Abstract

The concept of Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) has been accepted as one of viable alternative to promote the infrastructure development. Yet, recently some of government institutions have been applied PPPs for developing local tourism site for their region. The situation is going to be more complex when the PPPs deal with some non-physical attributes and generate several shortcomings. Therefore the need of specific model to cover PPPs as the concept and tourism development as its substance is become essential. This research attempts to explore the model by using a specific review toward the recent literatures and theories. It is conducted by contextual approaches intended to adjust with Indonesian tourism development. The result of this research has described the specific model which is constructed from the series of literature discussion from previous studies. It has designed to minimize the weakness and vulnerable points from PPPs for tourism development.
