INTRODUCTION

I.1. BACKGROUND OF STUDY

Globalization makes societies interconnected and has no limited for distance which then led to the world as a common room for social activities, economic and political.1 These conditions make the country more and improve competitiveness in the global competition, especially for developing countries which can use attraction and appearance, such as football which is stick with the brazil. Concurrently with the above condition, sport used as Soft Power Instrument. As one of the issue that arise in International Relations, now sports is not just a sport, but the sport has become a political tool to achieve national interest, one of it is in diplomacy, even sport has turned into good means in developing relations between nations.2 An International sport event can be seen as effort to achieve national interest for the host.

The Emergence of soft power as a form of other power besides hard power in international relations activities have implications on the conduct of diplomacy. Soft power becomes the main tool of diplomacy where today called as soft diplomacy. The tendency of the implementation of soft diplomacy by using soft power application is considered effective and efficient so easy to do without having to take its toll and at great expense. As an actor changing paradigm of international relations, the implementation of soft diplomacy involves a wide range of non-government actors. Therefore, soft diplomacy is the real form of the use of instruments other than political pressure, military and economic pressure by promoting the cultural element in diplomatic activities. Therefore, International sport event uses soft diplomacy in achieving national Interest.

1 The term of soft power was first introduced by Harvard professor Joseph Nye, Jr., which refers to the ability to influence the behavior of other countries by attracting and persuading others to adopt one’s goals.3 In contrast to “hard power” which is described as a military force which tends to force the state behavior.4 Ideas and debates on soft power stems from political changes and configurations of power in international politics at a time when the cold war ended. Major wars have occurred in modern history now never occur again. This is because many international communities reject the use of violence in achieving national interest. In the context of this history, academics and policy makers began to looks for other ways to pursue its national objectives.

In achieving their interests, a country needs diplomacy. One of the way is by using public diplomacy and cultural diplomacy. Public diplomacy is an instrument that government use to mobilize the resources to communicate with and attract the public of other countries.5 In fact, the term of Public Diplomacy describe as the direct or mass-mediated communication activities by individuals, governmental, and non-governmental organizations to a foreign publics and/or the domestic publics by conveying or even exchanging information in order to directly or indirectly reduce negative platitudes and prejudices, in creating sympathy and understanding for its nation’s ideals, goals, (foreign) policies, its institutions, culture and model of society, to build a positive image and relationships, and therefore to make the achievement of international policy goals easier, facilitate close political ties or alliance to encourage tourism and inward investment.6

The concept of public diplomacy has traditionally associated with the promotion of the image of a country abroad. Public Diplomacy is based on the premise that the image and reputation of a country are public goods which can

2 create either an enabling or a disabling environment for individual transactions.7 According to Leonard, there is a hierarchy of impacts that public diplomacy can achieve:

 Increasing people’s familiarity with one’s country (making them think about it, updating their images, turning around unfavourable opinions)  Increasing people’s appreciation of one’s country (creating positive perceptions, getting others to see issues of global importance from the same perspective)  Engaging people with one’s country (strengthening ties – from education reform to scientific co-operation; encouraging people to see us as an attractive destination for tourism, study, distance learning; getting them to buy our products; getting to understand and subscribe to our values)  Influencing people (getting companies to invest, publics to back our positions or politicians to turn to us as a favoured partner).8

In this case the authors will analyze how Indonesia, as the country has the beauty and diversity of culture trying to improve tourism by using the power of public diplomacy.

In addition to public diplomacy there is also cultural diplomacy, cultural diplomacy is considered effective to achieve national interests of a nation because it is done peacefully without coercion. Culture has a broad meaning because as a macro dimension, culture is not just an art or customs but also culture is any result and human effort. Literally the word of "culture" itself contains the meaning of "kindness" and "Mind", both of which known as 'the power of the mind' in the form of creativity, taste, intention, and even as a result of creativity, taste, and the initiative itself.9

3 Many countries are trying to get recognition through the cultural diplomacy, for example through the arts, sports and others. One of the way that can be used to realize the Cultural Diplomacy is with sport, which is this method has a great potential because all the public can take the role in it.

International sport event is an effective way to strengthening relations between countries, to ease tension and promote peace. Several conflict between country accidentally resolved through games involving between two countries which are involved in a conflict, therefore appeared a term of sport diplomacy, one of the instrument of soft power and diplomacy of a nation. The implementation of sport diplomacy usually through competition between countries to promote the national interest.

