Private Sector Contribution in Water and Sanitation. PERCIK. Indonesia Water ...Oswar Mungkasa
The document discusses the challenges Indonesia faces in achieving Millennium Development Goals for water supply and sanitation by 2015, as over 50% of Indonesians in rural areas still lack basic sanitation facilities and access to clean water, while the government admits it does not have enough budget for development. It argues that private sector contribution is needed and corporate social responsibility should include fairness to stakeholders, acting as an agent of change for community empowerment, and efficient solutions focused on stakeholders in areas of operation. The private sector could launch community development programs, provide micro-financing for sanitation, or participate in building water supply infrastructure.

The researchers interviewed villagers to understand their motivations for participating in community-based tourism, expectations, and perspectives on village needs and sustainability. Key findings included villagers' desire to share their culture and language with visitors, needs for improved water access, waste management, and community leadership. The research provided insights into building a sustainable home stay program that benefits the community.

Longwood also earns revenue from admissions, events, restaurants and gifts shops, and receives capital funding from a separate foundation. It aims to strengthen these revenue streams and continue offering excellent gardens, horticulture, education and arts programs.
