The trouble being that most young people who go to Bali and other Indonesian countries do it for one reason: to party themselves half unconscious and do stupid things. One of those stupid things could well be stumbling into a tattoo parlour and not caring what the precautions they take are. Not to mention that the big difference in Oz is that if you turn up drunk to most tattoo parlours, they refuse to work on you...I somehow doubt that such a precaution would be taken in most parlours in those parts of the world...
