Tourist Attractions of Mount Tangkuban Perahu at Bandung

Tangkuban Perahu, or Tangkuban Parahu in local Sundanese dialect, is an active volcano 30 km north of the city of Bandung, the provincial capital of West Java, Indonesia. It is a popular tourist attraction where tourists can hike or ride to the edge of the crater to view the hot water springs upclose, and buy eggs cooked on its hot surface. This stratovolcano is on the island of Java and last erupted in 1983.

The Legend of Mount Tangkuban Perahu

Once upon a time in west Java, Indonesia lived a wise king who had a beautiful daughter. Her name was Dayang Sumbi. She liked weaving very much. Once she was weaving a cloth when one of her tool fell to the ground. She was very tired at the time so she was too lazy to take it. Then she just shouted outloud. So she said that anybody help her to bring her tool, if a female, she will make her a sister and if a man, she will marry him. Suddenly, a dog came and bring her tool, so she was surprised and also married with the dog. Dayang Sumbi leaved her father and lived with that dog in a small village. Several months later they had a son. His name was Sangkuriang. He was a handsome and healthy boy. Sangkuriang liked hunting very much. He often went hunting to the wood using his arrow. When he went hunting Tumang always with him. In the past there were many deer in Java so Sangkuriang often hunted for deer. Oneday, her mother, Dayang Sumbi wanted to have deer’s heart so she asked Sangkuriang to hunt for a deer. But, because Sangkuriang can’t give what her mother want and also don’t want to make her disspointed, he killed the dog (his father) and gave the dog’s heart to his mother. But, Dayang Sumbi knew that the heart was a dog’s heart (her husband). So she really angry and she could not control her emotion. She hit Sangkuriang at his head. Sangkuriang was wounded. There was a scar in his head. She also repelled her son. Sangkuriang left her mother in sadness.

Many years passed and Sangkuriang became a strong young man. He wandered everywhere. One day he arrived at his own village but he did not realized it. There he met Dayang Sumbi. At the time Dayang Sumbi was given an eternal beauty by God so she stayed young forever. Both of them did not know each other. So they fell in love and then they decided to marry.

But then Dayang Sumbi recognized a scar on his Sangkuriang’s head. She knew that Sangkuriang was his son. So, Dayang Sumbi gave a requirement to Sangkuriang that she wanted Sangkuriang to build a lake and a boat in one night! She said she needed that for honeymoon. Sangkuriang agreed. With the help of genie and spirits Sangkuriang tried to build them. By midnight he had finished the lake by building a dam in Citarum river. Then he started building the boat. It was almost dawn when he nearly finished it. Meanwhile Dayang Sumbi kept watching on them. She was very worried when she knew this. So she made lights in the east. Then the spirits thought that it was already dawn. It was time for them to leave. They left Sangkuriang alone. Without their help he could not finish the boat.Sangkuriang was very angry. He kicked the boat. Then the boat turned out to be Mount Tangkuban Perahu. It means boat upside down. From a distant it looks like a boat upside down.

D. BIRO PERJALANAN UMUM dan AGEN PERJALANAN
Kepariwisataan sebagai suatu industri yang utama ialah pengangkutan.

Sector kegiatan yang tercakup didalamnya ialah perusahan-perusahaan angkutan darat, laut, maupun udara, dan biro perjalanan. Idustri yang kedua ialah akomodasi, sedangkan yang ketiga yaitu segala sesuatu yang menarik wisatawan untuk berkunjung.
Peraturan pokok pengusahaan perusahaan penjalanan (travel agency) ,mula-mula di atus dalam surat keputusan menteri perhubungan no : SK:242/H/1970 tanggal 5 agustus 1970. Sesuai dengan sifat kegiatannya perusahaan perjalanan dibedakan menjadi 2 yaitu wholesaler dan retailer :
1. Wholesaler adalah perusahaan perjalanan yang menyusun rencana perjalanan yang menyeluruh ( Travel Package, Tour) atau pun secara khusus yang di perjualkan kepada retail travel agent.

