However, she was a little disappointed because it was raining and could not enjoy the atmosphere of Kuta Beach.

Lasyia admitted that she had only been to Kuta Beach twice. She also didn't know there was a rule in the Kuta area that it closed at 23:00 WITA.

"I don't know, but if there is a rule like that, it's already the new year at the hotel", she said.

Meanwhile, Putu Picky came all the way from Tabanan Regency, Bali also did not expect that it would be raining on Kuta Beach. However, she still chose Kuta Beach for New Year's Eve.

"Yes, I deliberately went to Kuta Beach because it is now the end of the year. I have always liked the atmosphere of Kuta Beach on New Year's Eve", he said.
