Indonesia Has Potential to Shape Future of Global Halal Tourism

Indonesia’s potential in Halal tourism

With a large Muslim population and a rich knowledge of Islamic culture, Indonesia possesses the massive potential to spearhead global Halal tourism.

Some countries lack the information on how to improve this type of touristic activities such as what food and beverages can be served to Muslim travelers.

Thus, Indonesia can take advantage of such opportunities by sharing information with countries like Taiwan that is genuinely invested in developing its Halal tourism sector.

Although Indonesia is also involved in this tourism sector, it remains unclear how the country plans on expanding it in the future.

As such, Rita suggests that Indonesia work in parallel with overseas Halal tourism development in order to improve its own approach to this Muslim-friendly tourism sector.
