UBUD, THE ONE-TRICK PONY

When I ¿rst came to Ubud in 1969 it wasn’t much geared for tourism. I remember a few home stays and the Campuan Hotel, some simple warungs (this was ¿ve years before Murni opened Ubud’s ¿rst real restaurant) and not a single souvenir shop. The village was strung out along a few narrow, dusty tracks amid endless rice ¿elds. Electricity would not arrive for over a decade; at night, kerosene lamps lit the darkness and everyone went to bed early. I don’t know whether anyone was counting tourists in Ubud in those days, but he probably could have done it on his ¿ngers and toes.

Higher education is rarely considered by Ubud parents, unless it’s tourism-related. There are now so many jobs in the sector that anyone who wants to work can do so, and thinking ahead is not part of the culture. Wages and tips go on a new Scoopy, a new iPhone, a new tablet because most young people live at home and don’t pay rent. That, along with easy credit and the easy money from land sales has created a strong consumer society in a culture where the work ethic is a new concept.

I know many committed, hard working young Balinese with a great work ethic. But then there are the others.

“Agriculture drove the economy here until the mid 1980s,” says photographer Rio Helmi, who has lived in Ubud since Friends who have business here tell me it’s become very the 1970s. “That’s when electricity arrived. Television soon dif¿cult to ¿nd and keep staff recently. It seems that no one wants to do production work anymore. followed, and the outside world came Kids are very selective these days blasting into Bali. The island became There’s no diversity, and prefer to work in a villa, a spa or porous, absorbing influences from nothing else to fall back on a fashionable restaurant, thank you. elsewhere for the ¿rst time. ” if tourism fails And when they get bored, or their friends get a job in a trendier place, The Nusa Dua hotel enclave was developed to accommodate growing numbers of they quit without notice. Those of us who grew up with a international tourists, some of whom were wandering up as Presbyterian work ethic ¿nd this behaviour very strange. So far as Ubud in the late 1980s. Not many at ¿rst—there was does my diligent housekeeper Wayan Manis. “Lazy and no beach, so it took awhile for travellers to realise that the spoiled,” she mutters darkly. quiet village had its own unique charm. One thing led to another. Day trippers would stay longer if there were “This is a very serious problem in Ubud,” the owner of one more guest houses. They needed to eat: a few little popular restaurant told me. “No matter how well treated and tourist-friendly restaurants opened. Tourists wanted to buy well paid the staff are, they have no loyalty and leave without paintings, wood carvings and textiles and it was easier to even a day’s notice. They are completely unskilled coming open a small shop than to peddle wares from porch to porch. in so a lot of time and effort goes into training. But so many They were interested in the culture, so dance performances of them just don’t want to work. And it’s worse now than when I opened 3 years ago. were arranged in the evenings.

Fast forward 2015. Just two generations have passed.

The charming agricultural village has swollen into a dirty, traf¿c-congested town jammed with guest houses, hotels, restaurants and shops. Almost every business in the centre of town and many on the periphery is focused entirely on the tourism industry. Almost every family compound has at least one member working in tourism as a driver, maid, cook, shop assistant, guide, spa therapist, waiter, villa manager or night watchman.

“Ubud’s economy is very prosperous compared to villages nearby and many people have become extremely wealthy,” Rio told me. “The agricultural leg of the economy has been amputated and everything now pivots around tourism. It makes the local economy very vulnerable.

The pitfalls of a mono-economy are like the dangers of monoculture; one pest/problem can spread quickly and wipe out the entire crop. The Bali bomb in 2002 shut down the tourist industry for years.

“All the existing sectors are connected to tourism -construction, architecture, shops, restaurants, hotels -which means the people in those industries end up making the big decisions which have a strong inÀuence over culture.

“Many Ubudites are heavily mortgaged. They buy cars and motorbikes on credit so they’re very exposed because they are all dependent on tourism. This unreal bubble is getting bigger and bigger. There’s no diversity, nothing else to fall back on if tourism fails. One bomb or a ¿nancial crisis could make Ubud a ghost town overnight.”

Rio went on to describe the cultural erosion he’s witnessed, especially over the past few years. It’s been insidious, as these things often are. When I moved here 15 years ago all the shops and restaurants used to shut for at least one day at Galungan. Then they started to open late in the afternoon and now they all open at noon so the staff can pray quickly and get back to work; the tourists must be fed. On Nyepi eve, it used to be mostly Balinese families gathering to watch the ogoh ogoh on the football ¿eld. Over time more and more foreigners joined the throng and this year Balinese faces in the crowd were rare. And in this hierarchical and still feudal society, young people of all castes ¿nd themselves doing the same work for the same wages. There’s some thesis material here.

But this isn’t another rant about uncontrolled tourism. I’m looking at Ubud’s young people and wondering what will become of them. I am making some broad generalisations here, but there is de¿nitely a trend.

“Ubud badly needs an association of business owners to work together to improve skills and instil a work ethic. We need a system of personal references -- without them there’s no way to track skills, experience and integrity. Tourism is a service industry and tourists’ expectations are high. And what happens if a there’s another bomb or some other disaster that shuts down tourism?”

A producer of chemical-free food products said, “Finding staff has been such a problem for us. Anything associated with farming is not cool amongst young people. They generally want a job with status, which in this tourist-based economy means a restaurant or hotel. Balinese youth seem to be increasingly interested only in ‘easy money’ formulas. The older generation has a stronger work ethic and is generally much more reliable.”

A factory owner with 30 years of production in Bali agrees.

“I have half a dozen jobs on offer including management level positions, but no candidates. Everyone wants to ‘work in a villa’. But doing what? Cleaning toilets?”

There’s a serious lack of role models for young Indonesians.

With no one to inspire them at the banjar, provincial or national level they are literally left to their own devices, to which many are addicted. I’ve often walked into a shop to ¿nd the serving staff all so focused on their phones that they don’t even look up. (And the terrifying habit of casually texting messages while driving a motorcycle often has a predictable if messy outcome.)

So here we have it. Ubud is a town that’s hooked on money with a population that increasingly regards the tourists who generate it as a cash crop. But crops fail.

Just saying.

Who will feed the one-trick pony once the circus has moved on?

DVD Unbroken* During WW11, after an airplane crash, an American airman spends several harrowing months adrift on the Pacific Ocean in a rubber lifeboat. At last, he is rescued by the Japanese, and, taken to a Japanese Prisoner of War camp. Here, the airman, who is also a famous Olympian athlete, is relentlessly tortured and victimized by a jealous and sadistic prison guard. This movie is based on a real life story, and, it is intended to be inspiring. It’s directed by Angelina Jolie, who shows that she is just as talented behind the camera as she is in front of it. Angelina works hard to breathe some life into this rather predictable story about courage and cruelty. However, it is probably a good thing to be reminded occasionally about Japan’s inhumanity during the war.

The Water Diviner* At the conclusion of WW1, an Australian farmer, who has the ability to predict the location of underground water, vows on his wife’s fresh grave to go to Turkey. There, he hopes to find, and bring back for proper burial, the bodies of their three sons who were killed in action at Gallipoli.

The farmer intends to use his divining gift in establishing where his sons’ remains are located. On arrival in Istanbul, he is given a complete run-around by an arrogant English Army Officer, and, it is not until he meets a concerned and interested Turkish General that things really start to happen. Russell Crowe directs and stars in this Australian movie. Russell gives a really terrific performance, but, his direction is merely competent. The movie is pedestrian and lacks flair. It is saved from boredom only by its intriguing real life story.

The Liberator This is another competently made but pedestrian movie.

Alberto Arvelo tells the story of Simon Bolivar, who was a South American revolutionary in the early 19th century. He fought Spain for many years in his attempts to liberate Venezuela. The movie just plods along from one battle scene to the next. You don’t learn all that much about Bolivar, but, you do get to hear a lot of extracts from his volatile and rebel-rousing speeches. Edgar Ramirez stars.

Miasto 44 Continuing on with our theme of competent but dull movies, this one looks at Poland at the end of WW11. Jana Komasy tells the real life story of a group of Polish resistance fighters, who go into action as the Russian Army approaches Warsaw to liberate it from the Germans. The movie contains its required amounts of tension and violence. It is salvaged by some really remarkable reconstructed visions of a totally war torn and devastated Poland.

Back Country More predictable boredom. A young couple go hiking and camping in the Canadian wilderness. Of course, they get lost and have to fight nature to get back to civilization. The true worth of the man and woman is severely tested.

Tracers Teenage heartthrob Taylor Lautner plays a New York bicycle messenger. When he goes to work for a new organization, he is not sure just what he is carrying in the packages he delivers. If you can’t wait to see Taylor take his shirt off again, then this is the movie for you. Nothing much else comes off!

Cut Bank In a small out-of-the-way American town, a young couple is making a video in an out-of-the-way spot. However, they also happen to witness and record the murder of the local postman. The local cop investigates the case, but, he starts to think it might be part of an insurance scam. The movie is rather complicated and hard to follow. Liam Hemsworth, John Malkovich, Billy Bob Thornton, and, Bruce Dern, don’t seem to know what it is about either.

4 to 15 years. The classes are 1 hour in duration and only Rp150,000 per child. Each class is dedicated to a particular pastry, cake or sublime creation of some kind and during the sessions, children will learn and practise the basics of making and putting personalised finishing touches to their own cake. They are then able to bring their masterpiece home for the family to share (I hope!).

Kids in the Kitchen Despite a saturation of cooking shows on our screens of late, I don’t remember a time when I didn’t love to bake.

Many hours of my childhood were spent in our stifling hot North Queensland kitchen watching in awe of my mother as she created afternoon tea favourites and sweet sensations for family celebrations. There always ensued a fierce battle between sticky fingered siblings for the honour of licking the beaters or wiping the remnants of the mix from the bowl.

As well as the anticipation of sampling the spectacular end result, it was the wonder of just how all of those seemingly unremarkable ingredients came together to produce

something that looked, smelt and tasted magical! It’s this curiosity that Monsieur Spoon founder Greg recognised in his own children and those who visited his bakeries staring in wide eyed wonderment at the rows of delights before them that led him to the decision to start baking classes for kids.

His aim was to ‘encourage their enthusiasm and reward their curiosity’ by allowing them to become a part of the creation process. “I wanted to let kids come into the kitchen and meet the bakers. To touch the dough and see the caramel being made. I want them to understand that baking and cooking are creative like art and that they can all be artists.”

Cooking classes for kids are held at Monsieur Spoon on the last weekend of every month and are perfect for ages from

There are generally 2 sessions per weekend - one on Saturday and one Sunday however classes are popular so bookings are advised as places are also limited. The next cooking classes are scheduled for April 24th and 25th so why not book the kids in, pull up a chair in their gorgeous shaded garden area and enjoy a coffee and a sweet sensation or three while you wait. As for dessert that night, the kids have it covered!

They say the proof of the pudding is in the tasting but Monsieur Spoon makes sure there’s plenty of fun in its creation!

Good Vibes & Green Leaves Fresh from the boys who brought us popular Warunug Heboh on the junction near the cut through to Echo Beach, comes their latest offering on Jalan Perencak (road to Berawa Beach) The Piring Daun.

Loosely translated to mean ‘plate leaf’ the name is rather appropriate as meals are all served up on banana leaves. It would be great to be a dishy in this place - minimal washing up! The cuisine is Northern Sumatran with an Indian bent and is ever so tasty with a good dose of spice.

The vibe is very smooth with open space and lots of cool concrete with dining indoors and out. Not only are these folk very traditional with their choice of serving dishes, meals are delivered to the table via a very cute stainless steel trolley. The menu offers an extensive selection of authentic flavours as well as great value western breakfasts and good coffee, perfect for that post morning surf pick-me-up.

Open from 8am until 9pm, Tuesdays to Sundays, The Piring Daun is particularly popular for its outrageously cheap lunch sets. Try their nasi campur with spicy egg balado complete with vegetables, potatoes and peanut tempe along with free flow rice for just Rp20,000 or their nasi campur with chicken curry, all of the above and eggs for a mere Rp30,000 - all meals on wheels to your table!

Though I am yet to try them, their roti canai and massive murtabaks with curry sauce dip look absolutely delicious (yes, there was some food envy) and I am informed the iced lemon tea is legendary.

The Piring Daun is the ideal option when you find the usual cafe fare in the ‘Gu is getting a bit ‘same same’ no different. Give your tastebuds a wake up with some sultry Sumatran spices and Indian curries. But you might want to take advantage of their happy hour ice cold Bintangs to take the heat off.

Boot Camp’s Back on Schedule

BOOTCAMP

It’s baaaaaack! Canggu Fitness Centre’s boot camps are making a return to the schedule and if you are looking to step up your exercise regime a notch or seeking that bootylicious butt (post Easter indulgences) then pay attention!

As a veteran ‘commander’ of nearly a decade of bootcamps in Australia and abroad, The Canggu Club’s Duane Ferguson is more than qualified to guide eager recruits through an hour of entertaining and effective exercise. A national finalist in the Amex Quest for Excellence Awards for Health and Wellness, Advanced Outdoor Training Instructor, Crossfit coach, ‘Thump’ boxing instructor AND founder of ‘Move It’ outdoor training, Duane incorporates a mixed bag of techniques and strategies to ensure you get the most out

of your workout.

So why work outside when there is a perfectly good gym at your doorstep? Boot Camps continue to enjoy huge popularity due largely to the fact that they incorporate one important factor - they are OUTSIDE! Being outdoors means you are working out in public and with others. Natural instinct kicks in along with a bit of healthy competitive spirit and the desire not to be last means you work harder and get more out of your workout. Add to the fact that taking in your scenic surrounds is far more appealing than staring at the wall of a gym or small screen, boot campers are generally a social lot and these outdoor sessions double as a great opportunity to get together and have some serious fun!

Open 6 days (closed Monday) from 8am - 9pm.

Boot camps focus on a different style of training that encourages participants to work against natural forces such as gravity, inertia and momentum. Unlike the gym, where some of those machines look like they require a masters degree to manoeuvre, boot camps utilise slightly more ‘primal’ equipment such as sledge hammers, tractor tyres, ropes big enough to grace the bow of the Queen Mary, free weights, medicine balls, kettle bells and big expanses of grassy areas. It’s a great opportunity to expel some pent up frustrations and expend that excess energy if you ask me!

Granted, there are a lot of talented independent trainers out there offering outdoor fitness classes in a variety of locations, however Canggu Club Boot Camps have the added advantage of having access to a clean, flat, safe and grassy field. Being able to utilise Splash Water Park to incorporate stair runs, (yes, all 80 of them - collective groan) and the Crazy Creek lap pool for water resistance training (let’s not forget a refreshing post training dip) means classes are filled with a variety of different exercises to suit all tastes and levels of ability.

Each Boot Camp is 60 minutes, starting with a warm up.

Classes are scheduled for Thursdays at 8.30am and Saturdays at 7.30am, commencing April 23rd. Having had the privilege of experiencing several of Duane’s classes on previous occasions, I can guarantee each session to be filled with fun, fitness, lighthearted ribbing and a good dose of Duane’s really bad jokes! A blessing really as you can chuckle your way through a grueling workout, the laughter taking attention away from aching limbs. No pain no gain!

Coffee & Kue

So many new cafes, warungs and restaurants have sprung up in the Canggu vicinity over the last six months, you could be forgiven for having difficulty making a decision about where to eat. One little venue has popped up quite unexpectedly at the top end of Jalan Pantai Berawa that takes some of the dilemma out of decision making by its delightfully decisive menu options.

11 Elephants is a cute little sidewalk coffee shop located opposite Taco Love that serves just coffee and donuts! I shouldn’t say ‘just’ coffee and donuts because their brew is seriously good and seriously well priced, sourcing beans from around Indonesia and expertly roasted by Jakarta based, 9 Cups Coffee Roasters. My latte arrived to my breezy outdoor table on a very vogue wooden tray, complete with glass of iced water and uber cute elephant cookie.

Of course I couldn’t resist the urge to test drive one of their donuts and at Rp8,000 why wouldn’t I? After a week of Disney movie reruns and several viewings of Cinderella (thanks to school holidays and my daughter), I could ‘t go past the ‘Snow White’ however there also options with nutella, choc sprinkles and Indonesian style sweets kue

Auskick Has Arrived!

cubit or pinch cakes.

My little sweetie appeared on its own 11 Elephants branded bread board - golden, round and covered in powdered sugar. Needless to say the diet ain’t starting anytime soon....

From the first nibble it was obvious that the texture and flavour was unlike those sickly sweet mass produced numbers and it was worth savouring bit by bit. The donuts are actually made from a potato base which adds texture and a unique taste without sticking like glue to the roof of your mouth like the other more commercial brands which shall remain nameless.

Ok, so this joint may not make the agenda for the next long lunch but it is a perfect place to stop by and refuel with a great cup of caffeine and a sweet pick me up. I am also keeping it in mind for some takeaway after school treats for the kidlets - and moi!

development and end usually with a game. The emphasis is on having fun and learning the skills of the sport.

MUSIC MATTERS

By Toby Greetings live music fans, and welcome to a new edition of Music Matters here in your local Bali Advertiser.

Easter is a time for resurrection, for moving forward, and also eating roast dinners and stuf¿ng our faces with Easter eggs, while trying to contemplate the religious signi¿cance of it all. I went and attended an evangelical church (the first time I have been in any religious building in over six years) and enjoyed the great singing, and the frankly surprising talent of the church band.

related to life on the island. As an example, he opened with a song called “Barong Landung”, which was a very upbeat number with lyrics dedicated to Balinese childhood, and the simple joy of Àying a kite. The band was formed in 2009 by I Gede Lanang Wiweka (aka) Mr. Botax (lead vocals & bass), Icuk (additional drummer) and Donnie Lesmana (additional lead guitar) they are heavily reggae inÀuenced and all the music is a combination of this style ,with crunchy power chords, and an overall punk feel.

The guys were incredibly tight, (and after chatting with them after the service) it comes as no surprise as a lot of the musicians who play in the Bali circuit also perform in their local churches. This duality is not a total conÀict of interests as they play to the gods of rock and roll Monday to Saturday, and on Sunday it’s all about their beliefs. These guys are more often than not from areas like Lake Toba in Sumatera, where Christianity is the accepted religion.

Mr. Botax is the self titled debut album from a talented project of former members of several bands that had dominated the music scene in Bali for ages.

Easter Sunday in Bali is de¿nitely not the same as back home, where like Christmas; we generally spend the day with our family and friends, whereas in Bali, Easter Sunday saw the emergence of a new player on the islands live music circuit.

