ABSTRACT 

 

Recently, Tourism becomes a great demand by all people including the 

millennial group. It makes stakeholders of tourism industries should 

provide and accommodate the demand of the millennial. The 

millennial people are close to challenges, technologies, digitals, and 

something that has excitement. One of tourism concepts which is 

suitable and highly demand is man-made tourism such as theme park, 

amusement park, etc. This study aims to identify and analyze the 

tourism impact that emerges with the existence of man-made tourism 

activities, because those tourism activities are closely to capitalist 

monopoly and industrialization. The approach of this research was 

quantitative method by distributing questionnaires to the tourists who 

spent their expenditure and local host who received income from the 

tourism activities. This research was conducted at the Pasar Parkiran 

tourism destination in Kota Batu East Java which is managed by Jatim 

Park I. The results of this study explain that the value of Keynesian 

Income Multiplier (KIM) effect is 0.93. The result shows that tourism 

activities give positive impact to local host due to the value close to 

1.00. The research explains that negative image of mass tourism 

activities that is monopolized by the company is not totally true, while 

tourism is managed by the company involving the community as the 

partner will have a positive impact on both sides.  

 

Keywords: Mass Tourism, Man-made Tourism, Tourism Economic 

Impact, Batu City Tourism Development, Pasar Parkiran. 

 

 

INTRODUCTION 
 

Background 

Tourism becomes a primary and 

leading sector in development the 

economy of the country. Since 2016, 

Tourism contributes to improve the 

economy by donating US$ 13.568 billion. 

Furthermore, in 2018, tourism has been 

able to generate a second largest foreign 

exchange income after Crude Palm Oil 

(CPO) (Kemenpar, 2019). Another

indicator of the successful growth of the 

tourism sector is based on data released by 

the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism that 

the increasing number of foreign tourists 

year by year. In 2018, there was a growth 

of 12.61% from 2017 which was 

15,810,305 foreign tourists, although the 

number was not in accordance with the 

figures targeted by the ministry which 

were 17 million foreign tourists in 2018. 

The continuity of Indonesia 

Tourism development has already positive 

impact on the tourism growth in East Java 

Province. This development proved by 

increasing the number of tourists, where 

East Java was visited by 66.314.044 

tourists, consist of 690.509 foreign tourists 

and 65.623.535 domestic tourists in 2017. 

This number has a growth of around 

11.62% compare to the previous years 

2016 which amounted to 618,615 tourists. 

The development of tourism industry in 

East Java, both foreign and domestic 

tourists, within a certain period showed a 

positive increase. It means, East Java as a 

tourism destination in Indonesia is indeed 

quite potential and interesting to be visited 

by tourists. Therefore, this development 

can be used as an indicator that East Java 

tourism can compete with other tourism 

regions in Indonesia. 

Geographically, Batu City is a 

part of Malang Raya Area which is 

consists of Malang City and Malang 

Regency. This small city is well-known as 

tourism destination with branding of 

Shining Batu Many tourists visit Batu City 

comes from various regions in Indonesia 

and countries all over the world. They 

come because Batu City has its own 

distinct characteristics and strengths that 

are always attractive to tourists. This is 

proven by the development of tourism and 

increasing the number of tourist visits to 

Batu from year to year besides being a 

strength in preserving the distinctiveness 

and diversity of tourist attractions that are 

different from other regions (product 

diversification) (Rahman, 2012) 

The growth of tourist attraction in 

Batu City is currently classified as very 

massive, especially in the development of 

man-made tourist attractions. Based on 

data obtained from the Batu City Tourism 

Board, there are at least 49% of the tourist 

attractions in Batu City are man-made 

tourism attraction and the remaining 13% 

and 38% are cultural tourist attractions and 

natural tourist attractions. The man-made 

tourist attraction in Batu City is dominated 

by PT. Bunga Wangsa Sedjati which has 

Jatim Park Group tourism destination. The 

tourism destination has several tourist 

attractions including Jatim Park I, Jatim 

Park II, Jatim Park III, Batu Night 

Spectacular (BNS), Eco Green Park, 

Museum Angkut, Predator Fun Park and 

many more tourist attractions spread out in

East Java Province. (Disparta Kota Batu, 

2019) 

