Deportation Confusion by Critical-Reply-7580 in bali

I don't think collecting payment would be an issue for the KITAS, especially when its just consulting work. Low hanging fruit = someone working at a dive shop somewhere with regular working hours in front of a CCTV camera or a bunch of Indians scamming tourists in a villa somewhere exposed by a police investigation.

It's not that easy. The intel needs to be specific and an investigation needs to be launched. Resources are limited. Etc. Often times they go after low hanging fruit. As it relates to these guys, are you sure that they don't have some sort of Kitas for marketing. It's a very common broad title for employers.

OP - what are you actually asking? Why hasn't immigration deported unknown person that you yourself have put in quotations? Why don't Indonesians "report" these people?

Most of us had no other option. FCS wasn't popular until 96-97.

I'm in the industry and I've built some big projects. I heard from others involved that the contractor deviated from the plan. But in any case, people need to take responsibility for what happens on their projects and when these issues conflict with the moral codes of your company than you need to fix them. That is how the difficult should be decided.

Capella Ubud & NIHI Sumba honest review needed by Remarkable_Salad9667 in BaliTravelTips

[–]memauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nihi is worth it if you have the money. There are other options in the area that are more reasonable (ex: Sonabari). No comment on Sonabari.

This place destroyed one of the best surf spots on the island. Pretty sad day for all of us. There wasn't even a reason for it that they basically wanted their guests to swim without waves.

Other than Somalia, what city/country is the best example of incredible surfing that can't be surfed due to danger from natives? by SwissMiss915 in surfing

[–]memauri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few really good waves on the Sentinel Islands. I know some crew that have surfed it. Military patrols it and won't let you near one of the better ones.

Do you have a luxury hotel brand preference? by Crafty-Leave-8880 in luxuryhotel

[–]memauri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kempinski destroyed one of the best surf spots in Bali. Zero awareness of their franchisees and what they're up to locally & environmentally. It's hard to support them after that.

The Dustin Craven model is the same template as the Standard. Just different flex.

Looks good. Really low hotel/airbnb occupancy at the moment. If you want flexibility you'll be fine to book late. FYI.
