Christmas Shopping & Summer Fun All Rolled into One

If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you! Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.

fun. Children get the opportunity to try their luck at ten pin bowling or ride the slides to enjoy some relief from the summer heat. You may not yet hear the jingling of sleigh bells but let me tell you, Christmas is just around the corner, holiday time is hotting up and it’s your chance to get sorted for the silly season. The end of term is fast approaching and as always, the Junior Sports Academy and The Canggu Club have organised a fantastic afternoon to celebrate the end of another successful and sporty season along with the start of school holidays. Yippee! Friday December 18th will feature an afternoon of entertainment with the JSA presentation and performance party in conjunction with yuletide celebrations, carols to sing along to and the very popular Christmas Market Bazaar. Believe me, if last term’s market was anything to go by, I’ll be able to knock over all of my Christmas shopping in one fell swoop! There’s rumoured to be some extra tasty treats also available in time for the festive season. Now that’s my kind of retail therapy! The market will kick off from midday and guests can browse through the stalls in the shaded comfort of the marquee. There will be presentations from all of the Junior Academy sports in the cooler part of the afternoon, with an opportunity for parental participation and a chance for Mum and Dad to join in the fun and show the kids what they’re made of. Finish the term in the style of summer with a BBQ dinner

and a sing along with friends as you get into the spirit of the season with some Christmas carols. Word has it The Canggu Club’s home grown talent might even provide some musical musings as part of the evening’s entertainment line up. The kids can then recline into a bean bag and conclude the evening with a Christmas movie on the big screen.

But don’t panic if your pint sized family members aren’t that keen on sports. Cubby House Kids’ Club is also offering a holiday program for 3 to 12 year olds throughout December and January for crafty kids! For just IDR 200,000 ++ per four hour session (you can choose from 9am - 1pm or 1pm - 5pm), your children will be thoroughly entertained with a series of awesome arts and crafts sessions.

School days done and dusted for December and Christmas days off a distant memory, many parents will be wondering how to entertain their cherubs for the remainder of the holidays (not all of us have the luxury of a month long vacation!) Luckily, JSA’s holiday camps commence from January 4th and January 11th. As usual, kids can enrol for the entire week’s activities or simply drop in for a day at a time. Holiday camps run each day from 9am until 3pm. Participants are engaged in a variety of sports and leisure activities throughout the day under the constant supervision of a team of talented and fully qualiﬁed sporting professionals. A nutritious lunch and morning and afternoon snacks are also included in the price.

December’s program runs from the 7th until Christmas Eve and includes such activities as Christmas decoration, tree and card making, creating gifts for friends and family and designing dream catchers. Sessions will be back in full swing in the New Year from January 4th with a program bursting at the seams with fun stuff like magic sand craft, jewellery making, kite design and even a dance contest. Session prices include a meal and a drink and the kids get to take home the fruits of their labour!

This holiday season’s line up of activities will include the usual sporting suspects such as soccer, swimming, gymnastics, basketball, dance, tennis, trampolining and AFL along with two new sports, netball and tag rugby! Not just a day of sports, JSA holiday programs also encourage skill development, team building and good ol’ fashioned

For full details regarding pricing and holiday camp schedules, simply check out the Junior Sports Academy website: jsabali.com . If you are not already familiar with JSA’s sporting programs or vacation camps, the end of term presentation and market day at the Canggu Club on December 18th is a terriﬁc opportunity to see the Academy in action. Don’t forget to pack your purse to take advantage of some pre Christmas bargains at the bazaar! Jalan Canggu Club, Canggu Bali info@cangguclub.com

Lantern lights up Petitenget with SE Asian Flavours

dish in order to nail the traditional ﬂavours of their origin and take diners on a trip through South East Asia via their tastebuds!

Always on the lookout for fantastic Asian ﬂavours, I was excited to come across new restaurant, Lantern last week in Petitenget. Hard to miss with its sunny yellow scenery, Lantern is the new culinary offering from the owners of the popular Bo and Bun in Seminyak.

Visiting Lantern at lunch time meant I didn’t want something too heavy in the heat of the day and after considerable deliberation I chose the char-kwetiau to take me back to the street stalls of Malaysia. I was not disappointed. My mixture of noodles and sprouts arrived and the aroma was enough to evoke memories of the Penang markets. With just enough spiciness to raise a sweat, this dish sported the same heady ﬂavours as the traditional hawker’s wok and tossed through my noodles were a few juicy prawns and some smoky slices of sausage. De-lish!!

Vastly different decor to its sister restaurant, Lantern offers cheerful ambience with a terrace of marble topped wooden tables and comfy yellow cane lounges. Two rows of rather funky kuning coloured lamps resembling the little lad from the Pixar logo line the terrace area, leading the way to a long cool interior with high white walls sporting a clever black vine mural. Somebody with an excellent sense of space has designed the layout of this resto, making the most of a somewhat small area with intimate tables for two along the wall and the kitchen actually located upstairs! Very clever as this keeps the heat out of the dining area and maximises table space (quite likely to keep floor staff very fit also!!!) Its soft opening menu really is a fusion of flavours from South East Asia, tempting tastebuds with dishes from Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Bali. There are tapas to share like the 18 hour pork belly bites - sinful but sooo tasty, twice

Even if you are not fond of a touch of heat on your tastebuds, Lantern’s menu offers numerous options for those with a chilli free palate and there’s always the grilled banana and vanilla gelato or Thai tea creme brûlée to cool you down for dessert. Seriously too good to miss! cooked Korean chicken wings or tiger prawns served with a spicy raw sambal. Hot! If you simply can’t make a decision, sample a selection with their platter of half servings aptly named - ‘Try Everything’. Ok, if you insist….. For something more substantial, select from the braises, noodles and grilled dishes like the 24 hours short ribs or the 12 hour pho. Are we sensing a common theme here??? Clearly a lot of hours of preparation are dedicated to each

Market for Borneo a Successful Conclusion to Kidscutpalmoil Day!

The very ﬁrst Kidscutpalmoil Day was held at Canggu Community School on Monday November 30th in an effort to raise awareness about the calamitous effects of conﬂict palm oil farming on the fragile ecosystems of Sumatra and Borneo. The action group initiated by Bali school children nominated November 30th at CCS a day to further educate and inform the school community kicked off the fundraising day by inviting everyone to donate a minimum of IDR 10,000 to participate in a free dress day. Those

Prices are reasonable with ninety percent of dishes on the menu well under 100K which means you can afford to sample several, or just keep coming back until you’ve completed the whole culinary journey like I have every intention of doing! Located on Jln Raya Petitenget 17E, Lantern are open from 10am until 11pm daily. For bookings, contact them on, +62 361 733192

involved were encouraged to dress in ﬁery colours to symbolise the peat ﬁres which continue to burn out of control in areas such as Central Kalimantan.

typically streamy November afternoon, the youngsters at the fruit smoothie stall certainly worked up a sweat ﬁlling orders for thirsty shoppers and the line up in front of the snack stall indicated that sweet treats were also a favourite on the day.

Not just an opportunity to get out of uniform for the day, students also organised a Market for Borneo in the multi function hall at the high school campus. A whole swag of environmentally conscious kids spent their lunch hour setting up tables piled high with numerous items of pre-loved clothing, toys and books along with some tasty snacks, including

Apart from donated goods, most of the items on sale were made by the students themselves including eco friendly products such as palm oil free bath bombs and bath soaps. The Kidscutpalmoil Campaign was also well represented with coffee cups, stickers and soaps bearing their logo and if T-shirt sales were anything to go buy, these Kidscutpalmoil tops will be next week’s must have fashion item.

Year 2W’s very own version of palm oil free peanut butter! One of the student’s talented mums, Annie provided the secret recipe and the kids did the rest. The end result was truly delicious, environmentally friendly and the general consensus was that it was best enjoyed slathered over cucumber and celery sticks! Once the hard work was done and the stalls were set, it was time for trading. The crowds streamed in and there was a rush reminiscent of a Boxing Day Sale as prospective customers jostled for books, toys and clothing. Being a

At my time of departure, funds from the afternoon were still being tallied, but if crowds were anything to go by, I’d hazard a guess that the organisers would be more than happy with the result. All proceeds from the market day in addition to those raised from free dress donations will go directly to Outrop to assist with the Orang utan Tropical Peatland Project and to the ﬁreﬁghters in Central Kalimantan to help purchase much needed equipment to keep the continuing blaze in the peatlands under control.

Solemen and Spice School

A winning Combination Spice Seminyak is a learning and play centre that caters for children from the age of 14 months to 5 years. The name is a clever acronym that effectively sums up this established Early Learning Centre’s philosophy and approach to inclusive and holistic education - Social, Physical, Inspirational and Creative Early learners! For some time now, it has been Spice playgroup director Jolene William’s aim to coordinate a day where this popular learning centre joined forces with another inspirational movement - Solemen, to create a day whereby children from both got together to have some serious fun. Saturday November 21st’s Festival Fair Day at the Spice School turned out even better than she could have hoped for. The brief was to turn the school grounds into a kids’ wonderland in order to entertain ten young Solemen children along with some of their ‘Solebuddies’ from the Spice School as well as scores of guests who attended the day. Planning began way back with Solemen volunteer Barb Somerville sketching detailed market stall designs. With a band of happy helpers she turned her market model into glittery life sized reality to totally transform Spice School into a traditional fair ground with a columned arch entrance,

a rainbow of hand made bunting between the trees, multi coloured tables, skirted stalls and a vibrant scene set to rival any festival fair day! The stage already set, Jolene William and her tireless team worked together to coordinate a fabulous day ﬁlled with market stalls and music and magical entertainment. Local community and businesses rallied together to contribute their talents and the children were thoroughly entertained with face painting, magic tricks, representatives from Bali Bird Park, a ﬁnger skateboard ramp and balloon artists. Five talented youngsters from the Spice School got together to sing a musical medley from Disney cartoons and didn’t they just look the part dressed as mermaids from Anila Tails! The number of vendors vying for stalls on the day was truly overwhelming thus offering an attractive selection of

Work Xmas Parties With the WOW Factor! As another year draws to a close, it’s always nice to acknowledge everyone’s efforts and ensure those long office hours over the past twelve months have not gone unnoticed. What better way to show how much you appreciate your loyal hard working employees than by throwing them a Christmas party to remember! Now I don’t mean the kind of boring office bash where one feels obliged to mingle around the mixers and make polite small talk until you can steal a sneaky exit…Yawn! Why not let the crew at The Canggu Club plan a party that will deﬁnitely make a splash! With a variety of exciting venues, activities and catering packages, you can be sure they will be able to organise an end of year event to accommodate any sized group or gathering. Extensive facilities with no less than 14 different event spaces across a sprawling 4 hectare estate ensures that Bali’s premier entertainment and sporting venue is the ideal location to host your next staff shindig. Whether it’s an intimate group of a few or a cast of over

one thousand, The Canggu Club have a party plan that will suit. Of course they have a variety of food and beverage packages to choose from, but why not add that X factor and treat your staff to a cool afternoon on the slides at Splash or generate some good natured competitive spirit with a lively game of dodgeball on the tramps at Bounce. If that’s a little too energetic for your crew, you can always grab a few lanes at Strike Bowling then compare teams with the most spares to create a bit of camaraderie amongst your colleagues. The securely fenced soccer ﬁeld lends itself to whole host of outdoor team building activities and there are numerous undercover options so wet weather can’t rain on your party parade. There’s really no reason for your staff Christmas party or get together to be a staid affair that’s light on the laughs when Canggu Club can provide these types of entertainment options! Not just for staff junkets, The Canggu Club has everything you could hope to ﬁnd for kids’ parties, corporate events, end of term celebrations and more! Just tell them what

kid friendly merchandise and tasty treats to satisfy hot and hungry visitors who attended the market. Refreshments from Gelato Factory, Mr Ice and Solemen partner, Bootstrap Coffee provided welcome relief on the stiﬂing November afternoon as guests scanned the stalls for a bargain. The Gojek Photo Booth at the fair entrance was quite the attraction and the children were of course delighted by a surprise visit from Solemen ambassador and actress, Tamara Bleszynski. The highlight of the afternoon was to witness SPICE and SOLEMEN kids sit side by side, squealing with excitement as the magicians mesmerised them with trick after trick. Huge thanks must also go to the tribe of volunteers who made the afternoon a resounding success along with the numerous donations of pre-loved toys and other items by children from the school. Proceeds from the day went to the Solemen Foundation and will most certainly contribute a great deal toward helping Solemen kids and their families. It really does go to show that a little bit of love goes a long way and the Spice School Festival Fair Day proved to be a wonderful start to the Christmas season where the gift is deﬁnitely in the giving! www.seminyakspice.com www.facebook.com/SeminyakSpice www.solemen.org www.facebook.com/IndonesiaSoleMen/ you are after and let them plan your day right down to colour schemes and party themes. No need to rack your brain for ideas to entertain the masses, all the hard work is done for you and you just need to show up on the day and look like the awesome boss that you are! Let’s face it, everyone loves a party and Christmas is the ideal time to show your staff, school mates and siblings how much you care with a group gathering complete with all the trimmings tailored just for them. Contact the team at events@cangguclub.com or phone them on +62 361 8483939 or +62 828 971939 39 to plan your holiday party today. ’Tis the season to be merry and really folks, how cool would it be to have a water slide at your next work do!

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris

Frangipani Cuttings and Composting ‘Dear Dr. Kris what is the best way to take a frangipani cutting, do I just put it straight into the ground, I have heard that sometimes it could be better to let the cut branch dry out before moving into a pot, and then how long should I wait until I plant it into the ground? Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions, Barbara’ Frangipani are easy for the novice gardener to produce new plants from cuttings. Taking cuttings is fun and rewarding and it’s a great little science experiment if you have kids. They ¿nd it amazing that you can grow another plant simply by cutting a branch and sticking it in the ground. Well it’s a little more involved than that, but there’s not much to do really. If you have a strong good looking plant taking a cutting is a very good way to replicate it. If propagating from a branch take a 30-50 cm length, choose one which does not have any Àowers, and remove excess leaves other than those close to the tip. Also make sure your cutting comes from a plant free of disease, otherwise the whole operation may be doomed from the start. It is true that frangipani cuttings will take much better if left out for a few weeks to allow the wound or cut to heal over and dry. Make a clean cut, then leave the cutting aside for a few weeks in a dry location out of direct sun. You must allow the wound to dry before planting. Once ready to plant, use a sandy soil mix with good drainage, avoid regular potting mix, or straight compost. Sand mixed with compost or coco peat works well. Put the soil mix and cutting into a pot, water regularly and leave in a warm shady spot out of direct sunlight and sheltered from strong winds. Seaweed tea will also help to stimulate new root growth. When new foliage growth starts to appear at the tips you will know that new roots are beginning to establish down below, and with a little more care you will be able to transplant your new frangipani into a larger pot or directly into the garden. Frangipani are drought tolerant once established, but younger plants will require regular watering and care. Top dressing

with compost and organic mulch will help but make sure it is kept clear of the trunk to avoid rot and fungus. Once you have mastered frangipani from cutting, then you can move onto the finer arts, such as grafting different types of frangipani together ending up with various coloured Àowers on the one plant! ‘I’ve heard that you shouldn’t put oranges or orange peels into the compost bin, somebody told me that it will kill the worms and won’t decompose. Is this true? I eat oranges regularly for breakfast and I hate to waste that peel and ¿ll up my trash. What do you think? Thanks, Dave’ The main things to avoid when composting would be meat, ¿sh, cooking oils, too much bread, pasta or rice, as you will most likely attract vermin to your pile or bin, and nobody wants rats in their backyard. A common reason for not adding orange peel to the compost forever doing the rounds is that citrus peels would kill off the worms and bene¿cial bugs. I am glad to report that this is absolutely false, somewhat of an urban myth, you can put any citrus into your compost and it will be bene¿cial, oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits etc. Citrus peels can take some time to break down, so don’t overload it, you will need to keep the compost in balance, if it’s a few peels a day it should be ¿ne, just cover over with some dry leaves. If you were going to add whole fruit then I would make an effort to cut it into smaller pieces to assist in faster decomposition.

