JAKARTA - The Probolinggo administration in East Java is urging tourists to avoid using automatic motorbikes when visiting the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (TNBTS), citing safety risks amid frequent accidents on the treacherous roads leading to the popular mountain destination.
The warning was issued ahead of the four-day long weekend surrounding the Idul Adha holiday on June 6, as the local authorities prepared for an influx of tourists to the area.
