Given the plethora of art-crafts in North Sumatra, like batik, ulos, ikat, padung-padung, wood craft, metal craft, and ancient megaliths, it becomes imperative to introduce an enhanced infrastructure in the region. Art-craft is sustained by the following factors: tourism, the creative industry, supply of raw materials, and exportation. Consequently, the linkage between infrastructure and art-craft development in North Sumatra is reviewed in terms of the above factors. Though infrastructure development plays a crucial role in sourcing raw materials, production, marketing, and sale of art-craft items; the existing infrastructure in North Sumatra is below the global standard, which adversely implicate on the art-craft industry in the region. More so, the tourism industry which contributes to art-craft development and foreign exchange earnings in Indonesia is adversely affected by poor infrastructure in North Sumatra. As a result of that, it becomes imperative to introduce an enhanced and effective infrastructure in North Sumatra. In light of the foregoing and with the aid of pictures and data, some of the art-craft items and importance of tourism in North Sumatra are highlighted in the research. This paper observes that though the government has embarked on infrastructure development in Indonesia, lack of funds, corruption, inadequate public private partnership, challenges in land acquisition, among others, impede these infrastructure development projects. The paper argues that consequent upon the importance of infrastructure in the art-craft industry, government should, through laws, policies, and programmes, inter alia, provide adequate funds, encourage the use of public private partnership, prosecute corrupt government officials, and oversee the execution of existing infrastructure development projects in the region. Besides, the art-craft industry should play a contributory role in the enhancement of infrastructure in North Sumatra. The introduction and implementation of these measures will culminate in the entrenchment of an effective and efficient infrastructure which will largely enhance art-craft production in North Sumatra and its attendant effect on the tourism sector in Indonesia.
Abstract
Given the plethora of art-crafts in North Sumatra, like batik, ulos, ikat, padung-padung, wood craft, metal craft, and ancient megaliths, it becomes imperative to introduce an enhanced infrastructure in the region. Art-craft is sustained by the following factors: tourism, the creative industry, supply of raw materials, and exportation. Consequently, the linkage between infrastructure and art-craft development in North Sumatra is reviewed in terms of the above factors. Though infrastructure development plays a crucial role in sourcing raw materials, production, marketing, and sale of art-craft items; the existing infrastructure in North Sumatra is below the global standard, which adversely implicate on the art-craft industry in the region. More so, the tourism industry which contributes to art-craft development and foreign exchange earnings in Indonesia is adversely affected by poor infrastructure in North Sumatra. As a result of that, it becomes imperative to introduce an enhanced and effective infrastructure in North Sumatra. In light of the foregoing and with the aid of pictures and data, some of the art-craft items and importance of tourism in North Sumatra are highlighted in the research. This paper observes that though the government has embarked on infrastructure development in Indonesia, lack of funds, corruption, inadequate public private partnership, challenges in land acquisition, among others, impede these infrastructure development projects. The paper argues that consequent upon the importance of infrastructure in the art-craft industry, government should, through laws, policies, and programmes, inter alia, provide adequate funds, encourage the use of public private partnership, prosecute corrupt government officials, and oversee the execution of existing infrastructure development projects in the region. Besides, the art-craft industry should play a contributory role in the enhancement of infrastructure in North Sumatra. The introduction and implementation of these measures will culminate in the entrenchment of an effective and efficient infrastructure which will largely enhance art-craft production in North Sumatra and its attendant effect on the tourism sector in Indonesia.
