TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Love and Death in Bali by Vickie Baum Set against the backdrop of the Dutch invasion of Bali in 1906, and the subsequent mass ritual suicide of Balinese royalty, this dramatic story is told through the e y e s a number of d i v e r s e characters who have been caught up in the tragedy. Vicki Baum weaves the lives of Balinese from every sector of colonial society - from peasants and nobles to slaves and mystics - into the fabric of the narrative. Daily village life, customs and rites of the peaceful and deeply spiritual Balinese are described in great detail, capturing the essence of a critical event in Balinese history, which earned the Dutch worldwide condemnation. The characters were undoubtedly drawn from real life: the casteless peasant Pak and his family, friends and feudal lord; the proud performer Raka famed for his beauty; the impulsive youth Oka; the unfaithful Rawa with bad teeth, the petite and pretty dancer Lambon and her selfish but likeable brother; the bored Dutch bureaucrat Boomsmer. Written within living memory of the bloody events called the puputan (the “ending”), Love and Death in Bali portrays the moment Bali’s last independent kingdom defied the Dutch imperial forces through an act that would bring members of the court certain death as well as certain rebirth in what would become a powerful and poignant example of symbolic resistance. The looting of a Chinese trading ship gives Dutch colonial authorities the perfect excuse to intervene in island affairs, but instead of surrender the soldiers encounter astonishing resistance. In the Battle of Badung, wave upon wave of Balinese, clothed in white ceremonial garb with kris daggers in hand, charged into the blazing Dutch guns, resulting in the horrific annihilation of the entire royal family and the extension of Dutch rule over the whole island. Prolific German writer Vicki Baum (1888-1960), with more than 50 novels to her credit, is best known for her stylish novel Grand Hotel (Menschen im Hotel or “People at a Hotel”), published in 1929. One of the first modern bestselling authors, Baum’s books are considered to be among the first examples of contemporary mainstream literature, her Grand Hotel virtually spawning the genre of human interest disaster movies. After the novel won her international acclaim and financial success, Baum visited Bali in 1935. Becoming enchanted with the island, Baum met the charming and influential German artist and musician Walter Spies, a longtime Bali resident with an unrivaled knowledge of Balinese life. In her spoof Introduction in Love and Death in Bali, Baum writes that the raw material for fashioning her compelling tale was compiled from the meticulous historical

and cultural notes bequeathed to her by a “Dr. Fabius,” who is actually a pseudonym for Walter Spies. Adrian Vickers, author of Bali: A Paradise Created, has pointed out that Baum’s novel incorporates Spies’ general views of Bali art, music and culture, which is remarkably very much like those of today’s usual Western visitor to Bali. Spies painstakingly edited Baum’s text to make the ethnographic information was authentic and to give the book local color to make it read so vividly and powerfully. So, Vickers maintains, this unquestioned classic embodies a significant part of the image we have today of Bali and its people. While Grand Hotel stormed the stages on both sides of the Atlantic, and ultimately led to a film featuring Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1931, the book typed her as a light “woman’s writer” of the sort that appeared in magazines. Baum was not to realize literary success again until the publication of Liebe und Tod auf Bali in 1937, one the last books she wrote in German. All of her post-World War II works were written in English.

NC/Ns/I-09 Jan 13

The English edition, Love and Death in Bali, was subsequently listed as a bestseller in the New York Times. Coincidentally, the book was published the same year as Miquel Covarrubias’ Island of Bali, which ensured that it fell on well-prepared ground and was enthusiastically received. Baum became an American citizen in 1938. She died of leukemia in Hollywood, California in 1960. The insightful Foreword is written by award-winning author Nigel Barley. Trained as an anthropologist and linguist, Barley served some twenty years as an Assistant Keeper of the British Museum, where he was curator of the African and Indonesian collections. His most recent book, Island of Demons, is a novelistic treatment of the artist Walter Spies and his milieu.

Although portions of the book make for dry reading in this day and age, the writing is straightforward and has its fair quotient of drama so that the reader’s interest doesn’t flag. Reading the book in Bali makes the story come more to life and the descriptions are helpful in understanding the Balinese way of life. In the same manner that she used in Grand Hotel, Baum does not employ elaborate physical description but lets her characters, regardless of their social position, show their strengths and weaknesses through their thoughts, deeds and attitudes to authority, which makes them convincing. This enduring classic is considered one of the finest novels ever written about Bali before the modern age of mass tourism when the island was still an earthly South Sea “paradise.” Now with reissue of this refurbished handsome paperback edition under its original title, this evocative historical novel of human error and virtue will continue to take its place as essential and relevant reading for first time visitors and old Bali hands alike. Love and Death in Bali by Vickie Baum, Tuttle Publishing 2011, ISBN 978-080-484-1801, paperback, 384 pages, dimensions 5.1 x 1 x 8 inches.

Rhino Biss at Bali Safari and Marine Park. How does it feel to have an amorous, fully grown rhino climb onto your back with just one thing on his mind? A quiet whisper in the ear of Hima, the female rhinoceros at Bali Safari and Marine Park, evokes little more than a grin. Mating seems the most natural thing in the world, until it comes to the mighty rhinos living in captivity, when a little encouragement is required. The future of Bali Safari and Marine Park’s population of two white African rhinos, affectionately named Hima and Nelson was given a much-needed boost recently with the arrival of three eminent German specialists in the field of rhino and elephant fertilization. With a little human intervention and much needed encouragement however, it seems that Nelson has finally hit the sweet spot and now it is simply a matter of time to see whether Hima can look forward to the sound of little hooves. “ Rhinos are the only animals that learn how to mate by example. The only other mammals that do this are humans. The team of German vets who visited us, has been able to inseminate our female with sperm taken from the male, using equipment they have pioneered, and we also pulled out all the stops to encourage them to mate naturally,” explains Tim Husband, Head Curator at the park in Gianyar. German veterinarians Drs Thomas Hildebrandt, Robert Hermes and Frank Goeritz, are the world’s leading specialists in the field of pachyderm reproduction. When it comes to these thick-skinned mammals, weighing in at over a ton, the mating game is serious business. “ This is the first time this team have visited Indonesia and the success of the trial has serious ramifications for the indigenous population of rhinos that is currently at risk. For now we are focusing on our own population and we are happy to say, we’ve made excellent progress,” explained a relieved Mr. Tony Sumampau, Director Taman Safari Indonesia. The pachyderm population of the Park includes its elephants and the team of specialist vets examined all the elephants to check their reproductive health, some “plumbing” problems were diagnosed and fixed, a number were discovered to be pregnant and sperm was collected for future insemination. All around a very successful visit declares Tim. “ Each animal has a distinct set of genitals, none are the same. These guys have pioneered the field of rhino and elephant insemination and their expertise goes beyond simple sperm collection.” Breeding programs within zoos and parks are essential to the research and development of the species and the health of a zoo’s animal population. The knowledge gained can then be useful to wild animal populations in certain circumstances. The chance of extinction when humans are a contributing factor, is one case when animal welfare groups feel intervention is justified. “To also be able to increase wildlife numbers through the knowledge we have gained will be advantageous for all conservation breeding programs” says Mr. Tony Sumampau, Director Taman Safari Indonesia. In the meantime, as Nelson and Hima head blissfully into the bushes, the staff at Bali Safari and Marine Park are breathing a sigh of relief that love is in the air and all is right with the pachyderms.

MANGO SEASON

When I contracted my land in Ubud, I was delighted to find several mature mango trees on it. This was an auspicious beginning, since mangoes are my favourite fruit. When I moved into my new house one tree in particular was heavy with the biggest fruits I had ever seen. Weighing in at almost a kilogram each, they were sweet and dense with succulent juice. It took about four days to get through one. I anticipated harvesting these heavenly mangoes every season from then on and sharing them with my friends. The tree did not bloom again for almost ten years. Maybe we built the water tower too close to it and offended its root system in some way. Maybe a bad spirit had taken up residence. Perhaps it didn’t like the flowering vine that was growing on it. Several hypotheses were put forth, along with a list of bizarre remedies to appease the capricious tree. We made special offerings and prayers to it, threatened it and beat it with boards, fertilized it with various potions, dug basalt dust around it, implored it to be reasonable, all with no result. Every other mango tree on my street was bursting with blossom and fruit, so clearly there was at least one male tree within pollinating distance by wind and insects. This was a mango tree with attitude. Meanwhile the tree did a good job of providing privacy from the three storey Balinese house across the road which would otherwise have an unimpeded view of the exotic foreigner’s garden and drying laundry. Under its shady branches a rich compost of fallen leaves created a perfect environment for snails which feasted on my rare vegetable seedlings. Toads, which gathered there in the rainy season, serenaded one another and had lengthy romantic encounters in the leaf mold. Doves rested among its dense leaves on hot afternoons. In the tree’s branches a green pit viper lived peaceably for years until Nyoman inadvertently exerted just a little too much pressure in capturing it and persuading it into a big empty aqua bottle, where it tragically expired. Lots of action, but no mangoes.

1830s. The English word mango originated from the Tamil mankay or Malayalam manna, which the Portuguese interpreted as mangga, the word used in Indonesian today. There are over 500 varieties of mangoes – large and small, smooth and fibrous, sweet and sour. It’s possible to graft several varieties onto one root stock, and get different kinds of mangoes growing on a single tree. Mangoes are wonderfully nutritious both as a fruit and when eaten green as a vegetable. A ripe mango eaten an hour ahead is reputed to enhance the effects of inhaling the smoke of a certain recreational herb (not in Indonesia, of course).

Several hypotheses were put forth, along with a list of bizarre remedies to appease the capricious tree A mango (Mangifera indica) tree can grow to over 35 metres (100 feet) tall and over a metre thick. On sustainably managed mango plantations, trees are replaced about every 20 years when they reach a good size and have passed their optimum productivity. The wood, with its attractive grain, is increasingly popular for making furniture and other products. My mango wood desktop is made from a single plank 70 cm deep and 7 cm thick. Selling the wood provides additional revenue for mango farmers and the craftsmen who work with it. Mango peel, leaves and sap contain urushiol, the chemical that causes contact dermatitis in people sensitive to poison ivy, sumac and oak. The mango is a member of the Anachardiaceae family and besides poison ivy and poison oak, its distant relatives include the cashew, pistachio and Jamaica plum.

Now it’s mango season again. The shops and markets are full of mangoes, but I am holding out. The big mango tree has just three fat fruits high up in its branches. A grafted tree I bought about five years ago has a dozen more. I’m not holding my breath, but yes, I will be very happy to sink my teeth into my own mangoes at last. Mangoes originated in India, Burma and the Andaman Islands. Buddhist monks and Indian and Persian traders are believed to have introduced the mango to Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The Portuguese brought it to Brazil and the West Indies, and mango cultivars arrived in Florida in the

During mango season, Wayan Manis constantly swats flies off the counter and swabs everything with bleach. The parrots snap at flies that pass their perches. The dogs flap their ears in irritation. The chickens, sadly, do not seem to consider them food although I am constantly pointing out the benefits of augmenting their diet with this high protein snack. How to manage an invasion of several hundred mangomaddened flies? The only locally available, non-chemical recourse is fly paper, that old stand-by used by my grandmother. Anything that touches these sheets of brown paper coated liberally with rubber cement is well and truly stuck, whether it was the intended target or not. Sometimes a breeze will blow the paper against a cushion or a slumbering dog. More often it captures a cicak (small house lizard) lured by what seems like a free lunch of plump, buzzing flies trapped on the paper. The little creatures are sometimes found glued flat to the fly paper from the tip of the nose to the tail. (Over the years I’ve developed an effective solution to this domestic drama. Soak a cotton Q-tip with cooking oil and gently push oil all around the cicak. Then, starting at the tail, roll the oily cotton tip underneath it, working gently down the limbs and under the fragile little toes, and liberating the head last. The lizard escapes undamaged with tail intact, though it does not stick to walls very well for a while after that until the oil wears off and it gets its traction back.) Every day I go out to check my trio of long-awaited mangoes. They are still green, so there are a few weeks to go. Mango trees are long-lived, with some specimens still reputedly bearing some fruit after 300 years. So I won’t give up. This mango tree has attitude, but so do I.

Meanwhile I was making the disappointing discovery that the other mango trees in the garden were almost certainly males. The gender of tropical fruit trees was a closed book to me but Wayan Manis, my trusty housekeeper, declared after several years that these trees had never flowered and were therefore not worth keeping. One by one I cut them down with some reluctance, since I’d sited the house so as not to disturb them. But Wayan was right, the garden was too small for nonproductive fruit trees. Now we have citrus and durian instead. Then last year the big mango mama bloomed for the first time in many years. I rubbed my hands with delight as the mangoes developed and started to grow. Just before they began to ripen I had to return to Canada for three months, and missed the whole harvest. But Wayan told me the mangoes had all been full of worms and not one had been salvaged.

Musca domestica, or common house flies,’ breed like… well, flies. Only 36 hours after emerging from the pupa the female fly is receptive to mating. She lays approximately 500 eggs in several batches during her lifetime of 15 to 25 days, long enough to generate up to 20 generations a year in the tropics and annoy me considerably. House flies are known to carry over 100 diseases including typhoid, cholera, Salmonella, bacillary dysentery and anthrax, so they are undesirable house guests.

Mango season in Bali starts in about November and goes on until January or so. You can revel in mango daiquiris, mango smoothies, mango tart, mango gelato, mango salsa or just mango after mango. Mango season, however, has its downside. You may have noticed that with mangoes come flies. No one can explain to me why this is so, but the Balinese all seem to agree that the swarms of houseflies that plague us at this time of year are directly connected with mango season. This has nothing to do with a sudden drop in your hygiene standards. No one is exempt. If it makes you feel any better, even the five star resorts and most elegant villas have flies.

Made Wijaya:

Garden Artist

Made Wijaya was born Michael White in Sydney, Australia. He literally splashed ashore on Bali in 1973 from a visiting boat. After various jobs teaching tennis and English, working as a tourist guide and photojournalist, he began contributing to guidebooks before being asked to design the gardens of the legendary Bali Oberoi. More than 600 gardens later, Made now runs a world renowned tropical garden design company employing a 250–strong team of “garden commandos.” A recognized authority on tropical gardens and South East Asian architecture, he has published five books on tropical gardening and architecture. Made writes the popular column “Stranger in Paradise– Diary of an expatriate in Bali” (www.strangerinparadise. com) for NowBali magazine and Jakarta Post, produces videos (wijayapilem2 archive) on You Tube, and is working on a new book Majapahit Style. Where did you grow up? Sydney...Bondi…Double Bay. Perfect Australian childhood, filled with sun and surf and pedophiles. I mean that in a nice (legowo) and not nasty (astaga naga) kind of way. Why did you convert to Hinduism? I first lived in Bali with a Brahman family. I was 21 years old. I lived with the family, who are still my family, in a small rural village for 6 years without going out. I fell in love with the people and the cycle of rituals and ceremonies and really adopted the Bakti Yoga lifestyle without any profound commitment to a philosophy. After six years I was a bit of a soi disant feudalist and it helped in artist-worker relations with my Balinese staff of commando gardeners as I transformed slowly but surely into a feudal overlord with a big sweet spot. To whom do you attribute your love of gardening? My mother was a great gardener in our small back yards. My early birthday parties in Cooper Park Sydney and my love of Sydney botanical gardens were formative. My Dad gave me a Super 8 camera and I raced to the Woolahra Library gardens heavens knows why maybe coz I was into surf life savers and Judy Garland at the time. What kind of work have you done in your life that prepared you for your present occupation? Skinning rabbits at the Mudgee Rodeo prepared me for

dealing with wealthy Jakarta Chinese. Listening a lot to the goons prepared me for project management in East India. Er, BEING A JUNIOR TENNIS CHAMPION (I was the first Young Masters Champion of Australia Under 17) TAUGHT ME GRIT AND RESILIENCE AND STAYING POWER which one really needs to complete design projects. What was the first garden you designed? The first garden I designed and realized in Australia was my fantasy Japanese-Balinese courtyard home in the burnt out Victorian bungalow of the pioneer suffragette Bessie Guthrie in Glebe, Sydney. In Bali it was the Yasa Samudra in Kuta for Mama Dollar, god bless her. It was horrendous, like a mini golf course water world with very twee planting.

I admired, first, Japanese gardens, then Balinese house gardens, then the more theatrical gardens of East Bali palaces and Java and then the rest of South East Asia. Travel is the best teacher. One has to remain inquisitive. And in love with nature. I admire the work of Geoffrey Bawa, Donald Friend’s garden in Sanur (destroyed by the great Ed Tuttle and Adrian Zecha.... enemies of the romantic movement), Kew Garden...all English gardens....many French gardens (Courance, Villandry, Fontainbleu, Chantilly)..Mayan Ruinscapes....the royal tomb gardens of Hue... Venice, Keraton Pakubuwono (Kesesuhunan) in Solo, Minangkabau and Nias and Sumba megalithic sites, Shalimar...Mohammad Hafez the Poet’s tomb and garden in Shiraz, Iran...Ishahan. Central Park... THE ALHUMBRA (MY ALL TIME FAVORITE); the generalife at Cordoba, the Allerton garden in Kuai; Taman Mayura, Lombok; Candi Ceto and Belahan in Java...all great teachers. When designing a garden for a client, what are the most difficult preconceptions or misconceptions that you have to deal with or overcome? That I only do Balinese gardens. That I’m expensive (our rates are industry standard). That I only take on celebrity jobs. Once through all that, one has to convince convince convince...then defend defend defend (the concept). Which nationalities or cultures are the most pleasant and exciting to work for and why? The Balinese to work with of course (utter bliss and joy.... a lesson in grace and deportment, geometry and theology every day) and the Indians as clients (they get all the jokes; they can appreciate romantic gardens; they love decorative art; they dare to be different).

C/Ns/G-28 Nov. 12

How does your work stand out or differ from the work of other top designers in your field? In the tropical world...Bill Bensley and I are the theatrical nature people. He does American brassy, I do more European cozy. We are both garden artists, but I’m more purist/classicist. In the tropical world, I often find other designer’s work derivative and lacking in follow through. Its not perfectionist enough...like European and particularly English garden designers work....they get all the elements right (the signage, the garden furniture, the hardscape is subtle). I HATE THE MINDLESS, TREELESS, LOVELESS NEW ASIA LANDSCAPE DESIGN MOVEMENT so I detest the work of all those fascistionistas like the plague. What are the forces that will ultimately kill traditional Balinese architecture? IT’S INDESTRUCTIBLE DUE TO THE FORCES INHERENT IN THE CULTURE, the adat isti adat of Hindu-Dharma that virtually guarantee its survival. What advice can you give to aspiring professional garden designers? Learn to garden first. Get some business experience first (I didn’t and really suffered for ten years). Don’t believe anything an architect tells you.

The BizWiz Simplify business chaos… create value and release hidden profit

Sell or Stay? Part 2 Continuing on from last issue where we commenced review of minimum requirements that a buyer must gain from buying your business before s/he considers the cream in your offering. These include: • • • • • • • • •

Scalability Focus Competitive edge Business model Cash flow Customer base Legal structure Business team Financial backbone

As part of Scalability, last issue we considered the need for your business to be repeatable. Here we continue with the scalability requirements of teachable and valuable. 2. Teachable – Do you have consistent business rules about your processes, or are you the only person who can make the decisions on a case by case basis? Like, is it a bad hair day and everyone can get stuffed, or I had a great night last night and bonuses all around? Are you the only person who can make things work, or do you need other clever people, or have you broken the work down to easily executed and managed pieces?

teach to others. You can’t scale in this instance. An impossible situation then develops when owners, as the experts, are requested by customers personally. Thus, the business becomes centered around owners, and a business that is too dependent on its owner is not sellable. 3. Valuable to your customers – what makes your product or service valuable to your customers? Do you deliver creative products and innovation? Where are you vulnerable to competition? Not only do you need to deliver value in your product or service, but you need to tell a great story about it. A story that is consistent and authentic. Everything about your business, your products, your sites (physical and web), your people and their personalities and skills, your processes tells a story. If it’s a great story it’s the same story, it’s consistent. The story helps sell what people are truly buying, which is about how they feel. A great story helps your customer feel great. And if it is an authentic story, if the promise it offers holds true, then you have an opportunity to survive and grow. An average product with a great story will help your business survive far better than a great product with a mediocre story.

