By The Coach

This Sporting Life TRIATHLON RACING 2016 9th Bali Triathlon The 2016 Bali Triathlon has moved from its traditional location in Jimbaran, to a new location in Sanur.Based at the Mertasari Beach which has hosted many sports events including the 2008 Asian Beach Games,Bali Beach Games and last years Bali Toughest, the Bali Triathlon combines swimming, running and cycling, will be held on August 14. The move from Jimbaran to the traditional seaside village of Sanur was done by the event’s organizers to accommodate the steadily growing number of participants and build on the festive atmosphere of the Sanur Village Festival held each August. In its new locale, olympic distance competitors will enjoy a 1.5 kilometer ocean swim in the tranquil waters off Sanur’s Mertasari Beach; a 40-kilometer cycle past rice fields and ancient Balinese villages; and a 10-kilometer foot race run down the streets of Sanur and Denpasar. The event is already amongst Indonesia’s most loved triathlons, famed for its iconic venue and unrivalled race experience. Even last year’s event was somewhat marred by poor route management and supervision, not withstanding that the Bali Triathlon has won honors including “Best Destination Triathlon” by Competitor Magazine in the US. This year’s triathlon will feature three competitions of varying difficulty: Olympic (Pool 1.5 KM, 40 KM Bike, Running 10 KM), Sprint (Pool 500 M, Bicycles 20 KM, Run 5 KM) and 5K Fun Run, and is set to attract 1,500 participants Sponsors Bank Mandiri and Herbalife committing again to supporting this year’s event. As Andam Dewi, country general manager of Herbalife said “This is the ninth year we have sponsored the Bali International Triathlon, and the second time we are title sponsor.After seeing the thrilling competition and enthusiasm of the athletes each year, we believe this year’s event will attract the interest of sport lovers across the country and internationally. We are very proud to return to support Bali International Triathlon 2016,” added Andam.

According to Reza, the international athlete enthusiasm is also propelled by the fact that more than 20% of HBIT participants last year came from overseas such as Australia, USA and UK. While other participants are Indonesian, both professional and sports fans that combine swimming, running and cycling from various areas of Indonesia.“As one of a government owned Bank, Herbalife Bali International Triathlon is one of the international events that should be promoted to develop the love of sports and nationalism,” Reza continues. Also included is 5-km Fun Run as part of its race day festivities. Flagged off at 7:00 am from a starting point on Mertasari Beach, the 5km race has proven in past editions to be a big hit among local resident and Island visitors opting for a more relaxed approach to a morning run than the highly competitive triathlon events held on the same day. And, while medals are given to the top finishers, a large

number of attractive prizes ranging from a new motorcycle to household electronics and appliances will be given to the 5km runners on a lucky draw basis.Tickets are only Rp. 130,000 each and cover a race bib number, race T-shirt, souvenir water bottle, souvenir race book and automatic entry in the draw for the motorcycle and a whole range of other prizes. Each person who successfully crosses the finish line will also receive a commemorative finisher’s medal. Discounts are available for groups of 10 or more entering the race. As well as Herbalife and Bank Mandiri, the Bali Triathlon is supported by Sanur hotels like the Prama Sanur Beach Bali Resort, the Maya Sanur and Puri Santrian.

“This is in line with our commitment to promoting a healthy lifestyle through proper nutrition along with exercise.

Bali, as one of the main world tourism destination will become a point of attraction itself for the triathlon athlete and fans.”

MUSIC MATTERS By Toby Greetings music pioneers and welcome to this new edition of Music Matters here in your local Bali Advertiser. First of all it seems we are living through a bad news period of history, mass shootings, terrorism, not to mention the drugs war and general destruction of the environment on ever increasing scales, so how nice it was to read the story about the Russian adventurer who flew round the world single handed in a balloon, and beat Steve Faucets record by an astonishing two days! Russian aviator Fedor Konyukhov endured lack of sleep, lack of food, and temperatures well below -50 yet still managed to finish and smash the record. It shows the best side of the human race, and what we can achieve and endure for true glory, so I just wanted to say bravo and cheers for giving us some good news for a change! I also wanted to take this opportunity to pay my respects to a very dear friend of mine Matthew David Jones otherwise known as MJ or the Batman of Bali who tragically lost his life in Cambodia. MJ has been featured in this column when he was managing a BBQ bar in Seminyak, and has been a partner in crime with me for many years. He will be missed dearly by those who knew him and I am asking all my readers to help me help his family return his body to the UK as we need to raise $5000 for them. Please if you can help in any small way send donations through to my PAYPAL account tobiasjbrown@rockfan.com or send me a message to other e-mail cantcookwonttry@hotmail.com and I will get back to you. OK back to the music, this issue but first let’s get our monkey face on as Music Matters proposes a mission to go deep into the land of the Orang-utan as we take a brief glance at the musical influence of Sumatera on Bali. Then we take a look at one well known and one not so musicians with aspirations of playing in Bali from the UK and Aussie. Sumatra is a place of wonder and mystery, one of Indonesia’s larger islands it has a rich culture and tradition all of its own.

The people are collectively known as Batak and have their own very unique style of music and even instruments. Batak people are the salt of the earth, they are kind giving and very musical in fact they collectively make up the majority of the musicians in Bali. Music is in the culture and they are exposed to it from a very young age, which is why I am planning an excursion over to Sumatra. A friend has told me of a little Irish bar deep in the wilds of the tropical jungle where local legends regularly play together. He informs me that the stage is small, the beer flows freely, and the atmosphere is electric. Known as Finn M’cools the bar complete with monkey serenade is a ramshackle affair located just off Lake Toba. All I have is a name and a description so now I will be taking a flight to see exactly what this bar and Sumatra’s music scene has done to Influence Bali and indeed the world, but sorry folks you will have to wait until a few issues time for that one. Now when I was a bit younger with a few more springs in my step I was lucky enough to smash tunes with a great mate of mine in a few bands, we annoyed neighbours, and caused mayhem. We weren’t very good yet we kept smashing out Greenday, and Offspring, until our fingers bled and our voices sounded like Dot Cotton after she had smoked a thousand packs of Benson and Hedges. The nights were full of many different drinks, and laughter. The days long and hazy spiralled into forever and like Bryan Adams quoted it was the summer of 69 but just 30 years later! Well unfortunately just like the song everyone went their separate ways but one of our number Tom Carne, had a side project called Hidden Appeal and they recorded some epic punk songs which were even featured in snowboarding DVD’s in the UK! But alas all good things unfortunately come to an end and Hidden Appeal disappeared off the collective radar that is until now, I am delighted to announce that Hidden Appeal are back and will be touring in the next few months around Cornwall. Then after some last minute planning they are also set on making it over to Bali for a whistle stop tour of the Emerald isle. I caught up with Tom for a chat about the bands success and what the plan is for Bali. TJB Hey man been a while how’s things? THC Yea great bro TJB So I hear on the grapevine that you guys are re-forming. THC Yea, it’s been forever but finally we are back in the saddle and making punk rock the way we used to

TJB Awesome, so you still pretty much the same outfit? THC yea still into Blink, Lagwagon, the usual and we still sound the same but obviously a bit slower than we were before. Also we have written a few new songs which are more laid back, but still have some tasty guitar tracks. TJB Great, what’s this about a rumour you may come to Bali? THC Yea if they will have us over there! Been a place I have wanted to visit we are thinking a trip to Australia as well, kind of like a whistle stop world tour of three places (he laughs! ) TJB Well I’m sure we would be happy to see you guys over here! THC Yea with Blink and Millencollin re-forming and touring we thought that we could bring some good old Cornish punk back on the scene. THC What’s the punk music circuit like over there at the minute do you reckon we can get some local support? TJB Well ... Yea Indonesia has some punk bands, Superman is dead, etc but really it’s more heavy metal or reggae over here, punk really never took off in the same way as back home. Go check out an Indo band called Burgerkill and see what you think. They are heavy but have some punk tones a bit like NOFX in places crunch guitar etc. TJB Any dates yet? THC Probably Christmas is the aim, but I’ll keep you updated.... TJB OK man well take it easy and catch you temple side. You can see a ton of Hidden Appeals Tracks on you tube and at their facebook page by just searching the name. Another artist who will be making a debut from Aussie is Anthony Porhay, dubbed the king of Karaoke he sings Pavarotti to Pendulum and is a one man karaoke machine, literally a human jukebox, He is set to play in and around Kuta in September and rumours are as he is a keen pianist you can catch him over at Zappas bar hanging around the grand piano. Ok guys be sure to keep checking the issues for my special report on Sumatra and next time I will be adding some summer listings so you can get the very best from the Bali music scene in the coming months. Until then, keep it live and make it matter. If you enjoyed this article or have any questions, concerns, or if indeed you are the illusive Chris Curtis please don’t hesitate to drop me a line, here to the Bali Advertiser, or alternatively to my direct email address tobiasjbrown@rockfan.com Copyright © 2016 Tobias J Brown You can read all past articles of Music Matters at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

Restaurant Review

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

Another Japanese! Ryoshi is Bali’s most successful chain of Japanese restaurants, now they have opened the 5th Ryoshi, at the Park 23 complex on Jln. Kediri, Tuban. Just a small outlet, it still has the standard Ryoshi menu but with a few special specials! Why is the sushi [and sashimi] at Ryoshi better than at other Japanese restaurants in Bali? The secret is no secret at all. They always have fresh sushi, and it is prepared ‘a la minute’. Now with many restaurants in the Ryoshi & Sakanaya chains and the resultant high food turnover that automatically follows, that most important ingredient for high quality sushi and sashimi, fresh fish, is a daily norm. The budget prices at Ryoshi always amaze overseas visitors! I always look with wonder at my regular lunch of the ‘Pisang’ sushi selection, still 14 pieces for $7. Ryoshi in the new Park 23 complex in Tuban has moved from its original site in front of The Bali Garden Hotel. As usual the seating varies from bar stools, normal western style tables [in natural wood] and chairs and traditional on the floor Japanese seating, the room is small and cosy! The menus at all Ryoshi restaurants remain the same, with the same pricing. It is a brilliant menu, well illustrated with colour pictures which takes the fear factor away from any first timer. Your appetizers can be very healthy such as Edamame [steamed green soy beans sprinkled with sea salt], Agedashi Dofu [deep fried silken tofu in a hot broth], Nasu Miso [eggplant sautéed with onion and sweet miso] or a Mushroom Steak [sautéed in soy and garlic]. Seafood snacks include a great Soft Shell Crab, cooked tempura style in rice flour batter, Kwaebi Kara Age [crispy fried whole shrimps in their shells with sea salt] or Tako No Kara Age, wonderful fried octopus, nice and crunchy. For something different, try the Cheese Mochi, sticky rice cakes with soy, butter and cheese, or the Maguro Panko, crisp fried tuna rolls with a tangy sauce. My most regular reason to visit Ryoshi is to enjoy a wonderful, clean, fresh plate of assorted Sushi for lunch. What could be healthier? At Ryoshi the offerings are of unbelievable value, my favourite is the Pisang combo, 12 pieces of sushi for about $7 [the maki roll is cut into three which makes 14 in my book]. Sushi to be at its best should be prepared fresh, just for you, and not pre-prepared hours or days before and refrigerated. It always tastes best fresh! At Ryoshi you can sit and watch it being made. It arrives

accompanied by a small dish, a lump of wasabi [often referred to as Japanese horseradish but tasting more like a hot mustard] on its side, and a little pile of gari [sweet thinly sliced young ginger] on the edge of the sushi board. Tip some soy [always on the table in a small jug] and edge some of the wasabi in, to your taste! Place a complete sushi in the soy/ wasabi mix so it can soak into the rice base, then with chopsticks, or even fingers if you must, eat and savour the exquisite taste. Follow with a small slice of the gari, and a sip of whatever you are drinking. My kind of lunch!

Most of the mains at Ryoshi are Yakimono, or grilled. Beef Teriyaki, or the Chicken or Fish equivalents everyone knows. A Teriyaki Hamburger is a touch of fusion, traditional ball of minced beef sautéed in Japanese wine and soy. Both Beef and Tuna can be had in sizzling Teppanyaki style, and then there are the Wagyu dishes; sirloin, rib eye or rump. For the lone diner there are always the rice dishes; Zuki Don [tuna marinated in sesame and soy] Sukiyaki Don [beef] Oyako Don [chicken and egg or Katsu Don [pork cutlets] all served in a bowl over rice, or the Noodle selection with a variety of Soba [buckwheat] and Udon [thick] noodles including the very healthy Nabeyaki Udon, the popular hot pot. Ryoshi Tuban has a few specials on offer at the moment, the top of the list, without doubt, is the sliced beef tongue over a bowl of rice, They also have two Curry Katsu & Rice dishes, with either chicken or prawn and Gyudon, another rice bowl but this one is topped with sliced beef and onion that has been cooked in dashi, soy and mirin.

Reviews that appear in Bali Advertiser are based on actual visits to the establishments listed, without the knowledge of the restaurants, and are not paid for by the individual restaurants.

When a place is as busy as the Ryoshi restaurants are you do not ever have to worry about freshness of produce. Ryoshi is one of Bali’s success stories, somewhere for an anytime snack or meal, alone or with friends.

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.

Update Hujan Locale Jln. Sri Wedari, Ubud is a touch of class in Ubud’s central district. They serve examples of fine Asian cuisine, a collection of unique dishes from Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, India and China. Always using very traditional recipes, and with all the correct ingredients, no substitutes. The restaurant is a part of the Sarong Group, made famous by Asia’s no. 1 exploring chef, Will Meyrick, who was, as of last week, again wandering through Asia, this time China, in search of more secret traditional recipes. In answer to the repeated requests by the many Bali visitors who suffer from Coeliac disease, Hajun Locale offers a special guaranteed gluten-free menu. You can start with a Dutch-Indonesian style Salted Cod Kroket, with chilli mayonnaise and chilli sambal. Buntut Goreng is fried ox-tail with sambal hijau and emping melinjo. Crispy Squid is with chilli jam, ginger flower and lemongrass. The Tuna Tartar is with watermelon, Thai basil, flat leaf coriander and sesame seeds, a chilli, shallot and lime dressing. One starter seen at every Will Meyrick restaurant is one that is served on a Betel Leaf, very Thai and a perfect start to any meal. The Hajun special is with prawn, heritage black pudding, fern tip, long bean and shredded coconut [pictured], you fold the leaf around the ingredients, and eat! Gluten-free mains include Salt-grilled Whole Fish with sambal matah, lemon and kemangi, Beef Rendang braised in coconut milk with those Sumatran spices or Beef that has been stir-fried with back bean, snow peas, asparagus, ginger and green shallot. The Crispy Calamari is with squid-ink rice, coriander aioli and salt fish chilli flakes. A favourite side dish to order is the Jagung Bakar, grilled corn with ikan asin butter, pork floss and andaliman butter. For those with no food allergies there is the full menu to explore.

