Focus Group Discussion (FGD) focusing on the theme 'Government’s Communication Management in the Digital Era' was held on Nov. 17 at Aston Inn Hotel in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara.
One of the speakers at the event was Tourism Minister Arief Yahya who talked about Wonderful Indonesia Go Digital.
“We need to realize that digitalization will become a part of the people’s lives. The strategies that I’m thinking of need to be implemented quickly in all regions,” Arief said.
“We need to publish data from primary resources that are recognized by the global standard, don’t use personal opinions without being backed by supporting data,” he added.
Arief also talked about the Indonesia Charms Generation (GenPI), a community of young people who promote Indonesia tourism through social media.
“These are volunteers who continuously promote Indonesia tourism on social media. Keep promoting the country’s tourist destinations, events and tourism policies,” he said.
During his Mataram visit, the minister made a stop at Setanggor Tourist Village in Central Lombok Regency, located five kilometers from Lombok International Airport. The tourist village promotes religious tourism and has 14 tourist attractions. (asw)
