they do checks on id...not on certain people but everyone...including westerners. Can't comment on the "kicking in doors" no one I know has ever had that experience. The banjar have to have every persons id details which is then provided to immigration. If I have anyone stay in my house its my responsibility to give their details to the local banjar...same goes for all the hotels and villas.And I didn't say Kuta...all banjars have to do the same. Imagine the outcry and consequences if it was discovered there were more terrorists here...security is tighter and has to be...thank God!
