TEAM'S NOTE
It's Time to Learn! First of all, we’d like to express our sincere sympathy for the victims of the recent Jakarta bombings. Security efforts have now been put on the highest levels in Jakarta and Bali to prevent such a thing from recurring. Despite the continuing threat, Bali has so far been successful in maintaining security over the past few years. However, this doesn’t mean that the Bali police and security authorities in general don’t make any attempt to not boosting hard works in keeping the Island of Gods a safe holiday destination. Please tolerate the vehicle and purse checks when entering a shopping mall and other establishments should this action disturb your convenience. This is all done to assure well being here in our beloved Bali. August sees a busy month for Bali, with festivals and events are lining up on the island’s event calendar. Following up the recently ended the Legian Beach Festival’s success is the fourth Sanur Village Festival (SVF) that will be on again this weekend, August 12-16. Cultural activities will continue to dominate this year's SVF through a series of traditional arts performances, parades, live music, water sports and a nonstop food festival. August 17 will be another colorful day as Indonesia is celebrating its 64th Independence Day. Parades and games will be widely held in areas of Denpasar on this day and traffic jams, of course, are always expected. Now, it’s a pleasure for us to announce that The Mag will grow fatter starting the month of September. New exciting features to provide you with more information about everything Bali will be added to the contents. Some features, however, will be left out (e.g. Bali Road Trip). For our last Bali Road Trip, we paid a tribute to our very own neighborhood of Seminyak and Kuta. Even with all the changes these two areas have undergone, we still find that Seminyak and Kuta as fitting to be our comfort zones (see page 20). In this issue’s The Mag we also give you an exclusive pass to go behind the scene to check out the making of Bali’s future famous artists and arts (see page 48). Our other regular features are still here; therefore, enjoy reading! And enjoy Bali too!

Bali Ranks No.1, Again! Travel + Leisure Magazine has concluded its annual survey of holiday destinations. For many years, Bali consistently ranked as the world's best island in the prestigious Travel + Leisure Magazine poll, slipping momentarily in the 2008 polling to the number two slot. However, the 2009 survey has returned Bali to the coveted number 1 spot, followed by Galapagos, which displaced Bali in the 2008 rankings.
EU Lifts Ban on Four Indonesian Airlines
On 15th July 2009, EU officially lifted its ban on 4 of 51 Indonesian airlines from flying to and from Europe which the Union imposed in July 2007 due to a slew of air accidents. The four airlines immediately released from the ban are: Garuda Indonesia, Mandala Airlines, Airfast and Premi Air. Following the lifting of the ban, Garuda Indonesia plans to fly to Amsterdam via Dubai before the end of the year.
Red Carpet Champagne Bar
A new stylish hangout has recently been opened on Bali’s eat street adding to the many upscale hotspots eat street is known for. This place is hard to miss as its signature red carpet extends to the street, giving you the sense of a VIP arriving in style.