The impact of the growth is 

expected to be able to contribute to the 

improvement of the local economy, 

especially people who are around the 

location of tourism activities. In some 

places, investors are present to develop the 

tourism industry with a capitalist model 

and the public is not given access to be 

involved in it. This has an impact on 

people becoming increasingly poor, 

unemployed, and social inequality is 

higher (Karim, 2005). How much impact 

is received by the community around the 

tourist attraction of the Pasar Parkiran 

Jatim Park I with the existence of tourism 

activities and how the implementation on 

the field by local people is discussed in 

this article. 

 

Research Objectives 

The purpose of this study is to 

identify the impact received by the local 

community around the development of the 

tourism destination of the Pasar Parkiran 

Jatim Park I based on the approach of the 

tourist’s expenditure and the local people 

income who are active in supporting 

tourism activities in the Pasar Parkiran 

Jatim Park I. 

 

 

 

LITERATURE REVIEW 

 

Tourism Industry 

Tourism has commonly believed 

that it has contributed positively to 

economic growth as exports have strongly 

triggered economic expansion. The rapid 

development of tourism industry afford to 

drive the growth of local income and 

government revenue directly and indirectly 

(Oh, 2005). In last few years, this industry 

began to be focused by both regional and 

central governments. According to 

Okumus (2005) explains that the tourism 

industry is able to become one of the main 

sectors driving the local economic. This is 

able to help the Northern Cyprus economy 

by contributing to reduce the 

unemployment number by creating a total 

of 6,000 jobs. In addition, tourism 

contributed to a GDP of $ 93 million (3%). 

Although in further explained, that tourism 

is an industry that is susceptible to 

economic crisis in the country. The 

Indonesia economic crisis in 1998 affected 

the decrease of foreign tourists arrivals 

from 1997 in 12%.  

According to Sunaryo (2013), 

historically there are two tourism 

development models that underlie current 

tourism development and management 

models. Growth oriented model which 

gives priority to mass tourism is an early 

development model and familiar in the 



E-Journal of Tourism Vol.7. No.1. (2020): 37-54 

 

http://ojs.unud.ac.id/index.php/eot  40  e-ISSN: 2407-392X.  p-ISSN: 2541-0857  

1980s. This model focuses on the high and 

massive level of the tourists number. After 

it was realized that the paradigm of the 

model did not have a significant impact on 

society, a new concept or paradigm 

emerged as one of the options and 

balances of mass tourism, namely the 

concept of sustainable tourism 

development which began to be 

implemented since the 1990s.  

In the tourism industry, there are 

three main stakeholders involved in 

managing and providing tourism activities. 

The stakeholders are the government, 

private companies, and local communities 

located around the tourist destination 

(sutama, 2013). The private sector is the 

main stakeholder in the management of 

mass tourism. Jatimpark, Batu Night 

Spectacular, and museum angkut are mass 

tourism destinations managed by the 

private sector, where the number of 

tourists and tourist expenditure is the 

parameter of the success goals 

management. Tourism destinations that are 

provided and managed by private 

companies are called Investor Based 

Management. 

The concept of Investor Based 

Management has the opportunity for 

closed the access of local host to get the 

impact of tourism activities. This is caused 

by the divisions determined by the 

company in terms of receiving tourist 

expenditure. Opportunities for sharing the 

impact of tourism activities should be felt 

by the community around the local tourist 

attraction. Providing access to the 

community is not only intended to have an 

economic impact on the local community, 

it is also expected to avoid tourism 

conflicts that occur between the company 

and local communities. 

