Both these aspects will improve the lives of the people of Bali. “Many of the positive impact brought about by the arrival of Obama. For example, when Julia Robert’s visited Bali, the international world just got to know more about Bali, particularly Ubud. Moreover, President Obama visit stimulate the economy of Bali,” said Kerthayasa who is also well known in Puri Ubud community.
