Tourists still undergo quarantine when Bali reopens

The Head of the Bali Provincial Tourism Office, I Putu Astawa said on Friday (09/04/2021 ) that this is not only required for foreigners, but also for Indonesian citizens who returned from abroad.  This step is a effort against the spread of covid-19 and also to target foreign tourists to stay for a long period in Bali.

Currently every foreigner who entering Indonesia must be for quarantined for 5 nights on his own costs  and not paid by the government according Putu Astawa.  The foreign tourists will be on arrival in Bali guided directly to the quarantined  hotels located  in the green zones. During the quarantine period, foreign tourists are still able to visit all destinations around their hotel. Only have to apply to the strict  regulations. 

Foreign tourists who will test positive for Covid-19 will be isolated to a hospital to be treated against the Covid-19 virus. This has been decided to avoid the spread of virus clusters from foreigners and to be able to react very fast said Putu Astawa

He stated that the new regulations in the world of tourism is a form of new normal life. The pre-pandemic regulations could not be applied during the Covid-19 pandemic. The strict regulations are made for the sake of everyone’s interest and security and will be for the foreign tourists a bigger effort on a higher cost.
