Bali Space for Tourism Activities

TOURISM IN THE ISLAND

Certainly, it is no secret that Bali is one of the 'paradise' for tourism in the world. This island has been repeatedly recognized by the international community as the best tourist destination in the world, even one of the best city in Asia according to Conde Nast Traveler Award of Ubud which is located in the middle of the island of Bali. This should be the pride of us all as Indonesia and become hyper other areas to form the 'image' based on each region's potential.

Therefore, Bali is one tourist destination so I tried to write about space tourism on the island of Bali. I mean just simply sharing information for those who want to travel to Bali or for those who live in Bali but want to travel to tourist places in Bali. It also illustrates just how the tourism sector in Bali is very influential in the use of space.

As stated in Regulation No. 16 of 2009 on Bali RTRWP space for the development of tourism in Bali is divided into 3 (three) spaces are Tourism Regions - in Indonesian called Kawasan Pariwisata (KP), Area of Special Tourist Attraction - in Indonesian called Kawasan Daya Tarik Wisata Khusus (KDTWK), and Attractions - in Indonesian called Daya Tarik Wisata (DTW). Also determined that in Bali there are 16 (sixteen) tourist area, 5 KDWTK and approximately 156 DTW so you can imagine how this island is a 'paradise' for tourism activities.

To illustrate this policy, I try to describe the existing tourism activities and its relationship with tourism spaces described earlier.

In Bali, the main tourist center are Kuta and Tuban with the presence of Ngurah Rai international airport, so any tourists (especially those using air transportation) will be directly set foot on Tourism Regions Kuta and Tuban.

After the Tourism Service Center Kuta / Tuban then the tourists will spread and visit 14 other tourism region which I think is the Sub Service Center of Tourism. As for the Area of Special Tourist Attraction (KDTWK) itself seems to be the region that have limited tourism development for many reasons, especially the preservation of the environment.
For Tourist Attractions tourist resorts are scattered throughout Bali and functioning as a travel / recreation to support a limited tourist facilities so that they provide tourism services are also limited / incomplete.

Tourism Regions (KP)
Almost all tourism region is a region with the main attraction is the sea and only one area that has a natural attraction of rural and social culture is Ubud. On the whole tourist area is available supporting facilities of tourism, so if you do not use the service / travel agent then you will still be able to obtain sufficient information on the centers of this tourism regions.

Thus my description briefly about policy and provision of space systems in supporting the development of tourism sector in Bali. We strongly hope that the established policy can be implemented properly so that the level of social welfare in Bali is also increasing.

Open Space in Denpasar City

'HEAT ISLAND EFFECT' DEPRECIATION DUE TO OPEN SPACE IN THE CITY OF DENPASAR

"Heat Island Effect" is a phenomenon that frequently occur in urban areas as a result of the development density buildings in the city. Where this effect causes the air in downtown will be more felt hotter than the suburbs or to say that the temperature in the city center was the most high and will decrease gradually toward the edge of town. The temperature difference between the downtown area and suburbs will grow rapidly after sunset. Based on research conducted by some experts, the air temperature around the central city than the suburbs will have a temperature difference of 3-5°C. It can also be felt in Denpasar, especially in the dry season ago.

For those who live near the center of town that is on Jl. Diponegoro, Teuku Umar and surrounding it at night sometimes the air was warmer than during the day. This is because the heat in the evening return run into difficulty because the closed-ground by concrete, asphalt and others. Another case to the district on the outskirts of town that is about Peguyangan and surrounding areas where there is little difference between the heat during the day and night.

For those who live near the center of town that is on Jl. Diponegoro, Teuku Umar and surrounding it at night sometimes the air was warmer than during the day. This is because the heat absorbed during the day and will be returned in the evening experiencing difficulty because of the closed ground by concrete, asphalt and others. Another case to the district on the outskirts of town that is about Peguyangan and surrounding areas where there is little difference between the heat during the day and night.

Conditions like these show that in Denpasar also began to decline in area of urban open space. Although in some parts of the city there is ample open space such as open space in Monument Jagadnata Renon and Catur Muka but in some parts of the city open space are very narrow so that a balance between built space and open space around this area also decreases.

To overcome the problems of diminishing open space in the city of Denpasar, it is necessary to structuring a more insightful cultural city. Denpasar is a city that slogan City of Culture Concept so that it would need to provide open spaces, especially as a place for community interaction and the environment..

To overcome the problems of diminishing open space in Denpasar, the necessary restructuring measures face a vision of the city into a city of culture. Denpasar is a city that slogan City of Culture Concept so that it would need to provide open spaces, especially as a place for community interaction and the environment.

Open space is not just a green open space in the form of playground and sports field but also the empty spaces that function as absorbing rainwater and so forth. It also required the actions mainly in the form of spatial interventions include: revitalization of the city through: rejuvenation of urban open spaces in the form of restructuring, improving the function of urban open space and so forth, especially for the region woke up around the banks of the river, urban renewall especially around the area of the crowded city, old town area and others.

With the implementation of the actions mentioned above it is expected that "heat island effect" that has occurred in the city of Denpasar can be reduced and minimized, so that within one or two following decades as the city of Denpasar oriented culture is not merely a slogan but will be retained and enhanced.

Bali Space for Fishing Cluster Industry

PENGAMBENGAN INDUSTRIAL AREA, JEMBRANA, BALI

Wealth of marine areas of Bali is not to be denied again. The potential of marine habitat has resulted in marine tourism activities and has grown rapidly worldwide. Behind the lively tourist activities, marine areas in the province is also rich in fishery potential.

Noted that almost all the districts which have a sea area in Bali has a fish landing centers, among others: Kedongan-Jimbaran (Badung regency), Amed kidnapped (Karangasem regency), Sangsit and Pegametan (Buleleng regency), Kusamba (Klungkung regency), and Pengambengan (Jembrana regency).

In order to accommodate the activities of fishing, the Provincial Government of Bali has set Pengambengan as the region's for fishing industry. Pengambengan Industrial Area is located on the western island of Bali, exactly in Jembrana regency. As an industrial area it is not surprising that in this area has grown lot of fishing industrial activities.

What's interesting is the region's fishermen gathered not only from Bali but also from around the region include: Banyuwangi, Madura and Sulawesi. This is because the location of Industrial Area Pengambengan is quite strategic. It is located in the western region of Bali, so relatively close to the main market of Java Island and is located at node fishing activity from the surrounding areas (among others: Muncar - Banyuwangi, and Madura).

Environmental conditions in the industrial area is quite good but the air quality is still lacking, which when entering this area already smelled a strong scent. Despite the stinging air condition is a characteristic fishing area but see the image of Bali as one of the world tourism destinations then this condition would require attention.

However, behind the environmental conditions that are less, the existence of this industrial area to be one point of growth that has driven the development of fisheries activities in the region. Where has stood approximately 18 factory consisting of several fish cannery and fish meal processing factory.

Apart from environmental issues, development of fishery activities in Pengambengan Industrial Area is one example of successful utilization of space to accommodate the needs of small communities which in this case is the fishermen. We hope through these descriptions to encourage the use of space in other areas that also accommodate the needs of small communities.
