PeduliLindungi app mandatory as Bali reopens tourist spots to public Visitors must have the integrated health and mobility tracker app PeduliLindungi installed on their phones, which contains data on users’ vaccination and testing history.
Bali is still under Level 4 of the central government’s Enforcement of Restrictions on Public Activities (PPKM) protocol, but a number of tourist destinations across the island are reopening to the public today in accordance with the latest circular published by the provincial government yesterday.
Natural, cultural, man-made, spiritual tourist attractions and tourist villages are to undergo trial runs for reopening with a maximum visitor capacity of 50 percent by implementing very strict health protocols and [for visitors] to use the PeduliLindungi app,” the circular, which was signed by Bali Governor Wayan Koster, reads. Kuta Beach and the Tanah Lot temple are among the tourist attractions that have reopened today, while others such as Jatiluwih rice terraces in Tabanan
regency and the Sangeh Monkey Forest in Badung regency are set to reopen tomorrow and Friday, respectively. I Wayan Wasista, a bendesa adat (traditional village leader) in Kuta, said that visitors and sellers have to be fully vaccinated and have their digital certificates in the PeduliLindungi app to be granted entry to Kuta Beach. On the other hand, visitors to the Tanah Lot temple are required to scan a QR code at the entrance using PeduliLindungi, which will determine whether or not they meet the requirements to be granted entry, including having received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Mall restaurants, cafés may serve dine-in customers as Bali provincial gov’t issues fresh rules operate at 50 percent capacity from 10am-9pm with strict health protocols, as written in a Ministerial Instruction recently issued by Home Affairs Minister Tito Karnavian.
What are COVID-19 regulations in Indonesia without overlapping rules from central and regional governments? Bali, which is in Level 4 of the central government’s Enforcement of Restrictions on Public Activities (PPKM) protocol until at least Sept. 13, was undergoing a trial run for the reopening of malls, which started yesterday. During the trial run, malls are allowed to
Among the regulations, restaurants and cafés located inside malls were only allowed to accept deliveries or takeaways orders during this period. That has changed, however, with the Bali provincial government publishing a circular on Sept. 7 to roll back some of the restrictions. “Restaurants, cafés inside shopping centers/malls/trade centers can accept dine-in patrons with a maximum capacity of 25 percent and dining time of 30 minutes,” the circular, which was signed by Bali Governor Wayan Koster, reads.

Movie theaters, kids’ playing areas, and other entertainment facilities in malls must remain closed even with the new circular. There is a trade-off with the new circular, however, in regards to visitor screening for mall entry. Under PPKM rules, those who have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine can enter Bali’s malls using the test and trace app PeduliLindungi. However, Koster’s circular states that only fully vaccinated visitors are allowed access into malls. High-risk groups such as pregnant women, those below 12 and those above 70 are strictly prohibited from entering shopping centers. (coconuts.co)

Foreigners Disobeying Bali’s COVID Rules Bali’s Deputy-Governor Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardana Sukawati (Cok Ace) told RadarBali.com that he frequently receives reports from Provincial Enforcement Teams (Satpol PPBali) regarding undisciplined and scofflaw behavior committed by foreigners living on the Island. The badly behaving foreigners allegedly fail to follow health protocols by refusing to wear facemasks in public places and holding gatherings in enclosed areas where attendees freely gather without masks. The wearing of masks in public and controls on public gatherings are mandated under Bali’s Provincial antiCOVID-19 regulations. The Deputy-Governor’s comments on foreigners errantly behaving were made during an audience at his office, presided over by the Provincial Chief of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, Jamaruli Manihuruk, on Monday, 06 September 2021, Cok Ace told the meeting that he was aware that many foreigners still violated Bali’s health protocols, damaging Bali’s
image and impeding the Island’s efforts to control the spread of COVID-19. “What’s more, (this has happened when) The Central Government recently praised Bali for successfully lowering the number of new cases and the number of deaths (related to COVID-19). Don’t let this achievement be sullied because of people acting irresponsibly,” said the DeputyGovernor. The Deputy-Governor said that the Satpol-PP-Bali took firm administrative action against foreigners and locals failing to follow health protocols, including requiring people to undergo Swab tests for COVID-19. Adding: “But, clearly, these measures are insufficient, and we have also cooperated with the Ministry of Justice to deport the foreigners.” The Head of the Justice Ministry office in Bali said his staff had been assisted in enforcing health protocols involving foreign visitors by the Satpol-PP. “In this regard, those of us from the Bali Provincial Office of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights request the

continuing support of the DeputyGovernor to undertake the supervision and monitoring of foreigners, such as operations to enforce health protocols,” said Jamaruli Manihuruk. Jamaruli Manihuruk said he hoped routine supervision and monitoring of foreigners in Bali compelling them to follow health protocols would continue. In turn, this will cause the public to follow health rules obediently. He predicted that the current situation regarding COVID-19 would continue to improve and pave the way for Bali to reopen to international tourism. The meeting held in the DeputyGovernor’s office was also attended by the Chief of Satpol-PP-Bali Dewa Nyoman Rai Dharmadi, the Head of the Bali Provincial Tourism Service I Putu Astawa, the Head of the Immigration Division Amrizal, and the Head of the Ngurah Rai Immigration Office Surya Mataram.
