Immigration at Bali’s Ngurah Rai International airport has rejected 21 foreign nationals from entering Indonesia via Denpasar, so far this year.

This fun stat was announced by Immigration Director General Ronny F. Sompie on Saturday.

The data is from January 2017 to Feb. 17, 2017, according to Tribun Bali.

Sompie also shared the amount of foreigners blocked from Indonesia at other airports: Jakarta, 92; Batam, 31; Medan, 25; and Bandung, 6.

In addition to foreigners not getting let in, a significant number of Indonesians were likewise not permitted to leave the country, because of invalid or incomplete travel documentation, says Sompie. Immigration recorded 133 Indonesians as having been denied departure from the country so far this year, reported Tribun.
