Jusuf Kala's analysis
Responding to JK's proposal regarding Komodo tickets, he also gave JK's suggestion regarding Komodo tickets to reduce the entry fee to Komodo National Park to IDR 1 million. “Therefore, this tariff needs to be evaluated. I propose that the rates be reduced to, say, IDR 1 million and visitors limited to a quota, for example 500 people per day.

With these rates, tourism in Labuhan Bajo is expected to be able to operate normally. The community will be able to regain income as restaurant, hotel, car, motorbike and other rental services open.
