San Diego Escorts: Tourism Officials Fear AIDS Will Undermine Bali Image

We have to pay extra attention to our tourism destinations because there are some [criminal] syndicates that seek out underage prostitutes, he said. This results in physical and mental harm as well as an increase in HIV/AIDS [cases].
Tourism is often blamed for contributing to the high rate of HIV/AIDS, but its not true. Tourism is a good thing. It is people who have misused tourism areas and facilities, he said.
