Occasional Articles From Our Readers

Peduli Alam - Creating Useable Art from Discarded Packaging Divers, snorkelers and other visitors to the Amed coast in Karangasem, Northeast Bali have recently been discovering a rare shopping opportunity that comes with a terrific, albeit bitter-sweet, backstory.

Bali has a major non-organic trash problem. We buy products that are manufactured and sold with too much packaging and all the packaging goes out in the trash. There is no official, island-wide, trash collection, disposal and recycling system so much of our trash is discarded indiscriminately by us or by those who collect it from us. It ends up in fields, rivers and streams.

Rain washes it into the oceans and then the currents and tides bring some of it back to shore onto our beaches. Most of it remains in the oceans, creating pollution and engorging the stomachs of high food chain marine animals that mistake the trash for food, consume it and die.

We cause this. You and me, we are the source of the trash. Our choices are the problem. Every time you accept a plastic straw for your drink instead of sipping from the glass, you add to the problem. Every time you buy a bottle of water instead of refilling your previous bottle, you add to the problem. Every time you discard a cigarette butt, you add to the problem.

Fortunately, there are people on this island who try to fix the problem we have caused and sometimes they come up with very creative and attractive ways of fixing it.

Peduli Alam, Indonesian for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Protect Natureâ&#x20AC;?, was created in 2008 by Charlotte Fredouille as an non-profit NGO specialising in waste collection and management in Amed. Among its many activities, the organisation runs awareness campaigns educating

Many hotels in the area and Through these programmes, they have reached over 1,000 local residents also voluntarily save their sachets to support the schoolchildren, many of whom have joined the volunteer teams Peduli Alam effort. and now contribute their time and energy to the cause.

The bags and other end products of this inspiring venture are Peduli Alam not only raises awareness available at the Peduli Alam shop in Lipah Village.

Tennis Tournament Reveals Young Sporting Talent Young tennis talent was revealed over the last few weekends as the Junior Sports Academy held their annual tournament for 2016.

The comp which spanned three weekends was an opportunity for JSA players to showcase their skill development and marked improvement over the year. 2016’s comp revealed some surprise packages and serious junior talent with several matches seeing tight competition between the players.

JSA Yellow Ball Tennis Tournament former Canggu Classic junior champion, Jake Day came in as the top seed of this year’s event which was held on on September 24th & 25th.

Second seed, Jackson Penny battled on but was defeated by the up and coming Agus Wibawa in the quarter finals.

Agus had four match points at 5-3 but couldn’t close out the match as Jackson, being the fighter that he is, saved four of the match points in this dramatic encounter. He then took the lead and had a match point of his own at 6-5, but Agus had other plans, saving it and taking the match into a tiebreaker. Agus’ consistent display of smart tennis and staying calm under pressure paid off as he prevailed as the winner in the tiebreaker.

Jake Day had little trouble dismissing another young talent, Enzo Gabler in the quarter finals. Enzo recently graduated from Green Ball Level and was experiencing his first Yellow Ball event and managed to make the quarter finals after defeating Leonardo Cisini.

The semi final was a battle between two seniors of the Super Squad...top seed, Jake Day against third seed, Nico Gonzalez. Jake played his offensive hard hitting game whereas Nico was keeping the rallies long in order to put

GINBALI Spreads Its Wings

Following three successful years with previous hosts, Canggu Community School, GINBali travelled to Borneo to team up with Borneo Nature Foundation, Borneo Productions International and the Bina Cita Utama School of Palangkaraya for GINKalimantan 2016.

Bali schools were once again well represented with students from Canggu Community School, Green School and Dyatmika; local students from Kul Kul Connection and four students from Balinese schools including two boys from Jodie O’Shea Orphanage attending the weekend conference.

Jake off his rhythm. In the end, Jake used experience to close out the match.

The only girl who from Super Squad, Annabel de Alessi joined the boys and left no doubt as to her skills as she made her way to the final to play Jake Day after impressive wins over Declan Dainith and the the gutsy Agus Wibawa. Annabel used her consistent and effective game play to her advantage and stormed into the final.

Jake Day was too strong for Annabel de Alessi in the final, winning it 6-1.

Due to minimum participants, the Girls Yellow Ball Comp became a Round Robin event.

Second place went to consistent player, Sydney Eckstein and Rachel Donner was this term’s new champion after a solid display of heavy hitting throughout the tournament.

Matheo Martin’s Green Ball campaign began on Saturday October 1st with a win over Ziggy Kloer in a match up where rallies were long but Matheo used his experience to win in the end. The tournament’s second seed, Jack Mollison stormed into the semis with a win over Hayden Clubley who was the tournament’s surprise package where he defeated his senior, Tommaso Castellari in the first round. He bowed out to the eventual champion Jack Mollison in a very close match with a tight score line, 6-4.

Green ball newcomer, Owen Orr made it to the semi finals and third seeded Felipe Gonzalez defeated Justin Muliastra in an epic match, also making it into the semis.

One of these matches saw Matheo Martin defeat a valiant Owen Orr 6-3 to progress to the final. In the other semi Felipe Gonzalez initially took the lead, but Jack Mollison had other ideas, pulling out a different game plan and winning most of the long rallies by coming to the net and volleying... thus taking the win by 7 games to 5!

Bali’s idyllic island environment and balmy weather lends itself to alfresco dining with friends, and many favour a venue that offers a pleasant view, appealing ambience and somewhere for the kids to kick a ball. Anywhere away from pungent, unpleasant exhausts and the cacophonous drone of Bali’s two wheeled transport of choice is a bonus! Not so easy to find….

In the past, The Canggu Club has been a welcome oasis limited only to members and their guests, however, in recent times they have opened the doors of Bistro C and Sports Bar to all from 5pm weekdays and all day Saturdays

Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.

The final was a battle between the top two seeds. Once again, Jack Mollison was trailing, facing a match point with Matheo’s service, but he truly showed that tennis is a mental game, remained calm, changed tack and took the next three games, winning the final, 7-5. He saved a total of five match points throughout the tournament and won the title!

The third and final weekend saw younger players from the Red and Orange Ball division take to the court in the hope of victory! These slightly smaller battlers were a delight to watch and what they lacked in years was certainly made up for in determination!

The Red Ball Comp was a unisex division and the final match was a battle of two tiny titans in Zoe Penny and Emile Stewart Khan. Emile eventually took line honours with a well deserved win, however Zoe’s smile as she accepted her medal indicated she was proud as punch to be up on the podium. Ptolomy Worth took out the Orange Ball Singles title for the boys over runner up, Jack Simpson, while Grace Hoyles made for a worthy opponent to Winner Saba Hilton in the Orange Ball Girls’ Singles competition.

Competition over for another year, the players resume practice with the Tennis Academy from October 17th in their after school program. For more information on how to join JSA Tennis, email jsa@cangguclub.com Located at Canggu Club. Jalan Canggu Club, Canggu.

Melati Wijsen of Bye Bye Plastic Bags MC’d the Saturday evening event and local talents Sandrayati Fay and Robi Navicula contributed to the musical creations that were performed by students. Local Balinese artist and CCS artist in residence Made Bayak was there to lead the Art Revolution along with Year 11 CCS students, Jas McLennan, Yuri Vianna and Giada Legati who ran sections of their group workshops.

UBUD in October 2017. A GINBali leadership workshop will take place in March 2017 with many of this year’s students reuniting to create stronger regional and community ties to address the goals of the conference and to revisit the idea of making change by starting with ‘just one thing’!

Inspirational presentations from Wildlife Asia, Kids Cut Conflict Palm Oil, Bio Bus and Kul Kul Connection gave students attending the opportunity to see what can happen if you #startwithjustonething. The photo exhibition that launched with GINKalimantan “ I am the Forest” was a stunning success, bringing the participants up close and personal with the creatures that inhabit the forest world and this and the conference were covered by Indonesia’s major media including the BBC, Jakarta Post and Mongabay.

A variety of excursions and cultural exchanges led to a deepening understanding of the global issues that face us all and the power of working together was apparent at all of the workshops and student presentations.

“ I did really find it interesting to learn about all the different initiatives these kids formed.”

The next GINBali event is back on the island, but this time in

Free Entry After 5 and All Weekend - Everyone’s Welcome!

It’d be fair to say that the number of warungs, cafes and restaurants in the Canggu area have doubled in the last twelve months, these new additions showcasing the whole gamut of food offerings from terrible to tasty! Sure, there’s variety aplenty, but one thing many seem to lack is space (to park!!) to relax, and for the kids to have a run around.

If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you!

and Sundays with no day pass required! Now everyone is welcome to enjoy the culinary offerings of alfresco eatery Bistro C as well as watching all of their favourite international sporting meet and matches in air conditioned comfort on the multitude of screens in The Sports Bar. Kids are catered for too as you can sit back, chillax and watch them run around one of the very few fully fenced and beautifully manicured lawns in Bali with complete peace of mind!

Of course the added bonus is that Splash Water Park is right next door, along with a fully equipped fitness centre and lap pool so it’s the perfect opportunity to simply purchase a Day Pass in order to make the most of these extra amenities that are right in front of you, not to mention Strike Ten Pin, Bounce Trampoline and the Tennis Centre a mere buggy ride away.

The other bonus is that there is always something happening at The Canggu Club so you’ll never be starved

Schools from Singapore, Java and South Korea also attended the 2016 conference and some of them had this to say:

“Meetings kids from other schools was super fun too, since I got to hear a wide variety of opinions.”

These are the seeds conferences like GIN plant for the future and we hope to share more of them with you soon.

Directions:

Polenta lends itself to so many variations - you can eat it soft like porridge or let it set up and then sauté the outside into a crunchy crust. I used dried porcini mushrooms in this one but it would be just as delicious with dried shitake, available in any supermarket. Grilling or broiling the corn gives a bit of a smoky flavor but you can also just steam it to cut your cooking time. Top the polenta with your favorite sauce or some creamy cheese like gorgonzola. Yum!

Polenta with Grilled Corn, Garlic, and Porcini Serves 4-6 Ingredients: - 20 gr. dried porcini mushrooms (buy at Dijon) or use dried shitake - 1 cup soaking water from the mushrooms - 1 cup polenta cornmeal (buy at Dijon) - 1 1/4 cup water - 2 cups milk - 2 cloves garlic, pressed - 3 Tbl. mixed fresh herbs such as basil, thyme, tarragon, sage (if you use dried herbs cut the amount in half) - 1/2 tsp. salt - 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper - 3/4 cup grilled or broiled corn kernels, removed from the ear

In a small bowl soak the dried mushrooms in 1 cup of hot water for 10 minutes. When they’re soft, strain the liquid off into a pot big enough to hold all the ingredients. Set the mushrooms aside. Now add the polenta, milk and water to the pot. Stir this well and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, stirring constantly for 3 minutes.

Add the garlic, mixed herbs, salt and pepper and give it a good stir. Add the grilled corn kernels, soaked mushrooms, and sun dried tomatoes. Continue to simmer over a low heat stirring frequently so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot. If it get too thick add a bit of hot water until the polenta falls from the spoon.

Once the polenta is cooked, stir in the butter until melted. You can eat it as it is immediately or pour it into a buttered pie plate or a large oven dish and let it set up. It should be about 2 cm thick.

You can store the polenta in the fridge at this point and finish it the next day or wait for it to set up and cut it into squares or wedges and fry in a little olive oil until browned on each side.

Top the hot pieces with your favorite crumbled soft cheese, or your favorite yogurt or tomato sauce or eat it as it is.

Buon Appetito!

Restaurant Review

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

Quality Chinese!

Golden Monkey is the real thing.

It presents quality Chinese cuisine in Ubud.

Not Indonesian Chinese, but the traditional cuisine of Canton, as experienced in Hong Kong. Dim sum, roast meats, soups and mains. Stir-fried, poached, roasted, steamed and deep fried.

They do not have the usual Chinese restaurant menu, with 100 or more items, but rather a carefully selected menu that is truly representative of this ancient cuisine.

We ‘gweilos’ [foreign devils] all love Chinese food, although very few of us eat it the way they do. We stick to our entrée, soup and main in normal western sequence. The more experienced share a number of different dishes of varying flavours and styles. The most adventurous even use chopsticks. Whereas the ethnic Chinese will normally order a number of main dishes, all at the same time, including a soup, and eat a small portion from each, interspersed with rice from the hand-held bowl. The end of a classic Chinese dinner is when a plate of Fried Rice is served and eaten.

At Golden Monkey everyone is catered for. You can start with Dim Sum or entrees, or a mix of both.

Har Gow is one of the most recognizable dim sum, a prawn dumpling. Other dumplings on this menu include Siu Mai [pork and prawn], Xiao Long Bao and Shanghai pork soup dumplings. Then there is my favourite dumpling, the Jiaozi, which in China is normally only prepared during the various festive seasons. It consists of minced pork and chives, and is pan seared after an initial steaming. This is the dumpling on which the Japanese base their Gyoza.

Dim Sum is all about dumplings and steam buns. The small BBQ Pork Buns are excellent, as is the Custard and Salted Egg, which is one of those dishes that actually taste far better than they sound. Also in that section of the menu are DeepFried Prawn Wontons and Duck Spring Rolls as well as a Braised Cabbage Roll, served with oyster sauce. No Dim Sum menu would be complete without those spicy Chicken Feet, an acquired taste, at best!

The entree list is headed by a few international favourites.

The Drunken Chicken has been poached in Chinese wine, and as usual is served cold. Sang Choy Bow is a Hong Kong special. Originally minced pigeon was used but internationally chicken is considered more acceptable. Golden Monkey however uses duck meat, it is combined with hoisin and served in a lettuce cup, eaten with the hands.

Sometimes it is the simplest dish that takes you by surprise.

Many years ago, back in my London IBM days, I used any celebration as an excuse to visit Robert Carrier’s wonderful restaurant in North East London. I was amazed by how many other tables always ordered the Cucumber Salad. I could not think of anything that sounded more boring, that was until I gave in to my curiosity and ordered it on one occasion, sensational! Great chefs can do amazing things with simple ingredients. At Golden Monkey such a dish exists. It has the

less than inviting title of Crispy Cucumber. Long, thin cucumber fingers are first pickled, then iced. They are served with a ‘wow’ sesame sauce. It is the perfect nibbler whilst awaiting all your main dishes.

Soups can be the classic Yu Zhu [double boiled chicken] or a Hot & Sour Seafood Soup. Corn Soup is with crab or minced chicken. The Wanton Soup is what in Australia has the very weird title of a Short Soup [Long Soup being with noodles].

BBQ Meats are a feature of any Cantonese menu, and here they are superb. Some dishes can be taken as a part of a general meal but some diners just enjoy a complete meal of BBQ. A wonderful addition to any meal combination is Char Siew, a dish that disappointed me on numerous occasions elsewhere in Bali, and these days even in the food courts of Singapore which once upon a time, but no longer, were outstanding. Too often it is served dry and very finely sliced.

At Golden Monkey it excels as a standout dish. The full strips of pork loin have been first marinated traditionally [5 spice, red fermented bean curd, soy, hoisin and of course honey] before being roasted in the oven. They are served whole, thickly cross sliced, perfect!

Pork Belly is something that has of recent years appeared on many Bali menus, obviously as a result of the low food cost.

