Like many Australians we have been watching the Schapelle Corby case run its last lap.
Corby the young girl convicted of carrying marijuana into Bali - bit like taking sand to the Arabian desert...
Television has been promoting the many programs on Corby and her imprisonment in Bali. Was she innocent and framed by Balinese authorities to prove a point that they will not tolerate so called bad and illegal behavior...
The Kuta strip and beach area is a disaster - dozens of "king hits" and fights. Described at the most dangerous area in the world. A washed with drugs and hookers. From marijuana, cocaine and heroine plentiful.
Magic mushroom milkshakes for $10 Australian...
Only hours ago television promotions (adds) highlighted the program "Dark Side of Paradise" with the by line that one Australian dies there every seven (7) days..
If 50 Australians are dying in Bali each year, how many other Nationalities have similar numbers of deaths..
...
With the recent death of a young Mother and her daughter put down to food or alcohol poisoning it begs the question why go to the place.
Then the bashing and strangling of a Queensland boy put down to a motor cycle accident. Our own Department of Foreign Affairs appear to be of very little help to Australian families seeking help for injured or murdered Australians (and other Nationalities)..
One million Australians journey to Bali each year. How bloody silly are they..
Deaths are the result of drugs, robberies gone wrong, stabbings, accidents and poisonous alcohol.
Young woman are constantly robbed, bashed and raped with authorities appearing to do little about it.
Families heading to Bali to rescue their kids are treated second rate by authorities.
Prisoners stating they have been set up by authorities requiring prisoners in their Prisons - creating jobs for their Bali residents.
Add to this a fourth rate medical system and its corrupt medical, pharmaceutical systems manufacturing drugs for street sale..
Obviously, there are better locations to holiday in Bali, but at the higher end of accommodation it attracts the tourist with money that stays well away from bars, surf beaches and nightclubs where our young kids go.
Cheap flights, cheaper alcohol and plentiful drugs are a recipe for disaster for our children ...
I'm certain that none of my kids will ever set foot in Bali..
guess I would give them the money to go to a safer location...
In the interim television is making a fortune on the story..
