ANALYSIS OF LICENSING ISSUES IN TOURIST DESTINATION DEVELOPMENT: CASE STUDY OF HIBISC FANTASY PARK

Summary/Abstract: The development of tourism destinations requires a strict and structured permitting process to ensure compliance with spatial planning, environmental protection, and community welfare. This study analyzes the licensing issues encountered in the development of Hibisc Fantasy Park in Puncak, Indonesia. Using a qualitative method with a juridical-empirical approach, the research identifies discrepancies between the obtained permits and actual development practices, such as the expansion of the construction area far beyond the approved limits. The study highlights several key factors contributing to the violation of licensing regulations, including weak government supervision, poor inter-agency coordination, economic pressures on developers, lack of regulatory understanding, and limited government resources. The findings emphasize the urgent need for stronger regulatory enforcement, improved institutional coordination, and greater public awareness to promote sustainable tourism development. Recommendations are provided to enhance the effectiveness of licensing systems and to ensure that tourism growth aligns with legal and environmental standards.