BALI ROAD TRIP
W
e’ve driven far to Bali’s deepest corners – even crossing the straits of Bali and Lombok – that for many times we forgot our own comfort zones in Seminyak and Kuta. The current busy time in Bali gave us a hard knock on the head, made us realize that these two areas play a very important role in shaping the island as one of the most visited holiday destinations in the world. Of course, we need to party every once in a while; without waiting any longer, we strolled the trafficked roads of Seminyak and Kuta to join the hype.
IT’S OUR VERY OWN
SEMINYAK & KUTA
20
THE MAG It's Our Very Own Seminyak & Kuta
“Kuta is probably like nasi campur for the Balinese: it tastes darn good even though it looks bad.” We went out at noon time from our Oberoi base, heading to the once sleepy fishing village of Kuta. Looking at the present hectic Kuta, I thought to myself, “Kuta is probably like nasi campur for the Balinese: it tastes darn good even though it looks bad.” I mean, many consider Kuta as the ‘absolute ugliness’ of the island due to its mix-bag tourism projects in combination with the ridiculous commercialism. Aside from that, Bali has many other much prettier beaches; yet, tourists and locals alike still flock around the long-stretched beach for it's better than nothing. It's most crowded in the late afternoon when the sun is close to going down. Old things still remain: people posing with the orange-colored sky, couples holding hands, some guys walking the dogs, kids playing on the sand, local ladies offering massage, braids, nail coloring along with countless guys trying to offer temporary tattoos. Yes, the area of Kuta Beach is still about the boldest board shorts and people really let their hair down.
However, stepping off the sand of Kuta Beach, you will now also notice that the current Kuta is packed with rising (apparently higher and higher) buildings made merrier with colorful glittering lights. These buildings are now the ones that turn the used-to-be sleepy hollow area into a spot that knows no days and/or nights with the almost non-stop activities and crowds. Up to the Legian area, more and more amusement centers like nightclubs, restaurants and shops are now making Kuta a place that doesn’t sleep. Not only that, the different loud music and theme building decorations of each of the venues are somewhat sending out messages to draw the passers by to get in. Yet, the ‘war’ doesn’t stop at that point for LCD screens have also taken place to give a more obvious picture on what’s really going on inside each of the venues. Anyway, having our fill of Kuta’s frenetic energy, we shifted just up the coast to the less manic surrounds of Seminyak. The stylish Seminyak looked very apparent, especially because the sidewalks served as somewhat a catwalk with ‘street fashion show’ could always be expected during days and nights. It is not a surprise that Seminyak also serves as the home and playground for many of the most tasteful people and designers on the island. Owing to its high density of high end shopping, combined with the clustering of many fine eating establishments, it has rapidly become one of the most well known tourist areas in Bali. In addition to a few commercial strips
Road near Ground Zero in Legian with popular and lively restaurants, bars and good crafts/furniture/antique shops, there are a few notable establishments that have earned numerous titles as the best venue or party spot in various magazines. This area is also very popular with expatriates. Land and accommodation prices are amongst the highest in Bali with plenty of luxury spas and hotels abound. But don’t worry, even in the heart of Seminyak there are still a few budget hotels. The current frantic state of Kuta and the chic ambiance of Seminyak may come as a disappointment for those who knew these two areas in the good old day: Kuta as a fishing village and the rice fields of Seminyak. However, even now and then, when the sun slowly and gracefully sinks into the horizon of Kuta and Seminyak, every pair of eyes would look at one specific spot in the sky. It's very comforting to see that finally we, despite of our differences, agree on one thing: sunset in Seminyak and Kuta never fails you.

…I’ve heard that Bali has some nice secluded beaches, but not that many people want to tell me where they are. I really want to soak in the paradise and enjoy a nice swim on the beach.
…I want to see the monkeys in Uluwatu. I’ve already seen the monkeys in Sangeh and almost got ransacked by monkeys. I almost lost my camera. They say the monkeys in Uluwatu aren’t as bad. (TM: The Mag doesn't agree, the monkeys are also pretty sneaky!)
…I guess I want to go up to the north of Bali like to Lovina. Not that many people talk about the north of Bali, which I figure means that not many people have been there or it’s not a very good place. Either way I still want to see what it’s like.

THE MAG Heart of Bali : Teenage Simio
How did you come up with the idea to make an album to help the YPAC? My daughter went for a school excursion to YPAC (Yayasan Pembina Anak Cacat) near Nusa Dua and after hearing her stories of the disabled children I was intrigued to help. After that I often visited YPAC and asked around to see how I could help. They informed me that they needed funds to build a new building to accommodate more children and so with my background in music I came up with the idea to make a CD compilation where all profit of the CD’s sold will be given to the YPAC and hopefully help them complete the new facility. Tell us about the whole process of completing the album. Having produced a few songs before since the 90’s, this would be my first attempt in producing a full album compilation. I’m into many genres of music but being a DJ I chose to go for dance music. Beginning the project, I started with 30 songs that I had arranged, but needed the approval of the original artists and their record labels. From the 30 songs I had selected finally
only 12 songs got the cut, which I put into the album. The whole process took about 4-5 months to complete. The longest process was getting approval from the record labels to use the artist songs in this album. I know the artist that contributed their songs, and all were willing to help me for the cause.
What are your short term & longterm goals? Right now I am trying to find a better way to distribute the album. I need all the help I can get to promote this album so I can gain more funds for YPAC. Right now to order the album you can go to my web site at www.teenagesimio.com. Each CD only cost Rp 50.000, I take no profit what so ever and all of the sales are donated to YPAC. For the long term, I wish to produce a volume 2 album maybe with a different genre of music than the first album.
Have you seen any positive progress in achieving your goals? The album was only just released on the 9th of July so not much progress can be seen right now. I have gained much praise for my efforts during the albums release party that was held in Syndicate night club and many people were moved to buy the album and help my cause. A positive effect that I see in my efforts in raising funds for the YPAC is that more people will know about this organization and I hope will be moved to help out in anyway they can. It was also amazing to see the many young people that came to the release party, wanting to buy the album in intention to help. Show your support by going to www. teenagesimio.com and order a copy of the CD compilation. Only Rp. 50,000

