency of media digitalization in order to improve the image of local wisdom-based tourist villages with a case study in the Kandri Tourism Village. This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach chosen to clearly explain the strategy for developing media digitalization to improve the image of local wisdom-based tourist villages in Semarang City. The data collection technique uses interviews and direct observation with informants in the Kandri Tourism Village. Then the research results showed that tourism based on local wisdom and the active role of the community were initiated by the Kandri Tourism Village Pokdarwis in packaging creative digital tourism promotions that could increase tourist visits. The right digital branding of Dewi Kandri is able to increase the positive image of the Kandri tourist village in the eyes of the public as a local wisdom-based tourist destination in Semarang City.
