Bali immigration offers get off lightly with administrative sanctions for misappropriating nearly US$300,0000 is VOA funds; there’s a rat plague threatening Bali’s agricultural crops; a new Chief of Police has been named for the island; efforts are underway to increase tourism ties between Bali and Dili (East Timor); funding is being provided for free medical care for all Balinese by 2010; and there's news of the continuing saga of two new "Best Western" properties said to be breaking local zoning laws.
Calendars ready? Attend a one-woman play in Ubud on August 15th and an exhibition of "bejeweled" batiks at the Maya Ubud Resort August 17-September 15, 2009. The Nikko Bali Resort also has a month-long calendar of remarkable Balinese cultural performance this August, many fresh off the stage of the Bali Arts Festival.
