“…Investigating spatial arrangement and landscaping is crucial as it can yield significant benefits for the community, the environment, and the sustainability of a business entity, particularly in the field of tourism [5,[10][11][12]. Maximizing landscape features and adhering to management standards are anticipated to enhance the overall quality of the environment [3,[13][14][15].…”

This research delves into the spatial arrangement and landscaping considerations for Pos Bloc Medan, an artificial tourist attraction. Employing a qualitative research design, the study assesses the facility’s adherence to tourism business standards stipulated in Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Regulation No. 4/2021. Findings indicate that elements such as “Special Business Requirements,” “Business Facilities,” and “Organizational Structure and HR” fall short of the prescribed standards. Several areas requiring improvement include the absence of emergency gathering points, limited community involvement, and suboptimal waste management. Recommendations for enhancement encompass routine health check-ups for employees, aligning with established norms for the operations of the tourism sector. Furthermore, the study presents a spatial proposal focusing on emergency gathering points to address safety, accessibility, and visual appeal concerns. The proposed assembly points not only bolster safety protocols but also contribute to enhancing the aesthetic appeal of Pos Bloc Medan, aligning with the objective of establishing a sustainable, multifunctional space. In conclusion, this research underscores the importance of meticulous spatial planning and strict regulatory adherence in optimizing tourist attractions, as exemplified by Pos Bloc Medan, for the betterment of the community, preservation of the environment, and sustainability of the tourism industry as a whole.

“…Those people who remained, supported by governmental contributions, experienced changes in the structure of local communities and in their approach to sea farming and fishing. The presence of young, highly educated volunteers (Toivonen 2013), neoliberal policies promoted by the Miyagi Prefecture (Wilhelm 2018), and the new media visibility of the Sanriku coast (Gasparri and Martini 2019) promulgated disaster tourism-i.e., the practice of visiting locations affected by environmental disasters (Martini and Buda 2018). In the course of this process, instances of entrepreneurship and personal gain aligned with the reconstruction and recovery of the sea farming infrastructure.…”

This article is a qualitative, ethnographically informed exploration of the relations between the Miyagi Oysters (Crassostrea gigas) and the diverse social actors of northeastern Japan (Tōhoku), namely local sea farmers, domestic immigrants, and tourists, in the aftermath of the 2011 “triple disaster” (the 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and related nuclear plant meltdown). I contend that the processes of post-disaster reconstruction have been significantly informed by the specific frames of human-oyster relations as they are developed in the sea farming bays of the municipality of Ishinomaki (Miyagi Prefecture). Individuating four fields of interest (environmental purity, experientiality, emic timeframes, and authenticity), I analyze the ongoing transformations prompted by the disaster on discourses of locality and self-representation and the interactions among local producers and non-local actors (visitors, volunteers, entrepreneurs) with the cycle of life of the Crassostrea. Within the interactions between locals and non-locals, the discursive characteristics of oyster sea farming in Miyagi are negotiated, shared, and contested through instances of transformative resilience during the progressive shift from “classic” modes of production towards the economies of domestic tourism, and the overlapping of local, bottom-up initiatives with organized top-down structures.
