Hi guys,
I'm still working on the restaurant project and hopefully I'll pay a visit this March (fingers crossed). However I was browsing the net trying to put my hand on additional information regarding life in general in the island when I came across a website blasting away about Bali. Until then, most of the content I had read, found or heard about Bali had been positive. Not all, but most. On this rare occasion the website admin was informing his subscribers about the unfortunate fact of high corruption rates in Bali involving the police force and a local mafia.
I was wondering if there is any fact to this? Of course I'm not naive and I know that even in the paradise island you can bump into a corrupt official here and there. But I need to know if in the case of Bali businesses can be targets of the local mafia? If any of you have ever encountered any problems with the police?
I'm not trying to sound judgmental. I just need to hear about the level of corruption in Bali. I will be more than grateful to receive your valuable insights on this matter.
Regards,
Ali
