You didn't ever do anything (harmless) that was a stupid mistake when you were young? Or recently? This guy's life could be ruined. That matches the crime you think? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harmless as in the ganja he was carrying was harmless. It was obviously for his own consumption. He's not a pusher. Not harmless as far as the consequence to his life. Look, if you want to be a hard ass about this, up to you. Indonesia approves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiexpat Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Can only imagine how panicked this guy is, but how stupid do you have be at 25 to take weed to Bali (and he also went through Malaysia to get there) For all those saying Indonesia law is wrong, what country does allow you to carry weed on a flight in?
