Australia lowers Indonesia travel alert

Tourism of Bali may again go back to normal as the Australian government recently released a new travel alert to its citizens. The travel alert has now been put to a lower level, the same level as that of the Philippines, Thailand, Turkey, and India. With this alert, travelers are advised to “exercise a high degree of caution”.

Prior to this change, the Australian government advised its citizens to “reconsider their need to travel” to Indonesia. This is according to the statement issued by the Australian embassy based in Jakarta. And with the new alert, Australians are still being warned that a terrorist attack may possibly happen anytime.

With this change of alert level, a positive sign has emerged that Indonesia is doing well at its measures of combating terrorism in the country.

“This is a positive development, based on a carefully considered assessment of the level of threat to Australian travellers in Indonesia.” This is according to Greg Moriarty, Ambassador of Australia to Indonesia.

“The Australian Government accords a very high priority to the safety and security of the more than 850,000 Australians who now travel to Indonesia every year.
Providing objective travel advice is an important part of this approach,” the Ambassador added.

These travel advisories are only issued to give the citizens information on their travel overseas helping them make sound decisions. These are, however, not affected or tainted by any personal or political influences.

This good news will again make Bali’s tourism flourish again. The luxury Bali villas, Bali villas resort, and private villas in Bali, including the villas to rent in Bali, will again be visited and appreciated by tourists, local and foreign.