Yo u w o u l d b e forgiven for any of you who have been to Akasaka Music Club in Denpasar, for thinking this is a club which plays house, electro, and techno music, has resident DJ’s, and is not a place associated with guitar solos, and thumping riffs. There is a change afoot however, as much to mine, and I am sure to everyone’s surprise Akasaka is now hosting what they are calling ‘Bali Stars’ live music in the form of (soon to be) weekly gigs. The club is calling it a “concert party” the concept being that two well renowned bands will play a gig, then the club will follow this up with a DJ. Easter Sunday saw the ¿rst night of this venture and Mr. Botax and Sindu Project both took to the stage.

I Gede Lanang Lanang Wiweka was originally a solo artist who called himself ‘The Reggae Band’ while others in Mr. Botax started life in Blue Band, a Balinese rock band which was quickly very famous on the island. The band has also been working in collaboration with a renowned producer in Bali, Bagus Mantra, from Pregina on open air gigs, and various festivals, and charity events.

Mr. Botax were launching their debut single “PeSuTai”. This is a song about a husband who is very afraid of his wife, the song was catchy and seemed to get people up and moving.

The second song “Indonesian Red and White in my chest” calls upon all people of Indonesia and promotes a sense of nationalism and love of the homeland it reminded me of maybe the Dropkick Murphy’s however the nationalism and motherland rhetoric was reminiscent of Stalinist Russia!

I was out of my element really in reviewing these two bands as my Bahasa is not what you would call adequate however both Sindu Project and Mr. Botax, seemed professional and dedicated to what they were trying to achieve, which was to entertain and put on a show for everyone who had come to see them. The crowd was slim on the ground, I believe this was due to the fact that Akasaka Music Club is not known as a venue for live music, and as a result the advertising for the event was poor, also the club is not cheap, and to have local musicians it would be wise to charge local prices!

The ¿rst act the Sindu Project was established on January 20th 2012. At ¿rst glance, the lead singer seems young compared to the rest of the band, but don’t be fooled as the band itself is a mish mash of ages hence the name “Project”.

The band, Apong (vocals), Eka Badeng (vocals & guitar), Tekung (lead guitar), Nik Tut (bass) and Petruk (drums) was I applaud Akasaka for taking this bold move, and hopefully largely set up by likeminded older musicians, as a way to it will be the start of something really great for the Bali live entertain themselves in their retirement. music scene. The club itself is almost perfect as a venue, and has great acoustics, a massive stage, large dance Àoor, In 2012, Sindu Project released their debut album. It contains and could accommodate some big name bands both 10 tracks with the title track “Dong Oman” becoming the locally, and internationally. I think with better advertising, band’s brand in 2015. Although it is not exactly a band which more thought on whom they wish to attract, and the prices could be called young anymore, the spirit of each one of the charged on drinks at gigs, we could quickly see this event musicians and their passion for the music they play, makes gaining momentum and Akasaka becoming a go-to venue this band still current and widely respected on the Balinese for live music in the future. music scene, the band’s vocalist is very similar in style to Indonesian superstar Iwan If you enjoyed this article or have any questions, concerns, or Fals, and he brings a different if indeed you are the illusive Chris Curtis please don’t hesitate color vibe and energy to the to drop me a line, here to the Bali Advertiser, or alternatively music. to my direct email address tobiasjbrown@rockfan.com

HECTORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S ENHANCE & PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS IN SOCIAL MEDIA CONSISTENTLY SERVING CLIENTS SINCE 2002 C/Ci/I-01 Oct 14

A Line in Their Sand Developer tycoon Tomy Winata, who rose from street icepop seller to become one of Indonesiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s richest men and whose substantial and rightly recognized philanthropic ventures include helping the poor and saving Sumatran tigers (and protecting mangroves; we kid you not) is having a rough trot with his plans to destroy more than 700 hectares of mangroves in Benoa Bay to build hotels, a convention centre and an entertainment complex. The plan has the approval and support of Governor Made Mangku Pastika, though why this should be so has long been something of a mystery. Perhaps it is connected with Pastikaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wish to see millions of Chinese tourists in Bali.

They travel in corralled but otherwise unmanageable packs, so Winataâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed seaside attraction might at least provide space for all their buses to park. Digging up the mangroves and destroying a precious marine habitat requires 23 million cubic metres of sand to be dumped in their place. Winataâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company Tirta Wahana Bali International would like to dredge that sand from East Lombok.

Governor Zainul Majdi of West Nusa Tenggara doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like this idea at all. The Apr. 5 issue of the useful publication Lombok Guide reported his view as being that the plans were the reverse of beneficial as â&#x20AC;&#x153;the disadvantages outweighed the advantagesâ&#x20AC;?. Doubtless the crabs and fish of the Benoa mangroves would agree. So would the Benoa fishermen whose livelihoods are to be expropriated so that Winata and others can get even richer at the expense of Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unique natural environment and traditional human society. Governor Zainul has formally filed a letter rejecting the plan with the Forest and Environment Ministryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Centre for Environmental Impact Analysis. The Lombok Guide reported what he said when advising of his action. His words are worth thinking about: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lombok Island has a small island ecosystem and must be maintained, both on land and at sea. We want to guard this area so we can pass it on to the next generation.

Therefore, we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t permit anything that can destroy the environmental quality in West Nusa Tenggara.â&#x20AC;?

Karmic Payback Still with the Lombok Guide â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is essential reading at The Cage: We had a giggle when we read that Governor Zainul Majdi was a little shirty about PLN (in its West Nusa Tenggara incarnation) because of the continual blackouts it was visiting upon his province. He was particularly miffed about them not even bothering to reply to his correspondence, reminded them publicly of their corporate charter (it involves supplying power, which may surprise them) and threatened to report them for doing dodgy business. We sympathize. Monopolies everywhere are as uncommunicative as possible.

But we shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have giggled. It was incautious in the Karmic sense. The day after we did, PLN (in its defective Bali incarnation) turned the power off at The Cage for several hours. Since on the previous evening, after Easter libations had been taken to excess, we had not been bothered to recharge our laptop or our mobile phone, the morning in question was rather flat and unproductive.

Our Favourite Dish A Moroccan ambience has always attracted The Diary. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing to do with kif, really, or Orwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diaries, or even Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much more to do with Moroccan food and coffee, especially when these are evocatively teamed with the warm Berber colours and tones of the western Maghreb. So we were pleased to hear from our favourite dish, Diana Shearin, that CafĂŠ Cous Cous is the place to go for same, if you can find your way through the traffic to reach the new establishment in Jl Bumbak, Gg Pulau, at Umalas. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve promised to try.

Still Barking Mad Rabies is re-emerging as a threat to Bali, with another death from the preventable disease in Bangli regency and clear indications that the required 70 per cent vaccination screen in the canine community is nowhere near reality and that rabies must be assumed to be both present and a deadly threat everywhere throughout the island. This situation is made even grimmer by a silly (and dangerous) dispute between Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health department and the suppliers of the Indonesian-made human anti-rabies vaccine used in the public system here, the Bandung-based BioFarma. The health authorities said in early April that vaccine supply was sufficient for only two weeks at prevailing levels of demand. Provincial health director Dr Ketut Suarjaya told local media (on Apr. 5): â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are only 9,000

vials left of the VAR, this could last from two to three weeks.

The average number of dog bites a day is roughly 120; one person requires four vials of the vaccine.â&#x20AC;?

The shortage is not one of supply, but of argument over the price of the vaccine. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agreed price was Rp. 155,000 a vial (thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s around US$13). This year, so the health department says, BioFarma is advertising a price per vial of Rp. 78,000 (US$6.50) but is refusing to supply it at that price. The terms of the contractual agreement between the Bali health department and BioFarma are of course invisible in the thickets of dysfunction that pass for public administration here. It would be unreasonable to compel a private company to supply material at sub-economic cost, but it is also criminally stupid to risk running out of essential protection against an invariably fatal disease because of a commercial dispute.

Preventing internationally notifiable diseases is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or it should be â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a function of the central government. Measures such as ensuring there is sufficient vaccine available in areas where it is needed are too important to be left to take their chances in a confusing mishmash of sight-impaired bureaucracies. Someone needs to take responsibility. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that? Do we hear a rush for the doors?

The Bali Animal Welfare Association has an interesting opportunity for designers who would like to showcase their work in a contest to choose designs to feature in BAWAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2015 line of T-shirts and ecologically responsible bags.

BAWA wants designs with international appeal that represent what the animals of Bali mean to the artist and how the artist has been positively affected by the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work to nourish and protect Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dogs and other animals.

Participants can enter up to three original designs and up to five designs will be chosen to be featured on merchandise sold to raise funds at BAWA shops and events, including overseas. Submissions close on Apr. 23. See BAWAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website for details.

Resourceful Crowd Marine and fisheries minister Susi Pudjiastuti turned out at a function in Jakarta on Mar. 31 to help launch a very worthwhile initiative â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Indonesian chapter of Women in Global Business. The actual launch was performed by the new Australian ambassador, Paul Grigson, who replaced Greg Moriarty in December 2014 but remained officially in purdah (as is the form) until he presented his credentials to President Joko Widodo on Mar. 19. Businesses owned and operated by women are one of the fastest growing economic sectors. The international program launched on Mar. 31 supports businesswomen who want to take their products and services to the world by offering a central source of information and resources, support and connection. Minister Susi, formerly an entrepreneur and head of charter airline Susi Air, and Grigson spoke at the gathering along with Indonesian and Australian women entrepreneurs and role models. The global resource centre is sponsored by ANZ, an Australian bank.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to diarize Ambassador Grigson now he can be seen publicly. Readers may remember that when the new British ambassador, the engaging tweeter Moazzam Malik, presented his credentials to President Widodo earlier this year, he forgot his letter from the Queen and had to leap from his limo and run back to get it. We do hope Grigson remembered his billet-doux from the Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Australian viceroy and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to do the same.

Way to Go

Back in the day, when Sex and The City was all the rage with the distaff class, the on-screen antics of Kim Cattrall (Samantha in the series) were matters of very deep personal disinterest. But a little reference in the British newspaper The Guardian recently revealed the real Kim, and she is to our taste. She said this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The men Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been with have all been pleasant-enough looking. But for me, sex starts in the brain. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on lower down doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make me want to possess someone; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually a little twinkle about them or a sense of humour.â&#x20AC;?

Got it! A good giggle is just the ticket.

Comment: Property

Bali Booms… Expat Residents Tremble

Open Season as Nominee Ownership enters uncharted waters These are strange days in Bali.

While increasing tracts of the fabled island are given over to runaway property development of questionable provenance and merit, traffic congestion reaches epic Bangkok and Jakartan proportions, with foreign residents increasingly victimized, even killed as a result of property disputes, unable to obtain protection under the law from the courts or the police – despite all this and more, foreigners still want to come here and stranger yet, want to invest in a home or property here.

Are they mad, greedy fools, or simply being badly advised? Some are certainly one or all of those things and, honest impartial property advice is indeed conspicuous by its scarcity. And yet, there’s a lot more to what’s going on here than meets the eye. Very large sums of overseas money continue to pour into Bali from sources who under no stretch of the imagination could be called naïve and very capable of looking after their financial interests.

So what gives?

March 2015 seems to be a turning point of some sort for Bali.

Things are either going to deteriorate quite rapidly or it will prove to be the moment when the tide turned and Bali, if not Indonesia, began its customary incremental pace toward partial reform and effective application of the law.

Three things of note occurred within days of each other last month: First, Minister of Agrarian and Spatial Planning, Head of the State Land Board, Ferry Baldan announced that foreigners are absolutely not allowed to own an inch of land in Indonesia under the constitution in Indonesia. He went on to state that following a period of 18 months, during which times foreigners should take steps to comply with the law, the government would resume any such land without compensation.

goes up or down. The public-spirited see the Minister’s statement as a long overdue and necessary application of the law that it will benefit everyone in the long run, accepting in good faith the Minister’s assurances that foreigners will not be treated unfairly in the process. The more cynical among us see the statement as being driven by political nationalism that may degenerate into a land grab led by local and possible criminal parties.

Realists see a little of all of the above, hope for the best, and act accordingly.

The second interesting event was that the world’s leading property consultants, Messrs Knight Frank, released their PIRI 100 report showing Bali as the world’s third most popular destination after New York and Aspen as a place for the super rich to invest. The annual Prime International Residential Index (PIRI) tracks the price changes in 100 of the world’s key luxury residential real estate and second-home locations, intended for ultra high-net worth (UHNW) individuals with at least USD30 million in net fortune (excluding primary residence). Bali was the only Asian destination in the top 10, the only other Asian destination in the top 20 being Jakarta, clear indication that Indonesians account for more than their fair share of UNHWs. Clearly, whatever problems ordinary folk looking for a second home in Bali may face, the super rich have no such worries, secure in the belief that whatever the law may say, that in its application they will be OK. Lastly, and perhaps most interestingly and not before time, the worm has turned and the angst-ridden and much-put-upon foreign residents of Bali and Lombok are banding together to address the problems increasing numbers of them are facing.

Opinion as to what this means for the future depends on whom you ask and what they do.

On 26 March a group calling itself K3ni, standing for Kalompek Karja Krisis Nominee Indonesia, comprising affected foreign residents, academics and NGOs all concerned about the problems associated with nominee ownership, organized a meeting to address the issue. Obviously K3ni hit a nerve. 300 people, over 60 percent of them foreign residents, and eight times as many as expected, showed up. The organization is designed to provide a forum for all concerned, to suggest solutions and to represent the views of members to the Minister.

Some think or hope it will all just blow over and it will be business as usual. Others agree, but see it as a God-given opportunity for increased business, either because they seek to take advantage or fund the ensuing property disputes that ensue, or because their businesses are structured to benefit whether the market

The most important announcement made by K3ni was the sheer size of a problem 20 years in the making. The results of a well conducted 2-year survey by reputable academic, NGO and government statistics showed that some 10,500 properties were currently illegally held by foreigners via nominee agreements

valued at some US$8.4 billion; that currently 140 of these were involved in court cases and that an anticipated 5,000 more cases would come before the courts in the period 2015-24.

That’s an awful lot of re-negotiation and huge temptation for the nominees involved, if not other opportunistic parties seeking to interpose themselves and take advantage of the situation.

Undoubtedly some foreign residents will have chosen their nominee well or are plain lucky, but clearly many will not be so fortunate. Unsurprising then, if many foreign owners give up in disgust and sell up at the best price they can get.

What this will do to the property market is anybody’s guess. A lot of sales, for sure. Maybe, as the horrors of the past 15-20 years become more widely known, as they most certainly will, fewer foreigners of relatively modest means will be looking to invest in a retirement or holiday home here.

But then as noted, the rich will not be put off and the high-end of the market will probably continue to prosper. By the same token, properly structured lease properties and the domestic market will probably boom too. The new Double Six property on Kuta Beach is a good example of things to come with a developer successfully transcending the local environment, while offering mid to high-end buyers a blue-chip investment.

Meantime all foreign residents already here, or those contemplating coming here, would do well to consider their respective situation.

Those benefiting from a nominee arrangement most especially.

But not just them. Leases may be good under the law, but anyone with a lease extension may have good cause for concern. For, no matter how good the law is, it’s no use if it is unenforceable in the courts. And that, sadly is the case and is not something likely to change anytime soon.

There is good advise out there, but most of it is compromised and self-serving at best. Just do your due diligence and see how they’ve conducted their business over the past decade and that will give clear indication. Meantime I strongly urge all concerned to use K3ni to maximum advantage. It will be what you make it and may prove a potent power for the good for Bali.

In my observation, nothing is quite as good or as bad in Bali as it may appear at the time. Those who love Bali should stick it out.

Those who are less enamoured of it might think it time to move on, and those thinking of coming here - should think twice. ©ParacelsusAsia ParacelsusAsia@yahoo.com

PARADISE...

IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH WHOOPING COUGH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

EE

FRRING HEAEST T

Rileys Legacy (February 13th – March 18th 2015) If you thought Whooping Cough (Pertussis) was one of those diseases from the deep dark ages that we don’t see anymore, think again.

Riley John Hughes was just four-weeks old when he was diagnosed with pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough.

Sadly just days later, little Riley lost his battle with whooping cough, dying peacefully in his parent’s arms while at Princess Margaret Hospital in Perth on March 18th 2015. He was just 32 days old.

Riley was too young to have started the infant vaccination, which commences from when the babies are 6 weeks old.

Immunisation against whooping cough works well in protecting babies and young children (it is part of the routine baby vaccine schedule), but the effect wears off over the years. Preschool children and teenagers still need to receive booster vaccines against this disease.

Whooping cough is an infection of the nose and throat and lungs, which causes long bursts of coughing.

In young children the coughing spell often ends in a ‘whooping’ noise when the child can ¿nally take a breath in.

Children can have several coughing spells each hour, including while they are sleeping. They can also go on having coughing spells for many weeks (up to about 3 months for some).

Very young babies, older children and adults can have whooping cough without the ‘whooping’ sound.

What is whooping cough?

• Whooping cough is an infection caused by a bacterium, Bordetella pertussis. Outbreaks of whooping cough were ¿rst described in the 16th Century.

• The coughing spells seem to be caused by thick mucous, which is dif¿cult to cough up.

• Pertussis kills about 250,000 children worldwide each year. Epidemics of whooping cough occur about every 3 to 5 years.

• Babies are at most risk of having severe health problems from whooping cough. About 1 in 200 babies who get whooping cough before they are 6 months old will die from the infection.

How does it spread?

• The infection spreads by droplets that are coughed or sneezed out. These droplets can be breathed in or they can be carried to the nose by hands, which come in contact with the droplets (eg through handling used tissues or by touching surfaces which have the droplets on them).

• Whooping cough is very easy to catch. 70% to 100% of people living in the same house as someone with whooping cough will get the infection unless they have been immunized or have had the infection.

• A child or adult who catches whooping cough will usually start to be unwell about 7 to 10 days after being exposed to the infection.

• A person with whooping cough is highly infectious in the ¿rst few days (when they seem to only have a ‘cold’).

Signs and symptoms of whooping cough • The illness usually starts like a ‘cold’ with runny nose and a cough, which is not like the spells of coughing later in the illness.

• After several days the long spells of coughing start, causing dif¿culty breathing during the spells. The child will have many quick coughs in one spell. There can be several spells of coughing each hour (with an average of 25 coughing spells per day).

• Young children often have a whoop after the coughing spell (when they can ¿nally breathe in). They might

vomit any food or drink that they have recently swallowed, during the cough or soon afterwards.

• Very young babies may not cough, but they may just stop breathing for a minute or longer many times per day. If they cough there might not be the whoop.

• Adults and older children may not whoop, but they will have coughing spells and they may feel tired (the coughing can interfere with sleeping), and generally unwell. It can be many weeks before it is recognized that the older child or adult has whooping cough.

• Finally, after several weeks or more, the coughing spells start happening less often and they stop happening about 2 to 3 weeks later. If the person gets a cold soon after having whooping cough, the coughing can start again for a while (much shorter than the original illness).

