Indonesia to reopen Australia tourist office

Strong growth in business and holiday travel to Indonesia will see the republic reopen its tourist office in Sydney this year as Garuda Indonesia expands its Australian flight capacity by around 20 per cent.

The deputy minister of marketing for the country’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Udin Saifuddin, said Indonesia attracted a total of 420,000 business and private visitors from Australia in 2004.

Overall visitor arrivals exceeded five million last year and tourism became the second largest earner after energy (oil and gas).
