Previously, the plan had been approved by the State-Owned Enterprises (SOE) Ministry, Transportation Ministry and Tourism Ministry.
“The tourism minister wanted us to add a dedicated parking and contact stand for the terminal. The increase in foreign tourist arrivals from the terminal will support tourism,” Awaluddin said. (gis/mut)