My First Trip to Bali
Maria, Italy

THE MAG My First Trip to Bali
Maria on Legian Street, 1999
Blushes sparked on her face as Maria was trying hard to come up with her limited Indonesian words and combine them into grammatically correct Indonesian sentences. Laughter broke open at some point when she got all trapped and confused from playing a fluent Indonesian speaker. A couple of sips from her black coffee finally led the broken accent into an understandable meaning that we all would agree on: “Bali Damai” (peace in Bali). More black coffees were served and our conversation continued…
When was your first trip to Bali and why? I was living in Rome in 1999. It’s actually a nice city but somehow I don’t think Rome is the ‘right’ place to raise kids; and I had a baby then. Well, this is just my personal opinion. Anyway, I have a couple of friends who were already living in Bali at that time. I got so inspired listening to their stories about how enchanting and beautiful Bali is. So, it was just like that, within that same year I traveled to Bali for the first time. But not just for a holiday, but to permanently live in the island. Gosh, how I looovve Bali a lot! The people were amazing; well, they still are. I could always talk to just random people. The best part is: they’d talk back! Don’t get me wrong; I mean, I’ve never experienced this kind of hospitality in places like Rome or London, where the people are ignorant. That’s why; it feels so wonderfully different here. What was your best memory of the trip? Oh, I always remember how the Balinese who live around the Bintang Supermarket with their particular habit. After working they would go home and took a shower. With their hair still all wet and wearing pajamas, they would go to the nearby bakso (meatballs) street-cart and ate by the roadside. For me, it was so astonishing. I also will remember Bali as the place that made me ride a motorbike. It’s so much fun.
What was the best hang-out place back then? For an establishment, I’d say GOA in Legian. I liked the place because it had everything: restaurant, dance floor and others. Too bad it had already been closed down now. I know that Bali has a lot of bars and other such hangout places. But for me, it’s always about the beach. I have this one beach that I really love from the first time I came to Bali up until today. But I’m not going to tell you guys about this beach, because I don’t want this beach to be spoiled by popularity. What is the biggest change since your trip back then? Dreamland. They killed Dreamland. Mamma mia, I can’t believe it! I can still clearly remember when I had to walk down through the bushes carrying my baby just to get to the beach. It wasn’t easy, you know, especially when you’re carrying a baby with you. But that’s part of the fun. Now all I can see in Dreamland is cement everywhere. It’s sad, but Dreamland now is not as stunning as it was. What happened to the lovely wooden and bamboo buildings? Cement is not cool. What made you decide to move here? I came here to live here. I know it sounds crazy, especially because I’ve never been to Bali before. Well, it’s hard for me to explain. Okay, I will try to say it in Bahasa Indonesia, but please don’t laugh: “Saya suka sekali Bali” (I really like Bali). Don’t you agree?

POPPIES LANE A mass tourism enclave. An income generator. A center of ridiculous commercialism. The Bali’s ‘absolute ugliness’. But the Poppies Lanes are still glorious. It’s funny how these two lanes, and all the smaller gangs connecting them, can make a sip of the ice-cold Bintang tastes ten times better.
P
oppies Lane I and II in Kuta are dedicated for those seeking fun and sun in all affordable ways. These two lanes are busy networks lined with bars and restaurants, basic accommodations and stalls selling fake sunglasses, surfwear and pirated DVDs. Yep, Poppies Lanes are all about rampant commerce and gang-side drunken nights. When walking on the lanes, you might need to prepare yourself for plenty of attentions from the shopkeepers. Yet, aside from the somewhat chaotic state, Poppies Lanes still retain a slice of Balinese charms; the smell of incense wafts down the gangs and offerings of flower petals are laid out each morning to appease the gods. Poppies Lanes also stand out due to the strategic location, from which people could effortlessly access the legendary Kuta Beach from one end and the party street of Legian/ Kuta on the other. The thick ambiance of beach life adds more to the area’s popularity, especially with a number of surfers-dedicated bars. The 34
THE MAG Poppies Lane
laid-back Rastafarian lifestyle also gives another flavor to the night as some bars play the tunes of Mr. Marley in small gangs connecting Poppies Lane I and II. Some tourists testify that sipping the ice-cold Bintang beer would taste ten times better in Poppies Lanes. Despite its highly celebrated name as a must-visit spot during a holiday in Bali, Poppies Lanes (and Kuta in general) actually represent the ‘absolute ugliness’ of the island. The fact that Poppies are developed as specific mass tourism enclaves (thus, generating income for the island) is still seen as something disappointing by many. The mix-bag tourism projects in the area in combination with the ridiculous commercialism are a big turn-off, especially for those who knew Bali in the good old days. Ugly or not, the faces in Poppies Lanes are still friendly, the smiles are still warm and the atmosphere is still inviting. One thing worth noting down is probably the development in the rest of the area (which is not that very much left) needs to be more restrained.

