NC/Ns/G - 27 July 11

foto udara, video dan 360-panorama

by Bill Dalton

Tandjung Sari by Diana Darling The Tandjung Sari became the seminal boutique hotel of tropical Asia without anyone hardly noticing it. It all begun as just a place to spend the night for its owner, Wija Wawo-Runtu (1926-2001) and his English wife Judith when they came to Bali from Jakarta on shopping trips for their antique business. Legend has it that Judith chose the land in 1962 while scouting the palm-fringed coast in a sailing jukung. They started building on a grassy coconut grove behind a small temple called Pura Tandjung Sari (“temple of the cape of Àowers”).

Within a few years of the hotel’s opening, it became internationally renowned among celebrities, ambassadors and the rich and famous of the era as the place to stay – if you could get in.

Tandjung Sari celebrates the 50th anniversary of this legendary hotel. The opening pages describe the coastal town of Sanur, how its reputation as a center for witchcraft came about, the invasion of Sanur by the Dutch in 1906, the Japanese troop landing on the same beach in 1942.

The book then goes on to tell the story of not only a unique hotel but also chronicles through ¿rst-hand accounts the whole postwar development of tourism and the arts and crafts industry on Bali as well as sketches of all the major contributing players from the 1960s to the present.

The evocation of what Sanur – and Bali by extension - was like in the 1960s is wonderfully written. At the time, only long-haul propeller plane Àights from Bangkok or Singapore could land at Bali’s dusty and dilapidated airport. Hotel reservations were done by post, telegram or telex, and there was no electricity or phone service. Few roads were paved and ground transportation was by bemo minivans.

Big Chevy Impala rented cars made the drive to Sanur through a tunnel of trees and endless village walls. Most people made their living from farming. The only sounds were of cowbells and the cluck of chickens.

By 1974, some 30 new hotels and villas had been built along the beach in Sanur. A few were the most prestigious addresses on Bali – the tall blockish Bali Beach Hotel at the northern end of the beach and the four-star government-run Sanur Beach Hotel at the southern end.

Between the two – and in¿nitely more chic – was the Tandjung Sari. A painting by Ida Bagus Nyoman Rai circa 1970 gives the reader an idea the innocent idyllic nature of Bali during those early days.

The elite international set was drawn to the Tandjung Sari

by Dutch-speaking Wija Wawo-Runtu’s good nature, his deep erudition about Bali and his pleasure in putting people together. The hotel became a gathering place for expats from Sanur and Ubud who would arrive for the festive dinner evenings of music and dance performances or the colonial-style rijstaffel, as much a cultural presentation as it was a superb culinary extravaganza.

To be invited for drinks at the Tandjung Sari Bar was a badge of honor. Among the distinguished visitors were Ringo Star, Margaret Mead, Paul Getty Jr., Kirk Douglas, David Bowie, hotelier Adrian Zecha, painter Donald Friend, Queen Ingrid of Denmark, architect Peter Muller and Star

Black and Hans Hoefer who wrote Bali’s ¿rst guidebook.

The book’s appendix “People in the Story” is a virtual Who’s Who of architects, designers, craftsmen, writers, entrepreneurs, photographers, collectors, ¿lm makers and dancers whose lives intersected at one time or the other with this one-of-a-kind hotel. The guest books must be worth a fortune for their signatures alone.

Where the book really resonates is in the many recollections and odd and funny observations of guests and staff: Calvin Klein dropping magic mushrooms, Yoko Ono with her big body guard, Ingmar Bergman cleaning up the hotel living room, Mick Jagger not leaving his room for fear of autograph seekers, the Italian ambassador playing scrabble, a Duchess asking the gardeners to remove their shirts, and other sketches and peculiar habits of the hotel’s strange birds in residence.

Every successful hotel in Bali owes a debt of gratitude to the Tandjung Sari, the inspiration behind the concept of “barefoot luxury,” its holistic setting the prototype of the stylish “native-style” lodging where the staff wore native dress and were encouraged to cosset guests. The chapter “Handmade Hotel” is an excellent capsule summary of Bali’s architectural traditions, covering materials, tools and structures, building conventions and designs for both open and enclosed spaces. The Tandjung Sari was the ¿rst hotel to create rich, cool, quiet and roomy interior spaces and big open airy pavilions (wantilan) while maintaining the feeling of being close to nature.

Wija Wawo-Runtu is credited with the adoption of the rule that no building should be higher than a coconut palm, the use of paving stones with batik or imprinted leaf motifs, innovative statuary, crockery, Majapahit-style red bricks and hand-painted decors that were to inÀuence the design of Balinese gardens over the next 35 years. He pioneered antique doors set in coral walls, a glamorous look that eventually was to become de rigueur in the island’s coastal resorts and residences.

C/Ns/I-05 Feb 14

Because of its abundant ideas, the book should serve to inspire a whole range of professionals in the hospitality industry – hoteliers, managers, architects, building contactors, designers, interior decorators and food & beverage and guest relations staffs. Whole illustrated sections are devoted to how to build a traditional alang-alang grass roof, the judicious use of mud walls, gardening and landscaping tips and Tandjung Sari’s distinctive international and Indonesian regional cuisines.

This nostalgic book would also be of great interest to lovers of Sanur and will hold particular poignancy for long-term Bali residents who yearn for the slower rhythms of bygone days. In the closing paragraphs, the writer leads the reader as an honored guest on a sensuous tour of the premises while taking in the entire gamut of Balinese arts – the large and small, the simple and ornate – to witness ¿rst-hand a groundbreaking exercise in tropical architecture and design in which the hotel’s storied past and the present are one and the same.

Tandjung Sari: A Magical Door to Bali by Diana Darling, ISBN 978-981-4260-93-0, hardback, 168 pages, glossary, index, dimensions 27 cm X 20.5 cm. Available for Rp340,000 at Periplus and Ganesha bookstores.

Article

Bali Cosmetics Ever since Cleopatra sank into her milk bath to preserve the softness of her skin, man, or mostly woman, has used some form of product to enhance or preserve her looks. In ancient Egypt and Rome there are multiple references to the use of olive oil, beeswax, kohl and henna for beauti¿cation, along with less attractive concoctions made from the sweat of sheep’s wool, placenta or snails. Even the bible has a mention of Jezebel’s painted eyelids, along with various beauty treatments used by Esther.

Over this side of the world is no different. There are rich traditions of liberal and expert use of herbs and plants for everything from ailments to enhancements, many of which continue today.

Indonesia alone is vast botanical storehouse with some 6,500 species of plants, of which nearly 4,500 are native to Java. Small wonder then that royal palaces have scores of recipes for lotions and potions, many of which were jealously guarded for centuries but have now made it to the market. But you don’t have to be of noble blood to be a plant user. Even your average kampong dweller had some knowledge of which herbs to use both internally and externally to good effect.

In today’s more chemically -suspicious world, this plant-based knowledge is now all the more appealing. Most Indonesian based companies we looked at referenced traditional recipes and heritage as a major part of their product creation. From the tiny Cantika in Ubud to the mighty Mustika Ratu, it seems that trends towards natural, local and traditional are the way forward.

But how to distinguish and chose from the myriad of products?

Out west, the likes of Anita Roddick pioneered the translocation of remote plants into lotions, tinctures and skin care, simplifying and demystifying exotic ingredients in a way that made Body Shop enormously successful.

Here, you still may ¿nd yourself attempting to decipher the Bahasa Indonesia label on a local product and not knowing what the ingredients are. Bilasan Santan conditioner or Merang shampoo anyone?

That other subconscious reference point we use to drive our purchases– pretty packaging - is notably absent from most of the Indonesian market, with white plastic bottles and garish, often unappealing logos belying the ef¿cacy of the product within. Get past that, and in amongst the generic Garniers’, Pantenes’ and Niveas’ on your Hardy’s supermarket shelves are a host of interesting local concoctions that are well worth trying.

We picked a few companies, some huge, some cottage, and used a posse of mostly female testers, ranging in age from 14 to 70 to give a selection of Indonesian-made items a try. Some products also travelled off-island, going as far a¿eld as London, England and Lamu, Kenya in this process. We only tested products for skin and hair, and not the internally ingested jamu’s also offered by a number of these companies.

Indonesia’s beauty behemoths Martha Tilaar With a turnover of $75mill, this is the largest beauty product company in Indonesia. It houses a series of different brands covering hair, skin, make up and spa items, mostly the company asserts, from traditional natural recipes.

We tried out the mid range Sariayu products and found the body lotions appealing with Esotik Tanjung for Rp14,000 a favourite for its light texture and evocative smell. In the higher range Biokos, products are conveniently packaged into decades – 20’s 30’s 40’s up to 60’s Some of the face creams are quite thick and take some rubbing to absorb, but overall the quality is good and price most reasonable compared to similar imported products. The wrinkle ¿lling serum for example will only set you back some Rp70,000 and a tub of rich 40’s moisturiser about Rp50,000. A slew of salons across the island use Biokos for their facials, so getting information or testing a product is easy.

You can also visit the Martha Tilaar spa in Legian where, for Rp 40,000, you can mix your own lipstick colour from various primary colours on offer. They melt and meld your ¿nal result for you to take home in a jar wrapped in a lovely linen sleeve.

Viva is the oldest cosmetic company in Indonesia and much praised for its eyebrow pencil, which, like many products, isn’t beautifully packaged but costs a mere Rp17,000 and is universally approved by a slew of Indonesian women, young and old. Beware fakes – its popular enough to have generated rip-offs of far lesser

quality. Other products from Viva that are also worth a go – the cucumber astringent is fresh and light in this humid climate and is good decanted into a spray bottle.

Mustika Ratu, a 2013 winner of Indonesia’s best brand award, is another huge company making some 700 products. Linked to Javanese royalty, the founder of the company used traditional spices and recipes for their varied offerings. Our particular favourites were the powdered face-masks (although having to procure rosewater to mix them was a faff), the Taman Sari Royal Heritage cocoa scrub was wonderful and their entire range of shampoos are exotic and work well.

Natur - This company focuses on natural hair products, with some relatively garish packaging. The “hair fall” shampoo was a clear winner in a straw poll of favourite products, followed by the anti dandruff, and the ginseng conditioner. The lack of English on the packaging makes purchase a challenge, but is worth trying to decipher the pictures or cornering an Indonesian speaker to help.

Curiously the pamphlet inside does have an English translation.

La Tulipe – French named, Indonesian made, they are renowned for their acne product range and also their eye shadow bases, which cost a mere Rp20,000 Wardah – a halal range of products that seems to target “hijabwearing women of inspiration.” We only tried a facial scrub, priced at the very reasonable Rp11,500, which is light, non-soapy, and fresh.

Beware the whitening in local products. Watch out for items containing bengkoang or with the words pemutih kulit on the packaging unless you are specifically aiming for a paler complexion. And while based on traditional recipes, products do contain parabens and preservatives. This is found across the spectrum for the larger Indonesian manufacturers. Not so for the….

Smaller, natural, Bali based producers. Our favourites Sensatia It was hard to avoid using superlatives when we tested perfectionist Michael R Lorenti Jr’s products. Made in an unusually tech GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) facility in sleepy Jasri in east Bali, almost everything about the way this company operates is positive. Styled as a pro¿tsharing co-operative, it gives back significantly to the community that houses it, and employs many in supplementary ¿elds of loofah growing, seaweed collection and coconut oil making.

International organisations such as Dying to look Good, an out¿t that have written a book on the harmful effects of chemicals contained in cosmetics, have endorsed their products as “impeccably pure” and they are members of a slew of ethical organisation’s including the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and the fastidious Green Products Alliance.

But most importantly, Sensatia makes a range of potions that are delicious.

Using a fusion of local and imported ingredients their products won praise for smell, texture and effectiveness. Favourites were Tropical WildÀower body butter, at Rp 300,000 for 100ml, which is an absolutely wonderful cream containing grapefruit, ylang ylang, lavender, geranium, jasmine in a combo base of shea butter, moluccan almond and wheatgerm. Second was a light and lovely body Vanilla and Mandarin body milk, hoarded and sparingly used by the tester who wanted it to last and last. The glass bottles add a luxe of touch but are sometimes annoying to carry for nomadic travellers.

There are anti wrinkle oils in age ranges, and a great series of handmade soaps including the lovely herbal lulur soap that references a traditional Balinese recipe and a cellulite busting rich shea butter soap called Relaxation (Rp 80,000) None of their items contain any form of chemicals preservative, relying instead on sea salt and essential oils for product longevity.

It means their stuff lasts a max of two years, which is a good shelf life for such uncompromisingly natural products.

Prices for Sensatia are not cheap, but for quality and full-on commitment to green principles they are hard to beat, and a bargain alongside international natural brands of similar aspiration such as Aveda and Dr Hauschka.

Sensatia also makes complete own label ranges for some of Bali’s top end hotels including Alila group worldwide, Sentosa Seminyak, Karma Resorts, the Chedi, Tjendana resorts, and is about to embark on a special range of Sensatia Leisure spa products for host of other, smaller resorts in Bali and abroad. www.sensatia.com Utama Spice A long running liaison between Melanie Templar and Dayu Suci resulted in the foundation of Utama Spice some 20 years ago.

With a ¿erce commitment to an environmental and natural way to produce cosmetics using traditional Balinese wisdom, this company has come a long way from the incense sticks that ¿rst propelled them to fame.

Dayu’s father was a pedanda and much of their knowledge was acquired from ancient lontars in Klung Kung. Months, sometimes years of experimentation have led to a comprehensive range of body lotions, incense, essential oils, soaps and scrubs based on traditional recipes and encompassing a Tri Hita Kirana (working harmoniously with nature, humanity and the divine) approach.

The company, now run by Melanie’s daughter Ria, makes all its own bases, uses recycled wood in its shops and eschews packaging in its attempt to stay with its green, natural ethos.

Ria is particularly proud of the “Begone Bug”, a natural insect repellent containing legundi, citronella, clove and cajeput oils.

With no deet it’s particularly kid-safe. While the smell was universally liked, one tester found it separated and was less effective than her favourite natural Thai concoction. The other tester loved it so much she went to the factory and bought an industrial one litre bottle and a few pump dispensers which she regularly re¿lls and which sit all over her house.

The body balms are their other source of pride. Easy to carry in pragmatic plastic hardwearing containers, we found that some had unexpected side bene¿ts, perhaps due to their medicinal roots. When one tester burnt herself she reached for the only thing close by, her Fresh Soul body balm with fennel and mint (Rp 88,000 for 100g), and it turned out to have immediate soothing bene¿ts on her kitchen-scorched skin. Smell and consistency were also great, with my favourite balm being the rich Aphrodisia that doubles as an after sun lotion.

With a new branch on Jalan Danau Poso, in Sanur, not only is the range well displayed and easy to access, but you can also make your own personalised lip balm and body mist in store.

Utama Spice also supply Surfer girl, Waterbom, Misool Eco resort and a series of 4/5 star hotels including the Four Seasons, Banyan Tree and Ritz Carlton, Recent expansion has seen greater penetration within Indonesia, particularly on the retail front. http://www.utamaspicebali.com Cantika is well known in Ubud, with three spas and a passionate owner Ibu Jasi, who makes use of local ingredients and lore for her range of of herbal shampoos.

Due to no preservatives, products should be used within 2 months of purchase.

Nadis herbals, a small out¿t that also conducts herbal walks, set up shop three years ago. Pak Westi is a trainee ayurvedic doctor and along with potions there are anti cancer teas and numerous capsules treating everything from memory loss to digestion.

As former Utama Spice employees, their product lines bely their former experience - long burning hand rolled incense that doesn’t use tree shavings or toxic glue (rather a combo of bamboo and tapioca jelly pudding), mossie repellent and an award winning beeswax lip balm, along with a slew of massage oils used by salons such as Golden Hands and Bodyworks in Ubud.

Prices are good with lotions costing around Rp 30,000, which hints at the use of preservative-oriented pre-made bases that undermine their natural credentials.

Say What?

