Inp.polri.go.id - Denpasar. The Bali Regional Police has introduced Cakrawasi, an abbreviation of Cakra Pengawasan Orang Asing, a digital platform designed to enhance the monitoring and data collection of foreigners' activities across the island to mitigate illegal acts and visa violations.
"With this system, the risks of illegal activities, misuse of stay permits, and other legal violations can be minimized and mitigated immediately," said Bali Regional Police Chief Inspector General Daniel Adityajaya, in Denpasar on Saturday (14/3/2026), as quoted by antaranews.com.
The application serves as an integrated surveillance system that tracks the presence and movements of foreigners in real-time, supported by a centralized Command Center for data analysis.
Amidst a surge in international tourism, reaching 7.05 million visitors in 2025, the platform requires accommodation providers, including hotels and villas, to submit accurate data matching original passports. This initiative is designed to address security vulnerabilities, such as the use of multiple or forged passports by criminal actors.
