This Sporting Life SOCCER The Coaltrans Bali Charity Soccer 6’s were held successfully on Saturday June 2nd at the Hotel Grand Bali Beach in Sanur.With teams from as afar as Shanghai and Mumbai and closer to home like Singapore as well as local teams of both expats and Balinese, the Coaltrans Bali Charity Soccer 6’s definitely had an international flavour. Teams competed in two divisons Open and Veteran (35+). In the Veterans the winners were Putra Tresna of Denpasar, followed by local team Sanur and the evergreen Bali Bulldogs. A special mention to the Bulldogs, who put their team together with 24 hours notice, and charged forth to the 3rd place. In the open division, the Denpasar team of Wistra held off the challenge of the Singapore Pirates FC to win the cup. DHL from Shanghai beat the Belgian expat BLAS from Singapore for 3rd place. Many thanks to the sponsors Coaltrans, BIMC and RJHgroup.

A great day by all with Steve of Y Sports Bar setting up the bar. Also, everyone in the cricket family would like to thank Hatten Wines for their support of the Bali Cricket League this year and hope its the start of a long relationship for the continual development of Cricket in Bali.

CRICKET HATTEN WINES BALI CRICKET LEAGUE 2012 WESTCOAST CC 96 def BSF GIANYAR 87 03 JUNE 12: Captain Rai Baskara of BSF Gianyar won the toss but decided to bowl. WCCC started well until Captain Rai took the wicket of the other Captian Mick. Soon after Khrisna took 2 wickets in a row in his first over for the day. Wayan Sam and Matt steadied the ship for a short time until Matt was unfortunately run out then Wayan Sam was bowled off the bowling of one of his students, Tomy, in his first ball for the day. Steve did well to bat the innings out. With 9 players, WCCC finished all out for 96. BSF Gianyar started the innings with opening batsman Wisnu out lbw by Mooka in the very first ball of the innings. Next over, Wayan Sam who wanted revenge on Tomy, did just that by bowling him out in his first ball for the day. Khrisna and Isa took charge and made a good partnership together. Khrisna batted patiently and Isa supporting well with 24 in a low scoring match. However, the tide turned when Khrisna and Gung Man were bowled in succesive balls. BSF Gianyar needed 11 runs to win off the last 3 overs but the decisive move was made when Mat Larkin was moved to the the Northern end for his last over. He took 3 wickets in 4 balls including a brilliant diving C&B and, unknowingly, throwing the ball to the other end of the field in celebration.

AWARDS: Player of the Series - I Kadek Putra Dharmawan (UCC) Man of the Grand Final - I Gede Sude Arsa (UCC) Bowler of the Series - Ross Terry (Scarborough Sharks) Batsman of the Series - Les Nimmet (Bintang Bandits) Fielder of the Series - I Gusti Ngurah Ari Putra aka Rah Gus (Gianyar Red Ants) Champion Team (Most Points) - Bintang Bandits Well Done to John & Maureen Stewart for putting in a lot of hard work to get this tournament off the ground. Everybody involved enjoyed the week where the young Balinese players mingled with the experienced Aussie teams. Already, a few extra Aussie teams have committed to play for next year, so it seems the Bali International Twenty20 Cup is here to stay on the Bali sporting calender.

Bali Street Kids, The Unfortunate Truth Preserving the Childhood of Indonesia’s Impoverished Children By Skye Laphroaig

Those miserable looking kids seen begging in the intersections or ‘working’ the streets in the slums of Kuta, come from the poorest areas of Bali. They are sent to the city by their family to beg for money and make their parents more income. These kids have no proper shelter, food, education or attention. They are often traumatized victims of abuse from various adults. Without our help, they will eventually learn to survive as a ‘street boss’ of younger children or turn to the tourist sex industry, which has thrived on the island for the last 20 years. The survival instinct is strong in Bali and some parents have exposed their children to a dangerous and deprived way of life. These street kids are among the most disadvantaged individuals in Indonesia. Ya y a s a n K a s i h Peduli Anak (loving care for children) is a registered nonprofit organization, which started providing services to Balinese street children in 2007. The Foundation assists the Bali street children in a transparent way, with the help of local and international volunteers. Their mission is to offer loving support to disadvantaged children as well as provide an education, and encourage the advancement of new skills; giving them the opportunity of a satisfying and productive life as good citizens. BRACELETS If you have been out for an evening in Bali, you will have noticed hoards of street kids shaking their bracelets at you. The desperation and exasperation in the children’s faces can be overwhelming. They start working from the age of four and are usually ‘owned’ by a boss who takes most of the money and gives a fraction of the ‘take’ to parents in the village. If a child does not bring back enough earnings, they cannot come ‘home’ and physical violence against them is common. They have no skills or schooling and live difficult, painful lives. Hunger, thirst and dirty clothing are normal for them. They work long hours on street corners in the sun selling bracelets, walking the streets or just begging. Late at night they mix with prostitutes and foreigners around bars and discotheques. When the kids become too old and not ‘cute enough’ to get tourist money, they search for any possible way to make money. EXPLOITATION Bali retains its glamorous status as one of the world’s favourite tourist destinations, but the unfortunate truth is that thousands of Bali residents live in extreme poverty. In any developing country there’s begging, but in Indonesia adults can exploit their children in many ways - one way is by pimping them out to beg on the streets. The kids are good at English and it’s easy for tourists to give them a few dollars (which can feed a family for a week here) but when you give money to a child begging or selling on the street, someone else gets that money: They give your donation to their ‘boss’, an adult who typically does not work and treats them abusively. Inadvertently, tourists encourage this sad life to continue with their donations; and for young girls this can develop into working for the sex trade. The mothers themselves come from an impoverished background; they are illiterate and have no way of earning a living other than by keeping watch, as their children beg to the tourists. The parents make children feel guilty if they do not continue to provide income for the family, pressuring them to make money even if they are living in residence at YKPA. So the main aim at YKPA is to encourage children out of this spiral of abuse and into school. SHELTER AND HOME The YPKA Foundation has a shelter where sick and tired kids can visit and live free from abuse in a supportive environment, learning to trust the adults caring for them. The Yayasan is a modest twostory building accommodating happy and healthy children and brimming with love. When the kids first arrive they typically have skin infestations or infections, malnutrition, poorly healing injuries, and emotional distress. At YPKA they have clean clothing, good hygiene and nutritious meals for the first time. Most of these children have had no schooling, so YKPA provides classes and tutoring and their education also comes from attending special

events, sport competitions and local trips. Volunteers give extra classes in art, Balinese dance and swimming. The children are learning how to integrate themselves into society and to feel valued for whom they are, not for how much they obtain from begging. These children have learned to live without health, dental care, adequate food and caring from an adult. The Foundations number one goal is to replace what’s been missing and refocus them on the path towards a normal childhood.

After gaining the children’s trust, Putu asked them what they wanted. The children universally said they “wanted to learn to read”. We found the beach was a suitable location for learning because the security could not catch them there. Soon, every Saturday afternoon many street children came to learn on our tarp at the beach, followed by a meal and drink. Slowly, and without planning, our home became a shelter, an orphanage, and a school.

WHERE DO THEY COME FROM? Nearly all of the children come from several villages in the East. The villages are located on the side of an active volcano, which last erupted in 1967 and many houses stretch way up to the summit. There are approximately 5,000 people in each village, spread over great distances with no proper roads. A whole family sleeps in one small room with mold growing inside. The kids are thin, dirty and wear no shoes and they eat mostly rice. Local villagers will tell you about the lack of work here because farming and agriculture can be almost futile due to the extreme absence of water for six months of the year. But there are opportunities for those who want them, and some parents do move to the city or to Kintamani in favour of employment. The other parents have created a subculture characterized by getting married around the age of 14, having many babies, and when they are old enough, sending them to the city to work as street kids. It’s important to remember, there are many poor people in villages all around Bali who would never send their kids to the city to beg. THE SOLUTION Street children in Kuta have only one advocate for shelter, YKPA, and over several years the kids and their communities have seen how much these outsiders care for them and have learned to trust the foundation. You cannot just take children off the streets without addressing some of the bigger issues, such as needing their parents consent. The parents are unlikely to give consent unless you guarantee their family income will not be taken away, so YKPA finds alternative ways to raise sustainable earnings for the families. Only then will the families consent to their children staying in Denpasar, going to school and being well cared for. One way to get support from the parents is to make sure they earn the same amount of money as working the streets by creating handicrafts, part time after school. This income can amount to more than a massage job in Kuta. But when the families and villages rely solely on their offspring, Yayasan Kasih Peduli Anak has a big challenge ahead; what happens when these kids grow into teenagers, and adults? YKPA Founders Putu Etiartinia and Michael Pate agreed to share some facts with our readers about life on the streets for Balinese kids.

“Most of the kids have no known birthday, so every Valentines Day we have a group birthday”, says Michael. “ This year we will take them to Surabaya and Malang and stay with friends at family homes to give the kids a cultural/religious/geographic learning experience”. How did you first get involved with the organization? Putu Etiartini and I decided to ‘understand’ the situation with street children in Kuta seven years ago. We went into the streets at all hours and spent time with them. Gradually over time (and with ice cream) they came to trust us. Tell me about the Director Ibu Putu Etiartini When Putu became YKPA founder, I took to advising. Putu is a Balinese mother with a big heart who cares deeply for the disadvantaged. She was initially a businesswoman until the Bali bombing drove her to bankruptcy, now she is the driving force behind the organization and its growing number of children. Give me a brief history of the organization since it opened in 2007?

Why was the beach project stopped? The first ‘beach school’ was held at the cemetery area north of Discovery Mall in Kuta. This was arranged between Putu and city officials. For about two years around 10-35 children would attend every Saturday afternoon. But then we moved to Double Six beach for another year because it was more suitable for the children. We were then told to move on by that areas’ official. No reason was given and no discussion was allowed. How many children current reside in your YKPA caring home? There are 26 kids in residence and they all go to school, but a number of kids who are still begging receive informal schooling. There are various schools being attended, depending on the child’s age and skill level. How do you gain the trust of a street child? How does one gain trust of any discriminated, and abused child? Consistently being present where they work, providing food, offering to treat health injuries, demonstrating trustworthiness and showing an interest in them as individuals. Why do girls end up in sex massage parlours and tourist bars? Young teen girls want the same ‘big’ money from prostitution they see their older girlfriends earning. They are less able to beg successfully and have no skills. Massage does not pay much beyond survival needs so doing extra services helps raise extra income. There is no understanding of sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS, or avoiding pregnancy. We don’t understand how girls at age 14 without education or massage certificate can work doing massage without officials stopping them. What is the Girl Effect? When you improve a girl’s life through education, health, safety, and opportunity, the changes have a positive ripple effect. As an educated mother, an active, productive citizen and a prepared employee, a girl is the most influential force in her community to break the cycle of poverty. YKPA endeavours to help girls leave the streets whenever possible. Why did Paris Hilton take an interest? Paris’s agent contacted us to see if we could meet her because she was too busy packing to visit us. Putu and many kids went to her hotel and received a gift bag of toiletries in a plastic bag and had lots of photos taken. She promised to help and send Christmas presents but that never happened. However, she did Twitter millions of people with our website address! Describe what happens to the kids during a conflict with security. Kids are sometimes rounded up by security staff, they are held for several hours, relieved of their begging money, their heads are shaved in a crude manner (boys and girls), and they are made to sleep on the floor after being soaked with water. They are often taken to a location far away at night and dropped off. The children must return by foot through the night in order to beg the next day on their patch. Please give generously via the website. These children need your private donations to be able to stay in the YKPA house or they will end up back on the streets. http://www.ykpa.org Copyright © 2012 Bali Advertiser You can read all past articles of BA Feature Article at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

HECTOR’S C/Ns/G-21 March 12

Stir Slowly, Drink at Leisure The May edition of the 2012 Ubud Writers and Readers Festival newsletter made it out with a week to go before it was June – it popped into the Diary’s in-box on May 26. And since it was leading off with a bit of a blurb about the Bali Emerging Writers Festival (which had been advertised as scheduled for May 25-27) one assumes deadlines in festival-land are as notional as any on this island. But never mind. BEWF is beaut, even if acronyms are as prevalent as litter. This year’s was the second and organisers said it presented a more colourful line-up than the inaugural acronym last year. Said UWRF community development manager Kadek Sri Purnami, and we quote verbatim (it’s not our grammar): “We are trying to present as diverse and colourful voices as possible. These young writers, some write with words, some with lights and images, will take the audience into the kaleidoscopic world of contemporary Bali.” We’re sure it was a blast – and we’re glad about that too. Perhaps the 2012 UWRF Newsletter for June, which apparently should reach us just before it is July, will give us some idea of how it actually went. The festival took place (May 27-29) at Serambi Arts Antida, the hot Denpasar alternative art space. Meanwhile, festival founder and fragrant coffee drinker Janet DeNeefe is being as shy as ever about the international programme for this year’s big show, scheduled for October 3-7. A little note in the aforementioned newsletter coyly states: “While the list of international authors for the UWRF 2012 is tightly embargoed, several of the authors on that list were featured at the Sydney Writers Festival, recently concluded.” We do know of one author invited to participate: Uli Schmetzer, who lives half the year in Venice and half in Australia and the Philippines. He and his lovely Italian wife Tiziana, who cooks the most marvellous pasta, lent us their pushbikes in Beijing 20 years ago (we gave them back) as well as their driver, a redoubtable fellow called Fang who knew but one word of a language other than Mandarin. Unfortunately this was “nyet,” which did not get us very far. Well, only to the nearest bit of the Great Wall. As to other internationals, well, just for fun, we’ll scribble out a list, blindfold ourselves, and play a literary version of pin the tail on the donkey.

Help the Cause: Buzz Off As noted above, a diarist’s reading must be very wide. Or else you miss all sorts of things that give you a huge laugh. So we propose to share with you some other advice recently to hand – we found it online and it would be amusing to suggest this resulted from a tip-off – that urges women to select a vibrator that is eco-friendly. It notes – this was a surprise to the Diary – that there are more makes of vibrators on the market than there are models of cars on the roads. Gee, that intelligence hits the spot. It’s a wonder poor old Gaia hasn’t been knocked out of her orbit with all the under-the-counterpane buzzing that must be going on. And it says that choosing a brand, let alone a single product, can be daunting; it kindly offers to help narrow your search. It suggests you choose a rechargeable vibrator for maximum sensation with minimum ecological footprint. Apparently a typical user can deplete up to four batteries a week on a battery operated vibrator – that’s more than 200 dead batteries a year. (How many extinct libidos, we wonder?) Oh yes – and we’re thinking that would have to be the Big O – it also says that responsible manufacturing is important for your vibrator (they are sentient as well as sensory?) and suggests you seek out companies that share your values. Perhaps you should just look for one that gives you a nice warm buzz.

Or Otherwise... A diarist also needs a quick eye, as well a deep appreciation for delicious double entendres. LinkedIn’s handy People You May Know feature – which as we noted recently unearthed for us poor Angus McCaskill, who is no longer counted among our population – popped up another unknown name the other day. We won’t name the fellow, since he seems to be a Canadian and might therefore respond by saying “Eh?” or else entirely miss the joke. But he’s the manager of a mining industry outfit whose name might cause an involuntary appreciative intake of breath among any number of distressed gentlewomen hereabouts: Cougar Drilling Solutions.

Fame à un Prix Those among us who like to follow the risible side of Australian politics – it’s a broad field of study – have been transfixed

of late at the thought of supersized Queensland mining magnate Clive Palmer running for parliament, though not for the Whirling Dervish Party, which is such a pity. He’d like to be a Liberal MP instead, which he’d surely find is absolutely no fun at all. Apparently he’s serious about it all but the idea went straight into our Too Silly file, along with some of Palmer’s other titanic ideas. As well as desiring to pay no tax on his mines (paying tax is for wimps and non-whirling dervishes) Palmer wants to build an “unsinkable” modern version of the Titanic that some people – Céline Dion, Kate Winslett and Leonardo DiCaprio prominently among them, one imagines – will clearly remember was also unsinkable but which nevertheless sank on its maiden voyage in 1912 after running full-pelt into an eminently avoidable iceberg. He also wants to build a Zeppelin, though he promises it wouldn’t be a Hindenburg exploding one. It was therefore fun to find in a recent edition of the fine French satirical newspaper Le Canard enchainé – it had been donated to The Cage by some kind French visitors – a little item by Jean-Luc Porquet, who writes a lovely column aptly named “Peouf!” It was headlined “Trésor national vivant” (“Living National Treasure”). The piece primarily concerned the discarded Nicolas Sarkozy who was recently unelected as President of the Republic.

NC/Ns/U-30 May. 12

It was Sarkozy’s titanic political misadventures which principally informed Porquet’s pointed prose. But unfortunately, while Palmer’s Australian national treasure feat may be recognised in France and be of some peripheral utility to satirists having a go at poor M. Sarkozy, his living clay is less well known. Porquet called him Clive Barker. Perhaps he was thinking of Ronnie, the Brit comic who was nearly as round. But he could just have been joking. He seems to share the widely held view that Clive Palmer is barking mad.

More Sax Please The delectable Edwina Blush will soon be back in Bali, which is good news for Villa Kitty at Ubud – of which she is an ambassador – and people, like your diarist, who love saxy jazz and the (unfortunately now largely notional) concept of smoky bars and attractively accommodating company. She’ll be playing a six-week gig here with her Balinese sextet at Three Monkeys Sanur after the June 15 launch in Sydney of her latest album, Sea For Cats. We’ll get along to a session or two. The album’s available from various download sites including iTunes, the Diary’s preferred legal provider. Half the proceeds of sales go to Villa Kitty to provide veterinary care and – as Edwina unblushingly puts it – much needed population control measures (she adds: “Frisky little darlings”). Villa Kitty is on Facebook, by the way. Founder and Chief Meow Elizabeth Grant Suttie would love to hear from you.

Fiesta Time El Kabron, the cliff-top watering hole at Bingin on the Bukit where host David Iglesias Megias tempts patrons with all sorts of delights, including Catalan and other Spanish treats, celebrated its first birthday with a great little party on June 10. It was a good chance to catch up with old friends – though none of them are old in the literal sense – including our Most Favoured Argentine, artist-architect Leticia Balacek, who has recently been in Shanghai. We buttonholed her at the do and asked if, as a result of her Sino experiences, her word was still her Bund. Sorry.

No Kidding We hear from the delightful Alicia Budihardja, chief spruiker at Conrad Bali where Frenchman Jean-Sebastien Kling is now general manager that the property is going after the kids in a big way. It has launched a new family package that offers free meals and recreational and cultural activities to youngsters while their parents are enjoying the definitely more relaxing and possibly more cerebral aspects of the place. Kling wants to help parents unwind on an ultimate getaway. That’s a nice thought. They deserve a break.

Jennifer Mackenzie: Poet

Jennifer Mackenzie was born in M e l b o u r n e , Australia. She studied Literature and Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne, earning a Masters Degree on the historical fiction of Pramoedya Ananta Toer, with special reference to his novel “Arus Balik”. As a student Jennifer enjoyed both painting and writing, but chose writing, though she is still very much involved in the visual arts. Her first visit to Indonesia was in 1975. Since then she has travelled all over Asia, and worked from 2000 to 2003 at the Qingdao International School in China. Currently Jennifer teaches English to International students at the University of Melbourne and at Hawthorn English Language Centre. A new edition of Jennifer’s narrative poem Borobudur, first brought out in 2009, has just been published by Lontar in Jakarta, as Borobudur and Other Poems. Where did you grow up? I grew up in the outer suburbs of Melbourne. At that time, the area was relatively undeveloped – there were apple orchards at the end of our street. I was painfully shy and spent most of my time alone. I learnt to read and write before I went to school, and spent most of my time in front of a blackboard developing a code for letters and numbers! Socially, I found school an absolute nightmare! My favourite person was my grandfather. He was very good at drawing, and he used to take me out sketching. I remember those excursions fondly, and was determined to be some kind of artist. When were you last in Bali? I was a guest at the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival in 2009. A special reading at Borobudur was held as part of that festival, and it was a very moving experience to go back there, and to read pieces from my Borobudur and Other Poems. What brings you to Indonesia this time? I shall be launching Borobudur and Other Poems at the second Makassar International Writers Festival taking place from June 13th to the 18th. I will also be visiting Bali for a special launch and reading sponsored by Biku Restaurant and Ganesha Bookstores.

How did you become interested in writing about Indonesia? My first trip outside of Australia was to Bali and Java, and the beauty of the landscape made a deep impression. Borobudur was being restored at the time, and ever since reading Shelley’s Ozymandias, I’ve shared the Romantics’ love of ruins!

Holy Cow!

What drew you to write a long narrative poem about Borobudur?