When I first came to Bali I met a woman who had been sent here by a new start-up business called Novica. Their business model was to put people into developing and exotic countries to source decorator products and personal accessories, for fast courier delivery to consumers.

SAFELY RIDING A MOTOR BIKE IN BALI Riding a motor bike can give a sense of freedom, elation and a wonderful sense of having the wind blowing through your hair. However with this sense of elation comes the downside of being in an accident which could result in serious injury or death. Road deaths are the single largest cause of death in Bali. The most common reason for hospitalization is injuries due to motorbike accidents. Officials state that inexperience on unfamiliar roads and traffic conditions contribute to a large number of injury and death on the road. Most of these deaths are young people aged 18 -30. The Australian Consulate state that 39 Australians died in the past 12 months and 93 required help after hospitalization. A tragic end to what was to be a great holiday.

thinking you will be okay has led to severe accidents and death. DON’T ride too closely to a vehicle in front. Should they have to stop suddenly or swerve you don’t want to end up in the back seat of their car or as a passenger on the bike in front. DON’T ride without a brake light. We need to see that you are going to stop or slow down. Also don’t brake too suddenly not leaving the following vehicles time to stop. Domino effect. DON’T ride without lights at night. Make sure you can be seen especially in dimly lit areas. DON’T ride without having a well-maintained bike. Good tires, lights, brakes and mirrors are essential for your safety on the road. DON’T overload you bike either with people or things. How often does one see an overloaded bike wobbling their way on the road? A pig being carried on the bike was mind boggling. I must admit feeling sorry for the pig though. DON’T go over median strips. Use a legal U-Turn. New median strips are being built higher to discourage this practice. Ha ha.

As one is aware there are many types of vehicles on the road and motor bikes make up the majority. Most of us non motor bikers have at some time held our breath when seeing some bike riders test their ‘skill’ or is it a death wish? I must say too that I have not been immune to saying a few profanities at times. What has led me to write on this topic? Being a car driver I have of lot of observations of those I share a road with. Wanting neither to be a statistic nor contribute to a statistic. I have had my own experience when learning to ride. Apparently my balance and traffic awareness was good, however I hadn’t mastered the stop and start with my automatic bike. I had pulled up outside the supermarket and decided to move my bike another meter or so closer. The bike took off with myself still clinging to the handlebars and crashed into the supermarket. Luckily for all there was a step which saved all the glass counters inside! Badly shaken but only slightly hurt and hugely embarrassed by the many onlookers I went and had my lunch with my helmet on. Most of my friends still have a good laugh at this and comment “ we all have an accident at some time”. On a more serious note a friend a few years ago fell from her bike into the path of a car. Her leg was so badly broken requiring an operation in Singapore. Unfortunately the outcome was amputation of her leg at the knee.

DON’T drive on sidewalks. Roads are for vehicles and sidewalks for pedestrians to walk and keep them safe. They do not expect to be confronted by an impatient motor biker in their ‘safe’ walking space. DON’T break traffic rules because you see others do. Rules are there for your safety. In particular don’t go through the red light. Red means danger. DON’T drive without a current license. Police are constantly checking for those driving without. Tourists need to be aware you need to have a current drivers license and an international license. DON’T forget to have the registration paper for the bike. Saves a delay and explanation it is your bike/renters bike and is currently registered. Otherwise you may find yourself leaving your bike with police and having a long walk home. Lastly a pet hate of mine DON’T double up chatting to a friend using up a whole lane! And finally DON’T add to a chaotic situation at an intersection blocking all traffic that have to find a way out.

road. Several oversees countries recognize zebra crossings as being a safe place to cross but unfortunately here is not the case. I have seen many lose their tan in fright because of motor bikes in front and behind them. DO ensure proper maintenance for your bike to function at its best. DO make sure you have a bike suitable for you. A 250cc bike may not be the best choice. Many visitors who rent bikes have never ridden before and are unaware of the power of the bike. Make sure your feet can touch the ground. DO abide by the rules. Try to have a plan where you are going. Do try to be in the right position at traffic lights. All too many times bikes will cross directly in front of you. Extremely dangerous. DO leave enough room when passing cars. Vision mirrors are constantly being hit and rearranged. A horrid glare at the perpetrator doesn’t work. DO ensure you have enough fuel to get to your intended destination. For tourists you may find yourselves in a vulnerable position particularly late at night or out of town. DO be aware of roadwork or broken down vehicles. A branch of a tree sticking out of a vehicle or stuck in the road indicates a breakdown and drive with caution. DO watch your bag is safely in front of you. Ladies no bag strap hanging over shoulder. It avoids any bag snatching episodes. DO have your license and registration papers with you on every journey. Many a person who forgot has had experience of being caught without them. DO have travel insurance in case of accident. Some travel insurances do not cover motorbike riding so check details. Medical treatment here can be costly. A passenger on the bike is often not covered. Should you be unfortunate to have an accident get adequate treatment. Even a small cut can lead to infection. DO investigate any courses available for being a good bike rider. In some Australian states day courses are available.

MOST OF THE DON’TS ARE OBVIOUS BUT SERVE AS A REMINDER FOR SAFER DRIVING. Now for the DO’S which ultimately provide a safer and more pleasant environment for driving.

This article is not to dwell on gloom but to raise awareness of how to be a safe motor biker in Bali. I therefore will look at some Do’s and Don’ts

NO 1…DO wear a helmet. A legal requirement. It can save your life. Passengers are required to wear a helmet also. Increasingly I have noticed more children are wearing them too.

DON’T ride without wearing a helmet. Even going a short distance wearing a helmet can save your life. It is a fact that many persons are killed in close vicinity to home.

DO be patient on the road. With a lot of construction work at the moment and long delays keep calm and be patient. Haste and impatience can make you a patient in hospital.

DON’T use your mobile phone when riding. Not only is it not legal but your concentration on driving is compromised. Wait until you reach your destination or pull over to a safe spot if you do need to use the phone. Don’t hide your phone in your helmet we know that trick!

DO be courteous. Care about your safety and others who share the road with you.

DON’T listen to IPOD, as you won’t hear any approaching dangers.

DO stop at a red light. Other vehicles are using their traffic signals and won’t expect you to suddenly appear.

DON’T ride too fast. Self explanatory as speed can be a factor in accidents. Better to be late than never.

DO reduce speed and drive slowly. A golden rule for any driver.

DON’T ride when sleepy or drunk. Bad judgment in

DO respect pedestrians. Be aware of them crossing the

DO concentrate when driving. Lack of concentration is the cause of many accidents.

I hope these do’s and don’ts have highlighted a safer motorbike rider in Bali. For visitors your holiday will be enjoyed much more. For Bali residents just a reminder to keep Bali safe. On a personal note my motto is to avoid having an accident at all costs particularly with something bigger than yourself.. Bike riders take note.

09 January - 23 January, 2013

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE DECEMBER 26 - JANUARY 09, 2013

As we start our journey into 2013, Saturn and Pluto continue to work together to bring new solutions to old problems. Saturn is heroically uncovering deep sexual issues and wounds, while Pluto does its work of transforming, releasing and confronting. The New Moon begins this fortnight in the sign of Capricorn and Venus also enters on the 9th, while Mercury and the Sum make their transition into Aquarius on the 19th and 20th respectively. There is a lot of seriousness and sobriety now with this Capricorn theme of facing responsibility and duty. The Sun was conjunct Pluto as the New Year began. This promises to be another year of deep transformation as we continue in the cycle of Pluto in Capricorn squaring Uranus in Aries. (Remember this lasts through to 2015) 2012 was a large and momentous year and 2013 promises to continue to deliver the goods with regard to our personal and collective journey of spiritual unfoldment. The obvious recognition that we are all in this together, or unity conscious is delightfully sweeping through the masses. The truth about our governments and institutions and the neglect and injustices that have been perpetrated are more and more obvious. With recent events in India highlighting that it is time for people to stand together united in solidarity and proclaim their feelings. We have entered into a new paradigm where the ways of the past no longer are a frequency match for the evolution of our hearts. Things will change due to the organic nature of this evolution. NEW MOON 21 Capricorn 48 January 12, 2013 3:45 a.m.

ARIES Mars continues in Aquarius throughout January and it teamed up with Uranus the ruler of Aquarius at the very beginning of this year to receive its instructions from higher consciousness forces. A lot of new inventions and innovative ideas are going to filter through your mind and that of the collective now. These will bring the modifications to both your personal life and that of your interaction with the bigger picture. So although you are very self-oriented for the most part you will be deeply feeling your important part to play in the grand orchestration of events. Our personal lives touch many people with our day to day experiences.

LIBRA If romance seems to have eluded you for a moment and there is a more serious tone to your relating and you are thinking in terms of duration, it is all par for the course as Venus transits that challenging sign of Capricorn. The Lady of Love is busy setting her 2013 schedule and could be a little cold and stone faced. She does still enjoy the tactile nature of relationship and it’s possibly better to connect with another through touch rather than poetic words at this time. The Aquarian energy that is around is lending towards a little experimentation and looking at sexuality in a new and novel way. We are getting the opportunity to broaden our minds and perspectives.

TAURUS Venus in fellow earth sign Capricorn marks a period of relationship stability. You will be asked to have a deep and honest look at your relating as she teams up with Pluto and this will mark the beginning of either deep commitment or finalizing old and worn patterns of relating and relationships themselves. All is in order and the stage is set for the next round of intimacy. You enjoy the stabilizing factor of the Capricorn tone as the old boundaries begin to dissolve. It’s possible though to distinguish the new format and this brings a sense of comfort and soothes the nervous system which has been through a great deal over these past weeks.

SCORPIO You received some interesting prompting at the beginning of the month/year and have probably looked at creating a schedule and a program for your life, albeit however loosely that may have taken shape. Remember too that these are always open to modification and rerouting, but there is a certain sense of commitment and alignment that comes with setting intentions. Your follow through will be required on a lot of the impulses and directives you have received. Although these are big times across the entirety of humanity, they are particularly potent for you. There is a reason for this and it is time for you to accept your gifts and talents and use them.

GEMINI Mercury continues in Capricorn, almost through to the end of the fortnight and then moves into that visionary sign of Aquarius. It will only be there for a short stint of a couple of weeks so get ready for some radical thinking that could very well rock your world and throw you headlong into some new enterprises. Your mind will be sharp and quick with Mars also in that same fellow air sign. This is a great opportunity to harness the potent power of your thoughts. Look into the new sciences with regard to health, healing and manifesting. Using the mind to explore the subconscious programming and finding ways to release yourself from past hypnosis.

SAGITTARIUS Jupiter stations and turns direct at the end of the month. This marks the beginning of forward momentum and a renewed sense of adventure. What are your plans for pursuing your passions this year? How can you expand and grow and embrace change during these potent and powerfully transitional times? The mind is Jupiter’s theme while it continues in Gemini. The change to Cancer will come at the end of June when a very different flavor will ensue. Take courses, read, study and indulge your mental stimulation. Your cognitive mind has the capacity to intake copious amounts of information now. Being sedentary is going to inhibit the flow.

CANCER Another moon cycle that has you feeling relatively confident with the choices you have made for your life. The Full Moon promises to be a little more out there and centered on the external, rather than the internal and may find you out socializing. If you have been rather quiet of late and more introspective this could offer you the opportunity to share a little more with people on a much lighter note. Capricorn is your polar opposite sign and has brought you into the polarity of its more practical as opposed to emotional ways. Your feeling nature is valued and valuable and it is time now to put to the practice what you’ve learnt and achieving your goals.

CAPRICORN Still in the holding pattern of Saturn and Pluto sextile while the transit does its bit to concrete certain aspects of your life. Resources, property, contracts, agreements and authority all a part of this. You are so accustomed to the process by now that there is no fear experienced and a load more confidence and self-assuredness. Generosity is flowing and you are aware of the benefits of sharing resources and ideas. If you are one who is feeling challenged learn to relax your nervous system and find ways to loosen the grip of your thoughts. Techniques for becoming self-objective through observation are very powerful tools to pull you through this transformation.

LEO By fortnights end the Sun will have moved on into Aquarius and this marks the midway point of your personal birth year. What have you achieved since the end of July/August 2012? Are things working for you or do you need to broaden your horizons and expand your thinking to encompass a new way of being? You could well be feeling a little more detached than usual and craving your own company without necessarily missing any significant others in your life. It’s always a good practice to take a little time out for personal scrutiny and self-observation. There is a tendency to be too hard on yourself and yet with the forewarning you will be a little kinder and gentler on yourself.

AQUARIUS It’s almost birthday time and a lot of activity in the heavens in the constellation of Aquarius. Make hay while the sun shines or dare to be bold while the good vibes last. Others will be taking you a little more serious now as their thoughts turn to the bizarre and unusual. Your eccentricity will seem commonplace, so a good time to reinvent yourself and create a new avatar. You are becoming the person that you always knew you could be and this is the time to take the stage with it. Thoughts of community are looming larger than they have for a while and you will find yourself relegated to roles within yours, regardless of the size of it, that highlight your talents.

VIRGO This is a slightly more spiritual time for you when you seek the answers to some deep and eternal questions. Be prepared to ask them and also prepared to hear the answers. If changes to your life are required this is the perfect time to implement them. You have all the support you need to do the hard work and with reliable assistance. If trust has been your issue, then this is the time to do so, although of course you must use your discrimination abilities in all situations. There is no one dictating to you or who have unreasonable requests unless you choose to think so or feel a victim to them. What do you truly want? Let your higher-self guide the way.

PISCES Oh you Neptunian ones of the ethereal and luminous realms. This is the perfect time for you as the complimentary tones of the Aquarian frequencies resonate throughout the cosmos and you can hear the music of the spheres loudly. Allow the guidance to flow and trust in the impulses and instructions you receive at this time, as they are leading you into new waters; oceans, ponds, rivers and streams. Adapting to a new current takes a moment and when you surrender your control it becomes that much more effortless. Your heart is mending and soon there will be more adventures unfolding right before your eyes. This is a very auspicious time.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Why do Balinese just love Sweeping? Most visitors to Bali are mystified by how much Balinese seem to love sweeping. At the crack of dawn and again at sunset, no corner of a house compound is left untouched as a stiff broom scrapes back and forth, focusing mostly on leaves. Seen as unsightly to locals, fallen leaves must be taken care of at least twice a day if one is to be considered a good housekeeper. Here sweeping is encouraged from very early on: elementary school kids have certain days when they must bring brooms to school to help clean their own school grounds. Rubbish collectors have a broom on the truck that they use for sweeping up extraneous bits. Where we come from leaves are often left beneath trees or in garden beds either because we’re too damned lazy or because it functions as natural mulch. Generally leaves are dealt with on an irregular basis; perhaps as a ‘gardening impulse’ comes on at some random weekend moment. But certainly, sweeping is not an activity that one would ever consider spending much time on. Today with all the non-organic rubbish in Bali littered about the place and clogging our waterways, a pre-occupation with sweeping leaves and a blatant neglect is an irony indeed. For some reason, Balinese are quite happy to turn a blind eye to mountains of plastic cups littering the grass or walkways at a ceremony, even though this rubbish is unnatural and quite objectively unsightly. I see sweeping as more of a routine activity of virtue rather than something that actually functions to keep a place particularly free of rubbish, just looking neat and less dusty – if you don’t like leaves that is. Broom diligence is something, however, that may teach us foreigners about discipline – installing a sense of pride in our homes, and even in the ‘early hours’ one can build up a slight sweat from the workout. Sweeping may be a Balinese cleaning obsession that does superficially hide a few of the leaves and bugs, but sadly it does in no way deal with the environmental disasters that this island can no longer sweep under the mat.

Ok, 2012 is past and, I hope, with some of my hints this last year, your computer is still running well. But I want to help keep your expensive computer running better and your important data files safe into 2013! The start of the year is the best time to do these things, but actually, they really should be done monthly. So cautions aside, let’s get started: Increasing the Life of Hard Disk Taking care of your hard disk is important because this is the place where all the data is stored and once the hard disk crashes, data in most cases is not recoverable. There are data recovery programs which recover data from crashed hard disks but they are not for normal computer users and may be expensive. But why do hard disks crash and what can be done to prevent them from crashing? At the same time how can a hard disk be made more efficient? Here are the answers. C/CI/I-13 June 12

Hard disks crash due to many reasons: voltage fluctuations, physical impact, improper alignment and of course mechanical failure due to wear and tear of internal parts. Let us start one by one and get the answers to these problems. 1. Voltage fluctuations or spikes as they are called can be prevented by using voltage stabilizers or spike guards. This will limit the damage to the hard disk to a great extent. These are available locally at many elelctronic shops. 2. Physical impact. This one is easy: Don’t drop the hard drive or do keep it somewhere where it will not get hot! 3. The natural wear and tear of parts can be limited by defragmenting your hard disk from time to time. But what is fragmentation? Never mind what it is, just know it is bad, it is hard on your hard drive, and slows your computer down! So schedule your defragmentation program to automatically run weekly. To start disk defragmenter from the start menu, click the start button and follow this path (All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Defragmenter). A minimum of 15 percent free space on your disk is needed for disk defragmenter to run. The disk can also be defragmented automatically by using schedule task. This program can be accessed via system tools. 4. Disk cleanup increases the efficiency of the hard disk. So delete unwanted files and programs regularly. Follow the above rules to increase the life of your hard disk.

CCleaner Any application called CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/) where the first ‘C’ stands for Crap has to be good, right? Okay, maybe not, but this one is. It thoroughly cleans out your web browser, Recycle Bin and temporary files, registry, unnecessary third-party application trash, and oh so much more. Running CCleaner on your system promises to free up space, keep your computer running smoothly, and protect your privacy. It’s also very fast and very easy to use. Free Revo Uninstaller (http://www.revouninstaller.com/) is a feature-rich replacement for the Windows default Add or Remove Programs feature (or Uninstall Programs in Vista). Why use Revo Uninstaller instead? Because not only does it just uninstall a program—it also thoroughly removes all traces of the program from your system where the basic uninstaller may not. Revo also boasts a Hunter Mode for uninstalling apps by dragging a cross-hair onto the app you want to uninstall, whether it’s the app’s system tray icon or just a shortcut. It even helps manage your startup applications. You may feel it is worth the US$27.47, or try it as a free trial. Auslogics Disk Defrag Auslogics Disk Defrag (http://www.auslogics.com/disk-defrag) is a fast and effective disk defragmenter intended to replace the Windows default. It’s quick and easy to use, and Auslogics DD provides a nicely formatted report of the latest defrag, including a motivating “Defragmentation has increased this computer performance by X%” message. Free. OR use JkDefrag JkDefrag, now called MyDefrag v4.0 (http://www.mydefrag.com/) is an open-source disk defragmenting tool. Unlike Auslogics, MyDefrag boasts command line support to allow you to set up your disk defrags on a schedule. Perhaps even better, MyDefrag has an installable screensaver that will automatically start defragging your hard drive whenever the screensaver is launched—it even displays the defrag process. Out of the box MyDefrag isn’t the most attractive application you’ll ever use, but try it anyway. Free.

