CANGGU NEWS
Petitenget to Pererenan
Canggu Club is In the Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month I’d warrant there would be few of us if any, who have not been touched by cancer in some way whether it be personally or through family, friends or acquaintances. According to statistics breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the world and the most prevalent among women. Studies indicate the annual increase of breast cancer since 1990 in some parts of the Asia-Pacific have reportedly been up to eight times higher than the world average.
Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.
Thanks to a number of organisations and associations across the globe, awareness about this disease is also on the rise. Despite this, it is vital that we continue to spread the word and raise funds for these non profit organisations in an effort to help them offer support to many women in countries such as Indonesia who are unaware or unable to seek assistance and counselling. Canggu Club is once again ‘in the pink’ for October - annual breast cancer awareness month. To get the ball rolling, they are offering a selection of coral coloured cocktails throughout the month at the special price of Rp90K. For every cocktail sold, Rp20k will be donated directly to the Bali Pink Ribbon Foundation. Choose from exotic sounding concoctions like Pink Lady, Berry Margaritas and Rosella Delight. Tasty and irresistible, at that price at least you can justify having a second! On Friday October 7th, in conjunction with the Bali Pink Ribbon Foundation, Bistro C hosted their annual Think Pink Morning Tea. A delightful high tea affair where the community was invited to dress in pink and come along to help raise much needed funds for the Pink
Following the energetic stuff participants are invited to stay around and enjoy the many food stalls live entertainment and raffles until 9pm!

Earlier that morning, regular Canggu Club Pump class devotees dressed in their best rose hued active wear to Pump it in Pink for breast cancer awareness, with all monies generated going directly to the Bali Pink Ribbon Foundation! As is the case every year, the staff from Canggu Club will once again be participating in the Bali Pink Ribbon Fun 5km Walk and 5km Run. It’s the biggest event on the Bali Pink Ribbon calendar, the day kicking off at 2pm with a DJ and the welcome briefing, followed by the warm up at 3pm, the run from 4pm and walk commencing from 4.20pm.
Much More Than Just a Lunch on the Lawn!
over! Granted, the actual race is really what the day is all about but the party held in its honour is something else to behold! Time and effort spent on selecting just the right racing attire is obvious as elegantly clad couples swan through the gates dressed in the style of the moment and with more than a little determination to take line honours in the fashions on the field - a traditional part of cup day that often receives more attention than the race itself! French champagne and cold beers flow freely from 11am and delicate canapés are offered
Can you hear it? The clink of champagne flutes, the popping of corks and the distant thundering of hooves……Cup Day excitement is already bubbling in Bali and it’s time to get your party checklist sorted. Following two insanely successful years, The Canggu Club is once again playing host to the island’s most popular and unique Cup Day event. Let’s be honest, if you can’t be front and centre at Flemington come November 1, Canggu Club’s Lawn Party is the ultimate ticket for cup day fun in Bali. With all of the gilt, glamour and sparkle of the Spring Racing Carnival, Canggu Club’s Melbourne Cup party is an up market affair, their lawn resplendent with white marquee, linen covered tables and a multitude of screens to view one of the most widely watched horse races the world

Much more than just lunch on the lawn, Canggu Club Melbourne Cup Parties are renowned for being one of the most sought after social events on the Bali calendar. Recent years have seen a growing trend of international guests returning to the island around November, specifically to attend Bali’s biggest lawn party and judging by the hype that’s building around November 1st, this year will be no exception. You could be forgiven for thinking the last two years of Cup Day entertainment would be impossible acts to follow with

international acts the likes of Jon Stevens and Ian Moss, however they’ve hit the jackpot once again by securing singer songwriter, Daryl Braithwaite. In addition to a longstanding and successful solo career, Braithwaite also enjoyed fame as frontman for popular Aussie band Sherbet, a hugely successful group boasting a run of 20 consecutive hits during the 70s and 80s. Live race coverage is at noon followed by a succulent sit down lunch and fashions on the field. Braithwaite hits the stage from 4pm but the day’s entertainment commences from 11am with DJs and live support acts performing from 2pm. But the dancing doesn’t stop there!

The third addition to the Term 2 line up is the exciting sport of Muay Thai!

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE OCTOBER 12 - OCTOBER 26, 2016
The Full Moon kick starts this fortnight with a good dose of rocket fuel to get things moving in your life. Uranus is conjunct the Full Moon Aries and therefore opposing the Sun in Libra and promises some unexpected or surprising events on or around the date. Mercury also in the sign of Libra is squared off to Pluto and Mars who are coming into an exact conjunction this fortnight. There are sure to be some arguments or disagreements with this combination. Mars as the lower octave of Pluto is igniting that rocket fuel I mentioned earlier, but on a more serious note, Pluto is all about endings, new beginnings, transformation and power and in the sign of Capricorn, money, governments, industry and business. With our Sun still in the sign of Libra promoting justice, fairness and a peaceful outcome, Mercury’s agenda will be in alignment with it until they both move into the sign of Scorpio at the end of the fortnight. Scorpio is a sensitive and powerful water sign and ruled by Pluto and brings a push for transformation more powerfully apparent and we will see this with our next New Moon cycle. This may be a lot to digest and yet there is more to come with Saturn (the ruler of Capricorn) pushing through a T-square to the Moon’s Nodes and activating a series of fated or karmic events and this was exact just before the fortnight began and is still very close on the Full Moon. Hold onto your hats.

FULL MOON 23 Aries 14 October 16, 2016 12:23 p.m.
Obviously this Full Moon will be a strong catalyst for you with Uranus and the Moon joined in your sign and pushing the partnership/self axis in a very unusual way. It’s a little bit like, now you see me and now you don’t. There’s the possibility of a great deal of tension in the work place and this is propelling you to take action on your plans for the future and particularly with regards to your vocational objectives. The karma points are promoting health related issues and perhaps it is time to seek out an authority or a teacher with regard to this or someone from your past may reappear to assist.
With the Sun still in your sign and Mercury being prodded and pushed by Pluto and Mars you are surely ready to stand up for yourself and what you believe in this fortnight. In fact, your communication could reveal a real authority laying deep within. You’ve managed to access some of the deeper truths underlying human existence and can now more easily share them in your everyday life and workplace. Sudden, shocking and revelatory events with a significant other are bound to take place at the start of this fortnight. Again this is an opportunity for you to speak up and to promote your own values in a diplomatic way.
Venus and the Sun move into your polar opposite sign, Scorpio, at the end of the fortnight and bring a strong focus of attention on the significant others in your life. Meanwhile the Full Moon Uranus duo take you into the farther reaches of your mind to explore your own unconscious behaviours and particularly within relationships and expose how you give too little or too much of yourself. As the truth exposes the reality or the delusion you’ve been living in, the changes come with a determination to transform old behaviours and create a new model for yourself. The interesting thing is that friends will show up to help you make the changes.
You are no stranger to transformational urges and powerful surges of energy will no doubt be coursing through your veins this fortnight as you push the hidden agendas more strongly with others. Passion is yours for the taking now with Venus in your sign and the Sun and Mercury will both join her by the end of the fortnight. When karmic push comes to shove you find that finances are still creating tension which seeks resolve now. As you enter more fully into friendships and community endeavours your past memories and intuitive abilities rise to the surface. These will be utilised for the good of all concerned through an act of service.
Mercury your ruler is at loggerheads with Pluto as the fortnight begins and the topics revolve around shared resources, finances, children and your creative expression. The transformation for you promises to be deep and penetrating into many areas of your life. Romance, intimacy and sexuality could also be hot topics for communication and potential arguments. There’s a parenting or partnership issue that is pushing you towards the family, although a strong connection to your past and career issues promise fulfilment through some interesting reconnections. This Full Moon portal will bring some insightful group activities and unexpected surprises through friendships.
Karmic forces are at work and will bring the need for a new direction with regard to your goals and aspirations, as well as to situations with family members or your literal home. Taking a stance and being the authority in your life brings tensions of its own, as others may not see things the same way as you do. There’s a powerful shift occurring in the area of material possessions and money and this will lead to discussions and possible arguments with friends or group or community members. If you play your cards right, or even by a stroke of good fortune sudden changes bring opportunities for new friendships.
The Moon is your ruling planet and joined with Uranus gives you a double dose of Full Moon to begin this fortnight. Work related and future oriented topics are up for unexpected surprises as too are your home or family issues and here there could well be arguments with partners or significant others. This catalyst brings change to those relationships and action is called for now. The axis of service is particularly highlighted through the karmic points and it is time to take the role of authority in your everyday work situation and/or concerning your health. Do you perhaps give too much of yourself and is there a new balance needed?
Pluto and Mars joined in your sign are promoting more of that powerful personal transformation and again this will have you speaking up about the important topics. Your truth seeking is an internal job although this period promises to bring meetings with some interesting people and openings to discuss topics of a more spiritual nature. It may even bring a teacher or mentor of sorts or you yourself may become this person. The Full Moon brings surprises in the home or regarding family. Try to not be too forceful or domineering with others as they too have their own set of standards, beliefs and understandings. Activate your empathy and unconditional love.
Do you have a strong urge for travel or a calling to study something which will elevate your thinking to a whole new paradigm? Meanwhile communication is tantalizing and probably almost dramatic enough to keep you satisfied this fortnight. It’s time to take action regarding your health or within your everyday workplace and this will lead to further changes of direction with regard to your finances and material acquisitions. As you learn to let go of those things which truly no longer matter or are of no importance support comes from unexpected places. Your deep emotions are not always visible to others and this could be the time to expose the truth.
Uranus joins the Full Moon and brings an argumentative edge to discussions or sudden mental clarity or insights. It could be that they come together and thus exposing the hidden agendas or manipulations coming through other people or your own misaligned actions or thoughts. You like to uplift the environment through communication although sometimes you can also throw a bit of a spanner in the works with your visionary abilities. There’s work to be done and now that the truth is exposed you will want to work towards a new set of standards so people can work together with a higher value system in place. That is a common focus which works for everyone.
With a strong focus on your prior lifetime skills, Sudden, deep and powerful transformation is gifts, talents and abilities you are now able to on the cards for you, this fortnight. For some work to expose the truth and teach others, of you it has already begun and now it is time through a one-on-one experience. It’s the time for action and those conversations you’ve to take on the role of authority or to be the probably been avoiding, as they may revolve boss in current situations. Your partnerships are closely around the issue of finances and belongings. Partnerships bound to sharing and this can bring the need for a change highlight early childhood development either current or of course or direction when it comes to friendships or in past and encourage you to take a leading role as parent or choosing a harmonious community within which to live. authority within your own life. For some it is simply the time This Full Moon has the potential to bring radical shifts to to grow up or mature into the next phase of your evolution. your ideals, beliefs and material wealth. You may suddenly Romantic partners from the past may revisit and this could see the World in a whole new way which will organically also promote transformation, change and growth with a bring change and movement. need to let go.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS BICYCLES INSPIRE CHANGE Put your hand in your wallet today to help local social enterprise founder Komang Indrayana, who started a bicycle tour business that not only supports his family but also the school in his village. His tours are unique, not just showing off the beauty spots but visiting other non-pro¿t projects that help the Balinese community. In 2014, Komang raised enough money to get his business started, and began to put some funds into improving the education at his local school. This year he’s asking us to help pay for a professional website and purchase of 15 good quality bicycles - so he can stop renting bikes when he has big groups. He’ll use 10% of funds raised to buy books for the local school library, and any remaining money will pay for a teacher who will add agriculture, science, nutrition, and English to the curriculum.