You can compost citrus peels just not in huge quantities. One of the ¿rst mistakes people make with composting is a lack of variety which can lead to problems with aeration and subsequently decomposition of the pile. For example, if you throw in a large bag of kitchen scraps all at once you will produce an anaerobic or oxygen free environment, which will more likely become a stinking slimy mass full of maggots, rather than a healthy balanced decomposing compost full of worms and other bene¿cial organisms. Make sure when composting to develop alternate layers, always separate heavy nutrient rich layers such as kitchen scraps and fresh grass clippings with lighter airy materials such as dried leaves, twigs, dried grass clippings or shredded newspaper. Also alternate between particle sizes, that way there will be air trapped within the heap allowing for oxygen to be transferred between layers. Regularly turning will also stimulate airÀow and aid decomposition. You do need to occasionally water your compost, if it is too dry it will take a very long time to decompose. It will break down more rapidly if located in a warm sunny spot and kept moist. The secret to good compost is a balance between brown and green materials, oxygen, moisture and heat. If you are still having trouble getting the air through the compost you can aerate with a PVC pipe drilled with many holes. Send the pipe down into the centre of the heap and leave it in place. Oxygen will diffuse through the holes and you will notice an improvement in results. When working with compost take the usual hygiene precautions. Keep any cuts covered, or wear gloves. Wash your hands well after handling any compost and make sure you are up to date with your tetanus shots. On a ¿nal note, to hasten the composting process you can add compost activators which will help to speed up the process. Items such as dry grass clippings, seaweed tea or even a bucket of your last batch of compost will help. The worms, bugs and microorganisms will move in of their own accord, if you build it they will come!

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

SALT OF THE SEA

It’s hot, very hot here on the shore at Les. Visiting the north coast of Bali is like going back in time. Off the main road life is slow and simple. The people are mostly poor, living by ¿shing and subsistence farming. I wander through coconut groves, the dry dust silk-fine between my toes, escorted by well-fed, friendly dogs. It’s so hot that even the ducks and swayback black pigs are snoozing in the shade. Until a few years ago few visitors ever came here. But things are starting to happen here in sleepy Les. From the pebbled shore a vast blue sea rolls north and weathered wooden ¿shing boats are pulled up all along the shallow bay. A handful of communities in Bali still harvest sea salt. Just a few metres from the sea are distinctive squares of raked earth - the territory of the 20 salt farmers still practicing this traditional craft in Les.

This is wonderful salt, by the way. The soil filtration mineralizes it while removing impurities and the Àavour is excellent. The chunky grains make it perfect for sprinkling over sweets or savouries. The jury is still out regarding the amount of salt we should be including in our diets. Three recent studies in the New England Journal of Medicine indicated that too much salt is bad for us, but too little salt can be bad for us too. It’s important to get enough high quality natural salt in our diets here in the tropics, where we lose so many electrolytes through perspiration. And by the way sea salt, table salt, kosher salt, Àavoured/ smoked salt, fleur de sel, Black Hawaiian Sea Salt, ‘organic salt’ and Pink Himalayan Rock Salt are all basically the same chemical, sodium chloride. Only trace amounts of other elements vary. The mineral content of the different salts is not a compelling reason to choose one salt

over the other because the amounts are negligible compared to what we get from a sensible diet. So buy local, please. Right beside the salt farms of Les is another sea-focused initiative. For many years the 120 Les ¿shers had been using potassium cyanide to stun the ornamental reef ¿sh, which eventually killed the coral. As the ¿sh disappeared and the reefs faded, the tourists who were beginning to come to the area to snorkel complained that there was nothing to be seen. (see http://baliadvertiser.biz/articles/ greenspeak/2003/¿shnapped.html). About a decade ago Pak Eka, one of the ¿shers and head of his Fisherfolk Group, persuaded the others to stop using cyanide. With the help of the Marine Aquarium Council, several NGOs and Cipto Gunawan they learned how to dive safely and how to handle the ¿sh more gently so that fewer died on their way to market. Most of the ¿shers now seek tuna, squid and other food ¿sh from the reefs.

For generations these farmers have been labouriously making salt from sea water. Each has four squares of earth It took years of research and the help of NGOs LINI and with a high round bamboo ¿lter about two metres across Sea Communities to ¿nd a successful system of arti¿cial at their junction.

Permaculture gardens will grow vegetables for the project restaurant and to feed the students lunch. The eco-tourism packages will be improved and cultural conservation (gamelan, dance and weaving) enhanced in this unique Balinese community where everyone is the same caste. So drowsy little Les is slowly, sustainably, putting itself on the map. Please support it by buying the salt and sending your guests there for an increasingly rare glimpse of a traditional community in Bali.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Iya Pak Bos! If you’re from a socialist country like my homeland of New Zealand where pretty much everyone is on an equal footing, titles have become a thing of the past. Many kids call their parents by their first name, and this goes the same for superiors in the workplace. ‘Boss’ is used only in the third person to mean “S/he’s my boss” and no one says “Hi boss”, “Thanks boss” or anything in that vein. In fact, it would sound sarcastic to do so. In Indonesia, it’s a bit of both. As you may have realized, Indonesians, particularly Balinese, are playful people, seldom dead serious, and like to keep things ‘light’. Calling someone ‘bos’ is a bit like this: it’s a title of reverence, but it’s also used between friends to mean “you are acting like/or I’m treating you like your superior to me”. While the use of the word ‘bos’ (English = boss) in Bali is a fairly recent phenomenon, Jakartans have been using the expression in daily life for decades. Through TV and huge number of Jakartans living in Bali, it’s hardly surprising that it eventually penetrated lil ole Bali. The word has economic connotations: the one with the money is the ‘bos’ (hence most expats being called ‘bos’ here). ‘Bos besar’ (big boss) is in another league: this refers to business elite who have large companies, whose wealth is seemingly infinite and who reside in another world from most Indonesians. They have hundreds of staff and rarely communicate or meet with those at the bottom of the food chain: they have managers, assistant managers and HRD departments to do this.

C/Ho/I-25 Nov 15

While Indonesians often complain about mistreatment from their bosses, there very much is still a culture of “Asal bapak senang” which roughly translates as “as long as the boss is happy” and suggests that bosses are normally men. While Indonesians never use the first person to call a woman ‘bos’, there is the more recent phenomenon of ‘Bu bos’ (lady bos) which my sister-n-law uses jokingly to refer to my Balinese wife. Until Indonesia becomes an egalitarian society, if you’re a foreign guy living here get used to being thought of as an entity residing somewhere near the top of the pyramid.

“What is this electricity stuff anyway?” Just to remind you of a boring fact I told you about long ago - the word electricity takes it’s name from the Latin ‘electrum’ which in turn comes from the Greek ‘elektron’ which of course means ‘amber’.

As we have said different materials have their own electrical charge which can be either positive or negative, these we can list in order depending on their normal level of electrical charge. We call this an ‘electrochemical series’.

Amber? Yes amber. You see the ancient Greeks (this was a bit before the austerity crisis in the days when the Greeks could still afford to buy things) had a habit of rubbing things. They noticed that if you rubbed amber with something furry (such as a dead cat) it attracted small objects to say nothing of suspicious looks from the neighbours.

If you look at our list all of these are elements which means they are fundamental building blocks in our world and they exist as atoms. Most are metals and the higher in the list they are then the more negative they are and the more active they are. Metals lower in the list are more positive, less active and more stable, these more stable metals we call ‘noble’ metals.

So what is going on here? Find yourself a comfortable chair, a nice cup of tea and a few panadol and we’ll start at the very beginning. As we all know everything is made up of ‘atoms’ and atoms are pretty small, they are even smaller than a mosquito’s belly button. You’ll need a very big magnifying glass to see one. Everything around us (including ourselves) is made up of atoms. There are only 118 known types of atoms that make up everything we know. These are the ‘elements’ which combine in different ways to form ‘molecules’. We all know that water molecules are formed by combining 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen. It was thought that atoms are the smallest particles in the universe but not so. The more the physicists looked into their magnifying glasses the more and smaller particles they found. Atoms are made up of even smaller particles, a large one, the ‘nucleus’, with smaller ones including ‘protons’ and ‘electrons’. Now we get to the interesting bit. The protons each have a positive electrical charge while the electrons have a negative electrical charge. The nucleus has no charge at all. Now if we add up the protons positive electricity and we take away the total of the electrons negative electricity we find that an atom has a ‘net electrical charge’. Different types of atoms have different numbers of protons and electrons and so they each have their own net electrical charge and, as atoms combine to make up molecules of different types of matter, the molecules of different materials also have their own net electrical charge. If you are keeping up with this go and get another cup of tea and we’ll continue, if you are totally lost by now or perhaps bored out of your brain because you know all this already you might want to go and read the obituaries column. We’ll carry on. Protons tend to be very loyal and stick close to mum (the nucleus) but those recalcitrant little blighters the electrons are always a pain in the arteries and, like naughty little boys they are always on the move. They don’t stick close to mum and can even be ‘free electrons’ and move between atoms. The flow of electrons can be quite useful at times, we know of it as ‘electricity’. A flow of electrons (like water along a pipe) that we know of as an ‘electrical current’. If we collect electrons in a single place we have ‘electrical potential’ and the more electrons we collect the greater the potential. We measure electrical potential in ‘volts’. Everything around us contains electricity and the movement of electrons makes life possible. Without the ability to move electrons around our brains could not give instructions to our body parts (I suspect that would make life rather difficult). There is one more thing we need to know which is that, unlike humans, in electricity ‘like’ does not attract ‘like’. If we take two things that both have a positive charge they will tend to repel each other, while things with opposite positive and negative charge will be attracted to each other. Remember the old trick where you take a ballon and rub it on your chest and then ‘stick’ it on a wall. The balloon collects electrons from your jumper and becomes negatively charged, we call this ’static electricity’ of course, and it is attracted to the more positively charged wall. This is why when the Greeks rubbed amber with their dead cats the amber collected static electricity and attracted things. The Electrochemical Series

If two different metals are in electrical contact with each other, either directly touching or with some sort of conducting medium such as water connecting them, then electrons will flow from the one higher in this table towards the one that is lower. The metal the electrons flow from we call an ‘anode’ and the metal the electrons flow to is a ‘cathode’.

NC/BM/I-14 Oct 15

Corrosion What is important for us is that something else will occur - as electrons flow out of the metal it changes, it absorbs oxygen, it oxidises, that is it corrodes or, in the case of iron and steel, it rusts. So as electricity flows from one metal to another the upper one in our list will corrode while the lower one will not. You will note that gold is right at the bottom of the scale - ever seen a rusty wedding ring? Even when we dig gold out of the ground it is not rusty. This can give us all sorts of problems. If, in our plumbing system at home, we connect a piece of copper pipe to a piece of steel pipe the steel will rust far more quickly than if only steel is used. Hence that well known phrase “you might have gold taps but your pipes are rusty”. The advent of PVC pipes has removed many corrosion problems in plumbing systems. Preventing Corrosion We can, however use it to our advantage. If we bolt a piece of aluminium or magnesium onto a piece of steel and put it in sea water the aluminium (higher in the list) will corrode and will stop the steel (lower in the list) from rusting. The piece of aluminium we call a ‘sacrificial anode’ - it makes the steel into a cathode, it stops the steel from rusting and provides what we call ’cathodic protection’.

C/BM/M-11 Nov. 15

This is important because inside our electric and solar water heaters there is a piece of aluminium fastened to the inside of the water tank to stop the steel tank rusting. Water heaters are notorious for suddenly rusting out once the sacrificial anode has corroded away. Studies in Australia many years ago revealed that solar water heater tanks could be expected to rust out after about 8 years (shortly after they paid for themselves). It is wise to install a new sacrificial anode. We can stop steel rusting by painting it, the paint acts as insulation to keep the steel and its electrons away from the oxygen and water in the air. When painting steel we may add zinc (or formerly lead) to the paint, zinc in the paint corrodes first and so protects the steel. If we want to seriously protect iron and steel we galvanise it by dipping it into a tank of molten zinc. Once again the layer of zinc on the steel corrodes in preference to the steel and so protects it. Corrugated iron used for roofs was in the past usually galvanised, these days some aluminium is mixed with the zinc (this helps to stop the steel rusting if it gets scratched) and this is commonly known as ‘zinc alume’.

Email : mano@mrtrusted.asia www.mrtrusted.asia

These days more and more people are using lightweight steel for roof frames. Roofs, may have to carry a lot of weight so it is very important that roof frames do not rust and so the steel must be of good quality and it must be very well galvanised or zinc alume coated.

Some metals, such as aluminium, can be protected by ‘anodising’ them. We purposely corrode the surface of the aluminium to form a thick crust on the surface which then insulates the aluminium underneath protecting it from any further corrosion. I’ve had enough of all this negativity for one day so I’ll finish, you can take the panadol now.

The veil lifted when he started to live with his girlfriend, and she told me that he is abusive. I had heard this from others of his ex-girlfriends, but I have always been on my brother’s team. Now, after 2-3 people told me the same story, I started to doubt him. This gave me a different lens through which to view his behavior. First of all, he is never in the moment; he is always preoccupied with his smart phone. Secondly, he never listens to my dad’s advice and does what his friends tell him to do instead. Thirdly, he is a compulsive liar. Fourthly, he is abusive to girls. Moreover, I don’t think he has any plans for tomorrow; he lives only in present, throws his money away, and never saves. He never wants to join a discussion about future plans, and he once told me that he wants to be independent from the family. He forces his girlfriend to do errands for him. Except for the lies and abuse, my dad is slowly beginning to recognize my brother’s bad behavior. What I can do to be a good daughter and support my dad as best as I can? I always try to make him happy, to see that he gets vacations, etc.. On the other hand, my brother is so thickheaded, and I don’t think I can do anything to change him. But I am his sister. Is there anything I can or should do? Thank you for your time answering me. Dr. ZZ: : Each of us gets one life to live. Nobody else can live our life for us, and we cannot live anybody else’s life for them. Mother, father, son, daughter, sister, brother, cousin, best friend, neighbor, whatever the relationship, we still get only one life. Trying to help someone who doesn’t value our assistance is a useless as trying to help a tar baby out of a tar pit. Some people get so caught up in their own machinations to destroy themselves that our only option - in order not to destroy ourselves in the process - is to let them go, to give them space. We cannot save them from themselves; we do best to at least save ourselves.

1. At any moment, you, people and situations in your life are exactly the way they are. This is true whether you like it or not. 2. Resisting and fighting this causes upset. Resisting and avoiding a possible future outcome creates fear. In fear and upset, your ability to see clearly is impaired. In this state, it seems as if an external situation is causing the upset, but the upset is being caused by your fighting and resisting the situation.

