Keywords Pangandaran, tourist destination, marine tourism, panoramic scenery, cultural heritage Indonesian people only know Pangandaran beach as a tourist destination.

Meeting, incentive, convention and convention MICE activities can be carried out in line with utilizing digital transformation to support the sustainability of the tourism sector and the regional creative economy, as well as growing regional economic growth in the province of West Java. Pangandaran Beach is approximately 91 km from Ciamis Regency, and 212 km from Bandung City. Pangandaran Beach is one of the mainstay tourist attractions in Pangandaran Regency, which since 2012 has been divorced and has been separated from Ciamis Regency. Pangandaran Beach, which has been found since 1918, has several advantages that make it worthy of the title as the best beach in Java. Pangandaran Beach also holds various kinds of cultural events, including the Sea Hajat which is held once a year Peggy, 2015. This sea wish is a form of gratitude for God's gift by releasing offerings to the high seas or also known as melarung. The Hajat Laut ceremony is held in the month of Muharram or the month of Suro, located on the East Coast of Pangandaran. Further, since the first this area has been visited by many fishermen from various regions, because of its location on the southern coast of the island of Java. The origin of the name Pangandaran comes from two words, namely Pangan and Daran. These two words represent the style of the Pangandaran area which is bustling with immigrants. Pangan means food, while Daran means food. The meaning of Pangandaran is a source of food for immigrants Ariefana, 2021. After a long time being part of the Ciamis Regency, a number of Pangandaran community leaders appeared to want to separate and form their own district. In 1992, a member of the Ciamis Regional People's Representative Council, who is also a Cijulang community leader named Abdul Gofur, received information about the planned expansion of the southern coast of West Java. Picture 2 Pangandaran Beach in 2018 Pangandaran Regency lies in the southern part of West Java, with an area of 168,509 hectares and the sea area is 67,340 hectares. With this area, Pangandaran Regency has a coastline of 91 kilometers. This district is bordered by a number of regions, namely Ciamis Regency in the north, Cilacap Regency in the east, Tasikmalaya Regency in the west and the Indian Ocean in the south. According to the 2019 population census, the population in Pangandaran Regency is around 409,840 people Ariefana, 2021. The population consists of the Sundanese, Javanese and some from other parts of Indonesia. One of the advantages of this district is the beautiful natural tourism panorama. This is related to its position on the southern sea coast with a coastline of 91 kilometers. Therefore, beach tourism is still the flagship of Pangandaran regency. But there are also other famous natural tourist spots, which are in the highlands. Pangandaran tourist destination has two sides of the beach, namely east and west. The West Coast has waves that are not so big with a wide expanse of sand stretching along the sides. Activities that can be done at this beach include swimming, taking a boat to Pasir Putih or going around the surrounding nature reserve, snorkeling, horse riding, getting around Pangandaran by renting a ride-hailing car or mini trail, surfing, basking in the sun, or enjoying the surrounding scenery while waiting and watch the sunset. The east coast is famous for its sunrise as well as a complete culinary scene. The tourists can also enjoy a variety of processed seafood with a variety of menus provided to order and the price is affordable. In addition, the routine of fishing communities looking for fish using fishing nets is also the main tourist attraction in terms of local wisdom. The tourists can buy fish directly from fishermen with the best quality that is still fresh. Various activities that can be done on the East Coast include watersports, fishing, traveling around the beach using a bicycle, tandem bike and mini trail, or just sitting around enjoying the panoramic atmosphere of the East Coast. For tourists who want to bring home souvenirs and souvenirs typical of Pangandaran for their families at home, at this location there is also a shopping center that sells a variety of craft knick-knacks, beach clothes and souvenirs from Pangandaran specialties such as Jambal Roti and salted fish. The landscape of West Java holds a number of natural panorama potentials, including tourism. Especially for the southern region, Pangandaran is one of the icons as well as West Java's most popular destination. In recent times, a number of improvement efforts related to the development and improvisation of infrastructure facilities to and around destinations have been continuously carried out. The hope is that this step can raise Pangandaran's class into a world-class tourist destination. Furthermore, the Regent of Pangandaran, Jeje Wiradinata stated 'My dream is to make Pangandaran a world tourist destination' Pambudi, 2018. Since decades ago, Pangandaran has been known as one of the most popular tourist destinations. This is inseparable from a number of unique features, such as the fishing industry, tourism and the creative economy. Thus, the development of tourism potential needs to be carried out continuously. However, there are a number of issues that pose challenges. On the one hand, Pangandaran is quite far from a number of Indonesia’s major cities, such as Bandung, Jakarta or Semarang, as the origin of tourists. For land routes, it takes about 6 hours to 8 hours from Bandung, or 8 hours to 10 hours from Jakarta. The next issue relates to the condition of the local community. There are still certain groups who carry out activities or behave that are contrary to the principles of tourism. The existence of street vendors on the beach makes the area tend to be slums. Then, there are also people who take advantage of the situation, for example by increasing the selling price of a product during the peak period of tourist visits. Things like that can make tourists uncomfortable, even reluctant to return to Pangandaran. Pangandaran Beach is one of the tourist destinations in West Java which is still the prima donna for beach fans. This beach tour will certainly be more-lively with the arrangement that is now being carried out by the local government with direct support from the Governor of West Java Ridwan Kamil. In fact, in the future Pangandaran is projected to become a Special Economic Zone/SEZ Tiana, 2018. In addition, other attractions are needed in the form of activities or attractions that are of interest to tourists. The amphitheater is one of the alternative means to meet these needs. Another attraction is also prepared by involving a number of parties. One of them is the Pangandaran Integrated Aquarium and Marine Research Institute Piamari, as part of a central government program through the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. According to some scholars. Pangandaran tourism should prepare tourist objects that are more Instagram-able, more attractive facilities with human resources who are ready to help and serve tourists with good service quality but also continue to protect against the threat of transmission of the COVID-19 virus Yusuf & Veranita, 2021, p. 158.