 

Economic Impact 

Cohen (1984) explained that there 

are eight categories regarding the impact 

of tourism on the local community socio-

economic, namely: the impact on foreign 

exchange earnings; impact on community 

income; impact on employment 

opportunities; impact on prices; impact on 

benefit distribution; impact on ownership 

and control; impacts on development in 

general; impact on government revenue. In 

line with Cohen, Frechtling (1987) 

explains that the economic impact of the 

tourism development model is a 

contribution of a tourism development 

model in a tourist destination to the 

economy of a region. These impacts can 

be in the form of: 1) revenue from sales of 

tourism products (entrance tickets, 

accommodation, restaurants, game / 

attraction rides, transportation, and retail);              

2) community income (souvenir / souvenir 

sales and services); 3) employment 

opportunities; and 4) government revenue

from taxes and user charges. Tourism 

becomes an important factor is caused can 

be a driving factor for the development of 

several economic sectors. With the 

increase of the tourism was followed by 

related industries that are close including 

handicrafts, souvenir goods and the 

agricultural sector where tourists need 

food for consumption.  

According to MEA (2001) there 

are three groups of economic impacts, 

namely direct effects, indirect effects, and 

induced effects. In practice, indirect 

effects and induction effects are 

sometimes referred to as secondary effects 

which follow the direct effect as a primary 

effect (Primary Effect), it call multiplier 

effect.  

The multiplier effect has several 

principles as explained by Yoeti (2008): 

the tourist expenditure never stops 

circulating in economic activities where 

the money is spent and rotate in that area. 

In the principle, the faster the rotation of 

the money moves into the others, the 

greater the influence of the money in the 

economy at the location and the greater the 

value of the multiplier coefficient. When 

the money disappears from circulation 

stops at one individual and has not moved 

into the others, the money has no effect on 

the local economy. 

 

 

Local Community 

Local Community is a group of 

individuals to form the personalities of the 

citizens of human groups or tribes who are 

different from one another. In a local 

community that is also the relevant 

citizens to develop and preserve cultures 

that are in certain strata of society which 

must have different characteristics. It can 

also be regarded as one of the media or 

educational institutions, a diverse field of 

human life both ethnicity, religion, work 

activities, education level, economic level, 

and social culture. In the context of 

community organization is a life together 

which is at the micro level of the 

government. In this sense is an institution 

or an embodiment of the subject of 

managers who receive the trust of 

community its self. 

Betrand in Syani (1995) explains 

that community is a group of people with 

the same identification, organized in such 

a way as to carry out everything needed 

for a harmonious shared life. In another 

sense the community is a group of 

individuals who reside in a certain area 

and can interact with other individuals 

over a long period of time. Based on the 

explanation described, it can be concluded 

that the community is a group of people 

who live in a certain place for quite a long 

period of time and interact with each other 

with the aim of creating harmony in life.

One form of community is a group of 

people who are limited by certain aspects, 

such as territories, nations, and groups. 

According to Soekarto in Syani (1995) the 

characteristics of a community in a form 

of shared life include the following: a) 

Humans who live together. In social 

science there are no absolute 

measurements or exact numbers to 

determine how many people there must be 

and are just called society. But 

theoretically, the minimum number is 

more than one or at least two people living 

together; b) Mixed for quite a long time. A 

collection of humans is not the same as a 

collection of inanimate objects such as 

chairs, tables, and so on. The basic 

difference here is the interaction with one 

another. The interaction can talk, feel and 

understand, they also have the desire to 

convey their impressions or feelings; c) 

They realize that they are part of a group 

or a unit; and d) They are a system of 

living together. The system of living 

together gives rise to culture, because each 

group member feels himself bound to one 

another. 

In this study, the meaning of local 

community is a community that has lived 

in Kota Batu for a long time, especially the 

surrounding Pasar Parkiran Jatim Park I. 

