Korean boost for Lombok tourism

Lombok’s tourism industry will get a significant boost this summer, when Korean Air launches direct flights to the Indonesian resort island. The Antara news agency reported the general manager of Lombok International Airport, I Gusti Ngurah Ardita, as confirming that the South Korean national carrier will operate a series of charter services from Seoul in July and August 2017. "Korean Air will open a charter flight for seven times," he was quoted saying. "This charter flight is, of course, expected to open a fixed route for Korea-Lombok flights." Ardita added that the launch of Korean Air's flights followed a meeting between the airport and the national carrier in April 2017, and that the flights are being supported by the regional government and tourism board of Indonesia's West Nusa Tenggara province. South Korea is one of Asia's fastest-growing outbound tourism markets, and the additional flights will support the Indonesian government's efforts of attracting 20 million international visitors per year by 2019.

World Bank shows how integrated tourism is boosting communities in Indonesia

The Indonesia Tourism Development Project (ITDP), a joint initiative between the Indonesian government and the World Bank, is enabling communities in Lombok and Lake Toba to improve their livelihoods. The joint initiative centres on sustainable tourism development that benefits both people and the environment, making the most out of Indonesia’s exceptional natural landscapes and rich cultural heritage. In areas like Lombok and Lake Toba, ITDP’s initiatives are improving infrastructure, expanding access to resources, and empowering local entrepreneurs.  Through training and capacity-building, communities are ensuring that tourism growth benefits both people and the environment while preserving cultural and natural heritage. Dealing with key issues As Lake Toba and Lombok offer unique landscapes and cultural traditions, these are ideal for development as prime tourist destinations. However, both areas are dealing with issues that include poor infrastructure, environmental degradation, and the need for sustainable tourism to benefit local communities without harming natural resources. Under the ITDP, the Indonesian government developed the Integrated Tourism Master Plan (ITMP) to serve as a blueprint for sustainable tourism development.  While Lombok’s ITMP was completed and enacted earlier, ITMPs for other destinations were finalised during the project.  Their implementation continues as part of broader efforts to strengthen sustainable tourism development. How ITMPs help The ITMPs create a balanced approach to tourism  that respects the environment and local culture while empowering communities to lead their own development.  By incorporating infrastructure development with environmental conservation and cultural preservation, the ITMPs guide key tourism projects in regions like Gili-Senggigi, South Beach, Mataram, and Rinjani. This integrated approach ensures that tourism growth aligns with long-term sustainability goals for local communities and the environment. Key improvements include road upgrades, such as the Pemenang-Bayan-Sembalun road and water supply systems in Senaru, Sembalun, and Mandalika.  These improvements enhance infrastructure and help preserve the natural resources that draw visitors to the region.  As of end-2024, ITDP projections showed that these improvements stand to benefit 1.6 million people in Lombok alone, enhancing the sustainable development efforts across the island.
