The Management of Modern Salt Business as a Community Economic Improvement on Remote Islands in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia

Abstract

The modern salt business is an alternative to the community's economic business in remote island areas. However, this business requires large investment capital which is impossible for local people to do, so it needs support from the government and the private sector. This study aims to obtain a model of management for the modern salt business by involving local communities. The results showed that there are three scenarios of modern salt industry management models with the involvement of local communities where the two models have gone through the review, evaluation and adaptation stages so it is expected that there will be perfection in its implementation. Meanwhile, one other model has never been implemented so requires initiation from the local government and the private sector to start piloting this scenario.
