In Reply to: Dress Standards Bali? posted by GaryD on Wednesday, 12. August 2009 at 08:55 Bali Time:
Yes, very unfortunate that some have no standards at all! These people wouldn't dare dress or behave the way they do in Bali, at home - they think that "it's just bali - who cares?" We've all seen the loud brash americans, the pommy football hooligans, the german neo nazis - well Bali has certainly it's the Aussie bogans! Not all, not too many, but you'll see & hear them everywhere. Call me a prude, a spoilsport whatever, that's fine. Go to Bali, enjoy yourself but always remember to also take yourself respect with you. Yes, dress standards are non existant for some - but we always just dress comfortably, shorts, tee shirts, skirts etc - just don't embarrass yourself!
