JAKARTA - The Hong Kong method of 'piracy' tourists by offering 500,000 free tickets is highlighted by the Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Uno.
For Sandi, this Hong Kong move was a revolutionary thing.
"This is something Hong Kong may have been very revolutionary about, and they can do that because they have sufficient financial capacity," Sandi said after attending the Coordination Meeting of the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime Affairs and Investment in Jakarta, Antara, Wednesday, February 8.
Sandi also sees it as an opportunity to increase flights from Hong Kong to several destinations in Indonesia. One of them is to travel in Bali or other super priority destinations (DSP) in the country.
The former Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta also warned not to have a bad impact on domestic tourism.
"Don't let more Indonesians travel to Hong Kong than tourists from Hong Kong to travel to Indonesia. So we must quickly take the opportunity," he concluded.
Previously, it was reported that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) prepared 500,000 free plane tickets in the context of the Hello Hong Kong campaign to attract tourists, business travelers, and investors from various countries.
Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive John Lee, at the launch of the Hello Hong Kong campaign last Thursday said guests visiting Hong Kong could take advantage of a series of special offerings, vouchers, and other incentives to make their experience of visiting Hong Kong more fantastic and memorable.