It is done by a city to attract investors, tourists, and community who live in the city to invest Kotler, et al. 1999 so it can raise the city income to develop way better. A transition of consumer attraction to a product is no longer through the form of marketing like printed media or TV show Willmott & Nelson, 2003, but more to seek a memorable experience so the product that has more attraction is more personal, which means more demanding Schmitt, 1999; Tynan & McKechnie, 2009.

Such perspective is seen from the aspect of brand equity owned by Pangandaran so in overall, it can be seen how city branding in Pangandaran is realized. Theoretically, brand equity is a multidimensional construct formed either from the influence of brand image or an attitude toward a brand Gomez et al. 2018. These two constructs become the key subjects that need to be observed to see their influence on Pangandaran as a tourist destination. In a research conducted by Gomez et al. 2018; Keller 1993; Faircloth et al. 2001, they see a relationship between attitude toward brand with brand equity existed, not significantly though, has a relationship directly. However, in tourism sector in their previous research, Gomez et al. 2018; Chang & Liu 2009; Gil-Saura et al. 2013; Barreda 2014; Koneenik & Gartner 2007 and Boo et al. 2009 state that brand image has an influence on brand equity in tourism sector. It also has an influence if it is reviewed from the influence between brand equity and brand preference Cobb-Walgran et al., 1995; Chang & Liu, 2009. As a popular tourist area in West Java, Pangandaran should keep doing development from various aspects so it forms city branding that is in a line with what is expected by both domestic and foreign tourists. It can be seen from a review done in the brand equity through attitude toward a brand both brand image and brand preference by the tourists in Pangandaran. 2. THEORETICAL REVIEW City Branding Literature in marketing is getting wider, not only discussing how to market a brand but also how to market a location or place. Trueman et al. 2001 explain that conducting an analysis to a city as a brand has become a need by considering various stakeholders involved in the city. However, it often becomes a question for some researches how could a city be treated as a brand?' Kavaratzis, 2004. Hankinson & Cowking 1993 answer that a brand is a product or service differentiator related to its positioning so the product or service will show their unique based on their function attribute and symbol values. This explanation answers the question how a city becomes a brand Ashworth & Voogd 1990, 1994 and Kotler et al., 1999 add that the explanation about a brand has a relationship with the aim of city management and marketing to identify the image of the city. Kavaratzis 2004 states that in the world of marketing, city branding creates a significant change in marketing perspective. Besides, city branding is comprehended to achieve a competitive advantage so it can increase the number of investment and tourists. The growing trend to increase the competitive advantage in a tourist destination is started since the 1990s when the globalization era started happening Berg et al. 1990; Kavaratzis & Ashworth, 2006; Kotler et al. 1999. A tighter competition would give a self-attraction for academics and politicians to develop their tourist destination and the city branding Page et al., 2015. There are several analyses from researchers who identify some types of city branding, like innovation and creative cities Marceau, 2008. Besides, there is a researcher who states that there is a relevant relationship between brand equity and credibility as well as attitude and brand or brand image Middleton, 2011. Sahin & Baloglu 2014 elaborate that in the global market, the competition between cities as a tourist destination has started to focus in unique attitude and brand image, memorable experiences, and branding development through word of mouth. Brand