        "summary": "Culture Minister Fadli Zon has called for Indonesia's cultural heritage to be treated as an economic asset rather than a burden, citing the revenue potential of world-class museums. He highlighted the example of the Palace of Versailles, which he said earns around IDR 30 billion daily from ticket sales alone. The government is continuing to improve museums and heritage sites, including Borobudur and Prambanan, while inviting private sector partners to help advance national culture.",
        "content": "<p>Culture Minister Fadli Zon has said culture must become a source of\neconomy and of the cultural and creative industry so that its existence\nis not seen as a burden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that in the future our culture should not become a burden.\nCulture is a source of the cultural economy, a source of the cultural\nindustry, and also, in current terminology, what is called CCI, Cultural\nand Creative Industry,\u201d Fadli said at the Awards Night for Winners of\nthe \u2018Aku dan Budayaku\u2019 Creative Video Content Competition at the\nNational Museum of Indonesia in Jakarta on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Fadli said the Cultural and Creative Industry (CCI) has become an\ninternational term that demonstrates the economic potential of cultural\ndevelopment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbroad, museums generate fantastic, extraordinary revenues,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>Fadli cited the Palace of Versailles in France as an example.\nAccording to him, the museum can receive around 30,000 visitors a day\nwith a ticket price of around 65 euros.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo 30,000 times 65 euros, let us say 65 euros is 1 million rupiah,\nthat is already 30 billion from tickets alone, from tickets alone. One\nday, not one month,\u201d Fadli said.<\/p>\n<p>According to Fadli, the scale of this potential shows that museums\nand cultural heritage sites can provide economic benefits if they are\nmanaged and developed properly.<\/p>\n<p>The government continues to make improvements to museums, including\nin terms of exhibition layout, literacy, narrative, display and\ncollections, so that they are increasingly attractive to the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the National Museum already has an increasingly good\ninternational standard and we continue to improve it from time to time,\u201d\nhe said.<\/p>\n<p>Fadli said the government is also continuing to improve a number of\ncultural heritage sites, including Borobudur and Prambanan. Improvements\nare also being made to various other heritage sites such as temples,\nforts, mosques, churches, viharas, as well as historical and prehistoric\nheritage sites.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are also creative, we invite the private sector, corporations and\nphilanthropists to join forces together to advance our national\nculture,\u201d Fadli said.<\/p>\n<p>Fadli expressed hope that the management of museums and cultural\nheritage sites can develop as part of the cultural ecosystem while\nproviding economic benefits to the community.<\/p>",
