Thesis Statement
It is a sad fact that
can not
be controlled
, because
the attraction of the authenticity of a culture is so tempting for
tourists
. Even though it will be commercialized and staged in the future, but in my view this act can help
and
contribute more to the local people. For an example, their economy. Local people will helped by the income they receive from the
tourist
. This will help that area to be developed even more so it will be a better
tourist
spot
and
will receive more income. For the
tourist
, this kind of experience is one of a kind, I believe most of the
tourists
will spend money on cultural
tourist
spot
eventhough
they know it is staged. They have arrived in the area, in the place they have never been before. I believe they want to experience this
When it comes to authentic experiences, there are some rules that follow. For an example, if we really want to experience the funeral tradition in Bali, for women, they could not join if they are in their menstruation period. Or another example, if we
want
to join the Toraja funeral tradition, we have to have family blood connection with the corpse. We have this limited access to the authentic experiences, that is why I think it not so bad to provide
tourists
about the staged culture. As long as they know the cultural background or context and more focus on that instead of direct participation, I think it is enough for the
tourists
.
