Bali like many other places in our world has been struck
by terrorism and because of these attacks, is now very aware
of its duty to protect its holiday makers, and security
levels on the island are among the highest in the world.
Bali has successfully hosted the 2003 ASEAN Conference
attended by 15 regional heads of state, and other visitors
to the island including the past and present President’s
of Indonesia, Megawati & Susilo Bambang Yudhiyono, John
Howard, Prime Minister of Australia and George W Bush, President
of the United States of America. None of these heads of
state, along with 18 others would have visited Bali if they
were unsure of their safety.
Recently Bali has hosted many incentive and meeting groups
and all have left Bali having experienced the warmth and
friendship from this island paradise.
Travel warnings too many countries are now a fact of life
- there were no warnings against the USA or New York after
the September 11th attack and no prior heightened alert
before the London attacks or warnings to stay away afterwards.
Travel warnings appear to be in place as a precaution for
foreign governments in the event of an incident, rather
than actual knowledge of planned attacks and should be taken
in the vain they were issued.
This should not stop you coming to Bali, which was voted
number 1 holiday destination again by Conde Nest Travel
Magazine in March 2005.
Those of us who live and work in Bali, and the ever-increasing
numbers of returning visitors feel safe to enjoy all the
amenities this wonderful Island has to offer.
Come Back to Bali and support the people and culture that
has given so much to ensure its holiday makers are warmly
looked after.