Two years ago, after going to college and living in Jakarta, my brother started to live with us. We heard that he was struggling with work and school, and we invited him to rejoin the family in Bali. When he arrived, he was so miserable that my dad cried when he saw him. My husband and I treated him generously, like the long lost family member he was, and gave him insights about the challenges and benefits of living in Bali. Instead of listening to any of this, however, he went his own way and did what he thought was best for himself.

Your responsibility to your father as a daughter and to your brother as a sister is first and foremost to yourself. You cannot give to anyone else from an empty cup, and you cannot help someone else if you are not first taking care of yourself. Your job is to live your life as best as you can, to offer assistance if you care to, and to let go of the outcome.

3. To handle the situation, you need action, not resisting. Resisting keeps you from seeing the action you need to take. 4. Letting go is the inner action that removes the resisting. Letting go of resisting restores your peace of mind. This in turn releases the fear and upset; so you can then take the action you need to effectively handle the situation. Without fear and upset, you become creative and able to discover solutions. Letting go removes fear and upset so that you can see what action works. 5. To dismiss fear, you have to be willing to let your worst fears come true. 6. Make peace with the way your life is. Let go of your demands and expectations for how your life “should” be. 7. Trust that no matter what happens, you will be okay. 8. Feel all the sadness of being “not okay” that this situation reactivates. Avoidance of this hurt is what is causing you to resist. The hurt you are resisting is a very specific hurt from the past. It is the hurt of not feeling good enough for anyone to love. It is the hurt of feeling too separate from All This Is to love anyone in return. Finding and healing this hurt disappears the need to resist. This hurt is responsible for all your fear, upset and self-sabotage. This hurt is responsible for all your suffering. 9. Finding and healing this hurt is one of the most important things you can do. Set yourself free. Then take the action you need to effectively handle your situation. Take whatever action you need for your life to be great. Copyright © 2015 Say What?

Are groups from China accompanied by their own guides or by Indonesian guides?

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Rony Purnama: Chinese Tour Guide

Government regulations require that Indonesian guides must accompany them. Native Chinese tour guides are not allowed to work as tour guides. The provincial government wants to protect the local labor force working as tour leaders. The Mandarin-speaking tour guides are usually Indonesian. Chinese agents based in China arrange for those guides. As soon as Chinese visitors arrive in Bali, their Indonesian guides pick them up at the airport. Do Mandarin-speaking Indonesian tour guides make a decent living?

Because of the huge numbers of Chinese arriving on Bali and the relative small number of qualified guides available, the daily salary of a Chinese Indonesian tour guide is very high. Compared with guides leading tours in other languages, they are now among the very best paid, especially during the Chinese New Year period here. Their daily wage is as much as a Balinese villager earns in a whole month.

C/Ns/G-4 Feb. 15

Is there an association that represents the interests of Chinese-Indonesian tour guides? Yes. They are members of the official Indonesian tour guide association HPI (Himpunan Pramuwisata Indonesia). The largest guide association in Bali, it’s divided into Division Mandarin (Mandarin-speaking guides), Division Jepang (Japanese-speaking guides), Division Inggris (Englishspeaking guides), etc. I Putu Rony Purnama Byron, or Rony to his friends and family, was born in 1995 in Bali. Rony is a student at the Bali Tourism Institute (STP) in Nusa Dua. His hobbies are swimming, playing games and learning new languages. Fluent in Indonesian, Chinese, Balinese and English, he earns his living as a Mandarinspeaking tour guide for RD Tours, leading groups of Chinese tourists who are visiting Bali in ever increasing numbers every year. Their number reached 330,172 in 2014, the largest number of tourists to Bali after Australia. Residents of Bali are curious about Chinese tourists who visit Bali. What’s the big attraction? Chinese think that Bali is a great place to visit for a short holiday. It has a warm climate with beautiful beaches. Bali is not a long flight from China. There are no visa hassles. They also like the relaxing and welcoming atmosphere, the friendliness, the slow pace, the fresh air, the intact and interesting culture and the strong bond that the Balinese people have with nature. What do Chinese tourists like to do here? On the top of their lists of things to do is enjoying their leisure and gathering with family while on vacation. Chinese also love shopping, shopping, shopping! As long as there are big shopping malls, you’ll see Chinese everywhere. In Bali, they are looking in particular for souvenirs like kopi luwak, batik tablecloths and handicrafts such as coconut cutlery, handmade silver and gold artifacts. Dragon-headed wood and stone carvings, symbolizing prosperity, are also very popular. Chinese visitors want to return to China with nice distinctive gifts as well as pleasant memories. What are the top tourist attractions for Chinese visitors? They follow suggestions from their friends in China who have been to Bali. Once in Bali, Chinese tourists are reluctant to explore anything new. They prefer to follow their local agents who have already arranged the group’s daily itinerary even before their departure from China. Most stay on an average of 4 days and 3 nights and are sure to visit Uluwatu, Tanah Lot and Ubud. What are the special needs of Chinese tourists to Bali? The most important to them is safety, cleanliness and warm hospitality. From a more practical point of view, it’s also important to have more public services offered and written in Mandarin - translated restaurant menus; food items in supermarkets; airport, museum and shopping mall signs and Mandarin-speaking tour guides.

What are the challenges of leading tourists from China around Bali? Mandarin language services in the hospitality industry are in great demand. We are in the very early stages of the widespread use of Mandarin in Bali. To give an example, Chinese are eager to try Balinese and Western food at restaurants, but they only go to the restaurants with Mandarin menus or with specific dishes pictured. Any other challenges facing Chinese tourists?

Another area of frustration is the communication barrier. Misunderstandings occur when Chinese want to visit tourist attractions alone. They sometimes misunderstand Englishspeaking guides when they are trying to explain about the dos & don’ts of Bali Hinduism. Their subsequent behavior can offend the Balinese, though this rarely occurs. How do they communicate with the Balinese? Chinese visitors use a lot of body language! Many have a Chinese–English dictionary app installed on their smartphones. They input the word or phrase in Chinese characters on the app, then show the English translation to their English-speaking guides, drivers, vendors and other people they talk to. Though it’s quite funny and interesting to see, it’s actually an effective way to communicate! Do Chinese also visit Bali for business purposes? Not so many Chinese business people visit Bali. They go mainly to Jakarta. The businessmen who come to Bali are usually working on a government contract or investment program. One is the biggest overseas power plant project ever commissioned by the Bali government. The state power plant (China Huadian State Power) invested in the new PLN power plant in Bali’s Buleleng Regency. The Celukan Bawang 426-megawatt coal-fired power station was completed after 3 years and was inaugurated in August of this year. The Bali government is now consulting with the Chinese to develop Chinese tourism with particular focus on Yunan and Hainan provinces.

C/BT/G-2 Sept. 15

Are Chinese tourists well liked on Bali? Local people like Chinese tourists. They are big shoppers and spend a lot of money. They also move around in groups in the evenings and don’t often go out drinking by themselves and make trouble. They’d rather go to a spa!

HECTOR’S You Could Cry Animal fan Rhonda Lepsch has for two years run a great operation called Jet Set Petz - the name came from the jet ski operation in which she’s involved at Tanjung Benoa near Nusa Dua - but it will soon be no more. It will close on Dec. 15 and its useful Facebook page will disappear. This would be sad in any circumstances, since Jet Set Petz estimates it has saved or otherwise cared for 400 dogs in the area. What makes its closure shocking is that it has been brought about by the blind indifference to anything but immediate benefit and money-grubbing that so blights Bali today.

thing, Philly Frisson, The Diary’s international cultural attaché and a girl who loves a giggle.

Lepsch lost a loved pet dog at the end of November, either poisoned or taken by dog meat traders. It was too much for her. Who could blame her for deciding that since her neighbours in Tanjung Benoa declared themselves uninterested in doing anything much at all, they were not worth bothering about? You could cry, really.

Don’t Bank on It We had a chat the other day with Susi Johnston, who remains as feisty as you’d expect a graduate cum laude of Bali’s school of hard knocks to be. The issue was land law and property ownership – it’s her specialty of course, in her case because of a criminally unfair situation – and a daylong seminar held in Kuta on Nov. 28 attended by 120 to hear about the thorny matter of foreign-owned property.

Lepsch says she knows of no rabies cases in Tanjung Benoa over the past two years that she’s been running the program. The dogs of the locality are healthy. So now they are the target of dog meat thieves and mean little people who poison other people’s pets because.. well, because they can, because they have no conscience, and because no one in authority can be bothered getting out of their air-con to stop them. Official policy, such as it is, now mandates mass killing of dogs to reduce rabies. It doesn’t work, of course, but it looks busy and it’s cheaper than doing the hard yards that would actually work, such as resuming the planned and implemented vaccination programs they abandoned when all the money ran away, and the sterilization schemes that were meant to run alongside it to humanely reduce dog numbers. Where is the provincial government in all of this? What is it doing to educate people about their responsibility for animals in their care? Nothing. It’s off finding further excuses for indolence. Where is the Association of Veterinarians Indonesia (PDHI) of Bali? Perhaps its chairman, veterinary doctor Made Restiani, would like to tell us when the PDHI will be back from being out to lunch. Bali’s spirited dogs would like to know, just as much as we would. Dharma and Karma Balinese Hinduism is different from the Indian variety. It is heavily influenced by syncretic elements from Buddhism and other faiths. But it shares many common points with its Indian originator and certainly emphasizes the same influence of Karma on human actions. So it was interesting to read the other day a scholarly outline of Hindu responsibilities for animals, their health and welfare, and their place in the world. It’s on the web at this URL if you’d like to read it, which you should: hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/essays/ animals.asp. Among other things, it makes this point: Hinduism is a compassionate religion that treats all living organisms as aspects of god with souls of their own. Hindu scriptures encourage the devout to treat all animals with respect, not to harm them, and not to subject them to cruelty or to kill them. Sacrificing animals for religious purposes is seen in Indian Hinduism as a prehistoric rite that no longer has a place in society. There is, you might say, food for thought in that. Many religions formulate the same Karmic rule, unfortunately too often observed in its breach. Among these, Christians are reminded in their scripture that you reap what you sow. Karma’s a tonic, or possibly a poison. Or to put it even more plainly, if you’re a right berk, one day you’ll pay. Pack ’Em In It’s good to see that La Gazette de Bali, the monthly newspaper for the Francophone community, is right behind the longstanding efforts of Tabanan-based PT EnviroPallets to reduce the footprint of non-reusable packaging and the plastic that is its chief component. La Gazette is required reading at The Cage. It’s always interesting, runs lots of material you mightn’t otherwise see, and is especially useful as a foil to the English-language dominance of information (not only in Bali). So it was slightly odd to read a three-year-old Jakarta story recycled on one of the virtual print platforms serving the local Anglosphere that might easily have been misunderstood as suggesting EnviroPallets is a new venture. We hadn’t seen the piece ourselves and were alerted to its presence by that inveterate reader of every-

Speaking of oddities, we were amused to read elsewhere, in the Googlish print media, the reported view of the local weather bureau that it’s been hot because the temperatures have been high and dry because it hasn’t rained. Ah, the delightful perils of instant on line translation. Still, one needs to smile, especially when the flying ants that always presage big rain are apparently still in hiding and refusing to come out to play.

Some good came from it, though nothing of immediate substance. Among things in the pipeline are possible moves to create a Hak Pakai title available for people who are in Bali only to live – retirees for example – and it’s clear that the authorities desire at least to try to clear up the mess here. Not using a nominee would be sensible. Using a Jakarta lawyer might be a good idea. These ideas will upset the perfumed, flash shirt and shiny pointed shoes brigade here. Oh dear, how sad, never mind. A Good Result Mike O’Leary of ROLE Foundation tells us the 2015 ROLE Models Charity Dinner on Nov. 21 brought in around Rp 300 million to boost funds that ROLE outlays on its groundbreaking Bali WISE effort to educate and empower marginalized Indonesian women. The event was attended by 180 and held at Rimba, hosted by Ayana Resort and Spa. Bali WISE gives students from Bali and other Indonesian islands skills education so that they may secure a worthwhile job with a fair wage to support themselves and their families. The program, which depends on corporate support from the business and hotel sector, has been running for nearly a decade. So far 762 students have graduated, 90 per cent of them finding jobs afterwards. The 180 guests at the function, who turned out in a colourful collection of Across the Archipelago traditional attire, were welcomed with cocktails at Rimba’s Orchid Tea Lounge before a five-star dinner was served in the ballroom. The Bali WISE student choir and well-known Indonesian performer Lisa Soul entertained the crowd. A silent auction offered prizes donated by sponsors and attracted enthusiastic bidders. The after party was at Unique, the property’s scenic rooftop bar. O’Leary tells us the evening beat its fundraising target.

How that problem can have been left uncorrected in the normal maintenance cycle is for others to say. Whatever is now said, the Diary says this: From our point of view the accident resulted from inexcusable negligence; it indicates a corporate attitude to a duty of care on a par with its fatally cavalier attitude to aircraft airworthiness; and Indonesia Air Asia is now on our no-fly list. We’d rather walk, thanks. The Indonesian crash investigation report, released on Dec. 1, found that crew action caused a loss of control and the stalling of the aircraft. All 162 people on board were killed. The report said flight crew action resulted in inability to control the aircraft. The situation caused a prolonged stall condition that was beyond the capability of the flight crew to recover.

Taking the rolled up towel he laughed saying “This multimillion dollar piece of equipment will improve your lower back curve.” Actually my back felt a lot more comfortable with the rolled towel in place.

B EAUTY D ISCOVERY

NAIL POLISH Nail polish (also known as nail varnish) is a lacquer that can be applied to the human fingernails or toenails to decorate and protect the nail plates. The formulation has been revised repeatedly to enhance its decorative effects and to suppress cracking or flaking. Nail polish consists of a solution of an organic polymer and other components. Traditionally, nail polish started in clear, red, pink, purple, and black. Nail polish can be found in diverse variety of colors and shades. Beyond solid colors, nail polish has also developed an array of other designs, such as crackled, glitter, Àake, speckled, iridescent, and holographic. Rhinestones or other decorative art are also often applied to nail polish. Some polish is advertised to induce nail growth, make nails stronger, prevent nails from breaking, cracking and splitting, and to even stop nail biting.

Types of Nail Polish 1. Base Coat This type of nail polish is a c l e a r, m i l k y - c o l o r e d , o r opaque pink polish formula that is used speci¿cally before applying nail polish to the nail. The purpose of it is to strengthen nails, restore moisture to the nail, and/or help polish adhere to the nail. Some base coats are marketed as “ridge ¿llers” which can create a smooth surface, and reduce the appearance the ridges that can appear on unbuffed nails. 2. Top Coat This type of nail polish is a clear colored polish formula that is used specifically after applying nail polish to the nail. It forms a hardened barrier for the nail that can prevent chipping, scratching and peeling. Many top coats are marketed as “quick-drying.” Top coats can help the underlying colored polish dry quickly as well. It gives the polish a more ¿nished and desired look. 3. Gel Gel polish is a long-lasting variety of nail polish made up of a type of methacrylate polymer. It is painted on the nail similar to traditional nail polish, but does not dry. Instead it is cured under an ultraviolet lamp or ultraviolet LED. While regular nail polish formulas typically last two to seven days before chipping, gel polish can last upwards of two weeks with proper application and home care. Gel polish can be more dif¿cult to remove than regular nail polish. It is usually gently pushed off (often with a wooden stick) after soaking the nails in acetone for eight to ¿fteen minutes. 4. Matte Matte polish is like regular polish, but has a purposely dull ¿nish rather than a shine. It can be purchased as a regular base coat in ranges of different colors. Matte nail polish can also be found in a top coat. Matte top coat is most useful for painting over any dry base color, giving it a different appearance. The matte top coat polish will dull the shine from a regular base coat polish. Matte polish has become very popular through the years, particularly since it can be used in nail art applications, where designs can be created on the nail using the contrast of both shiny and matte surfaces.

