The Indonesia Hotel General Managers (IHGM) Association, a grouping of general managers from hotels and villas in Bali, organized a fun bike event last Saturday.

Starting from Padma Resort Ubud, the 140 participants enjoyed the fresh air and scenic countryside as they escaped from the hustle of urban areas.

Clad in event T-shirts, they traversed the hilly roads, riding past beautiful green rice fields as they took Ubud'€™s less beaten tracks.

Chairman of the Indonesian Hotels and Restaurants Association, Tjokorda Artha Ardana Sukawati, also took part in the event and gave a short speech before commencing the bicycle trip.

As the participants finished back at Padma Resort Ubud, they rested while mingling with fellow general managers, fostering good communications and the relationships needed to contribute to an improved hospitality industry on the island.

The team had lunch together and watched the winners receive their door prizes. The highlight of the event was when the hospitality leaders handed over a donation to the representative of state elementary school SD2 Puhu, located in Puhu village, Payangan.

This is the first such social event held by the association, which intends to foster a spirit of togetherness and tolerance and hold similar events regularly in the future to help the needy on the island.

The IHGM was established by a group of hotel and villa general managers in Bali and aims to establish an association that will be actively involved in supporting disadvantaged members of the community.

In addition to the social mission, the group also wishes to contribute to tourism development by working together with other associations, as well as with the government, to solve various problems facing the industry.
