I once came into website having logo of Visit Indonesia 2008. I hovered my mouse on it, and there’s a link to its web page. Wow, what a promoting web page! It really shows seriousness of our government to promote Indonesia tourism on year 2008. Well, I fully support this program. It can increase Indonesia’s flag wave in international world and help local communities to develop their business, the home business one.
Indonesia has so many natural cultures, sites, cities, to see. The culture of Indonesia’s tribes has its reachness; exotic, various, and unique. Every tribe always gives new unforgetable experience to whoever having seen it. It is just too great to not see.
However, there’s something bothering my mind. Our government is busy in promoting the tourism but forgeting the fundamental thing: infrastructure. I, shortly, was reminded on how Jakarta, the capital city, was flooded by only single-day rain. It took down transportation, international airport Soekarno-Hatta along with its freeway, and even our national presidential palace. our president, President SBY, needed to move to Paspampres’s SUV to break through the flood.
Oh gosh, how can we attract tourists to come? How dare we, inviting them but on the other side, they are greet by such inconvenience. How can they recommend their relatives or colleage to come to our country? This will turn them not to see our country. I hope this thing will never happen again. We’ll learn to be better and fix up all from the most fundamental things. Visit Indonesia 2008.







what A Great Idea. hauhauhuahuahuah. Since I just Read book “WOW”. We can say Indonesia have a great culture in here. This way Indonesia can attract more tourism.
Many tourism what something new and something thrill in his/her life. People want to risk his/her live to achieve more. Climbing Himalaya, Racing , Boot, Sky Diving Etc. Why can we made indonesia like “the country with A Thousand Problem” with motto “we can guarantee that your adrenaline will rush through your head “. So People like Them Will Vist Indonesia
Ha ha ha, we never said that u’ll be comfort staying in Indonesia. That we have are challanges, Indonesia is for people who love challange to stay. So please enjoy the challanges of Indonesia.
Make yourself feel uncomfortable, unlike at home, and stronger (facing inconvenience)
well before we greet them (tourists of course), maybe we should take a look one more time at the phrase “visit Indonesia year 2008″…
do you think it’s a good phrase from structure point of view?
hhmmm…I’m quite not seeing what’s wrong in that phrase…what is it zen (or del)? I prefer add “in” before 2008 and remove “year”…what do U think?
