Hi Dickkyboy
How can you believe that this was a fair article, you state:
"The article wasn't a glowing review of Bali, but, I think people know enough about the place and its history; not to be deterred by talk about a pre-bombing Bali where it was a party destination with no parallel. Bali is a starkly different place these days"
He wasn't talking about a pre-bombing Bali he says:
"Now many of the tourist centres are polluted dumps that serve only to give uncomfortable weight to the argument that tourism ruins the world."
Again I ask you how can this be fair when the article clearly implies that he is talking about Bali as it is now. You clearly indicate that Bali is different now, in your opinion, so you seem to condradict yourself, or am I missing something.