Some of the successful example of sport diplomacy is the rapprochement of Turkey and Armenian relations in 2008 through a football match which is also known as football diplomacy. Through football match, the two countries which have long decided to separate, given back hope to restore relations between two countries, even to re-unite as one nation.10 Another successful practice of sport diplomacy is Ping-Pong Diplomacy in 1971 to bridge the relationship between and US began interwoven through the Ping-Pong diplomacy approach.11 Based on two example above, sport diplomacy can be seen as an instrument of soft power that can provide huge contribution achieving the national interest of a country.

Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) is a sport event hold biennial which involving participants from 10 member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nation (ASEAN) which are Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, , Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and one participating country (East Timor). The event of SEA Games is set under regulation of the

In 2011, Indonesia once again trusted to be a host country in leading the International sport event. In the biggest sporting event throughout Southeast Asia, SEA Games 2011 is considered very effective for Indonesia in improving the promotion of tourism sector as well as growing the economic sector in creative area. Director of Domestic Promotion in the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy of Republic Indonesia stated that sport and tourism can not be separated, because both of them are complementary. 13 This 2011 throughout Southeast Asia sport event will be used as the tool to promote the tourism in Indonesia.

Therefore, SEA Games 2011 can be used as a tool of Diplomacy, increasing and promoting tourism. Also with the number of tourists coming to Indonesia also give advantages economically because the increasing number of tourism to Indonesia will also significantly increase the economic sector.

I.2. PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION

Tourist is a good asset for the economy of societies where it considered able to support the increasing economy nationally. We all know that there are so many famous tourist attractions in Indonesia, not only in the country, there are many famous tourist attractions to foreign countries such as Bali, Lombok, Wakatobi, Bunaken and many others. Those destination include water attractions are very famous for its beauty. But also many tourist destination that have a very good potential but received less attention from the government, not maintained these places will cause no longer interesting to visit. And with the number of visitors or tourist can be utilized by the government and societies itself. With the

5 number of tourist that come to Indonesia, the community's economy will certainly increase, ranging from lodging, transportation, shopping, souvenirs will bring in revenue that drives the economy. Unfortunately this potential can not be utilized effectively which is a challenge for the government and society.

6 On the number of foreign tourist arrivals to Indonesia in 2010-2012, a total of ASEAN countries visited Indonesia before the SEA Games in 2010 as many as 3,052,285, in 2011 the total number of foreign tourist as many as 3,284,664 and in 2012 after the SEA Games the total number as many as 3,375,291.16 So, the total of visitors of all regions including ASEAN countries visiting Indonesia in 2010 as many as 7,002,944, in 2011 the total as many as 7,649,731 and in 2012 the total numbers of visitors as many as 8,044,462. According to the Central Statistical Agency above, with the number of visitors or tourist it is explained how the tourism in Indonesia increasingly from year-to- year, which this is also become the challenges for Indonesia to keep maintain the number of visitors.

In the other explanation, Indonesia is still unable to compete with neighbouring countries related to the tourism sector where each year the number of visitors in Indonesia before the SEA Games started reached 6 million in total, while between the ASEAN countries itself is only reached 3 million, and it is still far if compared with neighbouring countries that reach over 20 thousand visitors. This is because the government of the neighboring countries do sustainable improvement on the field of tourism where countries like Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand always increase in the number of visitors. Even Vietnam where the natural conditions are almost the same with Indonesia is able to attract more visitors.17

If we look at the 25th SEA Games on December 9th to 18th 2009 in Laos, there are a lot of positive effects gained by Laos, which is politically proved that Laos secure since the end of Socialist. Modern Laos is the root of the ancient Lao kingdom of Lane Xang, established in the 14th century under the leadership of the king of the FA Ngum. For 300 years, Lane Xang has a big influence to Cambodia and Thailand. But after his influence began to decline, Siam (Thailand)

7 began to dominate Laos, it began late 18th century until the late 19th century, when it became part of French Indochina. After that, held the Franco-Siamese treaty in 1907 which split the Lao with Thailand. In 1975, the Lao Communist Party took over the government, which marked the end of six centuries of monarchy and the beginning of the socialist regime, as well as in Vietnam. Laos became the member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in 1997, and they had the honour to host the 25th Southeast Asian Games in 2009.18

