摘要:This study aims to analyze the constraints and opportunities of the Bukit Lawang Orangutan Conservation Tourism (WKOB) management and also to formulate an alternative policy strategy in overcoming the obstacles of managing the WKOB. Method used in this research is involving several experts related to this research. The results showed the main constraints in the management of WKOB are the lack of integration of costs and entry fees, poor infrastructure to WKOB, lack of facilities, and too many entrances. Other constraints are the lack of stakeholder roles, particularly the local government of Langkat Regency, the lack of strict enforcement of regulations on environment and cleanliness, the lack of information and promotion of tourism, and the low mindset and public awareness of the importance of ecotourism and conservation. The threat of environmental damage to Gunung Leuser National Park, especially river rock mining (the existence of excavation C) in Bahorok river. An alternative strategy to overcome obstacles in managing WKOB is the need for integrated and professional sustainable tourism management.