New Year’s budget resolutions: Start a budget for your personal/ household expenses, so you can pinpoint & then cut back on impulse purchases and splurges. Jump-start your savings by joining a neighborhood, family, office or school arisan. Start an emergency (3 months’ worth of living expenses) if you lose your job, have a medical crisis, your car gets rear-ended or your roof collapses. Set one goal for 2013 such as pay off a debt, put Rp50 million aside for your child’s university education, qualify for a bank loan, pay off the car, contribute towards your retirement. Get a decent living-wage paying job. Start giving the kids an allowance so they can learn how to budget. Buy lower-cost generic medicines (generik), clothing and spare parts for your car and motorbike (semi). Eat out less. Cook budget meals. Make your own bread and baby food. Brew your own coffee. Throw zero food away. Start a vegetable garden. Refill plastic water bottles from your water filter. Find a car pool buddy. Share a subscription to periodicals with a friend or neighbor. Fix up your house to increase sales value. Learn how to comparison-shop. Build a grocery and rice stockpile. Cut out services you don’t really need. Take public transportation or ride a bike instead of driving the car. Switch from daily Internet mobile phone service to monthly payment plan, from incandescent to energyefficient LED light bulbs, from electric to gas water heaters and from PLN’s monthly payment plan to their prepaid meter service plan. Budget emergency lighting: Your usual rechargeable e me rg e n c y l i g h t invariably quit working within a year, especially the worthless ones made in China, yet they are expensive on Bali (Rp200,000 to Rp400,000). Even Philipp’s emergency lights don’t have a good track record. The one exception is the small, expensive Energizer emergency lamp but it costs around Rp300,000 (Model RC 110). Butterfly gas lanterns, bought at toko kompor in Denpasar, are the lowest cost lighting option in case of power outages. In Bali, they cost Rp500,000 (in Java, only around Rp300,000), but they are sometimes difficult to find. Very economical to operate because they run on a small gas tank (elpiji tabung kecil) which costs Rp120,000 for the tank and only Rp15,000 to refill. These powerful lanterns are so bright that they can light up the whole interior of a house and they will last through three whole nights of darkness from dusk to dawn. Toko of the Month: Matahari’s archcompetitor, Robinson’s in downtown Denpasar ( Jl. Sudirman 2, tel. 0361-234-894, open 10 am-10 pm) is very popular with Indonesians, but it also has some great buys for bargainhunting expats. The three-floor department, offering high, medium and low quality clothes, is not a tourist shopping destination, thus the prices are local. Big on ladies fashion, sexy lingerie, teens and pre-teens, mother and children’s’ clothing, beach ware, contemporary men’s clothing (2nd floor) and aisles of batik. Huge selection of jeans from Carvil (Rp200,000) to Louis Jeans which cost as little as Rp50,000 (the material alone would set you back this much if you had them made). Well-stocked and reasonably-priced food and household supermarket on first floor. No food court but a MacDonald’s is next door and an inexpensive Fun Zone (the machines actually work!) on the 2nd floor to keep the kids busy. Discount tables in front are filled with loss-leaders at staggeringly cheap prices, but also mid-range to high-end brands that they’re trying to push. Best economy Sanur eateries: Chinese-style Warung Pojok (on Jl. Bypass at corner of Jl. Danau Tondano) and hole-inthe-wall Ziro on Jl. Bypass (not far from Café Moka) are both clean, have great service and offer basic nasi goreng and kolobak (sweet and sour fried pork) at prices ranging from

Rp10,000 up to Rp20,00 for a seafood dish. On Jl. Danau Buyan the Chinese resto Citra, located among a string of ruko including a Circle K and Moena Fruits, sells a tasty nasi goreng for Rp10,000 and babi kecap (slices of pork cooked in sweet soy sauce) for only Rp15,000. Warung Seafood KKN on Jl. Bypass Ngurah Rai Sanur serves great seafood. Warung Dong ‘Oman, smack in the middle of Jl. Pantai Sindhu (No. 7), offers a very reasonable nasi goreng, mie goreng and the likes. Warung Little Bird, Jl. Danau Tamblingan (next to BII Maybank Bank), has great food, especially their sandwiches and hummingbird cake (to die for) at the usual tourist strip prices of Rp30,000 to Rp50,000 per item. Competent Ubud health care: Toya Medika Clinic, Jl. Raya Pengosekan (between ARMA and the gas station) in Ubud, tel. 0361 -978-078/7468151, provides h i g h q u a l i t y, a f f o r d a b l e emergency services to the expat and local communities 24 hours a day with four doctors and nurses on standby. This private clinic also offers a first responder service with paramedics trained to deal with heart attacks, strokes, traumatic falls and rescue from river banks and other difficult areas. They even do house calls, and will send an ambulance equipped with heart monitor, defibrillator, liquid suction, fracture stabilization equipment, KED and oxygen to your house. The clinic has a sliding scale of fees for locals, tourists, expats and people with insurance. Compared to the other clinics in the Ubud area, Toya Medika Clinic’s prices are quite reasonable for KITAS holders. They speak English and are used to dealing with expats. B a l i ’s a m a z i n g r a m pumps: Pumping water can be handled very efficiently and reliably with a gravity-fed hydraulic ram pump (also called a water ram) which takes water from a nearby river, creek, spring or other flowing water source without the need for electricity. The water first flows through a supply pipe to a collection barrel, then through a drive pipe that carries the water to the pump with the force of a battering ram. The water then travels through delivery pipes to water storage tanks placed in and around a property or village. All you need is the pump, a storage tank and a PVC plastic piping system. These simple pumps, which are particularly suited to communities situated in hilly, junglelike terrain, are inexpensively and easily built and maintained with local materials and labor. In use in more than 70 villages across Bali, sometimes as a backup water system or for providing water for cattle, gardens or lily ponds. The technology makes it possible to pump water more than 5 times higher than the initial drop of water. Since a ram pump is capable of pumping up to 10000 liters of water in one hour, they have to be turned off most of the time. Plentiful free information about ram pumps can be found on the Internet, for example from the following websites: http://atlaspub.20m.com/rampg.htm, http://www.hydratelife.org/?p=124. Bargain flour: Non-rice flours are the ultimate bargain now. Driven by its rising middle class, Indonesians are shifting away from rice towards foods made from flour. Locally produced tepung terigu (white wheat flour) such as Kompas brand costs only Rp6000 per kilo in the market or warung, Rp12,000 per kilo in plastic bags in supermarkets (in the USA, wheat flour is $4 per pound now). Sold below market price, imported flour is so cheap in fact that the government has started imposing duties to protect domestic flourmills. Best wheat brands are Segitiga Biru (Rp10,700 per kilo) and Cakra Kembar (Rp11,000 per kilo). Whole wheat flour (tepung gandum) is Rp20,000 in supermarkets like Tiara Grosir. At these prices, it’s puzzling why bakeries on Bali charge a preposterous Rp20,000Rp40,000 for a loaf of bread! Instead bake your own bread,

which is easier than you think and can even be done in a medium-sized toaster oven. Note: The low protein general bread flour available in Indonesia is not suited for making pizza. Junk or treasure? How do you know that Balinese/Indonesian statue, painting or textile – or anything else for that matter – that you bought for Rp200,000 isn’t worth Rp50 million? There are no “real” appraisers in Bali, though there are people who consider themselves to be one but are actually dealers who carry some baggage. Appraisers belonging to professional organizations like the International Society of Appraisers (isa-appraisers. org) charge an hourly rate as high as $200-$400 depending on their reputation and location. Make sure your appraiser has some experience in Indonesian or at least South East Asian arts. Many western appraisers don’t have a real grip on South East Asian arts, and tend to be biased towards Chinese or Japanese art. It’s far cheaper to use online valuations that offer estimates by professional appraisers and other experts in areas as far afield as coins, books, postage stamps, Asian antiques and historical memorabilia. Even cheaper are WorthPoint (worthpoint.com), What It’s Worth to You (wiw2u. com) and Value My Stuff (valuemystuff.com/us) which charge minimums of $10-$30 to evaluate a single piece.

Search BaliEats for good value: You can have a bad value meal that costs Rp10,000 and a good value meal that costs Rp1 million. Restaurants on the BaliEats website are listed by cuisine. First select the type of food you want within a given area (for example Sanur - vegetarian) or just the cuisine (seafood), which will show restaurants serving that type of cuisine in all areas. The Price Range shows the price category applying to that restaurant, i.e. Very Cheap, Cheap, Moderate, Expensive or Very Expensive. This means that some cuisine groupings at that particular restaurant are in that category. For most restaurants it’s difficult to generalize about good value except for single ethnic cuisine restaurants (such as Russian). On the site a restaurant’s daytime menu (Cafe Style) and their Vegetarian and Indonesian offerings will probably qualify for the Cheap category (Rp200,000 or less for two) or even Very Cheap (Rp100,000 for two), yet the same restaurant may also offer more expensive imported steaks, meats, seafood and other cuisines that fall into the Moderate or Expensive category. In summary, there are some very cheap restaurants in Bali and there are many others that overall are not necessarily cheap but where you can eat cheaply if you are selective with the menu. Great Value Plasma TV: The November issue of Consumer Reports rates very highly LG’s 42-inch 42PA4500 plasma TV as a “Best Buy for under $500,” which has recently come on the market in Bali for under Rp5 million. This set is a very good choice if you’re looking for a basic TV with excellent high-definition picture quality, unlimited viewing angle, high quality sound and very little motion blur in action scenes. Though its screen has a 720-pixel instead of 1080 pixels resolution found on many plasmas, at the screen size of 42-inches – appropriate for even a medium large room - only viewers with eagle-eye 20/20 vision would ever notice the difference. Check Electronic City in Tuban, and the Bali Electronic Center, Jl. Teuku Umar 180 in Denpasar.

May the holidays refresh your spirit and bring you new inspiration and happiness! ********************** January is a month that continues in holiday mode, despite the rains, it’s the perfect time to settle down with a good book or two? Visit Ganesha Bookstore for the following books to enjoy RAFFLES AND THE BRITISH INVASION OF JAVA by Tim Hannigan In this new book, author and journalist Tim Hannigan questions the heroic image of Thomas Stamford Raffles that has long been held in South East Asia. Hannigan presents evidence that Raffles crushed dissent, ordered the looting of palaces and even incited a massacre - behaviour that does not sit at all well with the widely accepted portrait of him as a visionary and a liberal. Tim challenges the accounts of Raffles’ role in the cultural appreciation of Java such as the claim that Raffles translated important Javanese literature. According to Hannigan, Raffles “could not even speak colloquial Javanese....let alone read, understand and translate the archaic literary form of the language”. Raffles did not ‘discover’ the thousand year old ruins of Borobudur, according to Hannigan, and of Raffles’ two volume ‘History of Java’ - it’s simply a grand exercise in sanctioned plagiarism”. THE PAINTER OF LOST SOULS by Michael Vatikiotis A fast-paced, intensely emotional drama of Indonesian life high & low, set against the tumultuous backdrop of the reformation era, after the fall of Suharto in 1999. The Painter of Lost Souls is the story of Silo, a brilliantly gifted artist who leaves his home in a poor village in Central Java while still in his teens to make his name & his fortune in the royal city of Jogjakarta. Vatikiotis tells a suspenseful tale that weaves together a fascinating inside view of the art boom in Indonesia. THE JUNGLE SCHOOL by Butet Manurung The Orang Rimba (People of the Forest) are nomadic tribes who live in the rain forests of Sumatra. Slowly the outside world is catching up with these people. Butet Manurung shares her journal she kept during her first year in the jungle as an anthropologist through to her development as an educator and activist. She tells of her adventures with stinging bees & prowling bears, with biting ants & motorboats, but it is her relationship with the Orang Rimba that transforms her from an outsider to a trusted teacher within this fragile community. Butet is determined to bring literacy to these indigenous people to better equip them to face the onslaught of the outside world.

group for HIV/AIDS Children at Risk in the community http://www.facebook.com/pages/HIV-Kids-Bali.

These children greatly benefit from nutritional assistance and regular supplies of baby formula for infants. Latogen is a simple formula, easy to digest and inexpensive and supplemental milk for the toddlers such as Pediasure. At this time all struggling children over 1 year old (about 120 of them) require 1 tin of Pediasure per month. At approx. Rp 200,000 per tin that works out to Rp24 million per month. We are currently nowhere near our target and have to send many of the children away empty handed at their weekly HIV medication and control clinic. So, as you can see the supplemental milk would be of enormous assistance to the little ones!! We are happy to receive either cash or the milk as we understand many organisations prefer to donate goods rather than money.

Currently BCF sponsor 550 children on scholarships, in communities for education & support projects from primary, high to university where there are now 20 students.

YAYASAN SEHATI ANAK is a support charity

This is a group that urgently requires financial assistance to purchase much needed baby formula. I am sure there are many of you that could assist with their request as every little bit of money helps. Many may know that HIV mothers cannot breast feed their infants and in many cases the mothers themselves are either very ill or have passed away due to the disease. (this information has been taken from their current Newsletter). Confirmed positive children have increased dramatically since this time last year with approx.110 affected children, to this year with 160 confirmed affected and as many again that have been exposed and not yet showing up as positive on their tests.

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

A New Year, a New Start Whenever a new year begins we are filled with a renewed sense of hope that all will be better this year. We make our New Year’s resolutions with solid intentions of losing weight, exercising more, taking that trip around the world we’ve always dreamed of or following our passion to do and be whatever we truly desire. But as the year progresses, many people find that they have allowed their resolutions to slip away; they have become distant dreams that seem unreachable. What if I told you that there is a whole different possibility? That we can choose in 10 second increments to do and be whatever we wish. It really is that simple! I decided to start consciously living my life this way last year. I was demanding more for myself and my life, because I felt that there were so many possibilities for having a truly amazing life that I wasn’t always generating. One day I was on a Skype call with a woman who runs a center in Bangkok that I was planning to visit this month to offer my healing services and teach a few workshops. The trip had been planned a few months ago and I had already bought a roundtrip ticket to Bangkok. Even so, there was this vague feeling that something just didn’t feel right about going to work at the center in Bangkok. I even got a burning sensation right between my shoulders which is a common warning signal that occurs for me if I’m not honoring myself or off track in some way. Well this spot was on fire! After I got off the call I walked into the kitchen and thought to myself, “Michele, there’s something about this whole situation that just doesn’t feel right. If you go, you will regret it.” In those 10 seconds an idea flashed through my mind that I could go to India instead. In that instant, I felt shivers throughout my whole body – a clear confirmation for me that this time I was in alignment with my higher self. Within a few minutes I discovered that I could use my ticket to Bangkok and just fly out to Delhi from there. I managed to book a return flight from Bangkok to Delhi for just under $300USD. If I had booked direct from Denpasar it would have cost me around $1,200USD. Everything just fell into place with such ease, that I wondered why I hadn’t thought of going to India before? My willingness to choose in 10 seconds opened up this amazing possibility that I never imagined would be possible. I didn’t go into conclusion and try to rationalize the impracticalities of making a spur of the moment decision, nor did I judge myself for changing my mind and canceling my plans to go to Bangkok. When we can be in a place of openness and allowance of whatever is occurring in our lives, that’s when the magic really happens!

Another example of a 10 second decision I made on the eve of writing this column, was to post a BARS class in Delhi for the time I’ll be there. It hadn’t even occurred to me to offer any classes during my trip in India, but suddenly last night the idea flashed in my head and I thought, “Why not?” About 45 minutes later I got an email from a woman in Delhi saying that she wanted to take my BARS class. I felt like a school girl filled with such joy. Living in 10 second increments was so much fun! I could perceive that I was actually generating my life in ways that I would have previously put off or totally ignored. The key here is to be willing to get out of judgment about any choices we make or are considering. As soon as we let our logical mind get in the way, it will usually talk us out of living the amazing life that is totally possible for all of us. I’m not saying to go totally insane and sell your home, quit your job and relationship today, but then again, if this choice would allow you to have all of you and be truly happy, then maybe that’s exactly what you need to do? So all of you who think you’ll break your New Year’s resolutions and just continue surviving instead of thriving, I challenge you to start living your life in 10 second increments and see what you can create. As we move into 2013 so many shifts are occurring, asking for us to step into our full potency and expand our awareness. Please be the change that you so want to for this world. All of us are remarkable beings who can make a huge contribution to the planet, but many just don’t realize this.

“Now Sal, now Marylou, I want both of you to do as I’m doing, disemburden yourselves of all that clothes—now what is the sense of clothes? Now that’s what I’m sayin—and sun your pretty bellies with me. Come on!” We were driving west into the sun; it fell in through the windshield. “Open your belly as we drive into it.” Marylou complied; unfuddyduddied, so did I. we sat in the front seat, all three. Marylou took out cold cream and applied it for kicks. Every now and then a big truck zoomed by; the driver in the high cab caught a glimpse of a golden beauty sitting naked with two men: you could see them swerve a moment as they vanished in the rear view window.”

Manifestations of ON THE ROAD by Uma Anyar

The movie They said it couldn’t be done, because the book has no actual plot. Many readers felt it shouldn’t be done, as it is as much about language— ‘spontaneous poetics’—as it is about story. And for 55 years it wasn’t done, not from a lack of effort by noteable filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola, who acquired the movie rights in 1979, enlisted Michael Herr and Barry Gifford, then dropped them and tried to write the screenplay with his son, Roman. Coppola envisioned On The Road as a black and white 16 mm film. In 1995 he held auditions with renowned Beat Poet Allen Ginsburg in attendance. The project fell through. “I tried to write a script, but I never knew how to do it. It’s hard — it’s a period piece. It’s very important that it be period. Anything involving period costs a lot of money,” he said. But the most poignant incident of that film project saga took place early on in 1957 when Kerouac sent Marlon Brando a letter suggesting Brando play Dean Moriarty and he, Kerouac, play Sal Paradise. Kerouac wrote how he imagined the film “to be shot with the camera on the front seat of the car showing the road (day and night) unwinding into the windshield, as Dean and Sal yak.” That kind of filmic experimentation sounds like something Andy Warhol was yet to try. Sadly, the idea may have been ahead of its time, as Brando never answered Kerouac’s letter. It’s a shame as it sounds like a film I would have enjoyed watching. Listening-in-style conversation films can be great—think My Dinner With Andre. After seeing The Motorcycle Diaries, F.F.Coppola asked the Brazilian director Walter Salles if he wanted to direct On the Road. Salles was a logical choice, as he made the South American coming of age road movie, based on the diaries of Ernesto “Che” Guevara. Walter Salles said he was drawn to Kerouac’s novel because, it is about people “trying to break into a society that’s impermeable” and that he wanted “to deal with a generation that collides with its society.” Now, for better or worse, it is done. On the Road was screened on May 23 at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. Jose Rivera wrote over 20 drafts of the screenplay. He dared to tackle Kerouac’s language, which is used effectively in voice-overs, throughout the film. At the start the narrator Sal Paradise lays it out. “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles.” Toward the end Rivera relied more on Kerouac’s original draft rather than the edited, cleaned up version published by Viking. This is evident in the movie where Marylou (played by Kristen Steward) gives Sal and Dean simultaneous hand-jobs while all three sit in the front seat grinning and naked while barreling along the hot open road. In the book, the scene is coy and cute.

Salles and Rivera’s preparation for filming included reading everything by Kerouac, traveling his routes and interviewing the still-living women who were the girlfriends, wives and friends of the now iconic ‘Beats’. That research process was filmed and is a documentary, ‘Searching for On The Road’. I am curious about this side film, as the roads are now highways heavily peppered by hamburger franchises that seem to be taking over the whole world not just the US. This made me wonder, what is the 21st century version of On the Road? One thing for certain, it is no longer about just the open road as it is about traveling the world and sampling other cultures. Today’s On-the-road generation arrive in Bali and pass through Ubud on their way to Thailand, Vietnam, Burma and beyond. I had a nice chat with two of them recently, at a Balinese baby ceremony in Bangli. Their thrills were focused on personal growth rather than on rule breaking through drugs and hedonistic sex. That may partly be because the Beats and the Hippies got that rebellion out of the way in the sixties and seventies when breaking with restrictive, racist and sexist traditions was the priority. On the Road is a visually delicious movie to watch. It is a period piece that slides smoothly on the wave of current fifties/ sixties nostalgia productions started by Mathew Weiner’s Mad Men TV series, when people smoked like chimneys, drove gas guzzling cars, threw trash out car windows, drank copiously and never even heard of safety belts or recycling. I especially enjoyed watching Elizabeth Moss (Mad Men’s Peggy Olsen) portray Galatea Dunkel, the woman whom Ed Dunkel marries because she says she won’t lend money to anyone who is not family. “So marry her!” Dean tells Ed. They need gas money to complete the trip. Galatea is left at a friend’s house in Tucson, Arizona while Ed and Dean drive on to New York to get Sal. What is most astonishing is that this wasn’t fiction. For all the rebellious and unconventional behavior the Beat guys were complete cads and sexists who were more entranced with themselves and each other than with any of the women they claimed to love. This disparity is palpable in the 2012 film mainly because the Women’s revolution has brought a more egalitarian consciousness to both sexes as well as a more psychological approach to understanding behavior. If you are interested what Jack Kerouac’s girlfriend from the 1950’s thought of Jack and his pals read Joyce Johnson’s, Minor Characters: A Beat Memoir.

