Banyuwangi as "the sunrise of java" has a superior tourism object compared to the name "diamond triangle consisting of Mount Ijen, Sukamade Beach and Plengkung Beach. These tourism objects have extraordinary natural beauty and are visited by many domestic and foreign tourists.
The superiority of Banyuwangi tourism objects has also gained recognition or world-class appreciation for its tourist objects, namely the UN -UNWTO awards defeated other world attractions.
Talking about diamond triangle / triangle in Banyuwangi, I was reminded of the service triangle concept, where this concept reviews how producers can provide optimal service to their customers by also serving their internal customers, so that internal customers will provide optimal services to external customers.
In the context of Banyuwangi the producer or management is the Banyuwangi regional government, internal customers are Banyuwangi people and their customers are domestic and foreign tourists.
