Entertaining The Gods The ancient shadow plays of Bali By Polly Christensen

The plays are usually based on stories drawn from the Ramayana and Mahabharata Hindu epics. They communicate Bali’s history, religious and spiritual teachings, poetry, and philosophy. The characters are demigods, demons, magic men, and romantic lovers. There are many different stories passed down through generations by puppetry masters, ranging from high drama, improvisation, and slapstick comedy. The purpose of the wayang is to bless the occasion by inviting ancestral spirits to visit the location. This extremely important, popular and common form of entertainment is likely to go unnoticed by tourists, mainly because it doesn’t begin until long after dark.

LACY SILHOUETTES Recalling stories from the two Hindu epic poems, the dalang manipulates his puppets, sings and taps out signals to the orchestra. An oil lamp flickers in the darkness, lacy silhouettes dance and flutter as epic tales of rivalry and conquest are laced with classic human lessons and unrestricted wit. The lampu blencong is hung between the dalang and the puppets so the shadows show up clearly on the screen. The shadows look alive as if they are dancing on the screen because the flame of lampu blencong always flickers. A modern shadow puppeteer uses sophisticated laser lighting, which can produce light in various colours. The colour of the light and level of its brightness is usually adjusted according to the story - such as a red light with a high level of brilliance for battle scenes.

The order of entrance by his puppet characters is strictly controlled. The first puppet to enter is always a representation of a mountain or tree of life, called the Kayon or Gunagun. Demon or evil characters must always enter from the left side of the screen, supposedly coming from the demon world. There is usually a love scene and a sad scene at some point in the story. Other events include chases, magical archery, and battle. The play ends with the Kayon planted firmly in the center of the screen with the attendants Tualen and Mergdah at its side. The Gamelan plays a series of closing pieces and the Holy Water is made. THE PUPPET The Balinese wayang or puppet is strange in appearance. Its head is extremely big, the arms are excessively long and the body is remarkably thin. It is made of crafted buffalo leather mounted on a bamboo stick or thin buffalo horn handle. The handle or stick allows the puppeteer to control and manipulate the puppet during a show. The puppet is painted, usually with spray and finishing details will be added afterwards. Colours vary according to the puppet’s character and nature of the show. The puppet of Shiva is painted gold, the sacred colour of god but may also appear in different colours, according to the circumstances of the story. The making of a single puppet can take several weeks to complete and involves numerous craftsmen working in groups. Each puppet has a unique character including royal beings, gods and demons, humble citizens and super heroes. Most characters come from the epic Indian tales but there are also specific characters called Punakawan that only appear in Indonesia. These ‘clown servants’ are humorous characters, dealing with tabloid-like gossip and contemporary political affairs in a philosophical, yet humorous manner.

TRADITIONAL PUPPET THEATRE Wayang is a generic term denoting traditional theatre in Indonesia. There is no evidence that wayang existed before Hinduism was brought to Southeast Asia from India circa the first century CE. This leads to the hypothesis that the art was imported from India or China, both of which have a long tradition of shadow puppetry and theatre in general. Indigenous storytelling traditions had a profound impact on the development of the traditional puppet theatre.

will usually crowd the back of the screen as well as the front, for there is a fascination in the ‘behind the scenes’ operations of the dalang’s performance. The puppet master must narrate and speak the dialogue of the story figures with the peculiar declamation so unique to his art. Kawi is not really spoken but rather chanted and sung, and the dalang has to have a vocal range from low and course, to high and delicate. The sound of the dalang’s voice, with its nearly unintelligible twisting and elongating of the vowel sounds, his foot clapper, and the background music of the four gender are integral parts of the experience.

THE GENIUS BEHIND THE PUPPET A Dalang is a most extraordinary man. He must be physically strong and healthy; otherwise he would not be able to stand the strain. He handles the puppets with both hands, imitates their different voices, tell jokes at the right times, and even sings every now and then. In addition, he controls the musicians without anyone among the audience ever noticing. He is also a craftsman, and a puppet maker, for the dalang must be able to design, carve and paint a complete set of puppets, which can run into well over a 100. And he must be a musician, able to play the gender instrument himself and skilfully cue players during the performance. A talented dalang must know more than 100 stories and in addition have a thorough knowledge of the ancient Javanese Kawi - the language in which plays and all other important Hindu-Balinese texts are written. He must also be fluent in high, middle and low Balinese, evoking all moods, human and supernatural, including the dramatic effects, which mesmerise audiences from all generations.

ve rti

The puppets are believed to have great spiritual power, ‘brought to life’ by special ceremonies performed by the Dalang, who is the puppet master and storyteller. The dalang is a man of many talents: he must have a repertoire of hundreds of stories, play the music, have a flair for showmanship, perform the necessary sacred rituals, and also make the intricate, leather puppets.

in difficult times.

The shadow puppets, or wayang, of Bali, are known to be the most prominent Balinese theatrical expression. Far more than mere entertainment, the Wayang Kulit is an extremely important vehicle of culture, serving as carrier of myth, morality play, and a form of religious experience, rolled into one.

Kulit in Indonesian means skin or covering and wayang refers generally to the puppet. The puppets are cut out of cowhide, filigreed into the equivalent of leather lace, painted and braded with sticks. They have articulated arms and legs and sometimes, even jaws, which are supported by sticks that the dalang can manipulate. These puppets represent sacred figures, sacred themselves – they are always kept in an elevated position, and are given special offerings.

THE WAYANG PLAY Shadow plays are extremely popular, with performances given during sacred temple ceremonies, private family ceremonies, and in the villages. A typical performance can last six hours or more, often ending at daybreak. The audience, including little children sits on the ground, enthralled for the entire story. Although the play involves much lighthearted slapstick comedy, every aspect of the shadow play has mystical overtones, symbolism, and esoteric meanings. The dalang sits cross-legged on a mat with his lamp just in front of his face and a box of puppets to his left. During the performance, the puppet master can stick the puppet rods into soft wood, holding them in place, waiting in turn.

Dalang are typically men, and the profession is usually handed down from father to son. Some modern dalang families stretch back generations, although the social status associated with the position attracts many young men not from family dynasties. An apprenticeship lasts several years, and includes training in healing and meditation techniques meant to build stamina, as a typical wayang performance can last up to nine hours. The puppet masters are sometimes considered conduits between the world of gods and the world of men. Shadow puppet plays are frequently requested during periods of community turmoil or disaster. Audiences who attend a wayang performance are said to be ‘temporarily warded from harm’, and shadow puppet theatre is also believed by some to have the power to exorcise evil influences. The ability of the puppet master to discuss social and political problems through interpretation of the play is also highly respected, and dalang’s are important mediators

He always clutches a wooden hammer in the toes of his right foot in which he periodically strikes the puppet box to emphasize parts of the story or to signal the musicians. One assistant sits on each side, handing the required puppets to him and accepting those that have gone off stage. Crowds of several dozen men sit patiently on the ground, little boys in the front row. A group of boys

TINKLING MUSIC As the show is about to begin, delicate, tinkling music drifts from behind the screen. Musical accompaniment in traditional shadow puppet is usually two pairs of gender wayang (a kind of metalophone used in traditional wayang performance). The modern shadow puppet show is usually accompanied by gamelan gong, complemented by two or three female singers. In a simplified form, the wayang can be staged just about anywhere and indeed often seems to be set up in some back corner or small pavilion. I have seen these plays in private homes and next to busy roads, but most commonly inside an actual temple. In each case the puppet play is just one small part of the ceremony, a single offering among hundreds that will be prepared and presented by the villagers as a part of a religious ceremony. A typical scene may see three other gamelan groups playing at the same time while the wayang performs. The desired effect is a state of constant bustling activity, which Balinese find highly satisfying. Wayang Kulit is probably one of the oldest and most highly developed storytelling traditions in existence today. It is a custom still celebrated in Bali and hopefully will continue to be so. This play has enough sex, violence, magic and humour to keep any audience happy for several hours at a time. Go see one for yourself and enjoy!

Cystic Echinococcosis: Common, Complex Yet Ignored

C/He/I-11 July 12

Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a parasitic infection with the larval form of the dog tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus.

therefore have cystic echinococcosis, the disease develops as a slow-growing mass in the body.

It is common here in Asia so you should be aware of it. It is an infective disease that can cause quite significant lung and liver problems. It should be something to consider if you are feeling generally unwell and your doctor has been unable to find a logical explanation. This parasitic infection is preventable, and treatable—in theory at least.

The cysts found in those with cystic echinococcosis are usually filled with a clear fluid called hydatid fluid, are spherical and typically consist of one compartment and are usually only found in one area of the body.

reshape, rebalance, reform at

Patients with liver echinococcosis who are symptomatic most often present with abdominal pain or a palpable mass in the right upper quadrant. Compression of a bile duct or leakage of cyst fluid into the biliary tree may mimic recurrent gall stones, and biliary obstruction can result in jaundice.

SUNSET PILATES STUDIO

Pilates can benefit individuals wishing to: • Lengthen and strengthen muscles • Improve posture and mobility • Tone and centre the body • Align and centre the body through core stability • Help prevent Osteoporosis and Tendonitis • Aid injury rehabilitation • Improve focus and breath control

Rupture or leakage from a hydatid cyst may produce fever, pruritus, urticaria, eosinophilia, or anaphylaxis.

ve rti

Pulmonary hydatid cysts may rupture into the bronchial tree or peritoneal cavity and produce cough, chest pain, or haemoptysis (coughing up blood). The cysts can also affect the central nervous system (spaceoccupying lesions), the heart (conduction defects, pericarditis), and the pelvis (pelvic mass).

Investigation is usually be ultrasound or CT scanning of the affected parts of the body. Examination of cyst fluid (hydatid sand) reveals a typical appearance of the infection.

Clinical Signs and Symptoms Slowly growing echinococcal cysts are usually asymptomatic until their expanding size affects the function of the organ or surrounding tissues leading to symptoms.

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

AIDS 2012...Where are we now?

C/He/G-5 Sept. 12

If someone is suspected or confirmed to have HIV they will encounter discrimination and are unlikely to seek out diagnosis or treatment (“What I don’t know won’t hurt me and if I die its destiny”)

Commercial sex work is widespread in Indonesia, both male and female. There are an estimated 190,000-270,000 female sex workers, and clients of sex workers number approximately 7-10 million, with condom use estimated at less than 10%. Male sex workers also have sex with women, and sex workers are also more likely to inject drugs, and so the plot thickens. A huge number of the HIV positive population are drug users (injected). Most of these drug users are young, relatively well educated and live with their families. Surveys have shown that intravenous drug users are among the best informed and are becoming more cautious in their practice. Other less common methods of transmission are unsafe medical or dental practices, tattoo studios, acupuncture clinics. Think also about beauty salons that are using metal instruments to excise blackheads or pimples, and the common local practice or “kerok” (rubbing a coin across the skin to cause abrasion and release heat from the body). But why does this country have such a problem? The bottom line is still ignorance along with a good dose of discrimination. There is still the “it won’t happen to me” attitude even in those living in high-risk situations. Many still believe it to be a “gay’ disease, or one of those things that “foreigners have / get”.

tis er

HIV testing is now free in government hospitals and clinics. A new bylaw on HIV/AIDS imposes punishment on anyone who stigmatizes and discriminates against people with HIV/ AIDS, in order to protect those with the illness. In addition to minimizing the spread of HIV/AIDS by regulating the responsibility of the local government and the public, the bylaw is aimed at improving the quality of life of those living with the disease.

C/He/G-13 June 12

What can I do to help? Education is the key. Make an effort to educate all those around you starting at home. If you would like to educate local friends, staff etc here is an excellent link to a comprehensive fact sheet on HIV in Indonesian ttp://www. kswann.com/WhatisHIVAIDS.pdf: Or for a more simple point by point fact sheet: http://kisara.or.id/kesehatan-reproduksi/apa-itu-hiv-aids. html

Indonesia’s acceleration in the rise of HIV is due to several factors including the country’s extensive sex industry, limited testing and treatment clinics, a highly mobile population, a rapidly growing population of people who inject drugs, extensive promiscuous behavior, and the challenges created by major economic and natural crises. High levels of HIV infection are found amongst high-risk groups, such as injecting drug users, sex workers and their clients and to a lesser extent, men who have sex with men. However, local regulations often criminalize and stigmatize high-risk groups making it difficult to seek diagnosis and treatment.

The Good News? The government is opening its eyes and its wallet and is really getting proactive in addressing the HIV/AIDS situation. Retroviral medication is now free however less than 40% of HIV sufferers have access or intent to use the medication. (Note that other supportive medications such as antibiotics as well as infant formulas are NOT free).

Where can local people get advice and testing?

December the 1st was world AIDS Day – a good time to reflect on your awareness of what’s happening on this Island in regards to this global problem. With 250 million inhabitants, Indonesia is the fourth most populated country in the world and the country with the fastest growing HIV epidemic in Asia with an estimate of over 400.000 people living with HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). This number has risen sharply in recent years and is expected to more than double by 2014 if approaches to HIV prevention are not improved. Bali is one of the provinces with a rapid increase in HIV prevalence. According to the AIDS Commission (KPA) in Denpasar, the number of people living with HIV/ AIDS in Bali has increased by an alarmingly 24% during 2011 to 5.222 people, compared to 4.210 people in 2010. Alarmingly, housewives are showing a rise in HIV infection and recently it is reported that an estimated one percent of pregnant women in Bali are infected with HIV/AIDS. Sadly this will cause an increase in HIV positive children and babies, and the HIV pediatric unit in Denpasar currently treats 160 HIV children.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE DECEMBER 12 - DECEMBER 26, 2012

Last fortnight I talked about the powerful Yod aspect on the Full Moon Eclipse and now we continue with the same aspect with some variations, on the Solstice of December 21, 2012. The sextile from Pluto Capricorn to Saturn Scorpio is now exact and shoots out through Jupiter Gemini. Venus has now taken the place of the Sun in Sagittarius at the opposition point to Jupiter. On the solstice the Sun sits at 0 degrees of Capricorn and this forms a sextile (harmony aspect) to Neptune in Pisces. The Yod point Planets are sitting at 9 degrees. On May 18/19, 1989 we had a similar Yod including the same Planets but with the Pluto/Saturn signs reversed and at 14 degrees. This Finger of God, as it’s known, portends to major shifts with Jupiter the planet of change and expansion and Pluto transformation. Saturn is about control and boundaries and note that these two rule each other signs i.e. Pluto rules Scorpio and Saturn Capricorn, which may bring a little more harmony this time round. 1989 was the time of the Tienanmen square protests and consequent massacre and also the Vatican backed elections in Poland. Religious themes are carried by Jupiter and Governments by both Pluto in Capricorn and Saturn. Perhaps China will be in the news again and the potential for other religious backed uprisings possible. Hopefully this time around Neptune in Pisces harmonizing the Sun will bring some deeper compassion and empathy to any situations deeply affecting the global community. NEW MOON 21 Sagittarius 45 December 13, 2012 4:43 p.m.

LIBRA As the other Venus ruled sign you are, along with the Taurus folk, experiencing deep relationship and value modifications. Allow the old to dissolve into an ocean of infinite Love and be willing to put on the mantle of Forgiveness. This will encourage things to move at a much more accelerated pace and beckon in the new with grace and ease. It is possible to flow during these times of chaotic situations. Coming home to the internal source of existence itself will keep you focused on the truly important things in your life and the decisions and transition phases will be much smoother.

TAURUS Venus your ruler is the counter balance point within this Yod formation and as your ruler will bring some swift changes to your relationship status. You or your partner may be requiring more freedom. Communication is a key to bringing all of this into harmony, although it will still be challenging and a new model will be set through some kind of release and letting go process. Perhaps it is time for you to look at things from a different perspective. Possibly that of the significant other. All of your relationships in fact, are up for review. It may also be time for some of these relationships to leave your life.

SCORPIO Pluto is in Capricorn and creating a powerful image of a divining rod in the sky. Involving Saturn and Jupiter it brings expansion to your thinking and learning abilities with you also in a position to mature or take on more responsibility in your life. With responsibility I’m not meaning duty or heaviness, it is more willingness to uphold your part of agreements or relationships. These too also figure prominently in this celestial formation. Others of you will be leaving partnerships and forming new ones. Remain as stress free as you possibly can during these transition phases without trying to push the stream of events.

GEMINI You are another of our key players this fortnight with the finger pointing out through that Jupiter in Gemini. Mercury is in Sagittarius and is playing the fool, although a very truthful one. Telling the Truth is potentially a good thing, although communicating too much can be the downfall of many at this time. Be very aware of the words that are coming from your mouth and the impact they are having. It could be a good time for a little more tuning in and listening as well as blurting it all out. Be sensitive to the feelings and words of others. Accessing your own Divinity via the Neptune in Pisces will deepen your intuition.

SAGITTARIUS Although the Sun makes its exit from your sign on the Solstice we have Mercury and Venus both still in it. Communication and love working together on your behalf. Jupiter is the finger of God or the finger on the trigger and the decision is really yours now. How can you harness this powerful energy and bring much needed change to your life in a way that benefits all of your relating. Neptune is bringing a deeper sense of unity consciousness to the Planet as a whole and to you in particular at this time. Manifesting works both ways, so be very aware of what your mind is focused on. Manifestation can be instantaneous.

CANCER We start a new moon cycle now and it’s in Sagittarius, with the full moon in your sign on the 28th. This Full Moon will sit opposite Pluto and this means another bigger than normal month of changes for you. Many of you are in the transition phase, where much has left your life and as yet the new hasn’t been made manifest. The more you can relax here the better things will be for you. Although the old tendency is to get all bound up with fear of future shortcomings this is the most crucial phase to stay optimistic and calm. Allow the fears to arise and dialogue them on their way if you have to. Stay focused on your co-creative process.

CAPRICORN Saturn in Scorpio and ruled by that Pluto in your sign all pushing out through Jupiter in Gemini. There could be an urge to be overly communicative and to allow your nervous system to overload. Leave all over situations alone and move onto the bigger expression of your Divine Self. Change is inevitable at this time and many will be forced to let go of people, places, jobs and situations that in Truth no longer work for them. You intuitively know what these are. Stay focused on the issues in front of you as timing is revealed now in a Divine and sometimes instantaneous way. You are getting the hang of things.

LEO The Sun goes into Capricorn on the Solstice and this very auspicious day marks the beginning of your new life. Saturn is bringing a new form and a new structure. With the New Moon at the beginning of the fortnight you will feel the impetus to move and many of you will travel soon. The Solstice is marked by the sextile to Neptune and brings a window of Grace within your life. By the end of the fortnight and closer to Full Moon you will have the power to make the changes. Whether this be home, country, job or relationship you will have the strength to complete any or all of these. All hesitation is over.

AQUARIUS Uranus moves direct at the beginning of the fortnight and with this you will notice some remarkable changes. Aries is spontaneous and quick to act and this is more the mode of operation for you now. Although others may not be able to keep track or keep up with the swift inspirations as they surge through you, you on the other hand will be greatly motivated to move and to grow, change and expand. The next key phase for this will be at the end of May 2013. Create yourself anew during this time so you have a stronger capacity to weather the storms that could arise at that time.

VIRGO What would it take to bring balance to your life now? Although we are being asked to let go of much we are similarly being asked to adapt a new model of existence; one in which we are living from our Divine or God self rather than from our ego based personality or achieving for our own ends and status. The irony often is that when you live in alignment with source you become more prominent or well know. The other irony is that you couldn’t really care less about fame or glory when it is truly God centered. If you are feeling the impulse to take your life in a new direction, it may be time to follow it.

PISCES Neptune in Pisces is sextile the Sun on the day of the solstice. You will find that you are strategically placed at this time to act as a conduit, a channel for the healing of the Divine to move through your physical form/ earth body. You will be feeling more grounded than ever before and at the same time etherically placed to be an instrument for higher vibrations and attunements. Communication could well be a tool of the Divine and so if you are asked to speak or perform on this day then be willing to do so, as it could have ramifications that you are unaware of or maybe ever will be.

ARIES Mars continues in Capricorn this fortnight and moves on into Aquarius by the beginning of the next. It creates a harmonious aspect to the South Node bringing potential work or money related issues connected to your past, into your life. This Mars is very serious, hard working and dedicated to the mission. You will experience a change of pace by the time it shifts signs, and you will then find yourself involved in more humanitarian, group, friend or community based projects. Communication will be freer flowing and you can begin to experiment on this new level of existence. The hard work of the past few months is paying off.