For all your beef jerky needs C/Ns/G-07 Mar. 12

I’d received a travelling scholarship to write a series of poems on contemporary Indonesia. I did publish a few of them, but felt dissatisfied with the limitations of my knowledge. On returning to Borobudur, I felt it was the place, the architecture, to research. I thought about what it would be like to design such a temple, and felt the excitement of researching a project created by such an artist. I also felt strangely at home there, an experience I also had in Sarnath in India, where the Buddha gave his First Sermon. How did research contribute to your vision for the poem? The most important aspect of my research was my reading of the Old Javanese Kakawin, which were miraculously transported to Bali after the fall of Majapahit. The vision and sensibility of these ancient poets, their depiction of landscape and character, were very appealing as well as informative. Aesthetically, they connected to my interest in Modernist poetics, to poets such as Pound and Wallace Stevens. What was Java like at the time? When I began writing the poem, I thought of the continent of Australia, and of the continent of Asia, and what was happening there in the 9th century. In terms of the natural environment, Java was extraordinarily beautiful. Culturally, it was a time of extraordinary travel and cultural exchange, of deep creativity. Borobudur’s architect actually journeyed beyond Java to China and India. The travels of Chinese Buddhist monks, travelling to India in search of manuscripts, and the writings of Kukai, founder of Shingon Buddhism, were inspirational. Kukai, like Gunavarman in my poem, collected manuscripts and paintings, ran out of money and had trouble with his patron! You mean Borobudur is not totally unique? There are significant archaeological connections between Borobudur and Nalanda in Bihar in India, the site of a significant Buddhist university at the time. Tiny bronzes originating in Nalanda have been found at Borobudur during its excavation, and I refer to those bronzes at the very end of the poem: “dawn/fires burn randomly/I bury also at random my collection/of tiny bronzes/(contemplated that) treasure clotted in clay”. The Indian stupa is certainly a prototype. In the section of Borobudur, entitled Journeys to the Interior, Gunavarman sees the stupa at Sanchi as not as it was, “but as at some other place/in the jungle south of Merapi/its constituency grave/as if aware of a volcanic origin”. India provides the education, but also an antithetical vision for the architect. Where and when will the reading take place? At Biku Café for Afternoon Tea at 4pm on June 19th. Later in the week, on Thursday the 21st, the Australian Embassy will be hosting a reading in Jakarta.

Get the Gringo After a robbery, an American criminal escapes some pursuing police cars by crashing his own car through the border fence which separates America from Mexico. Even so, the American still finishes up in a Mexican prison, where he has to rely on a ten year old boy to help him navigate through this strange and dangerous environment. Mel Gibson may be starting to show his age, but, this movie proves that he can still pull out all of the stops when needed. Perhaps, nobody knows better how to showcase Mel’s particular talents than himself, so, Mel writes, produces, and stars in this entertaining prison story. Together with director Adrian Grunberg, Mel makes a surprisingly good film, full of lots of atmosphere, lots of action, and lots of unexpected humor. Black Gold French director Jean-Jacques Annaud has some impressive movies to his credit, which include: ‘The Name of the Rose’ (1986), ‘Seven Years in Tibet’ (1997), and ‘Enemy at the Gate’ ( 2001). His latest movie, ‘Black Gold’, is quite superb, and it’s set in Arabia in the 1930s. After a war between two Sultans, a no-man’s land is established to separate their states. However, when prospectors find oil in this barren strip, tensions between the Sultans over ownership of the oil start to develop. A young Arab Prince’s allegiance is torn between his conservative father and progressive father-in-law, when another war seems imminent. Annaud shoots his film in an epic style, but, it’s also a tender love story. In addition, he explores the meaning of the Muslim faith in a sensitive and thoughtful manner. Featuring a cast of unknown actors, Antonio Banderas stars as the liberal but scheming Sultan. John Carter In 1868 a heroic American farmer is teleported to Mars. There he quickly becomes involved in a Martian civil war, while, he desperately tries to find some way of returning to Earth. The movie is a bizarre combination of a Sci-Fi fantasy meeting a Roman gladiator sword and sandal epic. However, as this is a Disney production, you can be sure that it contains nothing too horrific for the kiddies. The movie is pretty convoluted though, so a lot of explanation may be required. Anyway, all the action should keep the young ones glued to the screen for a couple of hours. Director Andrew Stanton supervises the special effects, while, new Hollywood heartthrob Taylor Kitsch makes a successful transition from Television to the Silver Screen. Love Never Dies To be perfectly honest, I think this DVD is a waste of time. It’s really just Andrew Lloyd Webber cashing-in on a successful formula by making a sequel to ‘The Phantom of the Opera’. Ten years have passed since the incidents at the Paris Opera, and the Phantom is now living in America on Coney Island, where he runs a freak-show. The Phantom still lusts after the luscious opera-singer Christine Daae, and little does she know that he has set in motion enticements to bring her to his stage. The story is incredibly trite, and the music soppy and sentimental. But, what more

Haywire Ever since his first film ‘sex, lies and videotape’ appeared in 1989, American director Steven Soderbergh has been working his way through a vast variety of movie genres. His latest piece is an espionage thriller. Due to economic restraints the CIA contracts some of its missions out to private enterprise, however, when something goes ‘haywire’ in Barcelona, they decide to terminate one of their contracted employees. This assassin is shrewd enough to escape their net, and she then sets about finding out why she was ‘burnt’. The movie takes a considerable amount of time to reveal its secrets, but, as you await the outcome, Soderbergh supplies some extremely good action sequences, which brilliantly display his genius at creating visual tension and suspense. The movie features an extraordinary cast, which includes: Gina Carano, Michael Fassbender, Ewan McGregor, Bill Paxton, Channing Tatum, Antonio Banderas and Michael Douglas. All are excellent.

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

DON’T LET THEM BUG YOU Not everyone shares my enthusiasm for big, crunchy bugs.

very specific plants.”

Back in 1998 when I was on a writing assignment in East Timor, an Indonesian friend and I were staying at a rustic house in the mountains north of Dili. After dark a generator powered a few light bulbs and one on the balcony lit up a big white wall. At night, this became a stage for a remarkable cast of bugs attracted to the light. Huge bugs, weird bugs, prehistoric-looking bugs… they all arrived to strut and lurk on the brightly lit wall. Big bugs stalked smaller bugs. Bats and lizards made cameo appearances from dark corners, swooping on and off stage to score a snack. One ambitious cicak clamped down on a huge beetle twice his size and stood there, flummoxed, as a frill of long, active legs bristled from his mouth. It went on as long as the generator hummed, with an ever-changing cast of exotic creepy-crawlies. I was riveted in my chair. Sophie, who lived in a sterile apartment in Jakarta, thought it was disgusting. “Ugh! Bugs!” she wailed.

Bali’s rapid development is not only displacing wildlife like snakes, rodents and birds, but huge doses of pesticides in the agricultural sector and the practice of ‘fogging’ for mosquitoes displaces or kills millions of beneficial insects. As these chemicals wash down through the subak systems and into the soil, water table and rivers they contaminate wells, lakes and the seas, causing algae blooms which can kill fish. Dependence on pesticides becomes a vicious circle; the non-tolerant insect species die out, while the resistant ones mutate and become ever more resistant.

Yes, bugs. Where would we be without them?

Ecologists say that if all the humans were to suddenly vanish, the environment of Earth would improve, but if all the insects were to disappear it would be a disaster. Insects are an integral part of the ecosystem, while humans are often its worst enemy.

do cause ‘plagues’ of various sorts… recently, swarms of irritant caterpillars and the notorious ‘tomcat’ beetles.”

Insects are an integral part of the ecosystem, while humans are often its worst enemy. David Lowenthal, a Bali-based Englishman, recently held a photographic exhibit in Ubud of some of the absolutely gorgeous bugs to be found in Bali. A passionate environmentalist, he’s been a keen observer of insects and sea creatures since his teens. “The human population is totally out of control,” he says. “It took Homo sapiens approximately 150,000 generations to reach a population of one billion in 1870, but in the past 140 years alone we are well over 7 billion and heading for 11 billion people. These growth figures, combined with a massive rise in the middle classes around the world (all wanting more of everything instantly), are creating unprecedented pressures on the natural world. This in a way was the intended message from my ‘INSEXTS’ exhibition. Who are the real pests on the planet?” Because there are no short-term returns from studying bugs (or other wildlife) in Bali very little money, expertise and resources are allocated to researching the wild life here. The few books available are labours of love. David found it difficult to identify many of the bugs in his exhibition. This is the main reason he decided to create the website www.baliwildlife.com as a mini reference library-encyclopedia for as much of the wildlife in Bali as possible.

We’re happy to welcome the butterflies, dragonflies and bees but less happy to see cockroaches and scorpions. While I will tenderly relocate dazed beetles and leggy mantises from my bedroom to the great outdoors, I do draw the line at some of their bug brothers. What excuse can there possibly be for mosquitoes or bed bugs? The dreaded pediculosis pubis? Or the centipede, a sinuous, fast-moving creature that can reach a length of 35 centimetres (although mercifully not on Bali) and pack a beastly bite. I’ve been known to drop a heavy book on top of a centipede that suddenly appears in the house, then jump up and down on top of it as centipede legs fly in all directions. (Don’t try this with a Kindle.) But centipedes eat cockroaches, so it gets a bit complicated. Every time we remove one bug from the food chain, another goes hungry. I do feed locusts straight to the chickens… it’s either them or my lettuces. But most of them are doing their jobs controlling pests and making compost. I don’t let them bug me. David’s delightful photographs, which often capture Bali’s insects sharing a tender moment, are available as large mounted prints. Contact him at davidlowe2010@yahoo. co.uk

Insects serve as the largest source of food for many animals and birds, and these would quickly die out if insects disappeared. Without insects to pollinate food and flowering plants a huge number of other species, including ours, would quickly be in serious trouble. Insect pollinators are responsible for much of the food we eat. If the plants used to feed livestock vanished, so would meat. Fruit and most vegetables would disappear. So would cotton. About the only food in the market that can’t be traced back to a plant that was pollinated by an insect is the date. Dates have been cultivated for so long that they now only reproduce through the intervention of humans. Although most people refer to any sort of creepy-crawly as a bug, scientists use the term ‘arthropod’ to refer to insects, spiders and other critters. (The Latin word insectum means ‘with a notched or divided body’.) They are among the most diverse groups of animals on the planet, including more than a million described species, with probably millions of others awaiting classification, and representing more than half of all known living organisms. There are over 500,000 kinds of beetles alone, which seems pretty extravagant. And of those one million species, under one percent are considered to be serious pests. Most are either harmless or beneficial to humans and agriculture. “Insects have been around for about 400 million years. Each has its place in the food chain, providing food to all manner of predatory insects and arachnids as well as the ‘higher’ animals of which birds are perhaps the most obvious,” explained Ron Lilley, a Sanur-based naturalist I often turn to when writing about Bali’s creatures. “They act as decomposers in the soil, the herbivores chew up the leaves, the carnivorous beetles eat the other bugs, and the carrion feeders dispose of all the carcasses that litter the island. Then there are the various and many pollinators; some are generalists, while others are attracted to the nectars of only

“Bali is going through a major transformation at this time,” he pointed out. “With a rise in the Balinese population, a construction boom, habitat loss, mass Indonesian and foreign tourism and a huge increase in the numbers of trucks, cars and motorbikes I felt it was important to document what is here now in order to raise awareness. Hopefully the Baliwildlife website will gain attention and people will realize how many species we might lose through extinction in the coming years.”

While I will tenderly relocate dazed beetles and leggy mantises from my bedroom to the great outdoors, I do draw the line at some of their bug brothers Ron agrees. “I think there’s no doubt that changes in the local ecology through careless use of pesticides, rises in temperature and other weather changes are currently affecting the ecological balance here in several dramatic ways. Because bugs are part of much bigger biological systems, environmental changes like the removal of predators can and

Say What? Question: Our fifteen year old grandson and his great uncle recently had an uncomfortable exchange of words at a family gathering. The great uncle was telling our grandson something, and our grandson wasn’t listening as he was trying to hear what his mother was asking him at the same time. In a poor choice of words, our grandson said, “I quit listening to you a long time ago.” I pointed out to him that he should instead have said, “I couldn’t hear you because I was trying to hear what my mother was saying,” but, he didn’t. His great uncle, who has a short temper and a tendency to be impatient and intolerant of others, replied by calling him an a-hole. Should our grandson apologize and try to explain. This, in my opinion would show maturity. Or, should it just be left alone? The uncle has been kind to our grandson, teaching him the nuances of coin collecting and buying him the latest Harry Potter books, etc.. What is best to be done here? Dr. ZZ: For the sake of occasions like this, there are erasers on the ends of pencils. The sooner your grandson apologizes, the more quickly everyone’s discomfort will pass. To say, “I apologize” is not necessarily an admission of fault or blame. Often the stronger person in a dispute is the one who apologizes in order to clear the air and restore harmony. My favorite approach to a sincere apology consists of 5 steps: (1) Be sure to apologize for a specific event or behavior rather than to make a blanket or general apology. In this case, “I apologize for saying the wrong thing to you the other day” ought to do just fine. (2) Mention how you know the act you’re apologizing for hurt the other person. (3) Explain that the behavior you’re apologizing for does not depict your highest conceptualization of who you are and how you behave, and that (4) if given the chance to do something like this in the future, you will act differently. Then (5) make a gesture of good faith by demonstrating through action that the next time will be different; extend yourself in some way that reflects your improved conduct as opposed to the unsatisfactory behavior. Share these steps with your grandson, and chances everyone involved will feel better and will learn from the process. Question: About six months ago, I parted ways with my best buddy because I felt as if he was always doing things to upset me and make me feel like I wasn’t his friend. Another person, my ex-girlfriend, was involved too. After my buddy and I fell out, the feelings never changed. I still feel lousy about my ex-girlfriend, but for some reason I couldn’t get angry at her. I was in love, and I couldn’t imagine letting her go. After suffering a lot of the same

C/E/G-11 Jan. 12

mistreatment from her, I found my love for her fade, and I realized who was really causing all the problems for me. I now feel stupid to have let love blind me like that. If something bad happened between my girlfriend and me, I would look to my buddy to fix it, and if he couldn’t, it was his fault. Although that made sense to me then, it sounds stupid now. I’ve tried a couple of times to get things right with my buddy, but he has declined my offers. It’s as if I don’t exist to him anymore. No one else understands what I’m going through. They don’t really care. I want my friend back. He was like a brother to me. I’m not saying he never did anything hurtful; I did hurtful things too. I just know that he was blamed for a lot of unnecessary things. People tell me to let it go, but I can’t accept the fact that it ended like it did. I have sent him emails telling him how I feel about everything, and how I wish we could talk again, but he hasn’t responded. I am determined to keep fighting, but I need to know if it’s helpless. I just think that everyone deserves a second chance. What do you think I should do? Dr. ZZ: The question above yours is about the power of apologies. You need to read it and apply the instructions to your situation. Just as importantly, you need to develop a level of responsibility and acceptance in the matter at hand. I don’t hear you “owning” what happened in the first person or taking “responsibility” (the ability to respond). To say “he was blamed” and “I blamed him” are two different ways of relating to the same set of circumstances. The only winning strategy is to take full responsibility for what is yours, to let go of trying to control people and outcomes you can’t control, and to come to peace with your life. My hunch is you’re not doing any of that.

NC/E/I-16 May 12

A decent roadmap is put forward in the Serenity Prayer: “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.” The only person any of us can change is ourselves. You need to own what you did in the matter, to apologize to others for any harm you may have caused them, and to let the chips fall as they may. Stop playing victim, and allow others the dignity you so desperately request for yourself. In the end, you can but make yourself loveable and likeable. Whether anybody else is going to ever love or even like you is not within your jurisdiction.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE JUNE 13 - JUNE 27, 2012

This fortnight includes the last week of our Eclipse cycle and the beginning of the second Gemini New Moon cycle as well as the first of the Uranus/Pluto squares. Jupiter enters Gemini on the 12th and the Sun enters Cancer on the 21st to mark the Winter Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. Uranus square Pluto is on the 24th. Mars revisits the degree it turned retrograde at during the last week of January and will enter the sign of Libra in early July. Mars was square to Sun and Venus during the Lunar and Venus eclipses, challenging the feminine within us all to speak up and out. As we were identified so strongly with her energy during both of them, we were propelled into alignment with our soul’s journey and a renewed sense of inspiration with regard to our next steps both personally and within the larger framework of our lives. The intensity of the square now prompts all of us to discard what is no longer necessary or relevant for us. The chart placement of these planets and their aspects will highlight the areas of life significantly activated for you. Jupiter in Gemini connects with Alcyone the Central Sun on the 12th, the same degree as the Solar Eclipse in May, which was in alignment with the Pleiades Star Group. Jupiter will promote communication and networking as the Consciousness Revolution takes hold uniting all in Oneness as Love sweeps the Planet. It is through forgiveness and compassion that we change the World. NEW MOON 28 Gemini 43 June 19, 2012 11:03 p.m.

ARIES All of this attention on Mars has you all fired up for action. There’s no doubt that there have been challenges within your relationships and a sense of urgency to all that you do. The Virgo juncture has had you doing your life in a very organized way. The thing is that as Mars moves into Libra there will be even more emphasis on relationship. It’s better to get it sorted now for the longer that you leave it the more deeply will the consequences be felt. Women are playing a key role in the lives of male Aries. Women from the past as well as new acquaintances. TAURUS Venus in the hearts, minds and view of everyone adds stimulus to your existence. All eyes were on Venus during the eclipse (media coverage was wide) and the conversation centred on Love. This happens to be one of your favourite topics, although things may not be all smooth sailing at this time in your life. As much as the emphasis is on Love, it tends to shine the Light on all that is other than itself. That is that the shadow also gets revealed. The easiest way through all of this is to let the past go. To forgive and forget and allow your heart to open to new possibilities.

GEMINI What a momentous month this has been. A once in a lifetime type birthday marking a particularly auspicious year for you. Let’s see now what all of this has in store for you. Basically it is about expecting the unexpected and with your ability to communicate with ease, unless your chart is seriously afflicted, then you will find yourself in the right place at the right time for synchronicity and ease to orchestrate the natural flow of your life. If you choose to push the river however, you could find yourself in deep water. Things could get a little hectic it you allow them to. CANCER This is our second Gemini New Moon cycle and it brings you together with more and more people expressing things that up until now may have been hidden. Some of the things that are being exposed are sensitive issues and as such may require a little delicacy and tact if there is anyone in the World capable of this, it is you. Perhaps the nervous system is feeling a little tattered and if so it maybe time to remove yourself from the centre of activity and take a little restorative time and maybe even a massage or two. Acupuncture is also good for this and will bring you rapidly into balance. LEO The Sun as your ruler is such an enormously important part of our Solar System and so then it stands to reason that you would be an important part of the World in which you shine. The emphasis placed on it during the Venus and Solar Eclipses marks a big turning point in your life. Like everyone else you are going through major transformation and releasing much. This is physically, psychologically and emotionally and they are all tied in together. As you release from one part of your being you correspondingly do so on all levels. Let your practise be one of gentle surrender.

LIBRA As you are another Venus ruled sign, you’ve been heavily influenced by this latest eclipse transit over the face of the Sun. As the Sun amplified your Venusian traits you were reunited with yourself as Love. The Divine manifestation of the feminine expression through communication. Venus in Gemini is teaching us a new way to Love and to live through our hearts rather than through our heads. Allow yourself to move through life as an expression of Grace itself and be the heart light for others to follow through this maze of changes that are upon us now. Release up all your old behaviours and patterns for purification. SCORPIO Riding on the crest of a wave now and it has the potential to be a tsunami. It’s better to let go with trust than to hold on until you are forced to let go. All will be taken care of in the long run and if things aren’t going according to plan right now, perhaps it’s not the moment for its manifestation. Give up your agendas and allow the flow of life itself to impulse you to make spontaneous decisions and changes. This is a grand moment on Earth when many cycles are converging on each other and you are here for the show. How special is that? If you’re feeling at all bogged down by the heaviness of life, shrug some of it off. SAGITTARIUS Jupiter changes signs this fortnight and you are ever so happy to feel the winds of change blowing in your hair and billowing out the sails and readying to set forth on a new adventure. It may not be as far afield as you had at first anticipated and in fact many of you will be taking up a course of study over the coming year that may entail you only making the short journey to and from. Movement nonetheless will be forthcoming. Others of you will be busy networking and communicating what you know from your intuition and higher wisdom, while others yet will be sharing their higher skills which have been on the shelf for some time. CAPRICORN Saturn is about to turn direct and will bring with it the urge to move beyond what you have known as your reality and then the Pluto square in your sign brings unprecedented changes to your life. Again it is too personal for me to specify here and it would do you good to shed some light on it through the interpretation of your astrological chart through analysis. Generally speaking however, business and spontaneity go hand in hand. New jobs and/or businesses for many of you. For sure old structures in your life and mind will be dissolving at a rapid rate. The key to these changes is “resistance is futile.” AQUARIUS You are by now well versed on the subject of revolutionary change occurring in your life and being as you yourself are very unpredictable; you will adapt well to sudden occurrences and surprise encounters. Flow with these changes rather than seeing obstacles. If a problem appears ask your guidance for the appropriate action or no action. You can see that it is safe for you to stand out from the crowd and to allow your brilliance and magnificence to shine. You’ve never been very good at blending in anyhow. Restructuring is a natural flow on from the changes that are implemented at the end of this month.

