(chinadaily.com.cn) Updated:2016-04-29

Around 120 representatives from travel agencies, hotels and media outlets attended Indonesia's sales mission in Xiamen on April 23, according to local authorities.

Zhan Cangzhou, chairman of the Xiamen People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, said Xiamen and Indonesia have maintained close exchanges in business, tourism and culture.

The biennial Nanyang Cultural Festival, for example, is a significant platform for cultural exchanges between Xiamen and the ten ASEAN countries.

Ratu Silvy Gayatri, Indonesia Consul General of Guangzhou, said ASEAN countries attach great importance to the Nanyang Cultural Festival and recommend their own culture heritage and tourist destinations at the event to enhance reciprocal interest.

Traveling in Indonesia is never fruitless because of the country's rich cultural heritage and spectacular natural scenery, the consul general said, adding that he hoped that Chinese tourists in Indonesia will reach two million in 2016.
