BALI Reopening Tourism – Latest Updates

September 8 – Bali is seeing more than 9,000 international tourists per day, says Minister

The number of foreign visitors to Indonesia has reached 1.2 million in the first seven months of this year, thanks to the introduction of the Visa on Arrival (VOA) scheme.

According to the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, tourist arrivals rose to 476,970 in July from 345,438 in June, mainly from Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, India and the United States.

The resort island of Bali, the program’s largest recipient, recorded 246,504 tourist visits in July, reaching a new high since the Covid 19 outbreak began, with about 9,000 tourists per day, the ministry said.

According to Minister Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, VOA is currently open to citizens from 75 countries, including visitors from the Maldives, Monaco and Colombia.

COVID-19 situation in Indonesia

As of today, the country has reported 6,385,140 positive cases and 157,729 deaths.

Despite being an island chain that is roughly the size of the United States, most of those people live on a handful of islands in highly urbanized areas.

For many people in East Asia, face masks and social distancing are quite normal after so many contagious diseases over the past twenty years. Indonesia has not reached that point yet.

The government is trying everything necessary to maintain complete control of the pandemic without destroying much of Bali’s tourism-based economy in the balance.
