JAKARTA - Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno believes that 2.3 million jobs will be created because of the special economic zone (KEK).

To make this happen, the government has offered USD 6-8 billion of investment to America from the program.

"We hope that apart from the eight SEZs, there are 12 sustainable tourism projects that we offer and 21 investors who are here will get a choice," said Sandiaga Uno in a written statement, Saturday, November 19.

In the global tourism forum event in Jimbaran, Bali on Thursday, November 17, 2022, Sandiaga believes the program can increase millions of jobs in Indonesia every year.

"I am very confident that this global tourism forum will create a breakthrough, so that the target of creating 1.1 million jobs this year and 4.4 jobs in 2024 can be achieved," said Sandiaga Uno.

Furthermore, Sandiaga Uno believes that the G20 Summit will be a breakthrough to launch the program. Investment in Indonesia is also believed to increase.

"This is all covered by the Global Tourism Forum, and a message from the President that we stop the war, we stop violence with humanitarian reasons for our rise and also this food and energy issue which is one of the main keys we can present," said Sandiaga Uno.
