I asked prior to going to Bali about securing my case and got a few answers. I have also noted below that people have been talking about buying security tape. Seems pretty expensive to me. I bought clip seals from the hardware store, can;t remeber how much they were but only a few bucks. I secured my suitcase with this in all areas that could have been accessed (they can only be removed by cutting them off). Call me paranoid but I also spray painted the tags a bright green so I could easily identify them as well as ensuring that they had not been removed and replaced. Anyway, cut a long story short, they worked a treat, can be easily cut off at the other end, and you can take extra for your return trip home. Hope this is of some help to you all.
