Founder and editor, Datum Bali
Verifying for Datum Bali since
- Indonesian entry regulations
- Official source verification
- Bali travel rules
Lorenzo Bruno founded Datum Bali and is responsible for everything it publishes. Every page on this site carries his name.
How a page gets here
Each page starts from the primary official source: the regulation, the decree, the operator's own text. Research and drafting are done with AI tools. Every page then goes through an adversarial fact audit that re-opens each cited source and tries to prove the page wrong, and a second audit after the corrections, because corrections introduce errors of their own. The full procedure is on the method page.
What the name commits to
A page signed here says what its sources say, and no more. When a source could not be opened, the page says so. When a fact goes stale, the page says that too, and past three times its re-verification deadline it leaves the index.
Found something wrong? Tell us. It gets corrected, and the change stays visible in the page's history.
