Not really. It's SE Asia. If you're white, more than likely all that's going to happen is they'll scare you, then extort money out of you, then let you go on your merry way.
Well, I don't know about Bali so much, but that's how it works in Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam at least. Laws are viewed moreso as suggestions in this part of the world. There's loads of laws on the books, but they're selectively enforced. If a cop catches you for smoking a joint, more than likely the only thing that'll be going through his mind is, "Fucken eh, white guy smoking weed! Free karaoke night for me and my buddies tonight!"
There's only a small number of laws you can't get yourself out of with a donation. Murder, robbery, selling / traffic hard drugs, pedophilia, etc. For the most part, things can be handled informally though if you have a decent sized wallet.
