My friend said that he wasn't going to Bali as originally planned due to Moslem unrest in that area.

Actually, Bali itself is Hindu, not Muslim. I knew somebody who was there about 3 years ago when there were riots in Jakarta due to the economic crisis. After he returned and everybody was asking if it had ruined his vacation, his reply was that it was about like being in New York when there were riots in Los Angeles.