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit Eliminating Stress

For those who have a very active mind and find it difficult to sit still, a progressive relaxation meditation may work best for you. Progressive relaxation involves a series of tension and release intervals, moving progressively from one part of the body to the next.

Most people have very little awareness about how they breathe. Many people go throughout their day with no awareness that they have actually been holding their breath. Proper breathing is fundamental to reducing stress and improving our health on all levels. If our breath is slow and controlled, we will instantly reduce hyper-alertness. Following is a great exercise to help increase your awareness about breathing: • •

• • • •

Lie down and close your eyes and begin to tune into your breathing, consciously taking deeper breaths in and slowly exhaling. Place your right hand on your stomach and your left hand on your chest; imagine that you are inflating a yellow balloon in your stomach (or any color you wish); as you inhale your stomach will expand. Exhale and allow the balloon to slowly deflate, completely emptying your stomach. Repeat to yourself silently: “Relax and let go, relax and let go, relax and let go.” Repeat this statement 10 times counting backwards from 10 to 1. When you get to 1, put your right hand thumb and index fingers together and anchor in this feeling of deep relaxation. Affirm to yourself that any time during your day when you begin to feel stressed, you can return to your anchor and you will instantly be relaxed.

So what can you do to reduce stress in your life and maintain your wellbeing? Regular exercise is certainly key; those wonderful endorphins and serotonins get released – nature’s antidote to feeling good. The more frequently we exercise, the more we are able to release our stress and stay healthy. But for some people exercise isn’t enough. Their jobs or personal life may be quite stressful or they may be going through a major crisis which has taken them to a breaking point. When this occurs, we need more tools to assist us with letting go of our stress so that we can return to a more balanced place within and our outer world will begin to change.

Monthly, quarterly, or annual payment systems

Over a prolonged period of time, if we allow our stress to build up without addressing it, this can lead to all kinds of illnesses including stomach ailments, sleep disorders, depression, mental and physical fatigue, adrenal fatigue, headaches and even more serious illnesses such as cancer. Stress can also increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes and asthma.

Begin with your feet. Point your feet and toes and then pull back on your feet. Fan your toes out as widely as possible. Hold for about 5 seconds and then relax your muscles. Then move up to the thighs. Straighten your legs and using the muscles in the fronts of your thighs, lock your knees tightly. Hold for 5 seconds and then relax. Continue up to the buttocks. Imagine you are severely constipated and tighten these muscles as much as possible. Hold for 5 seconds and relax. Now tense your stomach muscles as though you are preparing for the blow of someone who’s about to punch you in the gut. Hold for 5 seconds and relax. For chest and shoulders, place the palms of your hands together with your arms outstretched. Press your palms together as hard as you can. Hold for 5 seconds and relax. Continue to upper arms, forearms and hands. Bend your elbows until your hands are quite close to your shoulders and form a fist with each hand. Clench your fists and pull as hard as you can with your arms. Imagine that you are holding onto reins and pulling hard against a runaway team of horses. Hold for 5 seconds and relax. Finally come to your neck and face. Press your chin into your chest and clench your teeth. Close your face tightly as though a drawstring were pulling it shut. Squeeze your eyes, ears, mouth and nostrils tightly closed. With your eyes still closed, stretch your face open. Open your mouth wide, pull your ears back, open your nostrils and raise your eyebrows. Hold 5 seconds and relax. Take a few moments to scan your body for any lingering tension. If you find any, simply tell your body to let go. Notice the sensations of deep relaxation. When you feel fully relaxed, bring your awareness out of your body and into your external surroundings. When you feel ready, slowly open your eyes and return to your daily life feeling rejuvenated and relaxed. (From National Guild of Hypnotists)

When we are experiencing stress in our lives it affects us on so many levels. The primary physical signs of stress are: accelerated heart beat, nervous stomach, cold hands or feet, sweaty hands or feet, jittery arms or hands, cold chills, shallow or rapid breathing and butterflies in our stomach. The muscles in our bodies often tighten up around our neck and shoulders, back, arms, chest, stomach, legs, etc. Emotional signs of stress include being on the edge, guilt, sadness, worry, blame, fear, boredom and anger. This can lead to changes in behavior such as becoming more aggressive, withdrawing, procrastinating, hyperactivity, avoidance, relationship problems and substance abuse.

INTERNATIONAL HEALTH PLANS

A long time ago I interviewed a well known Indian guru who was visiting Bali. He came to offer his teachings that had been passed on to him by his teacher and the gurus who came before. Many people were asking questions about how to be happy, or how they could be more forgiving and let go of the past. I raised my hand and asked: “What is the main cause of illness?” He replied without hesitation, “Stress”.

Sinister Ethan Hawke plays a writer who specializes in true crime stories. For authenticity, he goes to live in a house where some very gruesome murders took place. During his stay some rather sinister paranormal activity occurs. Lawless In the American Prohibition period a backwoods family makes moonshine liquor, and gets into lots of problems when city gangsters try to muscle in.

Skyfall The new James Bond movie is rather unusual, and, rather good. There are no gadgets and gizmos or ‘Bond Girls’ in this new adventure. This time, the emphasis is on plot, and it is a rather interesting plot at that. James Bond has to recover a stolen computer-chip which contains the secret identities of all of Britain’s spies currently operating in the field. Many twists and turns emerge as the hunt is on. Daniel Craig presents an unusual James Bond. In this movie he is aging, and he can’t handle the action with his usual pizzazz. At the end there are also some developments which will really surprise you.

Hope Springs From David Frankel, the director of ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ (2006), comes another enjoyable comedic adult drama. Meryl Streep and Tommy Lee Jones play a couple who have been married for over thirty years. It is not as if their marriage is on the rocks, it has just gone stale! Although Tommy Lee is not all that keen, Meryl insists that they attend marriage guidance counseling. There, they are able to eventually iron out the wrinkles. The movie presents some interesting issues, which, no doubt, we all have to confront sometime in our marriages. This is not one of Meryl Streep’s ‘strong’ women. Rather, she portrays a woman who has been downtrodden for many years, but, unless her marriage is rejuvenated, she is prepared to walk away from it.

For a Good Time, Call … Two New York girls have lots of fun answering calls on a phone sex line.

Fall of the Innocent Czech director Petr Nikolaev makes a very moving and powerful movie as he looks at one of the more notorious Nazi atrocities of WWII. Shortly after the new German Commandant arrives in occupied Prague he is assassinated. The resistance fighters thought responsible are suspected to come from the Czech village of Lidice, and, as revenge, the Nazis kill every man in the town, raze it to the ground, and imprison the women and children. One man survives this carnage, having been in prison on a manslaughter charge at the time. The movie is extremely harrowing, and, it is not for the fainthearted. Guns, Girls and Gambling This is a ‘Pop Art’ inspired off-beat black comedy, which will take you by surprise. The movie also seems to be inspired by the sloppy film techniques of early Quentin Tarantino. A priceless antique mask is stolen from an Indian reservation casino during a poker game, and, a group of Elvis impersonators appear to be the major suspects. Much mayhem follows as Cowboys, Indians, and a corrupt

Fall of the Innocent Shortly after the new Nazi Commandant arrives in Prague he is assassinated. Guns, Girls and Gambling A priceless antique Indian mask is stolen from a casino during a poker game.

Sparkle Three Black-American sisters form a soul group, and, as they do the rounds of the late 1960s nightclubs, they hope to be picked-up by a record company. Although this is a fictitious tale, it is a typical ‘rags to riches’ show business story, full of all the usual pitfalls you would expect. However, there is plenty of good imitation Motown musical numbers to keep you amused. On a more macabre note, the movie contains Whitney Houston’s last screen appearance before her sudden death. Whitney plays the sisters’ bible-bashing mother, and, let’s face it, she’s not all that good. All-the-same, Whitney delivers a great uplifting and inspiring ballad, which is a nice memory to have of her.

Union Square A selfish woman takes her time telling her sister that their mother has died.

Argo In 1979, at the height of the Iranian Revolution, the American Embassy in Tehran is stormed and the staff held hostage. However, six people manage to escape, and find refugee at the residence of the Canadian Ambassador. The problem is how to get them out without the Iranian secret police finding out. Ben Affleck plays a CIA operative, who comes up with an ingenious plan to achieve their rescue. Still, as this movie is based on real life events, we kinda know the outcome of the story. However, to his credit, Ben Affleck, also acting as director, is able to create a lot of suspense and tension which keeps his movie rolling along. Will they get out of the house? Will they make it to the airport? Will they get pass immigration? Will the Jumbo Jet take off?

Cheerful Weather for the Wedding A posh British family comes together for a wedding. As they gather in the drawing room, the bride hides out in her bedroom with a case of cold-feet.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Establishments that serve food are obliged by Indonesian government regulation to pay a 10% government tax. This will appear on most bills as an added tax and not normally included in the price of your food or drink. Many places also include a service charge of anything between 5 and 11%, meaning that the prices you read on the menu could have 21% whacked on at the end. Normally menus state that in small print tax will be added later – this will quite possibly be in Balinglish which newbies may not be able to interpret: “Price not be include tax and service charge must be add 21%” or something to that effect.

Out for dinner recently, a new friend who was visiting Bali for the first time asked me this question. Indeed it’s a little bit unclear what you should do but you’ll find that your bill is a good place to look for the basic answers.

Do I need to tip in Bali?

It’s said that staff members get to split this 15% service charge at the end of the day/week/ month. Places that don’t add a service charge manage to keep their prices down but it can mean that the staff end up with a lower salary unless they really provide good service and guests give a tip. On the other hand, I’ve heard of waiters/waitresses who get really low base salaries but in fact make a lot more from tips due to their typical Indonesian friendliness. These days some places even have tip boxes which may make you feel obliged to drop in a few coins while they’re at the cashier, even if the service was not so hot. Many new visitors to Bali are more likely to tip, especially if they feel that their currency is a lot stronger than the rupiah, or they are trying to ‘get rid’ of their rupiah before they go home (being one of the most useless currencies in the world to have in your pocket if you visit any other country outside of Indonesia, by the way). Basically, if you’re happy with the service, tip – the staff will surely remember you when you come back next time.

Electronic bargains and RIMO update

www.thenbagus.com

RIMO update. RIMO, now known as RTC (RIMO Trade Center), has changed since I last reviewed it. My friend Peter (http://www.1stopbali.com/shopping/electronics) sent me the following info:

NC/CI/P-30 May 12

RIMO Centre does concentrate on computers and in particular laptops and notebook computers. However within the last year, the number of camera shops has increased and there are several shops now selling many quality brands.

ve rti

Mobile phones also have a strong presence with spare parts, repairs and accessories available.

There are at least two stores that cater for businesses by selling point of sale equipment and business items like scales and security cameras. There is also at least one shop that has its main core business selling security camera systems, though the cameras are not the huge PTZ types.

There are stores that sell computer parts such as motherboards and cases etc. There are also somewhat dimly lit stores that do computer repairs; they do seem to have a range of laptop spare parts. If you have a dead laptop, it could be worth checking out if they can be of service. Of course, if you are only in Bali for a short time, there may not be sufficient time for the repairers to obtain the necessary parts for your pc.

• Sales • Service • Parts • On Call Site Service

Location: http://goo.gl/maps/zB1Vh S 8° 44’ 40” E 115° 10’ 46”

Memory items abound, USB memory sticks and SD cards etc. These are quite inexpensive. Be prepared to pay about two thirds of the price in Australia.

+62 8311 819 816 • +62 818 548 095 +62 361 743 7138

Be aware though that not all items are such a bargain. Many of the items of any type will be cheaper but perhaps by only 10%, but this would be ten percent off the cheapest price at home. So there are some savings to be made, but not on everything.

www.NyamaBali.com C/CI/I-17 Oct 12

Other bargain places in Bali. Many places welcome bargaining and small discounts are often given. Bali Makmur (Jalan Teuku Umar, Denpasar) is worth a browse for brand name cameras, mobile phones and an extensive range of computer peripherals. This main high street has a number of other options with official distributors of brand name goods from companies such as Samsung, Panasonic and Sony.

info@nyamabali.com

tis er

There is one store that sells, almost exclusively, Logitech products. They don’t have all the Logitech items, but if you find what you want, there are savings to be made.

There are also a few second hand electronics stores in central Denpasar located on busy Jalan Teuku Umar. Unsurprisingly the range is likely to be pretty limited but prices are very cheap.

Elsewhere in Bali the choice is very limited and the very few electronics shops based in the tourist areas are expensive by comparison. The one exception is Electronic City (Discovery Mall, Kuta) which is a vast branch of Indonesia’s largest electronics retailer. There is an excellent range of digital cameras, TVs, stereo and phones here at fairly decent prices. They also offer extended international warrantees.

Throughout the Kuta and Legian area there are literally hundreds of small kiosks selling new and used mobile phones and computer equipment and accessories and is a fairly good option if you value convenience over price.

Summary. So I hope you now know you don’t need to go to Singapore to find electronic bargains. There are many places right here in Bali! Bali cannot really compete with cities such as Singapore, Hong Kong or Bangkok for variety but compares very favorably on price. The best bargains around are for mobile phones where there is a virtually limitless choice and a basic model can be had for just rp150,000. Digital cameras and portable DVD players are also good value.

Still, the best bet for audio equipment, computers, cameras and the like is to head to Denpasar. There is a wide range of electronics suppliers here and, as it is not a major tourist centre, prices are much lower than everywhere else in Bali. There are many small outlets selling locally made and brand name goods at prices which are among the cheapest in the region. Before committing yourself always consider whether an international warranty is offered. Most products come with English language instruction booklets. In some of the smaller outlets, any preloaded software that comes with a new desktop computer or laptop may not be original, so keep that in mind when you are bargaining on price. ============================================================================================ Have a question or problem?

Ubud Area Is Heredity Destiny? Middlesex by Jeffry Eugenides

There is a poignant coming-of-age love story full of “the tensions of innocent and helpless desire”, between Calliope and the WASP establishment girl whom the adult Cal, our narrator, refers to as ‘The Object’ (derived from That Obscure Object of Desire, a 1977 film by Louis Bunuel). For me this was the most beautifully written and most accomplished part of the book.

“I think it is important to remind people of the extent of our free will.” -J. E.

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

He guides readers through the horrors of war (The GrecoTurkish War of 1919–1922) and into the love and marriage of Desdemona and Lefty, a brother and sister from a small village on the side of Mount Olympus who immigrate to the US because their village burns to the ground. They are the ones who create the mutated gene. Readers observe the assimilation process as it transforms the first generation of Greeks into mainstream Americans. The material striving of Calliope’s parents, Milton and Tessie are emblematic of many immigrants who dove into the pursuit of happiness via business and money. Calliope’s father is a Hercules Hot Dog Franchise mogul. The Detroit race riots (1967), which destroyed an inner city and ushered forth middle- class white flight to suburban Grosse Point, Michigan, are portrayed with unflinching honesty.

Review by Uma Anyar

Jeffry Eugenides received the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 2003 and he was a headliner at the 2012 UWRF where I heard him talk about his books. He has also written The Virgin Suicides (1993), which has been made into a movie by Sofia Coppola in 1999, and The Marriage Plot (2011), which Eugenides started writing while taking a break from Middlesex, is his third novel. He is not one of those authors who produce a novel a year come rain or come shine. When asked to read from one of his books he chose the first two pages of Middlesex and hooked me with the first paragraph.

C/U/G-7 March 12

In modern societies Hermaphrodites have been reviled, mistreated and exhibited in freak shows for the questionable delectation of so-called ‘normal people” with a buck to spare and a penchant for ogling. Today we are fortunate to be living at the start of a new era of medical knowledge and social advancement that will hopefully yield a more tolerant and accepting attitude to human gender variations. Eugenedies explained that a new term- ‘intersex person’, has emerged and it is considered more anatomically correct and more suitable than the over mythologized ‘hermaphrodite’ (the name of a minor deity that was born of Hermes and Aphrodite). The great strides achieved in the field of genetics during the past thirty years have caused us to rethink nature, nurture, gender and ‘normal’ more than a few times. Cal was raised as Calliope but he chose to be Cal when his hormones kicked in and he sensed maleness in his blood and bones. The saga is told in a patient, calm and often wry voice that manages to be both modern and mythic simultaneously. The forty-one-year old Cal is is a contemporary Homer who lives in Berlin and narrates the odyssey of the Stephanides clan on its journey through the tumultuous waters of the Twentieth Century.

They have been revered by many cultures. The Navajo Indians of North America venerated them for their prophetic and healing abilities. Anthropologist Shirley Oliver- Jones states, “Whereas the vast majority of cultures around the world and in Papua New Guinea adhere to a gender- and sex-dimorphic paradigm in which only males and females are recognized, the Sambians of Papua New Guinea’s eastern highlands are among the interesting minority of societies that accept three sex categories: male, female, and a “third sex” or hermaphrodite. Classic examples of “third-sex persons” include the hijra of India, the berdache of American Indian and Eskimo societies, the acaults of Myanmar, the kathoey of Thailand, and the vehine of Polynesia.”

Jalan Hanoman #64 – Ubud, Bali. Tel: 0361 796 9178

As I read this sizeable novel I found myself wondering how the author managed to know so much about how a hermaphrodite feels about him/herself. Then I remembered Eugenides recounting an incident in which an intersex person came up to him after a talk and angrily told him that he both loved and hated Middlesex because, “ you have stolen my story.”

The salient fact about this condition is that it’s caused by a recessive genetic mutation. Populations who have the mutation tend to be isolated, often inbred. So if you give the matter some thought and consider how many communities all over the world that have resided in isolation over the past centuries you arrive at the conclusion that hermaphrodites have been among us for eons.

“I was born twice: first, as a girl, on a remarkably smog less Detroit day in January of 1960; and then again as a teenage boy, in an emergency room near Petrosky, Michigan, in August of 1974. Specialized readers may have come across me in Dr. Peter Luces’s study, “Gender Identity in 5-AlphaReductase Pseudohermaphroites” published in the Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology in 1975. Or maybe you’ve seen my photograph in chapter sixteen of the now sadly outdated Genetics and Heredity. That’s me on page 578, standing naked beside a height chart with a black box covering my eyes.”

At our shop in Ubud, our friendly staff will guide you to all things of a Spiritual/ New Age nature, including: Books, Music CDs, DVDs, Crystals, Incense, Jewelry, Inspirational Cards, Candles, Yoga Mats, Meditation Cushions, Engraved Stones, Tibetan Bowls, Clothing and more…

During an interview with Jeffry for her book club Oprah Winfrey asked: “What are the most unusual questions you’ve been asked about Middlesex?”

‘What is bred in the bone will come out in the flesh’ is the adage that seems to haunt Middlesex, an epic novel spanning three generations, three countries and the tenacious journey of a single mutated gene that is responsible for the 5-alpha-reductase deficiency syndrome which asserts itself in the fourteen- year- old body of Calliope Helen Stepanides. This hormonal upheaval transforms her into Cal Stepanides- a guy who likes girls, but not before Calliope/Cal lives through a period of being betwixt and between genders, in the realm of Middlesex. Without a doubt, this is one identity crisis worthy of a Pulitzer Prize.

He responded: “They usually involve my pants. People want me to remove them. It’s difficult to convince some people that I make things up for a living. They think all this really happened to me, which it didn’t.” When I finished reading Middlesex I felt an amalgam of admiration for a brilliant writer’s literary feat coupled with an unseemly yearning for the story to actually be true. I wished it had been a real memoir by an intersex writer. But then realized there will be one, as fiction has a way of influencing reality.

I w a s wondering h o w, i n a little Ubud café, a local cook (no offence intended) managed to create an absolutely superb double-cooked crispy pork belly dish, with presentation like a 5-star restaurant. Aussie Style Char Grill, generous grade A Australian steaks and gourmet hamburgers. Best advice I’ve had this month was to leave room for the baked mango soufflé. If you like their low priced Australian wines, perhaps it’s also best to take advantage of KopiKats’ free transport offer too. Home and hotel delivery service available too.

