BALI, Indonesia (The Adobo Chronicles, Bali Bureau) – Bali means heaven, and this place proves that heaven exists on Earth. Located in Indonesia, this famous island is a bucket list destination for many travelers, thanks to its incredible scenery, cultural significance, and sandy beaches.
But Bali, including its beaches, has a $40 million trash problem, and its tourism industry is struggling to clean it up.
Enter former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte who has miraculously cleaned up and restored Boracay island to its status as one if the world’s best resort destinations. During his term, he ordered the island closed for six months while the rehabilitation was underway. The rest is history.
Now, Bali wants to hire Duterte to deal with the trash problem, promising to gift him with a beach house mansion for his exclusive use in his retirement. The gift will be tax-free, and Duterte’s heirs will also be exempted from any inheritance fee.
No word yet if Duterte will accept the offer.