VIRGO As Mars in Virgo returns to its turning PISCES Neptune turned retrograde at the degree you will be inspired to pick up those beginning of the month on the Lunar Eclipse. projects from January that remain unfinished Any addictions were brought to the surface at and bring them to completion. You will feel a that time for healing. Emotions also are an addiction that can keep you bound in behaviors and sense of accomplishment once this is done and new situations that aren’t really in your highest and best doorways will open for you now. These new beginnings interest. Be brave enough during this cycle to find where will ask that you surrender some of the clutter from the you still cling to the patterns of the past unconsciously past that you’ve been holding on to. Let it effortlessly go and bring the light of love to them. You may sense a little and allow the process to be fun rather than face it with withdrawal as the cleansing takes place and then the true foreboding. Everything can bring you a sense of peace you will burst force in splendour and show you a life and joy if you but allow them to. It’s your attitude to life beyond your imagination. that matters.

Restaurant Review

By Gerry Williams www.gotolombok.com

Mediterranean on the Beach! Quah @ Qunci offers a feast of clean fresh Mediterranean flavours. The old menu has been re-worked and the result is quite amazing. The only problem is that this restaurant is situated in the luxury boutique resort of Qunci Vi l l a s , o v e r l o o k i n g t h e Mangsit beach on Lombok’s west coast. However the quality and the value at Quah make it worth writing about in the Bali Advertiser, particularly as more and more Bali residents are now taking the 20 minute flight to Lombok for short breaks. Even dishes that sound rather basic produce tastes on the palate that amaze. The Fijian style Ceviche is a mix of minced fish and prawn meat, marinated in lime juice and served in a hollowed-out yellow coconut. That old favourite Prawn Cocktail gets a makeover, with a fat juicy king prawn sitting in a citrus cocktail with leafy greens, served in a martini glass. Tuna Tartare is raw flesh chopped in cubes, marinated in lemon and a sprinkle of spices, served with slices of freshly baked foccacia. A couple of local options are a Soto Bandung, that delicate clear beef broth with fried soy beans and daikon added. Balinese Sate Lilit is on the menu, a minced mix of fish and prawn meat with Balinese spices, wrapped around lemongrass sticks and grilled over coconut embers. The accompanying rujak salad is of green mango and fresh coriander. The baby squid of Lombok always seem to produce a more tender finish than the rubber of their elders. The Squid Salad at Quah is no exception, with small rings of flesh that have been tossed with shredded cucumber and greens, slightly crunchy but still tender, drizzled with a yoghurt sauce and served on a long oblong black plate. It is a surprisingly generous serve for $6 but then that is the norm at this wonderful restaurant. Even if you are visiting Lombok on business, sitting at Quah whilst overlooking swimming pool, beach and ocean with Bali’s Mt. Agung on the cloudless horizon, you feel as if you are on holiday! The Chicken Salad is Moroccan style, the chicken marinated in preserved lemon, grilled and thinly cross-sliced then tossed with greens, sun-dried tomato and olives. A Carpaccio of Beef has been marinated and served French-Italian, Dijon mustard and Parmesan cheese, A Salad of Pear, Blue Cheese and Crushed Walnuts is tossed in an apple cider dressing. Pasta can be the vegetarian Penne Broccoli Arrabiata with an after taste of chilli, Spaghetti in a cream sauce of chicken, mushroom and water spinach, the traditional Vongole, spaghetti tossed with clams and other seafood or a Quah special; Penne Prawns and Crab ‘Bolognese’, the seafood being minced and pan-fried, bolognese style, instead of using the normal beef of Bologna.

and Red Carpet. NC/R/I-10 August 11

Other seafood dishes include Blackened Snapper Fillet with greens, ginger, orange and a hot bell pepper sauce served in a small jug on the side to use as you wish. The local Tuna be Tongkol is a tuna steak seasoned with spices, salt, pepper and lime and pan-fried. When cold the tuna is crumbled and mixed with that fiery Balinese favourite, sambal matah, then served with steamed rice to balance the heat. King Prawns are served ‘provencale’ with garlic, sun-dried tomato and those herbs of Provence. The small Lombok Lobsters, as with the local squid, are more tender than most. Split then coated with a mix of crushed almonds, herbs and lemon juice, they are grilled over fire. Goes very well with a glass of champers! The local touch in the mains menu is Lombok’s traditional Ayam Taliwang, chicken with enough of a spice kick to wake you up. The steak at Quah is imported Australian tenderloin, once again a generous serve that will not disappoint any steak-lover. Perfectly cooked on the fire grill and served with sauteed mushrooms, mashed potato and a small jug of pepper sauce on the side. The Italian Scallopine traditionally uses young veal, a prohibitive import for Indonesia with its exorbitant cost. So chicken breast is used instead, two medallions of tender flesh are crumbed and pan fried, served with a very Italian salsa of roasted tomato. To cap it all most of the dishes are in the $8-10 range [for mains, entrees are less], enough reason to visit Lombok any time! The fresh, clean taste of the Mediterranean comes through, so fitting for a beachfront restaurant.

The Grilled Tuna [pictured] is sashimi grade, and can be cooked any way you like it [just seared for me]. It is topped with a cream of sun-dried tomato which slowly melts over the hot fish, perfect! The Lombok Lobster is split before grilling, topped with a mix of crushed almonds, herbs and lemon. The King Prawns have a French touch, they are done Provencale. The Mahi-Mahi is like never before. The fillet is combined with garlic, tomato and spices before being wrapped in a banana leaf then steamed. The result is perfect flesh with a fragrance that enchants upon opening the leaf, and a taste that begs for more. A Turbot Fillet marinated with onion and garlic, pan-fried in olive oil, arrives at the table with an aroma that commands attention. Once again the flesh and flavour are outstanding. If some of these dishes and their style sound familiar then perhaps they should? The restaurants at Qunci have all been set-up and/or re-worked [menu design and staff training] by consultant chef Frederic Pougault who has previously performed similar tasks in Kerobokan at Sardine, Gado-Gado

Seafood Beachside! Eight Degrees South is found exactly there, at 8 degrees south of the equator, as it crosses the beach in front of the Conrad Hotel in Tandjung Benoa. Fittingly EDS specializes in seafood, and exotic forms thereof, prepared with unrivalled skill in their very professional kitchen. Their Executive Chef Ketut Kurniawan is one of the success stories of the new wave of Balinese chefs rising to the top after serving their apprenticeships working with great international chefs both home and abroad. Ketut honed his skills in the kitchens of Ritz Carlton hotels, both here in Bali and in the Middle East, before joining Conrad. Lunch at EDS is light and cheerful. Dining is in small wantilans, each one surrounded by movable window-doors with just a few tables, making them quite intimate. With the main view of white beach and blue sea beyond, the food just has to be seafood. Concoct your own salad from your choice of leaves, vegetables, condiments, dressing and side dish. For me the Dukkah Crusted Salmon [an Egyptian combination of spices highlighting cumin, coriander leaves and black pepper] sitting on a salad of compressed cucumber, yoghurt, fennel and coriander is too good to pass, the essence of fresh clean taste. All the fish dishes here are presented with perfect flesh, irrespective of whether they are fresh local catch or imported frozen, the mark of a great kitchen. Most of the pasta dishes are combined with seafood; Saffron Risotto with prawn squid and mussels, Spaghetti with crab, Penne with anchovies or Linguine with prawn, squid, clams and mussels. Lunch mains also offer larger more exotic seafood options; Perfect Pan Roasted Salmon, simply with lemon and garlic, local Gindara sits on a tasty mix of sun-dried tomato, black olive, broad beans, capers and butter sauce [pictured], Snapper is crumbed with Parmesan and the Tuna is grilled and sits on crushed potato, tomato and lemon confit. As much as I like fresh seafood there is another dish I find irresistible, Pan-roasted Quail. The rib cage has been removed, just legs and wings left for holding as the only way to eat this dish is with the fingers, served on polenta with a white balsamic port jus. At night, for dinner, the menu goes up a notch. Start with small tasty dishes [Shrimp with chilli flakes, Hummus of broad beans and feta, Crab Salad or a Seafood Chowder]. The top of the range entrée is Scallop ‘feuille de brick’ [super light French pastry] with ‘Noirmoutier fleur de sel’ [hand harvested sea salt from the isle of Noirmoutier, off the coast of Brittany]. This dish is one of those show-stoppers, so simple in appearance yet such a perfect balance of tastes. The 3 thin crisp pastries, the size of small spring rolls, are wrapped around perfect scallop meat, with a touch of that sea salt], the top of each roll lightly sprinkled with ground red chilli.

Each roll sits on a sour combo of finely diced cornichon, vanilla bean and cucumber, on the side a small pile of fresh leaves and a glass of diced fruit for you to pour over the top. The dish has that ultimate taste combination of hot [very slight], sweet and sour, and one that I could eat every day. Dinner at EDS is a fine dining experience, the options so vast and tempting that menu selection is very difficult. That task is made a little easier as some dishes are available in tasting portion size so a spread can be ordered. I will detail those mains first. The Wagyu Salad is prepared for you at your table, the grilled Australian Rib Eye Wagyu served pink and warm together with tossed greens and vegetables, white balsamic, sambal oelek [from ground chilli], coconut milk and fresh tamarind. You can order a tasting plate or the full serve. Fillet of Grouper is with Castelluccio lentils, chorizo sausage and cream of lemongrass with saffron thread. The Red Snapper is with salt flakes from Australia’s Murray River and fricassee of clams and sea urchin. The only meat dish that is available in tasting size is their Rack of Lamb, served with cannellini beans with sun-dried tomato jus and lemon thyme flower. Seafood mains that are served in full portions only include Tuna combined with meat from those unique Moreton Bay [or Balmain] Bugs, sometimes referred to as Shovel Nose Lobsters, with lemon basil and chilli. The Scottish Salmon is with sautéed mussels, crispy capers, mullet roe and lime cream. Opakapaka is sprinkled with Hawaiian black salt and a fricassee of scampi meat. Lobster dishes feature on this menu in a variety of forms. Carbonara style borrows from that famous Italian pasta dish and the meat is sautéed with butter, mushrooms, bacon and cream. Split and char-grilled is the simple way to eat lobster, just brushed with lemon and garlic butter. Thermidor is about as traditional as you can get, it is sautéed in butter with mushrooms, chives, pimentos and topped with a cheddar cheese gratin.

Normal Beef Tenderloin is also served, with shallot confit, edamame and black truffle sauce. The pan-roasted Baby Chicken is kumquat glazed and with a sweet corn fricassee.

Copyright © 2012 Gerry Williams If after a feast like this you can handle a dessert is always a question but if the craving gets to you then they are just as exotic as all that has gone before. African Chocolate Jelly is combined with spiced Russian bread, chocolate oil and a compressed strawberry and raspberry sorbet. Summer Berries are with a rhubarb doughnut, passion fruit cream and strawberry ice cream. However it is the Tamarind Baked Cheesecake that gets my attention. Dining at Eight Degree South is a seaside feast for a special occasion. If you do not have a special occasion, then just create one!

Update EVO continues to amaze with its offerings of classic Italian, a fine dining restaurant as distinct from Bali’s many Italian trattorias. Even their pork products are all kitchen-produced and originate from pigs specially raised for Sentosa, lean ones for meat products and fatty ones for the salami. On their new dinner menu you can start with the Savoury Zeppoles [loosely described as Italian stuffed doughnuts] stuffed with prawn, gorgonzola or mushroom. A large wonderful entrée to be shared is the Claypot of Meatballs, with its rich tomato base of the fruit of San Marzano slowly cooked with red onions in red chianti wine. For the true enthusiast there is a Salame Plate with three cured meats or air-dried salame or the ultimate; Pata Negra Bellota, cured Spanish ham served with black olive jam. The Chicken Parmigiano is the way it is supposed to be served and even dishes like their Lamb Coteletta are perfect examples of this great simple cuisine that when done properly lifts itself above many of the exotics. A foretaste of things to come at the proposed Seafood EVO at Sea Sentosa, to open on Echo Beach later this year, is their Seafood Tower [pictured], with Kimamoto oysters, white prawns and special spiced shots of lobster and mud crab, served with special lemon crème fraiche and cocktail sauces. Other seafood dishes include local Snapper, roasted in the wood oven and served with citrus-oregano jam. EVO also serves exotic Pizzas, with a crunchy base; their Balinese Pepperoni is topped with home processed meats from their piggery and kitchen.

Kemangi II has opened. The first was inside the Plaza Bali complex, the second is far more accessible. It is on The ByPass Ngurah Rai, at Suwung, half way between Benoa and Kuta Grahe, taking over the previous long time site for the Han Il Korean restaurant [now moved to Sanur], after an impressive and major renovation. Kemangi offers two cuisines, Balinese and Italian, both highlighted by a multi course degustation dinner option. The ‘Balinese’ is half that and half Indonesian; Perkedel Jagung, Tahu Telor [eggs, bean curd, bean sprouts and peanut sauce], Sate Lilit Ikan, Urab [spicy shredded coconut], Ayam Betutu, Rendang Sapi, Pepes Ikan, Soto Ayam and Bolu Gulung Pandan. The Italian version combines a Calamari Chilli Salad [strangely served with the very American 1,000 Islands dressing and cheddar cheese], Spaghetti Peperoncino [tossed with garlic and chilli], Pizza Margarita, Chicken Funghi ‘Japanese’, rice or garlic bread, finishing with a Banana Crepe. Aglio Olio serves Pasta and Pizza and therefore calls itself Italian. It is on Raya Legian and sees the return of a restaurant to the Rituals Spa site after a brief flirtation with boutiques instead. Pasta is Spaghetti or Fusili, but no traditional Italian dishes are on this menu. Instead you have to choose whether you want your pasta ‘wokked’ with just garlic and olive oil, in a cream sauce or a tomato base one? Then you select the added ingredients from Vegetables, Salami, Chicken, Seafood, etc. The Pizzas can be with Assorted Sausages and Mushroom, Hawaiian [pineapple, ham and cheese] or Seafood. The Javanese connection is obvious by the Fried Rice options [with bacon, chicken or seafood], ‘western’ dishes of Fish & Chips, Chicken Cutlet or a Teriyaki Chicken Chop?? Side orders include Squid Balls and Chicken Wings.

Bale Udang is one of the largest and most popular local restaurants in Bali yet it is amazing that it remains unknown to most foreigners living in Bali. It is an enormous complex of Bales [stand-alone 4 posted open sided buildings], with lesehan seating [on the floor] of course. All are over or facing a man-made lake, and all have been built in traditional style. Whilst seafood is the main attraction, the humble prawn takes the starring role. The Udang Sampler is a five course spread, with enough food for 4 persons at least. Prawn products served five different ways; in honeyed mayonnaise, bread-crumbed then deep-fried with mushrooms, in a mango salsa, simply boiled or as shrimp paste combined with blocks of tofu. For the ultimate prawn feast try the Aneka Udang, enough for 6 persons, at least. The complex also has function rooms and a children’s play area. Where is it? Hidden behind the fence, on Jln. Nakula, Kuta, very close to Iman Bonjol.

Lestari Grill & Pasta has moved from its Umalas Stables origin. This wonderful example of delicate Swiss Italian pasta and slow cooked meats has taken over the defunct Sorriso at the Dyhana Pura end of Jln. Drupadi, Seminyak. This will be an excellent new site and much more prominent as befits this fine eatery.

Coco Café is the 2nd of an intended chain of cafes operating in front of Coco Supermarkets, a local group from Karang Asem. The 1st was in the Bali Collection, this one is on Jln. Laksmana on the site that was once Half Moon. It offers yet another ‘tourist menu’, a little of everything, many of which are miss-spelt on the menu, which for 2012 is not really acceptable. I am always amazed at the spending of ‘squillions’ for set up yet not $1 for a Kamus…attention to detail is what running a restaurant is all about. Coco Café presents a clean look in its orange and black décor, and even has some limited parking in front. Open early for breakfast [8.00] there are eggs [fried, scrambled or boiled] with your selection of extras [baked beans, bacon, smoked ham, chicken sausage or hash browns] or a ‘Set Menu’ of Poached Eggs on Toast with bacon and, strangely, spinach. The Salads are ‘Marked’, with what I am not sure? Indonesian Chicken Soup is with steamed rice and noodles, the alternative is Goulash. On the posted menu a ‘Calamary’ breaded with tartar, but on the printed menu they offer Calamari & Prawns, the waiter was ‘confused’ but did say ‘no udang’. Plus all the usual sandwich, burgers, pasta, pizza and grills [chicken, beef, lamb or fish]. Convenient if you are shopping at the supermarket.

899 is Chinese and their specialty is Steamboats. It is found towards the end of Jln. Pratama [opposite Warren Mead’s seafood eatery] amongst the water sports offerings at Tandjung Benoa and it is well set up to handle the crowds. Three different Steamboat combinations are on offer. Begin with a broth either Clear Chinese or Thai style Tom Yum Goong then add to your steamboat; beef, chicken, fish, prawn, crab, fish balls, prawn balls, quail egg, tofu, seaweed, clear noodles and mixed vegetables. The full Chinese a la carte menu is also available but the main attraction is their Steamboats. Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com NC/Ns/G-13 June 12


Bali Museum: World’s Largest Collection of Baliana Most visitors and outside residents, put off by the traffic, visit Bali’s capital city only on errands, not realizing the number of unique palaces, temples, art centers, traditional markets and public spaces the city offers. Foremost among these is huge Puputan Square smack in the middle of the city. On every side of this wellkept public common sit the traditional symbols of the island’s power and economic elite. North is the Governor’s Residence built in Javanese pendopo-style, to the west is the stolid military headquarters complex, to the east is the Hindu state temple Pura Jagatnatha and the Bali Museum, and south are Bali’s biggest banks and the city’s busiest intersection where streams of cars circle around a five-meter-high, four-faced, eight-armed statue of Mukha, representing Batara Guru, “God of the Four Directions,” simultaneously blessing all the cardinal points to minimize mishap. With a population of 500,000 devouring all existing open space, hundreds of families escape the heat and confines of their neighborhoods to gather on the grass of the park in the early evenings. Despite its tranquil appearance, this place has not always been a scene of recreation and leisure but one of extreme one-sided violence. In 1906 a large number of Bali’s most powerful ruling class were exterminated here when they confronted invading Dutch troops who were horrified to see the royal family and their supporters kill themselves rather than surrender. Eyewitness accounts of the time reported that female members of the court tauntingly flung their jewelry at the Dutch soldiers before being mowed down by repeating rifle fire. A defiant heroic-style monument facing Jl. Surapati on the west side of Puputan Square commemorates this horrific event (puputan means “ending”). Late in the morning on a recent weekday, we rolled into the spacious parking area under shade trees to the east side of Puputan Square right in front of the Bali Museum. The elaborate gateway led into a large and peaceful courtyard. The surprising inexpensive entrance of Rp10,000 (plus Rp1000 for a camera) must be the best value educational experience on the whole island. Officially called Museum Negeri Propinsi Bali, the Bali Museum ranks high among Denpasar’s most popular tourist sites with a total of 38,565 visitors in 2010, including almost 14,000 foreigners.

The museum was first established in 1910 by the conquering Dutch who sought to collect and preserve artifacts that they felt were vanishing overseas or succumbing to the elements. An embargo was placed on the export of antiquities the same year and plans were begun to establish a warehouse where items at risk could be safeguarded and made available for visitors to view. A walled enclosure and open pavilions were built on the site of the former Badung palace (puri). In 1917, an eruption of Gunung Batur and subsequent earthquakes destroyed hundreds of Denpasar’s buildings, including the museum. Rebuilt in 1925, the buildings was used as a storehouse for artifacts and temporary exhibits until December 8, 1932, when it was established as an ethnographic museum representative of all the styles of Bali’s various regencies (negara). The German painter Walter Spies, whose knowledge of Bali and its arts was unequaled and who intended to spend the rest of his life on Bali, was appointed curator. Spies helped assemble many of its original treasures from donations and from his own private collections gathered throughout his wanderings for five years to the far-flung corners of Bali. Only those items were chosen that

did not require elaborate displays or expensive conservation. Exhibits labeled in Dutch and English were supplemented by explanatory drawings. By 1932, the local press reported that the museum was the pride of Badung with an unending stream of visitors. By 1937 , more than 2,000 artifacts had been collected. The museum was visited by school children, dance and music performances were staged, and a retail store selling quality works of Balinese artists was set up.

