PRAYA- Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno hopes that the local government will promote homestay programs in all tourist villages in an effort to support the World Superbike and MotoGP events at the Pertamina Mandalika Circuit Lombok.
"The standard must be increased, we hold training so that more people participate in the homestay program. Because this will be felt directly by the community," said Sandiaga Uno, when he visited Bonjeruk Tourism Village, Central Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara in a series of 50 ADWI 2021 in Praya quoted by Antara, Wednesday, November 3.
For this reason, the government will prepare training and assistance as well as increase the capacity of human resources (HR) in the Tourism Village in Central Lombok, in order to maximize the potential of tourism and the creative economy.
"Especially in order to provide the best service for tourists," he said.
Sandiaga said, the people of Central Lombok or NTB in general should be able to maximize their potential to capture opportunities from tourist arrivals to West Nusa Tenggara. One of them is through holding major events such as World Superbike 2021 and MotoGP in 2022.
"We will see there is MotoGP and this year there is World Superbike, people (tourists) definitely need the best service," he said.
One of them, said Sandiaga, how in the future the community can manage homestays according to service standards and facilities must be improved in order to provide a quality and sustainable tourist experience.
"ADWI 2021 is one of the main programs run by the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy and is expected to be able to realize Indonesia's vision as a world-class tourism destination, competitive, sustainable and able to encourage regional development and community welfare," he said.
Therefore, assistance will continue to be carried out in all tourist villages in the country, so that the tourist villages of pioneering tourism villages become developed, advanced, and independent.
"We will also involve various universities to conduct studies, because each tourist village also has different needs," he said.