Equity Review of Integrative Business and Economics Research, Vol. 8, Supplementary Issue 4 137 Copyright  2019 GMP Press and Printing ISSN 2304-1013 Online; 2304-1269 CDROM; 2414-6722 Print In marketing, brand equity has been studied in some lately works that refer to city branding Jacobsen, 2012; Kladou & Kehagias, 2014; Lucarelli, 2012; Zenker & Beckmann, 2013; Zenker, 2011. There are some definitions of brand equity, such as what is said by Aaker 1991, 1996 who defines brand equity as a group of asset and the obligation related to brand, name, and its symbol that add or reduce values to a particular product or service. Yoo, Donthu, and Lee 2000 define brand equity as a selection between a product with or without brand and the same featured assumption. Keller 1993 divides brand equity into two categories financial perspective Hakala, Svensson, & Vincze, 2012 and consumer perspective Sartori, Mottironi, & Corigliano, 2012. A useful measurement to evaluate city branding is by using quantitative and qualitative components. Especially, they do an empirical application in some cities in Germany. Jacobson 2012 also focuses on some cities in Germany, learning two key components attribute and benefit. Lucarelli 2012 proposes a scenario of three dimensions to study brand city equity, namely element, size, and impact from city branding. Brand equity has been studied a lot as literature related to city branding Jacobsen, 2012; Kladou & Kehagis, 2014; Lucarelli, 2012; Zenker & Beckmann, 2013; Zenker, 2011. Brand equity measurement in Gomez et al. 2018 uses three key dimensions, namely brand awareness, brand loyalty, and perceived quality. Besides, brand image could be one of the measurements of brand equity. Brand awareness reflects consumer capacity in differentiating one brand to another Barreda, 2014; Gil-Saura et al., 2013; Sartori et al., 2012. Brand loyalty is consumer commitment to re-purchase or recommend a product or service used by other consumers Gomez et al., 2018. Perceived quality is a consumer assessment for a brand Zeithaml, 1988. In this research, there are three aspects to be observed, starting from attitude to brand, brand image. In the previous research, attitude toward brand is an evaluation given by consumers toward a product or brand by illustrating negatively or positively Hughes & Allen, 2008; Kotler & Armstrong, 1996. Keller 1993 indicates that consumers will dispose of a higher price to a brand when attitude toward brand is high. Besides, brand image is a consumer illustration of a product or service offered Biel, 1992. A strong brand image would give a positive impact on brand equity Boo et al. 2009. 3. RESEARCH METHOD The focus of this research is attitude toward the brand, brand image, brand equity, and city branding to Pangandaran tourists. The population of this research is the tourists who visit tourist destinations in Pangandaran Regency until September 2017 which is 2,120,272 people. The sample collected in this research is 293 respondents. The data analysis in this research uses Structural Equation Model SEM through SmarPLS version software. 4. RESULT AND DISCUSSION PLS analysis technique is conducted to test the variable of city branding, attitude toward the brand, brand image, and brand equity. In the first step of the data analysis, there will be outer model consisting of validity test convergent validity and discriminant validity and reliability construct. Outer model is a model that specifies a relationship between latent variables and indicators or it can be said that outer model defines how each indicator is related to its latent variables.

The next step in PLS is conducting structural model inner model. In this step, there will be a relationship between constructs including R-square value, goodness evaluation of fit by seeing Q2 predictive relevance, and hypothesis test. First, the structural model sees R-square value to discover how big independent variables influence their dependent variables.

