Murni:

A Very Personal Guide to Ubud Murni was b o r n i n Penestanan near Ubud. She grew up mostly in Ubud’s market where her mother was one of the l e a d i n g sellers. Except for ten years in Sanur where she ran four shops, and trips abroad, Murni has lived in Ubud all her life. She is a wellknown business woman, having started Ubud’s first real restaurant, Murni’s Warung, the first antiques gallery which is now Murni’s Warung Shop, and established two accommodations for travellers, Murni’s Houses in 1982 and Murni’s Villas in 1999. In 2011, Murni published her own 120-page illustrated guidebook on Ubud. What inspired you to write a guidebook to Bali? Well, two things really. First, I noticed that most guidebooks were written by outsiders, usually English or American, who rushed around for several weeks. They couldn’t possibly have eaten and stayed in all the places and done all the things they wrote about. Once written, the entries are often set in stone and some of their evaluations don’t change for years. Second, printed guidebooks are out of date before the ink is dry. Now that ebooks are possible, I thought an eguide would be the best way of keeping the info fresh. It’s also easy to carry around. Is this the first book you’ve ever published? I’ve co-authored Secrets of Bali with Jonathan Copeland, published by Orchid Press in 2010. It’s in its second print run and will be an ebook soon. That book is not a guidebook but a more wide-ranging and objective analysis of Balinese culture. What’s so unique about Ubud that it deserves a guidebook written about it? Ubud has always attracted special people. For years it’s been a magnet for local, national and foreign artists. New art galleries are opening all the time. Musicologists learn gamelan music. Anthropologists study Balinese culture. Writers write books. Elaborate temple ceremonies and dance performances of the highest caliber are performed nightly. It’s the yoga capital of the world. There are more spas than you can count. Chefs and cooks tirelessly invent new dishes in over 250 restaurants. Great walks can be had down any side street. I don’t think that there’s any place quite like it. Are there other guides also available to Ubud? When I wrote Murni’s Very Personal Guide to Ubud there were no other eguides dedicated just to Ubud, then an

ebook suddenly appeared. I bought it and was appalled to see that the “author” had merely copied Wikipedia lock, stock and barrel, and was selling it. I can confidently say that my guide is the only one written by a local person who lives in Ubud and is out there on a daily basis effectively monitoring changes in information. What unique perspective does your eguide have? It’s very subjective, very personal, hence the name of the book. In a way I’ve been researching this guidebook all my life. I tell readers what I actually like myself, businesses I like to patronize, even art galleries and charities that I like to support. I travel quite a bit myself, so I also offer advice on how to prepare for a trip, what type of visa to get, passport and driving license requirements. I’ve used several excellent travel agents in the UK and USA and give their contact details. What was the most difficult aspect of writing and publishing the guide? Though the writing isn’t so difficult once you focus on what you want to say, the actual publishing of an ebook is fraught with problems. You really need help with the formatting. The book has to be capable of being downloaded quickly and being read in a number of devices: Kindles, iPads, iPhones, Blackberrys, Androids, PCs and Macs. I was lucky to find a wonderful expert in Bangkok. Then there’s the problem of marketing it, the most difficult aspect of publishing an ebook. One advantage is that you can more or less set the price yourself (although Amazon can change it from region to region). I set it really low at US$2.99 as I wanted it to be affordable for everyone. Nearly all our guests at my accommodations download it, so I’ve sold quite a lot already. For a while it was actually the best selling guidebook on Amazon!

C/Ns/I-07 Mar. 12

Why haven’t you included a selection of accommodations and restaurants in your guidebook? I thought about this a lot. The main reason was that I live in Ubud, so of course I stay in one of my own places. I’ve never stayed in a hotel in Ubud and couldn’t therefore do justice to the accommodation side of my coverage. I do eat in restaurants and thought long about that, but being a local, my friends who weren’t mentioned would probably be very upset if I didn’t mention them. There’s also the point that, in reality, places change very rapidly. A visitor’s experience can vary from day to day and even from morning shift to evening shift, so I decided to leave that minefield well and truly alone.

C/Ns/G-02 May 12

Is Ubud changing? I’m seeing a new trend emerging. It used to be a place for a day trip from Kuta, Sanur or Nusa Dua. That has changed and people have started overnighting for two or three days. Then people discovered that the weather in Ubud is milder than on the coast and it’s a great place to base yourself as it’s so central. There’s so much to do that two or three days isn’t enough. In the book I give details of a number of arts and crafts courses and people need time for that. The art galleries and cultural sites also take time to appreciate fully. Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of requests for long-term stays, sometimes as long as six months. How may readers find out more about your guidebook? It’s on my web site www.murnis.com. The eguide can also be accessed from Amazon, iTunes, iBooks, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, Sony and Kobo.

This column is non-advertorial and written by an expat who has lived in Indonesia for nearly 20 years. The island has changed during this time, as has the whole world, but there are some places, things, people or events that remain as good as anyone can remember, for various reasons, or, recently opened places, arrived people or new organisations that are worth a mention. Listed below are those for this edition, in no particular order, as the island is a vibrant place that moves progressively with many wonderful things on offer. Bali has come a long way and My Favourite Things explores what remains interesting for us all to experience.

CUBANA BAR & GRILL

I love this funky little restaurant, bar and grill – as do many others it seems - as the place is always packed to the rafters, teeming with life and bons vivants who take to the dance floor to twirl the night away. It has only been open since the start of the year, but has already found its place in where to go and what to do in the Petitenget area, now also having opened its brightly colourd doors for lunch. Cubana Bar & Grill features a vibrant pre-Castro decadent retro theme of the 1930’s-1950’s offering a Cuban Bar, grill restaurant, and cigar bar concept with a racy live Latin entertainment program. The property stands out like a jewel, with its colourful, colonial style façade, arched windows framed with painted shutters, tall palm trees and running light signage of the 50’s. The air conditioned interior features colonial columns and arches with bright Cuban floor tiles, chandeliers, tobacco leaf fans, and walls full of classic retro posters which convey the party spirit of the era. The outside courtyard is al fresco in a tropical garden setting with its warm surrounding timberwork, comfortable sofas, and table and chairs covered by sky blue umbrellas. It is a popular alternative to the buzzy internal lounge and dining area. The cocktails at Cubana are outstanding. Each cocktail is served artistically in its own characteristic glassware featuring fresh fruit Mojitos, classic Rum cocktails, Daiquiris, original Caipirinhas, Roskas and Sangrias, all presented with hand carved garnishes. Molecular cocktails are the latest trend in the world’s most avant-garde bars, and Cubana is leading the way in Indonesia. The Cuban Grill menu features grilled steaks, fish fillets, chicken and pulled pork, accompanied by signature salsas, crisp salads and fresh vegetables. Jazzy Latin music mix plays in the background during the day; at night the music pumps up for drinking, dancing and partying - the live entertainment includes Cuban-style bands playing a great mix of music from Cuba, the Caribbean and Latin America including: Cuban Son, Salsa, Cha Cha Cha, Bachata, Boleros, Afro-Cuban, Latin Jazz joined by our unique Cubana Showdancers wearing Mardi Gras and Carnivale inspired fiesta costumes, which is sure to get you on the dance floor! Watch out for the Ladies Nights with complimentary cocktails and other fun offers.

KODY & KO My little daughter is fast approaching her first birthday, and I was beginning to rack my brains as to what would make an original and memorable present for her. Of course, this lovely little island isn’t short of a creative idea or two, but I do like to

add my own flavour to my gifts. Suddenly it came to me when I was wandering the showroom and gallery at Kody & Ko – a beautiful large painting by local Balinese artist Wayan Guin of a girl and two brightly painted pink and red hued birds – perfectly sweet for her to gaze at in her room at this tender age as well as keep with her through her years to come. On closer inspection of the painting I could see that it had been painted on fragments of Indonesian newspaper – a nice touch – to which my own idea to really personalize hit me - to finally use the newspaper that I had been saving for a year from the exact day my daughter was born on Friday 13th May, 2011. The date and info is clearly seen through the paint and makes it just that little bit extra special for her.

NC/Ns/G - 27 July 11

Check out the space at Kody & Ko as Wayan Guin’s art is mighty impressive and I must say extremely reasonable, especially as my piece was commissioned and came in at under Rp. 5,000,000. Wayan’s pieces are worlds away from your classic “local” artists in the way that his primary mediums are western women, “I get inspired with beauty in all its forms and most of the time it is a woman that makes me have a creative reaction”. Acrylic on quality linen canvases are used and women’s faces can be identified as the main muse in almost all of his works. His most popular pieces are painted over old Indonesian newspapers – thus giving an interesting element to each piece (and if you want to personalise it as I chose, he is flexible enough to accommodate). His work shows that he is a wonderful talent; his brush strokes and attention to detail are impeccable. Wayan is the resident artist at Kody & Ko and his works, which are constantly changed, are available to view daily. However there are some other artworks also available, as well as some real fun kitschy pieces such as papier mâché animal busts and Union Jack cushion covers. Kody & Ko Gallery Space. Jl Kayu Cendana C002 (in front of Grocer and Grind) Oberoi Seminyak . Phone +62 (0)361 737 359. Open daily 9am – 7pm.

BUZZ By Monsoon Wanita HARDY OFFSPRING

Coming from such innovative, creative and inspiring parentage as John and Cynthia Hardy it is not terribly surprising to find Elora Hardy makin’ her moves to change the world too. Elora recently gave a talk on INK (in association with TED) about her role as a designer using the sustainable resource of bamboo. Her company Ibuku’s most defining work so far is the divinely designed Green School, and their current project Green Village. POTTY C/Ns/I-22 Feb 12

THE GREENEST OF THEM ALL

A truly wonderful and deserving congratulations to Green School for receiving the 2012 Greenest School on Earth Award! It’s a big ol’ place the earth…so spectacular (though hardly surprising) news! The award was presented to the school by the director, Rachel Gutter, of the Centre for Green Schools at the US Green Building Council. FURRY WORDS

Got a damp shady corner at your place? I’m betting you do. So leave a message of love, or a rant on life in living moss. It needn’t be limited to walls: moss being a tough resistant plant, a living green message or pattern could also decorate a footpath. Oh the whimsy! Ok so here’s how. Get yourself some clumps of moss from an established patch and crumble it into a blender, add a bottle of beer and ½ teaspoon of sugar. Blend just enough to make a smoothie. Then paint the mossy liquid onto your damp shady surface, either freehand or with a stencil. Water occasionally over the next few months. Voila!

I’ll admit this is a genuinely weird conservational concept with highly unethical aspects. But apparently it is a genuine tradition in Uzbekistan. So basically what you see here is a small child strapped into a horizontal potty of sorts, with a hole for number poos, and a gender adaptable tube that drains into a container for number ones. Sure no disposable diaper issues, no water waste and detergents from washing but when does the kiddy get let out of that contraption? And honestly how does pooping lying down work? HACK LIFE My new favourite Facebook blog is Mark and Angel Hack Life. Maybe it is not exactly environmental but it is absolutely inspirational. Receive lovely little reminders on how to remain inspired, centered, loving, truthful, and goal driven. Essential on our little island that is an eclectic mix of hedonism, commercialism and alcoholism! “What really matters in life is not what we buy, but what we build; not what we have, but what we share with the world; not our capability but our character; and not our success but our true significance. Live a life that makes you proud - one that matters and makes a difference. Live a life filled with passion and love.”

The Rotary Clubs of Bali and the Bali Red Cross Blood Bank are working together to increase the awareness about the severe shortage of Rh Negative Blood types here in Bali. These are much less prevalent in Asian populations (0.3%) vs. European populations (10%). If you have Rh Negative Blood and would be prepared to help save a life, please contact the Bali Red Cross Blood Bank office today at 0361-227 224 and one of their mobile units will visit you at your home/ office/hotel for your generous donation.

* Please note - the staff is professionally trained to International Standards and always uses new disposable needles. In addition, the Blood Bank is currently expanding its present list of Rh Negative Blood donors. If you are living in Bali and would be willing to have your name placed on a ‘confidential list’ for emergency cases, please call Ibu Metta - 081 855 2299 (English speaking).

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

than in previous generations when most people, like my own parents, left their birth countries because circumstances such as war or dire economic conditions forced them to seek a new life else where. Whereas, in our contemporary world that is characterized by global finances, Internet technology, easy travel, and unprecedented personal freedom permits a mission of this sort to be undertaken by a young black woman. Oyeyemi says she got “the idea that you don’t have to stay in a place just because you were born there, or because you’re used to It.” from her Nigerian parents. She has lived in London, Cambridge, Paris, New York, and Prague and is currently living in Berlin. Her quest for the right city is an intriguing woman- in- search -of - home story that you can read about in the Observer’s Once upon a life column. http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2011/jun/26/ helen-oyeyemi-once-upon-a-life.

Helen Oyeyemi: a writer in search of a city

I will not be surprised if this ‘heroine’s journey’ quest-story becomes the subject of one of her forthcoming novels or perhaps even guides Helen toward trying her hand at a nonfiction book. In fact, I would be eager to read it.

Literature helps us to contextualize and understand our stories as we travel on our own paths. Place has a lot to do with the identities we create for ourselves. We become Brits or Balinese or whatever by living in a culture. We are hearing a lot about the failure of multiculturalism in the news. But there is no returning to the good old days, which we all know were not so good for everyone anyway. The Internet has made it possible for many of us to work from anywhere in the world we may choose to live. This is particularly true for many Westerners residing in Bali as expats.

Helen Oyeyemi will be joining the prestigious selection of multicultural writers at the “This Earth of Mankind” themed Ubud Writers and Readers Festival in October. Many of the invited authors have written books that deal in issues related to home, country, nationality and identity in our contemporary ‘earth of mankind’. The acclaimed twenty-six year old Nigerian born writer who was raised in England and graduated Cambridge has garnered the Somerset Maugham Award in 2010 and was a finalist for the Shirley Jackson Award in 2009. Oyeyemi has published four books (The Icarus Girl in 2005, The Opposite House in 2007, White is for Witching in 2009 and Mr Fox in 2011) as well as two plays (Juniper’s Whitening and Victimese) since her 20th birthday. She started writing her first novel at the age of 17 while studying for her A levels. This sort of precocity has given her a ‘wunderkind’ aura in the international literary world. She says that her story telling gene comes from her Yoruba parents. “In my family telling stories is just a way of life. And there is always the awareness of the world being greater than just humans and there is a huge understory in that.” She must have been a confident child because she rewrote Little Women after reading it for the first time. “I crossed out the parts that upset me parts I didn’t like because they were too sad to bear.” And so when Beth died I rewrote it that she survived. And I thought Joe and Laurie should get married so I had them get married.” What better way to become a writer than to have the moxie to change the fictional world someone else has created even if that someone is Louisa May Alcott. Interestingly, Helen Oyeyemi is woman in quest of a city the way some women are in quest of a man. This kind of search for the right place to call home is becoming more prevalent

Her latest novel, Mr Fox is multi narrator voiced collection of a tales about a murderous novel writer named Mr Fox who is married to Daphne but is possessed by his muse who is tired of him killing off woman after woman in his books. She is not only angered by the horrendous murders of numerous fictional women characters but also about the unsatisfying exploration of relationships of the living. What is Mr St. John Fox, the writer avoiding? This is an interesting twist on the violence against women story that does more than argue morally or legally. His muse cleverly named Mary Foxe refers to the wife who does in Bluebeard in the English version of the French fairy tale. Mary reproaches Mr Fox for not trying to be a better writer. Writing and story making is at the heart of this love story. “It’s not just about Mr. Fox and Mary. It’s also about Mary and Daphne and them both coming to terms with a man they both love. It’s just that one of them happens to be imaginary and the other happens to be real.” Who is creating whom? What do characters do to writers and vise versa?

C/Ns/G-13 July 11

Helen Oyeyemi is a writer who is as interested in the process and meaning of writing as much as she is in plot, structure, character development, and etcetera. The less than linear style of the book and the multiple narrative voices shift the ground under the characters and readers alike. In Mr Fox as well as her other novels the spiritual world and the tangible one blur. When she was queried by NPR’s Audie Cornish, as to why that theme was something she kept coming back to, Helen replied she” had no idea still.” I can’t help wondering how the Sekala/Niskala aspects of Balinese cosmology will affect this searching and talented young woman. Perhaps the city she is questing for is really an international village on an Indonesian island in the Indian Ocean.

by Dr. Rob Chairs ‘N Bones II Group Exhibition of Paintings, Sculptures and Installations. At Tonyraka Art Gallery, Jl. Raya Mas 86, Ubud. Tel: 7816785 Currently, the Tonyraka Art Gallery is holding an exhibition entitled ‘Chairs ‘N Bones II’, which is a continuation of an exhibition on the same conceptual theme held in Jakarta in 2010. The exhibition features paintings, sculptures, and installations by five artists: Samy R.R. Vermeulen, Ipong Purnama Sidhi, Nasirun, Ugo Untoro, and Komroden Haro. Initiated by Vermeulen, the exhibition thematically focuses on critical questions about the future of humanity following destructive human misconduct to nature. In the exhibition, ‘Chairs’ signify human egotistical desires to pursue power and material wealth at the expense of nature. Meanwhile, ‘Bones’ refers to the fatal consequences of nature’s wrath on man: global warming, climate change, and massive ecological disasters. Man is under sentence of death for his crimes against nature, and this exhibition proposes the question “How much time is left for us”? Many answers to this depressing question inspire the works featured in this extremely stimulating exhibition. In the catalogue accompanying the exhibition, art-critic Arif Bagus Prasetyo observes that it is now widely known that we live in a world which is exposed to global warming. Rising temperatures could radically change the face of the earth. Our world would be half uninhabitable. Ice sheets at the North Pole continue to melt, causing seas to rise and submerge many coastal areas and islands. Main-lands around the world could transform into deserts. Drought and water scarcity would become rampant and massive species extinction would hit the world. As Arif notes, a global ecological catastrophe is at hand, and the signs are quite apparent. Arif also explains that the bleak future of the world now presents new approaches for an ethics of living, and provokes new challenges for contemporary artists and artistic practices. Arif finds that many contemporary artists around the world, in the face of climate change, are now participating in the ethicopolitical reinvention of life. These artists attempt to answer questions about what role art might play in an ecological emergency, which could pose a threat to human survival in the near future. Given this state of urgency, many contemporary artworks and artistic practices are attuned to art and ecology, and, Arif feels that the artists and art showcased in the ‘Chairs ‘N Bones II’ exhibition contributes to the focusing of public attention on the environment, and the threats posed by climate change. The five artists involved in ‘Chairs ‘N Bones II’ employ personal and spiritual approaches to the environment. Environmental problems are a political matter, but The Wall the responses of the artists to the problem are personal. The notion of personal liberation informs Ugo Untoro’s work ‘The Wall’. For Ugo “Art is a private space. It’s a space that enables never-ending adventures”. Komroden Haro also states that his sculptures, such as ‘Everyday’, are born out of his personal Everyday liberation of the heart and mind. In his piece

‘Red Rain’, Ipong Purnama Sidhi’s painting techniques combine the aesthetics of art brut with action painting, but he also echoes a similar spirit of personal liberation. Additionally, Samy R.R. Vermeulen and Nasirun both blend personal liberation of imagination Red Rain and spiritual sensibility in order to inspire a new awareness to the threat of climate change. The vision of power and death as seen in the work ‘Empty Throne’ by Vermeulen, and the symbolism of the puppets in the traditional painting ‘Perahuku Samuderaku’ by Nasirun, mark the spiritual sides of the Empty Throne ecological thinking of both artists.

Perahuku Samuderaku (Detail)

Efforts to save the earth require a change in society and our lifestyles. This major exhibition shows that art can make a crucial contribution through its interventions in human consciousness. In an effort to raise environmental awareness, artists and their art can make up the deficiencies of imagination to be found in scientific

data. RetreART Group Exhibition of Paintings. At Gaya Art Space, Jalan Raya Sayan, Ubud. Tel: 979252 The Gaya Art Space has always been dedicated to providing a venue for emerging artists. In their exhibition ‘RetreART’, a group of artists, which includes Martinus Sumbaji, Emanuell Papo, Hanh, Nyoman Suarnata, Widodo Kabutdo, Em Sumba and Yoesoef Olla, show a collection of artworks based on personal meditation. Em Sumba, retreats back to his childhood in his canvas ‘Bermain Segitiga’. He seems to be saying that we cannot avoid the moments in our lives when we miss the time when we could just enjoy ourselves without worrying about any problems. Through his work ‘Get many Fishes’, Emanuell Papo tells us that fishing is also Bermain Segitiga a way to meditate while relaxing. Papo feels that fishing gives us a chance to refresh our minds and spirit, but, getting many fish is not the main aim of the activity, for Papo also thinks that the process of catching fish is much more interesting to paint. Yoesoef Olla imagines himself as a free-spirited lion in ‘One Day as a Lion’, while Nyoman Suarnata, in his work ‘Out of Think’, tries to converse with God by sending his message through a cartoonish airplane. In his amazing pieces Out of Think

like ‘Tak Kuasa Memeluk Gunung’, Widodo Kabutdo uses recycled materials such as ink on waste plastic, which he applies with bamboo brushes. Finally, in his surreal painting ‘Best Way to Escape’, Hanh presents a symbolic horse that may be seen as a vehicle through which one could escape to an alternative realm.