Invariably, for me, it is virtually inedible, just fat and rubbery skin. Here it is one of the stars of the menu [pictured]. The slow cooking process has removed all of the fat and the skin is 100% crisp, so crisp you can break it! It is served with two dipping sauces: hoisin and honey mustard. Scattered roasted peanuts on the plate remind you of the way that all time Cantonese classic of Suckling Pig is served. Show your dexterity and pick up the peanuts with your chopsticks.

The Roast Duck and Roast Chicken are both with super tender meat and very crisp skin, as only the Chinese seem to be able to do. The all time classic dish of Chinese dining is not from Canton, but from the now named Beijing Peking Duck. As usual it is a two stage process. The bird is presented at the table, then Maitre d’ Wayan dons the white gloves, carves just under the skin which he then places on small Mandarin pancakes, along with a dab of plum sauce, rolls them and presents them to you. One of life’s great taste treats! The body meat is then taken away and prepared as another course for you. You select from Black Pepper, Kung Pao or minced for San Choy Bao.

There are noodle dishes for the lone diner and a variety of special fried rice combinations and a couple of interesting desserts. Mango Sago with pomelo and vanilla ice cream, Avocado Pudding with an Oreo crumble and the very unique Gui Ling Lao, a bowl of chilled herbal jelly topped with honey.

Golden Monkey is a welcome up-market addition to the Ubud dining scene, and busy since opening to prove it. The restaurant’s very professional management is evident, both front of house and in the kitchen.

Mains include all the standard dishes, all prepared individually and to order. One of the commonest meal requests is often Sweet & Sour Pork. The very tender pork pieces are lightly battered then stir-fried with onion, capsicum slices and cashews. The sweet and sour sauce is just that, not like the too-sweet version often served in the west. It is very good.

Another common dish that is also given that too-sweet treatment elsewhere is Lemon Chicken. Here the pieces of chicken are served separate to the lemon sauce, which you add from an accompanying small jug.

Beef can be with black pepper or stir-fried with spring onions and ginger. There is also an excellent Kung Pao Chicken [just called Stir-fried Chicken on the menu]. Seafood dishes include fish from the stir-fry or the clay pot, Garlic Prawns and Sauteed Scallops. The vegetarian dishes include Mushrooms XO, Braised Tofu, Garlic Greens and Spinach with that sauce the Chinese call ‘superior’, plus there was that Cabbage Roll on the entree list. However star of the veggies is definitely their Eggplant Clay Pot, eggplant and tofu braised in Szechuan sauce.

Update KaBar is a German restaurant and beer house. I have always been surprised that there are so few German restaurants in Bali, as many German nationals visit or live here.

KaBar is one of a string of small restaurants in front of The Bali Garden Hotel [parking is permissible in the hotel grounds]. A slice of meat loaf [leberkase] topped with a fried egg and onion sauce makes a great breakfast, brunch or lunch. Think German cuisine and you thing ‘sausage’. There are a variety of German and Swiss sausages available here, either to snack on, piece by piece, or to enjoy as a full meal; Cured & Smoked with pickled gherkins, Grilled Curry sausage, Thuringer Pork Bratwurst or Sausage & Sauerkraut Fritters with honeymustard dip. Other snacks to nibble on whilst sipping your beer of choice include Pretzels with cream cheese & pepper dip, Fried Brie Cheese with cranberry sauce or Brats in a Bun, with mustard. Heartier offerings can be a Goulash Soup or Frikadel [German meatballs], that are served with mustard. Easily the most popular dish from central Europe is the Schnitzel, claimed by Germany, Austria and Switzerland as their own although the original Wiener Schnitzel is pure Vienna. At KaBar your schnitzel can be of chicken or pork [pictured].

Good taste and great value! Another great central European dish is their Lentil Stew, with slices of smoked sausage and potato making a very hearty dish indeed as is the Platter of Smoked Fish [marlin, tuna and rollmop] with horseradish cream. Interesting side dishes can be Kartoffelsalat, the original German potato salad, Caramelized Beetroot Chips with coriander or a Cucumber Salad with dill. KaBar is a place to relax and enjoy your food and drink, simple and great value.

Graze has introduced ‘hot stone cooking’ to their already comprehensive menu. On offer is steak, fish, pawns or kebabs. All arrive on a hot stone platter, partly pre-cooked. You decide how well cooked you want them done [rare, medium or well-done], removing them from the hot stones when you are satisfied. If you are not an experienced chef then you can always cheat a little bit by cutting off the corners to check on the progress. Only the vegetables that are also served hot are accompanying on the stones, all the other extras [salad, etc] are on an adjoining tray. The exercise usually provides much fun and laughter from a small group, all showing their chef expertise! Graze is at the street front of the Maya Sanur, on Jln. Danau Tamblingan in Sanur.

Grand Lucky Supermarket on Sunset Road, appears to be the only location that will fully celebrate Halloween in Bali. Halloween is the modern day version of Eve of All Hallows Day, an ancient ritual in medieval England to honour and remember the dead, saints [hallows] martyrs, etc. The ‘trick or treating’ so popular in America for this evening is a throw back to pagan times. At Grand Lucky they are holding pumpkin carving competitions for the children. Any who wish to enter this competition must go there either Friday 28th or Saturday 29th from 11.00 a.m. to do the carving. Bring your own pumpkin and tools or you can purchase them there. The pumpkins remain on show for the customers to vote on. The official judging will be on the night, Monday 31st, when all the action begins at 6.00 p.m.

Many prizes on offer so come in costume and trick or treat with the supermarket staff..

Diwali [or deepawali] is the Indian Hindu ‘Festival of Lights’. It is a celebration of good over evil, light over darkness. A happy holiday it is celebrated during a broad period of October-November. These are the details of such celebration in Bali during this time.

L Hotel, Jln. Raya Petitenget, celebrates Diwali at their poolside Love Corner. They offer a variety of set dinners.

HECTOR’S That Other Kuta It’s quieter and rather less crowded than Kuta Bali, though it has grown a little. There’s something that resembles a main street with an Indomaret supermarket and a few other junior emporiums. The warungs along the beach, those symbols of entry-level Indonesian tourism entrepreneurship, where once you could sit and watch the waves over a cold beer, have been cleared away in the future interests of the rather grand Mandalika development. But Kuta Lombok is great at the moment if you’re not looking for crowded bars packed with people out for a good time.We weren’t when we spent a lovely week there earlier this month. It’s been a favourite place for a decade and a half, since we first stayed at the then nearly new Novotel Lombok in 2001 on a side trip from Bali. We’ve made a point of returning now and then, when we need some down time.

So, we did basically nothing except sit on the Novotel’s pristine beach in a berugak – think balé – watching the tide coming in or going out and occasionally dipping in for a float.

Except we ate, rather more than is our custom, but that was nice too because as part of the Accor chain the Novotel does alimentary things in a delightfully semi-French fashion. It was so good that the Diary didn’t even really mind that the Wi-Fi struggled to reach the beach. The fruit sate sticks for elevenses and the mid-afternoon cakes got there. In the rooms and the rest of the resort the Wi-Fi’s fine. That modern hazard – being obstructed by off-in-fairyland wanderers holding their smart phones and staring at them – must be dealt with.

Just learn the words for “excuse me” in, say, 10 of the most widely spoken languages among Novotel guests, and you’ll generally get by; even if it’s sometimes tempting to use the full suite all at once.

Our morning walk program was a talking point. As in Bali, no one walks anywhere. They hop on their scooters to idle 50 metres up the road. Walking for recreation or in the interests of the arteries appears to be something only mad bules do.

Several times lovely people even suggested that perhaps we were jogging. We dropped in on Senggigi – after Cakranegara for fabric shopping – before the R&R in the south, and had dinner with local identity Peter Duncan and his wife Wiwik Pusparini at Taman restaurant, and stayed overnight in a nice room at Howard Singleton’s beachside establishment The Office, at the Art Market.

Hurry Up and Wait Our return from Lombok was not without misadventure. We’d flown to Lombok with Wings and that went swimmingly, even if it did include the usual diddling about doing circles over the Wallace Line to make the flight worth making, or perhaps longer. We flew back with Lion, a little tardily, for very lateadvised “operational reasons”, that class of excuse that brooks no inquiry. Just to add pedas to panas, first we were to fly only three hours late, and then it turned out to be nearly five.

Flight delays were not confined to Lion Air. They resulted from regular closure of Ngurah Rai to all except emergency landings for evenings from Oct. 2 to Dec. 26, as notified by international aviation regulators. The runway needs a bit of work and this is being done, if the contractors bother to turn up. The point is, surely, that since this is a lengthy term of mandatory closure, airlines should have adjusted their schedules accordingly. Well, never mind. This is Indonesia. Once, long ago when Lombok’s airport was still at Selaparang in Mataram, we were also delayed, though not for quite so long, by an apparently unforeseen event at Ngurah Rai. They told us then that the president was on the runway.

Lion had been on our personal No Fly paper since 2013, when the flight crew on one of its Boeing 737-800s selected a dubious preference for the briny over the somewhat firmer properties of tar-macadam and landed in Jimbaran Bay instead. We think the airline has since then secured the services of flight crews equipped to recognise runways and their benefits and who will remember to adjust autopilot parameters in time. But on this occasion it would have been tempting to swim home.

So Sad The deaths of nine people – three of them children – in the collapse of the suspension bridge linking Nusa Lembongan with its smaller sister island, Ceningan, on Oct. 16 are tragic. What’s also tragic is the sequence of events leading up to the deadly occurrence.

Duty of care is not a term – or a principle for that matter – that resonates in Indonesia. The islands are in Klungkung re-

gency (as is the larger island of Nusa Penida) but the district government’s divan is in Semarapura on Bali’s mainland, where it apparently relies on karma to run things. It was Full Moon, a sacred time for Balinese Hindus. A large devotional procession was crossing the bridge when its cables snapped and the walkway collapsed into the narrow channel that separates the islands. A sign warning that the bridge was unsafe for large numbers of people at one time had been put up two days beforehand. Either this was not read, or it was read and ignored, as most such notices are.

But if the bridge was unsafe in overloaded conditions – and plainly it was: cables rarely snap without provocation – then the authorities should have ensured it wasn’t overloaded.

Bali’s traditional system of village guards (Pecalang) is ideally equipped to manage crowds and ensure compliance. They don’t miss a trick at Nyepi: show a light for an instant on Silent Night and you’re cactus. Some lateral thinking – actually, any thinking – by the regency government appears to be rather desperately needed. The bridge collapsed once before, in 2013, in a bit of a fresh breeze.

One Word, Seven Letters, Starts with ‘B’ Elizabeth Henzell of Villa Kitty wrote a dispiriting note on her Facebook on Oct. 16. It speaks for itself so here it is: “I am so disgusted with humans that feel their need is more than someone else’s! How do they know! Villa Kitty’s tireless admin assistant, Metha, has had her Samsung phone stolen – from Villa Kitty! Who would do that? Who would steal from (a) a yayasan/animal welfare centre or (b) someone who works for a yayasan/animal welfare centre! We have had food stolen, my phone has been stolen, money stolen, medical supplies, by people with NO morals! I am truly sick of it!” We’re all sick of it, Elizabeth. It’s that other real Bali, the one that doesn’t rate a mention in the feel good fluff stuff.

Bali-based British photographer Michael Johnsey, whose faces, sunsets and skyscapes particularly engage The Diary, won deserved acclaim – and 20 per cent of sale prices for the charity Solemen Indonesia – at the opening night of his exhibition Life in Bali, at Bridges in Ubud on Oct. 15.

It was a packed house for the event, he tells us. It’s such a shame we weren’t there. The marathon seven-hour return wait-and-flight to Bali from Lombok the previous evening did terrible things to the schedule at The Cage. Johnsey notes: “What a great opening event. A packed house. Thank you all at Bridges for making it such a great success. Life In Bali is off to a pretty good start.” His photographic works are on display at Bridges, so if you’re in Ubud get along there and have a look. It’ll be worth it, we guarantee.

Lash Out Those who apparently desire that Indonesia should become Untustan (untu is camel in Bahasa Indonesia) have been having a field day lately. Aside from public canings for promiscuity and other elective activity defined as sinful in Aceh – caning is a legitimate penalty under Aceh’s Sharia law – Jakarta governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama has been the target of mobs over his alleged blasphemy against Islam. Blasphemy is an offence under Indonesian law.

C/BT/G-14 Sept 16

The governor, usually known by his Indonesian familiar name Ahok, isn’t a Muslim. He’s a Christian, a Chinese Indonesian, and appears to be doing quite a good job as civic leader of Indonesia’s capital city. There’s more socio-political polemic than inter-religious dispute in his current problems.

A quatrain by the mediaeval Islamic scholar Omar Khayyám comes to mind: “As far as you can avoid it, do not give grief to anyone. Never inflict your rage on another. If you hope for eternal rest, feel the pain yourself; but don’t hurt others.” It’s a shame that this useful aide-memoire is never handed out with the nasi bunkus.

His best friends, aside from our group, are his parents, and he won’t go out and socialize with other people because he’s afraid to. We like him, but the limitations he places on his own life make interacting with him in any meaningful way almost impossible.

Question: I have a friend who is driving me crazy. He is in his mid-twenties, has graduated from university, lives at home with his parents completely free of charge, and is generally a good person, if sheltered. I’ve had to explain to him why he can’t make “she-male” jokes, and while he doesn’t make any effort to think critically about the media he’s consuming, at least when you point out he’s doing something offensive, he stops and doesn’t do it again.

15

out of whack as the word “cheap” implies, it’s time to seriously re-examine the friendship.

Give yourself and your friend group a break from worrying about this person’s eccentricities, and give him a break from feeling judged and pressured. Convert your friendship with him into mini doses, in which his eccentricities may seem more loveable, or at least more tolerable, and stop trying to fix him.

Question: I rent cars for a living and recently had a customer who I knew through his boss. Even though I normally ask for a contract with a car rental, this guy - according to his boss – didn’t want to sign a contract. I refused to rent to him at first, but his boss asked politely and said he would help talk to the guy if there was any problem with the car. When the car came back to me dented, I texted his boss to ask if he would help speak to the guy about repairing the damage, and the boss asked me to come to his place of business.

Before I could explain anything there, the guy said lots of nasty things, telling me not to disturb his boss about that car, and that he (the guy) is the one who rented the vehicle.

Instead of apologizing, he wanted me to apologize.

I did my best to explain myself, but a long argument ensued.

In the end he said he was sorry, but it didn’t make me happy.

Rather, I am sad with the way I handled him and the situation. The question “What did I do wrong?” continues to linger in my mind. Why can’t I just take it easy? What happened with me? Please let me know. Thank you.

Dr. ZZ: The story you shared is about boundaries – the

place where you begin, and where the other person ends.

Willingly renting a car to someone without a contract puts you in harm’s way. An interaction with room for variables leaves open the way for variables, and whatever can happen is apt to happen.

In truth, people are going to betray and disappoint. That’s what people do. Not all the time, of course, but sometimes we expect others not to break their word, or we do not expect them to act a certain way, and then they do. Probably out of fear, they fail to communicate fully about the situation.

At times, to varying degrees, we all are guilty of that.

The trick is to let others be human, to see that they are just being “unconscious.” Once you understand this as the way of the world, you won’t need to take another person’s betrayal so personally -- though you may well choose not to rent a car without a contract again.