Today we would call Dean Moriarty a narcissist with a manic compulsive disorder. People didn’t think that way in the late 1940’s when Kerouac was writing On the Road. The book On the Road, is a memoir masquerading as a novel or what some call a ‘factual’ fiction based on fact and experience. In essence it is a love letter to Neal Cassady (who Dean Moriarty was based on) as much as it was about hitchhiking and driving across America in the late 1940’s and early fifties. The manuscript The book’s appeal and power was in the way Kerouac reinvented language, like it was jazz wrapped in everyday words that tap-danced their way across a page. Kerouac typed the manuscript on a 120 foot roll of thin typing paper over a three week stretch while in a creative frenzy of Benzedrineinduced stream-of-consciousness prose splashed out without breaks or paragraphs or any of the formal writing conventions. This infuses Sal’s narrative with intensity, urgency and life, raw and dirty and pure, all at the same time.

UBUD UBUD RESOLUTIONS New Year resolutions and activities abound in Ubud. It’s a great place to make a firm commitment for personal change. How about trying yoga, getting back into a fitness regime, taking up salsa or samba, braving karaoke or attending a life drawing class? Or even committing to work a couple of hours a day on your Bali holiday, as you promised yourself before you left home. Some will even strike out boldly and begin to learn the basics of bahasa Indonesia. Such a simple step, but astonishingly there are many who don’t even attempt it, living here for what’s an insultingly rude amount of time without even learning some basics. Great beginners courses and discussion group classes at Cinta Bahasa. W: www.cintabahasa.com. FINDING YOUR FLOW Linda Madani, respected yoga teacher from Intuitive Flow in Penestanan, says a useful place to start in 2013 is to consider how balanced your life was in 2012. Have you been able to commit sufficient energy to both work and personal life? Do you have special memories of quality time spent with friends and family? Linda says yogic science speaks of three important attributes. Sattva brings balance, goodness and hence inner peace. Tamas is lethargy or inactivity when life seems dark or stuck in a rut. Rajas is passion, action and dynamic motion. She says yoga is popular because of its underlying principles of harmony and balance in life, and yet she sees many yogic practitioners taking even the healthy lifestyle to an extreme. Too many juice fasts lol. Linda says too much of anything can be bad; the key is in knowing where to draw the line. This month, we have the assistance of the goddess of knowledge, Saraswati, to help us think things through. January 12 is the Hindu holy day dedicated to Saraswati – a perfect day to consider the past year and determine where to focus in this one. www.intuitiveflow. com.

Cudamani art director Emiko Susilo says that the tour ’s producer, Arts Midwest, had prepared host organisations (theatres, schools, community groups, churches and a children’s home) with information about Balinese culture and music. Large displays of photos, children’s writing and drawings prepared for the visit enhanced many venues. “Instead of driving into a theater, tech-ing in a black box, performing and leaving, in each community we were greeting warmly by people who seemed to be waiting for their long lost relatives ... it was amazing.” The tour began in Hill City in South Dakota, a powerful sacred place for the Lakota Siouz people - who shared their dances with the Balinese group - and included North Dakota, Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Chicago Cultural Center. Emiko said it was a delight for the welltravelled Balinese troupe that, instead of playing to strangers, they often had many friends in the audience by the time they performed. W: www.cudamani.org.

HIV/AIDS testing and treatment clinic in Ubud. Funded by a grant through Rotary Club Bali Ubud Sunset, the free and confidential clinic opens soon at Toya Clinic, Ubud’s excellent 24/ 7 medical clinic on Jl Pengoskan. With more than 1% of pregnant women on the island testing positive for HIV, Bali Peduli’s 2013 focus is on women and children at risk in Bali. Bridges Restaurant, by the Campuhan Bridge, supports the program with an art exhibition entitled Evolution by Balinese artist I Ketut Karyana. The exhibition, open for viewing and purchase until March 23, will contribute a percentage of sales to the new clinic. Exhibition: http://bridgesbali.com/karyana. html. Clinic: www.balipeduli.org.

SAMBA BUT NO SWING YET? Congratulations to Jazz Café; first salsa classes and now we can try ‘samba no pe’ and other Brazil dance rhythm Fridays 5-6pm, so they’ve got their South American nights covered. Though, given that the main focus of the 16-year-old joint is jazz and blues, many of us are hoping they’ll also find a way to offer classes in rock or swing or jive in 2013. In the meantime, you can warm up your vocal chords with any song the house band knows on Thursday nights - or bring your own lyrics, it’s really more of an “Open Mike” night.

In the Pink Again There was a pleasant little soiree just before Christmas, at the plush new Marriott property The Stones at Legian, in favour of the worthwhile Bali Pink Ribbon cause. General manager Peter Brampton and his crew put on a great show for the crowd. Everything was pink: the complimentary mocktails and even many of the canapés, and certainly the staff. We managed to catch up with Gaye Warren, originator of the Bali Pink Ribbon Walks – this year’s is on April 28; put it in your diaries – for a quick briefing on how things are going with their plans for a breast cancer advisory service for Balinese women. She tells us: “After nearly four years of fundraising, thanks to the dedication of my Pink Team, I am delighted that we have raised enough funds to open our breast cancer support centre in Jl. Dewi Sri, off Sunset Road in Kuta, to be called Pink Ribbon House. It will be open to all those affected by breast cancer and their families, both Balinese and expatriate. Our medical advisers will endeavour to give free monthly seminars on women’s health at the centre. We shall also be offering therapeutic courses and counselling by volunteers including breast cancer survivors. “All being well, we hope to open when the centre is more or less equipped by the end of January. However, we are still in urgent need of office equipment, up to date computers, etc. We shall also be planning a future fund raiser sometime in 2013 for a second-hand minibus to provide transportation to the centre for women from outside Denpasar.” They’re looking for an experienced office manager to run the new centre and take on some of their workload. And all this is in addition to the new breast cancer screening facility at Prima Medika Hospital in Denpasar, in which Pink Ribbon has been a major player. Gaye, who is herself a breast cancer survivor, has had a gruelling time lately. During her lengthy absence in the UK in 2012 the redoubtable Kathryn Bruce held the fort in her place. Gaye says of Kathryn: “I couldn’t possibly manage without her.” The Stones (one of Marriott’s upmarket Autograph Collection) opened late last year. It’s a great property.

Missing Link

Wayan Sutarga, says only 36 of 1218 separate JCI standards of service rate a fail at the hospital and 24 are nonmedical in nature. He says therefore that it can be said that Sanglah General Hospital is “almost excellent.” Unfortunately that’s somewhat similar to hanging out a plaque above your office, as some Indians used to do in the old days, proclaiming oneself as B.A. (Oxon) (Failed). JCI will be back in three months. Dr Sutarga and his team need to be ready for excellence then.

Governor Pastika has taken pains recently to reveal his salary and benefits. They are not excessive. He gets Rp 8,598,200 in take-home pay a month. He disclosed his emoluments, and those of his deputy, following a report published recently by the Indonesian Forum for Budget Transparency (FITRA), which set out salary levels among various provincial and regional heads in Indonesia. On the face of it, it seems they got something a little wrong. It may be that the monthly office expenses got confused with salaries, since FITRA said Pastika was taking home Rp 176,660,994 a month.

Independent bookseller in Bali since 1986

Local newspaper NusaBali also reported the FITRA survey as indicating that the regent and vice regent of Badung were among Indonesia’s best-paid regional officials, receiving monthly salaries of Rp 129,596,905 and Rp 122,876,905 respectively. Those fi gures are probably wrong too. But Badung is certainly Bali’s wealthiest district. Many refer to it, not without reason, by another name: Rip-Off Central.

Extensive range of New, Used, Rare and Out of Print Books. Used Books returnable for 50% refund. Good books at good prices.

In the Way While the regent of Badung is busy collecting money from developers, he might like to spare a thought for the seaweed farmers of Nusa Dua whose 30-year-old industry is just about dead. The farmers want the government to change the regulations to make it easier for farmers to remain viable producers in areas such as Geger Beach, where the massive Mulia development has delivered the coup de grace to the little people. Seaweed farmers can no longer dry their seaweed on the beach but must take it inland, reducing production (and incomes). They were promised jobs with hotels in the area but many, unqualified for such work, have not been employed. Today, only 30 families still farm seaweed at Nusa Dua. There used to be 100. Their situation would make an interesting study for delegates at the 2013 International Seaweed Symposium, the 21st and the first hosted by Indonesia. (We love irony here at the Diary.) Sixty countries are down to attend and delegates are set to discuss the latest research and industry conditions in the seaweed world.

Renewed air links are a boon. When Garuda dropped the ball – and Brisbane and Darwin – some years ago after it discovered to its horror that the corporations that owned its aircraft actually would like lease payments to be made, it did itself and the Australian connection immense damage. It had been flying to Darwin from Bali for 18 years. AirAsia took up the route but discontinued it because it couldn’t make it pay. That’s the commercial reality and AirAsia is (properly) ruthless in that regard. If it doesn’t make commercial sense, it won’t do it. Bali-Phuket was junked for the same reason, as were the Kuala LumpurEurope routes. The Qantas low-cost carrier Jetstar flies Bali-Darwin with services that originate from or fly on to other Australian cities, picking up payload as a result. Garuda has announced plans to fly Jakarta-Bali-Brisbane from later this year.

We ordered, though with difficulty. This was because all the staff appeared to hold master’s degrees in eye-contact avoidance. They also seemed not to understand their own language. We had to ask for roti to go with the pre-pizza salad, but we only got it after the happy fellow we were trying to order with had a brainwave and said, “You want bread!” When we left, it was still raining kucings and anjings. But that was OK; we made use of an umbrella provided for diners who might otherwise get drenched. At the parking area, however, the attendant was determinedly sheltering from the ambient inclemency. He showed no interest in waving us out of the car park with the usual combination of magic wand, whistle and shouts of “terus”. Further, it was abundantly clear that he had no intention of getting himself wet in an effort to retrieve his employer’s umbrella. So to make the point, your Diarist trudged through the rain after the Distaff was safely sheltered in the car, to return it to the idle little gent. (“Gent” was not the actual word that was upon your Diarist’s lips, sotto voce, but the Bali Advertiser has rules that proscribe profanity.)

Sanglah General Hospital, Bali’s leading public hospital, will have to try again to win formally recognisable international accreditation. A year-long effort to obtain certification from the Joint Commission International (JCI) did not meet with success, since Sanglah failed on several significant tests: quality of the building, the hospital’s ability to control infection and the fit-out of bathroom facilities. JCI, which has been operating as a global standard-testing organisation since 1994 and is represented in more than 90 countries, sets rigorous standards of clinical care and managerial functions in acute care hospitals. It provides international accreditation, education and advisory services. Sanglah’s chief director, Dr

Not that Rich

It is to be hoped that Garuda will make it back to Darwin, as forecast, now it is apparently no longer just the notional airline. Proposals to resume the service from Bali to Australia’s “northern capital” this year have surfaced following a visit to Jakarta by Northern Territory Chief Minister Terry Mills, who took office last year following an election that saw the long-ruling Labor Party tossed into opposition. The north Australia connection is important to Bali and the eastern archipelago, and of course to Indonesia as a whole. Darwin implicitly understands the realities of living in the tropics, which most Australians do not. The city – it’s very small: 128,100 people on 2011 figures – is well serviced and makes a useful study centre for many Indonesian purposes; not least for storm drain technology that can deal properly with tropical intensity rain. The new government in Darwin has said it wants to continue and to expand the scope of the lifesaving connection between Royal Darwin Hospital and Sanglah in Denpasar (so see next item). This was an important and far-seeing initiative of the Territory’s former Labor government. We will look with interest at performance versus promise on that front.

Um, Yes We dined on the evening of New Year’s Day at Trattoria near Padang Padang on the Bukit’s Labuan Sait coast. The menu’s great – there’s a lovely Japanese selection too – and the ambience captures the locality and its culture while managing to blend in the origins of the Italian style of informal dining. It was raining heavily on the Bukit that evening and because the front restaurant was full – outside dining being off – we were directed to the other dining area, just a few steps away across a rainy terrace. A delightfully lissom and well appointed young woman with a lovely smile and an umbrella took us there.

This Sporting Life

We wish all Bali Advertiser readers a Happy New Year and take a look at the upcoming events in 2013. 1st Bali ParaGames –Access Bali The Yayasan Damai Olahraga Bali/Bali Sports Foundation (BSF), a registered Indonesian charity, proudly announced that the first annual disabled games will be held in Denpasar, Bali from Thursday 11 to Sunday 14 July 2013. BSF wants the Bali ParaGames to become an annual event and has embarked upon an initial four year plan to grow the Bali Paragames in terms of increasing the number of competitors, introducing new sports for the disabled in Bali and also raise awareness of the issues that confront those with a disability and to highlight abilities and opportunities for the disabled in all aspects of society. BSF believes that sport can positively change the lives of the disabled. It is because the Bali ParaGames wants to broaden understanding and acceptance of people with disablilities throughout society that BSF have themed the games as ‘Access Bali’. BSF hopes that over the coming years all services sectors in Bali, such as tourism, retailing, education and government, will awaken to the need and obligation to provide reasonable and equality of access to all disabled Balinese (and visitors to Bali). BSF believes that sport is a vehicle to bring about this change. BSF asks all - from expatriate, to tourist, to local - to think about what you can do to provide access to the disabled in Bali (and beyond). It really is the case that ‘from little things big things grow’. Please join them in their campaign for equality through sport. For the inaugural games there will be seven (7) events. By 2017 the Bali Paragames plans to feature eleven (11) sports, some of which are open to abled body competitors. 1. Swimming 2. Blind Soccer Blind soccer is open to disabled and able body competitors. Each team has six players, with the goal keeper being sighted. Able body competitors can complete provided they wear a mask to cover their eyes. 3. Badmitton-standing and wheelchair Able body competitors can compete provided they play sitting in a wheel chair. 4. Chess 5. Power lifting 6. Table tennis - sitting and standing. Able body competitors can compete provided they play sitting in a wheel chair. 7. Athletics BSF will use the broad categories of disability for sport currently used in Bali, namely:

ParaGames Ambassadors and will help spread BSF’s vision leading up to the games.This vision includes supporting the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Article 30 of the Convention states:

C/E/G-18 April 12

Participation in cultural life, recreation, leisure and sport With a view to enabling persons with disabilities to participate on an equal basis with others in recreational, leisure and sporting activities, States Parties shall take appropriate measures: • To encourage and promote the participation, to the fullest extent possible, of persons with disabilities in mainstream sporting activities at all levels; • To ensure that persons with disabilities have an opportunity to organize, develop and participate in disability-specific sporting and recreational activities and, to this end, encourage the provision, on an equal basis with others, of appropriate instruction, training and resources; • To ensure that persons with disabilities have access to sporting, recreational and tourism venues; • To ensure that children with disabilities have equal access with other children to participation in play, recreation and leisure and sporting activities, including those activities in the school system; • To ensure that persons with disabilities have access to services from those involved in the organization of recreational, tourism, leisure and sporting activities.”( One can see full text of the Convention at http://www. un.org/disabilities/convention/conventionfull.shtml)

C/E/G-09 Jan. 13

BSF Founder & CEO Rodney Holt observed “The dearth of opportunities for athletes with disabilities in Indonesia was highlighted recently at the London Paralympics. Indonesia sent 4 competitors, by contrast, Malaysia sent 22 competitors (population of approximately 29 million) and Thailand sent 50 competitors (population of approximately 67 million). Thus Malaysia had 1 competitor for each 1.3 million population, Thailand has 1 competitor for each 1.34 million population, while Indonesia had 1 competitor for 61 million population. At the 2010 Asian Para Games Indonesia ranked 14th on the medal table, winning only one gold medal and 11 medals in total. By comparison Malaysia ranked 6th with 45 medals and Thailand ranked 5th with 95 medals. On this statistical basis Indonesia has a long way to go to promote athletes with disabilities competing on the international stage. BSF believe that staging the Bali Paragames can have a local, national and international impact, and open a range of opportunities for the disabled through sport.” Final word from Bali ParaGames Ambassador I Nengah Widiarsih commenting in the Jakarta Post in November 9, 2012 “Paralympians don’t attract the same attention as other athletes,” she said. “It shouldn’t be so. Nobody asks to be disabled. We train just as hard to achieve excellence on top of having a handicap.”

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) It was a hot Indian Summer’s day in northern California and I was doing an emotionally and physically challenging job - clearing out an old life held in storage for too many years. After a long day I returned to Jerry and Judy’s house where I was staying. The table was set, a crisp white wine poured, and this refreshing salad placed on the table. The meal and their friendship nurtured both my body and soul. I have adapted the recipe bit for Bali ingredients but I know Judy wouldn’t mind.

Judy’s Salvation Salad Serves 5 to 6 Ingredients for the Salad - 1 cup perfectly ripe mango, cubed - 1 cup cucumber, skinned, seeded and thinly sliced - 1 cup cubed avocado - 2 cups purple and white cabbage, thinly sliced and broken into shreds (don’t use a grater or the shreds will come out too small) - 1/2 cup coriander leaves, chopped - 11/2 cup cooked prawns or smoked chicken breast, cubed - 1/4 cup fried shallots

By studying at Mekar Bhuana, you are supporting our documentation and reconstruction projects *For first 10 students enrolled. NC/E/I-18 April 12

Ingredients for the Dressing: - 2 lemons juiced - 3 limes, juiced - 1/2 Tbl. garlic powder (I use ‘garlic bread seasoning’ - buy at Tiara Dewata) - 2 tsp. salt Directions for the Dressing: In a small bowl or jar put lemon and lime juice, garlic power and salt. Beat with a fork or if using a jar put the lid on securely and shake until well mixed. Set aside. Directions for the Salad: Put the mango pieces, cucumber slices, avocado, cabbages, and the coriander leaves in a large salad bowl. Toss gently. Add the dressing, shrimp or chicken and most of the fried shallots and again toss gently. When ready to serve sprinkle with the remaining fried shallots. Note: When Judy served this she had crisp corn tortillas for us to pile the salad on so the dish became tostadas. ¡Buen provecho!

Restaurant Review

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

Thai street food! Baan Bua has replaced what was Warung Mie at The Four Seasons, Jimbaran Bay, with a complete renovation. A communal table for 20 or so stretches across in front of the open kitchen for those who like this style of dining, one that I detest but some people do seem to like it. However there are also normal small tables both on the covered terrace and in the garden forecourt. It is located 200 metres to the right of the lobby at The Four Seasons Resort. Thai street food but processed via a modern hygienic kitchen, with the flavours only slightly toned down to reflect the taste of North America. Sadly understandable for an International 5 star resort, but in this case enough flavour remains to make it interesting. The serves are small, encouraging the ordering of a number to share, thus enjoying a variety of tastes. The starters are real Thai street food, the snacks you can enjoy any hour of the day wandering around Bangkok. Peak Gai Thord is fried chicken wings, you can see them piled up on the many stainless steel and aluminum stands along Silom any day of the week. However I am sure that is much more hygienic eating them here. Larb Moo is an Isaan dish [north-eastern Thailand] of minced pork in a slightly sour salad. Yum Nua Yang is on many Bali menus, but is rarely close to the original. Translated here as Spicy Grilled Beef Salad it is thin strips of warm marinated beef tossed with long thin slices of fresh cold cucumber, bamboo shoots, crushed peanuts and a slight touch of chilli. Baan Bua just about gets it right. Kuey Tiew Lord is an import from China as are many of today’s Thai dishes [most of which the Thai’s have greatly improved on] just a vegetarian noodle dish but presented in rolls with cashew nuts and sweet chilli sauce for dipping. Goong Sarong is crispy Shrimps wrapped in egg noodles, a Chinese style plum sauce for dipping, very good. There are two very famous Thai soups and both are on the menu here. Tom Yum Goong is the spicy prawn soup, hot and sour, whilst the Tom Kha Gai is an ambrosial chicken soup with galangal in coconut milk, with roasted chilli jam,

a new twist. The former is the best known but the latter is one of my favourite soups. Massaman Nua is one of the great Thai curries, this one from Thailand’s muslim south – braised short ribs of beef in this case but often done with chicken. Massaman shocks most first tryers expecting all Thai curries to be fiery, which they are not. Massaman is best described as luscious. Gaeng Pad Ped Yang is one of Thailand’s most recognizable dishes, a Red Curry with BBQ Duck and fresh tropical fruits. Gaeng Pha Gai is about as hot as it gets at Baan Bua. What they call a Jungle Style Curry with Chicken and Torch Ginger is mild but the flavors are well balanced. Pad Kapraow Moo is grandmother’s favourite in Thailand when visited by offspring. The standard greeting of Kin Khao or ‘have you taken rice’ is always followed by the preparation and presentation of this dish regardless of the answer! Minced pork pan fried with fresh basil, often with deep fried basil leaves sprinkled on top. An old favourite, done very well here. Seafood begins with Pla Nueng Manoaw, Barramundi Fillet that has been steamed and is served with chili and lime sauce. Pad Chayote is wok fried Chayote with garlic and chili and Pad Thai needs no introduction, the famous Thai noodle dish, wok-fried with shrimps, cashew nuts and tamarind sauce.

