• Always make sure that your bag and purse are safe from pickpockets. Do not wear any glaring jewelry since it might invite cruel intentions.

• Avoid accepting unexpected helps from unknown people. If you need any help, please contact the nearby security or tourism office immediately.

• When you go shopping to traditional markets, do not hesitate to bargain over a half of the price offered.

• Carefully observe some stores for a low price and good quality things before determining at which shop you want to buy something.

• Carefully travel around Jogja with city bus. The bus is unsafe, for there might be thieves and pickpockets in it, especially city bus's number 4, 7, 12, and 15.

• If you want to visit any shops, never follow any coaxing from becak operators that will take you to certain shops only. They do it because of being paid by the shop owners and maybe you do not need the goods they offer you.
