Agus Tantho | Achmad Fitrian

Abstract: The election of Indonesia as the second best halal tourism destination in the world in 2018 by prioritizing the island of Lombok (the island of a Thousand Mosques) located in the province of West Nusa Tenggara turns out that the Indonesian government has not held a strong legal basis at the level of the Law, even though Indonesia still ranks second in the best halal tourism in the world, with the first place won by Malaysia. This research method is a descriptive study and including development research, as well. Whereas earlier, the island of Lombok was once known for its negative image of the criminal and malnutrition issues, but now the island of Lombok is already known for its positive image of the island having the second-best halal tourism in the world after Malaysia. There are several challenges faced by Indonesia in the future in order to increase its ranking to be the world's first rank. These challenges include any fear of incorporating halal labels by some industry actors in Indonesia. Second, the absence of regulations in the form of legislation. Third, HR is not prepared in the field of halal tourism