Seeing is Believing Blindness is not God’s Punishment By Skye Laphroaig

John Fawcett has helped conduct 33,000 free cataract operations in Bali, changing many lives forever. But one of his biggest challenges is convincing people that blindness is not God’s punishment.

Walking into the YKI centre, I notice 15 people seated outside a medical unit waiting for their 20-minute cataract operation. The energy of the place is palpable. Fawcett describes his life as, “Good fun, it certainly beats playing golf or bowls!”

Fawcett, an Australian former ceramicist, educationalist and Deputy Director of Perth Technical College, first travelled to Bali in the early 1970’s and was so fascinated by the people and their culture, he saw the need for programmes to help the less fortunate with curable medical problems. John, who has visited Bali since 1974, moved here in 1983 to recover from a life-threatening medical accident, which left him in hospital for nearly three years.

He tells me about a six-year-old girl who was recently brought to the centre by her uncle who held the disheveled, cataract-blinded girl in his arms exclaiming, “She’s not mine!” Fawcett, calm as ever, reassured him with, “Sin ken ken” which means, “No worries.” Within a week, the child could see again and was running around the garden area, enjoying an experience most children take for granted.

Fawcett immediately recognized the great medical need on the island and, with assistance from Rotary Australia and Rotary International, began the humanitarian work that took over his life. First he established a Cleft Lip and Palate Program in 1976, then the Mobile Clinic for Cataract Surgery in 1991 before setting up the John Fawcett Foundation in 2000.

CHEATING DEATH John Fawcett’s life has not been without its own misfortune. In 1979, he fell down some concrete steps, cracking vertebrae. To alleviate the pain an epidural was administered and things started going very wrong. According to John, “It was like someone had got hold of the dimmer switch and turned the lights down, it got to the point where there was no recorded blood pressure and technically I died twice that day.”

operations to restore sight. CHILDREN’S CATARACT SURGERY The foundation’s success since the beginning of its involvement in Indonesia has been dependent on the work of a large number of very dedicated volunteers who freely give their time. These include logistics people in Australia who organise medical equipment and supplies, medical personnel who come to Bali and teach local doctors and medical staff new surgical techniques, those who help to raise funds, and numerous others.

Returning to life was a spiritual experience for Fawcett and he describes the two years and 10 months he spent in hospital as “One of the greatest experiences of my life because it has given me a powerful insight into other peoples problems.” John recalls a famous quote from Gandhi to explain his insight “Never judge a man until you have walked a mile in their shoes”.

BECAUSE ‘GOD MADE THEM BLIND’ In Bali, eyes have a special importance and feature hugely in religion, and also in Topeng, a dramatic form of Indonesian dance in which masks are worn. Fawcett, who chose two masks to represent the foundation as a logo, explains: “The Balinese have their own eye language (Bahasa Mata) and can communicate with their eyes. In the early days nobody foresaw the difficulties in committing people to an operation and we thought once cataract operations were given away, a continuous and endless queue would appear. Karma power is a belief that your affliction in this life is payment for something you’ve done wrong in a previous life, resulting in your karmaphala or destiny. You tell them it’s a cataract and fixable for free, but they say we can’t do it - because God made us blind.” Documentary maker Richard Todd became interested in Johns quest to convince a nation that blindness is not God’s punishment and produced an award-winning film entitled ‘God Made Them Blind’. One of the keystones in the documentary is an otherwise loving father who believed the children’s fate was karma, an immutable force, which cannot be interfered with. In the film, his daughter, Ketut finally has her sight restored after a 13-year debate with her family on karma versus her right to sight. Fawcett says: “We found two sisters who had married and one had 10 children the other had 12 and all of the children went blind at seven due to a genetic cause. It was a long and painful experience to persuade the father to agree to have all the children operated, but it’s worth all this trouble to change someone’s life.” John convinced the father by bringing God into the picture and suggesting if they operate, God will decide their fate. Now Ketut has a stall at the local market and sells her own produce. She feels God gave her a chance for a better life. ABOUT THE FOUNDATION The John Fawcett Foundation is an Australian-registered incorporated organisation, which works in Indonesia under the auspices of its action arm there, the Yayasan Kemanusiaan Indonesia (YKI). The programs target people who are economically disadvantaged and all services are provided free of charge. The foundation is best known for its Sight Restoration and Blindness Prevention Project, incorporating the Mobile Eye Clinic for Cataract Surgery. There are more than four million blind people in Indonesia, and more than three million of these are cataract blind, a condition which is curable in most cases. However for most Indonesians the cost of a cataract operation is far beyond their financial capacity and they remain blind throughout their lives, a burden on their families and communities. There are 30,000 people on the island of Bali who cannot afford their cataract operation and are resigned to blindness. The progress so far in Indonesia shows that inexpensive cataract operations can add years of productive life for millions of adults, boosting family incomes.

Down to the last fibers of his life in 1984, John’s memory gradually began to return and he moved to Bali where many suffer from eye problems. Luckily Fawcett had already developed a very close relationship with Ida Bagus Mantra who was Governor of Bali during this time and Indonesian Ambassador for India. John went to India with the Governor and was inspired by their progressive Eye Camps and Mobile Clinics. “The whole idea of doing microsurgery in a bus was ridiculous and yet, that was attractive to me. Says Fawcett: “If someone says you can’t do it, it’s impossible, all of a sudden, I get interested!” FAMILY BURDEN Derived from the Greek term for “white water falling,” cataract is a degenerative eye condition akin to watching the world through a waterfall. The lens becomes so cloudy that it can no longer focus light on the retina. As the primary cause of blindness worldwide, cataracts can be treated with a relatively simple, costeffective operation. Experience shows that this quick surgical procedure can be profoundly liberating, not only for those whose sight is restored, but also for caretakers transformed into breadwinners. That’s quite a bargain, considering the operation costs as little as $60. According to John, cataracts are caused by ‘the six Ds’: Dad and Mum (genetics), Daylight (ultraviolet rays), Diet, Diabetes, Dehydration and Damage (trauma). In the developing world, a blind person is most often found living in rural areas. The family member who becomes blind changes from being a solid contributor to a family burden. There’s a vicious cycle between poverty and blindness and 90 per cent of people in developing countries are unable to work and need two people to care for them. The result is three people who are not productive and this amounts to a staggering $168 billion dollars in lost income worldwide during one year. When clinics are established, the poor cannot afford the treatment on offer. The answer is free cataract surgery for the masses, with an affordable technology that can be provided in isolated areas. MOBILE EYE CLINIC TAKES TO THE SKIES “The most important thing to remember about blindness is people are frightened to travel anywhere, especially people in remote, mountainous villages, what we can do, is take the service to them” says Fawcett. In 1991, the foundation’s original mobile clinic came to Bali from Perth, Australia, by Hercules helicopter courtesy of the Australian Air Force. 20 years on, the next generation of mobile eye clinics return to the skies, this time to reach people in more remote locations with the help of the Indonesian Air Force. In a mass eye screening the foundation’s team can check visual acuity in about 1,500 people, issuing free glasses and identifying hundreds of people blind with cataract and operating on the same day in the mobile clinic.

The John Fawcett Foundation has operated on over 300 children, restoring their sight and giving them the opportunity of a normal life. Two-year-old Augustini was born blind and sits cradled in her mother’s arms after an operation to restore sight to both eyes. With the bandages removed an ophthalmologist uses his instrument to shine light into the eyes; she flinches - a good sign - then turns away, having grabbed the device in her hands. This is big! A little scared and puzzled, Augustini looks up and sees her mother for the very first time. CLEFT OPERATIONS The John Fawcett Foundation is committed to more than sight restoration. Other projects include Prosthetic Eyes, Education Assistance, Assistance to Desperately Ill Children and Young People, and Children’s Corrective Surgery. While surgeons volunteer their skills and time, there is a base cost of approximately $450 per operation for consumables, support staff and theatre hire. The 29 operations just completed were made possible by generous private donations. A baby’s face and skull form during the first two months in the womb. Normally, the tissues that make up the lip and palate fuse together. But in babies with cleft lip or cleft palate, the fusion never takes place or occurs only partially, leaving an opening (or cleft). Researchers believe that most clefts are caused by an interaction of genetic and environmental factors. In many babies, a definite cause isn’t discovered. John has been following the work of Fiona Stanley, AC who is an Australian epidemiologist noted for her research into maternal health, and birth disorders. Studies suggest there may be a link to malnutrition, especially a diet lacking in foliates (present in green leaves) and a lack of nutrients due to highly polished white rice. He said: “We became aware of a young couple who had produced a cleft lipped baby and overcome with such shame that they moved away from their village. The family contacted them after learning about the foundation and it was suggested they come to the clinic. On the day they turned up, they were shocked to find 44 similar babies awaiting surgery.” SUPPORT The John Fawcett Foundation is able to provide medical and other humanitarian assistance to needy people and its success has been dependent on the work of a large number of dedicated volunteers who freely give their time. Bali Eye is very conscious of minimizing their operating costs so as to get the best possible value from their donations and directly help those in need. During 2012 at 80 years of age, Fawcett hopes to reach cataract blind babies before they are two years of age, thus giving them the best possible chance of seeing again. Without your financial contributions they cannot do this life-changing work. Thanks to the generous support of donors, many poor families can now pay the school fees to enable their children to attend school, because $100 will support a child (years 1-6) for one year at Primary school. http://www.balieye.org

During a recent visit to Sumbawa, the mobile unit performed a magnificent task. Over 10 days the team screened 2,231 patients, issued 1,508 pairs of glasses, treated 577 patients with eye infections, indentified 82 cataract blind adults and performed 34

Taurus is a very matter of fact and to the point sign and from the 9th on, conversations will tend to go this way. Full Moon is on the 6th at 16 Scorpio. Remember that the next cycle starting on the 21st marks a pair of Eclipses in Gemini and Sagittarius and on the last day of this fortnight Venus moves into retrograde. This retrograde motion lasts for 6 weeks and includes the rare Venus eclipse on the 6th June at 16 Gemini. We are heading into a very potent time indeed and with that it’s probably a good time to bask in the lushness of the Taurus cycle while it remains. Full Moon promises to be transformative although Jupiter Taurus close to the Sun will bring a dose of good fortune and the willingness to change, even if letting go is a little painful. The stage is being set for the first of the 7 hits of Uranus square Pluto at the end of June. It’s been rather a long preparation however as October 2008 marked the beginning of this transformation cycle of radical change. You may wish to cast your mind back to where you were and what you were doing at that time. It will give you some clues as the nature of your personal involvement in these revolutionary changes. FULL MOON 16 Scorpio 01 May 06, 2012 11:36 a.m. ARIES Mars is opposite Chiron and brings healing into your life. The Virgo/Pisces polarity is all about service; to you and to others. Although you have a tendency to think of yourself and your own personal needs this marks a time of a new way of looking at the world and what this service really means. The Pisces tendency is to self-sacrifice and the Virgo’s is to overdo it. Finding the balance and healing those aspects of yourself that have missed out on nurture is the key to harmonizing this fortnight. Forgiveness will go a long way in doing this. A month then to give and receive Love.

LIBRA Issues of love are paramount to your existence and this marks the beginning of an extremely deep inquiry into the nature of love. You will be seeking out information from all sources on relating and experiencing love and experimenting in life and perhaps seeking the guidance of teachers. It appears to be a very mental approach to what is a deeply feeling issue. There are many paths as the old saying goes and maybe when the mind is exhausted the inner wisdom teacher will appear and you can experience Love as it explodes into all of your senses. Something to look forward to.

TAURUS All this attention on Venus and she is your planetary ruler, means that you and your love-life will be in the limelight over the coming weeks. Gemini is a fickle sign and craves change and lends to boredom very quickly. You may be in a period of your life where you or your partner is experimenting with different expressions of relationship. Communication is another major key factor here. Keeping the channels open will make this transition easier for everyone concerned. This is your birthday month after all and you are up for a good time. Enjoy the Full Moon and be careful to not overdo things.

SCORPIO Mercury Mars and Pluto your ruler create a wonderful earthy trine at the end of the fortnight. Grounding is the key word here and it is through your tactile senses that you will receive much input. Getting close to another is always a fun thing. It will be much more than sexual; it will be sensual and deeply caring. You will want to reciprocate all the tenderness you receive and for many this will be the beginning of a brand new love affair where you will learn much about yourself and of course the other. Full Moon in your sign could mark the beginning of this exploration of the senses.

GEMINI The second half of this fortnight brings some solidity to those great inspirations that you received during the end of April. Things will seamlessly fall into place now and you will have the energy and clarity of thought to complete your tasks. So much is happening in your sign over the coming weeks that any potential for harmony needs to be harnessed. Seize this current window of opportunity and use it to place yourself in the most supportive of environments. June promises to be a month that will pull heavily on your ability to adapt to rapidly changing situations. Learn to flow with the synchronic order.

SAGITTARIUS Jupiter meets the Sun in Taurus this fortnight and sheds light on your material status and possibly some good fortune in your love-life. The sense of touch is a part of the magnificence of being human. Although you can get caught up in your far fetched endeavors, a little bit of hug therapy is high on your list of to dos. Close and personal can throw out all of your running impulses. So if you should feel the need to slow down for a moment and get prone, do your best to not resist the urge. On a more serious note, a continuing and amazing time for expansions of the mind. Allow it to be blown.

CANCER Like the ocean you will be feeling

CAPRICORN So much is always happening for you these days and on so many levels. A great time to land and get grounded for as I’ve often mentioned the first of this long haul of Pluto in Capricorn squares to Uranus occurs in the end of June. Settle then this month your affairs and create a platform for the days to come. You can harness the awesome potential of these times by being willing to adopt new methods and by also discarding the old when its time to let them go. This may be relationships, ideas, operating systems and any number of other aspects of your life. Flow with the changes.

the pull of the Moon’s magnetic field on your emotions. The Full Moon in Scorpio, a fellow water sign, brings depth and perhaps the call to isolation. It is in these quiet moments that you can see your way clear to make the necessary adjustments to your life. The Eclipse energy will pull heavily in favor of movement and communication. Travel is on the agenda for many of you and for some it will come as a sudden surprise that brings benefits and hidden gifts. The call to Love is strong and whatever has cast a cloud over its brilliance will be dissolved. LEO This is not the most comfortable of months for you. The Taurus/Scorpio polarity pulls you out of your usual joyous self and asks you to expand upon it even more by ditching some of your worn patterns of behavior. Ultimately nothing is lost in these darker sojourns of the soul and much is gained in the evolution of your authentic self. So the news then is all good, although the feelings may momentarily be uncomfortable. The Sun/Venus eclipse brings potent healing energy especially for you. Be brave. VIRGO Mars in Virgo trines Pluto and opposes Chiron during this month and brings transformation and healing. Energetically you will be feeling on top of things and if you harness this energy wisely you will propel yourself into a more expanded version of yourself. The key word is wisdom. Rather than rely on reason and logic alone, dive deeply into the inner knowingness and seek your answers and guidance there. Too much procrastination and weighing up of situations will only lead to exerting your personal will in places it hasn’t been asked for. Chiron is fine tuning your sensitivities.

AQUARIUS Uranus is readying itself to move into new degrees of Aries, all in preparation for its meeting with Pluto in late June. Here’s the thing, because of its unpredictable nature (your planetary ruler) you don’t know what you’re in for. All you know is that change is imminent and powerful. It will usher in radical responses both in your personal life and on the collective. You will have to let go of old patterns abruptly and perhaps also things of a material nature. What you do know, is that it’s time and it’s exciting and that you are happy to be alive and a part of all of this. You are a key player. PISCES The sweetness of Neptune in Pisces (your ruler in it’s sign) is showering you with an ability to forgive and use your gifts of empathy and intuition to assist others. People are more receptive than ever before to things of a spiritual and other-worldly nature. This then has life flowing for you a little more effortlessly and with the Chiron and Mars opposition you are experiencing deep and lasting healing. As old layers of trauma leave your cells the light penetrates more easily and you feel literally lighter. Allow your true nature to shine through then and leave the doubts and fears behind you.

HECTOR’S Building for No Future Among the many wondrous things that fix one’s attention in Bali is the question of building permits. It has been raised – again – as a matter of public interest by people who are objecting to the construction of yet another lodging place, allegedly without benefit of permit, in Jl Drupadi at Seminyak, which not many years ago was a quietly meandering little street where residents had rice fields to gaze upon. It is still a meandering little street, but concrete view-blockers have replaced the rice fields and silence is a notional, relative thing. This, of course, is progress. It is not necessary to completely oppose development to be outraged by the cavalier attitude of many developers to dangerous impediments to their own wealth-garnering, such as building regulations. “I should get a permit? Well, I asked for one and you said no, so I’m building my nightmare project anyway. I’ve called it Excrescence, by the way; somehow it seemed apt.” This statement is of course fictional. The actual statement, were one ever to be made, would probably be unprintable. We have hotel developers – and other entrepreneurial types – who build what they like, where they like and how they like without bothering with building standards, licences, permits, or even drainage plans. (We know too that getting building permits is often a process fraught with costly problems but that’s not the point.) Few are effectively countered. It’s not just in Bali, of course. Indonesian law insists (well, suggests is more accurate in actuality) that you consult your neighbours before building, but hardly anyone ever bothers with that nonsense either. If Bali is to escape eventual tourism ruin and have any chance of protecting its heritage, architectural and other, something needs to be done urgently. Reform could start with amendments to the devolution law so there is no longer room for argument over whether the provincial or district administrations have legislative power over building regulations. It could usefully then continue with cast-iron rules enforcing those regulations. Bali has benefited hugely from tourism and related developments since the mid-1980s. Thousands of people have jobs they once could only dream about. Money has flowed – and is flowing – to local people like never before. All that is good, yet we face a dreadful problem, one that relates to virtually unfettered development and to the Balinese (and national) habit of ignoring both regulations and common sense.

And a Further Thought Here in Bali we have by-passes that aren’t anything of the sort – because the instant someone builds a traffic thoroughfare it is built out and traffic-jammed by an epidemic of retail and other premises. We have intersections choked by vehicles and motorbikes whose drivers and riders simply ignore the rules. We have traffic police who sit – for example in the little sponsored box at the McDonald’s lights at Jimbaran – sipping their coffees and Cokes and ignoring the tailbacks caused by people intending to turn right but sitting in the left-hand (through) lane because they’re so selfish or ignorant that they’re not prepared to queue. No “tourists” (even those who’ve lived here for years) do that. It’s home-grown idiocy and if it were penalised at all it would only be at concessional local rates.

In the Pink Last October your Diarist – along with a chum who was visiting from Queensland, Australia – donned pretty pink to take part in the annual Bali Pink Ribbon Walk. It was a fun show, once the masculine genes had got over being paired with pink, and in a very good cause. We even did the full five kilometres, something that was apparently beyond many of the other walkers who, without benefit of marshals, cut a few corners. The 2012 event is on May 26, retimed to take advantage of the less humid conditions and slightly lower temperatures of the season. Sadly, we can’t make it; we’ll be flying back from an overseas trip on the day and won’t be back on Bali soil until after walk time. But everyone else should, so put it in your diaries. Gaye Warren, who initiated the Walk in 2009 and who as a breast cancer survivor is a leading light in the UK events, tells us that this year they’re providing optional design pink tees for chaps, with a black collar and the chest-legend “Real Men Wear Pink.” Nice try girls; only on special occasions, we fancy. The Walk starts at 4.30pm on May 26, from the grounds of the BTDC headquarters at Nusa Dua with registration from 3pm. There will be the usual tasty morsels available from international food stalls and this year’s entertainment programme is being provided by a wedding planner. That’ll go without a hitch, surely? Funds raised this year are going towards the building of Bali’s first Breast Cancer Support Centre in Denpasar. Bali Pink Ribbon works with leading hospital Prima Medika in a joint endeavour to

identify breast cancer in Balinese women who otherwise might not notice the symptoms until the disease is far advanced. Around 200 women a year are diagnosed with breast cancer in Bali. Details are at www.balipinkribbon.com.

