Tourism managers Tanah Lot, Tabanan regency, Bali, targeting a number of tourists visiting the region in 2013, as many as two million people, up from 1.75 million the previous year.




"We do not target a large number of visitors despite the realization of the possibility is always more of a target," said Ketut Toya Adnyana, Tanah Lot DTW manager, when contacted from Denpasar, Monday (14/01/2013).

He said in 2012 it targets 1.75 million people visit but its realization reached 2.57 million people. "We purposely did not set a target higher this year because there are a variety of considerations," he said.

One consideration is to anticipate the political situation this year because it will be held gubernatorial elections (Pilgub) in Bali.

In addition to the issue of rising fuel oil (BBM), is also sufficient influence to set the target visitors.

Business plan DTW Tanah Lot will extend the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 19:00 pm visit from initially be until the evening. "The plan was we examine the benefits and disadvantages, if it would soon be applied. Hope we can be implemented by 2013," said Adnyana.