Question: I’m just over thirty and left my home and career in the US to travel for a year. Accustomed to having a generally busy schedule, I’m a bit of a workaholic and took a much-deserved break. On the opposite side of the world at this point for slightly over 6 months, I have very little experience dating and met an expat from Europe while I was in Vietnam. We’ve been traveling together for about a month. He’s divorced and a few years older than I am.

I didn’t expect much when we first met, but we ended up hitting it off despite the fact that he’s slightly shorter than I. Although I try hard to overlook our difference in height, I feel embarrassed when we’re together. He, on the other hand, has no problem with our almost 2 inch (5 cm) height difference.

When we first met and we exchanged life histories, I exaggerated details about a relationship I left back home; so that he would agree to keep our interaction casual.

Now, progressively, he keeps telling me he feels a unique connection between us and says he can easily fall in love with me. We do get along well and have great chemistry.

Knowing how commitment-phobic I am, he keeps joking about introducing me to his friends, taking me home to meet his family, and planning a wedding. Every time he has these romantic moments, I remind him that I don’t want anything more than what we have now. Other than those awkward moments -- and even those moments aren’t so awkward -- I feel relaxed and comfortable with him.

Gently, gently, he keeps trying to move things to the next level. Where we habitually rent separate quarters in the same hotel or guest house wherever we stop, he keeps suggesting that we share a larger room with more amenities. I’m hoping that all the glow and newness of this wears off soon, as it seems ridiculous to part ways just because he likes me so much. But I’ve been honest with him all along about my intentions. I like things as they are, yet I like feeling loved and desired. I’m just afraid that the situation may become too serious too fast before I realize it’s too late. I also feel horrible for saying this, but I feel as if I can do better.

Dr. ZZ: I have searched your missive for a question and found none; so I’m not sure what you want me to say. Do you feel odd being so hung up on your slight difference in height with this man? Are you seizing on that one detail because you are unable to articulate anything else that’s potentially “wrong” with him? Perhaps you are concerned that you are traveling with someone who is talking about marriage and meeting his family when the two of you have known each other for only a month. Is there a sense that he is not willing to hear and respect your “no”?

Since you mention that you are inexperienced in dating, this allows me to offer a few pointers. First of all, European men are, in general, more comfortable than American men in being explicitly romantic and talking about passion and romance. It’s a difference in style, which may be prompting him to perform in a way that he is accustomed to thinking women want. On the other hand, he may simply be lonely and trying extra hard to forge a connection. Whatever his motivation, it does not mean that you need to put up with behaviors that prompt you to feel uncomfortable. In a healthy relationship you can bring up concerns like this by saying something like this: “When you talk about marriage, it makes me uncomfortable. I don’t see this going there, and even if it were, it’s way too early to tell. When you keep bringing it up or pushing me to meet your family before the time is right, I question your ability to just ‘be’ and enjoy what we have.“ It is not unreasonable that you should meet someone nice and sexy who likes you a lot. That you are unable to think of a single logical reason to break up with him doesn’t necessarily mean that he is the right person for you. You don’t need a reason to break up with someone if something simply doesn’t feel right. There are a lot of people in the world with whom you are capable of clicking. Just because you happened to meet one doesn’t mean that there aren’t others, or that you’re going to be alone for the rest of your life if you let this one go. In truth, the fact that you have found one person means that traveling and following your heart’s desire is serving you well, and you are likely to meet other people with whom you hit it off as you continue on your journey.

If you have been honest with this man, and if you are enjoying your interaction with him, then continue traveling together for as long as that suits you. Just be prepared that a time may come when he will attempt to push you for some kind of commitment. When you say “No, I told you I didn’t want that,” he may feel angry and believe you betrayed him. Even though you are being totally honest with him, he may be hearing only what he wants to hear. If you feel annoyed and crowded, are truly embarrassed to be seen with him, and are sure you can do better, then the kindest thing to do is to end it. Whatever you decide, happy trails!

SCHEDULE THAT Bali Spirit Festival (19 – 23 March)

‘Have a Heart’ Charity Event (22 February)

I am not going to mention much about the Bali Spirit Festival as I am sure it has had plenty of coverage. Basically it is for five days, four nights with more than 6,000 people from 50 nations! Yoga, lifestyle, wellbeing, world music and community is what this festival is all about. The highlight is the world music concert. The website is user friendly and comprehensive. It is well worth a visit whether for an evening or for the duration, it depends on your schedule. This is one of Bali’s most prominent events and a must visit!

Where : Ubud Cost : (see website) Contact : www. Balispiritfestival.com

This event is hosted by the Rotary Club of Bali, Seminyak and it is always a pleasure to schedule events held by these people who work incredibly hard as volunteers to help raise money and make a big difference to the lives of the needy within the community. The focus of this event is the Smile Foundation of Bali who help local children to get cleft and cranio-facial medical treatment. The evening begins with a welcome cocktail followed by a three course dinner. Entertainment, auctions and raffle prizes will feature through the evening. Tickets can be purchased at Cocoon, Biasa (Seminyak), Harris Hotel (Kuta Beachwalk) and the Smile Shop in Ubud. With only 3 days to go and 160 tickets available hopefully you will not be disappointed. The dress code is semi formal.

When : 6.30 pm Cost : IDR850,000 Where : Cocoon Beach Club, Jl Double Six Terrace, Seminyak Contact : 0821 46323517 (Rotarian John Glass) 731266 (Cocoon) www.cocoonbeach.com

Coming Home Retreat (29 March – 7 April) This retreat is all about music, movement and meditation.

The focus is about ‘home’ or a point of return that can be created wherever you may go and how this can be used to feel more fulfilled and connected in daily life. The practices of yoga, meditation, dance and community singing are designed to re-establish trust in yourself and in your ability to connect to your source, develop inspired practices that uplift your energy and soothe your emotions, shift from reaction to response in all life situations and express your power confidently in the world. This retreat is about personal development and creating feelings of ease, nourishment, expansion and rootedness regardless of personal history or environment. There is a programme of activities each day beginning with a welcome dinner on the first evening. The retreat is hosted at two stunning venues. As a matter of interest singer and songwriter Michael Franti owns the Soulshine Retreat Centre. It is always great to see Bali tap into this form of tourism and attract people from other countries. This retreat will appeal if you want to focus on some personal development and meet like minded people.

You may have heard of the Sentosa resort in Petitenget in Seminyak but if you have not tried their Sunday family lunch yet, get on the phone and make a booking now! Salt tapas is an excellent restaurant open every day but since December 2013, they have concocted one of the best brunches for families in Bali.

Salt tapas is an extension of the existing “Salt” brand and it was created by Luke Mangan, one of Australia’s leading chefs and restaurateurs.

Their chef is Angus Harrison, also from Australia, and the restaurant manager is Rafel Nardo, a Brasilian who studied in Australia… no wonder then that the restaurant has a pleasing Australian twist.

The Sunday Family Lunch is offered from 11am to 4pm and it is advisable to book in advance. They have a 2 course menu for Rp 155.000++/adult and Rp 85.000++/child. Guests can choose from two formulas: a nibble + a main + a side dish or a main + a side dish + a dessert. They also offer a complimentary fruit juice and a 15-minute massage for adults. Kids can choose from fish & chips, spaghetti with tomato sauce, burger or hot dog with a drink but the best is yet to come for the dessert: unlimited churros with their chocolate sauce and light whipped cream!

This can’t be reversed if the ¿ller migrates about the different brands of ¿llers advertised and wondered and isn’t recommended by doctors for a ¿rst time. what’s the difference? I didn’t have a clue but was determined It’s not approved by the FDA in the USA. to ¿nd out.

I went to a few clinics to get my answers. All of the doctors gave me the same information about the products and how they are used. Most of the clinics offer the same products with prices approximately Rp. 3.5 million per ml. When asked what they would recommend for me I got different answers. The ¿rst doctor suggested I use ¿ller under my eyes, above the mouth and at the sides. Doctor Murino at Rejuvie said I didn’t need any. But Dr. Chandra at Arc said the only ¿ller I might consider was the smoker’s line above the mouth. Sometimes it’s advisable to get more than one opinion.

After looking carefully in the mirror I agreed with Dr. Chandra to have some filler above the mouth, which is called the smoker’s line. She applied some numbing cream to the area which would take about 15 minutes to take effect.

After this she suggested injecting lidocain just like a dentist, to totally numb the skin because this is a sensitive area.

Within minutes she was ready to inject the Teosyal ¿ller across the numb area. This only took a few minutes. The effect was immediate but she said that it would take up to two weeks for the full effect. Then I went home to apply ice to minimize the swelling and prevent bruising. A week later, it’s looking pretty good and no more ¿ne lines.

BOTOX The most popular aesthetic treatment globally used by millions of men and women from the age 35 is Botox. It’s a drug made from a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which is the same toxin that causes a type of food poisoning called botulism.

Quest for a Healthy Diet….

ParacelsusAsia

Is it Possible in Today’s Toxic World?

Bio-chemistry has long possessed many of the answers as to the causes, and how we may prevent and treat the chronic diseases that affect us. Why then do most of us, including most doctors, not know more about this? Why is so much of what we are told ineffective and contradictory? ParacelsusAsia attempts to shed some light...

We are what we eat – is a truism and the thing about a truism is that it is so true that we invariably ignore its truth.

– but that does not make the truth untrue… just invisible.

So having got that off my chest, let me go on to assert my belief that the basis of a healthy diet in this day and age is not to overeat - period, and by consuming organic, unre¿ned and naturally raised produce based mainly on animal and vegetable products together with good fats, keeping carbohydrates, legumes and dairy intake low while eschewing added sugar, almost totally. That should be easy since it allows us to eat pretty much everything, upon the proviso that it is real food, produced naturally.

PARADISE...

IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

SCOMBROID FOOD POISONING Likely cause of death - Noelene and Yvana So the verdict is out. Scombroid food poisoning most likely caused the deaths of Noelene and Yvana Bischoff, mother and daughter tourists from Australia who died suddenly in Bali in January 2014.

Scombroid food poisoning is a food borne illness that results from eating spoiled fish. Along with ciguatera, it is listed as a common type of seafood poisoning.

This type of poisoning is often missed because it resembles an allergic reaction. It is most commonly reported with mackerel, tuna, bluefish, mahi-mahi, bonito, sardines, anchovies, and related species of fish that were inadequately refrigerated or preserved after being caught.

The syndrome derived its name because early descriptions of the illness noted an association with Scombroidea fish (e.g. large dark meat marine tuna, albacore, mackerel); however, there are other, non-scombroid fish, such as mahi-mahi and amberjack that can cause this reaction.

Unlike many types of food poisoning, this form is not brought about by ingestion of a bacteria or virus (causing infection), it is caused by excess histamine in the fish.

Histidine exists naturally in many types of fish, and at temperatures above 16°C (60°F) on air contact it is converted to the more dangerous “histamine”.

Normal cooking temperatures do not destroy histamine, so even properly cooked fish can be affected. Histamine causes allergic reactions, so the symptoms produced are those one would expect to see in severe allergic responses.

Symptoms Symptoms of poisoning can show within just minutes, and up to two hours, following consumption of a spoiled dish.

Symptoms usually last for about 10 to 14 hours, and rarely exceed one to two days. People with asthma are more vulnerable to respiratory problems such as wheezing or spasm of the windpipes.

The first signs: • facial flushing/sweating • burning-peppery taste sensations in the mouth and throat

In the worst cases, the poisoning may cause: • blurred vision • respiratory stress • swelling of the tongue In rare cases, the poisoning may result in death.

Treatment If the reaction is severe then treatment at an emergency room or clinic may be warranted. The most effective treatment is self-administered oral antihistamine (antiallergy) medication. They are very effective, showing improvement within 10–15 minutes.

Examples of these are Claratyne (loratidine), Benadryl (diphenhydramine which is present in many cough medicines), or Zyrtec (cetrizine).

It is always wise to keep one of these in your medication cabinet or first aid kit, which you carry with you (car kits etc).

DVD

The Wolf Of Wall Street Coming in at just under three hours, this is a very long movie, but, it is so good that the time just whizzes by.

Martin Scorsese’s brilliant new movie follows the career of an ambitious young stockbroker, working in the greedy and corrupted environment of New York’s Wall Street during the late 1980s. The movie is an amazing mix of drama and comedy. It is extremely well made, and, it is highly entertaining. This is not the first time Leonardo Dicaprio has performed for Scorsese, but, it is by far his best performance for him. Dicaprio presents us with a humorous side, which we have never seen from him before. His handling of the comedic scenes is very assured, and, he also presents us with a very rounded and convincing character. This great movie has ‘instant classic’ written all over it, and, must not be missed.

All Is Lost* A yachtsman is undertaking a solo voyage, when he gets into difficulties in the middle of the Indian Ocean. That’s about it for plot, for, J.C. Chandor’s incredible movie has next to no dialogue in it, and, it is a fantastic example of visual story telling. As the lone sailor, with only two lines to deliver, Robert Redford gives an outstanding performance.

He depicts through facial expressions and body language the increasingly treacherous position he finds himself in.

With all the action contained to the yacht, J.C. Chandor also uses some extremely interesting camera work to maintain a high level of visual interest. This is an extremely impressive piece of inventive movie-making.

Grand Piano* Spanish director Eugenio Mira also presents us with an impressive piece of inventive movie-making, albeit of a different kind. After a disastrous concert five years ago, a neurotic pianist is about to attempt a comeback. However, when he takes to the stage and commences his piano concerto, he finds scrawled in his score the message: “Play one wrong note and you die”.

Meanwhile, the show must go on, and, the concert and the film continues in ‘real-time’, as the pianist, held in the sights of a sniper’s gun, frantically plays while trying to figure out how to get himself out of this predicament. The movie is absolutely riveting to watch. It is only afterwards that you realize that it is absolute rubbish. Never-the-less, extremely good rubbish.

Her More extremely good rubbish! After the breakup of a long love affair, a lonely and depressed writer shuns companionship, and prefers to just mope around his apartment playing interactive computer games. However, when he installs a new operating system on his computer, he finds that the female voice of the system is so understanding and sympathetic that, over time, he falls in love with it. This weird relationship gives him a different outlook on life. Set in Los Angeles in the near future, Spike Jonze presents an unusual love story, in which ‘method’ actor Joaquin Phoenix gives a really sensitive performance.

Scarlett Johansson uses her husky voice to spectacular effect.

Ender’s Game* In this terrific Sci-Fi movie, a young military cadet is promoted rapidly through the ranks, because it is felt that he has the makings of a brilliant commander, who can assist in the defeat of an invading alien species. But, the lad has many personal issues he must resolve, before he can take up his command. The special effects in the film are superb, still, this is another movie which will be more fun when available in 3D. The movie is aimed at adolescents, but, while watching, parents should also get a big kick out of it.

Last Vegas* When a seventy year old man is about to marry a woman less than half his age, he asks three old cronies of his to accompany him on a ‘Bachelors Weekend’ in Las Vegas.

Nothing much of any great importance happens, but, the movie is pleasant enough I suppose. Morgan Freeman, Kevin Kline, Michael Douglas, and Robert De Nero, all give nicely relaxed performances.

Kelly & Victor A Welshman takes up with a new girlfriend but quickly discovers that she has a peculiar sex drive, which involves a lot of Sado-Masochist frivolities.

Mark Rutkowski: Painter, Author

pattern for the rest of my career. That of making a series of paintings, putting them up for sale and going on vacation - the vacation part being part and parcel of the selling process.

What is your favorite medium?

Depends on the subject. Oil likes to blur, blend and glow, while watercolors make crisp dry edges, like fine sand on a shoreline. Right now I’m painting in oil but on my latest painting I moved to acrylics because I’ll have to ship it as soon as it’s done.

C/He/I-25 Dec 13

Do you make your living solely by your art?

Yes. For 35+ years. But I also sell prints of my work, so in a way I should also be considered a small business. Most successful artists are also small businessmen.

What inspired you take up writing?

I think it was practicing Zen that did it. All that space opening up in the mind allowed me to hear some poetry that was in there that I couldn’t hear before. I began to practice Zen after I had returned to Florida from Bali. I felt depressed. Maybe some of the expats know the feeling. I call it “return shock.” I had to get to the bottom of it so I started to practice meditation.

SAVE

Are you a published writer?

