Te dilemma o1 tourism on natural and cultural survival o1 Bali as been
1eared by scolars since te 1360s'
)uring tis Bali Tourism connotes eCternal intervention: in te )utc
colonial era and a and1ul o1 oter 1oreigners8 and at te time o1
independence te central government Dassisted by local bureaucratsE !it
large investors outside Bali' 9ocal people and teir culture is seen as a mere
obHect or commodity: provider-a spectacle o1 cultural attractions8 and service
providers' Planning and management is not a portion o1 local involvement'
Even no! tese patterns is still running' 9atest eCample is te clearing o1

Tere@s no Juestion tat until recently te economic blessings o1 tourism to
Bali8 altoug uneven because tere is a small group o1 local people !o get
large portions' But in general8 because te multiplier e11ect8 increasing per

Increasing income per capita by te people o1 Bali are allocated to supporting
te needs o1 modern li1e8 suc as education8 transportation8 and oter modern

goods consumerism' #nd o1 course some are allocated to traditional rituals
and religious activities8 including per1orming arts are also in it' Te pattern o1
li1e in t!o !orlds is pressing te Balinese to al!ays ave money' Bali

12
&ean!ile8 te Balinese also !itnessed and 1elt te drastic canges going on
around tem8 especially since te tourism boom o1 te 13A0s' Te impacts
tat tey see is a cange in agricultural lands into tourist areas and