Treatment • If your child has been exposed to whooping cough, see your doctor, as your child might need an antibiotic to protect him from becoming infected. This will kill the bacteria but it does not stop the coughing which may go on for many weeks, unless the antibiotic is given very early in the illness.

• Young babies with whooping cough are often so ill that they need hospital treatment. Feeding can be a problem because they often vomit after coughing.

A baby may need tube feeding.

• Cough suppressing medicines may be helpful for adults but should never be used for young children with whooping cough. Part of the reason for coughing is that there is sticky mucous in the airways which needs to be coughed up.

C/He/I-15 April 15

C/He/I-18 March 15

Immunization • Immunization of babies against whooping cough protects most children completely, although a small number of immunized children may have a milder illness with whooping cough.

• The immunization is given at the same time as immunizing them against tetanus, diphtheria and polio (at 2, 4 and 6 months, 18 months and 4 years) • Immunization is also recommended for o adults before planning a pregnancy o parents of newborn babies o adults working with young children o adults at age 50 years (when combined tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis [whooping cough] vaccine can be used instead of diphtheriatetanus).

Preventing the spread of whooping cough • Any person with whooping cough should be excluded from child care, kindergarten and school until 5 days after starting treatment, or if not treated, for 3 weeks from the start of symptoms.

• Children who are unwell should not be at childcare, kindergarten or school even if they are no longer infectious. The teachers are not able to provide the care that sick children need.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE APRIL 15 - APRIL 29, 2015

The big news as we head into this next fortnight is that Pluto goes retrograde now until the end of November. What this means is that we get an extended period of time to integrate these past 6 months of intensified transformation. Our new moon is on the 19th in late degrees of Aries and is followed the next day by the Sun’s entry into Taurus. Mars also in Taurus until the middle of May makes a harmonious trine to Pluto on this new moon and a square to Jupiter in Leo. We are in the process of grounding the energies that came through during the March/April portal and making new headway with the next phase of the journey. Remember that although the exact Uranus/Pluto squares are complete, they do stay in close proximity to the square throughout the next couple of years. Mars is the lower octave trigger of Pluto and in a fellow earth sign Taurus, aligns our intentions and brings them into practical manifestation. The challenging factor coming from Jupiter is to do it in a joyful and fun way as we’ve now learned that the old stressful way just wasn’t working any longer. Mercury and Neptune working together bring compassion and understanding to our communications and mental endeavors. Relationships could still be a little tense as we are all feeling sensitive and a little raw and vulnerable after this enormous period of activation and realignments. The implementation of newly acquired information will take some time as we continue to digest its meaning.

NEW MOON 28 Aries 25 April 19, 2015 2:58 a.m.

This new moon is in your sign and brings a movement for you physically. You may wish to start on some new form of exercise regime or just simply get out and about more than normal. This will help to clear your mind and to help make sense of these past few weeks.

With the Sun now in Taurus you may be making practical plans for your work projects and bringing the new into your career aspirations. Money is probably flowing more effortlessly now or will very soon. Your challenges are coming through the children in your life or your own creative expression and will see you standing firmly in your convictions.

The new moon is in your polar opposite sign of Aries and deeply influences your relationships over the coming month. Transformation continues in the home environment or with changes that include family members. As you ground in through the deepest part of yourself and your connection to the earth a solid foundation is created that brings harmony to your personal community. The larger community offers opportunity for growth and evolution and yet you may feel the challenges emanating from there during this moon cycle. Who you are in relationship to your friends and the community remains in the co-creation stages for now. There is time as you learn to adapt.

Although this new moon is keeping you spiritually attuned the Sun’s entry into your sign will bring a round of personal and very physical changes to your life, including your bodily image. Travel plans can now start to manifest into reality and for you the growth still occurs in the home or nurture area of your life. Family members could be playing an important role for you at this time and bringing a much needed focus on self-nurturing and your motives for doing what you do. With a higher purpose or perspective in mind, you are now able to include more of the people in your life in your plans.

As the sun influences relationship strength you are ready now to talk through the deeper issues that have been on your mind and that will need to be exposed as you ready yourself to move forward with your work projects. This is the cycle to throw caution to the wind and to begin what has until now only been an idea. Pioneering new modalities can be a daunting task and also invigorating at the same time.

Put you own brand or label on this. You may be challenged by the existing model or by those who hold it in place, and yet expand you must and to dare to be your own authority.

Venus in your sign is bringing a lot of self-love your way and with the Taurus influence in your chart strong in the spiritual realms you are possibly on your own personal intimacy journey at this time. The new moon is bringing community based changes and a more independent approach to your friendships and daily interactions. The endings have been powerfully strong for you and this probably brings that need for some alone or down time to fully integrate the ramifications of these changes. You are solidly grounding within your own being and this will bring a change to the way you communicate with others and a stronger conviction.

As your relationships transform within your home or community environment you are ready to expose your more authentic self and the value system that has recently been modified. It isn’t always easy to bring this newness to a community that has an opinion or a perspective coming from the old interpretation of your actions. This new moon brings you the conviction to begin anew within your career or business profession. Your goals were defined during the recent eclipse portal and you are now ready to bring your sensitivity to the table and to honor it as a part of your decision making operating system. A job well done.

As Jupiter bounds forward so too does your thinking and the need for adventure. It could be your work or your health that yet brings challenge to this movement. The deep transformation for you has been financial and to the core of your belief systems. You will continue to see changes to your health as you allow the grounding of these new ideas to affect you at the cellular level. There may be a teacher within who is bursting with enthusiasm to share what has been your own personal journey. This new moon allows you the opportunity to present yourself in your own way, through your own integrity and personal expression.

C/He/G-18 March 15

C/He/I-15 April 15

The children in your life will show you the way to adapt through play and creativity, if you allow them. Come into your body and experience the sensuality of touch and your connection to the earth through your bare feet on her. You are a living breathing example of the changes that we are all embodying through these past couple of years of deep transformation. This moon cycle brings a new foundation for you; one based on your own expression and true authenticity; words that have been freely distributed of late and yet ring true for you. Whether you like it or not, you are on the leading edge.

Jupiter remains as the harbinger of great change in your life as is it bounds forward in your sign. You are recreating yourself and this means your personal appearance as well and you may well adopt a new style or personal presentation. Challenges are a part of life and if they appear to be coming from colleagues or bosses let this not deter you from your own course of action. If endings are inevitable then it is probably better to move on and come into alignment with your own calling at this time.

Remember your image is about what matters to you as opposed to what matters to others.

This Aries moon cycle brings movement and a more direct approach to communication. As you integrate the recent transformation within the foundation of your being you may wish to spend more time indulging in the comfort of home. Simply relaxing in your own nurturing environment allows grace to descend and permeate your physical body.

Relationships may demand attention and yet what is most important now is that you stay true to yourself and your own needs and expressing them in an honest and forthright way. You play a strong role within your community and that brings responsibility. Let this be from an open and honest heart and expressed through joy.

This will continue to be a transformative cycle for you Virgo, as the new moon brings your deepest intimacy needs into the emotional realms. Are you missing out on some very deep opportunities that could change the way you interact with others? Travel plans and the need for more practical or experiential adventures are coming into form and made tangible. Pluto has brought a more personal approach to life and a presentation that is grounded in your own motives and integrity. You will stand firm in this as the work continues on the deeper levels of your own psyche. Some changes are not apparent on the outside.

The changes for you will be very tangible this cycle and you will no doubt experience some solid communication feed-back from your friends and community members. You have work to do that involves a certain sense of personality and yet you must stay with both feet on the earth and speak in practical, direct and grounded ways.

You are a force within your environment whether you acknowledge it or not. Continue to allow the new ideas to inspire and provoke spontaneous response. With direct links to the unconscious realms you are able to intuit your surroundings with ease and now you will respond in the most obvious of ways to the energetic weather.

Siapa... ?

by Bill Dalton

library and orphanage pro¿les. Choose a school or library by checking our Facebook page or just ask where the need is the most urgent. I can then nominate which school is to receive the donation. After a school or library is selected, you purchase an inexpensive book, ¿ll in the donation Book Plate, we insert the Book Plate for you and deliver the book.

We don’t accept cash donations - just books!

How many libraries and schools is BFBP serving?

Anita Scheeres:

Books for Bali Project Anita Scheeres is an independent bookseller who owns and operates the Ganesha bookshops in Ubud and Sanur. In 1986, Anita and her husband Ketut opened Ubud’s ¿rst bookshop on Monkey Forest Road when it was just a footpath for cows, backpackers and farmers. By 1991, she had outgrown the little store and moved up to Ubud’s main street. In 2001, the bookshop moved again to the corner location opposite the post of¿ce where it remains to this day. Over the years Anita has built a thriving book business that sells new and quality secondhand books from subjects ranging from gardening to astrology. In 2010, they opened another shop in Sanur. Anita initiated the Books for Bali Project in 2004, which donates books to 40 libraries and schools in Denpasar, Gianyar, Singaraja, Tabanan and East Bali.

What gave you the idea of initiating the Books for Bali Project?

The idea ¿rst presented itself way back in 1996 when I took my son to our local SD in Ubud for First Class. The room was bare except for a few tables and chairs, no pictures on the walls, no writing paper and no books. And to my horror - no school library! It set my plan in motion. Initially I donated books at random to children and schools who needed them. My primary aim from the start was to put storybooks in the hands of children and on the shelves of school libraries. I started the program alone with the help of my bookshop staff. I now devote one day per week to the Books for Bali Project.

Does the project get support from NGOs and local or national government agencies?

The project runs purely on the donation of books. We do not collect money nor do we seek funding from any government or private sources. The beauty of it is in its simplicity. People bring books to donate or purchase books in my bookshops and donate them to the school or library of their choice. It is as easy as that!

Do you work in coordination with other organizations or foundations?

We work with East Bali Poverty Project, Bali Children’s Project, Bali Wise (Role Foundation), Sandi Kresna Foundation, ABC Children’s Foundation and The Bali Education Fund by way of donating books to these organizations for distribution to the schools and children they represent.

Who donates books to your project?

People discover the project through being customers of Ganesha Bookshop. When they see what we do, they often buy a book or two to donate. Many people come back year after year to purchase books to donate. I keep everyone informed by way of our Facebook page.

How does the program work?

It’s very easy to support the Books for Bali Project. Just come into a Ganesha Bookshop in either Ubud or Sanur and have a look at our project folder, which lists school,

I am now donating books to 40 different schools and libraries around Bali. The program is growing every year and although it means a lot of work for me, it’s really gratifying to know that it is spreading far and wide. The children bene¿tting from the project are aged 6 to 12 years old.

Do you also donate books to remote and underprivileged communities?

The ¿rst donations I ever made were to the East Bali Poverty Project. We are still donating books at least three times a year to them, which is really making a difference to the people of East Bali. We also donate to two libraries in North Bali, one a public library in Lovina and the other a smaller one in Kalisada. Both libraries are making a positive contribution to the literacy in their communities.

Ubud. [090] Always remember that you’re bigger than the moment, you’re more than anything that could ever happen to you.

Do you provide books to all kinds of libraries?

I am happy to donate books to any school that has a dedicated space for a library or reading room. We only donate books to schools and libraries where the books can be shared by many and looked after properly by schoolteachers or quali¿ed assistants. That way a donation of a few books goes a long way. The facility must show willingness to encourage the children to read for pleasure and not just for study. I also donate books to orphanages in Denpasar, Medewi and Gianyar and schools that serve children with Special Needs like Sjaki-Tari-Us in Ubud.

What language is donated books written in?

We have some schools that do bene¿t from the donation of English books, but the majority of donated books are in Bahasa Indonesia, the most important language for children to read in. We also have quite a lot of bilingual books (English/Indonesian), though it’s often quite dif¿cult to have available a good range with the language written correctly in both languages. I spend a great deal of time searching through the bilingual books in Gramedia and buying sample books to read at home before I place an order with the publishers. There’s no point in donating books that have incorrect English in them!

C/He/I-15 April 15

Do school curriculums support the program by requiring students to write book reports?

Schools do not have to actively use the books in classes.

The idea is that the books are available before, after and during school for the children to enjoy on their own. It’s important to me that the children pick up the books for their personal enjoyment. This will help create a reading society.

We know this because thanks to the dispute over brain aging, whether the cortex ever made any new cells, in 2005 Dr. Jonas Frisen, a Swedish stem cell biologist from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, determined to find a new way of figuring out how old human cells really are. Existing techniques depended on tagging DNA with chemicals, but this was far from perfect. Dr. Frisen remembered that the nuclear weapons tested above ground in 1963 injected a pulse of radioactive carbon 14 into the atmosphere. Breathed in by plants worldwide and eaten by animals and people, carbon 14 from these explosions got incorporated into the DNA of cells every time a cell divided and DNA duplicated. From this Dr Frisen was able to determine cells’ ages in various tissues, based on the extent of carbon 14 enrichment.

Aged 70 & the Body of a 10-year Old?

Whatever your age, you may be encouraged to learn your body is a lot younger. In fact, even if you’re middle aged or older, most of you may be just 10 years old. That’s the average age of your cells being constantly replaced, although the DNA stays the same from the moment the cell is created.

Body & Spirit

cerebral cortex, the inner lens cells of the eye, the cells of the inner ear and perhaps certain muscle cells of the heart. That means they do not regenerate and we have a finite, depleting number of them and resulting in the degeneration with age of the organ concerned.

But if the body remains so perpetually youthful and vigorous, and so eminently capable of renewing its tissues, why don’t we live a lot longer, if not forever?

Sadly, or not, it doesn’t work this way because a cell’s parent DNA is translated to the new cells and these mutations are passed on. Meanwhile, each time a cell divides, the telomere caps on the chromosomes get shorter, and limiting the number of times a cell can divide.

This is the reason our bodies physically age and eventually we die.

What can you do to keep your body cells in top condition for as long as possible?

For a start pretty much what you’ve known all along:

An excellent first step is to get regular physical exercise.

Having validated the method with various tests, he and Dr Gage showed that exercise is one of the best ways his colleagues were able to publish their results of their for adults to grow new brain cells; plus staying active mentally – reading, doing crossfirst tests with a few body tisword puzzles, learning new sues, showing that rib muscles things, working part-time and taken from people in their late socializing, all help to keep your 30’s have an average age of brain cells strong.

For the rest of your body the key The average age of those cells ways to keeping your cells in the main body of the gut, healthy are the obvious ones however, is 15.9 years. that keep you healthy: The Karolinska team then turned to the brain, the renewal of whose cells has been a matter of so much controversy. The prevailing belief was that the brain does not generate new neurons once its structure is complete, except in two specific regions, the olfactory bulb governing sense of smell, and the hippocampus, where initial memories of faces and places are made.

However brain regeneration, or neurogenesis, in humans was discovered in 1998 by Dr. Fred Gage and his colleagues at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California.

They found that new neurons are created in the hippocampus, a brain region involved memory. The old consensus was further challenged by Dr. Elizabeth Gould of Princeton, who reported finding new neurons in the cerebral cortex, along with the elegant idea that each day’s memories might be recorded in the neurons generated that day. Dr. Frisen’s method enabled all regions of the brain to be dated to see if new neurons are generated. To date he has found cells from the visual cortex do not renew, while the cells of the cerebellum do.

Eating a healthy diet without a lot of simple sugars; relax and finding ways to relieve stress (stress is so deleterious to the brain that it should be a top priority); avoiding environmental toxins as much as possible using natural cleaning products/

Stem Cell & Telomere Therapy The essential reason we age and die is the shortening of our telomeres, which govern the replenishment of cells.

Very recently, remedies have been developed that could possibly alleviate, abolish, or reverse this inevitable fate by activating an enzyme called telomerase, which may help maintain telomere length. One such remedy, a nutraceutical called TA-65 has the potential to extend health and life span. Unfortunately, this remedy also carries with it the distinct potential for promoting cancer so is not as yet a realistic option.

The good news is that modern advances in medical research are leading to unprecedented discoveries into the actual mechanisms of human aging that lead to more rational strategies for intervention. Even 15 years ago, Another contentious issue was whether the heart gener- few researchers would have predicted that such techates new muscle cells after birth. The conventional view nologies were even possible. However anyone considerthat it did not has been challenged and Dr. Frisen con- ing using these new and unregulated therapies should carefully consider the trade-off of risks versus benefits. firms that the heart does generate new cells.

Although people may think of their body as a fairly permanent structure, most of it is in a state of constant flux, as old cells are discarded and new ones generated in their place. Each kind of tissue has its own turnover time, depending in part on the workload performed by its cells. The cells lining the stomach, as noted, last only five days. The red blood cells, bruised and battered after traveling nearly 1,000 miles through the maze of the body’s circulatory system, last only 120 days or so.

The epidermis, or surface layer of the skin, is recycled every two weeks or so. As for the liver, the detoxifier of all the natural plant poisons and drugs that pass a person’s lips, its life is quite short. The average adult human liver has a turnover time of 300 to 500 days.

Other tissues have lifetimes measured in years, not days, but are still far from permanent. Even our bones endure nonstop makeover. The entire human skeleton is thought to be replaced every 10 years or so in adults, as twin construction crews of bone-dissolving and bonerebuilding cells combine to remodel it.

About the only pieces of the body that last a lifetime, on present evidence, seem to be the neurons of the

Hanging in the balance is not only the life of the individual patient, but the risk of backlash against the whole emerging field of interventional gerontology. So it’s way too early for this, but it’s coming.

Meantime apart from the obvious, there’s a lot you can do nutritionally to improve cognitive and heart functions.

Other than that, best hang on to the cells you’ve got.

Doing that runs the gamut avoiding drunkenness, glue sniffing and getting into fights, which I’m sure none of you do any more, to not getting stressed. An altogether much taller order.

ACQUA PERLA SPA Watching the old Double Six Disco torn down and replaced with an ultra modern structure took a very long time, taking my dog for a run on the beach in mornings allowed me to watch its progress. Recently I visited the new Double Six Resort to check out the new Acqua Perla Spa on the second Àoor. Keeping in style with the resort, the spa is ultra modern and very chic.

From the moment I entered the spa, I was dazzled with the subtle lighting and colours.

An intimate alcove in the reception area is a comfortable place to fill out the personal assessement and test the massage oils as the receptionist explains the treatments.

I was eager to try out the Sensorial Hydrotrail followed by a Hammam.

I was escorted to an ultra clean white locker room with lockers that looked like they belonged in a jigsaw puzzle neatly ¿tted together. After slipping into my swimsuit and Àannel bathrobe I was met by my therapist waiting outside for me. She accompanied me into the hydro tunnel and explained what would happen. The lights would change colour and when they turned red I was to move on to the next section.

