DENPASAR, 17 November 2022, (TON): The G20 Summit may impart new momentum to the recovery of tourism in Bali now that the island has returned to the international limelight by hosting the leaders of the world’s most powerful countries.
With tourism accounting for almost 60 percent of the Balinese economy, the resort island has struggled since the pandemic brought the global travel industry to a halt.
Like other countries, Indonesia had cut off international flights and imposed restrictions for almost two years, and only ended quarantine requirements for foreign visitors in March, a move that is now enabling Bali to attract more international travelers.
As leaders from the world’s biggest economies met and thousands of other participants took part in G20 meetings, local hospitality industry officials expressed hope that the international attention garnered by Bali would hasten the island’s recovery.
