to be congratulated on an accurate response to this issue. I also saw it and don,t see where the Bali bashing is. Once again at the first sight of negative comments all the bleeding hearts jump on the " let's be nice bandwagon ". These drug issues have been going on for ages, the more it is raised the more people will learn about the dangers. Some people just take longer to get the message. The dangers of a pushy drug dealer can,t be compared to the dangers of a pushy watch seller as someone so intelligently (not)
stated here. People can and do make decisions about Bali following stories like this, most open minded people know it basically is a warning. Where in the story did anyone make a comment directed at staying away from Bali. I agree with you that if one life is saved by these kind of stories then bring them on. The only crap I've seen regards this story is the comments from mackas, time for another valium I think.
