Tourism Development on the Island of Penyengat in Indonesia

Penyengat Island as a leading area for the development of halal tourism in the Kepulauan Riau Province. The development of halal tourism on Penyengat Island requires cooperation and support from many parties, both government and non-government. With great potential in the form of cultural heritage and religious tourism, Penyengat Island tourism has not yet developed to its full potential. The less than optimal role of the relevant stakeholders in tourism development cooperation has made the Pulau Penyengat destination not experience a significant increase. This study aims to identify the stakeholders involved and analyze the roles of the stakeholders involved. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collection techniques combining interviews and FGD, documentation and observation. From this study, it was found that the development of a halal tourism destination on Penyengat Island involved 37 stakeholders who were involved and classified into primary, key and secondary stakeholders. The role of stakeholders involved in the development of halal tourism destinations is reflected in the role of policy creators, coordinators, facilitators, implementers and accelerators. Dinas Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata Kota Tanjung Pinang is the leading sector in the development of halal tourism.