THE MAG Food Review: The Junction
idely known for their delicious gourmet sandwiches and large tasty salads, The Junction has been attracting patrons seeking a quick fix for lunch, from day one. Located on Bali's Eat Street in Seminyak, The Junction is packed at lunch time and lately, it seems that more people are getting aware of The Junction’s very diverse and distinctive dinner selection. With a menu that is composed by one of Bali's most renowned chefs, dining at The Junction can almost be experienced as fine dining but without the high bills at the end, which makes it very accessible. The vast variety offered on the night-time menu amazed me. The large portion salads from lunchtime are also available at night (which makes them perfect starters) and several great soups and delicious appetizers compliment the starter section of the menu. For main course, there are also plenty of options. One rather vast is the tasty gourmet crepes selection with a variety of fillings and even the pasta selection is quite diverse.
Tasmanian Salmon Tartar
Grilled Australian Beefsteak I started my meal off with an appetizer of Tasmanian Salmon Tartar; a small tower of smoked and ceviche style salmon, atop a base of cucumber and dill relish with sesame crisps on the side. It was a refreshing starter that was presented very well and it certainly contributed to the fine dining experience. As main course I had a juicy grilled Australian beefsteak; tender in texture and melting in my mouth. This well prepared steak was accompanied by sauteed mushrooms and stewed ginger carrots, heightening the levels of flavor. Not quite a boring dish! I closed of my surprising meal with a spiced pear mille-feuille, poached in herbs and red wine and served in between vanilla cream and a sheet of pastry. The excess wine used in poaching was turned into crushed ice and was served along side the mille-feuille. The Junction at night time definitely lives up to their promise of first class food, service and quality without burning a big hole in your wallet. By the way, the meals offered on The Junction's dinner menu can also be requested for lunch, expanding the menu to "more than just sandwiches" (and those great salads of course).

BALINESE AND RICE Rice is the basis of life, therefore certain rituals must be done from planting to harvesting.
A
GOLDEN FIELD OF RICE OF TABANAN
The rice turns golden in the field in Tabanan. The little shrine standing in the middle of the field seems to have pleased the Gods as that year’s crops were quite abundance.

THE MAG Balinese and Rice
Balinese friend of mine once said that he hasn’t had a complete meal unless he has had rice. As you probably know, rice is the basic food for most of Asians. However, it is more than just staple food for Balinese - it is the basis of life itself. Endowed with such fertile and arable lands, the Balinese also practice their creativity with the rice and offerings to show their gratitude. Therefore, in treating rice as the basis of life, the Balinese hold certain rituals from planting to harvesting. The rituals of planting, maintaining, irrigating and harvesting rice certainly enrich the cultural life of Bali. At the beginning of planting time, after the water buffalos walk the rice fields several times, ceremonies are held to carry the young stems of rice that have been nurtured in a special nursery. On each section of the rice fields, the corner nearest to Mount Agung will receive the honor to be the first place to receive the young stems. The planning and responsibility of the irrigation and planting schedule are arranged through subak, a Balinese system that ties together rice cultivation with its water temple system. Throughout growing time and at harvesting, ceremonies are also held and offerings are presented to Dewi Sri, the goddess of rice. This is why in the middle of rice fields you often find little shrines with neatly decorated flowers, fruits and offerings. The belief that the gods and goddesses appreciate the mundane pleasures as much as the mortals is an important aspect of religious life in Bali. Treating the cycling process of planting and harvesting rice with so much respect is also believed to please the gods; which in effect, would also please the humans with abundance of crops.

