Balinese people

The Balinese population of 4 million, or 2.3% of Indonesia's population, is scattered over islands beyond Bali also. But most of the Balinese (3.6 million) can be found in the island of Bali, where they made up 95% of the island's population. (Most of the remainder consists of the descendants of Muslim Javanese men and Balinese women.) Another 350,000 of them can be found in the island of Lombok, where they make up a large fraction of the island's population. Large numbers can be found in the Municipality of Banyuwangi in Java, and smaller numbers can be found in Medan (3,000), Irian Jaya (5,000), Kalimantan, other parts of Java and Sumatra.
