Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Surabaya city in East Java province by ways of the Surabaya Tourism Promotion Board (STPB) has joined the Tourism Promotion Organization for Asia Pacific Cities (TPO), which covers various cities in the Asia and Pacific region, and a membership of 56 cities in 12 countries

The meeting discussed efforts of increasing the number of foreign tourists by issuing TPO traveller`s cards which covered all the TPO members, in addition to the exchange program for students as long-term tourism investment, joint overseas marketing, and development of the routes of cruise ships to all cities of TPO member countries.

TPO was founded on August 31, 2002, and its presidency is currently held by the mayor of Busan, Korea, Nam Sik Hur, and his deputy is mayor of Fukuoka, Japan, Hiroshi Yoshida.

The organization is aimed at tourist information exchange, joint marketing and promotion, development and promoting tourist products, development of human resources, research on tourism and tourism statistics management. (*)
