\"It's worth thinking about how to attract tourists from
\nJakarta to Bogor,\" Mayor Iswara Natanegara was quoted as saying
\non Saturday by Antara.<\/p>\n
\"For example, we can develop shopping tours or local snacks
\nand delicacies as a tourist attraction ... we can start by
\ndistributing leaflets to hotels in Jakarta and Bogor.\"<\/p>\n

\noffice would start developing Bogor's tourism potential in 2004.<\/p>\n
