Before a motorcycle helmet to be used in Australia on public roads, it has to comply with Australian Standard 1698 and have a marking on the helmet to that effect.
I have never see helmet in Bali with that marking. Having said that, any helmet is better than no helmet in Bali.
I use the full face style helmet to protect my face. I came off twice on a 28 day motorcycling trip around Bali earlier this year and only suffered cuts on one leg.
