Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the impact of fluctuations in the Rupiah exchange rate and foreign direct investment (FDI) on the number of foreign tourists visiting Indonesia during the 2005-2023 period. Using a quantitative approach, this research adopts the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) model to analyze secondary data from Bank Indonesia, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), and the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM). The main variables analyzed include fluctuations in the Rupiah exchange rate (IDR/USD), hotel occupancy rates, number of international flights, FDI in the tourism sector, and the number of foreign tourists. The research results reveal that fluctuations in the Rupiah exchange rate do not have a significant influence on FDI or the number of foreign tourists, either directly or indirectly. FDI also does not show a significant influence on the number of tourists. Meanwhile, hotel occupancy rates show a significant influence on the number of foreign tourists, but not on FDI. The number of international flights has a significant influence on the number of foreign tourists, but not on FDI.
