Pikiran Rakyat are reporting on plans to hold the Bali International Airshow in 2024, the first such international aviation exhibition in Indonesia for more than 30-years.

“Indonesia, which consists of 17,000-islands, requires a large investment to improve the domestic aviation industry. Indonesia currently has 673-airports of various sizes in various regions, of course, the development and management of which require a lot of money,” he said in an official statement received by Pikiran Rakyat on Thursday, December 8, 2022.
