JAKARTA - The Ministry of Transportation and the Riau Islands Provincial Government have agreed to open a tourist area at the Bintan Beach Resort (BBR) as a pilot project ahead of the opening of the gate for foreign tourists from several countries.
BBR as the manager of the Lagoi tourist area, the Regency was chosen because the area is really not directly affiliated with the community.
"Menhub Budi Karya Sumadi asked the Riau Islands Provincial Government to immediately prepare a pilot project before accepting foreign tourists," said Governor Ansar, quoted from Antara, Monday, October 11.
From the results of discussions with the Minister of Transportation, he said, several points of tourist routes that are planned to be opened are Batam and Tanjungpinang Airports, Nongsa, Bandar Bentan Telani, Tanjungpinang Port, Harborbay and Batam Center.
In addition, the Riau Islands Provincial Government also began to discuss the readiness with BBR regarding all the rules that must be prepared.
Such readiness is like a molecular rapid response (TCM) which only takes 1 hour to produce PCR swab test results and so on.
As for the development of the COVID-19 case in Singapore, according to the Governor, this has become the policy of the Central Government and will soon be discussed in a limited meeting.
"Hopefully tomorrow there will be a decision, which one can be opened and which one has not," said Governor Ansar.
