The Kuta bomb that touching happened in October 2002, bashed without the Balinese pardon and the world of his tour.
The modern Balinese history showed that without the occurrence of the tragedy although, the impact of tourism was increasingly flowing in the other emergence of excesses that not increased the level of the life but precisely influence the quality of the social life and the Balinese environment
With his endurance and his creativity that extraordinary high as being pointed out by his history, Pringle optimistic that Bali will always be able to rise with the note, when the awareness of the history and Balinese's culture as part of his asset still was continuing to be maintained.

Thinking that was based by the upper concern the Kuta bomb, Bali, in the last three years of course the part most valuable from Pringle discussions and to meditation most was relevant to Bali after second bomb.

These discussions were revealed clearly and explicitly in the chapter 10 Bali the Age 21: the New Challenge including Terrorism, as well as the end chapter of Some Cover Thinking (the matter 227-230).

The look method that was offered by Pringle in his book clear will make Hanna's argumentation become obsolete appearance.

However like that, actually Hanna's book also still was relevant to several reasons.

When rising was the classic source spoke England the only one reveal the Balinese past that long fully details and nuances.

Possibly did not have even one issues about Bali after that that neglectful reconcile him?

Two famous anthropologists, Clifford Geertz and James A the Boom, made use of information and Hanna's views for their monumental research that afterwards the day was part of the current dissemination our knowledge would Bali.

Although afterwards also was unproven, Hanna's efforts expressed the concern through the debate ”culture versus tourism” for the Balinese future in a manner indirectly became the inspiration that made us aware so that always questioned while look for the best solution for the Balinese problem other that increasingly the day increasingly the complex, that including being the emergence of the terrorism threat in Bali.

Must be remembered that the publication of the Pringle book with all the expressions, the new element, and the concern would the Balinese future that was based on essence of the culture and the history him was part of the synthesis of the knowledge tradition that in part was pioneered by Hanna.

That was the reason Hanna's book was regarded as latest by the work of the standard that still often must be viewed by the Balinese expert even.

When Hanna gave Balinese history bases classic him that in the eyes of Bali clear pride assets were valuable, the Pringle book that apparently more could inspire us for the search for accurate methods how actually brought the Balinese future that was based by front problems of the appearance eyes more real in the globalisation era.

They who had an interest in building Bali and wanting to take part in being involved give the Balinese history direction that took sides with the community's Balinese goodness in the future apparently must consider well Hanna's thinking and Pringle that most recorded in the newest issue about Bali.
