Gedung Sate Notes 05 Kertajati in the Center for Advanced Business Center od has predestined West Java with beautiful and fertile landscape, creating plenty of opportunities to work on the welfare of its people. But this immense potential will stay unrealized if it is not managed and utilized properly. The Kertajati Airport, located in Kertajati District, Majalengka Regency, represents a gateway to West Java for the outside world. Bringing the world to West Java to explore its hidden beauty, learn about its vast wisdom and utilize the fertility of the land of Pasundan for the wellbeing and prosperity of its people. Kertajati Airport is located in an area of ​3​ ,400 hectares. it is our hope that the area will become a new business center in the West Java region. Alhamdulillah. In July, history will be made. The airport, which has been operating since May 2018, will serve Hajj flights for people in the Ciayumajakuning area. In fact, the Indonesian Ministry of Religion has designated this airport as an inseparable part of the Haji Kertajati embarkation. In addition, the airport will be integrated with Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in the Cirebon region, Majalengka and Subang called the ‘Tambourine Triangle’. The area is envisioned to become the most advanced industrial center in Indonesia. There will be 10 development centers across the area, including commercial industrial centers, education centers, residential centers, medical centers and the development of high-tech agriculture- based industries. Kertajati Airport is projected not only to serve the domestic and international aviation industry. Built with an investment of trillions of rupiah, it will also eventually become Indonesia’s largest cargo center.. Given its strategic location, Kertajati will become a domestic hub for the e-commerce cargo industry in West Java and Central Java. In fact, the West Java Provincial Government has planned to review the arrangement of the Kertajati Airport Area to become a business district. It is been supported by a runway of 3,000 meters. Allowing large aircrafts to land at the airport, the Kertajati airport can help overcome overcapacity at the Soekarno-Hatta Airport in Cengkareng, Banten. Furthermore, the West Java Provincial Government continues to encourage the construction of the Cileunyi-Sumedang-Dawuan Toll Road (Cisumdawu) so that next year it can be completed. That way, the plan to invite many international airlines can be realized soon. This means that the airport will open access for the international world to West Java directly, without having to go to Jakarta. We hope that with the development plan charted out by the West Java government, together with collaboration and ninnovation, the Kertajati Airport Area can become a milestone contributing to the progress and welfare of the people of West Java.

Various opportunities for cooperation are wide- open, including West Java cooperation with Russian investors. Emil’s meeting with sister province of West Java, Souss Massa Region, Morocco made an attractive and certainly beneficial agreement for both parties. Based on this agreement, Russia instructed investors to open coffee shops in Russia with special West Java coffee, Java Preanger. Given that coffee is a prime commodity at Souss Massa, there is high possibility to increase national coffee exports abroad. However, the results of these negotiations are not just to bring benefits to West Java. Souss Massa was also given the opportunity to market their staple citrus products to the West Java province which has a population as well as being the biggest fruit consumer in Indonesia. As a result, this program has become a win-win solution for both parties.

Consumer 22 Not only limited to the catch-line, the superior activity of the West Java Provincial Government which has been inherited from the Governor before is still consistently carried out until now. The program is “Ngopi Saraosna” which is consistently held in Gedung Sate. Targeting millennials (18-35 years), the West Java Province Government is trying to make this generation a marketing agent for local coffee in West Java. Because the millennial is the generation which often occupies most of the seats in coffee shops, they become a big enough consumer for the coffee industry. What’s more, the millennial generation is also known to be self-assertive and familiar with the use of social media and digital platforms. Their offline activities are inseparable from their activities in the online world. They also have unlimited access to information. All of these things make the millennial generation an agent of change in the community. Execution starts with marketing campaigns online and offline. The line of Key Opinion Leaders (KOL) was revealed to voice this campaign with a number of key messages. The Ngopi Saraosna concept was designed to be modern and adopted the millennial style. The visitors are invited to discuss directly with a row of big names, starting from the Governor of West Java, coffee activists, related agencies, and even entertainment. 10,000 cups of free coffee were distributed to visitors, where the first 100 coffee cups were served directly by the Governor of West Java and 100 other coffee cups by the Deputy Governor of West Java. Dozens of West Java coffee farmers’ special booths participated in this event. Not to forget, various interesting workshops and band performances from a number of top singers and bands were present in this event. These various activities show how serious is the West Java Province Government to develop the potential of coffee in West Java. Through the Ngopi Saraosna activities, it is hoped that it can increase the millennial engagement with local West Java coffee. When the young generation who will become successors of the region, they will be truly interested and engaged to develop this potential, then the economic movement of West Java will continue to grow. The West Java coffee industry will continue to record better performance over time.

Not only Bali, the country which consists of more than 17 thousand islands, houses many tourist destinations spread across the length and breadth of thousands of islands. West Java is no exception. One of the emerging tourist attractions in West Java is the Ciletuh-Palabuhanratu UNESCO Global Geopark. est Java has a tremendous geological potential resource, in the form of a very beautiful landscape in the Ciletuh region, Sukabumi Regency, West Java Province. The aspiring Ciletuh Geopark, has several geological heritage outcrops that result from the subduction between Eurasian continental plate and Indo- Australian oceanic plate during pre-Tertiary age which are believed to be the oldest rocks exposed on the surface of Western Java.

Currently the remaining areas of indigenous villages are located in kampung Lamping Girimukti village, tomb of Mbah Durak in the Mekarjaya village, and the kampung Cipondok in Waluran District.

In conclusion, Geopark is a management concept of sustainable development of an area based on the geo diversity, biodiversity, and culture diversity through conservation and existing spatial plan of the region. Geopark is a geographical region that has outstanding geological heritage sites and part of a holistic concept of protection, education and sustainable development. Geopark includes not only geological sites, but it has definite geographical boundary as well as the synergy between the diversity of geology, biology and culture in the region. People living in the area are invited to participate in order to protect and improve the functioning of the natural heritage. To realize this concept it needs the support of infrastructure, facilities, regulations, government policies and people’s empowerment. Geopark has the motto: “Celebrating Earth Heritage, Sustaining Local Communities.” Development and sustainable economic growth in the geopark can be achieved through tourism such as: geo-tourism, marine tourism, ecotourism, adventure tourism, cultural tourism, shopping tourism, culinary tourism, and man-made tourism.