She told me to close my eyes because a rush of water would pour down over me while several small geysers bubbled up water from the floor.

This lasted for a few minutes until the lights turned red then I moved to the next chamber where a contoured chair sat. My therapist came in to explain how the chair works. When activated, jets of warm water would massage my lower back while jets massaged my calves and the sides of my thighs were pummelled with strong jets. I pushed the button and let the water do its magic on my body.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid!

By Vaughan Hatch

The Culture of Political Lip Service – “Bali Clean Green” I’ve just returned from being in my home country of New Zealand with my extended Balinese family. Apart from raving how each day seemed like an eternity of Nyepi, Bali’s famous day of silence, they were awe-struck by the clean and green.

In NZ, there is hardly any visible rubbish on the streets, beaches, parks or waterways (if there was it was probably blown out of bins by Wellington’s notorious winds); and even dog owners had to pick up their own animal’s ‘litter’ in wee plastic poop bags. If anyone doesn’t follow the rules, it’s a hefty fine or a jail sentence: and it’s enforced almost militarily.

They were intrigued also to learn that the government rubbish service only collects once a week (most Indonesians complain if their rubbish is not picked up at least twice a week here).

They were also impressed to see how quickly and efficient the truck and the burly rubbish boys in fluoro safety vests pick up from each house, averaging only seconds as the truck pretty much never stops rolling on down the road.

However, they were most surprised to learn that rubbish collectors earn up to $17 an hour: potentially more in a day compared what rubbish collectors earn in a month in Bali, and without all the filth and stigma associated with it.

NZ residents pay for their rubbish collection through their annual property rates, which may include water and gas depending on the region. If you rent a property, the landlord pays not the tenant. In Bali, a rubbish collection is still an ‘option’. If you rent, you have to sort out your waste disposal for yourself. Landowners don’t even pay rates, just a minimal land tax.

In NZ, collecting rubbish is quite a respectable profession for young people, and since it’s so high tech, you don’t really even get your hands dirty. In Indonesia, it’s at the bottom of the barrel where elderly workers risk their lives – potentially contracting cholera, typhus or a needle stick injury – as they sit on top of a rickety, smelly, open-topped truck for hours on end with no safety gear or even gloves.

So what do all those government officials learn when they go to countries like NZ for lengthy comparative studies? My Balinese family probably learnt more in a week. “Bali Clean Green” may just be the best example of political lip service this island has seen this century.

Restaurant Review

Peace and Relaxation!

SANAK is a paradise of relaxation. It is in the hills below Munduk, in northern Bali. After passing through Bedugul, and climbing the mountain you drive along the ridge [many places to stop for a coffee whilst taking in the breathtaking views] to Munduk. Downhill towards Seririt, the way to Sanak is well sign-posted. At the village of Kayu Putih a 1km turnoff to the right takes you to Sanak.

You have been transported to a peaceful haven. The restaurant area has been hand crafted from wood from Kalimantan, as are the 10 bungalows that comprise this amazing complex. It adds to the ‘back to nature’ feel about the whole place as you gaze down the valley, across rice paddies and natural bush.

with an olive-lemon dressing. To this can be added strips of seared tuna or beef tenderloin.

Soup can be Indonesian [traditional Soto Ayam of turmeric and coconut milk scented chicken soup laced with glass noodles], Balinese [seafood with calamari, shrimp and fish with banana stem] or International [tomato and bell peppers with chilli].

Restaurant

: Sanak Kitchen

Address

: Kayuputih, Munduk.

Telephone

: 081.139.7758.

Bali’s current Hamburger craze has even spread to healthy Sanak where you can order one that uses beef tenderloin with your choice of emmental or mozzarella cheese. A tad healthier is the Vegetable Curry, with tofu.

Open

: Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Smoking Area

: Yes.

Grilling is probably the healthiest way to prepare meat or seafood and at the Sanak Kitchen you have quite an array of choices. Seafood is calamari, fillet of local fish or a whole fish [big enough for two persons]. Meat can be organically raised chicken or tenderloins of beef or pork. All grills are served with your choice of side dishes; locally grown jasmine rice which can be steamed or fried, fresh salad or grilled vegetables, potato done anyway or a Sanak cap cay.

Parking

: At entrance.

Price

: Rp. 700,000 for two [+ drinks]

Credit Cards

: All major.

Food

: Organic.

Wine

: Small list.

Accompanying sauce can be Bali’s own Sambal Matah, an Asian Pesto, Chinese favourite Sweet and Sour, Red Wine or Lemon-Garlic butter.

Service

: Country style, with a smile.

Atmosphere

: Total peace and relaxation.

Gulai Kambing is on most Indonesian menus, but of varying quality. Here it is very good. A ceramic bowl contains the ambrosial broth of lemongrass, Kaffir lime, galangal, ginger, white turmeric, clove, coriander, cumin, candle nut, nutmeg, cinnamon and garlic. The lamb pieces have been cooked in this broth and then, just prior to serving, coconut milk is added. Also on the plate is a mound of coconut rice, a perfect balance! The rice has been organically raised in the rice paddies in front of the restaurant. A great example of eating healthy food that tastes great!

Overall

: Total peace and relaxation.

Total silence!

The food fits the image. Basic, healthy and tasty! Wherever possible local produce is used, that includes organic vegetables from the markets of Bedugul and fresh seafood from the fishing villages along the coast of north Bali. Added produce comes from the Sanak gardens and rice paddies.

Babaganoush [an Arabic dish of cooked eggplant mixed with onions, tomatoes, olive oil and various seasonings] comes from the Sanak garden, it is combined with a hummus dip. A simple Bruschetta, tomato, mozzarella and pesto on toast and a serve of Spiced Tuna with that unique Balinese peanut sauce for sate, are simple snacks you can enjoy with a drink.

Entrees are all interesting. Top of the bill is a Tuna Tataki.

High grade fresh tuna is just seared then coated with sesame seeds and served with a wasabi mayonnaise. It is easy to eat healthy food when it is like this! Pumpkin Mousse is with an unusual strawberry balsamic dressing, and is served with garlic prawns. The Lumpia Trio is three different shaped crisp parcels, each with its own dipping sauce [pictured], Vegetables [sweet and sour], Chicken [peanut sate sauce] and Prawn [hoisin]. The casings are thin and crisp, the ample serve of sauces quite intense, finger-licking good!

Salads can be just a collection of locally grown organic produce with a lemon and garlic dressing or a Young Papaya Salad tossed with apple, mango and grated carrot. This is served with crisp chicken wontons, all tied up like those Thai ‘moneybags’. A larger salad is available for those who want to make a full meal of same. A very organic mix of tomato, chickpeas, carrot, cucumber and beetroot is tossed

QUICK REVIEW

As the sole diner is a rare phenomenon at Sanak there are a range of large dishes to be shared, apart from the Grilled Whole Fish mentioned earlier. Mixed Skewers contains those of beef, pork, chicken and seafood, served with jasmine rice, urab and sambal. Pepes Ikan & Ayam, fish and chicken wrapped in banana leaves, served with rice that has been steamed with lemongrass, and sambals. With a full days prior notice you can enjoy a Whole Roasted Chicken [with curry rice] or the Balinese classics; Chicken or Duck Betutu [with coconut scented rice].

Desserts include local; Balinese [coconut pandan crepe, cassava cake and black rice pudding], Indonesian [Pisang Goreng, banana fritter with caramelized palm sugar and vanilla ice cream] or International [Crème Brulee].

Sanak is a wonderful place to switch off from the rest of the world, total relaxation, wholesome food of the highest quality, and a friendly level of service to round out the package.

Non-smoking Area : Yes.

Update Il Lido @ Warisan brings Singapore’s award winning Italian chef Beppe de Vito [Garibaldi, then Il Lido on Sentosa Island] to Bali. Fine dining Italian cuisine at a level not previously seen before in Bali.

Entrees are large enough to share so a selection of different tastes is recommended. Grilled Octopus with Nduja [a spicy spreadable Italian pork sausage], Scallops combined with Asparagus in a lobster sauce, Sevruga Caviar with angel hair pasta, Pork Loin with apple and truffle salad, Zucchini Flowers with smoked scarmorza [Italian cheese similar to mozzarella], Tortelli filled with ricotta cheese served Amatriciana style [pictured], Tagliatelle with quail ragù and smoked ricotta and Truffle Cheese Ravioli with veal jus are but a few of the tempting starters. The mains go to anther level. Wagyu Beef Tagliata with truffle potatoes and asparagus, A Duck Trio of Confit Leg, Smoked Breast and Foie Gras, Baby Lobsters with saffron tagliolini or maybe just some simple classic Italian such as a Veal Ossobuco with saffron risotto. Dessert has to be Italian, Tiramisu with coffee cream and chocolate pearls or Strawberry Sabayon with vanilla pannacotta are both about as Italian as you can get! A quick but above average lunch menu is also available [weekdays only]. Il Lido is sited where Warisan has been for the past 25 years on Jln, Raya Kerobokan, it marks a landmark of Bali dining. Now the new benchmark for Italian fine fining!

Happy Chappy is soon to open on Jln. Braban in Kerobokan. The name suggests a happy place and that is what is intended. The cuisine will be simple Chinese, basically Cantonese, but of the highest quality and at reasonable prices. The management at Happy Chappy has done it all before! Max Kerthyasa [Biku] and David Kearns [Ibah, TheVillas, Sentosa and Sarong] are heading the project, so success is almost guaranteed. In the kitchen will be the full crew from the well known Chinese restaurant at Jakarta’s Four Seasons Hotel [now closed for total renovation]. Joining them is experienced chef Bill Collyer now taking a F&B role sourcing product and overseeing quality. Great consistent Chinese has been a mystery by its absence in Bali, a fact commented on by all. Now we may have it, and at a reasonable price as well. Get ready for DimSum Sundays [purchased via trolleys straight from the kitchen, in traditional Cantonese style] and a few drinks at the Dragon’s Den Bar. Air-con and plenty of parking, what else could you want?

AJO is Sardinian. It is yet another unique ethnic cuisine for Bali. Family run it is as traditional as you can get. But it is also very hard to find unless you are specifically directed to it. It is on Jln. Camplung Tanduk, Seminyak, which runs off one of those streets with an ever-changing name [Gado-gado to Dhyana Pura to Abimanyu to whatever?]. The restaurant is beachside, in front of and separate from long time Bali hotel Puri Saron. The easy way if not by car is to approach from the beach walkway, if by car or bike then park in the hotel car park and walk through the surprisingly extensive hotel grounds. Sardinia, the island off the west coast of Italy, naturally includes many Italian standards amongst their daily fare but as with all regions of Italy also presents their own unique dishes as well.

Pani Frattau is special bread, dipped in a meat broth, covered with a tomato sauce, parmesan and pecorino cheeses then served with a poached egg on top. Fregola Dentice & Arselle is dried couscous of semolina cooked in a fish soup, served with clams. Tagliere Salumi, Formaggi & Panadas is a pie of assorted Sardinian salami, cheese and pork.

Caprino is fresh goat cheese melted on a slice of special bread with tomato and walnuts.

Culurgionis is Sardinian ravioli; sachets stuffed with potato, onion, cheese and mint, the sauce of herbs and butter. The Tagliatelle allo Scoglio is that pasta tossed with crab, squid, octopus and prawn. The Sardinian Gnocchi [Malloreddus] is served with a pork and tomato sauce. Completely different!

Nyala Beach Club is at the recently re-branded Fairmont Hotel in Jn. Kasuma Sari, Sanur Beach. The hotel was the former Regent. The hamburger craze, tipped in my Wrap of 2014 to soon engulf Bali, has even spread to this 5 star resort. However with well known Bali identity, Chris Patzold [he was the opening chef at the now famous Ku de Ta] as Executive Chef, the burgers served here are more than just a bit different! A Wagyu Burger with blue cheese and tomato relish, Suckling Pig with cassava leaves, Chicken with brie, cranberry and tomato mayonnaise and for the vegetarians; Falafel, raita and green hummus.

They make a nice luncheon snack by the beach, All are served on a sesame seed bun with a bowl of wedges on the side.

Dim Sum Inc. is a controversial restaurant. Offering dim sum on a 24 hour basis already suggests that it is more of a night hangout and it certainly does get very busy late at night.

Relaxed is one description or laid back but to some it is more suitable to lazy. However late at night that is what many people, particularly the younger generation, want. The fact that you can actually find somewhere that serves dim sums steamed or deep fried, at 3.00 a.m. on the way home, is quite some achievement on its own. Situated at the western end of Jln. Dewi Sri, Legian, almost at the Sunset Road junction you can order steamed Dumplings of prawn meat and chives, unusual Steamed Buns stuffed with a chicken curry mix, or a plate of mixed dim sum. In very Jakarta fashion they also offer many other Asian dishes included a few that you would never see in the supposed country of origin [Tom Yum Fried Rice? That is very Jakarta where many dishes get the ‘Thai’ tag whether they are or not? Tom Yum is a soup.]. Definitely only a late night hangout and then simple dim sum is best. Or for that evening when you just must have one more drink, and something, anything, to eat.

Massimo has established his Sanur restaurant [Jln. Danau Tamblingan] as Bali’s leading budget priced Italian. He has now been in business for 11 years, and it is almost always a full house. However not everyone knows about the incredible Italian bread that Massimo bakes every day. My favourite is the very healthy multi grain high-fibre Pagnotta. It is an amazing bread style. Possesses great taste and it seems to stay fresh forever [well 5-6 days]. However the secret is to pre-order as all the Massimo bread sells quickly, almost as soon as it comes out of the wood-fired ovens at midday, every day.

SAFE CHILDHOODS Looking back now, I realize that I was fortunate to have grown up in a safe and happy family without any traumas or abuse.

When I became an adult I heard many friends con¿de to the abuse they had suffered and usually underwent therapy to overcome the trauma. I never realized how lucky I was until I got older. I realize that having a happy childhood enabled me to achieve success in my adult life. Every child deserves to grow up safely. According to UNICEF, for many years children in developing countries have been the target of abuse from individuals known to the children and organized criminal organizations, particularly those living or working on the streets, disabled and orphaned. Safe Childhoods Foundation, an Indonesian based charity is taking steps to create a safer future for all children in Indonesia.

Ayu (not her real A name) wasn’t so n lucky growing up in lu a small village in Indonesia.

She was I tall ta for her age and had h long black hair.

When she was ten, W a man came to her village and after v seeing her playing s outside, spoke to o her parents for a h long time. Her father told Ayu that she must go with this man and do what he asked, that he wanted her to become a dancer. She loved dancing and was happy to go with the man waving goodbye to her parents.

During the long drive, the man talked to her, telling her that she would like the place where she was going and she would have new friends and eat delicious food. She had never travelled to a city before so thought this was a big adventure. They arrived at a big house and as they entered she met two new men who smiled approvingly at her and gave her a cake. Shyly she ate her cake and was on her best behaviour wanting to please the men who would make her a famous dancer. When she ¿nished one of the men took her to the back of the house and unlocked a door and pushed her inside and slammed the door shut behind her. In the dimly lit room she saw 4 other girls about her age huddled on mattresses on the Àoor. They stared at Ayu with fear in their eyes and pity. The other girls had only arrived the day before. In soft whispers the girls expressed their fears. The next day the girls travelled for a long time until they reached a foreign place where the people looked different and spoke another language. They didn’t know where they were but were scared.

Ayu was taken to a hotel room and given to a man inside who didn’t speak Indonesian. The man who brought her to the hotel told her to go take a nice warm bath to relax her then told her she would stay with this man for a week and left. As the foreign man lay on top of her, he hurt her, but when she started screaming and crying he tied a gag over her mouth. Every day he hurt her.

At the end of the week the ¿rst man came to take her away to a nurse in a small clinic and put what she called ‘stitches’ down there. Later she’s taken to another hotel room and given to another man who hurts her repeatedly. She cries until she runs out of tears. But this man is angry saying that she’s not a virgin and wants his money back.

Returning to a room she meets her friends again ¿nding some comfort. But one of the girls is sick with something called HIV. Ayu is afraid she has this sickness also. A woman tells the girls that they have a debt to repay and must stay until it’s repaid. The more men the faster they can return home. For three years Ayu was taken to hotel rooms and used by countless men sometimes up to 25 men a day until she became numb all over physically, emotionally and mentally. Her handlers began giving her drugs to keep her sedated and compliable. She became a little zombie with vacant eyes.

One day police burst into the hotel room, which frightened her but was pleased to see the man she was with being handcuffed and taken away. The police were gentle and kind to her as they took her away and brought her to a safe place, where other girls like her were staying. After being bathed, fed and checked by a doctor, she was told by a gentle caring woman that Ayu was now safe from the bad men and that nobody would hurt her. Today, she is living happily in a safe house with other girls like her, being educated and nurtured. One day soon, Ayu hopes to see her family again when she feels stronger and able to tell her story.

(This is a ¿ctional account of actual events.)

The mission statement of Safe Childhoods “A local Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) whose mission is to combat crimes against Children in Developing countries.

Crimes against children include: • Transnational Child Sex Exploitation (Child Sex Tourism)

•

Internet facilitated Child Abuse Material (iCAM or Child Pornography) • Child Traf¿cking (for sex exploitation or forced labour) In Indonesia, we’re working to prevent and protect children from child abuse and various forms of exploitation, support recovery and strengthen child protective systems. We believe the traf¿cking and exploitation of children is one of the darkest stories and most severe human rights abuses imaginable and it demands our full attention to ensure a Safe Childhood for every child in Indonesia.

Safe Childhoods Foundation’s ¿rst pillar in their program for prevention which includes education and awareness through workshops and their media campaigns kicked off in April. Their ultimate goal is to strengthen government approaches, policing and judicial procedures, victim support services and grass roots projects to prevent crimes against children wherever possible and to protect and support the recovery of children brought to safety.

Past projects included a Slum School for street children in Denpasar provided a safe place for kids to learn Indonesian, English, health and sanitary education in the hopes of reducing the risk of these kids entering the sex trade and keep them off the streets begging. The children were also fed a nutritious meal.

Other plans of action for the year include: 1. Hosting the ‘It’s Not YOUR Wonderland’ event on the 25th of April to of¿cially launch the ‘It’s NOT Ok’ and ‘We’re Watching’ campaign and raise awareness and funds. This gala fundraiser will be a masquerade ball with the theme ‘Alice in Wonderland’ as this day is celebrated by child sex offenders for the girls they violate. The event will be held at The Stones Hotel, Kuta with national and international acts and bands performing. Well known painter Randhy Boegis is donating two of his drawings to be auctioned off with the proceeds being given to Safe Childhoods Foundation. Costumes are encouraged. Doors open at 6:30. For tickets: info@safechildhoods.org 2. Engaging high pro¿le celebrities to fuel important conversations about Transnational Child Sex Exploitation in the national and international media.