The well-maintained complex, with rich ornamentation and exuberant vegetation both inside and out, consists of a series of three attractive, shady courtyards separated by elaborate split and covered gateways. The structures together combine all the principal architectural edifices of Bali - bale agung, candi bentar, the temple (pura), the palace (puri) and the kulkul (alarm) tower, creating a lovely environment. Inside this large complex are also administration offices, an auditorium, a conservation laboratory and a library to serve scholars. The museum’s four main buildings from south to north - the East Building, Buleleng Building, Karangasem Building, and the Tabanan Building - house a splendid and well-organized collection of Balinese art and history with its own distinct and esoteric charm. To this day many of the museum’s holdings still reflect Walter Spies’ personal interests and idiosyncrasies. So striking are some pieces that they could serve as centerpieces for a whole new exhibition. In the reception area I met Allison and Michael of Perth who were vacationing on Bali to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary, “It was like running through a gauntlet,” they told me of the arts and craft vendors on the street outside the museum. They showed me a painting they bought for $20. “Mostly just to make them go away,” Michael said. We crossed the yard to our front, opening a tight fitting glass door into the historical collection in a big airconditioned room. After examining a wall map indicating all sites on the island where important historical finds have been made, we passed immaculate exhibits containing firearms, bamboo spears and kris, old stone statues of gods and goddesses, ritual objects and priestly accoutrements, a wonderful bronze spearhead, miniature clay stupas which once sealed written homages to Buddha and a diorama of life in Bali during prehistoric times. One display had crudely carved sandstone sarcophagi from Bali’s megalithic age. Bronze artifacts and implements, which began appearing from 600 A.D. to 800 A.D., greatly improved the quality of life. Religious statuette from the 8th to 9th centuries indicated the strong influence Buddhism and Hinduism exerted in Bali even from earliest times. More than anything else I was impressed by Bali’s long history of inhabitation, first by huntergatherers, then by cave dwellers, then by agriculturalists, then by followers of an elaborate Hinduized theatre state.

Upon entering the collection of traditional Balinese weavings and cloths in the Buleleng Building, a back strap breast loom greeted us. The earliest remains of clothes were worn on skeletons found in 7th century B.C. stone coffins in Payangan village in Gianyar, and on 10th C. statues of the Udayana Kingdom outlines of motifs on cloth can be seen. The displays ranged from the simplest to the most intricate, arranged chronologically clockwise from kain polos (“simple” cloths) without any motifs whatsoever worn for daily activities; kain poleng (sacred black and white checkered hip cloths) worn by guardian statues; kain cepuk woven by hand

using natural fibers and red and black dyes, and found only on Bali’s offshore island of Nusa Penida. I was most struck by the exhibit of endek with flora and fauna motifs worn during tooth filings, weddings and temple festivals, and recently on uniforms of office and government workers. The display of gringsing, a sacred cloth with the function of warding off misfortune, is woven by the double ikat process only in Tenganan village of east Bali. But the stars of this building are the spellbinding songket and prada ceremonial garments hand woven with gold or silver threads using a floating weft technique. The antique pieces in this room would make indispensable sources of reference for those contemplating buying old textiles. Now it was time to move on to the museum’s main structure, the Karangasem Pavilion. With its many pillars and veranda lined with old stone statues, it is built in the manner of Puri Kanginan in Amlapura in eastern Karangasem Regency - an archetype of Balinese architecture. This building’s priceless collection, covering Bali’s traditions from classical times 400 years ago up to the present, is the highlight of the museum. The exhibits of Balinese arts and crafts show full-size mannequins dressed in costumed attire; ancient calendars and lontar palm leaf manuscripts; highquality, early traditional Kamasan-style paintings; modern Batuan and Ubud-style work of the Academic and Young Artists schools; paper, ink and watercolors of mythological stories and legends and classical naturally dyed paintings on cloth depicting the punishments in hell. I spent a full ten minutes studying just the carved media - wood, stone, clay, and bone - including sculpted windows, carved doorways, pillars, ceiling beams, friezes, guardian figures, demons, and other specimens of Bali’s extraordinarily earthy and vigorous folk art. Most were collected from parts of houses and sacred temples.

We then followed a gaggle of school girls from Ubud into the last building, entirely devoted to the performing arts. As the visitor climbs the stairway, a spectacular full-scale display of a kris dance with Barong-Rangda figures menacingly glower from inside a room within a room. Along the walls are encased displays of antique kris and weapons, towering Barong Landung puppets, and rare Wayang Gambuh, Wayang Ramayana, Wayang Bharatayuda and Calonarang and Balinese-style Wayang Wong dance masks collected long ago from remote villages. A tall observation tower, hugging the museum’s inner wall, held out promise of a good vantage point. Emerging on to the platform at the top, a Japanese man was busy setting up a tripod. Two students from Udayana University’s tourism department asked me to take part in a survey. To the question about Denpasar’s best tourist attraction, how could I not give this grand complex enclosing the world’s best overview of traditional Balinese archaeology and ethnography with its ornate gateways and interlocking courtyards graced by Casuarina and Frangipani trees adjoining the city’s largest park nothing but the very highest marks? Practicalities Located on Jl. Mayor Wishnu on the east side of Puputan Square, tel. 0361-222-680.

THE PET’S WATER COOLER

More Gadgets Galore. Ok, NO cameras this time. Just a bunch of neat gadgets. A high tech door bell; a cup warmer for you and a water cooler for your pet; and a way to phone your iPhone! Enjoy. SWANN MP3 DJ DOORBELL Most of us would have installed a regular doorbell or chime that alerts us of someone in front of the house, while those who are of the old school variety would settle for a door knocker. Since we are living in the 21st century, how about an electronic doorbell that keeps up with the times, capable of playing back your favorite tune to add that skip into your step? Yes sir, the Swann MP3 DJ Doorbell is a customizable wireless doorbell which can hold up to 10,000 songs with a 32GB SD memory card, where it comprises of a speaker unit and a push button doorbell unit. The speaker unit is unique in the sense that it can be removed and function as a portable music player whenever you leave the home, talk about having more than just one function! All music is transferred via USB, or you can always remove the SD memory card and use a memory card reader instead. Included with each $49.99 purchase is complimentary MP3 editing software for you to make simple remixes of your favorite tracks for that truly unique doorbell tune. http://www.swann.com/ US$49.95 USB CUP WARMER There is nothing quite like a piping hot cup of joe to kick start your day in the morning, and the bane of drinking coffee (apart from its reported side effects, of course) would be the rate at which it becomes cold – making what some deem to be a heaven-sent beverage taste like plastic (or any other kinds of unmentionable adjectives of your choice). Well, if you need your caffeine shot while you code line after line with a tight deadline to meet, make sure it is piping hot as always. You can either drink from a Thermos or a heat retaining mug, or use the £8.99 USB Cup Warmer. Definitely useful as it ensures your hot drinks remain hot – and for longer periods of time, of course. All you need to do is make sure that your computer has an available USB port, and place your cup on top of it. It will fit most cups and slim mugs, and will also have a DC to USB cable just in case you want to plug it into any available power outlet at that point in time. Just make sure it remains out of reach of children – the hot plate will obviously get hot! http://www.firebox.com

Being a responsible pet owner includes making sure that your feline or pooch has more than enough clean water at any one time. There are many other ways to make sure your pet gets adequate amounts of water, such as those screw-on containers that require a used plastic bottle, while others are more expensive in the form of a water fountain. Just in case you happen to live in a place where the mercury soars during the day and the heat gets unbearable, imagine wearing a fur coat that you cannot take off no matter how hot it gets. This particular bowl ensures that your pet gets a constant supply of water that is chilled throughout the entire day, allowing dogs and cats to remain cool and hydrated. It will not rely on ice cubes which will require frequent replenishing or fountains that require electricity or batteries, as the bowl will keep the water cool thanks to a removable insert that is lined with non-toxic gel. It takes just two hours in the freezer and will keep the water chilled well below room temperature for up to eight hours. As for the durable ABS plastic bowl, it can be cleaned easily, and will feature a rubber base that keeps it in place. http://www.hammacher.com US$49.95 LAST ALERT PRO The alarm goes off in the morning and everyone scrambles. Right about the time we should be getting in the car to get my daughter to school, the inevitable happens…Where’s my phone? And the search is on. Yes, I know we should just put our phones in the same place every night. Yes, I know all this unpleasantness could be avoided, but how many of you have misplaced or dropped your phone somewhere and couldn’t find it? Come on, a show of hands please. So I want you to check out Last Alert Pro, a neat new app designed to help you find your lost iDevice, even if (horror of horrors) you know the battery is dying. Last Alert not only emits an audible tone letting you know your battery is dying but it will actually send you an email during your phones last gasp of energy, letting you know the actual location of its demise. But thats not all! If you have Last Alert Pro installed on a second iDevice, you know, one you managed to keep track of, you can use the apps built in compass to literally lead you to the last known location of your phone. The tracker uses a “your getting warmer” type ping to let you know when you’re getting close. If the app is successful, the developer plans an Android version as well. I see this as being a pretty useful little tool and I pity anyone that even thinks of stealing an iPhone or iPad these days, the probability of getting caught red handed just keeps climbing higher. So if you like your stuff, and want to keep tabs on it, check out Last Alert Pro at the app store for under 2 bucks.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

JAPANESE ENCEPHALITIS Japanese Encephalitis (Or JE) is a rare but very nasty disease and rumor has it that there has been at least one reported case in the past month in South Bali. There is no need to panic with just one reported case however it would be wise to be aware of the disease, and how best to avoid it. What Is Japanese Encephalitis? J.E. is a serious viral illness that affects the brain. It primarily affects children between the ages of 2 – 10 years, the elderly, or individuals with lowered immune systems. Case fatality rates range from 0.3 – 60% (average 30 %), and approximately 30% of those survivors will be brain damaged in some way. How does Japanese Encephalitis present? Some people that are exposed to the disease will have very mild, or no symptoms at all. Those people will not go on to develop serious consequences of the disease; indeed they will probably never know that they had the disease. Those that suffer severe acute infection would show any or all of the following signs: • • • • • • • • •

Abrupt onset of high fever. Headache. Loss of appetite. Pain behind the eyes. Neck stiffness Disorientation or stupor. Convulsions or twitches / tremors. Coma. Paralysis.

PERSONS EXHIBITING ANY OF THE ABOVE SYMPTOMS MUST SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. How do people get Japanese Encephalitis? J.E. is spread by vector transmission, the Culex Mosquito being the carrier. It cannot be transmitted directly from one person to the next, (i.e. you cannot get it from touching or kissing an infected person). Mosquitoes become infected by feeding on pigs or wild birds infected with the J.E virus. Infected mosquitoes then transmit the virus to humans during the feeding process. The Culex mosquito typically inhabits rice paddies, and other waterways. This mosquito is essentially an outdoor mosquito, and they are most active in the late evenings or at night. Not all Culex Mozzies are carriers of the disease. Only mosquitoes that have been infected can infect you. How do we prevent the spread of J.E.? Firstly, don’t invite this troublesome insect into your area by providing it with ideal breeding grounds.  Make sure that your garden and surrounding area are free of water catchments, or that water containers are covered.  Keep larvae eating fish, such as guppies, in ponds.  Use chemical larvicide’s in ponds, drains or other water catchments (e.g. Abate).  Remove garbage or unnecessary pots, bottles, cans etc from the garden area.  Lush garden areas should be fogged regularly in the monsoon season.

C/He/I-13 June 12

…and secondly, don’t get bitten!  Mozzie coils, or vapor mats can be used indoors in the early mornings and late afternoons during the wet season.  Mosquito nets and screens can be used in problem areas. Babies should always be protected by cot, or pram covers.  Wear long sleeved, loose light colored clothing while walking in garden areas.  Personal repellants may be used; however, they should be used with caution in the very young, or the elderly. The Vaccine. A vaccine is available against the J.E. virus; however there are a few problems with this. Firstly the vaccine is very expensive. There have been nasty side effects reported following injection with the J.E. Vaccine. About 0.6 % of patients have developed severe rashes and swelling immediately after the vaccine and up to 10 days after receiving the vaccine. It is wise therefore to remain close to medical facilities for up to 10 days after the last dose. The good news is that the vaccine has a high efficacy. This means that once the course has been completed, it gives a high (almost 100%) immunogenic response. It is very effective. The current J.E. vaccine schedule is a course of 3 shots on days 0, 7 & 30. Protection following the primary course of the vaccine is said to last approximately 2 years, therefore most authorities recommend single booster shots at 2 year intervals following the primary course. Anyone considering vaccination should contact your travel health center before leaving on your travels, or if you are in Bali, I can give you advice on vaccination. Please text your query to 08123660000, or e-mail info@chcbali.com.

So…If I do get Japanese Encephalitis, how is it treated? Firstly, there is no curative treatment for J.E. (i.e. No magic pill, injection etc. that will cure it). J.E. is treated symptomatically by reducing the fever, analgesics for headache, sedatives for seizures and specialized intravenous therapy to reduce cerebral swelling. We supply high quality professional Spa products, amenities and accessories. Our core business is the supply of bulk spa products.

Stay Young and Healthy with The Latest Advances in Anti Aging Medicine

Detox Your Body The Right Way There are many reasons why you should be detoxing your body on a regular basis and in this article I will look at what I believe are the most effective ways to do so. Firstly, why should you think about detoxing? The National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse believes that each year, nearly 100,000 Americans are newly diagnosed with kidney failure. More than 100,000 currently have End Stage Renal Disease due to diabetes, and an astounding 7.7 million have physiological evidence of chronic kidney disease. It is important therefore to take care of your kidneys and to make sure they are not overburdened with toxicity. By effectively removing built-up toxicity from your body you will greatly aid the function of your kidneys, and you will also protect them from further damage from the toxins floating around in your blood- after all, your kidneys are vitally important for removing many toxins from your blood to be flushed out of your body via your urine. Why Detox? We are literally overloaded with toxicity- there is no avoiding it. Due to large volume of toxicity we are exposed to, our detoxification mechanisms simply cannot cope with eliminating all of it, and hence it is stored within your body. Most of the toxins are fat soluble ones, and they collect and are stored in our fatty tissues. Fat soluble toxicity is often associated with chronic debilitating disease and illness. Your brain for example is largely a fatty organ, and can store toxins if your other fatty tissues have become already overloaded. It has been suggested that many neurological illnesses are due at least in part to fat soluble toxins that have accumulated in the brain. This includes diseases such as: Alzheimer’s, Depression, Parkinson’s, Bipolar disorder and Memory Loss.

body ozone it was removed. This is startling, and just indicates to me that we do in fact store a large amount of toxicity in our body which must to be removed or else our health will eventually suffer. Your blood is your life force and the cleanliness, health and oxygenation of your blood has a direct relationship to your overall health and to your lifespan.

C/He/I-24 August 11

Whole Body Ozone Therapy is a quick way to cleanse your blood and organs and to save or restore your health. From my experience there is no doubt that whole body detox is the key to staying healthy, youthful and full of vitality AND to restoring your health if you already suffer from a degenerative illness.

C/He/I-22 Feb. 12

Other therapies to consider as part of whole body detoxification include, colonic hydrotherapy, intravenous vitamin and antioxidant infusions, herbs and supplements that aid the cleansing process, and of course a very light vegetarian diet or even a juice fast. Detoxing is a large part of Anti-Aging and needs to be incorporated into your yearly planning schedule. If you plan to be healthy and you plan to stay young, then you MUST plan to detox!

Now take a look at the picture below which clearly demonstrates the large change in color and cleanliness of the blood after it has been cleansed, filtered, oxygenated and ozonated.

Whole Body & Organ Detoxification is the key – in order to preserve good health as you age, whole body & organ detoxification is not a choice but a necessity. It is almost like an insurance policy for your health.

This is a picture of some of the fluid that was extracted from the blood of a person who underwent Whole Body Ozone Therapy (EBOO) during which the blood is filtered and cleansed of toxins and heavy metals for over an hour.

This clearly shows large amounts of fat and cholesterol that are being removed from a vein of someone undergoing the EBOO whole body ozone therapy.

How To Detox?

There is no other way around this problem – you cannot simply close yourself in a glass bubble and not breathe the air we live in filled with pollutants and chemicals, nor can you avoid eating the food and drinking the water surrounding us (both becoming heavily polluted).

by Dr. Rob Ekumene Group Exhibition of Paintings At Gaya Art Space, Jalan Raya Sayan, Ubud Tel: 979252 Curator Wayan Januariawan, as part of his ongoing theoretical art research, has invited an array of Indonesian artists to participate in a group exhibition, entitled ‘Ekumene’, at Gaya Art Space. ‘Ekumene’ literally means ‘inhabited’ or ‘part of the world’. The word comes from a Greek term which had become a regularly used phrase in Greek history, after the development of the Hellenistic Greek period. The artists include: Wayan Sadu, Nyoman Wijaya, Gede Darmayuda, Ketut Lekung Sugantika, Uuk Paramahita, Teja Astawa, Ni Nyoman Sani, and Rio Saren. There are two principal issues that Wayan Januariawan explores in his exhibition: the formulation of a powerful indigenous Indonesian art, and a broad display of current art trends which exemplifies the development of this Indonesian school. The power of the art can be recognized in the artworks presented by the artists, and Wayan also believes that the art pieces on exhibition can be seen as excellent examples of local, national, and international art styles. Wayan has selected artists who are aware of creating works based on aspects of their own identity. These artists show their knowledge of current art trends, and put forward works which illustrate the current position of Indonesian art today. What results is a small, but, impressive, survey of relevant art styles, which are most applicable to the current contemporary Balinese art scene. Wayan Sadu shows a great appreciation in his work for Indonesian rural life. In his piece ‘Bringing Coconut Leaf’, a young boy exuberantly carries off a coconut leaf as part of the season’s harvest. There is a jubilant application of paint in Bringing Coconut Leaf this image, which adds to the merriment of the scene. Also, the flashy curve of the coconut leaf is echoed in its shadow, which turns the image into a unified whole. Nyoman Wijaya is best known for his depiction of cattle as part of the Balinese Hindu Karmatic chain of events. Nyoman believes that the animals are conscious of their fate, and that they Great Memory willingly sacrifice themselves as part of the cycle of life. In his canvas ‘Great Memory’, Nyoman depicts a bull on the way to its slaughter. There is a serene acceptance of this bull’s death. Nyoman works in an elegant hyper-realistic style, plus, his painting is brilliantly composed and balanced. Gede Darmayuda is a contemporary surrealist artist. He

uses images to shock and provoke. In his piece ‘Sound of my Soul’ a close-up of a mouth is depicted. On the tongue protruding from the mouth is a group of grazing pigs and piglets. What this all means only has ramifications in the viewers’ minds. However, Gede’s painting style is extremely sharp, and the textures of the protruding tongue, hairy skin, and slimy teeth all Sound Save the World contribute to a disturbing and horrific interpretation of the image. Ketut Lekung Sugantika also uses piglets as a symbol to make a comment on world environmental issues. In his painting ‘Piglets Save the World’, the earth is seen from far Piglets Save the World out in space, surrounded by a swirling mass of piglets. There is much humor in this work. The idea of extra-terrestrial piglets protecting and overseeing the earth is quite bizarre. However, the intentional humor of the painting only goes to underplay and underline the seriousness of current environmental issues. Uuk Paramahita breaks his canvases up into broad bands. Within these bands can be seen glimpses of rural Indonesian village life. On first glance, his painting ‘Under the Rain’ seems to be Under The Rain portraying villagers scattering from an approaching thunderstorm. Closer inspection proves to show that the villagers are not running from the rain, but, from attacking battleships, tanks, and soldiers. Paramahita appears to be making a statement about continuing unstable Indonesian politics, where dissent and revolution can materializes as spontaneously as thunderstorms. Teja Astawa uses very traditional Balinese painting techniques to depict very contemporary stories. This blending of the past and the present A Queue for Spying works wonderfully in his naughty painting ‘A Queue for Spying’. A group of monkeys are queuing up to peek through the window of a Balinese house. A phallic tree in the foreground, and an exploding volcano in the background, implies that they are peeking on something rather risqué. Teja Astawa brilliantly shows that traditional Balinese paintings do not necessarily have to be about traditional subjects. Ni Nyoman Sani presents an image of high fashion. Her work verges almost on illustration, and she appears to take

inspiration from high fashion magazines. In her image ‘Red’, three Indonesian girls are wearing the latest in International haute couture. There is a ‘retro’ look to the garments, which is actually quite fashionable at the moment. It is fair to assume that Ni Nyoman Sani is making an ironic comment on the changing attitudes in Red Indonesia to influential International trends. Not only in clothing, but, we can also presume, in much modern western culture. Rio Saren uses an unusual circular canvas in his piece ‘Playing in Autumn’. The idea of a circular canvas reinforces the idea of the circle of the seasons. However, as there are only two seasons in Indonesia, the wet and the dry, we can only assume that the image Playing in Autumn derives from his imagination, or, a remembered visit abroad where he experienced the full four seasons. Even so, his canvas has a nostalgic quality which suggests a remembered bicycle trip through falling autumn leaves.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

IS YOUR CREDIT CARD YOUR BEST FRIEND OR WORST ENEMY? Credit card growth in Indonesia has been explosive over recent years as the fast-growing middle class has embraced a new-found affluence. Credit cards reduce the amount of cash people need to carry and have made it easier to book flights or hotels and even to shop online. They have enabled people to purchase items weeks before they have to pay for them. Businesses in Bali have benefitted enormously from them. The benefits do not stop there The two most widely accepted credit cards are Visa and MasterCard. They are generally marketed to the public by banks and sometimes in conjunction with individual companies such as airlines. To promote sales they frequently offer incentives such as large discounts on products, particularly restaurant meals. Locally, many cards offer access to comfortable lounges at airports, including Jakarta and Bali. Great value if you wish to escape from the crowded public areas outside, not to mention the benefit of being able to eat free of charge there. Many credit cards will also award points according to how much you spend. These points can be exchanged later for goods or air miles. If you travel internationally it is hard to get by without a credit card. In most countries you cannot rent a car if you have no credit card, no matter how much cash you can place on the counter. If you fly economy on a domestic airline in the US you cannot even buy a coffee without a credit card! Using a credit card overseas also reduces the amount of foreign currency you have to take with you. In short, a credit card can be both a friend and a necessity. But there is a dark side Using a card is easy; the consequences may not be. If the bill is paid on time and in full there is no issue; you will have enjoyed up to five or six weeks’ ‘free’ credit. Perhaps not strictly ‘free’ because retailers will often mark up the original price to cover the fee they have to pay to the banks or card companies. The real problem arises if you do not or cannot pay the bill in full. This is when interest rates kick in and very often at outrageous rates, up to the equivalent of 40% per annum in Indonesia. If you use your card to draw cash at an ATM the rate can be even higher! Manageable perhaps if you can plan to pay for a major item over three or four months. If not, the interest will mount up rapidly. Some find a solution to this; they take out another credit card to help repay the first one! Inevitably, this does not work out and debts pile up even faster. It can lead to a downward spiral from which there is no hope, only a future laden with debt. This is not just a local problem; one of the richest countries in the world, the USA, has the highest average credit card debt, running at around $15,000 per person. But at least the US now has laws and self-help programs to help people get out of debt. The best way to avoid getting into a debt situation is to instruct your bank to pay the credit card bill every month in full before the payment deadline. This of course entails more closely monitoring your spending as well as your bank balance. Take care of your cards Even if you are a responsible user you need to be aware of a number of pitfalls. Credit card fraud is massive and

sophisticated. While copying credit card details can be done easily by any retailer’s employee the more advanced criminals have other ways of copying and cloning cards. Sometimes this is achieved by inserting a device inside an ATM machine. Bali was hit by a major scam a couple of years ago. Criminals also have means of scanning the Internet to look for transactions that have not been protected by a secure site. Fortunately the banks will usually pick up the bill for a fraudulent transaction. But it does mean checking your statement and immediately reporting any anomaly. If you are lucky, the bank will be proactive and contact you should they spot a suspicious transaction.

