King Salman, who arrived in Jakarta on Wednesday along with 1,500 members of his entourage who are accompanying him during his month-long visit to several Asian countries, is set to spend five days in Bali, from March 4 to 9.

Not only a private car and private stairways, but the king has reportedly also brought along his private sofa and 80-inch television to be placed in the hotel room where he is set to stay, kompas.com has reported.

“The private stairways and the car have arrived in Bali. I was also informed that King Salman brought his Rp 17 billion [US$1,271,979] private sofa and his 80-inch television,” the chairman of Association of the Indonesia Tours and Travel Agencies, I Ketut Ardana, said on Wednesday.