3. Reaching 5,000 parents, teachers, business and community leaders, and children every month through the Child Safe Workshops programs.

4. A signi¿cant increase in reports of child sex abuse cases to law enforcement and Safe Childhoods

Also, a former project was the Sanang Happy Workshop to educate the mothers of the children, training and employing them to make clothing, handicrafts and jewellery that were sold at Charity by Design in Ubud. Both of these projects have been taken over by Bali Life Foundation.

5. A number of child victims provided with therapeutic, medical, housing and legal assistance

Another past project was in Sulawasi the Slum School on Trash Mountain, located at a dump site. Here 500 kids scavenge for food and recyclables since 2010 in conjunction with the NGO YAPYA-U, that has since taken over the project, the school has been operating, offering education to the children and nutritious food.

In Villages Workshops are conducted in villages throughout Bali by a female ambassador who educates the members of the community on child safety, how to report cases of abuse to Safe Childhoods and local authorities. She’ll have an information pack, books and activities to share with the children. She’ll also be provided with a laptop and internet access to allow them to liaise with advisors for ongoing support. Each village of up to 600 people including 300 children will receive the education and awareness to prevent abuse in the community.

What is Safe Childhoods Foundation doing this year?

The T focus in 2015 will be b on Transnational Child Sex Exploitation C – travelling child sex offenders entering o Indonesia.

According I to Perth Now, the data from AFP states ‘Indonesia is the number 1 destination n now for registered n Australian child sex A offenders travelling o overseas’. From SMART Of¿ce of Sex S Offenders on Global O overview: The USA was the ¿rst country to require sex offenders to be registered in 1994, since then 17 other countries have joined.

However, only eight of the countries require that offenders must report any overseas travel plans prior to departure. However, only the USA provides this list publicly, the others are only available to government authorities. According to The Australian Sunday Times 2012, a quarter of all registered offenders visited Bali.

TOP TEN TOURISM DESTINATIONS FOR CHILD SEX OFFENDERS From: ‘Perth Now’ 2012 Denpasar Singapore Bangkok Kuala Lumpur Auckland Nadi Hong Kong Manila Dubai Wellington In February there was a Silent launch with the ‘It’s NOT Ok’ awareness and ‘We’re Watching’. The campaign was designed to increase awareness both locally and internationally to help prevent offenders from travelling to Bali and sexually abusing children. Child Safe Workshops are conducted in schools, with plans to target hotels, businesses and the airport, educating the staff in these locations to be aware of this problem and to be on the lookout for possible offenders.

By the end of 2015 their goal is that Bali is no longer the top destination for registered Australian child sex offenders

In Schools Workshops at local and International schools are also being conducted, with a team visiting the schools and talking to age appropriate children, parents and teachers on how to stay safe.

In Tourism Their team will also offer workshops to general staff in the tourist industry to teach them how to recognize the signs of abuse and how and who to report to.

What kind of support are the child victims given by the foundation?

Every child is different and may need different degrees of support and therapy, which may include: Ongoing psychological t h e r a p y, h o s p i t a l examination fees, transport, legal documents, education, living expenses and safe housing/ victim protection. Some of the cases may be short term (approximately 6 months) or others may require ongoing depending on the level of abuse and their family circumstances.

Some of the children may need full-time care and protection, depending on the situation.

Safe Childhoods are in constant need for assistance to support their many projects and campaigns. Indonesia is now named in the media as the number one destination for Australian registered child sex offenders, it’s more important than ever to continue to campaign to raise as much awareness as possible and encourage culturally sensitive environment to start to have the conversation about child sexual exploitation.

He will play his own songs and also back other musicians and singers – come on, you know you want to give it a go - at the Thursday Open Mic nights at the Devil’s cosy venue on Jl Raya Sanggingan (just up from Bintang).

People who don’t want to try the microphone are also very welcome – even a newcomer appreciates a good audience! https://yaniq1.wordpress.com/

Hot days make me yearn for the beach, or at least a relaxing day by and in a cool pool. And I’m trying to get ¿t after a lazy post-dengue year. Hmm, but then I’m always keen to try a delicious and inexpensive new lunch venue.

So I hit the jackpot recently at Bisma Eight on Jalan Bisma, where they’ve a perfect pool and a well-equipt gym both available to outside guests, plus a tasty menu in either the Library Café (yes, there are plenty of books to borrow), the breezy Pavilion or the Copper Bar. Try the tuna carpaccio or lobster fried rice, and preferably one of the many dishes featuring organic vegetables from the adjacent Bisma Garden. Come for lunch or dinner – depending whether you need to cool off in the middle of the day or watch a perfect sunset with a cocktail in the early evening. By the way, Bisma Eight is at 27 Jalan Bisma, not #8.

Similarly relaxing entertainment includes musical poetry from Komunitas Mahima - a group of talented young musicians from Singaraja - and the classical guitar of Tatang Nofrizal.

As well as providing better health care for disadvantaged, pregnant women and natural births in Bali and in Aceh, Ibu Robin is also involved in humanity work in the Philippines to support midwives and birthing centers affected by the typhoon Haiyan.

The ¿ve course “raw food” banquet was specially prepared for the group, and as with many raw food recipes, the creamy texture in main course and dessert was provided by blending cashew nuts. As my friend is allergic to cashews, she told the organizer she’d attend but wouldn’t be eating with the group.

To her astonishment, on her arrival she was told that the Five Element chefs had prepared a delicious alternative version of each course for her, using almonds instead of cashews.

The Five Elements resort and its restaurant earns international awards every year; not surprising really, if the quality of their accommodation and their food is on a par with their customer service. The resort is tucked away outside the village of Mambal, about 20 minutes southwest of Ubud. Ph: 0361-469206. www.¿velements.org.

CUTE DOG BUT …

A health tip: did you know that 50% of dogs recover from rabies but can still infect other people? So a bite from a healthy-looking puppy could still be fatal; get your new pet tested before you bring it into your home, no matter how sweet it looks.

A rabies vaccination won’t give you immunity, but if you are bitten, the medical process is much simpler and less expensive. We have rabies here, get vaccinated! Book at Toya Medical Klinik; 0361 97 8078.

C/U/I-04 March 15

Question: About six months ago, after much agonizing, I broke up with my boyfriend of three years. It was messy, but I tried hard to be honest with him. This included telling him that I had developed feelings for an old friend who had recently spent time with us as a couple. Years before, I had had feelings for this friend. He went back to his home country for a while, I met my boyfriend, and I thought everything else was in the past. Wrong!

After the breakup, this old friend and I tried for a while to avoid seeing each other, but having admitted my feelings to my ex, I found it futile to resist. Reasoning that it would be hurtful for my ex to hear that I had gotten together with my friend whenever that happened, I began a relationship with him only two weeks after the breakup.

Four months later, I am very happy. It feels like coming home, but I miss my ex desperately. We have had no contact since the breakup because, wanting to give him some sense of power, I told him I would leave it up to him to make contact or not. Through friends, I now find out that he has a new girlfriend, and that the two of them are in Bali.

He is on my mind constantly, and I would love to see him to talk. Also, selfishly, I am looking for forgiveness – I hope that he doesn’t hate me for so quickly moving on to another partner, and that he has some good memories of our time together.

Would it be terrible for me to email him just to check in and ask how he is? I know the way I ended things was devastating for him, and that he was incredibly angry with me at the time. I want to know how he’s doing --whether he is still angry, or whether he has moved on. Can I contact him even though I left this decision in his hands? Would it be an entirely selfish act, just seeking alleviation of my intense guilt?

Dr ZZ: Please leave your ex alone. You left the decision up to him, and that was a good move. So far, he hasn’t decided to get in touch with you, and that too is also probably wise. Believe yourself when you say your desire to talk to him is selfish and mostly motivated by a desire to alleviate guilt. You want to know how he is? He is dating someone else now, and so far, it doesn’t appear as if he came to Bali specifically to talk to you. That’s how he is.

Breakups are almost always painful, but when the alternative is staying in an unhappy relationship, breaking up is the right thing to do. You had feelings for someone else; you stopped having those feelings for him; you told him. Now, you have both moved on. Let go of guilt and the need to be liked by this guy. Having negative feelings about

you may be helpful for him in moving past a painful breakup that wasn’t his idea. He gets to have those feelings if he wants. He gets to tell himself whatever story he cares to.

Forgive yourself for going after your own desires, and move on with your life.

Question: I’m another wayward, insecure dude with a lady problem -- though it may be a moderately different problem from what you usually deal with. I have been proudly gay since the end of high school and then had several boyfriends at university. I know I like men a lot, but towards the end of school, I fell hard for a woman, and it was requited. I can’t even describe how much I like this woman.

She is amazing, I absolutely love her, and I am proud just to be her friend, let alone date her.

C/U/I-01 Oct. 14

I moved back to Bali after graduation, and you know how long distance relationships stink. It gets even worse when you are also confused about your sexuality, and it is a lot easier to convince yourself that yes, you’re into her that way when she’s around. But I can’t imagine loving anyone else this much, and I am such a mess about my sexuality that I feel I should just let her go rather than risk not being right for her.

I know a lot of this is dumb and crazy, but how do I tell my monkey brain to leave me alone, so I can enjoy the relationship that I have with this woman right now? Why, also, is the media determined to tell us that bisexual men do not exist when I think I may be one?

Dr. ZZ: Bisexuals are for real and, yes, you may be one.

But how about trying to enjoy this relationship for as long as it works for the two of you, and seeing if you can let things unfold. What, by the way, does she have to say about getting potentially dumped due to distance and/or your confusion about your sexuality? Are you planning to talk it through with her, or were you just going to do it “for her own good”?

My best advice is that it isn’t necessary to decide everything forever right this minute. You don’t have to choose only one way to love or one “identity” to last a lifetime. If you’re so insecure about this that it is interfering with your happiness, it may be time to sort it out at length with a professional counselor. Drop me an “e” if you would like to explore that possibility via email.

The Anak Atelier Playground in Jimbaran

C/E/G-3 Sept. 14

The very southern tip of the Island offers stunning beaches such as Bingin, Padang Padang or Green Bowl, some of the Island’s top surf spots and an absolutely glorious sunset on Balangan Beach. Some of the restaurants have swimming pools and if you want to occupy the children with something fun and inspiring, we have found a gem of a place located near Balangan Beach called The Anak Atelier Playground.

Children love the watercolor illustrations and the text is incredibly informative.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

by Bill Dalton

The Last Rajah of Karangasem The Last Rajah of Karangasem looks at the life and times of I Gusti Bagus Jelantik who ruled the island’s easternmost regency in an era when being a king meant absolute power over his subjects who prostrated themselves at his feet. The book’s scant 190 pages is nothing less than a primer into the feudal mindset of Bali’s aristocratic class as a whole, at the same time giving rare glimpses of a remarkable man who was way ahead of the times.

The book’s nostalgic title gives a hint of the rare¿ed world the old feudal lords of Bali. I was prepared that the book, written in part by the husband of one of the family’s princesses, would be your typical cloying, fawning hagiographic royal genealogy – a boring recitation of the names of dynastic heads, their many wives and offspring and arcane and convoluted court intrigues - but when I delved into the history, I found that it chronicled some lively material about Bali’s colonial era and the heyday of Balinese royalty from the 17th C. to the early 20th Century.

The history of the Karangasem Palace has been surprisingly well documented

by Dutch and Balinese sources. There are dramatic accounts of assassins, lethal rivalries between princes, betrayals and conspiracies, political maneuverings, eyewitness stories of royals Àeeing dangers and wars, the hobby of kings. Incest was tolerated between brothers and sisters as a way to guarantee the perpetuation of the royal line.

The brown-shaded sections contain the most fascinating historical asides and intriguing subjects. With titles like “The Tragic Fate of Anak Agung Made Karangasem,” “The Rajah and his Wives,” “The Rajah’s Trip to Solo,” “The Rajah and his Car,” “What the Rajah Ate,” “The Rajah and His Kris Collection” and “The Last Rajah and Tagore,” how can your curiosity not be aroused?

Two facing pages list the rajah’s 12 wives and 31 progeny.

Two wives were “returned” to their families because they didn’t produce any children. As a baby, one prince was stolen by a pet monkey and carried to the top of a frangipani tree. When the hysterical family gave chase, the frightened monkey dropped him and he instantly died. One old photograph shows the huge family ¿lling the terrace in front of a royal pavilion; another amazing photo shows the rajah’s nine daughters arrayed on a stairway and during their tooth ¿ling ceremony.

What a life this man lived! I Gusti Bagus Jelantik’s time on earth spanned from his birth in an independent Balinese kingdom of the late 19th C., to semi-independence under the Dutch and the brutal Japanese wartime occupation, through to the new postwar state of East Indonesia and the new nation’s federal system of government, ¿nally ending his life at age 79 in the new Republic of Indonesia.

The rajah has been characterized as vain, a schemer and a Dutch collaborator, but he was also known as an innovative architect, a key player in the colonial administration and during the political upheavals of the new Indonesia, a defender of Balinese culture and an enlightened self-taught visionary who established modern social organizations and promoted economic development that ushered his regency into a new age. He wrote books on preserving Balinese religious laws and traditional architecture and was a strong believer in formal court etiquette and attire. But since the rajah’s death in 1966, recent times have not proven kind to the House of Karangasem. With the regency’s loss of lands, and its economic activity, wealth and inÀuence declining, by the ¿rst decade of the new millennium most of the rajah’s descendants had migrated south to Badung and even further a¿eld to Java in search of work.

As any student of Balinese culture can attest, the importance of names, status and titles is no triÀing matter.

A glossary in the front matter acquaints us with the aristocratic terminology of this lost era. Another section clari¿es royal names. Many royals shared the same last name. I Gusti Bagus Jelantik was also known as A.A.A. Anglurah Ketut Karangasem and Gusti Agung Jelantik.

A two-page map delineates all of Bali’s original royal nine kingdoms as they stood in 1945. The Introduction describes the extent to which present-day royalty has become watered down, Bali’s ruling class having now expanded to 26 “royal” palaces from the nine that existed when the nation gained its independence.

C/E/G-15 April 15

Adrian Vickers, noted scholar, author and professor of Southeast Asian history at the University of Sydney, provides a history of the House of Karangasem and details the important relationship between Lombok and Karangasem, whose rulers played a decisive role in the history of that neighboring island in the 19th Century. In his capacity as founder of the Puri Karangasem Historical Society, Rodney Holt brings fresh insights into the ¿nal 25 years of I Gusti Bagus Jelantik’s life, along with anecdotal explanations of key vintage photos from the society’s archives. A series of black & white photos of the rajah’s cremation in 1916, which many Europeans attended, are accompanied by an eyewitness account written by the rajah’s uncle.

Holt has a way of slyly slipping in some righteous indignation and stabs at various trends and institutions, i.e.

Bali’s erratic judicial system, the worsening environmental and cultural degradation, a pro-autonomy stance on the province’s disadvantaged position as part of a unitary republic, his sentiments regarding Javanese hegemony over Bali’s economy and the “development anarchy” which have made Balinese tenants on their own ancestral land.

The story really springs to life in the section “The Early 19th Century” as Western readers are able to relate to the characters and events of this relatively recent time. “Living in the Karangasem Palace” explains the layout of the puri; the functions, positioning and features of the principle buildings, pavilions and temples; the origins of the furniture, gifts and heirlooms. In the present day, portions of the palace’s residence and adjoining gardens are open to the public (http://purikarangasem.com/puri/map), but most are closed as they make up the private living quarters of the rajah’s family. A foldout ground plan of Puri Agung Karangasem is included.

C/E/G-15 April 15

In another time and country, the last rajah of Karangasem would’ve had his life celebrated, monuments built and streets named after him. But the glories of the House of Karangasem, one of the most powerful royal families in Bali, are but a distant memory. The Last Rajah of Karangasem sets some misconceptions straight, remedies a few wrong interpretations and offers up numerous entertaining vignettes into palace life. Learning the way this one dynasty worked, its internal and external conÀicts, the jostling, interplay and distribution of power between rival kingdoms, is key to understanding the dynamics of the whole modern history of Bali.

The Last Rajah of Karangasem: The Life and Times of Anak Agung Anglurah Karangasem 1887-1966 by A.A.A. Dewi Girindrawardani, Adrian Vickers and Rodney Hall. Available for Rp280,000 at Ganeesha and Periplus bookstores.

MONEY MATTERS

by Colin Bloodworth CHOOSE ONE - LAMBORGHINI OR REGULAR INCOME? This article should be of particular interest to British expatriates, but the principles of spending, saving and investing apply to everyone.

If you took the quoted lump sum, even allowing for a tax-free portion you would be left with just around £75,000 ($112,500) after tax. Unfortunately this is not enough to buy a new Lamborghini but no doubt some pensioners with much larger pension pots could well do so. It would be enough though to buy a more modest car, take an expensive holiday and still have some to spare. If you have an alternative income that is sufficient to see you through there is no problem. But in case you had just enough to buy the Lamborghini keep in mind that annual insurance premiums are going to a bit higher than what you are paying for the Avanza.

Alternative option 2 – Take the money and invest it This of course is a wiser option. The challenge is going to

Alternative option 1 – Take the lump sum and spend it

Taking into account all the negatives it is clear you should not put it all in one basket. The answer has got to be a blend of some of the above. Cash is useless as an investment but you must keep ample cash reserves. If you have some bonds and dividend-paying stocks they will pay a modest income but you also need stocks and perhaps a buy-to-let property (subject to previous caveats) to provide longer term growth. A portfolio containing a mixture of stocks, bonds and commodities is a convenient vehicle for combining financial investments and a regular income facility can be set up. But don’t expect high returns. Excessive withdrawals would see a reduction in capital value.

Understandably, the public has become unhappy at the meagre pensions. So the move by the government was seen as a popular one, and there would be benefits for the government also. A win-win situation. Or is it?

So where on earth should you invest your pension money?

Call (+62-361)

Jl. Tangkuban Perahu

Annuities are generally provided by insurance companies.

Since they have to provide income for the lifetime of the owner the money invested cannot be put at risk and subject to the vagaries of the stock or property markets. It has to be backed by the most solid of investments, government bonds. For decades this has not been a problem but in recent years major currency bond rates have fallen to record lows of only 2% to 3% per annum.

Given that the insurance company keeps the money invested after the death of the holders, it can pay a little more but it has to allow for a margin of error, increasing life expectation and of course a healthy profit for itself. For a 65-year old the end result is a pension worth perhaps just 5% per annum of the cash value, with nothing at the end of the day for one’s estate. Let’s say that the accumulated pension value is £100,000. This would translate into a monthly annuity of £417 (US$625). Not exactly a sum that will permit frugal living in retirement.

