A saying that I came up with 18 years ago is "Every problem has a solution. Every solution takes time, money or a combination of both".
Over the last two weeks I have been thinking about solutions for Bali's problem to reinitiate tourism.
I told my family and friends last week that the solution is that tourists must have a swab test and a health certificate before they even board a plane to come to Bali.
After they arrive they need to have another test to confirm that they are still negative for Covid - 19.
I woke up and hour ago to the news that the Bali government has come up with a solution along similar lines.
Eleven hours ago the Jakarta Post published that Bali authorities had the foresight to come up with a plan to allow airport arrivals to continue while at the same time providing little chance of domestic and international travellers from bringing COVID - 19 into Bali.
Congratulations to the Bali administration and it's airport spokesmen Airport Authority head Elfi Amir for coming up with a protocol that will be initiated in five days at the Bali airport.
When will Tourists begin to arrive?
Now the big question is when will domestic and international flights for tourists be allowed to arrive at Bali's international airport?
Over the last couple weeks there's been several reports of everything from July to October. But unless I missed something there's been no formal government statements with an exact date.
The last official government statement I saw was that they would stop all flights until June 1st. I have not seen a statement from the government documenting what they will be doing after June 1st. If there is an official document please provide me a link to it.
What I do know is that many businesses in Bali are on the brink of bankruptcy. Approximately 70% 90% of Hotel, restaurant and tourist attraction employees have been laid off.
Fortunately we have been able to maintain almost 100% of our staff who are supported by the owners of our villas. Our management staff has-been supported by PT Bali Affordable Lifestyles International owned by my wife Azizah and myself.
So if they don't allow flights soon there maybe a major catastrophe in Bali.
I asked my management staff yesterday at our Bali PT. Bali Luxury Villas if any of them had any friends that were working and the answer was no.
So I have a gut feeling, and that's all it is, that now that they set a deadline for new Covid-19 airport protocol on May 28 th. soon thereafter we may see domestic tourists allowed to travel and following that international travellers.
This is just my hope and not an official policy of the Bali or federal government.
Bali to require COVID-19 swab test results for all visitors

Anyone with plans to visit Bali must first undergo a swab test and a obtain letter stating they are free from COVID-19 under a new policy issued by the Bali administration that will take effect later this month in order to curb transmission of the disease on the world-renowned resort island.
From May 28, everyone visiting Bali is required to have undergone a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, Bali Airport Authority head Elfi Amir said.
“We urge everyone and all airlines to ensure this has been done before flying to Bali, all passengers must already have PCR test results declaring they are negative for COVID-19. The document should be checked at the airport prior to departure,” Elfi told The Jakarta Post on Thursday.
Elfi explained that a virtual coordination meeting had been conducted on Thursday to notify all related stakeholders of the new policy, including airlines.
The airport authority and the Bali COVID-19 Task Force will recheck the swab test results of all passengers upon arrival at I Gusti Ngurah Rai International airport.

If any passenger arrives without a swab test result, the airport authority will let the task force take action.
“We will also reprimand the airline for not following the regulation,” Elfi emphasized.
Bali Governor Wayan Koster sent a letter to the transportation minister on May 18, requesting the swab test results be made a requirement to enter the island through the airport.
However, in the same letter, the governor did not request similar a requirement for people entering the island through the seaport.
For those entering the island through the seaport, Koster only requested a rapid test result issued by a public hospital, regional health agency or other authority that declares a person negative for COVID-19.
The rapid test result and swab test result should be valid for at least seven days after the arrival day at Bali’s airport.
Bali COVID-19 Task Force executive chairman, Dewa Made Indra, reiterated that everyone planning to visit Bali must have the COVID-19-free letter when they buy the ticket. Visitors must also register at the provincial website https://cekdiri.baliprov.go.id, which will provide a QR code that can be shown when buying the ticket as a proof that the passengers are healthy.
The policy is required for everyone except flight attendants who only transit in Bali.
“The policy was made to limit people from traveling. So, for those who have no important and urgent interest, it is better to delay their trip,” Dewa said.

He explained that swab test requirement was not out of line. He said the administration was not asking for privileges or special treatment, but was only seeking to follow the central government’s plan to make Bali the first region to recover from the COVID-19 outbreak.
Dewa Indra said the administration appreciated the central government’s plan to make Bali the first COVID-19 free area.
“However, it is not a simple thing. It will be a long road as [the outbreak] is not over yet. Bali wants to tightly control who enters Bali, both Indonesians and
foreigners, because all people are possible COVID-19 carriers,” he said.
The swab test, he said, was needed to filter those seeking to enter to prevent further transmission on the island.
As the policy will come into effect on May 28, Dewa said all airlines needed to begin disseminating information to their future passengers.
