DENPASAR - Deputy Governor of Bali Tjok Oka Artha Ardhana Sukawati said that the regional regulation (perda) that regulates the contribution of foreign tourists (tourists) can be a solution for fishermen.
In the Bali Fishermen Association (HNSI) Regional Working Meeting, the Deputy Governor who is familiarly called Cok Ace said that the Bali Regional Regulation Number 1 of 2023 concerning the contribution of tourists to the protection of Bali's nature and culture can protect the sustainability of the sea and fishermen, especially now that the government has initiated levies for every foreign tourist who comes.
"Nowastungkara already has a regional regulation on the contribution of tourists, which can later also be used to prosper in the future as supporters of Balinese culture," he said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, July 31.
According to him, currently the welfare of fishermen is still lacking, even though in the past before getting to know tourism, the life of the people of the Island of the Gods was colored by three basic livelihoods, namely farmers, traders, and fishermen, or called Bendega.
The three livelihoods are said to be interrelated and create local culture and wisdom in Bali, but among the three, the welfare of fishermen is considered at least.
Cok Ace said the fishermen were still not paying attention because the regulations governing the Bali Regional Regulation Number 11 of 2017 concerning Bendega had not been maximized and well socialized.
"Of the three livelihoods of farmers, traders, the most neglected bendega," he said.

In addition, the rampant function of coastal land, which used to be a fishermen's settlement, has now shifted a lot to the tourism industry, so fishermen have also switched their professions to other professions because they have lost their land.
Even so, fishermen are asked to continue to carry out their obligations to take care of the sagara temple, even better if they cooperate with other parties such as the tourism industry around the coast.
