BLOGGER INDONESIA PELAKU SOSIALISASI

Judul di atas terlalu lebar  kalau ingin membicarakan peran blogger Indonesia dalam sosialisasi potensi budaya dan wisata di kawasan ASEAN. Harusnya ditambahkan dengan sosialisasi budaya dan wisata di kawasan ASEAN.

Fungsi Blog

Fungsi blog bermacam-macam antara lain sebagai jurnal, pelengkap link,  scrapbook , atau bahkan discussion board. Isinya bermacam-macam dari blog umum contoh catatan harian, atau khusus seperti kesehatan, pendidikan, liputan, politik,sarana promosi, dan lain-lain.  Ada hal yang akhir-akhir ini menarik para blogger menulis perjalanannya pada blognya. Baik dalam blog yang bertema khusus atau campuran dengan tema lain.

Saya menemukan contoh blog wisata lumayan ciamik. Pengelolanya lumayan serius mengolah blognya. Dalam blog tersebut ada wisata alami, bahari, belanja, candi, situs, monumen dan museum, religi serta sejarah. Blog itu adalah http://banggawisatalokal.blogspot.com.  Tentu masih banyak blog baik  yang lain.

Atau blog yang bertema budaya yang dikelola oleh komunitas jelajah budaya. Budaya itu maknanya sangat luas seperti tarian, lagu, alat musik, aturan/kebiasaan suatu suku, cara bercocok tanam dan lain-lain. Contoh blog lain adalah http://indonesiacultural.blogspot.com.

Budaya menurut Prof. Dr. Koentjaraningrat adalah keseluruhan sistem gagasan, tindakan, dan hasil karya manusia dalam rangka kehidupan masyarakat yang dijadikan milik diri manusia dengan belajar.

Diskusi Budaya dan Wisata Indonesia

Tanggal 13 Oktober 2012, saya mengikuti acara diskusi budaya dan Wisata Indonesia di Pusat Pendidikan dan Pelatihan Departemen Luar Negeri Republik Indonesia di Jalan Sisingamaraja no 73 Jakarta. Acara ini    dipandu oleh Eka Situmorang dan di buka oleh Chichi Utami Lestari dan dilanjutkan sambutan Ketua ASEAN Blogger Community Iman Brotoseno berbicara tentang ASEAN Blogger Declaration, ASEAN Blogger Conference. Dubes Hazairin Pohan, kepala Pusdiklat Kementerian Luar Negeri berharap peran aktif ABC dalam perwujudan Komunitas Sosial Budaya ASEAN.

Dubes I Gusti Agung Wesaka Puja, Direktur Jenderal Kerja Sama Asean memaparkan sosialisasi peningkatan kerjasama ASEAN dengan mitra wicara, berisikan latar belakang pembentukan, perkembangan ASEAN,  komunitas  ASEAN, proritas keketuaan Indonesia, catatan kemajuan keketuaan Indonesia dan sebagainya.

Dubes Bagas Hapsoro, Sekjen ASEAN turut hadir dalam acara ini membahas tentang ASEAN Cooperation on Outreach Programme

Kesimpulan dari diskusi ini adalah betapa penting peran para Blogger khususnya Indonesia untuk mensosialisasikan wisata dan budaya di kawasan ASEAN.

Hal kecil yang bisa dilakukan adalah mengenalkan hasil karya para pengrajin kecil  tentu saja ini akan membantu perekonomian mereka. Biasanya kegiatan promosi  sulit mereka lakukan.