Conrad Calling There was a lovely soiree at Tanjung Benoa on April 11 when the Conrad Bali turned eight, said cheerio to inaugural GM Michael Burchett and bonjour to new GM Jean-Sébastien Kling, a native of France who joins us here on our island from the Hilton Maldives Iru Fushi. Kling joined the Hilton group in 1996. We’re not losing Burchett, though, which is good news because he’s a good bloke. He’s staying in Bali to run his own consultancy business.

Non! Cela ne peut pas être vrai! No! That can’t be right! A poll conducted by international travel search site is said to have revealed the French as the rudest people on earth. Apparently they were thus rated by 19 percent of those polled. It’s true that the French are historically known by their European neighbours for an abrupt and curt nature, especially when dealing with foreign tourists – those who don’t speak classic French, for example, such as Quebecois from Canada, or (even worse) don’t speak French at all. It is further alleged that this is often taken by visitors as rudeness. Paris is a difficult city. But the people there are nearly in Seine, so that’s no surprise. In other parts of France your diarist, among thousands or more likely millions of visitors, Francophone or otherwise, has experienced no trouble at all getting along with the locals.

Scratch Him Here’s a thought for the graspers among us, courtesy of Villa Kitty Ubud founder Elizabeth Grant Suttie. She recently asked (on Facebook) this reasonable question: “How can an expat living in Ubud in a comfortable home with his own graphics business think to bring in three tiny kittens and not offer a donation?” We’d say the answer is obvious.

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

That’s the Spirit It was Anzac Day on April 25 – the Australian and New Zealand day to honour all those who have served their countries in the armed forces – and as usual there was a traditional Dawn Service organised by the Australian Consulate-General. The Diary was there (as always); and this year was wearing his Australian Army tie for the occasion. It rained, rather heavily. But as Consul-General Brett Farmer reminded the large crowd present, given the occasion marks the bloody Gallipoli landing in World War I, we could put up with a little inconvenience.

Smile, Genius The Diary’s current MFA (Most Favoured Argentine) Leticia Balacek, architect and artist – she had a lovely ink-wash sketch called Yellow Dog in her exhibition at El Kabron at Bingin Beach late last year which the Diary would covet for a wall were space available – has been spreading her wings. She had an exhibition of 47 mix-media works, Crossing Borders, at the Cemara 6 gallery in Jakarta from March 28-April 12. Now, five of her manual colour screen prints are to go on show at the Indonesian Contemporary Art and Design ICAD by Artura, also in Jakarta, from May 5-June 15. Balacek, who has the sort of effervescent personality that makes you want to hug her, will also present a short animation stop motion film. This year’s Design ICAD theme is Genius. Buenos Aires native Balacek tells us it’s about the genius we all have inside. Well, some among us do.

Unrevealing The Bali Times, which has been published weekly since 2005, failed to appear on Friday, April 20. There was no announcement that publication had been suspended, but you expect that here. It is bad news – any descent into a catatonic state preceding death by any newspaper is – but is unsurprising given the difficulties the paper has had, particularly since November 2010 when the editor decamped to Ireland. Revealing the real Bali – the paper’s masthead boast – was probably always going to be a little difficult from as far away as one of the Euro zone’s least effective economies.

Say What? Question: I am a woman who has been friends with an older gentleman for a few years now. He has always been a drinker, but his friends tell me that it has gotten worse since I moved away. I found out that he has hooked up with a woman who drinks as much as he does. This woman has a reputation for “mooching” off people by playing “poor little me.” I am afraid that my friend’s drinking will end up killing him. I have tried to call him, but I get no answer. I think the woman he’s involved with answers the phone and hangs up when she hears my voice. I love him and don’t want to see him get hurt. Should I help him or just walk away? Thanks! Dr. ZZ: It is not always wise to try to revive old acquaintances. Attempting to help this man may be like trying to open a can of worms. You have no control over him, you can’t make him stop drinking, and you can’t make him be in a healthy relationship. This is where his individuality has led him; meddling may not be particularly helpful. Should you decide to go ahead and try to help, you would do well not to even mention the other woman or your concerns that she is a bad influence. That will only put your friend on the defensive -- even more than confronting the alcoholism. Tell him you are worried about him and his excessive drinking, that you care about him, and that he may be damaging his health. If you can do this in person, that would probably be best. Bring him some info on resources for substance abuse where he lives. All you can do is offer help if he wants to take it, and leave the opportunity open for a future friendship if he wants one. Question: I am a single (never married), 49 year old, Indonesian man in Bali who enjoys great personal health thanks to sports (in the past) and meditation practice (in the present). I do not smoke, and I have never drunk alcoholic beverages. I am 168 cm and 70 kg, having athletic posture. Since my Balinese girlfriend left me years ago, it’s been difficult for me to approach women. Mostly, I am busy with my work, and I no longer am interested in looking for local Balinese or Indonesian women. Instead, I prefer meeting with occidental females. Yet, it’s also not easy find single expat woman living in Bali. Besides, I am a bit shy and prefer to have the woman be more progressive. Have you ever received letters from lonely single western ladies looking for a local Indonesian mate? If you have, I would be grateful if you could share with me any information about them. I do not mind if you let them know my email so that they could communicate with me directly. I really wish to know a single woman who is beautiful (inside and outside), healthy (non-smoker), independent,

generous, loving and caring, and patient. Often I feel really lonely. If there is a single woman having the same loneliness as I, how can I meet her? I am open to anyone, and I do not mind even if she is older than my age. Thank you for reading and understanding my personal situation. I look forward to hearing good news from you. Dr. ZZ: As you can probably imagine, you are not alone in your dilemma. More often shy men rather than women write in, asking for introductions. Only once have I received a request like that from an Indonesian woman and, as far as I recall, I have never received such an email from a Western woman. Most expats who travel to Bali find themselves to be “hot commodities” when they arrive. Balinese men in the travel, tourist and transportation industry flaunt over western women for attention, and the women are repeatedly approached by cowboys and gigolos. My best suggestion is to post a personal profile for yourself at a dating website like http://www.eharmony.com. A search for “dating in bali” or “meet women in bali” will also turn up a variety of links to web dating communities such as http:// mingle2.com/online-dating/bali/bali/single-women.

Many people in this day and age are meeting partners via online dating websites. Joining online communities like www.virtualtourist.com and getting to know people who are planning to travel to Bali is another possibility. People often make plans to travel months in advance on these websites and may welcome the friendship of a local Indonesian resident who can act as an unofficial tour guide and give them inside tips in advance (e.g., where to stay, where to see and do, what to wear, how to get from the airport to Seminyak or Ubud, etc, etc.). The keys to attracting a dream partner – and this goes for either gender – are to put yourself in places where you stand to meet people (you can’t collect rain without a rain barrel), and treat yourself the way you would otherwise enjoy treating a beloved. Go places you imagine going with a partner, buy yourself the gifts you would buy your mate, do the things and celebrate the events you would enjoy celebrating with a beloved. The love you show yourself in these endeavors will attract more love unto itself. In the end, when your partner arrives, you will no longer have the pleasure -- indeed the true pleasure -- of doing many of these things by yourself. So enjoy them now while you can. Enjoyment is the highest form of worship. This enjoyment creates the glue, the magnet that will attract another to you. Copyright © 2012 Say What?

Opinions expressed here are those of Gerry Williams and not necessarily those of Bali Advertiser. Gerry Williams attempts to write from a ‘typical’ diner’s perspective and, whilst quality of food is the most important criteria overall, value for money is the real measuring stick.

Affordable water filtering: Tired of buying 19-liter Aqua bottle refills at Rp10-Rp12,000 each? Chakra Widia, Yayasan Tri Hita Karana Bali, Jl Pengosekan 3, Mas near Ubud, tel. 081 338 794 571I, sells a ready-to-install natural charcoal water filter system for only Rp385,000 which includes Rp125,000 for the clay water storage container, Rp45,000 for the inside main filter cylinder, Rp15,000 for the activated carbon, Rp50,000 for the secondary filter piping plus his fee of Rp150,000. Reverse osmosis and UV filtration systems can cost anywhere from Rp3 million to Rp12 million (price depending on many factors). Using an attractive large ochre-colored earthen storage jar with a cylindrical jar within, the system can produce up 27 liters of clean water per day. Choose a sturdy table and level it, then hook up the PVC pipe to a faucet inside your house or in a protected area outside. Once installed and wet, the filter is more fragile and shouldn’t be moved. Take care transporting the unit from Chakra’s farm near Ubud to your home so fittings won’t crack or leak. For loose fittings, mix a little cement with fine sand or use Sikaflex to reseal pipe connections. Once hooked up and before using, run four liters of water twice through the system to flush it. Look upon this filter as a water making factory from which you fill up and then store large Aqua bottles in the same way that you store filled commercial Aqua bottles under your kitchen counters. The only difference is that you are producing clean drinkable water yourself. Bali’s rogue filling stations: Beware of trickery at pom bensin. Not all the island’s stations operate the new digital type pumps; some use pumps that are 25 years old which make it easier to defraud customers manually by increasing the metering speed. Patronize use the bigger stations on main roads (like Jl. Bypass) that have digital pumps, and where CCTV cameras have been installed to keep an eye on attendants so pilfering does not occur. In back country stations, where mischief still persists, get out of your car and watch the fuel filling. Lock the doors. Look out for suspicious signs of tampering like holes or protrusions on the dispenser. The pump glass should be full and the number on display should be set at 0 before filling. Don’t let the nozzle operator pump the handle which mixes air with the gas, running up the metered cash display by as much as 1.5 liters for every 10 liters dispensed. Pay only the amount on the price readout; many attendants round off the amount, not returning the small change that is rightfully yours. The People’s Bank: If you have a big Indonesian extended family, it’s best to have BRI Bank’s “Britama” national account (Rp10,000 per month). BRI is the primary provider of banking services to lower-income households operating through 4600 village banks with 30 million account holders - the largest bank by number of accounts, an astounding two-thirds of Indonesia’s bank customers. Whereas there are BCA branches and ATMs all over Java, they vanish altogether once you get to really remote areas. Governmentowned BRI has branches everywhere - not only in Indonesia’s big cities but in the tiniest villages like Amed, Pupuan, Negara and Gilimanuk and really off places all over the archipelago - even where there’s no electricity! For example, if your wife or husband has to send money to a family member in a small village in Flores, the receiving party would not have to travel great distances to the nearest town or city. To open a savings account you need only Rp250,000, a photocopy of your passport and KITAB visa;

Unsafe web sites

Here are some more (surprising) bad web sites. Geolocation - your smartphone and perhaps other parties know where you are The place: Your smartphone The smartphone market is still in its infancy, really, and so are the threats. One possible concern is the use - or abuse - of geolocation. Although plenty of legitimate uses for location data exist, the potential for inappropriate uses also exists. In one case, a game listed on the Android Market was in reality a client for a spy app. In a less invidious example, a site called pleaserobme.com showed that - for a time - a stream of FourSquare check-ins indicated that a person was away from their home (the site’s goal, mind you, wasn’t to condone theft, but to raise awareness of the issue). Apple recently updated its privacy policy to reflect changes in how it handles location data in iOS 4. The policy now states that “to provide location-based services on Apple products, Apple and our partners and licensees may collect, use and share precise location data”.

For lease !! Internet with hotspot / Wi-Fi Cheap!! Guarantee money back! These machines ready to use & very simple, no need grid antenna, tower, phone cable, etc. Suitable for small office / home office, NetCafe, restaurant, villa, hotel, trading online, ticketing online, etc

Call: 0361 742 5799 / 081 337 400 999 C/CI/I-28 Dec 11

If you have to go there: Be particular about the location-based sites, apps, and services that you use. Services such as Yelp provide good examples of useful location-aware apps. On the other hand, weigh the privacy implications of services like FourSquare or the new Facebook Places feature, and consider how much you feel comfortable divulging. ‘Poisoned’ search engine results that go to malware-carrying websites The place: Search engines Search engine poisoning is the practice of building tainted sites or pages that are designed to rank high in a search on a given topic. For example, according to a recent study by the security firm McAfee, 19 percent of search results for ‘Cameron Diaz and screensavers’ had some sort of malicious payload. Breaking news topics and Facebook are also common search targets for attackers. C/CI/I-07 March 12

If you have to go there: Pick and choose which sites to go to. Don’t just blindly click search results; check each URL first to make sure that it really leads to the site you want. Although any site can be hacked, visiting the Washington Post’s story on a hot news topic, for example, is probably a wiser choice than following a link to a site you’ve never heard of before. Malicious PDFs that try to fool you into installing malware The place: Hacked websites, plus your inbox As Microsoft has become more serious about Windows security over the past few years, would-be attackers have had to find new ways to infect PCs. Attacking flaws in Adobe Acrobat is one of these newer methods. So-called poisoned PDFs are PDF files that have been crafted in such a manner that they trigger bugs in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat; posted on a hijacked website, they may let an attacker commandeer your PC and access your files and personal info. A newer variant takes an otherwise innocent-looking PDF document and inserts malware into it. Adobe Reader may pop up an alert asking if you want to run the malware, but hackers can edit those messages to trick you into opening the file. How serious is this problem? In 2009, attacks using malicious PDFs made up 49 percent of Web-based attacks, according to security firm Symantec. If you have to go there: First, always make sure that you’re running the latest version of Adobe Reader. You can also use a different PDF reader, such as Foxit Reader. This can protect you from attacks on holes in Adobe Reader itself, but it won’t make you immune to all PDF attacks, such as the newer ones that embed malware inside the PDFs. Make sure, also, that you update to Adobe Reader 9.3.3 or later (Reader 8 users should update to version 8.3.3 or later); these updates change the way Adobe Reader handles non-PDF attachments and reduce the risk from such attacks. You can turn off Adobe Reader’s ability to open non-PDF attachments by going to Preferences, clicking Trust Manager, and unchecking Allow opening of non-PDF file attachments with external applications. The next major release of Acrobat and Reader will provide a new ‘protected mode’ against these attacks. Malicious video files using flaws in player software to hijack PCs The place: Video download sites Attackers have been known to exploit flaws in video players such as QuickTime Player and use them to attack PCs. The threats are often ‘malformed’ video files that, like malicious PDFs, trigger bugs in the player software that let the attackers in to spy on you, plant other malware, and more. If you have to go there: Keep your player software up-to-date. Apple and Microsoft periodically release patches for QuickTime and Windows Media Player, respectively. Avoid downloading videos at random. Stick to well-known video sites such as YouTube, or to download services like iTunes. Drive-by downloads that install malware when you visit a site The place: Hacked legitimate sites A drive-by download occurs when a file downloads and/or installs to your PC without you realizing it. Such downloads can happen just about anywhere. Some sites are built to lure people into a drive-by download; but in a common attack method, criminals will hack a web page, often on an otherwise legitimate site, and insert code that will download malware to your computer.

Let me begin by saying that I didn’t set out with any world peace theme in mind for this months column but while the April calendar was brimming with diverse ‘global goings on’, from Easter to Kartini Day, May seems to encompass more earnest observances such as the ones I’ve chosen to share here… V-E Day - May 8, 2012

World War II meant different things for different countries involved and it is on and around this day that many of those participating nations celebrate victory in Europe (VE) or Liberation Day, commemorating that momentous time in history when the Allied forces accepted the surrender of Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich officially capitulated. Many factors contributed to the complex psychology of WWII, not the least of which were the implementation of the extreme and determined minds of Hitler and Mussolini rising to power in a still fragile atmosphere concerning international relations following the First World War. Hitler’s ideal of a world in which he attempted to eliminate entire ethnic and religious groups - namely the Jews, Mussolini’s extreme totalitarian dictatorship and a Japan controlled by a brutal, stalwart military all joining forces in an effort to dominate the world and mould it to their own fundamentalist concepts. And so it was that Germany would instigate the official beginning of the Second World War when it invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, prompting England and France to step in and defend their interests. Although avoiding involvement for some time, the United States joined the Allied forces after Pearl Harbour was attacked by the Japanese in the remaining days of 1941. What ensued was a game changing, arrogant and profoundly dark period in human history, involving all the major nation powers of the time and documenting the extreme lows and highs that can be reached by human beings. Tens of millions of lives were ended and tens of millions more negatively and irreversibly altered. While the first half of the war was heavily in favour of the seemingly indomitable Nazi war machine, the tide began to turn in favour of the allies when bolstered by Russian support and finally hitting their stride with success in several key military operations, finally forcing the enemy into an unconditional surrender. Upon the announcement broadcast across the globe, celebration erupted immediately with officials, politicians and the general public shamelessly partaking in popping the champagne and other less glamorous forms of alcohol! After six long years, the European conflict had arrived at a peace deal and although war still raged for many Western allies further On this day…. east, with the atomic bomb yet to be dispensed, it nevertheless amounted to the end Osama Bin Laden killed - May 3, 2011 of unspeakable oppression, genocide and suffering for many European natives. On this day, the first anniversary of the A blemish on the day was the Halifax riots in Canada, an ugly break out of emotional aggression in response to the closing of all bars across the country intended to curb any out of hand partying, causing the exact opposite, but for the most part VE Day was inaugurated and is still observed in remembrance of the end of a devastating , however remarkable world event, leaving no person untouched. The war was officially over when Japan surrendered later in that same year on August 15 and V-J Day is also a celebrated historical occasion on this day and for some on September 2, the official signing of their surrender and the final conclusion to the war. These days, VE or Liberation Day remains a formal observance, marked in some areas by a public holiday to celebrate this victory over the enemy, and the release of the world from the potentially calamitous outcome of seeing the Nazi and Japanese war machines succeed in their contemptible designs. It also serves to remind us all of the devastating consequences of violent conflict on such a grand scale. Education is the now a key focus in steering our future leaders minds to embrace open, tolerating and generous values and learn from past experiences such as the profoundly distressing and unreasonable world wars of our history.

World Day for Cultural Diversity, Dialogue and Development - May 21, 2012 By no means is the discussion for world peace a recent concept, but in 2001, following the September 11 terror attacks on the twin towers in the United States, the UN put years of collaborative discourse into solid practice with the Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity.

C/E/G-7 March 12

capture and death of world famous terrorist, Osama Bin Laden took place. Wanted for the 2001 terror attacks in the United States he had been on the run for the best part of 10 years, protected and hidden by his many supporters but finally located, hiding out in Pakistan where a military operation descended upon him in the hopes of capture but finally ending in gunfire and the death of the western worlds most wanted man. Volcano wipes St Pierre off the map May 7, 1902 On this day, over one hundred years ago, the entire city of Saint Pierre, known as the Paris of the Caribbean was wiped off the map. The cities population was apparently preoccupied with an important government election and failed to heed the warning signs of an imminent volcanic eruption and was consequently buried in ash within hours of the initial blast. Over 1600 people were killed.

Joan of Arc was martyred - May 30, 1431 On this day, following her highly unorthodox involvement in the Hundred Years War between France and England, historical French hero, Joan of Arc was burned at the stake after finally being captured by the English. In 1920, she was officially acknowledged as a Christian saint by the Roman Catholic Church.

