Warning against Illegal villa's

The Bali Villa Association (BVA) is calling on the government to introduce minimum standards for security for commercial villas operation on the Island. The chairman of the BVA, made the call via the press, saying government supervision of safety and security over Bali’s large commercial villa industry was long past due. Part of the problem is the large number of illegal villas operating with little or no control that represents a latent threat to the reputation of the villa industry and the Island's tourism industry. The legal villas grouped together in the BVA are professionally managed and able to compete with 4 and 5-star hotels in Bali. He also issued a call for joint and decisive action by BVA members and the government against illegal villas. The BVA is committed to licensing and certification programs encompassing security, safety, manpower and management in order to protect the reputation of Bali’s villa industry and the Island’s reputation as an international tourism industry.
