Lost attraction
Lost attraction
An international survey shows that Bali's attractiveness for
tourists dropped from the top spot down to the eighth. What
happened? Did the "Island of Paradise" lose its charm, its
beautiful environment, its hospitable people? Maybe a little bit
of all. What to do to get the No. 1 spot back?
Let's try a cocktail, the Bali Loves You, consisting of:
2 dashes of less hustling the tourists to buy sunglasses, t-
shirts, hats or watches;
2 dashes of not overcharging foreign passengers on bemo and
buses;
3 dashes of a general cleanup of the beaches;
1 dash of moderate accommodation prices;
5 dashes of not asking for money at the International Airport
Arrival by government officials.
Those ingredients, shaken well, would create a very delicious
drink, which might lure our dear guests back to Bali. Give it a
try! Cheers!
