Villa construction frenzy paving Bali paradise
No, it has to stop. The development is destroying life for the Balinese and, in the process, destroying the beauty of the place which brought us all here in the first place. Some of us over 30 years ago. It's time to stop and take a new look at the big picture for the long term. Some of, perhaps most of, the developers and Agents here are like the nice folks who used to operate in Spain etc. And investors are being screwed because they don't take the trouble to seek proper legal advice and understand that foreigners cannot own land in Indonesia. Caveat emptor for sure, but we really dont need all this sleazy shit in Bali.