Unfortunately for many the euphoria will be short-lived. The money will run out and the pension they earned over their working lives will be gone. Who will support them from then on? Family? The government? Many will rue the day in 2014 when the British Chancellor of the Exchequer said that people were responsible and could manage their own pensions.

(Note: A Harvard University study suggests that people’s ability to make good financial decisions peaks at 53 and then starts to decline.)

All this changed on April 6 when those over 55 were allowed to take a lump sum in place of the annuity. There was a catch however. Any amount above a given tax-free limit would be subject to income tax, meaning potentially up to 40% could revert to the state. That’s good news for the government which is counting on extra tax revenue of several billion pounds over the next few years. Good news for the economy too as people go out and spend their windfalls, creating more jobs. Jokingly, the phenomenon is being referred to as the ‘Lamborghini effect’ as some pensioners rush to buy luxury goods they could previously only dream about.

• Bank deposit – You will be lucky to receive even 1% in GBP or USD. You can get a higher rate in Rupiah but if you take into account the depreciation of the currency your capital is going to erode rapidly in terms of GBP or USD. • Government Bonds – Annual returns around 2% to 3% in GBP or USD. Not an option for a living income unless you have at least a million to invest. You can get 7% in Rupiah bonds but will have the same currency issue as cash.

• Corporate Bonds – Higher returns than government bonds but risk of losses if a company goes out of business.

• Stocks – Good returns over the long term but high risk of short term losses. Major markets fell 40% - 50% in the 2008 global financial crisis. Stocks paying regular dividends can produce a modest regular income but there is still capital risk.

• Gold – Useless as an income producer as it pays no interest. Safe as a store of wealth and can rise quickly in value in times of global turmoil. But you may have to wait a long time. From its peak in 1980 it fell from around $800 to $300 an ounce and it took almost a quarter of a century before it surged again.

• Land and Property – Undoubt edly one of the best investments over the past few decades but frought with potential problems.

Liquidity is one; you cannot sell a bathroom if you need cash in a hurry. As a foreigner buying in Indonesia there are also huge pitfalls as thousands of owners in Bali with nominee arrangements have now come to realise.

• Alternative Investments – There are many investment opportunities including hedge funds, student accommodation and care home funds, agricultural investments, asset-backed lending, private equity, venture capital and of course your own business.

All are more risky however than conventional investments. Retirement is not a time to be tempted by high returns.

Just over a week ago an amazing opportunity presented itself to millions of people in the UK who had contributed to company or private pensions during their working lives. It had always been a fundamental principle of successive governments that a pension meant an income for life. The laws ensured it would be taken in the form of an annuity, which meant a regular, fixed amount till death with perhaps a provision for a reduced spouse pension.

But the income ceased upon the second death. There was no residue to leave to children or your estate. The whole point however was that the pensioner could rely on a regular income and would not become a burden to the state.

be whether you have better investment skills than fund managers and experts who have struggled to achieve decent returns over the past 15 years. If this is your only pension you will need to convert the lump sum into a new income-producing source right away. So where do you put the money? Here are the options open to you, together with some of the drawbacks:

GARDEN DOCTOR

by Dr. Kris

Rooftop Gardening ‘Good afternoon Kris, Firstly, I love reading your columns in the advertiser - so thank you for writing them! I have a question regarding rooftop gardens. My husband and I have a place in Bingin on the Bukit. We have 2 lots of rooftop space we want to utilise for a mini garden. Both rooftops are concrete with reinforced steel - so should have no problems holding the extra weight. The roof areas are small - one is 1.5m x 3m and the other about 1.5 x 2m. I’m planning to make a few planters for each roof. My question is - what soil mix would I need? I have read I need to make sure its light weight.

Could you recommend a mix?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards, Elise.

Rooftop gardens have various uses from utilising valuable space in urban areas for food production, attracting birds, butterÀies and bees, creating a sink for carbon and taking harmful particles out of the air whilst also protecting rooftops from damaging UV light. They can insulate from heat, cold and sound and also absorb stormwater onsite. A City of Toronto study in 2006 discovered that if 8 per cent of the city’s buildings had green roofs its summer temperatures would drop by 2C, whilst insulating heat in winter, whilst also reducing noise by 40 decibels. The study calculated savings from reduced energy consumption at $80 million a year.

There are many design styles available for a garden on the roof. The easiest option is to simply create a planter box arrangement as you plan. It’s easy to get a few planters, soil and plants, and then you will have a rooftop garden in an instant, but as rightly pointed out the soil type and weight are the primary concern.

When building a rooftop garden, it must be structurally safe. Considerations of the total weight of all components should be taken into account. That is the weight of the planters, the soil and the plants. The moisture holding capacity and drainage of your soil is also another important factor, as is the structural integrity of the roof. Pots, planters, soil, and plants can be very heavy once accumulated. Is your roof built to withstand the increased weight of a garden? Remember that the soil will weigh much more when it is wet and that plants will weigh more as they grow, so allow for this weight increase.

Proper soil selection is critical to the long-term success of a rooftop garden. To keep costs down and ensure success use locally available materials suited to the speci¿c plants that are to be grown. 100% garden soil should not be used on a rooftop garden due to its weight, though as a component of an engineered soil, good quality soil or compost can be added in proportions of 10-20 % as a component of the growing medium.

The growing medium should be a mixture of organic and inorganic particles of varying size and composition. This blend must not only be lightweight, but must also possess the ability to retain water yet allow for the drainage of the excess.

Generally, the organic and inorganic particles that make up the green roof planting medium should occupy at least 50 percent of the soil composition, with the remainder being pore space, which facilitates air and water movement. For this reason particle size and distribution is an important consideration to take into account when developing your mix.

Orchid mix is usually very light weight so you could opt for an orchid garden, bromeliads or other epiphytes or even succulents if weight is a concern. If you prefer some soil in your mix you

could opt for a mix of a combination of perlite, coarse peat moss, shredded coconut ¿ber, lava rock, gravel, hardwood charcoal, tree fern ¿ber, ¿ne pine bark, hardwood bark, dried leaves, grass clippings, quality soil or compost, crushed bricks, even coarse pumice (that can be picked up at the beach) and gravel. Or even orchid mix combined with any of these ingredients.

A simple combination of easily available materials could include 20% coarse tree fern ¿ber, 20% coconut ¿bre or pine bark, 20% lava rock or pumice, 20 % compost, 10% charcoal 10% gravel.

It all really depends on what you intend to grow so you may need to do some experimentation with different materials.

Remember to use a combination of materials of varying particle sizes to allow for pore space, and try to add inorganic materials that will contribute mineral content to the mix, such as lava rock or pumice stone. Also check on the weight of your mix when dry and wet before you go ahead. Coconut ¿ber for example will be much heavier than pine bark when wet. Lava rock and pumice will retain nutrients, whereas gravel does not. Lava rock and pumice have large particle sizes, yet lava rock is heavy whilst pumice is lightweight. Gravel has small particle size, yet is heavier than pumice. As you can see there are many variables to consider. Just do some experimentation, it will be fun. In effect you must mix up the ingredients and cook your own special soil. When you get the mix correct, write it down and keep it in your recipe book!

You will also need to consider a drainage system and water itself, how are you going to water the garden? Where will the water run-off? If you don’t have guttering you will end up with water marks and soil stains down your walls, and regular cleaning of the gutters will also be necessary to ensure that they don’t become blocked, otherwise you will be creating a mosquito breeding habitat. The roof will need to be pitched at least a few degrees, because the water will need to run somewhere. The added weight and water could be not only dangerous but at the very least damage your property.

C/Ns/G-9 July 14

There are many options for planters also to reduce weight.

Standard planters are made of heavy materials such as reinforced concrete, terracotta, terrazzo etc. There are lightweight planters available made from aggregated perlite/ concrete, or even ¿breglass that can reduce weight by up to 75%. Whatever you do make sure the roof is strong enough to hold the extra weight of the garden (soil + plants) that you are considering. Always waterproof the roof with a rubber membrane. It is most important that you make sure that any added construction is secure and safe, ensure that it complies with all local building practices and codes.

The total weight of the rooftop garden is the most important consideration, so economise on weight wherever you can in the design process. There is no point using a light weight soil, if you then use the heaviest planter boxes available, heavy or large plants, or if excess water doesn’t drain off the roof.

WOODEN BLINDS

So the new YouTube channel ‘Bali in a Minute’ is a brilliant idea. It has 336 ¿lm clips about “everything to see and do on Bali”, made by a helpful chap called Paul Greenway to help tourists with their planning. Film clips are so much better than words and photos! The YouTube channel is free to use, and anyone can subscribe and link it to other websites for free.

Plus, a “winter” disease in Bali’s sticky heat is not fun.

Best news, Paul is keen to make a “Sanur in a Minute” YouTube series, and invites local businesses to advertise.

A one-minute clip with logos and contact details will cost only US$20 or 200,000 rupiah to ¿lm, edit and upload, and will be on this YouTube channel forever. Non-pro¿ts and festivals can also apply, free of charge. Email paulankles26@ hotmail.com for more info.

So get vaccinated. Now - March to early May – is the best time, and vaccinations are available at Bali International Medical Centre. The jab doesn’t guarantee that you’ll dodge everything but your chances of remaining Àu-free go up markedly. Every year there are new strains; a good vaccine offers resistance to these.

You can also help by staying clear of Àu sufferers, washing your hands like Lady Macbeth and using hand sanitizer when in public places.

BIMC, Jl Bypass Ngurah Rai No 100x. Phone 0361 761 263.

Cost: 250,000rp for kitas holders.

SAFE IF COCONUTS FALL? Every year people die after being hit on their head by a coconut, but for most Bali visitors, I don’t think this is a huge problem. So I’m really curious that so many people ride on motorbikes without buckling-up their helmets.

According to international research, more than 95% of permanent deaths and disabilities after road accidents are caused by people not wearing seat belts (while in cars etc) or not CLOSING THE CLIP on their helmet when riding a motorbike.

So please on pass this simple message to anyone who has a helmet but doesn’t wear it, or thinks it is a hat. Or indeed, carries it in his or her hands - perhaps as some sort of protective glove?

Simply put, with the helmet on one’s head, one is perfectly safe from falling coconuts. However, the helmet leaves the scene of the accident at the same speed as the person wearing it, and will be dislodged from its owner while travelling through the air. By the time of impact, the helmet won’t be anywhere near the victim’s head. Do up your helmet!

DUSK BLUE Still improving and expanding their menu - currently breakfast and lunch, afternoon teas – after a soft opening in August, 2014, Dusk Blue is a welcome addition to the Sanur café scene.

Dusk Blue – it’s the colour of the full moon once a year – is on the way to Semawang beach, next to the Hyatt hotel.

With a contemporary, beach atmosphere, it’s clean and uncluttered, with comfortable linen-covered couches and long wooden community table to make meeting others very easy.

Chinese Indonesian owner Debby Thio says they wanted to create a welcoming “stay awhile” environment. She’s taking things slowly to make sure the menu is perfect; going for (I kid you not) the best coffee in Sanur, and organic, healthy, fresh food. Later, they’ll invite guest chefs and host Sunday family brunches and special events upstairs, in their beautiful loft-like space with 6-meter long table .

Just last week, they provided free yoga and meditation classes and hosted a relaxed, friendly festival day on the beachfront adjacent to Sanur’s Mercure resort. There were free activities and entertainment all day, followed by an evening concert with Sanur’s Jonny Agung and international performer Fantuzzi, and then a spectacular fireworks display.

It was a great way to introduce a lot of great people and organizations to the community – surf classes, a weekly organic growers market, Ayurvedic and Chinese medical practitioners and a community recycling program, to name just a few. If you missed the event, visit Power of Now Oasis at Mertasari Beach. You’ll ¿nd information about all the activities and how to be involved in Sanur events and nonpro¿ts in the future.

Building & Maintenance

“The Confusion of the Bipolar Bear” Our hamster died last week. Funny really ‘cause Aunty fanny’s canary fell off it’s mortal coil to say nothing of Grandad’s dog getting run over by a tram (that’s seems strange - there aren’t any trams anymore and no one can remember seeing a dog in his dementia ward). Have you ever noticed that things seem to happen in three’s.

You’ll find if you talk to nurses they often say that people die in threes. In old folks homes someone dies and everyone starts to get a bit twitchy, another dies and they all start heading for the doors, a third dies and everyone breathes a sigh of relief and carries on where they left off.

With a typical engineer’s attitude to anything supernatural I always poo pooed this notion but then I’ll never forget years ago there was a nasty ‘head on’ bus crash between Sydney and Brisbane in which about 80 poor souls popped their clogs. Never heard of such a thing before but then within days there was another and, blow me down, a couple of weeks later yet another. Since then - nothing.

(The Balinese know what’s going on, they believe in threes as we have discussed before).

In our office we seem to get sudden bursts of activity that we can only put down to the activities of those mischievous spirits that inhabit the island. One week it’s the water pump spirit having a particularly grumpy week then it’s his cousin who bothers himself with air conditioners, the spirit of septic tanks and anything sloppy and dirty is, as you would expect, always unhappy.

Of course these spirits have plenty of assistance in their wicked work and several cases recently indicate the point.

We have been inundated with clients with technical problems that have a common theme - poor or no MEP design.

What, I hear some of you think, is MEP? MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing and refers to the technical systems that exist in our homes to make our lives reasonably comfortable.

Most people in Bali still wash their clothes in the rivers but, for us more fortunate folk, we have piped water to our houses. No longer do we creep out in the night to empty the guzunder (that nice porcelain potty that guzunder the bed).

No night soil these days - we have a comfortable flushing water closet and septic tank to deal with that. No more candles, smelly carbide or paraffin lamps, thanks to Mr Edison these days we have phonographs and light bulbs.

In our homes we have ever more complicated technical systems which are increasingly “essential” (some would quite rightly disagree) to our cosseted lives. Why is it then that so many people put the provision of such systems in the hands of those who worship gnomes and think that threading satay is the most technically demanding work ever created.

Let us get things into perspective. In any houses there are three aspects of the building that must have technically competent design and installation if the house is to be safe and function correctly. These are: • the structure • the electrical systems and • the plumbing.

Bad plumbing we can suffer with but get the structure or electrical systems wrong and our lives are in danger (ever noticed how many fires there are in Indonesia due to bad wiring?)

The endless stream of requests to sort out problems with all aspects of water supply, sewerage and electrical systems can be put down to the basic fact that for most people their MEP systems were neither designed nor installed correctly.

All across Indonesia people are struggling and they call tukangs who carry out botch repairs on botched systems and very often the “repairs” only make things worse.

If someone wants to be a plumber they have to wake up to the basic but painful fact that water flows downhill. Of course the water flow deniers reject such beliefs as heresy saying that the world must be flat, if it was indeed round wouldn’t the water run off it?

I went into a fairly new hospital recently and as I entered that ever so welcoming stench of raw sewage assailed my nostrils. I held back the desire to empty the contents of my innards on the beautiful polished floors and made my way to see an ailing business colleague realising that this particular hospital always stinks and, not surprisingly, the medical staff all wear face masks.

But have you noticed? Stinky brand new multimillion dollar buildings are by no means an unusual occurrence, all over the country relatively new hotels have the distinct pungence of raw faecal matter. The cause is always the same - poor MEP design.

Bali Advertiser

15 April - 29 April, 2015

The fact is that good MEP designers are few and far between in spite of their importance in the building industry.

I was recently asked to organise the redesign of MEP systems for two dozen new hospital buildings when it was found there were problems. Checking revealed the Engineer employed for the task had no formal qualifications or training in the work - he was cutting and pasting his drawings from existing badly designed systems.

SMS only +62 87 861 988111. [111] Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.

If you are having a house built you should ask, nay demand, that the architect shows you the MEP drawings. These should be completed BEFORE construction starts - why? I hear you ponder. The reason is simple, the MEP systems need to be built into the house not just added on later as an afterthought. How often do we see air conditioners stuck on the outside of a building like warts on a nose. Air conditioners and water heaters are part of everyday life these days and suitable places to hide them with ways to access and maintain them need to be designed into the building at an early stage as part of the architectural design.

C/Bm/I-15 April 15

From an MEP design point of view it is also very important that systems are designed at an early stage. Black water (sewerage), grey water (showers, washbasins and laundry waste water) and rainwater drains all need to be planned as to how they will pass through the building and out under floors. These pipes will need to be installed at an early stage during construction and MUST NOT compromise the structural strength of the building. You wouldn’t believe how often in Indonesia drain pipes are put down the centre of structural concrete columns or through important beams.

If your house has been properly designed there will be a series of drawings: 1. For the electrical systems there will be a master design drawing, much in the form of a chart, that lists all the circuits, the size of circuit breakers and the design of the main distribution panel. This drawing will list what will be connected to each circuit including lights, plug sockets, water heaters, air conditioners, fans, cookers, pubic curling tongs, etc. The drawing provides a calculation of the loads on each circuit and, of course, the earth connection.

2. Next there will be a drawing showing the wiring and placement of power circuits in the building with plug sockets and dedicated circuits for pumps, fans, air conditioners, water heaters, etc all indicated.

3. Next there will be a lighting plan showing the positions and wiring for the lights, switches and wiring.

4. Specialist installations such as swimming pools and garden lighting will have their own separate drawings.

Email : mano@mrtrusted.asia www.mrtrusted.asia C/Ns/G-14 May 14

There are numerous legally binding rules regarding the design of electrical circuits, all devised to protect our precious lives and the electrical drawings must reflect these rules.

Then there will be drawings for the plumbing systems including: 5. A drawing for black water systems.

6. A drawing for grey water systems.

7. A drawing for the design of the septic tank (if you have one) and one for any soak pit(s).

For even a basic house there should be at least 6 drawings for the MEP systems. You are well advised not to let construction start until you have seen these drawings. If you ask to see them and somehow they are not immediately available you need to be wary it could well be that there aren’t any.

C/Bm/I-04 March 15

Some people may tell you that you don’t need drawings but letting a vender of small nodding dogs recruited at the traffic lights loose with half a mile of cheap cable, a screwdriver in his hands and no plan is like a granny suffering from dementia knitting a Fair Isle jumper with no pattern (you don’t know what a Fair Isle jumper is? believe me - you need a pattern).

MEP drawings are not only essential during the construction process to make sure that construction is carried out properly and that systems will work correctly, they are also very important for ongoing maintenance, ever tried unblocking a sewer when you have no idea where the pipes are?

If you wish to avoid the confusion of the bipolar bear and bring a modicum of sanitary to your life (and your hotel or hospital) you are well advised to find an MEP engineer.

How’s your Bahasa?

By Ines Wynn

Earlier this year the Indonesian Manpower Ministry announced a new regulation that all foreign nationals applying for a work permit in Indonesia must display a modicum of fluency in Bahasa Indonesia, Indonesia´s national language and that the government would soon require all foreign workers to pass an Indonesian language pro¿ciency test in order to legally work in the country.

