Transport Association condemns private villa

Posted on June 20, 2009

The head of the transport association said unless the government takes action against illegal tourist transport its members can stop the renewal of their permits from the vehicle.

The head of the Transport Association of Tourism (Pawiba), Bagus Soediana, BisnisBali said he deeply regretted the growing fleet of vehicles used unauthorized trading houses and hotels in Bali.

The rules established by the minister of transport specifically require that every tourist transport is officially approved for that purpose, a rule ignored by many hotels and chalets to maintain their own fleet of transport vehicles. A review conducted by the academy of tourism in Bali (STP) in 2007-2008 identified some 1,600 houses that worked on the island. According to an estimate of the two vehicles per villa, Pawiba estimated 2,300 illegal vehicles now running in Bali, a total that does not include the thousands more unauthorized transport operated by various hotels.

With only 900 vehicles placed on tourism in Bali, Soediana complained that the illegal operators to carriers empequeñecían legal in Bali.

Soediana emphasized that if the government continues taking no action against illegal transport operations are a real possibility that the 130 transport companies that are registered members of Pawiba reject Bali soon renew their vehicle licenses.

Soediana the 's complaint was agreed by Dharma Putra Eddy, chairman of the transportation agency Bali (Bali Organda DPD), which confirmed that many operators are offering chalet with travel transfers and unauthorized vehicles.

In the past, has led DPD Organda Bali inspections on the side of the road that have fished a number of illegal vehicles, with drivers coming down with the simple reminder soon arrange permits and licenses required.

To obtain the necessary licenses, chalets and hotels that want to operate the vehicle would need to request a tour of the operating permit (izin's usaha), a permit from the beginning (prinsip's izin) and a certificate of the vehicle (the UJI KIR ). Alternatively, the chalet and hotel operators can outsource their transportation needs with transportation companies that are members of authorized Pawiba.

The vehicle with more than 9 seats are now required to feel good Pawiba members. The vehicle used for tourism with less than 9 seats are typically positioned as part of the island of 's fleet of rental vehicles. Pawiba currently has about 900 buses in their books while there are 2500 registered rental vehicles operating in Bali.

Tourists using veihcles of unlicend do not have insurance coverage provided the vehicles and also does not address the possible inconvenience for the manufacture of land and to seek other transportation if your vehicle is caught in unauthorized check of the document the edge of the road.