Sarong

THE MAG Typical Bali: Sarong
S
arong is a length of fabric wrapped around the waist and worn as a kilt by men and as a skirt by women. In Bali, when attending Hindu ceremonies, it is a must for everyone to wear sarong. There are two types of ceremonial/praying sarong, and they are called kamen (inner layer) and saput (outer layer). Women only wear kamen during the ceremony while men wear both kamen and saput. Colors of the ceremonial sarong normally include grey, black and white which represent the three major Hindu Gods (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva). Sarong is not a must when laying offering or conducting prayers in home temples. As tourism brought a substantial influence to the island, Bali currently is also known for its colorful beach sarong with floral, striped, crocheted and animal patterns.

THE MAG Food Review: Braga Cafe
raga Café in Seminyak Square is one of those hidden places that have finally flown under the radar of food enthusiasts. Bringing in classic, adventurous flavors from the entire Indonesian archipelago, it is not a surprise that Braga attracts a long list of not only Indonesian, but also international customers with curious, hungry minds. Sited just within a 5-minute walk from our office, the words of mouth came by quickly. It’s been six months now since Braga opened its doors; we were regretful we didn’t stop by earlier. Going to Braga during lunch hour, we could hardly wait to try a number of items out of the restaurant’s decent menu. It took only a while to have a friendly staff written down our orders: Sup Buntut Goreng (fried oxtail braised with Indonesian herbs, served with vegetables in clear soup, chili sauce and emping melinjo (fried chips made of Gnetum gnemon fruit), Gado-gado (assorted boiled

vegetables Indonesian salad, served with peanut sauce and crackers), Club Sandwich (three pieces of toast bread comprising of chicken, smoked beef, cheese, tomato, eggs, lettuce served with french fries) and Nasi Goreng Gila (fried rice with sausages, meatball, diced chicken and egg). Although all the dishes we ordered were fabulous, Nasi Goreng Gila (literally means Crazy Fried Rice) was probably the most outstanding one. It looked like we shared the same taste with many other customers as this crazy fried rice turned out to be the most sought-after dish in Braga. Braga’s free wireless internet is an added value, which allowed us to eat our yummy lunch, sit down to work while nursing our cold Healthy Juice (caisim, cucumber, pineapple and lime) and Orango Juice . Prices, however, will experience 20% increment in August. Don’t worry, because this is certainly not that bad news. Prices of the
dishes we ordered ranged from IDR 15,000– 32,000 (old prices) so it is still going to be very affordable. Sitting outside would probably be the best location to sit while in Braga, because it will provide you with the best view during the Saturday Market event, when live jazz performances are held in the night. Aside from that, simply watching the people as they walk down the Seminyak Square’s pavement could also be an entertainment; if nothing else, it’s a fashion show of sorts. Braga Café opens daily from 9am to 10.30pm. Selamat Makan!

The Making of Bali’s Fine Arts and Artists The best front-row seat in a theatre can never beat backstage access of the training ground for Bali’s famous artists of tomorrow.
B
ali’s increasing popularity as one of the world’s top holiday destinations has in a way caused worries within the Balinese communities. The fear that the Balinese culture might be threatened by foreign influences brought along by the international tourists, has encouraged a number of Balinese people to take actions. In their own capacity, each of these individuals was embracing movements that today have resulted in the establishment of a number of art institutions. The good news is: these institutions also give the chance for visitors to take part in the process of conserving the culture of their holiday island. It’s a lovely experience that can serve to give foreign visitors a deeper appreciation of just how seriously and totally the Balinese are dedicated to their art. One of the great individuals with a strong commitment to protect Balinese art from extinction is Nyoman Mandra from Klungkung. In his home in Kamasan Village (which is an unknown tourist site in Klungkung), he set up a sanggar (studio and workshop) for anyone (even tourists) to learn the classic Kamasan style painting. Mandra’s strong commitment to the style of his ancestors is found not only in his own pure examples of the Kamasan style, but in his fostering of younger 48

artists. His students have gone on to win prizes in Bali-wide festivals, and to have students of their own. The sanggar is also the centre of other arts, including a thriving gamelan. Mandra’s works and those of his students’ have been recognized by important cultural critics and modern artists have gone to him to study the roots of Balinese art. The village of Kamasan in Klungkung (the oldest kingdom in Bali), has an ancient tradition of painting. With its roots leading back to the great Javanese empire of Majapahit, it is far from the usual tourist tracks; and so many visitors to Bali get the false impression that Ubud is the centre of art. The art of Kamasan is the classic style based on the shadow theatre or wayang. Kamasan Village once included many wayang puppeteers, although few remain. For many centuries that tradition was practiced by the Sangging descent group, who gave their name to the section of the village of Kamasan, where present-day artists are still found. Early in the nineteenth century the Sangging descent group died out in Kamasan through lack of male heirs, but they passed on their tradition to others in the village through the most famous artists of that era, Modara.