This is how we learn. The logical mind wants to fit life into a neatly wrapped box instead of allowing for the inevitability of human fluctuation. In the end, the most intelligent idea is to extend yourself to others only as far as you are willing to absorb the risk. There is no one you need to trust in this world besides yourself and God. Trust yourself to land on your feet and trust God to provide you with a plan. This is one of the most effective mottos I know to life by. If others come through for you, celebrate and enjoy. If they fail to come through, then you are handling it.

The positive purpose of anger is to motivate yourself to reclaim your own power. You cannot change anyone outside yourself; anger is a signal that you have given yourself away in some regard. Anger allows each of us to tighten the reins on our own generosity of spirit, and to pay closer attention to taking take of ourselves in the future.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

by Bill Dalton

Seen and Unseen by Russell Darnley Seen and Unseen is a collection of 29 stories tracing three generations of Australians engaged with Asia. Half the stories are set in Indonesia in the period 1984 to 2002. Many focus on cultural differences, while still others take on weightier matters of global significance.

Environmental destruction in Bali, Kalimantan and Sumatra and a wistful nostalgia for what has been lost are other dominant themes.

Born in 1947, author Russell Darnley grew up in Sydney with a seafaring father who gave him an interest in what lay beyond. As a young adult he travelled the world and discovered his interests lay in South East Asia. With a background in education and tourism in Indonesia, and a long familiarity with the country, Darnley takes full advantage of the trust his informants have placed in him to spin a good yarn. He is equipped with an acute awareness about the country not found in casual travelers or many travel writers.

This entertaining and enlightening book of essays, travelogue and creative non-fiction spanning 100 years is a work of naked and unflinching honesty. The subject matter perfectly compliments the spirit of this year’s UWRF whose dictum is Tat Tvam Asi, translated as ‘I am you, you are me.” Darnley’s experiences help us understand the lives of others and recognize our common humanity. As the writer himself puts it, “Seeking meaning across cultures we each absorb a little of the other and enter a new cultural space where I am you and you are me.”

As the title suggests, the Balinese belief that our world is an interaction of Sekala (The Seen) and Niskala (The Unseen) profoundly influences this work which often explores intangible meanings, knowledge, laws and powers at work, whether they be spirits in the rainforests of Borneo or the graveyards of Bali, the intense rivalry and jealousy in a Balinese kampong, the spiritual significance of blood spilled at Balinese cockfights, the invisible maneuverings of politicians or secret machinations to involve Australia’s military in Vietnam. *The Dream is based around the writer’s own naivety in the early days of his life in Bali as he sets up an interdisciplinary field study program for Australian students in Ubud in 1984 with cultural surprises, mystical undercurrents, sharp bends and turns pointing to a deeper story not yet untold. Often occupying an intercultural space between Indonesia and Australia, this piece is a good example his characters confronting social dilemmas and acute misunderstandings.

This is Darnley’s writing at its most humorous and fascinating. *Magic, Polygamy and Triangles, a philosophical conversation with a French anthropologist, is about a smorgasbord of subjects from polygamy, black magic to secret relationships and a love triangle that takes place in a fictional Balinese village that could be Ubud or any number of other villages. *The Thief and the Angels explores the challenges faced by a small family when their stay in paradise is interrupted by a devastating theft, a family crisis and a lucky encounter with Australian nurses who help their seriously dehydrated toddler. *Beyond Bhoma’s Powers looks at the critical function of the Balinese guardian god, son of Vishnu and Ibu Pertiwi (Mother Earth). The story ends with the writer’s frustration and bewilderment that Bhoma’s transformative power is not enough to stem the environmental degradation that has afflicted the island in recent times. *Balikpapan: Looking Backwards and Forwards explores the port city’s wartime history and the ecological disaster ushered in by the Suharto regime. Enthusiasm gives way to pessimism as the writer is taken on a rainforest tour and shocked by the rampant exploitation carried out unchecked by the logging industry. *The River Guide shows us how the rivers of Kalimantan are not only the main conduits for the movement of people and goods, but also unexpectedly serve as corridors of culture, language and ideas as a riverboat takes passengers

to Longiram, the last navigable outpost of the Mahakam River. *Siberut and the Simple Life is an account of a boat trip up the turbid Rerekit River from Muara Siberut to the isolated traditional houses (uma) of the endangered people of the Mentawai Islands. The writer bears witness to the stark environmental devastation taking place on Siberut Island during the Suharto era. *The Pig and the Cockfight explores the inner workings and intercultural misunderstandings of a crowded Balinese desa where a complex hierarchy and conflicting social and spiritual taboos dictate the behavior of its members, causing small problems to quickly escalate. One of the book’s best stories, it reveals the writer’s modesty and sensitivity.

*A follow up story, Kanda Empat: The Four Siblings begins with an urgent and mysterious mission to carry a baby’s placenta to the father’s village of origin, the sort of errand that can only happen in Bali. Like many others, this story is full of subtle social interactions and unseen micro-emotions between family members, neighbors and Westerners. *Kampayne: The Campaign Procession opens on the streets of central Java’s capital Semarang as the writer joins a raucous carnival-like motorcycle rally at the height of the paranoia that typified the Howard era, the differences between Australia and Indonesia amplified through fear propagated by the Australia’s mainstream news media. *A companion piece Unspoken Realities chronicles the Eurocentric, triumphalist, anti-Indonesian and racist leanings of the polarizing Howard government, which reduced the footprint of Radio Australia’s Indonesian broadcasts and saw a huge and adverse shift in Australia’s complicated relationship with Indonesia.

*Pemilihan Umum: The General Election finds us in the midst of a grand and noisy Mardi Gras-like political procession in Jakarta in June 1999. Suppressed for decades under Suharto’s New Order regime, this theatrical and euphoric burst of energy celebrates Indonesia’s first democratic election since 1955. *An Unusual Kind of Thunder is a riveting firsthand account of the writer’s experiences in the wards of the Sanglah Hospital in the aftermath of the October 2002 Bali Bombing as he deals with the dazed victims and their relatives. In a stupefying act of civic duty, the writer agrees to work as a translator for attending doctors, staff and victims.

He describes the gallant efforts of foreign and Indonesian volunteers as they attempt to take care of the needs of suffering and dying patients amidst the chaos, confusion and fear. This and the following story are by far the most emotionally powerful in the book.

C/E/I-11 May 16

*In the aptly named The Charnel House, Darnley volunteers to work in the hospital’s morgue, an experience seared indelibly into his mind. He helps identify victims and collect their personal belongings in a room full of charred rotting body parts, melting ice and the stench of death. Darnley interviews members of an Australian rugby team who recall their rescue efforts 12 years previously as they pulled the shocked and injured from raging flames. Reading this, one can well understand why it took him so long to get over the pain and profound isolation before he was able to tell his tale.

Halloween Costume Party (29 October) Halloween is great fun for the kids with lots of traditional activities to be done including trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns, telling scary stories and watching horror movies. It is also a great opportunity to find a Halloween costume which can range from the very scary to fun outfits depending on your mood or interest. Pirates and princesses are firm favourites with the little ones. The best scary costume I have seen is a zombie looking like something straight out of The Walking Dead. Halloween costumes are available to rent for the afternoon but it is always fun to create a costume. Games and entertainment are featured throughout the afternoon with the usual snacks and drinks. The programme starts with Halloween themed face painting followed by a costume parade then a performance by the very talented Skoebi-do kids with dancing games and then a trick or treat and treasure hunt. To end the day a balloon twist, snack time and a Halloween Pinata. It is going to be a great day for the little ones so come along and enjoy some fun together with the small people in the community.

Ubud Readers and Writers Festival (26 – 30 October) I am going to briefly mention the Ubud Readers and Writers Festival as it is one of Bali’s huge success stories. The festival is a big celebration of literature and the arts which unites the community. Indonesian and international writers, speakers, artists and activists come together to share their work, thoughts and ideas. Janet DeNeefe is the co-founder of the foundation which was founded shortly after the Bali bomb and is recognised for her tremendous work within the community. There is a range of Indonesian and international writers this year too many to mention but all who have made major contributions to the world of literature. There are workshops, food, children and youth programmes, book launghes, film programmes free events, art exhibitions and fringe events. There are a range of prices and ticket types to choose from. With all the technology, note pads, phones developing that passion for reading is so important. It all starts with children. I often hear people say, ‘well I don’t like reading’ or ‘I don’t have time to read’. Festivals like this are a great motivator and starting point to leap into the world of reading and writing. Time to read is a priority! Doors open, journeys begin, adventures happen and the world truly opens up. Tickets are available on line. The website is explicit and comprehensive and details of locations and times are listed.

BA Feature Article Maritime Indonesia – A neo-Srivijayan Vision ParacelsusAsia muses on Indonesia’s once and future maritime greatness with hopes for Bali as a natural cruising centre. There’s a way to go for both he ¿nds.

Living as I do some 200 metres from the beach at the Western end of Sanur for over 20 years the changes in the area have been signi¿cant but have crept up as if by stealth, until every so often something provokes a sharp reality update.

Back in the early 1990s Indonesia’s colourful Tourism Minister Joop Ave decreed a Red Brick Road running the entire length of Sanur ’s beachfront. It was quickly followed by an ill-advised causeway to Serangan Island and its enlargement by some 600 hectares of reclaimed land, still awaiting its dynasticinspired and lamentable development to feature hotels, a golf course and marina. The inevitable result of this travesty-tobe was the rapid disappearance of Sanur’s beaches.

Already much diminished and scarred by brutal remedial groynes from an earlier era, Sanur’s beach now threatened to go the way of Candidasa. Enter the Japanese, who at vast cost created a series of scalloped bays with occasional piers topped by unlikely pagodas, intended to impede further erosion. It seems to have worked.

The Western end of Sanur, is now bound by a new road along the river marking the farthest Eastward extent of the sadly diminished mangrove forest, completing the process of residential gentri¿cation with a large reclamation project adjacent to the Mertasari temple, providing a civic recreation and raucous concert area with hotels scheduled to follow.

There it stands, at least for now, until more pro¿table ventures emerge to put a stop to the fun. Clearly there are big plans in store for the Western end of Sanur.

A haunting and rather mournful touch was added to this seascape when an ocean-going tugboat or supply vessel wound up on the reef, and languished there for about 2 years as it disintegrated slowly, before vanishing entirely.

There is a powerful strain of marine melancholy that affects us where the land meets the sea, when you remove the fun of the seaside and allow one’s thoughts to dwell on its starker realities. The Portuguese call the feeling saudade and their haunting fado music de¿nes it; Carmen da Silva singing “Lisboa Antigua” or Elgar’s Sea Pictures and (particularly apt for a tropical setting) “Where corals lie”, sung by an impressive imperial contralto like Janet Baker will instantly bring on an attack of saudade, the melancholy nostalgia that requires no discernible cause and which contemplating the ocean so often evokes in us.

The deeps have music soft and low When winds awake the airy spry, It lures me, lures me on to go And see the land where corals lie.

Edward Elgar, Sea Pictures s No.4, “Where corals lie”, words

by Richard Garnett.

Lost in such thoughts, on rounding the cape I looked up to see the roads between Mertasari and Serangan to be struck by a sight from a bygone age. There must have been over 200 vessels of one sort or another moored in the channel.

Bugis schooners, high-pooped and massive, even a threemasted HMS Bounty lookalike, wooden sailing vessels of all sizes with a liberal sprinkling of modern yachts, motor cruisers and catamarans.

Probably a development twenty years in the making, I saw it as if for the ¿rst time. Apart from the obvious growth in recreational yachting and extended cruises for tourists to the islands East of Bali I was forcibly reminded of the maritime nature of so much of Indonesia and its people. A story that stretches back well over millennia; that long predates and co-exists alongside historically recent Javanese over-lordship and which today, looks set to regain its central role in the nation’s destiny.

The feeling is reinforced every time I travel to the airport or Nusa Dua via the new Benoa toll road passing serried ranks of large motorized ¿shing boats moored along the quayside.

Whatever decision is made over the execrable Benoa Bay development, the fate of the bay and the harbor is alas, effectively sealed. Inevitably its shores will be gobbled up with residential and maritime/industrial development, the only question being at what ecological and social cost?

Historically, in the interests of national cohesion, most Indonesians have gone along with a centralised political and cultural Javanese hegemony that has held sway for some 700 years and was co-opted by the Dutch colonisers. And yet, for 500 years before that, South East Asia was dominated by a maritime empire of immense wealth based on Palembang and founded on city ports and trade, not territorial imperium. The Chinese, the Japanese, Indians, Persians and Arabians, all came to do business with a Srivijayan- led confederation amounting to empire, which held sway until the mid-14th Century and which, while open to foreign inÀuence, did not fall prey to external domination.

A powerful land-based Majapahit empire then followed, more or less encompassing Indonesia’s current boundaries, but ceding its maritime dominance in pursuit of territorial power.

An unfortunate hiatus ¿lled within a few short decades, not by the Chinese - who had dominated the region through their support of a Malaccan Sultanate based on Central Sumatra and peninsular Malaysia - but from an altogether unexpected direction. The new and powerful seaborne threat that arrived with the Portuguese followed by the Dutch ushered in a humiliating chapter of foreign dominance throughout the Indonesian archipelago that was to last for nigh on 400 years.

The historical lesson is that the people of the Indonesia, however culturally strong on land they may be, are prey to marginalization or foreign domination if they ignore their geographical situation and turn their backs on the sea.

Indeed it is strange that they would do so, for the sea is in their genes. Since pre-history the proto-Malays or Austronesians (their linguistic group) are unquestionably some of the greatest navigators the world has seen. You can forget Magellan, Christopher Columbus, Leif Eriksson or Captain Cook - they are not in the same oceanic league.

Starting around 7,000 years ago the Austronesians, who lived in the coastal areas of South Eastern China, began to emigrate across the sea to Taiwan, where they are regarded as the original people to this day. Over the ensuing millennia they island-hopped southward, populating the Philippines and onward into what is now Borneo and Indonesian Kalimantan.

At this point various of them turned East along the Northern coast of Papua New Guinea. They didn’t linger or leave much trace due to the well-established and ¿erce inhabitants they met along the way. Instead they kept right on going, exiting Papua and heading on out into the South Paci¿c. They sailed onward and Eastward until about one thousand years ago they had populated Tahiti, the Marquesas, Hawaii and eventually New Zealand. It is almost certain they ventured as far as the coast of South America, but did not stay. How they managed to navigate such vast distances and how they imagined they would ¿nd land remain some of the greatest oceanic mysteries that exist to this today. These people were of course to become better known as the Polynesians.

Their cousins, who had continued Southward and Westward to occupy the entire Indonesian archipelago founding great empires; the Srivijaya, the Khmer and Champa, along with some of the world’s greatest monuments like Borobudur and Angkor Wat. Having populated the Indonesian islands they sailed North back to the Asian mainland occupying and dominating peninsular Malaysia, Cambodia and what is now Southern Vietnam. About the same time the Polynesians were making their epic voyage to discover New Zealand the Indonesian branch of the family was setting sail from Sumatra, to navigate the Indian Ocean and make landfall in Madagascar, where they speak a variant of Malay to this day.

