📡 iLOTA Bendungan Sidan Activation – Explore the Beauty of Bali’s Highlands on the Air!
On June 15th, 2025, the scenic highlands of Badung, Bali will come alive with the sound of HF signals as a group of amateur radio operators activates one of Bali’s newest strategic icons – Bendungan Sidan, under the program iLOTA (Lakes On The Air).
🌊 Bendungan Sidan – A Lake of Life in the Heart of Bali
Nestled at the intersection of Badung, Gianyar, and Bangli, Bendungan Sidan is more than a reservoir. It's a vital water source for over 1.3 million people, designed to support flood control, irrigation, clean energy, and future eco-tourism in Bali.
This activation brings attention to the natural and technological marvels of Bali’s inland region—where radio waves meet purpose and beauty.