I’m delighted to tell you that Taksu Restaurant is bringing back its popular Sunday evening Ristaffel – literally “rice table”. This traditional meal was ¿rst created in the Dutch colonial days, to demonstrate the rich range of Àavours, colours and textures of tropical food to Europeans visiting the East Indies for the ¿rst time. And of course, for those visitors, even the tropical surroundings would have been a surprise, a wonder and a delight. So Taksu’s gorgeous gardens are the perfect setting for what is essentially a gigantic Indonesian buffet, where Taksu’s miraculous chefs take delight in preparing all the classics, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, including Soto Ayam, Tofu Curry, Ayam Rica-Rica, Sambal selection, Jackfruit Rendang, Gado Gado, Pepes Ikan, Plecing Kanjung, to name just a few.

SOS HANDYMAN It’s always annoying when I don’t have the tools or technical expertise to ¿x some problem in my little Ubud nest. I’m the oldest of four daughters, so Dad taught me most things, but electrical problems, water pipes and home renos are usually a bit beyond my experience – even when I have the language to describe what I need at the toko bangunan (building shop). So I’m looking forward to testing out SOS Home Service; a good friend says they have professional handypeeps who can solve most property problems. He says they are fast, reliable and not too pricey. Check out www.soshomeubud. com or call directly to 0361-9080467 for super fast service. No fee for checking out the problem and giving a quote! Let me know how you go (see my email at bottom of the column). TRY A “VILLAGE PLATE” The team at Taksu Photo Gallery has come up with an authentic cross-cultural exchange, to help visitors get to know how local Balinese families live. The “Village Plate” offer brings tourists to eat with Balinese traditional families, in their local compounds. Usually, the visit takes at least three hours, with discussion about food preparation, and explanation about the layout of a traditional Balinese compound; each visiting group gets the opportunity to connect with and learn from locals, in their own setting. You can choose the “meal only” option, or have a complete cooking lesson.

The idea behind the “reserves” – there are two others already in Bermuda and Puerto Rico – is to create spaces where the culture and history of the local people is protected. So, they have not carved a nasty new path through their chosen patch of Bali, instead adapting to the natural topography on a big bend in the Ayung River. As a result, both restaurants have beautiful views and each villa is perched next to its own little stretch of water (my Dad would want to bring his ¿shing rod ſ). Every guest room and villa displays beautiful murals, each commissioned by a different Ubud artist. Balinese rice and organic vegetable farming continues throughout the resort, providing a calming backdrop for adult guests and lots of real Balinese activities for any youngsters who spend a day based at the resort’s “technology free” learning center. And then there’s the food! Both restaurants (one Asian fusion, the other Mediterranean) offer a delicious degustation menu … too much to write about, but the seafood consomme was rich, creamy and laden with large chunks of lobster and shrimp; the squid ink pasta was tangy and perfectly cooked.

overstepping boundaries when friends are gripped by shame and self-loathing. And the consequences, dire, of not stepping in. Perhaps most confronting of all, though, is the shock of knowing that not all damage can be healed. Yanigahara wrote this, her second novel, in 18 months, despite maintaining her full-time job as writer for Condé Nast Traveler. When asked for her description of the book she says: “One of the haunting questions… is whether being surrounded by the most giving, loyal friends is enough for someone who has survived—and inflicted upon himself—unbearable, prolonged abuse”.
A most compelling play on light and dark: Hanya Yanigahara’s A Little Life by Shelley Kenigsberg If you’re planning to attend this year’s Ubud Writers and Readers Festival, you’re in for some extraordinary sessions, not least those that uncover the power and deep comfort of the 2016 theme—Tat Tvam Asi, translated, most accessibly, as I am you; you are me. This Sanskrit phrase embodies a commanding idea in a world besieged by the bind of the binary. It seems that every day, I (‘we’?) face choices (practical, psychological, spiritual) between doing one thing or another, being one way or another, voting one way or…. There’s opposition in so many things—the light or the darkness, freedom or shackling. So, having just finished turning the (more than 720) pages of Hanya Yanigahara’s second novel, A Little Life, (with heaving sobs at times), I am thrilled she’ll be here to present this extraordinary book. Despite the title, this isn’t a little story at all. It’s a profound look at some powerful themes with some dark storylines running through. Of course, I rush to add, it’s leavened with light and, while it’s intense, here is a skilfully wrought story about the power of connectedness and the consolation and grace of true friendship.
As Willem says to Jude, “… someday you will [understand]: the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.” A Little Life charts the lives of four young men whom we meet as college roommates and then follow, for the next three decades as they grow their lives as professionals: Malcolm, as architect; Jean Baptiste (JB), painter, Willem, actor and Jude, lawyer. Each gains renown in New York and success, but their personal lives seem anything but successful, in the beginning. Indeed, it’s the early life of the main character, Jude (named after the Patron Saint of the Hopeless) whose history of abandonment and abuse is the complex palette through which Yanigahara shows her enormous talent. Through Jude’s deftly drawn dramas we begin to understand how the decency and compassion of friends can bolster a life. Though he’s become a brilliant attorney Jude’s past trauma is inescapable. He remains addicted to cutting himself and it’s his interior world, a tortured universe that his friends— and we readers—must work to enter. It’s sensitive ground to navigate as we’re exposed to the brutal lifelong effects of trauma and then privy to the sway and grace of their intertwined relationships. Yanigahara explores the anxieties and prohibitions that the men feel in
Another of her writing drivers is the phenomenon that, she says, “half of humanity experiences… Our culture’s lack of imagination about what it means to be a man. Men are given such a small emotional palette to work with. They have a very hard time still naming what it is to be scared or vulnerable or afraid, and it’s not just that they can’t talk about it—it’s that they can’t sometimes even identify what they’re feeling”. A Little Life is a young book (published in 2015) but has already been much awarded: shortlisted for the 2015 Man Booker Prize; finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction; shortlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction and winner of the 2015 Kirkus Prize in Fiction. While it investigates extreme ideas, I never felt it sensationalist, or excessive and certainly not moralistic. On the contrary, I felt invited to feel and think, deeply, about how much we humans are all alike. The resounding message for me, coming as I do from Zimbabwe, resonated with the African notion of Ubuntu: I am what I am because of who we all are, which, to come back to where we started sounds a great deal like the beautiful: I am you; you are me. I urge you to read A Little Life and come to hear Hanya Yanigahara speak. Don’t be daunted by its size, or by the descriptions that range (from light to dark) as ‘deeply moving’, to ‘upsetting’ through ‘harrowing’ to ‘traumatic’. Though we’re denied easy resolutions in this book it is precisely that, which made it so utterly compelling. It’s hardly a little life… and I’ll be there to ask Yanigahara about that and much more.

