This can be caused by various factors including knowledge, understanding, belief and so on.

In 2018 the Bali governor election brought 2 (two) pairs of candidates, namely I Wayan Koster & Tjokorda Oka Artha Ardana Sukawati who were promoted by the PDIP, Hanura, PKPI, PAN and I.B parties. Rai Dharmawijaya Mantra & I Ketut Sudikerta promoted by Golkar, Democrats, Nasdem, Gerindra. The issue of SARA is something that is inherent in the practice of identity politics. This situation certainly cannot be separated from the Balinese Muslim community whose characters are increasingly diverse.
