"Indonesian Tourists Flock to Singapore, Mostly from Jakarta, Surabaya, and Riau Islands"

"Dream - Indonesian society is still recorded as the largest group of tourists who choose Singapore as a vacation destination. The number of Indonesian tourist visits is even almost twice as much as China, which is in second place."

The Most Indonesian Tourists Vacation in Singapore, Here are Three Regions of Origin

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The revelation came from the presentation of Terrence Voon, Executive Director of the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) South East Asia, stating that the arrival of foreign tourists to Singapore is led by Indonesian citizens with a total of 2.3 million people, followed by China with 1.4 million, and Malaysia with 1.1 million. "A total of 2.3 million Indonesian tourists visited Singapore in 2023. This number is the highest compared to tourists from other countries, so the majority last year was from Indonesia," said Terrence Voon during a press conference and Iftar together in Central Jakarta on Tuesday, March 26, 2024, yesterday."

According to Terrence, the tourism sector in Singapore is starting to move towards recovery after seeing the number of foreign tourists arriving in Singapore reaching 13.6 million in 2023. Meanwhile, regarding the large number of Indonesian tourists visiting Singapore, Terrence revealed that most Indonesians come to attend various events held in the country. One of them is Taylor Swift's concert, which is watched by many Indonesians.

"We see that Singapore remains an attractive destination for tourism and business. Indonesia is a major and important market for Singapore, and we will continue to nurture and strengthen partnerships with industry stakeholders to drive tourism growth," he continued. Terrence also added that most tourists from Indonesia who vacation in Singapore come from three major cities in Indonesia. Those three cities are Jakarta, Surabaya, and the Riau Islands, which are relatively close to Singapore."

"Seeing the enthusiasm of the Indonesian community coming to Singapore as a holiday destination, STB launched its latest global marketing campaign entitled Made in Singapore in Indonesia. "This latest campaign aims to attract the attention of tourists and inspire them to choose Singapore as their next travel destination, with a focus on how Singapore transforms everyday moments into extraordinary experiences for tourists," he said."

"Jewel Changi and the Paradise of Shopping"

Indriati Permanasari, as the Manager of Indonesia International Group STB, said that several tourist destinations in Singapore have indeed become world-renowned, including Jewel Changi, Marina Bay Sands, Garden by The Bay, Universal Studio Singapore, Genting Dream Destination Cruises, Trifecta, SEA Oceanarium, Bird Paradise, and so on. However, among the many tourist destinations, according to Indriati, Jewel Changi and shopping tourism are the most favored by Indonesian citizens.

"Many are curious about the waterfall at Changi Airport's Jewel Changi, it feels like bathing when you're in this attraction. As for shopping, the Orchard area is still a favorite among tourists, including those from Indonesia," said Indriati.