KOPIKAT TASTY

My first two years in Bali Christmas were a bit strange; I ended up cooking lunch for 30 people; and there wasn’t a turkey to be found. A few years later and so many options! Taksu Restaurant has Christmas Eve Tapas and a Christmas Day set lunch or dinner (an out-of-this-world Balinese “turkey betutu”, tasty vegetarian dishes and 50% kids’ discounts). Bernadette’s Warung has a great Xmas menu, anyone who’s celebrated with Tutmak seem to go right back again for the next year, and the new KopiKats up on Jalan Sanggingan will serve tender, delicious roast beef. If you like music with your celebrations, Jazz Café has Christmas Eve and Christmas Day menus, with great blues and jazz and on Christmas evening Santa Claus comes to Bar Luna with the toe-tapping Crescendo band, two for one cocktails and free tapas from 5-8pm. So it seems a bit strange that I am off to West Africa in a week’s time. Perhaps I’ll bring back some Christmas recipes for next year.

DOCTOR YOUR SOUL There’s an Ubud-based music group who perform to standing-room only crowds that throw money and underwear on the stage. And though world-famous singers have begged to record some of these songs, the Soul Doctors save their inspired compositions for us, their loyal Bali fans. Or so their new CD label says. I can’t vouch for the flying underwear part, nor rumours of the 2016 Olympic Games, but Ubud’s Soul Doctors, the group founded by Wil Hammer and Dennis Ferrell four years ago, are fine musicians. The self-titled CD is blues and swing and a bit of country. These are mostly original compositions from a tight group of four Indonesian and extpat musicians, with great guest harmonies and some power-packed vocals by Aussie Kerry Pendergrast.

Caring For The Poor Of Bali The Crisis Foundation of Lovina By Skye Laphroaig

MISSION TO CARE Lovina is known for its peaceful, friendly people. Activities include dolphin watching, scuba diving, snorkeling, visiting hot springs, serene ocean and ancient temples. When Gloria first arrived in Lovina as a tourist during 1995, she was attempting to heal after the death of her son, hoping to “turn the pain around and find something useful from it.” She felt a calling to remain in Bali and serve the people in need and could not ignore the plight of the Balinese community.

ve rti During my visit, Gloria gathered some donated clothes for Erwin, a Javanese orphan who was taken in by a Balinese family just five days prior to his accident. We take off in the old Crisis Care van, which doubles up as an ambulance to inspect the wounds of a young man who is very lucky to be alive.

Would villagers benefit from a community project? We would like to start a group where young girls and boys learn how to use our sewing machines. By learning to sew, they can earn a little bit of money, which gives them independence. Other life skills projects are planned for next year.

As we approach the village where 16-yearold Erwin had his accident, just three weeks ago, I see a lonely cow is tethered ‘baking’ in the scorching midday sun. Lovina is on the very dry northern coast of Bali and for part of the year there is nothing lush to be seen. Most of the narrow strip between the mountains and sea is very barren in the dry season. All grass and most of the lower vegetation is dead and the trees are brown. This is not the verdant Bali most people think of.

How can readers help the clinic? There are several options for contributing to Crisis Care Clinic. We currently need manual labour. A couple of men with ‘carpentry’ experience can help us renovate a building and replace the roof with a corrugated one. Our Foundation will raise the money required for materials, and provide accommodation. We also need stretch gauze bandages, (not crepe) and medical supplies from overseas. Also any second hand bedding can be dropped at the ‘Drop-off Point’ because the mountains get very cold during June, July and August. Please contact Crisis Care if you can help.

HEALING ERWIN A smiling and grateful Erwin meets Mama Gloria knowing she and her dedicated team saved his life. Without her round the clock treatment, Erwin would have probably died from shock and infection. The Bakso soup cart, which toppled over, left Erwin with both combustion burns and scalding burns to over 60% of his body. Now his torso and legs are healing and in three months he will fully recover.

Where is the Crisis Care drop-off point? You can take the donated goods to Kuta and they will be kept there until CCF comes to pick them up. Please label the goods clearly with “CCF”; also leave an email address or telephone number so we can make contact and thank you personally. The Kuta/Legian drop-off point is at Piggy’s Bar, Poppies Lane 2 (opposite the Barong Hotel). Or contact us by email and we will get back to you ASAP.

“After the accident Erwin was taken to a Singaraja hospital, but they had no beds and no room, so a doctor made the decision to transfer him to the clinic”, Gloria recalls. “I first discovered a dressing called Burn Aid during the Bali bomb and we now have a sponsor who is an executive for the Australian pharmaceutical company that makes the product. It is impregnated with tea tree gel, and regularly used for burns overseas. The company sends us Burn Aid free of charge.”

RIVERS RUN DRY The Foundation has a highly trained and well-respected resident doctor, supported by 10 staff, including two ICU nurses, and two midwives. As part of the ‘Outreach Services Program’ Crisis Care supports a local SMP school, which I was keen to visit. Punggang School is situated half way up a windy, unstable mountain road and consists of 80 children. A sponsor has donated funds for a catchment tank to be built, in order to capture rainwater for emergency use. Town water is very expensive here and jobs are scarce, so many people suffer from a lack of water for cooking, washing their hands, general hygiene, and toilets. Water is ferried up the mountain by Crisis Care staff, using jerry cans; the water is from a deep bore near the clinic. And some women walk 5 kilometers each day by foot to collect the basic life requirement, which, in contrast, is flowing out of taps and showers in every hotel room across the island. There are no motorbikes here; people must walk.

What accidents do you see on a regular basis? Balinese use an old-fashioned scythe to cut grass on the sides of roads. This implement is very sharp and serious lacerations occur often. They also suffer burns while cooking on open fires and carrying pots of boiling rice around on unstable ground. And of course, we see injuries resulting from motorbike accidents.

Can people donate money to the Crisis Care Foundation? You can transfer money to us by Western Union or into our bank accounts in Indonesia and Australia. If you are coming to Bali on holiday, you are welcome to hand over the donation in person by visiting us at the clinic in Lovina and get a better understanding how your money is allocated. If you are planning a visit to the clinic in Lovina please let me know well in advance either by phone, or by email.

When I first approached Gloria for an interview, she had recently attended to a young Indonesian man with severe burns. Erwin accidentally tipped over a Bakso cart while selling boiling soup to customers on the street. During my visit, I was surprised to witness an area of Bali so impoverished, and yet so resilient. Some would say, ‘the real Bali’. Mama Gloria greeted me with a hug and shared some amazing sights, unknown to most tourists who visit this island.

with a dirt floor. We treat infected wounds, tuberculosis, dengue fever, typhus, intestinal worms, malnutrition, childbirth, and many other things in between.

tis er

The lady who runs the clinic is affectionately known as ‘Mama Gloria’. She has supported the local community for over sixteen years with her knowledge and nursing experience. When Gloria Goodwin came to Lovina seventeen years ago, she discovered a side of Bali unknown to many tourists. In the remote mountain areas, s h e s a w p o v e r t y, sickness, and a severe lack of healthcare and education. Appalled by what she witnessed, Gloria created the Crisis Care Foundation where she provides essential healthcare to many people in need and accepts clothing from visiting tourists who would otherwise throw them away.

Perhaps the proposed Lovina Airport will open up the area for visitors and bring wealth to this proud community? The desired effect of constructing an airport in the north is to expose Bali’s pristine northern coastlines to more tourists. Thus enabling authorities in the south to better manage ‘runaway’ levels of construction and property development to more sustainable levels. There are plenty of good reasons to visit north Bali and a new airport in Kubutambahan, situated 23 kilometer’s from Lovina Beach, could help open up the region to the world.

The Crisis Care Foundation operates a small clinic in the village of Enjngsangyang Kaliasem, (near Lovina) in North Bali. The area consists of five primary villages, amounting to 1000 people without adequate water. Rivers are dry and there is no water for cooking or washing for most of the year. The Crisis Care Clinic provides urgently needed free medical services to some of the poorest families in the community, with an Emergency Room to stabilize patients before transferring them to nearby hospitals. Crisis Care’s specialty is providing round the clock ICU treatment for burns victims, literally saving peoples lives.

One of the great challenges faced by Crisis Care is raising the funds needed for paying staff and other basic monthly overheads. The clinic is open from 8am until 7pm every day except Sunday. See further details at their website or email Gloria Goodwin at: balicrisiscare@hotmail.com www.balicrisiscare.org

Founding Director, Gloria Goodwin believes it is her mission to help provide stress relief for the poor and sick of Bali, so they may enjoy their piece of paradise as well as the many tourists. At the age of 66, Gloria would ‘rather be here making a difference than playing lawn bowls and bingo back home’. I decided to interview Mama Gloria and find out more about life in Enjungsangyang.

Upon our arrival, many children lined up in an orderly fashion, standing in the scorching heat. They prepared themselves to sing Indonesia’s National Anthem, while dressed in recently donated school uniforms. What a show of strength in the face of adversity, as students united before us and sung with passion and pride for the country they love. Watching this sight it became clear, Indonesia needs to invest more in education and trust the spirit of its younger generation.

What services do you provide at Crisis Care Clinic? We have a highly trained resident doctor and two Balinese Midwives and two ICU nurses to assist. They cope with births as well as offering pre and postnatal care to hundreds of local women. The ICU nurses are highly trained to cope with emergencies. Trauma and counseling support is available from a local welfare worker working with the clinic. Outreach services include home visits to those who are unable to go to the clinic, school support programs, HIV/AIDS counseling, emergency aid for disasters, landslides, fires, flooding and road traffic accidents, counseling for social needs, homelessness, family support, child abuse. Describe the illnesses seen at the clinic Our patients are very poor and do not have a safe environment in which to live. Often, they only have a ‘cow shed’ type dwelling

Christmas Punch Serves 6 - 8 Ingredients: - 25-30 dried rosella flowers - 325 ml. boiling water

Directions:

Pour the boiing water over the dried rosella flowers and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain, throwing away the flowers, and cool the tea to room temperature. Chill. You can do this the day before. Slice the orange and use only the most perfect middle pieces. Remove the seeds and cut into small triangles. Set aside.

Victoria arrived early to scramble the eggs, crisp the bacon, and slice her homemade Italian Christmas bread while Margie decorated the table and I got the smoked salmon platter assembled. Wayan kept ahead of the dishes and helped where needed. The only problem? The guests were to arrive in an hour and we hadn’t perfected the punch. This required much adjusting and tasting.....’tis the season to be jolly...ho ho ho.

Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Never the Twain by Abdoel Moeis

Some have posited that the conflicts Hanafi faced, in which he is torn between two women, serves an allegory for pre-independent Indonesia as it groped towards a sense of belonging to one unified nation. Which woman should the Western-oriented Hanafi marry? The simple-hearted Rapiah represents traditional adat values while Corrie, the feisty, liberated Westernized woman, represents progress and modernity. Hanafi’s confusion and anxiety symbolize the competing ideologies of the day. Which course will the emerging nation take? Staying on the old path might mean being stuck in the dark world of superstition and ignorance that had made Indonesia so powerless for so long against Dutch colonialism, but choosing Western ways and values might lead to the creation of a race of people who are doubt-ridden and half-baked, neither fully Eastern nor fully Western.

ve rti

This tragic novel, whose title in Indonesian is Salah Asuhan (Wrong Upbringing), is among the most popular works of modern Indonesian fiction. In a country where print runs rarely extend beyond a first or second printing, this book first published in 1928 - has far surpassed the norm both in time that it has remained in print and in volume of sales. The lovers’ star-crossed story has also been popularized on television dramas.

Hanafi, the novel’s main character, is a young man from the Mingankabau region of West Sumatra who is madly in love with Corrie du Bussee, a beautiful Eurasian, even though he has long been betrothed, according to West Sumatran tradition, to his cousin Rapiah. Never the Twain depicts the tension between customs and traditions and the problem of racial discrimination in the Dutch East Indies of the 1920s. The author masterfully reveals the cruel consequences of colonial legislation aimed at preserving apartheid by allowing the book’s characters to become mouthpieces. The book has even been compared to Jane Eyre in which discrimination based on social class also looms large. The book’s main source of tension is in Hanafi himself. Because of his Western education, he rejects and ridicules the customs of his own people and eventually becomes completely alienated from his native beliefs to the point where both worlds become irreconcilable. Indeed, the book’s title was inspired by the line “East is East, and West is West, and never the train shall meet” from the Kipling poem The Ballad of East and West.

Moeis was among a number of Minang writers producing works in standard Malay, which soon developed a distinct literary genre, the so-called “Minang novels” Even though edited under watchful eyes to make sure that the contents would not threaten the racist regime’s status quo, these writers would nevertheless subtly described colonial realities in ways that made their true feelings known. For the important contribution Moeis made in Indonesia’s independence struggle, he has been designated a national hero. Many streets and roads in Indonesia’s cities have been named after him.

In the end, Hanafi is a victim of his own desires, weighed down by the burden of duty and the pain and passion of love. The deeper you bore into the story, the more you are convinced that it is only a matter of time before this headstrong young man is going to one day get his come uppance. When that final reckoning comes, Hanafi is full of regrets.

In spite of the book’s tendency towards the theatrical, Moeis still makes his protagonists into believable human beings that all of us can relate to. Characters like Corrie, Hanafi, the landlord Piet and Corrie’s father, a retired French architect, shine from the very first pages.

Author Abdoel Moeis was born in Sungai Puar in West Sumatra in 1880. He received a Western education and studied medicine in Jakarta for three years. In 1928 Moeis published his first novel, Salah Asuhan, with the state-owned Balai Pustaka, a publishing house that was established to promote literacy through works of literature, the very first efforts by Indonesians to build a national identity.

The most famous of Abdoel Moeis’s works, the novel is one of several that were originally published by Balai Pustaka and are now firmly entrenched and treasured in the country’s cultural heritage. In 2010, this English translation was published by the Lontar Foundation as part of its Modern Indonesia Series.

tis er

The translator’s enthusiastic praise for the book accounts for the smooth and natural sounding translation. Written in plain English with well-constructed sentences, the story and the realistic verbal exchanges between the characters are easy to follow and understand. That said, this love story, which was considered torrid in the 1920s, takes place during age of innocence when suitors still gave flowers, names of lovers were carved on benches to symbolize eternal love, blushing women sent cards of endearment as “incomparable sensations washed over her body,” “surrendered to his desire” and were “swept away.” The melodramatic ending has Corrie on her death bed promising to meet her husband in heaven, complete with a cemetery scene in which Hanafi throws himself uncontrollably on his wife’s grave.

For Sale; Home theater Pioneer, and center speaker with two stand Pioneer Speaker for Rp 1.5million. please add PIN BB 28C74495 for picture or SMS 0819 9995 6588 Nusa Dua. [106]

Abdoel Moeis, who died in Bandung in 1959, also published three other novels, among them the well-received Pertemuan Jodoh (The Destined Marriage Partners), but none of them attained the disarming honesty and narrative power of Salah Asuhan, one of the milestones of modern Indonesian literature.

K Over the past few years fibre optic cable has

been buried in orange plastic pipes along roads all over Bali. It even winds its way right up to Kin tamani. I’ve watched a couple of guys splicing the cables in a little van alongside a pit by a road in Bangli, just near a water tap where people were lining up for their twice-weekly water ration. I don’t know when the cable (or the water) is going to be available for connection to everyone, but cable will affect the economy and opportunities of Bali dramatically, with universal access up to 100MB. What services could you be ready to offer all these people with direct internet access? As an example, a full high definition movie was recently downloaded in a trial in just 39 seconds; if you either store movies electronically or currently rent them out from a shop then this will totally change your business model.

When I arrived here in Bali so many lifetimes ago there were no smart phones, no facebook, twitter or LinkedIn, no Trip Adviser. Hardly any internet, and what there was happened at mind-numbing slowness.

Now new tools and apps see people checking up on and passing comment on your business at the speed of light. With Trip Adviser linked to facebook on my phone I now have sent to me my friends’ reviews from all over the world. So here I am in Bali reading about a friend‘s impressions of a restaurant in Malta. Digital disruption is happening now and will only become more intense. Normal business – your business - is going to be affected in major ways, the only question is when.

By The Coach

This Sporting Life Continuing in This Sporting Life’s roundup of sports in Bali in 2012, with last edition being surfing, today we look at the year that was in cricket in Bali,starting with the the inaugural BALI INTERNATIONAL TWENTY20 CUP held on the week of 19-27 May 2012.

Following the success of the Sanur event, BSF Cricket’s Wayan Samuel decided the west coast could do with some beach cricket action and so organised the inaugural Kuta Karnival Beach Cricket Tournament on 13 & 14 October on the iconic Kuta beach as part of the Kuta Karnival.

TEAMS: Scarborough Sharks (Perth, Australia) Bintang Bandits (Perth, Australia) Udayana CC (Bali) Gianyar Red Ants (Bali)

Saturday: A great day with credit to all the players playing under the scorching sun & strong wind.The Bali Sports Foundation Team easily beat both The Captain Cook Crew & Team Sardinia (with 4 AFL players!) to win the Inaugural Kuta Karnival Beach Cricket Trophy. The Captain Cook Crew won the Runner’s Up trophy. Sunday: The last part of the Inaugural Kuta Karnival Beach Cricket Tournament was held on Sunday with the school’s competition.

NEGARA - SERIRIT - GIANYAR - PANJER SINGARAJA - SANUR - BATUBULAN - AMLAPURA TABANAN - NUSA DUA PLAZA - SINGARAJA PLAZA C/Ns/G-24 March 10

Following the local action, it was on to the national stage with the Under 19’s National Cricket Championship (Kejuaraan Nasional Cricket) held on 22-25 November in Tangerang, Banten, Java. The Bali players came from Gianyar, Denpasar & Badung Regencies with 8 of the 13 players selected being members of the Bali Sports Foundation with Denpasar CC Head Coach, I Wayan Suandi, appointed as Team Coach. Bali easily accounted for North Sumatra & Lampung in the group stage and were looking like the favourites with huge scores made. In the Semi-Final, Bali smacked Banten for 191 runs and then easily bowled them all out, with Banten making only 27 runs to win by a record 164 runs. The Final vs West Java, Bali batted first making just 8/72 for their lowest total for the championships.It all came down to the final over of the final match of the championship with West Java needing just 6 runs and Bali needing just 1 wicket to take the National Championship Trophy.

Following the Twenty20,the HATTEN WINES BALI CRICKET LEAGUE started on the 13 May ending on 18 November 2012. This year marked the arrival of a new sponsor for the league, Hatten Wines and also the highest number of teams to play in the league reflecting the growth of cricket in Bali.

NC/Ns/U-12 Dec. 12

John & Maureen Stewart put in a lot of hard work to get this tournament off the ground. Everybody involved enjoyed the week where the young Balinese players mingled with the experienced Aussie teams. Already, a few extra Aussie teams have committed to play for 2013.

GRAND FINAL: Udayana CC 176 def Bintang Bandits 114

5000 Indonesian Antiques, Antiquities and Tribal Art Objects are looking for a “home” where they can properly be displayed and sold. 1000+ Textiles, 350 Stone Sculptures, 300 Wooden Artefacts, Weapons, Bronzes, Paintings and other Works of Art and much more from the Bronze Age to the early 20th century, collected over 40 years, now need a House or Villa, Established Gallery, 5 Star Hotel, Restaurant (or other) where “5 Star Guests” are looking for “5 star Objects”. We’re not looking for big/fast money; we are looking for a reliable partner (with reliable accounting).Large or small, in Jakarta and/or Bali. Let’s makemoney together!

On September 30 as part of the Sanur Village Festival, Bali Sports Foundation together with Denpasar Cricket held the 2nd Annual SVF Beach Cricket Tournament on Mertasari Beach. The Junior Champions were SMPN 9 of Denpasar whilst SMAN 1 Gianyar (Red Ants) retained the Seniors title they won in 2011.

During the Hattens Cricket League a number of inaugural events took place starting with Indonesia’s 1st Indoor Cricket tournament held on the 16th July 2012. The event sponsored by the Bali Sports Foundation and held at the Meazza Futsal Arena, was the first of its kind to take place in Indonesia. The rules were similar to what was used in the 1st Beach Cricket Tournament in Indonesia also held by the BSF. 3 teams were involved, Gianyar, Denpasar and Westcoast CC playing each other once. The final was between Gianyar vs Denpasar, with Denpasar winning by 20 runs (53 - 33).

