334-Ha Bali Cultural Center at Gunaksa Targets 2025 Completion

SEM A RAPURA, BALI — 2August 2025 — Santi Capital today highlighted the momentum behind the Bali Cultural Center (Pusat Kebudayaan Bali) in Gunaksa, Klungkung—a 334-hectare provincial project targeted for completion in 2025 with an estimated Rp 2.5 trillion budget.

The development is designed as an integrated cultural, education, conservation, recreation and creative-economy hub, built on green, sustainable and smart, IT-enabled principles to accelerate equitable growth across East Bali.

“PKB Gunaksa is not just a larger than a precinct it’s a platform for Bali’s next decade of cultural and economic value creation,” said Lukas James. “By pairing heritage with modern infrastructure and smart operations, we expect higher local capture and durable employment.”

The project aligns with Klungkung’s 2025 priorities—public-service infrastructure, human-capital development, poverty reduction via pro-growth policy, and bureaucracy reform—and Bali Province priorities spanning agriculture, marine, MSME/IKM, tourism, education/health, environment, infrastructure, and governance.

Why it matters:

• Demand fundamentals: Nusa Penida is Klungkung’s largest tourism engine, with accommodation stock rising from 342 to 633 units (2018–2022) as visitation rebounds—an indicator of sustained private investment appetite around the corridor.

• Spillover effects: PKB is explicitly planned to generate a multiplier effect for East Bali, anchoring events, creative industries, and quality tourism.

• Policy tailwinds: The 2025 RKPD emphasises infrastructure, human capital, environment, and governance—de-risking operations for compliant, ESG-aligned projects.
