comment is that once again an Australian journalist is doing the sensationalism rubbish.
Hotel vacancies are not soaring!
My own place in Sanur, my cobber's place in Sanur and our other mates' places in Sanur, Medewi and Gili Meno have just one vacant room between them at this moment.(remember this is "low" season.)
We all have numerous bookings during the coming months.

If the journalist looked at the ownership of the hotels he/she mentioned then maybe he/she would understand a bit more.

Have a look at the money that journalists cost people when they wrote all of the other cr@p just before Christmas. They actually frightened people so much that they cancelled trips to this beautiful island.
Then someone got hold of a half baked rabies story and made that into a big deal.
Just because it is written in a newspaper does not make it fact.
Now this journalistic clown has chosen to take a comment about a couple of big hotels and turn it into comments about the whole of Bali.
Stavros, you have not offended me in any way but the journalist who wrote the original article has annoyed me a tad. (or maybe you would have already guessed that).