QUICK REVIEW Restaurant Address

: Baan Bua : Four Seasons Resort, Jimbaran Bay. Telephone : 701.010 Open : Dinners only from 6.00 p.m. Non-Smoking Area : Yes Smoking Area : Yes Parking : Secure, in resort. Price : Rp. 1,400,000 for two [+ drinks] Credit Cards : All major cards. Food : Thai Wine : Medium list. Service : Fast. Atmosphere : Cosy. Overall : Street food but top level.

Desserts include Tub Tim Grob, crisp water chestnuts in sweet coconut milk and crushed ice, Por Pia Gloi are banana spring rolls with coconut ice cream. Buan Tua Dum - Black Bean Simmered In Sweet Coconut Milk with Pandanus Leaf essence. Kaow Niew Mamueng is another famous Thai dish, sticky rice with fresh mango fruit and sesame. Apart from the Thai menu, the main reason for visiting Baan Bua, there are two other small menus. The strangely named Menu for Young Adults just offers a standard variety of local Indonesian dishes and the Children’s Menu [restricted to those Under 8 years of age!] offers mini plates of non spicy food. All in all the food is good, tasty, and served in one of Bali’s most pleasant locations, and a big improvement over the previous noodle café.

09 January - 23 January, 2013

Update Eternal is the street front restaurant at the luxury villa complex, Ametis. Located on Jln. Pantai Batu Bolong, Canggu, Eternal is, unusual for such a complex, in that it serves high quality Indonesian cuisine. Executive Chef Nyoman Maleachi was for many years at the famous PJ’s at Four Seasons Jimbaran, and it shows in the excellent attention to detail at Eternal. I often judge restaurants by the little things, ordering very basic dishes, the ones that are often prepared by the underlings, and therefore show the overall kitchen quality. On a recent visit to Eternal I tried their Crab Spring Rolls, what could be more simple, or in many cases boring? Indonesian Lumpia is far too often wrapped in a tough tasteless casing. Not so at Eternal! The packed filling, with just the right taste of crab meat, is encased in a thin crisp wrap. On the side is a duo of sauces, combined with a swirl, the taste of mango predominating, and so good I had to drink the remainder. My favourite mains here include Opor Ayam Bakar. This dish is always special when the kitchen bothers to do all the steps correctly, as they have done here. The chicken meat is first braised in coconut milk, galangal, lemongrass and dried red chilli, then lightly grilled before serving, with the liquid from the marinade then used as a sauce, the resultant chicken flesh soft and tender, rich with flavours. Rendang is from Sumatra but this version is so different from what is served in the roadside Padang warungs, the beef has been braised in spicy candlenut and tamarind, served with small cubes of potato and red beans. The prices here are amazing for this level of resort and quality of food.

Rouge finally opened last week after the gestation period of an elephant, but it was well worth the wait. On Jln. Bisma, Ubud, it is something new for Bali and very unique for Ubud. Obviously the predominant colour is rouge [red] and centre stage is a red baby grand piano. On opening night guests were treated to piano, live jazz and opera performed by an international cast. Saturday nights are planned to be live music nights.A daring venture for the back streets of Ubud but only time will tell. Serenity was due to open December in Sanur, on The ByPass in central Sanur. Their opening is now scheduled for February, although the renovation and set up seems quite complete. It appears to be a Bali welcome for this Singapore project. It will be a Spanish restaurant, and quite a large one at that. Serenity Singapore is found in Vivo City and is famous for their tapas such as Pulpo a la Gallega, grilled Spanish octopus garnished with paprika, flake salt and extra virgin olive oil on bed of potato, Huevos Estrellados con Jamon ibérico, smashed egg with ibérico, Pescado con Huevos, silver fish with egg and that humble but correctly prepared Spanish Omelette. Also offered is a variety of Paellas including of course the original Paella Valenciana (Valencia Paella) with saffron rice, chicken, Spanish chorizo, tiger prawns, squid and half shell mussels. I only hope that they will also offer Cochinillo, that incredible Spanish style suckling pig, as they do in Singapore. Bebek Tepi Sawah has long been established in Tegas, Ubud. They have now opened an outlet in Jln Raya Tuban. No doubt with an eye for the constant flow of domestic traffic to this area. It is found upstairs in a specialty 8 restaurant complex, with off road parking. The menu is the same incredibly basic one as in Ubud. Top of the list is that Crispy Duck of Ubud or you can have it grilled if you prefer. Fish is Gurami, sliced and stir-fried with a sweet and sour sauce. Chicken can be stir-fried in a mushroom sauce or BBQ’d. There are Grilled Pork Ribs and a few local specials. Then there is Special Tempura for the vegetarians and Ayam Asad Goreng, smoked chicken pan-fried with water spinach and sambal.

Warong Miyabi is located in the same restaurant complex but downstairs to the left. Basic Indonesian, a touch of Korean [spicy kim chee soup with pasta] and many Japanese dishes. Tsukune or what they call chicken cakes, Beef Enoki Rolls [beef rolled around enoki mushrooms, with teriyaki and spicy mayonnaise], many Ramen noodle variations, sashimi and a big range of sushi rolls.

Balique is an enormous wantilan, street front [but no parking] on one side, open to gardens on the other, on Jln Uluwatu, Jimbaran. What was once hidden inside Villa Balquisse is now an impressive café/restaurant. Start with a small Mezze Plate [tomato kefta, eggplant caviar and hummus] or Roasted Beetroot [with feta, walnuts and rucola all tossed in a sherry-dijon vinaigrette]. Many pasta and sandwiches [Goat Cheese Foccacia with basil pesto, olive tapenade, roasted red peppers, salad and fries] and Burgers [Cajun spiced chicken fried in a beer batter] and a selection of tapas. Tan’s Bistro is located opposite the Bali Animal Welfare Centre [BARC] on the ridge above the small valley between Lod Tundah and Pengosekan. A cute café fit out, half inside half outside in the pleasant garden. The menu is quite amazing for 2013. Back in the 80’s the English spelling on Bali menu was considered funny but now it just show a lack of ‘attention to detail’ and I usually find that it then applies across the board. I quote; Spring Rools with tauro sauce, Mains can be had with Potato Weges, Fren Fries, or Mes Potato. The small dog outside was kept in a cage not much bigger than himself, barking non-stop and no wonder, hardly good animal welfare?

Alternative Voice

ParacelsusAsia

Is the New Medicine in Time for You? The World is a much healthier and safer place today than it’s ever been. It may not feel like it, but it is and, what’s more, life is about to get even better. Or at least it could, if we’re smart, says ParacelsusAsia. More of us live longer and healthier lives, free from violence, pestilence and famine than at any time in World history. For that to continue all that is required of us is to exercise the individual and collective wisdom to look out for ourselves so we can be around to enjoy what life on Earth and the fruits of our inventive minds have in store for us.

Collective ‘smarts’ Let’s start with the collective. Despite the fact that we retain the means to destroy the world with nuclear weapons, we have not actually done so – yet. If nuclear terrorism remains a potential threat it is not a planet-killer in the way an all-out nuclear war would be. We now live in a world that is proportionately less violent than any time in the 170,000 years or so that mankind has walked the Earth. Could it be we are actually evolving? It’s too soon to say. Of course we can still pollute and cook the planet to the extent that life on Earth, if it survives, returns to being nasty, brutish and short for all but the most fortunate of us. That remains a worrying possibility, but for the moment at least there is hope we can avoid or take action to prevent it. Again, it’s too soon to say. A second great achievement is that we all live much longer now and not just in the rich countries. Life expectancy worldwide has grown dramatically since 1970 from 61.2 to 73.3 for women and 56.4 to 67.5 for men in 2010. In some poorer countries life expectancy improved as much as 20% in the last 30years. This dramatic increase in lifespan coincides with such fundamentals as the availability of clean water, falls in levels of malnutrition and infectious diseases, such as malaria and tuberculosis, and most particularly the drop in conditions affecting mothers and young children, such as measles, respiratory infections, diarrhea, etc. Even HIV deaths have been contained and are now falling. For this we have to thank the UN and various other international bodies and public health programs like the Millennium Development Goals launched in 2000 to reduce deaths from such causes by 50% to 75% by 2015. By 2010 we had achieved a 13% reduction. We still have a long way to go but still, a 20% reduction by 2015 is a big step in the right direction. Despite such significant, albeit qualified progress, there remain two major caveats to bear in mind. While we are making progress in the fight against infectious disease there remains a huge amount to do and we can’t afford to let up now, particularly in the face of drug-resistant strains of infection and possible pandemic. A fundamental demographic change also has to be faced as the world’s population lives long enough to develop the chronic non-infectious conditions that afflict the developed world - the cancers, heart failure, diabetes, which they are now suffer in worrying numbers. Second, if we are to lead long and healthy lives what’s required goes way beyond the strictly medical, involving questions of public health, government and international co-operation, that run the entire range of environmental and socio-political issues. And yet, in the past 30 years there has been a strong, and I maintain mean-spirited and ultimately foolish, movement to roll back the remarkable achievements of public health that has served us so well since the 1860s. In view of the challenges, but much more to the point, the stunning opportunities that lie ahead of us, choosing life in a gated community behind razor wire in a Green Zone someplace seems crazy.

Call to Action…. Individually, once again as with the collective, all that’s needed is the intelligence to look after ourselves, exercising sufficient self-restraint in our life-style choices so we don’t succumb to the chronic and degenerative diseases that afflict us as we age. Easier said than done, I know, but we are now almost at the stage when increasing numbers of us who are not genetically programmed for a life-threatening disease, who exercise, eat wisely and do not over-indulge in self-destructive habits, can expect to live to 120 years old and still enjoy the experience, retaining marbles and mobility before succumbing to a short final illness. Now, unless you are under 30 and by conviction if not definition indestructible, that is a prospect that entices even if one succumbs aged 90, surely? All we need do is exercise some self-restraint and believe there’s a point in doing so. And, if the will is weak or malfunctioning genes kick-in, all is most definitely not lost because modern high-tech medicine is increasingly coming up with the answers to help us overcome chronic disease and, best of all, they are starting to come on stream. For some of us it is now a case of staying alive long enough to take advantage of what’s in the modern medicine chest. We’re talking here of the new diagnostics, personal gene sequencing with personalized treatments and medication, stem cell therapies, new delivery systems and nano medical technology and lots more in the pipeline. All of which increasingly allow us to identify, prevent and treat the chronic conditions that debilitate and kill us.

C/He/I-09 Jan 13

That broadly is the opportunity open to us. The big question however, is to what extent will this promise of a better life be open to us all and not just for the rich? These procedures are currently banned or restricted in most major developed countries and only available in places like Russia, Mexico, China, Brazil, the Gulf States and Thailand, often headed up by or in collaboration with top research doctors from the US, Europe and elsewhere. They are not covered by insurance and are expensive. Oversight and regulation vary widely and potential for exploitation by greedy or incompetent practitioners remains a danger. As with any fast developing new area of medicine there are risks. Increasingly however, public pressure will overcome bureaucratic caution and the new medicine will move progressively into the mainstream.

Your Project Health The project of your health and wellbeing is now an increasingly complex matter requiring direct participation on your part and sourcing reliable information is key to this, if you and your family are to make the right choices. Apart from making sensible life style decisions and informing yourself, probably the soundest decision you can make is to select a doctor who practices what is called integrative or functional medicine as your consulting partner. That is a fully qualified MD, who diagnoses and treats the body as a whole and is thus in a position to prevent as well as treat illness. Your wellbeing demands more than the treatment of symptoms via drugs and surgery or the ministrations of an alternative healthcare practitioner, however talented. Proper medical oversight is always required, with prevention as the key to good health with comprehensive diagnostics as essential to achieving this. In columns to come this correspondent aims to take a firmly consumerist look at both the big and the small questions that affect our wellbeing, in the firm belief that a level playing field is in the interests of all. Feel free to pitch in.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

Setting a New Year’s Resolution and Sticking to it! How many times have you set a goal and not kept it? Whether you promise to start exercising, give up smoking or even clean the house, the good-intentions last a few weeks and then fall by the wayside and we go back to our old habits. The thing is, achieving a goal is really easy if you know how. So here are some sure-fire ways to help you tick those New Year’s resolutions off your list! Be SPECIFIC Write down your New Year’s resolutions on a piece of paper and either stick it to your notice board or fridge or keep it in your handbag. That way if you start to lose your motivation you can refer back to your list and re-build that excitement. Choose about 10 goals to start with and be really specific about what you want to achieve. Never use words such as “some”, “a little bit”, or “more”. If you want to lose eight kg, specify that number. If you want to save $200 a month, be exact. Your brain can help you accomplish almost anything if it knows precisely what you’re aiming for. Keep it SIMPLE Make sure each point outlines one resolution. Don’t lump two or three things into the one task because you could be setting yourself an impossible challenge. Not only will it make that goal harder to complete but it will also make it look harder. Achieving your goals has everything to do with self-belief and motivation, so don’t make things harder for yourself than necessary. You can however, choose New Year’s resolutions that accomplish several things at once, such as running a 10 kilometer race. This will almost certainly help you feel great, lose weight, strengthen your heart, increase your energy, and meet new friends. If you design your goals to strategically impact as many areas of your life as possible, you’ll have more reasons to reach them! Choose SIGNIFICANT resolutions Set targets that are worth achieving! No one can muster the enthusiasm, hard work and courage needed to reach a goal if they don’t really care about it. Reachable goals are ones you really want. They will change your life and enhance your health or wealth. They should make you want to get up in the morning and embrace the day.

your resolutions so they can support you. If your goal is to exercise or lose weight, try joining a team sport, taking classes at the gym, or running with a friend — it’s so much easier to push yourself when around others. Then once you achieve one of your resolutions, share your elation with the people who have helped you get there. Celebrating your achievements is the best way to give you the motivation you need to carry on with those goals you’ve not yet knocked over. C/He/I-14 Dec 11

Use AFFIRMATION Habits live in your sub-conscious mind and the sub-conscious mind is a bit like the hard drive of your computer. To make change in your life the files in your hard drive need to be updated and any negative files need to be deleted and replaced with positive files. The best way to do this is through hypnosis however simple affirmation can also have a powerful effect. For example if you want to give up smoking create an affirmation such as “I am a non-smoker now and I will be a non-smoker for the rest of my life”. Repeat this to yourself five times, and do it several times a day. (Great for killing time in traffic jams!). START TODAY ! You only get one life and one chance to do all the things you want to. If you follow this plan there’s no way you can’t be well on your way to achieving your goals by the end of January. So stop making excuses and remember to keep your New Year’s resolutions specific, simple and significant. Be strategic and have a plan and share your achievements with others. It’s easy, you can do it! ….A word on giving up smoking and weight loss. If you want to do BOTH tackle them one at the time and start by ditching the cigarettes. Due to changes in your body when you initially become a non-smoker you may gain a little weight which can be disheartening if you are trying to lose weight. Once the cigarettes are gone, then say goodbye to the extra kilos.

Have a STRATEGY To reach your New Year’s resolutions, you’ll need a plan. For each point, set a timeline of what you need to do to achieve the final outcome and how long it should take to do each thing. Be realistic and give yourself enough time. Your goals should be just out of reach, but not out of sight!

Diary by Mr. Robet

Flight During its descent an airplane looses its engines and goes into a steep dive. The pilot manages to bring the airplane out of this dive, and glides it to a crash landing in a paddock. Of the 102 passengers onboard the lives of 96 are saved, and the pilot is declared a hero. Yet, as the internal investigation into the crash commences, some disturbing secrets about the pilot’s lifestyle are to be revealed. This brilliant movie is directed by Robert Zemeckis, and Denzel Washington is just fantastic as the pilot with something serious to hide. Still, the movie is not really all that concerned with the dangers of airplanes, and, is more worried about the dangers of the people flying them.

the entire township. Joshua Marston’s movie shows much potential, but, he takes so much time creating mood and atmosphere that you have to force yourself to keep on watching his movie until its very bitter end.

Trouble with the Curve A man who has been a baseball scout all of his working life is approaching retirement, however, his eyesight is failing, and, for his final season of scouting, his daughter accompanies him to help spot new rookies. As they attend baseball game after baseball game, there are some longstanding issues between them which they also have to resolve. This movie will have most appeal for Americans who are baseball fanatics, for the rest of us, brought up on cricket, a lot of the subtleties will just sail over our heads. Anyway, it’s an entertaining movie which maintains interest. Although this is a Malpaso Production, Clint Eastwood doesn’t direct. He takes it easy; presenting what has become his usual performance of a grouchy old man. Amy Adams gives him good support, even if she could be just a little bit too young for the role.

Resident Evil: Retribution This is another movie which I have no idea what is going on. It probably would have helped if I had watched some of the other movies in the ‘Resident Evil’ series, but, I didn’t. A lot of slaughter happens as a few remaining humans try to save a world overtaken by zombies. The best I can say is that Milla Jovovich looks fantastic, in a full black leather body suit.

Alex Cross Both Tyler Perry and Edward Burns are highly successful independent screenwriters, producers, directors and actors, so, it’s an interesting concept from director Rob Cohen to put them together in a fairly standard crime action movie. Tyler and Edward are policemen investigating the work of a gruesome psychopath, however, Tyler Perry, being Tyler Perry, has a certain screen image to protect, so, he plays the ‘good’ cop. All of the dirty work is left to Edward Burns. Even so, they make quite a good team. This is one of the better action movies which are currently clogging up the DVD shelves. Blind Man The mutilated body of a woman is found in her Parisian apartment, and, a French policeman is assigned the case. His suspicions fall upon a blind piano tuner, however, as it turns out, this blind man has highly placed connections, and the cop is told to more or less drop the case. This gripping thriller comes from an idea and script by French film-maker Luc Besson, but, he gives one of his lackeys, Xavier Palud, the job of directing. Even so, the movie has ‘Luc Besson’ written all over it. A word of warning: the English subtitles are not all that helpful, but, being a Besson movie, who really needs subtitles? Taken 2 Speaking of Luc Besson, here we go again with another movie he writes and produces but doesn’t bother to direct. Olivier Megaton is given that task. In Besson’s first ‘Taken’ Liam Neeson played a former CIA agent. He had to rescue his daughter from some Albanian human traffickers. This time the Albanians are back, and, they’re after Liam’s entire family. English subtitles are not necessary in this movie. Why would you want to watch it anyway? The Forgiveness of Blood This film is by Joshua Marston, the director of the extraordinary movie ‘Maria Full of Grace’ (2003). His latest movie is set in an unnamed country created after the fall of Russian communism. The ownership of a parcel of land is under question. One family claims that it is theirs but it was stolen from them by the State. Another family claims the land is theirs as it was given to them by the State. Their feud is to take on epic proportions, and, it eventually divides

Cloud Atlas The Wachowski Brothers direct this extremely pretentious movie, and I have no idea what it’s all about. It seems to continually harp on about the evils of the past reoccurring in the future. Six loosely interconnected stories, from the past and the future, attempt to depict this concept. Adding to the overall confusion, the same famous actors play different roles in all of the stories.

10 Years Some adults go to a school reunion and find that they haven’t changed at all. The Baytown Outlaws A woman hires some outlaws to kill her husband and recover her stolen son. House at the End of the Street A mother and daughter get friendly with the psychopath who lives next door. Backwards An ambitious girl misses out on her chance to join an Olympic rowing team.

Mr. Robet’s Best Buys Flight During its descent an airplane looses its engines and goes into a steep dive. Hope Springs A couple married for over thirty years attend marriage guidance counseling. Liz & Dick Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton have an affair while filming in Rome. The Words A writer finds a manuscript in a briefcase he bought from an antique shop. Trouble with the Curve A man and his daughter resolve problems as they scout for baseball rookies. The Sapphires Four aborigine girls compete in a talent quest in an outback Australian pub. Alex Cross Two policemen investigate the work of an extremely gruesome psychopath. Blind Man The body of a woman is found and a French policeman is assigned the case. Skyfall A stolen computer-chip contains the secret identities of all of Britain’s spies. Argo During the Iranian Revolution the American Embassy in Tehran is stormed.

