Government Addresses Concerns Over Entertainment Tax Hike in Tourism Sector

Indonesia's Tourism and Creative Economy Minister, Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, reassures businesses in the tourism and creative economy sectors amidst a 40 to 75 percent increase in entertainment tax. Minister Uno emphasizes that government policies aim to empower these industries.

Spa business owners in Bali, feeling burdened by the tax hike, are encouraged by the Head of the Bali Tourism Office to submit objection letters to local governments and the Bali governor. Meanwhile, the Indonesian Tourism Industry Board (GIPI) reports spa entrepreneurs have filed a judicial review challenging the tax regulations.
