Abstract

This paper explains that applying the general principles of good governance must be done both before and after making a policy. Normative law is used in this paper. A literature review is used to obtain data. As a result, in order to be called a nation, there must be a government, a territory, and a population. The government must carry out its tasks properly in order for a country’s goals to be realized. The function of government must include all aspects of life, both ideological, political, economic, social, cultural, tourism, defence and security. In terms of regulating all these aspects, of course, it requires a policy, including in this case regarding tourism. Tourism is an activity of travelling from one place to another in a certain period with planning, and the purpose is to have fun or recreation. One of the tourism in Indonesia is Borobudur Temple as one of Indonesia’s historical relics, even becoming one of the world’s wonders. This is so attractive for both domestic and foreign tourists. The policies taken in each tourist attraction are, of course, different. As for the policy of implementing entrance tickets for tourist attractions, it is also an important thing that needs to be discussed comprehensively because it concerns the public interest. The government has not used the general principles of good governance, namely expediency, accuracy, and public interest, in deciding the policy of increasing the tariff for admission into Borobudur Temple and then canceling it, generating anger in the community.