And the cricket doesn’t stop because of the rainy season, with the inaugural Bali Indoor Cricket League,which started on December 2 and will continue until the 24th of March 2013,with 6 teams entered and players from 13 to 60 years old involved in the fun. Games are played every fortnight Sunday at the D’Lounge Futsal & Resto in Dalung with proper Indoor Cricket rules applied in the 16 over format.Last week saw Denpasar CC def The Captain Cook Crew and BSF Gianyar easily defeat the Galaxy AllStars. Anyone interested in playing Indoor Cricket or just enjoy a cold beer while spectating, please contact Wayan Sam on 0819 3628 4877 (SMS ONLY). This is the Very First Indoor Cricket League founded in Indonesia!

C/Ns/G-14 Nov. 12

So a good year for cricket with a number of “firsts” and looking ahead to 2013 the Bali International Sixes, Bali Twenty20’s, the Cricket League, Indoor League and Beach Cricket will all be back on. SPORTS TRAINING

So a repeat of the 2011 Bali Cricket League Grand Final with the UCC eager to take revenge for that loss and defend their title. But it wasn’t to be with the Veterans taking their 2nd trophy in 3 years with a 5/131 to 8/130 win over the UCC.

In a very unlucky final over for Bali, West Java found the runs by way of sundries to win 9/73 to 8/72. Bali Sports Foundation Ubud Team Captain - Gus Alit was awarded the Best Batsman of the U19 National Championship. BSF Cricket’s Wayan Sam commented “The Bali Sports Foundation is very proud of our team members that represented Bali.”

As we are in the rainy season, many sports are suspended until the new year, so best check using the contact addresses below.

The UCC finished on top of the ladder, followed by the Veterans, BSF Gianyar & Westcoast CC. In the First SemiFinal, UCC easily accounted for Westcoast CC making the Final for the 3rd successive year.The Second Semi-Final was a thrilling encounter with BSF Gianyar needing only 1 wicket to make their first Grand Final, but wasn’t to be with the Veterans making the Final after missing out last year.

Question: I’m a 21-year-old male from Australia, and I have a bit of a problem. It seems I have fallen for my friend’s girlfriend. They have been together for 5 years and have never been apart. Over this time I have become really good friends with her as I was already good friends with him. She and I get along well, and we don’t mind flirting with each other. In fact, some people have thought that she was my girlfriend. Not only do I think she is a nice person and beautiful, I love everything about her. I just can’t stop thinking of her, and I have felt this way for a few years now. I can’t stand it anymore. Something that hurts me a lot is that he treats her badly and is always nasty to her in front

This is completely unhealthy. It is manipulative and controlling. You can’t change another person’s feelings or behavior. Each of us is in charge of only ourselves. People are going to do whatever they want to do; it is that plain and simple. You need to stop seeing your friend’s girlfriend at once, and stop trying to manipulate the outcome. Grabbing onto something this fiercely can result only in blocking the natural flow of events. Any resultant sense of “control” you may experience is but an illusion that keeps you and the others involved from being free to grow and be happy.

Dr. ZZ: Although I am an animal lover, this has nothing to do with putting the dog’s feelings above the safety of your guests. Rather, I am more concerned about you. Ordinarily, I would tell you to put the dog in a separate room when the family arrives and to let it go at that. But you seem so vehement about not confining the dog that it makes no sense to sequester the animal away only to upset yourself. You won’t be of any benefit to the family if you are bothered and miserable. Because the family now seems to feel threatened by the dog when they come to visit, everyone needs to factor into the equation the fact that you have problems separating the dog from the rest of the household. Where it is your home and you are the homesteader, you get to call the shots. Perhaps you and the family need to come up with a creative plan for meeting in an alternative location.

Limited Time Exhibitions

My dog has every emotion that any of my other human children have, and separation anxiety and insecurity are two of them. So, I’m asking your professional opinion. Maybe this will convince the others once and for all that animal emotions are as real and important as human.

Dr ZZ: The most intelligent question you have asked is: “Who am I to interfere in their relationship?” Clearly, this is your friend’s girlfriend, not yours. You are obsessing on something that is none of your concern. Nothing positive can come of this level of codependence. Instead, you run the risk of demonizing your friend in order to convince yourself that you must have his girlfriend at any cost, that she deserves to be with you, that you will treat her better than he does, and that he isn’t good enough for her. Although your friend has never done anything to harm you, you will create reasons to dislike him in order to excuse the fact that you are coveting his girlfriend and planning to steal her from him.

of other people. I wish I could step in and tell him not to talk to her that way, but who am I to interfere in their relationship? I don’t think he deserves to be with her, and I know I would do anything to have her as my girlfriend. If that were to happen though, it would end a good friendship with him. What should I do about this?

Question: My husband, my family, and I are in an uproar over my sweet little dog. You see, she doesn’t like children. After being “loved on” for an hour by my 2 ½ year old niece, and after many warnings to my niece, the dog snapped at her and drew blood. It was minor, but since then, when my niece and her parents visit, I try to keep a close eye on the child. The problem is my husband and my family think I should confine the dog while they are here. My first response is, “Hogwash!” I will not do it. This is my house and my dog’s home. The others are guests. If my little one didn’t mind being locked in a room, I would have no problems with it, however, she screams and carries on because it hurts her feelings to be isolated from me. She is very much a “Momma’s girl.”

Your best strategy in this scenario is simply to detach. Promise yourself not to get involved with this woman unless she and your friend ever break up, and keep your mental, physical, emotional and spiritual hands in your own two pockets. Whatever goes on between the two of them is none of your business. Leave them alone, and let them be. Make any decisions you need to make to take care of yourself, but don’t make decisions to control your friends or anyone else. Start taking care of you, and free your friends to be who they are. If you have difficulty with this, you may need to get a bit of professional counseling. The objective of life is to set yourself free and to enjoy the ride. Stealing another person’s girlfriend is not the way to make that happen.

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.

Global Goings On........

Silly Season! December 2012

There are many events and celebrations that could be written about at this time of year but as it is the final column of Global Goings On, it seems appropriate to summarise a little and talk about the most widely celebrated time of year on the Gregorian calendar. The holiday season, culminating in Christmas and New Year! All over the world, as we have touched on over the last 12 months, thousands of greatly varying celebrations, festivals, rituals, commemorations, remembrances and more are observed by various nations, regions, political and religious groups and other such organisations. Some are little known to the wider global community and others are so far reaching they are at least heard of, even in the far corners of the earth. Events such as New Years Eve are recognised by the vast majority across the world, even if they are not formally observed where as events like Nyepi (Balinese New Year) are little known by people outside the island of Bali. The importance of each event rests with those who celebrate it, not how far reaching it is. C/Ns/G-19 Sept. 12

ve rti

Traditionally in the modern day and especially in the highly developed and commercialized regions of the world, December is the culmination of another year lived and experienced, as it builds up to Christmas, - for some a profoundly religious celebration and others a secular and commercial celebration on the calendar - and New Years Eve as the turning of a new leaf. As many schools and businesses wind down to a close for a few weeks over the new year period and people rush about to get loose ends squared away, gift shopping complete, Christmas menus finalized and vacations booked in, the vibe in the air is distinct. Particularly in western culture, it is impossible to ignore as the hype of it all builds on the streets and in the media. Following a year of hard work, the promise of some down time, holiday time, family time and the chance to start afresh in the new year is infectious.

Fortunately, this phenomenon does not go unnoticed nor unsupported as many organisations rev up their work at this time to raise funds and other goods to include and embrace those who do not have the means to participate in the way the media seems to dictate we must. It is always nice to spare a thought and a few dollars for those less fortunate than ourselves and there are plenty of opportunities to do so during this period.

Boxing Day tsunami December 26, 2004 On this day… the third largest recorded earthquake at 9.3 occurred off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It was unique because the quake itself lasted up to 10 minutes and moved the entire earth by centimetres and triggering a monster tsunami. Over 220,000 people were killed - a vast majority of those in Indonesia - when it wiped out populated coast line and islands across South East Asia. This was a natural disaster on the grandest of scales. Tsunami warning systems are now standard practice and were successfully implemented in the more recent Japanese tsunami.

On this day… the first ‘heavier than air’ craft flew for 12 seconds and covered 120 feet in North Carolina, America. Three more attempts on the same day saw it reach a 59 second flight covering 859 feet. Brothers and mechanical whizzes, Wilbur and Orville Wright had spent years researching, building and testing various aircraft leading to this day that saw modern day aviation born.

C/Ns/I-31 Oct 12

For the most part however, it is a joyful time of year when the majority seem to agree on sentiments of giving and sharing, reconnecting with family and friends and slowing down to ‘stop to smell the roses’.

First aeroplane flight December 17, 1903

Thankfully some keep their heads about them as regrettably, the feverish nature of all this giving and ‘joy’ often exacerbates the divide among the hopeful and the hopeless. Media coverage perpetuates the myth of happy families, abundance and peace as a given while the reality is quite the contrary for many living in poverty and disharmony. Indeed, it is often reported that this time of year records a high incidence of domestic violence, overdoses and suicides as despair intensifies in the face of so much ‘happiness’.

First Nobel Prizes awarded December 10, 1901 On this day, 5 years to the day after the death of Swedish inventor Alfred Bernhard Nobel and in accordance of his will for his bequeathed fortune, the inaugural Nobel Prize ceremony took place in Stockholm. These awards are known the world over as the most prestigious and coveted awards in each field including science, literature and peace efforts with many of histories most influential names among the winners.

Gift giving is a lovely pastime of us humans but it becomes utterly manic at this time of year! Retailers have a field day as marketing is pushed to soaring heights in the mercantile pursuit of the consumer dollar, pushing the notion of Christmas as a bonanza of presents and full bellies. Personal budgets are tossed and credit overloads loom as people let loose to spend outrageously on all the goodies required for a good time, presents, booze, food and holidays all at peak prices.

On this day…

Restaurants, pubs and bars are bursting with merrymakers as we overindulge in food and alcohol. End of year work functions are notorious for hook ups, bust ups and drunken shenanigans. Likewise, family gatherings may be full of merriment and gratefulness or erupt into monster barneys at this time. It is for these reasons and more that this time is fondly known as the ‘silly season’ as the giddiness spreads and people get carried away in all sorts of colourful ways.

For Bali, as a world class holiday destination, it will be inundated with holiday makers from all corners of the globe, particularly from Australia as it’s closest neighbour. All things Christmas can now be found at retailers across the island and many of the top restaurants will put on wonderful set lunches and dinners for guests, taking the work out of your hands and putting a cocktail in them instead! And why not? It’s so hot at this time of year to be slaving away at ovens and stoves and besides, traditional hot roast dinners don’t seem appropriate really! As they say, when in Rome (or tropical paradise islands)… why not enjoy an icy fruit cocktail with some sate instead?! New Years Eve too will be host to countless parties across the island as revelers let their hair down one last time in 2012 before launching into a new year of resolutions and goals. Whatever tickles your fancy, whether it be a night of drinking and dancing into the wee hours, a delectable 6 course luncheon matched with chilled wines or a climb up a volcano to watch the first sunrise of 2013, Bali can and will be catering for you. And so… as 2012 winds down to a close, all it’s milestones may now take their place in history for someone to write about in the future. Things like the 2012 Olympics held in London where many great sporting records were achieved, the face of professional cycling being changed forever as the profound drug scandal was exposed, the first black president for America, Barack Obama, being reelected into office for another 4 years, and most recently, the happy announcement of the impending arrival of a future heir for the British throne! So thank you Bali Advertiser readers for allowing this little column to share in your pages for the past year and thank you Bali for a wonderful few years, I hope to be back again one day soon. Happy New Year everyone! Onto the next chapter…

YEAR END WRAP

The Wrap of 2012

ve rti

The former back street of Jln. Sukma in Tebasaya, suddenly entered the restaurant scene with the arrival of Lezat [a mix of Dutch and local budget dishes], Warung Little India moving from Hanoman and Indotopia with its initial small Vietnamese offering beginning with some great entrees; Goi Cuon [fresh rice paper spring rolls] stuffed with prawns and minced chicken, Bahn Cuon a mix of chicken, mint and mushrooms rolled in a glutinuous rice crepe, are both excellent. Also the Cha Gio, the traditional Vietnamese deep-fried spring rolls that you roll in lettuce and mint then dip in the sauce.

Preview for 2013 - Mezze

In central Ubud [Jln.Goutomo] The Melting Wok was the overnight sensation, with daily queues for the small table space, their daily menu wok-produced dishes of that days fresh produce with a blend of France and Laos. Not far away a new large Indonesian restaurant is soon to open [where the 3 Brothers workshop used to be], no parking but plenty of walking traffic. Up on the main road Jakarta style coffee shop Anomali [one of Kerobokan’s surprising success stories of 2012] found Ubud a tougher nut to crack, probably not quite ready for either that $20 Wagyu Burger or Foie Gras on Toast for breakfast. Bali Deli has been threatening to open on Raya Ubud for a year now, maybe one day?

Amed saw the usual crop of new small warungs, many connected to new hotels most the size of a Bali homestay. The Griya is finally about to open with its all day dining café, downstairs night club and upstairs a high quality restaurant [with views across to Gili Trawangan], providing quite an uplift for this area! The flow on effect has already been enormous with old places now being renovated, swimming pools installed in those that did not previously have them and new projects planned by other non-locals. As long as Amed never loses its ‘local’ individuality then they should all sit well together. Candi Dasa followed the rush of new places in 2011 with a quiet year, Nau-Mai was star newbie, opened by Bendi who had set up and run Toke in the 90’s, then Candi’s most popular restaurant. Toke was Indian but Nau-Mai offers an International mix starting with a touch of Central Europe; German Prawn and Potato Timbale with chives and bacon pieces and a hearty Goulasch Soup. Mains include Chicken Parmigiana, Spare Ribs, Steaks and Lamb Chops, all those things the visiting tourist is looking for as well as a few local specials including Chilli Prawns and other local seafood dishes. Also new for Candi Dasa was the weirdly named Crazy Kangaroo, purely a tourist magnet. A large open space with many sections, and live music, it is Dutch owned and operated from the hotel across the road, Pondok Bambu. Ubud consolidated with a few closures and openings but with much new hotel activity, two are soon due to open in Pengosekan and one, The Westin at Lod Tundah, as well as a host of new small villa complexes. 2012 once again proved

The Three Monkeys made the trip from Ubud, housed in one of the most stylish restaurant designs of the area, their menu totally different to what is offered elsewhere in Sanur. Mezze with Fava, Skordalia, Houmus, Baba Ganoush and Roasted Beetroot dips. Lumpia Semarang [chicken and bamboo shoots], Salads are many [fried Halloumi cheese, asparagus and honeyed endive]. A refreshing Carpaccio of ginger-cured salmon. The Beef Sate is made using Wagyu, Mains include a slow cooked Lamb Curry, the meat cut from the shank. Lamb Kefte, middle-eastern style is with tomato/ mint salad. From the wood-fired oven comes Rack of Lamb, basted with Dijon, honey, orange juice and thyme. Chicken Thighs are in grain mustard and Pork Belly in a pomegranate glaze. The popular Kayumanis closed down, removed the home-stay at the rear and rebuilt a much larger restaurant to cater to their ever-growing customer base, with an air-con room at the rear. Kayumanis has long been one of Sanur’s quiet achievers. At the southern end Bali Deli finally arrived with a coffee shop downstairs and its restaurant, Le Spot, on the roof. Next door is Crema [replacing Spike’s] a small Italian coffee shop and unusual light meals; Unscrambled Eggs with pancakes and Italian sausage, a Muffuletta sandwich with mortadella, salami, mozzarella and provolone in Italian bread. Pasta can be pappardelle, penne, buccatinni or spaghetti.

The big moves were from Ryoshi who opened with very stylish Japanese design next to Bebek Bengil in Padang Tegal [fresh sushi and sashimi every day], and Queens of India opening their 3rd outlet [after Tuban and Tandjung Benoa] on Jln. Suweta [next to Ibu Oka], their star dish for me being their Chicken Tikka Makhanwala, tender chicken chunks in the most fragrant luscious curry sauce you can imagine, and one that is days in the preparation.

Sanur is, as always, a battle! The geographical shape of Sanur, a narrow band spread along the coast, creates many small local areas with no one centre of activity, so a place must be very special for people to travel. Yamayuri took over from what once was the Lotus Garden and tried to introduce Japanese fine dining, a series of small dishes of varied and sometimes very unusual ingredients.

On Danau Poso is another strange newcomer, Au Bon Marche has to be Bali’s most unusual restaurant. Its décor is a vibrant white and blue, its menu minimal ‘bought fresh from the market that morning’. Only two salads [maybe Pomelo & Papaya and a Feta Salad] and two mains [possibly Tuna a la Provence and Prawns in Mango Curry] finishing with just one dessert option [a chocolate mousse, ‘fresh from the market’??].

The pick of the north this year was Darcy’s the new beachfront restaurant at The Dolphin Beach luxury apartments on Jln. Seririt, on the western outskirts of Lovina, in Bali’s north. Simple basic food at budget prices. Appetiser, the ever popular Prawn and Avocado Cocktail. Pasta can be with meat, seafood or pure vegetarian. Mains can be Beef Steak or Chicken many different ways; Japanese teriyaki, Indian tandoori, Chinese lemon honey, Italian Valdostana [mozzarella and tomato salsa] or an International Chicken and Mushrooms.

Up on the hill that is Penestenan, Café Mendez [with its goat specials] and Bayu have been joined by a few new places; Alchemy is all health and goodness with its colonic diets and ‘treatments’ and Warung Sharaswaty offers Vegetarian Indian cuisine at very budget oprices. The bread and pastry shop Kue opened a 2nd outlet after its long time presence in Taman. More places are about to open.

The north of Bali is fairly stagnant as it has been for many years although one major new beachfront restaurant is under construction in Kalibukbuk, Spice Beach Club. By the rumours circulating it sounds like a cross between a Johnny Rockets [table disc box selectors] and a small ‘ku de ta’!

Do you remember Bali of the 90’s? It is a cause for constant amazement at the ever increasing range of quality restaurants now by comparison with that era, in almost every area, covering so many different cuisines, and at all levels of the pricing yardstick. Without doubt Bali now offers the greatest range of ethnic cuisines in Asia, almost on a par with multi-cultural Sydney.

its place, a very modern and stylish structure with ample off street parking. At the front is a café and bakery offering a range of local pastries and breads, and coffee any way you want it. Behind, in three garden warisans, is the restaurant proper. It is an upmarket Indonesian warung offering all the usual things such as Fish Head Soup as well as the popular Oxtail [Sop Buntut]. Oxtail can also be ordered as a plate of small crispy deep-fried chunks or Bakar, simply grilled.

tis er

what a difficult market Ubud is? Big Names Café Moka [now a keyhole operation at the Bintang supermarket complex] moved, floundered and moved again. The impressive Dijon arrived in Sanggingan but like all before it struggled to make its mark though offering high quality and good value, Kopi Bali House [packed every day in Sanur] tries to emulate that success at the quiet end of Monkey Forest. Almost opposite, Sarpino’s from Legian opened, attempting to invade the ever-growing Ubud pizza market. Another entrant was Mama Mia in Pengosekan and early in its life played to packed houses. Go Fast came and went fast, replaced by Eve’s giving us some ethnic dishes from Manado.

2012 was no different to those of recent years. An unbelievable number of new restaurants were opened all across Bali. Many were instant successes, some will take time and many will never work, in fact a few have not even lasted the year out, and have already gone.

Il Pomodoro breaks the tradition and brings quality foreign cuisine to a non tourist part of Bali, for the first time. It offers Italian food in a large pleasant air-conditioned restaurant north-west of Denpasar on Gatot Subroto Barat. Plenty of off-street parking and pleasant young waitstaff add to the experience of good food at not much more than warung prices.

Out on The Bypass Koki returned, still Korean but now with a smart renovation. The menu includes old standards such as Bulgogi, marinated beef cooked at your table. Start with Korean dumplings fried or boiled, stuffed with minced beef or a Pajeon Kimchi Jeon, what the Koreans call a Korean pancake but is really a Korean omelette, stuffed with chilli kim chi.

