In the nine months of 2021, 43 foreign tourists visited Bali 
only 43 foreign travelers, up from 6.3 million in the same period in 2019. The Daily Mail writes about this.
Thus, the villages and settlements of the island, which were once under the weight of an excessive tourist load, have turned into ghost towns – local entrepreneurs are struggling to “stay afloat”, as the flow of foreign travelers has not been able to recover in recent years.
It is noted that over the past decade, Bali has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world among Australians, Europeans, immigrants from the Americas, and residents other Asian countries. From 2000 to 2019, the number of incoming foreign tourists quadrupled and exceeded the local population (about four million people).
Entrepreneurs began to actively develop the hotel and restaurant business, relying on a large flow of travelers – about 50 percent of Bali's economy depends on tourism. However, in early 2020, the picture changed dramatically – due to the pandemic and strict entry rules, the number of tourists fell sharply.
Bali Governor Wayan Koster called for making the island less dependent on tourism. “Tourism development has been misdirected and has not benefited other sectors of the economy,” he said.
Earlier in November, it was reported that the Indonesian government had eased antiquarian restrictions on vaccinated foreign travelers. According to the innovations, upon arrival in the country, vaccinated tourists are required to undergo a three-day compulsory quarantine (previously, the isolation period was five days).
