Denpasar (Antara Bali) - Bali Police department will deploy at least 1,300 personnel to ensure security at the 5th Annual Meeting of Bali Democracy Forum (BDF), to be held in Nusa Dua, Bali on November 8-9.

"We will cooperate with the National Police and deploy about 1,300 personnel to secure the event," the Head of Bali Police Public Relations, Police Commissioner Hariadi, said here on Wednesday.

He stated that the event will be attended by 15 Asian countries. However, the police are still not sure how many heads of state will attend the annual forum.

"Bali police is also ready to step up security if necessary," Hariadi said.  
   
"We are optimistic that we can guarantee security at this event, since we managed to do a good job at the Bali bombing commemoration event in October," he added.

Hariadi stated that the bombing incident in Poso, Central Sulawesi, on October 22, will not affect the security of Bali because both places have different social conditions.(IGT/T007)