C/E/I-02 Nov 11

Those preceding events brought to the fore the powerful influence of “intercultural dialogue in preventing segregation and fundamentalism”, particularly whilst the world is heading toward globalization. And so the following year, the World Day for Cultural Diversity, Dialogue and Development was born, to increase awareness and keep at the forefront of the public mind, the critical importance for both cultural diversity and tolerance. Primary to the basics of achieving this goal is the discouraging of extreme and fanatical behaviour and mindsets, marking them as uncooperative and out of place in our world to be shared amongst many hundreds of differing and often contradictory creeds. A foundation for cooperation is the awareness and acknowledgement of the riches to be found and enjoyed within a multitude of often deeply rooted and ancient customs, beliefs and practices around the world and throughout history. Expatriate communities particularly, must learn the importance of cultural acceptance and tolerance and Bali is certainly not a mild adjustment. A remarkable island as part of the primarily Muslim culture of the Indonesian archipelago, Bali practices it’s own unique form of Hinduism, expressed through endless ceremonies and daily offerings, often baffling newcomers used to the supposedly more orderly operations in developed parts of the world. The UNESCO website asserts several pearls of wisdom which the world could benefit greatly from implementing as fundamental building blocks for values to be followed by all world citizens. - Equitable exchange and dialogue among civilizations, cultures and peoples, based on mutual understanding and respect and the equal dignity of all cultures is the essential prerequisite for constructing social cohesion, reconciliation among peoples and peace among nations. - Cultural diversity is a driving force of development, not only in respect of economic growth, but also as a means of leading a more fulfilling intellectual, emotional, moral and spiritual life. - In its rich diversity, culture has intrinsic value for development as well as social cohesion and peace. Last year was the 10th anniversary of this observance and events that took place around the world as part of the International Festival of Cultural Diversity included exhibitions, seminars, musical concerts and more. This year UNESCO is collaborating with several groups and individuals in positions of influence to deliver a grassroots campaign, ‘do one thing for diversity and inclusion’. A Facebook page has been set up and to learn more about how to become involved or offer support to such an integral forum for the positive development of the only world we all share, you can visit the official website of the United Nations. www.un.org/en/events/culturaldiversityday/

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit By Michele Cempaka

Clearing Negative Thoughts & Patterns

I often get clients who ask me, “How can I stop my negative thoughts?” or “How can I change my unhealthy patterns with relationships, eating, etc?” This is something that so many of us are challenged with on a daily basis. We think our thoughts are who we are, when actually thoughts are just thoughts. And unhealthy patterns are really akin to bad habits; both have one key element in common – unconscious behavior. So when we become more aware of our thoughts and unhealthy patterns, they begin to transform. It is through our denial and unwillingness to accept what’s going on, that perpetuates the problem. “What we resist will persist,” is a wonderful slogan I once learned while doing an ‘Art of Living’ yoga course. So how do we become more conscious? Well, I know you’re probably hoping that you can take a pill like the guy in the movie: ‘Limitless’ who became super-conscious and a genius instantaneously. Wouldn’t that be nice? Unfortunately no pill like this exists that I know of, so that means we’ve got to do the self-work which takes time and commitment. As we look deeper into our internal world, the thoughts and feelings that arise and our reactions to them, we become the observer of our lives and ourselves. We begin to recognize that these thoughts are not real – just imaginings of what we perceive through our personal filter that we utilize to view the world, ourselves and others. One tool that can be helpful in detaching from your negative thoughts is to ask: “Who does this thought belong to?” Through asking ourselves this question, we will begin to experience emptiness, as the thoughts slowly disintegrate into nothingness. Continue asking: “Who does this thought belong to?” whenever a negative thought arises – become the observer of your life, and you will naturally discover that you are so much more than your thoughts. Another wonderful technique that I recommend is called the ‘Wise Mind Process’ by Marilyn Gordon. I often use this with my clients and myself whenever I experience a difficult issue in my life that I can’t seem to let go of. The process is a guided meditation which goes like this: 1. 2.

3. 4.

Pay attention to what’s going on inside of you. Describe it to yourself. Take a deep breath in, and breathe deeply into whatever you’re experiencing. As you breathe out, disperse it. Break it up into tiny molecules and release it. Do this as many times as you like until you feel much lighter. Ask your ‘Wise Mind’ what it would like to tell you about this. Imagine yourself as you’d like to be. Then, find a word or phrase that symbolizes the healing of the experience or issue. Put your thumb together with your index finger, and say your word or phrase. Open yourself up to this wholeness.

Check to see how you feel and see if there’s anything else you need to pay attention to. You can do the process again and also ask yourself if there is anything else you need to do to heal this issue. Do this process as often as you like at

any time. This technique is very powerful and can be used to heal and transform many areas of your life, including limiting beliefs, unhealthy patterns, negative thoughts, traumas and fears. For those who know Reiki level 2 and up, you can also use the Seiheki Chiryoho treatment, which is also a very effective technique for clearing and healing negative thoughts and unhealthy patterns or addictions. For this method close your eyes and ‘hara-center’ yourself: focus your awareness on your seika tanden – an area deep inside your body mid way between your navel and the top of your pubic bone. For a few moments, simply ‘be’ – silently and restfully watching the breath and loosely focusing on the natural rhythms of your breathing. When you’re ready, write down your positive intention, for example, “My thoughts are clear and positive. I am now totally at peace and happy in my life.” Then draw the Cho Ku Rei (CKR) symbol on either your left or right palm and place this hand over your occipital ridge letting the Reiki flow. When you intuit it is time to move to the next stage, draw the Sei Hei Ki on your palm then the CKR, and place this hand over your occipital ridge again and your other hand on your forehead. Let the Reiki flow, and at the same time repeat your affirmation. Continue for a few minutes until you intuit it is time to stop.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Covarrubias in Bali to take its toll and the couple longed for a more leisurely and satisfying lifestyle. Impressed by tourist pamphlets, travel articles, films, Hickman Powell’s book The Last Paradise, and Gregor Krause’s vivid images of luxuriant landscapes and bronze skinned bare-breasted maidens, Bali caught their attention. Financed by a cash prize for Covarrubias’ illustration of Gershwin’s An American in Paris and armed with a letter of introduction to Walter Spies, the couple set sail from San Francisco in May 1930. There’s a wonderful description of their first steamship voyage to Asia from USA’s west coast which took six weeks. In Shanghai, they boarded a KPM steamer for the Dutch East Indies. On Bali, they moved into a large free-standing eight-poster sleeping pavilion in the small artist’s community of Belaluan, bought an old Chevrolet which they named The Dog, and hired a Javanese cook.

With a keen eye and intense curiosity, he went everywhere with pencil in hand, drawing, taking notes, rendering sketches. He interviewed priests, spirit mediums, storytellers, singers, puppeteers, poets, artists, royalty and dance masters. He borrowed sacred lontar manuscripts to transcribe ancient legends in Old Balinese script. When he ran out of space in his notebooks, he used message pads, napkins, scraps of paper, anything on hand. Almost half a century after his death, the work by Miquel Covarrubias (1904-1957) still continues to capture the imagination of the art world. This acclaimed Mexican artist was among an elite circle of foreign anthropologists, ethnologists, intellectuals, and musicians who were drawn to Bali in the 1930s, devoting themselves to publishing a body of anthropological literature with no parallel anywhere else in the world. But one scientific and esthetic work stands out among all the rest. Completely immersing in Balinese life, Covarrubias’ The Island of Bali was the outcome of the writer’s deep appreciation and study of Balinese culture. His way of trying to understand the Balinese way of life was to furiously transcribe everything he saw, heard, felt and experienced in letters, ink and pencil sketches, illustrations, gouaches and paintings. Covarrubias in Bali presents 50 color and 30 blackand-white photographs documenting the artist’s work, much of which has remained hidden from public view since the 1930s. All the works represented were executed between 1930 and 1936 and demonstrated that Covarrubias was not only a draftsmen and painter with an extremely personal and elegant style, but also a Renaissance Man who embraced a number of disciplines, among which was insightful ethnological observation. Unlike his famous contemporary Diego Rivera, Covarrubias has always been given short shrift as an artist. Rich in tropical colors and heavily influenced by the Art Deco movement and the Mexican muralist style, Covarrubias’ sensual paintings show an amazing lack of rigidity and economy of line. He wouldn’t hestitate to sketch women at their bath in the famous sacred spring of Tampaksiring, the sketches later turned into some of his most beautiful paintings. His Bather Holding Up Her Kemban, in the book’s catalog section, is considered his masterpiece. Covarrubias’ brilliant career began when he left his home country at the age of 19 for New York where, within the span of a few years, he achieved recognition as a witty and much-admired caricaturist for glossy magazines like Vanity Fair and New Yorker, and also as a talented book illustrator and set designer. In 1930 Covarrubias married Rosemonde Cowan, a popular dancer and choreographer on the Broadway stage and silent films. A dazzling beauty, Rose posed for photographers for Alfred Stieglitz which were published in fashionable magazines of the day. Before long, the stress of life in the fast lane was beginning

C/E/G-02 May 12

Covarrubias immediately set about observing and accumulating data on Balinese customs, religion and ceremonies. His host Gusti Alit Oka introduced him to musicians and dancers. Rose took more than 1000 black and white photographs in all which she processed and printed herself on Bali. Miquel met eminent writers, anthropologists and musicologist such as Jane Belo and Colin McPhee, the great kebyar dancer Mario and the painting master I Gusti Nyoman Lempad. The results seven years later was the authoritative Island of Bali, published to rave reviews in 1937. Embellished with full page color reproductions, 75 line drawings and 114 photographs, the book contained amazingly concise descriptions, penetrating insights, and was replete with footnotes, references and a bibliography worthy of distinguished Ph.D thesis. The price was set at $5 to keep it within reach of every purse. C/E/U-25Jan. 12

Covarrubias and his wife Rose made two trips to Bali for a total of 20 months. By time Island of Bali was published, 30,000 tourists per year were visiting Bali and roundthe-world cruise ships were descending on the island like the plague. One critic from a Kansas City newspaper snidely called Covarrubias’ book Farewell to Bali. In the first section of Covarrubias in Bali, biographer Adriana Williams narrates the artist’s experiences and how he managed to connect spiritually and artistically with the people. In the next chapter, fine art specialist Yu-Chee Cong examines Covarrubias’s extraordinary synthesis of Mexican and Balinese artistic traditions within the context of Balinese art and that produced by foreign artists such as Rudolph Bonnet and Le Mayeur. A 46-page catalog of Covarrubias’ most important Balinese works is followed by a detailed chronology of the artist’s life, works and exhibitions and a selection of Rose’s photograph’s of Balinese life during the 1930s. All the book’s photographs and illustrations are meticulously captioned, though the small serifed italic typeface chosen, though elegant, makes the captions difficult to read. The last 10 pages of the book reproduce the artist’s tattered hand- and type-written field notes which would wondrously form one day a record of the folk art and spirit of Bali that would impact the world’s understanding of the island for generations.

Boutique is Beautiful – Especially when you are all at Sea A New Trend in Scuba Diving By Simon Pridmore The use of the noun “boutique” as an adjective describing hotels that cater to a small niche market and offer a more personal service has become commonplace recently in Bali, following a trend that began a few years ago in cities in Europe and the USA. However, in one respect Bali is leading the boutique trend and that is in the world of floating hotels for scuba divers known as liveaboards.

the operations can best be described as niche-market cruise ships. Perfect for Indonesia With its 17000 thousand-plus islands located right in the middle of the coral triangle and with the greatest marine life diversity on the planet, Indonesia is home to some of the most fabulous diving in the world and liveaboards are the perfect way to experience the best of what the archipelago has to offer underwater. With increasing demand the number of vessels has grown accordingly and there are now a few dozen boats operating here, although moves are afoot to limit numbers. The Komodo straits between Sumbawa and Flores and the islands of Raja Ampat, off the coast of northwest Papua, are the most frequently visited areas and both have deservedly attained a reputation as world-class dive destinations.

Liveaboards These are boats that offer full-board accommodation and diving services, giving their guests the opportunity to dive in remote areas far away from major population centres; places where the marine life is more abundant and the environment comparatively pristine. Liveaboards have flourished in recent years in response to demand from divers with busy lives who want to make the most of their limited leisure time. Because they are living right on top of the sites they can easily do four or five dives a day, compared to the two dives a day commonly offered by land based operators. Another reason for their success is that diving from a liveaboard does not require the same physical effort as shore or small boat diving and this appeals to the baby boomers in the West who were the first generation that dived for fun rather than work and who are now at an age where options that require the expenditure of less energy tend to be more attractive. The Liveaboard Life If you are a keen diver the liveaboard experience is as close to perfect as life can get. You wake up right on top of one of the world’s best dive sites and start the day with a small first breakfast before pulling on your wetsuit, slipping into your dive gear, dropping into the clear, warm ocean above a coral reef teeming with fish all waiting to wish you good morning. An hour or so later you ascend to find the crew waiting to pick you up in a speedboat, relieve you of your equipment and drive you back to the mother ship where a hot shower and a second breakfast are waiting for you. The pattern of the day is thus set; eat, rest, dive, eat, rest, dive until you finally sink into slumber, serenaded by the sounds of the sea. The disadvantages are that you are living on a boat, which can be uncomfortable if sea conditions become rough. Your food options are limited and nightlife is usually non-existent. If you do not get on with your fellow travellers it is hard to escape but liveaboards are usually very convivial places full of like-minded, outgoing folk. If you were a non-diver the topics of conversation around the dinner table would probably send you screaming to your cabin but if, like most divers, you never tire of discussing whether a photo of a pigmy sea horse shows a bargibanti or a denise or debating the merits of split fins then a liveaboard lounge is where you belong. Options exist for all budgets, from dormitory accommodation in bunks for backpackers to palatial private cabins for the well heeled. The catering choices range from canteen-style buffets to a la carte fine dining. Some boats offer weekend schedules out of a busy city; others extended voyages lasting for several weeks which really let you get away from it all. In some places

Until recently, the experience of diving far flung Indonesian dive sites involved a certain amount of roughing it aboard functional boats which wrestled daily to provide internationally acceptable accommodation, service and culinary standards in the face of the logistical difficulties of operating in remote areas with limited human resources and tenuous supply chains. However, presented with such astonishing underwater entertainment, divers have always cheerfully put up with a little discomfort. The Boutique Option So, given these difficulties, it is perhaps surprising that it was an Indonesian dive operator in Bali who first came up with the idea of taking the boutique route. While working all over the world as guides and dive instructors, Alberto Reija and his wife Olga Spoelstra dreamed of creating the perfect liveaboard, offering high quality accommodation, catering and, most importantly, bespoke diving services to a select number of guests, creating the atmosphere of being on a luxury private yacht. In 2009 they launched the Damai, the world’s first five star boutique seaborne dive operation. The vessel was built by expert boat-builders in Sulawesi to high specifications in the style of the traditional Indonesian oceangoing phinisi. Notwithstanding its size, the Damai was designed for just ten passengers, served by over double that number of crew. All the guest cabins were tastefully decorated in polished wood and featured massive super-king size beds or a pair of queen-size beds with linen sheets. Two of the cabins were fitted out with bathtubs and all had separate individual ensuite shower and toilet facilities.

as “dive valets,” always on hand to help guests carry equipment to and from the tender boats, deal with last-minute problems and rinse and hang up suits post-dive. A prime example of the attention to detail is something that happens before and after every dive. Dehydration is a major and widely ignored contributory factor to decompression sickness and this is a significant threat to diver health and safety, particularly in remote areas far from recompression chambers. So, while folk are preparing for a dive and as soon as they are back on board, a Damai crew member passes around the dive deck with glasses of iced water to help them keep their hydration levels up. They Said It Wouldn’t Work The launch of the first Damai liveaboard raised the bar for the industry substantially. In the wider world of the land-based hospitality industry the approach the Damai was adopting was hardly novel. As mentioned earlier, one of the main reasons that boutique hotels succeed is because they offer a higher level of individual service and there is a growing sector of the market that demands this. In the world of scuba diving, however, the concept was revolutionary. Other operators, their jaws dropping, questioned how the Damai’s first class standards could be sustained, particularly in the challenging environment of the outlying Indonesian islands. However, Alberto and Olga had foreseen, not only that divers’ needs were changing but also that Indonesia itself was undergoing a transformation. Rapid progress and changes in education and outlook among the younger generation were producing a more skilled and ambitious workforce. Furthermore, partly because of the popularity of Indonesian workers in the cruise ship industry, an expanding pool of trained staff was now available with the talent and personality to run a high-end operation at sea. Finally, and crucially from a logistical point of view, communications across the archipelago were improving rapidly. Success following Success With a successful first twelve months behind them and healthy advance bookings stretching several years ahead, a second boat, Damai Dua, was planned and has now been launched. The same boutique formula has been applied to the new vessel but this time they have built bigger and better, giving divers even more individual space on the dive deck, an expanded camera room, an additional outdoor dining facility and a dedicated area on board for massages. Yes, the boat crew includes qualified masseurs! Responding to market demands the accommodation has been reconfigured to include four large single berth cabins, each with a queen-size bed, private shower and separate toilet. Two stern staterooms both have a private sun deck and loungers. Exclusive, high-end boutique liveaboards are now appearing in other popular diving areas as operators in the Caribbean, the Philippines, the Gulf of Thailand and elsewhere follow Bali’s trend-setting lead.

The idea was to impress divers not only with their surroundings but also with the service. Rooms would be cleaned every morning while the divers were in the water, dirty laundry would be spirited away and returned the same day and in the evening a turn down service would include a chocolate on the pillow. Remember this is a dive boat! The boutique approach extended to the diving as well. A specific air-conditioned room was designed especially for photographers, with plenty of dedicated space for them to store and set up their equipment and an individual charging station for every guest. The dive deck featured a personal rinse tank for each diver and, to complement the maximum one dive guide to four divers ratio, crew were trained to act

Why are Earthworms so Good

‘Hi, can you please tell me?Is it good or bad if you find worms in the soil or in the pot plants? Thanks. Michael’ The short answer is that earthworms eat organic material and dirt and when they defecate, they add nutrients back to the soil. It’s like animal manure, but much more effective and odorless at the same time. What more could you want from a fertilizer? Earthworms move through the ground, recycling dead and decomposing organic material back into soil, distributing nutrients and improving soil structure. Some people think that earthworms disgusting but I like them. The great philosopher Aristotle (330 B.C.) referred to earthworms as ‘the intestines of the soil’. If you have ever dug around in the soil, you most likely have come across an earthworm. They are an integral part of any healthy garden ecosystem most importantly because they keep the soil aerated and full of nutrients. They are the sign of a healthy soil, so earthworms in the soil or pots are definitely a good sign! Charles Darwin the great evolutionary biologist completed his final work just months before his death titled ‘The formation of vegetable mould, through the action of worms, with observations on their habits. (1881). Here are some quotes from the book ‘It is a marvelous reflection that the whole expanse has passed, and will again pass, every few years through the bodies of worms. The plough is one of the most ancient and most valuable of man’s inventions; but long before he existed the land was in fact regularly ploughed, and still continues to be thus ploughed, by earthworms. It may be doubted whether there are many other animals which have played so important a part in the history of the world as these lowly organised creatures.’ ‘Without the work of this humble creature, agriculture, as we know it, would be very difficult, if not wholly impossible.’ Here are some other amazing strange facts about worms Worms cannot hear and lack eyes but can still sense light, and they do not have lungs breathing through their skin. Worms can have between 1-5 pairs of hearts, and can live for 6 years, Earthworms will eat almost anything that was once alive, but is now dead. Earthworms can survive in soil that freezes gradually, but sudden freezing would kill them. They can live under water for a short time. A worm is a “hermaphrodite”, it has both male and female reproductive organs. Why are worms so good? Worms are nature’s farmer. Earthworms are so vital to soil health. They are constantly moving from the bottom to the top, and then back down again. The whole time tilling, aerating, eating and fertilizing the soil with castings (worm poo) on their way. Castings are one of the best fertilisers that you can ever have. It is full of nutrients that help plants fight disease. Worms feed on decaying organic material and soil. Their digestive system concentrates the organic and mineral concentrations of the food they eat, so the castings are richer in available nutrients than the soil1 around them. The fabulous worm poo castings are several times higher in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium than the surrounding

topsoil, and when they die worms also decompose rapidly, further contributing to the nutrient content of soil. The best bit is that castings won’t burn the roots of your plants as can happen with manure or chemical fertilisers, and worm faming bins usually have a container at the base to collect all the castings or compost tea as they say, but I refer to it as ‘worm juice’. Seaweed tea and worm juice are my personal favorites for any soil amendment or conditioning for my garden soil. The network of channels they make, as they move through the soil leads to increased porosity and moisture retention. This literally means more water can penetrate the soil, whilst more water can also be held or stored within the soil without the ground becoming soggy or water-logged. This improves soil structure by creating a loose soil that is easily penetrated by roots. How to increase the number of earthworms? Well the best way to do so is to add more organic matter to the soil. They primarily feed on decaying plants and other small organisms, algae, bacteria, and fungus. They also obtain their food from the ground in which they burrow. They use huge quantities of soil to extract the organic material needed for nutrition. An earthworm can consume its own weight daily, so this means 1kg of worms can consume 1kg of food scraps in a day.