Sports diplomacy would be seen as an imaging effort for Southeast Asia countries through its willingness to host the event and participation in the Southeast Asian Games. As noted by Victor D. Cha, in East Asia sport has become one of the important way to show the development in the countries of Southeast Asia. All developing and developed countries in East Asia has been and will host the international sport events to "express" their readiness to compete at the global level. For example like Olympics in 1964, Olympics in 1988, football World Cup 2002 in Korea and Japan, and the 2008 Olympics is how the major countries in East Asia reinforce the country's image as a developed country.19

In a multi-pronged sport competitions such as SEA Games, the most successful imaging obtained when a country is able to be the host and be able to become the overall champion. Success to be the host emphasize the advancement of a country, because organizing the event required readiness funds, for example infrastructure such as transportation and communications networks, sports facilities and good organization. While the success of the overall champion means the sport development have gone well. Sports development itself can not run properly without the condition of the economy, education and health support in the country. The SEA Games 2009 in Laos also seen as imaging of Laos in

Talking about cultural diplomacy, sport is one form of cultural diplomacy, the purpose of cultural diplomacy is to influence public opinion or other peoples' societies to support a particular foreign policy. Therefore, Southeast Asian Games in 2011 can be used as a means of diplomacy, increasing number of tourism and promoting the tourism of Indonesia. For example on terrorism, bomb attacks carried out by terrorists in October 2002 have resulted in material losses, prolonged trauma, disability and victims of human lives. More than 298 people were killed and 838 wounded in a terrorist attack in Indonesia in the period 2000- 2010. While the material losses because of terrorist attacks are buildings, vehicles, and public facilities were damaged, then another loss because of this attack are economic, tourist and social because it reduces trust for tourist and International world towards Indonesia20.

In addition, in the last few years there are many terror bombings, for example at the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta. The terror bombing itself is not just get the response from the local and central government, but it also from countries in the world, especially for countries whose citizens are victims of explosions. International countries condemning the anarchic acts that did by terrorists. The bomb explosion in Bali has given direct impact on tourism, especially in Bali. The number of tourist departures at Ngurah Rai International Airport is rapidly increasing. The success of SEA Games 2011 also can improve the image of Indonesia in the eyes of the International. This is because lately Indonesia can be said to be high-risk country to be visited by tourists caused many incidents such as suicide bombings and frequent riots (demo) everywhere and it is decreasing the number of foreign tourists in Indonesia.

Therefore, the success of the SEA Games 2011 will provide many benefits for Indonesia in achieving its national Interest which are increasing the number of

To explain the existing problems above, there will be four concepts used, which are National Interest, the soft power on Mega Event, Public Diplomacy, Cultural Diplomacy These concept is expected to explain and illustrate how big the impact of SEA Games 2011 as an instrument of soft power in achieving Indonesia's national interest in tourism sector.

I.6.1. National Interest

According to Jack C. Plano and Olton Roy, the national interest is the fundamental objective and the most decisive factors that guide decision-makers in the formulation of foreign policy, national interests is the common conception, but it is an element that becomes a vital necessity for the country. These elements include the survival of the nation and the state, independence, territorial integrity, security, military, and economic prosperity.21

The national interest in a narrow sense can be defined as “general welfare, legal protection of rights and interests to maintain the life sustainability in politic and culture identity.”22 Whereas, according to Morgenthau, the national interests of a country are the pursuit of power which is anything that can establish and maintain control of a country on the other countries.23 The power will not be achieved without national strength. Politics of a country can not be separated from a national interest, since the purpose of politics is to defend national interests.

Therefore, the purpose of Indonesian foreign policy formulation leading to defend the sustainability of nation, to conduct the diplomacy to increase the number of tourism and promoting tourism in Indonesia and to improve the image of Indonesia in International community as safe country to visit.