Naughty Nuri’s has become one of those ‘must visit’ places for most Bali tourists, particularly those from Asia, in recent years. Now an authentic Naughty Nuri’s is opening in Bali’s south, on Jln. Mertanadi, Kerobokan. They will offer the ribs and margharitas as served at the original site at Sanginggan, north-west of Ubud, plus much more! They will also be offering a big and varied menu created by leading Bali food consultant Roland Lickert. There may even be a few rib dishes with different spices as well as many items not normally found on Bali menus. What a change for a new restaurant in Bali …here there is plenty of parking in their massive car park, directly behind the restaurant, accessed by a well-signposted lane. It promises to be a very professional operation! Stiff Chilli was a name well known to Bali restaurant goers 10-15 years ago. The original was located up on the Bukit on the way to Uluwatu, it had become the meeting place of choice for the island’s expat wives, and was busy every day. At that stage new Stiff Chilli’s were opening regularly. Owner chef Rodney Holt had progressed from his learning days at Sydney’s famous Italian eatery Lucio’s and as opening chef at both the Aman Nusa Italian restaurant and Ubud’s Begawan Giri to doing his own thing and it was readily accepted. With the sport-loving Rodney’s involvement in the Bali Sports Foundation the chain had recently been reduced to just one outlet, at Semawang Beach, south of Sanur. Now another has emerged on Jln. Hayam Wuruk in Renon [opp. Bali Bakery]. Judging by the prices you could call the place a student’s special! Chicken Pies @ Rp. 15,000, a sandwich for Rp. 25,000 [chicken schnitzel on ciabatta, and a variety of pasta @ Rp.25,000; Fettuccine [bacon, tuna, mushroom], Spaghetti [carbonara], Tagliotelli [chicken, basil pesto and cream], Fusilli [grilled vegetables]. There is even a Chicken Cannelloni at the same price. Pizzas @ Rp. 35,000 [with Speck, double smoked ham]. There are even a few Thai specials [Rodney’s favourite cuisine after his native Italian]; Chicken and Cashew, Chicken Red Curry and a Vegetarian Green Curry. And to finish one of those fruity gelatos is a must. Great value at Renon!

CasCades @ The Viceroy have been regularly bringing some of the great chefs of Europe & Asia to Bali as guest chef for their special functions and gastronomic dinners. Now for something completely different! From the famous Bibo Restaurant & Bar in Hong Kong, a presentation of 4 of their signature cocktails. They will have been modified by using local Balinese fruits and spices, and will be accompanied by matching canapés prepared by CasCade’s acclaimed Belgian Executive Chef Nick Vanderbeeken. The cost is just Rp.350,000++ [4 cocktails plus 4 canape sets], Saturday August 13, from 4.00 to 6.00 p.m. Reservations are recommended …res@cascadesbali.com.

Al Diwan is Bali’s latest Lebanese restaurant. There have been a few before, some of which were very good, but most have been and gone. This one is on Jln. Petitenget, Kerobokan, and has a very extensive menu. Start with a dip, a variety of Hummous; Tahini [chickpeas, tahini, garlic and lemon], Bilahme [with sautéed beef] or Smoked Eggplant. Sujuk are lamb sausages, and Makanek are spicy lamb sausages. Healthy and tasty are the Kibbee Meklieh, spiced lamb and pine nuts encased in a patty of minced lamb and cracked wheat. Their Mixed Grill combines the three different grills on the menu; lamb, chicken and spiced lamb. The seafood dishes are rather standard international except for the Samke Harra, baked and well spiced, covered with tahini. Quite a range of Lebanese desserts; Namoura [coconut cakes with syrup and pistachio], Qatayef [sweet dumplings stuffed with cream] and Mahlabiyeh, rose water flavoured corn flour custard. Little Green Cafe is vegetarian, as the name suggests. There are even a number of Vegan dishes on the menu, most of which are changed daily. Standard dishes always available include Veggie/Vegan Burgers, Hummus and Mexican Wraps, Vietnamese Spring Rolls and a popular Mexican Plate. Daily specials can include items such as a Soup of Roasted Beetroot, ginger and coconut or a Vegan soup of carrot and coriander. Salads can be Quinoa with kale and feta, Carrot, beetroot and raisin, or Tomato, black olive and cashew nuts. Very healthy is their Flax Seed & Fennel Coleslaw. This veggie haven, in a garden setting, is found in a small side street [Jln. Bidadari] just off Jln. Mertanadi, Kerobokan. Tidbit Food Factory is the latest in a long line of crazy restaurant names in Bali. Situated, upstairs, in the S bend on Jln. Pengosekan, Ubud, it serves a variety of Mediterranean dishes, which mainly means pasta. It has yet another international menu with a little bit of everything, but no titbits. A ‘titbit’ is a small tasty bit of food, a ‘tidbit’ is nothing! Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com NC/R/G-3 August 16

So I’m back from winter holidays……Despite a stint in a cooler climate bringing welcome reprieve from the constant Bali heat, a month of frosty evenings have added an unwanted frizz factor to my hair, there’s more than a muffin top where my waist once resided and what on earth are those overgrown caterpillars where my brows should be???

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE AUGUST 03 - AUGUST 17, 2016

Mars returns to the sign of Sagittarius and the New Moon in Leo, begins this fortnight. We are finally out of the Scorpio phase of this Mars cycle and the shift will be noticeable now; particularly when we get past the retrograde turning degree on the 23rd. The New Moon/Sun combination is in a trine (harmonious aspect) to Saturn also in Sagittarius. After giving its directives to the pair Saturn will move forward on the 13th and enters new degrees by the end of November. The fire signs are more masculine in nature and action oriented. Leo is all about creativity, flair, drama and ego needs, while Sagittarius seeks truth, justice and wisdom. It will search for the higher meaning to situations and life itself. Saturn however remains in square to Neptune in Pisces and a T-square to the Moons Nodes and this is also highlighted on the New Moon. Deception and lies and a strong desire to transcend the past, but perhaps not until the Truth is told and discernment used to move forward in a different way. The fated feel to events remain and karmic retribution maybe necessary. There’s a sense of enough is enough and there may even linger a sort of depression or deep soul sadness. Meditation or connection to your spiritual nature is highly recommended on those days when the chaos becomes too much or the World seems just a little bit too crazy. Take a vertical perspective rather than a horizontal one and you will have all the strength you need. NEW MOON 10 Leo 57 August 3, 2016 4:44 a.m.

If your travel plans have been in hold-up these past few months, you may find yourself suddenly departing for foreign lands. There could be work for you abroad or a health issue to contend with but whatever the reason you are sure to find some solitude in which to commune with your divine self. The Sun and Moon are promising romance or happier times with the children in your life, for some this may mean a stronger parenting role or perhaps teaching for others. Love may be the reason for travel as a stronger commitment is beckoning you to the beloved. Be wary of your own wilful nature as there are gifts waiting.

If you are ready for it this could be a very social month for you with lots of friends and community gatherings holding your attention. It seems that you have a lot to say but only on the most important subjects at this time and it almost feels like it’s your responsibility to direct communications to a higher vibration. The Worldly concerns may weigh heavily on your heart and mind and with this it’s a good idea to direct your attention inwards and regroup in order to be a better channel in the outer world when it’s called for. You may shock those closest to you with your ideas.

This New Moon hits up your home environment and could bring more financial responsibility your way. It seems that money is now ready to flow or you are willing to take the action required to get things moving with building, renovating, relocating and starting a family, or all of the above. There’s still a balancing between your own needs and those of everybody else and it is a good idea to question your own motives for your choices at this time. Remember to look at all of your options before deciding as you will need to live with the results of your actions, although saying that, there is magic in boldness.

Mars is a co-ruler of your sign and as it now moves into Sagittarius it will bring movement to your financial and material world. If monetary responsibility has been weighing heavily on you, you can now see a creative way forward and it will be through your vocational or worldly presentation. This is a time for risks taking as it will more than likely pay off. There are some interesting situations with the children in your life and they may be asking for a stronger role from you. How they see you interact with the community is very important for how they mould their own image and hold a place within it.

There’s forthrightness to the way that you speak and particularly within your one-on-one relationships. If teaching is your forte then this month promises to bring some deeply stimulating and inspirational ideas your way. For those in business or just starting, you might want to put all that creativity to work on your marketing projects and promotional networking. Your home life is very important to you and better to not be neglected in any way through all the work that you are involved in, in the outer world. Be mindful of the shrewdness of others when it comes to your dealings with other less reputable people in the career arena.

Saturn and Mars are doing their dance in your sign and it’s more like a slow waltz than ecstatic. The family responsibilities still weigh heavily on your heart and your standing or status in the outer world appears more contained. It’s important to remember that there are cycles to life and some of them grow us into stronger people, more able to carry the light for others. Being a catalyst for change within your circle of friends or larger community is the very thing that is bringing you the most growth during these highly transformative times. You could possibly be in a position to make those travel plans now.

It is through your work that you are able to express those things that mean so much to you and to add your personal touch to things. Your values are based on the importance of the individual and how they can shine within their own light and this includes you. Being a role model comes easily for you with your natural nurturing ability and this will be utilised during this month. This is the time to use your intellect to discern the opposing and confusing signals you are receiving from the outer World and perhaps a time to study something that will help you to do this with more confidence and ease. This is your month and this New Moon really kicks it into gear. You have an exceptional confidence exuding effortlessly during this fortnight and it will play right into that Saturn in Sagittarius’ ability to bring a stable base to your creative or artistic expression. Some of you are creating a new identity or role for yourself and this is the right moment for that. There may be old lovers returning to tempt you with their alluring ways; be ever mindful of manipulation however subtle it might be. Take care with your resources and your belongings and adopt a practical approach to all things concerned with money or finances. This New Moon highlights the need for solitude and to connect with the Divine. A sense of responsibility arises for your family and some of these may be in other countries or you yourself may be in a foreign country. You can communicate with them through the ethers more effortlessly at this time and you are highly attuned to those closest to you, even if they are a long way away. So much personal growth is happening for you during this cycle of Jupiter in your sign and it will bring with it continuing transformation, purging and new beginnings. There may be people from past relationships returning to your life.

Saturn is your planetary ruler and is a little obscured from view, as it is busy doing the deeper work on your internal world at this time. It is in harmony with the New Moon and Sun and promises an easier time of things this month. You can now show more effortlessly the depths of your soul as you go about this inner work. Ancient memories may rise to the surface and they may even bring with them meetings in your daily reality that will afford solidity to the remembrances. Be very discerning around events in the Worldly picture as there is much deception through the media aimed at creating fear. Relationships are in the spotlight during this New Moon and the month ahead and your personal interactions with others will be increased. Your role within these many and varied connections will obvious to you as you willing play your part. A softening of your value system is in place as your own intuitive edge is sharpened and so much compassion and understanding flows from you that you really need to be more careful with what you chose to take on as your responsibility and that which could be delegated to another. As always there are inspirational words coming from your mouth that easily catalyse events in the outer world.

C/Ci/I-09 Dec 15

The growth for you comes through your interaction within your most personal relationships and one-on-one experiences. Your role as teacher or mentor may bring people from an ancient past to your doorstep and you are now ready to take action in the outer World or on your vocational activities. This is the time to personally identify or to create a working role for you to take out into the World. A sudden change of mind could mean a different perspective on your relating ideals. Be very thorough when it comes to analysing the motives of others, without being too paranoid. Your sensitivities are heightened during these times, but still participate.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia by Bill Dalton

Healing in Bali by Richard Mann Healing in Bali identifies and describes the principal therapies and leading health practitioners on the island. In Bali, one can find spiritual, philosophical and physical healing practices that originate in Bali, Java, China, India, Thailand, Japan, other parts of Asia as well as Europe which have all been synthesized and fused into an exceptionally broad selection that incorporates traditional wisdom, scientific information and modern knowledge. Whatever your goal (relief from stress, migraines, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic ailments) or your budget (from Spartan to extravagant 5-star), you’ll find Healing In Bali full of ideas and insights. Fourteen of the fifteen leading healing centers profiled in the book are owned and operated by foreigners. Therapists working in the centers come from Bali, Indonesia and abroad. The author stresses that those included in the book are not the only ones on Bali that are reputable and effective. The Table of Contents lists the chapters, each dealing with one healing center. A map shows the location of the centers; another map indicates selected sacred places. There is no index, but a detailed 12-page glossary defines a broad spectrum of schools and disciplines at Bali’s leading centers from those specializing in “East & West” therapies and “The Hindu Contribution” to “Auriculotherapy” and “Iridology.” Each center’s atmosphere, accommodations, services and staff are described. Depending on the range of their services, some centers get more coverage than others. Taksu receives eight pages while Bali Botanica gets one. At the end of each chapter is listed the address, email, website and telephone numbers. This holistic guide would not have been possible without the support and enthusiasm of owners and managers of Bali’s healing sanctuaries as well as individual herbalists, Reiki masters, masseuse, food and yoga therapists, shiatsu and acupressure practitioners, etc. For this guide, the only one currently available, the author also interviewed spiritual leaders and traditional healers all over Bali. Chief amongst his informants were balian (shamans) - often just ordinary people but with unusual talents who have healed sickness and injuries here for hundreds of years. Balinese balian use more than 250 medicinal plants with amazing affect. Many of their cures have been prescribed in ancient palm leaf books or lontar. Among the surprises are a silent retreat in Tabanan, Tibet Sound Healing Meditation in Penestanan, Buffalo Horn Cupping Massage, Warm Stone Detox Massage at Dala Spa in Ubud, Bali’s First Shinto Spa in Kedewetan and the Bali Botanica Day Spa in Singinggan in which one liter of warm herbal oils are poured over the body’s main chakra points. If you’ve always wished for a healthy getaway, this book will inspire you to make plans or entice you to try new places and new treatments. It contains everything you wanted to know about holistic healing retreats across the island, but didn’t know where to look. Not just recommended for those seeking treatments, but also for tour guides and travel agencies with clientele looking for “alternative” vacations. Healing in Bali by Richard Mann, Gateway Books 2015, ISNB-978-602-863-0252, softcover, 150 pages, dimensions 20 cm x 22.5 cm. ** Obat Asli: The Healing Herbs of Bali The much-improved and augmented second edition of Obat Asli is the brainchild of Yayasan Bumi Sehat (Healthy Mother Earth Foundation), which runs a family health and birth center as well as various health projects in Bali. The book grew out of the organization’s ongoing research into culturally sensitive childbirth practices in which herbs were first collected and documented, the information checked and cross-checked, then photographed for illustration. Research was carried out in the Apotik Hidup (Living Pharmacy) that the yayasan maintains at their site in the village of Nyuhkuning south of Ubud.

Some of the leading health practitioners of Bali were consulted in the making of the book: ethnobotanist Dale Millard, Melanie Templer of Utama Spice, Brenda Richmond from Bali Buddha, the late June Whitson of Bali Herb Walks, Mangku Ketut Liyur of Love, Pray and Eat fame, Ayurvedic expert Dr. Sujatha Kekada Kuhappa, as well as traditional Balinese dukun (native healers). Knowledge was also gathered from the herbal classics Usada Bali by Ngurah Nala, Indonesian Medicinal Plants by Dr. A.P. Dharma and many other references. To the Balinese, medicinal plants are their natural island pharmacy. But as the author notes in her Introduction, the ancient healing traditions of Bali share many similarities with Javanese traditional medicine, India’s Ayurvedic medical system, the Hilot way of Filipino indigenous healers, traditional Chinese medicine and Hawaii’s Kahuna La’au healing way.