Mark Rutkowski was born in Ohio, USA in 1959. Growing up in a small farm town, he had a magical childhood spending all of his free time in the surrounding forests with his friends, catching frogs and snakes, making tree houses and creating fantasy worlds. Mark visited Bali for the first time in 1998 when he was invited by Rachael Barrett to be an Artist-in Residence at Gallery Blue Moon.

He had such an intriguing time that he stayed the whole year. Mark has a beachfront condo in South Beach, Florida where he normally spends half the year. He preevacuates during the summer hurricane season to Bali.

“Better to watch the hurricanes as satellite images from the other side of the planet,” he told me.

What’s your educational background?

MFA in art and Illustration. I quit my job drawing hands for owner’s manuals for Detroit cars in 1982. Since then I’ve sold my paintings to put food on the table and buy real estate and cars and such things.

When did you know that you had a talent for painting?

Talent. Strange word for me. I’ll just say I began to fall in love with the world one day. Seeing textures on rocks, rust stains on concrete, the glow of neon on a wall. I’m not the only artist that came alive from being enlightened by images like this. If I have any insight into talent, it is that the artist sees something that compels him to produce so many paintings that just by putting in the hours he becomes talented.

When did you start painting?

I started in earnest in art school. We were given so many projects that it was necessary to work very hard and to do more with the time we had. We learned our chops and we got good very fast. Not many students made it through the whole 4-5 year curriculum. Detroit was a great place to study and we weren’t dictated to by trends in New York, so there was a great freedom in thinking and creating.

Plus the city itself was nearly abandoned so whenever you needed, lets say, a Romanesque frame for a painting you just went “shopping” in the abandoned buildings.

Yes. Schiffer publishes my art books but I don’t have a literary publisher. I haven’t given that much of a try. I am a first time novelist so that makes me a lottery chance and the publishing industry is in flux right now. Independent publishing has made incredible strides and may be the way of the future. I understand that as much as reading manuscripts, publishers now glean the Internet for selfpublished authors who have sold up to 20,000 e-books to make contracts with.

What’s your book “In a Butterfly’s Dream” about?

It’s about recovering from losing people you love. It’s about survivors and the strange psychological turmoil they endure. It’s about how people find themselves in someone else’s, a “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” story with a knowing wink to Conrad’s “The Secret Sharer,” all the while set in the magic-realist, reincarnative soil of Bali, “temporary at best and sweet while it lasted.”

Were characters from the book drawn from real-life people?

Yes and no. Most of the actors are composites of people or have some characteristic of a person I know that I found interesting and I downloaded into the character.

What advice can you give to a beginning writer of fiction?

I was at a talk with Ann Rice when someone asked her that classic question: “I’ve written 1,000,000,000 words and am still not published. What advice can you give me?” She quickly replied, “There are millions of people who can write a best selling novel and they’re not doing it.” The questioner looked puzzled so she went on, “You are the only one living your life and you are the scholar of that life. Write that book first.” I might also add what I tell people when they ask the same question about art. Begin by having a room where the only activity in that room is writing and spend a set amount of time there. Even if sometimes you get just a little done, continue to go there everyday and work.

It was a beautifully rendered photorealist watercolor of a hamburger stand. It sold at the art school’s senior exhibition. I had gone to relax in Florida after graduating and returned to learn that the painting had sold for $300.

That felt like a lot of money at the time and it started a

DEALING WITH DENGUE

It’s dengue fever season again and the virus is hitting Bali hard. Although research indicates that dengue moves in a five year cycle with peaks and troughs, this year seems to be bucking the trend -- we had a bad dengue year last year and 2014 is shaping up to be another one. More cheerful news... there’s no mainstream medical vaccination against dengue fever, and no treatment for the disease once it’s established.

But there are alternative therapies available in Bali. Homeopathic and plant remedies can be very effective, especially if taken early in the infection.

Homeopathic and plant remedies can be very effective, especially if taken early in the infection.

Dengue is a fairly new disease for Indonesia, with the first cases being recognized in Java in the 1960s. According to the Centre for Disease Control about 2.5 billion people, or 40% of the world’s population, live in areas of dengue transmission: Africa, Asia, the Pacific, the Caribbean and the Americas. The World Health Organization estimates that between 50 and 100 million cases occur every year, with about 500,000 of the more dangerous dengue hemorrhagic fever cases and 22,000 deaths, mostly children. Worldwide, dengue is the fastest spreading vector-borne disease.

substances to trigger the body’s natural immune system of healing. Based on specific symptoms, a homeopath will match the most appropriate remedy to each patient. Homeopathy has been practiced for over 200 years and is covered by national medical insurance in some European countries.

“A homeopathic nosode delivers the pathogen differently from a vaccine,” Tjok De explained. “It is prepared from an extremely diluted disease product to a point where there is virtually no pathogen left, just energetic signature/ information/ cell memory carried in the vehicle of the liquid which the body recognizes; it may create antibodies or increase the body’s resistance to that particular disease.” He offers this tincture to his patients both to prevent and treat dengue, with good results. (I’m taking it myself, these days; my riverbank is heaving with mosquitoes this rainy season.)

Contact him at tjokmahatma@hotmail.com

Preparation and Dosage: the papaya leaves (of any variety) should be well washed, crushed with a mortar and then squeezed through a clean, damp cloth to extract the juice or blenderised with a little water. Only the leaf material is used, not the leaf spines or sap. The extract should be consumed fresh and raw (without adding water, salt or sugar) at a dose of 10 - 15 ml twice a day for adults and 5 - 10 ml for children between the ages of five and 12. It is very bitter (as all effective medicinal herbs seem to be)!

Homeopathy I interviewed Tjokorda Gede Kerthyasa, an Australian-trained homeopath who has studied dengue fever intensively for over three years. Tjok De has had excellent results preventing and treating dengue with homeopathic remedies, and agrees that some herbal remedies are also very effective.

There are two specific blood tests for dengue fever. The most accurate is the NS1 test which is only available in Prodia Lab; it can detect dengue on the first day of infection. The traditional IGM or Antigen test won’t get a positive reading until day four or five. Dengue can often be diagnosed by an experienced practitioner from a full blood count along with an observation of symptoms.

“There’s no classic profile for dengue fever because there are so many variables. It’s important to try to move yourself to get a blood test right away if you think you have the symptoms,” says Tjok De. “If you’re feeling really low, Prodia Labs will send a technician to your house and take the blood.”

Call 0361 261001 (0361 7807801 in Ubud) for this mobile service.

Tjok De has based some of his treatment on research from Cuba, where the government uses homeopathic remedies prophylactically based on 20 years of research by Australian Isaac Golden. A trial of over one million people using a very cheap homeopathic vaccine (nosode) reduced the incidence of leptospirosis by over 80 per. The Cuban government also makes homeopathic nosodes for hepataitis and dengue fever.

Tjok De uses a dengue fever nosode, a homeopathic preparation of the dengue virus which can be taken to prevent infection.

For those not familiar with homeopathy, very simply it’s a system of medicine that treats the patient with highly diluted

In the pilot study, 24 dengue fever patients consented to participate in the research. Twelve patients were given the papaya leaf extract and twelve controls were not given the juice. “It was significant to observe that the platelet count increased in all twelve patients after two doses of papaya leaf juice; they all recovered without needing to go to hospital.”

Dr Hettige’s latest research on randomised controlled clinical trials of over 70 dengue patients (including children) has found that all patients who consumed papaya leaf extract recovered fully within two days without requiring hospital admission. The results are highly significant when compared with the control group who did not consume papaya leaf extract. According to Dr Hettige, the leaf extract increases the white blood cells and blood platelets and normalises the clotting profile which are major aspects of the disease. The extract also helps repair the damage caused to liver cells by dengue fever. The hard science is at www.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2013/616737

Remember that the earlier you start taking your chosen remedy, the more effective it will be.

That’s the bad news. The good news is growing in your garden.

“Dengue is a virus which is constantly mutating and has a wide range of symptoms. It’s a very elusive, adaptive, chameleon type of virus. Research on dengue in Indonesia is very poor, and the virus changes every season,” he explained. “The disease seems to go through three distinct phases. It usually hits hard at first, so during the first stage the patient is very apathetic and lethargic with debilitating headaches and variable fever. The headache is characteristically at the back of the head and behind the temples and eyes There may be nausea, vomiting or diarrhea at this stage, which could last between two and four days. If the virus is treated at this stage there’s a much better chance of managing it, but people tend to hibernate instead of seeking help when they feel so ill. In the second stage there are usually muscle or joint pains which gave the disease the name ‘break bone fever’. There may be lack of appetite, nausea and debilitation.”

When the man rapidly recovered, he decided to try it on other patients.

Extensive research has been done on the three remedies described here, but even if they do attract the attention of Big Pharma it will be many years before they’ll appear on your pharmacy shelf. None of them have any side effects (except perhaps some nausea with the papaya leaf juice). The side effect of not taking a remedy, however, can mean a much longer recovery time. Remember that the earlier you start taking your chosen remedy, the more effective it will be. And no matter how dreadful you feel in the first few days, make sure someone knows you are sick and is checking on you.

Temu Kunci/Bosenbergia Rotunda A few years ago I learned of a natural plant remedy from ethnobotanist Dale Millard, who swears by a root called temu kunci (Bosenbergia rotunda). How does it work? “In simple terms, the dengue fever virus penetrates the cell nucleus and reprograms the nucleus to replicate the virus,” he told me.

“The nucleus then bursts the cell membrane and releases the virus into the bloodstream (phagocytosis). The flavanoids in the temu kunci root inhibit re-entry of the viruses into new cells. Clinical research shows that the flavanols found in Bosenbergia rotunda have low toxicity and a strong inhibitory effect against the dengue virus.” The hard science is at hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2012/473637.pdf Ibu Ni Wayan Lilir, a traditional Balinese herbalist, agrees that temu kunci is a potent weapon against dengue fever. “No traditional remedies existed for dengue fever in Bali because it’s a new disease here. When I was a child it was unheard of,” she told me. Ibu Lilir grows temu kunci plants and sells them for cultivation in home gardens. “Every household should have one,” she advises. Contact Ibu Lilir at nadisherbal@yahoo.com to start one in your garden.

To use temu kunci in early stage dengue, scrub about 300 grams of the fresh root and put through the juicer or blender, or smash it finely in a mortar with a little water. Make up to 1 litre with room temperature water (sweeten with honey) and take three times a day in 250 ml doses. Do not heat.

Papaya Leaves Dr Sanath Hettige of Sri Lanka was prompted to search for a dengue fever remedy when his wife, a Senior Medical Officer at the Intensive Care Unit of Sri Jayewardenepura Hospital, expressed helplessness at the many deaths from dengue she saw on her ward. He came across an internet post which recommended the use of papaya leaf juice for dengue fever.

A labourer working on his land contracted dengue soon afterward and Dr Hettige tested it on him with his permission.

Because dengue is so hard on the kidneys and the liver, Tjok De suggests that any medicine, even panadol, will actually prolong the illness. Aspirin and ibuprophin are especially contraindicated as they thin the blood.

Our vulnerability to illness, including dengue, is closely related to our immune systems. About eighty percent of us in Bali have been exposed to dengue, but of those only about ten percent become symptomatic; of those, very few will get really sick. Most people who get dengue report dealing with some stress or trauma in the previous week.

So stay centred and manage your stress. May you be well.

Tablets vs. laptops

Ok, so your laptop is getting a little old: Should you buy a new laptop or make your friends jealous and try out one of these new tablet computers?

C/CI/G-29 May 13

Well, it all depends on what you want to do with it.

It’s still the case that laptops and smaller netbook computers are tuned for production — word processing, e-mailing, number-crunching, more complicated tasks that often require a lot of text and switching among several windows running different applications at the same time.

Tablets, lacking a mouse or DVD drive, are better for tasks that have simpler tactile and visual elements — like paging through a photo gallery, checking online news or blogs, or reading a digital magazine or sending short emails. In other words, they work better for consumption, and thus can stay on for quite a few hours on one charge.

ENHANCE & PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS IN SOCIAL MEDIA

For social media addicts, tablets will be excellent for browsing through Facebook for the latest photos or links that friends have posted, or checking out Twitter to see what the digital world brain is buzzing about at that moment.

The iPad in particular has become a hit for casual gaming. Video games like Angry Birds, in which the player tries to knock down rickety structures by shooting birds at them with a large slingshot, can be played with a single fingertip. No complicated controllers required.

When it comes to more serious applications, though, tablets are likely to lag behind netbooks and laptops for the foreseeable future: The devices are not yet sophisticated enough to seamlessly run multiple programs at once or to allow users to find and install the endless variety of software now available for PCs. There is a thriving community of iPad “app” developers — the device has close to 40,000+ small programs created for it, by some counts. But no such group yet exists for tablets running on Google’s Android operating system, which will constitute most of the new offerings in coming months.

Kindle Fire Vs Nexus 7 Vs iPad Mini 2 The $399 iPad Mini 2’s Retina display is its claim to fame. In many tests, it proves to be the highest-resolution, most responsive touch-screen available in any form, with a breathtaking 2048 x 1536 pixels of resolution (326ppi).

However, the Retina also has the narrowest color range of the trio discussed here, and the highest mirror reflection ratio and lowest brightness/contrast characteristics; the latter traits mean the iPad Mini will be the hardest tablet to read under direct sunlight.

The Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HDX have identical price tags ($229) and nearly identical displays with 1920x1200 (323 ppi) resolution, and employ display technology that delivers 100 percent color gamut exceeding the color quality of many HD TVs and monitors. Translation, all three have superb displays, but the Nexus and HDX will do better under sunny skies.

Which One Should You Buy?

C/CI/G-4 Sept. 13

All of these tablets want to lock you into their “ecosystem” of apps, hardware, and services. Apple wants you to buy apps and music from iTunes, and their product line from iPod all the way to desktop Macs are nicely integrated. The commerce-oriented Kindle Fire is basically Amazon’s mobile kiosk intended to woo you into buying ebooks and tangible goods from Amazon.

The Nexus 7 is a more of a general-purpose tablet, and the open-source nature of Android appeals to users who don’t want to be locked into Apple’s proprietary world. But of course, Google will nudge you to their Play Store for music, app and video purchases.

When you get right down to it, the tech features are becoming less relevant as every tablet becomes “good enough” for web browsing, email, games, music, ebooks and video. The Kindle Fire HDX, the Nexus 7 and the iPad Mini all have awesome displays, fast processors, and long battery life. They’re all fairly easy to use, and have tons of apps available.

C/CI/I-06 March 13

They each have their strengths, and some minor drawbacks, mentioned above. One of the biggest differences is price, where Apple is asking $399 for the Mini, as compared to $229 for either the HDX or the Nexus. It is really worth an extra $170? Comparing the upgraded 32GB models with 4G/LTE, the price differences are more dramatic. Nexus 32GB 4G/ LTE ($349), Fire HDX 32GB 4G/LTE ($384), iPad Mini 32GB 4G/LTE ($629). Would you pay a $280 premium for that Apple logo now?

Win8 to look like the ‘old’ windows HINT: So you purchased a new computer and it came with Win 8. But it’s driving you nuts already. Where’s my Start button?

If you want all the advantages of Win 8 but you still want the look and feel of your previous OS, install the free Win8 StartButton (http://www.windows8startbutton.com/) software, you can eliminate most of the Windows 8 annoyances in one step. Win8 StartButton will make the familiar Desktop your default Windows startup screen, bypassing the Modern UI. And as the name suggests, it also restores the missing Windows Start button, the Start menu, and other familiar menus and options. Win8 StartButton also comes with Media Player Classic, which has the ability to play DVDs, a feature that Microsoft removed from their Media Player. ============================================================================================ Have a question or problem?

ARDEN DOCTOR

by The Garden Doctor

Tillandsia(also known as air plants) are epiphytic plants of the bromeliad family that grow without the need for soil. They are commonly found growing on a host plant, dead branches, rock faces, cliffs or any other surface that they can attach to. (They are not parasitic, using the host only for support.) They will even grow hanging in mid-air! Grown hanging from a piece of ¿shing line or string they will eventually form spheres, and look spectacular. Air plants obtain water and nutrients through their leaves, not their roots, so they can be attached to almost anything. Naturally Tillandsia will grow in a wide variety of environments, from tropical forests to dry deserts. When utilised as plants in the home they are one of the easier plants to grow indoors, but will still require care.