Tricks to Make Your Polish Last Longer 1. Never push back dry cuticles. Doing so can crack polish at the base, which leads to chipping. 2. Don’t soak ¿ngertips. There’s no real reason to do so (at salons, it’s just part of the pampering). It can actually

have a negative effect: When you soak your nails, they absorb water, which temporarily puffs them up — but they revert to their normal shape when the water evaporates. This expansion and contraction is the top cause of chipping, peeling, and cracking of polish. 3. Get the surface clean. Any traces of moisture, dust, or leftover enamel will get in the way of new-polish adhesion. To pave the way for true staying power, drizzle an old toothbrush with hand soap; then use it to “get into the corners and under nail tips, where oil — the great enemy — may be hiding.

4. Shape up. “To maximize nail strength, tips should be rounded and corners left somewhat square. 5. Apply a base coat. Studies show that a base coat sticks to nails better than polish does. For uneven nail surfaces, choose a base that also smooths out roughness. 6. Once lacquer is on, seal it with a slow-setting topcoat. They leave polish soft, mushy, and prone to denting. 7. Make the most of metallics. One theory on why this works: Small iridescent Àecks thicken enamel, so it forms a stronger ¿lm as it dries — allowing it to outlast creamy opaques (whose high pigment content can block adhesion). 8. Polish should be applied in three narrow, even strokes. One down the center and one down each side — and then be allowed to dry for two minutes before a second coat is applied. The thicker the layer is, the more dif¿cult it is for the solvent — the liquid agent in enamel — to evaporate, boosting the chances that polish will peel. 9. Practice good maintenance. Every other day, apply a layer of quick-dry topcoat to form a protective shield and increase shine.

C/He/G-27 May 15

10. Give your polish a drink. The more your enamel dries out, the greater the likelihood that it will separate from your nail. Since topcoats don’t seal in hydration, apply oil to nails and cuticles before bedtime, and slather on a thick hand cream twice a day.

Nail Polish Remover Nail polish can be removed with nail pads or nail polish remover. The remover is an organic solvent, but may also include oils, scents, and coloring. Nail polish remover packages may include individual felt pads soaked in remover. Some removers are a bottle of liquid remover that can be used with a cotton ball or cotton pad. Others can be containers ¿lled with foam that can be used by inserting a ¿nger into the container and twisting until the polish comes off. Choosing a type of remover is determined by the user’s preference and often the price or quality of the remover. The most common solvents are acetone. It is powerful and effective but can be harsh on skin and nails. Acetone can also be used to remove arti¿cial nails, which are usually made of acrylic and gel nails. It is more toxic and potentially carcinogenic. A less harsh nail polish removal is ethyl acetate, the active ingredient in non-acetone nail polish removers, which also often contain isopropyl alcohol. Ethyl acetate is generally the solvent in nail polish itself.

The Avocado – Superfood for the Masses? Foodies may choose to sneer at the ubiquity of the avocado but they should be careful about what they wish for. Crops can’t keep up with demand and prices are rising for the avocado, now being touted as a healthy superfood. But is it? Cast your mind back. When did you ¿rst see and eat your ¿rst avocado? For me it was in the early 1950s as a boy on the rare occasions I was allowed up to London from the country, where my mother got to cook. That involved provisioning forays to Soho and visits to stores like King Bomba. These places were a wonderworld of interesting aromas and exotic food. Especially since austerity had only recently ended in Britain. That was my introduction to avocado and Mediterranean food generally. Very much in sync with Elizabeth David, a family friend and neighbour, who had recently published her ¿rst book on the subject. Later, as a bachelor living in London in the 1960s and elsewhere after that, eating decently was no problem. You either ate out or rustled something up comprising staples from good bread, salads, cheeses; cooking an omelette, grilling a steak or making pasta. So if that constitutes cooking, I can cook. Among these ingredients avocados ¿gured prominently.

and it is talked about from posh dinner parties to Weight Watchers, you see how these things come about”, she sniffs. Given that supermarkets now include bags of avocados in their discounted offerings and the fact that sandwich bars routinely include avocado in salads and sandwiches you can see what a wide range of people now eat avocados, who did not do so before. In one small fruit, you glimpse how the modern food industry works – year-round availability, improved retailing, positioning as a so-called “superfood”, the inÀuence of social media and millions spent on marketing. Historically the avocado has a long history of being rebranded. In the early 20th century Californian farmers got together to work out how to take advantage of the blossoming popularity of their new crop. People in Central and South America had been eating the ahuacate (Spanish for testicle) since at least 500 BC, but Americans wouldn’t be able to pronounce that and the translation wasn’t generally appetising. Nor was the name alligator pear, by which it had become known by. They came up with “avocado”. Californian growers have been funding large advertising campaigns since the early 1960s (the US market is huge, thanks to clever marketing, the large Hispanic population and “lifestyle” bloggers).

In the Northern Europe in the 1970s and 1980s, avocados Of course that was in the era of were thought of as a “winter cheap food, which seems to fruit”, sold by Israeli produchave ended sometime in the ers. Then South African grow¿rst decade of this century. ers launched a massive and extended PR campaign to It seems to me that avocados have always been available to change perceptions and Europeans came to think of the us for as long as I can remember, if we wanted them, and at avocado as a year-round food known as avocado pears. reasonable cost. Apparently that’s not true any more. Prices for avocados have been rising steeply recently and both By 2013 most campaigns to promote avocados were wound supply and demand has been growing at such a rate among up. Growers had succeeded spectacularly. Many millions new consumers that supply cannot keep up. have been spent on marketing avocados and not least the idea that it is some kind of super food. Quite an achievement This could become a problem. An article in the Grocer, the when not so long ago it was demonized as a killer, the worst leading trade journal for the industry in the UK, warns that kind of fat, contributing to obesity and heart disease. We world demand for avocados is outstripping supply, com- should beware these market manipulations that make us pounded by poor harvests in avocado-producing countries. choose to buy what we do. Nor should we allow ourselves Leading fruit & veg suppliers, report a 30% growth in demand to be conned into viewing any food in such Manichean light, in the past year (before, it grew about 10% a year). leading us to shun or overeat it. Blame climate change and El Niño affecting suppliers in Peru, which is where the fruit originated, and the US. Growers for Europe from Mediterranean areas, like Israel and Spain, have experienced a 30% drop in production, as a result of high temperatures across Europe this summer. So we have increased demand coupled with restricted supply. Balancing that, yields in Australia and New Zealand are at record levels. So the development doesn’t necessarily mean we will see fewer avocados in the shops, but – prices will inevitably continue to rise. Around the world countries that can grow avocados are looking to do so. But even with new sources, we’re not catching up quickly enough. Things may get worse. What’s more, along with developing a taste for wine and olive oil, the Chinese have now discovered the pleasures of the avocado. You have been warned.

Are avocados a superfood? They come close. Well grown varieties provide nearly 20 important vitamins and minerals, plus monounsaturated fats. They contain vitamins E and B, folate, potassium, ¿bre and protein. They are, however, quite high in calories, about 190 calories/100g, because of their high fat content – even though most of that is monounsaturated fat, one of the fats now seen to lower bad cholesterol and raise the ‘good’. Large avocados weigh about 200g. That’s almost 400 calories and 40g of fat – but you don’t have to eat it at one sitting.

A last word for husbands and bachelors when shopping; look for an avocado that feels heavy for its size and not been bumped or bruised and squeeze gently. If it yields a little, it’s ready. If unsure, Àick the stem with your ¿nger and it should come off easily. Store avocados in a cool place or in a paper The rise of the avocado has been extraordinary.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

C/He/G-28 Oct. 15

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

MOMMY I’M SCARED…. Are your children ready for the evening news? With world events they way they have been lately, it’s no wonder young children are frightened. Regardless of the fact that these events may be taking place a very long way from where they are. Parents need to know that the bombardment of horri¿c news is too much for young children to incorporate into their minds and emotions. Even with the TV on for short periods of time, your child is soaking up what’s going in the world. It could be a report on a robbery, murder, natural disaster, mass shootings, terrorism or war. Rather than allow the child to pick up sound bites of confusing information from TV news that are dif¿cult for her to sort out and understand, it’s best for you to just talk about what has occurred in as plain terms as possible. You’re probably pretty careful not to let your kids watch very violent or frightening shows on TV. But a recent study found that children actually ¿nd the news far more terrifying than anything they’d see on a blood-and-guts TV drama or movie. Researchers showed nearly 600 kids ages 8 to 12 disturbing TV content - things like war images, people shooting at each other, house ¿res, and plane crashes - then told them what they were watching was either a ¿ctional “Hollywood show” or an actual news program. The results showed that the children who thought they were seeing real events had signi¿cantly higher fright responses and showed a greater emotional reaction than those who believed they were watching a ¿ctional show. The children worried about the images they had seen, that it might happen to them or their families, long after the TV was turned off. Tips for all kids Reassure your kids that they’re safe. Tell your kids that even though a story is getting a lot of attention, it was only one event that was very far away. And remember that your kids will look to the way you handle your reactions to determine their own approach. If you stay calm and considerate, they will, too. Young children below the age of 6 or 7 do not need to

be burdened with world news and a sincere effort needs to be made to avoid their exposure to troublesome world events. Tips for kids under 7 Keep the news away. Turn off the TV and radio news at the top of the hour and half hour. Read the newspaper out of range of young eyes that can be frightened by the pictures (kids may respond strongly to pictures of other kids in jeopardy). Preschool kids don’t need to see or hear about something that will only scare them silly, especially because they can easily confuse facts with fantasies or fears. Stress that your family is safe. At this age, kids are most concerned with your safety and separation from you. Try not to minimize or discount their concerns and fears, but reassure them by explaining all the protective measures that exist to keep them safe. If you’re Àying somewhere with them, explain that extra security is a good thing. Be together. Though it’s important to listen and not belittle their fears, distraction and physical comfort can go a long way. Snuggling up and watching something cheery or doing something fun together may be more effective than logical explanations about probabilities. Tips for kids 8 - 12 Carefully consider your child’s maturity and temperament. Many kids can handle a discussion of threatening events, but if your kids tend toward the sensitive side, be sure to keep them away from the TV news; repetitive images and stories can make dangers appear greater, more prevalent, and closer to home. Be available for questions and conversation. At this age, many kids will see the morality of events in stark black-and-white terms and are in the process of developing their moral beliefs. You may have to explain the basics of prejudice, bias, and civil and religious strife. But be careful about making generalizations, since kids will take what you say as gospel. This is a good time to ask them what they know, since they’ll probably have gotten their information from friends, and you may have to correct facts. Talk about - and ¿lter - news coverage. You might explain that even news programs compete for viewers, which

sometimes affects content decisions. If you let your kids use the Internet, go online with them. Some of the pictures posted are simply grisly. Monitor where your kids are going, and set your URLs to open to non-news-based portals. Tips for teens Check in. Since, in many instances, teens will have absorbed the news independently of you, talking with them can offer great insights into their developing politics and their senses of justice and morality. It will also give you the opportunity to throw your own insights into the mix (just don’t dismiss theirs, since that will shut down the conversation immediately). Let teens express themselves. Many teens will feel passionately about events and may even personalize them if someone they know has been directly affected. They’ll also probably be aware that terrorist tactics could affect their own lives. Try to address their concerns without dismissing or minimizing them. If you disagree with media portrayals, explain why so your teens can separate the mediums through which they absorb news from the messages conveyed. It may help to allow teens to be involved in assistance programs after certain events. Such as awareness programs or fundraisers to assist those affected by negative events.

The Frugal Balinist *Free downloads of

digital maps: Google Earth Street View maps (www. instantstreetview. com) helps you ¿nd your way around Bali on your smarter-than-you smartphone. This app makes it fast, easy and fun to get from one place to another. While sitting in a/c comfort, locate a store accurately with just a click of a button. It’s even quicker if you have the co-ordinates. First type in an address and click, then the place you are looking for will be zoomed in. You can make out your driveway, gate, house and outline of your car. The image may be out-dated a year or more; the date the photo was taken is displayed at the bottom. On the upper right corner of the map are the controls for going up and down. In the middle of the controls is a ¿gure of a man. Click on the man and drag him to the location you want on the map. This will get you a street view. On that view you can go north, south, east and west with views of the street from all angles. Sometimes it’s a bit twitchy and you won’t get exactly what you want but you will get very close.

*Christmas trees: Ace sells a 1.8 m (6 ft.) tree for around Rp650,000 and a box of decorations about Rp850,000. Together, the package costs Rp1,500,000. Re-cycled glass, plastic or other types of imitation Christmas trees are sold in the supermarkets. Ubud shops sell Christmassy decorations year round. Try the Christmas shop on Jl. Raya Kedawetan on the east side of the road near the intersection west of Ubud. Bali’s nurseries (kebon bibit) stock 50-cm to one-meter high Norfolk Island pine trees, one of the few conifers that is able to adapt to the indoors, cost Rp75,000 to Rp100,000 if you bargain. Place it in front of a large window, though it’s able to tolerate low light levels in other areas of the house. This pine’s sparsely branched pyramidal symmetry is still elegant even when it is small and potted. After using this living, growing tree as a decorated holiday houseplant, plant it in the yard and re-use it at Christmas-time next year. If you leave it alone, they will eventually grow up to 10 meters. Turn off Jl. Bypass at KFC Sanur and head towards Renon. The big garden center on the right has a big selection. Or buy one from the back of one of the pickup trucks selling plants that are parked along roadways in south Bali. Alternatively, buy a palm tree and have a kelapa harvester climb it to festoon it with lights and dangle it with decorations for a Balinesestyle Christmas. *WIKA solar water

heater. Supported by guaranteed service, the WIKA Solar Water Heater utilizes solar radiance to heat water with 100% free solar energy. Energy ef¿cient, safe to use, easy to maintain, these heaters use corrosion-resistant enameled water tanks, environmentally ef¿cient heat collector panels, non CFC high density Polyurethane insulation and other long-lasting components and accessories. For residences, WIKA water heaters come in capacities of 130 liter (Rp14,900,000), 150 liter (Rp18,900,000) and 300 liter (Rp26,500,000) with a warranty of 5 to 7 years. Also available are units for commercial needs with a capacity of 4000 liters. The return on investment (ROI) is 2-5 years, depending on usage and what technology the water heater replaces (gas/ electric).

*Jakarta Post online edition: With the recent jump in price in Bali and NTT from Rp7,500 to Rp9,500 (while the rest of RI remains at Rp7,500), it suddenly began to makes sense to sign up for the email subscription so that I could read the newspaper on any Internet accessible computer anywhere in Indonesia from the moment I wake up. The online e-edition of the newspaper is identical to the printed edition, advertisements and all. My local Bali bank was able to con¿rm that a USD10 withdrawal on my IDR credit card was made. The online digital edition is more comprehensive than the Jakarta Post website where the articles are limited and also has a feature whereby I can access back copies. An electronic subscription to the Sydney Morning Herald is close in price ($15/month) to the e-edition of the Jakarta Post and the Jakarta Globe offers a free e-paper but it focuses more on local news with not much International news coverage.

*Prescription drugs: Dif¿cult to get and expensive in Bali.

