Rajas of Gianyar
Ida Anak Agung Gde Agung (1921–1999)
Condotels and Apartments ban
Although Badung Regency, Denpasar and Gianyar Regency are the three richest regions in Bali and most of their wealth comes from tourism, in February 2012 Gianyar Regency officially banned the construction of new increasingly popular condominium hotels (condotels) and apartment facilities. Unlike the Badung Regency and Denpasar where condotels and apartments remain in high demand for tourist developers and investors, Gianyar Regency wants to protect local entrepreneurs.[4]
Administration
The regency is divided into seven districts (kecamatan), listed below with their 2010 Census populations:[5]
Sukawati 110,429
Blahbatuh 65,875- Gianyar 86,843
Tampaksiring 45,818
Ubud 69,323
Tegallalang 50,325
Payangan 41,164
Gianyar Regency's civil registry recorded 480,447 residents by religion, in April 2012, 97.8% Hindu.[6]
Keramas Beach
Black sandy beach in Keramas Beach, Blahbatuh district has hosted international surfing competitions in the last couple of years with limited facilities such as uneven road and no parking lots. On June 18–29, 2013, Keramas Beach was on the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP)'s 2013 Men's World Champhionship Tour schedule as the Oakley Bali Pro.[7][8]
Sports
In football, Bali is home to the football club Bali United, which plays in the Liga 1.
The team was relocated from Samarinda, East Kalimantan, to Gianyar, Bali. Harbiansyah Hanafiah, the main commissioner of Bali United, explained that he did the name change and moved the homebase to Bali because there were no representatives from Bali in the highest football tier in Indonesia.[9] Another reason was that local fans in Samarinda prefer to support Pusamania Borneo F.C. more than Persisam.