PRAISE FOR SANGLAH HOSPITAL By Shari

Ten years ago on a warm clear Saturday night I was at home with my best friend playing Scrabble. Around eleven o’clock we heard a loud explosion that shook my house. We wondered what it was but didn’t think more about it till we went and looked out the window and were surprised to see that Kuta was on fire! A few minutes later the phone rang, a friend calling in a panic asking if two good friends had gone to Sari Club. There had been a bomb! The history of Bali changed in that moment. The news on TV showed scenes from Sanglah Hospital with people in shock offering help to victims lying on beds in hallways. The hospital was ill-equipped to handle the large volume of victims, never in its history had so many victims arrived in one night. They needed people to give blood, bring medical supplies, clothing, towels, soap which my friend and I gathered and took to the hospital offering what help we could. It was the first time I ever entered Sanglah, in fact it was the first time I had been in a hospital in South East Asia. It was a far cry from the hospitals of Canada. Yet the medical staff at Sanglah did their best to cope with this tragedy. One of the worst problems they faced was the lack of facilities for burn victims, which many of the patients had sustained from the bombing. Many in the community of Bali rallied to offer whatever help they could. Ten years later I had reason to go to Sanglah again, but for personal reasons this time and was overwhelmed at how professional and efficient the staff was. I was working on a story on horse riding in Bali, and was introduced to a horse named Parantos who I was told couldn’t be trusted to go to the beach because of his fear of waves. The “horse whisperer” in me volunteered to help this lovely horse that I had taken a liking to. I grew up on horses and had taught my own horse to overcome his fear of waves many years ago. I rode Parantos for awhile to get used to one another before taking him to the beach. When we arrived there were small waves and he was fine on the beach. The following week I returned, however, when we arrived at the beach it was windy and the waves were quite large. The horse seemed nervous so I decided I should get down and lead him along the water’s edge. We slowly walked in the water, stroking and speaking softly to him to calm him. I was more worried about him stepping on my bare feet. Suddenly he spooked and bolted pulling me off my feet. I landed face in the sand and realized instantly that my shoulder was dislocated. A jolt of pain rushed through my body as I struggled to my feet. As I staggered towards my horror stricken friend on the beach Parantos came to me and stopped, as if to say he was sorry for hurting me. I took hold of the reins with my good hand and held him until the manager came to retrieve him. My friend came running to me in shock. “I need a doctor” I said trying not to scream in agony. The top of my humerous bone was sticking up above the shoulder. We went to the closest clinic in Canggu where I begged the woman doctor to put my shoulder back in place. She informed me that she couldn’t do that. “But all doctors can relocate joints” I said in disbelief. She insisted I needed to go to a hospital and suggested an international Balinese hospital, which was the closest. A torturous taxi ride later, we walked inside to emergency. At the desk the staff looked up in surprise. Nobody spoke English. Was this an international hospital? Fortunately my friend is fluent in Bahasa and mine good enough to cope with the situation. They tried to get me to lie down as I was practically screaming for a pain killer by this point. But they insisted they take an x-ray first to see if I had any broken bones. I tried to convince them to give me a pain killer first but I lost that argument. This painful ordeal revealed a fracture. Only then was it that they gave me something for pain. They slid in an IV needle and hooked up a drip with a mild pain killer reducing the pain by half. I kept asking for something stronger but they refused. What they did do was come around often for the next 3 hours asking about payment. They told me it would cost 18 million rupiah plus to give me general anaesthetic for the orthopaedic

surgeon to put the shoulder back in place and requested an 8 million rupiah as a deposit. I clearly got the impression that all they cared about was money. I didn’t have that kind of money. What else was possible? After three hours of lying in severe pain the doctor arrived. Right away he suggested I go to Sanglah Hospital because it’s cheaper. He offered to call his team there and tell them I was on the way. However, I had to pay 1 million for the x-ray and the watered-down sedative they gave me before leaving. Luckily I had enough cash with me to satisfy their greed. Sanglah Shines When we arrived at Sanglah emergency, there was a gurney and attendant waiting before the car door even opened. They rushed me inside to meet two English speaking doctors who immediately came to assist me. I begged for some pain relief and they shortly returned with a small brown vial that was immediately administered. Ten minutes later the pain was gone. The doctors conferred on the best way to handle my shoulder. They were surprised when I told them a horse did this to me. They don’t get many horse accidents. I told them about my experience at the previous hospital and they chuckled knowingly. In the end they decided to lay me on my belly and tied a 5 kilo weight to my wrist. They hoped the bone would slide back into position without requiring a general anaesthetic. As I lay there a doctor came to my side periodically and gently assisted the bone into the socket. It took 20 to 30 minutes without pain or jerking for the bone to return to it to its proper place. I was impressed. Just to make sure, they sent me for an x-ray to confirm everything all was in place. As I sat there in stunned silence waiting for the test results, I was amazed at how good the service was at Sanglah. Everybody spoke English, no one talked about how much this was going to cost me. Although one of the doctors informed me earlier that if I needed to have a general anaesthetic it would cost approximately 5 or 6 million rupiah. The x-ray revealed that all was good. The doctor then bandaged my arm to my body and told me that I would need to stay bandaged for 2 weeks to hold the shoulder in place so it wouldn’t pop out again. Then he gave me a prescription for pain killers and announced I could go home. The biggest surprise was at the cashier’s counter. It was only 308.000 rupiah. Wow! What a huge difference from the other hospital! Another Knee Jerking Story In support of my experience of Sanglah being a great hospital a good friend of mine slipped on the floor in her bathroom and broke her knee. After an x-ray to confirm a ‘transverse fractured in-half patella’ she was told by the orthopaedic surgeon (who was not on duty, yet promptly arrived to meet her when called in at 9pm on a Sunday night) she would need surgery and suggested the latest ‘Tension Band Figure 8 Wire’ surgery was the best option. After a private emergency consultation with the surgeon and all x-rays her bill was just 308.000 rupiah too! Impressively, after researching this procedure she found that the technique he suggested was the latest hi-tech version for this type of break and decided to proceed with confidence to have this surgery. Her Balinese orthopaedic surgeon, Dr Wien Aryana I Gusti Ngurah, who studied orthopaedics abroad, recommended the surgery take place at Sanglah International Wing with a four day stay to recover. She was well impressed with her attentive care, pain relief management and friendly staff who were there within seconds when called. Given she was a KITAS holder, everything including the surgeon and anaesthetists fees, operating room, surgery, accommodation, daily meals and take home medications cost a little over 15 million. She did not have any medical insurance

to support this either. Her recovery has been successful, speedy and without hitches with excellent post operative care and checkups that include private consultations with the same surgeon and x-rays at a cost of approximately 250,000rupiah per visit. I met with Dr. A.A. Ngurah Jaya Kusuma, director of Medical Services and Nurses at Sanglah to get the scoop on Sanglah operations. First and foremost is “The Patient” comes first at Sanglah. Even poor people can receive free medical treatment which is subsidized by the government. Most working locals have medical insurance which provides them with a second class care. For an extra fee a VIP room is available. In the last year 2600 foreigners from 55 countries came to Sanglah for medical services. To cope with the foreigners most staff speak some English with a program of “English Only” on Saturdays for practice. Many staff also speak other languages such as French, German, Dutch and Japanese. If a patient arrives speaking a language that no one can speak a translator will be brought in. KITAS holders get a significant discount for services. If you don’t have your card with you at the time, you pay then return later with the card for a refund of the difference. Sanglah is a teaching hospital with foreign medical staff coming to teach on a regular basis. Royal Darwin Hospital in Australia is the sister of Sanglah offering assistance when needed. Here you will find all the best specialists in Bali working on a regular shift and work at other hospitals and their own practices at other times. In other words you can see the same doctor at Sanglah and pay a significantly lower fee than at one of the international hospitals. Changes in the past 10 years How has Sanglah improved in the last ten years? A 16 bed burn unit funded by Australia was built in 2003, there’s also a 10 bed intensive care unit and they now have a pain management program. The International Wing Amerta opened in 2004 and in 2006 opened two operating theatres. Amerta has 12 specialist units such as internal medicine, eye, skin, orthopaedic, gynaecology and cardiac to name a few. Here you can choose your doctor, whereas in the public sector you don’t have a choice. You get the same professional service but in better facilities. In Amerta, the 30 inpatient rooms are larger and airconditioned. You can also get general medical check-ups here, including mammograms and bone-density scans. Each year they upgrade with new modern equipment and the new Cardiac Centre will open in January 2013. If I ever get injured again (heaven forbid) I’ll certainly go straight to Sanglah Hospital.

Plans to improve your garden in the New Year

“To forget how to dig the earth and to tend the soil is to forget ourselves.” - Mahatma Gandhi In the New Year many of us are thinking about ways to improve ourselves and our garden. To stay healthy your garden needs a basic level of care, that would include a healthy diet in the form of nutrients obtained from composted soil and a balanced fertilizer, a dose of sun, fresh air, and watering when it needs it. Keeping a garden journal is a good way to keep track of everything important that needs to be done in your garden, whether it’s just a watering, pruning, fertilising routine, or something bigger such as a broad landscaping plan for the future. You can use the journal to make plans and sketch ideas for your garden, keep track of the plants that thrive and the ones that barely survive in your soil. You can list homemade pest remedies that you have discovered or natural fertilisers that work well. You can fill your journal with whatever you like, even recipes and herbal remedies you have made from your garden produce!

for shaving cream, no more shaving rash! Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) This plant has been used for thousands of years in India, China, and Indonesia, to heal wounds and treat skin conditions such as leprosy, and also to treat respiratory infections such as the common cold. It also stimulates the cells necessary for healthy skin. According to legend it has been called ‘the fountain of life’. It is said that an ancient Chinese herbalist lived for more than 200 years as a result of taking it. The leaves are thought to contain the beneficial compounds that maintain youthfulness. Gotu kola can also be used to revitalize the brain and nervous system, improving mental clarity and concentration. It has also been used to treat syphilis, hepatitis, stomach ulcers, mental fatigue, epilepsy, diarrhoea, fever, and asthma. It is also commonly used in cuisine throughout Asia.

With all that in mind having a concrete plan of action, it will be extremely beneficial in the long term. Whether you are planning for a few months, or even years ahead, by creating a garden plan you will know ahead of time what needs to be done and when, as a result the garden is less likely to get of control, necessitating a huge overhaul, resulting in more time and effort on your part. A garden journal is a useful tool. It will save you time. It helps with planning future garden changes and is a record of past successes and failures. If it all seems too overwhelming, simply make a plan for the next week. For example you could make a schedule to regularly cut the lawn, to keep it looking fresh and vigorous, or write down all your plans that you aim to achieve in the garden this year. It is much easier if you have your thoughts and ideas written down as they come to mind. Even if you don’t achieve all of your goals, you will get more done by simply having it written down than if you didn’t. A journal in its simplest form could be a list of plans laid out on a calendar with dates attached to them. You could use a diary or a notebook, even a computer file. A simple method I use is to write important information into my email and send it to myself, that way my journal is always there sitting in my inbox. I can access it wherever I may be. There is no wrong method of journal keeping, and many benefits to keeping one. Develop a style that suits your personal needs. Look online, you can easily download various types of free garden journals, or send me an email for more information.

Chamomile Long been use as a remedy for problems regarding the digestive system, anxiety and sleep. Taken as a tea or used in aromatherapy it has a soothing and calming effect. The entire herb is used to treat toothache, and other body aches. Peppermint Sometimes regarded as the world’s first medicine, placing its use as far back as ten thousand years. It is naturally high in manganese, vitamin A and vitamin C, nutrients that are essential to skin health and brain function. Peppermint tea is used to treat stomach disorders, anxiety, insomnia, fever and also inhibit bacterial growth. Sage Salvia, the Latin name for sage, means ‘healthy or healing herb’. Internally, sage is used for indigestion, flatulence, liver complaints, excessive perspiration, anxiety, depression and female sterility. Used externally for insect bites, skin, mouth and gum infections.

Improve your garden, improve your health The New Year is a time when many of us make any number of resolutions to get healthy and stay healthy. Why not kick-start your own health from your own backyard garden, or potted window sill? It can be very important to have medicinal plants around the home as you never know when you might need them. So here is a list of common plants that have the highest medicinal value and are well worth planting in and around the house. Aloe vera Have you ever suffered from sunburn? We all have, especially in Bali. How about a burn from the exhaust of a motorbike? Then you should need to know about aloe vera. The sap/ gel speeds up the healing process and reduces the risk of infections for wounds, cuts and burns. Cut open a leaf and spread the gel over the affected area. For sunburn it will have an instant soothing cooling effect, and will be absorbed rather quickly by the skin. Apply more as needed. I recommend it for use as a substitute

Garlic and Ginger Both are well known for their cleansing effect on the blood. They can be beneficial in lowering blood pressure and improving overall heart health when added to foods, or consumed as a tea. I would advise adding garlic to your food, and drinking ginger as tea. Ginger tea is also an immediate remedy for a sore throat. For further information on any of these herbs or any other garden related question please don’t hesitate to send me an email. Hope you all have a happy gardening New Year.

Bali Advertiser Interview: Robert Pern of Husqvarna Looking slick and fast, Husqvarna is making inroads, on the road, in Bali. These bikes certainly are tempting to the eye and Bali Advertiser spoke with Robert Pern to find out more about this exciting brand and how it rates against a strong competitive market. our after-sales and servicing. If any of our customers have difficulty in getting their bikes to us then we are happy to pick up and return the bike for them. B.A. How do Husqvarna bikes differ from the likes of Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha?

B.A. Robert, your bikes certainly turn heads. Can you tell us about Husqvarna’s journey into the Balinese market to date? H.V. Husqvarna Motor Indonesia first opened its doors in January 2010, and we now have eight dealerships throughout Indonesia. In our first year of trading we managed to become the ninth largest Husqvarna importer worldwide in terms of unit sales: not bad considering 57 countries currently import Husqvarna motorcycles globally. With increased sales in our second year we hope to improve our position and really put Indonesia on the map as a major player in the sports bike market. B.A. The big Japanese brands are without a doubt market leaders. Is Husqvarna planning on directly competing with the majors or are you positioning yourself to more of a niche market? H.V. Currently we are definitely a niche market. We cater mostly for the off road/dirt bike enthusiast. This could change in the future as Husqvarna plans to develop motorcycles aimed at different market segments. A good example of this is the Nuda 900R; our first bike developed just for road use, which in terms of performance and style, easily beats any bike currently available in Indonesia. B.A. Are your bikes competitive on price with the majors? H.V. Compared to other brands imported into Indonesia, absolutely. Bikes manufactured locally or within the Asean community don’t have the same import duties and this can give them a price advantage, but our customers are looking for the best quality bikes available and are happy to invest for that. B.A. Have you widespread after-sales service and servicing centres? H.V. With our current network of authorised dealerships throughout Indonesia, most of our customers across the country are able to get their bikes serviced or repaired by trained Husqvarna mechanics without having to travel too far. The location of our main showroom and service centre on Jalan Bypass offers our Bali customers easy access to

H.V. Simply put: quality. Husqvarna motorcycles are designed and built in Italy for the serious enthusiast. Throughout the model range Husqvarna combine craftsmanship and technical knowledge gained from developing world championshipwinning bikes with the very best brands on the market today – Brembo, Kayaba, Mikuni, Marzocchi, to name a few – to produce these amazing bikes. B.A. What do people buy when they purchase a Husqvarna bike? Is it prestige, reliability, European technology? H.V. I’d say all of the above. Add a whole lot of adventure and fun, and most importantly, they buy into the Husqvarna Family. B.A. Can you tell us about the different models? Are your bikes well suited to Bali’s roads? H.V. We currently stock 19 different models, from the CR50 and CR65 junior bikes, up to the Nuda 900R, and we are about to welcome the TR650 Terra into our range (it will be starring next year on TV – look for it on Indonesian Explorer). To explain all the differences between all the models would take a while, but in a nutshell our range covers off roaders and supermotos, from 125cc up to 630cc, as well as the awesome Nuda 900R. If anyone is looking for details on our range of models, our website www.husqvarna-motorindonesia.com is a great place to start.

H.V. Totally! About 90% of our customers are local. There is a fantastic off-roading community, not just in Bali but across Indonesia, which previously never had easy access to quality bikes with the after-sales and servicing back up we can offer. When Husqvarna arrived we were warmly accepted into the community. Also our Race Team has great following, and again this year we dominated the All National Championships. B.A. Do you offer accessories also? H.V. We sure do. Selling such high quality bikes, we also want to offer our customers the very best quality accessories. Our range of Husqvarna accessories include Airoh helmets, Gaerne boots, Belray oils, Progrip clothing and protection, and we’re about to launch the latest addition to our brand portfolio - One Industries. B.A. And finally Robert, where does the road lead to for Husqvarna in Bali? H.V. With the company’s drive towards breaking into new markets, Husqvarna has some very interesting new concepts in the pipeline; the Baja and Moab for example. Aimed at the everyday bike enthusiast looking for performance, prestige and style, these bikes will help us to offer an even larger range and bring new customers through the door. But right now our most exciting project is bringing Husqvarna’s parent company, BMW Motorrad, to Indonesia and making one of the world’s greatest bike brands available here for the first time. Construction on the new showroom is about to begin just along the Bypass from our current location, and once completed will house the full range of BMW Motorrad and Husqvarna Models.

‘Huskies’ love the roads in Bali! In fact, it’s the Nuda 900R that really makes the roads here an actual joy to ride on. To many folk the idea of riding a 900cc bike around Bali (in fact, it’s a tweaked BMW F800 engine) is just crazy, but the Nuda offers such fantastic agility, braking and power delivery, the rider is in complete control. To date, every customer who has tested a Nuda has bought one! B.A. Is there a unique feature with the Husqvarna brand? H.V. Husqvarna is actually one of the oldest brands in the world, the logo is derived from a gun sight which was what the company originally started making in 1685. Bike production started in 1903, so I’d say that if Husqvarna has a unique feature it is its heritage. B.A. With impressive unit sales across Indonesia, are local Balinese also embracing this new brand?

Question: I’m sure my question isn’t unique, but I have never been in a situation like this before. I’ve known and loved this guy for 9 years. We started out as a couple and ended up as friends two years later. Now we are friendlier than we maybe should be, but it is because we were each other’s first love. In recent years, I have found out that he has hit two of his girlfriends. He doesn’t deny it but doesn’t explain the situations either. His friends don’t defend him. They tell me that he was provoked. In one case, the girl purposely hit his injured leg just for spite. My problem is that we have started seeing each other. I want to know if men who hit women do it only to certain women, or if it’s a personality trait that leads them to eventually hit any woman they are with. I have never been in a relationship where a man would dare to hit me, so I have no idea about this. I need help before I get any more involved. Dr. ZZ: Men who hit women have a serious anger management problem. Regardless of the reason, hitting is never excusable. No women (and no men, for that matter) deserve to be hit by their partners for any reason. Period. It is never the victim’s fault. Once a relationship becomes abusive, it is close to impossible to turn around that dynamic within the same relationship. Men who hit are sometimes able to work on themselves in therapy and to avoid falling into the same pattern with future partners, but once an abusive pattern is established in a relationship, it creates a deep rut, a groove that is virtually impossible to alter within the same relationship dynamic. If your ex has not done any deep, inner ecological work on himself to change his abusive tendencies, it will not matter whether he involves himself next with you or with another girl. He is a batterer until he is not and, without therapy and a few workable tools, he will remain a batterer. Where the two of you are friends, the best idea may be for you to explain all this to him -- as a friend -- and to avoid getting involved romantically until he completes at least one Alternatives to Violence (ATV) workshop or something of a similar caliber. Info on ATV can be found online and at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternatives_to_Violence_ Project. Stay strong, be firm, and remain in control of yourself. This fellow is not hopeless as long as he is willing to do the work. Then, if you choose to get involved after he has been through a program, it would be smart for you to learn to recognize the warning signals of abuse; so that the two of you can commit to preventing any potential future relapses.

