Southern Bali is already experiencing overdevelopment and an oversupply of accommodation. Yet this is where a proposed new mega resort may go ahead if the government cannot be persuaded to turn down proposals.<\/p>\n<p>The site, Benoa Bay, is home to local communities who earn their living from environmentally friendly occupations, from fishing to small scale tourism activities. These are now under threat, along with the larger marine and coastal environment. A huge mass movement is now gearing up to challenge the proposal but wants global support to help change government minds.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign is led by ForBALI (www.facebook.com\/forbali13\/), an alliance of civil society organisations, students, NGOs, artists, youth , musicians, academics and individuals who care about the environment and have confidence that the Gulf Reclamation Benoa Bali proposal is a destructive policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Campaigners resisting a major new tourism development in Bali are calling for support from around the world. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":336,"featured_media":34277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3155],"tags":[3096],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Save Bali\u2019s Benoa Bay!<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Campaigners resisting a major new tourism development in Bali are calling for support from around the world.