With this degree of salt in their ancestral blood is it any wonder that whoever owns the boat, from that day to this, often as not - it is a lascar crew that have sailed the ship safe home to port.

Indonesia’s geography has a lot going for it. It comprises over 17,500 islands of which some 6,000 are populated, stretched in an arc over 3,200 miles between the Indian and Paci¿c oceans to the West and East, the South East Asian mainland and Australia to its immediate North and South. A population of 250 million makes it the world’s fourth largest country.

It is not only immensely rich in natural resources (oil, gas, coal, gold, silver, nickel, tin, copper and bauxite), its fertile soil produces major crops: palm oil, coconut, rubber, coffee, tea, tobacco and of course spices.

The country’s riches and its geography, however, have proved both a blessing and a curse. Abundant wealth has attracted foreign incursions. Prior to the arrival of the Europeans that meant the Indians and the Chinese, but which in modern times has expanded to include the Chinese, Portuguese, the Dutch, and the Japanese. The Dutch overstayed, colonising the country for nigh on 350 years.

Indonesia’s strategic location makes it one of the world’s most important maritime choke points for shipping, on a par with the Suez and Panama canals or Straits of Ormuz in the Persian Gulf. No less than a quarter of all world trade passes through the Malacca Straits with ¿ve other choke points in the passage between Asia and the Indian Ocean. Not for nothing did the American, British, Dutch and Australian (ABDA) allies refer in 1941 to the region as “the Malay Barrier” in vain plans to resist the Japanese lunge for the riches of the Indies at the outset of WW2.

It was in recognition of this strategic importance and vulnerability at the height of the Cold War, and having resolved the hostilities between Indonesia and the newly independent Malaysia, that the five major nations of Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines) formed the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in 1967 for mutual security and trade. From its inception Indonesia has been and remains the beating heart of the alliance.

Since the 1960s East and Southeast Asia countries have prospered mightily under an international trade system set up by the Western allies post WW2. ASEAN has been expanded to include Vietnam, Brunei, Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia.

However given that ASEAN is an association ruled by consensus it is not an easy forum in which to address the more dif¿cult issues the region confronts. This did not matter so much in a world where everyone understood and went along with international rules of the game. With the unprecedented growth in China’s economy and trade since Premier Deng’s economic reforms of 1978 China is now economically and militarily strong enough to seek parity if not dominance in East and Southeast Asia at the expense of the US and Japanese interests. China has also made it clear that it expects their ASEAN neighbours to toe the Chinese line.

Indonesia’s pivotal maritime role is therefore now greater than ever.

It is a situation that harks back to the 14th and 15th centuries, a time when Chinese naval power supported the dominance of the Malacca/Palembang sultanate while intervening decisively on behalf of its proxies in dynastic disputes on Java, before itself turning decisively inward and away from the open sea. The new Chinese maritime resurgence puts a recently enlarged ASEAN in an increasingly awkward position since Cambodia is effectively a Chinese client state and Laos is in no position to upset its giant neighbor. All ASEAN members want to expand trade with China, their common largest trading partner, while seeking inward Chinese investment. Nowhere is the dilemma becoming more acute than with China’s militarization of and claim to ownership of the South China Sea. This brings it into potential conÀict with Vietnam and the Philippines most directly, but also to a lesser extent with Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia.

GARDEN DOCTOR

by Dr. Kris

Growing Bali Style ‘Dear Garden Doctor, I have been experimenting gradually transforming my bare garden plot into my own little private oasis. I am trying to develop a Balinese style garden, this is Bali after all! I already have palms, frangipani and a water feature – was wondering about the difference between water lilies or lotus or are they the same plant? I can’t tell the difference. What are the other plants that would be important to add in? I would be very grateful for any other easy tips on growing a Bali style garden that you think would be useful. Interested in your thoughts on this - working on creating my own little patch of paradise here.

Thanking you in advance, Deanne, Sanur.

The use of ceremonial Àags such as umbul umbul, and Balinese umbrellas are additional elements that are simple to add with great effect. Large cut rocks can be used as stepping stones or paths, large rounded river stones can be used on the ground, as plant borders, or placed randomly around the garden as a feature, or also in empty corners to ‘¿ll out’ space.

Balinese gardens and landscape designs are world renowned for their beauty and form. Landscapers and gardeners all over the world often seek to emulate the artistic tranquillity of the Balinese Garden - from grand hotel landscape designs all the way down to a hidden corner of paradise within a small backyard. A few stone ornaments, some palms, frangipani, a water feature ¿lled with lotus could be all you need for your Balinese themed garden - it sounds as if you are already on your way!

A note on Water-lily (Nympha genus) and Lotus (Nelumbo genus).

As you rightly point out, water is an essential part of this type of garden. A water feature or small pond ¿lled with lotus and water-lily will add an authentic touch. Make sure that you add a small fountain to keep the water circulating as well incorporating small fish such as minnows to control the mosquitoes. At the very least a bowl of water with Àoating Àowers and a couple of lit candles is suf¿cient as a water feature.

Another key aspect to consider is the use of art within the garden. Balinese themed gardens focus on using decoration with both painted and carved designs, made from stone and timber. Consider placing features around the garden such as Balinese statues and carvings. Statues of popular Hindu gods or goddesses can be set in a wall niche, or ‘hidden’ amid the garden greenery. When it comes to placement, discretion is the key. Traditional style would include statues of Rama, Sinta, Ganesha and Saraswati - characters from the Ramayana. You could also add Buddhas. Don’t stress out too much about the details, have some fun with it.

with Balinese culture. In Balinese scripture Danghyang Dwijendra stated Bali as Padma Bhuwana, or “lotus Àower” of this planet.

The lotus Àower is the king of all Àowers (Raja Kesuma) and referred to in various stories. Balinese temples contain many structures and one of the most important is the Padmasana or Lotus Throne. The Padmasana is a tall sculptured stone tower upon which the empty stone seat, or lotus throne, is reserved for Sanghyang Widi Wasa (the Supreme God). The Lotus could be the most culturally signi¿cant plant for you to grow in Bali!

For frequent Àowering both water-lily and lotus will require full sun, and need to be re-potted every two years to stop the pot becoming root-bound, which will also affect Àowering. To get the best out of the lotus, it’s best to plant them in an earth bottom pond, because the more the lotus can run, the more it will Àower. In Bali, the most common water lily, are white, yellow, pink or purple.

The lotus usually comes in varieties pink, white or yellow.

Both are easy to ¿nd at any nursery and they are also easy to grow. They thrive in small garden ponds, pots and containers, and bring life to any garden.

Plants chosen for your garden should be used to create a feeling of peace and tranquillity. An abundance of green foliage is an essential element in a Balinese garden. Using palms, frangipani, lotus, water lily and bamboo will instantly create an authentic feel. Smaller plants with colourful foliage such as kroton (‘puring’ in Indonesian) can be used to ¿ll in any gaps and draw the eye.

The use of plants to ¿ll in the gaps with varying heights and types of foliage (shapes, textures and colours) is visually pleasing and gives depth to the garden - creating an illusion of increased space. Don’t forget to also use plants for practical purposes such as providing shade or to create a screen or even for partitioning different areas of the garden.

A key consideration to take into account for your own Balinese themed garden is the balance between the key elements of stone, water, and the obvious one - which is plants! A common traditional design feature would be a stone entrance way with over-sized wooden doors or gates leading into the garden.

A bale (gazebo) is also often strategically located within the garden - it could be used as a focal point but is also possible as a place to hide away, considering that its intended use is as a place for rest and reÀection. In Bali, the word ‘bale’ means ‘a place for relaxation’. Use stone lanterns at the entrance to your bale or at the entrance points to the garden – they are an artistic feature, whether they provide light or not.

These plants have similar growing requirements - they will need a large water bowl or pond to grow in. Many people get confused between the water-lily (bunga teratai) and the lotus (padma).

The difference between the two? The water lily has leaves which grow from below and Àoat at or on the water’s surface, whilst the lotus has leaves that usually grow up to a metre above the surface.

In Buddhist literature the lotus is a plant that grows out of the slimy disgusting mud, to produce the most beautiful Àower. It is compared with life, ‘whatever your life circumstances, it’s possible for the most beautiful thing to rise.’

Hindu deities are often depicted as seated on a lotus Àower.

Lakshmi, wife of the Hindu god Vishnu, the goddess of fortune and prosperity is also usually portrayed as sitting on a lotus, her traditional symbol. The lotus also has a close connection

Flowering plants for a Balinese style garden include those such as adenium, heliconias, frangipani, hibiscus, lotus, lilies, bougainvillea, bromeliads, euphorbia, orchids, jasmine and champak (cempaka). Foliage plants to grow within a Balinese garden include palms, cycads, birds-nest ferns, alocasia, philendendron, aglaonema, and ginger. Bamboo and ornamental grasses look good if planted in clumps.

Have fun with it and let it evolve. You live in Bali so whatever your creation I am happy to say that it will always be a Balinese Garden!

Literary Tour of Bali Bali’s development as a destination for famous and infamous European and American writers and scholars has endured for more than 100 years. It was during the Dutch colonial period in the 1920s and ‘30s when Bali as an island paradise fully emerged. Over the decades following the conquest and occupation of the south, a select group of tourists, expatriates, actors, celebrities, paradise seekers and other strange and colorful personalities from all over the world began to invade the island.

The first guidebook to Bali, entitled Bali and Lombok, was an oversize, lavish publication containing 250 original illustrations.

This book is generally ascribed to H. van Kol, a member of the Dutch parliament. Published in 1903, its aim was to explain Holland’s island empire to van Kol’s countrymen. Unfortunately, because it was in Dutch, the book enjoyed limited circulation.

Simultaneous with the very beginnings of the age of tourism, Dutch colonial officials and distinguished European scholars began to build a body of published work on Bali with no parallel anywhere else in the world, earning the island its distinction as “Anthropology’s Shakespeare.” This elite circle of intellectuals – as diverse as Margaret Mead, Noel Coward and Buckminster Fuller devoted themselves to the study of Bali’s culture and brought this isolated outpost to the attention of the West.

Among the classic works of anthropological literature produced in the 1930s, pride of place goes to Island of Bali by the Mexican writer/illustrator Miguel Covarrubias. Published in 1937, this book represents one of the most authoritative studies ever written about Bali and its people.

With noteworthy writers arriving in ever increasing numbers over the years, you begin to understand how the Balinese ethos eventually was to pervade western art, film, fashion, literature and music. Even those who had never been to Bali were able to conjure up a glimpse of paradise through important literary works, whose writers either based themselves or their stories all over the island.

Kuta *A portion of the famous book Revolt in Paradise, K’Tut Tantri (Mureal Pearson) takes place in Kuta. First published by Harper & Row in 1960, this extraordinary autobiographical account of a Scottish-born American writer’s wartime experiences is a swashbuckling tale of life in Indonesia from 1932 to 1947. A memoir that resembles more pulp fiction than high literature, the book fell between genres. It is at the same time a war story, an autobiography, a travel book, a love story and a spy tale.

Going by her Balinese name of K’tut Tantri, the writer tells of her life as an eccentric painter and Kuta beach hotelier in prewar Bali who later becomes an ardent Indonesian revolutionary, blockade-runner and radio propagandist known by the nom de guerre Surabaya Sue. From the start, the book was a success, becoming one of the great romantic adventure novels of WW II, drawing parallels with Lawrence of Arabia and Mata Hari.

Revolt in Paradise was lauded by poet laureate Carl Sandburg and has been reprinted in a dozen languages. *American hotelier Robert Koke, Bali’s first Western surfer, recorded images of Kuta Beach in the late 1930s. Together with his wife Loise Coke, he wrote Our Hotel in Bali about how he as a young Californian introduced surfing to Bali and opened Kuta’s first hotel. At the time, Dutch travel agents derided the couple’s simple thatchand-bamboo guesthouses as “dirty native huts,” but before long

they were turning people away. Their wonderful story - exciting, touching and amusing - glows with affection and respect for the Balinese. The architectural style the Kokes pioneered flourishes to this day.

Karangasem *The Night of Purnama by Anna Mathews is a unique eyewitness account of a violent volcanic eruption and its devastating aftermath. In 1962, Anna and her husband chose to make their home in Iseh, a remote hamlet facing Mount Agung, the holiest mountain of Bali. Suddenly in February 1963, after they had been on the island seven months, the “extinct” volcano came to life. Over the next six months it poured out ash, lava and volcanic bombs, burying whole villages, destroying rice fields, killing 2000 people and bringing terror and famine to hundreds of thousands more.

Denpasar *Bali 1964 to 2009 is the story of a New Zealand woman’s 45 years in Bali through the dangers and political upheavals of the mid-1960s and her pioneering efforts to promote tourism on the island in the late 1960s early 1970s. For the first year Jan Mantjika had to make radical adjustments to living with her husband’s family in Puri Agung Kesiman, six km east of Denpasar. In 1969, the Mantjikas opened Jan’s Tours, the first independent travel agency in Suharto-era Bali. An account of pivotal events of Bali’s modern era, the book brings the bloody horrors of nearly half a century ago vividly to life. *The German novelist and A c a d e m y Aw a r d winning screenwriter Vicki Baum visited the island in 1935 and became close friends with Walter Spies, the Russianborn German primitivist painter who had settled in Ubud in 1927. Looking for an idea for a new book, she decided to write about the mass suicide (puputan) that occurred in 1906 when Dutch colonial troops marched on Denpasar’s Badung Palace. Facing repeating rifles, the royals and their followers fought to the death rather than submit to Dutch rule. In 1937, Baum published Tale of Bali, a fictionalized account of that horrific event. Walter Spies is said to have made invaluable margin notes in her manuscript. This was the first book to depict the European conquest of Bali from the Balinese point of view. Baum wrote a total of 50 novels, ten of which were made into Hollywood films, enabling her to become a US citizen at a time when her books were banned in Nazi Germany.

She died in Hollywood in 1960.

Tabanan *Bengkel, a small farming village southeast of Tabanan, was the location of a young American journalist who wrote of his Bali experiences in The Last Paradise. First published in 1930, this book’s description of the island, its inhabitants, their customs, beliefs and attitudes is remarkable both for its insights and its prescience. Written by one of the pioneering writers who helped make Bali known to the outside world, there is perhaps no better picture of what Bali was like before the advent of mass tourism. *The foremost anthropologists of their time, Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson carried out research in Bali during the 1920s and lived and worked in Bayung Gede in Tabanan between 1936 and 1938. The two also did extensive field study on Balinese painting in Batuan near Ubud. Spies’s co-writer, Beryl de Zoete satirized their work. Anthropologist Jane Belo, Colin McPhee’s wife and a disciple of Mead, criticized Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson outright. Luh Ketut Suryani and Gordon Jensen reviewed the couple’s work in a book published in 1992 by Oxford University Press, The Balinese People: A Reinvestigation Of Character. They found many of their observations to be correct but many of their interpretations and conclusions to be wrong.

Peliatan *With a statue of a Balinese dancer standing at its southern

entrance, this “Village of Dancers” was the focus of musicologist and impresario John Coast’s Dancing Out of Bali, the story of how he first introduced Bali’s spellbinding performing arts to the West when he led a music and dance troupe to Europe and the United States in 1952-1953 to huge acclaim. First published in 1954, Coast tells of how a young Englishman, fresh out of a Japanese prison camp, and his Javanese wife, recruited and organized a group of dancers and musicians from the Royal Palace of Peliatan. Today, just behind the palace at Balerung Stage there’s a permanent exhibition of black & white photos taken during that historic tour. Written in a personal, down to earth style, this is remarkable personal adventure story for all readers.