Many people who hear about Tillandsia are told myths about how easy they are to care for. Statements such as “They don’t require water, they live on air!” or “Just mist lightly once a month!” are incorrect. While they don’t grow in soil Tillandsia will need water and a suitable growing environment. They live in air, not on air. While the plants can survive for long periods of drought, they will not grow or thrive and will eventually die off.

Air plants can grow almost anywhere, except in soil or potting mix. All water and nutrients are taken through the leaves, and their roots are used as anchors for attaching to a support. If they are planted in soil they are certain to rot and die. If you want it in a pot then you need to add some weight to stop it falling over, use gravel, pebbles or any other medium that drains rapidly, and doesn’t hold water. If your plant is placed in anything that retains moisture and doesn’t dry out immediately it will rot and die.

Most are happiest when mounted on structures, such as trees, walls or tree fern bark. Tillandsia obtain the majority of their moisture from the air so they ideally like a humid environment.

If growing indoors the bathroom would be an ideal spot. A deep soaking a few times per week and misting every other day is usually enough to meet their requirements. During the wet season in Bali or other tropics, you may not need to water them at all if outside! If your air plant is mounted to a removable board you can also soak the entire plant overnight in a bucket of water or pond. Make sure that you let your plant dry out completely in-between watering, and do not soak the Àowers while they are blooming.

Thicker leafed species that are grey in color are naturally desert dwellers and will tolerate drier conditions when compared to the thinner leafed green species, which originate from the tropics.

After suf¿cient watering, the leaves will feel stiff. When the plant is dehydrated the leaves will wilt and soften. Trim dried or injured leaves carefully. Do not try to pull damaged leaves, as you will damage the healthy part of the plant.

Growing Plants in the Air

‘Dear Dr. Kris, I am interested in growing some air plants as I have heard that they are low maintenance easy to grow plants, especially inside. Is it true that they will survive on just air alone, and do not require watering? Can they be easily grown indoors mounted like orchids? Do you have any other advice for growing them successfully. Thanking you in advance, Johanas’

Tillandsia will also need the correct light requirements to Àourish.

Desert dwellers need more light and are best grown outdoors in a partial shade position, more than a few hours of hot sun will deplete the plants of their moisture. On the other hand, the tropical species will prefer full shade, or a bright indoor room.

Fluorescent lights can provide enough light, which makes them perfect plants for indoor areas. The color and growth rate are good indications of whether it is receiving the right amount of light exposure. Dull colors and slow growth are indications that the plant needs more light, while brown spotted leaves are a sign of too much.

Hanging Tillandsia. If you buy them loose then you can decide where to put them. Pieces of old driftwood are a popular choice, (if you choose this you will need to soak the wood thoroughly to leach out the salt). The mount can literally be anything as long as the surface is not copper or prone to rust, as this could kill the plant. A simple but effective option is to simply hang it from a string or piece of wire, from which the plant will form attractive spheres. To mount the plant to an object, tie it on with a piece of ¿shing line around the base of plant. The line can later be cut once the plant has a good hold. Other mounting materials to be used include wire, glue, nails, old stockings, staples, plastic mesh, or cable ties. When using nails, staples, or wire, take care not go through the growing parts of the plant.

Tillandsia will produce Àowers, though they are primarily grown for their showy foliage and adaptability in vertical garden arrangements. No special effort is required for them to Àower, and they can produce tubular bright Àowers on a small inÀorescence growing from the center of the plant. While they do produce seeds, the most effective method of propagation is by offsets or ‘pups.’ After Àowering has ¿nished, new plants will form around the base of the ‘parent’ plant. If you want to divide the offsets, wait until they are approximately half the size of the parent plant and trim them as close to the base of the parent as possible. These can now be grown separately.

C/Ho/G-27 Nov. 13

Water quality is a ¿nal factor to consider. Well water(if not salty) or rain water work best. When you use well, or rain water, they will not require extra fertilisation. However, a water soluble fertiliser can increase the number of offsets and speed up growth. Always use a low nitrogen fertilizer. My recommendation is to use liquid seaweed fertiliser at ¼ of the recommended dose. Tillandsia can be easy to grow if you follow the basic care and propagation guidelines. They can literally be grown on any structure, brick walls, rocks, coral, shells, cactus, pots, driftwood, around water features, old tree stumps, indoors or outdoors.

You are only limited to the extent of your own imagination!

Lychee Wood / Kayu Klengkeng (for Flooring/Furniture/Interior) 10cm-30cm x 3.5cm x 1m-2.5m, ± 50 Cu.Mtr

What’s Latin for “I haven’t got a Clue what you’re talking about?”

First a follow up. A couple of weeks ago I wrote of Liligundi and its use for keeping mosquitoes away to avoid dengue fever and chikungunya. You may (or, for that matter, you might not) be interested to hear of an email I received from some wonderful people who like to sit out on their verandah and enjoy their evenings.

“We built our house on an ocean side block and insect proofed the structures by fly screening all external doors, ventilation openings and windows. Doors were further enhanced by storm or draught stopper brush strips.

We planted a hedgerow of Liligundi on the ocean side of the block as well as some random bushes on the northern side. We eat all our meals on the terrace so that we can enjoy the sea view and breezes in a mosquito free environment. The Terrace is not insect-proofed, and relies on the Liligundi. An overhead fan above the dining table wafts away any stray flies.

Our Liligundi experience is an adequate proof of the effectiveness of this plant.

An interesting sidenote is that the use of the effective screening of the dwelling has ensured that the house is not a home for the cicak and togay lizards so there are no messy walls or risk of being bombed while sleeping.

Occasionally a very young one will sneak in because of in improperly closed door, but is lucky to last 3 days due to lack of food…….”

I have also had several requests from people wanting to buy Liligundi. I could tell you the latin name (Vitex Trifolia) but I won’t bother, the average Balinese gardener only has a rudimentary knowledge of latin. You may well find that many gardening shops won’t have a clue what you are talking about but if you persevere you will manage find some. I bought 2 shrubs in Renon recently from the first nursery I tried.

Liligundi grows as a shrub or small tree with leaves that are about 3 cms long and 1.5 cms wide. The leaves are green on the upper surface but more of a greyish green on their underside. Flowers are small and blue. Liligundi has quite a strong though not unpleasant fragrance rather like citronella. As a mosquito repellant Liligundi is a natural solution, low cost, low maintenance and (by all accounts) very effective.

Liligundi may be very useful for restaurants, hotels and villas with mosquito problems.

It is mindboggling to think of how such tiny creatures as mosquitoes can have such a huge impact on the billions of people that live on our planet. Come to think about it have you ever pondered just how big the universe is? It’s simply mindbogglingly gihumungous isn’t it? We imagine the blackness of space and stars that go on and on forever but the idea of forever is not easy to grasp. We always think of there being an ending somehow don’t we. If we consider the concept of scale could it be that our stars and everything we know are, in fact, merely atoms in some much larger universe or perhaps specks of dirt floating around in the internal orifices of some humungous flatulent beast.

We are talking about immensity to the extent of limitlessness, infiniteness and this is precisely how many different colours there are in the spectrum. Did you know that there are more different colours in the spectrum than there are cars in a Jakarta traffic jam, even more than there are real estate agents in Bali.

In fact there are so many different colours than we can possibly imagine. Bearing this in mind we have to wonder just how easy it is to match paint colours. Matching paint colours is, in fact, impossible. Every single batch of paint manufactured is a different colour.

Until fairly recently we were limited to using the ready mixed colours of canned paint made available by the paint companies who, rather like the ceramic tile manufacturers had a tendency to change their range more often than they cut their toenails. It was an ever repeating story. You would find a wonderful colour for your living room but then just when you had finished three quarters of the job and needed an extra can to finish it off you found that that particular colour was “kosong” never to be seen again.

There was also a strange industry culture of secrecy

regarding colours. This strange phenomenon is not just limited to paint manufacturers. The Commonwealth bank has a particular colour of yellow as part of its corporate identity and is trademarked. I can see some smart corporate designer getting an idea as he was changing his baby’s nappy that made him a fortune. The details of paint colours used on Vespa scooters also appear to be a well guarded secrets.

Times are changing for the better.

Paint is, of course, coloured by mixing colour tints into the paint. These days the better paint manufacturers, most notably Dulux, are offering services that mix paint to order.

They have extensive colour sample cards (the Dulux colour fanbook has over 2,000 colours in it) and tinting equipment that, theoretically speaking, can produce any colour you want as long as you know the tinting recipe indicating the proportion of each colour tint to be added. This means that even colours that are not in their present standard range can be made up as long as you know the formula.

But hold on a moment, before you start dribbling with excitement just remember that trying to match the existing paint on walls is more difficult than getting a straight answer out of a politician’s dead cat.

C/BM/G-19 Feb. 14

The tints themselves will vary slightly, the consistency of the paint will vary, slight differences such as temperature and humidity will all play their part resulting in variations in the paint colour to say nothing of the absorption of the surface we are painting. Also, as many people have found out, you might find that a small sample may look like the original but when you get it onto a large wall the slightest variation will stand out like Barbra Streisand’s nasal appendage in a Javanese football crowd.

But then as soon as we apply paint it starts to change. It may fade with exposure to sunlight, it may get dirty or the paint tints may change with age.

C/BM/M-11 Dec .13

I could go on but I won’t, the dead cat’s not listening.

So we find a paint colour that we really like and we think we would like to keep that colour for a while, we might want to use it in that new extension or we know that when that troublesome nephew comes to stay he’ll get himself totally plastered and end up emptying his stomach down your brand new bedroom wall.

What can we do?

The first thing we can do is keep some tins of paint aside, make sure it is from the original batch you used. Put it in the roofspace or some other out of the way place from which it can be retrieved later but where the gardener isn’t going to find it when looking for something to spruce up the garage.

Keep the details of the manufacturers and colours of the paint that you use in your home. You need to take care because local painters who may have learned their extensive painting skills selling nodding dogs at the traffic lights have a tendency to mix water into paint (it makes the paint go further you see) or to substitute cheaper brands or at least mix some cheaper paint in with the expensive stuff.

In these cases the paint colours will not match.

Finally and most importantly do not attempt to “patch paint”.

You should paint a whole wall or ceiling at a time. You might be able to paint some walls in a room and not others. While the colour of the existing paint on one wall is right up against new paint applied to another wall you will often find that light will fall differently on the two walls so if you paint into a corner with a very similar colour of paint you can often get away with it. It is often better to not try and match the paint and use a different but complementary colour on different walls.

A smart dress shop knows that a woman needs a complete wardrobe and goes out of its way to offer advice and products and services that supply that integrated wardrobe (“This goes with that, at Suzanne” was a popular Australian jingle.) You thus ensuring multiple visits and additional opportunities to companion sell – but more importantly to help that customer get the complete job done more perfectly. A happy Heidi showers her friends with glowing referrals.

Staff and merchandising in these job-focused retail outlets are (or should be) aimed at helping Heidi understand the options and the relative benefits for each outcome in helping her get her job done. This is really critical - as more purchases move online your in-shop customer experience and conversion needs to be ever sharper. And related items for a particular job are located next to each other. So what if that means a multi-use item is located in five different areas of your shop - are you into tidy layouts or improving profits?

Functional Types of Jobs are Easy to Catalog Jobs to be done include functional jobs, emotional jobs and social jobs. You could catalog your products by all three of these jobs. If I’m selling brooms then it is quite easy to produce a catalog based on functional jobs to be done. You can talk about brooms for sweeping smooth surfaces and brooms for sweeping paths or rugs. You can talk about desired outcomes such as width of sweep, access to corners, smooth handle grips, slope of handle and so on.

Same with fry pans – I can see a catalog of frypans by the types of jobs to be done – steak griddles, omelettes, pancakes, stir-fry. Just look at how marketing of toothbrushes has changed over the past few years.

Once upon a time I just bought a toothbrush with soft bristles and maybe a colour handle of my choice. Now I have options such as the thickness of the bristle (improved outcome of cleaning between teeth); different bristle angles (improved outcome of better cleaning); a bent handle (for better internal reach); a serrated handle (for better grip) and a rough back (associated job of cleaning tongue.) They are advertised on these outcomes.

Will I, do I pay more for better outcomes? You bet I do.

Despite the huge price difference I would never go back to a disposable single blade razor from my Mach 3, because the Mach 3 gives me a near perfect set of outcomes in getting my shaving job done.

Non-Functional Catalogs Could be Fun Functional catalogs are relatively straight forward. But for emotional and social jobs, can you really be so straight-forward in practice? Take the cosmetics industry as an example. Many people in the biz talk about this as the marketing of Hope. Sure there are all sorts of functional catalogs, but the personal and social jobs and related outcomes are far more subtly catalogued or not at all.

NC/BM/U-3 April. 13

But when I look at product catalogs from these clients they don’t reflect these jobs, their catalogs are nearly all product-oriented. You can look up their offerings by type (eg rings or bracelets) or by collections. But very few have any reference to a job to be done, be it functional, emotional or social. In the jewellery business the few exceptions I can find mostly come down to Lurv.

There are special sections for engagement rings, wedding rings and shared love lockets, and these are recognised as legitimately spoken-about jobs for a piece of jewelery.

But we have to be careful that we don’t become crass and catalog other desired outcomes from jobs to be done – for example, adornment for the purpose of accentuating desirable mating features: earrings for erogenous ears, brooches and pendants for heaving bosoms, anklets for a pretty pair of feet, or necklaces to offset a delicate neck.

(Let’s skip over body piercing for the moment.)

Cataloging social demonstrations of wealth are equally tricky – sections of pieces that declare “I’m a really rich bitch” or “I’m an up-and-coming rich bitch” or “I couldn’t care less and love bling.” You are probably on much safer ground if you are working with jewellery pieces that are more designed to work as an accessory, to complete an outfit or a look. Can you categorise the metal and stones, skins and fabrics in terms of their effectiveness in accenting skins colours, skin textures and hair colours? On how they accent or diminish ear shapes or thickness of fingers? Oops! There we go again!

Researching Required Outcomes is Key It intrigues me (professionally of course) how women learn what works and what doesn’t with jewellery? Definitely secret women’s business. Is it passed on from mother to daughter? From peers? From stupid, hopefully never-repeated mistakes? Is it something to do with women being so good at detecting subtle signals (gagging, appreciation, desire, lust, etc) that they are quick studies in learning what works and what doesn’t, for them.

If a yoga clothing shop is into helping its customers get the job done it doesn’t just sell tight pants and tops.

There’s the yoga mat, the mat spay to kill germs, the mala beads, the educational and aspirational books and videos, posters, the whole range of after class wear, the adornment jewellery, hair systems, and so on.

You can see the significant opportunity here for sales and profit increases – as you focus more on the job, you can see more and more options to expand your brand into other related categories.

What jobs do women require from wearing jewellery?

What outcomes are women looking for? The typical answers they put forward include: • because they make me feel good • a symbol of how I am feeling • just because I WANT TO • to complete an outfit • display social status • an appreciation for art • beautify my body • assert my style • because it’s fashionable • for sentimental reasons – reminds me of someone special, or a special occasion.

Being Job-Focused Will Increase Sales and Profits I think I mentioned many issues ago about the plant nursery that said it didn’t sell plants, it sold holes. Not only the plant but the spade to dig the hole, fertiliser, the support stake, the watering system, the guide book, the weeding tools, the kneeling mat, the gardening gloves, the sun hat. In other words it catered to the complete job to be done. A design aid to plan the whole garden so you can identify many, many needed holes that will need repeat visits. Plus a companion sale of the seeds for the must-have vegetable and herb garden to be done next week, maybe...

I have a number of clients in the jewellery business, and it raises some interesting questions about how to advertise their products in the retail market.

Is your business catalog product-oriented or serviceoriented? Are you just selling products or are you helping people know how you can help them get their jobs done with perfect outcomes?

