The Penta Helix multistakeholder synergy not only fosters innovation, regional development, and tourism but also encourages local community participation in the CBT program, although it has not reached optimal levels. However, existing Penta Helix roles are narrowly focused on individual tasks, lacking a cohesive and comprehensive approach to synergy, diminishing the effectiveness of proposed plans. The study observed persistently low local community participation in the CBT program, attributed to a lack of collective awareness, skills, and knowledge. Moreover, beyond the Penta Helix model, there is a notable absence of models addressing human resources related to the local community, local tourism destination development, and local tourism regulation. This absence perpetuates social injustice by unevenly distributing economic benefits, neglecting those less or highly associated with tourism. The insights derived from this qualitative research offer both academic and practical contributions, yielding diverse consequences for the Penta Helix, other relevant authorities, and the local community. 2024 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/98737/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/98737/1/98737.pdf text en public phd doctoral Universiti Teknologi MARA (Kampus Puncak Alam) Faculty of Hotel and Tourism Management Mohd Hanfiah, Mohd Hafiz