Protect and memorize your PIN number and change it if you think it may have been compromised. It is a good idea to advise your bank prior to any travel, otherwise you may find that your card has been blocked when they spot a charge appearing on the other side of the world. This is where a second card can come in useful. Make sure you keep details handy of your bank’s emergency numbers so that you can report immediately should your card be lost or stolen. Is a debit card more prudent to use than a credit card? Yes, if you have an aversion to debt. When you use a debit card the amount you are spending or withdrawing is deducted immediately from your bank account. If there are insufficient funds in your account the transaction is simply declined. The problem is that many businesses such as hotels or car rental companies will not accept a debit card since while you may have funds in your account at check-in your account could be empty at check-out time! A credit card, on the other hand, will guarantee payment so that should your account run out, the hotel or car rental firm still gets paid and you are left to settle up with the bank. For debtconscious people the solution is to use a debit card whenever possible but keep a credit card up your sleeve (or better still, in your wallet!). So is your credit card a friend or foe? C/BT/I-11 Jan 12

Like it or not, unless you live a very sheltered life, a credit card is now an indispensable part of modern living. Used responsibly it can be a great convenience, can actually save you money and can give you access to creature comforts at airports. But it can become your worst enemy if you don’t keep it under control. Take charge of your card or cards; don’t let them take charge of you!

Educating & Training Indonesian Youth for a Better Future By Michele Cempaka When I arrived at Suly Resort on a Sunday, I was surprised to see so many people hard at work. There was a buzz in the air and I noticed that the staff was always smiling – genuine smiles that gleamed with confidence and contentment. I had arranged to meet with Andrea, a volunteer at the resort, and Ibu Rini, the owner and conceptor of Suly Resort, as I was interested in their commitment to offering socially responsible tourism.

Suly resort and Spa is really more like a Bali Heritage Village (BHV). The resort has its own yayasan: Bali Global Foundation which supports underprivileged children by providing them with scholarship grants, free food and accommodation. Pak I. Gusti Ngurah Sutariana, who was an executive chef at several starred hotels in Bali for 20 years, conceived of the idea to create a special three-year high school program for youth which also offers hands-on training in hotel and restaurant management. This inspiration became realized with the opening of Bali Global High School in 2007. Students at the school receive the standard national high school academic curriculum in addition to training in hospitality.

return, the youth who participate in the resort’s training programs agree to take responsibility for operations while studying and working there, getting training in a variety of trade skills that will give them the opportunity to have a better quality of life for themselves and their families. “The goal of the resort is that it will operate self sufficiently without receiving any monetary donations taken from external sources. We want to show the students how to stand on their own feet and not depend on anyone else. If you want to succeed in life you need to work hard,” said Ibu Rini. Ultimately, the students learn a sense of pride for the work that they do which bolsters their confidence and belief in themselves.

Jakarta – Bali – Batam C/BT/G-22 Feb. 12

Suly Resort is set amidst 2.8 hectares of lush gardens and offers guests 67 luxurious rooms designed with traditional Balinese furnishings. Facilities include a restaurant, café, bar, swimming pools and spa. There is also a massive open air yoga space for daily yoga and special events like Kirtan, which was just held there in June for the full moon. In addition, Suly Resort offers a wide variety of cultural activities like the ‘Suly Dining Club’ which will be launched on July 15th as a regular ongoing event held every Sunday from 10am – 2pm. All are welcome to this fun event which will include some great freebies like a 30 minute yoga class, 10 minute foot or hand massages and 30 minute dance classes. There will also be numerous market stalls set up for people to sample some delicious local fare at reasonable prices, and a draw at 2pm for some wonderful prizes. Suly Dinning Club will be managed and hosted by the wives of the managers and staff, together with Bali Global Students. All profits will be distributed for the resort’s environmental program.

“This resort also functions as a training ground for high school students that have been selected to attend for free due to the fact that they come from underprivileged families from remote villages mainly in Bali, but also from other islands in Indonesia. Normally these students would never be able to further their studies due to financial reasons, preventing them from having a chance at getting equal opportunities in any professional realm,” said Andrea, a volunteer at Suly Resort. In some cases the students have furthered their studies on a scholarship program which supports them in attending and obtaining a degree from a university. Upon graduation and with having experience in the workforce, many of them return to Suly and the BHV to share some of their new knowledge with the current students. “The school prides itself in an ‘all for one attitude’, taught to the students – everyone helps one another,” said Andrea. There are three 5 year programs on offer at Suly Resort. The first 5 years students are educated and get employment at the resort where they receive hands-on training in a variety of hospitality services. During the second 5 years students continue with education, employment and begin to learn about enterprising, which is introduced in the sixth year when they are actively involved in running a small business on site. Some examples of this are Suly Catering which is managed by the Bali Global Foundation, Suly Laundry and Suly Royal Spa which are located within Suly Resort. The last five years involves opening early childhood education facilities in one or two villages. Only university graduates who are chosen by Ibu Rini will be able to participate in this special program. The money generated from these mini enterprises are paid out as a salary to hired graduate students and part of the income goes into the project of setting up more schools and projects of this nature in other parts of Indonesia. The resort itself generates the money to pay for the students lodging and education through guests who stay there, as well as take part in the many cultural programs and activities on offer. The resort’s mission is geared more towards helping these youth and less on the revenue the resort makes. In

Other great cultural activities and programs include: Balinese dancing and music lessons, wood carving and kit making classes, lessons in creating canag sari and temple offerings, ceramic making, egg painting lessons, yoga and meditation classes and much more. The resort’s expansive grounds have so many wonderful nooks and crannies to explore, such as the healing herb garden established by Ayu Kesumadewi fondly known as Bunda, from the household of the Surakartahadiningrat Palace. She also groomed and guided the massage therapists at the Suly Royal Spa to create a truly special healing spa program which guests will greatly enjoy.

C/U/I-16 May 12

Additionally, Suly Resort is offering tours, transport and other butler services so that guests can enjoy a wide range of activities during their stay on Bali. “If you are looking to make a difference in this world and be a witness to the amazing opportunities these teenagers are given, here is a place that welcomes your support with open arms. Come visit and enjoy the Suly experience,” said Andrea. For more information about Suly Resort and Spa please visit: www.sulyresort.com or email: info.suly@gmail.com or telephone: +62-361-976185/186.

about Bali’s environment. In 2010 The Balinese government made our hearts soar with the promise of banning plastic bags from Bali by 2013. Tick tick tick people! How useful would this be? Given the monumental task of creating any kind of waste infrastructure on the island, the banning of single use plastic bags seems relatively achievable in the short term. Last year this idea got wings but without it being enforced and legitimized by government no retailer is going to guinea pig this for fear of losing customers. How would we survive without plastic bags? You might be bummed to find you have to buy a fabric bag at the supermarket the first few times you forget, but I’m guessing you’ll not be making that mistake too often. And those moving violations : bungkus bags on bikes! Neccessity is the breeder of

If Rwanda can do it! Yep Rwanda has a complete ban on plastic bags! They cannot be u s e d , manufactured, imported or sold. FULL STOP. So many positives! Firstly Rwanda is clean, agricultural soil is free from litter allowing water to penetrate, there is less flooding from blocked drains, there are no toxic fumes from burnoffs, and cottage industries have been born to provide alternatives to plastic bags. So how does a developing country manage to be so far ahead of the rest of world?:

Committed Leaders! and on that note… the person who really wants to do something finds a way; the other finds an excuse… (unknown) with a BIG thanks to Tina Stockport at Plastic Free Bali for her inspirational letter!

UBUD LOVE THAT LANGUAGE Cinta Bahasa is one of Ubud’s best success stories in years, and they’re still thinking up new ways for us to put some extra shine – or begin – our love affair with the Indonesian language. They now offer Conversation Classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3-4.30pm (phone to say you’re coming) and a singing session every Friday afternoon from 4pm (join a regular group of expats and Indonesians; it’s free). Other organisations are recognising the value of this language resource in our midst. Australian Volunteers International (AVI) now uses Cinta as Indonesian language trainer for newcomers to Bali, as does a major Bali consulate, while Green School has asked the Cinta team to provide curriculum development and teachers for its 9-12th grade students.

BALI SNAKE PATROL I know that they are fascinating, but I’m happier at a distance. So I congratulate Ron Tilley of Bali Snake Patrol, who actually enjoys climbing under one’s house to entice a little friend to vacate the premises. Recently on Bali’s MTV with Samson, the unbelievably long python, Ron works in cooperation with the Indonesian Nature Foundation (LINI) to help with snake rescues, identification, snake-proofing and advice. Most of Bali’s snakes are non-venomous or not harmful to humans - and beautiful too. However, I’m happy we can call on Ron to check the credentials of an unexpected visitor.

TRAVEL WARNING REDUCED With more Aussies travelling to Bali than before those horrid bombs, the Australian government has finally lowered Indonesia’s travel warning from “Reassess your need to travel”, to “Exercise caution”. But don’t read the fine print on their PR any other country’s travel ratings. By the time you have steered clear of all the places mentioned, such as tourist spots, cultural activities, major hotels, popular beaches, shopping malls and just about anywhere else you can have fun, meet interesting people and learn new stuff about the planet, you’ll probably decide that is simpler – simpler, not safer – to stay home.

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

Whatever You Love, (you have to read this) By Shelley Kenigsberg ‘Fiction is a lie, and good fiction is the truth inside the lie,’ says master storyteller, Stephen King. This is nowhere more true than in latest novel of Louise Doughty, one of the guests at Ubud Writers and Readers Festival this October (3–7). Whatever you love (shortlisted for the Costa and the Orange prizes) is the deeply affecting story of Laura, a young mother driven to despair after the death of her 9-year-old daughter in a hit-and-run. The grief takes her to the edge of madness; perhaps even tips her over as she plots revenge against the driver. Doughty handles this very dark painful story with such insight and emotional depth that it’s very compelling. Her writing is straightforward, and powerful; she has such an acute eye for detail and presents such perceptive observations that I was never tempted to stop reading. The title is an echo of the promise Laura makes, once the culprit in the hit-and-run is identified: ‘I am going to find out what you love, then whatever it is, I am going to track it down and I am going to take it away from you’. Laura’s understandable first response to her devastating loss is made even more poignant and powerful once we discover who the culprit is — an immigrant, camped with other Eastern European workers on the outskirts of town — and then discover that the law can’t really touch him; leaving Laura bereft and without any resolution. Louise Doughty is a novelist with six books to date, playwright, literary critic and broadcaster and journalist. Her topics range from family drama to …well, personal and national politics. And family drama. But really… what else is there? (We can discuss this more in October at the festival.) She writes complex emotions but there’s lots of humour (not all of it dark) and well, (always a sucker for a triumphant ending and no, I don’t mean just a ‘happy’ one) I liked that Doughty draws strong, likeable and complex characters who show vulnerability and strength. And, perhaps because of that, their human spirit always triumphs.

Perhaps, though, the insertion of ‘outsiders’ (a la the Eastern European workers in Whatever You Love) is a way for Doughty to continue the exploration of her own background (Doughty herself has some Romany ancestry — her greatgrandfather was born to a Romany family who had emigrated to the UK from Eastern Europe in the mid-19th century); this history has featured in two of her previous novels. Fires in the Dark, 2003 is set in Central Europe during World War II, and offers a heart-rending and dramatic depiction of the Romany people and their terrible fate in the Holocaust (thought that up to half a million Romany gypsies met their deaths at the hands of the Nazis). Stone Cradle, 2006 offers the same sympathetic but not over sentamentalised depiction as Fires in the Dark and is based more directly on true events in Doughty’s family. It’s set in England, and spans approximately 80 years, from the birth of Elijah Smith in the mid-19th century until the end of his life. A turning point in the story is Elijah’s love for Rose, a non-Romany English girl and when they decide to marry, it is a wrench for Elijah’s mother, Clementina, who has brought up her son in a tight-knit Roma community. The clash between Romany and non-Romany culture is brought to a head here and epitomised by the ensuing emotional war between Rose and Clementina, (this is no ‘ordinary’ motherin-law battle!). What Doughty does, most skillfully, is to provide alternate points of view and so, the narrative sympathises with both — and also reveals the similarities between these two strong and passionate women. Doughty has other talents too. Writing for UK newspaper, The Daily Telegraph, Doughty began a hugely popular weekly books and writing column in 2006. In 2007, Doughty’s first non-fiction work was published, A Novel in a Year, based on the weekly down-to-earth writing exercises she proposed to her readers and gathering the best of the responses (numbering in the thousands) she received from her requests to the ‘writing students’.

And again, it strikes me, here is life imitating art (or is it the other way around?) Louise Doughty, novelist, becomes Louise Doughty, writing mentor and guide for aspiring novelists. These two perspectives and finely honed skills, making for a richer and more complex offering in each field. This work was my introduction to Doughty’s work. I gobbled it up (though it was designed to be followed a chapter a week), this and of course, I admit the novel-writing is unlikely to be completed in just a year; Doughty confesses she agrees!). But it is a marvelous accompaniment and fillip to writers who want to be encouraged, guided, informed, even amused… and feel part of a writing community. Her Daily Telegraph column continues, despite being a busy writer, mother, tutor of writers and literary judge (on the Man Booker panel for 2008) and now, she’s putting her able attention to a short story club, a la the weekly exercises for novel writing. (Yes, the short story’s back! No, it didn’t go away but publishers are better disposed to publish them now – we can talk about this more in October). I urge you to look out for her books; look forward to hearing her sessions and be inspired to get A Novel in A Year (if you’re wanting to write) and do the exercises. A treat, whichever way you look at it.

Biorocks: a Coral Revolution By Ima Deville

A Technology to Reverse the Trend At the end of the 1970s, the Professor and architect Wolf Hilbertz and the marine biologist Dr Thomas Goreau had a genius idea to introduce large metal structures into the sea and electrify them with low voltage current to stimulate coral production. This new Biorock technology brought hope to restore bleached damaged coral reefs and prevent erosion of the sand in many fragile environments. Today, Pemuteran on the northern coast of Bali and Gili Trawangan in Lombok are leading two major projects that have had amazing results. This in a way comes to no surprise when we know that Indonesia has the widest variety of coral species in the world, with 450 species.

The Damage Done The coral reefs around Bali and the Gili Islands have suffered tremendously in the last few years. It is estimated that today, only 6 percent of these reefs are in healthy condition (www.globalcoral. org). Destruction has come from human activities, such as dynamite and cyanide fishing, pollution, global warming, increased turbidity, over-exploitation and environmentally unfriendly tourism. Several causes can be identified, some of them brought by changes in the environment and others directly caused by men. The serious damage is often a combination of coral heatstroke, disease, land-based sewage, global sea level rise, over-fishing and direct physical damage from destructive fishing practices, boats, anchors, tourists and reef harvesting. The immediate impact on society and local economy is a threat to food supplies, a decrease in tourism income and the erosion of beaches in the area. If nothing is done rapidly, we can only imagine a bleak future, affecting all of us. Large-scale restoration of reefs and coastal habitats can only be possible if it becomes a priority for local businesses. This is why for example, the Gili Eco Trust has partnered with 10 dive shops and over 18 villas and hotels. A Simple but Effective Technology The technology is simple: metal structures of varying sizes and shapes are installed on the ocean floor and harmless low voltage electrical current passes through them to produce electrolysis. This process makes limestone or calcareous matter grow and cover the metal. At the same time, pieces of broken coral are attached to the Biorocks where they will grow faster and are more resistant to environmental changes such as higher temperatures and have a higher chance of survival. Fish and other marine organisms are attracted to these structures and sea life can thrive again. Biorocks are classified according to their function and depth. Biorocks in deep waters (between 5 and 20 meters) are installed to restore coral reefs. The ones found at 2 or 3 meters deep also restore reefs but help protect the beaches. Coral develops the fastest and many young fish shelter on the shallow water Biorocks. Finally, to fight erosion Biorocks are installed at less than one meter deep and their role is slow down the waves and diminish their force. When this happens, waves can then bring sand on the beach and enlarge them. Amazing Results Because Biorock technology is a catalysist for a natural reaction and not just a simple reproduction, the coral grows from 2 to 6 times faster than in usual conditions and their resistance rate has been estimated to be 20 to 50 times higher than in natural environment. Hard corals are perhaps the most visible parts covering Biorocks but soft corals, sponges, bivalves and tunicates also develop and become part of a healthy ecosystem. New marine life can be seen around the Biorock in a perimeter of about ten meters. On a large scale, Biorocks help restore damaged coral reefs and put a stop to the erosion of beaches in many fragile and endangered places in the world. The Gili Eco Trust is currently working on a new project of Biorock structures with an autonomous and eco-friendly turbine providing electricity from marine currents. Pemuteran, Bali The Karang Lestari project in Pemuteran is a large reef restoration

project started in 2000. Mr Chris Brown and Mr Agung Prana were pioneers in the field and came with a strong will to protect the area. They created ecotourism income for the local community. The Karang Lestari project or Pemuteran Coral Conservation Project was initiated by Dr. Thomas Goreau, Professor Wolf Hilbertz, Yos Amerta and divers from Yos Dive Shop who built the first coral nursery using Biorock technology in front of Pondok Sari Hotel in 2000. In October 2002, an international workshop on design and construction of coral nursery took place and many new Biorocks have since been created and installed in what is considered one of the largest coral rehabilitation projects of its kind in the world. The success of the Pemuteran project is partly due to the community involvement whereby village leaders, dive shop owners, fishermen and tourism professionals all worked toward a better underwater world and the rehabilitation of coral reefs. Villagers also understand that they too can benefit from the expansion of the coral nurseries as they generate direct and alternative income. The Reef Gardeners of Pemuteran are a group of 12 trained local workers funded by the Pemuteran Foundation who work full-time protecting the reefs, the fish stocks and educating local residents and tourists about reef preservation. The Karang Lestari project continues to grow under the leadership of Rani E. Morrow-Wuigk and several other areas of Bali are interested to set up similar environmental initiatives. In May 2011 The Coral Goddess sculpture, designed by artist Celia Gregory and the Marine Foundation was added to the project and it is the first structure to be powered by a green energy source with two solar panels and a marine breeze wind turbine installed on a tower 30-meters in front of the resorts’ Bio-Rock Centre. The Coral Goddess was blessed during a traditional Balinese ceremony, with holy water collected from several local Balinese temples. Ms. Rani Morrow-Wuigk now has a dream that one day the project will be entirely powered by alternative energy. The Pemuteran project has been documented in November 2011 in a short film and shown internationally (“Corals of Trawangan”, link on www.biorock-workshop.org). The Gili Islands, Lombok In 2004 the Gili Eco Trust launched its Biorock program around the Gili islands. Today 65 Biorock structures are successfully helping to restore coral reefs in order to preserve the depths of the sea. This initiative, led by the Gili Eco Trust, is particularly important in this area because the coral reefs have suffered greatly over the last few years in the beautiful but fragile environment of the Gilis. This is all the more alarming that the economy of these islands relies on tourism oriented towards the sea and the underwater world. The erosion of the sand is also getting worse. Like many small islands in the world, the Gilis could one day disappear because of the destruction of their reefs and sea water rising. Beaches are threatened to disappear because of erosion. Inspired by a project on the island of Ihuru in the Maldives, the Gili Eco Trust and some of their sponsors decided to fund a project of Biorock necklace technology in the north of Gili Trawangan. They connected long Biorock structures in the middle of the platter and used recycled rubble to create a wave breaker. We know sea walls cannot stop erosion on their own because they reflect the waves, which in turn take sand away with them. Biorocks, on the other hand, slow down the waves and allow them to bring sand onto the beach. The regeneration of a natural coral barrier is necessary to protect the beach and the coral reef. The Biorock technology on Gili Trawangan has been amazingly successful. Whilst many storms have hit the island in 2010 in particular, the beach has not receded and has even gained a few meters. The Gili Eco Trust has been the catalyst for the success of the Biorock programme in the Gilis. From one first biorock structure installed in 2004, in front of Villa Ombak, Gili Trawangan now has 65 Biorock structures around the island. Biorocks workshops are now organized annually in collaboration with the Kerang Lestari project from Pemuteran, PADI, the Global Coral Reef Alliance, the government of Lombok, Mataram University and businesses on the island. Participants come from all over the world to learn and share good practices and workshops are always an opportunity to install new Biorock structures around the island. Businesses contribute and sponsor Biorocks in front of their resort or dive shops. Ecotourism Opportunities Snorkelling and diving on these spectacular Biorock structures attract many visitors. It is diving based ecotourism and, apart from admiring these human creations, visitors also learn about the marine eco-system and its fragility. Tourism goes hand in hand with education for a better planet in the future. Tourists learn to interact with the environment, not standing or touching the corals, not grabbing the turtles. Many dive shops encourage participation in Clean-up days and there is now a PADI certification for completing the Biorock® Specialty Course.