C/E/G-03 Aug 16

In alphabetical order, each herb is accorded two pages. On the left hand page is an illustration of the herb under which are listed its botanical name, Balinese name, Botanical Family, Indonesian name, Western name, then Filipino, Hawaiian, Sanskrit or Chinese name. On the right hand page is a description, where to find the herb, its properties, the parts used for medicine, its usage and methods of use. Though the plants are meant for primary care, a paragraph in the frontmatter’s “How to Use this Herbal” cautions against using the information in the book for prescriptions or cures for ailments. Herbs are very powerful companions in healing that can eat karma. Since they should be used with respect, the writer recommends that one learn from an experienced dukun or join Lilir and Westi on a 3-4 hour Bali Herb Walk through the back trails of the Ubud area foraging, touching, smelling, tasting and using medicine-based plants. The tonal reddish line drawings are excellent but less desirable of course than photographs that would have shown the plants in full color, making them easier to recognize. The colors of the plant however are provided in the description opposite the drawing. Anyhow, color plates would’ve added considerably to the manufacturing costs, perhaps forestalling the publication of this valuable and very usable volume.

C/E/I-03 August 16

The book’s usefulness would’ve been greatly enhanced had it included an alphabetical list of sicknesses and injuries such as “constipation,” “skin conditions,” “dandruff,” “headaches,” “coughs,” etc., indicating the page numbers of herbs that effectively treated those maladies. It’s an olfactory delight to read the physical book - an eBook version is not available. While turning the pages, the scent of cinnamon and cloves waft up to the nostrils. The aromatic paper used in the pages and for the cover was made by Saraswati Papers (www.saraswatipapers.com). Without this book, it’s unlikely that readers would have even heard of many of Bali’s rejuvenating plants and herbs. One would’ve thought they did not exist on the island. A brilliant addition to any alternative medicine library, the book’s wealth of information will help to answer many questions. Had Obat Asli been written five years ago, it would’ve saved a lot of people a lot of time, trouble and headaches. Now Bali-based naturopaths, herb enthusiasts and natural healing practitioners are able to find in one place an indigenous herb that will fill their needs. This comprehensive apothecary is all they’ll need.

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Richard Laidlaw: Bali Diarist

agency, from 1967 until I left the UK in 1969. I’ve worked for newspapers in Africa, Australia, Papua New Guinea and (briefly, on a work permit) the now defunct Lombok Times in Indonesia. In Australia I wrote for the Brisbane Telegraph, The Sunday Mail and The Courier-Mail (Brisbane). What was your specialty? Politics and economics. I found myself fairly quickly moved into editorial rather than reporting roles. I think that’s because I could spell and remember things. I amused myself with film critiques and long interrogatory lunches.

For Sale; Asian antiques from all over Asia (Japan, China, Khmer Thai, Indonesia, etc). Cabinet, statue paintings, textile, Buddha statue, etc. Private collection, bought when travelling. No reproduction. Contact 0813 3863 4748. No photos. Kerobokan. [057]

What stories are you the most proud of? Early on I investigated a few things that got into print. Enough said on that. The 1974 Brisbane floods and Cyclone Tracy in Darwin (also in 1974) produced some gutwrenching stories. But by the time I had any reason to be proud, I was organizing and managing rather than doing field work. What do you consider the pinnacle of your newspaper career? Being a senior editor and editorial writer on The CourierMail. Though editing an army newspaper at the same time, as a Reserve officer, was interesting and challenging, The Courier-Mail got me back up the sharp end, which I loved, and kept me fit.

Richard Laidlaw was born in Britain towards the end of World War II during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944. As a British army child he lived in many places, all of them with better climates than Britain’s. Later he attended school in Britain and went on to study economics, politics and history. Richard has always scribbled for a living, even in the military. For 30 years starting in the late 1960s, Richard worked for newspapers all over the world. He has had a home in Bali since 2005. Besides keeping up with his Blog, LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter accounts, Richard has penned the Hector’s Diary column in the Bali Advertiser for the past five years. What is the most vivid memory from your childhood?

Why did you choose a cross looking Cockatoo for your Hector’s Diary icon in the Bali Advertiser? Hector is a sulfur-crested cockatoo. His mates live anywhere from Maluku to New Guinea and Northeastern Australia. Does he look cross? He does squawk a bit. Why the name Hector? The original Hector is from a satirical column I wrote in the Brisbane Sunday Mail in the 1980s in Queensland. It was named not for the Greek hero of mythology but for the irritating, won’t-shut-up nature of those who hector other people. Some friends acquired a sulfur-crested cockatoo and called him Hector. He’s been with me in spirit ever since.

There are so many. I remember with delight the mellifluous, unamplified calls of the Muezzin from local mosques. Recordings played at maximum volume over bad sound systems did not then exist. When I was six, I remember seeing the sun set over the Nile at Wadi Halfa in Egypt. Flying from Britain to Sudan in those days was a three-day journey and Wadi Halfa was our second overnight stop. Sadly, it’s now beneath the waters of the Aswan Dam.

What are your strengths that help you in your column?

What did you enjoy doing as a child?

What kind of feedback do you get?

I’ve had books with or near me for as long as I can remember. Nowadays my Kindle is my travelling library. When I was at school I used to love writing essays. Landscapes and memories have always interested me too. Long walks were always fascinating and still are.

Some people send emails or leave me a little billet-doux on one of my social media platforms. Occasionally you get a phone call. People very rarely get in touch to sing your praises. They almost always do so to inform you that you are an unprintable idiot and sometimes to tell you that unexpected and unwelcome visitors are looking for you and will find you. It’s best to just ignore those who have been provoked to anger.

When did you first know that you had writing talent? When my first chief sub editor tore up my first story and told me: “That’s good. Now do it properly.” What are your hobbies/interests? Music, reading, writing - in that order of preference. I’ll listen to anything, except Hip Hop and Rap, from icky pop to hard rock. But I’m a classicist at heart. My favorite piece is Samuel Barber’s 1938 Adagio for Strings. It enunciates Doom and piques my inner melancholy. It’s a shame so many people know it only as the musical score from the movie “Platoon.” How did you wind up in Indonesia? I first visited Indonesia in 1999. My wife had been to Bali the previous year with family. It had always been a place we’d said we’d never bother with, but she came back from that trip with verifiable intelligence to the effect that the island was very far from being just Kuta. What books have made a lasting impression on you? Haruki Murakami’s 1Q84 is fascinating, as is Will Self’s Great Apes. And Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows. What is your work history? Some would say 50 years of undiscovered crime. I’ve worked in many places, though chiefly in Australia, which I reached when fully formed (thank goodness) at the age of 27. What newspapers did you write for? I worked for the Press Association, the British national news

NC/E/I-03 Aug 16

I’ll read anything, even the labels on cans, and even in Bahasa Indonesia these days, so I’m a natural collector of inconsequential facts and left-field ephemera. Thus my diary is a collection of singular thoughts, occasionally joined like a string of DNA. One hopes these might entertain and even inform.

C/E/G-03 Aug 16

What are the most frustrating and the most satisfying aspects of writing your column? Because the newspaper diary is Bali-focused, it is sometimes frustrating looking for “good news” local items that aren’t already double-glossed over by the tourismtravel-lifestyle media. Hector does try to look after the charitable NGOs and that gives me satisfaction. What is the biggest challenge in writing Hector’s Diary? Remembering that your own global-but-western perspective is alien to many deeply ingrained political, cultural and social precepts held in Indonesia. In other words, what you think is not always what you should write. It pays to bear in mind that Bali Advertiser readers don’t want to be shouted at (well, who does?) which means that they’re just like readers of any newspaper anywhere. Bali’s expat community is eclectic, and very far from being exclusively English speaking. Where can people learn more about you and your work?

WAYAN JEN

created a great spot to sit and while away an hour or so, trying out some home-style Balinese dishes, or drinking a good coffee in comfortable surroundings with a relaxing rice paddy view. Easy to ¿nd; approx 2 kilometers north of Ubud on Jalan Tirta Tawar.

Almost 20 years ago, a group of outstanding Balinese performers made a life-changing decision – they would no longer work for the tourist trade, where someone else decided the length or style of a classical Balinese work. They formed a performance troupe that would only work for love and joy – at temple and in the community – or on the international stage. This month, for the ¿rst time, Cudamani Festival presents three nights - different musicians, different dancers, different repertoires in a small, intimate venue – to showcase their brilliance and their dedication to the future of Balinese performance. Evening 1: extraordinary young artists – their youthful enthusiasm coupled with amazing technical ability are nothing short of inspiring. Evening 2: the senior/ founding members, who play with a depth, maturity and history that is astonishing and truly rare to see – the antidote to Balinese kitch! Evening 3 (Saturday night) Cudamani’s international performing ensemble. Beyond words, simply stunning artistic accomplishment, joy, laughter, majesty. I’m lining up for front row – for all three nights. Venue information and (limited) tickets from 0819 9931 2816. 0811940092. JUNJUNGAN SUNSETS I I learnt something about my village from my electrician Pak Ngurah the other day. Only 10 years ago, as I drove four kilometers north along Jalan Tirta Tawar to Junjungan, the rice¿elds stretched from Jalan Raya Ubud to the main Junjungan village temple, and then on another two more kilometers till the Tegalalang road. There were no villas, cafes, restaurants or hotels along the way, only three traditional villages – Kutuh Kaja, Kutuh Kelod and Junjungan – and an occasional graceful temple seeking the Gods’ blessing. According to Pak Ngurah, it was common to travel quite a distance from other villages – in his case, close to Gianyar – to select the beautiful tall rice plant stems from a Junjungan padi, because they were known to make the best penjor for traditional ceremonies such as Galungan. There are not so many rice¿elds these days, but it’s still worth it to hop on your bike or hire a driver, and drive up Jalan Tirta Tawar to Junjungan – especially at sunset. Two corners past Junjungan village you’ll see some absolutely mesmerising sunsets. You’ll have to park at the side of the road – there’s no resto yet with a sunset view – but the experience will be worth it. KUTUH POSITIVES On the positive side of the ledger, if I spend just a couple of months away, it will be at least a week before I catch up with all the clever little additions that have popped up along the various roadsides. Kutuh Coffee is run by a local husband and wife team, who offer that Balinese friendliness we all love so much. They’ve

SERVICE THIEVES Grumpy Jen here, with a pretty obvious message for miserly (i.e. penny-pinching or stingy) international tourists and ex-pats … If you don’t have money for a service here, don’t expect to get it for free! You may be short of cash, it isn’t up to the local Indonesian community to subsidise you. One of the local dentists, who does a great job and keeps prices low for both locals and visitors, told me that local patients often get their teeth ¿xed for free, if they are from a poor family. So I suggested asking for donations from foreigners, to set up a pool of cash to support those poorer patients. The reply shocked me. Apparently after their treatment was complete, several O.S. patients (an Australian, a Russian and others) have claimed they had only 50,000rp or less and couldn’t pay. Needless to say, the new ¿lling can’t be removed! I recommended that clinic practice now include taking a copy of each patient’s passport, and a photograph “for the office records”. Hey cheapskates, stop abusing your welcome in this country! DANCE EXERCISE Hey, I love to dance, so any fitness or dance option is always welcome, especially when the teachers are enthusiastic, passionate and great at what they do! Take the Zumba classes at Ubud Fitness centre, with Balinese instructor Ani Ross. Man, can that woman jump! She’s a little “slip of a thing”, but on Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 9am, Ani shows us all what energy and zest for life are all about. Based on the rhythms of Latin America and Africa, Zumba is perfect for me –solid exercise that really gets my heart pumping, without feeling I’m forcing myself to an aerobics class. Ani doesn’t push anyone, participants just do what they can, to the level that suits their own ¿tness level.

Ubud Fitness Center is at the northern end of Jl. Jero Gadung, just off Jalan Raya Ubud. Classes 70,000rp for westerners, 50,000rp for Indonesians. Arrive 5 minutes early to ¿nd your way from the front door to the building’s lowest level for the class. (You don’t have to be a gym member.) MIDDLE EAST SPICY! Yasmin Middle Eastern Café is a little gem. The décor is kasbah perfect, the babaganoush and all its fellow dips absolutely delicious, and the “set menus” both inspired and super-ridiculously good value. I know we are in Bali, and I cherish and commend each little Warung that stays true to grandma’s local recipe or tweaks a new taste sensation with a spicy, sambal-drenched sauce. But when you feel like something different, I unequivocally recommend the kebabs, the meze tasters with oven fresh Àat bread and the piping hot, honey sweet desserts of Yasmin. Service is fabulous and the “middle eastern” cocktails delish and suitably strong. You can ¿nd Yasmin easily; it’s next door to Goddess on the Go, on Jl Raya Pengosekan. Ph: 0811 3851 110.

your work is a journey into the unknown for many. How do you keep so in touch with this ‘other’ world of Indonesian culture? EK: I live in both worlds; the world of tradition and modern. I appreciate “kuda lumping”(trance) performances as well as rock concerts. I talk with villagers as well as hang out in urban coffee shops. SN: What would you like to share with our readers who are interested to attend your sessions at the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival in October?

An interview with Eka Kurniawan By Sarita Newson Eka Kurniawan’s ¿rst novel Beauty is a Wound (¿rst published in 2002) won the first World Readers Award, and has been translated into 24 languages. Man Tiger (2004), a gripping tale of a ghostly tiger that inhabits the protagonist and kills in the name of love, brought him a long-list nomination in the prestigious 2016 Man Booker International Prize. Love and Revenge (2014) is a tragi-comedic observation of masculinity and sexuality, with characters that in turn disgust and endear, and his latest novel, simply titled ‘O’ (2016), is a tragic love story about a monkey who falls in love with a dangdut pop singer-dancer. Ahead of his appearance at this year’s Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (26–30 October), Eka chats with Bali Advertiser writer Sarita Newson about the art of writing, reading and translation. Sarita Newson: Eka, congratulations on the success of your novels, we’re thrilled to have you back at Ubud Writers & Readers Festival this year. Can you tell us what you are working on now?

Eka Kurniawan: I am currently preparing my ¿fth novel, but it’s still at a very early stage. I have been gathering interesting stuff, and I would like to see what comes from that. SN: How important do you consider the choice of a translator is in advancing your literary works to the world? Do you choose your translators, or do they choose you? EK: It’s very important; as it were a song that would be better performed by a particular singer. Every now and then, I choose a translator, but in the other time, the translator chooses my work. The most important point is the translator [is able] to take pleasure in my works and, as expected, I put my trust in his/her skill. SN: I love the way in which you incorporate Indonesia’s tragic history into your novels, and impart the violence and desperation of those times. Do you do a lot of background reading and research? EK: Yes, but I don’t speci¿cally read and research for the particular story. I read and experience everything that comes to hand and use it to write my piece. SN: The characters you write are deeply endowed with their ethnicity and spirituality, bringing a dimension to your work I ¿nd somewhat lacking in other Indonesian ¿ction. Reading

EK: I like books that have a strong sense of humor, books that will make me keep on reading, [so I] discover many fragile and sensitive substances. A writer should be someone who can laugh at many things. Obviously, humor is not just a practical joke. The best humor is the one that can take us further to identify and explore the world (even our own characters) on the hidden sides. Many people cannot appreciate wittiness, and as a result, lots of anger cannot be put out. I think a better and peaceful world begins from how we laugh.

Eka Kurniawan is amongst a host of Indonesian and international writers slated to appear at this year’s Ubud Writers & Readers Festival. Early Bird Tickets to the event (26–30 October) are on sale via the website (www.ubudwritersfestival.com) for a limited time only.