Campuhan *Just down the road from the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival’s hub, the Tjampuhan Hotel in Campuhan was once home to Walter Spies, the highly talented German artist, p h o t o g r a p h e r, musician, anthropologist, ethnologists, ethnographer and choreographer who lived in Bali in the 1930s. Among his many accomplishments, Spies was also a skilled researcher, copy editor and natural historian. He collected oral folktales and established a palm leaf manuscript library. With British dance critic and musicologist Beryl de Zoote, he corroborated on a book called Dance and Drama in Bali, still one of the most comprehensive studies ever written on Balinese dance and drama. The text was written by de Zoote on the basis of notes and information given to her by Spies. Most of the photographs were taken by Spies; he also served as a consultant for Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson. Along with Spies’s paintings, his former cottage and pool on the hotel grounds are some of the very few physical remnants of an artist’s life from Bali’s pre-tourism era.

Sayan *Spies also assisted Colin McPhee’s in his book A House in Bali, the story of a young American musicologist who made his home on the Sayan Ridge west of Ubud. The structure has long since disappeared. McPhee arrived in Bali in 1931 after hearing a recording of Balinese music in New York. His book gives insight into the local music, life and culture of the times. Though published in 1944, it remains relevant today. The village of Sayan is also the setting for McPhee’s children’s book A Club of Small Men: A Children’s Tale from Bali, the true story (with elegant drawings) of men and boys from ages 6 to 60 who created a gamelan group in Sayan in the 1930s. Introduction by ethno-musicologist James Murdoch, a long time Australian resident of Sayan.

Bangli *In 1912, the German doctor Gregor Krause arrived for an eight-month term of colonial service in Bangli, an area barely touched by foreign visitors. The astonishing 4000 photographs he took between 1912 and 1914 of ordinary people going about their daily lives - farmers, priests, royal families, women and children, markets, temples and dances - were the first to showcase Bali to the world. Exerting a pervasive influence, this work was repeatedly referred to by later visitors, including Spies and Corvarrubias. First published in 1929 as Bali: Volk, Land, Tanze, Feste, Tempel, Dr. Krause’s photos were republished in 1990 in the book Bali 1912. Until the publication of Corvarrubias’s 1937 masterpiece Island of Bali, this remarkable collection of photographs had the single greatest impact in spreading Bali’s fame, mesmerizing all of Europe. The priceless images, taken while he was a government doctor, revealed a culture that had remained unchanged through the centuries.

The first extensive photo documentation of the island, this book inspired some of the first travelers to visit the island.

If You Have a Problem with.....

“Electrical Lemmings” The earth is big, really really big, it is humungously big, in fact it is the biggest thing we can actually touch. While we may be rather ambivalent towards planet earth, for electrons it is home.

As we already know the electron was named after the Greek elektron which, of course, means amber. Amber? Yes, amber and this is because when the ancient Greeks rubbed dead cats on amber it upset subatomic particles which made them run around like idiots and these we call electrons. The collective noun for electrons is electricity. Down in the highways and byways of Surabaya thousands of people work night and day rubbing dead cats on pieces of amber sending hysterical electrons down large cables to Bali so that we can enjoy all the carnal (and incarnal) pleasures of electrical power.

In fact all those little electrons are doing is trying to find their way home to earth and, as certainly as a dog will pee on your car wheel, given half a chance earth is where those little blighters will go. If we have a fault such as a short circuit in our electrical circuits they will escape and, like lemmings jumping off the cliff, they will rush headlong to earth. So vigorous are they in their endeavour they will produce heat that may result in your house burning down or, if you just happen to get in their way, a well kicked bucket.

We need to protect ourselves against the dangers of homesick electrons.

Fuses The first electrical protection devices were fuses. As we all know the concept is simple, somewhere on its way into an electrical system the live wire is passed through a fuse which has a short length of soft, easily melted metal wire. If the electric current becomes too high the wire gets hot and melts and the electrical current is cut off. The first fuses were being used as early as 1864 to protect telegraph systems from lightning strikes.

Note that It is excessive current rather than voltage that produces heat and melts the wire and it is also current rather than voltage that kills us if we are electrocuted.

Miniature Circuit Breakers known as MCBs Fuses were replaced in the 1960s by miniature circuit breakers or MCBs which are still in general use in many countries to this day. Unfortunately, just like fuses before them, MCBs have a fundamental problem - there is a distinct tendency for people to pass onto another realm leaving behind a carcass fried to a deep shade of charcoal long before the MCB trips out.

It was clear that a better system was needed.

Earth Leakage Contact Breakers or ELCB In order to protect people and animals from injury or death the Earth Leakage Contact Breaker or ELCB was developed.

These devices work by detecting electricity that has leaked from the live and neutral wires to the earth connections in electrical circuits.

These earlier ELCB’s became widely available around 60 years ago and they worked by detecting differences in voltage.

However anyone who, in the school physics laboratory, played with shock machines or generators that sent blue flashes to your nose knows that you can have high voltages without large currents and it is in fact current (the flow of electricity) that kills you and not voltage.

Development of the Residual Current Device or RCD So around 40 years ago a new type of ELCB became available which worked, not on voltage but in current. By checking the current flow going into a circuit with the current flow coming out (these should be the same) they can detect if there is a problem. These were found to be more reliable and provided a higher level of safety. Unfortunately both devices were known as ELCBs and this caused a worrying confusion and so, in their wisdom, the international electrical standards body or IEC officially renamed these new current detecting switches Residual Current Devices or RCDs or RCCBs. Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) The Residual Current Circuit Breaker can detect problems and switch the power off.

How do they work?

In an electrical circuit the power going into the circuits through the live wire should always be the same as the power returning through the neutral wire because it is travelling around a closed circuit. If there is a fault in the circuit and power is leaking away to earth somewhere then the power passing into the circuit through the live connection will not be the same as the power passing out of the circuit through the neutral wire.

This difference is known as residual current. We place a small coil of wire around the live and neutral wires inside the switch which can detect if the power is different, it then uses this power difference or residual current to switch the power off.

These devices are very sensitive and work very quickly.

Electrical standards demand that they operate from a current of 30 milliamps and switch the power off faster than it takes a flea to burp, far quicker than the shock could harm us.

So now we have two devices to protect us: 1. The Miniature Circuit Breaker or MCB that cuts the power off

if the current gets too high and 2. The Residual Current Circuit Breaker or RCCB that cuts the power off if there is a leakage of power indicating a fault.

These are two devices perform very different purposes both of which are important.

The vast majority of electrical installations in Indonesia have standard contact breakers (MCBs) installed but do not have residual current devices. Electrocution protection is becoming more common and we now find a few modern private buildings and many new commercial buildings are having RCCBs installed however there is a common problem.

Let us look at an example.

Here we see a typical new installation in a villa in Bali. The power comes into a master contact breaker (MCB) on the right (the black switch) - it will cut out at loads more than 20 amps. Second from the right we see a Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) which will cut out if there is a fault causing a small residual current. The power then feeds from the RCCB into the 6 circuit breakers (MCBs) on the left.

This arrangement is very common but has a fundamental problem. RCCBs are very sensitive and any slight fault on any one of the 6 circuits will make the RCCB cut out. Frustrated local electricians, faced with the problem of trying to find a fault that could be on any one of so many circuits, will tend to bypass the RCCB rather than trying to find and fix the problem.

You are not protected and you probably won’t even know it.

So how do we get around this and make sure we are protected?

We install an RCBO on each circuit.

Residual Current device with Overload Protection or RCBO An RCBO combines the two functions, it is a contact breaker (MCB) to provide overload protection with a residual current device (RCD) built into it to provide electrocution protection.These devices are now mandatory in many western countries. They are known as a GFCIs (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) in America and Canada, RCBOs in Europe and as RCDs (Residual Current Device) or safety switches in Australia. Some people may still refer to them as Earth Leakage Detectors however it should be assumed that they really mean residual current devices.

Email : mano@mrtrusted.asia www.mrtrusted.asia C/Ns/G-11 May 16

Pictured we see a typical RCBO. Note that lower half is the MCB providing the overload protection while the upper half is the RCD containing the coil that senses current leakage.

• Live power from the electrical supply comes in to the connector L IN at the bottom.

• The blue cable connects to the electrical supply neutral Neutral coming in from the neutral buzz bar (don’t know what a buzz bar is? - don’t worry about it) • Live power and neutral power goes out to the house circuits from connectors L OUT and N OUT at the top.

• The thin wire connects to the earth, this will make sure there is power to switch the unit off if there is a break somewhere.

There is, of course, just like any circuit breaker, a manual switch. Up is on and down, as shown, is off. If there is a fault or an overload on the electrical circuit this switch should turn off.

C/Bm/I-03 Feb 16

You will also note a button above the switch. This is a test button to make sure the unit is working correctly. If you press this button the main switch should switch off.

Installation Beware, many people won’t even know what an RCBO is. You will need to find an electrican who understand about RCBOs and how they work to install them for you. You may also have to order them as most electrical shops won’t have them in stock.

Most buildings have a number of different circuits for power, lighting, air conditioning, pumps, etc. To be safe an RCBO should be installed instead of an MCB on each electrical circuit.

RCBOs are more expensive than MCBs but - how much is a life worth?

WHO warns of Global TB epidemic More deadly due to anti-drug resistant strains, say experts In a dramatic turnabout the World Health Organisation (WHO) strongly criticised what it called the “dismal” response of world governments, who had pledged to eradicate Tuberculosis (TB) the most deadly infectious disease on the planet by 2013.

In a long overdue but hard-hitting report published earlier this month the WHO stated that over 1.8 million people had died in 2015 as a result of TB. The figures show the disease is a lot more common than previously thought. The WHO estimated there were 9.6 million cases in 2014, but it put the rise down to better recording in India, where TB is a particular problem. The scale of the problem is now huge with about 60 percent of cases to be found in just six of the world’s most populous countries - with India having the worst levels, Indonesia coming next, followed by China, Nigeria, Pakistan and South Africa. More ominous yet is the fact that nearly half of all case of all multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) occur in three countries - India, China and Russia, demonstrating that no country, however rich or not, is immune to the TB epidemic to come unless the world as a whole takes urgent steps to wipe out TB once and for all.

The ugly truth is that when we had the chance to get rid of TB, we funked it. Back in the 1950s and 60s when antibiotics were able to contain the disease quite easily nobody cared sufficiently to address the problem in the rest of the world. Now that the drugs are not working the way they used to, we are now all at risk.

Experts have long said there was a need for universal health coverage and public health financing to tackle the disease, which most people can survive given the right treatment and which is relatively inexpensive. The problem is most people do not receive the right treatment even when available because so many do not take their medication correctly, simply because there is so little public health support to inform and monitor them.

This is now a very significant new problem in that the bacteria that cause TB are rapidly gaining resistance to the drugs used against it. Some 480,000 people had a multi-drug resistant form of the disease last year. This form of TB is often fatal, being both difficult and expensive to treat. Treatment is also prolonged and comes with painful side-effects that have been likened to chemotherapy. It is this development that is keeping experts awake at night.

How has it come to this?

TB is an airborne contagious disease, a withering scourge that infiltrates the lungs slowly, painfully and shuts them down.

In its original form and properly treated it is quite easy to treat and cheaply cured. If you don’t follow the antibiotic regimen the disease lingers and can become drug-resistant. In the past 45 years in much of the developed world public health services have been progressively rolled back with predictably unfortunate results. Barely 40 years ago the world was led to believe that TB was all but eradicated. In fact back in 1972 the US Surgeon General of the day boasted to US Congress that “it was now time to close the book on killer infectious diseases”. The day of typhoid, cholera, tuberculosis and measles was done…

C/He/I-27 April 16

Today Aaron Oxley, executive director of anti-poverty group Results and a board member of the UN’s Stop TB Partnership, says the reason the disease is still a major problem is lack of political interest. He is calling for world leaders to attend a first-ever UN summit meeting on the subject in 2017,because the WHO report confirm what health experts have long known, that “the more we look, the more TB we find. “Reducing TB to the point where it is no longer a public health threat now looks a lot more challenging “, he said.

The figure of 1.8 million deaths a year is indeed shocking news. The fact that we have only discovered it at that level and are surprised… makes it even more shocking.

The really disturbing fact is that TB never actually went away, even in the developed world. It just hid for a few years and came back. While most Americans put TB out of their minds the disease found its haven, as ever among the poor, in the meanest quarters of Miami, Atlanta, Houston and New York City where TB rates are 35 times greater than richer parts of these cities.

C/HE/U-20 Jan 16

The resurgence was swift and forceful in many of America’s largest cities, following decades of harsh budget cuts in public-health programs. Without these cuts, TB would all but have been eradicated and the new deadly strains would never have been able to flourish. The last time New York City had 4,000 cases of TB was in 1967 when more than 1,000 beds in municipal hospitals were specifically assigned for TB patients. By 1992 there were less than 75 beds and today there are probably none. Back then there were 22 full-time chest clinics in NYC to monitor and treat the TB-afflicted, by 1992 there were just 9 and today probably no such dedicated clinics exist.

The WHO says that at least $2bn a year extra is needed to fund the necessary research and development to combat MDR-TB but had never exceeded $700m a year between 2005 and 2014. Not only is the funding inadequate, the money for care and prevention in poorer countries is $2bn below the $8.6bn needed and the shortfall is set to widen to “Every case of drug-resistant TB anywhere is an example of $6bn by 2020. a system that broke down somewhere”, observed Dr. Margaret Hamburg, NYC’s Health Commissioner back in 1992.

Dr Mario Raviglione, director of the WHO Global TB Program, Things have not improved since then and we could be about says that “to save lives, we must have rapid tests, drugs and to reap the whirlwind - globally. Now that the WHO has firegimens and we’re falling far short of what’s needed.

WHO’s Director General, Margaret Chan, added bacteria of all sorts. that the world was facing an uphill battle to meet the global target to eradicate the disease and for that to happen “there We now face a return to a pre-antibiotic era where any infecmust be a massive scale-up of efforts” or the world will face tion however minimal can be life-threatening.

PARADISE...

IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

IT’S MOVEMBER! Prostate Cancer Awareness Month It is easy to forget about health screening while we live in a tropical bubble.

Regular health screening reminders which are part of everyday media in developed countries, can easily be forgotten when you live far from the madding crowd. Women, for some reason, seem to able to keep on top of it a little more than men do.

So for those of you that might have forgotten.....IT’S MOVEMBER!!

“Movember” is an annual, month-long event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of prostate cancer. The Movember Foundation runs the Movember charity event, and you can go “www.movember.com” to find out more about it.

What is the PROSTATE GLAND The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male reproductive system, and exists directly under the bladder, in front of the rectum. An exocrine gland is one whose secretions end up outside the body e.g. prostate gland and sweat glands. It is approximately the size of a walnut. The urethra - a tube that goes from the bladder to the end of the penis and carries urine and semen out of the body - goes through the prostate.

When a male climaxes (has an orgasm) contractions force the prostate to secrete this fluid into the urethra and leave the body through the penis.

