It is another next step forward after appointing Richard Gere as our tourism ambassador to the US.

This is important because in our new mature and smart society we have come into a new phase in our democracy.

We are looking for something new, but we move on. With this program we expect more tourists from China.

I think Jackie Chan is quite popular and he is one of the most favorite Hong Kong actors in Indonesia.

The position of a tourism ambassador would be very agreeable for him to attract Chinese tourists to Indonesia.

Find various entertainers to promote tourism in Indonesia. That will bring them in. Now, we just need to loosen up the prudish mindset of the locals.

I don'€™t agree with this minister'€™s policy because it might only work for a short period of time and I think it'€™s better to use our own film stars who have international reputations to become our tourist ambassadors instead.

It is a cool idea. Let us play like the drunken masters.
