Jakarta will host a non-international achievement sport event in October 2016. The budget amounted Rp 50 billion has been prepared through the 2016 City Budget (APBD). 

Jakarta will be the host in the non-achievement sport. It will be participated by 140 countries

The event itself is an activity of hospitality among countries in the world. As the sport branches performed are more like traditional sports.

" Jakarta will be the host in the non-achievement sport. It will be participated by 140 countries ," said Head of Jakarta Tourism and Cultural Department, Purba Hutapea, Monday (9/7)

For Indonesia, Hutapea disclosed, the traditional sports performed are enggrang, grobak sodor (a game with two teams competing), and congklak (mancala-based wooden board game). But in this event, the champion will not be chosen. "In the event, each country will perform their traditional sport. As it is only for hospitality among countries while holiday, so there will be no champion," he told. 

He hopes, through this event, the hospitality and entertainment could increase number of tourists coming. This is because foreign countries must be sent their contingent and supporters. Currently, its number is only 2.4 million per year. The number is hoped could be increased to be 3 million and in 2020 could reach 5 million of tourists.
