Sarawak is now among the preferred destinations for tourists coming from Indonesia and this is a very encouraging development. Previously that a large number of the State’s tourist influx were from neighbouring Brunei Darulsalam, but the numbers of those from Indonesia were starting to increase. I
In fact, I myself realised this a few days before the 2025 New Year celebration due to congestion reported at the Tebedu Immigration, Customs, Quarantine, and Security (ICQS) Complex in Serian. This is a good indicator because it will contribute to our local economy and boost the tourism sector.
Most of the tourists from Indonesia are mainly from Jakarta, Pontianak, and Sambas in West Kalimantan of Indonesia. The influx of tourists from our neighbouring country had reflected the effectiveness of Sarawak’s promotion programmes abroad. This development is certainly welcomed because Sarawak has set a target of receiving more than five million tourists for year 2025.
