There are no prerequisites for introducing a quota system for foreign tourists, including Russians, in Bali, Indonesia. This was told to RBC at the Russian Embassy in Indonesia. The idea of introducing a quota was introduced by the governor of the popular tourist island Wayan Coster.
“This is a personal initiative of the governor of Bali state. “There are no prerequisites for the introduction of this system,” he said.
RBC also sent a request to the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Earlier, Bali governor Wayan Koster suggested returning to the quota system to visit the island for the next 100 years due to the increasing number of crimes by tourists. According to the governor, 101 tourists, 27 of whom are citizens of the Russian Federation, have been deported from the island since January “most of the violators are from Russia.” For the past few months, Indonesian authorities have been looking for an opportunity to limit the flow of tourists from Russia, because, according to the island’s administration, Russians “abuse hospitality” – they do not fly away from Bali. stay there to live and work, at the end of the visa period.
