Marketing Director and InJourney Tourism Program, Maya Watono, said that InJourney as the SOE Tourism Holding and Supporters fully supports the 2023 FIM ARRC Idemitsu Racing event.

Furthermore, Maya said that this was also in line with InJourney's mission in order to strengthen the tourism ecosystem to accelerate national economic recovery, especially the Mandalika area as one of the five Super Priority Tourism Destinations (DPSP).

Maya said the implementation of the ARRC was a commitment to continuing the legacy in an effort to maintain consistency in promoting the Mandalika SEZ as sports and entertainment tourism to increase regional economic turnover.

"Events like this are an effort to continue to revive the Mandalika SEZ which will ultimately have a multiplier effect on the local economy in the Mandalika SEZ area such as accommodation, transportation, MSMEs, job opportunities, and so on," said Maya, in a press conference at the Office InJourney, Sarinah, Jakarta, Thursday, July 27.

Furthermore, Maya said of course the exposure resulting from this event would increase the attention of both foreign and domestic tourists so that there would be an increase in tourist traffic visiting West Nusa Tenggara.

"Of course, we have to take care of this to create sustainable Mandalika SEZ tourism," said Maya.
