After Obama, now Malaysian PM will vacation in Bali

News24xx.com - After former United States president Barack Obama’s have five-day vacation in  Bali, now the island will welcome of Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, whose holiday is scheduled to start on June 26 2017.


“According to the security plan we have received, there will be two [VVIP vacations in a week]: Obama and the Malaysian PM,” National Police spokesperson Brig. Gen. Rikwanto said on Saturday, June 24 2017.


Najib is scheduled to land in Bali on Monday afternoon and will reportedly stay in the luxurious St. Regis Resort in Nusa Dua, the same hotel where Saudi Arabian King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud stayed for a week during his visit to Indonesia in March.

The police, however, have yet to obtain information about the prime minister’s activities in Bali.

Rikwanto said he believed Obama and Najib’s presence would “enliven the Island of the Gods, which is already crowded by domestic and international tourists, especially during the Idul Fitri holiday.”

He added that police would cooperate with relevant stakeholders to provide security details for Najib during his stay in Bali.

“Security measures are meant to ensure both holidays run smoothly, so both VVIPs could enjoy their time here in Bali,” he said.