Many of the larger pharmacies - Apotek Prima Farma, Guardian and Century have doctors on-site in the pharmacy who will inform you if they have your required prescription in stock or where you can get it. For example, there is a doctor on hand at the Kimia Farma on Jl. Diponegoro in Denpasar. The drug’s name may be different in Bali or a generic equivalent may be available. Knowing the active ingredients of your prescription drug will help in ¿nding these. Also your particular dosage may not be available in either the real or generic drug. If the apotek doctor represcribes the drug, a small fee of around Rp50,000 will be added to the price.

*Minitips. Check out the entertaining bulletin board at Alchemy in Penestanan for rentals, bargains, weird workshops, treatments; * newer brands of e-cigarettes save lives and still deliver quick-and-strong nicotine kicks at levels close to an actual cigarette; *HIV infection rates in Bali are steadily increasing amongst intravenous drug users and sex workers of both genders; *Indo Surf Travel Insurance is the only company that covers damage to surfboards even when it occurs while sur¿ng; *People don’t realize how large an income they can have by being thrifty; *Free unsecured reasonably fast public Wi-Fi with Telkom’s @wi¿.id program is accessible from Bali’s airport in most passenger areas of both terminals; *No marked Trans Sarbagita bus stops at the airport, but occasionally the bus stops at the roundabout to the left side of the airport exit, charging just Rp3500 adult, Rp2,500 student; *Cheapest SIM cards are from Smartfren, Rp150,000 for 9 GB; *Rabies vaccine costs Rp250,000 in Bali’s hospitals; better to just never bring food near monkeys and stay away from roaming dogs; dogs wearing yellow or red collars have been vaccinated courtesy of BAWA; * International driving licenses for car and motorbike can be issued quickly by Bali Business Consulting, mobile 851-00124441, email bbc.info2012@gmail.com, for Rp1,000,000 (bring your photo & passport); *Honk repeatedly when going around curves on mountainous roads as it’s very common on Bali to drive in the middle of the road; *to save money, adjust Àame on LPG gas cooking stove so it’s blue, not yellow; *When buying or exchanging a 3 kg or 12 kg gas tank, always check the top to ensure that it’s sealed; *fuel consumption decreases rapidly at speeds above 50 mph; *kehématan means economy, thriftiness; *Many positive health benefits consuming fermented foods like yogurt, sauerkraut, Indonesian tempe and acar pickles and Korean kimchi; *Why buy everything you see? You already have a house full of things stored in your home country; *Always carry a packet of tissues (tisu) for use when there isn’t any on warung tables or toilet paper in public w/c; *before upgrading to a new operating system, wait 6 mos. for early annoying bugs to be gotten rid of, then upgrade when the system is more re¿ned. *Write your injuries in dust, your bene¿ts in marble. *Supermarket & eating/drinking tips. Ayu Nadi, where the

locals go, is a great place to shop in Denpasar, very fresh food, big Bintangs only Rp28,000. The new Grand Lucky supermarket on Sunset Road has kitchen accessories not usually available elsewhere; though not a big selection of fruits and vegetables, they are of good quality. Chinese tourists, known as very fastidious eaters, share their 4-5 star ratings of the restaurants they’ve visited while in the island through Dianping.com. Tops are Bumbu Bali Rock Bar at Ayana and the Bamboo Bar & and the Seafood House Grill in Kuta. The cheapest possible Bali street snacks are Nasi Jinggo Babi Kecap (banana-leaf ¿lled snacks) for Rp3000-Rp10,000 and gorengan (deep fried banana, tempe, tofu, etc.) at Rp500/apiece. Wine sold on Bali is taxed up to 280%; if you buy the Two Islands label, the most palatable wine produced in Bali, it’s about three times cheaper than wine in your home country.

*New taxi service. By registering and then using the Grab

Taxi Bali mobile app, a safe private taxi can be easily ordered by smartphone. A clone of Uber, fares are about half of any metered taxi like Blue Bird that operates in Bali. Cars are generally newish and clean. Sample fares: Grab Taxi charges

about Rp81,000 for the long drive from Nusa Dua to Echo Beach, Rp130.000 from Nusa Dua to Ubud and Rp56,000 from Sanur to Seminyak. Key in the destination address, then the app locates the nearest taxis. Select the nearest, perhaps just a minute away, which will duly arrive promptly. The drivers have GPS so they have no trouble ¿nding your location. You’re able to see on your phone where the taxi is at the moment and how long it will take until arriving at the requested location. When ordering you get the name of the driver, his phone number and the plate number of the car. Price is con¿rmed and a receipt is delivered by email minutes after your arrival. Highly recommended by a great number of users, it’s generally a more pleasant experience than dealing with regular taxi drivers.

* Not so green. The bags dispensed by Bali’s supermarkets and convenience stores that are labelled ‘degradable” are in fact not that good for the environment. They still produce microscopic fragments of plastic, which do not get broken down by biological activity but end up in the human food chain. Many end up in waterways, long before they have a chance to fragment, blocking drains and contributing to Àooding. Only China dumps more plastic waste in the sea than Indonesia does. Also the cool alternative ‘green bags’ of hemp, jute and cotton are more resource-intensive than common plastic bags. If you want to truly reduce pollution, bring your own reusable bags when shopping and reuse them hundreds of times until they wear out. The best are the Oxium bio-degradable bags you get at many Alfamart, Indomaret, Hero and other chain stores. Better yet, carry several of your own light, foldable and washable long life cloth bags that can be used for many years. *Restaurant & deli prices going up: With tough restrictions

on food imports put in force in Nov15 by the nationalistic and protectionist Widodo government, there is now more emphasis on domestic self-suf¿ciency in food and animal products. Prices for rice, mung beans, soybeans, salt, sugar, onions, garlic, corn, cattle, processed meat, candy and cookies will eventually spike, especially in alcoholic drinks. Once prices go up, it will be hard for them to come back down again. This means that restaurants in Bali will not be able to offer many items on their menus that include imported food ingredients, such as mozzarella and foie gras. These are likely to be replaced in restaurants and specialty food stores catering to expats by lower quality products, at least in the beginning until the quality and quantities of food products produced in Indonesia can be brought up to snuff.

*Parutan (coconut

grater). After splitting the husked coconut with a sharp spike, there are a n u m b e r o f economical ways to grate coconut meat. The cheapest, simplest and most common is the Àat hand-held parutan, a thin sheet of metal perforated with nail holes. Chunks of coconut meat already out of the shell are scraped across the grating surface. To grate larger amounts of coconut more quickly, the Balinese prefer to use a spoon-like parutan with a serrated edge to grate the meat right out of the half shell. The stool-mounted version of this tool is easy, practical, doesn’t need electricity and does the job beautifully. Sit on the stool and scrape the coconut halves across the blade between your legs. A bowl is placed beneath the blade to catch the grated meat. There is a folding version of the same tool. When not in use the blade folds under the hinged seat. Though not as sturdy as the ¿xed version, this model is preferred by mothers of small children and walking coconut vendors.

SCHEDULE THAT Bali National Crazy Festive Golf Tournament Holiday Camp hosted by their fully quali¿ed teachers. Children from 3 to 8 years old can enMoy Balinese dance, music and (20 December) Bali National Crazy Festive Tournament will employ the “Four Ball Best Ball (4BBB)” format of play and “System 36” same day handicapping system. The 4BBB format sees golfers play in a group of two-person teams. Everyone plays his or her own ball and only one ball is counted per team. “System 36” handicapping system is a fair way to establish handicaps for mi[ed ability ¿elds allowing a golfer of lesser ability to compete with accomplished players. The prizes are great too with prizes for novelty events such as beat the pro, 2 club hole and short putter hole. I am sure all of this is meaningful for golf enthusiasts in the community. The cost includes a pre-tournament golf clinic, practice range balls, post event BBQ, happy hour, a lucky draw and some generous prizes. When : 11.30 am (registration) 12.30 (shotgun) 5.30 pm (barbecue) 6.30 pm prizes Cost : IDR1,300,000 Where : Bali National Golf Club, Jl Nusa Dua, Nusa Dua Contact : 771791 info@balinationalgolf.com www.balinationalgolf.com

Gala Charity Event (12 December) Christmas is always a time of giving and this evening is no e[ception. The bene¿ciary of this event is the 3ansophia Nusantara Foundation, founded in 2009. The goal of this organization is to provide children from 3 to 5 years of age with a quality education and proper nutrition. I was astounded to read that school enrollment is less than 50% in Indonesia. 3ansophia Indonesia believes in the strength and inÀuence of a good early childhood education which provides the foundation for learning and development. The organization chooses to focus on early childhood education in order to tap into the ‘Golden Age’ in which all aspects of development occur. The phrase ‘Golden Age’ is certainly a great metaphor for the formative years. 3ansophia has an impressive resume of achievements. It boasts two learning centres and seven schools across Indonesia, catering to approximately 1000 children in need. Funds are needed to extend the facilities and services to support more children. After all children are the future and deserve the best especially in these formative years. However, this evening is going to be about glamour, fun, cocktails, entertainment and mingling with the socialites of Bali. There are all sorts of different packages to choose from so do check out the website and book your ticket or table as soon as possible as this is bound to be a sellout event. This event is all about raising funds and giving back to the community. When : 6 pm Cost : IDR1,800,000 Where : W Retreat Spa, Jl 3etitengit, Seminyak Contact : 8498059 www.wretreatbali.com

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

The Nyonya Kebaya by Datin Seri Replete with batik sarong, jeweled hairpins and fancy slippers, the gorgeous kebaya is a traditional long-sleeved blouse-sarong combination that originates from Indonesia. Considered the pinnacle of fashion and an integral part of Malay heritage, the designs of the kebaya cross several generations and transcend a number of cultures. Women in Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Burma, Singapore, southern Thailand, Cambodia and the southern part of the Philippines wear these creations of true art and elegance. Female Àight attendants of Malaysia Airlines, Singapore Airlines and Indonesia’s Garuda all feature batik kebaya in their uniforms. Though cultural rivalry between Indonesia and Malaysia has given rise to media-based spats over the true ownership of the kebaya, the quintessential kebaya is the Javanese variety - the national costume of Indonesia - which is virtually unchanged from when it was ¿rst noted famously by RafÀes in 1817. It consists of a blouse (kebaya) of cotton, silk, lace, brocade or velvet. The central opening of the blouse is fastened by a brooch (kerongsang) at the point where the Àaps of the blouse meet. The Nyonya Kebaya is one of the very few books devoted exclusively to this sheer, romantic, alluring, yet sedate garment. The only other similar volumes published are an historical treatment Sarong Kebaya: Peranakan Fashion in an Interconnected World 1500-1950 (Asian Civilizations Museum 2015) and the bilingual pictorial The Essence of Elegance (Gramedia 2014). The focus of this large-format book is on the type of kebaya produced in Malacca in Malaysia called nyonya kebaya that is worn by those of Chinese ancestry - the peranakan. With their brightly colored Àoral motifs, Indonesian kebaya stylistically resemble Malaysian kebaya, but the nyonya kebaya is distinctive in its intricately hand-beaded shoes (kasut manek) and the use of batik kain (long cloth) with such Chinese embellishments as dragons and phoenixes and imported printed or hand-painted Chinese silks. Outside of Malacca, the nyonya kebaya is popular in the other straits cities of Penang and Singapore. A ¿tted kebaya is able to accentuate a woman’s ¿ner assets, yet it is sexy and attractive without being racy. At the same time the out¿t is looked upon as the epitome of tradition. Exuding an air of glamor, the kebaya is often the preferred dress of trend-setting Indonesian and Malaysian screen idols. But in the same way that the Chinese do not wear cheongsam on an everyday basis, Indonesians and Malaysians mostly wear sarong kebaya on special occasions. More elaborate ones are suitable for festivals and dinner parties, while simple ones are perfect as thin jackets for leisure or work. This perennial fashion icon was originally a long, straight, Arab-inspired top of plain-woven cotton. Qaba is the Arab word for a long robe worn by Islamic royalty. In the late 18th C., Eurasian and European women in the Dutch East Indies era began adding lace to the long blouse portion of their sarong-kebaya costume. By the mid-19th C., the embroidered lace kebaya worn by women in Batavia had shortened to the hip-length garment that it is the norm today. The introduction of chemical dyes in batik printing also brought new vibrancy to a dress that traditionally had the muted colors of natural dyes. This book showcases the collection of Datin Seri Endon Mahmood, wife of Malaysia’s former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dato’ Seri Abdullah Badawi. A passionate proponent of local arts, Datin Seri has been a collector of Nyonya Kebaya and accessories for over a decade. The specimens were not acquired at well-known auction houses catering to specialists but sought out at Àea markets and out of the way antique shops during her travels to ASEAN countries in company with her husband. For the book she interviewed a

number of experts in the ¿eld as well as many people who shared their personal recollections of the kebaya in their younger years. Several sepia-tinted photos from the early part of the 20th century up to the 1950s portray the author with relatives, friends, politicians, bejeweled and well-to-do Nyonya Malaysian women, matriarchs and members of cultural organizations. Early forms of the delicately embroidered and embellished traditional kebaya are shown being worn in wedding portraits and by actresses in Malay comedy ¿lms. The color images of kebaya in a great variety of settings displayed in exhibitions, folded over artifacts, mounted on headless bamboo mannequins, hanging or spread out against dark backgrounds, modeled by exotic ChineseMalaysian women - show the ingenuity, appeal and craftsmanship of the garment to its best advantage.

Of particular interest to lovers of Indonesian textiles is the “Completing the Nyonya Look” chapter that features sarongs produced in the peranakan communities along Java’s north coast. The detailed close-ups of the motifs on these batik are exquisite. The color, quality and amount of embroidery on the kebaya has to either complement or contrast sharply with the color or print of the accompanying batik sarong. The slightest difference in hue between the kebaya and sarong can throw the whole ensemble off balance. Although Pekalongan sarongs were the batik of choice, the perfect foil of the kebaya, the Nyonyas would also wear sarongs made in Cirebon, East Java dyed with earthy brown-red colors and in Lasem with smaller, stylized motifs and fairly simple backgrounds. Indo-European motifs, some taken from ceramic and wallpaper designs imported into East Indies by 19th C. European traders, include renderings of insects, plant forms, blossoms, ornate daisies, irises, bouquets and wreaths of flowers, baskets tied with ribbons; swans, hummingbirds, birds carrying love letters. Color combinations were bright and bold - mint greens, brassy browns, saffron yellows, shocking pinks, electric blues - which appealed to the Nyonyas’ aesthetics. The Postscript, the book’s last and most innovative chapter, shows new ways in which kebaya-inspired motifs have been utilized in not just the world of fashion but in tablecloths, ceramic dinnerware, placemats, coasters, curtains, linen, handkerchiefs and even commemorative postage stamps in which the role of the kebaya has been completely rede¿ned. A glossary of accepted Malay terms (the same terms used in Indonesian) describe the parts of a kebaya, types of designs; brooches, body ornaments and other costume accouterments; textile terms and descriptions of style variations worn in different geographic locations.

