some inside information that demonstrates that there is "corruption" involved here......or is it just an educated (or uneducated) guess??
The fact of the matter is that people do NOT complain about corruption in Bali.
Quite the opposite in fact.
People get tired of over regulation in "Western" countries and enjoy having to "negotiate" their way around situations in Bali.
People are more than happy to run the gauntlet of carrying extra booze, and know that it's just a few bob in the officers pocket if caught.
Ditto with driving and licences.
The VIP thing is a storm in a teacup.
If you don't want to use it, then don't.....simple as that.