It is shown from the positive coefficient value at the amount of tcount > ttable < Attitude has a significant influence directly toward brand preference. It shows that Pangandaran as a tourist destination is a pleasant place. It is seen from a descriptive elaboration which states that tourists feel Pangandaran is a pleasant place and able to meet the needs of the tourists. Even though as a tourist destination that is in a line with its identity still lacks compared to other statements. This hypothesis result shows that given the tourists evaluate Pangandaran positively as a tourist destination, it implies a self-perspective to Pangandaran as a pleasant tourist destination. However, the result is not relevant to the previous research which states that attitude toward brand does not have a direct influence Gomez et. al., 2018; Keller, 1993; Faircloth et al., 2001. In Keller’s research 1993, it is stated that attitude toward brand indeed is not directly related but it is a part of brand image. In contrast to what Keller 2001 says, the result of this research gives a new perspective that attitude toward brand is especially in Pangandaran as a tourist destination. Pangandaran has been popular with the main tourist destination; that is the beach. It makes domestic tourists mainly prefer Pangandaran as one of the regions to go on holiday in terms of the beach. An adhesiveness to what is memorized by a consumer to an object is a self-illustration toward a product or service. It is seen from the influence of brand equity toward brand which is in a line with the previous research Cobb-Walgran et al., 1995; Chang & Liu, 2009. Brand equity toward brand shows when the tourists of Pangandaran would go to the beach in West Java, they would say Pangandaran as the destination. Moreover, lots of tourists who in fact have been attracted to go to Pangandaran due to its features and facilities. Brand equity can be built not only due to a popular tourist destination but also supported by sufficient infrastructures. It makes Pangandaran the best tourist destination. In contrary to the previous explanation which states that the aspects in brand equity have influence toward brand. In the last hypothesis, it is found out that brand image does not directly have an influence toward brand which is not in a line with the previous research Gomez et al., 2018; Biel, 1992; Chang & Liu, 2009; Gil-Saura et al., 2013; Barreda, 2014; Koneenik & Gartner, 2007, and Boo et al., 2009. The tourists who visit Pangandaran have Review of Integrative Business and Economics Research, Vol. 8, Supplementary Issue 4 141 Copyright  2019 GMP Press and Printing ISSN 2304-1013 Online; 2304-1269 CDROM; 2414-6722 Print seen Pangandaran as a pleasant place to go for a tour. However, it does not mean Pangandaran is a tourist city for the tourists. Although Pangandaran has variously attractive tourist destinations, it does not make Pangandaran a tourist city. An indication of this disagreement could be because the tour offered does not spread to regional potentials. For instance, it should not only focus on the beach destination but also to regional potentials so there is a self-attractiveness to visit Pangandaran besides the sea. The formation of city branding of Pangandaran is finally done because the tourist destinations in Pangandaran have been recognized. It makes tourists feel that as a consumer in West Java and surrounded would choose Pangandaran when they want to go to the sea area. It has existed in the consumer mind as the main tourist destination in West Java. Besides, the tourists of Pangandaran also assess Pangandaran as a pleasant tourist destination even though no one considers Pangandaran as a tourist city. It should be one of the aspects improved by the government and the stakeholders to build city branding that Pangandara is a tourist city. 5. CONCLUSION The sample of this research is 293 people. The data analysis technique used is the SEM method with the PLS approach. The result of this research shows that attitude has a significant influence directly toward brand preference. The hypothesis results do not relevant to the previous research which mentions that attitude does not have a direct influence Gomez et. al., 2018; Keller, 1993; Faircloth et al., 2001. Meanwhile, Keller 1993 says that attitude toward brand indeed is not related directly but it is a part of brand image. Brand equity has a significant influence directly toward brand preference which is in a line with the previous research Cobb-Walgran et al., 1995; Chang & Liu, 2009. It is seen when the tourists of Pangandaran who would go on holiday to the beach in West Java would mention Pangandaran as their destination. Brand image does not a significant influence directly to brand preference. Some tourists who have visited Pangandaran consider it as a pleasant place for a tour but it does not mean Pangandaran is a tourist city. REFERENCES [1] Aaker, 1991. Managing brand equity New York.

ZeithamlEvidence from past research and insights from an exploratory investigation are combined in a conceptual model that defines and relates price, perceived quality, and perceived value. Propositions about the concepts and their relationships are presented, then supported with evidence from the literature. Discussion centers on directions for research and implications for managing price, quality, and Lane KellerThe author presents a conceptual model of brand equity from the perspective of the individual consumer. Customer-based brand equity is defined as the differential effect of brand knowledge on consumer response to the marketing of the brand. A brand is said to have positive negative customer-based brand equity when consumers react more less favorably to an element of the marketing mix for the brand than they do to the same marketing mix element when it is attributed to a fictitiously named or unnamed version of the product or service. Brand knowledge is conceptualized according to an associative network memory model in terms of two components, brand awareness and brand image a set of brand associations. Customer-based brand equity occurs when the consumer is familiar with the brand and holds some favorable, strong, and unique brand associations in memory. Issues in building, measuring, and managing customer-based brand equity are discussed, as well as areas for future purpose of this study is to analyze the application of city branding in five European capitals – London, Paris, Berlin, Rome, and Madrid – using a measurement model to link brand equity to its antecedents and consequences. The measurement model and structural model are estimated through partial least squares. An index, designated the City Branding Index CBI, is developed to quantify and compare the brand equity of the five European capitals selected. The findings show that the brand equity of the European capitals consists of the awareness and perceived quality of a city as a destination and the influence of attitude on the brand and brand image. The CBI reveals the existence of gaps among the five capitals in the four dimensions that compose brand equity. Because city branding is a useful tool for the capitals to gain competitive advantages, the results could allow city managing bodies and firms from the sector to evaluate each city's competitive position with regard to its competitors and to design strategies for each European Malhotra John HallM.