A Pathway to Non-ordinary Reality I’ve just embarked on a new journey which is taking me deeper into the self. I am beginning a three year advanced training program which I’m already sensing will profoundly change my life and the lives of all the people who cross my path in this reality and beyond. So here it is day seven of my eleven day training when inspiration came to me to ask some of the participants two questions: what is Shamanism to you and how has it changed your life? The answers that follow were quite illuminating. Jackie’s view of Shamanism: Jackie went looking for something to help her friend recover from his trauma. She enrolled in a course on Shamanism and before she even attended the course she had a dream about an animal that went into the ground. This validated for her that power animals were in the lower world. “Shamanism isn’t a religion but it’s very spiritual and a great way to tap into the spiritual realms. It’s an ancient tradition. It’s not a new age system as it’s been around for thousands of years.” After she studied the basic courses she discovered that she could heal people with Shamanism. “Shamanism has changed my life for the better, because It has given me more clarity and helped me to have a deeper understanding of why things happen in my life and how to deal with life’s challenges.” Jacpav@gmail.com Joseph’s view of Shamanism: He and his partner Sharon have done Ayuasca ceremonies for several years, so his view of Shamanism is home grown, but has been informed by the three year advanced Shamanic training that he is currently participating in. “I used to think Shamanism has to do with healing, but while this is a part of Shamanism, I now feel it has more to do with accessing different parts of ourselves and increasing our frequency. There are two aspects to this: exploration of the self by doing a lot of work to keep yourself level and make connections to all aspects of yourself. The other part is to show others who don’t have access to this, ways that they can have access to different realms. I don’t feel shamanism is limited to a particular practice. Shamanism is a discipline that allows people to get access to the wider aspects of themselves. It doesn’t matter if you call those aspects power animals or guides.” Joseph believes that we are all creative beings with the capacity to create anything in our lives, so we can create our own methods and make it true. Everything is permissible, everything is valid and everything is possible. Shamanism is the realm of existence where you connect to your fullness of being and understand the realms of those beings and learn what’s possible and become the essence of all that. Facebook: Joseph callender Sharon’s view of Shamanism: “Shamanism for me has been a way of discovering who I am. As Andrew Bartzis would say, it’s part of our DNA skin suit and we all respond to it.” Sharon’s big attraction is in plant and Elemental Shamanism. It’s a way for her to reconnect with Self all the way back to source. When she first began practicing Shamanism seven years ago, her life totally transformed. She changed her job, friends and everything that she was doing. She let go of lots of old programs such as the corporate program and happily ever after program. This year she called in new helping Spirits: two druids and a Qe’ro shaman which is from Peru. The Qe’ro focus their practices on the elements and mother earth. In Shamanic practices, the Shaman will usually journey to the transcendent realms lying down, but Sharon experienced a whole new way of journeying standing up and dancing in a course she took in Australia recently. The teacher just for fun, had the participants journey to the band AC DC. Sharon was amazed that it worked. Before even doing this work, Sharon and her friend developed a system teaching people how to journey.

“We see it as a hologram within the matrix. When you leave the matrix hologram and enter the plasma which is beyond the matrix, you then enter the upper world. To journey up or down you need power -- you need a dantien which is our power center just below the navel. Without this power you can’t go anywhere.” I asked her how do you know when you’ve entered the upper world? Sharon said, “I call this the ‘Plasma Realm’. I only entered it two weeks ago after seven years of Shamanism. It was a completely different feeling. I saw things that I’ve never seen before and beings that I know in that realm that said, “you’ve finally made it.” Sharon has been doing Chi Gong and journeying for 13 years which has helped her to build up enough power and experience to make this landmark journey to the real upper world. For her, it was beyond everything; beyond the matrix and this earth. “It’s very energetically tidy there. There isn’t any of the hoo ha that you experience in the astral realms.” “Most people journey to the astral realms and haven’t really made it to the upper world. Once you’re really there you won’t question it because you’ll feel it. When you’re in the real upper world there are no teachers. You experience pure consciousness. As you travel you learn how to distinguish between an astral being and a dreamtime being,” said Sharon. Sharonbolt@kifocus.com

Camilla’s view of Shamanism: I think Shamanism is a healing modality that’s been around from our oldest roots of history. Shamanism embraces the understanding that there are other forces out there that may be more knowledgeable than ourselves, and those forces can be called upon to be utilized to help others and to further understand the inner workings of the self. Camilla combines art therapy and Shamanism in her healing practice. She has many years of experience as a holistic practitioner working both with energy healing and Shamanic healing which has a very different quality to it. She feels it’s incredibly powerful and practical. “Shamanism has provided me with a fantastic framework to help others. Having studied art therapy and Shamanism really enhances what I do. There’s always a new adventure within the practice. There’s always more to learn about the self and more to grow and develop and understand how we fit into this vastness of life and consciousness. I absolutely believe that one should be critical in what one does. Always analyzing and not taking things at face value. It’s not about what you believe. It should be a practice and results and outcomes driven work.”

C/E/G-14 Oct. 15

Camilla holds the view that Shamanism isn’t for everyone. If a person is very cynical or doesn’t believe that the healing will work for you then it won’t. “I really feel that if you’re not receptive to healing it won’t come to you.” As I come to the end of this article there are only two days left of our training. We’ve experienced many sacred initiations, healing and journeying to the transcendent realms. Our experiences are personal yet collectively through our own transformations we are radiating this out into the world. www.neldonahealing.com

Michele has been working in Bali since 2006 as an energy healer, shamanic practitioner & transformational coach. She also offers hypnotherapy sessions, reiki classes & personalized healing retreat programs both on Bali and abroad. www.spiritweaverjourneys.com For questions or comments about this column, please email: mcempaka@gmail.com Copyright 2015 © Michele Cempaka C/E/I-17 Sept 14

Restaurant Review

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

The Jewel of Goutama! La-Mien is one of the 20 cheap eats on Jln. Goutama. It is a narrow street that runs between Jln. Raya Ubud and Dewa Sita. It consists of 20+ small cafes, warungs and restaurants, all but 3 of them have main courses at about Rp.50,000 and entrees at half of that. Those are the ones that are busy every day.

But Ramen Noodles are why most people come to La-Mien, a meal in a bowl for less than $5. Miso Chasiu Ramen is those noodles, greens and slices of pork confit in miso soup. Shoyu Chasiu Ramen combines the ramen noodles extra slices of pork confit, a boiled egg and greens, in shoyu soup and what I usually eat here, so good!

QUICK REVIEW Restaurant

: La-Mien.

Address

: Jln. Goutama, Ubud.

Kakuni Ramen is with pork belly confit, Japanese curry rice is very different and can be Katsu [sliced breaded deep-fried chicken or pork on top] or Hamburger with one of America’s own sitting on the curry rice. Cha Han is a shrimp fried rice with a small bowl of soup on the side.

Telephone

: 479.2685.

Open

: 11.00 a.m. to 10.00 p.m., daily.

Smoking Area

: None.

La-Mien is the jewel of Goutama. The name sounds French but it is very Japanese, and noodles are what most people come for. Ramen, Udon, Soba, they are all here, and a few other dishes as well

There are many other alternatives to Ramen. Curry Udon is a bowl of those very thick noodles in a curry soup with either chicken or beef added. Hyashi Chuka are cold noodles. Chicken and Beef are also on offer, teriyaki style, the tender meat crumbed, deep-fried and cross-sliced.

Parking

: Street only.

Price

: Rp. 200,000 for two [+ drinks].

Credit Cards

: Visa, Mastercard [+ 3%].

Food

: Japanese.

Funky and different, the walls are lined with murals and framed pictures of famous Japanese cartoon characters, all eating noodles. That is also what most customers do when they come to La-Mien. The place is small and cozy, one table on the front street-front terrace and a couple inside at the open windows.

Or you can build your own noodle dish. First you select which noodles you desire from Tamago Men [egg noodles], Kweitiau [flat rice noodles], Tam Miun [sweet potato noodle], Sohun [mung bean noodle] or just five grain rice, Gokoku Mai. Then you must decide which soup you want it all combined in; vegetable, chicken, pork or a combination of chicken and pork.

Wine

: Special Japanese drinks.

Service

: Basic.

Atmosphere

: Noodle slurping.

Overall

: Taste and value!

I have a great problem whenever I visit a Japanese restaurant that serves Gyoza, I always order it! Not Japanese in origin, obviously Chinese but modified to suit the Japanese, the dumplings are first steamed then pan-fried on just one side, making them very easy to pick up with your wooden Japanese chop-sticks, and dunking in the soy sauce. I always order them stuffed with minced pork but vegetarian gyoza is also available here. As La-Mien is a part of the Ryoshi Group, the quality never varies. Other appetizers include another one stolen from the Chinese, Siu Mai, steamed dumplings stuffed with shrimp and pork. Very Japanese are bowls of Edamame [boiled green soy beans sprinkled with sea salt] and boiled Moringa Beans. They are good side dishes to order, pick at them throughout the meal. Yasai Itami is a plate of sautéed mushrooms and vegetables. Mabo Nasu is eggplant in miso. A Sesame Chicken Salad is served with cold noodles, great for lunch on a hot day. Another import is from Vietnam, Pho Bo, the popular beef and noodle soup is on the menu and being so hard to find, done well, in Bali it is also very popular!

Non-Smoking Area : No.

Next comes the topping, Tori Soboro is minced chicken in soy, Zangi is fried chicken in hokkaido, Gyoza Goreng are fried pork dumplings, Cha Siu is pork soy confit, Chige Pork just pork and vegetables sautéed in a spicy miso, Kakuni is pork belly in star anise, Tamago is boiled egg in sweet soy. Many vegetarian toppings are also available; seaweed, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, fried or dried tofu. Another feature here is the special ‘Japanese Vodka’. It is made at Ryoshi’s Karang Asem distillery. Two styles are served. Chu Hai is the neat spirit with a range of fruit juices added [cranberry, apple, pomegranate, etc.], whilst Sho-Chu has been infused with tea [Early Grey, Jasmine or Shenlong] or Luwak Coffee. At Rp. 25,000++ a glass both are very popular with the Japanese diners, and all others. I find the Chi Hai with ginger, honey and lime very refreshing and the perfect accompaniment for my noodle dish.

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.

La Mien is a ‘drop in anytime’ sort of place, for just a snack or you can combine a few different dishes for a full meal that does not break the bank! The perfect Cheap Eat, healthy and tasty.

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.

Fashion SOCIAL MEDIA BYTES BY : LIZ AFAIK So when a volcano’s ash cloud is darkening the skies and cancelling flights, and you can’t get any response from the airline you booked to Bali, where do you look on social media for real-time, verified advice? The answer to this recent dilemma, which affected tens of thousands of travellers, mostly Australian, is the Bali Travel Group Facebook Page. The Bali Travel Group page (previously The Bali Travel Forum) was set up by local author Clare McAlaney. Clare describes The Bali Travel Group (BTG) as “a general area for members to discuss Bali and ask questions [about] shopping, trips, tours, restaurants, things to know, culture and customs.” Then came the volcano. At the end of October, Mt Rinjani in Lombok began to emit plumes of smoke and ash, first delaying, and then cancelling, flights to and from Australia (and other destinations). By November 4th, Ngurah Rai Airport had closed for three days, effectively stopping all air traffic in and out of the island. Thousands of people at the end of their holidays were stranded. There was a mad scramble as people searched for hotels and accommodation, unsure of how long they had to wait until their flights were re-scheduled. People began to contact insurance companies to cover the cost of additional hotel stays and meals, and many discovered at that point that either their insurance coverage was not adequate or that several companies did not cover the event, or stopped covering it after a week. Many hotels, already pre-booked in November for the start of Bali’s busiest season and the Australian “schoolies” week, began to receive cancellations as expected guests failed to arrive. Stranded travellers were running out of medications, money and patience. Many turned to their chosen airlines social media feeds and to the BTG page to express their frustrations and fears. Scores of people posted homages to Bali: photos, videos and stories from past trips, sharing memories and encouraging others to visit once the volcano settled down. Many Australians who had future plans to visit the island posted asking if they should cancel their plans or change their destination. Clare and Ann responded by saying that no one could predict accurately how long the eruption and disruption would last. Clare and other travellers suggested that Australians still in their own country change their plans to avoid being stuck in Bali if they managed to arrive. Jetstar began offering to change travel destinations for Australians at no charge. As the weeks passed, and Virgin and Jetstar flights were cancelled daily, the frustration and anxiety levels in posts on the BTG page soared. Word had spread that Air Asia and Garuda had resumed flights and many travellers were trying to get refunds from Jetstar or Virgin so they could get home on other airlines. However, while some people were able to get refunds, others could only get vouchers for future travel. Australian airlines began flying only empty recovery planes from Australian to Bali, including special medical evacuation missions for people with serious conditions, but communication from the airlines was poor, many people didn’t get rebooking information, and Jetstar and Virgin planes were leaving Bali with 50 or 80 people on board. People began to share advice on the BTG page about times for recovery flights leaving, advising others to simply go to the airport rather than wait to hear from their airline, the script to use to persuade Virgin or Jetstar to issue a refund instead of a voucher, as well as advice on paying the overstay penalty or extending visas, and, of course, success stories of people who managed to arrive or leave, and how they had done so. Ann Head, who was acting as Clare’s second-in-command and fellow page administrator, posted that BTG had soared to 8,744 members from less than 3,000. At one point during the volcano crisis, Ann said, BTG was the fastest-growing page on Facebook. Ann posted that she had also “learned a lot about hackers, spammers and trolls since becoming admin

of [the] group.” She hoped the volcano would settle down and wrote,” hopefully, we can get back to the purpose of the group: to advise, recommend and showcase all things Bali.” Clare contacted both Jetstar and Virgin at the height of the crisis, trying to get them to respond to her so she could pass on information about tourists who had bookings on their airlines but had not been contacted about being put on recovery flights. Many people were posting increasing frustrated messages on BTG page about feeling isolated, lacking any information and becoming increasingly anxious about the situation. Clare repeatedly posted contact details for an Australian nurse living in Denpasar, who could bridge the language barrier and refer stranded tourists with medical conditions to Indonesian doctors or facilities for treatment. People who were able to fly into Bali on Air Asia and Garuda brought additional medications, infant formula and other essential items, having seen the posts for help on the BTG page. Every morning Clare or Ann posted the latest Bureau of Meteorology updates on the ash cloud and requested that people at the airports post photos showing the Departure and Arrival screens, to confirm which flights were cancelled or scheduled.

C/G/G-30 Sept. 15

The airlines had noticed Clare’s work on social media, getting accurate up-to-date information out about the status of the volcano and coordinating people to communicate with each other via BTG. Clare posted on November 17 that her reaching out to Jetstar had a positive result: CEO David Hall sent a brief personal note and the Head of Customer Strategy wanted to speak with her.

Lucy’s Batik

On November 19, Clare was able to meet via SKYPE with the Head of Customer Strategy and Projects Manager for Group Operations for Jetstar: she wrote “the [Jetstar]team have been reading your posts. Every single one… they are genuinely grateful that you took the time to share your experiences …. Bali is an important leg for Jetstar and your safety and needs really were top of mind for them the last two weeks…I shared many of your stories … Jetstar made it clear that have a lot of work to do so it does not happen again. They had noticed that I was able to illicit intelligent responses rather than abuse, while their FB page was filled with the noise of angry customers.”

Clare informed the group that she had been told by Jetstar that 20,000 customers were still stranded. She asked those passengers still in Bali, waiting to get home, to list their itinerary details and flight numbers on the site so she could forward the information to Jetstar.

