Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno encouraged the students to become future leaders to develop tourism potential in Bondowoso Regency, East Java.
Sandiaga said Bondowoso has extraordinary tourism potential because almost part of its area is surrounded by mountains.
"This year, Inspector General is registered with the Unesco Global Geopark (UGG), we are waiting for the announcement in March 2023. We hope that after being determined by UGG it will increase the number of tourists," he said in a press release, Monday, January 16.
Then, there is also Tirta Agung Tourism Village which is included in ADWI's 50 Larges in 2022. Next, there is Batu Soon Bondowoso in Solor to flyover Mini.
"Not only tourism, Bondowoso also has extraordinary delicious coffee commodities, and there are several fashion and culinary products that can be superior," said Sandiaga.
The large number of tourism potentials in Bondowoso, said Sandiaga, certainly requires reliable human resources (HR), so as to be able to lead and develop their own area.
"In this pesantren, there are more than 2,000 students. I am sure, the students 'can be a good leader'. Yesterday I was invited by the BBC, there was a question that was asked, 'Can Islamic boarding school create future leaders?' I replied that I can afford it, and even created the leadership and president of Indonesia was once led by a student," he said.
Furthermore, said Sandiaga, the proclaimer of Bung Karno's independence had also been a student. He studied religion from Minang to Cianjur.
"We are proud to have a president who was present for the students, namely Gus Dur. Be as high as the sky, God willing, you can reach the stars in the sky," he added.
