The plan is to build it in Taman Kerti Bali Semesta, in the Pekutatan Jembrana area, Bali.

"The construction of the Paramount theme park will further strengthen Bali's position as a center for recreation and entertainment for the world's citizens. It will also improve Bali's economy, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic," said Bamsoet after witnessing the signing of the cooperation agreement between PT Kios Ria Kreasi and Paramount Pictures in Los Angeles, United States virtually from Jakarta, Thursday (July 15, 2021).

The chairman of the 20th DPR RI explained that the presence of the theme park is very strategic, considering that it is located in the Gilimanuk - Mengwi toll road development area which stretches for 95 kilometers. Connecting the Gilimanuk port to the cities of Denpasar, Badung, Gianyar, and Tabanan.

"The soft launch is targeted to be carried out in 2025. Its presence is expected to attract 5 million tourists every year. It will make Bali even more charming in the eyes of world tourists," explained Bamsoet.

The Deputy Chairman of the Golkar Party explained that Paramount Pictures is part of Viacom CBS, the owner of the largest TV market share in the United States and also the owner of Nickelodeon. As well as international film franchises such as Mission Impossible, Top Gun, Star Trek and The Godfather.

"Their presence in investing shows that Indonesia is very friendly to investors. It also shows that there are still many investment opportunities that investors can work on, especially in the tourism sector. Not only Bali, Indonesia also has many other favorite tourist destinations such as Lombok, Belitung, Lake Toba, to Labuan Bajo," concluded Bamsoet.