SALON SECRETS - HIV - Hepatitis B & Hepatitis C What You Need to Know It has been quite few years since I have enjoyed the pampering of a manicure or pedicure, and as many since I have had a facial. The reason? While having a pedicure at a local, but very clean “nice” salon, the chap filing my toe nails with a metal file slipped, stabbing my toe…not too painful really, but he did draw blood. I immediately looked around for the “sterile” tray where the instruments were stored, but there wasn’t one. When I asked him how the instruments were cleaned he told me they were wiped down with “wet tissues”; hardly a technique that would suffice in killing viruses that could cause lifelong illness. I was lucky I guess, I didn’t contract HIV, Hepatitis B or C or any other blood borne infection. But this week a woman who was NOT so lucky came to see me. I am writing her story at the request of her family so as to warn others of the not-so-obvious methods of transmission of HIV and other blood borne diseases.
I find it extremely disturbing when I look around at the equipment used in salons & spas, to see an array of metal instruments with no sign of any serious sterilization equipment. When these instruments are used on a client that could be carrying HIV, Hep. B or Hep. C, the virus could very easily transferred to the next client unless the instruments are appropriately cleaned and sterilized. Not all people are aware that they are carrying any of the abovementioned viruses, as carriers can be asymptomatic for months or even years after contracting the disease. Also consider this: • While the HIV virus is generally unstable outside the body, in certain conditions, the virus can survive outside the body for several weeks. • Survival depends on which body fluid it is in, volume of the body fluid, concentration of the virus within it, temperature, acidity, and exposure to sunlight and humidity. • The Hepatitis C virus can survive outside the body at room temperature, on environmental surfaces, for up to 3 weeks. • Hepatitis B virus can survive outside the body at least 7 days. During that time, the virus can still cause infection if it enters the body of a person who is not infected.
• Disinfect all work surfaces • Client & staff member to wash hands before and after treatment • All cuts and abrasions to be covered • Sanitize client hands • Sanitize all files & buffers & throw out if a client is cut or suffers an abrasion during a treatment • Replace all towels regularly with clean ones that have been washed on a high temperature cycle (minimum 60 degrees Celsius) • For each treatment a clean towel should be used If you regularly visit salons for facial or nail work, it would be highly advisable to purchase your own equipment to use exclusively on yourself. Education The key to curbing the HIV epidemic is awareness. 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 http://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 Where can local people get advice and testing?
This is a true story and I would like to thank the family concerned for sharing this story with me and for asking that the story be made public so as others may be aware. The names have been changed for obvious reasons. “Mary” walked in to my office nervously clutching her lab results. She had been suffering from recurrent throat infections and mouth ulcers. Her family doctor suggested a blood test for HIV; the result was POSITIVE. This was not only shocking but a complete puzzle to this stay-at-home mother of three, and her husband (who tested NEGATIVE).
HOW CAN I AVOID BEING AT RISK You don’t have to give up spoiling yourself at the salon, or avoid dental work that’s half the cost of dental work overseas for fear of contracting a nasty virus, but what you DO NEED to do is ask the staff how and how often they sterilize their equipment. If they don’t seem to know what you are talking about, or cannot show you any decent system for cleaning and sterilizing ALL equipment between EVERY client, then you need to find another salon.
How on earth could she get this infection?
• Yayasan Kerti Praja - Jalan Raya Sesetan, No 270, Denpasar Phone: +62(0) 361 728916/17 E-mail: ykpdps@denpasar.wasantara.net.id http://www.kertiprajafoundation.com • Yayasan Rama Sesana (YRS) - is a non-profit reproductive health clinic inside Bali’s largest traditional market, Pasar Badung and now in Sanur at Pasar Intaran. YRS is a well-known centre for information about safe health practices and affordable, high quality reproductive health services provision for vulnerable low income women in Bali.
HOW SHOULD EQUIPMENT BE CLEANED A brief interview highlighted several risky situations in her recent past. She had been to a local salon for manicures, and facials when sharp metallic instruments had been used for blackhead removal and skin cleaning. She had also had dental work done at a local dentist. One of these incidents had given her a life-long infection with HIV.
Disinfection can be done by heat or chemical treatment methods. Heat treatment is carried out in a steam cabinet, or by boiling water. When using chemical disinfectants items need to be immersed in the chemical for 15 minutes or more. Note that alcohol can have an eroding effect on tools causing bluntness or rusting: rusting can be eliminated by purchasing a chemical solution with a rusting inhibitor such as sodium nitrate. Hygiene checklist • Sterilize all metal tools

SPOILED Last week I was spoiled by Max the charming master hairdresser of Spoiled Hairdressers on Umalas. Max ran his own successful salon in Holland for twenty-¿ve years, at which point he felt he needed a break. He came to Bali for a sabbatical twelve years ago but after only six years he was lured back into the salon business and opened Spoiled. I had heard of this Dutch hairdresser that my friends raved about but had never gone to visit him. Feeling fed up with my hair and ready for a change, I thought it was time to ¿nally meet this guy. When I called to book an appointment I told him that I wanted my hair cut and styled. Suggesting that I could come in the following afternoon, he offered me a manicure and pedicure. That would be delightful.
Back sitting on my throne, the team continued with the pedicure and manicure. Another team member came with a pallet of colours to choose from the OPI polish range. Fifteen minutes later back to rinse out the mask from my hair. By now my ¿ngernails and toes looked beautiful. While I was having my hair treated and manicure and pedicure performed, Max greeted a couple of ladies who came in for services. One of them he clearly knew as he greeted her with kisses on the cheeks and a hug. The other he cut her hair on the opposite side of the row of chairs. Now I was ready for Max to come work his magic on my hair. With a comb and scissors he snipped here and there as we chatted about dentists and aesthetic clinics in Bali. The snipping continued with hair falling around my chair until he was satis¿ed. Then he pulled out a hair dryer and brush and proceeded to blow dry my hair. After my hair was dry he made some adjustments to my style with his scissors. Max hovered behind me waiting for my comments. Looking in the mirror I was delighted with my hair. Max smiled his approval, saying that the colour looked great and that my hair is in pretty good condition. He also commented on my pretty toes and ¿ngers.
The following afternoon I ventured out to Kerobokan and easily found Spoiled Salon, which looks very modern and chic, located at the crossroads in Umalas. Upbeat groovy music filled the clean and stylish salon. Entering I would highly recommend Spoiled Hairdressers for their the salon I was greeted services. Everything they did for me was great. Max is a by smiling Max who was talented and charming hair stylist you can trust with your hair. standing by the reception desk. After a brief friendly introduction, Max escorted me to one of six available chairs and sat me facing the mirror. As he ran his ¿ngers through my hair he asked what I’d like done. I wasn’t really sure, but was fed up with the lock of hair that kept falling in my face. He suggested a trim and style. Then examining my hair at the roots he suggested colouring it. He liked my present golden colour saying that it suited me. He then called over his colouring team of two ladies and instructed them on the blend. One of them is a colourist and the other specializes in highlights, both being trained by Max. Before After While one of the ladies went to prepare the c o l o u r concoction the other asked if I’d like some tea or coffee. I asked what kind of tea they have and she told me my choices. I chose the ginger lemon blend. When the colourist returned she placed a plastic cape over me to protect my clothing and then set to applying the solution. After the second lady returned with a stylish teapot/ cup combo she also joined in applying solution to my head. I was told I must wait 30 minutes as she set the timer next to my pot of tea. Meanwhile a male attendant approached with a pedicure kit and sat at my feet. After inspecting my feet he started ¿ling and clipping the nails. He then applied some cuticle cream and worked to clear the dead skin around the nails. While he worked on my feet another girl approached with supplies for manicure and sat down next to me. After inspecting my nails she proceeded to ¿le them and continue with the manicure procedures. When the timer went off the colourist approached to lead me to the shampoo area. Gently massaging my scalp she rinsed the colour from my locks and applied shampoo. More lovely relaxing massage. Then she told me that she was going to apply a mask to my hair to give it a good conditioning treatment.

