The Online Review

So i was reading some online reviews of Bangladesh and found this gem of an article:

Safety

Clashes in the Chittagong Hill Tract region have created a risk and therefore travelers are advised to avoid this area. This does not encompass Chittagong city. It is important that tourists be aware that terrorism is a threat in Bangladesh and explosions do occur in certain places. Embassies will be able to provide you with up-to-date information on the political and safety situation in Bangladesh. As it is throughout the world crime is increasing, especially in the larger cities. Be aware of pick pocketing, and purse-snatching. Do not walk alone at night or carry valuables. Keep jewelry and money in safety deposit boxes at the hotel. Penalties for breaking Bangladesh's laws are quite severe and very strict. Drug possession is not taken lightly and is likely to lead to imprisonment. Bangladesh's judicial system is low and prison conditions poor, so it is best to avoid engaging in any sort of wrongdoing.

Good to know dont you think? If i hadnt known better, i would have thought the copywriter has a good sense of humour.