The community as an object of research 

becomes very important in the 

classification and determination of 

research criteria. As one of the efforts to 

impose restrictions on local communities 

in this location, it is determined that local 

communities refer to Badan Pusat Statistik 

(BPS) that is, all people who have lived in 

geographical areas for 6 months or more 

and or who have been domiciled for less 

than 6 months but aim to settled and 

supported by identity card (KTP) which 

prove that they live in the area around 

tourism. 

 

METHODOLOGY 

 

This research uses a quantitative 

method approach by collecting and 

processing data. The data in this study 

were collected with the original conditions 

with the instrument in this study was using 

a questionnaire. It is a technique or way of 

collecting data indirectly (Arikunto, 2006). 

There are three kinds of respondents in 

this article, namely: tourists by identifying 

their expenditures, business owners who 

make business in the Pasar Parkiran Jatim 

Park I, and labours who work in tourism 

destination. Where the second and third 

respondents are identified based on their 

income and expenditure related to their 

business and daily expenses. 

The probability sampling method 

is used in this article with implementated a 

random sampling techniques without 

ignoring certain criteria to fit the research

objectives, so that it can answer the 

research problem. Sample criteria in the 

form of tourists with a minimum age is 17 

years old with the reason that tourists who 

have that age have been able to determine 

the decision to spend the money that they 

have. The sample size is determined by 

using the Slovin formula with the margin 

of error 10 percent. 

Pasar Parkiran Jatim Park I in 

Batu City is the research location, because 

it (Jatim Park I) is a pioneer and the most 

famous man-made tourist attraction in 

Batu City with the highest number of 

tourists 413,497 tourists in 2016 (BPS, 

2017). This research was conducted in 

April 2018. Primary data used by giving 

questionnaires to tourists who come and 

expend their money in tourism destination, 

the owner of SMEs at the Pasar Parkiran 

Jatim Park I to collect information of their 

income and expenses. Secondary data was 

used to support in compiling this research 

related to actual and factual condition of 

tourism in Batu City. 

Number of samples in this study 

were 110 respondents with the detail 50 

respondents of tourists, 30 respondents of 

SMEs owner, 30 respondents of labour in 

the destination. Determination of the 

samples refers to Sekaran (2006) where 

generally, to obtain good results in the 

research, the number of samples used are 

in the range of 30-500 respondents. In this 

study, the Keynesian Multiplier Effect 

analysis technique is used to measure the 

direct impacts, indirect impacts and 

induced impacts that occur in activities at 

Pasar Parkiran Jatim Park I. These 

economic impacts can be measured using 

the multiplier effect by the flow of money 

that occurs. In measuring impacts, there 

are two types of multiplier, namely: a). 

Keynesian Local Income Multiplier is a 

value that measures how much tourist 

expenditures have an impact on increasing 

local community’s income; and the others 

b) Ratio Income Multiplier, which is a 

value that measures how much the direct 

impact felt by tourist expenditures have 

implications for the overall local economy 

income. This multiplier measures the 

indirect and induced impacts. The formula 

that can be used in measuring the 

multiplier effect is as follows: 

 

Keynesian Income Multiplier =    (1) 

Ratio Income Multiplier, Type I =     (2) 

Ratio Income Multiplier, Type II =   (3) 

 

Where: 

E: tourist expenditure (Rupiah) 

D: community income obtained directly from 

E. 

N: community income obtained indirectly 

from E 

U: community income obtained induced from 

E

according to the type of business being 

run. Data on the percentage of business 

unit owner's income can be seen in Table 

1.2.

Based on Table 1.3 the amount of 

direct economic impact received by the 

toilets have the smallest amount of Rp 

4,500,000, - with an average per month for 

it receiving Rp 1,500,000. The total direct 

impact received by all outlets in the Pasar 

Parkiran is an average of Rp. 204,460,000 

per month, with an average of each outlet 

being Rp. 1,540,000. 

