Brief summary:
Du bør til enhver tid være opmærksom på din personlige sikkerhed og udvise stor forsigtighed pga. risikoen for terror og naturkatastrofer. De fleste danskere har dog ingen problemer under besøg i landet. Lombok blev i juli/august 2018 ramt af voldsomme jordskælv, som også forårsagede ødelæggelser på Gili-øerne. Infrastruktur og bygninger i området er alvorligt beskadiget, men genopbygningen er nu godt igang. Vi fraråder ikke-nødvendige rejser til provinserne Central-Sulawesi, Papua og Vest-Papua. pga. risikoen for væbnede sammenstød mellem myndighederne og militante grupper, terror, voldelige uroligheder og kriminalitet. Risiciene er så alvorlige, at du bør have helt særlige grunde til at besøge områderne. Du bør være forsigtig ved rejser til Molukkerne (Ambon) og Aceh-provinsen pga. risikoen for voldelige uroligheder.

Danger level: 3
