Hotels and restaurants `dump waste into the sea'

KLUNGKUNG: A number of hotels and restaurants operating on Lembongan Island in Klungkung regency are suspected of dumping waste into Semarapura Beach.

Klungkung Regent Tjok Gede Agung expressed concern over these allegations.

"These acts would certainly threaten marine life," he was quoted as saying by the Bali Post daily on a visit to Nusa Penida and Lembongan islands.

Agung said he frequently pressed hotel and restaurant operators to abide by environmental regulations. - JP
