Is this girl about 5.5 dark brown long hair. I came across an Australian girl when i was living in bali and this was about october that I met her. The boys from the boxing camp bought her back to the camp early hours in the morning and then woke me up to come and help a fellow Aussie. Her story was she had no money , had lost her passport and all papers and her parents were killed in the bombing, I presume the last one, and no ticket back as it went in the bombing.Before I got to the door I was feeling a bit sus. as the bombing was ages before and the consulate would have helped her and in the last bombing , there was no Australian couple killed. So I went to see her in my pjsk, and she did not know the boys had come to get me, and nearly freaked out when she saw me. I , as a Mum, put my arms around her and asked how I could help and she wanted money and my sixth sense kicked in. I asked her why she had not sought help from rthe Australian Consulate and I would take her when the officed opened. She said no, she was worried about being illegal.I then asked her about her parents and she told me to mind my own business and became abusive to me. The poor boys who dont speak much English, were wondering why kind old Mum (me) was becoming angry with poor Australian girl in trouble. I knew they would be in trouble with the boss if he knew she was in the rooms so i told her to come and spend the rest of the night in my place but she was out of it and started swearing at me. I then told her if she changed her mind and wanted me to take her to Denpasar in the morning, to come to my place and we would go. She did not. It must have looked funny, an aussie mum in shortie pjs, hair sticking out, girl laying on concrete outside sleeping quarters, surrounded by 10 young boxers, with their heads turning back and forwards like at a tennis match, as our dialogue went from bad to worse. Oh well, another day/night in Disneyland. Seriously though, I feel this is not the same person, but Tourist Polisi should take her to Consulate for her own protection.
