Bali newsBali4 min read
The Regional Office of the National Land Agency BPN in Bali Province is implementing electronic land certificates to enhance land rights protection and reduce land mafia activities. Hardiansyah, Head of the Dispute Control and Handling Division of the BPN Bali Provincial Office, stated that the electronic system provides a more rigorous monitoring mechanism for land data changes. Every process requires a team and multiple verification and supervision stages, creating a traceable digital record. This system aims to increase legal certainty for the community, reduce the risk of physical document loss or damage, and improve transparency in land services. While challenges like data migration and public education exist, the government is promoting electronic certificates to modernize land services, boost efficiency, and strengthen public trust in land administration.

Ngurah Rai Immigration arrests Australian Interpol fugitive attempting to leave Bali with forged passport
Ngurah Rai Immigration Office in Bali arrested Australian Interpol fugitive AP on June 6, 2026, at I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport. AP, wanted on drug-related charges, attempted to depart Indonesia using a forged passport belonging to a Brazilian citizen. Immigration officers intercepted AP as he was preparing to board a private flight to Maputo, Mozambique, with three other individuals and three crew members. Despite initial authorization for the other passengers, all boarded the aircraft without permission. Immigration coordinated with airport authorities to halt the flight, and AP was found hiding in the lavatory after the aircraft returned to the terminal. The 55-year-old AP is identified as an influential figure in a Transnational Serious Organized Crime network and a leading member of a motorcycle gang, suspected of large-scale narcotics smuggling into Australia. The Ngurah Rai Immigration Office is coordinating with the Narcotics Crime Directorate and the National Police's International Relations Division, while the Directorate General of Customs and Excise inspected the aircraft. AP has been issued a lifetime ban from entering Indonesia and deported to Australia to face legal proceedings.