“Raw” Milk or Pasteurised – What’s Best? Raw’s not for kids, consume advisedly, OK in Aged Cheeses I grew up in the countryside and the fresh milk we drank was what’s called “raw” today. That is to say it was unpasteurized and un-homogenised. Tasted pretty good and I don’t recall anyone getting sick. It arrived in great 3ft high churns. When we went to London milk arrived clanking along after dawn on eleclectric carts in pint glass bottles with different colour tin foil caps denoting it’s level of creaminess. It was all pasteurized and some of it homogenized, which simply meant it was treated to prevent the butter fat rising to the top as cream.
Fans of raw milk - who can be quite zealous in its defense claim people get sick because they’re not used to the “good” bacteria it contains. “If you add that to a sanitized immune system, you can have some bad effects, like diarrhea,” McAfee says. But experts say it’s key to distinguish between bacteria that might give you the runs for a few hours and pathogens that your immune system can’t handle. Indeed, despite Organic Pastures’ regular inspections, it has had four more recalls since 2006—including one last year from E. coli.
As for the lower allergy rates, food experts are unconvinced. I tried unpasteurized milk a few years ago and found it a The upside of pasteurization however, is clear: when the strangely Proustian experience, mainly because the only practice became widespread in the early 1900s, deaths from time I’ve drunk milk as an once common milk-borne illadult is as café au lait.

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit By Michele Cempaka
What is Vulnerability? A friend asked me the other day, what does vulnerability mean to me. I pondered her question for a moment and then explained, “Vulnerability is our willingness to be totally real even when it’s uncomfortable -- to open up to receiving all the judgment from others without putting up barriers. When we can truly be vulnerable, we discover a totally different kind of strength that allows us to fully step into our authenticity in ways that we have never done before.” I know that most people are terrified to take off the mask and say what they really think, or live their lives in a completely different way than the norm, as then other people might judge or criticize them for being a rebel or a weirdo. There is a deep desire in most people to fit in and be accepted by others. To be judged and/or disliked can be quite painful, but to be alienated by our friends or community can be totally devastating. For me, all of the above have been a part of my life since childhood. I have never been able to fit in with most people because I am a weirdo. From an early age I already knew I was VERY different from most people. This set me up for being vulnerable most of the time which challenged me to the core. I found myself spending long hours as a child observing ants as they carried food back to their ant hills or made trails with hundreds of them working together in unison. They represented total harmony within a social structure, but also a homogeneity that wasn’t possible for me. No matter how hard I tried to fit in with others, I just didn’t. As I grew older and became a young woman, I felt even more
vulnerable, which scared me. A part of me just wanted to stay home and not deal with the world. A psychic recently told me that I actually would prefer to live in a cave far away from society. I never saw myself choosing to be a total recluse like this, but when he said those words something inside of me said, “Yes!” It’s much easier not dealing with people, because then we don’t have to risk being judged or disliked for who we are. What if none of that mattered? What would our lives be like if we were always willing to be vulnerable and open in all situations in our lives? I am writing this article while I’m in Bangkok where I will spend a few days with my husband. I can see his vulnerability as he is in unfamiliar territory. This is the first time he has left Indonesia and his home of Bali. To go to a foreign country for the first time is a wonderful example of being vulnerable, because everything is new and totally different than what we have become accustomed to.
territory, but our willingness to open up to something different could actually invite new and wonderful experiences that may have a profound effect on our lives. There is always the possibility that we will stumble and fall when we are vulnerable, but each time this happens we learn something new and gather more strength than we had before. Through vulnerability, we also deepen our compassion for self and others. Our hearts soften and expand allowing more space for grace, joy, beauty, peace, understanding and forgiveness. Our vision widens and like the eagle, we are able to see our lives and the lives of others from a higher vantage, giving us more insights into who we are and what our life purpose is. We don’t need to suppress our vulnerability or disguise it. This will only fan the flame even more and twist it into something ugly like intense anger or bullying of others. Often the people who are belittling or abusing others are doing this because they are terrified of their own vulnerability; they feel they have to lock it in a cement block so no one can hurt them. So back to my original question - What would our lives be like if we were always willing to be vulnerable in all situations in our lives? I’m not sure what the answer is? Maybe we would finally be able to live from the space of love for all beings and let go of all our judgments? How would our world be if we could all create this reality?
We are out of our comfort zone, so we have two choices: 1. Close ourselves off and put up our guards so no one can hurt us. 2. Open ourselves up to the experience and allow others to show us the way. The first choice is very limiting and there is little or no possibility of us experiencing the magic of being in a new culture and meeting new people with unique perspectives. If we choose the second option, we might feel awkward and embarrassed as we navigate our way through totally foreign

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch
What does ‘Keluarga Besar’ mean? C/He/G-12 Oct. 16
Literally meaning ‘extended family’, keluarga besar particularly in Bali means a whole lot more on a number of levels.
dr. Yanti Aesthetic Clinic
In the West, when we think of an extended family, we think of the family outside of our nuclear family, and perhaps extending sideways no more than a ¿rst cousin. In Balinese, the extended family is called ‘semeton agung’ a term normally used by royal families, where they include coats of arms a bit like the tartans of clans in Scotland. In Bali, the extended family not only extends further in all directions but includes these members more often in family religious ceremonies where pretty much everyone shows up. These kind of serve as routine reunions which happened as often as every six Balinese calendar months. They are held at the sanggah gede (big family temple) and are a good time to catch up with the latest family goings-on and of course gossip. The even larger extended family can be traced to clans – my wife’s family (so I suppose my own nuclear Balinese family) is from the Pasek Bendesa clan from Klungkung and every time there is a ceremony at the clan temple in Gelgel my father-in-law goes there to pray. For certain it is currently en vogue to claim heritage to people of caste or importance in Bali, with even one political ¿gure claiming to be a direct descendent of a Majapahit king. From my experience, many Balinese like to claim they are related to just about everybody if it is to their advantage, and a ¿rst-meeting conversation will be aimed at establishing their family’s importance in this regard.

You may see the term keluarga besar being used by government of¿ces: there is a Keluarga Besar Polri, Keluarga Besar TNI and Keluarga Besar Imigrasi. To the outsider, this is certainly a weird use of the word family. For me, it has dangerous connotations considering the Indonesian government claims to be clamping down on corruption (known as KKN = corruption, collusion and nepotism). Doesn’t including the word family here open things up further to nepotistic practices? For sure, Indonesians know how much easier it is if you have a family member in any of these departments.

For Balinese, family links can be highly respected and inÀuential even if they are extremely remote or carefully and politically crafted.