On November 24, Clare was finally able to post a line that read: “Music for my eyes.. no Mt Rinjani listing [for volcanic ash advisories on the Australian Government’s Department of Meteorology website]. Maybe I can get some work done now?” However, the fallout from the volcano event was not just ash: Jetstar and Virgin may have suffered damaging and irreversible negative public relations from their failure to communicate effectively with stranded travellers. Clare wrote in a post after airlines resumed flying into Bali that she never heard back from Virgin Australia and “this signals warning bells for the brand. It is my belief that without listening to their customers, and those who experienced the last two weeks, they are playing a longer-term dangerous game with their brand.” A recent estimate in The Jakarta Post is that Bali lost 25,000 Australian tourist arrivals in the few weeks that flights were cancelled because of the volcano. As many Australians decided to alter their travel plans, heading to Thailand, Vietnam or Cambodia instead, the final tally of lost tourists and lost tourist dollars will no doubt be higher.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE DECEMBER 09 - DECEMBER 23, 2015

Our New Moon is in the sign of Sagittarius at the beginning of the fortnight and promises an exciting and unpredictable cycle. We have a T-square that includes Mars opposite Uranus and squared to Pluto. Mars as the lower octave of Pluto will be triggering and activating a highly transformative month leading up to the Full Moon on Christmas day. Uranus as we by now know brings sudden, shocking and often surprising situations and is harmoniously linked to our Sun/ Moon duo. The theme in Sagittarius is all around foreign, cultural and religious affairs and Mars in Libra seeks balance through more balanced action. All kinds of intercultural partnerships are up for review this month and some innovative new methods may be implemented within your own personal relationships and those of the global community. Our thoughts are more far reaching even with Mercury entering that more conservative sign of Capricorn, just before the New Moon. Venus is trine to Neptune and the feminine is particularly intuitive and showing her deeply compassionate side this month. Any relationships seeded at this time will be both passionate and romantic. There’s always a strong push for honesty and truth when Planets are in Sagittarius and this period will prove to be a pivotal time of revelations. The more that the authorities push their agendas the more the people will fight back for justice and fairness for all. This is a tough time for peace and good will when so many are obviously struggling and yet faith can prevail.

NEW MOON 19 Sagittarius 03 December 11, 2015 6:30 p.m.

The tension is building in the area of your primary relationships. It’s the feeling of you verses them that often arises and compromises the goals that you’ve been sharing and building upon. It could be that it is time to let go of some of the ideas you’ve held so close and from which you’ve created an identity for yourself. This is the time to branch out and really try something different, something new and potentially untested. You love a challenge and the prospect of unchartered waters that could lead you directly into the mystery itself where there is nothing to rely on except your own instinct and inner morals. You may wish to share more of your ideas as a show of kindness and support this fortnight. With Venus in your relationship house there’s a lot of time for your beloved and the others with whom you share intimate or personal time. Friendships come into this category as well and you may want to reconnect with some of them now. The truth and honesty theme is a big one for you and one which you feel pretty strongly about. Allow this month to grow you into something amazing as your connection to your divine nature sprouts new roots, with your depth of care for others leading you forward. It’s time for a shift of gears when it comes to communicating and the tone becomes much more sombre and serious. There are strong topics to discuss and yet nothing to be afraid of as we seek for answers to the tough questions. This is the time to be honest and particularly within your closest relationships. Friendship is a prerequisite for intimate relationships as far as you are concerned and so too is a romantic closeness. In fact it may be difficult to separate things out at this time and why would you? Transformation comes through the reflections shining back at you each and every day and through everyone you meet. This New Moon brings your working life into focus and it may be a time now to branch out and try something new. As you balance your career aspirations and home life to suit your higher aspirations it brings forth the need for change within your work and romantic partnerships. Pushing your life to new limits can be unsettling and yet the sense of excitement that can build at this time will bring passion to your creative processes. You have a lot of compassion for Worldly affairs and this serves to inspire that same creative flow as you align yourself with more humane ways of interrelating and sharing resources.

You have a lot of energy for your own self-interests at the moment although they will be challenged through your partnerships and the responsibilities you have with family and home. This cycle brings communication and a more honest approach to topics of concern within your closest of relationships. Your values have more of an emotionally based tone and this impacts the work that you do in caring for others. Even if this isn’t your career focus it is a part of your everyday expression. Take the time that you need to restore yourself and the other aspects of your life will fall into place in an obvious and inspired way. You may be healing some of your deeper relationship issues at this time. The choice is to go in there and do the work or to try and avoid it. If the latter is your preference then be prepared for communication eruptions that may disturb both your work and your health. Standing up for what you believe in while keeping an open mind to the differing opinions of others is what’s needed. There may yet be aspects of your own psyche that remain unconscious to you and this is the opportunity to now ferret them out while remaining loving and forgiving with yourself and kindly understanding to the feelings of others. This is obviously your time to shine and to express your own blend and brand of individuality. You can have a positive impact on your environment and community now, possibly more than ever before. As you willingly release old patterns and worn out objects you can bring in the new model of existence. There is yet a tension in the atmosphere as we traverse unchartered territory and kindness must remain the way forward. You are very comfortable in these nebulous areas of existence that take you deeper into your own Divine nature and your connection to Original Source Energy. Keep moving forward with your career focus. The New Moon is bringing a more spiritual slant to your life this cycle and it will promote more of those same themed changes to career and home. As you continue with your metamorphosis the challenge is to integrate it in such a way that you can maintain a sense of balance and harmony. As your deeper feelings get exposed within your own circle of friends they are reciprocated and this brings a heightened level of love and understanding to all communications. You understand so much more about the nature of your own existence through the trials and tribulations of these past few years. Have faith and trust this process.

It looks like fun and games and possibly romance for you this fortnight. There is however a more serious overtone when it comes to work issues and particularly when it impacts your sense of freedom and ability to come and go as you please. You have a lot of energy for adventure and movement and it’s necessary that you express it or there may be consequences for your health. The other side of that coin is the possibility of burn-out from overextending yourself in service of others. You may want to beautify your home this month or make it more appealing as a personal retreat space for yourself to relax in.

As you speak up for what you believe in now you may be surprised to experience the support and camaraderie that was once non-existent. Your own personal blend of transformation is unfathomable to others and yet we must share what we can in order to inspire and uplift others. You are in such a position this fortnight, being called to carry the banner for your own community is an honour and a privilege in showing what true compassionate living looks like. Your personal values include kindness and emotional support to yourself and others. It is important that you take any solitude required to reset and integrate the ever changing landscape.

This month is centred on the home and acquisitions you make for it and your ability to share resources in that space. There’s a certain flow happening although it may be threatening your sense of identity or there may be issues around any children in your life. It will be of benefit to talk about the intimate issues with your partner and to promote understanding for each other’s values. In fact, this is a good time for you to work one-on-one with people and to express your compassionate self in a kind and loving way. You may want to change residence and to open new pathways for living your dream.

Your career aspirations are highlighted with this cycle and you have the ability to restore a strong sense of values for yourself and others. As we move through these unpredictable days and change it is easy to find ourselves off course or travelling without a rudder, so to speak, and so navigational skills are in high demand. You love ideas and study that take you out beyond your own comfort zone and there will be plenty of opportunity for you to go deep inner space diving now. The concept of community is one that is being constantly remodelled for you and with that it may be challenging to find a place that feels like home.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS MIDDLE EAST CUISINE Inspired by the Middle Eastern passion for fresh tasty food, Ubud restaurateur Janet Molloy is sharing her discoveries from recent visits to Turkey, with the opening of another great eatery, Jasmine Restaurant. Sumptuous décor, including oriental rugs, fabulous lamps, Ottoman era paintings, two outdoor terraces, a downstairs garden and tented upstairs under the stars – all simply gorgeous … you are no longer in Bali! And the food is delicious, of course. Using the famous spices of the Middle East and North Africa, all salads are made with extra virgin olive oil, and the menu has lots of vegetarian choices. You can have a very inexpensive meal just by ¿lling a freshly baked, still warm pita bread with your choice of mezes. And then of course – this is the Middle East we’re talking about – there are oodles of food for the meatarians too. Watch the chef grilling your Shish kebab, or wait impatiently for the exquisitely spiced lamb tagine with prunes and almonds. Plus scrumptious desserts and exotic ice creams. Open 10 am till 10 pm (yes, delicious breakfast menu), next to Goddess on the Go, on Jalan Raya Pengosekan. Parking in front. Phone to book a table 0811 3851110 TRADISI WEAVING If you haven’t taken a stroll through the Monkey Forest lately, or visited Nyuh Kuning, I can recommend the ¿rst on the way to the second, where you can treat yourself to a visit to Tradisi Fabric & Cushions on Jl Raya Nyuh Kuning. The well-organised little store displays hand-woven materials and blankets, bought directly from the weavers all over Indonesia, including beautiful range of ikat from Flores and songket from Lombok. Many pieces are hand spun and using natural dyes, others are vibrant contemporary styles and they also have a basket of preloved, soft and cuddly blankets. All pro¿ts from Tradisi go towards community projects, bene¿tting the women who wove the pieces in the villages. TRANSFORMED BY FESTIVAL? Make sure you are in Bali in late March and early April for the 2016 BaliSpirit Festival. Early bird passes are on sale now, so save yourself a bundle if you plan to immerse yourself in the ¿ve days and four nights of high energy activity. Or if you want to contribute to the community, try a volunteer role – either in the planning phase (already in full swing) or during the event itself. Hundreds of people work on this festival every year now, and there’s a need for assistance in everything from design to planning to ¿nance to customer service to security. Some of my favourite memories over the past eight years are from playing at or working on this festival. Conceived by Meghan Pappenheim, Rob Weber and Kadek Gunarta only eight years ago, this concept of festival combining yoga, dance, world music and spirituality has been imitated in Australia, Hawaii, California and Malaysia. If your heart goes with it, the experience may transform your life as you mix with an extraordinary range of people from all corners of the globe - yoga enthusiasts, dancers, musicians and spirituality seekers. You can’t help but be inspired. For tickets and all other information, visit www. balispiritfestival.com; March 29 to April 3.

DUNK-Q FISHING We love Ubud, don’t we? But sometimes there’s something about the ocean that lures us away for a while. For a group of enthusiasts in Penestanan, it’s time to arrange the annual mahimahi season ¿shing trip. If you like ¿shing, this is another great Bali adventure - it’s quite a different experience to ¿sh with local ¿sherman, using their traditional boat (jukung) and ¿shing tackle. Mahimahi ¿sh are strong ¿ghters and fast swimmers, so you’ll earn your dinner. And fresh mahi-mahi is delicious. Check out the Dunk-Q Fishing Team page on Facebook, for more information and prices for this all-inclusive expedition.

UBUD BANDS LEAD THE BLUES Following a successful showing in the recent Sundown Blues On Stage Battle, Ubud’s energized, punchy band Unb’rocken will join the strong line-up for next year’s Bali Blues International Festival on Peninsula Island in Nusa Dua. My absolute favourite blues band, Cooltones, will also take to the big stage at the April 2016 festival, making up for the disappointment of last year when Cooltones’ extraordinarily talented lead guitarist, Agung, had a motorbike accident just before the event and they had to withdraw. KASIAN! (Indonesian expression of sincere regret) Many an overseas music producer has tried to persuade Agung to live in LA; his skills as both guitarist and teacher are outstanding. The festival organisers say our guys will play alongside some seriously respected international musos, including the legendary Robert Plant! Two days of music on two stages; more information on www.balibluesfestival.com.

TASTY CRUISES Some happy tourists just ¿nished a fabulous cruise around the islands of Indonesia with SeaTrek and Janet DeNeefe - by all accounts a glorious combination. First, there’s the daytime adventure of days of cruising on a traditional Indonesian wooden ship, snorkelling in waters teeming with vibrant tropical ¿sh and popping into tiny villages and markets. Then every evening meal prepared by one of our favourite teachers of Balinese cuisine, eating every single morsel after watching Janet prepare and explain them to the guests on deck. Janet will do at least two cruises next year, but they get booked out early, so put your name down ASAP. One of the cruises will be another culinary affair, the other with one of the star writers from the Ubud Readers and Writers Festival. Check out the SeaTrek and URWF websites for details; out shortly. INFORMERS WELCOME! When I chat to people about this column, they sometimes observe that the same (great) restaurants, spas and movie nights are mentioned many times during the year. There are two very good reasons: one, they are excellent spots and they are always doing new things; two, they tell me about them.

technologies. He’s worked with content management technologies for more than ten years and previously served as the Chairman of the non-pro¿t Mambo Foundation. “So who should publish their own eBook? ” Ric asked our group, then proceeded to tell us in simple outline form: someone who has time, perseverance and cash, as well as someone who wants total control over their book and is willing to hire editors, graphic designers and promoters or do these tasks all by themselves.

Reading, Writing, and Learning at UWRF Workshops By Uma Anyar

laid out so that even rank beginners could understand what was at stake and could make an informed decision. Ric Shreves, the workshop presenter, is a seasoned, polished speaker who presented technical information in an understandable and interesting manner. He kept tech jargon down to a minimum and encouraged us to ask questions. But the best thing about this particular workshop was that Ric Shreves compiled the pertinent points and core information into an outline of slides, which he presented during the workshop and also published online. “No more xeroxed handouts,” he stated, “so more tree are still growing”. You can check out the main points for yourself, here: ricshreves.net/uwrf.pdf

This year the Ubud Writers & Readers festival offered 11 adult level workshops on many aspects of the writing ¿eld. Almost all sold out before the festival started. The workshop sessions ran the gamut from inspirational topics on the psychology of writing to the nuts-and-bolts practicalities of how to self-publish an eBook.

The Self-Publishing & eBook Workshop attendees were a vigorous combination of seniors, youngsters and ‘middlers’ who hailed from Singapore, Jakarta and a variety of western countries as well as a few born and bred Ubudians. A Jakarta woman wanted to publish an illustrated children’s book, others were working on novels, cookbooks and practical how-to books.

I found Ric Shreve’s’ Self-Publishing & eBooks Workshop, held at Hubud – a popular and lively digital nomad coworking space near the Monkey Forest in Ubud – to be a well-organised cornucopia of information ranging from which apps to use to produce your book to publishing your eBook with or without a publisher.

Ric Shreves is a tech guru and has published 20 books to date, 13 of which are popular technology books both in paperback and on Kindle. The most notable are: Social Media Optimization for Dummies, Joomla Bible and How To WordPress 4. Ric is a multi-talented guy who has boundless energy. He says he is fueled by lots of coffee and curiosity.

Tools, strategies and comparisons of the pluses and minuses of going it alone or ¿nding a publisher were well

He is an author, web developer and a partner at Water & Stone, an interactive agency specialising in open source

The bene¿t of self-publishing is that you get to keep all the royalties. He recommended various applications that he thinks excel in various stages of producing an eBook, from research to writing the text, formatting and sourcing images. Fiver.com charges ¿ve dollars for a single task such as designing a book cover. This is a site to check out if you have not already discovered it. For the 12 years I have been attending the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival, one of the constant questions has been will print publishing survive or will we end up only reading eBooks on various devices? At this point in 2015 the either/or query is not appropriate. The answer is obviously both, but not in equal measures. Some books are meant to be simple and these are quick and easy to download. But the interesting and dynamic possibilities lie in Interactive eBooks. It will be interesting to see how artists/writers will be using interactive technology tools to produce new genres, a new approach of experiencing books that is not passive. Think theatre, think games, think group dynamics. The possibilities for digital interactive books/arts are limitless. Perhaps there will be a workshop on interactive eBooks at the 2016 UWRF in conjunction with Hubud or Outpost. I can only suggest and hope.