Question: I have a friend who has brought me to this feeling of abandonment about 14 times in the past 20 years. She is all sisterly, and then I end up not hearing from her when she finds herself a new boyfriend. Her behavior changed again recently as soon as she moved in with her present catch. I had to go to Singapore last year for a surgery, and it took her days to finally call me because she was helping him move in. Now I called her again a few days ago and have had no response back from her. She was off work for a couple of weeks recently, and we were supposed to get together because we haven’t seen each other in several months. But she didn’t call until she was back on the job, and I was too angry to answer the phone at that point. She had also sent me an email prior to the call and asked me to scan a picture I have of her and to email it to her in the form of an attachment. She was pleasant in the email though, and she did finally call. But it feels as if she doesn’t want to see me at all. She just wants to keep me on a shelf in case of future needs. I had detached and written her off, but this most recent time I called her, I was open and got rejected again. It seems as if all the hurt of the past 20 years is all bundled up in a messy package, and I am bitter. Is it best to forget her once and for all and to do myself a favor? I am not demanding and can’t understand why good friends wouldn’t see each other. I could talk to her but feel more like ignoring her at this point. Forgive or forget?

Dr. ZZ: Rather than “forgive or forget,” I would suggest “live and let live.” If you are sitting around waiting for the phone to ring, you are working way too hard at this. My advice is to sit back, stop trying so hard to control the situation, and allow your friend to get in touch for a change. When you do hear from her, be pleasant. Then, wait to hear from her again. You need to stop worrying and need to start enjoying your life. You can’t make another person live on your terms no matter how hard you try. Your job is to be the best you can, to enjoy your life, and to allow others to do as they please. If she comes through for you, enjoy it; if she doesn’t come through, you are nevertheless living your life. Either way, it’s a win-win – as long as you are willing to accept that.

Dr. ZZ has a Ph.D. in Counseling and a doctorate in Natural Healing. Drawing on a background of over thirty years as a professional therapist, she offers self-help in the areas health, relationship and personal growth.

Local News Terrorists Find New Targets, New Funds After failing to turn places like Aceh and West Nusa Tenggara into their strongholds, terrorism cells this year seem to be returning to familiar places, regaining control in former conflict zones like Ambon and Poso as well as operating in areas like Jakarta, Solo and Bali. All of those places have been attacked by terrorists. On March 17, the National Police’s counterterrorism unit, Detachment 88 (Densus 88), shot and killed five terrorists in two raids in the tourist areas of Sanur and Denpasar, Bali. The men were involved in an armed bank heist in 2010 in Medan that left one person dead, and were believed to have been plotting robberies and an attack on a popular tourist cafe, police said. The five terrorists killed during the raids were believed to be from Bandung, West Java; Makassar, South Sulawesi and Jember, East Java. The five were also believed to have been planning robberies in the Denpasar and Badung districts. Bali was the scene of two major terrorist attacks including the 2002 Bali Bombing which killed 202 people, most of whom were foreigners. But Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika said his province will always be a target. “Bali is crowded. The whole world will know if a big firecracker explodes, let alone bombs,” he said, adding that terrorists want to send the message that they exist and should not be underestimated. But with terrorism figures like Abu Bakar Bashir, Abu Tholut and Umar Patek now behind bars and the likes of Noordin M. Top and Dulmatin killed in police raids, terrorism cells seem to be leaderless and divided, with little capability and resources to carry out major attacks. The current year has seen attacks that were considered minor, by comparison, and mostly directed at police, which analysts say are perceived by terrorism groups to be the enemy of Islam. Police are also on the target list as retaliation for the killings and arrests of their leaders. An Associated Press analysis shows the number of strikes within the country has actually gone up, especially since 2010, when radical clerics called on their followers to focus on domestic targets rather than Westerners. The more recent attacks have been conducted with less expertise, and the vast majority of victims have been Indonesians. “It turns out that the terrorism problem in Indonesia is not finished yet,” said Maj. Gen. Tito Karnavian, a former counter-terrorism official. “The quality of their attacks has decreased, but the quantity has increased.” Despite lacking in striking capabilities, police discovered in June that terrorism groups might have turned to a more sophisticated method to gather funds. The finding was made after Densus 88 arrested Rizki Gunawan, who is suspected of having made Rp 8 billion ($830,000) as a result of online hacking. A Densus 88 source said that Rizki’s hacking work had funded the bombing of a church in Solo, in September. The source also said that Rizki had taken part in paramilitary training in Central Sulawesi in January and February last year under the leadership of Santoso, who is still on the run. During the bombing of several churches in 2000 and the first Bali bombing in 2002, funding came directly from international terror group Al-Qaeda. After the funding stopped, terrorism cells resorted to donations from their own members and sympathizers. But the 2002 Law on Terrorism, and later the 2010 Money Laundering Law, makes this method almost impossible, prompting many terrorism cells to conduct theft and robbery to finance their attacks. Saud said the

new funding methods were devised by Santoso, who came up with the strategy after realizing that Rizki and his protege, Cahya, were IT experts. The pair decided to hack a foreign exchange trading website. Cahya was arrested in March for financing the Solo church bombing as well as channeling money to terrorism suspect Umar Patek, who was sentenced this year to 20 years for his role in the 2002 Bali bombing. Santoso seems to be this year’s Most Wanted Terrorist, with nearly all terrorism attacks — successful and foiled — having had some form of his alleged involvement. Police said that Santoso has been recruiting and training militants in Poso, Central Sulawesi, where he is known to head a local branch of the Jemaah Ansharut Tauhid, founded by firebrand cleric Bashir and considered by the US State Department as a terrorism network Since August, Poso has been the scene of an intensive crackdown by Densus 88 seeking to root out the militant camp run by Santoso. Last month, two officers sent to track down the location of the camp were found murdered with their throats slit. During the crackdown, police made several arrests and seized large quantities of firearms, bombmaking equipment and fully assembled explosives. Police also shot and killed at least two suspected terrorists during the raids. A link to the Poso terrorist cell has come to light elsewhere in Sulawesi, with an assassination attempt on South Sulawesi Governor Syahrul Yasin Limpo in Makassar on Nov. 11. The perpetrator, identified as Awaluddin, threw a pipe bomb at the governor during a speech but it failed to detonate. He was immediately detained. South Sulawesi Police say they believe Awaluddin is part of the Poso cell due to the similarity of the bomb to those seized from the militant camp in Central Sulawesi. Last Thursday, an unknown assailant attempted to shoot the chief of police of Poso Pesisir Utara in his yard. The officer was not hit, but police have not caught the perpetrator. Rights activists have blamed the creeping religious radicalization in Poso on the authorities’ inability to adequately address long-running tension and grievances from the bloody sectarian violence that gripped the district from 1997 to 2000. During those years more than 1,000 people were killed. This year, police have also seized weapons and explosives in Ambon, Maluku, another place with a history of bloody sectarian violence. On Aug. 17, Independence Day, assailants opened fire on a police post in Solo, Central Java injuring two officers. A day later, a grenade was thrown at a different police post in the city. No one was injured in that attack, police said. Mufti Makaarim, executive director of Institute for Defense, Security and Peace Studies think tank, said a key reason for the prevalent nature of terrorism in Indonesia is the government’s failure to formulate effective measures to prevent the spread of radicalism. “A lot of former [terrorism] convicts return to terrorism, sometimes playing greater roles than before,” he said. “The state should be more involved [by] not letting [the convicts’] families be taken care of by other militants.” Mufti also called for moderate Islamic groups to tackle the spread of radicalism. But that would not be easy, terrorism expert Noor Huda Ismail said, adding that pundits have divergent views on how to combat radicalism. “We need to step back and look at what we are trying to achieve,” Huda said. “Do you want to take out the [terrorists], the network, the ideology?” “Tailor a program to tackle that with measurable results.” (December 24th 2012)

Bali Police Record a Drug Smuggling Boom in 2012 Bali Police booked a staggering increase in narcotics seized from suspected drug couriers in 2012 as the amount of confiscated contraband ballooned to more than 14 times last year’s totals, police said on Thursday (27/12).

Most were arrested by customs officers at Bali’s Ngurah Rai International Airport, she said. A handful of others were arrested at their hotels or villas while vacationing or living in Bali.

Authorities seized 341 kilograms of narcotics from alleged drug smugglers attempting to bring illicit substances into the popular tourist island. Packets of crystal methamphetamine, marijuana, cocaine and hashish accounted for the majority of the seizures, Bali Police narcotics division head Adj. Sr. Comr. Ni Made Asmiriwati said.

Among this year’s drug arrests was a 56-year-old British housewife allegedly caught with 4.7 kilograms of cocaine in her bags, a Russian national sentenced to 11 years after officers found 359 capsules of hashish in his stomach and a 45-year-old German man sentenced to one year in jail after police found 159 grams of marijuana in his Sanur residence. While the majority of Bali’s arrests involved suspected drug mules entering through Ngurah Rai International Airport, the National Police remained concerned about a suspected push to use boats to smuggle drugs into the archipelago undetected.

Last year, police only seized 23 kilograms of drugs, Asmiriwati said. Authorities pointed to Bali’s popularity as an international tourist destination as one of the reasons why drug syndicates continually attempt to bring narcotics into the island. “As long as Bali remains an attractive tourist destination, it will keep luring criminals,” Asmiriwati said. In total, 22 foreign nationals were named as drug suspects in 2012, a drop from 23 suspects booked last year, she said. Among the suspects were foreign nationals from Australia, Britain, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Russia, Spain, Thailand and the United States. “They mostly brought the narcotics from outside Indonesia, especially from other countries in Asia like Bangkok. Most of them admitted to serving as couriers,” she said.

Nationwide, the National Police handled 26,561 drug cases that resulted in the seizure of 21,000 kilograms of marijuana and 2,000 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine — two of the most common drugs sold in Indonesia, police said. Nearly 33,000 people nationwide were charged with drug-related offenses this year. Fifty-one people were sentenced to death for drug possession in 2012. Indonesia has some of the harshest drug laws in the world. (December 27th 2012)

Queensland Woman Found Dead in Bali A 33-year-old woman from Brisbane has died in Bali. Denni North, who had been living in Kuta and working in public relations, was reportedly found lying face down in a swimming pool. Managers of the Cocoon Beach Club in Kuta, where Ms North worked, remembered her as a “beautiful and vivacious” young woman. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed this morning a Queensland woman died in Bali on December 30. “Consular officials in Canberra are providing assistance to the woman’s family in Australia,” a department spokeswoman said. Indonesian authorities are investigating Ms North’s death. “It is with incredible sadness that we announce that one of our Cocoon family Denni North passed away suddenly on Sunday morning,” reads a post on the club’s Facebook page. “Our sincerest condolences go out to the family and friends of this beautiful and vivacious young woman. Denni you will be so missed by so many. RIP beautiful girl.” Foreign Affairs Minister Bob Carr has expressed his condolences to the family of Ms North. (December 30th 2013) Europe and Bali on Alert as Australian Bikies Expand Australian bikie gangs are aggressively expanding overseas and creating havoc for international authorities who fear violent inter-group conflicts and a boost in drug and arms trafficking. A memo circulated by the European law enforcement agency, Europol, said the arrival of the Rebels and the Comancheros was causing tension with established outlaw motorcycle gangs in Europe. The head of Australia’s national anti-bikie taskforce, Detective Superintendent John De Candia, said it was a ‘’big problem’’ for police at home because gangs were opening chapters in strategic locations along drug, arms and human trafficking routes. ‘’They’re not going over there to simply ride their bikes, they’re going to open up opportunities to get drugs and firearms back to Australia,’’ he said. Gangs are taking advantage of countries with lax laws and easy access to illegal drugs and firearms.This month, Fairfax Media reported that Australian bikie gangs including the Rebels and Bandidos were increasing their presence in Bali, while several others are believed to be showing more interest in the region. One senior New South Wales police officer said police were powerless to stop the spread of gangs overseas.(December 26th 2012) Bali Prosecutors Drop Death Penalty for Alleged British Drug Smuggler Prosecutors will not seek the death penalty for a 56-yearold British housewife accused of attempting to smuggle 4.7 kilograms of cocaine into Bali, the office announced on Thursday (20/12). Prosecutor Lie Putra Setiawan instead pushed for a 15-year sentence for Lindsay June Sandiford, explaining that the woman was “already elderly” and should be spared the death penalty. She also faces Rp 2 billion ($207,210) in fines or an additional six months in jail. Customs officials at Bali’s Ngurah Rai International Airport allegedly found 4.7 kilograms of cocaine lining Sandiford’s suitcases. The drugs had an estimated street value of more than Rp 23 billion, police said.Sandiford told police that a fellow British national, Julian Anthony Ponder, threatened to kill her son if she didn’t try to smuggle the cocaine through customs. She allegedly acquired the drugs in Thailand with Ponder, his wife Rachel Lisa Dougall and Paul Beales. In a separate trial, a panel of judges led by Judge John Tony Hutauruk sentenced Dougall to one year in prison, following a lenient recommendation from prosecutor Putu Astawa. The prosecution charged Dougall with failing to report a drug-related crime, explaining that investigators failed to discover any evidence that Dougall took part in planning the smuggling attempt. Her husband faces the death penalty as the alleged mastermind behind the drug smuggling scheme. Beales was sentenced to four years in jail on Wednesday for possession of 3.1 grams of hashish. Nandagopal Akkineni, an Indian national arrested in the bust, was sentenced to five years on Tuesday for possession of 279 grams of Ecstasy. Sandiford plans to take the stand in her own defense, attorney Ezra Karo Karo said. Her trial will resume on Jan. 3, Judge Amser Simanjuntak said.“If the defendant does not present a defense, the court will proceed with the reading of the verdict,” Amser said. (December 20th 2012)

The government is once again implementing measures to prevent an outbreak of bird flu in the country, following the reported outbreak of the disease in Australia, according to a senior minister. “The preventive measures were discussed during a coordination meeting with relevant ministers,” Coordinating Minister for People`s Welfare Agung Laksoso said here on Thursday (27/12). “The government will take various steps, including increased surveillance and guidance, as well as a ban on poultry imports from Australia,” he stated. Agriculture Minister Suswono, who also attended the coordination meeting, said the ban on poultry imports from Australia would be lifted after the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) declared that Australia was free from bird flu. “This time, the bird flu in Australia has been caused by a new type of virus, namely H5N1 clade 2.3.2. Previously, it was the H5N1 clade 2.1.3 virus that had caused the outbreak of the disease,” Suswono noted. “Up to now, however, there have no reports of the virus spreading from birds to human beings, like we had seen the previous time around,” Agung said. (December 27th 2012) No Plans to Execute Bali Nine Pair in 2013 The two Australians on death row in Indonesia appear to have received a one-year reprieve from facing the firing squad, despite Indonesia planning to start executions again. Of the hundreds of people on death row in Indonesia, two are members of the Australian drug trafficking group dubbed the Bali Nine. Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran were both sentenced to death for their part in the failed operation and are now in Bali’s infamous Kerobokan prison. While 133 criminals have been sentenced to death in Indonesia this year alone, delays have meant none have been executed since 2008, when three of the Bali bombers faced the firing squad. But the attorney-general’s office has now announced plans to carry out the death sentence for eight convicted criminals next year. The office has not said who those eight people will be, other than they would be people who were sentenced in 2012. That leaves Chan and Sukumaran off the list of executions for next year. Both Chan and Sukumaran have lost all judicial appeals. (December 27th 2012) Sentence Cut for Corby Simply ‘Matter of Time’ Convicted Australian drug smuggler Schapelle Corby appears to have been passed over for a remission this Christmas despite being nominated for a two-month sentence cut, but prison officials are optimistic she will be approved. Gusti Ngurah Wiratna, the chief warden of Bali’s Kerobokan Penitentiary, said on Tuesday (25/12) that his office had received no response from the Justice and Human Rights Ministry’s Directorate General of Corrections about Corby’s case. “We filed our request a long time ago, but there’s been no response,” he said. The official announcement of prisoners who were granted a remission this Christmas was made on Tuesday. Wiratna said he hoped an approval of the request would come soon, adding that a similar request for Corby filed ahead of Independence Day this year was also late. “That was for Independence Day in August, but we only got confirmation of the approval in early December,” he said. “So we’re certain that in the next few days we’ll get confirmation that she’s been approved for the Christmas remission.” Corby, who was sentenced in 2005 to 20 years in prison for attempting to smuggle 4.2 kilograms of marijuana into Bali, has already received a combined 31 months worth of sentence cuts. Earlier this year, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono granted her another five-year reduction in response to her bid for clemency. Another Australian drug smuggler, Renae

Lawrence, is also expected to be granted a two-month remission. She was also sentenced to 20 years in prison, in her case for her role as part of the “Bali Nine” gang that attempted to smuggle 8.3 kilograms of heroin into Bali. (December 27th 2012) Schoolies Blinded by Spiked Arak Cocktails in Bali A teenage girl has been blinded after drinking a tainted cocktail while on a schoolies trip to Bali.The 18-year-old is believed to be the worst affected of a number of people who have fallen seriously ill after drinking cocktails spiked with methanol. An 18-year-old boy was also temporarily blinded during a schoolies trip to Bali last month.The girl, from Sydney’s northern suburbs, went to the emergency department of Royal North Shore Hospital after returning from overseas last week.The effects of methanol poisoning can range from vomiting, headaches and gastric pain, to comas, liver failure and, in extreme cases, death. Blindness is also common - it can last a few hours or lead to permanent damage. In many cases poisoning has occurred when arrack - a local drink of coconut flower, rice and sugarcane spirit mixed with fruit juice - has methanol added. Volunteer group Red Frogs headed to Bali for the first time this year after being briefed by agencies and hospitals. Red Frogs Bali co-ordinator Paul Mergard said: “We treated and hospitalized around five schoolies for methanol poisoning and out of them there was one we had great concern for. “I would suspect that the real number is much higher,” he said. “We had some we sent to hospital who were quite sick but we probably didn’t see the worst of what was happening because we took them to hospital where they were treated.” Mr. Mergard is calling for more awareness regarding the tainted drinks, saying: “The scary thing is these kids don’t know what they are drinking. It is mixed through cocktails.” Despite being aware of numerous cases of methanol poisoning overseas, the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has provided only general warnings. Its website says “Foreigners have died or become seriously ill after consuming brand name alcohol or local spirits adulterated with harmful substances”. (December 23rd 2012)

Push to Ban Alcohol in Indonesia Indonesia will consider banning all alcoholic beverages and putting drinkers in jail for two years. The ban, which, if implemented, would decimate the night-life in tourist haven Bali, has been proposed and listed on Indonesia’s national parliamentary legislative agenda for next year. The secretary of the Bali Hotel and Restaurant association, Perry Markus, said it would be “very odd and very bad” for Bali to try to market itself as an international tourist destination if it could not offer alcohol to guests. The strict ban would be “applied nationwide within the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia”, the bill says. Those who produce alcoholic drinks would be subject to penalties of up to 10 years imprisonment and 10 billion rupiah ($1.05 million) in fines; there would be $520,000 in fines and five years in prison for those who distribute them, and two years imprisonment and a $20,800 fine for those who consume alcohol. Indonesia is a Muslim majority country, where most of the population refrains from drinking. But alcohol is freely available in nightclubs, bars and some cafes. In regions like Bali, the economy relies heavily on tourism, which includes a heaving, alcohol-fuelled night life. However, the ban is part of a heavy 2013 legislative agenda in a notoriously gridlocked and slow-moving parliament. It may never even be debated, let alone passed. In 2008 a bid by Islamic politicians to ban the bikini was over-ruled after protests from the tourist industry. The anti-alcohol law’s proponent, United Development Party MP Ahmad Kurdi Moekri, told Fairfax Media the proposal was “to safeguard the nation’s morals”. (December 20th 2012)

Nusa Penida: From Bali Starling Sanctuary to Community Development Centre

‘Every tree that can grow here is better than grass’ By Marcella Bos

Nusa Penida, only a 45 minutes boat ride away from Bali, is not well known by tourists. Most people know it from the dive sites ‘Manta point and ‘Crystal Bay.’ One of the reasons for Bayu, Balinese and director of FNFP (Friends of the National Park Foundation), to start his Bali Starling Conservation project on Penida. ‘The island is still authentic and has the perfect habitat for the Bali Starling, a local bird that is in danger of extinction. Since we started our sanctuary in 2004 the population has grown to 105’, Bayu says proudly.

years ago he worked as a volunteer for a non profit organization that rehabilitates injured, sick and orphaned animals. ‘They had more animals in the sanctuary, especially birds, then they could release into the wild. The organization needed more space and Bali was one of the options to start another rescue centre. I started to do some research for them and found out that the Bali Starling, our local bird, was endangered in the wild. They were mostly held in captivity. I knew from the beginning that I wanted to do something for this bird.’

