it's a statement.
You state that tourist figures were back after 2 years...was that two years after the SC or two years after Jimbaran/Kuta Sq ??
The fact is that for at least 6 years numbers were down due to terrorist attacks and prices reflected that.
Asian figures are deceptive, because average stay time per arrival is much shorter than Aussie/Euro, and spending patterns different.
Now numbers are up, and PRESTO! prices are up.
No long bow in that.....it's called supply and demand.
