I would appear you're one of these live and breath Bali,... manage to introduce Bali and the fact you've been there into most of your conversations with friends and family and the old stranger,..... maybe you should try not mentioning Bali or being on this Forum for one week,..broaden your horizons a little...find another interest other than Bali..
So some people cancel, understandable considering past events and current warnings,...getting all hyped up and over it only effects your blood pressure....so they're using one of the bomb sights as a car park,... So WHAT?!
The Balinese don't have a problem with the car park, why should anybody else? most on this group don't have a problem with it either...
As for tourist helping them (Balinese) get on their feet,... you can't force people to go,....you can't convince everybody that no risk is involved in going,.............. some people go and never return because they don't like Bali,.....I met many people that went to Bali regularly for years and stopped going before the 2002 attack just because they got sick of Bali,.. didn't like the changes that had occurred over they years,.. found some place they liked better,... just decided to move on....
Your taking it all to personally.....you're not going to change anything