C/Ho/I-05 Oct. 11

Worms especially love nitrogen rich green organic matter such as grass clippings or leaves, but also love fruit and vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, tea bags, bamboo leaves, palm fiber, compost heaps, and almost anything that has been living. The more worms you encourage into your garden the healthier your plants will be. Worms, as well as plants, do best with moderate levels of soil moisture. Too much or too little is bad for both worms and your plants. One thing they don’t like is citrus, so don’t put orange, lemon or grapefruit peels in the compost, they can’t handle the acidity, and it will likely kill them. Most worms do best when pH is near neutral. Adding synthetic nitrogen fertilizers long term may also repel earthworms as salty conditions may result, and the earthworms will either leave or die. Reduce your use of pesticides and fungicides which are especially toxic to worms. Organic gardening is always best!

C/Ho/G-22 Feb. 12

Earthworms really are nature’s little blind gardeners. I can’t emphasize enough how important worms are to the health of your soil, and therefore garden. They recycle organic matter then leave behind fertilizer in the form of castings, all the while aerating the soil and increasing its porosity and water holding capacity. They till, aerate and fertilise. Remember that the next time an earthworm wriggling in the soil. P.S.

When should I take my footwear off in Bali? A Dummy’s Guide to what to do with your Stinkies… It’s got to be admitted – footwear can be pretty filthy fashion accessories. This goes double if you wear them in Bali since there are always piles (or should I say ‘parcels’) of icky, sticky things to tread in as you negotiate the potholed streets and damp alleyways of this island, especially since Balinese love to keep mangy dogs. The Balinese also consider feet to be the most unclean part of your body. For educational purposes, let’s consider footwear an extension of this philosophy. Feet are, of course, the antithesis of the head: the most sacred part. In most Asian cultures, shoes are removed when entering people’s houses or important places. In Bali, it’s generally better to assume that you should take your shoes off when visiting someone’s house, unless they really insist you don’t need to. Ironically, those with plumper wallets foster more relaxed ‘shoes off policies’ than most – I guess they have tons of staff on standby ready to mop up afterwards! It’s also good manners to take your footwear off if you use someone’s toilet. This can be a bit difficult if you’re wearing socks as many of the toilets have wet floors and no towels available for drying off. The other downside is that you probably risk catching some nasty fungal infection from the toilet floor as they are notoriously not the cleanest part of a Balinese home. Mosques stipulate footwear removal and you’ll see shoes and sandals lined up outside. In Hindu temples, worshippers often take their sandals off to sit on (extra butt padding on a hard ground?), so it’s probably a good look to follow suit; however, footwear removal is not mandatory. Certain wards in some hospitals and some classrooms in learning centres are footwear free zones. You’ll be asked to leave them at the door, or even provide little brightly coloured cubby holes for you. I think that the best tip I can give you is to go with what everyone else is doing. If in doubt, ask, or look for neat line-ups of sandals as a guide. Copyright © Kulture Kid 2012 You can read all past articles of Kulture Kid at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

“Grilled Fulminologist” The Greek god Zeus had a thunderbolt as a weapon and the Norse god Thor had thunder and lightning coming from his hammer. Indeed through time immemorial thunderbolts have been considered the deterrent of choice for any self respecting deity. We are all fully aware that the gods use lightning bolts to smite anyone who displeases them which is probably why brain surgeons, merchant bankers and other members of the wealthcare industry are always very careful to put lightning conductors on their rooftops (there must be a couple of dozen on the roof of the New York Stock exchange). We think we are pretty smart these days don’t we? But you know there are lots of things that we don’t know much about at all. Lightning is a case in point. It isn’t easy studying lightening you know. Imagine being a Fulminologist - someone who participates in fulminology or the study of lightning. “I say we need to get close enough to take some readings. Now all we need is a bolt of lightning. There’s one, grab your multi meter, oh er no it’s gone. There’s one, damn, too late. What about tha…., oh never mind.” You can never predict when or where a lightning strike will occur and even if you could you wouldn’t want to get too close now would you? It’s a bit like studying death I suppose. We don’t know what happens after we die because no one has lived to tell the tale and have you noticed there are not many fulminologists around. The few that do get close enough to lightning to collect any useful information end up like a well done lump of rump left on the barbeque too long. Probably the most well known fulminologist was that chap Benjamin Franklin who famously went flying a kite in a thunderstorm. I’ve heard of people being keen on their hobby but this is ridiculous. I once met an obsessive golfer who used to carrying on playing even in deep snow. “How do you find the ball in a snowdrift?” I stupidly asked, “Oh we use a florescent orange ball” came the even more absurd reply. Sorry, I digress. What we do know is that lightning is caused by electrical discharge. A difference of electrical energy builds up between clouds and the ground (or between clouds and clouds) until the potential difference is large enough for an electrical discharge to take place in the form of a bolt of lightning. Usually the ground is positively charged while the clouds are negative. The lightning takes the path of least resistance usually between tall objects (such as trees and tall buildings) that are electrically connected to the ground but closest to the base of the clouds. A current of anything between 30,000 to 120,000 ‘erbs flows from the ground to the clouds. This is negative lightning but in some cases lightning can be positive flowing from the clouds to the ground. In positive lightning the current can be far greater and may be as much as 300,000 ‘erbs.

perhaps you might consider dragging him outside in the rain and tying him to a tree or sending him to a Mad Hatters Tea Party to build up his immunity.

Some people think that thunder is the sound made by lightning. They say that the air in and around a bolt of lightning gets really, really hot (about 20,000 degrees C) and expands rapidly causing a shock wave which travels at the speed of sound, a sonic boom no less, which, if you are close by, will sound like a sharp crack while further away will sound more like a rumble. Light (299,792,000 metres per second) travels a lot faster than sound (343 metres per second) so there will be a time delay between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder that follows depending on how far away the lightning is. A distance of one kilometre away will give a delay of about 3 seconds but if you are very close, the sound is almost instantaneous and you may even smell ozone. Any closer and you won’t hear or see much at all, ever again.

It must have been a great relief when, in 1749, Benjamin Franklin invented the lightning conductor and the clergy could rest easy in their beds. In fact Benjamin “I’ll prove my theory even if it kills me” Franklin only flew the kite because he was pretty fed up of waiting for his local church to be completed so he could install it. The purpose of a lightning conductor (or lightning rod) is quite simple, to provide a safe pathway for lightning to discharge to earth that avoids damage being caused to structures or people.

The second most common type of lightning and the best known is Cloud to Ground lightning (or Ground to Cloud lightning depending on which way the electricity flows) which is an electrical discharge between a cumulonimbus cloud and the ground. This is the type that poses most threat to people and property because, surprise surprise, it strikes the ground or anything connected to the ground.

In some cases in the past the framework of steel reinforcing bar has been used to carry the electric current to ground. This is not a good idea. The concrete and steel in reinforced concrete combine to form a synergistic relationship (the sum is greater than the combined strength of the parts) which is dependent on the concrete’s ability to encase the steel. The huge currents involved in lightning create enormous heat which will make the steel expand and is bound to damage the integrity of the concrete’s encasement of the steel thereby weakening the structure.

The experts tell us that the most effective treatment for astraphobia is exposure to thunderstorms to eventually build immunity. I suppose they also believe that throwing people off cliffs cures vertigo. Between 15 and 30 percent of dogs frequently exhibit severe anxiety during thunderstorms so if your dog starts watching the weather forecast (or party political broadcasts for that matter)

In 1745 Peter Ahlwardts wrote a paper “Reasonable and Theological Considerations about Thunder and Lightning” which advised individuals seeking cover from lightning to go anywhere except in or around a church.

Lightning conductors should be placed close to or on the structure they are to protect and the top of the lightning conductor must be situated higher than the top of the structure. If it is mounted on the structure the cable to earth should be as straight as possible and placed on the outside surface rather than within the structure.

Believe it or not astraphobia is even more prevalent than Politicophobia (the fear of politics) although the symptoms are similar and include sweating, trembling, crying, panic attacks, feelings of dread, and rapid heartbeat. The victim might hide underneath a bed, under the covers, in a closet, in the cellar or any other place where they feel safe. Efforts are usually made to smother the sound of the thunder (or the politician); the person may cover their ears or curtain the windows. A sign that someone has astraphobia is a heightened interest in weather forecasts.

Burner

Tall church spires have historically been fairly obvious prime targets for lightning strikes which must have made priests and vicars start to look back through their pasts to see what might have caused a distinct absence of demeanour in the almighty. Their early attempts to prevent lightning was by prayer, priests prayed rather a lot.

Most lightning strikes are in fact made up of 3 or 4 (or maybe more) ‘strokes’ each about 40 to 50 milliseconds apart. There are different types of lightning. Cloud to cloud lightning is the most common type and is an electrical discharge which may be within one cloud or between clouds.

Astraphobia is not, as many people think, the fear of testosterone driven young men riding Honda bebeks but is in fact the ‘irrational fear of lightning’ (I’m not so sure it can be considered irrational to be a tad disconcerted at the thought of 300,000 prime herberts up your chuff but that is the definition).

C/BM/A-19 Oct 11

Other people think this is all a load of codswallup. They reckon that the old Greek philosopher Aristotle had it right when he said that thunder is the noise made when clouds bang together.

Now that is a lot of ‘erbs. (If you remember an ‘erb or “Herbert” is an old Lancashire measurement of power created by one Herbert Ramsbottom of Oswaldtwistle and is defined as the amount of power required to push a 3 inch pork pie up a Yorkshireman’s left nostril. It is a little known fact that the original ‘erb was kidnapped by a Frenchman, Andre Marie Ampere, who modestly renamed it the ampere).

There are other types of lightning such as ball lightning, bead lightning and ribbon lightning but we won’t bother with those today.

When you get lightning there is a slight tendency that you will also get thunder.

A lightning conductor has three important elements: 1. A spike on the top which assists in generating an electric field. The tip of the spike should be rounded but not too blunt to be most effective. 2. A copper cable to connect the spike to earth by the most direct route possible. A good solid cable is needed usually about a centimetre in diameter. 3. A very good earth connection into the ground. A good earth is a centimetre diameter copper rod 4 metres long pushed into the ground. The earth connection needs to be readily accessible so that the effectiveness can be checked from time to time. The earth should be well installed and tested to have a very good electrical contact with earth. Earth connections are checked by measuring the electrical resistance between the copper rod and the surrounding ground.

Forked lightning is cloud to ground lightning that branches into several paths. Sheet lightning is a name for cloud to cloud lightning where the discharge itself cannot be seen but the cloud appears to light up as a sheet of light.

YOUR TRUSTED CONSTRUCTION EXPERTS

It is also important that the lightning conductor should not be connected to other items such as electrical circuits, television aerials, computer equipment or little boys who have a compulsion to take things apart or poke their fingers where they don’t belong. A friend called me a while ago. He climbed onto his roof and was shocked with what he found. He rang his internet service provider: “Excuse me but do you realise your internet dish has been bolted to my lightning conductor.” “Oh yes sir we often do that.” “Do you think that is a good idea?” “No one’s complained so far.” We simply cannot comprehend how much power is released when Zeus gets a bit agro and starts zapping things but it must be in the billions of trillions of ‘erbs. Make no mistake lightning is even bigger than Donald Trump’s ego. Once released it will take any easy path it can to get to earth and will frizzle, fry, toast, bake, roast, grill, poach or barbeque anything in its path.

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) I love the crunch and sweet sour taste of these pickles and they keep for weeks in the fridge. I’ve tried them with cauliflower too. Boil the flowerettes for just one minute, drain, and proceed as follows. These are fine to eat after a few hours but they get really good after a few days. Play with the ingredients to get the taste you want, trying different veggies and spices. Tom Yummy Pickled Carrots Serves 10 or More Ingredients: - 6-7 young carrots - 2 Tbl. salt - 2 cups rice vinegar - 1/4 to 1/2 cup palm sugar, grated (use smaller amount if you don’t like sweet pickles) - 1 Tbl. soy sauce - 2-4 kaffir lime leaves, washed, dried and torn into large pieces - 2 - 3 green chilies, washed, dried and cut in half retaining the seeds

- 2 stick of lemon grass, washed, dried and cut into three pieces - 4 slices of galangal, skinned - 4 cloves garlic, skinned and then cut into thick slices Directions: Clean and peel the carrots unless are using organic ones then just clean well. Cut them into sticks approximately 5-6 cm long and about ½ cm wide. Put them in a strainer and mix in the salt. Leave them to drain for 20 minutes. This helps them to remain crispy once in the pickling sauce.

NC/BM/I-02 May 12

Meanwhile in a pot mix the rice vinegar, palm sugar and soy sauce and cook simmering until the sugar is dissolved. Take off the heat and leave to cool for 15 - 20 minutes. After 20 minutes rinse the carrots with clean water and drain. Dry on paper towels. Arrange the carrots in an interesting jar interspersing the kaffir lime leaves, chilies, lemon grass, galangal and garlic slices. Pour the sauce over them, filling the jar. Put the lid on and store in the fridge for up to a month. Mine don’t last that long! Happy snacking! All recipes are available on the Bali Advertiser website in both English and Indonesian versions.

THE OCEAN’S RAINFORESTS By Tara Khandro

The first time I encountered the magic of a coral reef Ringo Starr accompanied me in my head singing ‘I’d ask my friends to come and see an octopus’ garden with me.’ I was transfixed by the neon colored corals and the abundant diversity of marine life happily swimming in this underwater garden. My first impulse was to lie down on this rainbow painted reef and intimately commune with its rich life, just as I would lie in a mountain meadow. Yet I was told before the dive that although this coral looks as if it is static like stone, coral are colorful creatures akin to the jellyfish.

knowledge we have to shore up existing protected areas, as well as to designate new sites where threats are highest, such as the populous hearts of the Caribbean, Southeast Asia, East Africa and the Middle East,” said Mark Spalding, senior marine scientist at the Nature Conservancy and a lead author of the Reefs at Risk report. A baby coral polyp may not be as heart wrenching as a polar bear or orangutan, yet these vulnerable, beautiful beings are designed to create a home for the oceans sea creatures-fish, dolphins, turtles and whales. The Municipality of Pemuteran, Singaraja, Northwest Bali along with local dive shops, restaurants and hotels have been forerunners in regenerating and maintaining healthy reefs in what is now known as the Pemuteran Coral Reef Protected Area. Eleven years ago the reefs in this exquisitely beautiful sheltered bay were devastated by dynamite blasting, overfishing and irresponsible divers. 100 year old corals were banished with the bombs. Now 300 meters of coral reef situated on 2 hectares is home to The Karang Lesteri Project, the largest Biorock® coral nursery and restoration project in the world, exceeding the combined sizes of all other ongoing projects in the Pacific, Caribbean, and Indian Ocean.

Coral begin their life as free-floating larvae. Eventually the larva attaches itself to a hard surface and grows into a polyp. A single coral polyp may be as large as a saucer or smaller than the head of a pin. The polyp begins to form colonies that then sexually or asexually reproduce. A coral polyp consists primarily of tentacles, a mouth and a gut looking a bit like an upside down jellyfish. Many corals are passive feeders on plankton. Most corals also receive nutrition symbiotically from microscopic algae (zooxanthellae) living within their tissue. Coral polyps are generally nocturnal feeders. Millions of these tiny baby polyps cooperatively work as colony, through successive generations to create the limestone skeletons that form the framework of a coral reef. A reef grows very slowly. It may take up to a hundred years for a coral reef to grow one foot. Coral reefs are the rainforests of the sea. Like the rainforests they are a biologically diverse ecosystem. Coral reefs occupy 0.07 percent of the combined oceans floor yet they are home to one quarter of the world’s marine species. The oceans rainforests serve as home for many fish that find themselves on a plate for dinner. The reefs generate billions of dollars annually in tourist and commercial fishing revenues. These ocean walls act as a barrier against storms and recently, scientists have discovered that coral communities may contain medicinal ingredients leading to treatment for cancer, malaria and the HIV virus. And like their rainforest siblings the coral reefs are vulnerable to the controlling interests of humans who do not comprehend their value in maintaining sustainable life for humanity on planet earth. These curious coral creatures are fragile. Stepping on a coral with a foot or a huge rubber fin extinguishes its life. Dropping an anchor on coral completely devastates that part of the reef. In Central America the reef known as The Belize Wall has only 50 percent live coral due to anchor damage from irresponsible dive masters. Snorkeling tourists pluck live coral from the garden to take home with them as a souvenir. 50 million tons of red and pink coral are harvested annually without regard to their regeneration to create necklaces worth USD $25,000. The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) lists blue, black and fire coral as endangered and is now considering adding the red and pink coral. The 2011 World Resources Institute (WRI) report entitled Reefs at Risk found that 75% of the world’s coral reefs are threatened by local and global impacts, including climate change. The report concluded that conservation efforts during the past decade have failed to halt overfishing, dynamite fishing, coastal development and pollution. Greenhouse gas emissions contributing to rising sea temperatures and ocean acidification due to higher carbon dioxide levels are killing coral reefs worldwide. Indonesia is identified as one of the 9 most vulnerable countries to coral reef degeneration. “At their core, reefs are about people as well as nature: Ensuring stable food supplies, promoting recovery from coral bleaching, and acting as a magnet for tourist dollars. We need apply the

In June 2000 Tom Goreau and Wolf Hilbertz of the Global Coral Reef Alliance, a non-profit coral reef protection organization introduced Electrolytic Mineral Accretion Technology (Biorock®) to the inhabitants of Pemuteran Bay as a safe, rapid method to regenerate the reef. Wolf, an architect invented Biorock® as a form of alternative construction materials. Tom Goreau saw its use as a safe, easy way to restore reefs.

are now more abundant with fish and tourists. Celia Gregory a London based mosaic artist says “Nature is my Goddess. She provides me with the flowing receptivity that provides me with inspiration and magic for my mosaics.” Celia, a dive master is forging a path into new creative waters with her underwater sculpture The Coral Goddess. “When I first saw Pemuteran Bay I envisioned a statue of a goddess rising out of a coral lotus flower sitting underwater.” The Coral Goddess, officially welcomed and blessed with a full Balinese ceremony, is a living artwork dedicated to the health of the seas. The goddess figurine is made out of volcanic stone and sits in a lotus shaped Biorock® assembly. “I collected only the loose and damaged baby corals from the surrounding reef much like a gardener lovingly creates a garden with a vision for what it will look like in full bloom.” The Biorock® structures in Pemuteran Bay are fueled through the donation of electricity from business owners along the beach. The Coral Goddess is the first Biorock® structure to receive its electrical charge from the sun and the wind. As The Coral Goddess reigns as a protective deity in Pemuteran Bay, the Great Barrier Reef, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is under siege by a vast dredging program conducted by the Gladstone Ports Corporation. This goliath has won approval from the Australian government to dredge 46 million cubic meters (the size of 27 cricket grounds) from the reef to construct three coal seam gas plants over the next 20 years. The toxins from the dredging are washing fish onto shore with a strange flesh disease. In the first 6 months of this operation of reef rape there has been a steep increase in deaths of endangered marine wildlife - 6 dolphins, 10 dugongs and 231 turtles. We are not separate from the earth. What we do to the earth results in destruction to ourselves. Oceans are great open hearts refusing no rivers and receiving all that floats into Her waters. If you love the ocean, diving and/or snorkeling then place a visit to the Pemuteran Coral Reef Protected Area on your list of things to experience on Bali. Being with the goddess and the other delightful living constructions activates deep appreciation for the wealth, comfort, grace and strength of the sea. The diversity of marine life is exceptional due to the vibrant health of the restored reef which attracts dense populations of fish. The bay also benefits from long term visits from diverse marine life due to the reef’s proximity to the Rajat Ampat reef located in the Northwestern tip of Indonesia’s Papuan ‘Bird’s Head Seascape.” Rajat Ampat lies in the heart of the coral triangle, the most bio-diverse marine region on earth. Rani Morrow-Wuigk a diver and underwater photographer resides on Pemuteran Bay and has created a unique coral conservation project entitled “Adopt A Baby Coral Project.” Rani lets us know that “Each one of us can help the earth. We just need to find a way to contribute…with gratitude. It is all about gratitude.”

The technology is simple: Construct a steel structure for the coral polyp to attach and run a few megahertz of electricity through the steel to cause dissolved minerals to crystallize on structures. These minerals grow into a white limestone- similar to that which naturally makes up coral reefs and tropical white sand beachesand has strength similar to concrete. The coral polyp then has familiar calcium like structure to attach to and can begin its life.

