"We are investigating, maybe tomorrow we will invite him because yesterday he was still closed (money changer). We will check the permit first, if there is no permit, we will coordinate with the relevant agencies, so that it will be closed," said Tegallalang Police Chief AKP I Ketut Sudita when contacted, Wednesday, August 10.

In the video, a money changer employee counts money in front of foreign tourists. There is a male voice, an angry tour guide speaking in Balinese.

This incident occurred on Monday, August 8th. AKP Sudita said foreign tourists from South Korea exchanged 300 USD at an exchange rate of Rp. 14,875 per dollar.

However, during the process of exchanging money, the tour guide does not come directly with the tourists. After continuing the trip to Aloha Swing, this foreign tourist realized that the rupiah from the exchange at the money changer was lacking.

The amount of money that should be received by guests is IDR 4,462,500. However, what foreign tourists receive is the difference or less than Rp. 1 million rupiah from the total money that should be received.
