    I certainly didn't mean to imply that a person should be excused from punishment because they have a fat wallet. I was just trying to point out that countries might want to take a serious look at the positives tourists/expats bring to the country before imposing harsher visa restrictions to appease the perceptions of bigots, nationalists and xenophobes.

    Just a guess, but this probably appeals to the "something must be done about this" brigade....if there is such an entity in Indonesia. Nonsensical, not properly thought out and ultimately ineffectual.

    I'd be willing to bet that "foreigners" account for less than 1% of crime in Indo. I wonder what percentage of the GDP they account for?
