i've been here for a few years now, and seen exactly 2 violent crimes.
in the US/Australia, that number would be in the dozens by now.
a few things to remember are just the obvious stuff:
- watch for pickpockets in crowded areas
- dodgy clubs are dodgy because there are dodgy people...duh. again, watch your pockers.
- only catch blue bird, express, dtaksi or transcab. preferably the former 2, although the latter two are fine as well. obviously uber as well.
- wear a condom for christ sake.
- dont pull out wads of 100k rupiah notes in public
