Abstract

This study examines the role of Strategic Intelligence (SI) in securing the Mandalika MotoGP, a Super Priority Tourism Destination in Indonesia. Adopting a non-systematic literature review, the research analyses the transition to Intelligence-Led Policing (ILP) and collaborative risk management. Findings reveal that SI serves as the core of the security architecture, integrating physical "Ring Systems," cyber defence, and "Penta-helix" stakeholder synergy. The study highlights the importance of predictive threat modelling for terrorism, cyber-attacks, and socio-agrarian conflicts. It concludes that SI enables a "soft" security model, where foresight and community participation mitigate risks while preserving the destination's branding and visitor experience.
