Minister of Art and Tourism, Jero Wacik, said the effort from government to socialize the VIY 2008 program is facing some obtacles. The biggest one is the lack to involve local government.
It makes many hotels don’t prepare their accomodations. In the end, we can’t hope VIY 2008 can be succeeded.
Jero Wacik also said, the budget for VIY 2008 is not quite big, if we compare with other ASEAN countries to promote their country. For example, Malaysia prepared budget 5 times from Indonesia in order to promote Visit Malaysia program.
But it doesn’t mean government can’t help and do anything. They do some efforts such as make collaboration with PT Angkasa Pura, increasing flight schedule, and make easy creating visa. The minister is also urge to Indonesian ambassadors to promote Indonesia in the country where they work.
Hope VIY 2008 program not fail!
