DENPASAR - Head of the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in Bali, Jamaruli Manihuruk, said that there was no information on the exodus of Japanese citizens leaving Bali. The Japanese government had previously asked its citizens to leave Indonesia amid the surge in COVID-19.
"According to existing data, in Bali there are 4,180 Japanese citizens in Bali. But at this time we have no news whether they really left Bali," said Jamarul in Denpasar, Thursday, July 15.
According to him, there are no regular flights from Japan to Bali via I Gusti Ngurah Rai Airport. Even if a Japanese citizen leaves Bali, his departure will be recorded at the Jakarta Immigration Office.
"So, if a Japanese citizen leaves Bali, it will not be recorded at the Bali immigration. Because they will take a domestic flight to Jakarta, it will be recorded in Jakarta. That is for Japanese citizens who are expected to leave Indonesian territory," said Jamaruli .
Previously, quoted from NHK, in the period from June 26 to July 12, 2021, 9 Japanese citizens died due to contracting COVID-19. The information was obtained from the Japanese Embassy in Indonesia.
The Japanese embassy said the emergency had become the basis for several Japanese companies to bring back their citizens with their families. A Japanese company has ordered a plane to evacuate its citizens back on Wednesday, July 14.