The cells in the prostate gland also produce a protein called PSA (prostate-specific antigen).

Urine control As the urethra goes through the prostate: the prostate gland is also involved in urine control with the use of prostate muscle fibers. These muscle fibers in the prostate contract and release, controlling the flow of urine flowing through the urethra.

Prostate Cancer In the vast majority of cases, the prostate cancer starts in the gland cells - this is called adenocarcinoma. Prostate cancer is mostly a very slow progressing disease. In fact, many men die of old age, without ever knowing they had prostate cancer - it is only when an autopsy is done that doctors know it was there. Several studies have indicated that perhaps about 80% of all men in their eighties had prostate cancer when they died, but nobody knew, not even the doctor.

During the early stages of prostate cancer there are

usually no symptoms. Most men at this stage find out they have prostate cancer after a routine check up or blood test.

When symptoms do exist, they are usually one or more of the following: Waking frequently at night to urinate Sudden or urgent need to urinate Difficulty in starting to urinate Slow flow of urine and difficulty in stopping Discomfort when urinating Painful ejaculation Blood in the urine or semen Decrease in libido (sex urge) Reduced ability to get an erection Nobody is really sure of what the specific causes are. There are so many possible factors, including age, race, lifestyle, medications, and genetics, to name a few.

• Age - Prostate cancer is rare among men under the age of 45, but much more common after the age of 50.

• Genetics - In the USA prostate cancer is significantly more common and also more deadly among AfroAmericans than White-Americans. Men with a family history (brother / father) have an increased risk.

If a man carries the BRCA gene he is also at higher risk.

• Diet - One study suggests that men with low risk prostate cancer found that following an intensive healthy diet and lifestyle regime focusing on low meat and high vegetable and fruit intake, regular exercise, yoga stretching, meditation and support group participation, can alter the way that genes behave and change the progress of cancer. Other studies have indicated that lack of vitamin D & a diet high in red meat may raise a person’s chances of developing prostate cancer.

• Medication- Some studies say there might be a link between the daily use of anti-inflammatory medicines and prostate cancer risk. A study found that statins, which are used to lower cholesterol levels, may lower a person’s risk of developing prostate cancer.

• Obesity - Another study found a clear link between obesity and raised prostate cancer risk, as well as a higher risk of metastasis and death among obese people who develop prostate cancer.

• Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) -Men who have had gonorrhea have a higher chance of developing prostate cancer.

TESTING FOR PROSTATE CANCER

surface of the prostate. Irregularities include swelling or hardening of the prostate, or lumps on the surface that may indicate development of a tumor, or other problems. The drawback to this test is that the doctor can feel only part of the prostate, so may miss irregularities beyond reach.

Biopsy - A Biopsy is a small tissue sample taken with a spring-loaded needle. This normally conducted by a specialist urologist.

These simple screening tests have had a tremendous effect on the early detection of prostate cancer. PSA tests have only been widely used (in the USA) since 1987. Prior to that more than half of men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer had advanced or metastatic cancer.

By 1992, only five years after PSA become widely available, about 95% of newly diagnosed men had early stage disease that was potentially curable by surgery or radiation. By 2004, rates of metastatic prostate cancer plunged to less than half the rate seen in 1990.

Today we have a much more robust arsenal of tools and practices that have been developed, implemented and verified. They have vastly improved the detection and treatment of prostate cancer. They include: • Establish a baseline. A baseline annual PSA test between the ages of 45 - 50 is highly-effective in predicting the lifetime likelihood of developing prostate cancer. Importantly, it identifies the subset of men at highest risk and who should be screened regularly while determining those at lower risk who can be screened at longer intervals.

• Smarter screening. If, at age 60, a man’s PSA level is below 2, he is at a very low risk of developing incurable prostate cancer during his remaining lifetime. Thus, we can stop or vastly decrease the frequency of screening.

• More MRI. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology is now sufficiently refined to not only target suspicious lesions for biopsy, but to reduce the likelihood of finding a low grade cancer that need not be diagnosed or treated.

• Embrace “active surveillance.” Men initially diagnosed with low-grade cancer (confirmed by a biopsy, MRI and/ or genomic tests) may avoid or delay treatment unless there are signs the cancer is advancing. Three studies have demonstrated the safety of this approach.

Adopting these suggestions will identify the men with aggressive prostate cancer who are potentially going to die if not treated.

The DRE and the PSA are advisable as an annual prevention screen in all men over 50 years of age. While these tests are a little painful and perhaps embarrassing, they may save a lot more pain and heartache in the future.

So to all you men out there, BE AWARE & GROW YOUR HAIR!

The PSA - The PSA blood test looks for the presence in the blood of a protein that is produced specifically by prostate cells called Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA). The presence of an elevated PSA does not necessarily mean prostate cancer is present as there are other medical conditions that can lead to a PSA result outside the normal range. (This test is available directly at Prodia Laboratory).

BALI’S BEST MASSAGES - SEMINYAK AREA The most often asked question of me is: where’s a good place for massage? So each year I select some of the best places to go have an excellent massage. These are spas that are clean and the staff have been well trained.

They also use good natural massage oil.

What should you look for?

• The therapist should ask if you have any areas that need attention or to be avoided.

• They should also ask what kind of pressure you prefer soft, medium or strong • Your massage table should have fresh clean linen • You should be given a locker or place to store your belongings At the top of my list for best massage in Seminyak is my favourite Jari Menari. Here I know I will always get a great massage. I can surrender my body to the experienced hands to relieve any muscle tension, ease any pain, make me feel relaxed and wonderful at the end.

All of the therapists are professionally trained males who discreetly keep draping on properly at all times.

However, when your eyes are closed it no longer is relevant what gender is attached to marvelous hands! Personally I prefer a male practitioner. I came for one of my favourite treatments, the Massage with Movement, for 90 minutes. This includes wonderful stretches of the legs, arms and torso, which makes me feel more flexible and relaxed.

They offer a choice of Perfect Massage, Singing Bowl Enhanced, Focusing on your Back, Signature Massage, Four Hand Harmony, Foot Massage and Pregnancy Massage. Jari Menari is known for slow movements blending strong massage strokes, rocking, stretching and palm pressure, focusing on each individual guest.

music. The massage treatments are performed on the second floor with several very wide beds separated by curtains.

I chose the most popular Full Body Massage for 90 minutes with one therapist. This is suggested for soft to medium pressure. April was my practitioner of the day. She told me that she had worked there before, left but then returned because the owner is very good with the staff and clients are friendly. The massage started off with lots of pressure points and palm pressing over my back and legs for a very long time. Then she applied oil to my back and began stroking with consistent strong pressure. Her forearm slid over my back repeatedly with good pressure ironing out any tension.

Actually the back massage lasted a long time. The front of the body seemed less time but the head massage at the end was very soothing. Overall it was a very good massage for relaxation and easing muscle tension.

Zema Healing is a great place to find relief. They use a method of opening the meridian points with special techniques to release muscle tension and restore your blood circulation and flexibility to their proper functions. This all male therapist oasis is head by Zen, who is certified as a musculoskeletal and body posture therapist.

It’s basically a family run business with his brother and brother-in-law acting as qualified practitioners. Zema Healing is also highly rated by Trip Adviser.

The Zema Remedial Massage 90 minute is the p e r f e c t ‘tune-up’ for your body. The practitioner will release blockages, ease muscular pain and is able to pinpoint problems in your body. If you need additional work done the Healing & Pain Therapy is the idea follow up.

Recently, Jari Menari opened the world’s first Art Salon in a massage, spa or wellness center, a new chill out lounge. This stunning space is open, complimentary to guests after the massage for coloring, journal writing, Hemi-Sync brain balancing musical tapes or perusing their library of books.

Eventually he addressed my shoulder drawings of various problem and worked on this for some time until I felt a release m a n d a l a s , and achieved improved movement. At the end of ninety elephants and minutes my body definitely felt better and more agile. abstracts, I sat and really enjoyed The Healing & Pain Therapy focuses on hip and back, neck spending about 45 and frozen shoulder, sciatica and insomnia problems. If you’re minutes wearing suffering from any of these this is the treatment to have. This headphones and listening to Hemi-Sync music to balance treatment is only performed by Zen and his brother. my brain as I coloured my elephant. Other people chose to simply lie back and listen to music or peruse through a book They also offer Balinese + Warm Stone Massage, Balinese from the library.

By The Coach

This Sporting Life AFL NEWS Bali Geckos bring home Asia’s AFL Championship Cup. The Bali Geckos AFL football club have achieved a long sought after goal by defeating the Myanmar Fighting Cocks in the Grand Final of the Asian Championships, Division 2, held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on October 15. The difference between Division 1 and division 2 was purely in the number of players fielded- Div 1 teams fielded 16 players whereas in Div 2 reams fielded 12 players. 12 teams competed in Division 2 this year, which was arguably a tougher competition than Division 1 which only hosted 6 teams. In the first game of the day, the Geckos dusted off the cobwebs and made reasonably easy work of VietnamB running out winners 59 to 6.

In a potential tournament ending move, the Geckos enacted a player rotation policy against Thailand. This backfired early on in the game and Thailand jumped out to a three goal lead.

The Geckos couldn’t rein them back in and ended up going down 44 to 21. The boy’s heads were low and they only had one more qualifying game to go to arrest the downhill slide.

The third game saw the Geckos take on the Lao Elephants.

Laos were defending Division 2 champions, and earlier in the day had dismissed of Thailand easily, winning by roughly 6 goals or 36 points. Laos also had the benefit of three current WAFL players (the top league in Western Australia) playing for them, so the task to defeat them was always going to be tough.

As Geckos President/Coach Greg “Hinchy” Hinchcliffe reported, “Justin Langridge, who dominated in the front half for the Geckos, was named in the All Asian team. Markus Didikus Ria and Aan Andre Susanto, our two local representatives, were also premiership players from the Friday tournament involving only Asian indigenous players.

The Indonesian Garudas, made up of local players from Bali, Jakarta and Borneo defeated the China team in the grand final of the Asian Cup. Markus was also named as player of the tournament for that competition, I would also add that Markus is Indonesian national rugby player, so making a dual international. Two flags in two days for our two local boys!”

Hinchy followed with “A big thank you to all the sponsors and supporters of the Bali Geckos. This is hopefully the first of many.”

PARALYMPIC SPORTS TAFISA Wheelchair Rugby Cup Following a two week training camp at Bali Island School, the BSF Bali based Indonesian wheelchair rugby team had an unbeaten run to the final culminated in Indonesia winning the Wheelchair Rugby Cup @ the TAFISA World Games in Jakarta on October 9 defeating Thailand 61-43. Played over three days at the Jakarta Intercultural School in what was the first wheelchair rugby tournament ever held in Indonesia’s capital, one of the over 30 sports in the 2016 Tafisa World Games supported by the Indonesian Ministry of Sports, The Tafisa Cup, opened by Dr Bayu of the Ministry of Sports

In one of the toughest displays by a Bali team, the Geckos attacked the highly fancied Elephants with a ferocity that gave them no room to dispose of the ball and eventually the turnovers were created. The Geckos took full advantage of their turn with the ball to run out winners 44 to 18 setting up a semi-final against China and eliminating Laos in the process.

marked the debut of newcomers Singapore, and the welcome return to competition of India and Thailand, their first tournament since 2013, South East Asia powerhouse Malaysia and host Indonesia completing the line up of five developing Asian countries. Special mention should be made of Thailand, who returning to competition after a 3 year hiatus defeated pre event number one ASEAN team Malaysia in the semi finals only to lose to an Indonesia superbly lead by eventual tournament MVP, Ubud’s Ni Made Ratni ijn the final. With the win, Indonesia is firmly ranked first in South East Asia and a medal favourite with wheelchair rugby looking to join the ASEAN ParaGames in Kuala Lumpur in September 2017.

Final Standings 1. Indonesia 2 .Thailand 3. Malaysia 4. Singapore 5. India MVP - Ni Made Ratni (INA) The Indonesian Wheelchair Rugby Federation (INA WRF) would like thank their sponsors Indonesian Ministry of Sport, the Australian Embassy in Jakarta, Crown Relocations, Jakarta Intercultural School, MAJU wheelchairs and Bali Sports Foundation.

SPORTING CALENDAR

The China game was a see-sawing affair with never more than a kick in it. China took an early lead but the Geckos took control of the mid part of the game. China never gave in however, and peppered the goals till the last siren. The Geckos ended up prevailing by a single point.

The rain greeted the teams for the grand final and wet weather footy made for a dour match as a spectacle but ensured the tougher and more committed team would prevail in the testing conditions. The Geckos dominated early and held onto that lead throughout the final with a comfortable winning score of 35 to 10.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid!

By Vaughan Hatch

What does Numitis mean?

Balinese believe in reincarnation and the word reincarnate (numitis) pops up a lot in daily conversation. In fact, most families so strongly believe in past lives and the cycle of death and rebirth that a short while after a baby is born they go to ask an ‘orang pintar’ (a smart person) who the child is an incarnate of. This person is kind of the equivalent of a crystal ball reader or oracle of past ancient societies.

This ‘smart person’ is normally a balian, which is the Balinese version of a witch doctor (can be either female or male), who, asides from having healing powers, claims to also be able to read the past and the future. A family normally makes an appointment some days in advance and at that time enquires about to the offerings required for the ritual.

The ritual itself is short and involves the balian praying and asking who has reincarnated into the child. The family is then told and if there is any particular problem will suggest what offerings need to be made and on what days.

Once back home after the ceremony, the family talks at length about the results. Interestingly enough, if the claims sound a little far-fetched, some family members may not agree at all. They may even suggest that another balian is consulted. Whatever the results are, some families take the claims very seriously. This can actually affect the upbringing of the child. For example, it might turn out that according to the balian the child has been given the incorrect name, one that does not suit the child’s “origins”. This is thought to potential cause mayhem, in the form of accidents or sickness. In this case, the family will consider changing the name, just to be safe.

However, some more modern Balinese are cynical about the practice of consulting a balian and see these oracles are being more moneymaking schemes than anything substantial. This is exactly what we have seen in other cultures as they modernize and question customary beliefs.

BA FEATURE Continued from page 21

In a recent development the Philippines took its case to the Court of Arbitration in the Hague who, much to China’s fury, upheld the Philippine position in its entirety under the UN Convention of the Law of the Sea. The world has now become a much more, dangerous place as China now seeks to drive the US Navy out of Western Pacific, while adopting a carrot-and-stick approach to encourage her neighbours to acquiesce in a new Chinese sphere of influence that includes the ASEAN countries.

Since his inauguration in 2014 Indonesia’s president Joko Widodo has made clear his aim to restore Indonesia to its one-time maritime greatness. Nothing would strengthen Indonesia’s economic and strategic standing more effectively. It would also serve to beef up his weak position against the entrenched oligarchs of his own party and his opposition, many of whom may be overly susceptible to the Chinese carrot. At the same time he can usefully collaborate with the Chinese desire to build their maritime Silk Road by accepting their aid and developing Indonesia’s marine infrastructure.

It will take skilful handling and Joko has already demonstrated some steel by his firm action with regard to the incursions of Chinese fishing boats and the aggressive action of the Chinese coastguard in Indonesia’s maritime economic zone. He also has the solid support of ASEAN allies Vietnam, the Philippines (now wavering with a new President), Singapore and Malaysia, plus strong regional support from India, Australia and Japan and, if a push comes to a shove, he has the might of the US Navy to call upon in extremis.