The direct economic impact felt 

by the outlet owner is the net income 

received when carrying out its business 

activities in the Pasar Parkiran Jatim Park 

I. Meals Outlet has the largest amount of 

income, which is an average of Rp 

130,000,000, - per month. This is

influenced by in addition to the average 

amount per month for each meal outlets, in 

terms of the number of types of meals 

outlet, there are also a lot of 52 units. So 

that the amount received in each month by 

this business unit has the highest amount. 

Toilet has a small number of units. There 

are 3 location of toilet in the Pasar 

Parkiran considering the area of the 

destination is not too large and is part of 

Jatim Park I, so there are only 3 toilet 

units. In this case, the Pasar Parkiran is 

also able to open up opportunities for local 

workers to work in these locations. There 

are 163 workers who work in the Pasar 

Parkiran Tourism Destinations which are 

divided into several sectors or job 

positions. Before the formation of the 

Pasar Parkiran, the community carried 

out the business of selling food and drinks 

on the roadside as street vendors. With the 

Pasar Parkiran become a tourist 

destination, the community has location to 

do business without fear to the authorities 

in this case the local governance because 

of illegal business.  

 

Indirect Effect 

Expenditures made by outlets in 

the surrounding of the location such as the 

purchase of raw materials, maintenance of 

equipment, payroll are included in the 

indirect economic impacts that occur at the 

tourism destination. The calculations 

regarding the expenditure of business units 

inside and outside the location can be seen 

based on Table 1.4.

Based on Table 1.4 the costs by 

outlets within the location will indirectly 

have an impact on the local people who 

work at there. These expenditures include 

the purchase of raw material inputs, 

equipment maintenance, and rental costs. 

In this case, the expenditures made by the

meals outlet and souvenir outlets do not 

differ too much, namely the average per 

unit of business is Rp 1,735,167 and Rp 

1,739,636, -. But if seen from the total 

expenditure spent by each group of 

business units, the meals outlets group had 

the largest total expenditure of Rp. 

90,228,667 per month. It dominates 

expenditure at the tourist location due to 

several factors that influence. These 

factors include the number of the outlets in 

the tourist location which has the highest 

number compared to other business units 

in the form of souvenir, as well as business 

units providing toilet facilities in tourist 

location. In addition, to the large number 

of units, the purchase of raw materials for 

meals outlets has a greater amount 

compared to the provision of toilets in 

which the purchase or expenditure of raw 

materials is relatively low. Furthermore, 

the indirect economic impacts felt by 

labours in the form of income obtained can 

be seen in Table 1.5. Based on Table 1.5 

there is a difference in the proportion of 

salary based on the type of work but the 

average income is taken. The greatest 

indirect economic impact is felt by the 

meals outlets which is Rp. 190,588,667, - 

because the number of labours in the 

business unit has the highest number.

In addition to payment of labour’s 

salary, the direct impact is also calculated 

from the expenditure of outlets located in 

tourist destination as shown in Table 1.4. 

Based on the two components, labour’s 

salary and outlets expenditures in tourist 

sites, a total indirect economic impact 



E-Journal of Tourism Vol.7. No.1. (2020): 37-54 

 

http://ojs.unud.ac.id/index.php/eot  49  e-ISSN: 2407-392X.  p-ISSN: 2541-0857  

which occurs in these tourist destinations. 

In this case the indirect economic impact 

that occurred on the Pasar Parkiran is Rp 

489,706,667 per month. 

 

Induce Effect 

This location also has a induce 

economic impact that occurs due to 

expenditure made by labour in the area of 

tourism. The expenditure causes a velocity 

of money received by them and spent to 

finance his daily life. The research makes 

an interview and contributes a questionaire 

to the labour with the detail below.  

 

Labour Personality 

The proportion of labour 

respondents is not much different between 

male and female, the difference is only 

6.66%, with the details men (53.33%) and 

women (46.67%). The range of age in the 

location dominated by 21-30 years at 

56.67%. A proportion of 20% is found in 

labours with age less than 20 years and 

more than 40 years are equal. There are 

3.33% of labour respondents with ages 31-

40 years. This proportion is the smallest 

proportion in the age of the labours. 