However, a few weeks ago The Jakarta Globe reported that the government is now backtracking on its plans to require the passing of an Indonesian language pro¿ciency test. Ostensibly the plan was withdrawn following protests from domestic and foreign investors and the local business community who labeled the plan as protectionist and cited the need for foreign expertise which is still lacking in Indonesia today. Vice President Jusuf Kalla commented that the language requirement was “well intentioned” to protect low-skilled jobs ahead of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) integration this year, but should be reviewed because of its potential impact on foreign investment.

Whether the language requirement will be dropped altogether or revised is still not clear; however, the interest in learning or improving one’s aptitude in Indonesian is gaining ground and many expats are eager to improve their Indonesian language skills.

Bali has no shortage of language schools, study groups or private teachers who are eager to help out. There are many options when it comes to choosing a competent teacher or learning method. For beginners, the smorgasbord is easy to navigate.

They just choose a school or teacher in their immediate environment and start by learning the basics ¿rst. For many Bali expats who already have a certain degree of Àuency there are different ways to expand that knowledge. It depends on the pro¿ciency level attained, the speci¿c niche or vocabulary you want to master and above all, the Àexibility of choosing methods, course times and other variables that are speci¿c to your situation.

Bahasa Indonesia 101 and beyond. If you want to start learning Indonesian in order to safeguard an existing job or want to improve your present language skills, there is no shortage of ways to help you achieve your goals. Start by taking a look at the Education Section of the Bali Advertiser where some reputable and accredited language schools are listing their competencies. By and large, the programs at these schools are fairly similar. Most offer multiple levels of instruction for beginners, through intermediate and advanced and the teaching methods are studentcentered and rely for the major part on verbal communications.

That means you will speak in Indonesian from the very ¿rst lesson.

The focus is on speaking and expressing yourself naturally and appropriately with correct pronunciation and intonation. Grammar, syntax and language theory are taught as well so that you are able to identify how a sentence is constructed in Indonesian and conversely be able to build your own sentences in conversation.

All classes are taught by certified, experienced and native Indonesian language teachers. You can select group classes or private tutoring. Except for beginners who have little or no knowledge of the language, all schools and language programs will administer a placement test in order to determine your level of aptitude in Indonesian and to allow the school to place you in the most appropriate level.

Most class packets are approximately 40 hours with a class frequency of 2-hour sessions several times per week. Beginners are taught the basics in Indonesian communication to be able to interact in common life situations. Intermediate students concentrate on enlarging vocabulary and master the techniques to express ideas, to converse Àuently on diverse topics, and be able to read simple books and write essays in Indonesian. At the advanced level students focus on improving their overall language skills and eliminate common errors in speaking and writing.

Schools and Study programs – IALF (IndonesiaAustralia Language Foundation) in Sesetan is one of the oldest – since 1989-- and most reputable language schools in Bali offering very structured classes on all levels and intensive language packages. There are 6 levels from Beginners (2 levels), Intermediate (3 levels) to Advanced. IALF offers group classes, one-on-one private sessions and customized classes. Most packets are 40 hours of intensive language study over a period of 4 weeks with Àexible class times. A special Bali packet combines 40 hours of Indonesian language training with 20 hours of cultural studies focused on Balinese culture including dance, music, cooking, batik making. There are also Àexible programs available geared towards expats living and working in Bali; classes that focus on

Indonesian for speci¿c sectors such as business, education, hospitality, mining, forestry, law and health. Other services provided by IALF include translation and interpreting. The school also boasts a well-stocked library and a computer language lab with the latest educational hardware and software and multimedia workstations.

Cinta Bahasa Indonesia (Love the Indonesian Language) is a relative newcomer, established in Ubud in 2011 but they burst upon the scene with élan and became one of the most popular and best known language schools in Bali. They have a school on the main campus of Campuhan College in Sanginggan, Ubud and satellite classrooms in Sanur and Canggu. Cinta Bahasa offer a range of classes taught by certi¿ed and experienced Indonesian language teachers who teach colloquial Indonesian rather than formal and dated language straight out of a textbook. Their methodology is to make the learning experience fun and engaging.

The accent is on spoken Indonesian. Grammar takes a back seat to spontaneous conversational Indonesian. Besides the ubiquitous levels of beginner, intermediate and advanced, they also offer tailored Indonesian language courses for individuals, organizations and companies. You can join one of the small group classes at the schools or arrange for one-on-one private lessons at your hotel, house or villa. Online courses via Skype are available for those who want to study independently from home. Classes in Basa Bali are taught on the main campus in Ubud or via Skype.

Besides intensive language training, Cinta Bahasa provides translation and interpretation services, cultural immersion classes, as well as activities and events which encourage foreigners and Indonesians to get to know each other and for foreigners to become better integrated in Indonesian culture and society. Cinta Bahasa has recently teamed up with Bar Luna in Ubud to bring monthly language and culture sessions under the banner East Meets West. The sessions are interactive events with guest speakers and focused on explaining cultural differences and avoiding cross cultural misunderstandings. Check Bar Luna’s events calendar for date and time.

S Seminyak Language School (SLS) also has S locations in Canggu lo a and Jimbaran. They employ university e educated teachers who take ta a communicative approach to the classes, so each course includes about c 75% percent conversation.

This c way, you learn how to listen and understand the language, as well as speak and express yourself in a natural way. Classes include short-term courses and packages for tourists, career focused classes for professionals and group classes for families.

Pondok Pekak Library and Learning Center is located behind the football ¿eld in Ubud. This is another option for visitors and expats to pick up some Bahasa Indonesia. The courses at the library are geared towards beginner and intermediate learners.

Group classes for adults and children are on offer but you can also arrange private lessons either at the library or at a location of your choice. In addition, the library is fully stocked with Indonesian language books to help you with your studies.

Online language courses. If you have no time or inclination to join a structured language program or get lessons from a private tutor, there are other ways to tackle your language learning. If you google Online Indonesian language courses, you’ll get a ton of results and it is not easy to weed through all and evaluate the quality of their teaching. Look for programs that are created by well-known universities and accredited educational institutions.

There are some excellent online Bahasa Indonesia courses; some are free, at least at the beginner level. Jakarta based Language Studies Indonesia (LSI) provides online Indonesian classes taught via Skype to students throughout Indonesia and in 122 countries worldwide. LSI is an online school created by the Department of Education and is licensed by the Government to provide specialized education in the Indonesian language, in accordance with the Council of Europe’s CEFR standard (Common European Framework of Reference) and the Indonesian Education Code.

LSI’s teaching faculty is comprised wholly of university-accredited Indonesian language instructors, who are all native-speakers.

The Skype classes are taught in 90-minute sessions on a regular basis. Classes can be scheduled between 9am and 8.30pm

(Jakarta time) from Monday through Friday. You can design your own weekly class schedule according to your availability. LSI recommends that in order to achieve Bahasa Indonesia fluency, you should study as intensively as possible and commit to at least 2 or 3 classes weekly. If you want to achieve Àuency at “lightning speed,” you should take 5 to 10 classes weekly. The advantage of taking online classes is the ability to go at your own speed. LSI offers Indonesian language courses at six levels from absolute beginner to advanced. To participate in online classes, you will need a computer with a broadband internet connection, headset (or microphone & speaker), webcam and printer. The computer skills required are minimal. You need to be able to use Skype and webcam for online communication and send and receive attachments via email.

Less academic, LiveMocha offers several decent interactive language courses which you can follow in a choice of base languages like English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese. You can choose between self-study courses or opt to receive live assistance from native speakers via Skype. While the basic course is free of charge, the subsequent levels are on a pay-as-you-go basis although the site has some type of reciprocal feature where you can earn points towards more advanced lessons by becoming an assistant to others who want to learn your native language.

There are several sites like Babbel.com and Travellinguist.com that offer free, though very basic instruction and tend to cater to travelers or short-term visitors who want just enough Indonesian to be able to travel with relative comfort to areas with little command of English. YouTube also has several videos purporting to teach simple phrases and conversational English but they are often amateurish productions and fall far short of the real thing.

What about Basa Bali? Since Bali has its own ethnic language, a few intrepid expats want to learn this language which is de¿nitely more relevant and easier to approach if you already have a good basis in Indonesian. The language is daunting for foreigners because of its many levels of expression which align themselves with the social status of the person speaking and being spoken to. This requires not only an intuitive Àair for the language but also the ability to retain a broad vocabulary as many words will have variants depending on the way it is to be used, the circumstances, and the social level of the speakers communicating with each other. Of the schools reviewed above, only Cinta Bahasa, in cooperation with BASAbali (see below) offers a course in Balinese, using BASAbali materials, for small groups or private tutoring for individuals either at their main classrooms in Ubud or via Skype. The base language is Indonesian; therefore you must have at least an intermediate level in Indonesian to be able to take this class. If you want to learn Sanskrit at the same time, your best bet would be to seek a competent private teacher in a guided environment. If you just want to be mildly conversant, a good Balinese friend in an informal setting can teach you a lot.

BASAbali is a US based nonpro¿t organization which strives to promote the Balinese language as part of the cultural identity of the Balinese people, as one of the world’s linguistic gems, and as a model for other minority languages.

BASAbali has created modern, multimedia materials to teach Balinese through a software-based learning program and produced a series of 24 professional quality dialogue videos, accompanying language exercises, and a series of cool modules to teach Askara Bali, the endangered Balinese script. The conversational videos have a range of contexts: buying fruit at a market, going to a museum, practicing yoga, learning about organic farming in a chocolate factory, making a meal, etc.

Each section starts with a video with subtitles, and then moves through a series of interactive exercises, electronic Àashcards, voice recognition, grammatical notes and cultural resources. Of special note is that the cultural section includes contributions from Chef Chris Salans of Mozaic, Rio Helmi, Made Wijaya, Joel Sherzer, Laetitia Knight and other Bali-based expats.

BA FEATURE - Bahasa Continued from page 56 The program is given free of charge to nonprofit organizations and for a modest fee to individuals to help cover costs. The software has been incorporated into the regular middle school curriculum for the Denpasar area.

Along with a team of Balinese linguists, BASAbali has also developed basabaliwiki, an online Balinese-Indonesian-English reference dictionary based on the late Fred Eiseman’s BalineseEnglish, English-Balinese dictionaries .The dictionary is intended to serve as a combination of standalone Balinese dictionary as well as a translation dictionary between the three languages.

Another project was the translation of Google’s Homepage in Balinese.

Self-study, as in trying to learn the language out of a book, is the least recommended method.

Besides not being able to hear correct pronunciation and intonation, there are no opportunities to practice conversational Indonesian, which is by far the quickest and most effective way to learn. Besides, it takes strong discipline that is difficult to maintain on a consistent basis. Most self-study textbooks are way too formal and far removed from the every-day spoken language.

It lacks contemporary vocabulary and it captures no regional or local nuances and variants.

With all the available on-line courses and assistance, there is no reason to go that route.

Immerse yourself. No matter what your level and your way of learning, the key to absorbing the new language skills in the fastest possible time is to immerse yourself in the language by surrounding yourself with native speakers and speak the new language at every opportunity.

This means seeking out situations and people to practice several hours per day. Watch local TV, eavesdrop on conversations, and practice, practice, practice. When words and complete phases spontaneously drop into your mind while you’re talking or even while daydreaming, you can be assured that the new language is being anchored and you’re on your way to fluency.

Tabanan Start Up Kit: Part 2 While Bali races ahead, the old and new merge more slowly in Tabanan. Except for one of the world’s most photographed temples at Tanah Lot, most of this regency’s natural attractions are relatively unknown and little visited. The region still has a strong hold on tradition. Religious and clan cremations - activities seldom witnessed in Bali’s more touristy areas - are widespread and can often be seen in an unhurried atmosphere absent of big crowds and backed up traf¿c.

About 7 km from Tabanan City on the road north to Penebel is the outdoor conservancy of Taman Kupu Kupu, the largest butterfly park in Indonesia. Covered by vast mesh netting, the flower gardens and lush environs provide food to the caterpillars and home to hundreds of the flitting insects representing 20 species. Bridges, ponds and fountains grace this self-contained and beautifully landscaped little world, a thoroughgoing introduction to the grace, beauty and variety of Lepidoptera.

A visitor’s ¿rst impression of Tabanan can be deceptive. The vibrancy of this rich rice growing regency goes much deeper than the sight and sound of big trucks grinding their way to the port of Gilimanuk on the island’s northwestern tip. Increasingly sought after for sur¿ng, sunbathing and pure relaxation and popular with villa owners, this 30-km-long southwestern littoral of Bali is ideal for those looking for a quiet escape. Tabanan is a great place just to meander down country lanes and view life as it is lived daily.

A further 5 km (12 km from Tabanan), take a left turn at the intersection leading up to G. Batukaru. The entrance to the short road to the delightful and relaxing Yeh Panes Hot Springs is on the right after a bridge over a broad river and restaurant. The hot, pungent, sulfurous mineral waters in private outdoor spa enclosures, all of different sizes, are particularly popular on weekends when the open parking area to the west ¿lls with families who bathe in the rushing naturally hot river.

The inactive Batukaru volcano is the most westerly of Bali’s three highest summits and completely dominates the regency.

Tabanan’s scenic highlands are a cool arcadia of hot springs, forests of towering trees; mountain villages with fresh, crisp air; premier hiking trails; overÀowing fruit, vegetable and Àower markets; austere lakeside temples; small high-altitude hotels and hill resorts; two ¿ne golf courses and the most magni¿cent rice ¿eld scenery on the island.

The western uplands of G. Batukaru are famous for their m a g n i f i c e n t l a n d s c a p e s .

Wongaya Gede, 27 km north of Tabanan, is the untouristed “back door” entrance to Jatiluwih on Batukaru’s southern s l o p e s . Ta k e t h e narrow twisting road east through the 700-m-high Jatiluwih rice ¿elds. The farmers here cultivate a hearty variety of rice called padi bali, which grows up to 120 cm in height. Harvested only twice yearly, this rice is Àuf¿er and more fragrant than the more recently introduced “miracle rice” varieties. Get to the Jatiluwih area early, as it tends to cloud over in the afternoons. From these heights you can take in the whole of southern Bali all the way to the coast.

Tabanan is not only Bali’s principal coffee growing region but also home to the spectacular Jatiluwih World Heritage Site, one of Indonesia’s most fertile rice-growing districts. With three laborintensive crops of high-yield rice grown each year, the farmers of Tabanan average 7-8 tons of rice per ha, making them some of the most productive agriculturalists in all Indonesia.

Almost any side road along the coastal highway will eventually lead to a small ¿shing village where routines go on relatively uninterrupted. Along these southern black sand beaches enjoy stunning seascapes with the mountains and rice terraces serving as backdrops - no dogs, no tourists, not even ¿shermen. At night, a long unbroken line of twinkling lights from ¿shing platforms stretches across the vast horizon of the Indian Ocean to the west.

W West of Tabanan City, tthe coffee-growing rregion of Pupuan is on tthe panoramic road n north from Antosari to S Seririt, the island’s m most westerly northssouth road. With its cclean air, Pupuan is an id ideal area for hiking a and mountain biking tthrough clove, cacao and coffee plantations.

Of the limited number of hotels along this entire stretch of road, the most unique, well run and environmentally responsible is Cempaka Belimbing Guest Villas (www.cempakabelimbing.com) in the mountain village of Suradadi.

Northeast of the city, 4 km north of Kediri in Kukuh village, is the state-owned sacred forest of Alas Kedaton, one of the last remaining old growth forests in western Bali. In and around the temple cavort more than 1000 monkeys who belong to three groups, each with its own rajah. Smaller than Sangeh’s monkey forest, the monkeys are friendlier and better behaved. Walking from the parking lot, you’ll pass through an excellent art market with some very good bargains. Buy some peanuts for the monkeys at the entrance. Your guide and protector will soon appear to take you around the forest’s cool, peaceful paths.

Tabanan stretches from the coast to as high as 700 m on the lower slopes of the imposing G. Batukaru (2,276 m), Bali’s second highest. The regency’s higher climes are alpine with mountain streams, moss, prehistoric tree ferns, wildÀowers, creepers, orchids, leeches, butterÀies, birds and screaming monkeys. The fresh healthy air starts right after you leave Tabanan City on the road directly north to the district capital of Penebel.

E Except for the Bali B Barat National Park, t the pristine rainforest c covering G. Batukaru is t the only wilderness region left on this densely populated is island.

On the volcano’s s south slope is Pura L Luhur, 45 minutes (23 k km) north of Tabanan C City and just beyond Wangaya Gede village. Because of its remote location at the very end of the road, the complex is empty most of the time. This sacred mountain sanctuary and royal sad-kahyangan temple, was built to venerate deities of mountains and lakes. At 1,300 m, it lies amidst what is essentially a botanic garden of Àowering frangipani and hibiscus with a gigantic, uninhabited, humid tropical forest behind it. Steps east of the main temple complex lead down to an arti¿cial lake, a symbolic microcosm of the Hindu Mount Meru.

Another route north is from Mengwi, 4 km west of Tabanan City.

Driving up to Bedugul, the landscape of the southern plains changes from tiers of gentle rice ¿elds to gardens of onions, cabbages, carrots and cauliÀower. Thatched palm buildings give way to sturdy structures made of wood, brick and stone to withstand the heavy rains. Bedugul lies on the eastern shore of Lake Bratan, a mammoth crater formed by a prehistoric eruption of the G. Catur, which towers over the lake. Located in the middle of Tabanan’s cool central highlands, 48 km from Denpasar, this green and fertile area supplies fresh fruit and vegetables for not only Bali but to other islands. With its comfortable accommodations, lakeside views, placid water, boating and water sports, pine forests and steep jungle-covered hills, Bedugul has been a popular weekend retreat since Dutch times, a blessed change from Bali’s tropical humidity. At over 1,200 m with a temperature of 18-24 C., it can get quite cold at night.

the gardens of trumpet-Àower trees and gladiola. Best to go in the late afternoon.

The colorful Candikuning Market sells a cornucopia of wonderful luscious fruits like pomelo (jeruk Bali), passion fruit, bananas, jackfruit, strawberries, mangoes and pomegranates as well as such temperate-zone year-round vegetables and spices such as oregano, rosemary, basil, parsley, lemon grass, pepper, paprika, nutmeg, citrus leaf, chive, turmeric (but not true saffron!) plus a dizzying variety of krupuk and emping crackers and other snacks made from peanuts, sweet potatoes and tempe. Also crafts, textiles, clothing, fake watches and souvenirs. Bargain vigorously!