11 I.6.2. Soft power on Sport Mega- Event

The second face of power or we usually called it Soft Power, according to Joseph Nye, Soft power is the ability to ‘get others to want outcomes that you want’ unite people or corporate with them instead of force them,24 soft power puts on the ability to the ability to form the others’ preferences. Soft power is not simply the same as effect, hard power has also effect on menaces or payments; soft power is more than persuasion or the ability to move others by argument but it also the capability to attract which often lead to acquiescence. Political leaders understand the power of attraction, if that can get others to do what they want, and then they do not have to use hard power to make others do it. Soft power is a principle of daily democratic politics activities; the power to establish preferences tends to be linked with inexplicable assets such as a delightful identity, culture, state values and organizations and policies that appeared as valid authority.25

According to Nye, the changing nature of international relations after the end of cold war and the risk tied to spread traditional military forms of power has directed to ‘intangible power resources such as culture, ideology, and organizations becoming more important in international relations.26 Soft power is a key and found in the capability of states,27 sport mega-events have potentials to provide appearing power and opportunities to produce attraction even where they have unattractive domestic political characteristics, and the key benefit of sports mega-event is that the hosting countries can communicate their elegances through sport’s cultural values which are shared in the sport mega-events. 28 Hosting countries can raise their culture beauty to other countries by showing that they do

I.6.3. Public Diplomacy

Diplomacy is a way for achieve the interests of an actor in a peaceful way, so war is considered as a last resort to resolve a conflict. The diplomacy during World War II is a formal dialogue between countries to resolve the conflict. However, as time goes by and globalization which increasingly makes the countries in the world are connected and interdependence, diplomacy is also develop. In the post-cold war, diplomacy then not only done by the state, but also non-state actors, such as the International Organization, Multinational Corporations, and individuals. Media communication then becomes very important in connecting each actor in terms of diplomacy, causing the emerging concept of Public Diplomacy. Both of these elements have an important role for the government to run their Public Diplomacy.30 Public Diplomacy is a way to build relationships by understanding the needs, culture, and society; communicating the vision; justify misperceptions that exist in the international community; look for the area where the government can find the common ground. 31 Public Diplomacy defined as a process of communication to the foreign public governments that aims to provide an understanding of the state, attitudes, institutions, culture, national interests, and policies that taken by the country.32 Jay Wang seen Public Diplomacy as an effort to enhance the quality of communication between the state and society. The impact of that includes the political, economic, social, and in its implementation, is no longer monopolized by the government.33 Meanwhile, Jan Mellisen defined Public Diplomacy as an effort to affect other peoples or organizations outside the

13 country in positive way to changing the people’s perspective to a country. 34 Based on all definitions, it can be said that Public Diplomacy is used to promote national interests through understanding, informing, and influencing public outside the country. Because, Public Diplomacy is an instrument of soft power. I.6.4 Cultural Diplomacy

According to KM Panikkar in his book "The Principles and Practice of Diplomacy" stated, "Diplomacy, in conjunction with international politics is "The art of promoting the interests of a country in relation with other countries."35

Culture in a general sense means all the results and efforts of cultivation of man on the environment, so that cultural diplomacy can be interpreted as an attempt of a nation to fight for its national interests through the dimensions of culture, both in micro such as education, science, sports, and the arts, or any macro in accordance with the characteristics the main characteristic, such propaganda and others, which in the conventional sense can be considered as non-political, economic, or military. Some literature calls it propaganda.36

Actor of cultural diplomacy can be done by the government or non- government, individual or collective, or any nation, so the pattern that occurs in the form of government relations to government, public to private, private - private, government - private, the main purpose of cultural diplomacy is to influence public opinion (the people of other countries) to support a particular foreign policy. The general pattern that usually occurs in diplomatic relations is between people (a country) with other people (other countries). However, the general opinion meant here is to influence government policy communities concerned. Whereas the main purpose of cultural diplomacy is public opinion, both in the national level (of a certain community of nation states) as well as international level, with expectations that public opinion can influence the

14 decision makers in government or international organization.37 The relationship between the actor and the target of cultural diplomacy can be seen as follows:

Country A Country B

Government Government

Power

Interest Interest

Strategy Society Society

Figure 1.1. Actors and cultural diplomacy objectives.38

Figure above explains that each country, in order to achieve the national interest, always optimizing the national resources (national power). In the utilization of culture, the whole national strength engineered into Cultural Strategy.

Based on the figure above, the international sport event or SEA Games whose role in doing cultural diplomacy is the government as well as society (SEA Games 2011 organizing committee, corporate sponsors, etc.). Government and society in a country to achieve its national interests to maximize national power which is with the cultural strategy through the SEA Games 2011 so that the International community will further to know Indonesia from various fields.

