What can be done to improve Bali’s image?
The sacredness of some of Bali’s traditional dances should be protected. Right now there are a lot of sacred dances that are held in some bad and unholy areas and this goes against the sacred value of Bali’s culture.
Are you satisfied with the current level of security?
No, I’m not. Some visitors are not checked carefully enough.
Is the central government doing enough to improve Indonesia?
Not really, especially concerning the arts and security.
What are the challenges that lie ahead?
Developing Bali’s tourism potential without sacrificing the sacredness of some aspects of its culture.
Where’s the hottest spot in Bali right now?
Nusa Dua – it’s very clean, and has a beautiful park and white-sand beach. (BT/AS)
