00:00 On the other hand, Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandhya Gauno,
00:03 has confirmed that the SPA business will not be affected by the increase in the taxes on entertainment.
00:08 This is expressed as a response from the very hard-hitting
00:12 from the industry and the tourism and creative economy actors,
00:15 especially in Bali, which was previously voiced.
00:17 The SPA industry in Indonesia, especially Bali,
00:23 is ensured that the increase in the tax on entertainment will not affect
00:26 to 40% and a maximum of 75%.
00:29 The reason is, according to Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy,
00:32 Sandhya Gasalahuddin Uno,
00:34 the SPA industry is not classified as entertainment, but as a burden.
00:38 Sandi then explained that there is not a single government regulation
00:41 that classifies SPA as an entertainment business.
00:45 Sandi explained that if people go to the SPA to look for health, aka wellness.
00:50 And the SPA industry in Bali is part of wellness, not entertainment.
00:57 So, going to the SPA is not for entertainment for the men and women,
01:01 especially the men.
01:03 But, why are you laughing?
01:07 They get a diversion,
01:10 and the diversion is using spices and
01:15 oil,
01:20 oil that is produced with local culture.
01:25 Sandi also explained that the majority of spices and oils used in SPA businesses in Bali
01:30 are produced with local culture.
01:34 The Kerah Foundation has developed the SPA industry in Indonesia
01:37 through the wellness and sport tourism program.
01:40 If SPA is included in the entertainment category,
01:42 it will later change the public perception as well.
01:45 And this affects the professional image of therapists.
01:49 If SPA is not integrated with local culture,
01:51 there will be a risk of cultural modification.
01:54 And it will be considered as an attraction,
01:56 not respecting the actual context.
