Bali is currently the largest digital nomad hub in the world due to its unique combination of factors that attract remote workers worldwide, which – sometimes – lead to them giving up their life back home just to be in total freedom. This island is the kind of place where you could see yourself living long-term.
Bali provides a unique community for digital nomads that don’t exist in this form anywhere else in the world. It is a magnet for freelancers and those who took the chance to leave traditional society in favour of a life of spontaneity and independence. Remote work can sometimes be lonely. But that’s not the case when you are in Bali as you’re almost guaranteed to find like-minded people everywhere you go.
Take a Break Anytime and Enjoy the Nature
Whenever you want to take a quick break from your work, you can easily go out and enjoy the world-class beaches, stroll by the peaceful green rice terraces as far as the eye can see, take an adventure through the lush jungle, or climb a volcano. You could even head further into the sea and go snorkelling or scuba diving, and take your trip to the next level.
Just Need WiFi
Whether you’re only staying for a few days, or intend to live that digital nomad life for a while, you’ll find that Bali is incredibly convenient. As long as you’re in the built-up areas, you’ll find great WiFi that can stand strong with your favourite streaming services, and great places to work or stay.

Low Cost of Living
This idea makes sense that digital nomads would love to stay in paradise without breaking their piggy bank! You can easily find $1 food everywhere you go and a shared bed in a dorm for as little as $5 a night. For renting a scooter, it’s only $5 per day. Roughly, you’ll end up with $500 for an entire month. Now, how about that?
Visa Options for Digital Nomads in Bali
Currently, you can be a Digital Nomad in Bali with Tourist Visa, Single Entry Visa, Multiple Entry Visa, or Work and Stay Permit. However, Indonesia is trying to entice more remote workers to the country with a new digital nomad visa. This visa hopes to incentivise digital nomads to work from popular tourism destinations, such as Bali. Indonesia’s tourism minister, Sandiaga Uno, said that the new permit was part of a move away from sun seeker tourism towards a more sustainable model. So, fingers crossed!

You are a smart guy. No doubt you are aware that Bali, especially south Bali, is doomed. Confounded by its lack of direction, terrible planning, unabandoned greed and outdated educational system, not to mention its overarchingly archaic political system, it is clear that it ten short years, it will implode.
So my question is, if you, Johannes Ryno, were the president of Bali, what would you do to Make Bali Great Again?
Thanks for the feedback.
To answer your question, I’d be focus on infrastructure development and education.
