Perpetrators of business tourism in protest because the regency of
Bangli Bangli raise rates or the price of tickets in a number of
attractions without preceded by socialization.
"The increase in tariffs to increase revenue is a good step, there should be socialization," said Chairman of the DPC PHRI I Ketut Putra Bangli Bangli Nata on Wednesday (10/11/2010). He gave the example of the rate increase in the tourist areas in the district of Kintamani that initially only Rp 3,300 per traveler, this time the ticket price to Rp 10,000 per person . Therefore, Putra many get complaints from tourists, including a number of travel agents. Even a number of travel agents threatened to boycott the Kintamani tourism area and would divert tourists to other places, such as in Bedugul Tabanan. "I just knew that if rates rose after a protest and complaint," he said. According to Putra , according to initial conditions, if it brings guests a group of 10 people, when coming to Kintamani, admission fee they pay is Rp 30,000. "However, after the counter inside, it turns out rate offered is USD 100,000. Cash only surprised it makes the perpetrator of tourism," he said. He argues that the increase in ticket prices is something that is fair, but should be done in proceeds. "Nothing can compare with the cost of tariffs between Bangli Tanah Lot, for example," he said. The reason Putra , it's about service and convenience for tourists. "Maybe the cost of food per person outside Kintamani tourists are hundreds of thousands or about 20 U.S. dollars. However, in the tourist area of Kintamani selling at four dollars alone is very difficult," he added. |
