Abstract

Background. Kacirebonan Palace is a tourist destination in Cirebon City that offers cultural attractions, building attractions, typical food, and drinks, making it an attraction for tourists visiting Cirebon City. Purpose. This study aims to determine the influence of facilities and infrastructure owned by the Kacirebonan Palace on the satisfaction of tourists who come to the Kacirebonan Palace Method. The study used a quantitative method in SPSS version 23 to determine the influence of variables, using questionnaire data collected from 97 people who attended the Kacirebonan Palace, and employed accidental sampling. Conclusion. The results of this study indicate that facilities and infrastructure significantly influence tourist satisfaction at the Kacirebonan Palace, although the Palace still needs to improve its provision of adequate facilities and infrastructure for visitors.

Abstract

Purpose – This research aims to formulate a strategy for the development of religious and cultural tourism in Cirebon City based on technology and innovation, as an effort to answer today's challenges and maximize the existing potential in a sustainable and inclusive manner. Methods: The research was conducted using a descriptive, quantitative method. The research sample comprised 165 respondents, including visitors, individuals, and tourism-related parties. A purposive sampling approach was used. Data analysis is performed in Microsoft Excel. Result: The management of religious and cultural tourism in Cirebon City has significant potential in its history and palace heritage, but its development remains hampered by limited infrastructure, low-quality human resources (HR), and suboptimal technology adoption and integration across stakeholders. Conclusion - To optimize the potential of tourism in the digital era, it is necessary to have a sustainable tourism development strategy that must rely on technological innovation and cross-sector collaboration between the government, tourism managers, and tourism actors.

Abstract

Aims. This study investigates the effectiveness of Ethno-Project-Based Learning (E-PjBL) integrated with Cirebon Mask Dance (Tari Topeng Cirebon) as an ethnoscience context in enhancing students’ creative thinking skills and science process skills. Methods. Employing a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group model, this research involved 72 junior secondary school students (Grade VIII) in Cirebon, West Java, Indonesia, divided into an experimental group (n = 36) receiving E-PjBL instruction and a control group (n = 36) receiving conventional inquiry-based learning. Data were collected using the validated Creative Thinking Skills Test (CTST), which assesses Torrance’s four dimensions (fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration), and the Science Process Skills Assessment (SPSA), which encompasses observing, classifying, predicting, hypothesizing, experimenting, and communicating. Statistical analyses using ANCOVA, N-gain scores, and effect size (Cohen’s d) revealed that the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher gains in creative thinking skills (ΔM = 18.73; p < .001; d = 1.42) and science process skills (ΔM = 21.46; p < .001; d = 1.67) compared to the control group. Result. Thematic qualitative analysis of student project artifacts and reflective journals further confirmed that the cultural symbolism embedded in the Cirebon Mask Dance, particularly its philosophical motifs that represent natural phenomena, served as authentic, meaningful stimuli for scientific inquiry and creative ideation. Conclusion. These findings establish E-PjBL as a culturally responsive pedagogical framework that bridges indigenous ecological knowledge with formal science education, offering a replicable model for ethnoscience integration in multicultural science classrooms.

Abstract

Background. The growth of tourism in Bali has become a complex and multidimensional phenomenon, where the increase in tourist numbers has a significant economic impact but also triggers environmental, social, and cultural pressures. Overtourism occurs when the number of tourists exceeds a destination's carrying capacity, creating an imbalance in the system. Empirical studies show that the post-pandemic surge in tourism has a positive economic impact but also increases pressure on the environment and infrastructure. Aims. This research develops a dynamic logistics growth-based mathematical model to explain the relationship between the number of tourists and the capacity to accommodate in Bali's tourism system. The model is formulated as a nonlinear differential system in which capacity is treated as a time variable. Results. The results of the analysis show that carrying capacity is dynamic and degrades as tourist pressure accumulates. Conclusion. This study introduces the concept of effective capacity and shows that overtourism is an endogenous phenomenon in the tourism system.

Abstract

Aims. This research aims to understand how food ingredient procurement in Food Production at Hotel Melia Makassar operates and to identify the obstacles encountered. Methods. The research method is qualitative, with data collected through interviews and documentation. Result. The results of this research indicate that procurement of food ingredients is carried out through a systematic process, beginning with planning based on the Daily Market List (DML). This process, prepared by the kitchen team, involves the purchasing team's verification and supplier selection, the creation and delivery of Purchase Orders (PO), and the receiving team's receipt and inspection of materials in collaboration with the kitchen team. The food storage system strictly adheres to the First In, First Out (FIFO) principle, with clear storage zone divisions, including dry storage, chiller, and freezer, to ensure the quality and freshness of food ingredients. The main obstacles identified in this study include irregularities in the ordering process due to sudden order requests from the kitchen team, delivery delays from suppliers, discrepancies between the quality of received materials and established specifications, and challenges in managing food stock. Conclusion. Based on these findings, this research provides several strategic recommendations to improve food procurement efficiency in the hospitality industry, including enhancing interdepartmental coordination, implementing a more modern inventory system, conducting periodic evaluations of supplier performance, and developing staff capacity through structured training programs.

Abstract

Abstract. The phenomenon of marriage taboos between the Javanese and Sundanese ethnic groups serves as an example of a blend of myths, legends, and folktales. These myths influence the beliefs and attitudes of those who hold them. Aims. The aim of this research is to understand modern society's perspectives on the taboo myths surrounding marriage between the Javanese and Sundanese, as communicated through symbolic interactions by local leaders in Yogyakarta, Surabaya, and Bandung. Methods. This study employs a qualitative descriptive research design to describe the phenomenon of these taboos, drawing on detailed data collected in line with the research problem formulation. The findings indicate that, as part of the social reality, there still exists a small group of modern society who believe in these myths, while others are beginning to abandon the taboo myths surrounding Javanese-Sundanese marriages through the symbolic communication of street names by local leaders in Yogyakarta, Surabaya, and Bandung. Conclusion. The data also shows that Javanese-Sundanese marriages do not pose a problem for divorce. This reality suggests that the passage of time will align with the persistence of myths, which will continue to thrive within Indonesian society's culture.
