Sleman - Deputy Minister of Creative Economy Irene Umar hopes that the tourism sector can also support the role of local micro, small and medium enterprises during the 2025 Eid holiday.
"By involving MSMEs around tourist destinations, it is hoped that it can boost local economic growth," said Irene at the Prambanan Temple Tourism Park Complex, Saturday.
According to him, the program run by the Borobudur, Prambanan and Ratu Boko Temple Tourism Park (TWC) or InJourney Destination Management (IDM) during this year's Eid has had an impact on more than 2,500 local MSMEs and 150 artists involved during the 2025 Eid Holiday Season.
"The presence of MSMEs and the involvement of communities and artists in tourism are very beneficial, not only as a tourist attraction, but also have a direct impact on the absorption of labor that supports local economic growth," he said.
He said, this is expected to strengthen the tourism chain and increase local wisdom or hospitality of the Indonesian people.