The Renon area of Denpasar continues to be the budget eating area of Bali. Whilst it is predominantly local food for locals the gradual move upscale, with both local and international offerings, is making it an area to take seriously. Now with about 100 restaurants and warungs spread around the loop there were many additions of note. Warung Tekko opened full after a major renovation at the site of the failed OZIGO, with their ‘famous’ Ribs claiming to offer 600gm of BBQ Back Ribs of imported US Angus beef [Konro Bakar Saus Madu] for Rp,49,000, which really made you wonder? Not long after the place was going through another renovation? Warung Bendega has been a fixture on the corner of Cok Agung Tresna and Jayagiri in Renon for many years. It has recently been demolished and a whole new complex built in

another Korean restaurant. Initially it was called Han Il [after a move from its long time base closer to Kuta also on The ByPass] but later changed its name to Arirang, a small front terrace with air-con room behind. Best dish is their Jok Bal, an incredibly large serve of de-boned pork hocks, cooked in soy and spices, amazingly tender chunks of meat.

perfectly with the appetites of the mainly Australian tourists of this area. Some never get it right, the major requirement in Bali is a consistent quality of recognizable dishes at reasonable prices, served with that Bali smile. Bamboo got it right!

at Spavodka, a large complex hidden behind walls with no outside signage. With ceiling to floor glass as a kitchen wall its design was startling and for a short time became the weekend party venue. They wanted to keep it secret, and in that they succeeded. Now they want to be noticed and are about to move to Jln. Kerobokan, opening their Lobster Bar.

Best Value New Restaurant - Bamboo

Best New Cheapie - Betelnut Cafe

Big news in the Kuta area was to finally have something worthwhile along Kuta beach. Now we have Beachwalk, a sprawling modern shopping centre housing up-market boutiques and a host of restaurants that include many franchises from the USA and a few local gems such as Sardinia Café [under same management as Cocoon] where the budget prices and good quality see it busy day and night…$5 for a decent Eggs Benedict overlooking Kuta beach, no wonder they flock here. Kitchenette, Johnny Rockets, Tony Roma Ribs and Nanny’s are amongst the others on offer here.

What happens in 2013? There will be even more activity than 2012 if all the plans and rumours come about. Bali Deli still to open in Ubud, much delayed. That man Marinos will be back with his Mezze Greek Gourmet Café, just behind Ultimo in Kerobokan. He has always been a man with his finger on the pulse, each new business starting a craze followed by others [that little Mykonos Taverna 13 years ago started the rush to Laksmana and the creation of Eat Street]. This time it is an offering of ‘small plates’, entrée size, a bit more than just tapas. Many different tastes, the way I like to eat.

Further still north along The ByPass is one of the finds of the year, the French café La Tartine offering tartines [open sandwiches] of which my favourite is Spicy Bread topped with shaved ham and ricotta, on the side a green salad with seed mustard dressing. On the other side of the road is the latest Café Moka, this time serving Illy, and the modern trend with special smoking area at the front.

Best New Restaurants - 2012

Best Restaurant

Best Value

Meads - Tandjung Benoa Bali is famous for seafood but at Mead’s you actually taste the fish, perfectly cooked, not covered with sauces that detract, overpowering the delicate natural taste Bamboo - Tuban Simple cuisine with consistent quality at the right price. Exactly want they want in this centre of Bali’s tourism. Good value steaks and many seafood options.

Best Cafe

La Tartine - Sanur a quaint café, very French with tartines [open sandwiches] cocottes [eggs steamed in a glass] and organic salads

Best Balinese

Surya - Sanur Balinese cuisine at its best! Babi Guling and Betutu [both ayam and bebek] processed on the premises via a hygienic kitchen, very professional.

Best Cheapie

Betelnut Cafe - Canggu Located in the new restaurant area of Bali where there are still rice paddies between the villas. A funky simple design which suits both the food, and the clientele. Salads, big breakfasts, Mexican and local. The surfing chef catering for the surfers.

Best New Restaurant - Mead’s

Jimbaran awaits the new fine dining Sundara restaurant at Four Seasons, replacing PJ’s which in the 90’s was considered by many to be Bali’s top restaurant, Tuban was stagnant apart from an updated Ryoshi, now more open to the passing foot traffic, and across the road Bamboo, which was an instant success with its simple offerings that fitted

Even Australia, the origin of 40% of Bali’s International traffic, finally gets into the act with major hotel management group Mantra opening their first Bali hotel, and the 1st outside of Australia and New Zealand, in Nusa Dua next month [and their Peppers chain in Kuta, Lombok later in 2013]. In a smart move the exec staff are Bali experienced being ex Conrad Bali, with the Conrad’s opening exec chef Gary Rosen returning to Bali as General Manager of the new Mantra.

Nothing much new in Nusa Dua apart from The Bay project [next to The Grand Hyatt] which houses a Bebek Bengil outlet, as well as Thai and Japanese options, but it is all about to happen in 2013 with so many new 4 and 5 star hotels opening. Tandjung Benoa continues to introduce many new ‘International’ restaurants under local management as all the new hotels open and house more and more tourists. Amongst them however were a few gems, Sate Bali brought true Balinese cuisine to the area and Queens of India did the same for Indian cuisine. Way down the end, past Ramada Benoa, was one of the finds of the year, Mead’s. Think Bali and everyone thinks Seafood! Sadly much of the seafood served, from beachfront to 5 star hotel kitchens, is overcooked and dry or worse still soggy from the defrosting. Not at Mead’s where owner Warren Mead does it the same way as he has for years in hometown Perth, Australia. Fresh fillets dipped in an egg wash and lightly pan-fried served with a dash of lemon…perfect!.

Canggu is now becoming the go-to area with many interesting new places. La Creperie moved from Batubelig, with its French savory galettes, across the road is a budget French restaurant Joli. The Plumber’s Arms is a small English Pub with its Ploughman’s Lunch and big breakfasts. In the middle of the rice paddies, on the way to Canggu beach, is Betelnut Café, once again proving that basic food of a consistent quality at budget prices is a winner…busy since opening day, great value! The strangest opening for 2012 was that of the Russian Oazia

The Sea Sentosa project at Echo Beach is now scheduled for opening in 2013, supposedly will have 5 restaurants, some beachfront. The monster Mulia at Nusa Dua, also with 5 restaurants, a new Sheraton Hotel at Beachwalk Kuta, a new Intercontinental, the return of Ritz Carlton and more restaurants at the Double Six Apartment Complex on Legian beach. New hotels Marrriot, Regent, Shangri-La, Westin and many others both local and international as well as hundreds of new villa complexes are all due to open in 2013!

Soon will be the big test for the area…. a Singapore invasion with Serenity. The original restaurant is a 300 seater in Vivo City on Singapore’s Harbourside. Spanish tapas are their specialty, and hopefully they will also serve that wonderful Spanish version of Suckling Pig in Bali as they do in Singapore.

Kerobokan slowed down at last with most new places seemingly destined for a short life except for Petitenget [where Tebu once was], with chef Simon Blaby in the kitchen it soon became the perfect spot for an elegant breakfast or daytime coffee and snack. Anomali brought big city coffee house style to tourist Bali, an much to my surprise it worked!

With so many hotels and villa complexes under construction and due to open, all with one or more restaurants the problem of oversupply becomes a reality.

restaurants, have failed before them are two newcomers. The dual named Surya [traditional Balinese with on-premises prepared Babi Guling and Betutu, both Ayam and Bebek] and the upstairs dining for Warung Kayu Api that combines both the Balinese options and a range of International, with relaxing views across the greens of the Sanur golf course.

Seminyak dining was highlighted by the move of the Swiss Lestari from Umulas to Drupadi, wonderful pasta and perfect Fondues where Sorriso once was. Mannekepis had a change of management from Belgian to Finnish combining the most popular dishes from the earlier Mannekepis and the now demolished Rio.

Casablanca opened in a renovated house, supposedly Cuban, another ‘theme’ restaurant that appears to be chasing the late night live music and drinks crowd. Elsewhere in Sanur was a sea of new but stereotyped Bali International restaurants that all look the same and all have the same menus even with the same food pics out front.

Jasmine Cutting

still be trying to establish roots. In the early stages the cutting will still be fragile so don’t plan on moving it too soon. When a cutting strikes it will still have a very small root system and will not be able to absorb enough water to sustain a plant in the full sun. A big mistake would be to move a new cutting into the full sun, as this would quickly and easily kill it from dehydration. Keep the plant well watered until it has a solid root system. By this time it should resemble a small bush with lots of new growth and at his stage you can move it, remember to always ease it into a sunnier position over a period of time. Growing them to a larger size before transplanting to a permanent location will increase the chances for survival.

Avoid material with flower buds if possible. Remove any flowers and buds when preparing, so the cutting can put all its energy into producing new roots rather than flowers. The base of the cutting and the leaf nodes are where the new roots will grow. Make a diagonal cut at the base, this will increase the surface area of the rooting area in contact with the soil that can suck up water, and therefore increase the chances of success. Take more than one cutting. It’s a good idea to take five or ten at a time, because not all will succeed in striking roots, plan for a 50 % failure rate, so make double the amount that you will need. The cutting is the easy part the hard part is keeping them alive. You can start your jasmine cuttings in a pot with a soil and compost that holds moisture well. Alternatively you can start them directly in the ground. Make a hole with a little stick, insert the cutting to half its length and fill the sides of the hole in with soil. If the cuttings are outdoors, you also have to protect them from heat and sun. Given ample moisture and the right care your cutting will ‘strike’ roots. Once this has occurred, the new plant will start to produce growth. Keep the cuttings in a cool place under diffused light or shade, or even in the bathroom. Keep the soil moist, the roots will strike from the base area where you cut the plant and fresh cuttings will never tolerate a dry soil. Generally it could take from one week to one month for a plant to strike, sometimes longer. As long as the stick hasn’t shriveled up and died, it may

C/Ho/G-5 Sept. 12

If you take cuttings from the base area they would be more likely hardwood cuttings and probably more difficult to establish. Take your cutting preferably from the upper areas of the plant. Simply make a base cut just below a leaf node. Cut a piece off to a length of about 15cm. Remove the bottom leaves at the nodes on the stem so that there are just a few pairs left at the top. You should be left with something that resembles a stick with a few leaves. The reason you remove much of the foliage is because moisture is lost from leaves during the rooting process. Excess leaves will die away, and also endanger the success of the cutting. You need just enough foliage to enable photosynthesis without compromising moisture loss, remember at this stage the plant has no roots, and will just be drawing on whatever moisture it can though the cut base.

Gardeners have all sorts of tips and tricks on how to increase the ‘strike’ rate of cuttings. There are hormone powders that you can buy to help the roots establish. You simply take your cutting, dip the cut end in the ‘rooting hormone’ powder then pop it in the ground. Or easier still, you can just use honey. There are enzymes in it that help promote root growth in plant cuttings. The honey has trace amounts of the necessary minerals, vitamins as well as anti-bacterial anti-fungal properties. You can simply dip the cut end directly into some honey or you can make a simple honey rooting hormone mixture that many professional gardeners use.

www.moessongallery.com

1) boil 1 cup of water 2) add 1 tablespoon of honey 3) Let mixture cool then put in an airtight container 4) Store in the dark, dip cuttings in as needed and plant straight away.

This is a general guide to taking cuttings from most plants, but for some varieties other techniques such as leaf cuttings or layering may be more productive. Layering involves pushing a long stem into the soil and then waiting a few weeks to snip it off from the main plant. A leaf cutting is simply a leaf cut and placed in the soil.

Growing a jasmine from cutting should be a fairly simple process that requires patience more than anything else. It is important to collect cuttings from the healthiest parts of the healthiest plants. For a beginners guide I would look for the newer shoots that are still softwood, at the tips of the plant. It should be possible to get a new plant growing from a jasmine cutting, the resulting plant would be referred to as a ‘clone’ because it would be genetically the same as the parent plant from which it came, and of the same age.

‘Hi Kris, I am hoping you have some advice for me. There is a gorgeous old jasmine bush next door to me, the ‘trunk’ is almost like a small tree size and I would love to take a cutting and plant in my garden but there are no roots visible, just lots of full leaf shoots growing off the stalk. The question is can one just cut from the stalk and plant, or does it have to root first? I have a gardener friend that tells me he has tried many times to do this and has failed any ideas? Cheers, Martina’

General Care Jasmines grow well in moist, well drained sandy to clay garden soil. They prefer full sun to partial shade, and do well in tropical / sub-tropical climates. Jasmine can be used in a variety of ways as climbers, groundcovers, shrubs, or indoor plants. They will grow well in a sunny or shaded position, and are quite drought tolerant once established. Some interesting facts about Jasmine The Jasmine is native to tropical and temperate regions of the world. Jasmine sambac or Sacred Jasmine is the national flower of Indonesia known as melati putih. It is often used in official ceremonies, and is also a very popular flower around the world. Jasmine tea is also famous among herbal tea enthusiasts, having its origins in China. The Jasmine essential oil, extracted from the two species Jasminum officinale and grandiflorum, is used in perfumes, cosmetics, oils and shampoos.

“Who Hung Moaning Lisa”

Joe The Bangli Ratcatcher would also not know much about sand. Sand makes up the major component in cement for render and for mortar. Sand is, of course, made up of small particles of rock, a fact that is fairly obvious to us but not necessarily to an erstwhile hunter of small rodents.

C/BM/I-17 Oct 12

If you buy sand from Mr Dodgy Building Products Limited (and of course the word Limited refers to the quality of his products which in turn is a result of his limited liability status which means he doesn’t have to take responsibility for anything he might sell you) then it may well be that the “sand” has rather a lot of mud or clay particles in it and you have a problem.

ve rti

Buildings are heavy things, funny that. In the months or even years after you have been piling up rocks, concrete, steel, tiles and wood on a piece of land the ground might be feeling a bit overloaded and it may have a distinct tendency to settle a bit. This settlement may cause cracks in that pile of masonry you call a building and these often appear in non structural parts of the building particularly through walls. Movement is usually minor and cracks are normally “hairline” - very fine cracks that may run in any direction (horizontally, vertically or diagonally across the wall). Cracks may be visible on both sides of walls. To repair settlement cracks simply fill them and paint over.

If the cement render on your walls has cracked this is because it has shrunk as it set. Normally this shouldn’t happen however if your tukang in his real job is a rat catcher from Bangli then he perhaps would not know that, once in place, cement should be kept cool and damp so it can cure and dry out slowly.

1. Building Settlement

Let us look at some other causes of cracks in walls.

soft, they use a thin layer of cement “render” which is made by mixing water, sand and cement and is usually harder than Arnold Schwarzenegger’s head. Try banging a nail into your wall to hang “Moaning Lisa,” that masterpiece created by Komang Da Vinci of Sukawati, and you will soon know what I mean.

phone fax email

“Why have I got cracks in my walls?” he said. “An interesting question and one that has been occupying my mind for some considerable time” I said. “It is my considered opinion that you have a rather serious dose of Cerebellum Flaggelitis.” “Will it spread to other walls.” “Oh no, it is not in the wall, it is all in your mind, or rather out of your mind.” “In my mind, but where does it come from?” “It has been traced back to a little known genus of microbe called stapholoccockup oral that lives in the frontal lobe of the cortex frustratis. It was first discovered among the staff at the Whitehouse while George W. was there, they say that when Obama moved in they had to have all the walls repaired. It is quite common in Indonesia particularly among expatriates who come here with the rather ludicrous notion that they can “improve” things whatever that might mean. “Is there anything I can do for it?” “You could wear a wooly hat, that would cause far less damage to the wall.”

So how do you test your tukang’s sand to make sure it doesn’t have mud or clay in it? Find a tall slender glass. Put some of the sand in the glass then add water. If the sand is all rock you will find the level of the sand doesn’t alter as the water is added. If there is mud in the sand it will absorb water and swell and the level of the sand will rise. You will also find that the water turns muddy.

Minor cracks are usually nothing to worry about but larger cracks may suggest building failure. Have a look to see if cracks go right through walls. Check if there are cracks or movement in your floors, this may suggest foundation damage. These sort of cracks can be serious and may damage the structural integrity of the building particularly if they go through or near structural columns or beams. Remember that if the house is weakened in this way the house has lost a lot of its ability to resist an earthquake. Care is needed and if in doubt you should call someone who knows what they are doing and that you trust. Building structural repairs require specialist design and execution and is a subject little understood here in Indonesia. Failures usually start from the foundations and, as you can imagine, repairing foundations requires both expertise and experience. 3. Cracks where electrical cables and air conditioner pipes have been installed in the wall. When electrical cables and air conditioner pipes are installed in walls channels are chiselled out of the wall, the cables and pipes are installed and the channels refilled with cement. If installed badly cracks can form where the channels have been cut. These usually run vertically down the wall from the ceiling to electrical switches and sockets. These cracks do not affect the structural strength of the building. To repair cracks they should be widened a little then filled with a cement rich filler. 4. Cracks in the surface plaster on the wall. Many buildings in Indonesia suffer from “crazed” walls. I recently saw a local health clinic building, only a year old, and inside every wall was covered with cracks like large crazy paving. It can look very worrying but this form of cracking is usually only the skim of plaster on the surface of the wall. The first thing to know is that throughout Indonesia internal walls are not plastered in the way that walls in Western countries are. Here they don’t use plaster which is relatively

tis er

OK so you have crazy paving walls, what can you do about it?

If you suspect there has been ground movement have a good look around. Has the house been built on a former rice field? Has there been a landslide nearby, has a river nearby eroded and destabilised the ground or has some idiot started excavating the land next door? These are all fairly common threats to buildings in Bali.

The shape of the sand particles also makes a difference. The best sand for building is “sharp” sand where the individual particles have sharp angular shapes. This helps the particles to key together within the cement. If you look at beach sand you will find the particles are rounded, like small pebbles. This is round sand and comes a poor second for building purposes. Beach sand also has a problem in that it has salt in it which can encourage damaging corrosion in steel reinforcing bars.

C/BM/I-12 Dec 12

The first thing to do is to check the stiction (that’s a good word isn’t it) between the render and the body of the wall, to do this tap the walls with your knuckles to see of the cement render is loose. If it sounds hollow then you will know that the render has come away from the wall behind. In this case you will have to remove the cement render and replace it (sorry).

Earthquakes are another matter and can cause the sort of cracks that are larger than your walls. Be grateful if you still have walls.

If you find that Joe The Ratcatcher has bought sand with mud or clay in it there is something you can do to get rid of the mud. Use a cement mixer to wash the sand several times in water. The mud or clay will dissolve in the water leaving much cleaner sand.

If the cement render is solid and is still well adhered to the wall then you can simply fill the cracks and repaint the wall. Remember the render is only for appearance and so, as long as it is not going to fall off when little Jimmy wants to play football in the living room or granny throws a pan at you, it will be alright.

If Billy Smart’s circus goes past and they have rather a lot of elephants or if the earth moves for the lady next door then these may well cause cracks in your walls. If you have the unfortunate but predictable experience of having a wonderful neighbour who suddenly decides one day to build a 3 storey apartment building on the 2 are block next to yours the enormous weight is likely to compress the ground and may cause some rather severe cracks in your house as a couple of people I know can testify.

2. Movement of the Building

As the cement render is mixed the clay or mud in the sand soaks up water and, unlike rock, swells when it gets wet. You apply the cement render to the wall and as it cures and dries out the mud or clay shrinks and you end up with cracks all over your beautiful wall.

In external situations cement render often cracks away from the wall beneath as a result of expansion and contraction due to exposure to the sun. It is important that when the cement is applied to the wall the cement mix is correct and that the surface it is being applied to is clean, free of dust and is rough so the render can “key” onto it. As it is applied the cement needs to make very good contact with the wall behind without air gaps. Good plasterers usually wet the wall first then “work” the plaster onto the wall to make sure it keys properly. With the advent of plaster board real plasterers are a dying breed I’m afraid.

C/BM/G-17 Oct. 12

If the cohesion between the cement render and the wall is poor then the heat from the sun will tend to heat the surface render to a higher temperature than the solid wall beneath, the render will expand more than the cooler wall and will break loose. If you see telltale cracks in those beautiful cement finished surfaces on the outside of your house once again you can tap the walls to see if the render is loose. If it is loose it is probably time to put on your wooly hat. Phil Wilson Opinions expressed are those of Phil Wilson.

