Tourism sector to get morale boost

JAKARTA: The City Tourism Office will present awards to the
best companies in the tourism business on Nov.14 as part of a
move to boost morale in the deteriorating tourism sector, a
senior official said Wednesday.

"We will give the so-called Adikarya Wisata awards to those in
the tourism sector including hotels, restaurants, resorts and
travel agents to encourage the industry," spokesman Robert P.
Silalahi said.

Robert said there were 327 corporate participants who will be
eligible for award nominations.

He said those nominees had been selected by a group of juries
from independent experts and officials in the sector.

The award presentation ceremony is slated to be held at Sahid
Jaya hotel. --JP