Where Art Meets Science Artists have felt inspired by this new dimension and new media for 3 dimentional structures. The free designs of Biorocks allow almost total freedom and gives endless opportunities. The beauty of these structures is that in time they will become living art, habitat for marine creatures. Seascapes and artistic dive sites have been created to transform the oceans and contribute to their better future. In Gili Trawangan, we can find domes, tunnels, a dolphin, a manta ray, a cone chimney, a turtle, baskets, waves, a starfish, a heart and more. Celia Gregory, artist, Biorock designer and President of The Marine Foundation has contributed several of these structures. This foundation is behind the international Living Coral Art Project, a program of stunning underwater installations or Biorocks regenerating marine habitat. Interactive eco art that sustain communities and the marine ecosystems on which they depend. Designs and nature converge in these art forms. It is a perfect way to pass on important information about the environment and encourage curiosity and enquiry. Here in Bali, Deus Ex Machina, leader of fashion and trends has jumped on the bandwagon and created its own Biorock with the help of the Marine Foundation. A Deus motorbike, fixed to a metal rebar road and sunk 5 meters deep now lies on the ocean floor in front of Café Gili on Gili Trawangan. This excellent and fun project has been filmed and can be viewed on Youtube. Deus, known for their inspiring visuals, will draw new followers to the issues of the ocean environment. Current Developments Registration is now open for the 8th Indonesian Biorock Training Workshop on the Gili Islands, 12th-18th November 2012. This is an opportunity to learn and work with professional coral restoration experts and lecturers. The content of the workshop include design, construction, installation, monitoring, maintenance and repair of Biorock sites. It is of interest to dive shop operators, hotel and resort managers, conservation groups, coastal zone managers, fishing communities, marine scientists, mariculturists, tourism agencies, seascape and landscape architects, engineers, artists, government fisheries, environmental, and tourism policy makers, and to anyone who intends to design, construct and operate their own Biorock structures.

Best time to Water the Garden?

Hi, Thank you for the article reply, it was super helpful!! I have another question though :) Almost everyone says that plants should not be watered during the day, is this true or not? And if it is, why is that? I researched this on Google but I just saw some weird science stuff and many flimsy and contradicting answers. What is the right one? Thanks in advance, Filip When is the best time to water your garden or how often you should water? This is a really good question! Well it really depends on a lot of factors, such as the climate, how often it rains, the soil, the type of plant etc. More water evaporates on hot sunny days than overcast cloudy days. Plants need more water when the days are bright. More water is lost to the atmosphere on windy days than still calm ones. Water needs also vary according to the type and maturity of the plant. Rainforest plants and ferns will need constant moisture as they do in their natural environment, whereas succulents will prefer drier conditions. Larger palms that are mature will live just off the rain, but immature seedlings will die if allowed to dry out. As you can see there are so many factors to consider but in general I would say at dawn or early morning is the best time to water your garden. It is important that your plants will have the drink that they need to get them through the day. The last thing you want is stressed plants, instead of waiting until after the heat has passed to get a drink they would prefer to be watered beforehand. Leaves wilt and flower production can be greatly affected due to heat stress caused by an inappropriate watering regimen. Another reason to water early is that any excess moisture on leaves and stems will dry, and this will prevent any fungal problems from developing. Watering at night can leave the foliage and stems soaked all night leading to fungus, molds and other pest attack. In the wet season of high humidity it would be advisable to only water in the morning if you need to water at all, as moisture will sit on the foliage all night until dawn. You need to think about the climactic conditions and alter your watering to suit. For example after long periods of extreme heat anytime would be a good time to water your garden. Conversely after days of flooding rain you may not need to water your garden for a period of days or weeks. Not everybody has time to water in the morning as we all have busy schedules, and if you can only make time in the evening you should try to feed the moisture straight to the roots. Use a watering can or hose and make sure you water directly around the base of the plants, that way you can reduce the likelihood that fungus will develop. The main problem with watering in the heat of the day (midmorning to afternoon) is that the water won’t fully penetrate the soil, it is an extreme waste and large amounts of water will also be lost to evaporation. Water droplets on the leaves will magnify sunlight and easily burn the leaves. So if you absolutely must water at midday, make sure you water directly to the roots. Watering over the foliage under a hot

sun will burn the leaves and would also be an incredible waste of water. But that’s not all to consider. Possibly the biggest consideration to take into account is soil factors. We can classify soil-types into two broad categories, sandy-loams or clay based soils. Sandy loams are more permeable and water can easily flow down through the soil, and thus is more likely to dry out at a faster rate. Heavy clay based soils can hold water like a sponge (look at the rice terraces on Bali), and therefore can take much longer to dry out. A sandy soil soaked by rain, can dry out in a day of heavy wind, because it is much more airy, whereas a thick clay soil can retain moisture for weeks due to its compact nature. Clay soils hold water very well but have almost no aeration, whereas sandy soils are well aerated but less efficient at retaining moisture. Moisture retention is a function of, or depends on soil aeration. Soil type is a very important factor to consider. Take a look at your soil, dig it and run your hands through it. A sandy soil will be easy to dig, light and made of fine particles that you could easily run through your fingers. A clay soil on the other hand will be thick lumpy, heavy and hard to dig. Both kinds of soil can be improved by adding organic material such as compost or mulch over time. Organic matter gives sandy soils a thicker texture, so that they become spongy and better able to retain water. In the case of clay soils organic matter will add more lightness and air allowing for better drainage (root rot can be a problem in clay soil). The pros and cons of sandy or clay soils is an entire topic on its own, and I will address this subject in the next issue. From a water conservation perspective some people prefer to water in the evening as this gives the plants the maximum time to absorb water before it is lost to evaporation in the day. Watering in the evening can be advisable after extremely hot weather, but regular evening watering could encourage fungus and other disease if the soil is constantly wet. If you do water at evening or night, remember to water direct to the roots at the base of plants, and not over the foliage. In the wet season tropics you may not even need to water your garden at all for weeks on end!

You will have to look at all these factors from the climate, the plants, to the soil type, and then devise a suitable strategy. Different areas of the garden may even need to be watered at different times. Gardening is a challenge and that is probably at the core of why we as gardeners do it. Everyone’s garden is different! It’s about using your problem solving skills, and developing your own personal strategy that suit you and your garden!

By Vaughan Hatch

Employee No-shows – a passing trend or a cultural phenomenon? I’m sure that those of you reading this who have or have had staff will be familiar with the word ‘no-show’ – a staff member who will simply not turn up to work for no apparent reason – even if you treat them well and pay them relatively more than other employers – and are often never seen again. In today’s Bali, you may have also noticed that it happens more and more. To an outsider, this attitude seems thoughtless, disrespectful, inconsiderate, bordering on a lack of morals. You can explain away some of it due to sheer desperation, unable to pay the bills due to rising prices, mounting personal debt, family problems, too many ceremonial demands, sick relatives, chauvinistic husbands, nasty mother-in-laws, but a lot of this can be explained simply through a culture of short-sighted opportunism. Since the onset of mass tourism, many people have become increasingly opportunist, thinking about the now rather than tomorrow. How many dear readers have had someone in Bali attempt to overcharge you for something or take advantage of you simply because they can? This is because the opportunity is there – why should you do an honest day’s work and earn the same as you can in one quick ‘steal-sale’ to an unwary bule? The same goes for staff – if something else promising comes up: a cousin who tells them that they can work in a “villa” (actually just a house with a bule living in it!) and earn five times as much, they’re out the door chasing the dream of the dollar. Strangely enough, the way to keep your staff ‘in line’ may be through treating them the opposite way to how many of us would want to be treated. This has some fascinating cultural roots. Read more about what I mean in the next edition of Kulture Kid. Copyright © Kulture Kid 2012 You can read all past articles of Kulture Kid at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

“The Price of Paradise” Boats are often described by those watery boaty people as holes in the water they throw money into, in paradise building a house can be a similar experience. Budget blowout becomes a bit of an understatement when the final project cost ends up being a squillion times the initial plan. It’s all very traumatic. Like having a baby (not that I have ever had a baby) once you’ve started it isn’t exactly easy to stop until the job is completed and, as yet another cost turns up, the butterflies turn into ravenous vultures circling the deepest crevices of your innards. It’s a roundabout you can’t get off and many people, when they finally do get to the end, will say “never again”. The fact of the matter is that in fact many people who come to Bali are spending far more than they should to buy or build a house, it is quite usual that people are spending more than twice what they should be paying. As proof of the pudding so to speak I have a colleague who has recently completed a three bedroom modern 2 storey detached house on the Bukit, 500 square metres of land, 225 sqm build area, 3x10 metre pool fully furnished has cost him US$130,000 (Rp1,250 million) all up. He knows that he could sell it tomorrow for around US$350,000 and people would be biting his hands off, not wishing to lose his hands he isn’t planning to sell anytime soon. How is this possible? Why is it that so many people are paying so much more for their houses. Let us go back to some basics as a starting point. We have looked at this before but, with such rapid increases in prices it is probably time for an update plus some more detail. The price of land varies widely in Bali according to the location and the demands of the person selling it. Of course foreigners cannot own land, it is illegal, and are well advised to not use the usual tricks to get around the law. Nominees, pretend loan arrangements, powers of attorney and locking up the land certificate are fraught with risk. Land is increasing in value to ludicrous levels as lunatics with more money than sense scour the island to buy anything that doesn’t move. Much of this inflation is falsely created by real estate agents who wish to maximise their income and is eagerly supported by local people hungry for instant cash to buy that new car. Even so land can vary from as little as Rp 40 million per are (an are is not a long pointy thing shot from a bow but is, of course, 100 square metres) in a country area to Rp300 or Rp400 million per are in prime locations. Getting land at the right price is a matter of hunting around. Let us say that you are successful and buy a 3 area block for around Rp 180 million per are. A total of Rp 540 million or around $US57,000. Building cost is roughly calculated on rupiah per square metre depending on how luxurious the building is. A very basic house that an average Indonesian would live in would cost around Rp 2.5 million per sqm to build and for this it would have a low quality tiled roof, batako and concrete walls with a rendered finish, wooden window frames, plywood doors, low cost white tiled floors, squat toilet and around 1,300W of power. At the top of the scale there is no limit (if you like gold plated nasal hair removers and you wear ermine socks) but it is reasonable to assume that if you go the whole hog and make a complete piglet of yourself you will be paying as much as Rp 10 or 11 million per sqm.

So on our 3 are of land we build a house with 3 bedrooms each 4x3 metres, 2 bathrooms each 2x3 metres, a living room 5x4 metres and a kitchen 3x3 metres. Let’s not skimp so we add a verandah 3x2 metres, a laundry 2x2 metres, a store room 2x2metres, a maid’s room 3x2 metres and a maid’s bathroom 2x1.5 metres. We now have a comfortably sized house equivalent to an average modern Australian house except it has an area for a maid. A total of 100 square metres. Which takes up only a third of the land so there is plenty of room for a garden. Let us build this house at an average standard of quality with reasonable roof and floor tiles and wooden doors so we’ll pay a generous 5 million per square metre, a total of Rp 500 million for the house. We’ll also add a carport for about Rp 30 million. We have to pay 10% tax on the building cost so we need to add Rp 53 million. Total building cost is Rp 583 million around $US 61,000 which, with the cost of the land, is a grand total of Rp 1,123 million or about US$ 118,000. Note that the cost of the land is a major part of the expenditure. If we built the same house at very basic Indonesian cost and on a 2 are block of land (a bit cramped but you could do it) our cost would be Rp 360 million (US$ 38,000) for the land and Rp 250 million (US$ 26,000) for the building giving us a total of Rp 610 million or US$ 64,000. Now if we buy 4 are of land in a much better area where we pay Rp 300 million an are and we build a luxurious house of 160 square metres complete with stone facing on the walls, carved wooden bits, high quality tiles, wooden floors and one of those fancy French naughty bit washers we are looking at Rp 1,200 million (US$ 126,000) for the land, Rp 1,600 million (168,000) for the building, we can throw in a swimming pool for about Rp180 million and a fancy carport for say Rp80 million a total of Rp 1,860 million (US$196,000). So total cost is Rp 1,260 million (US$ 133,000) for the land plus Rp 1,860 million (US$ 196,000) for the building and tax will be Rp 186 million (US$ 19,600) giving us a grand total of Rp 3,306 million (US$ 348,000) to live in the lap of luxury. Of course the sky is the limit but this can be regarded as an extremely reasonable lap (perhaps not Angelina Jolly’s lap but maybe Julia Roberts, eyebrows and all). You will find that many people are paying considerably more than these prices for their place in paradise regardless of whether they are buying or building. I have come across cases where developers are charging their clients twice the land and build cost, a mark up of 100%, hardly customer service is it? There are a number of key steps you can take to keep costs down much of which involves avoiding fees of various kinds. While some professional fees can save you a lot of heartache and worry there are many that can be avoided. Next time we’ll look at how money is extracted from you without surgical intervention and what you can do to avoid it. Phil Wilson Opinions expressed are those of Phil Wilson.

JOGLOS AND GLADAKS FOR SALE

Ethnic Jewellery from Indonesia by Bruce Carpenter This coffee table book is a stunning introduction to the little known visual power and beauty of the body adornments used by the diverse peoples and cultures of Indonesia’s outer islands of Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi, Lombok, Sumba, Flores, Alor, Ti m o r a n d M a l u k u . Showcased in full color, the book features 500 pieces taken from Manfred Giehmann’s private collection 900 pieces made of gold, silver, brass, ivory, shell and animal teeth which he amassed through first-hand interactions for a period of more than 30 years. The collection is now very likely the rarest assembly of ethnic Indonesian jewellery in the world. The book explores the depth and breadth of an ancient and magnificent tradition, revealing the results of the collector’s careful documentation which provides the reader with information on the origin, meaning and purpose of each item, as well as unique insights into the people who crafted and wore the jewellery for ritual or ceremonial functions. Starting on the opening page with an amazing group of archaic bronze, tin and metal ornaments dating from the 7-11th centuries found in the Musi River of South Sumatra, the history of the jewellery is told from the perspective of the materials used. It was an accident that Giehmann became a serious collector in the first place. It was the reading of an adventure story - The Shipwrecked of Borneo - as a young boy that planted in him a desire to travel to the mysterious Far East. In 1973 he got a job as a young engineer in a survey company based in Singapore contracted to carry out a coastal mapping project for an oil company in the delta of the Mahakam River of east Kalimantan. On his first river trip by narrow longboat 200 km into the deep interior of Dayak territory he acquired the first piece - a vibrantlycolored old glass trade bead necklace (pictured on page 11). Over the ensuing decades, Giehmann traveled extensively to many of the most remote regions of the archipelago, developing a keen interest and expertise in the art and culture of minority groups. After settling down in Bali in 2000, he realized that he had accumulated several hundred outstanding pieces of ethnic jewellery, and in 2008 began vetting each piece in his collection to begin to compile this groundbreaking work. The only other book that comes close to its coverage is Ethnic Jewellery and Adornment: Australia, Oceania, Asia, Africa. Bruce Carpentar, himself an avid collector with a first-hand knowledge of Indonesian ethnic arts, worked closely with Giehmann to write the text. An authoritative introduction by prominent French scholar Dr.Antonio Guerreiro gives readers a glimpse into the lifestyle and social systems of Indonesia’s indigenous peoples. The collection is highly personal. Giehmann shared rites of passage - birth, coming of age, marriage and death ceremonies - with the peoples of living cultures. Though he makes no claim that his world-class collection is comprehensive, it would be difficult to imagine a more comprehensive institutional or private collection in existence. The collection rarity is reinforced by the fact that many of the small ethnic minorities he came in contact with no longer follow ancestral traditions of craftmaking. Thus, the book is a homage - or a tombstone, if viewed from another perspective - to customs and skills that have long since disappeared.

The scope of the collection is limited and does not include jewellery acquired from any cultures in Papua, Java or Bali. At first this might seem to be an embarrassing omission, but the jewellery of Java and Bali have already been fully documented in other publications such as Asian Jewellery (Skira, 2012) and Gold Jewellery of the Indonesian Archipelago (EDM, 2012). Also not included is jewellery made from ephemeral materials - grass, glowers, rattan, bamboo - because they are used mostly for single and transient ritual events and purposes. The publisher’s emphasis is overwhelmingly on objects used in ritual exchanges, to protect against sorcery and as patrimonial heirlooms. Some of the most mesmerizing pieces are wrist cuffs with rattles, ornamental daggers, decorative hair pins, rooster combs, spiral leg and arm bands, tiger claw pendants, asymmetrical earrings, gold betelnut sets, pectoral disc discs and plates, zoomorphic earrings, sunburst ear plugs, brass bell collars, beaded overskirts, silver bangles, exuberant head crowns and ornaments, Islamic style filigree and polished ivory bracelets, granulated beaded necklaces, headhunter’s torques, carved bird’s head amulets, bear claw talismans and Iban and children’s modesty corsets. All photos are captioned, the majority with informative historical and cultural notes.

Consulting this book is a practical way to identify and geographically locate Indonesia’s most artistically gifted tribes and clans. A beautiful two-page full color map of the Indonesian archipelago show all the islands dealt with in the book clearly delineated. The two Contents pages list 30 ethnic minorities. More detailed individual island maps (Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi, etc.) face first pages of new chapters indicating the general location of the group as well as color photos of tribespeople in full regalia. Supplementing the text are not just images of jewellery taken by the publisher especially for this volume, but also vintage photos from museums, historical societies, commercial stock libraries and from the private collections of writers, collectors and academics. Tropenmuseum in Amsterdram provided many of the black and white vintage photos of tribal shamans, Sumbanese ceremonial dancers, Tanimbar and Buginese brides, turbaned Minangkabau couples, necklaced and braceleted Niah and Torajan warriors and Meo priests taken from the 1920s to the 1950s. Ethnic Jewellery from Indonesia is a compelling and definitive work on the subject, a testimony to the greatness of a fast-disappearing Indonesian tradition. Anyone who appreciates Indonesian art should shelf this book alongside their other books on textiles, painting, sculpture and woodcarving. The book will also serve as a valuable fount of inspiration for the jewellery designer. Ethnic Jewellery from Indonesia: Continuity and Evolution by Bruce Carpenter, photography by Philippe Heurtault, Introduction by Dr Antonio J. Guerreiro, Didier Millet 2012, ISBN 978-981-426-0688, hardback, 480 pages, bibliography, index, dimensions 24 cm X 29 cm. Available for Rp830,000 at Periplus bookstores and Ganesha bookshops in Ubud, Sanur and Petitenget.

The Deep Blue Sea at Mentigi Bay I read a book called, “Ring of Fire” about these two guys who sailed around Indonesia and I thought, “Can I do that too?” Britta, owner of Bluewater Cruises. Mentigi Bay in Lombok is a magic and stunning place. Just twenty minutes south of the Medana Bay Marina and a short drive north of the tourist hot spot of Senggigi. Right on the beach in a beautiful setting is the Lombok base of Bluewater Cruises an adventure travel company set up by expat Britta from Europe.

of the Gilis that you fancy. It takes about 10 minutes by speedboat. It is great day trip to splash across the water and have lunch at Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno or Gili Air or all three if you have the wish. If you want to slow it down a bit and a get a taste of sailing you can go on the Al Isra for a day sail to the one of the Gilis and back , stopping for lunch. Gili Air is the closest island to the Lombok coast. Some friends and I had a fabulous time and Britta was gracious enough to come with us to make sure we didn’t miss any of the mystery. On board there is plenty of room to get comfortable and there is plenty of shade aboard to make it more enjoyable. Once at anchor about 100metres off shore at Gili Air everybody was diving from the boat into the deep blue. Kate from Kerebokan said, “A truly magical day. Titin from Batu Belig, “Saya suka sekali!!!”

