Thailand perhaps (although I'd note that political instability in Thailand is carefully done to avoid disturbing the tourism industry in anyway).

But it's been many years (25? If you count Timor crisis?) since any significant political disturbance in Bali/Indonesia and only 3 years since a coup attempt in Guam/USA.

I visited Thailand multiple times just after military coups, and the only thing I noticed was more things getting poached from my checked luggage. Oh, and sometimes the big shopping malls in Bangkok are closed.

Bali did have that bombing just after 9/11 a while back. Sort of ancient history anyways, but I've loved my trips there.

The Bali bombing was in 2002. I don't think that counts as political instability unless 9/11 counts as political instability.
