Tempo Interactive reports that steps are underway that will preserve certain areas of Bali as perpetual agricultural lands, blocking the way for the subject lands to be diverted to other non-agricultural pursuits.
In a move intended to preserve the nature and culture of Bali, the regional decree that would preserve in perpetuity certain areas of Bali for agriculture was approved by the Provincial House of Representatives on August 25, 2009.
Bali Governor Made Pastika hopes the Home Ministry would quickly ratify the measure, saying the new regulation reflected the aspirations of the Balinese people.
