The Immigration Office of Bali province will deport four foreigners for violating their visa permits, Chief of Supervisory Unit at Bali’s Immigration Office Mohamad Soleh said here on Tuesday.
The four foreigners have been identified as Steven Thomas Gibbs (25), Nancy May Evans (23), Nicholas William Thomas Jones (22), all British nationals, and Marina Naloni Bozlee (17) from the United States.
According to Soleh, Nancy May Evans will be deported on Tuesday (Nov 18) at 8:00 p.m. Central Indonesian Time while the other three are waiting for their plane reservation tickets. Besides deporting the four, the immigration office has also banned them from entering Indonesia for the next six months.
Soleh stated the immigration police arrested the foreigners during a routine raid at the Seminyak area, Bali province. The four were caught working at a store in Oberoi Street.
“They misused their stay permit. They came to Indonesia through the visa-on-arrival facility that does not offer work permits to visitors,” noted Soleh.
He added that November 2014 will see 114 foreigners being deported from Bali. Last year, 78 foreigners were deported. While 70 percent of the foreigners deported were Australians, the remaining were from the United States, Russia, England, France, Singapore, China, New Zealand, Venezuela, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan, Greece, and Kazakhstan.

Clearly the change in the immigration policy is due to the fanatics christian manly from NAmerica that try to change the indonesian culture and religion as much as is doing Saudi Arabia. So, Jakarta mistrust foreigners, and the lack of education in the archipelago, make the locals in a lower position in the jobs applications. But, how much money is then ‘pocketed’ with this immigration policy by officials and young lazy indonesians pretending they are working, just bringing thousands of passports to the local immigration offices? Chinese have a better ride: they look like indos and they bribes all the way to the citizenship. Plus, adding more shit to the pile, jakarta do not allow double citizenship by foreigners, but which chinese doesn’t have a house, bank account at bni Singapore and some kind of other passports. In the end, is just about a more serious country, that cut out crazy Protestants missionaries and large donation from the persian gulfs, the real cancer for the Indonesian culture.
