Deputy Home Affairs Minister Bima Arya highlighted the need for enhanced collaboration between Bali, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), and East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) to manage food supply and control inflation. He noted that while these provinces have strong economic potential due to tourism, food production, and MSMEs, they face common challenges such as poor connectivity affecting logistics and production.

Bali Regional Secretary Dewa Indra added that the provinces rely on each other for food supplies, citing examples like NTB's role in producing shallots and garlic.
