Must readAn Australian tourist, Isabelle, nearly faced serious consequences in Bali for planning to bring her ADHD medication without proper documentation. Her partner alerted her to the strict Indonesian laws, which classify dexamphetamine, a common ADHD medication, as a Group 1 narcotic. Legal Nexus, an Indonesian law firm, states that penalties for unlawfully bringing narcotics into Indonesia can range from 20 years to life imprisonment, or even the death penalty. Isabelle ultimately traveled without her medication. Finder travel expert Angus Kidman noted that many travelers overlook medication rules, which can also affect travel insurance claims. The Embassy of Indonesia in Canberra advises travelers with prescription medication to carry a doctor's letter detailing their condition, medication, and dosage, along with copies of prescriptions and receipts. Medication should remain in original packaging, and only the quantity needed for the trip should be brought. A Sydney man, Michael William Petersen, was detained for five days in 2019 after arriving in Indonesia with ADHD medication but no supporting documents.
Must readBali Governor Wayan Koster is preparing a formal invitation for Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto to open the 48th Bali Arts Festival PKB-2026 on Saturday, June 13, 2026. Governor Koster discussed this with the Deputy Governor, hoping President Prabowo will have time to attend. The invitation coincides with President Prabowo's planned visit to Bali to discuss designating the province as an International Financial Center IFC. Governor Koster received a call from Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan regarding Bali's preparation as an IFC, a plan viewed favorably by the Provincial Government. Major business leaders from Dubai and Abu Dhabi have expressed interest in relocating to Bali, seeing it as a safe destination. The Provincial Government will discuss the IFC plans to ensure they benefit the region and its people. If President Prabowo cannot attend, the Bali Provincial Government will ensure the smooth operation of the month-long festival, which runs from June 13 to July 11, 2026, and is expected to feature 20,929 artists from 673 organizations. In such a case, the President may assign ministers to attend the opening.

The National Economic Council DEN is organizing a family office summit in Bali this July. DEN Chairman Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan stated that the summit follows President Prabowo Subianto's directive to accelerate the legal framework for an International Financial Center in Indonesia. Luhut anticipates potential capital inflows of several hundred billion US dollars, emphasizing the need for institutional digitalization and rebuilding investor confidence to attract offshore wealth. To compete with established financial hubs, Jakarta is proposing zero-tax incentives on funds initially deposited in Indonesia, with taxes applied only when the capital is deployed into domestic development projects. The government is also considering the partial adoption of common law principles to provide legal certainty for investors, a shift from Indonesia's civil law tradition. The Bali summit will be a key platform to present these regulatory changes to global wealth managers and sovereign investors.
