The number of Chinese tourists who visited Bali in the first 10 months of 2007 was more than 69,400 or up 131 percent from the same period last year, a tourism operator said.
The figure put China in the sixth place after Japan, Australia, Taiwan, South Korea and Malaysia in terms of foreign tourists visiting the resort island, Tjok Gde Agung said here Tuesday.
Tjok said he was pleased with the rising number of Chinese tourists visiting Bali and asked the government and tourism operators to work hard to attract more Chinese tourists.
Around 34 million Chinese made overseas trips every year and the figure continued to increase from year to year, he said.
This meant that less than 0.1 percent of Chinese tourists visited Bali, he said.
