Visitors came not only from Jakarta but also from various other regions across Indonesia. "This achievement reflects Jakarta's economic optimism which remains strong," Karno said during the closing ceremony.
Karno described the Jakarta Fair as more than just a routine exhibition celebrating Jakarta's anniversary. He views it as a microcosm of Jakarta itself, presenting a wide array of offerings from government services and commercial products to micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and the creative industry. With over 1,800 booths and 2,800 participants, the fair served as a platform for national products, business opportunities, investment, and creativity.

The deputy governor expressed his desire for the fair to be bigger and more impactful, providing broader economic benefits.
