Tourism and Creative Economy Minister Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno stated that several tourist attractions have been prepared around the new capital city Nusantara to welcome the 79th Independence Day anniversary commemoration ceremony on August 17, 2024.
Speaking on the sidelines of the Wonderful Indonesia Co-Branding Forum II on Friday, Uno stated that his ministry had developed Derawan Island in Berau District, East Kalimantan, as a primary destination. Renowned for its underwater panoramas and coral reefs, Derawan Island is a highlight.
Additionally, the ministry has prepared Maratua Island in Berau District, offering visitors the allure of vibrant marine life and pristine white sandy beaches.
"We have prepared destinations ranging from Derawan Island to Maratua, as well as tourism villages around Nusantara," he said.
In addition to preparing tourist destinations, Uno noted that the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy has prepared micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to showcase their products at the MSME Gallery at the Sumbu Kebangsaan area in Nusantara’s Central Government Area (KIPP).
The gallery will showcase products from various subsectors, such as food, craft, music, film, intellectual property, and furniture products.
Uno expressed readiness to follow President Joko Widodo's (Jokowi's) plan to relocate his office to the New Capital Nusantara (IKN) on July 28, 2024.
The minister remarked that the government will soon hold the first cabinet meeting in Nusantara in the next few weeks.
The 79th Independence Day anniversary commemoration ceremony on August 17 will take place in the new national capital Nusantara in East Kalimantan and the Presidential Palace in Jakarta.
The ceremony in Nusantara will be led directly by President Jokowi, while the Independence Day anniversary commemoration in Jakarta will be led by Vice President Ma'ruf Amin.
