| Prime Minister Julia Gilliard |
Julia Gillard, Prime Minister of Australia, will be visiting Bali in October to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the bombings in Bali.
Both Bali and Canberra will be having services on October 12. Meanwhile, Governor-General Quentin Bryce will be leading the services in the capital of Australia. In Canberra, it will be held in the Great Hall of Parliament House while in Bali, it will be held in Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park
"It was a moment of horror that had a profound effect on Australia as a nation and on the lives of survivors and the family and loved ones of those who died. Time has healed many of the physical wounds caused by the bombings but it can never diminish the sense of wrong we feel at this act of terror. Forgetting would be the ultimate injustice - and we will never forget,” said Gillard.
In an effort to allow the families of the victims of the bombings to attend either service, the Australian government promises to provide the financial assistance that they will need.
Of the 202 that died in the bombings, 88 were Australians.
This is seen as an opportunity for the Prime Minister to see and experience for herself the different Bali luxury villas and Bali villas resort. The luxury villas in Bali are among the reasons why the island is considered a top tourist destination.
