In Reply to: Should we cancel our honeymoon in Bali?? posted by Beelamb on Thursday, 15. September 2005 at 12:56 Bali Time:
I have been to Bali once last year and I am going on the 26th September and I am not worried. The media and the whatnot are doing there best to stop people going to Bali and I think this is wrong. I have also stood at Ground Zero in New York and never felt worried, nor did our government place a travel advisory on visiting the United States. I am going to London at Christmas and again there seems to be no travel warning for that country despite the bombings. Take what you want from the inequities of the travel warnings but the Balinese people do not need to be placed as a pawn in Howard's relucance to either change the travel warnings in Bali or change the ones for the United States and United Kingdom.
I say go and have a great time, Bali is truly a great place and the people are great also. The only other option is to stay at home and people like Howard and Bush win and the Balinese people loose.