Subak: Bedrock of the Balinese Community The cultivation of rice, the cooking of rice, the safeguarding of rice and the honoring of the forces that are responsible for rice dominate the life of the Balinese. Rice is the central dish of every meal and dictates the richly layered lifestyle, culture and religion of the island.

Tropical grasslands are nutritionally poor for raising cattle, which are also vulnerable to a wide range of diseases that make the animals sick. Raising animals is a poor option compared to rice growing because rice can sustain a higher population density than livestock. One hectare of rice and other food crops can produce around 10 million calories but if used for daily pasture the same amount of land would deliver only 1.7 million calories. Balinese farmers instead convert the food that the animal would eat directly into sustenance.

The subak is a communal association consisting of growers, tenants and sharecroppers who work adjacent rice field holdings. In existence in Bali since at least A.D. 896, when the earliest written records were recorded on lontar palm manuscripts, there are today around 1,500 subak, each with several hundred members and each covering a different slice of the island’s pie-shaped watersheds.

The subak system is among the 26 new sites inscribed on UNESCO World Heritage List in 2012. These irrigation cooperatives are entirely necessary because of Bali’s climate and mountainous terrain. The island’s long well defined dry season from April to October leaves the farmer no choice but to irrigate, even though Bali’s mountainous nature makes it very difficult. Bali is extremely volcanic; its soft mountain rock lacerated by the 162 rivers and streams that cut deep valleys and gorges.

Water is crucial in the growing of rice. The only way to organize the distribution of water fairly is to link all rice growing communities into an elaborate social system controlled by community water management and irrigation organizations. Since a farmer is unable to build and maintain elaborate irrigation works alone, only through cooperation with neighbors have the Balinese become famed as Indonesia’s most efficient rice-growers.

The entire system is intensely collaborative, both in coordinating planting and allocating water to avoid, for example, upstream–downstream conflicts. Since an upstream farmer has a distinct physical advantage over a downstream farmer, he has no incentive to release water in a cooperative way for his downhill neighbor. The subak sees that he does.

Since the island’s terrain makes the irrigation dams and wide channels impossible, water is carried from field to field by an elaborate system of bamboo pipes, aqueducts, canals, culverts and temporary weirs. Water needs high on the ridges sometimes require tunnels 2-3 km long cut through solid rock hillsides, some dug 8-9 centuries ago.

Acting as a sort of local civil engineering “water board,” the intra-village subak’s main function is to control not only the distribution of irrigation water but also to organize joint work projects such as building and maintaining small dams, canals, tunnels, aqueducts and water locks. Another advantage of coordinating rice planting over an entire watershed is that it helps to control pests by creating a wide, dry fallow area, an insect firebreak.

Tightly bound by custom and religion, its spiritual prerogatives

watched over by priests and water temples, all subak must abide by more or less the same rules of written law (awig-awig).

Each member is allotted work in proportion to the amount of water he receives; a pekaseh arbitrates any disputes. All government programs to improve rice production are channeled through the subak by a staff of field agents who live right in the main rice-growing areas.

Though the subak works quite independently of local government agencies, with almost all attempts by the authorities to use subak for their own purposes, occasionally these homegrown community water boards will buckle under to policies adopted by the central government. In 1994, after the government rezoned the land around Tanah Lot to clear the area of rice fields, the regency cut off all water supplies to the local subak. The villagers were eventually forced to relocate to make way for the massive 121-hectare Nirwana Resort. Even a venerable social institution like the subak subordinates itself to the imperatives of tourist development.

The Subak Museum Turning off the busy intersection on the main road, the steep climb up to Tabanan’s famed Subak Museum was rubbly and pockmarked, but suddenly emerged into the quiet of the countryside with a sense of being far from the noisy rushing city as the road ran under shady leafy trees. Spread out on bucolic 4 hectare plot of land in Sanggulan, a suburb east of Tabanan City, the indoor-outdoor museum consists of a huge exhibition hall, an audio-visual room, a Balinese traditional compound (now in a state of sad dishevelment), and one-hectare of rice fields.

Though maintaining this substantial complex of buildings and staff is obviously losing the regional and local government money, it’s a credit to the powers that be that they are giving this important teaching facility support. Perhaps they feel that the museum is a metaphor for the subak system itself? If the museum dies, so dies the subak system?

Opened in 1981, the complex is well maintained with many of its artifacts even predating its founding. There were no visitors on a recent Friday morning. In 2012, the last year in which there are records, only 1,297 foreign and 3,102 domestic visitors visited, the majority school children.

It’s no accident that a museum dedicated to subak is located in Tabanan, the 840-sq-km “rice granary of Bali.” The museum is the only one on Bali that provides information on the history and methods of rice cultivation and the organization and infrastructure of Bali’s irrigation and rice field cultivation.

A sign pointed to a small building in a garden at the top of a series of steps. Ibu Ni Ketut Ruminiasih saw me approaching out the window and greeted me at the door of the office. At the ticket desk I met the other women who made up the small and friendly staff, all natives of Sangullan.

Ibu Ketut led me to the huge exhibit hall a short walk to the south beside a lily pad covered pond. Walking inside this mammoth building, the Balinese rice goddess Dewi Sri greets the visitor.

Exhibits include more than 250 traditional farming tools used in rice cultivation since ancient times, a number of them of great archival value.

While the use of some items– like ani-ani rice cutters concealed in the hand - have long fallen out of general use, today’s rice farmers still use many of the same tools in the exhibit. The bi-lingual signage and documentation is above

average for an Indonesian ethnology museum.

Ancient lontar palm leaf manuscripts, dating from the 11th century, record growing methods and refer to still existing irrigation systems. Specific guidelines are given on how, for example, to construct a dam. Other tools include old plows, diggers and graders drawn by one or two oxen, primitive construction tools such as levels to aid in the building of irrigation tunnels and measuring tools to differentiate between two different points on the surface of the land.

The tika calendar, which once played a central role in all rice growing activities, were carved on wood or painted on cloth. The cryptic looking symbols drawn in a grid or wheel pattern enabled the farmer to choose auspicious days for planting and when to carry out other rice cultivation chores.

A map indicates all the main rice growing areas of Bali. Color and vintage black and white photographs capture all manner of agricultural practices as well as century-old rituals and ceremonies carried out at one of the island’s mountain lakeside water temples to give thanks for the source of irrigation water or by the sea to pray for protection against of new rice plantings.

Further up the road 350 meters on the left is a Balinese traditional walled house compound, a near replica to a smallscale model in the exhibit hall. Now closed for repairs, I stood on my toes to peer inside and saw a number of open-air pavilions (bale), each serving a distinct purpose for sleeping, working, cooking, plus the family temple and enclosures for pigs, cows and other domesticated animals. In the middle of the compound stood a well-preserved alang-roofed lumbung (rice granary). The tiny household, now bereft of any life or activity, had a forlorn air.

Restaurant Review

By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com

A Touch of French!

Le 48 is located in the Le Quarant-huit Resort in central Candi Dasa. The place was originally set up by French owners and has now passed to local Indonesian ones but it still keeps its French touches, if only just. However it is still different enough for Candi Dasa to stand out from the crowd.

The restaurant is oblong shaped, one end with lounge chairs, open to the spacious garden grounds, whilst the other looks out over the lotus lagoon, a most pleasant and relaxing daytime view.

Being a popular resort business begins at breakfast time and sensibly all the breakfast options are also still available during lunch making Le 48 the best location in Candi Dasa for a leisurely brunch. Breakfast time for most people is egg time and here there are many options. Done any way you wish and combined with pancakes for a very American Le 48 Breakfast.

More English is my selection of eggs, bacon and sausage [only the baked beans are missing], with sautéed potatoes and mushrooms, tea or coffee for just Rp55,000++.

Jumbled spelling presents a Corque Monsieur, hopefully the product is not so jumbled but the Eggs Benedict are described as Poached Eggs with hollandaise sauce [on a ham and cheese sandwich], which is rather bewildering. A range of omelettes and pancakes [if you must] completes a reasonable menu.

As Le 48 is a perfect daytime spot they have been quite clever in presenting an extensive list of entrees, appetizers or snacks [no they are not ‘tapas’], great for constant nibbling. Although the Les ‘Perfect Burgers’ item seems a bit too French! The patty is supposedly a mix of vegetables, chicken or fish with tofu, unusual.

Acrobatie de Crevettes en Sarong is what the Thais call ‘Prawn in a blanket’ and others ‘Prawn in a waistcoat’. 4 large jumbo prawns shelled but for the head and tail, wrapped in fine angel hair pasta and deep fried [pictured] with two dips, for just $5 is amazing value and very good too.

A snack plate from the Middle East is their serve of Lebanese Taboule, Italian carpaccio of zucchini and Moroccan style carrots in cumin. Being seaside at Candi Dasa seafood predominates throughout the menu. A Ceviche consists of thinly sliced Mahi-Mahi [they seem to specialize in this wonderful Balinese reef fish], marinated in lemon juice, olive oil and herbs. More Mahi-Mahi in Lollypops, minced and mixed

with spices the wrapped around lemongrass sticks. Or you can have the same fish Balinese style in Pepes, wrapped in banana leaf before being grilled.

Soup can be an Iced Zucchini with mint, cream and croutons or a hot Tomato Soup with basil added. Salads and other vegetarian options are many and varied including Sambal Goreng Tempe-Tofu, sautéed tempe and tofu caramelized and served with strawberries and pineapple. Nasi Goreng is served Le 48 [local] or Javanese. A Festival de Sate offers a mix sate selection of marinated chicken, prawns, tempe and tofu, with that mandatory peanut curry dip.

There is more seafood amongst the mains, which means more Mahi-Mahi options; fillet in orange sauce, grilled with a mango salsa or simple as Fish & Chips.

Chicken is done many ways; a breaded escalope in a cream sauce of onions and mushrooms with crispy bacon, as a steak with honey glaze also with bacon and a Rosemary [though a little over-cooked, sadly a common occurrence in Bali] presented ‘country style’ sitting on a sweet and sour salad of paprika and potatoes which is very good.

A bit of a shock is the very French Coq au Vin, which though correctly done in red wine with carrots, onion, mushroom, bacon and herbs is served with fettuccine. The menu claims that the origin of this dish is a ‘traditional rooster’…hopefully not via a cockfight!

The only other meat served here is Pork [no beef at all, very strange for tourist Bali]. The Pork Knuckle is roasted crisp and in onion jam with mustard sauce. The Pork Chop is grilled and is again served with that great sweet and sour paprika salad.

The Pork Ribs are done Bali style rather than the usual American BBQ. A very long dessert menu is also perfect for the lingering daytime guest, and many items are quite unusual such as their Apple Cubes cooked in butter and cinnamon served with vanilla ice cream, biscuit crumbles and caramel sauce.

Copyright © 2014 Gerry Williams A Fruit Fondue is popular with everyone, fruit cubes on sticks with a dipping bowl of warm dark chocolate. Green Lemon Meringue & Ginger Pie, Deep-fried ice cream, Spring Rolls stuffed with banana and covered with a chocolate sauce and Spanish Churros are all off-beat offerings, most of which are worth trying.

Within the limitations of dining in Candi Dasa Le 48 offers something a little different and definitely worth a stop for a relaxing lunch [or brunch] by the lagoon, or an early morning stop for breakfast on the way through.

Reviews that appear in Bali Advertiser are based on actual visits to the establishments listed, without the knowledge of the restaurants, and are not paid for by the individual restaurants.

Update Taman Taksu Garden Café is new at the Taksu complex, at the bottom of Jln. Goutomo, Ubud. It is situated between the main building [restaurant and treatment rooms] and the valley spa, amongst the gardens, an idyllic setting, so peaceful. Taksu does healthy, but healthy with taste. Most of the basics are organic, not that alone necessarily makes it taste any better but it is obviously healthier. Start with an early breakfast, after your work-out or just to relax in the garden. This can be very healthy [Hot Oatmeal, Muesli or Granola; homemade toasted granola with steel cut rolled oats, nuts, seeds, raisins, wild honey and coconut served with your choice of milk, cashew milk, apple juice or plain yogurt] or just a little bit healthy [croissant, muffin, bagel, toast [whole wheat, rye or multigrain] or Danish [cinnamon roll, apple or vanilla]. Gluten-free breads are also available on request. Lunch is a multi choice of healthy eating. Salads include Thai [cold noodles, mint, coriander, tomato, cucumber and nuts in a spicy lemongrass dressing], Green Papaya for more Thai, Japanese [seaweed with black fungus, cucumber and balsamic jalapeno or soba buckwheat noodles in tahini lemon dressing], Labsang Souchong [boiled eggs in spiced black tea, shredded cabbage and chopped nuts drizzled in sesame vinaigrette] and the master salad to make your day…dill-cured salmon with avocado and cucumber in a sweet mustard dressing [pictured]. Light snacks include Mexican Nachos and a Mezze Plate from the Middle East of hummus, tabouleh, baba ghanoush, tzatziki, olives, feta and pita bread. Soups hot [chilli bean] or cold [strawberry bisque], and Sandwiches [pesto turkey and cheese]. Finish with a raw dessert of Chia Pudding to keep your cholesterol in check!

Buddakan is big news for Sanur and Bali. Quality Chinese restaurants are sadly missing from the Bali scene even though they abound in Surabaya and Jakarta. It has always been one of Bali’s mysteries with most just seemingly built solely for the mass bus group market. Chinoiserie on Sunset Road was all class but no one went there so it had to close, another mystery? Now we have another chance and this one is for real with specialty dishes from all over China but specializing in Szechuan, Chinese with a bite! They offer many dishes that are rarely seen here although of course a selection of the standard ones is on the menu as well. Jelly Fish with chilli oil, shallots, coriander and lemongrass, Shredded Shank deep-fried and crispy, Roast Pigeon Hong Kong style and a Claypot of Braised Sea Cucumber with hot chilli. All the standard dishes are also here, and done well. Beef [wok-fried Mongolian], Chicken [stir-fried with Kung Po and cashew nuts], Duck [whole bird with house special sauce], Prawns [sautéed with broccoli and XO], Scallops [with leek and ginger], Noodles [kway theow with beef, black mushrooms, egg, bean sprouts and sweet soy] and Rice [yong chow fried rice with prawns and bacon].

Mama Mia has quickly established itself as a part of Ubud’s ‘little Italy’, which is 100 metres of road at Raya Pengosekan with a string of Italian and pizza restaurants. Their sibling is a mini restaurant, same name, on the upper part of Jln. Hanoman, the monster pizza oven taking up most of the inside space. It is mainly to serve the booming home delivery market as most of the local expat and villa community is north of Ubud central, where there are only two other pizza options [Uma Pizza and Uma Cuccina, no relation to each other]. Unheard of a few years ago but now the sight of delivery motorbikes with that pizza hotbox on the back is a common one, day and night.

C/R/G-19 Feb. 14

Spice Beach Club has quickly established itself on Bali’s northern coast. It is beachfront at Kalibukbuk, Lovina. It is no wonder as it is so different from all else up there, its blue and white décor giving it a Mediterranean feel that is only increased by the menu options of many Greek dishes doing justice to the colours of the Greek flag. A series of wantilans and rotundas are surrounded by swimming pools as they face the swept-clean beach. Perfect lunchtime snacks by the seaside; Gyros [spicy chicken wrapped in pita], Toast aux Champignon [sautéed mushrooms and onions], Goat Cheese on Toast, homemade Dutch Kroket on a soft roll, Souvlaki wrapped in a tortilla and the SBC Pyramid of quarter sandwiches stuffed with mozzarella cheese and deep-fried. Mains continue the trend with Zuzukakia [Greek minced beef patties nicely spiced], Beef Short Ribs, Steaks and Rack of Lamb, Grilled Prawns in garlic butter and a monster Seafood Platter for two. It may sound and look like Seminyak but the prices are pure Lovina!!

Worth the trip north just to spend the day at the Spice Beach Club [they have diving too, for the energetic ones!]