Akan tetapi karena kesulitan teknis pelaksanaan dari surat keputusan Menteri Perhubungan pembagian kegiatan usaha perusahaan perjalanan menjadi wholesaler dan retailer tidak dapat dijalankan sebagaimana mestinya.
Akhirnya dikeluarkan lagi surat keputusan menteri perhubungan No.: PM.9/PW.104/PHB.77 tanggal 22 Desember 1977 yang isinya mencabut surat keputusan Mentiri Perhubungan no. SK 242/H/1970 tersebut dan selanjutnya menetapkan sbb :
a.Biro Perjalanan Umum adalah perusahaan yang melakukan kegiatan paket wisata dan agen perjalanan;
b. Agen Perjalanan adalah perusahaan yang melakukan kegiatan penjualan ticket/karcis sarana angkutan dan lain-lain serta pemesanan sarana wisata;
c. Cabang Biro Perjalanan Umum adalah satuan-satuan usaha dari suatu Biro Perjalanan Umum yang berkedudukan di tempat yang sama atau di tempat lain san yang memberikan pelayanan sehubungan dengan kegiatan-kegiatan Biro Perjalanan Umum.

Adapun kegiatan-kegiatan usaha tercantum dalam Bab II Pasal 2 sbb :
1. Biro Perjalanan Umum melekukan kegiatan-kegiatan sebagai berikut :
a. Menyusun dan menjual paket wisata luar negeri kepada umum atau atas permintaan.
b. Menyelenggarakan dan menjual pelayaran wisata (cruise)
c. Menyusun dan menjual paket wisata dalam negeri kepada umum atas permintaan;

Ketentuan pelaksanaan Surat Keputusan Menteri Perhubungan No.: PM9/PW.104/Phb-77 tersebut dituangkan dalam Surat Keputusan Direktur Jenderal Pariwisata Nomor: Kep.34/U/I/78 tanggal 21 Januari 1978, yang sekaligus pula mencabut Surat Keputusan Direktur Jenderal Pariwisata Nomor: 13/Kpts/1170 tanggal 24 November 1970.
Pembatasan kegiatan bidang usaha perusahaan perjalanan menurut SK Menteri Perhubungan No. PM.9/PW.104/Phb.77 dibandingkan dengan SK 242/H/1970 bukanlah dimaksudkan untuk mempersempit ruang gerak kegiatan usaha perusahaan perjalanan, melainkan justru dimaksudkan untuk meningkatkan profesionalisme dalam bidang usaha perusahaan perjalanan.

2. Fungsi khusus:

A. Sebagai Perantara
• Di daerah asal wisatawan
1. Melengkapai informasi bagi wisatawan
2. Memberikan advis bagi calon wisatawan
3. Menyediakan tiket
• Di daerah tujuan
1. Memberi informasi bagi wisatawan.
2. Membantu reservasi
3. Menyediakan transportasi
4. Mengatur perencanaan
5. Menjual dan memesan tiket tanda masuk


B. Sebagai organisator.
Karena travel agent sebagai perantara, maka ia berada di tengah-tengah industri pariwisata, maka perlu ada kontrak yang dibuat terlebih dulu. Selain itu itu harus ada perjanjian khusus yang mengatur hubungan kerja sehingga jelas tugas, kewajiban dan hak masing-masing pihak
Faktor Resiko
Biro Perjalanan Wisata memiliki tanggung jawab yang lebih besar dibandingkan Agen perjalanan Wisata. Hal ini disebabkan karena BPW mengeluarkan produknya berupa "Janji Jasa Perjalanan Wisata" yang dijual dalam bentuk “Brosur Paket Wisata" dan BPW harus bertanggungjawab penuh atas pelaksanaan produk yang dikeluarkannya. BPW harus menjamin bahwa wisatawan akan menikmati perjalanannya seperti yang tertulis dalam Brosur Paket Wisata yang dikeluarkan BPW.
Agen Perjalanan Wisata tidak memiliki tanggung jawab atas produk yang dijualnya. Hal ini dikarenakan APW hanya sebagai perantara perusahaan produk kepada konsumen atau pelanggan dan apabila pelanggan tidak puas, mereka harus komplain kepada pemilik produk (misalnya Hotel atau Maskapai Penerbangan).
Faktor Imbalan yang Diperoleh
Biro Perjalanan Wisata memperoleh imbalan atau laba yaitu dari selisih harga penjualan dengan total harga semua komponen yang dijualnya dalam paket wisata. Agen Perjalanan Wisata memperoleh imbalan berupa komisi dari pemilik produk dalam bentuk persen hasil penjualan.

E. KESIMPULAN
Jadi menurut kami pariwisata adalah perjalanan mengunjungi tempat-tempat wisata dengan tujuan untuk bersenang-senang dengan waktu dan tempat yang tak terbatas baik sendirian ataupun bersama-sama. Wisatawan pun ada bermacam-macam seperti tourist, visitor, dan excurcionist. Banyak undang-undang yang mengatur tentang pariwisata.

