Celebration Of RI's 79th Anniversary At IKN Makes Hotel Occupancy In Balikpapan Rise
Property consultant Colliers Indonesia estimates that hotel occupancy or room occupancy rate (TPK) in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, will increase with the celebration of the Independence Day of the Republic of Indonesia at IKN.
"Of course, if all of them are deployed to come there, the hotel occupancy rate in Balikpapan will be high," said Head of Research Colliers Indonesia Ferry Salanto as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, July 3.
According to Ferry, this is because not only ASN and government officials will attend the IKN Independence Anniversary ceremony, but also attended by VIP guests and invitees from the embassy of friendly countries who will be invited there to see the development of IKN development.
"This will increase the occupancy rate of hotels in Balikpapan," he said.