Shankara Resto is a puzzle, taking over a major site on Jln, Danau Toba, Sanur that has seen many previous failures. Any place that uses the ‘resto’ name is one that I normally avoid, but I get the feeling that this one may have done it right! A major renovation [read re-building] has taken place of the ancient wantilan that once stood amongst the trees by a well known operator of local restaurants. It is open early morning but as yet no breakfast is served unless you want Nasi Goreng with your morning coffee, perhaps it is still to adapt to the tourist market that prevails here? All the usual snacks are available plus a Mixed Salad with the works; lettuce, avocado, tomato, onions, papaya and pickled eggs with honey mustard dressing. Many Indonesian Chinese dishes; Lemon Chicken, Sweet & Sour Pork and Beef in black pepper among them. A quality fit-out that looks interesting!

Bale Udang is a large and most successful local operation on Jln. Nakula, Kuta. They specialize in Udang [prawns] done many different ways. The restaurant is very popular with both domestic and international tourists. Now they have also opened a similar operation facing the rice paddies on the outskirts of Ubud at Jln. Goa Gajah [just before Chedi Club] at Teges.

Fresh King Prawns prepared a myriad of different ways, the easy way for a group is to order the House Specialty, Hurang Ageung, a monster bowl of prawns, a combination that represents the most popular dishes. They also offer other seafood options, Squid, Crab and Carp plus Beef Ribs, Chicken and Duck.

Warung Santai has no connection with that popular hotel on Amed’s coast. It is indeed a mini coffee shop [with snacks] hidden just around the corner from Jln. Danau Toba in Jln. Tandakan, Sanur [that small road that links to The ByPass]. It has just opened and for now the snacks are limited in this attractive air-con café; Quesadillas can be Cheese [with coriander and spring onions] or Chicken [with red peppers and spring onions]. Bruschettas come in a serve of three; beetroot pesto, watercress and with feta cheese. There are also a few daily blackboard specials. Mocktails include Healthy [carrot, lime, strawberry and mint] and Energy [carrot, orange, ginger and those cholesterol chasing wonders, Chia seeds]. They also have a full range of juices, coffees and teas.

We proudly announce the reopening of

UBUD BODY MAGIC Congratulations to Rotary Ubud Sunset for another fabulous “Fun Raiser”, exchanging a great evening for a slice of our wallets, as they continue their various health and education projects, making life easier for the underprivileged here in Indonesia.

Some of the extraordinary body musicians from Bali’s international-touring sanggar Cudamani joined with Khalid Freeman, a “Stepping” and “Stomping” performer who is traveling the world with Cirque de Soleil’s Michael Jackson the Immortal World Tour. Musical backing from visiting Scottish born jazz pianist Duncan McKee and well-respected musician Kevin Briggs created an unforgettable night.

Body music or body percussion involves the musicians using their own body as the instrument, whether in a traditional way, such as the Indonesian saman, or anything from beatbox to stomping, singing, patting, clapping and tapping. The Cudamani guys are always beyond awesome; keep an eye on their website, and if you are a musician or dancer, think about joining their UCLA Summer Institute program this July. http://cudamani.org/ VOLUNTEERS LINK UP Ubud volunteer Jen Richardon has just ¿nished her mission in the Philippines, after ironically catching dengue herself as she trained a local team to spread mosquito larvacide across Tacloban city, to protecting local families from dengue fever.

So she missed the day that her hosts, Sister Rosa from Sacred Heart School and Tacloban Rotarian champions, Joel Caminade and Joseph Escalona, took a truck full of donated clothing to Robin Lim’s new Mercy Mission clinic, an hour away from the city in devastated Dulag township.

The Rotary truck quickly became a temporary ambulance, returning a ¿ve-month pregnant patient back along the coast to the Médecins Sans Frontières clinic at Bethany hospital, and then going back once more to Dulag with medicines and other hospital equipment for Robin’s delighted volunteers, Dr Niko and midwife Jacquiline, and delivering school kits for grades 1 and 2 pupils at the adjacent school. Donations to https://www.facebook.com/RCTacloban.

EXTRAORDINARY FILMMAKERS In March and April, make time for movies from two outstanding directors; Frenchman Claude Sautet on Wednesdays and Italian, Ferzan Ozpetek on Thursdays, at Blackbeach Restaurant.

Istanbul-born Ozpetek is a multi-award winning contemporary filmmaker who weaves an unforced multiculturalism through his ¿lms, where apparently ordinary people challenged by extraordinary situations. Sautet was ¿rst a painter, sculptor and TV producer before earning international attention with Les Choses de la Vie in 1970, the ¿rst of many outstanding ¿lms that he has both written and directed. Sautet’s last two ¿lms of this series, Nelly and Mr Arnaud and A Heart in Winter, are said to be his masterpieces.

Movies at Blackbeach Restaurant on Jl Hanoman; French on Wednesdays and Italian on Thursdays starting at 8pm.

No fee but bookings or early arrivals a really good idea. www. blackbeach.asia TAPAS AT SUNSET; MOONLIT ROMANCE Here’s some news for romantics. Indus Restaurant has complimentary Sunset tapas every Saturday from 5-7pm, and Indus comes complete with a beautiful view across the Campuhan valley gorge. Facing east but you can’t have everything; it’s still a stunner view.

Or if there’s romance in your heart, entice your darling to an Indus Lover’s Feast for Two - Janet de Neefe’s best three courses of “delectable intimacy”, under the world’s most romantic moon. Rp 400,000 per couple, every full moon. http://www.casalunabali.com/indus-restaurant.

SLEEPING FIVE STARS With so many delightful places to stay in Bali, it’s tricky to find something with a bit of extra magic. So, I’m looking forward to the opening of Luxe Villas’ Sky Suites on Jl Kejang.

Luxe Villas already has a devoted clientele, but I think the owners will attract many more who like the choice of sleeping in an air-conditioned suite or looking up at the stars from the comfort of a glass lounge – their own private roof garden. Myself, I’ve always loved the “stars” part of camping under the stars, but am less enthusiastic these days about the camping part.

Only 10 minutes walk to the center of Ubud, with private pools for each guest residence, Luxe Villas are surrounded by rice¿elds, where Luxe recently sponsored the stunning rice¿eld art installation Taue Project by Setsu Suzuki. Email: paul@luxevillasbali.com or phone +62-82145 493144.

HUBUD LINKS TO OZ Bali’s ¿rst networking hub, HUBUD, is making the most of visits by working travellers to forge links with similar coworking spaces around the region.

HUBUD co-founder Peter Wall says as well as Singapore, reciprocal arrangements are now in place between members of the Ubud centre with those in Melbourne, Australia. That means members of HUBUD can claim a week’s free membership in Melbourne, while their members visiting Bali have the same free offer in the Ubud premises, which is 100 meters east of the entrance to the Monkey Forest.

BALI GREEN WALKS Are you new to Bali or just ready to peel back another layer of this fascinating island? I can recommend taking a Bali Green Walk with Komang Suamba, either close to Ubud or in Jatiluwih in the Tabanan regency.

From an early age, Komang was inspired by his grandmother, who treated all the family illnesses with herbal remedies and taught him the importance of sharing knowledge of the healing capabilities of nature. Komang is Àuent in English, great at answering questions and passionate about the island’s precious herbs and their ability to heal. http://www. indonesiaorganic.com.

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

Global Reading: Join the Party

By Shelley Kenigsberg

Hello, sayubona, shalom, g’day, swastiastu, namaste. It’s 2014 (already!) and my year has begun with a quest. A reading quest that arose from my panic (mixed with joy) at the thought of how I’m going to get through the number of books I’ve yet to read from the “Best of 2013” book lists and the ones I’ve already got piled up at the bedside. Perhaps panic is too strong. Persuaded might be a better choice but it interests me why we pick up one book over another; just what it is that drives us to read and how the selection is made.

Now, as a white African Jewish woman born and raised in Zimbabwe and now living in Australia, I have a range of influences that insert themselves into those reading lists. And I’ve spent many years enjoying learning to read other cultures. And it was always thrilling (and, at times, confounding) to ‘get’ the richness of others’ interpersonal codes, social mores, subtexts, historic references… all the nuances of so many versions of popular and classical culture.

Yet I was sometimes left feeling that I was on the outside looking in. And were I lucky enough to get in, might I be exposed as not really understanding? As the outsider or, even, the butt of the joke? A dear English friend tells a great anecdote of when he was in Paris, learning French. He was invited to a friend’s mother’s home for dinner. After a perfectly charming meal (with not a faux-pas in sight) the hostess produced a platter with biscuits made of her homemade fig and ginger jam. Exuding gratitude my dear friend told the hostess that all the jam in England is full of preservatives; how lucky he was to have such a wholesome and healthy organic jam, “Plein de préservatifs”. The family was silent.

Then all burst out laughing. He went on, blushing, not quite understanding the French humour: “Plein de préservatifs – Madame, Je vous assure!” When the laughter subsided a fellow guest leaned in. It seems, he was told, that a mix up had occurred. The French for food preservatives is agent de conservation while he had ‘preferred’ the inaccurate preservatif , French for condom. As he swallowed the last gulp of condom-free jam on his condom-free baguette he vowed to work harder in his French classes.

Now, language classes and travel guides can take us far. But for me, being immersed in a country’s literature has always worked to bring that place alive. When I could not board a boat or a plane, my love and curiosity of art, music, film and literature gave me a legitimate entry into other exotic cultures — those being any I was not familiar with no matter how closely they appeared to resemble my own. It was through the Arts, by their nature inviting and exciting, that I heard: “Welcome, we do not discriminate. We will teach, provoke, and help you empathise. You may not agree with how we see things but there’s always room for a conversation!” So this is what I did. This is how I learned to integrate into new worlds. I immersed myself in art from all over the world at every opportunity I could.

While I am a fan of all the Arts, I still believe it’s through literature that I can most easily enter. Books demand that we take our time, invest hours and hours. Books get under our skin and often we’re not even sure of the exact point of entry — they just travel around with us, within us. No passport, no visa required; no jet lag — just a smooth landing in our own time into another world of taste, smells, experience, pain, hope, realities, romance, forbidden love, politics, adventure, courage and on and on and on the wheel of humanity turns.

Global connectivity through the Internet and social media has meant a thrilling growth in our ability to share more and more of our diverse cultures. Read on the net widely now and you’ll realise the oft-cited fear that it would produce one homogenised global culture; one bland uniformed art scape has, happily, been debunked.

And with these bits and bytes, we have access to stories that may not have ever reached more than a local few. Now, there are thousands of cross-cultural art festivals throughout the world: Iranian Film Festivals in London, the Indonesian Cultural Festival in Australia, the African Festival in Pakistan … the list is endlessly creative.

Of course, Writers and Readers festivals have taken root in all corners of the globe. And Bali’s — ‘our very own’ Ubud Writers and Readers Festival — has become one of the literary tourists’ favourite destinations. A passionate cohesion of Indonesian and international authors, poets, playwrights assemble for a feast for all the senses. The cultural merging produces a batik of stunning variety and aliveness. We can wrap ourselves in this fabric of life, in just one location on the planet and have a hundred plus book tours brought to the table; world stories laid at our feet. It is remarkable. And is truly remarked upon.

A dinner companion at last year’s UWRF asked me: “You’re a global traveller, right?” “Yes?” I replied, thinking there was something good on its way. “Well, I know, this festival’s special,” she went on, “but you also just have to find ayearofreadingtheworld.com.”

I did. Now I’m imploring you to do the same. It’s written by Ann Morgan, as record of her reading quest — begun in 2012 — to read her way around the globe’s 196 independent countries — sampling one book from every nation. One of the most exciting blogs I’ve found in a long time it’s the epitome of technology and art broadcasting so generously; offering the world on a silver computer screen for us to lap up, to devour.

C/U/G-19 Feb. 14

Morgan began by reading a story from Swaziland, then a novel from Nicaragua, a book from Brunei and on it went.

And now she’s put those adventures down as a book so, look out for it: Reading the World: Postcards from my Bookshelf will be published in 2015. Be ready, too, for her future visits at global literary festivals.

And what of your next reading adventure? Might you also go on a reading quest? Make that a ‘yes’. Join in the global conversation. Stop waiting for enough money to get on a plane to meet the world. It’s all there at a fraction of the cost at your virtual fingertips.

FatBu – Handcrafted Resinware Wow, such fabulous product for your home, irresistible colors, so tempting to buy!

This small enterprise (don’t you just love the name!) only started a year ago and they are already marching along to the beat of a drum - going from strength to strength.

Clever folk they are, who spotted a niche for a unique product in a crowded marketplace, that is, product for tabletop and home accessories.

Here is another example of what a Balinese artisan can do; take some resin, a mold and (lots of steps in-between) to present a beautiful collection of handcrafted platters with servers, plates, cheeseboards, dishes, spoons and bowls, big fat drinking tumblers with swizzle spoons, cups, egg cups, coasters and vases.

Resinware provides a fresh alternative to ceramicware and the best fun is mixing all these products in eye catching colors to create a super stylish table setting.

There are two ranges of resinware available for choice; Organics and Retro, both of which come in three µ¿nishes’ which is, solid, transparent and abstract.

The Organic range is non-uniform in shape and form. $dd an abstract µ¿nish’ to give an artistic swirling pattern. Then there’s the solid µ¿nish’ that provides a full depth in color and ¿nally there’s the translucent which is a lovely melange of light and darker shadow - it’s the µ¿nishes’ on the resin that make these products unique!

The Retro collection features the very popular 50’s /60’s style, combining bold colors and strong shapes to reÀect the abstract expressionism of the time, two µ¿nishes’ on the product are available, abstract and translucent.

A myriad of product shapes, a palette of fabulous colors, mix them up and team with some of your ceramics, dining is meant to be colorful and fun!

Add a few pieces to rest in your living space, another piece for your bedroom and oh yes, there is a new collection of bathroom and spa products coming soon! After an ‘insiders peek’ I can attest that these will go down very well with the ever growing FatBu clientele....

Bet you are wondering if FatBu resinware is dishwasher proof?! It is, up to 65’C, however, believe that handwashing would be more preferable for such distinctive handcrafted product. Resinware is durable however be careful, a bad knock will break the piece just like ceramic. Further instructions for caring and food safety of FatBu product can be found on their website.

Where does one purchase FatBu resinware product?

FatBu’s showroom on Jl Danau Buyan Sanur, Kevala Home on Batubelig and a store called The Walking Tree at Sandy Bay over on Nusa Lembongan, as well, a collection of FatBu product is available from the delightful Pandana Guesthouse.

I think you will see much more of this fabulous Fatbu resinware product sitting atop many a dining table soon!

HECTOR’S Let’s Hear No More of Her Schapelle Corby, celebrity jailbird by Australian media acclaim and blessed (though that’s hardly the word) with a scrofulous family, has finally been freed on parole. That’s a good outcome, far too long delayed but welcome nonetheless. The excessive jail term to which she was sentenced in 2005 will forever be an indictment of a judicial system that risks being seen as one that punishes defendants for the gutter prattle of their mothers and others and sentences them on the basis that their crimes have brought Indonesia into disrepute.

Anyone who watches Indonesia with an objective mind knows that the shenanigans that go on here 24/7 are the real embarrassment. There’s no need to co-opt photogenic teary-eyed little foreign “victims” to the cohort that damages Indonesia’s reputation. There’s a whole homegrown industry that already does that very well. No need, that is, unless you genuinely haven’t noticed the rampant corruption and criminality, and the endemic social deprivation that blights the country. That noted, we also note the improbabilities in Corby’s story when she was caught at Ngurah Rai in 2004 (“I didn’t know my boogie board was loaded” is a lame excuse even for someone with a “vacant” stamp on their forehead). We note that the marijuana is said to have come from South Australia, a prime growing spot because the state’s dry climate gives its weed a special zing. And while we’re noting, we should remember that Bali was (and still is) a transit point for drug smuggling.

“Why send weed to Bali?” is not a legitimate question.

Jakarta, Surabaya and other large Indonesian cities are the real drug markets here.

The post-parole fracas that Corby, her family and hangerson, and sections of the Australian media engaged in covers them with something far less fragrant than glory.

Corby in particular appears to have learned nothing. It is possible that she is so disoriented that she’s barely functional, and if so that’s a tragic shame. Those who care for her should help with her rehabilitation if that’s the case.