The main objective of the cultural diplomacy is to influence public opinion (the people of other countries) in order to support a foreign policy in

15 order to achieve the national interest. 39 Material and content of the Cultural Diplomacy is all about macro and micro considered as utilization of cultural aspects (in foreign policy), among others: the arts, tourism, sports, technology, education and others. In macro, Cultural Diplomacy is the efforts of a country in the defense of the national interests through the dimensions of culture, including the use of fields of ideology, technology, politics, economics, sports, military, social, artistic, and others in the arena of the international community.40

Sport is a culture. Culture can be connected with other elements such as the issues that related with the relations between nations, called diplomacy. The use of cultural diplomacy is more effective because the culture itself is an important thing that concerns the life of the community. As what have been explained, sport is also part of cultural diplomacy, diplomacy through sport (sport diplomacy) until now has been developed by some countries in the world, this is because cultural diplomacy through this sport can introduce the country's distinctive culture. Therefore, the SEA Games 2011 used as a means of cultural diplomacy because it is more effective to build the relations between nations and promoting culture through sport, through the SEA Games as well, Indonesia shows its development to the world.

I.7. LITERATURE REVIEW

Writing about the research related to the conduct of mega sports events and national interests has provided information in the form of research, journals, books, or in any other form. This literature review aims to provide relevant information and made a comparison with the current study.

A research from David Black entitled The Symbolic Politics of Sport Mega-Event explain widespread benefits derived from the implementation of an

16 international sporting event for the host country.41 Black emphasis on economic benefits and development, including investment in infrastructure and promotion of self-directed opportunity to widen investment, tourism, and also the ability to attract similar events in the future. Mega sport event itself has a long history as a vehicle to articulate key messages related to the host. Further also seen in the format in major events such as the opening and closing ceremonies, which are projecting chance compelling narrative about the host country. According to Black each country has a vulnerability identity and political economy, and competing in a global world and then see that the implementation of an international sports competition as an opportunity to face the vulnerability and the need for this among other alternatives.

Airton Valente Saboya Junior and Joan Noguera Tours wrote that the organization of International sport events provides great effect with the arrival of participants and spectators, it has attraction for the media and it is a major investment in infrastructure, logistics and security for the organizers. 42 The organizers have the opportunity of showing the cultural and social as well as political and economic capabilities to the world.

Brazil as the host country of Football World Cup in 2014 has been building and modernizing public infrastructure and services so that with the attractive packaging they can attract and increase tourism and also will attract more investors to invest in Brazil. For the event of the 2014 World Cup, Brazil expand funds around $ 15 billion US dollars to develop the host cities, the modernization of infrastructure, public facilities and transport, improving public services and also to build and improve sports facilities. For the construction sector, logistics, tourism, hospitality and business services are the sectors that get benefits from the World Cup 2014 in Brazil. Besides that, 2014 World Cup will

Organizing sport event impacting the organizer country as described by Suzanne Dowse comparing with the 2010 World Cup in South Africa with the 2006 World Cup in Germany in International Politics, Germany, South Africa, and FIFA World Cup.43 Dowse connect the International sport event with soft power of the country where the positive potential of an International sports event is identified through its ability to attract global attention and increase the attraction towards the host country and even outside the event.

Organizing International sports competitions give the host country a platform to raise their profile and give a message to the International community. 44 Positive perceptions and emotional attraction from the sport, especially when related with the national team, making this sport event give the moment where a country can celebrate their national pride and patriotism. As a result, the event could also mobilize cultural attributes that attract and provide a context in which other social and political beliefs can be projected.

The function of sport event as a soft power is more likely to be promoted to the main objective, namely the economy, then the purpose of national development and consolidation of political legitimacy. Dowse takes the case of Germany in the 2006 FIFA World Cup, which is by the main motivation to update the image and relate financial opportunity as the country that is modern, innovative and friendly tourism destination. It also has ambitions of national development in a nation that once divided and still keep the wounds of World War II. The results of this event is able to meet the expectations of Germany as the host.

18 Although it has similarities as a developed country to host, the influence and power of South Africa that weaker would affect the orientation and the results that they get as the host compared to Germany. With the power of the relatively weaker, the international sport event can be used as a tool of diplomacy to move the soft power potential of developing countries.

