PERAN KEBIJAKAN FISKAL DAN MONETER DAERAH DALAM MENDUKUNG PENGEMBANGAN EKOWISATA MANGROVE SEBAGAI BAGIAN DARI EKONOMI BERKELANJUTAN

Abstract

This study aims to determine the role of regional fiscal and monetary policies in supporting the development of Mangrove Ecotourism as part of a sustainable economy. The type of research used in this research is a qualitative approach with a library research method. This data collection technique uses the “literature study” technique or literature review research by attempting to review or observe data derived from journals, websites and other information media. Data analysis used content analysis techniques, which involved re-reading the literature to identify the main themes and categories that emerged from the literature. The result of this study is that government support is provided in the form of utilizing fiscal and monetary policies in order to support conservation efforts. Fiscal policy has an important role to play in maintaining mangrove biodiversity. Meanwhile, monetary policy is used to control the macroeconomic situation so that it can run as desired through regulating the amount of money circulating in the economy. These efforts are carried out in order to stabilize prices and inflation. To encourage local communities to support conservation efforts, fiscal incentives can be provided. Such as tax incentives for ecotourism income, reduction of local tax rates (hotel or restaurant) for ecotourism businesses, subsidies for the construction of homestays based on environmentally friendly materials. Meanwhile, in the long term, an incentive scheme can be launched in the form of a tax reduction on income obtained from reforestation.