To adopt a baby coral: http://biorockbali.webs.com/ The Marine Foundation and the Coral Goddess: http://www. themarinefoundation.org/ Om Swastyastu Contact the writer at tarakhadro@yahoo.com

To regenerate two hectares of reef requires many hands and many structures. Biorock® technology combines science, creativity and community building to ensure a conscious interdependent relationship between reef, ocean and human. To date 56 Biorock® forms have been constructed by locals and internationals attending Biorock® workshops. 1 centimeter to 1.3 centimeters in diameter steel rods are pieced together to form various shapes such as a turtle, manta ray, flower and pyramid. The coral that grows on these configurations are exceptionally brightly colored and resistant to environmental stress. The colonies are brighter than their naturally growing counterparts, grow more rapidly and support dense populations of a variety of marine life. The corals selected for transplantation were those that were significantly damaged and most likely die, thus avoiding more damage to healthy corals. When the corals attain healthy maturity, some are transplanted to reefs farther out in the bay regenerating reefs that supply local fishermen with their livelihood and others remain in their Biorock® nurseries providing a few awe inspired meters of diving and snorkeling trails. The fishermen and villagers experience the value in regenerating the reefs as their livelihoods

UBUD SEARCH FOR OVER 40S VOLUNTEERS On the southern “tsunami coast” of Aceh, in the g e n t l e c o a s t a l farming community of Samatiga, most of the “over forties” members are missing. Staff at Yayasan Bumi Sehat’s new Aceh youth center hope to entice older, experienced volunteers to visit and help restore the confidence of the young people who survived the disaster but often had no family left alive. Australian AVI volunteer Jen Richardson is helping with the youth center project, and will seek collaboration with company CSR programs to provide it a solid financial base. Meanwhile, there are plans to refurbish a group of empty beachside houses for international volunteers and supporters. (It’s normally a quiet and beautiful coast.

Just received an sms from an Australian friend. “Oh lordie,” she said, “I just looked at the business card someone pressed into my hand by someone at Bali Buddha about their ‘yoga clothing’ line.. ‘look sexy, get spiritual’.” Is “getting spiritual” simply the latest tag line for your business? Or am I missing the point somewhere? TOUR DE TRASH The U.G.L.E. mob (Ubud Gang that Loves the Environment) is off and running. Plans are underway for a public recycling drop off booth in the Bintang Parking Lot, to be hosted by pak Nyoman Wirata, who owns the Makan Makan warung and Freak Coffee. Bali Recycling will run the booth and accept a wide range of items, including but not limited to plastic bottles, cans, metals, batteries, glass bottles and styrofoam (but not organic material, which should be composted at home.) The group is looking for local staff with English and enthusiasm for recycling. The group is also planning a “Tour de Trash”, for those who want to know what happens to our waste, and see how recycling and composting really helps clean up this island. Here’s hoping the tour will visit several local pro-active businesses, as well as some of the horror spots around the Ubud District. To offer recycling booth design ideas, sign up for meetings and get more info: Balirecycling@ gmail.com. On the other side of town, Ubud Fitness already has a recycling Drop Off Point, in front of its premises on Jl Gero Gadung, for members and anyone living close by.

FOSTER DOGS, SAVE LIVES If you love dogs but don’t think a fulltime houseguest would work for you, fostering a BAWA puppy is an opportunity to do something short-term for a four-legged puppy friend. BAWA staff frequently finds puppies that have been living in bad circumstances and need interim care, while preparing them for permanent adoption. This works better than keeping them at the clinic, as they are so young and small. Short-term fostering means a few days of feeding, providing loving care, socialization and a safe a r e a , perhaps giving some medicine, and coordinating with BAWA’s vets to make sure the puppies are healthy. Or fostering might involve keeping the puppies until they are permanently adopted into a stable home. One friend says, “they’ve been a healing remedy for my broken heart, since losing my last Bali dog.” You can foster puppies one time, or as an ongoing foster home. W: www.bawabali.com.

The Yoga Barn has expanded across the river, making it one of the most spacious yoga and community centers in Bali, with excellent facilities for night events, retreats and teacher training. A new “Green Zone” is part of the 3.5 acre expansion, so visitors to the center will still be surrounded by rice fields, gardens and trees – something that residents take for granted but is a rare find in yoga venues around the world. Founders say 80 % of its new land will remain untouched, while the new Yoga Barn is built completely of recycled materials. Ubud is becoming known as a center for conscious-minded people and action, and the Yoga Barn has developed an important role as a community hub, with many open plan spaces available for meetings and community events. Extensions include onsite accommodations, a larger amphitheater space, and another studio for workshops and classes. W: www. theyogabarn.com. INTERVIEW ENGLISH Young Indonesians working towards a career on a cruise ship will learn a lot from the first in a series of practical little English language books by Australian English teacher, Christina Bagnall. “Interview English; the international guide to successful interviews for cruise ships” is much more than a good vocabulary guide; it covers everything from interview technique to job descriptions for all the basic cruise ship jobs. Readers can work through exercises on their own, with a friend, or in a class, with simple, helpful steps along the way, and a sample of the internationally required Marlin test, with answers. Christina has worked as an English language teacher in Bali for many years, helping many of her students through this process.

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

The Ultimate Mind Booster! It would be nice to have a much sharper and clearer brain capable of clear and instant recollection of recent and past memories, and with the ability to think and make decisions rapidly and precisely. The problem is that as we age, for various reasons, our brain often starts losing its ability for rapid and precise thinking. Often memory loss is one of the first signs that something is wrong – forgetting people’s names or where you placed your keys, being unable to remember a simple shopping list and so on. In many cases the memory disturbances can progress even further leading to the dreadful mind destroying disease Alzheimer’s. Unfortunately there are no known medical cures for these problems, and heaven forbid should you start developing serious brain degeneration you will be in a rather hopeless situation. However there is hope! Piracetam – The Ultimate Mind Booster

Piracetam (2 oxo-pyrrolidone) is a “smart drug” developed in Belgium in the mid- 1960’s. This quite unique product falls into a class of drugs called “nootropics”. Nootropic means “to act on the mind”. Hundreds of studies have shown it to be a potent intelligence booster and CNS (central nervous system) stimulant with no known toxicity. The subjective effect described by many people who take piracetam is that it helps to “wakes up your brain.” It’s real life effects and safety were so impressive that piracetam prompted the creation of a new pharmaceutical category called nootropics. This area has been expanded in recent years, however piracetam is still one of the most potent and safest drugs in this field. The Benefits of Piracetam Piracetam enhances brain function under conditions of hypoxia (low oxygen- which can occur gradually as we age), and also enhances memory and some kinds of learning in normal humans. It has been used to treat conditions such as: dementia, dyslexia, stroke, vertigo, alcoholism, anemia and other health problems (Pelton, 1989). One of the most impressive effects of piracetam is that it improves information transfer between the right and left hemispheres of the brain (Buresova, 1976). Communication between both sides of the brain is linked with flashes of creativity. This may also be the basis for piracetam’s effectiveness in enhancing memory and cognition in children diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia (Dilanni, 1985). It has also been used to slow the rapid brain aging associated with Down syndrome. Piracetam, unlike many other drugs, appears to have a regenerative effect on the nervous system. Studies have shown that piracetam might increase the number of cholinergic receptors in the brain. Researchers found that older mice that were given piracetam had 30-40% higher density of these receptors than before (Pilch, 1988). This would indicate that piracetam does restore brain function. One theory of Alzheimer’s disease is that the decline of intellectual functions is partly caused by a decreased activity of the cholinergic system in the brain caused by cell death and cell degeneration. The researchers in the above study speculated that their findings could explain how piracetam works and could also explain the finding of Bartus, et. al. regarding a profound effect of combining choline with piracetam on memory enhancement of old rats.

Piracetam improves alertness in normal, healthy humans and age-impaired persons as well as improving the condition of Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia patients: In summary some of the research and clinical findings regarding Piracetam are as follows: • Increases Alertness (by an average of 50%) • Reduces Depression (by an average of 32%) and Anxiety • Improves Memory (by an average of 45%) • Alleviates the Paranoia that often occurs during the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. • Improves Sleep Disorders in Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia patients. • Improves Blood Circulation to the Brain (and may thereby alleviate Cerebral Insufficiency). • Alleviates the Learning Difficulties associated with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). • Improves Attention Span in normal, healthy humans and age-impaired patients. • Regenerates the Central Nervous System. • Increases the number of Cholinergic Receptors (i.e. Receptors for Acetylcholine) in the brain by up to 40% • Protects against Memory Loss from physical injury and chemical poisoning. • Improves Short Term Memory

NC/He/I-02 May 12

You need keep in mind that for the best results when using piracetam and to really enhance its effects, you should be also taking choline along with this drug.

C/He/I-21 March 12

Once you start taking piracetam you may notice increased creativity enabling you to be more productive at work, study and also in any artistic field. You may notice an uncanny ability to be completely focused on any topic without any distraction, and you may notice your ability to recall past and recent events greatly improve. Your attention span will also likely be increased allowing you to stay focused with ease for longer periods of time. Piracetam could well be the ultimate mind booster.

the art of body The Effects of Exercise on your Mental Health The depressive cycle We often talk about the mind and body as though they are completely separate - but they aren’t. My motto has always been “ An active mind cannot exist in an inactive body”. The point is that the mind can’t function unless your body is working properly - and vice versa. The state of your mind affects your body. So - if you feel depressive, unmotivated or anxious, you may do less and become less active - which can make you feel worse. You can get caught in a harmful cycle: To work properly, your body needs regular exercise - and most of us feel a jolt of energy, motivation and happiness when we are active. Until the last 100 years or so, you had to be quite active to just live your everyday life. Now, in modern Western societies, so much of what we used to do is done by machines. We drive cars, so we walk less (especially in Bali) and some of us spend our time at sedentary desk tasks. It doesn’t help that modern high - energy foods make us put on too much weight – or that fast food is becoming more readily available to us. So how can you start to get more active, day to day? You may be turned off by the word ‘exercise’ but - it doesn’t have to be about running around a track or working out in a gym. It can just be about being more active each day- perhaps just walking more, or taking the stairs rather than the lift.

C/He/G-02 May 12

Research shows you can fight Depression by keeping Fit Some people can get away with doing very little and live happily to a ripe old age - but most of us can’t. Broadly speaking, the less you do, the more likely you are to end up with: • low mood / depression • tension and worry. If you keep active, you are: • less likely to be depressed, anxious or tense • more likely to have a positive self-image about yourself • more likely to concentrate and focus better • more likely to sleep better • more confident and motivated • more likely to cope with cravings and withdrawal symptoms if you try to give up a habit such as smoking or alcohol • more likely to be able to keep mobile and independent as you get older • possibly less likely to have problems with memory and dementia. So - don’t worry about not doing enough - get started by building a bit more physical activity into your daily life now. Even a small change can boost your morale, give you a sense of achievement and help you to feel better. How to choose the activity • It must be enjoyable - if the treadmill is boring to you for example, try walking your dogs at sunset. • It must be something you can keep up for a long period of time. Don’t choose an activity that is way too athletic or demanding that you will give up. • It must help you to feel more competent, or capable. Gardening or DIY projects can do this, as well getting you more active. • It must give you a sense of control over your life – that you have choices you can make (so it isn’t helpful if you start to feel that you have to exercise). • It must help you to escape for a while from the pressures of life. • It is better if it a shared activity. The companionship involved can be just as important as the physical activity.

Why does exercise help your brain chemicals?

C/He/G-02 May 12

We are not yet exactly sure. There are several possibilities: • Most people in the world have always had to keep active to get food, water and shelter. This involves a moderate level of activity and seems to make us feel good. We may be built - or “hard wired” to enjoy a certain amount of exercise. Harder exercise (perhaps needed to fight or flight from danger) seems to be linked to feelings of stress, perhaps because it is needed for escaping from danger. • Exercise seems to have an effect on certain chemicals in the brain, like dopamine and serotonin. Brain cells use these chemicals to communicate with each other, so they affect your mood and thinking. • Exercise can stimulate other chemicals in the brain called “brain derived neurotrophic factors”. These help new brain cells to grow and develop. Moderate exercise seems to work better than vigorous exercise. • Exercise seems to reduce harmful changes in the brain caused by stress. How much exercise is enough for me to feel “happy” • Firstly - any exercise is better than none. • BUT a moderate level of exercise seems to work best. • This is roughly equivalent to walking fast, but being able to talk to someone at the same time. • You need to do about 30 minutes of moderate physical exercise on at least 5 days of every week. This can be done in one 30 minute session or broken up into shorter 10 or 15 minute sessions. • This can not only lower the risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer, but also seems to help depression – so you get a double benefit. • Don’t start suddenly - build more physical activity into your life gradually, in small steps.

Leptospirosis Feeling Lousy? Got a fever? Headache? Chills? Rash? The doctor will probably say that you have suspected typhoid fever or dengue fever and the chances are that you may indeed have either of these diseases as they are by far the most common causes of febrile illness in Bali. But what if these tests both show up negative? It could be leptospirosis. I have heard of several cases of this not-so-common febrile illness in the past month so it is worth being aware of it and taking measures to avoid it, which could be difficult given the islands flourishing rodent population. What is leptospirosis? Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease of humans and animals. It is caused by Leptospira bacteria that are found in infected animal urine and animal tissues. What are the symptoms? • Common initial symptoms of leptospirosis are fever, severe headache, sore muscles, chills, vomiting, and red eyes. These symptoms can mimic other diseases, such as influenza, typhoid fever, dengue fever and diagnosis is often difficult. Some people do not have all of these symptoms. • Some people with leptospirosis go on to develop severe disease. This can include Weil’s disease, which is kidney failure, jaundice (yellow coloration of the skin and eye balls which indicates liver disease), and hemorrhage into skin and mucous membranes. Meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the brain) and bleeding in the lungs can also occur. Most people who develop severe disease require hospitalization and severe leptospirosis can sometimes be fatal. How is it spread? • Leptospira bacteria usually enter the body through skin cuts or abrasions, and occasionally through the lining of the mouth, nose, and eyes. • Many different animals can harbor Leptospira bacteria in their kidneys. • Transmission can occur after contact with infected animal urine or flesh. • Soil, mud, or water that has been contaminated with animal urine can be the source of infection. • Eating contaminated food or drinking contaminated water has occasionally been responsible for transmission. • Rarely, leptospirosis can be transmitted from personto-person (for example, through sexual transmission, and transmission in breast milk). The leptospira bacteria can be transmitted in urine for months following infection. Who is at risk? • People at risk are those who have close contact with animals or who are exposed to water, mud, soil, or vegetation that has been contaminated with animal urine. • Some occupations are at higher risk (for example: farmers, vets, abattoir workers, and farmers). • Some recreational activities that involve contact with contaminated water or soil can also allow leptospirosis to be transmitted (for example: camping, gardening, bushwalking, white water rafting, mud-fights and other water sports). • Leptospirosis is very common in Indonesia with occasional outbreaks of epidemic proportions. • Recovery from leptospirosis infection can be slow. People can have a chronic-fatigue-like illness that lasts for months. Others can have persistent headache or depression. • Occasionally the bacteria can persist in the eyes and cause chronic eye inflammation. Because there are many different strains of leptospira bacteria, it is possible for someone to be infected with another strain and develop leptospirosis again.

How is it prevented? There are a number of ways to prevent leptospirosis. For people who work with animals: • Cover cuts and abrasions with a waterproof dressing; • Wear protective clothing (for example, gloves, eye shields or goggles, aprons and boots) when working with animals that could be infected, especially if there is a chance of contact with urine; • Wear gloves when handling animal placentas or stillborn or aborted animals or carcasses; • Shower after work and wash and dry hands after handling potentially infected material; • Do not eat or smoke while handling animals that may be infected. Wash and dry hands before smoking or eating; • Vaccinate livestock as recommended by your veterinarian. For other people: • Avoid swimming in water where there is a possibility of contamination with animal urine. • Cover cuts and abrasions with waterproof dressings, especially before coming into contact with soil, mud or water that may be contaminated with animal urine. • Wear footwear outdoors, especially when walking in mud or moist soil. • Wear gloves when gardening. • Control rodents by cleaning up rubbish and removing food sources that are close to housing. • Do not feed raw offal to dogs. • Wash hands with soap, as Leptospira bacteria are quickly killed by soap, disinfectants, and drying.

There is no human vaccine against leptospirosis. Vaccines are available to prevent leptospirosis in animals (cattle, pigs and dogs) but vaccinated animals are still susceptible to other strains of the organism that are not covered by the vaccine. How is it diagnosed? A doctor may suspect leptospirosis in someone who develops symptoms usually one to two weeks after exposure. Confirmation of leptospirosis is usually by a blood test that shows exposure to leptospira bacteria. In general, two blood tests taken more than two weeks apart are required to make the diagnosis. Occasionally, the bacteria can be grown from blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and urine. If you become sick in the weeks following possible exposure to animal urine or a contaminated environment, it is important to tell your doctor about the exposure. How is it treated? Leptospirosis is commonly treated with antibiotics such as doxycycline or penicillin. Because the testing can take some time and the disease can be severe, a doctor may choose to start antibiotics prior to confirming the diagnosis with tests. Antibiotic treatment is thought to be most effective if started early in the disease.

Man on a Ledge Wrongly accused of committing a robbery, an ex-cop escapes from prison and then concocts an elaborate scheme to prove his innocence. Director Asger Leth makes a very stylish and sleek thriller, in which the tension and suspense never lets up for a moment. Also, all of the cast, which includes Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Jamie Bell, and Edward Burns, throw themselves into the spirit of the movie with much gusto. If you are afraid of heights or suffer from vertigo, then don’t watch this action packed movie. Contraband In this tight action movie, Mark Wahlberg plays a retired drug smuggler trying to live quietly on the security system business he has built up. Still, when his brother-in-law gets into problems with a drug cartel, Mark agrees to do one more ‘run’ to help him get out of this trouble. Naturally enough, when Mark finally gets to Panama on a container freighter, to pick up his ‘cargo’, nothing goes quite to plan. Director Baltasar Kormakur makes another stylish and sleek thriller, full of many surprising twists and turns. The Sorcerer and the White Snake Jet Li’s glory days as a Kung Fu action icon are well behind him, but, Jet has matured into an excellent character actor, and he has always chosen very interesting roles and movies to appear in. This new Chinese movie, in which he stars, is no exception. Jet plays a Buddhist priest who has to save a foolish man from the clutches of an enticing Snake Demon. I can’t make up my mind what the targeted audience for this movie actually is. All of the magic and humor in the film are aimed at children, yet, the themes followed, such as obsessive love and demonic possession, are obviously strictly for adults. Director Tony Ching takes us on a fascinating journey into Chinese mythology and folklore, however, be warned, the English subtitles are not all that great, but as the movie is highly visual it is not all that hard to follow. The Woman in the Fifth This is the kind of movie which it is unfair to tell you too much about. If I do so, it will completely spoil it for you. An American writer goes to Paris to try and patch things up with his estranged French wife and daughter, but, there, he meets and falls in love with a very enigmatic and enchanting woman. That is about as much as I am prepared to say. Ethan Hawke and Kristin Scott Thomas star in this compelling psychological French mystery. W./E. As the cover of this DVD says, Madonna’s latest movie is: “A fascinating film - half brilliant, half awful”. As a screenwriter and director Madonna takes a look at the controversial love affair between the Prince of Wales and the divorcee Mrs. Wallis Simpson, from the Duchess’s point of view. Back in the 1930s their romance was scandalous, and Madonna has superbly captured this turbulent time in British history. However, Madonna intercuts this story with a really awful tale about an unhappily married woman, who finds true love with a Russian security guard, while attending the auction of the Windsor’s Estate at Sotheby’s in New York. Madonna shows real potential as a director, but, this movie is a terrible mess. However, it is well worth checking out, if only to see how Madonna’s film career is progressing. Joyful Noise After the death of their choir conductor, Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton squabble, for just under two hours, about who should become the new leader of their church choir. Dolly Parton’s choir robes have been specifically designed to accentuate her tiny waist and impressive bosom. It’s that kind of movie! The story is absolutely trite, however, the

Hysteria Apparently this movie is based on real events. Back at the conclusion of the Victorian era, the psychological condition of Hysteria in women was treated with a very intimate and popular massage, applied by a qualified physician. Anyway, with the advent of electricity, an ingenious doctor creates a device to give his aching wrists and hands a bit of a rest. Thus, the personal vibrator was invented. Maggie Gyllenhaal, Hugh Dancy, and Rupert Everett all enjoy themselves immensely, in this naughty and tongue-in-cheek British comedy. The Lady Usually associated with fast paced action movies, French director Luc Besson turns his attention towards the genre of the political bio-pic, but he doesn’t make a very good film. Besson presents the true story of the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, the woman who spearheaded the fight for democracy in Burma. Besson’s movie lacks tension, pacing, and interest. If boredom doesn’t kill you first, you might learn some interesting facts about Aung San Suu Kyi, but, Michelle Yeoh’s portrayal of her is so noble it drives you crazy. Aung San Suu Kyi deserves much better than this.