Her parole rules, of which she was advised last August, exclude unauthorized media interviews. An objective observer might conclude that the mob surrounding her still thinks it can play the Indonesians for suckers. That’s not just rude. It’s plain stupid.

No Fanfares, Just Results It was nice to escape the distasteful scrimmage of the Corby parole freedom media event by focusing instead on something that’s really positive at Kerobokan Jail. It’s not a nice place, the prison, though none actually is, anywhere, since a prison is not meant to be a holiday resort. But by Indonesian standards Kerobokan is better than many.

That’s something else those fixated on the “Phwaar” rating of incarcerated foreign chicks with happy-snap blue eyes should think about now and then.

Lizzie Love – one of the feistier ladies who lunch around these parts (some of them are truly terrifying, but we seem to have worked out with Lizzie a comfortable way to get a lot of giggles) – tells us of another great scheme at the jail that should be up and running soon. It’s in addition to the wide range of benefits available to inmates who choose to take part.

These include education, skills building, welfare support and an innovative organic garden project supervised by the ROLE Foundation and Canggu Rotary designed to provide fresh vegetables for the prison. The latest scheme augments existing animal husbandry facilities at the jail and is called the KK9 Inmate Assistance Dog Training Project. Kennels are being built. Organizers are looking for some dog-friendly assistance, which should be widely available given the strong presence here of animal welfare outfits. We’ll be keeping an eye on that project in particular. From our perspective it’s one that packs plenty of woof power.

Smile, Please There’s a fun evening with benefits at that fine dine and recline venue Cocoon, Seminyak, on Saturday (Feb. 22).

Rotary Club of Bali Seminyak and the Smile Foundation (Yayasan Senyum Bali whose leading light is the redoubtable Mary Northmore) have organized a fundraiser billed Have a Heart to support the foundation’s great work with children who suffer disfigurement from cleft palates and other cranio-facial conditions. Harris Hotels is a sponsor.

The show, with music and both live and silent auctions, starts at 6.30pm with dinner at 8pm. Tickets cost Rp800K. It’s a great cause so get along there if you can. Dress is “semi-formal”. According to the Diary’s new style adviser

Lizzie Love, that means the guys wear nice shirts and slacks. The ladies will all dress to kill as usual. It’s a girl thing. We’re grateful to Lizzie for this sartorial guidance.

Where we come from, semi-formal means you wear matching thongs (flip-flops).

Say Hello We were doing our day job the other day, out in the cyber world, when we chanced upon Linda Coles, content and relationship marketer, speaker and author of a useful social entrepreneurial self-help book named Start With Hello. Well, we said hello and it worked. Coles is a very positive person.

She bills herself as living and working in Sunny New Zealand. Perhaps Auckland gets out from under that long white cloud now and then. No, seriously, NZ is a great place and it’s brimming with entrepreneurial people.

Well, that’s probably brumming, come to think of it. But no matter: Kiwis might all say yis instead of yes and spend a lot of time wishing they were down at the bitch ketching fush, but they’re OK. That’s if you can forgive them for always beating the rest of the world at rugby. It’s a shocking crime that the best part of the match, if you’re barracking for the others, is the Haka before kick-off. Still, we’d like to see more Kiwis here. Nowadays as we’ve noted before it’s possible – Yis! – for more of them to get to Bali without an unnecessary (and often unnecessarily lengthy) stop on that other big island that lies between us and them.It’s worth dropping by bluebanana.co.nz. Coles’ primers on social networking (she has also written a book titled Learn Marketing with Social Media in 7 Days) are very useful.

Have a Nice Stay A little statement finally fluttered from the office of the Australian minister for foreign affairs on Feb. 11, one on which the Diary, the soul of discretion, had been waiting for some time. Foreign Minister Julie Bishop announced the appointment of Majell Hind as Australia’s new consul-general in Bali and noted she had already taken up the post. So welcome, Ms Hind. Have a nice stay.

C/G/G - 11 Dec. 13

Hind is a career foreign service officer, most lately of the Australian Embassy in Kabul. Bali is, on balance, a softer posting. It has its own special conditions though, including a consistent stream of Aussie travellers who have come to grief somehow or other (they never seem to know why, themselves, which is a big part of the problem). Her predecessor, Brett Farmer, left the fortified building on Feb. 5.

It’s the Money As is traditionally the case in arguments over land being alienated for development, Bali’s predicament has yet again been laid at the feet of outside investors. The rector of the National Education University, Professor Gede Sri Darma, has lately felt compelled to join the rising chorus warning that this poses a threat to the people of Bali. He says they risk becoming a landless underclass on their own island.

The professor has a point. But sadly it’s a moot one. It would be relatively easy to control land sales in Bali if anyone took any notice of the laws. Zoning restrictions can be very useful. Foreign investment controls are sensible (though an increasing component of property investment here is Indonesian and is driven by the rapacious Wegotalldamoney tribe).

Clear division of regulatory powers would be a great idea.

The poor Governor is still trying to get the regents to acquire some common sense. The regents are heads of local governments and should be subordinate in all respects. Their tastes quite naturally run in the other direction. Unfortunately national legislation on devolution gives them every reason to argue that way. Then again, if Balinese landowners really don’t want to lose their land, they only have to tell acquisitive buyers to go take a running jump. But it’s the money, you see. Bali’s real problem is that it is now a monetized entity. Traditional values always take a back seat in those conditions.

19 February - 05 March, 2014

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 05, 2014

Well Mercury is still retrograde until the 28th. It will move back into Pisces on the 17th and back to where it retrograded on the 21st, directly after the equinox. Jupiter squares Uranus exactly this fortnight as it remains also in its retrograde until early March. This square brings sudden impulse to change; to let go of what’s been holding you back and to take risks. The Sun moves into Pisces on the very first day of the fortnight and the North Node moves into Libra, where it will remain until November 2015. Libra brings the theme of relationship and partnership into our lives and there will be key meetings over this next year and a half to two years. The New Moon is on the 1st and followed by Mars in Libra turning retrograde and retracing its steps through to mid May. Remember it has its rendezvous in April with the current T-square with Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto and will effectively turn it into a Grand Cross. We will be feeling the pull towards this intense configuration all the way through to the exact meeting mid to late April. Mars has been in Libra since early December and will finally leave at the end of July. After this exceptionally long sojourn of eight months in a sign, we will finally feel like our energy has freed up and then can actually get on and do something constructive and particularly in the work area of our lives. There is so much healing going on in our relationships and with this next New Moon close to Chiron the healing will continue. The New Moon also ties in closely with Jupiter in Cancer bringing family relationship healing.

NEW MOON 10 Pisces 39 March 1, 2014 4:01 p.m.

ARIES Mars squares off to Venus at the end of February and this brings challenges and confrontations within your relationships and they could center around your work values and your commitment within your love or business partnerships.

The New Moon is in the spiritual area of your chart and will probably foster a little more alone and contemplative time. This could give you the space you require to get your head straight with regard to recent, impending or ongoing communications. As Uranus in your first house of self interest is directly connected to Jupiter in the area of home and family, you feel inspired to make changes here.

LIBRA As Mars in Libra gets ready to turn retrograde for the next two and a half months, you may feel your energy internalizing and a certain movement away from those closest to you. It may be, that either or both of you need to get on with your business plans or focus more on yourself for this time period. Allow this interlude to bring a freshness to your relationships and be willing to give them a bit of a make-over during these coming months. The old ways haven’t been sitting well with you anyhow and this is the opportunity to do the work on yourself and to take your place also in the bigger picture of worldly trends and situations.

TAURUS Venus your ruler, finally reaches new degrees this fortnight, squares Mars and gets ready to enter Aquarius. That’s a lot of influence in a short time. Mars is in your work house and centers around relationships with work colleagues, partners, employees or bosses and Venus in your house of travel and higher learning. As your values shift according to new information this influences the above relationships and by the time Venus moves into Aquarius and your tenth house of vocation you may well be ready for a new job, line of work or worldly expression. It maybe time to experiment with career options or simply to try something new.

SCORPIO Not much mention of Pluto this fortnight although it’s still rumbling away there under the surface, slowly tearing down the structures of your mental constructs. Well at least those which no longer work for you. With the challenge from Uranus in your house of work and service you are no doubt getting inspired to try something new in this area as well. This New Moon illuminates your romantic sector and brings a little healing to your children or your own inner child. In fact, family matters run pretty deep at the moment and this is opportunity to do some real transformation in that area. Mercury retrogrades in your fourth house.

GEMINI This fortnights New Moon falls in your career sector and highlights the necessity for a little healing. The support comes from your second house of values, material and monetary.

Perhaps it’s time to ask for some more money or to command a little more respect or maybe you are another who has a new line of self-expression or vocation that is about to be expressed. This Pisces energy is a little foreign to you and often challenges that more communicative edge of yours. Answers next month may come through inspiration and dreams and brought into manifestation through your imagination.

SAGITTARIUS Venus and Pluto both in your second house of values and rather rapidly now, changing your stance on many and varied topics, including relationship. There is very soon coming, the opportunity to discuss much with those you care for. In fact, family and home are rather highlighted throughout March and this is the healing that you’ve prayed would come. Transformation, change and the subsequent expansion will come through your efforts along with some luck and Grace itself. A sudden romance is still a potential and could act as the catalyst for this next round of deeper transformation.

CANCER Jupiter in your first house of self-expression and personality is being highly charged by Uranus in your tenth house of career/vocation this fortnight and promises to bring some unexpected, possibly exciting changes to your routine and your wardrobe. This could well be the shove you’ve needed to end a certain chapter of your life. This Pisces New Moon falls in your house of foreign concerns, higher learning or legal matters. If you have any or all of these to deal with in the coming month, know that it will bring a great deal of healing and will support this new move of yours into the next phase of your life.

CAPRICORN Saturn is about to go retrograde for the next four and a half months in your community and friendship house. Pluto in the first house is supporting this revision with regard to your community standing and the persona or personality that you take into any dealing and meetings within it. More of your authentic self is shining through as you go through this metamorphosis and stand-up for your values and beliefs. All of this is currently under revision, so go gently with yourself for as soon as Venus moves out of that first house and into your second you will have more confidence in the new model and be able to exhibit it more effectively.

LEO This Mercury retrograde has been primarily in your seventh house of relationship and is about to move direct or forward. If you feel like you’ve been mulling over old stuff, then you probably have. Uranus, the ruler of Aquarius is in your ninth house of higher learning/values and legal matters and so you may get some surprises or an interesting download of new information that will support your journey of spiritual discovery. Once you stop mentally projecting your story onto the World or those closest to you, then things really begin to change and this New Moon Pisces will usher in the next phase of deep healing and transformation.

AQUARIUS Venus is very soon to enter your first house and will bring some lovely new physical changes to your appearance and to have you more vocally proclaiming your values.

At the moment there is much in review with regard to how your present yourself to the world. This fortnight’s New Moon is in your second house of possessions and what you do truly value. You are set for a month of healing as Jupiter in your sixth house of health harmoniously works with the New Moon energy. It’s an emotional time and even the more mentally inclined you, is experiencing wet eyes from time to time. A real sense of family is emerging.

VIRGO You are set for some relationship romance and healing starting on this next new moon and it will be supported by your friends and those you choose to spend your life with and around. Uranus in your house of sex and endings makes sure that you able to release the old patterning and paradigm.

Sexual exploration and experimentation could play a large part in this healing. Mercury retrograde through your house of work and service and will also re-enter the seventh house next month. For now you are doing the mental homework with regard to your work situation. It too is up for review and remodel. For now, be patient.

PISCES Neptune and Chiron continue to dominate and now the Sun also moves into join the first house pair. Obviously a great time for you to be your otherworldly, ethereal and divine self this coming month and to enjoy the deep healing that this brings. With the New Moon conjoined the Sun and Chiron at the beginning of March, your emotions run particularly deep and with the trine to Jupiter in your fifth house of children and romance, you are intuiting a lot with your potential or existing Beloved and the children close to you.

Community is highlighted with relationship confrontations bringing transformation and new relationships.

by Colin Bloodworth

DO YOU SUFFER FROM ILLIQUIDITY? No, this isn’t a medical condition. Neither is it a complaint by someone waiting a long time to get served at the bar.

It is a kind of ailment however, but of a financial nature.

It means basically not having enough cash. Not simply temporarily, as in most cases you can run to the nearest ATM, but it means having no access to cash or liquid funds at all and thus being unable to pay your bills. You may be asset-rich, but if you cannot pay your bills you can be declared bankrupt and have your assets seized. You might own a castle, but if you have no cash to pay your taxes or your staff you have lost your castle. Similarly, if you cannot meet your mortgage payments you have lost your home.

You cannot raise cash quickly by selling a bathroom. That is why property is considered a very illiquid investment.

A classic example – the crash of 2008 Following years of ‘irrational exuberance’ as an earlier Chairman of the US Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan put it, 2008 saw one of the worst global financial crises in history. Were it not for clever manoevering by western governments the crisis could have led the world into a depression comparable to that of the 1930’s. Basically it was a credit crunch; everyone had been borrowing excessively and now it was payback time. Thousands of homeowners, particularly in the US found they could not meet their mortgage payments. Banks panicked and stopped lending to each other. They called in loans and put many small companies out of business. People desperate to raise cash started to cash in their investments. If they had invested in the stock markets they could raise cash swiftly but the rush for the doors caused markets to fall by around 40% globally. So while people were able to access cash they took a big hit in terms of investment losses.

Ironically, the stock markets staged a rapid recovery a year later. The S&P 500 gained 100% between March 2009 and July 2010. But those who had to bail out missed the recovery. The few real winners were those who had retained ample liquidity, meaning they had kept plenty of money in the bank, and who were bold enough to go into the market when the markets were at rock bottom.

Interestingly, the 2008 credit crunch had only a limited impact in Indonesia; Bali probably wasn’t even aware of it.

One reason was possibly the lower reliance on loans to purchase properties, although more recent trends imply there could be more problems next time around, particularly in Jakarta where there has been a property construction boom, much of it led by easy bank lending.

What was the impact of the crash on mutual funds?

If the fund was stock market or commodity related it invariably crashed since the underlying assets were liquid and could be quickly translated into cash, albeit at a heavy loss since so many were selling. Conversely, US Treasury Bond funds did well as those who did have cash sought a traditional safe haven.

Some funds were impacted in a different way. Global stock markets had not been performing particularly well since the technology bubble burst at the start of the century. As interest rates fell investors were attracted to funds that were not correlated with traditional markets or which produced ‘absolute returns’ meaning that they were designed to produce steady, positive returns with little prospect of any losses. Millions of Dollars, Pounds and Euro poured into hedge funds, property, ground rental and student accommodation funds. The problem was, these funds still allowed monthly or at worst three-monthly

redemptions. As people panicked to raise cash too many of them tried to redeem at the same time. Since the assets in the funds were not liquid the funds had no alternative but to suspend dealing. Some such funds actually started after the crash but they too have met the same fate more recently due to a rush of redemptions, possibly by people who wanted to switch back into stocks when major markets (but not emerging markets) boomed briefly in 2013.

Jakarta – Bali – Batam C/BT/G-19 Feb 14

In a worst case example, one commercial property fund had borrowed heavily to expand the fund. When the crisis hit, not only did the fund have to suspend redemptions but it had to meet the demands of the bank to pay interest and repay capital. But since there was a credit crunch there was no market for the properties and values spiralled downwards. Latest estimates value the fund at just 20% of its previous high and it remains suspended. Yet the same fund had enjoyed a glorious boom period up to the late 2000’s, outperforming stock market funds. Such are the dangers of illiquidity and excessive borrowing.

So what lessons are there for individuals?

The most important one is to always maintain a healthy level of liquidity. In other words, enough money in the bank to meet all short term needs and to cater for unforeseen contingencies. Money in the bank is not an investment; it is more likely to lose value in purchasing power but it is there when you need it. If you lose your job or have a serious illness or accident you are not going to lose your house and car if you have cash in reserve.