Despite the many developments in Balinese painting during the twentieth century, the classic art of Kamasan is continued. It is one of Modara’s descendants (Nyoman Mandra himself) who has done the most to keep Kamasan’s art true to their style of the ancestors. Mandra was a student of one of leading artists of the previous generation, his uncle I Nyoman Dogol. From him he also learnt to observe the many great examples of Kamasan painting found in temples in the village.

TEN DRAMATIC BALINESE DANCES Along with the Hindu religion, the Indian influences in Balinese dances are also significant. Balinese strong identity adapts these various influences with native religion of animism and folklore traditions, creating an expression distinctively flavored by Balinese ethnicity. Some of the dances are intended to appease the gods and goddesses, with the hope that they will bless the village. Other dances also manifest the great complexity of Balinese daily lives which are never detached from their religious beliefs. Much like the training of gamelan orchestra players, dance training begins when one is still very young.
1 Rejang
Rejang is a slow dance in which the dancers (who are all females) move in a slow and noble fashion towards the altar, twirling fans or lifting their sashes. Their costumes range from a very simple attire to an elaborate dress complete with headdress.
2
Pendet
This dance is usually performed by married women, moving in very dignified and elegant way to carry and present offerings to the gods and the goddesses.
3 Janger
Janger is performed by young girls. The girls are open shouldered, dressed in a piece of cloth wrapped around the chest, and a batik wrap on the waist down. Most of the dances are performed sitting down, with highly coordinated hand, shoulder, and eye movements.

Baris
Literally means warrior formation, Baris is a warrior dance usually danced by men. The movements are dramatic. It is hard to distinguish whether it is the dancer that follows the orchestra, or the other way around. You could say that they both go off into their own dimensions, yet at certain well-defined times meet to create an astounding tapestry. The dancers wear elaborate head decoration, from a gold-colored head band to leaves and strings of frangipani blossoms.
5 Gambuk
Gambuh is a danced drama. It tells the courtly story of a Javanese prince in his quest for a beautiful Balinese princess.
6 Barong
Barong is probably the most well known dance that narrates the fight between good and evil. This dance is the classic example of Balinese way of acting out mythology, resulting in myth and history being blended into one reality.
Hyang Dedari 7 Sang (Trance Dance)
This dance is performed to entertain the gods and the goddesses to appease them or to ask for their blessings. A bad harvest or an outburst of an illness may call for such a dance. The preparation for this dance may take months, as prepubescent girls who have never danced are trained to relax their mind to be able to get into a trance state. The gods and the goddesses will enter their bodies as they enter trance, and they will dance with movements that they have not mastered in their normal state. They may act and sound like a horse or a monkey. When they collapse, the village women will chant to ask the gods and the goddesses to peacefully leave the bodies of the young girls.
8 Kebyar
Kebyar is usually danced by two women with beautiful, long, shiny black hair accentuated at the top by a band of frangipani blossoms. Fans on one hand, they move dramatically. Feet are strongly grounded, and hands and feet move abruptly.
9 Legong
The dance of legong is the most feminine dance. It is usually danced by two females before they reach puberty (in fact, they must retire by the time they reach puberty).
10
Kecak
Kecak is a spectacular dance usually performed at night, surrounding a bonfire. This dance is also known as The Monkey Dance, for the movements may remind us of monkey's movements. There can literally be one hundred or more bare-chested men, sitting down on the ground surrounding the bonfire, led by a priest in the middle. The only tunes to accompany them are the beats of their palms hitting their chests, their thighs, or other parts of their bodies, or their claps, rhythmically accompanied by shouting and chanting.