The gap between the wealth and the poor people

The gap between the wealth and the poor people
---

For the poor people usually they live in the space of road but in UK is have difference:

During the 16th century in England, the state first tried to give housing to vagrants instead of punishing them, by introducing bride wells to take vagrants and train them for a profession. In the 17th and 18th centuries, these were replaced by workhouses but these were intended to discourage too much reliance on state help.

Workhouse was a place where people who were unable to support themselves, could go to live and work.

There is, however, some written evidence that workhouses existed before this date.

Records mention a workhouse in 1631 in Abingdon.

The vagrants' and casual workers' ward of a workhouse was colloquially known as a spike, from the tool used to unpick oakum.

This is the poor law in England, Wales, irlandia and scotland.

England and Wales

Victorian workhouse in Ripon, now used by the local council as offices

The English Poor Law of 1601 marked the beginning of state-provided relief for the poor. Although it made no mention of workhouses, it did place a legal responsibility on each parish to care for those within its boundaries who, either because of age or infirmity, were unable to work. The Act proposed the construction of housing for the impotent poor, who included the elderly and chronically sick, but most assistance for the poor continued to be in the form of outdoor relief – money, food, or other necessities given to those living in their own homes, funded by a local tax on the property of the wealthiest in the parish

The workhouse system began to evolve in the 17th century as a way for parishes to reduce the cost to ratepayers of providing poor relief. The Workhouse Test Act of 1723 was introduced to prevent irresponsible claims on a parish's poor rate. Anyone seeking poor relief could be obliged to enter a workhouse and undertake a set amount of work, usually for no pay, a system known as indoor relief. Many parishes established workhouses during the 18th century, and by the 1830s most parishes had at least one.

Gilbert's Act of 1782 was intended to allow parishes to share the cost of poor relief by forming unions – known as Gilbert Unions – to build and maintain workhouses to accommodate the elderly and infirm. The able-bodied poor were instead either given outdoor relief or found employment locally.

Few workhouses were built under Gilbert's scheme but supplementing wages under a system known as the Speenhamland system did become established.

By the 1830s, the system of poor relief was "on the verge of collapse", caused by a large increase in the number of unemployed persons seeking assistance centralized Poor Law Commission was set up in England and Wales under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834, to reorganize the system of poor relief, and to discourage the allocation of outdoor relief to the able-bodied; "all cases were to be 'offered the house', and nothing else”. Individual parishes were formed into Poor Law Unions, each of which was to have a union workhouse.

Ireland

Following consideration of a report by George Nicholls, the Poor Relief (Ireland) Act, 1838 was passed in Westminster. It was the first Irish poor law and was loosely based on the model being promoted for England and Scotland. Nicholls' recommendation, following a series of short visits to Ireland, ran counter to that of a Commission of Enquiry which had examined the issue of an Irish Poor Law for three years, although both recommended indoor relief to the complete exclusion of outdoor relief. His misunderstanding of fundamental differences in the two jurisdictions was ignored, and his reasoning on sectarian and racial lines as to the cause of such extreme destitution in Ireland found acceptance amongst decision-makers one basic difference in the systems as introduced was with respect to the question of parish Settlement. No Law of Settlement was incorporated in the Irish Poor Law as had been included in the English Poor Law of 1662. This was deliberately to ensure that no perceived right of relief accrued to applicants in Ireland; the decision to grant or refuse assistance was at the discretion of the local Board of Guardians. Initially, 130 Irish Unions were created, and a further 33 were added between 1848 and 1850.

Scotland

In 1579, an Act of the Scottish Parliament "For Punishment of String and Idle Beggars, and Relief of the Pure and Impotent" laid the basis of the system of poor relief in Scotland. Each parish had to make a list of its own poor (those who had been born there or who had lived there for seven years or more) "that the aged, impotent, and pure people, sold have lodging and abiding places", and to enable "heritors" or land-owners to take the children of beggars into unpaid service until they were eighteen (for girls) or twenty-four (for boys).

In 1843 a Commission of Enquiry was appointed to consider the operation of poor laws in Scotland. Its report proposed to broadly keep relief organized at the parish level although parishes, particularly in urban areas, should be united for settlement and poor-relief purposes, including the establishment of united poorhouses. They also proposed the creation of a Board of Supervision to oversee the management of each parish's poor relief. These proposals were put into effect on 4 August 1845 in an Act for The Amendment and better Administration of the Laws Relating to the relief of the Poor in Scotland. This was an enabling Act: parishes could create poorhouses, but were not required to do so, and could group together to provide common poorhouses.