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris
Why Gardening With Neem Is Bitter Sweet â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Dear Garden Doc, A friend gave me a cutting of the neem plant that he said was known as the curry plant. I have heard about neem oil as useful for organic pest control, so I was wondering if it is safe to consume other parts of the plant apart from the oil, and whether or not it is safe to eat produce sprayed with the oil. In what way can neem oil be used for pests? Is this cutting safe to grow and use, is it deÂżnitely the curry plant? I am just a bit confused considering I have seen neem oil in use for pest control. Any advice in regard to this matter would be much appreciated. Kind Regards, Lyndallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; The sweet neem is Murraya koenigii, whereas the bitter neem is Azadirchata indica. Be sure to correctly identify the plant which you are dealing with. These two plants can easily be confused because their leaves have a similar appearance, but very different uses. The curry plant or Murraya koenigii is a shrub with aromatic leaves, and is also known as the sweet neem or kari patta, but be careful because the leaves closely resemble the bitter neem - which is used more for medicinal purposes and also as an organic pesticide. On the subject of the curry plant and neem, it is quite confusing when you look into it - but this is a great question. You must always be very careful when casually identifying plants, especially if you plan on consuming them. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just rely on the common or colloquial name as many vastly different plants have names in common. You should always reconcile the plant with its scientiÂżc name and this will usually require you to correctly identify the leaves, Ă&#x20AC;owers, fruits... possibly even the bark. Always check and double check, you want to be 100% sure that before you eat a plant growing in your garden that it is not toxic. The curry plant, Murraya Koenigii plant is native to India and is usually found in tropical and subtropical regions in various other countries throughout Asia. The leaves are traditionally used in south Asian cuisine and are generally called by the name curry leaves or kari patta, or known literally as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sweet
neem leavesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in most Indian languages. They are also sometimes referred to as curry neem and edible neem, although not related to the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bitter neemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and has few if any medicinal properties. The sweet neem is what you would be looking for if you plan on using the leaves in cooking. The leaves should be sweet to taste, and have a pleasant Ă&#x20AC;avour. The bitter neem, on the other hand will obviously taste.... well, bitter of course! To further confuse things, there is another plant Helichrysum Angustifolium that grows as a small bush, and is often sold commercially masquerading as the curry plant, usually in western countries. This â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;curry plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is not the same plant which yields kari patta, or curry leaves. This particular plant is an imposter, and whilst its leaves do carry the scent of curry powder, it is not the same plant which has been traditionally used on the sub-continent in the culinary arts. The plant itself doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t resemble kari patta at all, with needle like greyish/silvery leaves. Although the scent of this plant is reminiscent of the aroma of curry powder, the taste is nothing like kari patta at all. Additionally it grows as a small woody shrub under 2 feet in height, whereas the Murraya can reach heights over 10 feet. Now to the topic of neem oil, which is extracted from the bitter neem - Azadirchata indica. The oil of this plant is one of the most popular neem plant products, made by pressing the neem seed. The seed oil is used as an organic insecticide, and for this reason is very popular with organic gardeners. Neem seed oil is also an ingredient in many cosmetics. In India most of the neem oil is used in soap but there are also shampoos, lotions, creams, toothpastes etc.
A warning: the seed oil can be toxic and should not be taken internally, and for this reason I would avoid spraying edible plants with neem oil. Just because a pesticide is listed as organic does not necessarily mean that it is safe for human consumption. You must always read the label on the product. While many claim that pure neem oil itself is edible and safe on edible plants, pesticide products containing neem oil will have other contents that will make it unsafe for consumption. People that have used neem oil on edible plants commonly report a lingering adverse smell and taste of the residue that can be present even weeks after spraying. Just be sure to remember that just because a product is labelled as containing neem oil it does not necessarily mean that it is always organic or safe, neem oil is toxic. DeÂżnitely check the label before spraying. The leaves of the bitter neem plant on the other hand are said to be safe for human consumption, but you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use them in your cooking. They do contain the same active ingredients as the seeds, just in a much lower concentration and are primarily used for medicinal purposes. Many herbalists recommend chewing the leaves, taking capsules of dried leaf, or drinking the bitter tea, which is said to cleanse the blood, and strengthen the immune system, to name just some of the most popular beneÂżts. Neem is a powerful herb. Although the leaves of the neem tree have been used this way for thousands of years in India, always consult a qualiÂżed doctor or herbalist beforehand, and deÂżnitely donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it internally over long periods. If you are having trouble determining whether or not you have the sweet neem or the bitter neem, crush up a leaf and place it on your tongue â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you will know instantly whether it is bitter or sweet. Wow, who would have thought that the subject of curry leaves could be so complex! This dilemma highlights why it is so important to correctly identify any plants that you intend on consuming by using the scientiÂżc name in combination with visual identiÂżcation. The common name for plant identiÂżcation cannot and should not be trusted on its own, as they often vary from place to place.

HECTOR’S Head for the Hills, Gabblers
Poor Show
Well, the Diary is ready for the feast. This will not be in Hotel California style. We’re not much into steely knives and we certainly don’t want to kill the beast. Not that what we’re talking about is a beast at all, anyway. It’s Ubud’s annual rite-fest, the Writers and Readers Festival, which has been a treat every year since 2004. Our focus of interest in this instance, America-wise, lies on the east coast, where as The Eagles also take time to remind us, the old world shadows hang heavy in the air. Speci¿cally, it’s the New York novelist Lionel Shriver, who a few weeks back caused a frisson of Àounces in an address to a literary occasion in Brisbane. Perhaps she’ll rufÀe a kebaya or two while she’s here. That would be fun.
Australian visitor Tim Hodge felt obliged recently to publicly note that he’d been disappointed while on a white-water rafting trip to Bali to see that rubbish is still being dumped straight into rivers. He wrote: “ I just don’t understand their way of thinking. They think the river is like a magic trick and just makes it disappear?” That’s a fair point, except that it fails to acknowledge – perhaps understandably since Hodge is a visitor who doesn’t know the whole picture (and couldn’t be bothered to take one himself, apparently) – that many people here, locals and foreigners alike, are doing all they can to properly manage rubbish.
Shriver’s ¿ction is elegant, but gritty in the social-realistic sense. Some people seem to think that ¿ction writers should not speak in voices that are not their ethnic or national own. It was this apparent prohibition that caused the Àurry in Brisbane, when Shriver made an assertion that ¿ction is ¿ction and characters within those narratives are ¿ctional too. That seems like common sense. Still, it’s a free world. Read an author if you want to. Don’t, if you don’t. Shriver, whose background is journalism, is the author of 11 novels, including the New York Times bestsellers So Much for That (¿nalist for the 2010 National Book Award and the Wellcome Trust Book Prize) and The Post-Birthday World (Entertainment Weekly’s 2007 Book of the Year). Her book We Need to Talk About Kevin won the 2005 Orange Prize and was adapted for ¿lm by Lynne Ramsay in 2011. Shriver won the BBC National Short Story award in 2014. Her latest novel, her twelfth, is the disturbingly dystopian The Mandibles: A Family, 2029–2047, published this year. She features in two events at the festival: Talking Fiction and a session on her latest book. This year, the festival will host ¿ve days of “after dark” events with a full program of arts, live music, performance and poetry taking place at various venues in Ubud. Pecha Kucha kicks off the program at Betelnut (Oct. 26), where presenters will take to the stage to deliver a 20:20 presentation of thoughts, words and ideas: 20 slides at 20 seconds a piece. The festival’s popular Poetry Slam (Oct. 29) will also be returning for 2016, with a festival-¿rst, in which Betelnut will also play host to a women-of-words Poetry Slam (Oct. 27), a special celebration of sisterhood in the form of spoken word. Returning for its second year, the festival’s Late Night Laughs at Casa Luna (29 October) will feature Pakistani stand-up comedian and social commentator Sami Shah. There’s much more – see the program on the festival website for details – but there’s something on Closing Night (Oct. 30) that particularly piques The Diary’s interest: The Scottish Avant-garde noisemakers Neu! Reekie! This year too there’s a new type of “Residents” pass that gives holders of other visas as well as KITAS one-day passes for Rp 700K.
Helping Hands Those of us who live here – and a goodly proportion of those who don’t but still ¿nd the wit to learn about Bali, Lombok and Indonesia – know that the tourist scene is just a veneer. The real places exist beyond the Ày-in-Ày-out package tour, the entertainment, and the chance to ¿re off a quick criticism that takes no account of reality (see next item). It is always pleasing to see the distressing reality of life here get both an airing and a partial comeuppance, as we did with a story from Sanur resident Elizabeth Travers. She told the saga of little Kadek who has a very rare skin disease and is being helped by Solemen Indonesia. Kadek needed a bath installed to help with soaking his painful skin several times a day and Travers asked friends here and in Australia and Singapore to consider making a donation. Well, did they ever! They contributed enough to Solemen to provide an undercover bathtub and a hot water system so he can have warm baths. Solemen will also help to pay the electricity for this. Travers knows of three other children in Bali with the same problem skin and the money will assist them all. From her post she also got referrals to the Melbourne manufacturers of QV cream head of¿ce in Melbourne from Caroline Anderson and the Queensland makers of Poly Visc eye ointment. A scientist who researches genetic skin disorders has volunteered his time and travel to visit Kadek to see if there is anything he can do to help.

He compounded this felony by posting a picture of a truck in Peru that was engaged in grossly polluting one of that South American country’s rivers, and seemed aggrieved when this was pointed to him. Not good enough, Tim.
Off Your Bikes There’s a campaign under way in Java to punish parents of under-age motorbike riders. The police take no notice of this law-breaking, of course, because there’s no money in it and no doubt because irresponsible adults would be miffed if they were to be held accountable for their negligence. We’ll see how that goes. In Bali, meanwhile, the death toll among under-age illegal motorbike riders shows no sign of slackening. Children who seem barely old enough to be let out on their own, let alone zoom off on Dad’s motorbike, regularly ride to and from school and spend weekends riding dangerously around narrow, non-engineered roads. It’s almost as if they’re looking for an accident. Too often they ¿nd one, in a variety of fatal ways. Jack Daniels of Bali Discovery said the other day that if it looked as if he was starting a crusade against this dreadful plague, that was because he was. He makes a very powerful point. On Sep. 30 a 15-year-old boy and his 35-year-old mother were killed in a head-on collision with a truck in Tabanan regency. The boy was driving the bike. He rode out into the opposite lane to overtake traf¿c and straight into an oncoming truck. Both he and his mother died at the scene. The truck driver was not negligent. He is undoubtedly traumatised, and will probably be mentally scarred forever, but harm to others is something else little idiots never think about. It’s time the traf¿c police started doing their real job.

