BATAM - Tourists from Singapore who came to Batam in the travel bubble scheme (travel bubble) Jason Tay admitted that he missed enjoying Indonesian cuisine.

"Nasi Padang, my favorite kikil," said Jason Tay upon arrival at the Nongsa Pura Batam Ferry Terminal, quoted by Antara, Wednesday, February 23.

Jason, who chatted for a while with the Head of the Riau Islands Tourism Office, Buralimar, and the Head of Batam Culture and Tourism Office, Ardiwinata, seemed happy to be back on vacation in Batam.

Jason Tay came with 25 other Singaporean travelers to travel in Batam's Nongsa Sensation Area, after about two years the borders between countries were closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Riau Islands Governor Ansar Ahmad welcomed the first arrival of tourists from Singapore at the Nongsa Pura Ferry Terminal.

Ansar hopes that the visit of foreign tourists will be able to restore the enthusiasm of the tourism sector.

While in Nongsa Sensation, travelers can enjoy the beauty of the resort and play golf at a number of resorts there.
