He's more likely to be ripped off/scammed in Bali than other Asian countries he's been to so far. Though I've only been to a couple of Asian destinations, (Singapore Malaysia Thailand Borneo Java Viet Nam and Cambodia) I'm with Dazza on this one. I did have to be more on the alert in Bali than elsewhere re scams. Also they've got increasingly more aggressive since I was there from what I've been reading on this forum over the past few years.
Still, hope it goes well for him this time. Bali is a beautiful place.
