Jakarta (ANTARA) - The government, in keeping with President Joko Widodo's (Jokowi's) instruction, decided to not proceed with the plan to increase the entry fee for Indonesian national and foreign tourists to Borobudur Temple, Central Java.
After attending the meeting on tourism affairs at the Presidential Palace here, Minister of Public Works and Public Housing Basuki Hadimuljono confirmed that the entry fee for the general public will remain unchanged at Rp50 thousand (US$3.4).
Despite keeping the current entry fee unchanged, the government will proceed with the plan to restrict the daily visit quota to the temple to 1,200 visitors, he remarked, adding that visitors are required to reserve their tickets through online means.
The minister also revealed that Borobudur visitors are required to be accompanied by a registered tourist guide during their visit and use special footwear provided by the management before ascending the temple.
