ebuah kebijakan brilian. Selain menikmati penyisihan Pajak Hotel dan Restoran (PHR), Pemerintah Kabupaten (Pemkab) Badung juga akan segera merealisasikan ribuan rumah bagi enam kabupaten penerima PHR, yakni Karangasem, Klungkung, Bangli, Buleleng, Tabanan dan Jembrana. Bupati Badung I Nyoman Giri Prasta mengatakan, ada 2.000 unit rumah yang akan dibagi-bagikan di seluruh Bali pada tahun 2018. Program ini sesuai dengan tagline yang kerap didengung-dengungkan, yakni Dari Badung Membangun Bali. “Tahun 2018 nanti, kami akan mengeluarkan dua ribu rumah untuk Bali,” ujar Giri Prasta saat acara pelantikan Pengurus Kadin Badung, Selasa (28/11) lalu. Menurut Giri Prasta, bantuan bedah rumah layak huni dibagi menjadi tiga kategori bantuan. Seperti bedah rumah sebesar Rp 55 juta, bantuan rehab berat sebesar Rp 30 juta dan rehab ringan sebesar Rp 15 juta. Bangunan rumah ini terdiri dari dua kamar tidur, satu ruang tamu dan satu kamar kecil/toilet. “Bantuan bedah

S

rumah akan dibagi secara proporsional. Contohnya, Buleleng dapat 200 rumah, Bangli 200, Klungkung 300, Jembrana 300 dan seterusnya,” ungkapnya. Melalui program tersebut, Giri Prasta optimis dalam lima tahun ke depan tidak ada masyarakat Bali yang tinggal di rumah tidak layak huni. Terlebih hingga tidak memiliki rumah, sehingga pihaknya berharap dukungan semua pihak. “Kalau ini bisa, kurang dari lima tahun, Bali kami targetkan sudah tuntas,” katanya. Selain untuk enam kabupaten penerima PHR, program bedah rumah juga akan diterapkan di Gumi Keris. Kadis Perumahan Rakyat dan Kawasan Pemukiman A.A. Ngurah Bayu Kumara Putra menjelaskan, ada 3.300 rumah tangga miskin yang menjadi sasaran bantuan ini. Pada tahun 2017 ini, jumlah rumah tangga sasaran (RTS) yang telah diverifikasi berdasarkan usulan dari desa se-Kabupaten Badung sebanyak 3.315 RTS. Rinciannya, rehab total sebanyak 841 RTS dengan bantuan dana Rp 55 juta, peningkatan kualitas rehab sedang sebanyak 794 RTS dengan bantuan dana Rp 30 juta dan peningkatan kualitas rehab ringan sebanyak 1.190 RTS dengan bantuan dana Rp 15 juta. Untuk rumah tangga sasaran yang diberikan bantuan rumah layak huni tahun 2017 adalah sebanyak 625 RTS dengan besaran dana bantuan sebesar Rp 55 juta per RTS, sisanya akan diusulkan pada APBD tahun 2018 dan APBD tahun 2019. Bayu Kumara Putra menambahkan, dana bantuan sosial bedah rumah diberikan dalam bentuk uang yang ditransfer ke rekening masing-masing penerima bantuan rumah sesuai SK Penetapan oleh Bupati Badung. Dari 625 penerima bantuan rumah layak huni, untuk Kecamatan Petang mendapat alokasi bantuan sebanyak 111 RTS, Abiansemal 264 RTS, Mengwi 244 RTS, Kuta Utara 3 RTS dan Kuta Selatan 3 RTS yang berasal dari 45 desa/kelurahan di Kabupaten Badung.

BTN/bud

f you happen to travel to Ubud village through Batuan village, you will surely pass the intersection of Belah Tanah hamlet, Batuan Kaler village, Sukawati subdistrict, Gianyar. Right in the midst

I

of the intersection is established a statue of a giant baby. At the edges grows a large blackboard tree considered a sacred tree and commonly used to make sanctified barong mask. According to Hindu community in Bali, the inter-

BTN/bud

section is made sacred so that it is bordered with a fence. When people pass through the area, they will certainly pause to deliver an offering. Aside from being done by local community, such a practice is also carried out by other people wishing to travel to Gianyar, Bangli and Ubud. Standing at this intersection will make you perceive different vibration. Its magical aura is strong. Based on stories of local people, bizarre incidents frequently happened at the location. Residents living around the baby statue believe that it will cry at mid-night on full moon. A crying baby is often heard by non-native residents. In addition, saying rude and behaving arrogant are not allowed at the location. Otherwise, undesired incident will occur to the violator. In the past, someone from Klungkung took his son to pass through the intersection leading to Denpasar. When arriving at the site, the old man said if his son was the same as the statue. As an impact, his son kept crying until he arrived home. Ultimately, the man then apologized to the statue by delivering an oblation. According to local people, before the statue establishment, several accidents occurred around the intersection. However, after establishing and consecrating the statue, the accident diminished. According to a medium, the highway was formerly traversed by holy men, so that it was prone to be passed through specifically by people having bad intention. Meanwhile, some people said if the baby statue had something to

do with the Hayang Tibha Temple located in the west of the statue. Divine ray of Lord Hayang Tibha lay in the statue. It was confirmed by the testimony of local temple priest that always paid devotional works at the statue area. “Having established and made

regular ritual, the hazards of accident can be avoided. Right in the Padmasana shrine has been established the baby statue Brahma Lelare symbolizing that everything should be started with a small part,” said hamlet chief of Belah Tanah. (BTN/015)