Then Humphreys and Prokopowicz also wrote how the event of the UEFA Championship or European Cup is able to give significant impact towards the host country.45 UEFA (Union of European Football Association) as the European football authorities require that Poland and Ukraine as hosts providing public infrastructure and accommodation that is integrated with the transport system for the participants and spectators. More than 500 thousand people will go to Poland and Ukraine which will certainly bring benefits to the economic actors. Poland and Ukraine as Euro 2012 organizers broadly benefited in three things: Increasing foreign travelers both participants and spectators when organizing the 2012 European Cup and after the event is complete, infrastructure and public services are getting better; as well as a sense of nationalism citizens increases.46

From the above research can be concluded there is a closeness toward what is observed in this study. This study will find out what the role of sport event SEA Games 2011 in achieving the national interests and its effects on tourism of Indonesia.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEA GAMES AND INDONESIA HOSTING SEA GAMES 2011

II.1. The Development of SEA Games

Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) is a sport event hold biennial which involving participants from 10 member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nation (ASEAN) which are Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and one participating country (East Timor).

23 Games was come from the fact that the exchange of sport often happened between Thailand and other neighboring countries. 49 SEAP Games proposed because sport events will help promote cooperation, understanding and also to keep solidarity among the Southeast Asia region.50

Myanmar become the first country that send its invitation to Thailand to compete in football, rugby, badminton, tennis, boxing, basketball, athletics regularly, perhaps rather traditionally. Laung Sukhum Nayapradit, who was the Vice President of National Olympic Committees of Thailand, had a thought that the South East Asia Peninsular Group could be organized similar like “The Asian Games” or “The Olympic Games”, as the people in this region have the similarity in climate and in physical appearance in order to improving and increasing sporting standards of the South East Asia Peninsular member countries, before compete in other international multi-sport games, such as the Asian Games and the Olympic Games. therefore, this would help them to enhance their potentials in sport, also in relationship and in cooperation among the neighboring countries.51

At that point, in 1958, Laung Sukhum Nayapradit gave his concept to Mr.Dave Kicher, honorary coach of Amateur Athletic Association of Thailand, who privately left for Cambodia and Vietnam between 8 and 14 February 1958 to discuss and sound out opinions about this matter with foreigners further. At that time Cambodia and Vietnam seem fully supports that proposal. then, the idea was accepted and materialized when he submitted the issue to the Thailand Olympic Committee meeting on February 22, 1958. The meeting accepted in principle and organization of SEAP Games was set to launch for the first time in December 1958 in Along with the creation of the 1st SEAP Games, assignments were made to let Laung Sukhum Nayapradit, Mr. Kong Visudharomn and Mr.

III.2. Development of Tourism Sector in Indonesia

The progress of Indonesian tourism is inseparable from the effort that was pioneered since several decades ago. According to Oka. A. Yoeti, based on the development period, the history of Indonesian tourism can be divided into three important periods namely: The Dutch colonial period, the period of Japanese occupation, and after Indonesia became independent. Then, continued to the new chapter of tourism in Indonesia.101

III.2.1. The Dutch Colonial Period

Colonial tourism activities began in 1908, after the decision of Governor General Van Heutsz on the establishment of Vereeneging Toeristen Verkeer (VTV) which was an agency or official tourist bureau at that time. With the decision of the governor-general, shows that the colonial government also paid attention to the tourism sector which is one of the foreign exchange earners apart from the trade sector. To support the promotion of tourism then the colonial government at that time to include the in exhibitions in Europe.102

The establishment of VTV in 1908 is the beginning for the tourism archipelago. VTV served to develop tourism in the Dutch East Indies and to develop tourism, VTV works together with some Dutch hindia companies such as KPM (Koninklijke Paketvaart Maatschappij), KNILM (Koninklijke Nederlandsch-Indische Luthvaart Maatschappij), JMC (Java Motor Club),

39 ABHINI (Algemeenen Bond Hotelhoulders in Nederlandsch-Indie) 103 , Staatsspoor-en Tramwegen. The job VTV was to promote the Dutch East Indies which was safe for foreigner tourist to visit.104

The Increased of trade between the continent of Europe and countries in Asia, including in Indonesia has resulted in a large number of people traveling with different motives according to their individual needs. To be able to provide services to those who travel, then established a Travel Agent in Batavia in 1926, namely Linssonne Lindeman (LISLIND)105 centered in the and now known as NITOUR (Netherlanshe Indische Touristen Bureau).

