The Batu Bolong Beach area in Canggu, Badung, is now the focus of police attention in efforts to maintain security stability. As an international tourist destination busy until late at night, the high mobility in this area demands the preparedness of officers to ensure Badung's image as a safe destination is maintained.
The Badung Police Sat Samapta through the Turjawali Unit routinely conducts the "Blue Light Patrol" as part of the Enhanced Routine Activities (KRYD). Led by Head of Samapta Unit, Police Commissioner Assistant (AKP) Made Mangku Bunciana, police personnel combed vulnerable points along the Canggu route on early Monday to minimize the potential for street crime, thuggery, and theft.
During the patrol, officers not only conducted visual surveillance from patrol vehicles but also established persuasive communication with security guards at nightlife venues. This dialogic step was taken to strengthen collaboration in monitoring the situation on the ground and to ensure a swift response to potential security disturbances that might arise in the tourism business environment.
AKP Made Mangku Bunciana emphasized that the police presence in the community is a manifestation of the Badung Police's commitment to providing a sense of safety for tourists. He urged all elements of society, business managers, and visitors to remain vigilant and proactively report any suspicious activities to the authorities.
Until the end of the patrol, the Batu Bolong Beach area was reported to remain conducive and under control. The synergy between the police and the public is expected to remain solid to create an orderly and comfortable tourism ecosystem for all visitors within the jurisdiction of the Badung Police.