Local News Govt Told to Focus on New and Renewable Energy The Indonesian government should focus on developing new and renewable energy sources to reduce the country’s dependence on fossil-based fuels, observers said. The discovery rate of oil reserves was once higher than the production rate, the former governor of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Maizar Rahman, said at a monthly discussion with editors-in-chiefs here on Thursday (18/4). “But now the production rate is higher than the discovery rate. It is getting more difficult to discover oil reserves. Indonesia now belongs to a group of oil poor countries,” he said. Also addressing the discussion were energy observer Komaidi Notonegoro of ReforMiner Institute, A Qoyum Tjandranegara of the Committee of the Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Body (BPH Migas), M Harun of state oil and gas company PT Pertamina, and Satya W Yudha, a member of the House of Representatives Commission VI from the Golkar Party. Noting that fossil energy consumption continues to increase, Maizar said competition to find new oil reserves will increasingly become more difficult and oil prices will continue to rise. Indonesia has abundant sources of new and renewable energy, such as solar, geothermal and

hydroelectric energy, that have not been developed, he said. “The results of a study suggest that solar energy will become the world`s main energy in the future. Therefore, the government should now focus on new and renewable energy, particularly solar energy,” he said. Sharing Maizar`s view, Komaidi said Indonesia’s oil reserves now account for 0.31 percent of global reserves. With oil production recorded at 0.31 percent and consumption at 1.48 percent, Indonesia has an oil deficit of 0.26 percent. Between 2001 and 2010, Indonesia saw its oil reserves declining 1.8 percent and production 3.65 percent per year, while its oil consumption rose 1.35 percent per year. The government should have the ability to provide fiscal and non-fiscal incentives to investors in developing new and renewable energy he said. Meanwhile, Qoyum Tjandranegara said the low prices of domestic fuel oils were responsible for poor development of new and renewable energy. The country’s dependence on fossil-based energy now reaches 97 percent of overall energy consumption, Satya Yudha said. “Only 3 percent originates from new and renewable energy. It’s time to switch to new and renewable energy,” he said (April 12th 2012)

Fisherman Blast Premier Dive Sites Off Indonesia, Decimating Coral Sites hit by illegal fishing include some in Komodo National Park, a 500,000-acre reserve in eastern Indonesia that is most famous for its Komodo dragons - the world’s largest lizards - and its remote waters that burst with staggering levels of sea life. Coral gardens that were among Asia’s most spectacular, teeming with colorful sea life just a few months ago, have been transformed into desolate gray moonscapes by illegal fishermen who use explosives or cyanide to kill or stun their prey. Dive operators and conservationists say Indonesia’s government is not doing enough to keep illegal fishermen out of the boundaries of the national park, a U.N. World Heritage site. They say enforcement declined greatly following the exit two years ago of a U.S.-based environmental group that helped fight destructive fishing practices. Local officials disagree, pointing to dozens of arrests and several deadly gun-battles with suspects. Michael Ishak, a scuba instructor and professional underwater photographer who has made hundreds of trips to the area, said he’s seen more illegal fishermen than ever this year. The pictures, he said, speak for themselves. When Ishak returned last month to one of his favorite spots, Tatawa Besar, known for its colorful clouds of damselfish, basslets and hawksbill sea turtles, he found that a 500-square-meter (600-square-yard) section of the reef had been obliterated. Many smaller patches were destroyed elsewhere at the site. “At first I thought, ‘This can’t be right. I must have jumped in the wrong place,”’ he said, adding he swam back and forth to make sure he hadn’t made a mistake. “But it was true. All the hard coral had just been blasted, ripped off, turned upside down. Some of it was still alive. I’ve never seen anything like it.” The national park’s corals are supposed to be protected, but fishermen are drawn there by locally popular fish like fusiliers and high-value export species like groupers and snappers. Fishermen can be seen in small wooden boats, some using traditional nets or lines. Others are blasting sites with “bombs” - fertilizer and kerosene mixed in beer bottles.

He said they are “quite simply fishing empty this World Heritage Site.” Sustyo Iriyono, the head of the park, said problems are being exaggerated and denied claims of lax enforcement. He said rangers have arrested more than 60 fishermen over the past 2 years, including a group of young men captured last month after they were seen bombing fish in waters in the western part of the park. One of the suspects was shot and killed after the fishermen tried to escape by throwing fish bombs at the rangers, Iriyono said. Three others, including a 13-year-old, were slightly injured. “You see?” said Iriyono. “No one can say I’m not acting firmly against those who are destroying the dive spots!” He added that the park is one of the few places where fish bombing is monitored with any regularity in Indonesia, a Southeast Asian nation of more than 17,000 islands. Divers, however, say enforcement has dropped dramatically since 2010, when the government reclaimed sole control of operations. For two decades before that, The Nature Conservancy, a U.S.-based nonprofit, had helped the government confront destructive fishing practices there. “No-take zones” were created, protecting spawning areas, and coastal areas also were put off-limits. Patrols using park rangers, navy personnel and local police were key to enforcement. In 2005, the government gave a 30-year permit to Putri Naga Komodo, a nonprofit joint venture company partially funded by The Nature Conservancy and the World Bank to operate tourist facilities in hopes of eventually making the park financially self-sustaining. Entrance and conservation fees - just a few dollars at the time- went up several tenfold for foreign tourists. With around 30,000 local and international visitors annually at the time, that would have given the park a budget of well over $1 million, but outraged government officials demanded that the funds go directly into the state budget. The deal collapsed in 2010, when Putri Naga Komodo’s permit was yanked.

Breathing through tubes connected to air compressors at the surface, young men plunge to the bottom and use squeeze bottles to squirt cyanide into the coral to stun and capture fish. Dive operators are increasingly seeing dead fish on the sea floor or floating on the surface.

“They had no right to directly collect the entrance fees from the tourists,” said Novianto Bambang, a Forestry Ministry official. Dive operators and underwater photographers have asked The Nature Conservancy and similar organizations like WWF Indonesia, to return to Komodo and help with conservation efforts there.

“The biggest problem is that fishermen seem to be free to come into Komodo, completely ignoring the zoning and resource use regulations,” said Jos Pet, a fisheries scientist who has worked with numerous marine conservation groups in the area in recent years.

Nature Conservancy representative Arwandridja Rukma did not address that possibility, saying even though it was heartwarming to see so much concern about this “national treasure,” it only takes part in projects at the invitation of the government. (April 21st 2012)

Ten Men, Woman Publicly Caned in Indonesia for ‘Immorality’ under Islamic Law Ten men and a woman have been publicly caned for gambling and indulging in immoral behavior under the Islamic law that is followed in the conservative Aceh province of Indonesia, according to the authorities. A Prosecutor’s office official said nine people convicted of gambling were caned four to 12 times. He revealed that two others, a man and woman were caned nine times after being found in a compromising position by local residents. All of them were beaten in front of dozens of people at a field in Langsa, the capital of East Aceh district, after being tried by the local Sharia Court. Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation of 240 million people, has a policy of secularism, but it allows highly conservative Aceh province to implement a version of Sharia Islamic law. (April 21st 2012) Densus 88 Anti-Terror unit Arrests Terrorist Suspects in W. Java Police anti-terror unit Densus 88 have again arrested four terrorist suspects in Purwakarta, West Java on Tuesday (17/4). “The four are known by their initials as UK alias Rian alias UP, AM, HI alias BI alias Nana, and ES,” National Police head of public information division Senior Commissioner Boy Rafli Amar said here on Wednesday (18/4). “UK was arrested for his involvement in hiding Kamaludin, who is on the police wanted list, and for delivering ammunition to Medan,” he said. AM, meanwhile, was involved in a terrorist cell led by Ujang that had carried out a “fa`i” (robbery to raise funds) in Kaliasin, Cikampek, and shot a retired army officer. HI and ES were arrested for involvement in the fa`i operation. The evidence confiscated included an FN pistol, an axe, a dagger, a sword, two knives and a mask. Densus 88 also arrested three alleged terrorist network members in Purwakarta, West Java, at 5am, identified as U, AG and D. The three were arrested following other arrests made in Bima on Friday, April 13. One of the alleged terrorists arrested in Bima, identified as Kamaludin, had fled as far as West Java. Kamaludin is one of the figures who played an important role in the training of terrorists in Aceh in early 2010. He was arrested in Bima along with suspect Drg YNI, Boy said. (April 18th 2012) Kalimantan Elephant Population Continues to Dwindle The population of Kalimantan elephants continues to dwindle as a result of damage to protected forests, an environment official said. “If the protected forests continue to be cleared away and change their function, we fear the elephants will become extinct. Therefore, we hope two district heads, whose jurisdiction cover the protected forests, will always guard them,” the head of the East Kalimantan provincial environmental board, H Riza Indra Riadi, said here Saturday (21/4). The Nunukan and Malinau district heads played a decisive role in conserving the protected forests, particularly those belonging to the Heart of Borneo. The forests, which are home to the endangered elephants, were under threat from coal mining and oil palm plantations, he saidf. Riadi noted that much forested land in a number of areas in East Kalimantan has been cleared to make way for coal mining and oil palm plantations. The population of Kalimantan elephants was estimated at 20 to 80 in 22 villages in Sebuku sub-district, Nunukan district, he said. Riadi added that five of the 22 villages were frequently visited by Soliter elephants. The villages are Sekikilan, Semunad, Rembalang, Salang, and Kalun Sayan. He has asked the governments of the two districts to stop issuing operating permits to plantation and mining companies in the protected forests, including those in Malinau, Nunukan, Kutai Timur, West Kutai and Berau.

Earthquake Measuring 6.6 Rattles Indonesia

Australian May Face Death Penalty in Bali

A strong earthquake felt in Indonesia Saturday (21/4) morning was measured at a magnitude 6.6 by seismologists in the United States, a U.S. agency said. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries from the scene and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii said there did not appear any risk of a tidal wave. The U.S. Geological Survey said in a written statement the quake was centered near the north coast of Papua, Indonesia, about 51 miles south-southeast of the town of Manokwari in Irian Jaya. The shaking began around 10:17 a.m. Indonesia time and was followed by a sturdy 5.8 aftershock, the USGS said. (April 21st 2012)

The office of the prosecutor in Bali has confirmed it has accepted a police dossier in which an Australian man accused of drug offences may face the death penalty. Bali prosecutor I Gusti Gede Putu Atmaja says Edward Norman Myatt will face charges under three articles of law for trafficking and possession. The 54-year-old was caught in February at Bali airport and is alleged to have carried 72 capsules in his stomach containing mostly hashish and some methamphetamine. The prosecutor says the file on the case should be handed to the court within a week.Customs officers say they noticed Myatt acting strangely when he arrived at the airport. He was detained and driven across town for a medical examination. When the car stopped in traffic, however, officials allege Myatt jumped out and tried to escape. He was re-captured and allegedly found to have the drugs in his stomach. Another Australian man, Michael Sacatides, was sentenced to 18 years in prison last year for importing 1.7 kilograms of methamphetamine. (April 24th 2012)

Six provinces in Indonesia continue to have the nation’s highest maternal mortality rates, at over 50 percent. “The six Indonesian provinces are North Sumatra, Banten, West Java, central Java, East Java and South Sulawesi,” said Deputy Provincial Operations Expanding Maternal and Neonatal Survival (EMAS) Evodia A Iswandi here, Monday (25th April 2012). To lower the high figure of infant and mother deaths during childbirth in these six provinces, The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is launching the EMAS program. The joint program is being organized by the USAID and the Indonesian Health Ministry starting from 2012-2016 in the six province of Indonesia with the highest maternal mortality rates. As an illustration of the high mortality rate, West Java province has an average of two to three mothers who die each day, and nine to 10 newborns die each day. According to Evodia, one of the chief causes of maternal death during childbirth or after birth is due to heavy bleeding. While infant mortality is mostly a result of the delayed medical assistance during childbirth, a lack of nutrition for infants is also a reason for the deaths. The EMAS program in South Sulawesi is to be carried out in four districts, Pinrang, Sidrap, Gowa and Bulukumba. (April 25th 2012) Bali Imports 11.60 million US Dollars worth Commodities Bali imported different kinds of commodities worth 11.60 million US dollars in January 2012, an increase of 19.01 pct than those in December 2011 worth only 9.75 million US dollars. “But in the same month the year earlier, the imports declined 43.04 pct, as the January 2011 imports were worth 20.37 million US dollars”, head of the Bali Central Board of Statistics (BPS) Gede Suarsa said in Denpasar Monday (16/4). February 2012 imports were worth 15.1 million US dollars, a 30.11 pct increase from those in January 2012 or up 77.22 pct from February 2012 with 8.5 million US dollars. The imports in the first two months of 2012 came from Thailand 21.76 pct, followed by Singapore 17.86 pct, Hong Kong 11.44 pct, China 7.26 pct and the US 11.35 pct. Gede Suarsa said further that the main import commodities included mechanical products 31.06 pct, jewelry 1.3 pct, power equipment 9.23 pct, leather goods 2.59 pct, motor vehicles 2.59 pct, and others 3.13 pct. Gede Suarsa also said that Bali`s imports mostly comprised production equipment with a much lower value compared to Bali`s exports worth 44.06 million US dollars in the same month. (April 10th 2012)

Families of Slain Workers Demand Autopsies Amid Organ Trafficking Fears The families of three migrant workers killed in Malaysia are demanding autopsies be performed on their loved ones following claims they were the victims of organ trafficking. The bodies of the trio - Abdul Kadir Jaelani, 24, Herman, 28, and Mad Noor, 33 - were this week returned to their home town of East Lombok, three weeks after they were found dead in Malaysia, each with gunshots. Suspicions over the motives for their killing arose when two family members of victims saw the conditions of the bodies, which included stitching. “I saw the conditions of the three bodies and I don’t have the heart to describe them,” said Firman, Herman’s brother. “It was terrible. I’m sure their eyes, hearts and kidneys were taken.” The families demanded that autopsies be performed on the bodies to determine whether any organs had been removed. “We are ready if an autopsy is to be done so that we can get an explanation on the causes of my son Herman’s death,” said Maksum, Herman’s father. “For us, their death will not be in vain if the autopsy can reveal the circumstances that other migrant workers from Lombok, or maybe workers from other regions or countries, have been experiencing in Malaysia.” The families called on the support of the national government to investigate the case to prevent others from falling victim. Abdul’s mother, Inaq Salihi, urged the government to take immediate action. “The government has to settle the problem. He was my favorite son. I loved him, and he loved me too. The clothes I’m wearing now were from him,” she said, sobbing. Mad Noor’s brother said his family also wanted answers and that they would support the autopsy. Meanwhile, Fitra Yanti Binti Ali Mali, an Indonesian migrant worker in Saudi Arabia, is returning home after murder charges against her were dropped. Fitra was accused of killing her employer’s son and spent three months in jail. She denied killing the 4-year-old boy, claiming that he drowned in a swimming pool. Antara reported that she was released after Indonesian diplomats convinced prosecutors that there was insufficient evidence to prove the murder charge. (April 20th 2012)

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

Two Birds in the Bush

Perhaps, like me, you’ve noticed that there are a lot more birds in your garden these days. It only recently occurred to me that this is because they may be running out of choices. Rampant development all over Bali is covering wildlife habitat with villas, roads, shops and restaurants. I imagine being a bird here in Ubud these days, cruising along among the kite strings and looking down at gridlock traffic and concrete where green growing things used to be and wondering where to land. The rivers with their steep, jungled banks must look very attractive to a bird in the air.

Trees and bushes with plenty of foliage provide shelter for nesting, so don’t let the gardener cut everything back, or disturb nests. Reduce pesticides to ensure there are lots of insects to feed on. Birds eat insects, fruit and nectar, depending on the species, so plant accordingly. A list of plants attract birds can be found at http://burung.org/en/BArU/ plant-that-attract-birds.html

Those who venture deeper into the island’s mountains and forests are often rewarded with sightings of up to 50 species of bird. Drongos, Flycatchers, beautiful orange Minivets, Monarchs, Golden Whistlers, Bee-eaters, Glossy Starlings and Barbets are among the many gorgeous birds seen in the interior of Bali, particularly the West Bali National Park.

The rivers with their steep, jungled banks must look very attractive to a bird in the air. “Bird watching is developing rapidly in Indonesia, as it is worldwide. There are now many bird watching clubs based in universities and schools, and bird photography is becoming a very popular pastime. Burung Indonesia’s mission is to increase awareness and interest among Indonesians, including children, about wild birds. Some species in Bali have declined due to habitat loss, poaching for the bird trade (many ending up in tiny cages) and chemical use,” notes Farquhar. Ni Wayan Sumadi agrees. Su was an avid birder as a child, and in 1990 teamed up with Victor Mason to learn all she could about Bali’s birds. She understudied with Victor for three years and learned the English names, and since then has become one of the most respected bird guides on the island.

I live on such a river bank and beside me are three likeminded neighbours, so between us we have a good long stretch of natural ravine frontage where no chemicals are used and no garbage is dumped. We’re rewarded with a ringside seat of Bali’s wildlife – birds, snakes, monitor lizards, squirrels, musang and the occasional porcupine or rogue macaque that lost a dominance battle in the Monkey Forest. “It’s very true that the rivers of Bali are important reservoirs of biodiversity,” agreed Farquhar Stirling, a lifelong birdwatcher. “Fortunately, the river gorges are so steep that they are unlikely to be disturbed by development.” “Wild birds enrich our lives and are an essential part of the natural environment. Bulbuls, Sunbirds, Munias, Spotted Doves, Magpie Robins, Bushchats, Flowerpeckers, Tailorbirds and Prinias enliven many gardens in Bali. And it’s now being realized that birdsong is not only beautiful to hear, but also has therapeutic value, in providing a link to the natural world that we’ve lost in our urban lives.” Farquhar is a member of the Board of Trustees of Burung Indonesia, an affiliate of the UK-based conservation group Birdlife International. Burung Indonesia (www.burung.org) focuses on protecting habitats and educating people about wild bird life in Indonesia. Its program ‘Birds Around Us’ aims to encourage the protection and enjoyment of wild birds in urban areas of Indonesia. Members meet with young people, students, developers and home owners to inform them on sustainable organic methods of cultivation with the intention of making gardens, golf courses, housing developments and apartment complexes hospitable to birds. If you’ve ever wondered about that tiny bird hovering in front of your hibiscus flowers, you need Victor Mason’s excellent little guide ‘Birds of Bali’ with charming water colour illustrations by Frank Jarvis. Breezily written and free of technicalities and Latin taxonomy, it’s the perfect companion for an afternoon in the garden or an early morning walk in the sawah. According to Victor, about 100 species of birds are likely to be seen in Bali by the casual observer, with another 200 species occasionally seen or visiting from other islands. It’s delightful to have a garden full of birds, but no self-respecting avian is going to visit a Zen-like, manicured garden if there is a nice jungly patch nearby. You can encourage birds to visit and stay in your garden by leaving some wilderness where they can shelter to feed, rest and mate among the trees and plants. A source of water attracts birds, too – they drink from and bathe in ponds, bird baths and even swimming pools.