Go to the Komodos

Britta’s story is a book in the making. At 20 years old she arrives in Sulawesi and while pregnant decides to have a traditional Phinisi boat built. This became her and her child’s floating home for the next wee while. The name of the boat is Al Isra and in it she has sailed to most parts of Indonesia. When money was short she would take tourists on various trips initially just asking for money to share expenses. One day she realised that it could be a good business to have. A great way to have fun and make a living too. Now some years later her company Bluewater Cruises is truly an inspiration. With 3 traditional Phinisi boats in the fleet, Al Isra, Mari and the brand new Aliikai you can arrange diving, surfing trips or charter one of the boats and go where you want. Each boat is crewed by people from Bugis the archetypal seafarers that have been sailing as far as Australia long before it even got its name. They are famous throughout Indonesia for their skill and local knowledge and can safely get you to anywhere in Indonesia. The boats have the necessary iron sail being Nissan truck engines to keep the boats moving when the winds are light. I asked Britta, how did this all start and she said, “ I read a book called, Ring of Fire about these two guys who sailed around Indonesia and I thought, Can I do that too?”

What’s at Mentigi Bay? If you are in Lombok and want a cool place to chill then go to Mentigi Bay. The Wa t e r S p o r t s Centre is a fun day in itself. You can hire jet skis, go water skiing, ride on banana boats or the flying fish floating boat and if you are brave enough go parasailing. When that is all done and you are hungry there is a restaurant on site to eat and drink and soak it all up. Britta is currently building some accommodation up the hill aways that when finished will be spectacular. They are inventive dome shape rooms that have sweeping views looking North West over the Lombok Sea to Bali.

Go to Gilis from Mentigi Bay One of the beauties about this place is that you can take a fast boat from Mentigi Bay to any

If you are more adventurous why not take a cruise to Komodo and see the famous Komodo dragon. Bluewater Cruises have regular scheduled trips and can offer a very safe and comfortable adventure. You can sleep on the deck at night but most people retire to the very nice double cabins for a good night’s sleep. That is after eating some fresh fish you might have just caught off the back of the boat. Or even if you want you can use the time to detox as Britta can put together a programme of yoga and healthy eating while you slide through the water. Parents don’t get envious thinking this trip is for the childless. These boats are safe and kid friendly. For example, Aliikai is 35m long and a beam of 7.5m, a crew of eight plus a guide. The decks are spacious and have many shady places to sit. The deck railings are quite high and designed to prevent anyone falling in the water.

Integration with Locals

Britta believes in integrating with the local community and says there is a lot of work involved in breaking down perceived barriers between expats and locals. If done with integrity and sensitivity then a win - win situation can arise. For example, the current construction project with building the domes employs over 20 locals from Mentigi.

Floating Hotel Gili Trawangan Britta is really excited about her latest project. She is opening a floating hotel to be based at Gili Trawangan. Grand opening at the time of writing is on 15 June. So go to Gili Trawangan and check this new idea out. You can hang on board or if you want to go ashore to party, just ask and one of the crew who will ferry you to your preferred party spot. Likewise when you have had enough and want to get back on board same same. What a brilliant idea. Sleep on the calm sea and party ashore. A sailors dream. Happy Sailing.

Local News British Housewife Amongst 5 Arrested in Bali Cocaine Syndicate A Bristish housewife could face the death penalty after being arrested for allegedly smuggling cocaine with a street value of £1.6million into Bali. Police said they arrested Lindsay June Sandiford on May 19. Sandiford, a 56-year-old British lawyer, arrived from Bangkok, Thailand when she was detained at Ngurah Rai Airport with some $2.5 million worth of cocaine in her suitcase. Denpasar airport customs chief Made Wijaya said: “We arrested the suspect after we found 4,791 grams of cocaine in her suitcase. She hid it in the lining. “We conducted an X-ray scan on the luggage, found a suspicious substance in it and then examined it.” Three other Brits and an Indian national have also been arrested. She was pictured sitting at a table surrounded by packages wrapped up in brown tape as a customs official cut them open with a knife. A younger British woman, two British men and an Indian national were believed to be the intended recipients and are being questioned. Indonesia has extremely strict drug laws and Sandiford, who said she is a housewife, faces being executed if she is convicted. More than 140 people are on death row - a third of them foreigners. Others are imprisoned for life. A Foreign Office spokesman said of Sandiford’s case: “We are aware of the arrest in Bali, and we stand ready to provide consular assistance.” Bali police further announced on Monday (28/5) that they have arrested a total of five suspects they believe are part

of an international drug smuggling syndicate. The four additional suspects, who were arrested on Friday, were believed to be the recipients Sandiford’s shipment. “Cocaine could be sold for Rp 23.9 billion ($2.5 million), assuming the price per gram is Rp 5 million,” Made Wijaya, the head of the Ngurah Rai customs office said in a press conference on Monday. “If they passed through security, [the drugs] could be consumed by 14,337 people.” The four other suspects are Rachel D, Julian AP, Paul B and Nanda Gophal - they were arrested after customs officers conducted a “controlled delivery” in cooperation with Bali police and the National Anti-Narcotics Agency (BNN). “It took eight days to reveal this case, and they are all members of very big international syndicate,” Wijaya said. Sandiford is believed to be the only the courier; she was supposed to hand over the cocaine to Julian, the alleged boss of the syndicate. Julian was arrested in Karangasem with 4.7 kilograms of cocaine in his car trunk. He eventually took the police to his villa, where they arrested Rachel, who police say had 45 grams of cocaine in her possession. Police also arrested Gophal at Julian’s villa, and said they eventually found 78 plastic bags containing 279.3 gram crystal methamphetamine in Gophal’s villa in North Kuta. Paul was arrested at a separate location in Karangasem, and police say they found 3.1 gram of hashish at his residence. The five suspects are charged with 2009 law on Narcotics, and may face the death penalty. (May 28th 2012)

Bali Tourism Boom not Fully Benefiting Locals Tourism development in Bali, Indonesia’s primary tourism province which contributes some 30 percent to the country’s tourism revenues, has not yet fully benefited its local residents. “The visits of foreign tourists and domestic visitors, which continue to increase every year, have not yet improved the welfare of all people in Bali,” Prof Dr I Wayan Windia of the Denasar-based Udayana Universiy, said on Thursday (24/5). This is because the development of tourism in Bali is not yet fully aimed at helping the local people. Some 2.6 million foreign tourists from various countries, and about five million domestic tourists, visit the province annually. This tends to marginalize the agricultural sector, which is the backbone of the local people’s economy. Thus, those relying on the agricultural sector remain poor. Bali’s population agency in 2009, for example, documented how 215,700 out of the total 3.5 million inhabitants are still living below the poverty line. Per capita income in Bali only reaches Rp12 million (US$1,200). “There is still a wide wealth disparity among districts. The tourism industry flourishes only in the southern part of Bali, leaving other districts underdeveloped,” Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika was recently quoted by the Jakarta Post as saying. “We don’t have natural resources. Tourism is the island’s major source of income,” Pastika said. In 2008, for example, about 1.9 million tourists visited the island, spending an average of $1,000 per visit. “This revenue excludes the income from visa on arrival fees,” Pastika said. He added that Bali generated around US$2 billion to US$3 billion per year from its tourism and hospitality industry. He urged the central government to allocate to the province a large portion of the national tourism revenue, since it contributed more than 30 percent of the total income.

Although Bali has been declared one of the world’s most famous tourist destinations, the province has to work hard to upgrade its infrastructure and other supporting facilities. Further, the rapid development of hotels, villas, and shop houses, locally known as rukos, has threatened the island’s environment. According to Uniting World media online, while Bali is well known as a tourist destination, there is considerable poverty in rural villages away from the tourist areas. Balinese culture is strongly patriarchal, so the impact on women in poor communities is particularly great. Local government receives funding to assist poor people with housing, electricity, water and other basic services. However, the voice of the poorest, especially women, is sometimes not heard in village-based planning meetings. Prof. I Wayan Windia said tourism development is a capitalistic activity which theoretically tended to marginalize weak people from tourist resort areas. He questioned the government’s efforts to realize the ideal of equitable distribution of the benefits of tourism development for the welfare of the people who were the object, as well as the subject, of tourism development. This, he said, is important for building a sense of unity and of forging diversity, as part of the efforts to foster the people’s identity. “The Bali people are questioning whether or not it is right for Bali to maintain its cultural tourism concept as a tourist destination,” the professor asserted. He argued that cultural tourism in Bali failed to bring equitable and structural distribution of tourism benefits to the people, while the echo of tourism development did not touch and involve players who perpetuate culture in society. He explained that the results of the tourism development sector in Bali had not yet holistically reflected the realization of Bali’s cultural tourism development, which should serve as a reference to improving and raising the people’s welfare standard.

Challenge to Decision to Shave five years off Jail Term of Schapelle Corby An anti-drugs group in Indonesia has promised to challenge a presidential decision to shave five years off the 20-year jail term of Australian drug trafficker Schapelle Corby. The National Anti Narcotics Movement will file a lawsuit in a State administrative court in a bid to overturn President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s decision last week to grant clemency to Corby, the group’s lawyer said on Wednesday (30/5) . “In Indonesia’s history, not one narcotics convict, local or foreigner, has ever received clemency from the President. This is the first case,” Yusril Ihza Mahendra said. “Drug trafficking is a serious crime. Clemency should not be given to a person convicted of trafficking as they pose a dangerous threat to our young generation,” said Mahendra, a former Justice and Human Rights Minister. “The decision sets a bad precedent and undermines the country’s efforts in eradicating drug trafficking in Indonesia.” He said that the group would present evidence from the families of victims of drug abuse. Indonesian lawmakers also plan to question Yudhoyono over his decision. About 17 members of the People’s Conscience Party (Hanura), which is staunchly opposed to the ruling Democratic Party, called for the President to be summoned before parliament to provide clarification over the decision. Under parliamentary rules, however, at least 24 members from a minimum of two parties are required to summon the President for questioning. “This is a tragic decision. We want to know if the President made the decision under pressure from the Australian government,” Hanura legislative member Sarifuddin Sudding said. Corby, 34, was convicted in 2005 of smuggling 4.1 kilograms of marijuana into holiday island of Bali and has received regular small remissions in line with standard Indonesian practice to cut sentences twice a year. She is expected to be released in 2017 at the latest. (May 30th 2012) Porsche With Military Plates Riles Officials A member of House Commission I called on Friday (25/5) for the Indonesian military to confiscate a luxurious Porsche Cayenne Turbo allegedly owned by a member of the military. A civilian took a photo of the Porsche Cayenne that was parked at Soekarno Hatta airport, and sent the photo to Detik.com. The amateur photographer, Pranistara, said he had just arrived from Yogyakarta when saw several parked military vehicles (identifiable by their license plates) - the Porsche was conspicuously among the other cars. The price of Porsche Cayenne on the Indonesian market is around Rp 3.85 billion (almost $416,000) before taxes. The commissioner said that it was “not appropriate” for a military member to show off such a lavish vehicle amid average Indonesian’s who are “struggling for a living”. Indonesian Military spokesman Rear Adm. Iskandar Sitompul said that he would investigate the extravagant car. “This kind of car could not fulfill any specification for a military [official],” Iskandar told detik.com. “If the car is [Toyota] Kijang or Avanza, it is normal to be used by members in carrying out duties - but we need to investigate if it is Porsche.” (May 25th 2012) Govt Vehicle Subsidized Fuel Ban to Take Effect in Jakarta in June Starting in June, the Jakarta administration will ban civil servants in the capital from using subsidized fuel for official cars, a spokesman for the administration announced on Thursday (31/5). The move follows the president’s announcement on Tuesday that new rules would be put into effect to save fuel. Official vehicles will be limited to purchasing non-subsidized fuel products like Pertamax, and not the subsidized ones like Premium, Sugiyanta said. Jakarta civil servants were also under instructions to turn off lamps and electronics that were not in use and to carpool whenever possible, he added. The Jakarta administration will campaign for other energy saving measures, including promoting the use of light-emitting diode (LED) lamps in state offices and “green concepts” for the construction of new office buildings and rehabilitation of the old ones, Sugiyanta said. President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono announced several new policies on Tuesday evening aimed at reducing Indonesia’s subsidized fuel consumption, in a move to limit the cost of the expensive subsidy. The new policies include the ban on officials and employees of state enterprises from using subsidized fuel when driving state-owned vehicles and a campaign to minimize fuel consumption through reduced use of electricity in government and state enterprises’ offices.

‘Stop Treating Indonesia as a Beggar Nation,’ Australian Academic Urges Australians need to stop regarding Indonesia as a poor, weak nation and prepare for their neighbor to be a rich and powerful player in the region, a leading academic said Friday (25/5). “People find it hard to imagine that we might have to pay careful attention to Indonesia’s views and wishes when it has an economy twice the size of ours,” Hugh White, an Australian National University academic and former senior defense official said. “We’ve sought to define the relationship on our terms, and that won’t be possible anymore,” he said. White said Canberra, Indonesia’s largest aid donor, was kidding itself if it thought Jakarta would be grateful for what is a tiny proportion of its development budget. “People don’t like being treated as poor and weak as we treat Indonesia,” he said. “I think we’re storing up trouble for the long-term relationship by placing so much emphasis on aid in the way we deal with Indonesia today.” White urged Canberra to set aside a fifth of its Aus$578 million ($560 million) annual aid budget to finance a program that sends 10,000 young Australians a year to Indonesia to study the language and culture. He said the “emphasis should not be on us helping them but on us learning from them.” White said Australia had no experience in dealing with a strong neighbor. “Now we have to work out how to get on with a bigger power - perhaps even a great power - right next door,” he said. Ambassador to Indonesia Greg Moriarty said this month that Australian businesses were overlooking their nearest neighbor in favor of opportunities in China and India. He said Indonesia, one of only three Asian economies that grew faster than 6 percent last year, had a middle class larger than Australia’s entire 22 million population. (May 28th 2012) Indonesia ‘Most Tolerant Country in the World’: Religious Minister Religious Affairs Minister Suryadharma Ali refuted claims that the Indonesian government had poor record protecting minorities on Wednesday (23/5), calling Indonesia “the most tolerant country in the world.” Suryadharma was responding critically to a plan by some rights groups to report the Indonesian government to the United Nations’ rights council for its failure to protect minority rights. “We treat equally the minority and the majority,” the minister said in Jakarta. “Indonesia’s religious harmony is the best in the world.” Suryadharma said President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, Vice President Boediono and himself always attended commemorations for Indonesian holidays, no matter which of the country’s six official religions they belonged to. “The president, the vice president and the religious minister are Muslims, but we attend celebrations of Christmas and the Hindu, Buddhism and Confucianism holidays,” he said. He accused the rights groups of trying to taint the country’s image with their reported plan to bring cases of abuse against religious minorities to the upcoming UN Human Rights Council meeting, set for May 23-25 in Geneva. (May 23rd 2012) 3 Sumatran Elephants Found Poisoned in Indonesia An environmentalist says three endangered Sumatran elephants have been poisoned and found dead within a palm oil plantation in western Indonesia. Rono Wiranata from the FAKTA nongovernment group said workers at the state-run plantation were believed to have placed the poison on palm fruits. The dead 3- and 5-year-old elephants were found Thursday ((31/5) in two separate locations in East Aceh district. Wiranata on Friday cited plantation workers in saying more elephants may die from the poison. Five of the endangered Sumatran elephants have been found poisoned in Aceh province since April. Fewer than 3,000 Sumatran elephants are left in the wild. Environmentalists say they could be extinct within three decades unless they are protected. (June 2nd 2012)

Bali Bound Flight Grounded in the Alice More than 270 passengers from Sydney had a weekend stop in Alice Springs instead of Bali after a series of calamitous events left them grounded for almost 24 hours. Jetstar flight JQ37 from Sydney to Denpasar was diverted to Alice Springs on Saturday (2/6) afternoon because of a medical emergency. After landing ground crew discovered a technical problem with the plane which forced them to stay overnight. Passengers were flown back to Sydney on two planes because Alice Springs does not have immigration facilities for international travel. They left Alice Springs about 2pm Sunday. (June 3rd 2012) Road Accidents 30 Thousands per Annum Road “Space” Reaching Critical State Traffic accident statistics in Indonesia are increasing, reaching as many as 30,000 accidents per year (an average of 8,200 / day) according to Director General for Land Transportation Soerojo Ali Moeso. He said that the high rate of traffic accidents in Indonesia was due to various causes such as the lack of discipline by motorists, traffic density, the high flow of traffic due to narrow roads. The Director General made the remarks on the occasion of the second anniversary of the Car-Free Day and Traffic Safety Campaign in Jakarta on Sunday (27/5). He said that nowadays, the density of motorists on the roads in Indonesia was very high. The growth of two-wheel vehicles reached ten percent per annum while the four-wheel vehicles seven percent. Road expansion was however was currently only at one percent. (May 27th 2012) Australian Bikie Gangs Zero in on Bali Perth’s outlaw motorcycle gangs are “aggressively” expanding into Asia and have set up a chapter in Bali, according to Assistant Police Commissioner Nick Anticich. He confirmed the spread of the gangs’ tentacles after The Sunday Times learnt WA members of the Coffin Cheaters own businesses in Kuta and others have been seen in groups wearing their colors in clubs and bars. Mr. Anticich, WA Police’s top bikie expert, confirmed the Cheaters had a local club in Bali and said gangs were “expanding aggressively overseas, opening clubhouses and absorbing smaller clubs in other countries”. “Intelligence suggests local clubs are keen to build connections to some South-East Asian countries where amphetamines and the precursor chemicals needed to make them can be more easily obtained,” he said. “There is some anecdotal information to suggest the interest in overseas countries may be to facilitate money laundering.” Other bikie gangs with a presence in Bali include the Bandidos and Rock Machine. “The tough laws in Bali around drug dealing we believe provide a significant deterrent for members to engage in that activity,” Mr. Anticich said. “We are not so confident that this deterrent exists in relation to precursors or chemicals that can be used for drug manufacture. In many countries these are cheap, easily accessible, not illegal to possess and available in commercial quantities.” Another WA Police source said Bali had become a haven for international drug gangs due to the lack of security technology. Mr. Anticich said though Indonesia ratified the United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances more than a decade ago, it was still “difficult” to define what chemicals their laws related to. He said bikie gangs were now flourishing across South-East Asia, with the Bandidos boasting chapters in Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore and the Outlaws operating in Thailand, the Philippines and Japan. WA Police could monitor organized crime figures and seek assistance of police in other jurisdictions if they believed criminal activity was occurring. In WA, bikies are not allowed to wear their colors in licensed venues. The Barnett Government also plans to introduce anti-association laws banning people in known criminal organizations, such as bikie gangs, from gathering together or even contacting each other.

Quake Sways Tall Buildings in Indonesia’s Capital A strong earthquake swayed tall buildings in Indonesia’s capital Monday afternoon but caused no tsunami or apparent damage. Office workers said the swaying was felt for about 10 seconds in high-rise buildings around the city of 9 million people. Even two-story homes shook strongly. No damage or casualties have been reported. Earthquakes occur frequently across the sprawling archipelago nation, but it is uncommon for tremors to be felt in Jakarta. The U.S. Geological Survey said the 5.9-magnitude quake hit in the Indian Ocean 100 kilometers (62 miles) southwest of Sukabumi, a town in West Java province. It was about 171 kilometers (106 miles) from Jakarta and 67 kilometers (41 miles) beneath the ocean floor. (June 4th 2012) Foreigner Detained for Smuggling Crystal Meth Customs officers at Ngurah Rai International Airport have arrested a Ugandan man, Bashir Gadafi Palikoko, for attempting to smuggle one kilogram of crystal methamphetamine into the country, according to an official. “The 39-year-old driver was carrying drugs after landing from Doha with Qatar Airways,” Bali`s Customs and Excise Agency monitoring division head, Made Wijaya, stated here on Monday (4/6). He said the customs and excise officers had suspected Bashir after spotting an unusual oval-shaped object in his stomach. After the object was recovered from the suspect’s body, the officers found 66 capsules containing white crystalline substances, which weighed a total of 1,055 grams or 1.055 kilograms. The officers examined the crystals in a laboratory, where it was found that the substance was methamphetamine. In the black market, Made noted, the drug costs approximately Rp. 2.5 million per gram, so the estimated value of the seized drugs was Rp. 2.6 billion or more. (June 5th 2012) Child Protection Agency Wants Indonesia to Curb Condom Sales Indonesia’s Child Protection Commission (KPAI) urged the government to limit condom sales to approved stores, a move that would effectively pull the contraception out of convenience stores. “Condoms are a halal product, but sales should be limited to prevent misuse by people who are not supposed to use it,” KPAI Deputy Chairman Asrorun Ni’am Sholeh told Antara. The criticisms of Asrorun, a former secretary with the Indonesian Council of Ulema (MUI), were backed by an employee of Bogor’s Religious Affairs Ministry who argued that the prevalence of easy-to-get condoms had led to a surge in sexual activity in Bogor. Condom use in Indonesia is already low by global standards. The nonprofit organization DKT Indonesia previously said that Indonesia’s commercial condom market was about 120 million sales a year, half to one-third of what is should be for a nation of 240 million people. Indonesia has one of the fastest-growing HIV epidemics in Asia, according to United Nations figures. According to the AIDS Prevention Commision (KPA) 76 percent of the nation’s HIV/AIDS infections are transmitted through unsafe sex. The United States Center for Disease Control lists condoms as an effective barrier against the HIV virus. Teen pregnancy is also an issue in Indonesia, where, according to a dubious survey conducted by the KPAI, 21.2 percent of girls between the ages of 14 and 18 have had at least one abortion. The same survey, which has been criticized for its unreliable data, claims that 62.7 percent of teenagers aged 14 to 18 had engaged in sexual intercourse. (May 30th 2012)

On the 23thrd May 2012, around 11.30 AM, I went diving in the beautiful waters of Pulau Menjangan. I was enjoying this beautiful coral with my Balinese guide when suddenly we were struck by a huge explosion that left us in awe. I thought my last moment had come and my guide thought my tank had exploded on my back. It appeared people were fishing with DYNAMITE!!! 15 minutes later, two more explosions followed!! My guide told me the fishing was probably around Pulau Tabuan, but more likely was it in the vicinity of the National Park - protected area of Menjangan. The explosion was like if a jet plane would cross the sound barrier above your head, so loud no window would survive it. My eardrums suffered no damage, but me, my guide and all the -seemingly protected- nature around had a good scare. I was really lucky to be an experienced diver and did not panic. I would assume a not so experienced diver could panic seriously, ascend rapidly and risk all kinds of dangerous illnesses, also barotraumas‚ (rupture of the lungs) what could cause the death of the diver. What about the marine life that is supposed to be protected around Menjangan? It is a reserve after all isn’t it? How would dolphins react to that? The same dolphins that are so important in the tourism business in Lovina? It is an absolute disgrace that dynamite fishing is still being done in Indonesia!! I sincerely hope you could mention this event in the next Bali Advertiser, I think it is important that divers and other people would know about these facts. Thank you. Greetings Philippe.