Workhouses were also established in many European countries, but the system was most highly developed in Great Britain and Ireland. Holland, for instance, had only three large workhouses for the entire country, whereas the English county of Cheshire alone had 31 by 1777. Some parishes contracted out their poor-relief provisions – a private contractor would manage the parish's workhouse system for a fixed annual fee. Workhouses were generally harsh and punitive establishments for which Dickens and other writers used the ironic nickname "paupers' palaces"

The Wealth

For the wealth people usually they live near of the capital city or on the downtown UK. And also especially in UK London is the rich city so some rich people choose London be where they live.

The Region

The region of the poor people in UK excessively in Scotland It said Scotland had the largest number of poor people in each of the last four decades, as well as the highest death rate of all 14 regions examined. In 1970, 27% of the Scottish population was classed as breadline poor, with the figure dropping to 23% in 1980. By 1990, 27% of Scots fell into the category, but this rose to 32% in 2000, according to the report.

The region of the rich people in UK excessively in London London is a city of contrasts. It is dynamic and successful and as Europe's richest city it is a key global financial centre. The estimated total Gross Value Added (GVA – an indicator of economic output) for London was 20 % of the UK total, roughly £2651 billion in 2008. Inner London has a per capita GDP over three times the EU average.

London also has some of the most deprived areas in the UK with high levels of worklessness, crime, health and educational inequalities. For example, 28 % of London's neighbourhoods are within the top 20 % most deprived in England.

The 2001 Census shows almost 30 % of London's population belongs to a minority ethnic group, making it one of the most diverse and culturally rich cities in the world. Over 300 languages are spoken in the city and there are at least 50 non-indigenous communities of 10,000 people or more.

Key facts:

• London is a key visitor attraction with the number of people visiting the capital’s tourist and cultural attractions including galleries and museums in April 2009 rising by 20% to 3.6 million, according to figures from Visit London.After the financial and business sector tourism is London’s second largest industry.

• Male life expectancy in London is 78.2 years and female life expectancy is 82.7 years, both higher than the England average.

• Over 40 % of working age adults in London have a degree level qualification or higher, compared with 30.5 % in England.

• English is an additional language for over half of primary school pupils in Inner London compared to 15.2 % for England.

• Recorded crime in London to September 2009 has decreased by 2% since the last year and there has been an increase in the percentage of adults who agree that the police and local councils are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime that matter in the local area.

• London has the highest level of business start ups in the UK.

• London is the most ethnically diverse region in the UK. Of the 20 most ethnically diverse councils in the UK, 19 are in London.

• 32.5% of London children live in poverty (552,725 children) with 68% of these in lone parent families.

• 36% of children in London live in social housing.

• Employment rates in London are relatively stable at 70%.

• There were 28,302 new homes built in London in 2008/09

London is not the whole of Britain, and sometimes the rest of Britain has reasons to be grateful, because there are things that happen to London that shouldn't have happened to Sodom and Gomorrah.

Elsewhere in the country, if you have any money left after recent developments in the world financial market, you might have some hope of building your house higher if you want to, or even adding a bit on to it. In London that's harder, but it's still possible to build downwards. You can put some extra floors under your house.

At the bottom end they are mainly British, at the top almost entirely foreign. Thus out of the top 10 people in London and the South-east, only one - Sir Richard Branson - is British. Of the top 10 richest in Britain, as revealed in the latest Sunday Times survey, only three are British. The three richest - Lakshmi Mittal, Roman Abramovich and Hans Reusing - are Indian, Russian and Swedish.

Live of the wealth people in UK

At the top the rich fall into two main groups: global entrepreneurs who chose to relocate to Britain and tax exiles from continental Europe, in particular Scandinavia. Further down there are larger numbers of people who have come to London to make money, mostly in financial services, including many Americans and Britons.

So the conclusion of that statement is alot of rich people in UK have contribute in others jobs and they are leader.

There are approximately 600 pre-Reformation churches in England named after Saint Andrew, in contrast to a handful of Scottish churches of all denominations named after a saint. Nevertheless, it was Scotland that adopted Andrew as its patron - probably because, of Saint Andrew being the brother of Saint Peter, it gave the Scots considerable political leverage with the Pope in pleading for help against the belligerent Home! However, it is Scotland which adopted Andrew as patron - perhaps because, Saint Andrew the brother of Saint Peter, it provides sufficient political influence with the Pope in Scotland pleading for help to fight against the English. When, in 1603, the new King James I and VI tried to create a united flag, the Scottish Saltire declined because of the cross have been given a lower position in the design. Scottish ships at sea persisted in flying the Saint Andrew's Cross. The ships remained at sea flying Scottish Saint Andrew's Cross.
