Through this management cooperation, PT TWC is fully committed to developing TMII as a tourist destination for introducing Indonesian cultural diversity that is educational, relevant, and inspiring.

"We have high hopes that PT Bhiva can make TMII's name known as The Ultimate Showcase of Indonesian Beauty, of course in accordance with the four pillars of TMII management, namely Green, Smart, Inclusive, and Culture, which adhere to the principles of Good Corporate Governance," said Febrina.

We hope that in the future TMII will become a culturally-minded tourist destination that is the pride of Indonesia and becomes the ultimate showcase," he said.