Go Green In Bali Bali is a beautiful island to visit and like many other tourist destinations, being such a popular spot brings many problems. One concerning problem that we at The Mag have come to notice is the ever growing environmental problems that effect this paradise island. We at The Mag hope that all travelers will take (little) time to read these points and take them to action, in order to lessen the damage. So please, keep Bali Beautiful.
1. Refill your water bottle
6. Eco-travelling
2. Please don’t litter
7. Lights out
Instead grabbing a new bottle of mineral water, why not keep that bottle and refill it. You can refill for free, in some places such as JP's Warung Club in Dhyana Pura.
It’s a habit we should all try to keep, and that is just “don’t litter”. If no trashcan is in sight, just keep it in your bag or pocket until you come across one, and then dispose of it correctly.
3. See some rubbish, pick it up
Add that little extra part in keeping Bali clean by picking scraps of trash ignorant people have discarded carelessly and then find the appropriate place to dispose of it.
4. Reuse or refuse plastic bags
Sometimes shops will still put your goods into plastic bags. It’s ok to refuse the plastic bags, if you’re carrying your own. You may get a strange look from the cashier, if so; just explain your trying to "Keep Bali Beautiful!”
5. Walk more!
To keep the air of Bali cleaner, it’s always better to walk. Other than being a healthy alternative, you may accidentally stumble onto a small store or unseen bar which you may have missed.
52
THE MAG What's Happening
What better way to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature in Bali than to take an eco-tourism tour. Many companies provide trips into the untouched wilderness of Bali, or the unspoiled coral reefs.
Leaving your AC on is a huge waste of valuable electrical energy. It’s better to turn off your AC and lights before heading out.
8. It’s better to go out for dinner
It is sometimes tempting to take-away food to enjoy in the comfort of the place you are staying, but the packaging of the food adds up to the pile of trash that is thrown away.
9. Support local industries
Sending imported goods uses up much of the worlds fossil fuel resources, compared to using products already available in Bali. By supporting local industries we can also improve the economy for the community in Bali.
10. Water preservation
The amount of clean water in Bali is slowly becoming scarcer due to over use. Small things we can do to help over come the water crisis are by taking shorter showers and turning of the taps when we brush our teeth.

Tegallalang is a major area for handicraft production in Bali. There are several business in this area, but they are not visible to the passing-by tourits. The view here on the rice is amazing.
Tulamben is a small town on the north-east coast of Bali. It is now popular for its most famous dive site that contains a stunningly diverse underwater ecosystem, especially around the wreck of the Liberty Glo, a US Army Transport ship torpedoed by Japanese submarines in 1942.
BARGAINING IN BALI 1. No matter how much the vendors give as the opening price, you have to bargain for as much as half (or even less) of the price. 2. It is better for you to go to the shop that has everything: t-shirts, shorts, wood handicrafts, etc. By doing a onestop shopping, which means you will buy quite a lot, it is easier for you to get a bigger discount. 3. Try not to be not so apparent that you really want the thing you are looking at on a shop; the vendors are not stupid and can smell your desire, thus will take the advantage by putting the price high.
BEFORE ENTERING A TEMPLE, PLEASE REMIND YOURSELF: 1.To respect the place and its people: it is sacred, so do not make noise or damages and act normal. 2.That a woman who is having her period, is not allowed to enter the temple. 3. To not walk in front of a praying person.

