Abstract

Symbolically, the founding fathers have designed the concept of promoting Indonesian tourism by capitalizing on pluralism. The concept of promoting the diversity of the Indonesian nation puts forward the Five Principles, namely divinity, humanity unity, democracy, and justice. In 2009, Indonesian tourism ranked third in foreign exchange earnings after oil and gas commodities and palm oil. Based on 2014 data, the number of foreign tourists who came to Indonesia was 9.4 million more or grew by 7.05% compared to the previous year. Now that the Covid-19 pandemic has hit Indonesia, the tourism sector is experiencing a decline. The question is, what and how to improve Indonesia’s economic welfare by promoting cultural tourism during the Covid-19 pandemic. To answer, the researcher proposes the concept of Tourism Together with Pancasila. Divinity in tourism can be done by providing worship facilities in tourist destinations such as religious tourism, humanity, management, and development in a civilized and environmentally friendly manner. Unity, Indonesian tourism is managed and developed by prioritizing a common understanding that cultural diversity is the nation’s greatness: democracy, management, and community tourism development from Sabang to Meraoke. Justice, management, and development of Indonesian tourism must be felt by all levels of Indonesian society for prosperity. This research uses the normative method while focusing on how the tourism ministry should promote Indonesia and attract tourists with the Pancasila-based principle.

In conclusion, it is imperative to emulate and continue the spirit of Garuda Pancasila to develop the Indonesian nation’s tourism while still basing it on divinity, humanity, unity, democracy, and justice. Tourism in implementing its policies cannot be separated from the government’s goodwill, which will encourage the creation of effective policies. The concept of Tourism with Pancasila will revive Indonesia from the decline in welfare due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
