Edward H. Huijbens Examiner: dr. ir. Martijn Duineveld Wageningen University and Research Department of Environmental Science Cultural Geography Chair Group Master of Science in Tourism, Society and Environment i ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Tourism has been an inseparable aspect of my life, starting with having a passion for travelling until I decided to take a big step to study about it back when I was in vocational high school. I would say, learning tourism was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life considering opportunities and experiences which I encountered on the process. I could recall that four years ago, I was saying to myself that finishing bachelor would be my last academic-related goal in my life. However, today, I know that I was wrong. With the fact that the world and the industry are progressing and I raise my self-awareness that I know nothing, here I am today taking my words back and as I am heading towards the final chapter from one of the most exciting journeys in my life – pursuing a master degree in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Never say never. In completing this thesis, I received countless assistances and helps from people that I would like to mention. Firstly, I would not be at this point in my life without the blessing and prayers from my parents, grandma, and family.

Global aviation has experienced many crises in the past, each of which has had a significant impact on air traffic. After each fall, the industry recovers and returns stronger, exceeding the previous volume of traffic; however, the COVID-19 pandemic presents a new level of concern, with unknown detrimental effects. The airlines, airports and all other partners involved have greatly suffered. The airport system has been hit by flight closures in many markets, including Indonesia. Airport management and operating companies, concessionaires, terminal tenants, ground handling and catering companies, and the various partners involved are under stress and financial constraints due to the pandemic. In response to this, the flight plan for the “new normal” takes into account the new flight demand and airline market structure scenarios. By using the qualitative approach, this research tries to construct recovery models and strategies for the Indonesian aviation industry post-pandemic.

ASEAN and Asian Security in the Age of Pandemics This presentation will assess the impact of COVID-19 on US-China competition, China-ASEAN relations, and ASEAN centrality in the regional architecture of Indo-Pacific. While the pandemic has far-reaching effects on Asia, it is too early to assess it long-term effects. The pandemic might accelerate the rise of Asia, but fears of a Chinese hegemony are far-fetched, as China faces distrust and pushback on its own pandemic diplomacy.

Meteorologycal Climatologycal and Geophysics Agency has committed for developing earthquake ground motions accelerometer sensor in Indonesia since 2004. This report presents characteristics ground motion records of East Java related with the potential damage area close to epicenter used ground motion recorded which have been detected from Indonesia National Strong Motion Network. More than 50 accelerometer sensors had detected during that earthquake at the epicenter distance less than 1000 km. GEJI accelerometer station located is closest to earthquake source with the epicenter distance 64.4 km to epicenter. As an early report that accordance to SNI 1710-2019 GEJI accelerometer station as classified soil class D, it showed maximum peak ground acceleration of GEJI accelerometer station is 223.08 gals and maximum spectral acceleration 642.5 gals at 0.2 second. It has estimated impact ground shaking V-VI MMI. Three accelerometers which have the large motion with PGA more than 100gals have been identified, they showed that the horizontal shaking is larger than vertical at the PGA, short period Ss and long period spectra S1.
