| Subject: Thanks to statists, Bali running out of alcohol Sat Aug 22, 2009 8:49 pm | |
| Believe it or not, Bali could be running out of high-quality booze after the re-elected Indonesian Government started clamping down on illegal alcohol importation.
Late last month, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono was voted in for a second term as Indonesian president, and with that has come a tightening of the country's liquor importation laws.
According to the Australia-Indonesia Business Council, about 90 per cent of all alcohol and wine has been coming into the country illegally to avoid the 200 per cent duties and taxes.