 

Education and Geographic Background 

The education level of the 

location in the Pasar Parkiran is 

dominated by senior high school level with 

a proportion of 70% and followed by a 

bachelor degree level of 20%. The level of 

junior high school is the smallest 

proportion of 3.33% and the elementary 

school level of 6.67%. With a proportion 

of the labour is 80% dominated by local 

and native community of the area while 

the remaining 20% are from outside the 

location of tourism destinations. The 

average length of work labours in the 

Pasar Parkiran are approximately 38 

months or 3 years. 

Expenditures that cause further 

economic impacts such as daily 

consumption costs, daily necessities, local 

transportation costs, and the cost of school 

children when they are married. 

Conversely, expenditures made outside 

tourist sites do not have an induced 

economic impact because the money goes 

out of the location area. Expenditures 

outside the location are divided into two, 

namely the cost of electricity payments 

and other costs. The proportion of labour 

expenditure can be seen in Table 1.6.

In addition to consumption costs, 

there are still daily expenses, local 

transportation costs, as well as children's 

school fees incurred by workers who work 

in the Pasar Parkiran. The total 

expenditure done by workers around the 

tourist destination is 81.50 percent, 

meaning that the total labour income in the 

Pasar Parkiran is almost entirely spent 

inside the location or around the tourist 

destination, while the expenditure done 

outside the location is 18.50 percent. 

The induced impact of the 

existence of the Pasar Parkiran tourist 

location can be seen from the amount of 

labour expenditure carried out in the 

tourist location. Data on the continuing 

impacts can be seen in Table 1.7.

Based on Table 1.7 it can be seen 

that the total average expenditure of 

respondents in the Pasar Parkiran is Rp. 

17,159,000, - of this amount if the average 

proportion of labour expenditure carried 

out in tourist sites is 81.50 percent then it 

can be seen that the induced economic 

impact occurring in the Pasar Parkiran is 

IDR 237,465,000. The induced impact of 

81.50 percent carried out by labour in the 

Pasar Parkiran is expenditure at tourist 

destinations which includes expenditures 

for consumption costs both for personal 

and family needs, daily necessities such as 

bathing, cigarettes, local transportation 

costs for purchases gasoline as 

transportation fuel to the workplace and 

the cost of school children for workers 

who are married and have children who 

have gone to school. 

Based on Table 1.7 it can be seen 

that the game staff has the smallest 

proportion of expenditure which is 48.15 

percent compared to the proportion of 

other labour’s expenditures. This is due to 

the fact that most of the labour who work 

as game staff are young and unmarried 

staff. 

 

Multiplier Effects 

The value of the multiplier effect 

is an instrument to see how much tourism 

activities in the location has an economic 

impact on the community, especially in 

terms of income. (1) Keynesian Multiplier 

Effect, which is a value that shows how 

much tourists expenditure affects the 

increase in local community income; (2) 

Ratio Income Multiplier, which is a value 

that shows how much the direct impact 

that is felt from tourist’s expenditure has 

an impact on the local economy. In this 

case, it measures two impacts, those are 

indirect impacts and induced impacts that 

occur.

Regarding on Table 1.8 about the 

Keynesian Income Multiplier value in the 

Pasar Parkiran of 0.93, it means that each 

increase in tourist expenditure by Rp 1,000 

will have an impact in the form of an 

increase in the local economy of Rp 930. 

The value of the Ratio Income Multiplier 

Type I is 3.40, so each increase of Rp. 

1,000 on the receipt of business units 

results in an increase of Rp. 3,400 to the 

income of the business owner and labor. 

