The Pentahelix Model in the Development of Agro-Culture-Based Edutourism in the Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru Buffer Village Area (A Study in Tosari Village, Pasuruan Regency and Sapikerep Village, Probolinggo Regency)

Abstract

Tosari and Sapikerep villages are two villages in the TNBTS area which are included as one of the priority areas in Indonesia. Nature tourism or agro-tourism and cultural tourism are the characteristics of the two villages. Thus, Agro-Cultural based Edutourism is one of the potential developments in the village area. The pentahelix development model is considered appropriate because it is known that the two villages collaborate with 5 roles, namely government, private sector, academia, mass media, and the community. This article is the result of research conducted for 2 months using a qualitative method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and observations, where research was conducted to fully describe how the pentahelix collaboration pattern occurred. As a result, the role of various actors in the pentahelix collaboration model is quite optimal. From a regulatory perspective, the central government and regional governments have shown their role where basically the two villages have become part of the tourism priority villages which in terms of infrastructure are maximally supported by the central government. As well as with regard to licensing, it is very easy to take care of development permits and public facilities that support tourism businesses and make it easier for tourists. From the private sector, many companies and investors started arriving to work together in the two villages, through their Corporate Social Responsibility pattern. On the other hand, the media also plays an important role in efforts to introduce tourism potential so that it is more widely known by tourists, while academics work together in terms of planning that is in accordance with science, as well as the active role of the community which turns out to be open and mutually willing to build villages.

Integration of ecology and culture in encouraging village government innovation in the Bromo-Tengger-Semeru area

“…They build houses or parts of their fields and rent them out as accommodation for tourists who want to enjoy the sunrise in the early morning. They seize opportunities from the development of the tourism sector but still prioritize harmonization of the environment and society, so that horizontal conflicts can be avoided properly (Novy Setia Yunas et al, 2023).…”

“…However, this is not as easy as turning the palm of your hand, because the Tengger people have an unwritten rule not to easily sell their land to people from outside Tengger. The teachings of their ancestors say that it is feared that giving land to people outside Tengger will cause an imbalance between humans and nature in this area, so that until now only a small amount of land or accommodation is fully owned by people outside Tengger (Novy Setia Yunas et al, 2023).…”

“…The existence of hotels and resorts that are currently being built in the Tengger area is the result of joint considerations with the Tengger community, where only hotels that can be built have a different target market from lodgings or homestays owned by local residents. They implemented this rule so as not to kill the accommodation market for Tengger residents and could trigger large horizontal and vertical conflicts (Novy Setia Yunas et al, 2023). One example is the Plataran Bromo resort which is located in Ngadiwono Village, Tosari District, Pasuruan Regency, which is one of the villages where the Tengger people live.…”

Identification and Modeling of SI-LAUT: Information System for Indonesian Maritime Resources Using Penta-Helix Model

“…This method comprises several crucial stages: criteria identification, data collection, comparative analysis, gap identification, analysis of underlying causes, and the formulation of recommendations [26]. Initially, the researcher delineates specific criteria based on the diverse stakeholders involved, aligning with the Penta-Helix model approach [27]. This preparatory step ensures that the analysis addresses the multifaceted needs of all parties involved.…”
