BALI – Travellers are flocking back to Bali, and the Balinese are glad to breathe easy again. One of them is Mr I Komang Anugrah, 27, my guide on an e-bike tour in Ubud.
He left high school to work as a waiter at a “resto” (local slang for “restaurant”) for a year, then joined a cruise ship for better income. After two years, he missed his family and returned home, tilling the land. But farming meant only subsistence earnings.