In the 1920s began to emerge various travel agents and other tourism organizations that helped the development of tourism in the Dutch East Indies such as NITOUR, Tourist Association of Garoet, Tourist Association of Magelang, Bandung Vooruit and others.106 In the Dutch colonial period it can be said that tourism activities was limited to whites people only and also the companies engaged in tourism was also the monopoly by NITOUR, KNILM (Koninklijke Nederlandsch-Indische Luchtvaart Maatschappij) and KPM 107 (Koninklijke Pakervaart Maatschappij) at that time. Although tourist visits at that time is still very limited, but in some cities and places in Indonesia has stood the hotel to ensure accommodation for those visiting the Dutch East Indies.108

The growth of the new accommodation business was known in the 19th century, it was also limited to large cities near the harbor only. The main hotel functions only to serve guests or passengers aboard newly arrived from the Netherlands or other European countries, which is then taken by using trains pulled with some horses because there is no car at that time. Entering the 20th

40 century then the hotels began to develop into the hinterland, like a guesthouse or inn. Since then the function of the hotel began to be perceived by the public a lot and people put themselves in accordance with the ability and degree respectively. Then from that it is known the term big inn (Hotel) and small inn (Inn).109

Furthermore, the only airline connecting Indonesia with the Netherlands at the time was KNILM which had a monopoly position for the operation of carrying passengers between these two countries. Same as KNILM, in 1928 sea transport was also monopolized by KPM. While the passenger transport by using a new train effective on the island of Java on October 1, 1927. At that time the passengers who want to travel to the island of Java must make a reservation seat three hours before the train departs. In 1927 tour activities have started to be developed especially in Java and Sumatra island which organized by LISLIND (Lissonne Lindeman). 110 To promote the Dutch East Indies tourism, VTV as tourist government office cooperates with various parties such as KPM, KNILM and also hotels to accommodate foreign tourists.111 With the cooperation of the Dutch East Indies government managed to attract foreign tourists and the number is growing from year to year.

III.2.2. During the Japanese Occupation Period

The occurrence of World War II in Europe as well as in Asia cause the cessation of tourism activities around the world. In Indonesia, tourism activities where the majority are Dutch people also come to a halt. Since the Japanese occupation in 1942, the tourist objects abandoned and also all the tourism facilities many taken by japan. Hotels that still in good condition being settled by Japanese army officers.112

54 Based on the previous explanation, the national interest is interpreted as an interest in maintaining the politics and cultural identity, in this case, one of Indonesia's national interests is to increase the tourism sector to balance the competitiveness and also introduce the natural wealth and culture owned by Indonesia and make the good image of Indonesia in the international eyes as a safe country to visit by foreign tourists, which will also give the benefits in economic sector with the increasing of economic growth in Indonesia. In achieving its national interests, the Indonesian government choose sports to achieve these interests.

According to Joseph Nye, Soft power is the ability to ‘get others to want outcomes that you want’ unite people or corporate with them instead of force them, 149 soft power puts on the ability to the ability to form the others’ preferences. Soft power is a key and found in the capability of states150, sport mega-events have potentials to provide appearing power and opportunities to produce attraction even where they have unattractive domestic political characteristics, and the key benefit of sports mega-event is that the hosting countries can communicate their elegances through sport’s cultural values which are shared in the sport mega-events.151 Hosting countries can raise their culture beauty to other countries by showing that they do not only share those denomination, but they desire to be a victor as well, and celebrate together with their own way of state and culture.152 With the explanation, Indonesia uses sport mega event, which in this case is Southeast Asian Games 2011 (SEA Games 2011) as a means of diplomacy in achieving the interests or objectives, namely increasing the number of foreign tourists that come to Indonesia.

The impacts of which are political, economic, social, and in practice are no longer monopolized by the government. 153 Jan Mellisen defines public diplomacy as an attempt to influence other people or organizations outside their country in a positive way that Changing people's point of view toward a country. From all of these understandings, it can be seen that public diplomacy serves to promote the national interest through understanding, informing, and influencing the public abroad.154

By becoming of Indonesia as the host country of SEA Games 2011, Indonesia utilizing SEA Games 2011 as a means of cultural diplomacy to increase the number of foreign tourists and promote Indonesian tourism, it is needs the role of media and society, where this role is done to influence public opinion through mass media.