FNPF is an Indonesian non-profit organization that has the desire to save one of the world’s most endangered species from extinction in the wild: the Bali Starling. It’s not the first time Bayu tried to save animals. ‘In 1997 we started our first rescue centre in Tanjung Puting National Park in Kalimantan, Borneo. Due to deforestation, illegal logging by companies and farming by the local communities the habitat of animals like Orang Utan, birds and sun bears started to shrink. And therefore also the number of species.’

Another project was born. After two years research into the Bali Starling Bayu concluded Nusa Penida was the best option for a sanctuary for the bird. ‘The Bali Starling is a bad flyer. They can’t fly further then 14 or 15 kilometers. Penida is too far from Bali, so the bird will stay on the island or migrate to Lembongan or Ceningan. These islands are not big so it would be easy for us to track and follow the birds, and to find the right places to release them into the wild.’

Community development With the financial support of a tour operator FNPF started a sanctuary and research centre for Orang Utan and other endangered wildlife. To u r i s t s , s o m e philanthropists and donors covered the costs for the project. ‘We learned a lot from our work in Borneo. After a few months we found out that the local community was very jealous of the Orang Utan. All the attention from tourists and the project went to the animals and not to the people. In the beginning the community was not Bayu, director of the Indonesian willing to support the Friends of the National Park work we were doing.’ A Foundation (FNPF) challenge for Bayu and Photography ICCO SEAP his team. ‘We had to involve the people more if we wanted to save and increase the habitat of the animals. From that moment we changed our strategy. We focused more on community development as part of our habitat and wildlife projects.’ FNPF managed to involve the forest people by giving training on agro-forestry, organic farming, animal conservation and environment education. ‘With this approach we showed the people that we care about their well being as much as we care about the animals. We also demonstrate how conservation can bring benefit to the local people.’ Increased livelihood The livelihood of the communities in Tanjung Puting National Park increased with the support of FNPF. ‘We developed a program for agro-forestry and ecotourism. We helped the farmers to shift from the traditional slash-and-burn farming to a mixed approach. Slash-and-burn causes complete clearance of vegetation, which causes erosion and makes the land useless for agriculture. With agro-forestry the farmers have a variety of trees or crops that deliver income over different periods of time’, Bayu explains. The tourism activity in Tanjung Puting National Park has been growing since the 1980s, but there was very little benefit for the local communities. In 2006, FNPF began a program to teach ecotourism to a group of people from one village. ‘We donated tents and cooking tools and built a camping platform close to FNPF’s reforestation area. We secured exclusive rights from the national park authority for the village to run camping tours in the park. This means the local people don’t have to compete with established tour operators. And they interact more directly with the tourists.’ Bayu really believes the integrated approach of wildlife, habitat and community makes this project of FNPF a success story. ‘It was a long breath. It took us ten years to convince the communities in the National Park, but finally they recognized the need to protect their environment. Not only because it generates income, but also because it is their obligation to protect the animals and their habitat. Now they are proud of this task.’ Rescue centre With the knowledge and experience from Borneo Bayu went back to Bali in 2002. He has since worked from his office in Ubud. Ten

Lesson learned After the research of the Bali Starling FNPF started to do research in the villages of Nusa Penida. ‘We learned our lesson in Borneo and I didn’t want to make the same mistakes. Before we started to set up the Bali Starling Sanctuary we consulted the communities. I asked them what they thought about the idea of protecting the bird, what they thought about habitat and wildlife. And more of these questions. I found out that seven villages already used a traditional Balinese village regulation to protect birds. We call it awig-awig in the Balinese language.’ This was a good starting point for FNPF. Although Bayu has a good understanding of the Balinese culture, customs and Hindu traditions it took him another two years to persuade every village on the island to introduce the awig-awig. ‘It seems to be a long time, but not if you compare it with Borneo’, Bayu laughs. ‘We really needed those years to convince the local people and to get them interested in a long term project like the Bali Starling. Rehabilitation of animals takes time and patience.’ Bali Starling When the whole island was effectively transformed into a unique, unofficial bird haven Bayu and his team of 6 people could start the Bali Starling S a n c t u a r y. ‘ S o m e colleague scientists had warned me that the Bali Starling was not able to live in a dry climate as in Nusa Penida, but I was convinced the bird would survive. And I was right. We started to introduce the Bali Starling in the sanctuary in the dry season, on purpose, and after three months we had the first generation.’ The Bali Starling lives in The Bali Starling a swarm of 15 to 20 birds Photography: ICCO SEAP and they need to get use to their wild environment step by step. ‘We have built huge cages for the birds, close to the native forest on the island, but after releasing them into the wild we lost a lot of birds. Too many natural predators in that area: fish eagle, hawk and other big birds. We removed the cage to another place. From everything we do we learn and eventually we managed to save the Bali Starling from extension. Hopefully it is possible to bring the bird back to Bali one day.’ The program has already saved the Bali Starling from extinction in the wild, but FNPF will continue to release more Bali Starlings and other endangered birds like Java Sparrows and Crested Cockatoos. ‘And we also want to work with other wildlife. At the moment we are working with seaweed farmers and villages located close to the beach to extend the community-based protection to sea turtles.’ Community behavior According to Bayu the program for conservation of the Bali Starling was so successful, because of the behavior of the communities in Nusa Penida. ‘One of the biggest threats to endangered birds in Indonesia is poaching and bird traders. This is eliminated on the whole island due to the awig-awig of all villages. They leave the birds alone and make sure the environment will not be damaged or disappear.’ In return for the island-wide community-

based protection of the bird and the habitat FNPF runs projects that benefit the local people. ‘We wanted to give something back for their commitment. Most of the program is based on our experience in Borneo, but we had to change a few things. A few examples. We sponsor children from poor families to attend school and university. We also give free English language classes, traditional dance classes and we have built a small community library. With these activities we tried to win the hearts of the communities.’

FNPF distributes 30.000 tree saplings per year to the communities of Penida, for free. The organization gets support for the deforestation program from ICCO. Photography: ICCO SEAP

But FNPF wanted to do more. When Bayu did research on Penida he also observed the livelihood and economic activities of the communities. The majority of the people are sea weed farmers or have live stock. ‘Most villagers have cows and they eat grass. For that reason a lot of trees were cut in the past. Deforestation is a big problem on this island. It has a lot of influence on the soil, which is not very fertile anyway, and its ability to retain water.’ In 2005 FNPF developed a deforestation program. ‘We know the cows are an important income source, but we also wanted to convince the farmers that we need trees on this island. Only 5 percent is covered with forest. Every tree we can plant here is better than grass. So we started a nursery.’ ICCO support From that moment FNPF distributes 30,000 tree saplings per year to the communities of Penida, for free. ‘We have been planting thousands of saplings on severely degraded government reforestation land. We also planted an additional 4,700 pioneer seedlings of different trees and vegetables on 12 hectares. Our model shows a survival rate of 70 percent and that is very good in these extreme conditions. With funding we will continue to plant more saplings each year.’ And funds are needed to continue the ambitious programs of Bayu. One of the investors of the community projects of FNPF is ICCO, an international development organization with roots in the Netherlands. ‘We are very happy with the funds of ICCO. Not a lot of organizations know us and the work we do. Maybe we don’t communicate enough or maybe they only see our work for the Bali Starling. The bird was just an entry point to reach a bigger goal: community development through agro-forestry. ICCO gives us the support, trust and opportunity to expand our program. The coming year we will distribute 61.500 saplings and 1.500 Gmelina arborea plants.’ Bayu wishes also other investors, donors and organizations can find a way to contribute to the work of FNPF. Although he hopes this doesn’t give him too much paper work. ‘Sometimes the application forms of donors are too complicated for me. I prefer donors to visit our project site. Like the team of the ICCO regional office South East Asia & Pacific in Bali. They visited Nusa Penida in September and stayed two days for team building activities. I believe ICCO got a good view of our program, the island, the communities and what is needed to continue our work for the community.’ ICCO works towards a world without poverty, injustice and exclusion. ICCO is an international development organization with roots in the Netherlands. The community program of FNPF is supported by the ICCO Regional Office South East Asia & Pacific in Denpasar.

SCHEDULE THAT Bali Wine Auction (20 January) This is the second wine auction of its kind in Bali which was started by Bill Busch and Henny Santoso of Lotus Food Distribution and supported by The St Regis Bali and the Bali Hotels Association (BHA). BHA generates and administers funds for wine education programmes for many employees in Indonesia’s hospitality industry. The programme begins with a one hour “brown-bag” blind wine tasting of 6 wines followed by an auction of 25 lots of wine and merchandise.

The Raw Food Immersion (20 - 27 January)

Tulip (Sundays)

I’ve scheduled a few of these retreats last year and due to the popularity there are more. Full immersion into raw foods is what this retreat is all about. How lucky we are to have the sweetest, ripest tropical fruits on our door step, exotic spices and an abundance of fresh vegetables at the warung whenever we need to cook. Food will be prepared freshly on a daily basis sourced from local growers. There will be yoga and meditations and trips to the Big Tree Cacao, cashew farms, hiking and other trips weather permitting. The ingredients of the week include joy, bliss, relaxation, connections to nature and your body and of course sustainable changes that add up to what is promised to be one of the best weeks of your life. Bali has to be one of the best places on the planet to eat an abundance of fresh, healthy, raw foods. Children are also welcome and under four years of age are free. Do check out the website as there is detailed information about raw foods and this retreat.

Turkish cuisine is the theme of this spacious restaurant with outdoor and indoor seating. Every Sunday they have live acoustic music with Lianto Tjahuputro to accompany the delicious food and ambience. Tulip is a gem of a restaurant and worth a visit. Do make a reservation.

Village Eco Tourism I am scheduling this village trip as the New Near sets in and we look forward to a glorious stretch ahead and what 2013 has to bring and what we can do. One question in today’s Bali climate and what we should all be asking is how can we support this beautiful island that we are blessed to live on or visit? How often do we really take the time and effort to immerse in the unique culture and environment that we live in. This organisation is all about supporting Balinese villages and this is a great opportunity to immerse in the local culture. Jaringan Ekowisata Desa (JED - village ecotourism network) was founded in 2002 and is owned by four Balinese villages with the administrative help of the Wisnu Foundation. The background to the organisation is interesting too and more information is available on their website. Mass tourism has created havoc on the island of Bali. Most profits from mass tourism on Bali go to wealthy entrepreneurs and corporations outside of Bali, leaving the Balinese to suffer from the social and environmental impact. The demands of tourism have caused serious problems to the environment and its ecosystem. Preservation of the Balinese culture is important and many outside institutions set up in Bali completely ignore the Balinese philosophies often seen in architecture and planning. Visiting a Balinese village is a great way of reconnecting with the culture and customs of this beautiful island and we all have a part to play to support and preserve the community that we live in. If you want to experience something different, have visitors or are thinking of a school trip, this is the perfect opportunity to experience village life and remind ourselves of what Bali is really all about. All funds raised support community development and environmental conservation activities. Enjoy local foods, visit a seaweed farm, enjoy the lush tropical forests, embark on a turtle release trip, join their ‘Adopt-A-Nest’ programme and enjoy a real Bali day out.

Spatial Orientation In Bali Mount Agung, the sacred direction toward God By Polly Christensen

At first glance, it would seem the Balinese live a casual life, however it is quickly noted by visitors to this island that everything has its place, and that spatial orientation is crucial for every kind of activity. Balinese believe anything below (kelod such as our feet, or south as in the ocean) carries negative connotations or evil. This carries over into their belief of the spirit world in which anything above (north or skyward) is good and anything south (below ground) is evil. Even when Balinese sleep, they orient their heads (kaja) toward the north or east. Nothing in the teachings of Balinese Hinduism requires or even mentions that it is mankind’s job to destroy evil. For Balinese, evil is a part of the whole, and good is a part of the whole. Neither can exist without the other. Instead, the life of any Balinese is devoted to maintaining equilibrium so that neither gets the upper hand. This notion of three forces, overlapping and interdependent, together constituting a whole, lies close to the centre of Hindu theology. Even the most casual tourist learns of the Hindu triad - Brahma, Wisnu, and Siwa. But this is only one of the myriad tripartite classifications that organize society on the island. This grouping by threes, or tri hita krana, governs Balinese ideology and activities as grand as cosmology, or as humble as building a compound toilet. Direction is instrumental in the West and enables us to get where we are going. However, a sense of direction means little to us. Orientation is exceedingly important to the Balinese. In Bali a direction describes a vector not just in physical space, but also in cultural, religious, and social “space”. As a result, every Balinese seems to possess a built-in sense of direction. And if for some reason, this feeling is lacking, the individual is visibly uncomfortable and disoriented. IDEAL ORIENTATION Nawa Sanga is the c o n c e p t o f cosmological orientation, a manifestation of the never-ending quest for order and h a r m o n y. N a w a Sanga delineates eight cardinal directions around the centre point of Siwa, often represented as a phallus like the fountain tower itself. The directions are dominated by mountain-sea axis and sunrise-sunset axis, symbolized by specific colours and deities according to Balinese mythology. The traditional house is divided into nine areas, whereby the Sanggah Kemulan or Pamerajan as the most sacred is located in north (kaja) -mountain direction, aling-aling or the entrance gate, as a dirtiest is located in south (kelod) -sea direction; and bale-bale or the working and sleeping places occupy the centre area surrounding Natah or Natar. There are many variations due to different geographical conditions, particularly concerning the location of mount Agung as a point of reference. Towns and villages in the southern part of the island will have the reverse orientation as compared to those in the northern part of Bali. Furthermore, mount Agung is not the sole point of reference in creating Nawa Sanga’s ideal orientation. In some mountainous villages for example, the directions are not oriented towards mount Agung but the nearest mountain, which is clearly visible. TOWARD THE MOUNTAIN The sacred mountain, Gunung Agung, stands 3,142 meters high in the eastern central part of the island of Bali. Gunung (Mount) Agung is the dwelling place of the Hindu gods. Toward the mountain is called kaja. Because Gunung Agung is in a fairly central location, kaja is a variable direction. It is north

for inhabitants of south Bali and south for those who live in north Bali. Whether north or south, it is always “up,” the sacred direction toward God. The opposite of kaja is kelod, seaward, or toward the lower elevations and away from the holy mountain. Kelod is “down,” it is seen as less sacred than kaja and even impure. The second-most sacred direction, after kaja, is kangin, “east,” the direction from which the sun rises. Kangin’s opposite to the west, kauh, is correspondingly less sacred. The eight compass directions consist of four cardinal points kaja, kangin, kelod, kauh - and their intercardinal divisions - kaja-kangin, kelodkauh, etc. To these are added the position, centre. In each of these nine directions dwells a separately named aspect of God, each aspect having its associated colour and characteristics. Sometimes the symbolism is extended to cover all three-dimensional space by adding two more directions, up and down. Once every hundred years an enormous island-wide ceremony is held to exorcise evil forces, to drive them off into the eleven directions of all space. The name of this ceremony is Eka Dasa Rudra, from the Sanskrit expression for eleven - eka dasa. ASKING FOR DIRECTIONS Bali is a small island; many of the inhabitants reside in intently packed villages of 2000 to 4000 people on the fertile southern slopes of the island. The social organization of villages is among the most unique elements of this island. It is particularly interesting in d i s c u s s i n g languages that use e g o c e n t r i c coordinates (left, right, straight, behind) versus languages that use cardinal directions - north, south, east, west. Anyone who has lived in Bali and has tried to ask directions has experienced this difference - the Balinese may not say “take a left at the light and then take your second right.” They would probably say, “Go north, and at the light, east, and then after two blocks, go north again.” For example in Seminyak kaja is NE and kelod is SW. Up in Lovina kaja is SE and kelod in north. Balinese don’t get too wrapped up in figuring out the exact compass reference and so in the south of Bali ‘kaja’ means roughly north. Since all village compounds lay on a kaja-kelod line the two other directions are called kangin and kauh, meaning where the sun rises and where the sun sets. Logically this has a problem too if you consider a place that doesn’t have kaja and kelod exactly on a N-S axis, but never mind, the Balinese stick by this tradition. COSMIC STRUCTURE AND ORGANIZATION The daily attitudes and behavior of the Balinese reflect this highly oriented, directional space. This interlocking set of horizontal and vertical orientations is a consequence of the Hindu conception of cosmic structure and organization. Man is a tiny part of the overall Hindu-Balinese universe, but he contains its structure in microcosm. Man’s body has three parts - head, body, and feet just as the universe, macrocosm, has three parts: the upper world of God and heaven, the middle world of man, and the underworld. Man is a kind of scale model of the universe, with exactly the same structure - as is the island of Bali, and each village, temple, house compound, building, and occupant on it. The interlocking, related structures and orientations produce balance, the ultimate goal of Hinduism. Unless a Balinese can orient himself properly in this universe of balance, dictated by kaja and kelod, up and down, he feels uncomfortable and ‘lost’ because he is not in harmony with his environment and the forces of good and evil

within it. His gyroscope is not set. There is nothing to guide him. THREE DIVISIONS In Bali, the cycle of life has three divisions: birth, life, and death. Everywhere one finds triple shrines, triple niches, and triple platforms of lotus leaves made of stone, brick, or wood to accommodate the Hindu triad. In fact, t h e B a l i n e s e conceptualize the entire universe, the macrocosmos, as being structured on three levels. The structure of man, the microcosmos, is divided into three parts corresponding to those of the macrocosmos. In fact, the same Sanskrit word, bhuana, is used to describe both man’s body and the universe. The former is bhuana alit, the small body, the latter bhuana agung, and the large body. Even the Balinese language reflects a division into three levels that have spatial referents. One uses low, or common Balinese when speaking to family and close friends. Medium Balinese is for strangers and people of higher caste. And high, or refined Balinese is used when speaking to high priests or when referring to sacred objects or ceremonies. This theme is evident all around the island. BODY MEASUREMENTS Not only does a Balinese home exhibit the same tripartite structure as a human being, but it also is created in accord with the organic proportions of its owner. When erecting a townscape, the design process has to acknowledge the Balinese Hindu psycho-cosmic concept as the core principle in the design, which accommodates the relationship between human (microcosm) and environment (macrocosm). Urban spatial organization reflects Balinese cultural identity. Each family compound comprises a rectangular perimeter wall and several important structures, each significant and carefully laid out. The Balinese believe that a family compound reflects the human body and the first step in building a new compound is consulting a Balinese calendar to choose a suitable day to buy the land and start work. The head of the household has to consult a master builder called an undagi who will take a selection of body measurements. These measurements are derived from ancient texts. They include measuring the distance from the tips of the middle fingers, from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger and the width of the fist with the thumb stretched out. Continuing with the body reference the kaja, or top end of the compound is considered most important and represents the head. It’s where the bale daja or ‘raised sleeping quarters’ for the head of the household is located. The family temple that is dedicated to the souls of ancestors is always located at the kaja-kangin corner facing Gunung Agung and first to see the light of day. In the centre of the compound is an open area, which represents the navel and to each side of this are two bale structures, both bales represent the arms of the body. The two structures closest to the kelod side of the compound are the paon or kitchen and the lumbung or rice storage barn. These represent the legs and feet. Outside the kelod wall are the garbage dump and the pigpen, representing the anus. And finally, the architect himself may bring the building to life when it is completed, or he may require the services of a priest if he does not know the proper prayers and procedures. The living trees that have been chopped down to make the pillars, the long grass that has been cut for the roof thatch, and other materials of construction, once assembled according to dimensions taken from a human body, are themselves brought to life, reincarnated, as a living house. Organization by threes may seem quite a strange concept to the Western visitor even though Christianity has its trinity and groupings by three. However, it’s a good idea to note that when a Balinese man tells you to go north, he might be telling you to go “toward Mount Agung” even if it’s situated to the south, east or west of where you are. Consider this to be part of your unique Bali experience. Copyright © 2013 Bali Advertiser You can read all past articles of BA Feature Article at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz
