Death threats for director

<!-- by line --> <!-- end by line --> THE Singapore-based director of a controversial documentary Cowboys in Paradise - based on gigolos in Bali - has received death threats, reported The New Paper on Thursday. Mr Amit Virmani, in his 30s and a first-time documentary film-maker, is a Singapore permanent resident and Indian national. His documentary has not been fully screened yet in Indonesia but the threats via email have been posted via the show's website and on YouTube. The heat built up because of a two-minute trailer clip of the documentary released online in Dec 2009. Earlier this week, 28 young Indonesian men were questioned by Indonesian authorities over allegations of selling sex to female tourists.

He should be arrested for smearing the good name of Indonesia and the tranquility of Bali, we do have an extradition treaty with them right? I will be happy to escort him to the Polisi

It's quite a good trailer but you can tell the slant he is taking and it's not an objective look at Bali.

He should do a film on SPGs.s\\\\\\

Thousands of women travel to Bali each year in search of paradise. And many find it in the arms of the Kuta Cowboys. Masters at peddling the holiday-romance concoction, these bronzed beach ambassadors have made Bali one of the world’s leading destinations for female sex tourists.

Cowboys in Paradise is an independent feature documentary by Amit Virmani, that gets between the sheets of Bali’s male sex trade to reveal its most intimate secrets. Amit’s film already picked up three nominations at the Asian Film of First Films, including Best Documentary and Best Director (Documentary).

BALI - After the documentary of Bali's Kuta Cowboys went viral on the Internet, officials are investigating whether its Singapore-based director had the necessary permits to film on the island.

The documentary Cowboys in Paradise by director Amit Virmani was released at a film festival in South Korea last week. The film examines the phenomenon known as the "Kuta cowboys" - fit, tanned beach boys working on Bali's beaches who are alleged to be selling sex to foreign female tourists. The film has hit a raw nerve in Bali, which is protective of its image as a family-friendly tourist destination.

On Tuesday, Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika said he would investigate whether Mr Virmani had the necessary filming permits, reported The Jakarta Globe. The Bali police have since detained 28 "cowboys" accused of selling sex to female tourists.

Some of the men who appeared in the documentary deny they are gigolos. One of them, Arnold said: "We are not gigolos, we are surfing instructors."

Arnold also alleged that Mr Virmani lied by not revealing that the documentary was about male prostitution. "I didn't know that it was for a gigolo movie. Amit told me it would only be for holiday documentation," he said. "We are thinking of suing Amit Virmani, but we have no money to hire a lawyer".

People who sensationalize the world's oldest profession. Commercial sex between willing seller and buyer whether in Geylang or Bali, deserves death threats. Anyway Bali boys are well known. Many Ang Mo girls go there for their fun with oh so virile sex partners. These guys have tastes though. Old virgin sinkie hens may be rejected. Exotic breeds like Sumiko got better chance and should go there and try. Just wear bikini and head for Kuta Beach.

DENPASAR - BALI'S police are preparing charges of immigration and work permit violations against a Singapore-based film director over a movie that portrays beach boys on the island as gigolos. The boys featured have denied their portrayed roles in the film, Cowboys In Paradise, which has raised a ruckus of sorts on the popular resort island. Mr Armit Virmani, the Jakarta Globe reported Bali police spokesman Gede Sugianyar Dwi Putra as saying, did not have the official shooting permits. <!-- story content : start -->

The film-maker had also come to Bali on a tourist visa, and was not supposed to have done anything apart from vacationing, he added. 'But he made a film and thereby he clearly violated the immigration law,' he was quoted by Antara as saying. If charged, the film-maker could face up to one year in jail and fines of up to 40 million rupiah (S$6,000) for violating Indonesia's laws.

Hope they prepare EXTRADITION papers against him as well.

Singapore is well known for harboring Indon fugitives that were never extradited even when the INDONs ask.

Now we have this Ah Nei. EXTRADITE HIM for shaming the name of Singapore as well.

Seems like Singapore is a BASE for suka suka-ness for FTs.