Local News Bali Governor Opposes Shariah Tourism Idea Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika disagreed with the idea of developing Shariah tourism on the island, citing fears that it could create potential problems. “I did not agree with it. It will only create problems. Just leave it as it is for now. It has all been going well so far,” he stated after attending a plenary meeting of the regional legislative assembly here on Tuesday (24/11). He pointed out that tourism in Bali has flourished so far. “Let us not think of strange ideas. It will only create problems. The people have lived peacefully under current conditions so far,” he emphasized. Chairman of the Shariah Economic Community (MES) Muliaman D. Hadad stated recently after inducting the MES Bali chapter that Bali is the right destination for developing Shariah tourism. “Bali is fit (for Shariah tourism). So, why not develop it here. Seven million domestic tourists come to Bali in addition to three million foreign tourists. So, perhaps, there are businessmen here who wish to

introduce it in cooperation with the regional government,” he affirmed. He said that Islam-based tourism has not only been developed in Arab countries but has also been promoted in Asian countries, such as Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.

attempt to launch a campaign to debunk myths about HIV backfired badly in a country where people with the virus are much stigmatized.

Bali Bomber Speaks Out Against Islamic State as Gov’t Ramps up Security The last surviving member of the terrorist cell responsible for the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people has expressed regret for his actions and condemned the violence wrought by the Sunni militant group Islamic State.

Arrested in January 2003 while on the run in East Kalimantan, Imron was tried and convicted of helping assemble the bombs used in the 2002 attacks, and sentenced to life in prison that September.

Ali Imron, serving a life sentence for his role in the October 2002 attacks on nightclubs in the popular resort island, said his goal all along was for the establishment of a nation grounded in Islamic values, but conceded that achieving this through violent means was wrong.

Since then, police have used Imron to help them in their counterterrorism activities.

“We still dream of establishing a country based on Islamic values, but in a good way. It is wrong to reach this goal through bomb attacks like we once did,” he told reporters on Wednesday at the Jakarta Police headquarters, where he is currently in custody.

Imron, the brother of the Bali bombing masterminds Amrozi and Mukhlas, who were executed in 2008, said the violent campaign now being carried out by Islamic State did not conform to the true ideals of jihad, or holy war. “If I ever meet [Islamic State] members [I would explain to them] that that is not what jihad is,” he said. “I am ready to advocate [against Islamic State] if I am free. The government can interpret [my readiness] however they want.” He added he wanted to tell young militants that violent jihad should be waged only in a war zone or where Muslims were under attack. Imron’s statement came as authorities said an estimated 100 Indonesians who had fought for Islamic State in Syria and Iraq had since returned home. The possibility of a Paris-style attack in Indonesia remains remote, though, security observers say. The Jakarta Police, headed by former counterterrorism chief Insp. Gen. Tito Karnavian, say they hope the message from a one-time radical will dissuade Indonesians from joining Islamic State.

Purwanto said authorities are conducting a special de-radicalization program for women whose husbands may be involved in terrorist activities. “We had several conversations with them and encouraged them to return to normal life and have more conversations. The means used for de-radicalization are by dialogue,” he said.

Stray Cat In Your Garden? Do you have a mama cat living in your street, garden or roof even, which is continually getting pregnant? Are you fed-up with the heartbreaking sight of kittens struggling to survive on the street? Or perhaps you have a stray tomcat wandering into your garden and intimidating your own moggie? Do not fret Bali peeps, humane solutions are at hand! Dealing with the Stray Tomcat Male cats that have not been sterilized will naturally wander to ¿nd females to mate with, as well as ¿nding food. This often leads to a dispute when the male enters the territory of your cat, causing physical ¿ghts or just a great deal of stress for your cat. A physical ¿ght can cause injury such as a cat bite abscess, and also spread contagious diseases such as Feline Leukemia Virus or Feline Immunode¿ciency Virus (‘cat aids’), although those viruses are thankfully less prevalent in Bali than in the West. Even if there is no physical ¿ghting, the stress from the stray cat’s presence can cause your cat to display other behavioral symptoms such as urinating or defecating inside the house. The only humane solution to this problem is to trap the stray tomcat, sterilize him and if necessary relocate him. Before taking a decision to relocate, it is important to be certain that a neighbor does not own the cat! Obviously if he is wearing a collar, or if he is reasonably friendly and approachable, then he is probably not a stray and you should ask around your neighbors if anyone recognizes the cat and knows who the owner is. If you conclude that he is most de¿nitely a stray, you can contact your local vet clinic for advice. For example Sunset Vet’s ‘help a stray’ package includes: 1. We set up a humane cat trap in your garden 2. You call us when the stray is inside the trap 3. We collect the cat and sterilize, vaccinate, de-worm, de-Àea, shampoo and do a general health check 4. We release the neutered stray near your property the following day, or at a new location if requested

What we remove

Dealing with the continually pregnant (or soon to be pregnant) stray mama cat When trapping a mama cat, it is important to consider whether she is already feeding kittens less than 6 weeks old, as they will suffer if she is taken away for 24-48 hours. If she does have enlarged mammary glands, it may be better to wait a while until those kittens have been weaned.

The procedure for trapping and releasing a female cat is the same as for a male (see above ‘help a stray’ package). When she is sterilized, there are no skin sutures to be removed so she can be released the following day just like a male. To avoid attempting sterilization surgery on the same female cat twice, females are marked by cutting a small wedge in their ear or by a tattoo on the inner ear Àap. The mortality rate among newborns from stray cats is huge. This suffering is easily avoided by simply catching and neutering any stray adult female. Not only does it prevent the heartbreaking sight of starving and frail kittens dying on the street, or being callously dumped as so often ends up happening, it also gives the adult female a far less stressful life. What to do with abandoned kittens The earlier kittens are separated from their mother after birth, the lower their chance of survival. With newborn kittens the prognosis of surviving from bottle-feeding is very low, even with a wonderful, kind-hearted person doing their best to look after it. This is because newborn kittens are very frail and need constant nurturing from their mother, they need to be kept warm and feed every couple of hours round the clock, and they need to acquire antibodies from their mama’s milk. Thus the optimal solution for a newborn abandoned kitten is to adopt it onto a lactating mama cat and hope the kitten is accepted as her own. Failing that, for newborn kittens, euthanasia is usually the kindest option. For kittens that are at least 7-10 days old when abandoned (which is when they open their eyes) but less than 4 weeks, the prognosis is still very guarded and many will not make it. However with intensive nursing, some do pull through. Those that survive are bottle or syringe fed kitten milk (available from pet shops and vet clinics) every few hours, including during the night, until they can start eating cat food from aged around 3-4wks. They can also be de-wormed at this age, and every 2wks thereafter until they are 12wks old. At 8 weeks old they are given their ¿rst vaccination. Approximately 3-4 weeks later they require a second vaccination, and some are also given a third vaccination 2wks after that if the ¿rst shot was done very early.

The therapeutic value of one addict helping another is without parallel

C/NV/I-02 Sept. 15

Looking after very young abandoned kittens is very labor intensive, so many rescuers in Bali outsource that to their local vet clinic, which may have 24hr staf¿ng and thus be able to offer round the clock care. If the kittens are very lucky and survive until they have had all their vaccinations, they are ready to ¿nd their “fur-ever” home. If an adopter has not yet been found, kittens may then be sent to Villa Kitty, a wonderful foundation for abandoned cats and discarded kittens based in Ubud. They rehabilitate, immunise, sterilise & rehome and can be contacted via their Facebook page ‘Villa Kitty Bali’ or by phone (+6285857584131).

Sunset Vet offers veterinary services via their Kuta (24hr) and Ubud (8am-7pm) clinics. For further information or to make an appointment call them on 0361754881 (Kuta) or 0361975296 (Ubud), or visit www.sunsetvetbali.com or www.facebook.com/ sunsetvetbali Copyright © 2015 Bali Advertiser You can read all past articles of Sunset Vet at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz Space for this ad donated by Bali Advertiser C/NV/U-02 Sept 15

BA Feature Article

Bali Advertiser

09 December - 23 December, 2015

BA Feature Article The Bali Mandara Academy Nurturing our Future Leaders SMA Negeri Bali Mandara is an unusual and quite remarkable high school which selects only children from the poorest and most underprivileged backgrounds and provides them a golden opportunity to be educated in all areas that best equip them for success in life. The school’s focus is on creating the future leaders of Indonesia by instilling skills for leadership, creativity, entrepreneurship, character building and discipline. This initiative was the brainchild of Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika and is entirely funded by the Bali government. Located close to Singaraja, this institute is an impressive example how education can attain levels far beyond the mandated public school curriculum. Like the renowned Green School albeit in a different way, the Academy uses an international curriculum (Cambridge IGCSE) and innovative methods to prepare students for outstanding careers both local and global. This past August the school enrolled some 190 new students, a substantial increase from the ¿rst year when 75 students started their education there. Considering this is just its 4th year of operation, the success of attracting quali¿ed pupils is undeniable. Although there are many poor and underprivileged children in Bali, the school only accepts those that exhibit the type of ability and character that ¿ts its pro¿le. Candidates are not solely selected on the basis of academic achievement or intelligence; the overriding criterion is integrity of character in conjunction with certain talents and aptitudes that the school considers paramount for their leadership roles. The selection process follows well-de¿ned criteria. Village heads are invited to submit names of possible candidates from certi¿ed poor families in their village. Both the prospective student and the parents are interviewed, the candidate undergoes thorough testing, and if the pro¿le is satis¿ed, the student is invited to enroll. The vision of the Mandara Academy is to create future leaders of good character with strong academic skills, an enquiring and critical mind, an appreciation of Indonesian and foreign cultures and an awareness of local and global issues. To this end, the school has established a strict and challenging 3-year curriculum that will prepare students to be global visionaries, responsible citizens and competent decision makers. Education includes classroom learning, sports & recreational pastimes, and cultural immersion. The mission of the school is to build character, leadership values and life skills while motivating students to pursue their dreams and aspirations. Life on campus. The Mandara Academy campus is located on a 5 hectare wooded lot in Kubutambahan village, some 3 kilometers east of Singaraja. It is an appealing and green environment with several blocks of new buildings housing the classrooms, activity areas and dormitories, surrounded by gardens. Sports terrains and a semi-open common area for eating and social activities complement the attractive design. As the academy wants to be an eco-friendly environment, the architecture is based on permaculture principles and the premises include gardens and integrate natural environments. All students are boarders; they live full-time in a dormitory at the school and the boarding house system is designed as a program of activities to occupy their study-time and leisure hours. They are encouraged to participate in various afterschool activities that are geared to equip them with social and lifelong skills that will complement, broaden and enrich their educational baggage. Reminiscent of the selection process at Harry Potter’s Hogwarts School, students are grouped into different houses which all carry animal names like Dolphin, Dove, Eagle, Hornbill, Komodo, Lion, Manta Ray, Rhino and Shark. The 9 houses accommodate students from diverse backgrounds, religions and cultures. They form a homogenous unit that

substitutes as a family group and have a teacher as house parent. The houses form sheltering and protective environments where students find warmth, caring and understanding and learn to live cooperatively and harmoniously. The houses take turns in cleaning and gardening duties. On the fun side they compete with each other in contests, games, tournaments and school or community service activities. Curriculum and education. With the emphasis on cultivating leadership, all ¿rst-year students go through Leadership Camp in their ¿rst semester. The Camp is based on warrior and survival games and outbound activities which instill leadership qualities and drive home the point that to be a good leader, one must not only be pro¿cient in leading others but also be capable of leading oneself. The school’s curriculum is partly taught in English and heavily weighted towards the humanities and science (physics, mathematics, biology) though other subjects like foreign languages, creative arts (dance, music) and physical education (sports, marching) ¿ll out busy days. It is based on the requirements for obtaining the Cambridge International General Certi¿cate of Secondary Education (IGCSE), an academically rigorous, internationally used, and specialized English language curriculum. It prepares all students for an International Baccalaureate, A Level and BTEC (Business and Technology Education Council) Level 3. All Bali Mandara students are required to sit and pass the IGCSE examinations before graduation. This IGCSE based curriculum is what sets the school apart from the ordinary Indonesian school system. Obviously geared towards high achieving students, the education it provides will equip the student for a better professional life. Bali Mandara alumni are given the tools and skills to succeed in their future endeavors and most go on to continue their education at universities or institutions of higher learning in Indonesia and abroad. Because of their outstanding academic achievements, students can apply for higher education scholarships. All students participate in various out of classroom activities that include a broad spectrum of intellectual, social and recreational pastimes. The Sispala Intaran is an outdoor, nature loving group. The Scouts practice survival techniques and community service. Other groups like the Nursing Club and the Librarian team have speci¿c interests. Community service projects involve all students to help people and their environment. They do beach and market cleanups and teach people how to take better care of their environment. They go to primary schools to teach basic hygiene. Outside of classes and other mandated pursuits, students are encouraged to pursue their own interests and acquire new hobbies. There are clubs for those interested in learning more about astronomy, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, economics, geography, technology, foreign languages, bridge, etc, besides the usual sports-and cultureoriented groups that regale in archery, Balinese dance, theatre, music, painting, broadcasting and journalism. All these groups compete in academic and non-academic ways amongst each other and against other school groups on the district, national and international level. Their numerous medals and awards attest to their skills and prowess. They take frequent ¿eld trips to other schools and various cultural attractions. The teachers and faculty staff at Bali Mandara are as exceptional as their students. The teaching staff is a cadre of young and dedicated professionals. Like the students, they live on-campus and interact with them on a daily basis. They

By Ines Wynn are teacher, friend, in loco parentis, comforter, motivator, confessor all in one. They push and pull, live the challenges and achievements along with their charges and are personally involved in making life on campus a pleasant and enriching experience. Their task is to keep students motivated and keep them pointed towards their selected goals. Motivation, TEDx style. Motivation is a key word at Bali Mandara and many activities are organized for the sole purpose of keeping students on track and sustaining the focus on their goals. The faculty understands that losing motivation is losing the roadmap to success. Therefore all means are utilized to maintain and refresh that spirit. Frequent guests at the school are invited to give motivational speeches and the message of the talks is inked on small boards that are prominently displayed throughout the school. Celebrities like pop singer Andre Hehanussa have given motivational talks. Andre talked about using the driving power of love. Soleman founder Robert Epstone has shared his secret for never giving up in the face of acute challenges. Given the successful impact of formats like TEDx and Pechakucha, informal talks and presentations are organized for the bene¿t of Bali Mandara students throughout the academic year. Any topic emphasizing that motivation is a key ingredient to success can be presented either live on campus or in video format. TEDx format is normally limited to 18 minutes to create the most impact. PechaKucha format offers another creative pulpit for rapid-¿re audio-visual presentations on social, cultural, artistic, environmental, spiritual, current day, serious and not so serious topics. Its presentation format is simple: 20 images shown for 20 seconds, each accompanied by succinct commentary. It’s a format that makes presentations concise and keeps them moving at a rapid pace. Always different, enlightening, sometimes nutty or inspiring and totally entertaining. The first in this year ’s series of motivational talks took place last month when the youthful team from Bye Bye Plastic Bags (BBPB) landed at the academy and proceeded with a well planned and inspirational 2-day program to acquaint the Bali Mandara students with their mission. They organized workshops, dividing the students in small groups, each led by a BBPB team member. They discussed the plastic waste situation at school, their families, and their villages. The next day the BBPB team and a group of 150 Mandara students joined together for a proper beach cleanup, afterwards evaluating the trash and recycling possibilities. The entire effort resulted in a jointly made plan for future co-operation which netted the BBPB a new partner school and a new team of 50 members on the North coast of Bali. More talks by motivational experts and practitioners are planned in the coming months and the expat community in Bali is invited to be part of that continuing effort. The welcome mat is permanently out for any Bali hand, expat, tourist or local, with an interesting and inspiring story to tell to the student body. Who is willing to take up the challenge?