Gold Standard Australian businessman Geoffrey Gold, with whom we once had a pleasant dinner at Un’s restaurant in Kuta and who is long-term ¿xture in Indonesia and Singapore, referred the other day to the dwindling numbers in the Australian business community in Jakarta. That’s a sign of the times of course, on both sides of the tectonic fault-line that bedevils relations. His comment was in the context of the Australian football grand ¿nal function in Jakarta, at which this year neither the ambassador (Paul Grigson, with whom, many moons ago and in plentiful company, we also broke bread) nor the Qantas manager were present. So be it. A footy ¿nal is just that: a footy ¿nal. Gold has a far more interesting tale to tell about another function in which he was recently involved. He has just been to Yogyakarta where lie the remains of the Australian-British crew of a C-47 (Dakota) aircraft shot down by the Dutch air force in 1947 while on a mission to deliver medical supplies to the Indonesian authorities during the war of independence.
C/Ns/G-6 July 16
The graves of Australian pilot Alexander Constantine, his British wife Beryl, and British co-pilot Roy Hazlehurst, were unmarked for nearly two decades. Gold rediscovered them three years ago and negotiated to get a new toilet block at the site turned away from facing them. Others, including Constantine’s family, have since contributed a simple new memorial. Indonesia’s independence narrative has plenty of heroism in it. There’s room too, to mark the heroism of foreigners, particularly Australian and British, who contributed their lives to the struggle.

PLAN BEE
Here’s a little something to mull over with your morning coffee. Long ago Albert Einstein warned, “If bees disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live.” The clock could be ticking. Some sources state that honeybees pollinate up to a third of our food crops, a ¿gure that’s hard to con¿rm. But bees are certainly a very signi¿cant link in our food chain; along with other pollinating insects they play a crucial role in biodiversity, agriculture and ultimately food security. Pollinated crops include fruit, vegetables, seeds, nuts and oils, many of which are important dietary sources of vitamins and minerals. And cash crops such as coffee, cocoa, fruit and cotton also represent important sources of income in developing countries. Farmed and wild bee populations have crashed dramatically across the world in the past year. Europe lost 20% of its honey bee population in 2015, India 20% and Australia an estimated 25%. The Unites States lost 36% of its bees last year; seven types of bees once found in abundance in Hawaii recently became the ¿rst bees to be added to the US federal list of endangered species. There are thought to be no wild bees left in China due to excessive pesticide use.
and Sumatra due to ¿res, villages in North Bali have seen the drop in the production of clove and coffee plantations due to the decline of bees in that area.” The goal of Ratu Lestari Alami is to establish 2000 hives for honeybees on Bali, generating sustainable income through the sale of honey and beeswax and increasing pollination of cash crops. The project was created in partnership with Hatten Wines, started 22 years ago by a Balinese family, which now operates extensive vineyards in North Bali supporting almost 250 local families. Hatten plans to convert part of their Sanggalangit vineyards to a bee hive center where bee hives will be hosted, bee products harvested, and a bee-friendly meadow will be planted. Local residents will be trained to become the beekeepers, and in turn supply honey for sale. The Sanggalangit vineyard of Hatten Wines is surrounded by guava and orange groves which will bene¿t from the presence of the pollinating bees. Hatten also provides free timber from its used shipping pallets for the construction of bee hives.
“Indonesia has six indigenous species of honey bee and three introduced species,” Kelly explained. “They have a variety of habitats ranging from nests 25m in tall trees, in tree cavities and hives on the ground, all vulnerable to ¿re and toxic chemicals. “Besides the catastrophic decline of honeybees in Kalimantan
“We want to place 2000 new bee hives around Bali before the end of 2017. Each honeybee hive includes a queen, which continuously lays eggs for three to ¿ve years. About ¿ve percent of the hive population consists of male drones which service the queen, and 95% are female worker bees who seek nectar to bring back to the hive. “We invite readers to sponsor an item on our wish list. The full list at csr@naturallightcandleco.com.

We don’t know how many bees have been lost in Indonesia because no one is counting them, but the drop is enormous. This is mostly due to loss of habitat through ¿re, monoculture and the excessive use of pesticides. One woman’s story de¿nes the crisis.
Not only was this a disaster for Natural Light but also for the smallholders whose farms and forests had been destroyed by the purposely set ¿res used to clear land for massive palm oil plantations. To draw attention to the issue and help re-establish honey and beeswax production, Kelly started the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) project Plan Bee under the name of Ratu Lestari Alami.
“We have an extensive wish list for 2016 and 2017,” Kelly told me. “Our mission is to conduct research on honeybees throughout Indonesia and support sustainable beekeeping projects. The aim is to fill a crucial data gap that’s an important piece of the puzzle in the world-wide decline of bees and to directly bene¿t people who are working in the forest, farming and beekeeping communities.

Kelly arrived in Bali in 1997 and soon began making artisanal beeswax candles, establishing the Natural Light Candle Company a few years later. Initially she had to source beeswax for the candles from Australia and Vietnam, but over time established projects with small farmers in Kalimantan and Sumatra which provided domestic production of 40 tons of beeswax a year for Natural Light. Then last year, as a result of extensive ¿res across the archipelago, production plunged to just 2 tons.
guests and support the local environment. Villages are invited to participate in the bee re-population by receiving training and acquiring bee hives to pollinate local crops of coffee, clove and other fruit and vegetables.
In September Hatten Wines, Ratu Lestari Alami and Four Seasons Resorts Sayan hosted a week-long program for education and awareness of the declining bee population issues in Bali and Indonesia. On the ¿nal day Slow Food Bali presented an educational event on Indonesian honeybees. Hatten provided its excellent and comprehensive venue, including a classroom where Kelly presented her research and journeys to Kalimantan and Sumbawa to study the bee issues there. This was followed by a tasting of wild honeys collected from 6 different locations in Indonesia. Experienced beekeeper Chef Liam Nealon of Four Seasons Sayan offered honey-enhanced dishes and culinary presentations. During Bee Week, Ratu Lestari Alami launched an island-wide call to action to increase Bali’s honeybee population. Individuals and companies can work with Ratu Lestari Alami to increase honeybee populations by sponsoring a queen bee or bee hive and planting a bee-friendly meadow. Four Seasons Sayan will lead a hotel initiative to keep bee hives on hotel estates in order to serve local honey to their

As individuals we can support Bali’s bees by avoiding the use of pesticides in our gardens and planting Àowers to feed the bees. Buying honey and beeswax candles increases the demand for bees and supports bee keepers. We can choose to buy organic produce to support organic farmers. And if we are lucky enough to have a big garden and some trees, we can host a bee hive – an excellent educational project for kids. But support Plan Bee we should. It has never been so sweet to do the right thing.

BA Feature Article
The Tree of Life Project in Bali By Ines Wynn The coconut tree has a long and interesting history. Its use by humans has been evident for thousands of years, serving as a resource for building materials, food, oil, milk, water, medicine, a high energy fuel source, to name just a few.
is critical. The DME technology produces pure, natural, virgin, cold-pressed coconut oil from fresh coconuts. The process was invented by Dr. Dan Etherington from Kokonut Paci¿c Australia and is currently being deployed in Bali, Java and Sulawesi.
Worldwide, eleven million farmers in 90 countries grow coconut. Over 80% are situated in AsiaPaci¿c, with Indonesia and the Philippines being the largest producers. Virtually all these farmers are poor and receive little bene¿t for their toil. Consequently they are not investing in replanting and coconut plantations have declined as a result. Possibly as much as 30% of the Indonesian coconut plantation area is considered as senile, meaning very low productivity.
Dr. Etherington, regarded as a pioneer of VCO, was invited to make a presentation at the most recent Asia Paci¿c Coconut Community (APCC) 47Th COCOTECH Conference which was held in Bali from 26th to 30th September 2016. Its theme was “Innovations that Promote Inclusive Growth and Sustainability of the Coconut Sector”
• •
How did this situation arise? By the 19th century coconut oil actually was a popular global trade commodity and investment in plantations Àourished, reaching a peak in the 1920’s. However a major decline in demand set in following a series of unfortunate economic circumstances including the worldwide depression which began in 1929, global warfare, mass-market manipulation and cynical misinformation by the sugar industry and competing re¿ned vegetable oils industries. As a result new plantation development ceased and never resumed. The World War II conÀict in the paci¿c (1941-1945) interrupted exports from south-east Asian coconut producers and created a global edible oil shortage. In response the USA began a huge research effort to boost local vegetable oil supply. Soybeans were cultivated on a large scale via intensive monoculture farming practice on millions of hectares in the mid-west. By the end of WW2 soybean had the potential and resources to capture much of the market share previously held by coconut oil. After WW2 coconut oil got a bad rap when all unsaturated fat was promoted as being linked to coronary heart disease. Poor science promoted and popular opinion validated the concept of low-fat diets which was supported by the sugar industry and the vested interest of other vegetable and palm oil producers. This combined to deal a severe blow to the coconut oil producer market. Coconut, represented by small, scattered and developing economies were under-resourced to mount an effective resistance to the powerful western vegetable oil industry. And therefore the coconut oil market and its copra trade declined severely and never fully recovered. A timely turn-around. Today, with its known nutraceutical and functional food properties which are extolled in numerous publications and acknowledged by health professionals and international experts on nutrition, Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is quali¿ed to enter the health and wellness global market, reported to have already reached US $ 3.4 trillion in value. Virgin coconut oil is suitable for human consumption in its natural state immediately after extraction and ¿ltration requiring no return to the original copra trade model of production. Virgin Coconut Oil may be produced in various ways and consumers are generally unaware how their oil is made. Most virgin coconut oil in Indonesia is derived from coconut milk, generally as a by-product of the large desiccated coconut industry. In the same way many consumers are unaware that most coconut water packed in Tetra Pak is made from mature coconut water derived from other bulk processing coconut industries. In Bali and other parts of Indonesia, Kokonut Pacific, an internationally focused organization, is actively involved in establishing virgin coconut oil and down-stream value added opportunities for small scale coconut farmers, using an entirely different approach to making Virgin Coconut Oil. By taking the processing right back to the farm level, it enables rural families to produce pure virgin oil within one hour of opening their coconuts. These coconuts are grown and processed locally and organically, without the use of fertilizers or other chemical inputs. Since its foundation in 1994, Kokonut Paci¿c and its DME® (Direct Micro Expelling) technology has contributed to creating signi¿cant long-term bene¿ts in health, wellbeing and the environment - at a time of rapid population growth, and when the need to protect the environment from a range of threats, including climate change
The Tree of Life Project Bali. In Bali, Kokonut Paci¿c is represented by Haigan Murray from the Coconut Knowledge Center in Ubud for the “Tree of Life Project Bali”. These coconut experts and their Balinese operating partners, UD Restu Bali, have established a virgin coconut oil processing operation at Desa Gadungan, Tabanan called Nyuh Bali (“Nyuh” being the Balinese word for coconut). Delegates of the 47th COCOTECH Conference in Bali visited Desa Gadungan on 30 September to gain a ¿rst hand introduction to DME VCO production in Bali with many of the Indonesian visitors expressing interest in deploying the technology at other coconut growing locations within Bali and Indonesia. Co-Operation agreements have been entered into with the Centre for Sustainable Development at Udayana University Bali, part of the UNDP Sustainable Development Network and The Coconut Technical Center in the Solomon Islands where Kokonut Paci¿c works collaboratively with over 600 certi¿ed organic farms.