Sanur – the new Kuta? Dear BA, Any of your readers that have lived in Sanur for more than 3 years know that Sanur is no longer the quiet village by the sea that it use to be. Lots of traffic and BIG busses on the main road now make for a Kuta like atmosphere. My main reason for writing today is several new restaurants that have recently opened, one by Massimo and the other up past Hardys. Both of these new places have a nice look to attract passerby but while both places have spent lavishly on their fit outs, both places have given no thought as to where their staff are going to park their motorbikes. The result is a huge line of motorbikes parked in front the restaurants AND the properties beside them, making it impossible for cars to park in that area. I realize that these two new places are not the only ones doing this but both of them really stand out for the huge number of motorbikes parked in front [as well as on the foot path at the restaurant north of Hardys.]. Why do businesses have no respect for their employees or for their customers? There are many businesses that provide parking for their staff – why is the public street allowed to be taken for private use for some businesses? And when is Sanur going to realize that they will become the NEW KUTA if they do not organize traffic and parking soon. Regards, An Old Sanur Hand

Ceremonial Jewelry in Indonesia Part I

From prehistoric times jewelry and body adornments have been used in many ways and for a variety of functions. For the ancient Indonesians, it was an essential part of ceremonial dress; it was worn by shamans, priests and healers, warriors, dancers and people observing their life cycle ceremonies. Across the archipelago and its various tribes, jewelry was made, worn and venerated in function of religious beliefs. It could accompany the deceased into the grave, allowing them to maintain status in the afterworld. Jewelry could be worn as symbols of power and standing or to protect the wearer from spiritual harm. Because of its intrinsic beauty, monetary value and anthropological significance, ethnic ceremonial jewelry has been avidly collected by experts and connoisseurs. One knowledgeable collector is long time Bali resident Manfred Giehman who, thanks to an interesting career as surveyor and cartographer for major exploration projects and infrastructure development programs in remote areas of Indonesia, has been able to compile an amazing collection of ethnic jewelry from minority tribes throughout the archipelago. During his many years in isolated parts of Indonesia, especially Sumatra and Kalimantan, he had the fortuity to meet truly indigenous and minority people, staying in traditional villages and longhouses. This gave him a unique opportunity to be part of village life and observe local customs, rituals and ceremonies first-hand including the ceremonial use and function of tribal jewelry and body ornamentation. In 1974 Mr. Giehman acquired the very first item of his present collection, a gorgeous multicolored Dayak necklace fashioned from beads and this set him on the path of becoming a serious collector. His private collection of approximately 900 items represents a time period going back to the Bronze Age, shows exceptional diversity and is a wonderful illustration of tribal adornment art; it is a witness to ancient, ancestral traditions and timeless customs that are now fast disappearing with the incursion of modern times and ways. Well-known antique collector, author and Bali resident Bruce Carpenter wrote a book about the Giehman collection entitled Ethnic Jewellery from Indonesia: Continuity and Evolution. It is a sweeping overview of the history, evolution, materials, influences, and meanings of Indonesian ceremonial jewelry, using the Giehman collection as an illustrative guideline. It is a treasure throve for those who seek to expand their knowledge and understanding of the evolution of Indonesian ritual and ceremonial jewelry throughout the ages. Above all the book imparts an indelible impression of the richness, creativity and ingenuity of the tribes in their jewelry making art. Indonesian peoples throughout the archipelago have a rich ancestral culture and an abundant tradition of ceremonial jewelry; therefore it becomes a herculean task to describe the ceremonial jewelry used all through the land. The Carpenter book focuses on the ceremonial jewelry from minority peoples like the Nias, Batak, Toraja, Dayak, Sasak etc. and excludes the abundant, evolved and rich jewelry traditions of Java and Bali which have already been documented extensively by other authors. There is also no description of the traditional ornaments of Papua because they are very temporary and ephemeral and typically dedicated to and used in one single ceremony and discarded. They were mainly fashioned from impermanent, organic materials such as grasses, flowers, leaves, rattan and feathers and therefore non-durable. For the Papuans accumulation of possessions and wealth in the form of durable jewelry was not very important. Traditional Use of jewelry – The ritual and spiritual life of the ancient Indonesians was based on ancestor worship (founding family of a clan or village) and animism (worship of great nature spirits). Human’s role was to maintain balance between heaven, earth and the underworld through rituals, ceremonies and offerings. In the early tribal societies jewelry was strictly used for religious and ceremonial purposes due to its professed symbolic, magical and sacred properties. The cosmos and the human life cycle were at the root of ceremonial practice. Lifecycle ceremonies like birth, coming of age, marriage, war victory, harvest and death were solemnly celebrated through rites, rituals and ceremonies. Later on jewelry was also used as a bartering tool, in gift exchanges between clans or tribes, as bride price and as symbol

of the wealth and status of a family or clan. It was traditionally accumulated by tribal elders as patrimonial heirlooms called pusaka and considered communal property for use in village ceremonies. Jewelry was often imbued with magical powers and considered a tool of protection for warding off evil spirits, disease and calamities, to impart strength to warriors and fertility to young couples. Jewelry was often consecrated in ritual ceremonies and considered the property of the ancestors. This root belief was widespread amongst all tribes all over Indonesia. It came along with the ancient migrating Austronesian tribes who populated the Indonesian archipelago. Due to frequent contacts between tribes, clans and minorities for trade, alliances, intermarriage, etc. jewelry became a trade as well as a fashion item. The Minang in Sumatra for instance, traded with the Bugis and Makassars from Sulawesi and this is evident in the type and patterns of jewelry found in their communities. This was also fostered by itinerant silversmiths mainly from Sawu and Ndao, a tiny island off the coast of Rote, who traveled to neighboring islands and beyond to fashion pieces in areas where the craft was not exercised. They made commissioned jewelry and mixed their own ancient tribal designs with local patterns and sacred symbols. This custom began during the Bronze Age when they primarily worked with copper alloys until silver became more readily available. Jewelry Components – The oldest ornaments found in the Indonesian archipelago date from the Neolithic age and were made of stone, bone and shells, materials that were durable. They were primarily fashioned from animal teeth, claws and bones, tusks and fangs which traditionally symbolized force and virility. Teeth and claws from tiger, bear and crocodile were considered magical fetishes to protect warriors and shamans. Bracelets, anklets and earrings were fashioned from large seashells and giant clams; combs and bracelets were made from sea turtle shells; the leopard cone was the source of a translucent material that resembles alabaster. Prehistoric beads like brown carnelian beads from 3000 years ago were the earliest trade items. Beads were made of stone, shell or other hard materials before the advent of glass beads which were imported by the early European explorers. Mutisalah was an expensive and valuable bead dating from the 3rd BCE. Other natural materials like tusks from elephants, sea cows and dugong, hornbill skull and deer or water buffalo horn were carved and chiseled to make beautiful adornments, from thin rings to heavy bracelets. Elephant tusks were especially important in the Lesser Sunda Islands because ivory played a critical role in rituals and was considered a favorite item as bride price and a very valuable possession for royal families. Jewelry was considered valuable because of the often rare materials that were used to produce them, especially items that were not locally available but had to be obtained thru trading, bartering, gifting, or taken as spoils of war. In areas located far from the sea, jewelry and ornaments made from seashells were especially honored and coveted. In prehistoric days pieces made of gold were even rarer as gold was only found in certain parts of Borneo. South sea pearls are native to Indonesia but seldom used in jewelry except for mustika, which grows in the belly of a fish much like an oyster pearl. It is very rare and considered a lucky omen for the fisherman who finds it. Some materials like the red coral used in Minangkabau jewelry were so rare they did not travel at all. With the arrival of the Bronze Age metals became part of the production process. Metalworking craftsmen were highly esteemed and their craft, especially the working and mixing of alloys, was rigorously regulated and surrounded by secrecy, taboos and esoteric rituals. Metals like gold, silver, copper, tin, lead, iron, brass and bronze were classified and assigned medicinal and magical properties and powers. They were often associated with deities or heavenly beings. The simple and rudimentary tools in use during those early times have not changed much throughout the ages. Nimble hands and fingers and a creative mind were considered the more important. Indonesian gold became more plentiful and was traded as long as 2500 years ago. Gold ornaments were made during the Bronze Age. By the time of a Dutch expedition to Bali in 1597, gold was abundant and the king of Bali was reported to have a hoard of gold. Gold crowns and wedding ornaments in Sumba reflect its Hindu-Buddhist past. Gold alloys like copper and silver mixes were used to satisfy the preference for reddish gold. Silver was relatively scarce until the arrival of the Europeans. During the periods of colonization, silver coins started finding their way as a monetary or bartering tool. Silver was greatly appreciated because it could easily be melted down and refashioned into fabulous pieces. Timor was first to bring silver in circulation from Portuguese traders and colonizers. In addition

ivory from the Portuguese colony of Mozambique was brought in by traders and became a coveted material for fashioning beautiful jewelry. Though native to Sumatra, the Indonesian elephants were smaller than their African cousins and much tusk was imported during colonial times by Dutch and Portuguese traders who used the tusks as ballast in their ships before taking on spice or timber cargo in the islands. The Portuguese used ivory as a form of payment for the sandalwood they exported from Timor. Glass beads came from Java where they had been introduced by Dutch colonizers as legal tender. For that reason they denoted wealth. Glass beads were abundantly produced in Venice, Holland, France and China where the glassworking techniques had long been mastered. They were used in necklaces, to decorate clothing and accessories and highly appreciated. Some were for adornment only; others were imbued with healing powers for shamans. They were typically strung together in necklaces and combined with animal teeth, bone, brass sequins. The Toraja became especially adept at working beads into their ceremonial jewelry. Other gemstones like rubies, emeralds and sapphires came much later and were the exclusive prerogative of royalty. Patterns and Styles – Form and design were heavily influenced by culture, religion and trade. The various shapes of the jewelry pieces had their roots in the ancient past of Southeast Asia. In minority societies, fertility and reproduction were very important as it would ensure the survival of the tribe. For this reason a lot of jewelry pieces like the mamuli pendants from Sumba and the Batak duri-duri and padung-padung ear ornaments have a distinct sexual or reproductive connotation. Frequently these pieces were shaped in the form of male or female genitals, especially pieces representing the womb, the source of all humanity and the symbol of the nurturing earth mother. The oval shaped mamuli earrings dating from the Bronze Age evolved from plain, simple forms to very elaborate designs integrating images of humans and animals. Stylized human figures, animals and boats (associated with the arrival of the ancestors), and natural and mythological animals and beasts, sea creatures, crocodiles, turtles, trees and plants are found on jewelry; as are geometric designs such as stars, disks, triangles, dots, and straight, zigzag or wavy lines.

Batak Duri-Duri

Mamuli with Container

A striking feature about Indonesian ethnic jewelry is how some shapes like the mamuli and the maranga are universal and found everywhere throughout the archipelago yet show many variations between regions and tribes. Each tribe brings its own individual style, imagination, designs and motifs to the crafting of these pieces. In the next article we will take a closer look at the specific styles and workmanship of jewelry made by the various ethnic minority tribes in Indonesia as well as the tribal ceremonies and religious practices that gave rise to the meanings attributed to these sacred pieces.

The BOOGIE MAN WEARS PRADA By The Number One Ladies Detective Agency of Bali

Ladies beware of the Boogie Man wearing Prada. He doesn’t necessarily go for the designer label handbags but even a simple small backpack. I’m talking about what may be the most common crime here, the bag snatchers. Virtually everyone knows someone who has been attacked. Almost always females are the victims, often emotionally traumatised and physically banged up. As a long time resident of Bali I’ve heard the stories about the bag bandits, but it wasn’t until recently I became a victim. I live in Seminyak and often ride my bicycle around the area for shopping and errands. It’s a standard bike with a basket on the front, including a little bell, nothing fancy but it gets me around. One early afternoon I was riding down Sunset Road heading home with my handbag in the basket when suddenly a guy on a motorbike swooped in next to me and grabbed the bag out of the basket and raced off. Screaming I peddled faster after him but I had no chance of catching him. By the time I got to the traffic light he was nowhere to be seen. Furiously I raced home. He had taken all of my money, ATM card, driver’s licence, motorbike registration and hand phone. Everything was inside the bag. What to do? I knew the bank was still open so I grabbed my bank book and a copy of my passport then hopped on my motorbike and rushed there. They must have thought I was a mad woman as I stormed in practically shouting maling. The security guard hurried over and encouraged me to have a seat but I was too upset to sit. Someone in customer service immediately offered to help. After taking a few deep breaths I sat down and explained what had happened. I needed to get some money as I had none at home. She gave me a glass of water and encouraged me to calm down then explained I needed to get a police report before they could help me. I looked up at the clock and realized the bank was closing in five minutes. “But you’re closing in five minutes” I lamented. In a soothing voice she told me that they would wait for me while I went to the police. Incredulously I asked, “Really?”

Another friend told me she witnessed a girl in Poppy’s gang being dragged behind a motorbike still clutching onto her bag for dear life. When the driver saw a group of people he let go of the bag and raced away. The poor girl was carrying a substantial amount of money in her bag as she had just gone to the bank and taken out her year’s rent. There was no way she was going to let go of her bag and lose her rent money. She had been walking down Poppy’s gang when she was attacked and believed that the bandit had followed her from the bank, knowing she was carrying a lot of money. The poor girl’s legs were badly scraped up but she still had her rent money. In the past month two of my close friends were also attacked. One was riding her motorbike home in Dalung following the quiz at Arena restaurant. She slowed down as she approached a steep hill and at the bottom suddenly found a guy on a motorbike in her path. She had no choice but to stop. As she tried to manoeuvre around him he grabbed hold of the backpack she was wearing and tried to pull it off her. Somehow she managed to get out of his clutches and raced up the hill screaming at the top of her lungs until she reached the banjar. Some boys ran out to help her but the thief had mysteriously disappeared. Luckily she didn’t lose anything.

Even small families on bikes aren’t immune to the attacks. My friend was driving her baby and mum when a guy rode along side pretending to be friendly. Suddenly he grabbed one of the bags hanging from a hook at the front and raced off. The joke was on him, it only contained diapers!

It’s not just people riding motorbikes and bicycles that are being attacked, pedestrians are also targeted. An elderly European couple was walking leisurely along Jalan Legion near Bintang, with the woman closest to the road carrying her handbag over her shoulder. Suddenly a motorbike swerved to the edge of the curb and grabbed her bag, nearly knocking her over.

Don’t wear your bag over the shoulder

Car drivers be wary, lock your doors whilst driving as someone can open your passenger door and grab your bag while stopped at a traffic light. If you have an emergency like running out of petrol or get a flat tire, make sure you lock your car when you get out.

“Yes. I’ll wait for you. Go to the police now.” She assured me. At the police station in Tuban I was still in a rage. Although I wasn’t physically injured, I felt violated. A police officer painstakingly typed out a report for me. Apart from asking what had been stolen, he never asked what the thief looked liked nor the kind of motorbike he was driving. I asked what they were going to do about it, but they just smiled and tried to placate me. I hurried back to BCA bank and was allowed to enter by the security guard. I was surprised they had a new ATM card waiting for me. I was really impressed with their great service. This calmed me down considerably knowing I could take some money out. Following this incident, while relaying my story to friends, everybody had a story to tell. One girl had cleverly tied her bag to the inside of her bicycle basket, but was unfortunately dragged with her bicycle behind the motorbike for a distance until he let go of the bag. She was quite badly scraped up and bruised. Thank goodness I didn’t tie my bag to my bike.

Chief Sarjan said that the police have been going into communities and educating the local people about how to prevent theft in their lives. They have also put up banners in Denpasar giving warnings to be careful travelling by motorbike to avoid someone stealing their possessions. I suggested that they also put up some banners in English for the tourists and ex-pats. He advised anyone who has the misfortune to be a victim of theft to report it to either the tourist police or at the police station in Kerobokan, the driver’s licence centre. He recommended people not carry valuables with them when travelling, put any valuables in the storage compartment under the seat and make bank transfers for large sums of money rather than carry the funds out of the bank. There may be potential thieves hanging around banks scouting for people taking out large sums of money to follow.

My second friend lives in Ubud and rides a bicycle around town, often using a narrow short-cut path that runs through the Monkey Forest to New Kuning. This pathway is often used by locals on motorbikes and people on foot. One evening she was riding her bicycle home when a guy jumped out from the bushes and attacked her, pushing her off the bike and taking her bag. She’s not the only one in Ubud to be attacked. Another friend informed me that she has heard of many incidents in Penastanin area.

There have also been many incidents of bag snatching in Sanur especially on Jalan Tamblingan and Jalan Kesari.

Avoid using shoulder bags

69 cases of bag theft reported but only 5 of the culprits were apprehended, who are now residing in the local jail. The chief told me that it’s very difficult to catch these bandits as they use hit and run tactics with the incidents happening in various places in Bali with mostly females victims, many of them reported minor injuries from being pushed off their bikes.

Who are the bag bandits? From all reports, they’re Indonesian men aged twenty and older. Usually they’re riding a motorbike and often travel two on a bike, so that the passenger can grab the bag. Beware some of them carry a knife to cut the strap on a bag. These are the most dangerous as they can slice your arm and cause serious damage. Sometimes they try to push you off your bike so you’re an easy target. Others may try to pull a passenger off the back while you’re driving. Unfortunately many of the victims don’t go to the police and report the theft unless they need a police report for a lost driver’s licence, passport, ATM or credit card or registration for a car or motor-bike. A lost hand phone is so common that it’s not necessary to get a police report to get your old number back. Because many of the thefts aren’t reported it’s impossible to estimate the actual number occurring around Bali. To get the scoop on the legal side of the bag snatching saga I talked to chief of Human Relations, I Bagus Sarjan at the Denpasar police station. He assured me that the police are very concerned with this problem in Bali. In 2011 there were

Use a backpack

Wear a packback

Things to do to protect yourself from this happening. • Always put the strap of your bag across your body, not on the shoulder. It’s too easy to slide a bag off the shoulder. • Wear a backpack • Have 2 mirrors on your motorbike so you can see behind you at all times. • Put one or two mirrors on your bicycle to keep an eye out for bikes getting too close to you. • Bicycles try to keep to the edge of the road. • Get a whistle like the security guards and put it on a cord around your neck and blow it if anyone tries to attack you. In Legion you can buy one at Patriot shop on Jl. Patih Jelantik near Kuta Galleria. They sell equipment for security guards. Hopefully the loud noise will startle them and alert others nearby to help you. • Don’t carry all your belongings in your bag. Try to carry your HP in your pocket. Put your bag under your seat if you have room or place on the floor between your feet. Don’t carry your passport or credit card unless you need them. • Cover your bag with a jacket whenever possible • If you suspect someone is following you try to get into more traffic so you’re not alone. • Always try to run away from them before they can grab your bag or try to push you off your bike. • Wear a helmet so you have some protection for your head. • Start screaming MALING at the top your lungs. If any people are close by they’ll come to your rescue hopefully. • When walking along the street carry your bag on the side away from the street. • Car drivers lock your doors whilst driving and lock your doors when you get out of your car for any reason. • Most of all keep alert to people travelling near you and don’t allow them to get too close if you can help it.
