JAKARTA (Reuters) - Foreign visitor arrivals to Indonesia in July fell 10.77% from the same month a year earlier to 138,967, the statistics bureau said on Wednesday, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to disrupt global travel.

 

Southeast Asia's biggest economy typically saw over a million foreign visitors each month before the pandemic.