more energy. Helps to keep diabetes in check: It does not produce an insulin spike in your bloodstream. Instead it helps control blood sugar by improving the secretion of insulin. Supports the immune system. It is rich in lauric acid, a nutrient that supports the body’s immune system. Keeps candida in check: Coconut oil has a good quantity of caprylic acid in it which is well known to kill off excess candida by targeting harmful bacteria. Helps with weight loss: even though it is a fat, it actually helps with weight loss. The healthy medium chain fatty acids do not circulate in the bloodstream like other fats; they are sent directly to the liver and are converted into energy. The body does not store the fat in coconut oil as fat; it uses it to produce energy instead. Nourishing for the brain: Studies show that it improves cognitive function, and stalls, or even reverses, neurodegenerative diseases in their early stages. Good for the skin: When applied externally it forms a protective antibacterial layer shielding the infected body part. Also, coconut oil speeds up the healing process of bruises by helping to repair damaged tissue.
It is interesting to note that re¿ned vegetable oils are now known to have low heat tolerances and release toxins called aldehydes when heated to high temperature. Virgin Coconut Oil on the other hand is heat resistant and due to high levels of anti microbial and anti fungal properties does not go rancid even after one year at room temperature. It has no detrimental side effects and unlike other vegetable oils, it does not form harmful by-products such as trans fats when heated to normal or even high cooking temperature. Available everywhere - VCO is available in many retail outlets. But be a discerning customer. Not all oils labeled Virgin Coconut Oil are that. Many are mixed with other vegetable oils and the labels do not always indicate that. Buy from a reputable place and avoid the cheap varieties.
Alongside virgin coconut oil production and other value added products such as coconut water, coconut skim milk and coconut Àour, there are a number of agricultural extension projects to help develop coconut agriculture in Bali and bene¿t Bali’s small scale coconut farming community. All these projects are designed to be a model of sustainable healthy living for the individual and for the planet. One the main components of the DME program developed by Kokonut Paci¿c is a microbusiness model using appropriate technology that takes value added coconut operations right to the coconut tree, empowering local small-scale farmers to become independent of the middlemen that dominate the small scale agricultural supply chain. The Tree of Life Project Bali is providing support in the form of micro-financing, equipment supply and technical services, marketing support, education and training to coconut farmers. The main objective of this project is economic development and contributing to the sustainable and stable expansion of coconut agriculture by encouraging re-planting of coconut and improvements in coconut genetics.
If you want to combine being good to your body with being good to your soul, look for SoleOil, an organic VCO marketed by Yayasan Solemen, one of the most visible NGOs in Bali. SoleOil’s story is rather special. Together with the Tree of Life Project Bali it aims to support the small-scale farmer project in Tabanan while receiving Rp 10k per bottle for Solemen’s many projects. The SoleOil project is not only a way to support small-scale farmers, it also is a means to empower rural women whose access to a sustainable business is restricted by their location. Currently SoleOil products are available at Canggu Deli, Desa Seni, Earth Cafe, Bintang, Manik Hair, Gourmet Shop/Bali Catering, Biku, Watercress with more retail outlets joining monthly. The future is promising. From a food crop to a health crop coconut is now becoming a sunrise industry. It is best positioned to become the worlds healthiest sustainable plant based edible oil. At a time when concerns of agricultural productivity and global nutrition form a central part of policy development for all countries, the coconut palm offers an opportunity for a viable alternative to unsustainable, harmful monoculture agricultural systems, GMO and climate change ampli¿ers.
Endless Bene¿ts, Endless Uses – Coconut oil has been used throughout Asia and the Paci¿c for thousands of years as both a food and a medicine. It has been part of Ayurvedic medicine for 5,000 years in India. In tropical climates like Indonesia the coconut is used extensively in food preparation and topical applications like skin and body care. Virgin or cold pressed (non-re¿ned, non-bleached and nondeodorised) coconut oil is often described as a super oil, the “healthiest oil on earth” and thanks to its important health bene¿ts it has been declared the new power food. It has been extensively researched and proven that thanks to coconut oil, people are healthier, have less heart disease, cancer, and colon problems than unsaturated fat eaters. It is now accepted that there is good cholesterol and there are good saturated fats. The Health Bene¿ts of cold pressed VCO are actually too numerous to mention here. Its major properties are: • Nutrition: It is nature’s richest source of lauric acid which protects your heart by reducing total cholesterol and increasing good cholesterol. It has a small amount of vitamins and minerals like choline, iron, vitamin E and vitamin K. The latter vitamins are important for cardiovascular health. • Thyroid-stimulating: Coconut oil contains medium-chain fatty acids (triglycerides) that stimulate metabolism and give you
Coconut plantations can contribute a lot to the wellbeing of our planet and its inhabitants. When properly handled coconut culture means zero disruption to biomass or peat soils. No clearing of rain forest. No displacement of local populations. A valuable, existing, in ground plant-based resource of healthy nutrition and numerous downstream products. Nyuh Bali Project