Kadek’s Story : Give The Gift Of Sight Kadek Dita was born in North Lombok where his family of subsistence farmers moved from Bali. He was born cataract blind in both eyes and relied on his parents and other members of the family to lead him around and do basic tasks for him. Although he tried attending school, it was too difficult because he couldn’t see. Kadek was seven years old when he was found by the John Fawcett Foundation (JFF) team in October 2014 during a mass eye screening with the Mobile Eye Clinic in North Lombok. Young children cannot be operated on in the mobile eye clinic because they need a general anesthetic and a different type of operation from that for an adult, so the team referred him to JFF’s Children’s Cataract Surgery Program in Bali. Kadek came with his family to Bali for the operation in early 2015. He was operated on in the Puri Raharja Hospital in Denpasar by ophthalmic surgeon, Dr Wayan Gede Dharyata, who does all JFF’s children’s cataract surgery. Both eyes were operated on; the cataract lenses were removed and new inter-ocular lenses inserted.

The cost of cataract surgery for blind children is around AUD850. For patients like Kadek who come from other islands for their surgery, JFF also pays for the transport costs of the patient and his parents, as well as accommodation and meals while they are in Bali. JFF has a further nine blind children from Lombok and other islands who are scheduled for surgery this year. Indonesia has one of the highest incidences of blindness in the world. About 1.5% of the population, or 3 million people, have treatable cataracts. Adult cataracts take just 20 minutes and AUD 95 to repair. Cataracts come about for a number of reasons. Many are genetic. Sometimes a trauma to the eye will cause a cataract to develop immediately or over time. A nutritious diet is an important factor in avoiding cataracts; diabetes, often dietrelated, can cause cataracts to form. Glaring sunlight over time causes cataracts, as does chronic dehydration. So most non-genetic cataracts are preventable.

C/BT/G-11 Nov. 15

Ironically, Indonesia’s poorest cataract patients receive some of the highest quality surgery and care in the country. In a wonderful example of technology transfer, the professional staff of the JFF team continues to upgrade its skills through training from leading Australian specialists traveling to Bali. The surgical procedure is safe, simple and fast, using microsurgery to remove the defective lens and replace it with a high-quality inter-ocular lens. JFF has been restoring sight and preventing blindness among the poor of Indonesia for 25 years, providing free screening, glasses, medication and cataract surgery. The John Fawcett Foundation has done around one million eye assessments since 1991. Over 44,500 people have had cataract surgery, around 2,000 have had other sight-restoring surgeries, over half a million people have received eye drops for potentially blinding eye infections and since 2001 410,000 people have received glasses. Once his eyes had healed, Kadek returned to his family in Lombok. A year later he is able to read and write like other children. Thanks to generous donors he lives a normal life, independent of his parents and help from others. Please help the JFF continue its inspiring work. Donations to JFF can be made online via their website at www.johnfawcett.org, and are tax-deductible in Australia. Donations from the UK and USA are also tax-deductible – see details on the website which also gives information about how to donate in Indonesia.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

ARE YOU INSURED AGAINST LONGEVITY? Most people recognise the need for life insurance. But surprisingly few make adequate provision for something more likely than an early death, namely the risk of living to a ripe old age! The risk of course is having insufficient financial resources to enjoy a comfortable retirement, free of worries on how to fund the next holiday or perhaps more importantly, medical costs or long term care. And worse still, if your money runs out, worrying where your next meal is coming from. Old age is not the best time of life to be worrying about money. How long can you expect to live? If you are planning for retirement this is a fairly essential element of that planning! The fact is you don’t know. Consulting a fortune teller, local witch doctor or the writings of Nostradamus is unlikely to give you a reliable answer. But there is in fact someone who can tell you and that is an actuary. He or she can tell you your precise ‘expiry date’. At least, statistically, and assuming you are Mr. or Mrs. Average. Of course if you are not Mr. or Mrs. Average the date could be earlier or later. The actuary provides the figure in the middle of the chart. Even then it is a ‘moving target’ and the figure is based on your current age. Your expectation of life at birth may be 80 but if you are already 85 that can no longer be the case. Therefore your expected age at death would move up to perhaps 90. This would be based on the fact that 90 is the average age that 85 year-olds could expect to live to. This is how life insurance companies make their projections and calculate premiums in order to provide cover at a fair price while at the same time allowing a profit for themselves. So what is life expectation at birth? This depends very much on your nationality. The figures, according to a World Health Organisation report in 2015 show some remarkable differences. For example, a Japanese male born today could expect to live to 80, a female to 87. But an unfortunate male or female in Sierra Leone can expect to live to only 46. Here are some further examples of life expectancy taken from the same report: Country Singapore and Switzerland Australia Canada UK and Germany USA China Thailand Indonesia Russia India South Africa Nigeria

Male 81 80 80 79 76 74 71 69 63 65 57 54

Female 85 85 84 83 81 77 79 73 75 68 64 55

Why are there such differences? There are many factors that cause such huge differences and even within countries there are sub-factors such as race and education that will affect individuals but the figures are taken across the board. People’s life expectations are unlikely to change by moving to a different country unless their lifestyle changes too. Factors that contribute to a high expectation of life include greater wealth, high standards of living and education, keeping fit, healthy diet, quality medical care and social stability. Factors that depress life expectation include poverty, poor education standards, inadequate medical facilities, Aids, weak gun control laws, poor nutrition, prevalence of smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. It is not difficult to pick out countries that are impacted by any of these. The relatively low figures for Indonesia can certainly be partly attributed to the high percentage of smokers. Separate figures for Bali are not available although interestingly at least one medical insurance company applies a higher premium for expatriates living in Bali as opposed to Jakarta. The difference does not apply to life insurance though. As for expatriates in general, they are mostly able to maintain the same regimes and quality of life they would have enjoyed in their home countries, hence the greater relevance of nationality as opposed to country of residence.

So how do we prepare for longevity? We now know how long we can expect to live if we are ‘average’. But there is a 50% chance that we will live beyond the average age quoted. In fact, as I have already explained, even the ‘average’ age is higher than those quoted at birth. How can we cope financially during those later years, particularly when we may need considerable medical and long term care? Fortunately there are solutions if you act in good time. The following are some of them : Build up healthy cash reserves There will undoubtedly be times in old age when you will need to find cash in a hurry. While cash in itself is not a good investment it is an essential tool of financial planning as it avoids your having to raid longer term investment vehicles.

C/BT/I-02 March 16

Invest in an annuity This will provide a fixed income for life. But be aware that annuity rates are very low at the moment and the annuity dies with you or with a surviving spouse. There is no residual value. Beware also of the impact of inflation. Build up an investment portfolio One way to generate an income is to invest a lump sum into a portfolio of mixed assets (mainly stocks, bonds and commodities) and arrange for an income from the portfolio to be paid to you on a regular basis. If the portfolio grows faster than your withdrawals it will provide a lifetime income and upon death it passes to your estate. The downside is market risk and the possibility it will be exhausted before you die. Buy-to-let property investment A suitably located property could provide you with an income for life. As rents inevitably rise over time you have built-in provision for inflation. The value is also likely to rise over time. On death it will pass to your estate. The downside includes lack of certainty of rental income, unknown maintenance costs and the difficulty of selling in a hurry. Regular savings and pension plans An absolute essential if you do not have a state or occupational pension to look forward to. Basically the plan involves saving a given amount of money over an agreed period of time. It needs to be a minimum of 10 years but ideally much longer. The regular contributions are invested into a number of funds that have exposure to the financial markets. The eventual lump sum on maturity can be converted to an income. The downside is that abandoning the contract in the early years can be expensive. Whole of life insurance This product can provide a significant level of life cover to protect your family in the event of your death (especially useful if you own property and death taxes apply) but it can also provide you with a lump sum or converted income many years later if you are still alive. This is made possible since part of the regular premium covers the cost of life insurance while the remainder is invested. The cautionary side again is the importance of maintaining premiums, particularly in the early years.

Conclusion Someone once said that perfect financial planning entailed building up wealth during one’s working life then spending it with abandon in retirement so that the last penny runs out the day you die and the cheque to the undertaker bounces! Great idea, but it doesn’t address the possibility that you have got the date wrong and you face many more years with zero resources. So don’t count on statistics; keep building up your assets and maybe you’ll even have something to leave to your estate after settling with the undertaker.

Serangan: Turtle Island Though only 15 minutes from the airport, Serangan Island has its own unique, rustic charm. Not yet super touristy, traditional ¿shing boats are moored near the mangrove trees and a multitude of trails (without signage) lead across a forbidding wasteland to the beaches on the island’s east coast where the main activity is strolling along the shore. In the afternoons, Indonesian families Àock to the area to relax, Ày drones, dig for crabs and clams and drive remote control cars on the sand. Foreign tourists and school groups visit the island on day trips to the turtle conservation center combined with a grilled ¿sh diner at one of the beach warung. Originally, this dry, low-lying island was formed on a 100-hectare sandbar at the entrance to Labuhan Benoa off Bai’s southeast coast that was lined with shrimp farms and mangroves. Serangan in those days was reachable by motorized prahu motor across an estuary from Desa Suwung south of Sanur. The long boat had to negotiate a narrow and very shallow channel through the swamps. From Tanjung Benoa’s tip, it was also possible to walk across the mud to the island at low tide. Once on Serangan, visitors walked on sandy pathways through coconut groves. Tourists signed up for 3-4 hour snorkeling excursions to coral formations off Serangan’s east coast. Now all that is gone. In the 1990s Serangan was pegged for development by President Soeharto’s notorious son Tommy. The original island was essentially obliterated and a new 300-hectare land¿ll was grafted on. At the same time, the causeway Raya Serangan was built to the mainland opposite the village of Pedungan and plans were underway to build shopping centers, hotels and condos. The Asian economic crisis delayed the scheme, though the heavy machinery is still at work transforming the environment. The destruction has actually made the surf break is at the southern end of the land¿ll area more consistent. The surf offshore can be powerful but the shallows are safe enough for children to wade in. At the northern end of Serangan on the original part of the island are two ¿shing villages, Pojok and Dukuh. First settled by Islamic Buginese from South Sulawesi, nowadays both the Muslim and Hindu communities live together harmoniously. Kampung Islam Serangan stands as a model of a multi-faith village with a long tradition of Hindu and Balinese Muslim interaction, one of many thousands of similar compatible communities all over Indonesia. For centuries Bugis ¿shing settlements, Hindu banjar of Bali and Javanese villages have existed peacefully on the island. The history of Kampung Islam Serangan is interwoven with that of Kampung Islam Kepaon, another Islamic community in Denpasar. During a protracted war in the 17th C. between the Balinese Hindu Kingdoms of Mengwi and Bandung’s Pemecutan Palace, the Kingdom of Badung requested military assistance from Bali’s seafaring Bugis communities. After several decisive battles the Kingdom of Badung triumphed and as a token of his gratitude the Bugis were given a parcel of land on Serangan. Today, the Buginese village and its 350 year-old Assuhada Mosque stands nestled between Hindu banjar on the island’s northeastern coast. This mosque of the Bugis community probably predates the Kepaon mosque. In Dukuh village east of the causeway lies the slender, a twopart Pura Dalem Sekenan, a sea temple sacred to all of southern Bali. The features of this seaside pura are its 15th C. pagoda and uncommon, graceful bersayap-style winged candi bentar. Inside is an obelisk to the rice goddesss, Dewi Sri. Legend has it Pura Sakenan was founded by the 10th C. wanderer-priest Mpu Kuturan. It shares similar guardian statues and decorative designs as its contemporary, Pura Uluwatu on

the Bukit Peninsula, and was constructed with the same hard coral stone material.

enough to survive on their own. After one month, they are released into the ocean.

Major religious festivals on Serangan attract thousands of Hindu devotees from all over Bali. Manis Kuningan, perhaps the most religious and joyous day in the Balinese calendar, takes place once every 210 days. During the festival, devotees in bright temple dress gather in the morning sun and line the water’s edge in front of the big coral courtyard where the pemangku of¿ciate and worshippers buy Hindu offerings from one of the many vendors who converge on the site. For the two-day odalan festival, droves of the faithful bear offerings to the sea gods. A colorful fair of towering puppets jockey outside the temple as throngs of people in all their ¿nery stream in and out. Turtle Conservation and Education Centre

Run by volunteers and dependent upon donations, TCEC charges no entry fee. At the visitor’s center sign the guest book and make a donation (Rp20,000 per person is recommended). The tour is short but informative. Kids will likely enjoy it. The facility employs patient and knowledgeable guides who will answer your questions. You’ll see large turtles swimming about in the turtleshaped pool and between the hatchling center and the small souvenir shop is an enclosure for tortoises.

For years Serangan cultivated turtles and collected turtle eggs for sale. The island’s main attraction was a muddy pool inhabited by greenback turtles (kura-kura) near the Pojok jetty. Warung sold turtle meat, turtle shell artifacts and highly polished turtle shells to Bali mainlanders and to tourists. Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) were caught in the surrounding shallow coastal waters or simply turned on their backs when they came ashore at night to lay eggs. First kept alive in bamboo pens, then fattened on seaweed, they were eventually slaughtered in Denpasar and the meat sold to restaurants for turtle steaks and sate or used as a vital ingredient in the Balinese ceremonial specialty, lawar.

Visitors may place two-week old turtles into the tanks and see them swim for the ¿rst time. You may be fortunate enough to arrive when the staff are feeding hundreds of turtles in the low open-air tanks and may even see eggs hatching in fenced off mounds and baby turtles emerging from the eggs and crawling out of the sand. Children are encouraged to gently help dig out newly hatched turtles. When the tour is over visitors are invited to adopt a turtle ($15 AUD) ready for release. You can pick the one you want, give it a name, take it down to the beach and watch it swim off into the ocean. Afterwards, you receive a certi¿cate with your and your turtle’s names on it. In addition to providing information to the general public and students, the turtle center offers employment opportunities and life skills training for locals who produce environmentally friendly turtleish knick-knacks and souvenirs that don’t require the killing of turtles.

In former times there had been a balance between supply and demand, but because of the voracious Balinese market hundreds of these magni¿cent wild animals had be imported from the eastern islands and Maluku. Turtle eggs were imported from West Java and buried in the sand so tourists would be able to see them hatch on the beach. Eventually, as it was contributing to the inevitable extinction of the giant reptile, “Turtle Island” became the focus of a concerted worldwide conservation effort.

