Abstract

Kuningan District has tremendous tourism potential. If this potential is managed properly, it will provide a significant income for the regional treasury which can then increase the local own-source revenue. This study aims to analyze the implementation of regional policy on the establishment of local public companies which is expected to contribute to the increase of local own-source revenue. The method used in this study was a non-doctrinal research method with a sociologic approach. As results, it was revealed that the establishment of local public companies has not yet contributed optimally in increasing local own-source revenue due to several factors, including; 1) substantial factors – the shifted status of Mount Ciremai from a protected forest to a national park has narrowed the space for tourist attractions in Kuningan District; 2) structural factors – facilities and infrastructures owned by the local public company have not yet been adequate to support the management of tourist attractions in Kuningan District; and 3) cultural factors – the culture of the surrounding community has not yet support a modern and professional tourism management as it is considered contrary to the beliefs and the vision of Kuningan as a Conservation District.
