Abstract

Tourists are pushed to travel to different destinations, either pleasant or macabre destinations, for various motives. Tourist motivation which determines one’s behaviour can be used to understand the tourists’ needs, destination, and choice of activities. This research aimed to investigate local tourists’ characteristics and motivation for visiting Museum Prasasti, which formerly served as a Dutch cemetery. It was conducted due to the limited number of researches on tourists’ visitation to cemetery sites in Indonesia. The research was conducted at Museum Prasasti, Jakarta. The data collection gained from the paper-based questionnaires using the Likert scale. This quantitative method was used to measure tourists’ tendency during their stay at Museum Prasasti. The measurement of motivation was divided into four major motivations: engaging entertainment, dark experience, unique learning experience, and casual interest. By collecting the data from101 responses, this research shows that local tourists at Museum Prasasti are mostly female, under the age of 30, students, and come from lower-middle-class society. The unique learning experience is the most favourable motivation that drives local tourists to visit Museum Prasasti. They visit the museum for educational purposes (to increase their knowledge, understand well-known places regarding their historical heritage, and learn their history). The dark experience motivation least likely motivates them (to see well-known locations for their paranormal activity, experience paranormal activity firsthand, and witness the aftermath of deaths).

Abstract

The sustainability of music festivals is an urgent issue that must be discussed. Without careful consideration of environmental impacts, the short-term economic gain becomes a long-term fiasco. Coachella, the second-largest music festival in the US and the highest-grossing festival in the world, is possible to harm the environment. It provides pressure by bringing a hundred thousands of people at the same time and place. If the festival damages the environment, it will be costly and taking a long time to preserve the ecosystem. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the management of environmental impacts to recognise how a music festival could increase its environmental sustainability. The analysis ascertained qualitatively by using an approach of energy usage, waste generated, and transport emission produced (Fredline et al., 2005).The result shows that much work has been done by Coachella organisers to reduce the environmental impact of the music festival they organised. First, the energy used in Coachella does not have too much impact on the environment because Coachella has applied sustainable energy framework. Next, in term of waste management, Coachella has been trying to minimise waste generated during the event by organising a massive waste sorting program. It can be said that the program has been quite successful at managing waste. Last, emissions produced from transport have the worst impact on the environment because it directly contributes to climate change. Furthermore, the organisers cannot control the number of vehicles used by attendees because this subject is at the preference of each attendee, and the organiser cannot fully control it.

Abstract

Bali is one of the destinations with the highest tourist visiting in Indonesia. One concern is food waste produced by tourists during the holiday. Most of the food waste comes from consumers level. Thus, needed to understand what factors influence of tourist’s intention to reduce food waste during the holiday. This study aims to understand tourist behavioural intention of reducing food waste during the holiday. The conceptual model was built based on the new environmental paradigm scale and environmental psychology approach. There are six hypotheses designed through environmental attitude, feeling personal responsibility, knowledge and intention to reduce food waste during vocation. Correlation and multiple regression were chosen to analyse the data. Environmental attitude did not have a direct association of tourist’s intention to reduce food waste (p-value=.23). Meanwhile, feeling personal responsibility and knowledge to reduce food waste has a significant relationship with the outcome (p-value=.001). In the environmental attitude, both local and foreign tourists are not profoundly correlated with the understanding of tourist’s intention to reduce food waste during the holiday. Overall, the study concludes that tourists can figure out the intention of reducing food waste, even though they do not concern about general environmental attitude.

Abstract

Tourism safety and security is one of the most important aspects of the tourism industry. Bad perception of tourism safety and security could greatly hinder the growth of tourists in a city. Gender, which is a topic highly related to tourism safety and security, has often been debated among researchers hence is a very intriguing issue to examine further. Therefore, research that analyses the safety and security of Yogyakarta city from the perspective of gender is extremely valuable and important. This research uses a quantitative descriptive method with a total of 102 respondents to figure out their perception toward tourism safety and security in Yogyakarta City. The quota sampling method is used to obtain a balanced proportion of male and female respondents in this research. The result shows that foreign tourists perceive Yogyakarta City as “Safe” in tourism safety and security. However, out of four dimensions that are used in this research, one dimension that discusses traffic safety in Yogyakarta has been perceived as “Unsafe” by foreign tourists. From the gender perspective, data shows that male foreign tourists perceived Yogyakarta as a safer tourist destination than female foreign tourists.

The component of organising marketing activities to be evaluated refers to the Marketing Mix model developed by Kotler (2014) knows as 4Ps (product, price, promotion, and place). In this study, researchers used quantitative and qualitative data. Data collection is done by distributing questionnaires to 112 respondents determined through purposive sampling, namely visitors who have purchased MICE packages at Aston Madiun Hotel and Conference Center. Data collection was also obtained from interviews with guests and the Sales and Marketing Department as organisers of hotel marketing activities, observation and literature. In order to formulate the overall evaluation steps, an analysis of the four sectors of hotel marketing activities was carried out in the form of analysis, planning, implementation, and evaluation whose results will be described descriptively. The results showed that the overall marketing mix component received a positive response from guests who had purchased the MICE package at the Aston Madiun Hotel. Two questionnaire items obtain quite low scores, namely hotel items routinely offer and update the details of MICE packages directly to companies and hotels utilising all print media for marketing MICE package activities. The data obtained from the study will be used as study material to evaluate the marketing activities of the Marketing Department in marketing an Aston Madiun Hotel service product, in the form of accuracy of analysis, product development that is in line with the main potential of the hotel, implementation of targeted market segmentation and always evaluating every marketing process that has been passed.