Practicalities

Now these graceful exotic creatures are fully protected. Turtle Conservation and Education (TCEC) on was established on 2.4 ha of land as part of a comprehensive strategy to eradicate illegal turtle trading. The center’s most important mission is to encourage the public not to consume turtle products (for religious purposes or otherwise) and to support turtle conservation by helping the community explore alternatives through education, and carrying out research plus a creative sprinkling of business to give endangered turtles another chance on Serangan. Out of the seven sea turtles species, three are kept and raised in the center: the Green sea turtle, the Hawksbill sea turtle, and the Olive Ridley sea turtle. All sea turtle species are endangered due to human activity. Not only h u n t i n g a n d consumption of eggs, but also pollution of the ocean and destruction of breeding beaches have decreased the wild turtle population dramatically. The center acts as a watchdog for Bali in general, providing live turtles for rituals that in turn obviate the need to kill them. TCEC monitors turtle size and numbers so that their use can be strictly controlled and regulated. Local ¿shermen bring injured adults to the center where they are kept in tanks until they are healed. TCEC collects turtle eggs from nests on busy beaches that save eggs from being tread on. They buy eggs from locals to keep them from being eaten. Turtle eggs are also bred and the hatchlings raised and cared for until the baby turtles are strong

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris

Art in the Garden Dear Garden Doctor, I have been doing a lot of gardening and planting and feel that I would like to add some artistic pieces to round it off. Do you have any creative ideas for adding art or ornaments to my garden? I have considered water features and small ponds but the thought of mosquitoes and the ongoing maintenance puts me off. I am also in the process of developing a property for rental in the future and I want to make a beautiful garden for the tenants. I am looking for landscaping that will not use much water or require too much care. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Henry. Beauty, as they say, is always in the eye of the beholder. When deciding on garden ornaments or garden art it really is up to you and your own tastes, you are only limited by your own imagination. Now that reminds me..... A few months back I read an entertaining story about a neighbourhood garden feud that occurred in the good ole U.S. of A. Tina Rose, who lives in Chino Hills, Los Angeles was taken aback when her neighbour demanded she move her newly installed ¿sh pond - complaining that it had encroached across the boundary of their land. In what can only be described as an artistic response, she responded by erecting a statue of a middle finger aimed directly at her neighbour’s house! This time importantly, she made sure that the new installation was completely within her own boundary. I can happily report that the feud has long since been resolved, but the statue or more accurately ‘the finger’ still stands! Although passers-by are reportedly still stunned at the sight, Tina says that the original reason for the ornament has long gone. ‘We’ve became very, very good friends. All of a sudden it just really wasn’t important anymore. I can’t stay angry at somebody forever.’ Erecting the rude garden ornament was Tina’s way of letting off steam, but now it seems to have taken on an artistic will of its own! I know what you’re thinking....only in America, right! Well actually having done a quick search it seems that the ‘middle ¿nger pointed to the sky’ statue-international sign

language for ‘up yours’ or ‘stuff you’ is actually not that rare at all in gardens these days. Apart from statues and middle fingers, you could think about happy sculptures, multi-coloured pebble mulch, wire butterÀies or even a meandering garden path. Something as simple as a small Buddha statue or a bamboo wind chime may be all that is needed to complete your garden art - but if you’re considering pink flamingos or urinating garden gnomes, then I suggest that your imagination has gone a little too far. I once knew an eccentric old engineer who kept a jungle for a garden. Klaus was his name, and he had painted a few large tree branches bright colours at random intervals around the place. It was certainly unique to his garden and the key to it working was the fact that he only did it in a few places...so you didn’t quite know when, where or what colour you would see next. The old adage less is more certainly applies here! When adding ornaments and art to your garden you should think primarily about provoking the senses and emotions. The sight of a tactfully placed Buddha or the sound of a small water feature with a trickling fountain or even a relaxing wind chime may invoke a sense of calm. A strategically placed mirror within the garden may create an illusion of space, depth, or perhaps even make the garden appear brighter. Your ornaments can also be practical - large boulders or stone benches could be utilised as furniture, pebbles used for paths, or larger rocks as stepping stones. Think about recycling. What you once thought was garbage could be transformed into art. You could grow plants out of old boots, or even hang an empty old picture frame in the garden. Recycling renovated household materials is another garden craze that has been popular over the years. Growing plants and making water features out of old bath tubs or ceramic sinks can be quite attractive depending on how it’s done. Even making use of an

old discarded ceramic toilet as a planter is not at all uncommon - just make sure that it’s been Àushed before you plant! The best way to develop a water wise garden that requires little maintenance is to use plants that you see growing around you wild in the local environment. This way you know that the garden can survive off the local rainfall and temperature conditions alone. There are many types of palms that you could choose from. Taller growing types will provide shade in the heat of the day. Lower growing types such as raphis, are attractive landscape plants which can be used for screening whether in full sun or shade. For something in between at an intermediate height try golden cane or lipstick palms. Most palms are low maintenance and once established will happily look after themselves, just go down to the local nursery and see what they have on offer as a starting point. Frangipani trees are always a nice addition to any garden plot. They provide shade and flowers and are relatively low maintenance, though you may have to keep your eye out for the dreaded frangipani rust - an unsightly fungus that can cause problems in the wet season. Bougainvillea will easily grow with little care and will produce plenty of colourful Àowers and there are many different varieties to choose from. It is versatile – can be maintained as a small to medium sized bush, or left to run wild which is particularly useful if you need some screening or have an unsightly wall that you need covered up. Hibiscus or even jasmine can be used in much the same way. In the protected and shaded parts of the garden drop in some foliage plants to provide some contrast such as caladium, croton, calocasia, alocasia and ferns. Bromeliads will also do very well on natural rainfall. Remember when planting bromeliad’s that thicker leathery foliage types prefer partial-full sun, whereas the smoother more delicate foliage types are better suited to a shaded environment. If your bromeliad is getting too much sun the colours of the foliage will fade and become pale. Feel free to plant as many succulents as you can around the edges, as these can be used as groundcovers or even feature plants on their own. Remember the best way to conserve water in the garden is to make sure you have used appropriate plants for the environment, mulched the garden beds and reduced lawn areas.

Say What? Question: I recently met a man who I was smitten with immediately. He was friendly and funny and I loved talking to him. After about two weeks, I was a goner. That’s when we started to become intimate - not full sex, but we took off our clothes and enjoyed lots of touching and kissing. He asked me about orgasms, and I was honest when I told him that it’s rare for me to have one during sex though I sometimes have them on my own. Suddenly he seemed to turn into some sort of scientist, acting as if he needed to “fix” my “problem.” The next thing I knew, he showed up at my house with a sex toy that he had obviously used with other women. I didn’t want that thing near me; it wasn’t even in a package. I was mortified. We were just getting to know each other and the sex tools had already come out. All this might have been fine if we had known each other for some time and had had a chance to explore this option together. But his actions led me to believe that he was regarding me as a sexual object, and I ended up leaving the blooming relationship because it was causing me more confusion than anything else. What do you think? Dr. ZZ: This fellow’s intentions appear to have been premature. You felt pressured and reacted accordingly. This is not to say that he is necessarily a bad person. He’s apparently concerned enough to want the woman he’s with to be satisfied, but he apparently doesn’t understand when to show that concern gently. Perhaps he will learn from this experience. At the same time, you too must exercise caution in sharing personal details at such an early phase in getting to know someone. In the future you may want to practice saying that you are not ready to discuss certain aspects of your personal life just yet. There’s no telling how

another person may connect the dots in what sounds to them like an unspoken invitation. Question: When I was pregnant with my daughter, my husband and I, Westerners, made a deal: he picks the first name, I pick the middle name, and - should we have a second child - we’ll switch. We decided at the time to name our daughter after his late maternal grandmother and my maternal grandmother. For months, I heard no end from my mother about the chosen first name. Every day, she would tell me how much she and her friends hated the name. This happened over and over again daily for months until I finally lost it, and there was a huge blowout. That seemed to end it, and we named our daughter as planned with no further drama. Now, it’s two years later, I’m pregnant with my second child (another girl), and this time I get to pick the first name. I’ve always wanted to name a child after my late maternal grandfather, so I’ve chosen a name that is a female version of his. My husband has chosen his mother’s name for the middle name. My mother is creating drama again, this time by way of frosty behavior and silence. She ambushes me with the notion that she is the “only grandmother left out,” and that it is “disrespectful” of us not to name the baby after her. I explain calmly that it has nothing to do with disrespect, that I simply wanted to name a child after Grandpa and that, since I wasn’t having a boy, this is my choice. Period. She just keeps saying how “hurtful” it is. I feel as if my mother is exhibiting the most ridiculous, selfish

C/Ho/I-16 March 16

and presumptuous attitude, and I can’t even begin to understand how to handle it. Please help me understand what to do. I hate this.

Dr. ZZ: Your mom is way out of line here. She is forcing you into a position of having to seriously defend your boundaries, and you’re not the one violating the social contract. Mom had the chance to choose whatever baby names she wanted when she had children. You obviously did not set out to hurt her feelings, and the way she is pressuring you is creating strife and exhaustion. She can be hurt all she wants, but you are under no obligation to kowtow to her wishes. The matter is not open for discussion. She may rail and complain, but you have the right to cut her off on this subject. She has made her feelings known, and guess what: You are entitled to move forward with the names you’ve chosen. If she brings it up, say, “Next topic, Mom,” and ask a question. If she refuses to switch topics, exit the conversation, or hang up if you’re on the phone, and do not take her calls for 24 hours. The next time you talk to her, be pleasant and treat it as if it never happened, but if she brings up the name issue again, repeat the above. Some people like to project negative emotions or threaten that they will give you the silent treatment if they don’t get what they want. They are apt to find a way to do that about something no matter what you do; so you might as well do what you want, and ride it out. You can’t teach people how to behave; you can only get them to sometimes moderate their behavior around you. Manners and boundaries are important in families. No one gets a “We’re related” pass for being a jerk. Name your daughter whatever you like, and don’t put up with being bullied. Copyright © 2016 Say What?

EXTREME GREEN

Visitors to Bali have almost too many options these days when choosing where to eat and sleep. It’s both politically correct and lucrative to be ‘green’ in these enlightened times and an increasing number of visitors are voting with their credit cards to stay at environmentally sustainable accommodation. The word ‘ecotourism’ crops up frequently, but what does it really mean? The International Ecotourism Society de¿nes it as ‘responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of local people and involves interpretation and education.’ In the Bali context, this translates as low-impact, small scale alternatives to mass tourism. It takes considerable commitment, knowledge, planning and investment to create sustainable accommodation. When faced with a selection of hotels which claim to be ‘eco’ or ‘green’, here are six questions to ask: -

What are your policies to conserve water and electricity? How do you manage the solid waste generated at the hotel? How do you manage your kitchen waste? Where does your sewage go? What percentage of food in your kitchen is locally produced? Where were the building materials sourced?

natural vegetation, and constructed with local materials by local craftsmen. Bali Eco Stay and Bali Eco Village generate some or all of their power by hydro-electricity; Bali Eco Lodge employs low wattage, energy saving equipment. All three manage their solid waste sustainably by re-using and recycling where possible, and all compost their kitchen waste to nourish food gardens. Almost all food served from their kitchens is locally sourced and chemical-free. Sewage is treated in wastewater gardens. Water is obtained from springs, rivers or wells and recycled back into the environment. Bali Silent Retreat in Penebel (picture) goes even further. Low wattage electric light from solar panels is available in the common areas, and most of the accommodation relies on solar lights. All of the buildings are made of recycled wood and other materials. A large organic garden and inspired chef combine to provide one of the most interesting vegetarian restaurants on the island. Because the retreat centre encourages silence and introspection, there is no place to recharge a phone or device on the property. A warung in the village can be visited by those in device withdrawal, but in fact it’s very restful to be able to put them away for awhile. © Jenny Bigio

Management and staff of authentically sustainable hotels/ lodges/retreats will be eager to share all this information and proud of their achievements. If you’re not getting enthusiastic and informed answers, take your custom elsewhere. Respect for and consultation with local communities is an integral part of sustainable tourism.

Sarin Buana Eco Lodge and Bali Eco Village were pioneers in bringing the concept of extreme green to Bali long before it became fashionable. Later joined by Bali Eco Stay, these mountain properties bring together the principals of sustainable accommodation with comfort and cultural integration. Created in close partnership with the Balinese landowners, all are built with minimal disturbance to topography and

The garden provides some of the food served in the simple restaurant but it’s harder to cultivate a food garden near the sea than in the mountains. All the food is very local and daily ¿sh is purchased from the ¿shers whose boats line the beach below. As with Bali Silent Retreat, WIFI is discouraged; internet is available in the restaurant but not in the rooms. Respect for and consultation with local communities is an integral part of sustainable tourism. All these properties work closely with members of their Balinese communities to create economic opportunities. Not only are locals engaged as staff but they also lead nature walks, food foraging adventures, treks, boat trips and cultural encounters. The properties buy local products such as coffee, cocoa, rice, sea salt, coconut oil, ¿sh, vegetables, fruit and Àowers, often at above-market rates. Also to be mentioned here is Bali Asli, a purpose-built cooking school and restaurant incorporating all the principals of eco-tourism. Located outside Amlapura en route to Balila Beach, the spacious property is open daily for lunch. The menu is limited to a large or smaller nasi campur (mixed rice) meal. But the food is amazing; I’ve never encountered Balinese food so clean, fresh and meticulously prepared. Absolutely local, this is Balinese ¿ne dining (or lunching, rather) at its peak and pinnacle. The visitor is invited to experience authentic Balinese cuisine while gazing out over the food gardens to the rice terraces and mountains beyond. (The view is just as stunning from the open-air loo.) I doubt that the owners of any of these properties are growing rich. This level of attention to detail and the small scale of operation make them labours of love. But there’s a lot to love. Please visit them, support them, promote them and enjoy them. We need a lot more like these.

In this column I refer to ¿ve truly eco resorts/lodges/retreats that are fully committed to long term sustainability; I’m sure there are more. Four of these are located in Bali’s central mountains and the other next to the sea near Amed. All of them follow eco-tourism principals and also practice permaculture (sustainable or permanent agriculture/culture) - a system of integrating agricultural and social design elements, working with nature to create sustainable food, water and shelter. The concept was originally developed by Japanese farmer Masanobu Fukuoka, re¿ned by Australian Bill Mollison and now widely interpreted around the world for different climates and terrains. Working with (instead of against) natural ecosystems is a fundamental principal, as is using materials that are locally available instead of bringing them from a distance wherever possible.

¿xtures use reduced water. Black water from the toilets is processed through a wastewater garden and grey water irrigates the fruit garden.”

Balila Beach Eco Resort is the only one of these properties to be located on the beach instead of the mountains. Perched on a bluff over a sweeping black sand beach just a 20 minute surfside stroll from Amed, the property currently has ¿ve large rooms and seven small ones. Building by the ocean has different challenges from the mountain lodges. Beating the heat without air conditioning means building walls with local rock and earth, high ceilings, orienting the buildings so direct sunlight never enters the rooms and providing plenty of natural ventilation. Many of the wooden supporting posts are made of neem, a local fast-growing tree with insect-resistant properties. The greatest challenge here is water conservation on the arid north coast. The property’s well becomes brackish in the dry season, so three rainwater catchment tanks have been constructed under the buildings to hold a total of 62 cubic metres of water. “It’s really dif¿cult to be self-suf¿cient in water in this area,” explains Birgit, the Austrian-born architect who designed and built the Balila Beach. “Every drop is captured and recycled over and over.

