Institutional Strengthening System and Regulations in the Development of Bongkasa Pertiwi Tourism Village, Badung Regency

Abstract

Bongkasa Pertiwi Village was designated as a tourism village starting in 2010 which is a step from Badung Regency in responding to challenges in the world of tourism. Its status as a tourist village for the last 10 years has grown several supporting tourism businesses such as rafting on the Ayung River, swing with river views and beautiful panoramas, paintball, ATV riding, homestay, and cycling. The existence of this business has not optimally provided a direct economic impact, such as the contribution to Bongkasa Pertiwi Village. On a different side, this business growth also raises various unresolved problems, such as unhealthy business competition that causes market prices to collapse, not having business licenses, labour protection, especially in determining salaries that are not following the Regency Minimum Wage and paying taxes. One way to overcome this problem is to form a Holding Company that can support several Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) in Bongkasa Pertiwi Village. The purpose of this research is to formulate an ideal institutional system, especially to vitalize the role of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDesa) in the existing economy in Bongkasa Pertiwi Village. The method of implementing this activity is to find supporting data through observation, interviews, and focus group discussions with related parties such as the Village Head, the Head of BUMDesa, the Head of the Bongkasa Village Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis), the Village Facilitator of Badung Regency and the tourism business owners in Bongkasa Pertiwi Village. This is done to solve problems to get common ground on two main problems, such as the absence of significant contributions to the village from existing tourism businesses and the problems that exist at the SME level in fact have caused several communications between villages and existing SMEs. Then held several meetings such as the implementation of a focus group discussion. After that, it was decided to make BUMDesa Mandala Sari as the holding company of several existing businesses. BUMDesa Mandala Sari has the authority as a holding company for the businesses it shelters by Article 24 of the Regulation of the Minister of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Areas, and Transmigration Number 4 of 2015. The results of this research were marked by the formation of a cooperation agreement between BUMDesa Mandala Sari and 12 SMEs, on 28 August 2020. In the agreement, it was agreed that BUMDesa is used as a holding company as a step in increasing the productivity and income of SMEs and making efforts to solve existing problems. In exercising its authority as a holding company, BUMDesa can carry out various efforts such as setting the basic price of products to prevent unfair competition that has occurred so far, seeking licenses for the businesses it shelters so that they can directly protect local workers who work for SMEs that are under shade BUMDesa. It is hoped that with this protection, local workers can receive income according to the minimum standard in Badung Regency. F...