In the plant nurseries behind the market are tier upon tier of fresh Àowers like hydrangeas, begonias, cempaka, canna lilies, rose bushes, exotic orchids, potted ferns and seeds (biji) or seedlings (bibit) and ornamental plants. Bring an oleh-oleh (small present) back from your trip. At wholesale market town of Baturiti, on the twisting mountain road 5 km south, lunch in one of the lookout restaurants with breathtaking views and wonderful fresh air.

The start of the 2.5-km-long road up to Bali’s sprawling Eka Karya botanical garden lies just 150 m south of Candikuning market.

Founded in 1959, the park is dedicated to the study of the mountain Àora of eastern Indonesia. The extensive 130-hectare garden is situated at 1,200-1,450 m elevation on the hilly lower slopes of 2,065-m-high G. Pohen. Benches, sitting pavilions, herbarium, cafeterias and clean restrooms are all provided. It’s a one-km walk from the parking lot to the top (north) featuring a collection of 500 varieties of orchids. Plants are arranged in family and species order – lilies, bougainvillea, bamboo, palms, etc.

Specimens are labeled in Latin while park signs are in Indonesian.

Like a huge, cool, green and inviting country estate, this is a superb place for a family picnic and kid’s romp, lover’s tryst or a quiet shady meditative stroll.

The melodious names of the villages which dot Tabanan’s coastal s t r i p – Lalanglinggah, B e r a b a n , Ye h Lating – invoke an innocence that has been lost in Bali’s more developed southern districts.

Here is utter solitude but without the remoteness, where lush green terraces tumble down to a shore of black sand hammered by big crashing waves. The series of glistening black sand beaches stretch from Seminyak north to Tanah Lot is coastal Bali at its ¿nest. Along this southern arc facing the Bali Strait are a whole series of stately sea temples – Puru Petitenget, Pura Rambut Siwi and Pura Sekenan. All pay homage to the guardian spirits of the sea, but none is more spiritually charged than Tanah Lot. Like a delicate Chinese painting, this pagoda-like temple 13 km southwest of Tabanan City sits on a huge eroded rock offshore.

Worshippers from all over Bali arrive laden with rice cakes, fruit, carved palm leaf and holy water to pray here. After parking your vehicle and paying the modest entrance fee, walk down a long pedestrian street full of shops and restaurants. At the end through a big gateway, a lovely panorama unfolds as heavy surf pounds the rocky beach and spumes of spray shoot high into the sunlit air. Watch the hypnotic sunset from the park opposite with the oddly shaped outcropping silhouetted against a blood-red sky.

West of Tanah Lot, within walking distance, is a serene beach called Nyanyi. An hour’s walk along a jagged coastline to the northwest towards Negara is Kedungu Beach. Other unvisited and uncrowded beaches are Seseh, Beraban and Kelecung. Yeh Gangga, in Sudimara village 30 km west of Denpasar, has a cliff side temple, showers and sanitary facilities, pounding waves and vendors at day’s end sell spring rolls and grilled corn. It’s not uncommon in the late afternoons to see horseback riders galloping along the dark sand sparkling like diamonds. **

On a small promontory jutting out from the Lake Bratan’s western shore on the main north-south highway is the peaceful Ulun Danu Temple with its elegant roofed meru towers appearing to Àoat on the surface of the lake. The lake is a vital source of irrigation and the destination of pilgrims from all over the island who come to worship the rice goddess Dewi Danu and other deities. Shrines here are the focus of island-wide ceremonies meant to ensure a steady and continued supply of water. Turn into the big parking area packed with tour busses and rows of gaudy souvenir shops and walk under the canopy of a huge banyan tree and through

Local News Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran Just Buying Time Indonesian AG Says A further legal challenge by two Australians facing execution is just an attempt to buy more time alive, Indonesia’s attorney general says.

Muhammad Prasetyo has welcomed a Jakarta court’s decision to deny Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran the chance to appeal their death sentences by challenging the president’s refusal to consider clemency.

Chan and Sukumaran had argued that Joko Widodo did not give proper consideration to their pleas for clemency. “It was an unusual legal effort, so what has been decided by the State Administration Court was a right [decision],” Mr. Prasetyo said.

Chan and Sukumaran’s lawyers have vowed to launch a constitutional court challenge next.

“This, I feel ... is proof that they intend to buy time only, by playing with our law,” Mr. Prasetyo said, adding that the pair had now exhausted all legal avenues.

“It’s clear the Indonesian authorities haven’t grappled with the question of the exceptional rehabilitation,” he told ABC

News Breakfast.

“If I can make one point about this - in 2007, the Indonesian constitutional court declared that if a person on death row could demonstrate over a period of 10 years that they had engaged in praiseworthy conduct, as they call it, then they should be entitled to have their sentences commuted to either life or 20 years.”

He said the constitutional court appeal could take several months.“The timelines would involve filing the application this week; there’d be a preliminary hearing in one to two weeks beyond that,” he said.

“And then the court itself would set a timeline, but these things normally take a number of months.”

Mr. O’Connell denied the pair were merely buying time.“This is not about delay for delay’s sake,” he said. “It’s about getting their case fairly and properly considered.

“They know that there was a chance of winning and a chance of losing ... they’re also aware that we’re going to keep fighting.” (April 8th 2015)

Sydney Mum, Mary Jane May Have Been Victims of Suitcase Case Scam Traffickers using Malaysia as an international drugs transit point are believed to have set up a Filipino maid facing imminent execution with the two Bali Nine organizers in a similar way to Sydney grandmother Maria Elvira Pinto Exposto.

Philippine authorities are planning last-minute efforts to try to save the life of Mary Jane Veloso, 30, who insists she was duped into carrying drugs in a suitcase from Kuala Lumpur to Indonesia and was sentenced to death in an Indonesian court in 2010.

Mrs. Pinto Exposto, 52, who is facing execution if found guilty in Malaysia, also insists she was duped into carrying drugs concealed in a suitcase, in her case to Kuala Lumpur from Shanghai last year.

Malaysian police say traffickers have been increasingly using Kuala Lumpur as a transit point for drugs, mainly from China, that are destined for other countries.

The traffickers often con unsuspecting women to carry the drugs on international flights arriving and departing Kuala Lumpur, police say.

Last year Malaysian police arrested 32 people, 18 of them foreigners, for allegedly carrying drugs worth about $20 million through the Malaysian capital.

Amid growing support for Veloso in the Philippines, the country’s Drug Enforcement Agency and national police have reopened investigations into the circumstances of Veloso carrying 2.6 kilograms of heroin from Kuala Lumpur to Yogyakarta.

Investigators from both agencies visited her in the Wirogunan women’s jail in Yogyakarta last week. Veloso, a mother of two sons aged 12 and seven from an impoverished family who married at the age of 16, insists she travelled to Kuala Lumpur after being offered a house-keeping job but when she got there she was told by an acquaintance it was no longer available.

The acquaintance suggested she fly to Yogyakarta for a job

there and bought her a suitcase for the trip. A customs scanner revealed the drugs concealed in a secret compartment in the suitcase when she arrived on an AirAsia flight in Yogyakarta.

Omar Thik Lim, director of Customs at Malaysia’s international airport, shows the bag allegedly containing drugs that was being carried by Maria Elvira Pinto Exposto when she was arrested on December 7, 2014.

“Mary Jane does not deserve to be executed, her two children do not deserve to lose their mother, over a crime she did not willingly commit,” said Migrante International, a group that represents Philippine overseas workers.

Like Australia, the Philippines has made numerous appeals to Indonesian President Joko Widodo to stop the executions of 10 drug felons in Indonesia, including Bali Nine organizers Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran, who on Monday lost their appeal to challenge their clemency rejection in the administrative court in Jakarta.

In late March Indonesia’s Supreme Court rejected a review of Veloso’s case despite her legal team saying that she had a strong case for her death sentence to be commuted.

The review application had delayed the executions because Indonesian authorities are planning to put all 10 before a firing squad at the same time.

Philippines Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario visited Veloso in jail on March 24, indicating that the government in Manila has made her case a diplomatic priority.

“Our embassy in Jakarta will meet with the lawyers of Mary Jane to consider all options,” said Charles Jose, a spokesman for the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs. “This includes the ground for a second appeal.”

Indonesian authorities say they are waiting for a confirmed plan to transfer Veloso to the Nusakambangan prison island, where Chan and Sukumaran are being held and where the executions will take place. (April 8th 2015)

Denpasar Woman Joins ISIS Terror Group Bali Police have confirmed that one of the 16 Indonesia citizens, who have fled the country to allegedly fight for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, is from Denpasar. The 23-year-old woman, identified by the initials SA reportedly lived in the village of Monang-Maning, in Denpasar’s east.

Over recent weeks Bali Police have mobilized officers in three separate task forces to monitor Indonesian citizens who intend to flee the country to fight for ISIS. The task forces include an investigation team, and two counter radicalization teams who together operate under the Intelligence faction of Bali Police. (March 26th 2015) Fuel Prices Rise Rp 500 Per Liter As from Saturday March 28th, diesel and premium fuel prices increased throughout Indonesia by Rp. 500 per liter.

In Java, Bali, and Madura premium and diesel fuel prices, previously set at Rp. 6,900 and Rp. 6,400 respectively, were raised to Rp. 7,400 and Rp. 6,900 per liter. Premium and diesel prices for areas outside of Java, Bali, and Madura were also raised Rp. 500 to Rp. 7,300 and Rp. 6,900 per liter, respectively. According to Marketing Director of national fuel conglomerate PT Pertamina Persero, Ahmad Bambang, the price hike was due to increases in global fuel prices over the last month in addition to a weakening rupiah. (March 28th 2015) Local Residents Get High as Police Destroy Marijuana with Massive Bonfire An Indonesian police force might want to rethink its drugs disposal policy after accidentally helping residents of one district get high as kite. Destroying tonnes of marijuana in a big bonfire proved to be as reckless as it sounds as those witnessing the event started inhaling the fumes. Journalists and locals began feeling dizzy as police officers, who were wearing masks, destroyed tonnes of marijuana stacked up in a field. The fumes drifted into homes located near the police station in West Jakarta, Indonesian news website Kompas reports. “I got a headache because I wasn’t wearing a mask,” said one journalist. Another reporter who started feeling dizzy said he had to sit down and have a cup of tea. The marijuana was seized in earlier raids, with thousands of ecstasy pills and crystal meth uncovered by airport customs officials also being destroyed. A spokesperson for Indonesia’s National Narcotics Agency insisted that inhaling the fumes would not lead to any long-term health problems. (March 26th 2015) Australian Ambassador says there is “No Indonesia Boycott” Australia’s ambassador to Indonesia Paul Grigson said on Tuesday (31/3) that the Australian government never suggested its citizens should boycott Indonesia. “There was never any tourism boycott from the Australian government… Australians can go wherever they wish to go,” Grigson said. Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop warned Jakarta in February that her fellow citizens could boycott Indonesia, including Bali, which is a popular holiday spot for travelers, to show their disapproval over the imminent execution of two Australians in Indonesia.

Indonesia’s unwavering commitment to press on with the execution of Myuran Sukumaran, 33, and Andrew Chan, 31, who are among a group of 10 drug convicts next in line to face the firing squad, has ignited a wave of indignation from the Australian public and its politicians. Joko rejected Chan and Sukumaran’s clemency pleas in January.

Jakarta Archbishop Slams Death Penalty

61

More than 300 Slave Fishermen Rescued from Indonesian Island

Jakarta’s Catholic Archbishop has expressed his concern over Indonesia’s use of the death penalty, adding the treatment of Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran was a show of force over humanity. Following Easter Sunday mass in Jakarta, Ignatius Suharyo Hardjoatmodjo told reporters the church was strictly against the use of the death penalty.

“I’m not sure at all that Mary Jane is guilty,” Archbishop Ignatius said. Making reference to Philippine national Mary Jane who is also facing execution by firing squad. “I don’t know about the evidence in the trial, but what I know that she doesn’t understand English ... she knows only Tagalog and when she was on trial, no one translated in that language. “How could the trial have been fair?” The Philippines government says it plans to file a second application for a judicial review for the single mother of two.

Jakarta plans to send 10 drug offenders to the firing squad at once - its biggest ever execution - but is waiting for all to run out of legal options. (April 5th 2015) Immigration Scraps Departure and Arrival Cards As from April 1st 2015 departure and arrival cards will no longer need to be completed at Ngurah Rai Airport as immigration unveils their new border control management system Frience Simolang, the Head of Data Collection and Entry at Ngurah Rai’s Immigration Office said. According to Simolang, the Management of Immigration Information System (SIMKIM) is expected to dramatically reduce the time needed to complete immigration checks thereby allowing the departure and arrival of travelers to be more efficient. (March 26th 2015) Noelene and Yvana Bischoff Deaths Final Verdict A Queensland coroner has found an allergic reaction caused the deaths of a Sunshine Coast mother and daughter in Bali last year. Noelene Bischoff, 54, and her 14-year-old daughter Yvana died on January 4 less than 24 hours after arriving in eastern Bali for a holiday. Non-inquest findings by coroner Terry Ryan show their main cause of death was an allergic reaction to food, most likely to have been fish.

Asthma was also a contributing factor along with obesity, in the mother’s case. The coroner said he does not believe more useful information would be obtained by holding an inquest, given the location of the deaths and potential witnesses, along with challenges presented in any further investigation. The coroner also said the circumstances surrounding the deaths highlighted the importance of travelers being fully informed about the risks of traveling to particular destinations, and the importance of food safety generally. “While Australia has a comprehensive food safety framework, consumers of food obtained in regions without such a framework, or outside the regulated sale of seafood within Australia, need to be aware of the significant risks associated with eating fish that may not have been transported and stored under controlled temperatures,” he wrote. At the time of their deaths there were conflicting reports that food poisoning from a local restaurant or a food allergy may have been the cause. (March 31st 2015)

The same trawlers that had enslaved countless migrant fishermen for years carried more than 300 of them to freedom Saturday (4/4) after a dramatic rescue from a remote Indonesian island. After 17 hours overnight at sea, the men, mostly from Myanmar, filed off the boats and walked to the site of their new temporary home where they

were safe. “I’m so happy, I wanted to go home for so long,” said Aung Aung, 26, who lifted his hair on the left side of his head to show a fat, jagged scar stretching from his lip to the back of his neck - the result of a machete attack by his captain’s son. The men were among hundreds of migrant workers revealed in an Associated Press investigation to have been lured or tricked into leaving their countries to go to Thailand, where they were put on boats to Indonesia.

From there, they were forced to catch seafood that was shipped to Thailand and exported around the world. An

(April 5th 2015) US Couple May Face Long Sentences Over Bali Suitcase Murder Indonesian prosecutors on Tuesday (31/3) recommended NC/Ns/G - 27 July 11

an American woman and her boyfriend spend 15 and 18 years respectively behind bars for the “sadistic” murder of the woman’s mother, whose body was found stuffed in a suitcase on Bali. Heather Mack, 19, and Tommy Schaefer, 21, are accused of the premeditated murder of Sheila von Wiese Mack, a charge that carries the death penalty in Indonesia. However, prosecutors called for Heather Mack to be jailed for 15 years, saying she had admitted the crime and had a baby daughter. Mack brought the two-week-old, who is living with her in jail, to court on Tuesday. “The defendant was sadistic to her own mother,” prosecutor Eddy Arta Wijaya told the court in the Balinese capital Denpasar.

Mack, who maintains her innocence, and Schaefer had been staying with the 62-year-old victim at the same hotel. They were arrested after they fled to another part of the island following the murder in August. Schaefer confessed during a court appearance earlier this month to killing his girlfriend’s mother – but argued he acted in self-defense after she attacked him. Prosecutors say he “blindly” hit Von Wiese Mack with a bowl in a fit of rage after she directed a racial slur at him during an argument. Schaefer is black. In a separate trial on Tuesday, prosecutor Ni Luh Oka Ariani Adikarini said Schaefer was guilty of “deliberately plotting” to take his girlfriend’s mother’s life and recommended 18 years in jail. The indictment said Mack hid in the bathroom during the attack before the couple stuffed the victim’s body in a suitcase. No date has been set for the verdicts and sentencing. Judges do not have to follow prosecutors’ recommendations. (March 31st 2015)

SEND CV TO : CFSHOP6@GMAIL.COM Here is another Lao dish we learned at the Tanmak cooking school in Luang Prabang, Laos.

T h i s i s supposed to serve one but I can never eat it all. It’s easy enough to double or triple the recipe for more people.

And I like that I can easily make it vegetarian or not. I’m a sucker for the fresh rice noodles I find at Tiara Dewata but you can substitute dried ones soaked in warm water until soft.

Lao Rice Noodles with Veggies Chicken or Tofu Serves 1 Ingredients: - 150 g fresh rice noodles (you can use dried rice noodles - just soak them in warm water until soft before proceeding with the recipe) - 2 1/2 Tbl. rice bran or canola oil - 1 large egg - 2 garlic cloves, pressed - 100 g tofu or chicken, cut into small pieces - 120 g leafy greens such as bok choy, bayam (Balinese spinach), or sayur hijau - 1/2 cup water - 1 tsp. cornstarch dissolved in 1 tsp. of water - 1 Tbl. soy sauce mixed with 1 Tbl. water - 1/2 tsp. fish sauce - 1/2 tsp. palm sugar - 1/8 tsp. ground cayenne pepper - 2 baby tomatoes. cut in half - 1/4 yellow onion, cut in quarters - chili sauce of your choice - 1/2 lime - sambal Bali - 1 green chili finely chopped and stirred into 2 Tbl. soy sauce

Directions:

NC/Es/15 Apr 15

Put the fresh rice noodles in a bowl with warm water and gently swish the noodles around until they separate, being careful not to tear them. (If you are using dried noodles soak them until they are soft.) Pour into a strainer and discard the water. Set the noodles aside.

In a wok or heavy frying pan heat 2 Tbl. of the oil. Toss the drained noodles in the oil and then press them down with the back of a spatula for about 2 minutes or until the noodles are nicely browned. When they release from the pan flip them over and brown the other side.

Crack the egg over the noodles, break the yolk and let the egg fry with the noodles welding them all together. Flip this over for a few seconds. When the egg is cooked to your liking remove the egged noodles to a plate and set aside.

Heat the remaining 1/2 Tbl. oil in the wok and add the garlic stirring until the color changes and then quickly add the tofu or chicken and stir fry until done. Add the greens and 1/4 - 1/2 cup of water. Lower the heat and continue stirring until the water is nearly evaporated.

Now add the dissolved cornstarch, the soy and fish sauces, the palm sugar, cayenne and the tomato halves. Stir well before adding the yellow onion quarters. Stir fry these until they are done to your liking and then add the drained noodles. When the noodles are well coated put the whole shebang on a serving plate.

Serve with little bowls of chili sauce, lime wedges, and the sambal Bali.

Mi khuaam suk dan a han klong than! (Which means bon appetit in Lao)
