Video: Exclusive, Athin Chairman, Cheriatna: Halal Tourism Has Become A World Trend
JAKARTA - Halal tourism has become a trend in the world because Muslims realize the importance of traveling. According to the General Chairman of the Indonesian Halal Travel Association (Athin) Cheriatna, traveling is not only for vacation and to relieve fatigue from daily routines, but also as a religious recommendation. Because of its large market share, many countries are seriously working on and marketing halal tourism packages. What differentiates halal tourism from non-halal tourism is that the provision of worship features and the food and drinks served during the tour must be halal.
