Bearing the Latin name Varanus komodoensis and local name “Ora”, giant lizards, according to a story first published in 1912 in a national daily the Dutch East Indies.Peter A. Ouwens, director of the Zoological Museum in Bogor is one who has introduced his paper dragons to the world through it. Since then, expeditions and research on endangered species continue to be done, even reportedly inspired the film had Zone Symbian soft updates in 1933.

Despite the fact that the majority of the population Lombok West Nusa Tenggara Islam, but the indigenous population of Lombok, Sasak people, many who embrace traditional beliefs of Islam Wetu Telu, syncretism between Islamic teaching and beliefs of local Sasak tribe. This belief is not allocated to the strong influence of ancient Javanese and Balinese Hindu in Sasak. Since the 14th century Majapahit Kingdom led by Gadjah Mada University mengusai Patih Sasak. Only in the 17th century, Islam was introduced to Sunan Giri and Bugis Muslims, who comes to Lombok. Long ago, around the 18th century, the wars that erupted in the Kingdom of Klungkung Bali resulted in mass migration of people of Bali to Lombok. I do not care Sasak culture is the culture of nearby Java and Bali.

Muslims Wetu Telu only run as much as 3 days of fasting during Ramadan, which is the first day, the middle of Ramadan, and the final days before Idul Fitri.

It is interesting that the people who live in Temple Sasak Lingsar lived in harmony with Balinese Hindus. However, the different tribes and religions are as likely to live in harmony.

Pura Lingsar ancient temple built by Anak Agung Ngurah Karangasem Kingdom in about 1759. The temple complex there are four main building, in particular Pura Gaduh, Kemaliq, pesiraman and pesimpangan Bhatara good Balian and Lingsar Wulon. Despite the fact that the temple was built by Balinese Hindus, but there clearly is a place blessed Kemaliq Sasak society faiths Wetu Telu. That said, Kemaliq built as a symbol of unity between the Hindu Balinese and the Sasak tribe. In fact, every year the Full Moon sasih Kanem yellow moon, which falls around December, Hindu Balinese and the Sasak people make Topat war tradition, Throwing-pitch diamond in the form of brotherhood.

Pura Lingsar every day and is often used Sasak people to pray and make offerings of food variety. Its development, this place is not only a place of worship of Hindus in Bali and Sasak tribes, but also of other faiths who want to Beg, and blessed the “Connect” world. Be Kemaliq sign of internal religious tolerance, regardless of tribe and race. A lesson in the nature of religious life that deserve to be as devotional material.

Indonesia Perluas Pasar Wisata

Pemerintah Indonesia bertekad memperluas pasar wisata ke negara-negara ASEAN yang selama ini belum tergarap optimal di antaranya Thailand, Vietnam, dan Filipina. "Tahun ini kami mulai memperluas negara fokus pasar ke Thailand, Vietnam, dan Filipina," kata Deputi Direktur Wilayah ASEAN Kementerian Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata (Kemenbudpar), Chrismiastutie, di Jakarta, Selasa (22/2/2011).

Ia mengatakan, tiga negara tersebut dinilai potensial untuk menjadi negara fokus pasar wisata utama di ASEAN setelah Singapura dan Malaysia.

Khusus untuk Filipina, Chrismiastutie bahkan berani memasang target jumlah kunjungan wismannya akan mencapai 210.000 orang. "Kami sudah beberapa kali melakukan promosi wisata di Filipina tahun lalu, jadi kami optimistis jumlah wisman dari negara itu tahun ini bisa mencapai 210.000 orang," katanya.

Sementara untuk Thailand dan Vietnam belum dapat dipatok target dalam jumlah yang besar. "Masyarakat di Thailand khususnya memiliki tipikal yang amat berbeda yakni tidak terlampau suka bepergian," katanya.

Namun, Chrismiastutie yakin, pihaknya mampu menjaring wisman dari dua negara tersebut untuk melancong ke Indonesia. Untuk itu, pihaknya menerapkan 4 strategi pemasaran yakni berpartisipasi di bursa pariwisata, sales mission, pendukungan festival Indonesia dan mengoptimalkan Visit Indonesia Tourism Office (VITO).

Tahun ini, Kemenbudpar mengagendakan 75 kegiatan promosi di luar negeri di mana 17 kegiatan di ASEAN (18 di Asia, 15 di Amerika Serikat dan Pasifik, 13 di Eropa, dan 12 di Timur Tengah). "Pasar ASEAN ini sangat potensial apalagi sudah ada kesepakatan antara Menteri-Menteri Pariwisata di ASEAN tentang ASEAN for ASEAN. Kalau ini diimplementasikan pasti akan bagus sekali dampaknya untuk sektor pariwisata kita," katanya.
