Will Indonesia’s Olympics Bid Ever Have a Tourism Upside?

Skift Take: Without doubt, Indonesia is one economy in Southeast Asia that has made much progress. But its 2032 bid for the Olympics 2032 still comes as a surprise. While the event may force the country to build much-needed infrastructure, it may also break its bank. With poverty still widespread, that would be a shame and could backfire.
