Partnering with the Indonesian Consulate General in Shanghai and the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce in China (INACHAM), the Tourism Ministry will host the Indonesia Festival (Inafest) 2017 to celebrate Indonesia Week from May 20 to 26 in Shanghai.
Located at the Oriental Pearl Tower, the event will focus on promoting trade, tourism and investment with activities including an Indonesian products exhibition and art and culture performances.
“We’re going to promote batik by exhibiting Indonesian designers' works at the Yuz Museum,” said the ministry's Asia Pacific promotion deputy assistant, Vinsensius Jemadu.
“This event also aims to promote Indonesian movies by bringing together people from the industry to talk about the possibility of film collaboration, as well as promoting Indonesia for shooting locations,” he added.
The festival will also host a photo exhibition of 10 tourist destinations in Indonesia and a week-long culinary festival.
According to the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), Chinese tourists accounted for the most tourist arrivals in Indonesia between January and November last year followed by Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Japan and Korea.
“Our projection for 2019 is to have 20 million foreign tourists coming to Indonesia with half of them, 10 million, from China,” said Tourism Minister Arief Yahya. (kes)
