SINGAPORE (DPA): Singapore Airlines (SIA) said on Friday that
it would provide help in promoting tourism to Singapore's
beleaguered neighbor, Indonesia.

The airline would help by flying overseas tour operators and
travel writers to Indonesia and taking Indonesian tourism
industry members abroad to help them promote their country, SIA
said in a news release.

SIA said it would also fly an "Indonesian cultural troupe" to
perform at Germany's Berlin Fair, a public event in March
expected to draw 85,000 people.

Over the past year, Indonesia's economic collapse, political
turmoil, race riots and forest fires have drawn widespread media
attention.