The value of the Income Multiplier type II 

ratio is 4.56, indicating that each increase 

of Rp 1,000, - on business unit revenue 

will increase Rp 4,560, - on business

owner income, labor income, and labor 

consumption expenditure in the local 

economy that will revolve to the local 

community. The Keynesian Income 

Multiplier value in the Pasar Parkiran has 

approached number 1 which is 0.93, the 

value of the Ratio Income Multiplier Type 

I and the Ratio Income Multiplier Type II 

of 3.40 and 4.56. It means that Pasar 

Parkiran Jatim Park I, based on the results 

of multiplier effect analysis, has been able 

to have a good impact on the local 

community. It can be seen from the 

numbers that have approached 1.00 figures 

on the multiplier effect that occurs. The 

fundamental thing that has made tourism 

activities have an impact on society is the 

open space for community to do business 

at the destination. The community is given 

the chance to create a business outlet for 

food stalls, drinks, souvenirs and gift 

stalls. Apart from being given the space to 

set up business units at tourist sites, the 

absence of competition between the 

community and the management is the 

reason why the community can feel the 

impact of tourism more. The management 

of Jatim Park I, which is engaged in 

providing tourist destinations in the form 

of games and various tourists attract, while 

the local community does the business of 

setting up typical culinary stalls of Batu 

City.  

Apart from good management 

according to professional company 

standards, supporting factors in the form 

of tourism facilities also play a role in both 

of these tourism industries. Based on the 

review of the location, Pasar Parkiran is a 

tourist destination in the center of the city 

with adequate facilities. Supporting 

facilities and infrastructure in the form of 

central city accommodation facilities are 

easy to access. In addition to 

accommodation facilities, the distance 

between location and public transport 

facilities is also easier to reach.  

Furthermore, viewed from the 

Minister of Tourism RI Regulation No. 28 

of 2015 on Business Standard of Food 

Sales Center, there are 3 main aspects in 

the standardization namely Products, 

Services, and Management. As one of the 

leading tourism destinations in Batu City, 

Pasar Parkiran has paid attention to the 

government standards. All facilities and 

infrastructure for supporting local host 

businesses have been provided by the 

tourism destination, in this case Jatim Park 

I, so that it is appropriate and can be used 

by tourists who enjoy the culinary. 

Services are important in tourism activities 

in the Pasar Parkiran, so that human 

resources in the Pasar Parkiran more 

often get training on the professionalism of 

working the tourism business.

Regulation No. 78 of 2015 on Salary and 

reinforced by East Java Governor 

Regulation no. 75 of 2017 on Regional 

Minimum Salary in East Java at 2018, 

where private companies that have 

employees are required to provide decent 

work salary in accordance with those 

government standards. The minimum 

salary set by the East Java provincial 

government for Batu City in 2018 is Rp 

2,383,167.00, so that in this case the salary 

of labour in the Pasar Parkiran have 

approached the figure specified in article 3 

paragraph 2 of the Governor’s Regulation. 

Based on Article 3 paragraph 1 of PP No. 

78 of 2015 concerning Wage Policy is 

expected to be one of the efforts to 

improve decent livelihoods for workers / 

laborers, one of which is the fulfillment of 

income in accordance with existing 

provisions. By providing workers’ wages 

in accordance with established standards, 

it can increase the income of the 

community, especially those working in 

the Pasar Parkiran tourism destination, so 

that it contributes to increasing the existing 

indirect economic impacts. 

 

CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGETIONS 

 

Man-made tourism activities, 

namely Pasar Parkiran Jatim Park I, have 

given an impact on local communities, 

especially those get involved in the 

location. These impacts have been studied 

based on Keynesian Income Multiplier 

Effect with focus in the direct impacts 

received from tourist expenditures, the 

indirect impacts originating from business 

owner expenditures, as well as the induced 

impacts coming from local labour’s salary 

in the tourism destination. Besides the 

economic impact, man-made tourism 

activities have been able to create and 

provide a job, especially for local 

communities who live around tourism 

destinations. Suggestions can be given to 

tourism destinations are to pay more 

attention to the local community by 

involving business activities so that the 

impact received by the community can be 

wider.