Building & Maintenance

“Pigments and Goat Herders” If you are going to build a new building or renovate an existing one it is a good idea to find a good architect to help you. Good architects understand living spaces and how to make them both beautiful and functional. There are some very clever people about, people that can take what may seem to be a straightforward job and do wonders with it by coming up with ideas you may never have thought of. Unfortunately, like many things in life, it is a bit of a jungle out there and for every good architect there are a quite few whose skills may be better suited to the recycling of discarded cigarette ends or to the herding of feral goats. When selecting an architect take care. Make sure he/she is qualified (a certificate in underarm hygiene is probably not sufficient). Ask to see samples of their work and, just to make sure that such properties are not merely pigments in someone’s imagination, ask for addresses. Go and see their projects in the flesh. Consider their work from various points of view: design, use of materials, does the building fit into the setting, building layout, structural design and liveability. If you choose to use a local architect this may well save you some rather exorbitant fees. Once again some local architects are excellent while others may lack “international” experience and may need close monitoring and a smidgeon of guidance. If you decide to leave everything to the architect you can only expect problems however if you are willing to get involved using a local architect can work out well however there can be some pitfalls. The first thing is to make sure that the architect will not argue with you, will listen to what you want and is willing to work with you. A good architect will seek to give you what you want and not what he wants to design. Then you need to get involved in the design process, start off with a concept drawing and make sure that ideas, particularly the room layout, suit you and your needs. Only when the concept drawing is right should you allow the architect to continue to prepare the IMB (building permit) drawings and then the detail design (working) drawings. Fix the fee before you start and avoid the fee being a proportion of total project cost. Once the detail drawings have been prepared you will need to go through them in detail and check that they are alright. This is where working with a local architect needs particular care and attention. Having worked with a number of local architects here are some of the common issues I have come across when checking detail design drawings for clients: The floor layout of a local house is often quite different from what we would expect in a contemporary “internationally designed” living space. For example in local houses living rooms are often small and dining rooms non existent. Staircases are often too narrow or too steep and step heights may be all wrong. You may find a lack of consideration for privacy and you may find wasted space particularly for corridors. High ceilings keep rooms cool but they can also make a building appear out of proportion. Views seem to be an unknown concept in Indonesia and you will often find that local houses do not take advantage of views or sunlight. Without windows in outside walls ventilation can also be a problem. Be aware of the direction of the sun to make use of natural light in rooms or to keep rooms cool by providing shade on building walls. It is common to find solar water heaters that have been installed facing in the wrong direction. Water flows downhill (surprise, surprise) and roof and ground drainage needs to reflect this. Heights particularly need to be thought about. Indonesian people are generally not as tall as foreigners and this may affect many aspects of design such as the heights of doorways, washbasins, kitchen benches, bathroom vanities, toilet seats, steps in staircases and seating. Will you have an Indonesian cooking for you? Line of sight through buildings needs careful thought. Poor placement of doors or windows may result in a person sitting on the tut being visible from the front door, not good when important guests arrive. In local houses bathroom floors are usually set a step lower than the rest of the house. This is because traditional local bathrooms were designed as wet bathrooms in which people washed themselves by standing in the middle of the bathroom floor and throwing copious amounts of water over themselves. Contemporary international bathroom design utilises dry bathrooms in which washing is confined to a shower cubicle or a washbasin. The bathroom floor is usually set at the same height as the rest of the house and a floor drain is optional. In Britain many bathrooms are even carpeted. Plumbing can be a major issue and most locally designed

bathrooms have floor drains that do not have u bends and are also connected directly to the black water system (the sewer) giving the house a rather memorable odour. Structure we have mentioned many times before. Architects and builders who follow local standards will often not bother getting soil tests done, they may use inadequate “cut and paste” foundation design or even no foundations at all. Soil tests are very important for foundation design especially if the building has more than one storey. In local buildings structural columns and beams are often inadequate, get an engineer to advise. There are some more obscure things you may also wish to consider.

Designing the swing of doors to maintain privacy. Here is an example: let us consider a North, South, East, West room with a door in the South East corner on the Southern wall. These days we often find that such a door would swing clockwise against the Eastern wall. This has a problem in that when the door opens the contents of the room are immediately revealed in full. Traditional European design developed over centuries dictates that the door would open into the room (anticlockwise away from the Eastern wall in this case) so that anything happening in the room (perhaps someone undressing or participating in some private bedroom athletic activity) is not immediately visible and a warning cry can be issued before all is revealed. This is particularly important for toilet and bathroom doors. It should be noted that the placement of light switches must be reversed if the door swing is changed. Window design also needs some mention. Many windows in Indonesia are swung from top hinges which means that they do not get the full benefit of passing breezes. Traditional Queensland design (it can be stinking hot in Queensland) sets the windows along house sides so that they open in such a way as to “scoop” prevailing winds into the house and so are able to take advantage of even the slightest breeze. In Bali prevailing winds are usually be from the South East (July August) and the South West (December January) so windows on the eastern side of the building should open outwards in an anticlockwise direction and clockwise on the western side. On the North and South sides they should be able to open fully. This is a fairly basic design concept but often forgotten.

Local builders and architects may use plywood or Kalsi board for ceilings. Kalsi board is a cement based fibre board which is white finished on one side and is very useful for finishing surfaces that may be exposed to dampness such as soffits in building eaves. Plywood and kalsi board are not really suitable for ceilings because the joints between the boards have a tendency to open leaving cracks in the ceilings. Modern ceilings are usually finished using plasterboard ( drywall to the yanks, gyprock to the Aussies and gypsum to the locals). They give a better finish and don’t crack. The height of electrical fittings also needs consideration. For some strange reason local building practice often places plug sockets a metre up walls. Plug sockets are better placed much lower to the ground. Similarly light switches are often placed so high that height impaired people (such as young children) can’t reach them. These should also be lower. Traditionally Indonesian people have always used squat toilets with water spray washers. It is probably a good idea to provide both toilet paper and water spray for all toilets and to provide a squat toilet in the maid’s room. C/BM/M-20 July. 16

Finally safety can often be a blind spot for local architects and builders. Items you may need to check are: • Alway use tempered glass not ordinary glass for shower screens. • Make sure gas cylinders with their regulators are not in a kitchen, or any other room, that is not ventilated. • Use non slip floor tiles in bathrooms, verandahs or any other areas that may get wet. • Install RCBOs (electrical contact breakers with earth leakage detectors built in) instead of standard contact breakers on power circuits. • Make sure all electrical circuits are earthed (whatever your electrical contractor may tell you). • Make sure swimming pools have a shallow end with steps to get out. Swimming pool fences are a good idea and mandatory in Australia. Phil Wilson Previous “Fixed Abode” articles can be found subject indexed on our website at www.mrfixitbali.com.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

As a Visitor to Bali, what is my Impact on Bali? It’s no secret that Bali has some serious environmental issues: trash, air pollution and water shortages being the most immediate threats to human health and the future of tourism on this tiny island. These problems are always worse in developing countries due to corruption which has resulted in low levels of education, confusing and complicated government policy, lack of social awareness campaigns and a general apathy and could-care-less attitude due to all of the above. As a visitor to Bali from a more developed country, you should have a heightened sense of awareness, respect and care for the environment you are in at any given time. Well, that’s the theory. In reality, I see this as being far from the truth and this is why I’m writing a series on this. Living here for nearly 20 years, I regularly talk to visitors to Bali and observe the way they act. You may visit this island for just a few days, but your impact has a ripple effect that you may have never considered.

C/BM/G-22 June 16

On so many levels, developing countries are a lot more fragile environmentally speaking than developed ones. This goes double for Indonesia where the country is a massive sprawl of islands, and triple for Bali which is one of the smallest yet the most popular tourism destination of them all. Why am I talking to you about Bali’s environment in a column which is supposed to be about culture? Culture is the product of a human being’s environment. The beauty of Bali that still exists is the result of an agrarian culture that lived a lot more symbiotically with nature than people do now. Since the late 20th century, – this balance has been seriously threatened by rampant development with its global pop culture / penchant for anything culture neutral. Bali is no longer agrarian and its environment is no longer in balance. In fact, it is trashed, polluted, crowded and developed to bursting point. In the next edition of Kulture Kid, I’m going to suggest ways how you can reduce your impact when you visit Bali.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH C/He/G-20 July 16

C/He/G-20 July 16

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

FAKE VACCINES….is your child protected? Naturally I have been following these events closely, and up to date the fake vaccine distribution has only been detected in West Java. Bali has been thoroughly checked by BPOM, and has yet detected no fake vaccines. The major concerns are with the Biofarma brands and the distributor (CV AZKA), as well as the team of doctors, pharmacists, lab techs, and nurses involved, who have all been arrested and interrogated. So far the information extracted from these people does not indicate that the vaccines concerned have been distributed out side of West Java (Jakarta, Bogor, Bekasi, Cekarang) The vaccines that were falsified were: 1. Engerix B is the brand name of Hepatitis B vaccine 2. Pediacel is a combination vaccine that stimulates immune system to produce antibody against diphtheria, tetanus, cough, polio and Hib infection. 3. Euvax B is the brand name of Hepatitis B vaccine 4. Tripacel is immunization vaccine for baby 5. Tuberkulin Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) RT 23 is a liquid that contains PPD of Mycrobacterium tuberculosis. 6. Penta-bio is combo vaccine, which contains DPT-HB-HiB (Diphtheria-Pertussis-Tetanus-Hepatitis B-Influenza) 7. TT (tetanus) is a vaccine contains inactive toxin to prevent tetanus. 8. Measles vaccine is obligatory antibody given to children 9. Hepatitis B is a vaccine to tackle Hepatitis B virus and prevent infections from the disease, such as liver cancer and cirrhosis 10. Polio bOPV (polio) is a vaccine to prevent polio 11. BCG vaccine is a vaccine to prevent tuberculosis

12. Havriz is a Hepatitis A immune vaccine We have received written statements from our suppliers APL (Anugerah Pharmindo Lestari) and SKB (Smith Klein Beecham) that the false vaccines have not been part of their distribution chain. We have only ever used APL as our supplier, so I am confident that the vaccines used for my patients are the real thing. If you or your child does get a disease that you have already vaccinated against, it is usually not because the vaccine was a fake. Some reasons for this maybe: 1. Your immunity doesn’t last forever - The immunity your body develops in response to certain vaccinations fades over time. You may need a “booster” to re-establish your immunity. For Example: Your immunity to whooping cough (pertussis) weakens over time. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that adults age 19 to 64 boost their immunity by getting a one-time dose of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) instead of the usual Td (tetanus and diphtheria) shot. Whooping cough can be fatal for infants, and they usually catch it from adults. 2. The vaccine protects against an organism that changes over time - The influenza viruses that cause the flu are constantly changing. That’s why a new and different flu vaccine comes out every fall, and doctors recommend a flu shot every year for healthy children (starting at age 6 months) and adults, including pregnant women (in fact, it’s especially important during pregnancy). 3. You didn’t get all the doses you need for full effectiveness - If you haven’t been fully vaccinated against an illness, you’re not as protected as you could be. For Example: One dose of the chicken pox vaccine produces 78 to 79 percent immunity. After the recommended second dose, immunity to mild disease is about 90 percent

and immunity to severe disease is close to 100 percent. In other words, about 10 percent of those vaccinated will come down with a mild version of chicken pox, but almost nobody who’s fully vaccinated will get a bad case of it. 4. Your body didn’t develop full immunity after the vaccination - Your health, age, and genetics affect how well your body produces immunity against a disease after being vaccinated. That’s why vaccines are sometimes less effective in the elderly and in people whose immune system is compromised for some reason. 5. Your body hasn’t had enough time to produce immunity - It takes about two weeks for your body to build immunity after receiving a vaccination. If you’re exposed to the illness too soon after getting the vaccine, it may not protect you. If you are concerned that your child may have received fake vaccines, consult you local doctor. We can check your antibody response to some vaccines but not all. The solutions used in the fake scandal were likely either water or saline, so no harm from the injected substance will occur, however the children injected with these vaccines will not build immunity to the disease.

Beauty & Health By Shari

BIOTHERAPY When I first watched a video of Bioenergy treatment, it looked like Ivan Roca was a magician. The people he was working on were bending over backward as he was controlling their movements with his hands. Was this hypnotherapy? Was it magic? Was it a trick? Curiosity led me to learn more. It’s necessary to commit to attending four sessions, which are held in a group over two to four days. Ivan likes to work with a group for synergistic reasons with everyone benefiting from the therapy. Sometimes the healing sessions are conducted during classes he teaches over four days so that the students are able to work on people as they learn the methods. I was assigned to a group consisting of six people, mostly from Eastern Europe. Two sessions a day were being held lasting approximately two hours each. As we sat around facing Ivan he explained how Biotherapy works. He has treated thousands of clients in his clinics in Croatia, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore over the past ten years. He says he can treat anyone, any age, including a baby still in the womb. After his explanation of Biotherapy he asked each of us to tell him why they had come and what they wanted treated. He asks people bring lab or doctor reports to verify their condition, but it’s not always necessary. After everyone in our group told him about their problem he selected a lady from Australia to begin her treatment. Generally he doesn’t place his hands on the client but holds them a short distance away from the area he’s treating. He directs the bioelectromagnetic field of his hands to the area which requires attention by stimulating, enhancing and directing the immune system to heal the body naturally. At times the client is standing or sitting as he is doing the treatments. You can’t actually feel anything while it’s happening. But later I was amazed as he worked on a man who was swaying backwards as Ivan manipulated his body from the other side of the room. During my last session I could feel this magnetic pull from behind me as Ivan pulled the energy. It was irresistible like a strong magnet was pulling my body. When my body bent backward Ivan clapped his hands and caught my back and pushed me forward.

their condition after 5-10 days and more critical problems it takes 15–30 days to see changes. He also says that once a problem is cured, it acts like a vaccine and you will never get this illness again. What is Biotherapy? Biotherapy is immune therapy based on manipulation of the bioenergy (energy observed in the living systems) in the human body by the external bioelectromagnetic field of the therapist. Bios is a Greek word meaning living and therapy is another ancient Greek word meaning treatment. Biotherapy has nothing to do with the concept of Qi or Prana, but it’s based on modern scientific facts. Biotherapy is a clinically proven treatment which has been applied with success for 40 years, which originated in Russia and Eastern Europe. Today it is applied throughout the world as a serious and highly structured energy assisted therapy. All diseases can be treated with success. With some diseases, the objective success will be complete recovery, while with others, symptoms of the disease will be alleviated, or the result will be greater independence for the patient or arrested development of the disease. The only diseases that can’t be treated are psychological illnesses like schizophrenia. Complementary healing methods have been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) since 1976 when a need arose to push forward scientific boundaries. This paved the way for the development and enhanced reputation of new approaches to healing using bioenergetic principles. What are the main advantages of Biotherapy? In conjunction with conventional types of therapeutic medical techniques, Bioenergy treatment is effective across a broad spectrum ranging from prevention to assisting recovery of all physical and mental illness.

The bioenergy treatment is a powerful, non-invasive and simple means of biofield therapy with a beneficial effect regardless of age or condition treated. It’s complementary and supplementary to all other medical and ‘alternative’ therapies, even though, in many cases, it’s much more successful and efficient. • No use of chakras (so-called energy centers) and meridians (energy channels) • Direct application to organs and tissue through automatic cell to cell communication • No religious and spiritual background • No side-effects • Noninvasive; patient is softly touched or treated without touch • Objective medical results • Complementary with all other western-eastern medical and alternative medical therapies • Easy application without special conditioning of the mind and body

The therapy is pretty strict - the patient needs to commit to one group and come four times. Therapy cycle is conducted in four group sessions, two and half hours T h e n e x t d a y I v a n a day.

Shareholders must be the ones to rein in these greedy men and are the ones who must come to insist upon a fairer and more sustainable business model for pharmaceutical industry or come to rue the day.

Not quite so simple apparently. Doctors who favor the expensive medications give a variety of reasons. They may believe patients with certain clinical characteristics respond better to them.

