Denpasar (Antara Bali) - At least 110 foreign buyers have confirmed their
participation in the Bali Beyond Travel Fair (BBTF) 2016, chairman of
the organizing committee Ketut Ardana said.
The buyers were from South Korea, the United States, and countries in Southeast Asia and Europe, he said here, Sunday.
The registration is still open for buyers and sellers interested in the Fair, he added.
Some 30 domestic travel agents will take part in the Fair.
The BBTF organizing committee has targeted to attract at least 275
tourism operators as buyers and 225 domestic travel agents as sellers.
The committee has urged Indonesia`s embassies to help promote the Fair overseas.
The Fair will be organized in the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center
(BNDCC) in Badung District, on June 22-26. This year`s theme is "Where
the World Comes to Meet".
Ardana is optimistic that the Fair will not be affected by the terror attack that hit Jakarta last month.
Most of travel operators have good understanding of the conducive
situation on Bali Island, thanks to the security measures taken by the
provincial authorities.
Several buyers did ask few questions concerning security, but they were still normal, he added.
He, however, urged the security personnel to maintain intensive
security measures because tourism is very sensitive to security issues. (WDY)
