JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/ANN): While Indonesia plans to reopen to international tourists in the near future, medical policy failures, including the reuse of Covid-19 test kits and breaches of mandatory quarantine, have called the country’s preparation into question.
The government has established several travel rules in an effort to reduce CovidD-19 transmission risk.
Travellers must present negative results from either PCR or antigen tests, and people arriving from outside the country are required to quarantine at designated facilities for five days.
