We all seem to have forgotten some of the heinous crimes that have been committed against Australian children staying in the care of staff at certain hotels in Bali. Sad as some were reported only at the beginning of last year.
The biggest evil is false security and Bali is no different to anyother country when it comes to local pedophiles. Just read this month's postings on approaches in the streets of Kuta and Legian.
I do agree with the poster about the Dynasty and their Kid's Club however I have seen the staff there be slack on occassions with my 8 year old swimming in the main pool unattended by staff, after I had given specific instructions that the main swimming pool was out of bounds for him.

I am heading up to Bali on Thursday for the first time since 2001 and taking both of my boys( aged 9 and 13 ) and they will not be allowed to roam the gardens by themselves even though we are staying at the Kartika.

I apologise in advance if any posters are offended by what I have posted but our children are vunerable and those that would harm them do not take holidays when we are on holidays.
