History of Tidung taken from the name of the place that exist in rural areas of East Kalimantan Malinau that is "Tana Tidung". Took the name tidung, because it's gives from the king of Tidung are expelled by the Dutch colonial. The name of the king is Pandita. After being expelled from the land, Pandita King of Tidung wandered up to Jepara. He moved to end up on an island that we know as Tidung Island. 

The Hundred communities of Tidung, no one who knows that the king Pandita was a king of East Kalimantan because during his layover in Tidung he never brings his title as a king.

 Definition of tourism

From 3 authors/theory :

1. The World Tourism Organization

Defines that Tourism is travel for recreation, leisure, religious, family or business purposes. Usually for a limited duration. Tourism is commonly associated with international travel but may also refer to travel to another place within the same country. The World Tourism Organization defines tourist as people ''traveling to and staying in places, outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business, and other purposes.

Tourism has become a popular global leisure activity. Tourism can be domestic or international, and international tourism has both incoming and outgoing implications of a country's balance of payments. Today Tourism is a major source of income for many countries, and affects the economy of both of the source and host countries, in some cases being of vital importance.

2. UNWTO 

UNWTO Defined it as indicated below :

"Tourism comprises the activities of persons traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one concecutive year for leisure, business, and other purposes."

3. Mathieson and wall (1982)

Mathieson and wall created a good working definition of tourism as "Temporary movement of people to destinations outside their normal places of work and residence. The activities undertaken during their stay in those destinations and the facilities created to cater to their needs."

Essential requirements for tourism :

• Time, as the hours for leisure increase so does the opportunity for travel changes in work days or hours. school calendars will affect how and when people can travel. the over alltravel pattern has moved from a two week vacation to 6-8 three or four day mini-vacations per year.
• Money, The majorityof travel requires discretionary income. Discretionary income is money left over after all monetary.
• Mobility, is the access to transportation (car, bus, plane, train or ship)
• Motivation, is the reason people travel. Motivations may include seeking novelty, education, meet new people, adventure or stress reduction.

CONCLUSION :

So, I can get the conclusion that definition of Tourism is:

"Tourism is a collection of activities, services and industries that delivers a travel experience, including transportation, accomodations, eating and drinking establishments, retail shops, entertainment business, activity facilities, and other hospitality services provided for individuals or groups traveling away from home. People are becoming more experienced in the traveling and careful in their choice of destination, leading them to search for new places and new tourism product."
