Jakarta, 4 November 2020 - In 2020, Traveloka once again introduces the EPIC SALE 2020 program in collaboration with thousands of partners in the Indonesian tourism industry to bring the best travel and lifestyle offers for users while adhering to clean, health, safety and environmental protocols (Clean, Health, Safety and Environment/CHSE Protocol). Traveloka as a technology company focusing in the travel and lifestyle sector is committed to continuously support the government's efforts to restore the economy, especially the tourism sector, by presenting various technology-based innovations.

The Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy Deputy of Marketing Nia Niscaya, said, "Tourism is based on mobility, when mobility is restricted, it will have a negative impact on the tourism sector, but on the other hand, we still have to keep the economic engine warm. Therefore, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy presented the CHSE protocol through the InDOnesia CARE/I DO CARE campaign to ensure that the entire tourism industry is enforcing the CHSE protocols to increase trust and a sense of security for travelers."

Nia also added that Kemenparekraf has launched the #DiIndonesiaAja campaign. This campaign aims to encourage mobility from the nearest point (staycation) among islands in Indonesia. It is hoped that the #DiIndonesiaAja tourist mobility can rebuild the economy through consumption of the tourism sector in destinations.
