With strong bilateral relations and increasing cooperation in various fields, both countries support greater mobility for their citizens.

Chinese tourists were interested in traveling to Indonesia, as reflected in the "Best Island Destination" award given to Indonesia by the Chinese version of travel magazine "Travel and Leisure".

"The award reaffirms Indonesia's strong appeal among Chinese travelers," said Nur Evi Rahmawati, coordinator for social and cultural information at the Indonesian Embassy in Beijing, recently.

Chinese tourists spend more on average than visitors from other Asian countries, so Indonesia's tourism industry has strong growth potential, tourism businesses said.■
