ENPASAR: Bali's creative industry might be the most developed in Indonesia, but still lags behind those of countries such as China, France and Singapore for not yet applying modern technology.

"Our creative industry is peanuts because it still relies on cultural arts and crafts," A. Deni Daruri, president director of the Center for Banking Crisis, said Saturday.

"The creative industry here has yet to create spectacular works based on modern technology."

Deni, as reported by Antara news agency, said the development of an industry based on creativity should be supported by skilled human resources, advanced technology and capital, in addition to socio-cultural factors.

He pointed out China, which he said had managed to stage spectacular shows in the air using advanced technology such as those showcased at the opening of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