Christian Outposts in a Hindu Sea By Bill Dalton

The Forbidden Religion The earliest mention of Christianity on Bali is a letter written on lontar palm leaf in 1635 which the king of Klungkung sent to the Portuguese in Malaka inviting priests to Bali so that “…whosoever wishes may embrace the Christian religion.” There is no historical record of what happened to the two priests who were dispatched from Malaka to Bali the same year. In the 19th century the new religion got off to a bad start. The Dutch brooked no interference in the well-integrated religious life of the natives, who oftentimes opposed - sometimes violently Christian proselytizing. In 1865, the very first missionaries on Bali, the Protestant pastors R.V. Onech and Y de Vroom, arrived to study the Balinese language and culture and do a little evangelizing on the side. In 1881 Y de Vroom was murdered for reasons unknown. In the ensuing years the East Indies government banned missionaries. Even after the colonialists conquered south Bali in 1908, officials barred missionary activity until the late 1920s when the government began to relax its hands-off policy. In 1921, the legendary Father Simon Bois from the Netherlands approached the Governor General in Batavia for permission to set up Hollandsch Inlandsch schools in Denpasar and Gianyar. Because of Father Bois’s deep understanding of Balinese culture and customary law, he spent many years on Bali doing humanitarian work.

Built in 1982, there was again the familiar kulkul alarm tower common to all of Bali’s Christian churches. Christian houses of worship bear more resemblance to Balinese temples than they do churches, except that angels, not demons, guard them. On an island where the dominant Hindu faith is followed by more than 93% of the indigenous population, B a l i ’ s Christian communities incorporate almost all of the island’s rich traditions of music, dress, ceremony, performing arts and architecture. In the courtyard lining the inside wall behind the Hindu-style split gate (gapura) were a series of stone carved bas-reliefs depicting biblical scenes - Jesus whipped on the way to The Cross, the crucifixion and other Christian parables. Hindu cultural celebrations were merely reinterpreted and then adopted. Stories from the Old Testament are dramatized through Balinese-style dance; the characters portrayed originating from the Old Testament instead of the Ramayana or Mahabharata Hindu epics. Hymns are sung to gamelan accompaniment. Clergymen and parishioners alike wear white shirts, udeg headwear, kebaya blouses, colorful sashes and traditional

I walked past a group from Surabaya who were posing for a photograph on the steps of Palasari’s impressive church which was designed by a Dutch priest and two Balinese architects. In 1954, a hill in the area was leveled and construction on the unusual edifice started in 1955. The church was inaugurated in December 1958. This imposing place of worship - a curious mix of Gothic and Balinese architecture and decorative elements – is called the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (Hati Kudus). With its graceful Balinese lines, high sweeping roof and three distinct tiers representing the island’s mountains, Christian congregations from all over Bali consider this striking cathedral as their “Navel Church.” Villa Blimbingsari “Village Homestay” I pulled my car into the narrow parking lot and climbed up a hillside path through a leafy garden past a water slide and swimming pool to Villa Blimbingsari at the top, which had the appearance of a church. I was seeking an old friend whom I first met at the Orchid Garden Cottage in Legian during my guidebook writing days 20 years ago.

At the quiet downtown intersection, not a soul or motorbike was to be seen anywhere. On the left the ornate Gereja Kristen Protestan Di Bali (Protestant Christian Church of Bali) was an elaborate a building as any you’d see on Bali. The most distinguishing features were the façade and crosses on top.

In Holland, missionary groups protested that an American fundamentalist church had been allowed to establish itself on Balinese soil. Under pressure, the resident allowed Netherlandsbased Protestant and Catholic churches wider access to Bali. By the mid-1930s, several hundred converts had been exiled from their own villages to pockets all over Bali. The first Protestant church was built in Karangasem in 1931.

I was only one of a small number of domestic and Western tourists visiting that Sunday. Dioceses of Catholic parishioners from Nusa Tenggara (eastern Indonesia) are also frequent visitors. At times thousands of students from missionary outreach programs fill the adjacent football field with tents like a gigantic scout jamboree.

I Ketut Suyaga Job, born in 1944, graduated from the School of Theology in Yogyakarta in 1971, ordained in 1973 and earned a Diploma of Theology from the United Theological College in Sydney in 1976. He served as General Secretary of the Synod of the Protestant Church in Bali (GKPB) for a total of 8 years in the 1970s and 1980s, then returned for another stint in that office from 1992 to 2000.

Snoozing in the afternoon sun, the town was so eerily quiet that the atmosphere reminded me of my childhood in a small affluent bedroom community west of Boston where New England’s puritan Blue Laws were strictly enforced with no lawn mowing, fixing of roofs or sweeping of sidewalks allowed on Sunday.

With the tacit consent of the Dutch Resident, a Chinese missionary named Tsang To Hang was sent to Bali in 1929 by the American Christian and Missionary Alliance to work among the Balinese Chinese. He promised the Balinese freedom from taxes and corvée work gangs if they converted. By the early 1930s, a period of worldwide economic recession on Bali, Tsang To Hang began winning converts, first among the Balinese wives of the Chinese, then among ethnic Balinese of the poor lower castes.

The swelling numbers of new Christians soon caused unemployment and housing problems in Denpasar. In 1939, to relieve tensions between Christians and Hindu Balinese, Christian agricultural communities were constructed in a part of Bali nobody wanted - the sparsely populated Melayu Subdistrict of western Bali, 25 km northwest of Negara. From 1940 to 1942, 200 hectares of land carpeted with dense forests was given to the Catholic Church by the government. It was assumed that the exiles would not survive.

Bordering the West Bali National Park in the heart of Jembrana Regency, the region has undergone a metamorphosis since the days when it was known as “Alas Rangda” or “Place of the King of Evil.” At one time the backbone of the community’s wealth was built on cocoa and coconuts, but today its rice production is among the highest in Bali. Vanilla, coffee and nutmeg are also cultivated in the surrounding countryside.

The splashes of hot pink, orange and violet bougainvillea, mango trees bearing fruit as big as footballs, neat houses with b r i c k w o r k forming a cross above the doors, close-cropped grass lawns and the well-trimmed streets lined with groves of coconut trees seemed to exemplify the Christian ideal of cleanliness next to godliness.

The parish of 700 people conducts mass, as well as songs and prayers, in the Balinese language and typical Bali Hindu temple decorations, paraphernalia and formal costume are seen during the holy days. Being promoted as a Catholic religious center, tourism brings both financial and spiritual benefits to the community.

Four kilometers further north, after making a series of perpendicular turns, we entered the village of Blimbingsari (population 1,900). Hacked out of the jungle in the form of a cross in 1939, today this sprawling community is one of the best kept on the island.

We were headed to Bali’s two Christian communities, Blimbingsari and Palasari area of West Bali. At the first church we came across – embodying a touch of the Orient in its three cross-topped steeples - the gate was locked, the adjoining kulkul tower quiet and all the parishioners had long gone home.

The Lord’s Day of rest is not taken lightly in this part of Bali. As we hurried along the empty country road northeast of Melaya in the hopes of catching a Sunday church service, not a single member of His Flock of Bali’s approximately 20,000 Christians was visible on the road or in the yards.

Construction began on the village of Palasari (pala/forest, sari/ essence). Initially, 18 families settled the land and built a makeshift church. Many returned to their villages because of the harsh living conditions and wild animals that inhabited the area. The new settlers eventually became farmers, selling coconuts, nutmeg and cocoa, and opening hotels and other businesses around Melaya. The eventual success of their agricultural endeavors attracted more people from the surroundings and prompted the Raja of Jembrana to grant the community an additional 200 hectares. During the Japanese occupation from 1942 to 1945, Father Bois was arrested and incarcerated in Singaraja. When he returned to Palasari after the war, the village had grown rapidly. In 1947 he and his assistants helped combat a major outbreak of malaria. In 1951, on a visit to his homeland, Father Bois passed away, but his dream of establishing a permanent Catholic community in rural Bali had been realized. A Model of Religious Tolerance We traveled 3 kilometers to the southeast via a circuitous route through rice fields and forests towards the Catholic community in Palasari. We got lost several times and people cheerfully pointed the way, smiling and waving from their terraces. The village, consisting of three all Catholic banjar with total population 1,700, has manicured streets, a large school, vocational training center,

At these homestay-style accommodations, guests take part in the authentic daily life of the village. Finding no one about, I called out and soon Putu Cahya Herani Job appeared half-asleep at a window above, asking “Don’t I know you?” The good reverend hurriedly dressed and came down to chat with me in the living room. As he and his wife had to leave soon for a funeral, our meeting was warm but brief and I was left alone in the garden. But before heading out for the long hot two-hour drive back to Tabanan and returning to my relentlessly secular, fast-paced and plugged-in world, I savored for a little while longer the quiet dignity of the day. Spending the Sabbath in Blimbingsari must surely be what God really means by a “day of rest.” Practicalities There are a few homestays in Blimbingsari, but the best place to stay is Villa Blimbingsari (tel. 0365-43826, hp 081-138-8126) with rooms for Rp150,000-Rp200,000.

Local News Suppressing Mother-to-Child Transmissions Key to Tackling AIDS

Leonardi said the Health Ministry was developing a plan to prevent the transmission of HIV from parents to children. “What that means is HIV testing and counseling will be offered routinely to pregnant women in antenatal care centers in high-prevalence districts,” she said.

While there is currently no cure for HIV or AIDS, antiretroviral drugs are capable of suppressing the virus and stop the progression of the disease, hugely reducing the rate of death and suffering, particularly in the earlier stages of the infection. Unicef estimates that only around 15 percent of the 11,600 Indonesian children who need ARV treatment are receiving it.

“If [the mother is (HIV) positive, they will be provided with treatment, counseling on infant feeding and the transmission risks from the mother to child could be reduced to less than 5 percent.”

Leonardi said that in addition to ARV medication, the best support for children affected by HIV came from targeting entire family units. She cited as an example the Social Affairs Ministry’s decision in 2011 to add a staple food program for 1,500 families who were part of the government’s existing HIV support program.

The government’s move is supported by Unicef, with the global headquarters of the agency saying on Wednesday (28/11) that preventing HIV in children should be a priority in the fight against AIDS.

“Programs targeting children living with HIV should not neglect their carers’ health and economic needs, and testing and treatment services for adults should consider the needs of their children,” Leonardi said. (December 1st 2012)

In parts of the archipelago, housewives top prostitutes in new HIV cases. Here’s a statistic that begs an explanation from married Indonesian men: housewives in parts of the island nation now outnumber prostitutes when it comes to new cases of HIV. Those are the latest findings from the Surabaya Aids Prevention Commission, which monitors the spread of HIV in Indonesia. According to the Bernama news outlet, the commission states that a full 60 percent of new HIV cases in populous Bogor, West Java, are housewives. The same report notes that the disease’s spread among sex workers is leveling out. The commission encourages all pregnant women to take HIV tests but, however less than one in ten consent and “those who tested positive became hysterical and immediately pointed their fingers at their husbands.” Husbands who criss-cross provinces for work - and spend long stints away from home - are seen by the commission as some of the top culprits. But as long as Indonesians read headlines about children getting expelled for having HIV-positive dads, and HIV-positive couples are run out of villages, it will be hard to convince many women that their communities will still embrace them even if they’re infected with HIV by

philandering husbands.

In 2005, it announced the sale of its operations in Japan and Mexico, followed by its stores in South Korea a year later, then Russia in 2009, and Thailand in 2010. In China, however the business has continued to boom, it said. Thierry Garnier, president and CEO of Carrefour SA China said earlier this month the company plans to invest in more stores in China and expand its food sales. By April 2012, the retailer, which entered the Chinese mainland in 1995, had 206 stores in 64 cities.

Wing Handoko said Samuel was being questioned by local military police. Atmaja, who was a guard of an ammunition storehouse in Belayu village in Tabanan, was allegedly killed after a fight with Samuel.

“Unfortunately the prediction is true. If all men that go to commercial sex workers don’t want to use condoms, there will be many cases of infections per year,” Nafsiah Mboi said. Indonesia spends $65 million per year to treat those living with HIV/AIDS, but experts predict it could spend $220 million per year on HIV/AIDS drugs by 2020.

The fight took place after the two soldiers visited a cafe in another village, where they hung out with two girls. Witnesses reported seeing the men quarreling before they

Nafsiah said that several countries such as Thailand, India and Cambodia had successfully curbed new infection rates because of their open campaigns on condom use among high-risk groups.

This risky behavior has resulted in a growing number of housewives getting infected with HIV from their husbands. Mothers who are infected with HIV could potentially transmit the virus to their children.

“Why were they successful? That’s because their governments required them to use condoms. Here we get scolded when we talk about condoms,” she said. Under current conditions, it is unlikely that Indonesia will meet its Millennium Development Goal on reducing new HIV infections, the minister said.

She said that around six to eight million men regularly went to commercial sex workers, but only 3 percent of them claimed to use condoms regularly. The rate of condom use among such men is the lowest compared to other high-risk groups, such as needle users and homosexuals.

An estimated 16,800 children aged up to 14 are currently living with HIV or AIDS throughout the archipelago, according to Unicef figures. This age group makes up 27 percent of the country’s population, according to the World Bank.

While the government’s focus is on eliminating new HIV infections in children, Leonardi said government-funded treatment was available for children already suffering from the disease. “The government is also providing free treatment to those in need, although coverage needs to be accelerated,” she said.

“First and foremost, the government is committed to the elimination of new pediatric infections, i.e. ensuring that Indonesian children are born free of HIV,” said Severine Leonardi, a youth and AIDS specialist at the United Nations Children Fund (Unicef) in Indonesia.

“To begin to end the epidemic, starting with children is key to achieving an AIDS-free generation - through an intervention known as ‘prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV,’” Unicef said in a press release to mark World AIDS Day which took place on December 1st.

Indonesian government and United Nations officials are focusing their efforts in the fight against AIDS on ensuring that no Indonesian child is born with HIV, a UN expert said on Friday.

Carrefour to Exit Indonesian Market

“It’s just a dream to reach the MDG target. It’s impossible because the use of condoms has dropped while the number of people going to commercial sex workers continues to increase,” Nafsiah said. Regarding the controversy about condom use in religious communities, Nafsiah said that religious leaders should focus on strengthening the faith of men rather than forbidding them from using condoms. “Religion is supposed to prevent people from engaging in risky behavior and to strengthen their faith. But if those people don’t obey their religion, it’s our job to prevent them from getting diseases,” she said. Commercial sex workers have a lower rate of infection compared to housewives because there is a prevention program for them and they often get free condoms, while housewives remain unprotected, She added that this year, her ministry would distribute 10 million condoms to commercial sex workers who would otherwise not be able to afford them.

A district chief who divorced his 17-year-old bride via text message just four days after their wedding has sparked protests in Indonesia. Aceng Fikri, the head of Garut in West Java province, has three children with his first wife, according to BBC News. He took teenager Fani Octora as his second wife in July, but the 40-year-old quickly divorced her with a short text message over allegations that she was not a virgin when they wed. Tuesday (4/12) was the second day of protests against Fikri, as the local council recommended he be dismissed from his position as an elected official. His dismissal is pending a decision from Indonesia’s Supreme Court, according to the Associated Press. Octora also filed charges of domestic abuse and fraud against Fikri, saying he held her hostage after the wedding and lied to her about being a widower, the AP reported. Ujang Suja’i Toujiri, Fikri’s attorney, said on Tuesday that his client was also filing a police report against the teen in retaliation. Aceng, a member of the Golkar Party, was discharged from the political group Tuesday. (December 5th 2012)

Bali Advertiser Interview: Benjamin Cans from Desjoyaux Pools A: The Desjoyaux Casing Structure Concept. The shape and size of our pools are determined by assembling a series of panels that form the structures of our pool, known as the Active Permanent Casing, invented, patented and exclusively produced by Desjoyaux. This exclusive process ensures that the pool is strong and long lasting, while offering great creativity and freedom in terms of design.

B: The Desjoyaux Filtration System. Rapid installation, antileak reliability, effective filtration and water cost savings. Desjoyaux’s revolutionary filter system does away with all inlet/outlet and buried piping in the pool structure, eliminating any chance of leak and eventual maintenance to these systems. No pressure loss and simplified maintenance results in long-term savings. Energy efficient pumps contribute to future savings.

B.A. How important is it knowing what type of client will be utilising the pool? D.P. It is most important to understand the need of the client and their purpose for the pool. Though our pools are beneficial for all types of clients, we ensure to always give a genuine recommendation on how to best utilise a space and what would best suit their property. Desjoyaux pools are designed with customer convenience in mind – quick installation, long-lasting, trouble-free structures, low routine maintenance and of course, the crystalline clear water. Private or public, any shape, any size, Desjoyaux has a solution for every requirement. Our system is also ideal for pool renovations, regardless of the original technique used in the construction, giving a new lease of life to such pools.

B.A. Your company is listed on the Paris Stock Exchange. That is quite an achievement! D.P. Desjoyaux Pools has been listed for 20 years now on the Paris Stock Exchange, thanks to all our dedicated distributors around the world. B.A. Has Bali been a good market for Desjoyaux? D.P. Desjoyaux Pools provide a lifetime of enjoyment and savings because they are built like no other pool in the world. Our unique concept is well appreciated, not only in Bali, but also all around Indonesia. We have been building pools for over a decade here and have successfully completed several hundred projects in different parts of the country. B.A. Can you tell us about some of the systems you integrate into your pools? D.P. The individuality of the Desjoyaux Pool lies in the combination of concepts that are revolutionary in their simplicity, their durability, their effectiveness and their complimentary nature:

B.A. Your 10-year guarantee. That is truly standing by your product. Are your pools that good?

D.P. It all began in 1966 when Jean Desjoyaux, a builder by trade, built his family’s first swimming pool with his very own hands. Today, Desjoyaux has a presence in more than 80 countries worldwide, represented by exclusive distributors with a total of over 600 showrooms. Desjoyaux is now a world leader in the swimming pool industry, having built more than 200,000 pools.

By doing away with the tiles – and especially the grouting between the tiles – Desjoyaux pools are easier to maintain, leading to savings in routine maintenance and chemical costs.

D.P. We have passed all kinds of tests and have been approved and certified by SAS Via Conseil. All our key components are made in our factory in the south of France to the highest quality. The company operates one of the largest swimming pool factories in the world. Desjoyaux casing panels are manufactured using polypropylene mixed with carbonate. The importance of the pool casing is to provide a symmetrical pool wall and to follow proper curves and forms according to the customer’s design and requirements. These panels can resist underground soil pressures while the pool is empty and can support itself full of water when built on a rooftop.

B.A. Benjamin, Desjoyaux Pools has quite a distinguished history in the pool industry. Can you tell us a bit about your international roots?

C: The Finishing of the Desjoyaux Pool. The finishing is with a reinforced PVC membrane, which is assembled onsite to the exact shape and dimensions of the pool. This reinforced membrane is treated for UV resistance and is algae retardant. It is also covered by a 10-year guarantee.

the customer’s property to its full potential. Our design team inspects the property – and we also help with other items, such as outdoor shower, plants, etc. In addition, Desjoyaux offers an outstanding range of decking so whatever your personal choice may be, you can be sure to create a setting that perfectly reflects your individuality.

It wouldn’t quite feel like Bali without a pool of emerald or turquoise crystal clear water to wash off the tropical heat, and one company, in particular, has been providing both quality and stunning pools for Bali residents and tourists that are arguably without peer. In this edition of Business Spotlight, Bali Advertiser had a chat with Benjamin Cans of Desjoyaux Pools.

