TEMPO.CO, London - Chief of the Creative Economy Agency (Barekraf) Triawan Munaf said efforts to build a positive nation brand should not be done through promotions only.
Rather, he said that another important thing to do is by developing infrastructures.
"We’d better first fix things that we’re going to promote,” he said in Jakarta on Friday.
Therefore, Triawan said, focusing on developing infrastructures and improving services is very important.
In terms of tourist destinations, Triawan said the government must prepare more tourist destinations besides Bali.
"We have to focus on at least 10 main tourist destinations,” Triawan said.
Previously, the Tourism Ministry has designed top 10 tourist destinations, including Lake Toba, Belitung, Tanjung Lesung, Thousand Islands, Borobudur Temple, Mount Bromo, Mandalika Lombok, Komodo island, Wakatobi National Park, and Morotai.
