“Cliff diving is an extreme sport that is very pure, fast and tense. Only the best athletes from all over the world can participate in the competition and they will consist of 12 female and 12 male athletes,” she said to balipost.com.

She hoped the regional government will support the event all they can, because the event will promote the beauty of Indonesia and Bali to the world.

Klungkung Regent, I Nyoman Suwirta, welcomed the plan and said that the local government will do everything to support the event. The Regent also hoped that the community will support and participate in the event to help promote these tourist destinations.