THE MAG Bali Information
Ubud

Ujung Water Palace
1
Uluwatu
Ubud is largely known as a remarkable center of fine arts, dance and music. The spectacular view of green paddy terraces makes Ubud as one of the most visited areas in Bali.
Located 1km out of Lovina town, Sing Sing Waterfall is the perfect place for people who wish to see a waterfall and do not want to deviate far from the main food.
Singaraja was once the capital city of bali before Denpasar. It was Bali's main port during the Dutch occupation and still retains colonial feel, especially with its clean, quiet and distinctve culture.
16
Taman Ujung or also known as the Ujung Water Palace was built in 1919 by the late King of Karangasem, I Gusti Bagus Jelantik, to welcome and serve important guests and Kings from other countries.
Uluwatu is known for its breathtaking cliff views, with its spectacular temple overlooking the clear blue water of the ocean below. Plenty of monkeys inhibit the area. Kecak dance is also regularly performed in Uluwaatu's amphitheatre.
Uluwatu - Kecak Dance
4. Since there are ranges of shops offering pretty much the same things, you can always walk away from one shop to another if a deal cannot be reached. But walk slowly. Normally, if you offer a reasonable price on a bargain, in which the vendor can still make some profits and the price is good for you, the vendor would call you back to his/her shop as you walk away. 5. Tell the vendor that if he/she gives you a good price, than you will tell your other friends to shop from him/her. 6. Know the martket prices, or, pretend you do. By saying “I’ve seen this product before much cheaper” will probably lead to a cheaper price. 7. Have fun and stay friendly. Bargaining is part of the culture and it should be a fun activity.
4. That a priest is very important, so whenever he is praying, don’t sit higher then him and don’t bother him with your flash from your camera. 5. That you should also not take flashing pictures of other people praying. 6. To wear a sarong and a ribbon when you attend a ceremony (those are often provided to you when necessary).
Medewi
B
Balian
Balian gets some swells and is a quiet place in North Bali. Its location that is close to the main road makes surfers can easily access this place.
Canggu & Pererenan
C
Canggu and Pererenan are places that most surfers will know about, with their largerthan-Kuta swells, sandy beach and not much else. Canggu is however becoming better known in tourist and expat circles. D
Kuta Reef
E
Belangan
F
Dreamland
Kuta Reef is an exposed reef break that is often working. May–October (dry season) is the best time of year for waves here. The reef in Belangan is close to shore and a short paddle out. Belangan is a very wellknown break and can get very crowded in the peak season. Dreamland is famous for its waves that can peel perfectly for hundreds of meters over the reef. The waves are also reserved for expert surfers only. Swimming here is advisable only on low tide. G
Bingin
Bingin gets very crowded through the peak season with only one small take-off area. The wave itself is pretty mechanical, but short.
H
Lebih
I
Impossibles
The surf break in Lebih is greatly affected by direction of the swell. Impossibles is the least crowded surfing area in Bali. It is located between Bingin and Padang Padang, so if you are at either of those two places you can see what is happening at Impossibles. J
Padang Padang
Padang Padang only starts to work when a big swell is running. It is of an easy paddle out through the channel. K Uluwatu There are 4 different sections at Uluwatu:
Temples which is a long and hollow wave that works on the mid to high tide, The peak right in front of the warungs in line with the cave also best on high tide, Racetrack which is a super-fast with a barrel that works on the low tide, but gets seriously shallow, and Outside Corner which is considered by many to be one of the best waves anywhere in the world. The corner won't even start to break unless the swell is at least in the 8' range. L
Nyang Nyang
Nyang Nyang beach is known as one of the great spot to surf in Bali. Hiding from the crowd of people plus huge wave makes this beach like a secret paradise for every surfers. M
N
Nusa Dua
O
Sri Lanka
P
Sanur Reef
Q
Padang Galak
R
Ketewel
S
Padangbai
To get to this reef you have to drive into the town itself and then weave your way south, there are also a couple of other good waves in this area. So it pays to do a bit of exploring. Northern part of Nusa Dua is Sri Lanka, a bowly right which breaks into a deep water channel. Sanur Reef is a sheltered reef break that only works once in a while. November–April (wet season) provides optimum time of year for the waves. Padang Galak is a reliable rivermouth beach break north of Sanur. The surf break is quite popular here, but only works under certain conditions. The surfing crowd at Ketewel usually consists of locals and Japanese, including girls on body boards. Ketewel seemed like a place beginners/ intermediates might enjoy, not people looking for epic surfing. Padangbai has the flat bottomed mixed reef and sandy bottom with some walls.
Green Bali
Green Bali is situated at the bottom of a cliff. No worries going down but after you have been surfing for a couple of hours the return leg is a bit harder.
FACTS ABOUT BALI Bali is one of the tens of thousands islands in the Indonesian archipelago that lies between the country’s most populated island, Java, and Lombok. It is also one of the country’s most developed provinces with the capital in Denpasar, located on the southern part of the island. Bali is divided into 8 regencies (Badung, Bangli, Buleleng, Gianyar, Jembrana, Karangasem, Klungkung and Tabanan) and 1 city (Denpasar). Unlike most of the Muslim-majority Indonesia, around 94% out of Bali’s 3 million population adhere to Balinese Hinduism, which is a combination of the existing local beliefs and Hindu influences. As the main tourist destination in Indonesia, Bali is renowned for its highly developed arts, including music, dance, sculpture, painting, metalworking and leather. The island is also the home of wildlife such as hundreds of bird species (including the endangered Bali Starling), Indian Muntjac, Mouse-deer, Leopard Cat, Black Giant Squirrel, and several species of macaque and leaf monkey.
The island’s countless natural irresistible charms have awarded Bali as one of the world’s most visited holiday destination. With its tropical climate (temperatures averaging 31 degrees Celsius, 88 fahrenheit), Bali is warm all year round – which is perfect to explore its smoking volcanoes, stepped rice fields, remote beaches, towering cliffs, famous surf breaks and the majestic thousand- yearold temples. The hospitable and friendly natives of the Balinese and their way of life are by many considered as a magnet, inspiring those who have been in the island to go back again and those who have not to come.
