Article Abstract:

Severe punishment is meted out to foreigners found guilty of possessing drugs in Indonesia as shown in the case of Schappelle Corby, Renae Lawrence the alleged ringleader of Bali Nine and Scott Rush, a Queenslander. After the 2002 bombings, Australians were just beginning to come once again to Bali, but with these harsh convictions, it seems that Australians may once again boycott the islands.
