Kemenparekraf Wants to Make Online Games a Media for Promotion of Nusantara Tourism
GAMEFINITY.ID, Singkawang – The Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, wants to develop Indonesia’s tourism sector through online game media. His wish was conveyed at the Gamescom 2021 Press Conference and the 2021 Tokyo Game Show which were held virtually some time ago.
According to Sandi, he sees the online game industry currently has enormous potential. Therefore, it’s a shame if it is not used optimally.
“We can do two sides through this game, one production and promotion for our tourism,” said Sandi (16/8/2021).
Sandi admitted that his party had coordinated with the Indonesian Games Association (AGI) and the Indonesian Esports Executive Board to highlight several priority tourist destinations in Indonesia.
Some of the archipelago’s tourist destinations that will be highlighted in online games include Lake Toba, Borobudur Temple, Labuan Bajo, Mandalika, and Likupang.
The introduction of this tourist destination can be done by entering scenes from several popular games with the background of Lake Toba, or motorbike racing games using the local circuit, namely Mandalika.
Sandi added that the gaming world is not only about tourism, but can be used for many things, one of which is in terms of education.
“Including the concept of education which has now been delivered with games. This is very interesting for us to look at, “explained Sandi.
