Bali
Tropic Resort & Spa
‘Foster Parent’ of Sangeh
Tourist Object
Within
the next few months, the Sangeh Ecotourism
object will be conjured up by Bali Tropic
Resort & Spa into an attractive and
clean destination. The garden will be
better arranged and many kinds of plants
will be appended. In the meantime, the
vacant land will be cultivated with local
plants so its climate will be cooler and
purer. By doing so, the presence of these
new plants will not be bizarre to dwelling
monkeys of this dense nutmeg forest. This
was revealed on the socialization happening
held by Bali Tropic Resort & Spa serving
as the foster parent of Sangeh Ecotourism
Object at the beginning of this October.
Sangeh is an ecotourism object relying
on some tropical animals like monkeys,
civets and snakes, as well as forest as
its attraction. It is situated at Sangeh
Village, Abiansemal—Badung or some
21 km north of Denpasar. It does not only
draw the visits of foreign tourists but
also domestic ones.
Nyoman Aryadana, Executive Assistant Manager
of Bali Tropic Resort & Spa says that
as a foster parent concerned about the
environment, his party will start the
programme by upgrading the landscaping
at the entrance gate and the south and
west areas. Pavements that are now looking
all washed-up, will also be restored so
it will make the visitors easier to get
to location.
Improvement is not only undertaken for
its physical property, but also for the
competence of its human resources, particularly
the cleaning service staff will be trained
at the hotel. By doing, so the cleanliness
enjoyed by visitors in hotels will also
be found at Sangeh. "We will repair
all tools for toilet cleaning and other
mopping implements so they will be able
to perform their job thoroughly,"
he says.
Observed, his party will renovate the
depraved toilets totally. Even, the squatting
closet will be replaced with sitting closet
in compliance with international standards.
Eddy Soetjahyo (Andy), Communications
Manager of Bali Tropic Resort & Spa
added that to better promote the Sangeh
object, having a total extent of 13,969
hectares, his party will take part in
the promotions. It will be accomplished
by distributing posters, brochures and
information to every guest staying at
Bali Tropic Resort & Spa. "We
will extensively inform them about the
Sangeh tourist object," he affirms.
In the meantime, Ida Bagus Dipayana, Chief
of Sangeh Customary Village accompanied
by I Made Sumohon, Operation Head of Sangeh
tourist object says that there will be
three sections that badly needs renovation.
First, the space layout related to landscaping
restoration; secondly, transformation
management and thirdly, the promotions.
"Current promotions are inadequate
and we don’t know what to do to
introduce Sangeh. Hopefully, Bali Tropic
can extend significant assistance to reach
the objective," he expects.
He also explained that the funds available
to restore this tourist object are limited.
Though the income obtained from the selling
of entrance tickets is mostly allocated
for the object, it does not suffice as
there are too many places needing mending.
"The assistance of Bali Tropic is
highly welcome and we thank them very
much for this," he says while adding
that from the proceeds of ticket selling
is 50% allocated for the object, 25% for
the operator and another 25% for the regional
government of Badung. (BTN/015)
