In its implementation uphold a sense of solidarity and togetherness to build egalitarian values ​​for all citizens with the same service. But the objective reality and historical indicate that the Balinese social structure divided into traditional classes where each class has a class solidarity, prestige, and attributes that can be used as a class identity.