ETHIOPIA: SHRINKING HOMES & WATER TOWERS It is commonly thought that bamboo blooms best in Asia. But, two thirds of the world’s bamboo forests grow in Africa, with Ethiopia’s extensive reserves taking top place. With a bountiful supply so freely accessible to its people, it’s little wonder that bamboo is used so extensively in this country, especially among ethnic groups still living primarily off the land. The Guge Mountains in Ethiopia’s southern region, from the banks of the Omo River to the Lake Abaya highlands, are home to the Droze tribe. With an estimated population of nearly 40,000, residing at an average elevation of 3,000m above sea level, the Droze people have, to a large extent, preserved a traditional way of life – which includes weaving distinctive clothing, blankets and scarves. The Droze are also renowned for constructing h o m e s entirely from organic materials in the form of giant beehives. The exterior walls are erected from bamboo with an overlaid thatch of leaves made from the enset, otherwise known as the “false banana” tree. (The enset – which is in fact a perennial plant rather than a tree - resembles a regular banana tree, except that it does not bear fruit.) Layers of tightly-packed, droughtresistant enset prevent rainwater from dripping into homes. From the outside, with two openings and a section of roof protruding, the homes look like elephants. In the distant past, elephants roamed around the village; but have since migrated to other regions. To honour the connection to their ancestral pachyderms, the locals built homes to mimic their form. The Àooring, the roo¿ng and even the interior dividers are also made from bamboo. From the inside, with large sections of Àat bamboo covering the dome-shaped space, the impression is of a large-scale basket weaving turned on its head. Partitions provide some separation between bedrooms, kitchen and storage. The kitchen of the main domed house is typically used only to prepare coffee and tea. Occasionally, beer is brewed - from barley, wheat and corn. A larger, secondary kitchen is located in a separate dwelling; it is here that the family’s bread and injera (traditional Ethiopian Àatbread) are baked. Due to the coolness of the interior, the family often shares its living quarters with animals; the closeness between family and animals helps to maintain the warmth inside. These Droze beehive huts, some rising up to 12 meters in height, may remain intact for up to 100 years. (Enset leaves on the roof must nevertheless be replaced every twenty years.) However, termites gnaw away at the bamboo from the bottom of each structure, which, over time, causes homes to shrink. As the home gets smaller it is put to different uses. The dwarf home is turned into a spare room or kitchen. These shrunken or smaller structures – such as a kitchen - might be used as a ‘honeymoon house’ where newly married couples reside temporarily. Over 3 months, the couple will build a main home where they will live and raise a family. When they move out, it once again becomes a kitchen.

Bamboo is utilized for other purposes in daily life as well. The middle of a bamboo pole is cut to create an opening with edges that are extremely sharp. With a hand holding each end of the bamboo section, a woman repeatedly scrapes the sharp opened edge of the bamboo pole along a section of leaf placed on a board, shredding it down to its ¿bers. Those ¿bers are then used to make items like traditional hats and 5-stringed musical instruments.

It is often easier to fight for principles than to live up to them.

Bamboo is also used in the process of making a fermented Àatbread from the trunk of the ensete tree, called kotcho. The pulp of the grated leaves are collected, wrapped in ensete leaves and buried underground for three months – where fermentation takes place. Although the Droze have managed to preserve their traditional way of life, it is also under threat. Shifts in climate patterns have led to profound change. A drought has been affecting the region for a long time, and lack of access to running potable water means inadequate health, hygiene and sustenance. Often under a blazing midday sun, village women have been required to walk for hours to collect water in large plastic containers, from distant rivers and other impure water sources.

C/He/I-25 Nov 15

Enter an Italian architect, Arturo Vittori, who visited the region a few years back, and noticed the hardships that were taking a toll on the Droze people. Upon his return to Italy, he and his team devised a sustainable synthetic mesh system that would collect rainwater and drops from humidity, thereby providing a readily accessible source of clean drinking water in the village; thereby saving women time and labor. C a l l e d W a r k a Water, the entire water catchment system comprised of local and biodegradeable materials such as ¿ber ropes and bio-plastic - is installed within an expansive and modular bamboo structure, soaring to nearly 10 meters in height. Although the original Warka Water system was designed as a prototype, more towers are being planned. Vittori’s design has been criticized on many levels; among them, for the expense, grandiose size, and insuf¿cient quantities of drinkable water to justify the construction of more towers. But the ingenuity of employing a locally sourced material, in this case bamboo, to resolve a global humanitarian challenge, is nevertheless worthy of recognition.

BA Feature Article

The Lighter Side of Coconuts By Peripatete It’s a tropical fruit. Simple, not particularly extraordinarylooking, in its shape and inherent qualities: Shell, husk, pulp, juice. Yet, even the relatively mundane coconut has managed to rack up pretty impressive credentials as a curious cog in our world’s wheel of oddities. From culture to creatures, from movies to museums, the coconut astounds with its versatility, appropriations and unexpected applications. The amphioctopus marginatus, more commonly known as a Coconut Octopus (or veined octopus), is an amphibious creature with a decidedly odd penchant for the large round seed. Known to forage for discarded coconut shells on the beach, the Coconut Octopus – the only known invertebrate to “walk” on two of its legs - transports them long distances along the sea Àoor, only to then reassemble them into an underwater shelter. This 8 centimeter-long tropical species, originally discovered in 1964, was found to dwell in the western Paci¿c Ocean. Then, in 2009, researchers studying octopus behavior in Indonesia, noticed that the coconut octopus regularly travels – with shells in claw - many leagues under the sea. “While I have observed and videoed octopuses hiding in shells many times, I never expected to ¿nd an octopus that stacks multiple coconut shells and jogs across the seaÀoor carrying them,” said Julian Finn, one of the lead researchers. Meanwhile, above ground, a very d i ff e r e n t s o r t o f carrying – and throwing – of coconut shells takes place in Asian countries such as India and Sri Lanka. Called, “dashing the coconut,” this ritual is often used for purposes of sacred Hindu ceremony, with devotees breaking coconuts against a stone, a wall or on a road to ward off evil spirits. Some people buy coconuts and smash them outside a temple; a symbolic way of expecting the interior of your soul to be pure and clear like the insides of the coconut. As if to emphasize the sacredness of the coconut, the fruit’s kernel is eaten after the dashing. In southern India, it is said that, to worship Shiva, devotees must ¿rst purify their body with water before entering the sacred space. Gifts of incense or Àowers are then presented to Shiva to symbolize one’s heart and soul. A ripe coconut must be counted among the gifts – which the priest will then dash against a stone surface, spilling its contents in front of the lingam. The nut represents the human skull, or the hardened ego. So the act of dashing the coconut represents the sacri¿ce of the ego to the greater self. Dashing coconuts - referred to also as “doing the dash and smash” is a way to invoke blessings from the deities. The Tamil people believe that it is best to have your coconut smashed into tiny pieces because it is reÀects the vanishing of all evil in a person. It was once thought that dashing the coconut, which has (exceptionally) occurred at funerals, was also a form of curse. This may explain how, among some Hindu, shells are also thrown at protests. A story is told about coconuts being dashed against a sacred tree in the belief that, in so doing, an armed conÀict would be brought to an end. However, ironically, the curse was reversed resulting in the chief warmonger dying, shortly after the coconut dashing ceremony had taken place. Cursed deaths and smashed nuts aside, coconuts are employed in rituals and practices on joyful occasions as well. In Karnataka, India, dried coconut (kopparai) is exchanged between a bride and groom. Among Brahmin marriages, the bride’s mother-in-law presents the newlyweds with gifts such as dolls, cosmetics – and a bundle of dried coconuts (known as copra or copara); these full and half-coconuts are decorated with engravings depicting scenes of nature and deities, as well as names of the marrying couple. In some parts of Asia, coconuts are an integral part of tropical folk dances and cultural performances - such as the maglalatik, for instance, a traditional war dance indigenous to the Philippines: Coconut shell halves are strapped to various parts of a male performer’s hands and body (or sewn onto a vest) and used as makeshift drums. The dancers perform the dance

by hitting coconut shells together - their own or those of other dancers – to the rhythm of a fast drumbeat. The name of the folk dance originates from latik, the Filipino word for “fried coconut milk curd,” a product used in local c o o k i n g , particularly in snacks. The dance is intended to impress the viewer with the great skill of the dancer. In some circles, it has been noted that the maglalatik is, in fact, a type of movement that disguises boxing as a choreographed dance - a more palatable form for public viewing and consumption. The Filipino fascination with all things coconut, including coconut-related paraphernalia, has over time expanded to distant shores as well. The Coconut Mansion – the public face of the Coconut Republic company – is located in Pasadena, California. Set up by a Filipino collective, the lowly coconut is here elevated to the status of a highly-prized indigenous material; symbolically representing a wide array of crafts from the Philippines. The Coconut Mansion showcases the company’s high-end collection of Filipino-made coconut crafts, including lamps, sconces, tables, dividers, beds, chairs and decorative accessories. No experience at the Coconut Mansion would be complete without a visit to its on-site Coconut Health Spa. Customers are invited to choose among treatments (to be enjoyed in your private quarters, aka the Coconut Casita) that include the Coconut and Pineapple Paradise Massage and the Sea Salt Coconut Body Polish. As if the Coconut Mansion does not sound opulent enough, it may be worth recalling an improbable exercise in unbridled extravagance; the Coconut Palace, commissioned by the former President of the Philippines, Ferdinand Marcos. With an upcoming visit of Pope John Paul II to Manila in mind, Marcos ordered the palace to be erected - to the tune of 37 million pesos (approx USD$10 million). The two-story structure was built almost entirely from chemically treated coconut lumber, while other parts of the coconut tree and fruit were also incorporated into the décor and architecture. Mansions and palaces may be implausible ways to revere the coconut, but…have you heard of the Coconut Kingdom? In the southern region of Vi e t n a m s ’ Mekong Delta, a shrine is one of t h e o n l y remnants of the short-lived Coconut Religion (Dao Dua) founded in 1963. The brainchild of a Vietnamese former scientist who became a serious meditator, the Coconut Religion attracted disciples from various countries and faiths. The largely unknown cult’s strictly vegetarian followers would gather at a Àoating pavilion near Phoenix Island, where they sought salvation through group prayer and conducted elaborate rituals – while the Vietnam War raged on. Devotees of the so-called Coconut Kingdom subsisted largely on coconut meat, milk, juice, oil and leaves.

Despite the occasional odd and eccentric uses to which the lowly coconut has been put – including mimicking the sound of galloping horses in the opening sketch of the classic British movie, Monty Python and the Holy Grail – its status has also been elevated to an item worthy of aesthetic appreciation. Among its extensive collection of artworks culled from around the world, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York lists nearly 90 objets d’art made of coconut. Included in the list are silver and gilt-edged coconut shells, instruments and vessels dating as far back as the 16th century. In the Middle Ages, coconuts were so rare and so cherished that their shells were polished and mounted in gold; some are included in the Met’s collection. Among the unusual items on display (or stored out of public sight) are ornamental engraved spoons, decorative bowls, bracelets and a Dayak ¿ddle. An early 17th century Hungarian tankard (drinking vessel) is made of coconut shell and gilded silver. This ornately engraved and well-preserved goblet reÀects the late Renaissance taste for uniting exotic natural materials with artistic craftsmanship. Coconut shells, treasured since ancient times, were thought to have miraculous powers, including the ability to neutralize poisoned wine. With the coconut’s ¿brous husk removed, the shell could be polished and mounted as a lavish drinking vessel. An 18th century Tahitian sculpture made with coconut husk ¿ber represents a Maohi war god. Composed of a solid wooden core covered by intricately plaited layers of coconut ¿ber rope, the images of ‘Oro appear almost clublike, with the eyes, ears, and other facial features only lightly hinted at in the outermost layer of the coconut ¿ber. The practice of wrapping sacred images in layers of coconut ¿ber cordage or barkcloth was widespread in Polynesia and was often accompanied by chanting. As the artist worked, he or she literally wove the power of the chants into the ¿ber wrappings, increasing the mana (supernatural power) of the image. A 19th century Thai stringed instrument, Sǀ SƗm SƗi, is made of a halved, triangular-shaped coconut with three bulges on its back. Ivory and mother-of-pearl are also contained in the piece. Other 19th-early 20th century stringed instruments include those of the Malagasay people from Madagascar; and a ‘tamburi’ from India and – comprised of coconut and bamboo. Lutes, ¿ddles and other items – made from coconut and other components selected from nature’s bounty - have emerged from cultures all over Asia, Africa and Europe. In the late 19th century, the Elema people of Papua, New Guinea, made charms of coconut shell, lime and ¿ber. And in the same period, coconuts were used in the production of ornately engraved vessels in Nigeria’s Court of Benin. As late as the last century, raincoats were still being produced from coconut fiber and worn in rural China. The Met’s collection contains three wellp r e s e r v e d examples of coconut-husk rainwear – a precursor, perhaps, to efforts by today’s eco-conscious enterprises to manufacture fabrics and clothing sourced from natural materials. ++++

Among the 4,000 followers of this nutty faith – a fusion of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Taoism and a zealous love of coconuts - were novelist John Steinbeck’s son and the group’s leader, Thành Nam NguyӉn (aka Coconut Monk and His Coconutship), a former scientist and scholar who climbed trees, prayed for the peaceful reuni¿cation of North and South Korea, and for three years allegedly survived on nothing but coconuts.

In India’s Sanskrit language, the coconut is called kalpavruksha, which means “a tree that ful¿ls all desires.” But, after a long and esteemed history as one of nature’s most ubiquitous and regenerating icons, the coconut is facing possible extinction – at least in one part of India. In a strange twist, as of January 2016, coconut trees in the country’s southern tropical state of Goa, are no longer considered trees. Authorities have reclassi¿ed them as palms to allow farmers and developers to cut them down more easily.

Abolished in 1975 by Vietnam’s victorious Communist government in 1975, the Coconut Religion has largely faded into extinction – save for one elderly woman who still tends to the shrine and Àavors her coconut with chili.