“Yes, the Java Sparrow used to be abundant here and is now rare, due to poaching for the bird trade,” she told me. “Crows used to be very common, too, but they’ve almost disappeared. People used to shoot them, but that is much less frequent now.” Victor and Su co-founded Bali Bird Club in 1990, and one of their earliest activities was to visit villages to talk to people about the importance of birds, and posting signs discouraging shooting. Su has been conducting bird watching tours for almost two decades now. “I see more birds now than before -- maybe that’s because I know what I’m looking for, and maybe because there is less shooting of birds now. Balinese have a better understanding of nature, and many of them believe that killing birds is not good karma.” Su has spent the past 20 years introducing travelers to the wealth of Bali’s bird life. She wants to spend the next 20 years engaging Bali’s children in their avian heritage. Su is optimistic about the future of Bali’s bird populations. “There aren’t many predators in Bali, such as raptors. People with guns and poachers for the bird trade are the most serious threat to our birds. And the government is now supporting the use of natural fertilizers instead of chemicals. The chemical load doesn’t seem to be toxic around Ubud. If we can still see dragonflies and butterflies then we know that insects are not being affected by chemicals, and healthy insects are food for the birds.”

it’s not unusual to see about 30 different species around Ubud Su’s popular tour, the Bali Bird Walk, has delighted thousands of visitors over the past two decades. The three and a half hour walk starts at Murni’s Warung at Campuhan Bridge and winds through the rice fields and ravines north of Ubud. Sightings depend on the season and location, but it’s not unusual to see about 30 different species around Ubud. Book a tour at su_birdwalk@yahoo.com or www.balibirdwalk.com or by calling 081 239 13801. Su also designs custom tours for serious birders in the mountains on request. Bali’s only truly endemic bird, the Bali Starling, is at last making a comeback after being poached to the brink of extinction only a decade ago. About 125 are living and breeding in the wild in community-managed programs under the NGO Friends of the National Parks Foundation on Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan. Poaching from the West Bali National Park is declining as increasing numbers of captive-bred Bali Starlings are appearing on the market.

I don’t have to go tramping through the hot sawah to see birds. Lounging on my old Java day bed with a pair of light binoculars and Victor’s book, I clock up my own little list. A Java Kingfisher preens on the fence in my garden. White headed munia have turned up in my yard for the first time. I often hear the booming cry of Coucals and the repetitive descending song, even at night, of the Plaintive Cuckoo. Better two birds in the bush than one in a cage, any day.

Deus ex Machina (10 May) The Rotary Club of Canggu are holding a fellowship evening and invite you to come along for a super fun evening at this popular haunt. There’s a welcome cocktail, canapes, live music, raffles and a live auction of artwork. The Rotary Club in Canggu has been active in the community since its inception in 2010 and they have been supporting local projects concerning children, families, education and the environment.

Thursday evening though will be about lots of socialization, fun and of course making some money for their good causes. Cost

I don’t know if readers are familiar with TED and its concept. It is basically a forum in which to share ideas which can be shared on their website. What is very exciting is that this year’s event will be live here in Bali. TEDxUbud will combine live speakers and TEDTalks videos from the main TED conference. The purpose is to create a platform for international minds and expose the audience to ideas that are actively shaping the world, connect people across the disciplines and help shape a sustainable future for Indonesian and the rest of the world. This event will feature a selection of leading visionaries and storytellers, showcasing their ideas worth spreading. The theme for this event is ‘Threads of Change.’ One of my favourite speakers is Sir Ken Robinson who speaks openly and honestly about the plight of education today, a topic close to my heart. You can see his speech on the website of TED.

From their centre in Denpasar they provide physical rehabilitation as well as an Education and Life Skills program for children with disabilities. A mobile team also travels to villages to bring services to people with disabilities in remote and rural areas. At the bazaar there will food and drinks, stalls selling accessories made by some of YPK’s clients as well as paintings, clothes and craft items produced by the Dharma Lestari group - a collective of artisans with disabilities from Klungkung. There will also be performances from the students in the YPK Bali Education and Life skills program. The money raised through the bazaar will go directly towards the purchase of home aids and equipment for vulnerable and elderly people with disabilities so they can live safer, healthier and more independent lives in their own homes. This will also be a great day out for the whole family and another opportunity to make a difference to the lives of these people.

University

with Mother’s Day in Australia. Is there a more popular restaurant/café in Bali? I doubt it. It does not seem to matter what time of the day you pass by and their car park at front is double parked and the surrounding street full as well. Biku is open for breakfast [Poached Egg on cheddar and chive buttermilk scones or Potato Cakes, Scrambled Eggs, Smoked Salmon and Wilted Spinach with a chive béarnaise], lunch [beer-battered Fish + Chips], dinner [Marinated Balsamic Chicken Breast] and any time snacking in between [those Aussie specials of a beef pie or even a sausage sandwich]. This original and unique ‘tea house’ on Raya Petitenget, Kerobokan, is particularly famous for their High Teas, of which there are many different styles, even an Asian one. A special High Tea [pictured] will be the main feature on Mother’s Day. I was always amazed at the history of the Limited Edition Tea Collection at Biku. One such tea was called Pu Erh. The ‘brick’ of aged tea was brought to Bali in 2004, and kept ever since in special conditions that would do a Bordeaux 1st Growth Lafitte proud. This tea is from the Yunnan province in China and underwent an aging and fermentation process not unlike that Lafitte. It is served in the traditional ‘gong-fu’ method. To read about the preparations and conditions to comply with this on the internet sound almost as complicated as open heart surgery! For Mothers’ Day Biku is offering a very special tea blend, as well as a special ‘Cookie for Mum’.

Mozaic, the internationally acclaimed restaurant in Sanggingan, Ubud, has now officially announced the appointment of Renaud le Rasle as their new Chef de Cuisine. Many will remember his stint at Ubud Hanging Gardens a few years ago before departing for Jakarta’s Riva at The Park Lane. The previous Chef de Cuisine at Mozaic, James Ephraim, is to head up the new Mozaic Beach Club at the end of Jln. Batu Belig, Kerobokan. This new restaurant is now due to open July 2012.

Bali Buddha has been a popular haunt in Ubud ever since opening. It is hidden away in a side street yet by late afternoon most days, the shelves are empty. They make and stock many high fibre breads and very healthy organic cakes. Their Pumpkin Bread has been a favourite of mine for years. But the café upstairs is also popular and on the road to Canggu, Raya Br. Anyer, there is been another branch of Bali Buddha offering all of the same product, starting with early morning breakfasts that vary from the very healthy [organic fruits, muesli and things and their Bali Buddha Special of aubergine spread, sun-dried tomatoes, onions and kalamata olives on a bed of rucola] to the mid range chicken curry pie and the ultimate naughty English breakfast of eggs, sausages, bacon and baked beans. Daytime snacks include organic chicken burgers, and their Gourmet Vegetarian Burgers [your choice of bean, tofu, pumpkin or tempe]. Mains can be Enchiladas [eggplant and sprouted almonds wrapped in corn tortillas topped with black bean salsa], Vegetarian Nasi Campur or a Curry of Tofu and Cashew with chickpeas and vegetables. The healthy alternatives! Falafel is a healthy option on Jln. Dhyana Pura, Seminyak’s late night bar street. Falafel

A leading trend & lifestyle accessories export company located in Mas, Ubud, is looking for an energetic and talented individual for the following position :

could almost be considered a pseudo meat ball, made from crushed chickpeas and fava beans, rolled into a ball then deep-fried. The finished product resembles the meat variety but the crunchy taste could not be more different. It was originally from Egypt but now popular throughout the Middle East and many other parts of the world. Not surprisingly Falafel the café sells falafel the snack. It is combined with lettuce and tomato and wrapped in a pocket of pita bread. Similarly presented is their Moroccan style Lamb or Chicken, also in a pita pocket. Traditional Wraps [rolled in grilled flatbread] include the Greek Gyros [strips of chicken breast], Souvlaki [lamb meat balls, Greek style], Mexican [Cajun flavoured chicken with corn and jalapeno] and an Asian Ginger Chicken [with sweet and sour cucumber, coriander, bell peppers and chilli sauce]. They also sell a few more western snacks [everybody does hamburgers] but the attraction here is those unique Mediterranean offerings. Open late for that after drink snack, or maybe a snack between bars.

Warung Taman, Ubud’s budget level Indonesian Chinese restaurant, has been popular

Qualifications :

with backpackers and other budget travelers for many years past. It has now moved from its long time home on Jln. Sri Wedari, which was in Taman, to a new smaller site on Jln. Jro Gedung, which is not in Taman but located in the adjoining banjar, whilst still keeping the Taman name. Many Cantonese type dishes including vegetarian with good taste, a major attraction for the majority of its customers who flock to Ubud on the yoga trail. Warung Taman has always been excellent value for cheap eating.

Warung Gecko is on Jln. Sri Wedari, Ubud, taking over the former home of Warung

Taman. It is in fact Wackel reborn and down-sized, which was formerly found on Jln. Hanoman, in Padang Tegal [for many years the home of Warung Tegal] Warung Gecko still offers many of the favourite German dishes which were served at Wackel including the simple Leberkaese [pork meat loaf] and Bratwurst [pork sausages], and one of the best Beef Roulade that I have ever had. Other favourites include Schweinbraten [roast pork] and a Chicken Schnitzel borrowed from the neighbouring Austria. Wackel was good value but the prices at Warung Gecko are even cheaper.

Igor’s is the latest Javanese pastry shop to set up in Bali, albeit from Surabaya rather than from the more common Jakarta source. The location is almost hidden on a tight bend of Raya Petitenget, Kerobokan. Behind the pastry display is a small coffee shop with both internal and outside terrace seating. No menu, just select from the shelves and cabinets. Igor’s pastries, breads and cakes do look different and seem quite innovative. Croissants may be French but at Igor’s they are stuffed with smoked chicken and egg, or beef and soft cheese, even a tiramisu! Danish Pastries were once Danish, but here topped with Black Forest from southern Germany. Pastry Rolls are stuffed with roulade of beef and your choice of egg or cheese, or maybe honey BBQ chicken. Small meals include a miniature Shepherd’s Pie made with chicken rather than lamb or a larger Baked Chicken and Macaroni. House specialty is their Sushi Roll Bread, seafood and greens rolled in a slice of whole meal bread rather than sushi rice and nori seaweed. Whilst another German touch is their Baumkuchen, something new for Bali although in Jakarta there are even Baumkuchen shops. It is a thin square slice of layered cake that could almost be called a dessert. At Igor’s the durian version takes pride of place, but they also offer a rich blood plum Baumkuchen. Many international names and images but overall it is still the heavier drier style of Indonesian pastry and bread, not the lighter more sophisticated variety found in Europe.

BAREFOOT & VEGETARIAN IN SINGAPORE By Tara Khandro Singapore, the city that is a country is a popular destination for anyone staying on Bali for a length of time. I journey to this refreshingly modern metropolis for work sometimes spending up to one month. I love to walk and the Singapore streets always eat my sandals. Upon the death of my shoes during my last sojourn I let my feet freely jalan jalan barefoot. Then I wondered: ‘Is walking barefoot illegal?’ The benevolent dictatorship of the “Lion City” maintains control with secret police who ghost about the streets looking for lawbreakers. If my feet suddenly began to jig on the streets I knew that I was breaking the ‘no dancing on the streets’ law. What about entering a restaurant shoeless? After conducting a random poll of MRT riders, I concluded my bare feet are legal. In the United States restaurants post signs: “No Shirt, No Shoes, and No Service”. Singapore restaurants show no signs. My bare feet are welcome. Dining out in Singapore is a national pastime with our without shoes. From the upscale restaurants to the hawker stalls the choices of where and what to eat seem infinite. Upon first acquaintance to a barefoot vegetarian it appears that the only dining options are overcooked vegetables, a vegetarian Subway Sandwich, fruit at a hawker stall or high priced salads with little content. However in the past decade Singaporeans are participating in sustainable longevity for themselves and the planet by investing in yoga studios, wellness businesses and opening up vegetarian restaurants. There are over 400 designated vegetarian restaurants on the island.

feels ‘at home’. The restaurant itself is simple, relaxed and elegant. The walls are adorned with 4,000 year old Indian art and a life like statue of Annalakshmi greets customers as they enter the door. Annalakshmi boasts many regulars at their daily lunch buffet, which changes daily. The alchemy of ingredients that compose the variety of North and South Indian dishes feels like medicine for the soul. At each buffet the guest has choices of a selection of soups, main dishes, breads, rice, chutneys, fruit and one kind of desert. The curries are mild and you can request more heat. A server will take your beverage order offering you lassi, Masala Chai, coffee, sodas and a variety of fresh fruit juices. Annalakshmi shares the secret of their culinary art success on their website: “When there is harmony, selflessness, joy and cheer in the kitchen devoid of anger, hatred and worries, the food thus prepared and served has the power of reaching the very depths and nourishing the entire being, rather than superficial satiation of body hunger. Such food makes our body—light, mindcalm and intelligence—dynamic.” At Annalakshmi food is the fundamental ingredient to sustain life as a continual creation, served with the understanding that ‘the guest is God.” CI YIN ORGANIC VEGETARIAN RESTAURANT 8 Smith Street “Chinatown Food Street” Lunch: 12:30-3:30 Dinner: 5:00-9:00 Phone: 62259026 Open 7 days a week Prices for main meals are s5.50-6.60.

The Chinese ‘eating houses’ offer ‘meat’ and ‘fish’ made from various plant sources. Restaurants compose their own meat while some meat is delivered by companies that specialize in creating goose, lamb, duck, mutton, chicken and fish. When you dine at a Chinese vegetarian restaurant ask if the meat of your choice has MSG. The varieties I have tasted in Singapore and Shanghai all taste like the real deal. Vendors in hawker centers serve soy puddings, soy and protein powder shakes fresh cut fruit as well as 20oz cups of wheatgrass for s1.50. (Compared to a shot glass of grass for 15,000-20,000IDR in Ubud.) In the three years that I have been a frequent visitor to Singapore I am delighted to witness a surge of new restaurants serving organic, pesticide free and raw cuisine as well as fresh juice concoctions different than what is available on Bali. I have sampled vegetarian fare on all parts of the island, yet if you are in Singapore for a limited visa mission, Chinatown and the Clark Quay area are only a few minutes cab ride from the Indonesian Embassy and offer plenty of places to stay from hostels to hotels. These areas are within walking distance of each other, as well as Raffles Place. These neighborhoods offer food, fun and entertainment. The Clark Quay area, by the river, is a popular spot for festivals, music concerts and flea markets. A plethora of yoga, fitness and wellness studios and natural healers abound in these areas. There is a movie theatre near Raffles Place and many pubs with giant screen televisions line the river. These neighborhoods also possess some of the best vegetarian restaurants loved by locals. I am reviewing four below. For a complete listing of vegetarian restaurants, log onto http://www. vegetarian-society.org/ ANNALAKSHMI #01-04 Central Square 20 Havelock Road. Near Clark Quay MRT Exit B and Chinatown MRT Exit E Phone: 81813407 Lunch Buffet: 11-3 Menu Dinner: 6-9:30 Also in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Chennai, Coimbatore, and Perth

Annalakshmi is a unique vegetarian Indian restaurant. It was founded in service not profit as the culinary arts branch of the Temple of Fine Arts. The Temple of Fine Arts is an artistic and cultural organization dedicated to serving the society through arts, music and dance. For 25 years Annalakshmi has served delectable North and South Indian vegetarian dishes by volunteer cooks, servers, dishwashers, and hosts who find joy in giving service through food. Annalakshmi posts no prices for their lunch buffet and dinner menu items. Instead they invite the customer to “Eat what you want and pay as you feel.” The lunch buffet is bountiful, a popular place for business meetings as well as celebrations so it is wise to make reservations. The staff is attentive, yet unobtrusive creating an atmosphere that

Stepping into Ci Yin is stepping into supreme serenity, especially after walking through the crowded tourist streets in Chinatown. This small 8 table restaurant feels and looks more like a Tibetan Buddhist temple than a restaurant. A beaming photograph of the Dalai Lama bows down before customers as they enter the door. A small stage hosts a spiritually charged Tibetan deity shrine standing as a sentinel for the lending library. The 8 tables are full with people quietly talking and enjoying their meals. At a table near the kitchen, Madam Wong, sits and chops vegetables , her husband, Seow Wee Hua is chef, and their son takes orders. Locals refer to this as the ‘Tibetan vegetarian restaurant’ not because the food is Tibetan fare, rather the family that owns and runs this small, popular restaurant has been practicing Tibetan Buddhism the past 15 years. Seow Wee Hua says his family practices Tibetan Buddhism because it is so “pure.” This purity is reflected in the atmosphere as well as in the food. The menu is written on a chalkboard, limited to a brown rice set meal, vegetarian Nasi Lemak, a noodle dish, soup, curry puffs, muffins and a desert. The family is Chinese and the sauces reflect their food heritage, minus the MSG. The brown rice and coffee are organic and the vegetables and fruit juices are pesticide/insecticide/ fertilizer free. The Singapore Health Promotion Board has given Ci Yin an award for 8 consecutive years because it offers less fat, less salt and fresher fruits and vegetables than other restaurants “increasing the life of Singaporeans.” The brown rice set meal includes 6 different kinds of vegetables. Each vegetable dish is its own character prepared raw, lightly steamed or stewed. The sauces are light with a hint of spice. The vegetables in the noodle dish such as shitake mushrooms and greens graciously absorb the sauce. The taste buds go wild as each ingredient stands on its own yet expertly blended with the sauce. Ditto review for the soup that is a meal. The plump rice flour muffin was light, soft, and moist and sweetened only with the chocolate chips. Past experiences of curry puffs from Indian and health food restaurants inform me not to purchase a puff. However, I was in need of some road food for my return trip to Bali. I was very hungry when I pulled out the puff and bit into a creamy curry pudding sweetened with carrots. The puff was crisp and flakyblissful! NUTRIHUB ORGANIC VEGETARIAN CAFE 46 Temple Street near Chinatown MRT exit A Phone: 67382746/92368402 Monday-Saturday 11AM-8PM Main Meals: 5.00-10.00

Vegan/raw organic Asian-Western fusion cuisine, retail store and cooking studio Free WiFi

My first barefoot adventure in Singapore was the month that I discovered NutriHub. I was craving fresh, raw food. 90% of NutriHub’s menu is living food and it is 100% organic. Like Ci Yi, NutriHub sells products such as nut butters, a variety of grains, oils, nut milks, dried fruits, seaweed and vitamins that are not available on Bali. Vinitha Ang, a registered nurse is the head chef and owner. In her profession she learned how diet played a key role in maintaining optimum health. As a cancer care nurse for 7 years Vinitha witnessed the miraculous medicine that is pure, organic fresh foods for these patients. Vinitha feels that “Good nutrition does not just add years to your life, but life to your years.” NutriHub serves a daily special set meal including a soup, main dish and salad. The extensive menu includes a variety of soups (Try the Pumpkin Bee Hoon with Wolfberries) sushi (Raw Fruity and Nut Cheese) pasta and ramen, detox and power drinks and a wide variety of nut milk drinks (The cashew, black current, and almond delights in its natural sweetness and rich, creamy texture) and deserts (vegan cake). My experience of the food at NutriHub is that it is alive with awareness and creativity sending one singing into the streets. (No, singing in the streets is not against the law). Nutri- Hub partners with Green Circle Farm, a biodynamic farm one-half hour from Singapore center for its organic vegetables. All ingredients are fresh and prepared on the premises. NutriHub makes their own flax seed crackers, dehydrated tofu chips (served w/chili apple sauce) whole meal bread and pretend meat. On this trip, the Wednesday special set meal (8.80) was red and brown rice with Nutri Vegan Otah, Kombu seaweed salad and sweet corn Quinoa soup. I was curious to taste the Nutri Vegan Otah. In Indonesia, Otah is a mixture of fish paste, shallots, garlic, green onions, egg, coconut milk, and sago flour or cassava starch wrapped in a banana leaf. When I visit Nusa Penida I partake in otah offered at the roadside food carts. Nutri Hub’s otah was the most flavorful I have tasted substituting tofu for the traditional mackerel flavored variety. The soup took me back to cold Andean mornings and all three dishes provided taste variety as well as an energized nutrition wallop. For desert I tried the tri colored Dragon Fruit With Konyac Jelly & Chia Seeds. The white dragon fruit sits on the bottom of the glass, middle layer is red fermented dragon fruit and pandan infused jelly on top. A pandan fruit looks like a cousin to the pineapple. Essence of the fruit is used to make Asian jellies and for me, rather tasteless. However NutriHub uses the leaves for this desert and for the first time I actually tasted a slightly sweet, juicy pandan. 8 TREASURES VEGETARIAN RESTAURANT 282A South Bridge Road Phone: 65347727 Opening Hours: Daily 11am-10pm If you desire the relaxed ambiance of an upscale Chinese, MSG free, non-dairy, high standard vegetarian restaurant 8 Treasures is for you. The restaurant encourages dining with friends by posting prices for each dish depending on the amount of people in your party. Prices per dish range from s8.00-25.00. The graciously accommodating staff take you through the encyclopedia menu boasting a large variety of mock meats. 8 Treasures offers Peking duck(yams and tofu) shark’s fin(tofu and seaweed) goose(soybeans and mushroom) sausage rolls (soybeans, mushrooms and carrots) and crisp mock ham that tastes, well, ‘hammy’.
