Ubud hoteliers green and generous
UBUD – The Ubud Hotels Association (UHA) in Bali is promoting Ubud as a green destination with a series of charitable and environmental activities.
The UHA is a non-profit, non-government organisation comprised primarily of hoteliers and allied members who actively service the hospitality industry.
Ramia Adnyana, chairman of UHA, says, “Ubud is surrounded by most of the things that bring people to Bali – scenic rice fields, small villages, art and craft communities, ancient temples, palaces, rivers, museums, and a traditional market.
“These are all key attractions that must be well maintained and preserved.
“Our endeavour is to highlight Ubud not only as a cultural destination but also as an exemplary green destination.â€
Last Friday the UHA visited the humanitarian charity known as Yayasan Senyum, the Smile Foundation of Bali, which helps people with craniofacial disabilities by facilitating operations for cleft lips and palates.
The ‘Smile Shop’ in Ubud provides a source of income for the foundation through the sale of second-hand goods and old stock from local businesses.
The UHA will donate good quality linen and towels as well as foodstuffs.
On September 8, the UHA will be hosting a seminar at the Convention House at Royal Pita Maha Resort to be followed by a cocktail party to celebrate the UHA’s anniversary.
