Bali made it to the top on tripadvisor recently by getting picked as the most popular year end travel destination between 1st December 2016-28 February 2017. Bali also exceeded the record number of foreign tourist arrival of 4.4 million (total number of 4.485.137 ) data extracted from Central Statistics Agency of Bali. Thus, Arief Yahya, Minister of Tourism does not hesitate when targeting 6 millions foreign visitors coming to Bali as part of his 15 millions international arrivals target in Indonesia in 2017.

Ministry is all set to take necessary actions to stabilize the transport issue in Bali as last week there were a lot of news about the feud between Bali Drivers Alliance and online-based transport application, such as Uber, Grab and Gojek. A peaceful rally was also arranged in front of the Governor's office in Denpasar reminding the government to take action.
