Traveloka raises its voice regarding the boycott of its mobile application which was echoed on Twitter. This boycott is the aftermath of the walk out action carried out by composer and pianist Ananda Sukarlan when DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan delivered an opening speech at the 90th anniversary of the founding of Kanisius College at JIExpo Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, Saturday (11/11).

The online travel agency company confirmed that its founder, Derianto Kusuma was included in the list of recipients of the award from the Kanisius Alumni with Ananda Sukarlan and was scheduled to attend the event.

"We are also proud that one of our founders, Mr. Derianto Kusuma, received an award from the Kanisius Alumni. However, he was unable to attend because he was on an official trip that had been planned several months earlier," said Traveloka PR Manager, Busyra Oryza, when contacted by CNNIndonesia. com, Tuesday (14/11).

This statement also denies reports that Derianto attended and left the event in the middle of a speech by the Governor of DKI Anies Baswedan.

"Responding to the issue surrounding Anies' speech at the 90th Celebration of Kanisius College, we stated that the person concerned (Derianto) was out of town to attend an event that had been planned a few months earlier," continued Busyra.

Today's Twitter timeline was enlivened by a boycott of the Traveloka application because the founder reportedly walked out and was seen as an insult to Anies as a democratically elected governor.


This online tourism provider company claims that it has never discredited other parties and prioritizes the values ​​of mutual respect, tolerance and innovation.
