The support is needed to develop arts and culture through holistic research on various cultural aspects which needs adequate amounts of funds, the chairman of the congress`s formulating team Prof Dr Wayan Dibia said here Tuesday.
He said the support was needed in an effort to make arts and culture factors attracting tourists to Bali.
The support should be followed by sustainable conservation of Bali`s arts and culture in an effort to soon materialize them (the province`s arts and culture) as a world cultural heritage, he said.
The effort should also be accompanied by collective and individual guidance on intellectual property rights including copy rights in an effort to protect the regional culture, he said.
Dibia who is a lecturer at the Indonesian Arts Institute in Denpasar said Bali`s arts and culture needed "diplommats" at national and internnational levels.
Another effort needed to develop the province`s arts and culture was the holding of the Balinese Culture Congress once in five years to prepare a strategy to develop and maintain the resort island`s arts and culture.
Bali has a local philosophy known as Tri Hita Karana meaning harmonious relations among human beings, between man and environment and God as a foundation of the province`s development programs, he said. (*)
