CULTURE purify LAWOK 
So much art and culture of West Lampung, if developed and managed properly will bring in local revenue, particularly in the tourism sector. As is known in West Lampung regency "Jejama Beguai Earth" has an area of 4950.40 km2 with a complex landscape characteristics and are seldom in other regions. in addition to a heterogeneous population with cultural traditions and art of great value, can also be used as potential tourism assets that can be developed. West Lampung also has a complete geo-morphology, such as mountains, seas, lakes, rivers, waterfalls and forests with diverse flora and fauna in it. All this is a gift of God Almighty we're grateful. Growing tourism industry is currently not only sell the potential wealth of natural attractions but also the values of local art and culture prevailing in the society. West Lampung memilki many traditions and cultural values of high value that grows and develops in this jejama beguai earth, can also be sold to advance the area of tourism, one of which is the tradition of our fishers, ie "Ngumbai Lawok".
tradition of ritual is performed by traditional fishermen in the Central Coast District conducted at fish auction place (TPI) Kuala Stabas, Village Market Krui. Lawok Nngumbai activities was conducted for approximately two days. This agenda is the agenda of the annual West Lampung District Government in this case the Department of Tourism and Culture of West Lampung who worked with fishermen residing in coastal areas. The event was also conducted in order to commemorate the Islamic New Year 1 Muharam. Potential ngumbai lawok can be used as a tourist attraction is the mainstay of our times and the future, especially if the package is packed with art and culture of West Lampung very diverse. Historically "Ngumbai Lawok" begins in the earliest times of Islam in Indonesia, especially in Bengkulu, where Krui at that time included areas before they become areas of Bengkulu Lampung Province, has implemented a buffalo sacrifice , head dihanyutkan into the sea, as a symbol we have to make sacrifices or take out for alms, with the intention that those who give alms rizkinya be multiplied by Allah SWT. Custom event called "ngumbai lawok" meaningful agreement or charity, as a reflection of our gratitude for the fishermen who have obtained acceptable results for a year.
At present, the activity was aimed as a forum to promote traditional culture in this coastal region with the hopes of attracting foreign tourists to the West Lampung district as a tourism destination in the province of Lampung . By performing the ritual ngumbaik lawok expected positive image will also arise in the tourism sector to support the West Lampung and Lampung Visit Year 2009 a success. Potential ngumbai lawok can become the mainstay of tourism object of the present and future, especially if mixed and packed with art and culture of diverse West Lampung, Lampung, West is also rich in tourism potential, but if not treated seriously will not contribute to the regional development of West Lampung.
In this Lawok ngumbai activities performed various traditional arts and cultural attractions in West Lampung. The other meaning contained in this lawok ngumbaik is expected to shower the fish catch of the fishermen are increasing rapidly and avoid a catastrophe in carrying out activities in the sea, which on the first day's activities will be carried out where the slaughter of buffalo meat will be distributed to the existing traditional fishermen around the location of activities, and on the second day of thanksgiving ceremony will be traditional cultural arts performances as well as the top event ngumbaik lawok. We are aware of many challenges we must face to sell the tourism potential of West Lampung as a tourist attraction that could improve the welfare of society, such arrangement has not been a tourist attraction, yet the maximum principal role has not been the development of world tourism and tourism investment climate in West Lampung. And most importantly, this activity can be a new atmosphere in the annual agenda LampungBarat Pemkab.
One key to success is to build the world to intensify tourism promotion through exhibitions, festivals, both at the regional, national and even international. tourism promotion activities affect demand or tergeraknya increasing interest of tourists to visit the tourist destination of West Lampung. Furthermore, the perpetrators hoped the tourism industry can play an active role in generating and building awareness, interest growth, realize the desire / passion and service improvement. If the four variables that can be developed simultaneously coherent and unified, then the world of tourism we will progress and develop. (Zan / BF / BJ Team / PR underlayer).
