"Previously, BPS revealed that the status of 17 international airports was revoked, which turned out to only serve 169 foreign tourists throughout 2023. That number is less than one percent of the total number of foreign tourists to Indonesia."

Acting Head of BPS, Amalia Adininggar Widyasanti, stated that in 2023, the number of foreign tourists at the 17 airports whose international status is revoked will only amount to 169 foreign tourist visits. Amalia predicts that if this number is made into a percentage proportion of the total number of foreign tourist visits to Indonesia, the obtained figure is less than one percent.

"Approximately, if we calculate the percentage, it is 0.0021 percent of the total foreign tourist visits through other main air gates in that year," said Amalia quoted from Liputan6.com. In addition, if we look at the number of domestic tourists traveling abroad through those 17 airports, it is only 61,106 trips. "Or approximately only 1.06 percent of the total domestic tourist trips," she said.