B.A. Do you offer maintenance services? D.P. Yes, we do have a maintenance service. Our office is situated in Jl Sunset Road, Seminyak for any after-sales service (after the pool is installed), or for purchase of any products to maintain the pool. B.A. Do you view a pool’s aesthetic design as an integral part of a brief – how important is that to you and the client? D.P. A pool is a lifetime investment in your property. Our professional team ensure to convert the client’s dream into reality. One of the most important considerations when choosing a pool is to ensure that the pool design is optimized to its surrounding and that the pool improves and compliments

B.A. Is Bali ‘up there’ so far as international standards go within the pool industry, in general, or should people really choose well when looking for a pool construction company? D.P. Swimming pools are custom construction projects and are built by many individual tradespeople and pool contractors with different standards. All pools are not built the same. With a swimming pool, much of what you do not see will impact the cost of your ownership. Other types of ready-made pools have their limitations – having no concrete which then carries no strength in the pool structure, thus easily disturbed by underground water pressure or soil movement. We believe it is very important to know the history and background of the company you wish to make your pool. B.A. And finally, Benjamin, with such a proud and successful history, is there more to achieve for Desjoyaux Pools, both internationally and here in Bali? D.P. There is no limit! We at Desjoyaux invest 14 million Euros each year in new product research and development. Thanks goes to all our devoted exclusive distributors who have put faith in our products and have helped us maintain a good reputation. We believe a pool is for life so put trust in the global leader in the swimming pool industry. As we say at Desjoyaux: it’s not just a pool, it’s a whole new way of life!

Hannigan was in Bali this month to promote his new book, which had its official Indonesian launch earlier in Jakarta – the Big Durian, a competitor for pungency perhaps – and then its Bali introduction at Periplus at Mal Bali Galeria, Kuta, on Dec. 1. Apparently the Periplus function was conducted entirely in Indonesian and Hannigan’s fine Java-accented Bahasa attracted good reviews. He conducted later speaking engagements, first at Biku in Kerobokan’s well-heeled Jl Petitinget and then at Bar Luna in Ubud, in a mix of languages. We were at Biku – no one should miss an opportunity for afternoon tea at Asri Kerthyasa’s bijou establishment – on Dec. 4 to catch up. Hannigan and your diarist formerly laboured together on Another Publication hereabouts, on a proprietor’s promise of possibly being favoured with a quick smell of a notionally oily rag.

There, the other day, we noticed a post by BRC president Nick Mesritz, who shapes surfboards for a living and is from the land of the magical Haka. It quoted All Black prop Owen Franks on his upcoming pre-season training: “The training programmes are brutal and lonely – the onus is on the individual to be responsible for their fitness and follow an aerobic and strength programme that will include sprint repeats, hill work, gym work and agility sessions.” We could suggest that’s not unlike the daily fitness regime here at The Cage. But we’d be straying a little too far from the literal truth.

Sir Stamford Raffles is a footnote in history for having identified a swampy and malarial island at the bottom of the Malay Peninsula as the site of the future New Serenissima (Venice) nowadays known as Singapore. He is due that credit. He’s also a footnote in the bibliography of flora, having had his name attached to perhaps the most unpleasantly pungent plant on earth, the Rafflesia, characterised by Swedish scientist Eric Mjoberg in 1928 as possessing “a penetrating smell more repulsive than any buffalo carcass in an advanced stage of decomposition.” It’s also known as the corpse flower, and is thus nicely emblematic of a dead empire. There was a bit of a stink about Raffles at the recent Singapore Literary Festival, where British authors Tim Hannigan (Raffles and the Invasion of Java) and Victoria Glendinning (Raffles and the Golden Opportunity) faced off in a firmly feisty manner.

was invented to keep English labourers out of the ale houses of a weekend and then migrated to that working class haven, Australia. We played fly-half (No 10) until one too many “forget the scrum-half, get the next bloke” tactical plays by opposing sides encouraged the view that squash might be a safer sport. But love of the game lingers (you never really lose it) so we browse a number of rugby sites – the Wallabies, the Queensland Reds and Scotland are favourites, along with an historical affinity with the Springboks – including a Facebook page maintained by the Bali Rugby Club.

What a Stinker

All Abuzz

Brisbane in Queensland is a fine place to formerly call home. It’s Australia’s third largest capital city (population 2 million-plus) so it comes with all mod cons, and since it sits happily on 27 S its winters, while locally remarkable, barely pass even the fringe chill test. It’s a great place for Garuda to fly to from Bali – again, after its five-year bottomline disappearing act – and those additional services from later next year will widen opportunities to stage brief returns, something The Diary has missed. But we’ve kept in touch, among other things by way of the vibrant Brisbane Institute, a body that commenced operations some years ago under the benevolent editorial gaze of your diarist. Thus we learned recently that with the appointment of its first Chief Digital Officer, the city joined New York as one of the few conurbations in the world to have its own local government digital champion. It’s part of the Brisbane City Council’s ambition to position Brisbane as Australia’s new world city.

But it is good news, in a way, we suppose. It does seem that PLN has stumbled upon an accounting system that actually tells them whose bill is whose. Maybe, though, they should rework the bit about cutting people off before they’ve had a chance to pay. And while they’re at it, they might look at methods of delivering secure power, consistently, at the right voltage. Repeatedly stubbing your toe while blundering around in the half-dark, courtesy of PLN’s brown-out policy, is not a desirable thing. It prompts intemperate thought and it’s not something that will be fixed by changing the wallpaper. On that score, proposals to set up a Bali “subsidiary” of PLN on the Batam model should be viewed with caution.

Apple of Her Eye The intriguing Marie Bee, who writes for the French monthly journal La Gazette de Bali (avec brio) from the deep recesses of the Ubud environment, was much excited in her latest published dispatch at having seen a reticulated python with two penises. She clearly didn’t major in ophiology at her university in Aix en Provence. These curious tandem arrangements are not altogether unusual among the descendants of the poor creature divinely sentenced to slither on his belly forever for getting Eve to bite that apple. Be that as it may, the Bee piece is a nice buzz, especially since it prompts agreeable speculation that a snake might possibly be able to comply with a pejorative suggestion that it go away and perform what would otherwise be an anatomical impracticality.

Scrummy Once upon a time, your diarist played rugby. That’s the original Rugby Union version, not Rugby League which

Hector’s helper – the chap who’s not just a virtual cockatoo – spends a little time on Facebook, as some of his closer acquaintances have been known to note, on occasion testily. One of these, the Distaff, was recently further underwhelmed at finding herself newly in his profile picture. She won’t have a bar of Facebook, Herself. It’s a nice photo, one from the files from 1994, and it was placed there because while Facebook allows one to proclaim a marital state, it won’t allow any visual or verbal reference to the name of that propinquity unless they are also an FB user. When dealing with the many unknowns of cyberspace, there are sensible reasons to provide concrete evidence of the presence of a Significant Other.

Ties That Bind

Space for this ad donated by Bali Advertiser

PLN, which makes congenital dysfunction seem like a desirable improvement to aim for, has hit new heights with its unannounced introduction of an innovative Bule Billing Plan. Last month’s bill – which failed to take account, as they always do, of serial blackouts and frequent delivery of 80V instead of the standard 220V – was away being paid, by your diarist, two days after it reached The Cage. Not long after the chariot had departed on this happy mission, two chirpy little chaps from the world’s worst public utility turned up at the gate to disconnect the power for non-payment. Fortunately our redoubtable pembantu was on the ball and sent them on their way with whatever is the local equivalent of a flea in the ear. That might be “sebuah loak di telinga,” but we’re not really sure.

Pull the Other Plug

The Queensland capital, while still the butt of jealous jokes from effete southerners, has always been in the lead on technology. It had the first computer in the southern hemisphere, in 1962. In those pre-nano days, the monster had to arrive by ship.

What’s really interesting, however, is that while selecting files for a series of down the years photos for possible profile use, the eye fell upon another, from 1996, only two years later. The Distaff had completely changed: she’d been to the gym or something, was clad in an outfit of a very outré hue, and had changed her hairstyle. But Hector’s helper, non-fashion statement that he remains, was still carrying the same old kilos and wearing the same blazer and tie.

Hannigan’s secular hagiographies are worth reading. We enjoyed his first book (George Hayward and the Great Game). Hayward came a cropper while the Brits and the Russians were chest-thumping in Central Asia in the 19th century. Raffles, whose origins were relatively humble in the snooty (not to say snotty) Britain of his day, ended up ruined financially, perhaps because he was from the wrong side of the tracks. Check out Monsoon Books for Hannigan’s work. It’s worth it.

Feasting Note On Dec. 25, as every year, we mark the Christian anniversary of the birth of Islam’s third-most important prophet, Isa al Mahdi, the Messiah. The birthday is notional, naturally, since the early Christians merely co-opted existing pagan feasts. Easter (from the Greek pagan god Oestre) was the old Northern Hemisphere Spring fertility celebration. The midwinter stave-off-starvation feast became Christmas, marking the birth of Jesus. But myths and the complex liturgies that religious scholars spin from them are what make the world and its belief systems go round, after all. So Merry Christmas! We’ll save the “Happy New Year!” for the next edition.

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

AN EARFUL OF HEART

Even in this age of wall-sized flat television screens and far too much digital information, the old-fashioned radio remains an influential media tool. Of the 40 radio stations in Bali, Heartline Radio (HLR) may be the only one with a focus on rural community service and development. The station was purpose-built ten years ago in the banjar of Tulikup in Gianyar to better reach the people of East Bali. The station serves between 8,000 and 10,000 listeners in Gianyar, Bangli, Klungkung, Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and the northern part of Denpasar.

In February the station will be working with the Educare program of Campuhan College in Ubud to enhance English and thinking skills in primary schools. HLR also produces motivating and inspirational words from all religions, as well as many tips on safety (wearing a helmet on the motorbike, not using the hand phone while driving), protecting their homes from fire etc. There are live phone-in programs, talk shows, in afternoon song request program and traditional Balinese music. Many listeners send the station text messages about issues for discussion. Taking advantage of social media, HLR has over 3,000 FaceBook friends.

We feel that we have a responsibility to inform and educate listeners and to be a forum for social dialogue

Chris connected Chandra with YAKKUM Bali, an NGO that empowers the physically challenged with mobility solutions and skills training programs. He now has a wheelchair, a social life and is working as an intern at an electronics repair shop in Denpasar. This is a perfect example of connecting people with the free services available in Bali. “Working in community-centred radio really gives me the chance to get my feet dirty, get into the field and speak with people in the community. We don’t just sit in the studio and talk at them, we find out what issues are important to them. People know they can use the radio to spread information that’s important to them.

ve rti

“Radio can become a bridge between the community and NGOs,” explains Pak Lindo. “NGOs need media to promote their programs and radio has space to fill. So it’s an ideal partnership.” Programs inform the community about the free services offered by the government and NGOs. The announcements are very useful for locating people in need and linking them with appropriate services. HLR works with the John Fawcett Foundation (cataract surgery), Senyum Bali (cleft lip/cleft palate), YAKKUM (physically disabled), Spirit Paramacitta (HIV support group) and many more.

months ago. “The station accountant told me about her cousin Chandra, whose legs ‘stopped working’ after an illness four years ago. It might have been polio. She told me that Chandra was smart and wanted to work, but no one would hire him. He hadn’t even left the house for four years. I went to visit him. It’s hard to describe how deeply affected I was meeting Chandra; it was the first time I’d encountered anything like that.”

Since 2010 HLR has welcomed young Australian volunteers to supplement its activities. Having foreigners living in the village and taking part in their daily lives has added another element of interest for the villagers. The current incumbent, Chris Kemp, was brought in to write grant proposals to fund the station. But he quickly found himself deeply involved in many other aspects of community life.

Pak Mahanatalindo (Lindo), HLR’s community development coordinator since 2005, tells me that Bali’s is the only one of the six Indonesian Heart Line radio stations in Indonesia to be located in a village and to focus on community development.

The past few years have been a learning curve for Heartline staff, who came from Jakarta and were used to more cosmopolitan listeners. Based in a small, traditional community instead of a city, they had to adapt their programming to a much more local listenership. Over time they have created targeted programs which are valued by the community. “Now that I have more of a feel for the station, I want it to be the top radio station in Bali for health promotion and community development with a focus on East Bali,” enthused Lindo. “We provide public service announcements -- short messages with high impact -- and talk shows, public awareness of free services, information about events, and opportunities for research with universities and other institutions. We train volunteer reporters who go out into the community and interview ordinary people about local issues that are important to them. And we provide free WIFI for the village. “Heartline Radio Bali is not just talk, not radio in isolation. I want a more integrated approach with community activities and supporting service providers’ activities. We’re very grateful to Health Communication Resources (HCR), an Australian based NGO, which has helped train and mentor HLB in community-centred radio since 2004.”

“It’s been amazing. I really love the Balinese and have so much respect for them. And after six months here I find I’m nowhere near as consumer- oriented as I used to be. I picked up a GQ magazine the other day and realized I didn’t want anything in it. My priorities have shifted.”

HLR’s work extends beyond Bali. Lindo has come up with some creative tools for outreach programs even beyond that range of radio waves. In 2009/10 in collaboration with World Relief, he recorded a series of radio programs about HIV information and prevention combined with music for young people in Papua. This was saved on an SD memory card and played in an MP3 solar-powered player. Papuan volunteers took the cards and players into remote areas to present the program to youth. Twelve different programs were changed every week with other groups. Lindo went to Papua every six weeks to train local people to use radio tools, record and edit programs, and deliver programs in communities.

Because of its own limited resources, HLR partners with government, Non Government Organizations (NGOs), universities and other organizations. Recently the station hosted a Bali work placement with three public health students each from Udyana University and Edith Cowan University in Perth. Staying for three weeks in the station’s own accommodation, they learned the many ways that community radio can be used for health promotion. They visited NGO workers and government officials to talk about smoking, domestic violence and HIV, and recorded their messages for broadcast. Following the work placement, one of Udyana students started a sanitation program with a university grant which offers health and hygiene education in Tulikup schools.

Revenue is an issue for this unique radio station. The juicy advertising revenues of Jakarta are a distant memory in this sleepy town. Chris is helping Lindo find creative solutions to support the station’s good work through Indonesian CSR programs. He’s also designing a program to attract international scholars and researchers to work from the station, which has six air conditioned ensuite bedrooms on the property.

“Radio still has a powerful role in Indonesia. People listen while working, cooking, driving, or sitting stuck in traffic jams. Short, repetitive messages are quite effective in changing behavior. For example, when we play a public service announcement about washing hands, people hear it several times a day and are more likely to remember it.”

The station holds a regular FunDay program for children, inviting village kids to come to the HLR garden and play games which are designed to influence behaviors such as collecting rubbish, brushing teeth and washing hands. “It’s more effective to use a foreigner because the kids are intrigued, it’s exotic,” Lindo points out. “When Chris speaks to them in Bahasa, they listen harder. The western volunteers are very useful. They have many good ideas, help with plans to increase advertising and promote the station, and they screen the western music we play for inappropriate content.”

“This is an ideal spot for universities to place students who are researching issues in communications, health promotion, smoking, HIV, nutrition, community development and related subjects,” said Chris. “They can take advantage of the station’s excellent networks with local government offices, the university and NGOs. We have good internet access and the station is just half an hour from Ubud or Sanur.” For more information on this program contact Chris at chris.m.kemp20@ gmail.com

“Our role is not just to entertain people. We feel that we have a responsibility to inform and educate listeners and to be a forum for social dialogue,” says Lindo, whose degrees are in economics and counselling. “Heartline Radio’s principals are to inform, educate, advocate and focus on social development for community programming in radio.

Chris also started Tulikup Hospitality night, a weekly program to help local teens acquire some hospitality skills and become more confident speaking English. Every Wednesday at 6 pm the station becomes a mock hotel and restaurant, and the young people take roles as waiters and hotel receptionists. An open invitation is extended to visitors, especially foreigners, to come and let the excited kids practice on them while touring the village, checking into the ‘hotel’ and sitting down to a 3 course meal. Visitors pay Rp 150,000 (Rp 250,000 if they need transportation from Ubud). The money used to provide English books for the teens and to support the station. Contact Chris to learn more. If Chris is making changes in Tulikup, his placement is also changing him. The carefree young Australian banker, who has degrees in commerce and arts, with majors in international business and Indonesian, had his first brush with the harsh reality of one young Indonesian’s life a few

“It’s had a significant impact because there was very little information about HIV before. Now people understand and can change their behavior to avoid high-risk situations. Heartline radio also has disaster management impact reduction programs in Padang. Every area has different issues.” Big hearts are not hard to find in Bali, and it’s always a pleasure to discover new ones. Change makers like Lindo and Chris with their passion and energy are making Bali a little bit better, one public service announcement at a time.

Free Bali ethnic photos and books: Dutch scholars, administrators, writers and photographers left a vast legacy of books, articles, reports, maps and images which even today comprise the largest body of information on the former Dutch East Indies in the world. Leiden University (https://openaccess.leidenuniv.nl) offers free downloads to such arcane books as Medicinal, Aromatic and Cosmetic plants for community health in Bali, The Ahmadiyya & Freedom of Religion in Indonesia and From Sago to Rice; The Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies (KITLV) has a fantastic downloadable digital image library of the old black & white Dutch East Indies photographs and also offers free books such as Native Doctors and Midwives in the Dutch East Indies. Tropenmuseum (http://collectie.tropenmuseum.nl) has 5157 wonderful historical photos of just Bali alone. Low-def images are for personal use; high-resolution images can be purchased. Wikimedia Commons (http://commons. wikimedia.org/wiki/Bali) has over 500 images of Bali in 52 categories, both in low and high resolution that you are allowed to copy, distribute, remix if you attribute the work in the manner specific by the author or licensor.

Don’t light up! While burning mosquito coils indoors is a very common way to control mosquitoes effectively in homes, and are widely used all over Indonesia, a recent study conducted in Malaysia and published in the Times of India found that breathing in smoke emitted from one mosquito-repellant coil is the equivalent of smoking 100 cigarettes! Most people are completely unaware of the unhealthy risks involved in this type of indoor air pollution. The smoke contains significant amounts of pollutants and volatile organic compounds, including cancer-causing chemicals, posing both acute and chronic health risks in the short and long term. Instead of using coils, screen rooms and maintain hygiene in and around the home, use natural and safe antimosquito measures and/or a mosquito net.

Unbelievably cheap meals in Denpasar: Bali’s signature betutu ayam roasted with ground hot spices (base genep) can be had at Warung Ayam Betutu Bu Kadek Wati, Jl. Subak Dalem, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m for only Rp8000 with salad, sambal and rice. Whole betutu chickens can also be ordered two days in advance for just Rp55,000. Savory spicy Balinese sate lilit and sate plecing made from grilled skewered chicken is served for Rp10,000 (for 10 sticks) with a salad of long beans, water spouts, water spinach plus sambal at Warung Nakula on Jl. Nakula; other dishes like fried duck lunches go for Rp15,000-Rp18,000. Freshwater Sundanese-style or Balinese-style deep-fried gourami, Thai-style tom yang goong gourami or Manadonese-style ikan dabu-dabu can be enjoyed at Dekade, Jl. Noja Saraswati 2 D (Jl. Gatot Subroto) for only Rp37,000 (400 grams). Splashing out but still a bargain is Bendega (warungbendega.com) in a garden setting at Jl. Cok Agung Tresna 37 A in Renon where grilled or fried grouper, tilapia, gourami, squid and shrimp seafood dishes with three different kinds of fresh mild sambals cost Rp25,000-Rp70,000.

Top bed linen: The My Love (BIG Collection) brand is recognized throughout Indonesia as producing some of the best quality bed linens. They offer a wide variety of stylish bedcovers and bed sheet/pillow sets for adults, children and teenagers. Using a computerized quilting processing system, the designs, colors and styles are attractive and interesting, and the quality of the fabric is soft and gentle and doesn’t attract lint. Approximate prices and sizes: My Love Jati bedcovers Rp120,000 for 160 cm X 200 cm; My Love Disney bedcovers Rp100,000 for 120 cm X 200 cm; Rp125,000 for 180 cm X 200 cm; Shyra sheets and pillow case sets Rp95,000 for 120 cm X 200 cm; Saputra sets Rp85,000 for 120 cm X 200 cm; My Love Teen Rp125,000 for 120 cm X 200 cm.

pours rather than sprays - you can easily put Wipol in a new or used spray bottle. CR also found that home brewed cleaners such as equal parts water and white vinegar topped every commercial spray, although these leave a strong vinegar smell. Note: against mildew and mold, use a product with bleach such as Bayclin (Rp8,900 for 1000 ml bottle).

bag stories (toko plastic) all over Bali. Used to carry heavy loads of rice, they are made of plasticcoated canvas, burlap, jute fiber, muslin cloth or woven plastic. Fill empty sacks with earth and use as anti-erosion barriers or as “earthbags” to build a house. Curl the sides over and fill these porous sacks with soil; they make an excellent growing medium for plants or young trees because water passes through them (you see them used this way in nurseries everywhere). Sacks also make biodegradable weed mats by placing them over weeds/grass and covering with mulch; eventually they break down but by that time all your weeds have died. Slip over steel or PVC frames to use as trash receptacles or as a frame for children’s playhouses. Add piping all around and stuff to use as doormats, floor cushions, outdoor groundsheets and sitters. Stuff tightly with plastic bags, sew shut, and draw a bullseye and use for archery target practice. Add a single loop and use as hanging kitchen bags. Use as play aprons for messy kids activities or baby changing pads. Use to store sweet potatoes and squash or for underbed storage. Sell bags with interesting labeling in bulk to manufacturers who make trendy tote bags, sport bags and clothing/purses out of them.

