Both Marvel Cinematic Universe actors Tom Holland and Chris Hemsworth were far from home recently when both were spotted in Bali.
Avid Spider-Man fans first learned about 22-year-old English actor Tom’s visit to the Indonesian Island when he uploaded a video of himself on Twitter. The video promoted his ongoing fan competition and featured a quick mention of being en-route to Bali.
The Bali government is making changes to the way hotels do business in Bali. Mangku Pastika, who is the Bali Governor, has said he is ready to create new regulations for the hotels relating to hotel rate standards, as a way to control the out of control growth of Bali’s tourism accommodations. “If they want to sell room with more expensive or cheaper price, they can, but they have to pay 10 percent from the standard rate,” he said.
Pastika explains that the hotel rate standard policy will be an assertive action that has been constructed to respond to the Bali hotel construction boom and the incredible competition that had the potential to create a tourism image that Bali was a cheap place to visit.
“We will compile the governor regulation after getting recommendations from Indonesia Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI) Bali, so that the regional government just needs to collect the 10 percent tax. The only problem is whether PHRI is brave enough, but I am,” Pastika said.
