FINALLY - I like this man, he talks well and truthful about our situation here, lets support him!
in The Bali Sun today - 21/09/2023
The Chairman of the Bali Villa Association, I Putu Gede Hendrawan, has spoken up on behalf of local communities, tourism business owners, and tourists themselves.
Hendrawan noted that despite years worth of discussion, seminars, expert studies, and even project proposals, there has yet to be a single impactful solution to the traffic congestion in Bali. He explained that the tourism sector is at risk if nothing is done soon.
He said that although the number of tourists on the island right now is something to be grateful for in the wake of the pandemic, serious and urgent action must be taken to tackle the road infrastructure on the island.
Hendrawan said, āTalking about quality tourism must come from two sides, both the tourists and the tourism products.ā He was speaking about a recent announcement from political leaders who want to promote higher-quality tourism in Bali by encouraging higher quality (and higher spending) tourists on vacation.
He pointed out that the quality of a destinationās tourism offering is about more than the luxurious nature of accommodation. Quality public infrastructure plays a less sexy but essential role in establishing quality tourism.
Please share and get the word out on the streets.