Grime’s Wheatgrass Powder: Mixing one tablespoon of this certified powder with warm water in the morning on an empty stomach is the same as consuming one kilo of vegetables, so it saves much time cooking and eating veggies and the inconvenience of buying wheatgrass fresh. It’s also cheaper. One bottle is Rp215,000 whereas fresh wheatgrass is at least Rp300,000 per month. The basic constituent of wheatgrass is chlorophyll which is present in all green plants. Loaded with vitamin E, A and live enzymes, wheatgrass is quickly absorbed into the blood, reduces stress, increases vigor, boosts heart, blood vessel, intestine, lung and kidney functions, maintains healthy condition of blood, helps detoxification and digestion and related problems such as diabetes, hemorrhoids, colitis, acidity and ulcers. Wheatgrass paste applied to the skin heals burns, acne and other skin disorders. Buy it online at www.wheatgrassindonesia.com; also at The Little Green Cafe, corner of Jl. Mertanadi & Jl. Bidadari, Seminyak; Zula Vegetarian Paradise, Jl. Dhyana Pura, Seminyak; Down to Earth organic vegetarian restaurant, Jl. Laksmana Oberoi 99 in Seminyak and Jl.

What is nyentana exactly? Bali is a patrilineal society, so children follow the line of the father. Nyentana is an old Balinese tradition, which is followed by families who don’t have any boys to carry on the family name. The family “adopts” a man and “marries” him to one of its daughters. The woman takes the initiative and proposes to the man, and everyone understands that it will be the woman who is the head of the future family. Her husband accepts a secondary role in family affairs. He is like a toothless tiger. A poor man might want a nyentana marriage because it’s a way to better himself and improve his financial position, but most men are reluctant to join in this kind of marriage because it’s considered an act of treason against their ancestors (kawitan).

Maybe. If I can communicate well with him and if I can see that he has a desire to advance himself, to realize his dreams, and that he is not a playboy. A friend has advised me that the best thing to do is to make the man fall in love with you first so that he won’t refuse to follow you in a nyentana arrangement. But the problem with that is that I can’t pretend to love someone. It will break my heart again and again if I follow her advice.

What caste do you belong to? I belong to the second Knight Caste, the Kshatriya, who usually work in either the government or defends the country. Is it common for a Balinese woman to still be single at 29? No. The Balinese think that if a woman is of child bearing age, has enough education and has embarked on a career, then they should be married. If not married, the woman should feel ashamed. If a woman is still single at my age, people will ask what’s wrong with you? Aren’t you afraid of becoming an old maid? I know it’s silly, but it’s true! Why haven’t you yet married? Actually, I am tired of trying to find a man who wants to “follow me,” called nyentana. In fact, just two weeks ago I changed my mind and decided not to marry a certain man who I loved and who loves me too.

I once had a junior high school friend, a really tough woman, but when she married a man with nyentana her troubles began. She lost her money and her car. Her husband was a Muslim from Java, who changed to the Hindu religion when he married her, but then he started cheating on her. My friend is a superwoman because she forgave him. I heard that now they live happily together with their lovely twin daughters. I know several friends who found the man they love, but their parents would not accept him as a nyentana marriage partner for their daughter.

Can you give any examples of nyentana marriages?

C/Ns/I-12 Dec 12

Yes, I am. I have learnt how to speak with my parents using a complicated communication system called Bahasa Mekulit (“Package Language”) which means if someone says “A”, it might not mean A, but “B” or even “C.” So, we have to be careful to first analyze what exactly is meant by each other before responding.

Yes, I could marry a foreigner if he is ready to follow me. This is actually a solution that my Dad has suggested and would support. The man, however, would have to accept that our children would bear my father’s last name.

Do you think you can eventually accept a nyentana marriage?

Are you close with your family?

Wouldn’t marrying a foreigner relieve you of the burden of accepting nyentana?

I don’t mind the nyentana status, but only if I can find the right man. I would let him be the leader in our marriage. I’ll respect him as my husband and make a promise to myself that I’ll be a good wife and mother. I will be thankful to God for the opportunity to make my family happy, especially my parents. I’m happy if I can make my Mom and Dad happy.

Ayu Metaliana, a 29-year-old Balinese woman, was born and grew up in Denpasar. As a child her family moved from place to place because of financial difficulties, but she was happy because as an only child she was the center of her parent’s attentions. The family struggled but their circumstances gradually improved to the point where they were able to buy a house in Canggu in 1990. After graduating from high school, Meta attended the Faculty of Letters at Udayana University in 2001 and graduated in 2006. In 2010, Meta opened the Meta Education Centre in Denpasar, which teaches English, science and math students to Indonesian students.

C/Ns/I-19 Sept 12

What do you think you’re going to do?

I’m going to wait until next year when I’m 30 years old. If I’m still single and still no man wants to marry me in nyentana, then I’ll give up on nyentana and marry using the normal system. I will consider him the commander of my ship. The important thing is my happiness. I want to start living my life making my own choices, so in the future if I find a man and we love each other, I won’t push him to “follow me” again. If he wants to follow me, thank God! But if he won’t or can’t, it’s okay! Ayu Metaliana may be contacted via email: metalianaa@ yahoo.co.id or hp 081-236-547-111.

A Fisherman’s Friend Balinese Doctor helps poor fishermen of Amed By Jennifer Juno

REMOTE COASTAL REGIONS Amed is a fairly remote, arid coastal region of small beachside fishing villages, each with it’s own name and identity. These communities are separated by hills stretching along the coast and connected by a single coastal road that winds up over one headland, down into a small cove fringed with grey volcanic sand. The waters are so clear that coral and fish can be seen with the naked eye. Mawan is a vibrant fishing village where daily life has not changed in decades. The people are very friendly and welcome visitors into their homes and daily lives. Each morning before sunrise the local fisherman leave on their jukung boats to catch mackerel in the Lombok Straights, one of the deepest seas in the world. The fisherman usually return early morning, greeted by women and children who collect the fish and take it to the road en route for export markets. Aside from low-key tourism, which has been developing gradually since the mid-80s (boutique resorts, dive shops and scattered shops), Amed still revolves around fishing and farming. Local families live down on the coast and up along Amed’s scrubby hillsides in small primitive shacks and houses. Poverty seems to be the result of an unusually arid climate, a very short growing season and an equally short fishing season. Mackerel fishing high season lasts roughly three months, from October to December. During those months each fisherman can catch 100-300 mackerel per day. The remaining nine months of the year, fishing catches

For observers like myself, Amed’s daily fishing life is a charming attraction. I marveled at a sea full of colourful triangular sails drifting on the vast Bali Sea at sunset, watching them slowly grow bigger and bigger as they return to shore.

“The contrast between the wealthy part of Bali and the east of Bali makes me feel very sad, I realize this village needs our help,” Jake says. “Our appeal is to improve the lives of an isolated village, forgotten by time and progress, living in abject poverty without water, sanitation and health facilities.

Once the boats return, things wrap up pretty quickly. Fishermen methodically carry each jukung up to its parking place, quickly fold up their sails and tie them down. Wives have already reached their husbands’ boats and have begun loading mackerel into buckets. Friends who’ve come to buy fish rapidly pick through the catch, make their selection, and pay. The entire process is repeated again in late afternoons and a few fish are kept to feed the family with the excess sold to local friends or to fish markets in Amlapura City, about one hour from Amed.

Later that evening I caught up with Doctor Partamas to ask him some questions, while women cooked dinner and fishermen chatted around the open fire.

How much do the fishermen earn? During the ninemonth off-season, each fish is worth 2000 Rupiah (about 25 cents). Unfortunately, in high-season fish prices drop to a paltry 300 Rupiah. How do fishermen supplement their income? By farming the scrubby Amed hillsides. They keep farm animals, including pigs, cows and chickens, which they sell. Some of the island’s traditional fishermen take paying passengers to snorkel at reefs and neighbouring islands. Why did you become involved with this fishing community? I met Jake during 2010 when he was spear fishing and free diving on the coast. He started to bring second hand clothes and toys from his children and give them to the families at the fishing village. We both wanted to help the people. Describe conditions in the local hospitals? The hospitals are crowded with family members and noisy, it’s difficult to move around. The local Indonesian health care system is not up to Western standards, serious and critical medical emergencies will stretch the system to the limit. Small clinics are usually walk-in, although you may face a long wait. Advance payment is expected for treatment and antibiotics are handed out like candy. Why are traditional healers popular? Many Balinese people prefer Balians to doctors because hospital outpatient departments are extremely crowded. Often they will

Bali enjoys an abundance of salt-water fish and seafood. Its many lakes and rivers also provide fresh-water fish. Not surprisingly, fish is a main source of animal protein in the typical Indonesian diet. The fishing industry continues to rely on traditional methods and equipment, although the government has been promoting the motorization of traditional fishing boats. Foreign fishing boats contribute to growing exports, mostly shrimp and tuna caught for sale in the Japanese market. However, the supply of fish is currently threatened by illegal fishing from foreign boats using dynamite and cyanide resulting in severe environmental degradation.

Mackerel fishing starts at about 5:00 am, with a serious exercise regime. Since jukung are parked high on the beach, fishermen have to ‘carry’ them in and out of the sea. It takes 4-8 men to carry one jukung. First of all, several men lift a boat and carry it to the water’s edge. Then they set it down then push the boat off. One fisherman quickly jumps aboard and starts to unfurl his triangular sail. Their lean bodies testify to the heavy strain of carrying the solid wooden boats.

FISHING ON THE EAST COAST

While Amed’s vibrant flurry of daily fishing activities adds a charming touch to any vacation, it’s disheartening to learn the dire reality of the fishermen’s daily lives. I recently took a trip up the coast with Jake hoping this situation had been improved by the low-key tourism slowly infiltrating their community.

A FISHERMAN’S LIFE Balinese fishing boats, jukung, are colourful wooden outriggers with arms on either side for stability. These single-masted sailboats have triangular sails made of heavy plastic, each with a different patterned sail, making it easy to identify individual boats. Hulls are made from hollowed-out trees, wide enough to seat one person. The bamboo and wooden arms are slashed together with ropes.

have to wait for hours, sometimes days and private doctors fees are beyond the reach of many. Treatment by a balian (traditional healer or witch doctor) involves a trance or massage session, which may last an hour, and the patient, is centre of attention during that time. There is great reinforcement and reassurance in a way that the patient can easily understand, such as offerings and ceremonies. What service do you provide? My village operates a small clinic in Alumpura, (near Amed) and from there I can provide urgently needed free medical services to some of the poorest families in the community of fishermen. They benefit from a highly trained and well-respected doctor on call. Outreach services include home visits to those who are unable to go to the clinic, AIDS counseling, flooding and road traffic accidents. Why is there poverty in East Bali? Despite its glamorous status as one of the world’s favorite tourist destinations, thousands of Bali residents live in extreme poverty. Most of the remote village residents are very poor and lack a decent education, access to clean water and electricity. Children must walk kilometers to go to school. The soil is dry and infertile. The divide between rich and poor is disturbing. There’s not a lot of wealth returned from tourism taxes in the east and so the government has focused on the western areas where tourists tend to visit in great numbers. Do you treat infections and other illness? Children in Indonesia suffer from malnutrition and diseases such as respiratory infections and diarrhoea. Staph infection is common among fishermen when a break in the skin allows the bacteria infiltrate and create an infection. It needs a doctor who will drain the area of pus and prescribe a course of antibiotics. Are there concerns about HIV and why? Fishermen often place themselves in risky situations because they are separated from their wives and families. Uninformed fishermen have unprotected sex with sex workers who are younger and appear to be healthy. They take antibiotics prior to sex, wash afterwards which they believe make them immune to HIV. What is the village sanitation like? In the villages, public awareness of the importance of hygiene remains low. About 30 percent of the population still practice open defecation. Insufficient sanitation management and poor awareness of hygiene practices have spread these preventable diseases, and children are among those most affected. Do people have enough iodine and other essential micronutrients? People suffer from malnutrition and serious iodine deficiency, complicated by the lack of iodized salt in their diet. For sustainability, we must educate children about the importance of a balanced diet and the key sources of iodine and other essential micronutrients, especially vitamin A and iron, from their first week in school. The children can then transfer this new knowledge to their parents. What are your plans for improving water supply? There are five hamlets, which lack a nearby natural water supply. They require hygienic rainwater storage tanks. These use the same bamboo and cement construction as the schools. Rainwater is collected from rooftops via a bamboo gutter and then passed through a gravel and charcoal filter to clear sediment and bacteria. The key benefits to the community will be more water for bathing and washing clothes and safe drinking water – something they currently do not have.

Doctor Partamas is now calling for more money from the booming tourism industry to go towards tackling poverty in remote parts of the island such as Mawan. The lack of tourism-based revenue, its remote nature and the generally harsh environment for farming, means that this area is very much one of the poorer areas in Bali. With the nearest hospital hours away, the child mortality rate in Mawan is high. Over the next few months it’s Partamas hope, iodine deficiency and malnutrition can be eliminated from the village.

are extremely sporadic. One day can bring 30 fish, the next day merely one or two fish. Each day’s catch also varies greatly for each fisherman.

Last year fishing enthusiast and local expat Jake Mackenzie, befriended local fishermen and their families by bringing old clothes and toys to their village in East Bali, only to discover a Balinese Doctor by the name of Putu Partamas had been dedicating each weekend toward improving the health of these poor fishermen who live in shacks along the shore line of a tiny village called Mawan, near Amed. Motivated by what he saw, the doctor began educating residents about good nutrition and hygiene, medical checks were conducted, and medication was dispensed, all in the name of community service.

The local and provincial governments are not providing enough roads, electricity and running water to the fishing village of Mawan.

The first day is the chef course which includes recipes and practical knowledge, how to set up a raw kitchen, stapes, stocking and meal planners and food combining. The second day is all about detox with cleansing recipes with raw foods, blends and juices. You will learn all about good cleansing practices, emotional cleansing and personalised guidance and of course how to continue. As we all know, with the best intentions in the world, it is easy to slip off the slippery slope and go back to old and often unhealthy habits. So do indulge and call for further details and the location. These courses don’t come along very often and are very informative as well as fun.

Majapahit Kingdom Java the Ancient Origins of Balinese Culture By Mark Jago

C/Ns/G-5 Sept. 12

The connection to Bali is still strong with festivals during the year attracting the royal families of Bali over the water back to Trowulan to conduct ceremonies performed by Balinese priests and attended by thousands of local Javanese who still take great pride in the old kingdom. Whenever the Balinese royal families visit there are traffic jams in all directions of locals trying to get to the ceremonies to see the Balinese entourage.

C/Ns/G-30 May 12

Many of the Architectural features of Balinese temple & palace design originate from the Majapahit kingdom. The architects and builders by the 14th century had mastered the use of clay-fired bricks combined with superior mortars that included the sap from vines & palm sugar, which gave it superior bonding strength. A few of these structures still survive around the village of Trowulan and have been restored and landscaped with gardens & lawns for the pleasure of the steady stream of Indonesian tourists who visit this area every week in busses from all over the island. Very few westerners ever visit this region despite the fact that it is the seat of the original kingdom that Balinese culture springs from. The area was rediscovered in by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, governor of Java from 1811 until 1816 at that time most of the region was covered in Teak forests and the giant gateways & structures were hidden & buried. Many of the cultural artefacts have survived over the centuries despite volcanic eruptions from nearby Mt Kelud and often violent flooding that has taken place over the centuries. At local sites where modern brick makers are systematically removing the top layer of soil to make bricks, you can see evidence of a rubble composed of broken brick fragments, stones & gravel that give the appearance that the material was put through a giant washing machine before it settled in it’s current form. The ground level of the old Kingdom is easily seen at these sites with the discovery of old buildings & dozens of now earth filled ceramic lined water wells capped by custom made bricks that form a perfect 1 meter round circle when laid on top of the ceramic well liners that used to go down to the water table. Because of this violent & sudden covering of entire regions in ash & mud many of the local brick makers over the years have come across ancient statues, coins and a whole host of other artefacts that now fill the local museum at Trowulan. There are persistent rumours of some local brick makers

Nov 10 & 11 saw one of the Royal families of Bali from Denpasar attend a cultural event in Trowulan. Bringing their own priests to perform ceremonial rituals watched by thousands of local Javanese. The days of religious wars that must have inspired the original Kings of Majapahit to flee to Bali are long gone and the Balinese are now welcomed back home with much enthusiasm and patronage from the local Muslim inhabitants. Many of the statues of Buddha & Hindu gods for sale on the streets of Bali are produced by Muslim craftsmen 5 minutes down the road from the site of the original palace at Trowulan. Entire villages are devoted to the creation of sacred statues and designs for the international markets that are usually purchased in Bali by Western and Asian customers.

C/Ns/G-11 July 12

This is an area of Java that has so much to offer anyone interested in discovering the fascinating story of Indonesia and the origins of the Balinese culture, with many sites to see within a relatively small area, ranging from the mountain top water temple of Candi Jolotundo on the slopes of Penanggungan mountain in Trawas an hour’s drive from Trowulan. It is a Hindu monument which was built in 9th century for the queen of Majapahit by the Balinese king of Udayana as a wedding present. It lays claim to having the clearest water in all the world and many people come to drink and bathe in it’s waters for good fortune & health. Then there are a variety of substantial architectural sites to visit ranging from now roof protected ruins of old palaces to surviving gates, temples & bathing pools scattered all around the region. There in the brickwork of these ancient structures you will find the familiar designs and architectural elements now found all over Bali in temples & art work. The old kingdom, thanks to the sanctuary of Bali was able to continue in isolation from the ravages of war & intrigue over the centuries to come. It survives to this day a rich and living culture that attracts millions of people yearly to this tiny unique place situated off the coast of Java it’s birthplace. Now with the Balinese royalty returning to honour and conduct their ancient religious practices at the invitation of the Javanese people maybe the world has turned full circle and we are all learning to celebrate the richness and pleasure that comes from a diversity of different cultures and ideas and realize that our connection to each other is not all that dormant or buried too deep in the distant past after all.

The Hindu & Buddhist Kingdom of Majapahit dominated the cultural & economic affairs of Indonesia from 1293 to 1500 extending as far as modern day, Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei, southern Thailand, the Philippines, East Timor, Sumatra and New Guinea. It’s power and reach dominated the entire region until it’s demise through internal power struggles and the steady encroachment of the Muslim faith sealed it’s fate in the 1500’s with the remaining members of the royal families relocating to the relative safety of Bali, other smaller communities moved high into the hills of east Java and still practice their culture and religion to this day in these isolated highland communities. The power of the old kingdom is reflected in the modern boundaries of Indonesia, which are based on the region of influence of the old Majapahit kingdom,

striking it rich overnight digging up stashes of gold & jewellery lost in ancient times as a flash flood of mud & rubble consumed the old kingdom and burying it’s bounty for others to dig up 500 years later.

The Hindu culture and religious practices of Bali actually originate from the most powerful Kingdom in Indonesia’s long history known as the Majapahit Kingdom who’s seat of power was situated just a short one hour hop from Bali by plane and another hour by car in a place called Trowulan on the outskirts of the regional city of Mojokerto one hour up the road from Surabaya, Java’s second largest city.

Millions of people come to Bali every year attracted by the colourful culture of the Balinese people. Very few of them have any understanding of its origins or history. But most can see that it has roots in the distant past and is a rare and unique culture that has survived through hundreds of years of change and flux that is the history of Indonesia the spice islands of the East.
