Abstract

The Indonesian economy is under significant pressure due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic or Covid-19. Likewise, in the Province of Bali, efforts are being made to restore social and economic conditions to stop the spread of Covid-19, minimize casualties, and suppress the increase in transmission rates through implementing the health protocol system. On the one hand, the negative impact is about the singularity in Bali, which is not only about the spread of the coronavirus. On the other hand, it is also about the economic condition of the Balinese people after the pandemic. The economic sector collapsed and brought society to the brink of recession. Talking about tourism in Bali is talking about all areas in Bali. The increasing need for space, without any regulation, will harm the ecosystem. The increase in population will cause an increase in the need for spaces. Hence, changes to existing spaces occur, from nature to agricultural areas, buildings, settlements, and places of business. Therefore, for a safe, comfortable, productive, and sustainable spatial arrangement to be realized in Bali, the Regional Government necessarily needs to formulate and implement policies and technical standardization in spatial planning by statutory regulations. When the Job Creation Act is issued, it will be one of the government’s strategies to deal with variants of overlapping problems and the complexity of legal land in relying on spatial planning. Based on Bank Indonesia Perwakilan Bali data, domestic investment in the Island of the Gods during 2020 reached IDR 5,432.7 billion for 2,513 projects. In the same period, foreign investment (FI) was valued at US $ 293.3 million for 3,967 projects. FI’s portion to the hotel and restaurant sectors reached 52 percent, with a value of US $ 152.516 million or IDR. 2.19 trillion. The portion of domestic investment (DI) in the hotel and restaurant sectors is 45 percent or IDR. 2,444.7 billion. In other words, in terms of value, investment in the hotel and restaurant sector in 2020 is indeed dominated by foreign investment. Almost 80 percent of investment in the Island of the Gods’ tourism sector is carried out by foreign investors. Government authorities that rely on the principle of legality in the field of government (wetsmatigheid van bestuur) aim to provide legal protection for the public from acts of abuse of government authority that may occur. The authority to use land delegated by the central government has not been carried out optimally by local governments due to the availability of norms for the Agrarian Law and its implementing regulations that are out of sync. As a result, regarding the issue of legislation related to the sector, there are many overlapping regulations, one of which is the discussion of the phrasal culture contained in Article 1 Paragraph 1 of Tourism Regulation No. 19. There is no explicit regulation regarding the culture and economic resources of tourism.
