“To include achievements made by Indonesian Tourism, for example the recognition of traditional dances, we must keep all the files in case other countries might attempt to claim our assets,” said Mustari.

The meeting was fully supported by the Tourism Ministry as it was a form of “MICE Tourism”. MICE stands for “meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions”.

“We support this event since it is a MICE activity that helps improve the economy of Bangka Belitung,” said Esthy Reko Astuti, the ministry's archipelago tourism marketing development deputy. (kes)
