Behind the beauty of the Cianjur floating village, there is poor local governance and a lack of public awareness to maintain cleanliness. In addition, we will see a very high social gap between people who live in cities and those who live in floating villages.
A very high crime rate often occurs in this floating village, it is not uncommon for fishermen to experience the theft of up to 9 tons of fish feed.
Therefore I want to turn it into a tourist destination to revive the economy and help increase the public's awareness of the importance of sustainable tourism.
