Toba, The Indonesia Post – The super-fast F1 Powerboat Lake Toba race in the waters of Muliaraja Napitupulu Harbor, Balige, Toba, North Sumatra, on 24-26 February 2023, is believed to be able to boost the number of tourist visits to the area.
Marketing Director of PT Aviasi Wisata Indonesia or Injourney, Maya Watono in Balige, Toba, Friday, said that the multi-effect F1Powerboat Lake Toba 2023 is believed to be able to boost economic activity in the tourism sector.
The super-fast boat race is targeted to be able to absorb thousands of tourists and move the wheels of the regional economy.
“This activity has definitely had an impact on the community because various other agendas outside the core competition involve the community, especially tourism and creative economy actors,” said Maya Watono.
For this reason, in addition to the activities that took place from February 24 to 26, they were able to absorb local workers, the wheels of the economy could rotate because MSMEs and the occupancy of hundreds of cheap inns owned by the community were fully occupied.
Increasing tourist arrivals, vehicle rental business, promotion of MSME products and other effects has a significant impact on economic growth.
For Injourney, he said, the F1 Powerboat is not only limited to an economic effect but a multi-effect that can also bring tourists to Indonesia even for the next 50 years and for people in Toba and the country.
“So we thank you for choosing us to organize this event and jointly host it. The success of this event also requires the support of all parties,” he said. (mhn/bbs)