All in all, not a bad hand, if only he can keep his end up and his domestic house in order.

It all makes one wish that Bali could be more user-friendly for the recreational yachtsman too. There’s been progress to be sure, but a long way to go in comparison with neighbouring countries who enjoy a fraction of the cruising allure to be found in Indonesian waters.

Still, perhaps it’s better to push ahead steadily and incrementally (how else?), rationalizing related regulations where necessary, adding more pontoon moorings, piles, trots and chandleries before leaping into a brash new world of glitzy hotels alongside mega marinas, all hard by a Formula One race track.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE OCTOBER 26 - NOVEMBER 09, 2016

The New Moon early this fortnight is conjoined Mercury and of course the Sun, all in the sign of Scorpio. These planets create a harmonious aspect to Neptune and the South Node in Pisces and promote a time of emotionally powerful connections with others through communication. The last two weeks have seen Mars join with Pluto and now square off to Uranus. This is a furthering of the theme of the past few years when Uranus and Pluto were in their square aspect. Mars promotes action and in the realm of the wild card verses the establishment. The walls are coming down and it is apparent that the “Emperor has no clothes” or at least soon will be. Watch closely the actions of governments, military and the global elite financial institutions (Pluto/Mars Capricorn) and those who would oppose their authority at this time (Uranus Aries). Water is an issue with our Neptune/South Node in Pisces. Scorpio, ruled by both Mars and Pluto is the sign of deep penetrating investigation and Mercury rules the mind. Saturn and Venus are joined on the New Moon and prepare the way for the feminine to speak up and expose or demand the Truth. There will be some unpredictable twists and turns this fortnight and so it’s better to remain alert, prepared for anything and very mentally discerning. It is also a good time to employ your intuition and to use your gut instincts when unsure of what to do or say. There remains a feeling of timeliness to the current events.

NEW MOON 7 Scorpio 43 October 31, 2016 1:38 a.m.

This is a profoundly deep time for the Aries native and if it weren’t for that renegade Uranus in your sign you might want to run away and hide. As you face your inner demons and come to terms with your past, so much healing is made available to you. Face the challenges with regard to your career and be your forthright self even in the face of adversity. You are a force to be reckoned with when you cloak yourself in the unbiased truth. There are female friends or lovers on your side and who have your back during this important transitionary time. Allow those deep emotions to surface.

Balancing financial motives with those of the heart is an interesting undertaking at this time and probably a little more easy than normal.

You are feeling generous and understanding in the workplace and your motivations are relatively selfless. It’s the family arena where competitive issues may arise or confrontations around the old and established order of things or traditions. This could be a good time to dispel any myths you have carried and to transform old issues. If you are the provocateur then know that you will be in for some more conflict as the old structures dissolve and crumble around the family dynamics.

Venus your ruler is joined to Saturn and makes for some solid commitments this fortnight. Having said that, it is however ok to change your mind occasionally and mould to a new set of circumstances. You may then be modifying what has gone before. What is apparent is that you are ready to go in deep with the significant other and share from your heart those things which matter the most to you. Your combative nature may remain hidden as you learn to disseminate information from the higher aspect of your mind. There’s a certain sense of déjà vu as you express through a more mature emotional personality.

This is the Scorpio cycle which culminates in a Taurus Full Moon when you get to balance the personal aspect with that of the union of opposites. Be prepared for some heated debates particularly within or concerning your work. Alternatively there may be some childhood rivalry issues to be dealt with. The good news is that you are “on” at this time and can certainly stand your ground when things become personal. There’s a woman in the works who can help you enormously when it comes to finances and/or personal values. Your approach to children is genuine and they are very receptive to you particularly in group settings.

Mercury is joined the New Moon/Sun combination and begins a cycle of transformational thought processes particularly in relationship to your health and your work. You may be feeling enough support now to move more into your vocational flow and away from working from a need to make money. There’s a certain sense of balance ensuing at this time and a mental clarity which allows going even deeper into the realms of mortality and the higher meaning to life. It may in and of itself create a new persona and a more forthright expression within your group of friends and community members. Teaching may come easy to you now, particularly women.

What would you most benefit from at this time? There’s something to be said for the joy factor which enlivens our soul and illuminates our life with enthusiasm. Even when life throws up obstacles, financial or otherwise we can rise to the occasion and get more creative then ever.

There are hidden powers at work this cycle and they are finely attuned to your intuitive and deeply caring nature.

Although you may feel quite removed from the world at this time, your work is far reaching and you are honing your skills for the future. There’s deep contemplation, digestion and integration taking place now and preparing you for the next life cycle.

The New Moon is promising a little romance and the possibility of adventure. If you are flowing with the emotional side of your nature this will be a time of grace and ease, apart from the occasional workplace confrontational encounter. As you exert a more authoritative expression others may take offence and let this not deter you from moving forward with your career aspirations now and as you continue to connect with the spiritual side of yourself decisions will come more from intuition as opposed to a mental model. Connecting with your inner guidance will lead you to a more confident approach and you will have the support of female colleagues.

Saturn and Venus joined bring the support of a woman this cycle and she will no doubt be of assistance with regards to your emotional or family issues. You possess quite a powerful personal aura at this time and this could threaten other people who misinterpret your personality as dominating. Friendships are particularly important to you as the emotional content of communications flows readily during the Scorpio month. Sharing your ideas will open the way for the next phase to unravel and to support you to elevate your thinking to a higher level of discernment.

Sometimes you simply need to be the force of change in your environment, rather than waiting.

Your thoughts turn naturally to home and you are feeling a deepening within your feminine self, whether male or female. Give a free reign to your emotional self this cycle and it will reveal some hidden gems to you in the form of inspiration and creativity. There’s a strong sense of freedom and independence which comes with this and it may have you challenging the status quo in the workplace.

It could be time to unburden you from the ways of the past and to reach for those things which truly make you feel alive and free. Be discerning with regards to finances and generous with your heart and soul.

As you go about your life emotionally supporting others through difficult situations you are rewarded with a sense of peace which goes way beyond personal and material acquisitions.

There’s an unseen force which motivates you to communicate the way that you do and even though it may seem unusual and at times direct, it comes from an unbiased source. There’s a woman in the community who is an inspiration to you and a motivation to continue with your service work. A sense of justice can prevail when you remove the financial barriers and introduce some simple facts to the equation. This is the time to take action on your goals.

The theme of communication is particularly potent for you this fortnight, if not always and of course it’s concerning the significant other. There may be more than one of these however and yet the emotional content is similar. Investigate your own motives and probe the working of your mind before you unleash anything on the sensitive ones around you. You are in a process of honing this ability and the attributes of the Virgo nature, to be discerning and objective. There will be strong issues around children, whether they be your own or in a broader sense and also the role of the mother and father in child rearing.

As much as you would like to dissolve into the Source of All the World keeps pulling you out to integrate and digest and to be of service to the other. Your reflection is one of discernment and a dedication to service. Your value system which has been in a long overhaul continues to go through the metamorphosis this cycle and you will be challenged directly this fortnight. The New Moon focus is on travel and foreign cultures as well as connecting yourself through the universal or higher mind. You will no doubt receive this by osmosis or psychically anyhow and yet if you attune, your mind will be more receptive.

In the return of the Festival’s extensive Satellite Program, a series of events will also be rolled out in Jakarta, Medan, Surabaya, Bandung and Pontianak from 31 October–2 November. Led by Festival favourites including Suki Kim, Mitchell S. Jackson, Emi Mahmoud and Hannah Kent, the free satellite events are a fundamental element of the Festival’s community outreach program.

Supporting the vibrant future of Indonesian literature and the arts The Ubud Writers & Readers Festival may be a truly international melting pot of big ideas and extraordinary stories, but its mission is firmly grounded in supporting the next generation of Indonesia’s authors and artists in bringing their voices to the world.

In the Festival’s main program, leading national authors, artists and advocates – including Eka Kurniawan, Seno Gumira Ajidarma, Dewi Lestari, Joko Anwar and Slamet Rahardjo – will dissect challenges and opportunities of Indonesia’s artistic landscape, such as the role of Indonesian cinema in tackling cultural taboos, and the tenuous relationship between journalism and the state in the world’s third-largest democracy.

In releasing its annual anthology – this year centred on the theme of ‘Tat Tvam Asi’, or ‘I am you, you are me’ – the Festival will bring together 16 emerging writers from across the archipelago, whose winning submissions have been translated and compiled into a 268-page collation of short stories.

Across open-air panel discussions, live performances, workshops, film screenings, art exhibitions, and makers markets kicking off 26 October, the Festival’s five-day program not only celebrates Indonesia’s vibrant artistic landscape, but also creates opportunities for aspiring creatives to hone their skills and connect with the global industry.

Receiving a record 894 submissions from across 201 cities and 33 provinces, the UWRF Anthology will be released by its contributors on Saturday 29 October as part of the Festival’s free book launch program, and be available for sale at the Box Office.

With over 70+ free events taking place over the course of the five days, the Festival offers a wide range of activities for any budget, from film-screenings and live performance to handson workshops for children, youth and adults in the art of writing, filmmaking, spoken word, journalism and graphic

“One of Indonesia’s biggest challenges is its sheer size as a nation, and how difficult it is for initiatives like the UWRF to reach some of the more regional or remote parts of the archipelago, many of which don’t even have libraries or bookshops,” said Founder & Director, Janet DeNeefe.

“As well as making sure Indonesian literature and the arts is front and centre for the thousands of international guests who flock to the Festival, supporting the next generation of Indonesian voices is at the core of everything we do,” she said. “As our theme this year tells us, ‘I am you – you are me’. Nourishing Indonesia literary and artistic landscape through initiatives like the Satellite program, the UWRF Anthology, and a huge selection of free events not only bolsters the future vibrancy of Indonesia’s creative industries, but ours as a world-class event.”

Local News Nusa Lembongan Yellow Bridge Collapses - Nine Dead A bridge connecting two small islands near the Indonesian resort island of Bali has collapsed, killing nine people and injuring at least 30, officials say.

There were too many people passing over the bridge for a religious ceremony when it collapsed at 6.00pm local time Sunday (16/10), police officer Arendra Wahyudi said, adding some motorbikes also fell into the water.

The sea beneath the bridge was less than two meters deep but many of the victims, including three children, were crushed by debris, Mr. Wahyudi said.

All of the victims were locals, he said. Indonesia’s search and rescue agency stopped the search for the day at 9.00pm local time, but will be resuming at daybreak today, its spokesman said.

A sign warning cables had snapped on a rickety suspension bridge connecting two islands off Bali was erected four days before it collapsed on Sunday night.

The narrow yellow bridge between Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, accessible only by foot or motorcycle, crumbled under the weight of heavy traffic due to a ceremony at a nearby temple.

The “Yellow Bridge”, as it is known, is the only route between Nusa Ceningan and Nusa Lembongan, two popular tourist islands off Bali known for their surfing, snorkeling and diving.

A story in the Denpasar Post on October 12 reported local government had erected a sign at the site of the 150-metre bridge warning the cables had broken.

Local officials had visited the bridge on October 11 and requested that the sign be erected after they saw broken cables.

The Denpasar Post said Lembongan local official Ketut Gede Arjaa hoped that the bridge would be fixed next year.

Queensland woman Deb Morrison, whose father has a holiday villa on Nusa Lembongan, said the bridge had felt rickety and unsafe for years.

A video she filmed two years ago reveals gappy, loose and broken wooden boards as a motorcycle clatters across the bridge.

Indonesia Extends Condolences to Thailand After Death of King The government has officially conveyed deep condolences to Thailand after the passing of King Bhumibol Adulyadejdi at the age of 88 on Thursday evening (13/10). In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said it prays for peace and strength for the royal family as well as the Thai people.

King Bhumibol was known as a leader who brought unity, renewal and prosperity to the people of Thailand. President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo also conveyed his personal condolences on Thursday evening. “On behalf of the government and people of Indonesia, I convey the deepest

condolences over the passing of King Bhumibol,” Jokowi said at Merdeka Palace in Jakarta. Jokowi said the passing of the King would not influence stability and peace around the region. “I think we need to have our Asean region to

“Lately the damage is more severe, so residents are anxious and worried to pass,” the story on the NusaBali. com website said on December 17.

It said while weathered boards and rusty ropes had been replaced in a patchwork fashion, residents wanted the suspension bridge completely rebuilt.

Klungkung’s head of public works, I Gusti Nyoman Supartana, was quoted in NusaBali.com in December saying the bridge was being repaired.

Head of the drugs squad at Denpasar Police Station, Gede Ganefo, said officers went to the house of the Australian about 12.30pm yesterday and found luggage with a small bag inside containing what they alleged to be at least seven grams of hash. After questioning, Mr. Ganefo said Mr. Serafino told them he had obtained it from his 54-year-old British friend, who they are referring to as DM. Mr. Serafino was told to set up a meeting with DM, who he arranged to see at On On Bar in

Siapa... ?

by Bill Dalton

Ami Lestari:

Saving the Balinese Language Ami Lestari was born in Denpasar and spent a happy childhood there. In 2001, she graduated from the English Faculty of Letters a t D e n p a s a r ’s U d a y a n a University with a minor in Public Relations. Her interests in her own education and professional development enabled here to find satisfying employment in the marketing, education and hospitality industries. In 2007, Ami worked for High/Scope Indonesia Bali, Green School and ARMA Museum & Resort. Presently Ami’s passion is keeping the Balinese language alive. In corroboration with BASAbali.org, she initiated the Facebook group Raos Bali to encourage Balinese parents to communicate with each other using their own language.

What is the mission of Raos Bali?

Our goal is simple. “Raos Bali” means simply “to speak Balinese.” The main idea behind our group is to encourage young parents to communicate in Balinese in their family and work environments. Our Facebook page is growing not only among young parents but also among younger generation Balinese. The group is for everyone to teach, study and express their own ideas. We try to include lots of topics - festivals, celebrations, foods and places members have visited. Topics may even include learning to count in Balinese for beginners and learning to write the Balinese alphabet.

How did you become involved in the group?

What’s your specific job at Raos Bali?

My role is to manage the site together with my coadministrators, create events such as the Balinese video competition, to add words to the online Balinese-EnglishIndonesian wiki dictionary which BASAbali started a few years ago and to connect and network with other non-profit organizations who are also involved in preserving endangered languages for future generations.

Why is it important to preserve a minority languages?

Sadly, young people understand Balinese less and less.

Most young parents as well as the young generation pride themselves in speaking a second language such as English. Nothing is wrong with that. However, Balinese are starting to forget their mother tongue - what we call Bahasa Daerah. If this trend continues, there will only be a small and ever dwindling number of people who will be able to speak or even understand the Balinese language in the future. I personally don’t want this to happen to my language!

Oh, words are action good enough, if they’re the right words.

The Balinese language is not an easy language to learn, even for the Balinese themselves. The most difficult part is learning the three different speech levels. For example, there are three different words for the word “eat,” depending upon the circumstances and who you are addressing. In the highest and most refined language, Basa Bali Alus, it is ngerayun. The second level, Basa Bali Madya, the word for eat is ngajeng. The word for “eat” in the lowest, most common form, Basa Bali Kasar, is ngamah.

