DENPASAR, Bali: Japanese tourists find the many filthy toilets
\nlocated in Indonesia's airports and tourism sites repellent
\nenough to make them cancel visits here, Antara reported
\nyesterday.<\/p>\n
Quoting Wanda, a speaker at a seminar on tourism here, the
\nagency said that many Japanese tourists prefer other countries to
\nIndonesia because of many factors, including reports of filthy
\ntoilets.<\/p>\n
She did not give details.<\/p>\n
Wanda also cited a shortage of information on Indonesia and
\nexpensive prices for Indonesian tours (as compared to other
\ndestinations such as Hawaii, South Korea, and France) as part of
\nthe problem.<\/p>\n
Indonesia ranks 17th among countries that Japanese choose as
\ntheir tourism destinations. Hawaii ranks first, followed by
\nKorea, France, the United States, Hong Kong, China, Singapore and
\nTaiwan.<\/p>\n
Over the past five years, however, the number of tourists
\nvisiting Bali increased by an average 18.6 percent per year. In
\n1991, a total of 87,700 people visited Bali. Last year, the
\nfigure rose to 112,220 people. (swe)<\/p>",