Local News Wedding Planning Company Bali D’Luxe Ordered to Pay Unsatisfied Couples A Perth-based Bali wedding planning company has been ordered to compensate five couples left out of pocket when it became insolvent and their plans for a dream wedding were ruined. Acceler8 Group, which traded as Bali D’Luxe, has been fined $50,000 by the Joondalup Magistrates Court and its director told to pay more than $75,000 in compensation. It was convicted of five offences under consumer law for wrongly accepting payments and failing to supply services within a reasonable time. Bali D’Luxe accepted pre-payments for weddings in Bali between June 2013 and October 2014 before going into voluntary liquidation. That left the five couples, three from Western Australia, one from the ACT and one from San Francisco in the US, as unsecured creditors. Some had traveled to Bali to find the company had not paid for most of their wedding services. Accommodation, venue hire, catering, photography and makeup arrangements had been cancelled when confirmation deposits were not paid. The couples were forced to make new arrangements and

pay more money to ensure their special day could still go ahead. Acting Commissioner for Consumer Protection David Hillyard said it was highly stressful, costly and disappointing for the couples. “The couples thought they were going to have their dream wedding in a popular destination, but it turned out to be a nightmare,” Mr. Hillyard said. The company’s director Catherine Williams pleaded guilty to the charges and was last week ordered to pay more than $20,000 compensation to some of the couples. She was disqualified from managing a corporation for five years and granted a spent conviction. In 2014, designer Glenn said he and his fiancée had paid Bali D’Luxe an $8,000 deposit for their wedding. “I couldn’t believe that they were still accepting money just days out from going into liquidation,” he said at the time. “We were about to pay more money which probably would have been the remainder of the amount, so another $8,000, but we couldn’t get a hold of her so small mercies in what has been a pretty messy situation.” (July 21st 2016)

New Executions For Drug Convicts Looming in Indonesia More drug convicts could imminently face the firing squad in Indonesia, after authorities said on Monday (25/7) they were ready to carry out a new round of executions after a hiatus. A Pakistani death row convict was sent Monday to Nusa kambangan prison, where Jakarta conducts executions, and an Indonesian woman sentenced to death for narcotics offences was transferred to the island over the weekend. The Pakistani embassy in Jakarta was notified by the Indonesian foreign ministry on Friday that the Pakistani man, Zulfiqar Ali, would be executed in the near future, Pakistani deputy ambassador Syed Zahid Raza said. Such notifications are typically sent out to foreign embassies in the days before inmates are put to death. It was not immediately clear whether more had been issued. “The embassy of Pakistan has approached all the concerned high officials to convince them that it was not a fair trial for Zulfiqar,” he said in a statement. Rights groups have claimed Ali, sentenced to death in 2005 for heroin possession, was beaten into confessing. Molyanto, prisons chief in Central Java province, which includes Nusakambangan, told AFP “all the preparations… have been made”. “Any time the attorney-general’s office gives the order, we’re ready,” added the official, who like many Indonesians goes by one name. Neither Molyanto nor the attorney general’s office, which PT Jasa Raharja Pays Compensation for Russian Woman Killed in Bike Accident On June 27, 2016, Daria Kuznetsova, and her husband Alexander Pilzak were riding a motorcycle bearing registration number DK 8057 LT when they met with a road accident in the Nusa Dua area in South Kuta. The hit-and-run accident occurred at around 6 p.m. local time, and Daria died on the way to the nearest hospital. Jasa Raharja Bali has paid compensation worth Rp25 million, through the Russian Consul in Ungasan, Jimbaran, after the victims family completed the administrative requirements. Branch Head of Jasa Raharja Bali, Mrs. Sulistianingtias stated in Denpasar on Friday (15/7) that foreign nationals were entitled to compensation for road accidents if the tourists

oversees executions, would say when the convicts would face the firing squad or who would be included. The attorney general’s office previously said executions would resume after the Eid holiday at the start of July, and that Indonesians and foreigners would be included, but no Europeans or Australians. Indonesia last carried out executions in April 2015 when it put to death seven foreign drug convicts, including two Australians, sparking anger from international allies and the United Nations. But President Joko Widodo has refused to back down, insisting Indonesia is facing an emergency due to rising narcotics use and that drug traffickers must be harshly punished. A Filipina, Mary Jane Veloso, who was pulled from the last round of executions will not be included in the upcoming round as a legal process related to her case is ongoing in the Philippines, said the attorney-general’s spokesman Mohammad Rum. Several Europeans on death row in Indonesia for drugs offences look set to escape the looming executions, including Frenchman Serge Atlaoui and British grandmother Lindsay Sandiford. Indonesia executed 14 drug convicts, mostly foreigners, in two batches in 2015, sparking international outrage. Following the executions of the Australians, Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran, Canberra temporarily recalled its ambassador from Jakarta. (July 25th 2016) were in any region of the country. “As long as they are in any part of Indonesia and are using vehicles registered in the country at the time of the accident, they are entitled to compensation,” she revealed. Sulistianingtias stated that during this time of the year, several tourists were likely to become victims of road accidents but never received any compensation from Jasa Raharja. “They were taken to hospitals but then discharged immediately to leave for their homes. We will take steps to ensure that their rights are met,” she affirmed. Compensation was handed out to tourists, who suffered from minor or severe injuries, and also to the families of those who lost their lives. Jasa Raharja is giving compensation based on Police reports. (July 25th 2016)

Indonesia on Alert for Revenge Attacks after Most-Wanted Militant Killed Indonesian forces are on high alert for reprisal attacks after the country’s most-wanted militant was killed this week, officials said on Wednesday (20/7). Police confirmed Santoso, among the first Indonesians to pledge loyalty to Islamic State, was killed in a gun battle with security forces on the island of Sulawesi on Monday. But officials say the threat level in the world’s largest Muslim-majority nation remains high. Rudy Sufahriadi, the police chief for central Sulawesi, said the security operation in Poso, where the U.S. designated “terrorist” Santoso had been hiding, would continue. “There is a possibility of a backlash,” he told Reuters by phone. “They are not terrorists if they do not take revenge.” Chief Security Minister Luhut Pandjaitan told reporters in Jakarta operations would be intensified in regions considered hotbeds for radicalism. Around 20 members of Santoso’s Mujahidin Indonesia Timur remain in hiding in the jungles of Sulawesi, where Indonesia has been running a major security operation for years. A team of police and military personnel also shot a man believed to be Santoso’s right-hand man on Monday, a move officials say will weaken the group. President Joko Widodo last year stepped up efforts to capture or kill Santoso, ordering the military to support thousands of police scouring the jungles where he was hiding. The effort included fighter jets and warships. The majority of Indonesians are moderate Muslims but militants have launched sporadic attacks over the past 15 years. (July 20th 2016) Fake Vaccine Scam Will see Improved Pharmaceutical Industry: President Jokowi The recent revelation of the circulation of fake vaccines will offer the necessary momentum to improve the governance mechanism of the pharmaceutical industry in the country, according to President Jokowi. The president made the statement while visiting the Ciracas community health center in East Jakarta on Monday (18/7). The president has instructed his staff, including the national police chief and head of the criminal investigation department, to continue to conduct detailed examination into the fake vaccine network and manufacturers to prevent recurrence of such incidents in future. The head of state has called on the public to stay calm as investigation into the cases of fake vaccines would take time and should be carried out carefully. Earlier, Jokowi had said that the production, distribution, and marketing of fake vaccines is an extraordinary crime, and therefore, the perpetrators must be given stringent punishment. “This is an extraordinary crime. If our children are not vaccinated, it will have long-term ill effects on our human resources,” the president noted, adding that the practice had been rampant for 12 years, thus it must be thoroughly investigated. (July 18th 2016) French Pokémon Go player Arrested on Indonesian Military Base Indonesian police say they have detained a French man who trespassed on a military base while playing the augmented reality game Pokémon Go. Romain Pierre, 27, was arrested in Cirebon but was freed when police realized he had unintentionally entered base. A spokesman for West Java police said Romain Pierre, 27, was caught at a checkpoint on Monday evening after initially running away when challenged by security guards at the military complex in Cirebon. Pierre was released a few hours later because it became apparent “he unintentionally entered the complex as he was hunting Pokémon while jogging,” the police

spokesman, Col Yusri Yunus, said on Tuesday. “Pokémon Go,” which uses Google Maps and a smart phone to overlay reality with Pokémon creatures, has been a blockbuster hit in the US and other countries where it is available. It has not been officially released in Indonesia but is already popular. The cabinet secretary, Pramono Agung, told reporters last week he had captured a number of Pokémon at the presidential palace in Jakarta, the Indonesian capital. The governor of Jakarta has said it could be used to boost tourism to the city. But some security officials have voiced worries that the game could pose a security threat. Police said Pierre works for a company in Jakarta and was visiting Cirebon, about 190km (118 miles) east of the capital. (July 19th 2016) Indian Tourist Dies after Fall From Banana Boat in Tanjung Benoa Shankar Ramnani, a 58-year-old Indian tourist has reportedly died after falling from a banana boat in Benoa Bay, Bali on Sunday (24/7). Ramnani fell from the Banana boat while it was being pulled by a speed boat in the waters of Tanjung Benoa at around 13:00. It is alleged that the man was unable to swim, so after falling from the boat, he drowned. It is not clear whether the victim was wearing the standard life jacket at the time of the incident. Ramnani was rushed to a hospital, but apparently could not be saved. According to local police an investigation has been initiated to look deeper into the tourist’s death. (July 25th 2016) Woman Has Half of Pancreas Removed After Suspected Methanol Poisoning A young Australian woman has had emergency surgery to remove half her pancreas after she is suspected of suffering methanol poisoning from drinking cheap liquor during a night out in Bali. To make maters worse, Perth woman Jen Nielson’s insurance expired on the day tragedy struck after she had decided to extend her holiday on the Indonesian island, a Western Australian media reports. Yesterday she remained in a serious condition in Siloam Hospital but faces medical bills up to $50,000. It is suspected she was poisoned by methanol served in drinks at a Kuta bar. The next day Ms Neilson thought she was just experiencing a terrible hangover. Throughout the day she became increasingly ill and after being admitted to hospital underwent emergency surgery. Ms Neilson’s mother Jenny wrote on Facebook that it had been a “horrible, extremely emotional week” for her family. Ms Neilson’s friend Lilian Tagliari said the 25-year-old “will need to spend a lot more money after the surgery and is being told she will need to stay in hospital for a long time”. Methanol poisoning from drinking alcohol is not uncommon in Bali and can be fatal. The Australian government’s Smart Traveler website warns of the risks and recommends that tourists only drink at “reputable licensed premises and avoid home made alcoholic drinks”. “You should be aware that the labeling on bottles may not be accurate and that substitution of contents can occur,” the website says.

Something’s Missing Young Australians and alcohol have a habit of not mixing very well. It’s a part of the national kaleidoscope that fractures the preferred public image of the land down under and reveals the reality of Australia today. It’s not only the blokes, though it seems to be mostly them, perhaps a tedious product of the testosterone to brain imbalance that marks certain kinds of young men everywhere. Young women on a blinder are an ugly sight as well. It’s not just an Australian problem, though that’s the bit of it that’s most visible in Bali. It is a Western or Western-influenced phenomenon, fuelled by relative wealth – relatively, that is, against global means – and these societies’ inability or unwillingness to insist on individual common sense, or to instil a sense that obligation is the necessary obverse of entitlement. You don’t have to be a reactionary neo-con to press that point. Karl Marx puts it nicely. Hedonism as such is valuable, since it reflects the fact that all life is not necessarily solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short in the Hobbesian sense. There’s nothing wrong with having fun. But you do need a functioning conscience and a degree of social awareness to enjoy yourself sensibly; and as we too frequently see, these attributes are often missing in those infantile idiots who come to notice. We are all apt to be foolish at times, particularly when not fully formed. There’s a week in London in 1965, for example, that your diarist simply has never been able to remember, though it certainly didn’t involve brawling on a plane. But even unremembered, it is a continuing once-only lesson. It’s better not to be a bloody idiot. There was an altercation on a Jetstar flight from Australia to Phuket in Thailand recently. It was one of such blind stupidity that the aircraft captain felt compelled to divert his flight to Bali, where the miscreants were offloaded and handed over to the authorities. One of this dopey collective later told his friends on Facebook of the events, in a way that clearly showed he hadn’t learned a thing from the booze-fuelled affray, which even if not a participant he had failed to stop. He possibly doesn’t know what contrition is and probably couldn’t spell the word anyway. It was a lol, he said, that they’d been taken off the plane at Ngurah Rai at gunpoint. Yair, mate, lots of laughs! Did your conscience prick you over the expense and inconvenience you caused? Nah; didn’t think so. Come back and see Bali properly when you and your friends have grown up. That’s if you ever do.

Meowvellous Villa Kitty at Lodtundah near Ubud is Rp35 million better off – essential funds needed to refurbish the premises – after a very successful benefit night on Jul. 21. That’s good news. Elizabeth Henzell at VK does a great job in a much-needed area of animal welfare. Villa Kitty is now just Rp10 million short of the total it needs to complete its refurbishment. By all accounts it was a great night at Indus, the Janet DeNeefe eatery with the great view of the green spaces around Ubud. The night was marked by the first appearance in Ubud of chief VK benefactor Robert Elliot, who has been funding the NGO from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast since 2009. He got a loud collective purr for his presence. Villa Kitty’s Facebook page has the full honours list from the night, but we’d like to especially mention Marta Valbuena, who not only donates a percentage of sales of her designer clothes – the girls say they’re fabulous – to Villa Kitty but is also frequently seen around Ubud on her motorbike on street feeding missions for needy dogs and cats. These days she rescues kittens as well as puppies. Henzell has had extra volunteer support recently, which also bears mention as an example of people’s kindness. She tells us a young woman named Nancy appeared out of the blue one day and asked if she could help. She then spent three days doing just that. Henzell notes: “It was so much fun to have someone to chat to in my ‘office’.” Regular VK supporter Lyn Dargan has made a new range of Villa Kitty T-shirts, by the way. They’re available at Villa Kitty.

Time Traveller It used to be said that photographs never lie. This was never the case, of course; it was merely another example of the multitude of ways humans can find to fool themselves or others. The point at the time was that while words may be crafted to obscure truth, and frequently are, a photograph is as close to the actuality of something as it is possible to get. Then along came Photoshop and other means of altering

digital data. Two digits instantly went up to veracity. Don’t believe everything you read (or by extension see) on the Internet, as several funny memes claim Abraham Lincoln once advised. From this we must presume he did so only some time after his fatal meeting with the actor John Wilkes Booth at the Ford Theater in Washington on the night of Apr. 15, 1865. We must assume further, one supposes, that there is an afterlife in which the dearly departed actually bother about us at all. That is something that requires additional suspension of belief. But no matter: all that’s for many more millennia of debate; or, perhaps, the return of the prodigal souls. On a more immediate and essentially temporal level, it is said that Bali is a place of vastly different parallel realities. This is certainly true. There is the “real Bali”, which tourists and enthusiasts are invited to explore among the peasants of the rice fields and woodlands. If in the party crowd in another “real Bali” – the party Bali – there are individuals who care, the ancient rites of Balinese Hinduism can still be experienced in the traditional villages and banjars of the overrun south. There’s a third “real Bali”. That’s the real Bali of developers and their publicly employed facilitators, that acquisitive cabal whose privileged and protected members will bend any rule they can’t just ignore so that like Ozymandias they can put up things that the elements and deficient engineering will then destroy. Though in Bali this tends to take rather less time than monumental self-statuary in the Egyptian desert would consider anywhere near acceptable. Happily, there are opportunities to escape from immediate reality, even if only temporarily, and to immerse oneself in the art and skill of photographers whose craft permits them to magically capture moments in time. There are many such moments in Bali and some of these have been depicted in the work of Bali-based British photographer Michael Johnsey.

C/NV/U-25 May 16

The therapeutic value of one addict helping another is without parallel

C/NV/I-02 Sept. 15

He has an exhibition at Odd, a gallery in Canggu. It’s titled Moments, opened on Jul. 29, and runs through to Aug. 11. Johnsey says that photographs are not only images but also soulful. They capture the moment and invite reflection on all manner of things. The works are stunning. Do get along to the show if you can.

Best Practice BIMC Hospital Nusa Dua, which in October 2014 won international accreditation from the Australian Council on Healthcare Standards International, has just passed (with flying colours) its mandatory periodic review by the ACHSI. When it won initial endorsement two years ago it was one of only two hospitals in Southeast Asia to hold that status, and the only one in Indonesia. In the latest review, done by the ACHS’s assessors, Dr Maria Strickland and Professor Marc Tennant, the hospital achieved “mastery” level from the initial survey. The review is an on-site analysis and survey aimed at maintaining the accreditation standards for continuous improvement in quality, safety and service. The ACHSI provides a range of accreditation services applying to the specific needs of each organization, using internationally recognized standards that are focused on key health care attributes. The Australian Council on Healthcare Standards is recognized as the leading health care accreditation body in Australia and now provides an overseas quality healthcare accreditation program through ACHSI, which was established in 2005.

We Break a Rule Back in the old, dim, distant days, when self-promotion was viewed as vulgar, journalists wrote about the news rather than insisting on being part of it, and editors’ names were hardly never known and, if they were, almost never mentioned, an event such as this might never have occurred. We make an additional appearance in this edition of the Bali Advertiser, in the excellent Siapa column, where locally based persons judged to be of interest appear and answer questions about their life and times. It is Hector’s first such outing in half a century of scribbling. He generally prefers the quiet calm of The Cage and almost always insists on someone placing his nighty-night cloth over it when anything resembling limelight is judged an imminent risk.
