Travel Summary

You should not become involved with drugs of any kind: possession of even very small quantities can lead to imprisonment or the death penalty.

There is an underlying threat from terrorism. Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places frequented by expatriates and foreign travellers.

The offences of âoutrage of modestyâ (molestation) can result in a fine, jail or corporal punishment (the rattan cane). Travellers are advised to avoid any action that could be interpreted as molestation. Scams involving false claims of molest are thought to exist.
