I forgot about WHO.
Here is what they say (it seems that there is only a risk of Malaria, and Bali is quite safe):
INDONESIA
Capital: Jakarta
Altitude: 10 m
Yellow fever: A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required from travellers coming from infected areas. The countries and areas included in the endemic zones (see map) are considered by Indonesia as infected areas.
Malaria: Malaria risk exists throughout the year in the whole country except in Jakarta Municipality, big cities, and within the areas of the tourist resorts of Bali and Java. P. falciparum resistant to chloroquine and sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine reported. P. vivax resistant to chloroquine reported.
Recommended prophylaxis in risk areas: mefloquine.