Have you met any Westerners who are fluent in Balinese?

I’ve met several who speak Balinese but not fluently. They are only able to count in Balinese and say basic Balinese phrases and greetings. Though it is difficult, if Western students are highly motivated and apply themselves, they are able to learn Balinese. The easiest way is to have daily conversations with Balinese. They need to be committed to learn a minimum number of words daily, always taking note of the way to pronounce each word.

Are different levels used for different people?

Yes, different vocabularies are used depending upon whom you are speaking to. When you speak to a priest you use Basa Bali Alus to show respect. When you speak with someone you know but not closely, you use Basa Bali Madya. If you’re talking with a friend or sibling, you mostly use Basa Bali Kasar. For Balinese it’s easy to recognize the different speech forms because we learn them from childhood.

What learning methods and language aids do you recommend?

Are you alone in your efforts to preserve the Balinese language?

How can each of us help preserve the Balinese language?

Myself and seven other committed administrators run the Facebook page in coordination with BASAbali. All of the administrators are Balinese and we all are willing to spend a portion of our time making it work. We have a big interest in attracting “Likers” who are curious and want to become involved.

Every Balinese should just communicate every day in Balinese with their children, family members, friends and colleagues. Everyone can help by contributing new words, sentences and pictures with Balinese explanations to our Raos Bali site. We also welcome donations.

We want everyone who “likes” the Raos Bali page to be able to post freely based on his or her interests. The group is a place for Balinese language speakers to share their ideas and creativity. If we created a daily topic, it would discourage people to participate since the subject may not be of any interest to them. We want to make the page easy

Is Balinese difficult to learn?

The story began when I was a member of ARMA’S team in a Saraswati Day event hosted by ARMA and BASAbali.

This was a simultaneous celebration of the Balinese Day of Knowledge in nine countries. As a result of this collaboration, BASABali merged with the ARMA Museum and it was there where I met the people from BASAbali.

We agreed that a simple way to encourage young parents to speak Balinese between themselves and their young children was through a Facebook page, an easy and cheap media platform to get up and running.

Why are so many topics covered in your Facebook page?

For Sale; Asian antiques from all over Asia (Japan, China, Khmer Thai, Indonesia, etc). Cabinet, statue paintings, textile, Buddha statue, etc. Private collection, bought when travelling. No reproduction.

Contact 0813 3863 4748. No photos. Kerobokan. [053]

Sitting in a class and practicing Balinese with a teacher I feel is too hard. The best and easiest is to engage in daily conversation with the Balinese people. This holistic approach to actively go in “the field” and learn with the people should be done on a daily basis. BASABali also has innovative software available that will help people to learn the language in context.

Where can one learn more about Raos Bali?

Please “like” our Raos Bali Facebook group. Help spread the word about the work we do. My email: amilestari3@ gmail.com or tel. 081-138-03303.

MONEY MATTERS

by Colin Bloodworth

TRUMP vs. CLINTON – COULD THE RESULT AFFECT YOUR FINANCIAL PLANS? Assuming Donald Trump manages to survive the almost daily revelations that have battered his already bruised image and assuming no earth-shattering events get in the way of the US presidential election on November 8, to what degree, if any, could the result impact those of us on the other side of the world?

Trump is in favour of doubling military spending. This would be good for manufacturers in the military hardware industry.

But it may not auger well for international relations and could spark an arms race.

Before even considering the question perhaps we should not jump to the conclusion that Trump is out of the race, even though it appears so at the time of writing. It is hard to understand why millions are still supporting him despite his verbal and alleged physical attacks on women, his attacks on minorities, immigrants and moslems and anyone who dares speak ill of him. I suspect the support is because he stands for change to the status quo and a chance to shake up an establishment that is perceived to have done little to improve the lives of the average American. Those who don’t believe he could win should consider the recent Brexit vote which was seen very much as a protest against the establishment. Trump shrewdly recognised this phenomenon and even tweeted that he could be called ‘Mr. Brexit’.

While Trump is still pro-business in line with Republican principles many of his policies are actually anti-business.

Hilary Clinton’s policies are not particularly good for business either but are more in line with the traditions of her own party, placing a greater emphasis on reducing social inequalities by means of state intervention and regulation.

Could the result affect expats in Bali?

US persons can certainly be affected as they are subject to US tax on worldwide income. Of course, if they are resident in Indonesia they are subject to tax on worldwide income here too. Double taxation treaties prevent tax being paid twice but it does make tax reporting a lot more interesting, not to mention time consuming.

Other expats and investors in general may be affected in that the policy stances of the two contenders will have differing impacts on various sectors. If Trump were elected there could be an initial shock reaction in global stock markets. Some fear that once in charge Trump could be offended by the leader of a foreign power and throw his toys out of the pram, leading to a major international conflict. Then we could all be running for the hills. But cooler heads around him are likely to ensure that such a scenario does not occur. Let’s instead look at the policies of the two candidates and see if and how they might impact our savings.

What are Trump’s policies?

Trump has pledged a major reduction in taxes for working and middle-class Americans as well as businesses. A vote winner in any election and if executed successfully could result in American companies and individuals having more disposable income, leading to more spending and a boost to the economy and stock markets. He has also indicated that government spending would be cut. This might allow more money to circulate in the short term but may not be good for the longer term, depending on what cuts were made.

The policies proposed by Trump that could produce the most damage are undoubtedly those of trade deals and protectionism. In the past decade or so global trade has advanced by leaps and bounds. But not all see it in a favourable light; millions of traditional jobs in rich countries have moved to poor countries. Whole industries have disappeared in America and Europe. Trump wants to bring the jobs back but it is pie in the sky. The reality is that companies and jobs will move to countries where there is a large, available workforce and wages are low. Labour-intensive companies that try to operate in a country where they have to pay $10 an hour as opposed to less than $1 an hour in a poor country will simply go out of business. It doesn’t take a higher degree in economics to understand that but there are still millions of voters who will buy his story. Any policy trying to reverse globalisation would be bad news for the US. It would also hurt emerging markets, particularly China.

Trump’s plan to remove all illegal immigrants from the US could have a devastating impact on industries such as farming. One farmer interviewed on TV said that he relied on scores of immigrants to do the fruit-picking. There are no American takers for those jobs so the fruits would just die on the trees. On a larger scale that could mean the US having to import more produce, adding enormously to food prices all down the line.

Are Clinton’s policies any better?

An example is her plan to create more consumer oversight over the prices charged by drug manufacturers. This could impact the shares of healthcare companies who would ‘cry foul’ as they need the profits to fund research but it would leave more money in the hands of consumers.

Clinton does have one populist policy and that is to raise the minimum wage to $12 an hour, even more than Trump has been proposing. This would make a lot of people happy-assuming they don’t lose their jobs as a consequence!

Such a move would hit labour-intensive industries such as restaurants, hospitality and agriculture. Prices would invariably rise and more jobs could be lost. Shares in those sectors would probably fall. There would be more money in some pockets but the cost would be shared by others.

In contrast to Trump, Clinton is a strong advocate of clean energy and environmental protection. She has already made herself unpopular in coal mining regions. She is targeting a one-third cut in US oil consumption over a two-year period. This scenario would be unfavourable for oil and gas companies but good for clean energy companies.

With cheap oil, alternative energy companies have been hit badly in recent years; this could be the trigger for a revival.

So should you be adjusting your financial plans?

What is interesting is that the Republican Party is traditionally pro-market and pro-business whilst the Democratic Party has sought more controls over business. Yet according to a Fidelity report, since 1929 Democratic presidencies have delivered an annualised stock market (S&P 500) return of 14.7% versus 5.4% for Republican presidencies.

The relative calm in the markets at the moment implies they have already built in a Clinton victory. But there is no great enthusiasm for either candidate. So the election could be a non-event for markets although there may be a ‘sigh-of-relief’ rally once Clinton’s victory is confirmed. In the case of Trump, markets don’t like uncertainty so any surprise rally in his ratings prior to November 8 could cause a few knee-jerk reactions.

There may be some justification to make minor adjustments to portfolios in sectors that could be adversely or positively affected but unless you have a high exposure to such sectors it may be better to simply stay the course. The surprise result of Brexit caused an immediate fall in the UK and other markets but it was only a matter of days before they readjusted. Only the British Pound has continued to suffer. It is unlikely that the US Dollar would do the same as it, together with gold, is still perceived as a safe haven in times of uncertainty.

Jewelry Designers

By Anita Bali’s silversmiths and goldsmiths have been crafting personal and temple ornaments for centuries. Today, jewelry designers are still making the most of the archipelago’s rich resources, and traditional jewelry making techniques, to produce unique collections of handcrafted adornments.

Nagicia and Maru are just two of the island’s more notable jewelry labels. Here is the story behind the names.

Nagicia The Korean-American founder and designer of the jewelry brand Nagicia, Tricia Kim, says that despite spending time in jewelry meccas of Asia, Bali’s shores have drawn her back again and again. “Natural and cultural beauty is a part of everyday life here. It is unrivalled. Beautiful, relaxed smiles are everywhere in Bali,” she says. “I have traveled across Southeast Asia, and I must say that it is a designer’s joy to be able to work with Balinese artisans.”

not have the patience for,” she says, referring to the traditional Balinese jewelry-making technique named after the sound of a small hammer stamping out intricate details in a design – ‘plong, plong, plong.’

Tricia says she never limits herself when it comes to materials. Her pieces incorporate a wide range of components including silver, gold, copper, brass, gemstones, resins, leather and even snakeskin.

Whatever the material, howerver, in Tricia’s eyes technique is still king. “When I have interns come to me from prestigious colleges in Jakarta and Bandung in Java, the ¿rst thing I get them to do is take a jewelry class and hand make something in silver. This is to ensure they understand how the metal works, which then helps them with understanding the processes of design and manufacture.”

as a limitation, Martina views the lack of a certain material as a design challenge that encourages greater creativity. “As they say, necessity becomes the mother of invention. Right now, I am working with Indonesian seeds and holy woods, and also using crystals from Kalimantan that we have hand cut to ¿t our designs.”

Martina says that designing jewelry in Bali is akin to working in a living, breathing giant studio. “Often an idea for a design comes from an impulse to transform – turning a feeling into something tangible, a material or technique into a form,” she says. “I am inspired by many things: the purity of form; materials and techniques; the reason for or message behind a symbol; as well as old and new trends.”

Tricia’s jewelry can be found in a number of boutiques and galleries across the island. She also exports her pieces to the United States, Singapore, Australia and Japan. www.nagicia.com Maru Jewelry

Nagicia’s elegant, hand-made and cast, pieces certainly make the most of local talent. While Tricia remains involved in the production process, from concept to marketing, she says that it is the artisans who are the driving force behind the line’s success. Signi¿cantly, most of Nagicia’s pieces combine contemporary forms and organic textures with Bali’s traditional jewelry making techniques. “With so many skilled artisans around, it is little wonder that the island’s thriving jewelry scene draws designers from all corners of the globe,” she says.

Having studied ¿ne arts and later sculpture in New York and Paris, Tricia began handcrafting jewelry during her apprenticeship with a renowned furniture maker Norman Peterson in San Francisco. Building on this, Tricia moved to New York where she landed an apprenticeship with Jenny Lessard, a high-end designer and goldsmith.

Maru began as a gallery in 2005, at a time when exhibition space was still scarce in Bali. Martina Urbas, a goldsmith designer, says that the Maru jewelry brand took form during the conceptual development phase of the gallery. Today, Martina continues to design and produce collections in an ever-growing commerciallyinfluenced environment, while holding true to the concept of original and inspired designs, high quality craftsmanship, service, and good working conditions for everyone involved.

Martina has been fascinated by jewelry and costume since she was a child. She used to tie leather strings to her wrists, hang talismans on her neck and glue pearls In 1997, Tricia’s talent to her earlobes – all in an effort to change her caught the eye of John appearance and take on different personas. “When I Hardy who brought her was growing up as a teenager in Algeria, I was very to Bali to manage his impressed by the jewelry of the Kabili tribal women: the s a m p l e - m a k i n g designs, and their ¿erce, female independence. Looking department. Never one back, these were already the signals of the direction I to shy away from a would eventually take, from studying anthropology, c h a l l e n g e , T r i c i a completing a fine arts degree and becoming a accepted and left the goldsmith.” big apple for the island of the gods. The idea for Today, Maru’s designs are grounded in Balinese Nagicia (a portmanteau techniques, such as granulation, an ancient art form of of Naga and Tricia) was born a few years later, in 2001, applying tiny balls of gold or silver to create raised during Tricia’s trip to Nepal. “After working for John patterns and forms. Martina also often works with wire Hardy, I traveled in Asia for a year. I tried to make jewelry techniques, which originated in Sumba, as well as in Nepal and Jaipur, but I felt drawn back to the beauty, intricate wirework from Yogyakarta. “Our designs are culture and artisans of Bali,” she says. often a fusion of more than one technique, hence my ‘Indonesian Inspired’ collection, which continues to grow.

To further her dream, Tricia forged connections with Our jewelers are skilled in a range of traditional jewelry Balinese and Javanese artisans, the very people whose making techniques from both Bali and Java,” she says. skills made such an impression on her when she was “We work together as a team, and I remain active in all ¿rst working on the island. “Today, I still work with a the stages of design and production.”

Balinese sample maker who works from his humble and immaculate home in the village of Celuk, [Bali’s mecca While Martina sources the majority of her materials for silver and goldsmiths]. He specializes in the ‘lotus locally, she says that their availability often determines plong’ technique that so many jewelers these days do the design process. However, rather than seeing this

A few years ago Martina returned to what inspired her earlier in life: talismans and symbols. “I ended up working on a big group of collections that we call ‘Maru Spirit,’ interpreting and offering our designs to a clientele attracted by spiritual references, and interested in the origins and meanings of symbols and their signi¿cance,” she says. “I have always been attracted to, and fascinated by, the symbolic referencing and art of spiritual and religious paths and how they endure through time.”

Maru Jewelry can be found in boutiques and galleries across Bali, including Maru Jewelry store in Seminyak. www.marubali.com If you are feeling inspired, why not craft your own unique adornment at one of Bali’s jewelry making workshops.

Here are two centers where aspiring silversmiths can unleash their creative genius.

Studio Perak Both a jewelry store and studio, Perak offers daily (except Sundays) three-hour classes for jewelry enthusiasts. Run by Ketut Darmawan, who uses traditional Balinese techniques and equipment to craft his line of modern jewelry, the classes start with students designing their ornaments – usually rings or pendants - on a piece of paper. After the designs are cut out from a sheet of silver and ¿led, students use decorative techniques such as hammering, etching and buf¿ng to complete their adornments. The course includes 5 grams of silver. http://www.studioperak.com Sanur Jewellery Studio Sanur Jewellery Studio offers a wide range of jewelry making workshops, classes and courses. Tailored to both kids and adults, the basic workshops cover doming, cold connectivity, chain making and granulation. While the short one or two day workshops are perfect for holidaymakers, expats with an interest in jewelry can join one of the studio’s longer beginner courses – there are three levels on offer, each one running for a month.

In fact, many who complete a daylong workshop get so ¿red up that they end up enrolling in one of the studio’s longer courses. http://www.sanurjewellerystudio.com
