Tri Hita Karana in the Spatial Planning of Bali Province in National and Regional Regulations as an Environmental Conservation Effort
Abstract:
The Provincial Government of Bali is committed to applying the Tri Hita Karana concept in every spatial development of Bali province, including residential, hospitality, and agriculture. The Balinese believe that the Tri Hita Karana concept guides them. They will form an urban spatial structure that is far from damaged and sustainable. Therefore, it is necessary to harmonize national and regional regulations to implement the Tri Hita Karana concept into the urban spatial development process in the province of Bali. This article will assess whether the concept of Tri Hita Karana has been accommodated in the spatial planning of Bali province. As well as the challenges in applying the concept of Tri Hita in this modern era. This research uses a qualitative descriptive analysis and normative juridical method. The collected legal materials were analyzed using a qualitative method by describing legal principles, views of legal experts, and normative provisions regarding spatial planning of cities/regions in realizing the spatial planning of Bali with the Tri Hita Karana perspective. This study concludes that the concept of Tri Hita Karana has been accommodated in the spatial planning of Bali province. The evolving manifestation of Tri Hita Karana within the Hindu residential communities of Denpasar, hospitality, and agriculture encompasses the aspects of palemahan, pawongan, and parahyangan. Initially, in the reals of palemahan, there was a transformation from agricultural to non-agricultural land use. This shift primarily serves the purpose of establishing residential zones, constructing housing developments by real estate developers, and facilitating commercial activities.
