Bali authorities made wearing a face mask in public mandatory last year as Indonesia battled a raging Covid-19 outbreak.
Foreigners caught not wearing face masks on the Indonesian resort island of Bali are being subject to an unusual punishment: push-ups. Video footage circulating on social media this week shows tourists in T-shirts and shorts being made to do the exercise in sweltering tropical heat as masked security officials stood over them.
More than 70 people paid a fine of 100,000 rupiah ($7), but about 30 others said they did not have the cash.
Instead, they were ordered to do push-ups.
Those not carrying a mask had to do up to 50, while those who were wearing one improperly were punished with 15.

If you have asthma, and are wearing a mask while doing 50 pushups in 99% humidity/110 degrees F, you are likely to have a SERIOUS attack.
And for some of us, whether we can even DO 50 pushups is an open question.

On the other hand, I would happily pay $7 to not have to wear a mask on my vacation.

If the point was really stopping an airborne virus then a strenuous exercise that made one breath harder would not even be suggested. Only if the real point is demanding submission to obvious BS does it make any sense.

$7 plus the bribe to look the other way when you take off the mask.

I walked into an open home that was for sale. I went in without a mask. I was met by two realtor's who grabbed a box of paper masks. I don't know who may have coughed into the box or reached into the box wth their covid dirty hand to pick the fresh one at the bottom.
I said nope and left. Now if I was wanting to buy that house, that was a VERY EXPENSIVE mask they tried to put on my face.

It never ceases to amaze me how seemingly educated, well off people insist on vacationing in Third World crap holes.

It’s not like they were selling seashells on the seashore.
