THROUGHOUT 2025, the number of Indonesian tourists visiting Singapore reached 2.4 million. This makes Indonesia the second-largest source of tourists for Singapore.
According to Terrence Voon, Executive Director for Southeast Asia at the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), siad the profile of Indonesian tourists visiting Singapore has shifted following the COVID-19 pandemic. Post-pandemic, they are increasingly seeking activities, experiences, and event-based tourism—such as music concerts and sporting events.
“Therefore, it is hoped that the growing number of attractions and events hosted in Singapore will draw even more international tourists to the country,” he said.
