Village office burned in Bali

DENPASAR, Bali: The office of Lembongan village in Klungkung regency in Bali, around 20 kilometers southeast of Denpasar, was set on fire early Thursday by unidentified people.

Klungkung regent Tjokorda Ngurah was quoted by Antara as saying that the culprits could have been parties who were dissatisfied with the re-election of the village head, I Nyoman Embon.

"Dissatisfied residents should express what they want through legal channels," he said. No one was hurt.