C/BT/G-22 Jan. 14

But don’t keep all your eggs in the cash basket. Once you have ascertained how much cash you need make sure your longer term money is invested in a variety of assets to ensure your money grows in real terms. Investments in stocks and bonds should be for the longer term but they can if necessary be encashed at any time as they are still liquid. Hopefully you won’t need to do so but at least you have that fall-back.

Do not be afraid of illiquid investments once you are certain you have enough liquid investments to protect you in the near and medium term. This means you can safely buy property and invest in funds that may require you leave your cash invested for five years or longer. There are plenty of funds where it is possible to obtain returns of 10% plus per annum with limited risk of loss provided you can accept you won’t have access to the money for a number of years. An extreme example is venture capital where you can make ten times your investment or more, provided the venture is successful and you leave your money invested for perhaps five years or more. But with such returns also comes the possibility of total loss. Hence the importance of having plenty of cash in reserve; you don’t want to find yourself illiquid if you need to go to a bar to drown your sorrows.

Never too Old to Achieve the Stupendous Find a Way! Last September a 64-year old American woman, Diana Nyad, completed a 110 mile (177 km) continuous swim from Havana, Cuba to Florida’s Key West. It was an amazing feat considering her age and the fact she is the first swimmer to succeed without the use of a protective shark cage and swim fins. It took her 53 hours and she says it was the hardest swim of her life, battling sharks and jellyfish, dehydration and disorientation.

her only concession to this was to wear a full-body suit and face mask to protect from the stings of these predators which can leave deep wounds and can even be fatal. When quizzed about the reasons for not using the shark cage as other swimmers have done on similar runs, she explained that the cage is dragged behind a boat and reduces drag, which gives swimmers an unfair advantage. Diana swam unfettered and un-tethered. Her biggest challenges were jellyfish, boredom and exhaustion. She says she kept going by reciting her mantra over and over: find a way to make it through; find a way to escape the stings of the jellyfish - which she did by donning a full-body wetsuit when jellyfish were near-; find a way to stave off boredom - which she did by silently humming the full repertoire of Beatles songs; find a way to beat exhaustion - which she did by pacing herself and alternating swim strokes to relieve the stress on certain muscle groups.

Diana is an inspiration for young and old alike. As a world class athlete, writer, journalist and motivational speaker, she constantly works to get the message across that you’re never too old to chase your dreams; that you should live big, dream big and dig down deep to find the courage and stamina to realize your heart’s desires.

In a way, it isn’t so much the physical feat of Diana’s swim that is the focus of attention, even to herself. Her overriding goal is to inspire and motivate others, especially those people who tend to see advancing age in a passive-aggressive way. Her message is to not hook into the prevailing tendency to scale back life as the biological clock ticks forward; to keep the fighting spirit alive by pushing the envelope, be it physical, mental or any way imaginable.

Diana’s life is an interesting string of setting up and conquering challenges. Yes, she is a trained athlete and has been swimming and winning marathons for 40 years. In the 1970’s she became the greatest endurance swimmer in the world, breaking numerous records in her wake. At age 26 she swam around the island of Manhattan, beating a 50-year-old record.

At age 30 she set a new record for a crossing between the Bahamas and Florida. At 28 she attempted her first swim from Cuba to Florida. In all she made 5 attempts to swim that same distance and each failure just strengthened her resolve to win.

It is remarkable that she is making spectacular achievements at an age where most athletes are retired or have throttled back significantly. Diana feels she is at the peak of her life right now, even physically. Age is not an obstacle in her world.

She says she hasn’t noticed aging yet and doesn’t see the limitation. She still has many dreams, many goals and many shores she wants to reach. She calls her onward challenges her “Xtreme Dream”; a never-ending string of challenges.

Diana’s feats make world news and she cleverly uses the exposure to concentrate on the message she wants to put up front. The message is to never, ever give up; that you’re never too old to attain your goals, it’s never too late to chase your dreams; strength is ageless and life is not over at age 60, 70, or beyond. Age is just a number to which you should attach no importance. And the aging body, supported by healthy food, healthy exercise, active mental activity and a positive outlook, is capable of far more than we generally give it credit for.

Above all, as Diana shows, the combination of mental, physical and spiritual strength is the catalyst to attain any goal you set for yourself. Perseverance, determination and persistence are the leitmotiv of success. Her mantra is: Find a way! Never give up. Inspiration and courage are always within reach.

Diana stresses that this should be a way of life. Continue to believe. This powerful mantra is a driving force which stimulates, motivates and inspires. It is far more compelling than the passive, feel-good, non-resistance mantras of traditional meditation practices.

Diana inspires by example. She regularly does endurance swims for charity, inviting the public to swim along for a mile, 2, 5 or more. In April last year she swam non-stop for 24 hours to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Sandy in the US. She raised more than double the money for the same cause in a 48-hour continuous swim in New York City in October.

Her charity swims are well documented, well attended and well participated in. It is soul soothing to swim along with Diana for a good cause and at the same time, it is a motivating experience.

One wonders what motivates people to brave pain, threats, exhaustion and anxiety as she did on this Cuba to Florida swim. While sharks were present, they were not the biggest danger. Diana swam in waters infested with box jellyfish and

Diana is by no means an exception. There are many like her.

Philippe Petit is a 64-year old French high-wire artist who first gained fame in 1974 for his daring high-wire walk between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City.

Since then he has completed other spectacular wire walks in Europe and the USA; and he continues to perform whenever he has a chance and a sponsor. He still trains for several hours each day because he has one major walk on his wish list. Petit has been trying to organize a walk over the Grand Canyon for years. He says life should be lived on the edge of life. You have to exercise in rebellion, to refuse to taper yourself to rules.

Accomplishing physical feats at an advanced age is wonderful but equally inspiring is d e f y i n g e n o r m o u s p h y s i c a l challenges.

Famous British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, aged 71, has been battling a degenerative motor neuron disease since he was a 21 year old student at Oxford. At that time his prognosis was for maximum 3 more years of life. Under this death sentence he developed a morbid fear of wasting time and, rather than turn back into himself and devote his last years to preparation for his imminent death, he embarked on a frenzied round of research into the origins of the universe. As his body deteriorated his mind seemed to compensate and became sharper and more focused. His lectures, books and interviews have become legendary; as has his struggle to overcome all odds and defy the ravages of his physical disease. By sheer stubbornness, willpower and force of conviction, Stephen has stretched his 3-year prognosis beyond the unthinkable and after 50 years is still not giving up. Like Diana he finds ways to overcome the obstacles of his immobility. By now totally paralyzed and unable to move or speak, he uses a computer generated voice which he controls with just a cheek muscle and blinks from one eye. He has put modern technology to work to substitute for his lack of mobility, focusing instead on letting his brilliant mind work at full capacity formulating mathematical concepts and techniques to explain the birth of

the universe. Despite his illness, he continues to lecture at Cambridge University as professor emeritus where, until 2009, he occupied the chair once reserved for Isaac Newton. To the present day Stephen Hawking continues to produce his ever evolving work. He has no plans to retire.

There is no dearth of senescent superachievers with physical, mental or intellectual abilities that far belie their biological age. Time worn rockers like Bono, Rod Stewart, Sting and the Rolling Stones are all in their 70s and still going full tilt. Fashion designers like Karl Lagerfeld (80) are yet producing stunning collections which are worn by young and old alike. Film stars in their 80s and 90s like Morgan Freeman and Betty White grace the screen and not just in cameo roles.

Super-financiers like Warren Buffet and George Soros are eighty-narians, still sharp as a tack and their fortunes prove it.

Last year Canadian author Alice Munro won the Nobel Prize in Literature at the age of 82. Ms Munro is an inveterate storyteller and her collections of short stories are a masterpiece of contemporary literature. They excel in the description of complex and surprising human relationships in small town settings in which the protagonists invariably confront deep rooted customs and traditions. Alice Munro claims she is ready to retire but new ideas keep cropping up therefore she constantly wavers on her decision. Another prolific author and a master of the American short story is 92 year old Elizabeth Spencer whose talent is undiminished by age and is considered by some critics to be at the height of her literary powers. Like Munro, Elizabeth Spencer likes to write about the constraints of middle class life and how her characters rebel and react. There is a certain vantage to write character roles from the perspective of a very mature mind. As Alice Munro says, with aging comes empathy and that translates into a better understanding of the human condition.

All those achievers seem to have a common thread; they are immensely focused, stubborn, intensely motivated; they live outside of the box and are not afraid to get out of their comfort zone. Curiosity, imagination and determination are hallmarks.

Quoting Diana Nyad: “I am willing to put myself through anything; temporary pain or discomfort means nothing to me as long as I can see that the experience will take me to a new level. I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often-painful process.”

Diana’s advice to older people is to burn that candle fast before it burns itself out. Too often, we get complacent as we grow older and figure we will leave it to the younger generation to win life’s battles and challenges. Diana reminds us there is still a heck of a lot of life left in an aging body. If not born with a brilliant mind like Stephen Hawking or a physical constitution like Diana, there are still other ways to achieve the stupendous.

Everyone has a talent, a gift or a dream that can be developed.

You do have to get out of your comfort zone, up the ante and harness that indomitable will to achieve.

Whatever your other shore is, get there. Find a way!

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid!

By Vaughan Hatch

Why do people here talk about money ALL THE TIME? Back in 1997, one of the first expressions I learnt in Balinese was ‘Sing ngelah pis’. I had arrived as a scholarship student living off Rp.175.000 a month and Balinese friends I made told me that this could be a useful line to know if I ‘got in trouble’ in a dark alleyway in Poppies Lane or something. Ever since, I noticed that every Balinese family I lived with (I think I’ve lived with about 10 different families in different parts of Bali before I got married and had kids here) talked a lot about money. I kept hearing the word money (‘pis’) popping up in conversation. For sure, people said the ‘dirty word’ more than other cultures I had experienced.

Money has been a topic that has always been talked about openly by Balinese. Everyone seems to know how much everyone else is making or how much someone paid for a piece of land or some other business deal. A Balinese will often ask a foreigner how much they earn even when they have only first met.

The ‘dollar’ (originally meaning the USD but can basically mean any foreign currency) has become revered for those in the tourism industry (the majority of the population): many Balinese have ‘Dollar’ as their nickname and perhaps Bali’s most famous comedian bears the same name.

As you may know if have ever tried to shop at a market or an art-shop, there is never a fixed price for anything, and the price is manipulated up or down (mostly up!) depending on who the customer is.

Cash in Indonesia has always been visible – traditionally at markets many women would keep notes rolled up and plugged in their large earring holes, and I still see kids tucking a thousand rupiah note behind their ear. Due to the devaluation of the rupiah, often huge wads of cash are needed to make a substantially purchase. Only recently did people start to use plastic money or online banking, and cash is still the preferred transaction method.

Is it just these things that have led to a ‘money on the brain’ syndrome?

Or is there something more to it? More in the next issue of Kulture Kid.

A spokesman for Pro Fauna went on the record to say that during the month-long investigation, 20 long-tailed macaques had been traded.

International Women’s Day, March 8th 2014 A time to reflect on women’s choices in Bali

For an island so rich in resources and capital alike, it is remarkable that poverty in Bali is currently on the rise with more than 186,000 people living on less than $2 (USD) a day.

Gender inequalities in income distribution, access to credit and employment, and control over property make women in Indonesia even more vulnerable to chronic poverty than men.

In a day of recognition and awareness of women, the 8th of March marks the annual celebration of International Women’s Day. Conceived in the early 1900s as a dedicated time for women to join together and press for equal working conditions as men, the day continues to serve as a global platform for women’s issues today.

In Indonesia especially, this event provides a timely opportunity to shed light on the ever-increasing number of women who find themselves struggling between tourism-driven inflation and increasing competition in the low-skilled job market. In Bali, many girls are trapped in degrading working conditions and a life of poverty, without the means to escape or improve their and their family’s situation.

It is no secret that there is a strong correlation between education attainment and financial earning power. According to the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the average wage of a woman can increase by up to 25 percent with just one extra year of schooling. However, in many cases women have no choice but to enter the work force after high school due to economic constraints.

Though women have made tremendous gains in education and the workplace, the uphill struggle for complete gender equality persists still. On average, the issue is not that there is a clear discrepancy in school enrollment or wages between men and women; it is the perception of gender roles and capabilities that are buried much deeper in our societal psyche that affect women’s earning power.

Stereotypes about what subjects girls and boys are more likely to exceed in dramatically alter their confidence in ability.

If, for example, girls grow up thinking that they aren’t expected to excel in the realm of hard sciences, then they won’t perform as well as they could, due to their own selffulfilling prophecy. After years of personal development under this subconscious gender programming, it is not unlikely that a woman would see her most “suitable” role as one in a less profitable field, perhaps as a housewife. Furthermore, if that

role is then valued considerably less than an upper management position or a profession in the hard sciences, such as an engineer or a computer programmer, therein lies the gap in earning potential.

When Vira, a hospitality human resources manager from Surabaya, was asked if she thinks that society in Indonesia is conducive to allow women to succeed, she replied, “What hinders women to be successful is the perception of it. Is it being successful in a career or is it being a good mother or homemaker? Everything comes down to a choice.” She argues that the better question to ask is, “Do all women wish to participate in having successful careers? Or is a woman’s wish simply to become a stronger equal partner to her spouse, allowing her to contribute in the household and have the option to either stay home, start a small business or build a career?”

Overall, it is about women gaining the confidence and securing the freedom to assert themselves fully in any given profession, not just the ones that were deemed “fitting” for them. If women are raised to believe that they are equally competent to men in any study or line of work, it doesn’t matter what jobs they choose as long as they are given the same range of choices as men from the start.

Women from low-income families face double the choice barriers: societal stereotypes plus access to quality education. The ROLE Foundation’s Bali WISE initiative aims to close this gender gap by providing disadvantaged women with free training courses in basic work and life skills, hospitality and tourism, and social business development. The ultimate goal is to enable and empower women with the tools to become financially independent and competitive candidates for skilled job positions.

The majority of women who come to Bali WISE are eager for the opportunity to further their education. Veni, a current student of Bali WISE, began working after high school in various part-time jobs. Through her church in Denpasar, she heard about Bali WISE and what kinds of skills the program teaches. Learning English is a big draw for many of the girls because in most jobs it is a major advantage when communicating with clients or guests. “I want to work in the hospitality industry after this and possibly go abroad to travel”, says Veni.

Another student, Wina, grew up in Denpasar where her parents are both merchants for a goods store. Before coming to Bali WISE, Wina had paused her studies at university due to money

constraints and had begun to work alongside her parents.

Restless and yearning to continue her schooling, she found herself eligible to enroll in the Bali WISE courses. “I am excited I get to learn how to cook here because it is something I have always wanted to do,” Wina says in reference to the cooking training offered in the basic work and life skills program. Ultimately, Wina wants to open up her own restaurant some day.

Thanks to Bali WISE’s partnerships with AYANA Resort and Spa, the Conrad Hotel, Alila Villas Uluwatu and the Nusa Dua Beach Hotel, Veni and Wina are able to participate in on-site training at these hotels, where they spend 20 hours a week gaining practical work experience. “Being able to communicate well and show your confidence and strength in thought process” are just a few of the skills taught that are imperative for employment in the hospitality industry, or any industry for that matter, says Vira. “Good life skills will be tools that help them make choices in their careers, [as well as a] strong thought process and sufficient knowledge base that will help them become a stronger support to their family.”

Yearly, 200 Bali WISE graduates learn the skills to earn independent and sustainable incomes resulting in improved living standards and community development. Children of educated women are more likely to become educated, as their mothers are able to make informed life-choices, which includes preparing for their children’s futures. The long-term effects include a decrease of prostitution, human trafficking, HIV/AIDS, unwanted teenage pregnancy and a lower infant mortality rate.

To celebrate International Women’s Day and the local women of Bali, Bali WISE will host a get together on Friday, the 7th of March at their campus in Nusa Dua on Jalan Siligita 22. Staff, volunteers and students, both current and former, will be invited to come and share their experiences with everyone, in the hopes of providing an example of Indonesian women who have been able to advance in their work placements and achieve financial freedom. All are welcome to join the event, with drinks, live music and other entertainment taking place in an effort to raise awareness and gain support for these women. More details are available on the Bali WISE Facebook page and website.