“Bom Melons and Senna pod Tea” I am rudely reminded that we haven’t talked about gas for a while, perhaps a nice strong cup of senna pod tea may rekindle the topic. The rude reminder came in the form of a pretty scary experience for a good friend of mine who had a near miss with a gas explosion in his kitchen. He was very lucky and was left with singed eyebrows and a distinct lack of need for senna pod tea. It was a sobering reminder of another friend who many years ago in Western Australia was nearly killed when, wearing only swimming trunks, he ran towards a burning house when a gas cylinder exploded. With over 70% (yes I did say 70%) burns he was very lucky to survive and it took a lot of pain and many years of hard work and the expertise of the legendary burns unit in Perth Hospital to save him, the result of a split second badly made decision. Gas is important for most of us but continues to be one of the most significant dangers we live with every day of our lives. My friend has a gas stove in his kitchen, it is a design very common in Indonesia with a cupboard built into the stove to hold a gas cylinder. The gas regulator (the device that attaches to the valve on the top of the cylinder and controls the gas flow to the rubber delivery hose) was leaking. Many regulators leak but we’ll come to that in a minute. The gas had built up inside the cupboard so when my friend leaned into the oven to light it the cloud of gas mixed with oxygen exploded. Fortunately for him the kitchen is well ventilated so the gas build up was not too great but still he was left seriously traumatised. This could have happened to many of us, how often it happens we don’t know but we can be pretty sure that it is a little more common than many of us would like to think. The story raises a series of issues to consider so let us go through them. 1. Gas cylinders in enclosed spaces Having the gas cylinder inside a cupboard that is built into a gas cooker is about as sensible as giving the kiss of life to an irritated tiger. Gas regulators and cylinder valves often leak so gas cylinders should be kept in ventilated areas preferably outside the building especially if the kitchen is not ventilated. Gas water heaters should also be outside. 2. Gas Smell In its natural state the gas that we use does not smell and so, for public safety, a smell is added (a government requirement) so people will be aware of a gas leak if it occurs. Modern liquified petroleum gas (elpiji as it is known) has a smell but it isn’t very strong, well - not as strong as the old “coal” gas we used at home when I was a lad which was smellier than a flatulent skunk after a meal of boiled cabbage. Mind you it isn’t a lot of use if you have no sense of smell as is the case with the subject of our story. In short we cannot put all our trust in the smell of the gas to save us. 3. Poor quality gas regulators Regulators are a constant source of problems and are probably the weakest link in the gas safety issue. Some are very good but many are manufactured in the backstreets of nameless cities by people who should be milking cows rather than milking their hapless customers. 4. Cylinder valves The brass valve on the top of the gas cylinder may be faulty or it may leak where it is screwed into the top of the steel cylinder. There are a lot of valves around that have been manufactured to very poor standards. 5. Rubber seals in poor condition In the top of the cylinder valve there is a small rubber ring, this provides a seal between the regulator and the brass cylinder valve. These easily get damaged and so are a common cause of gas leaks. They should be checked whenever the regulator is connected to a cylinder. When refilled by Pertamina the seal is checked and often replaced to make sure it is in good condition. 6. Rubber hoses The rubber hose that carries the gas from the regulator to your appliance will deteriorate with age, particularly if exposed to sunlight. It needs to be checked regularly and replaced if damage is found. Gas safety do’s and don’ts • Never have your gas cylinder next to your stove or in an enclosed space • Do not put your cylinder in a cupboard built into a cooking stove. • Make sure your kitchen is well ventilated. • Look for a good quality regulator and one with a gauge
on it to tell you how much gas is in the cylinder. • Check the condition of the regulator on a regular basis. • Check the condition of the rubber hose for cracks or other signs of deterioration or damage. • Before connecting a regulator always check the condition of the rubber ring seal in the brass valve on top of the gas cylinder. Keep some spare rubber rings at home so you can change them if necessary. • After you attach a regulator to a gas cylinder take the time to listen to it, if you hear a slight hissing sound remove the regulator check the rubber ring and reinstall the regulator and recheck. If in doubt buy a new regulator. • Buy your gas from a certified Pertamina distributor. Illegally Filled Gas Cylinders There is a surprisingly common practice in Indonesia that small green 3 kgm cylinders (known locally as “bom melons” owing to their similarity to rotund fruit and the tendency of illegally manufactured ones to fulminate without warning) containing 3 kgms of subsidised gas and cost Rp20,000 each are being bought and used to fill larger blue cylinders which contain 12 kgms of gas and are then sold at the much higher non subsidised price of Rp128,000. Some time ago I passed quite a large warehouse which was full of rather furtive looking people busy emptying gas from green cylinders to blue ones. The scale of their operation and the danger to the local community was frightening. This “decanting” of gas has several issues: 1. It is illegal and is not subject to normal safety regulations. 2. It is very dangerous for the people that use primitive home made equipment to transfer the gas. 3. It could be very dangerous for people living nearby or who are passing in the street. 4. The cylinders and their valves and seals are not properly checked each time the cylinders are refilled which may result in gas leaks. 5. You get less gas because the pressure in a refilled cylinder is lower than a legally filled cylinder. 6. You, Pertamina and the government are being cheated. If you suspect your gas cylinder is not legally filled you can do three things. Firstly make sure you have a pressure gauge on the gas regulator so you can check the gas pressure when you first connect it to a new cylinder. You can also weigh the cylinder, a full blue cylinder should weight 26.8 kgms. If the gas has been illegally decanted you may find that both the gas pressure and the weight of the cylinder are lower than they would be on a legally filled cylinder.

To address this very common issue the government is introducing a new system in which only people who are registered as poor people will have a card which will allow them to buy subsidised gas in the small green gas cylinders. They will be allowed to buy up to 2 cylinders a week (more if they are running a warung). It is good to know that action is being taken however we can assume that ways will be found to get around this. If you want to be sure that you are getting legally filled gas cylinders only buy your gas from an official Pertamina distributor. Cooking Stove Safety Design Most cooking stoves these days have safety features built into them to protect you. The most important is a heat activated gas shut off valve. In the gas flame for each burner there is a heat sensor which only allows the gas to flow if it is hot. The usual way this works is that, when you turn the gas on, you have to turn the knob and push it in. Holding the knob in overrides the heat sensor, it allows the gas to flow even while the heat sensor is cold. Once the gas gets ignited and the heat sensor gets hot (only a couple of seconds) the sensor will allow the gas to continue flowing and you can release the knob. If for any reason the heat sensor goes cold (let us say a gust of wind blew the gas flame out) the flow of gas will be automatically closed off to prevent a gas leak.

When you buy a gas stove check that it has heat sensors to cut off the gas. It is also very important to check that heat sensors are installed on the oven and the griller as well as the gas rings.

Say What? C/BM/G-28 Sept. 16
Question: I’m a 20-year-old college student, and for the first time ever, I have a huge crush on one of my classmates. I’m not new to dating, but I have never felt so hopelessly “into” someone before. The problem is he doesn’t seem to know I exist. Compared to the girls he dates, I suspect I’m not his type. My brain tells me to let him be (“You can’t force things to happen,”) but another part of me wants to get a haircut and buy new clothes to impress him. It feels silly. I want to either shut this whole thing down and concentrate on other matters, or convince him that I’m cool and take my fantasies to the next level. I’ve known him for about a year. How do I move forward? Or, is it just totally stupid to change things about myself in order to attract his attention? Dr. ZZ: You are way too invested in this guy and have been for far too long without speaking up. The next time you see him, the best thing to do would be to invite him out to coffee or a study break and let the chips fall as they may. If he says no, you can breeze away gracefully, and get on with your life. If he says yes, either you will find yourself in a romantic adventure, or else you can start nervously torturing yourself with pre-date jitters. Either way, you become a woman who asks men she likes out, and you don’t need a makeover. Meanwhile, if you want to cut your hair, cut your hair. If college has opened your eyes to some new, cute fashions, awesome! That’s also what crushes are about; they make you feel alive. The important thing to realize is that you don’t need to do any of this to be worthy of this guy or any other guy’s attention. In contrast to the Hollywood-Beauty Magazine-Sexism Industrial Complex that tells women not to ask men out and sells them instead on making

themselves pretty in order to be special, liking yourself as you are is a radical, powerful act. No makeover required. Question: I met my boyfriend about 4 years ago while I was on assignment in his country. He was very committed to our relationship and talked about marriage from the start. Although we usually got along well, I felt miserably alone and seemed to lose sight of who I am, what I value, and what I need and want. To be fair, I had undiagnosed anxiety and depression at the time and probably shouldn’t have been in a relationship at all, let alone a serious one. We broke up about 2 years ago, and I have been content to not be in touch with him. He has sent an occasional email about missing me, and I have mostly not answered. Now, unfortunately, he has emailed me, asking me which of two jobs to take (one is in Bali), why I left, and whether there is any hope of us getting back together. I don’t doubt that his that his feelings for me are genuine, and I feel like I owe him an explanation for why I left. At the same time, I am not interested in arguing with him about it, being friends or, worse, being partners. I don’t know whether I should write him an explanation for leaving and risk getting an angry reply, or simply ignore him and continue feeling guilty. I wish he’d move on instead of being so disturbingly persistent, but of course, not my call. Any advice? Dr. ZZ: You sound like a thoughtful person who wants to do the right thing. All this, however, is about him and a ghost of you from 2 years ago. You were here, just minding your business, and he has suddenly jumped out of nowhere begging for your love. If you fail to love him back, he’s apt to
C/Bm/I-12 Oct 16
claim you’re hurting him when, in fact, that is not true. You’ve correctly identified your two options: 1. You can not reply to him, and then he may take the job offer close to you to get “closure” or whatever he thinks he needs; 2. You can answer his email once, and never, ever have any further contact with him. That’s my recommendation. Tell him your relationship ended long ago, and you don’t feel comfortable helping him make a decision about where to live and work, but - since he asked - you want to strongly suggest that he does not move closer to you with the expectation of spending time together or renewing old ties. Explain that your time in the relationship was painful for you, and that you are not sure how much of that was due to your own depression verses the fact that you are ill-suited as a couple. Assure him that you were unhappy enough in the relationship and have no desire to revisit those years or remain in contact even as friends. Apologize for knowing how painful it will be for him that you can’t give him a satisfactory explanation, but that this is your truth. Then wish him luck with his job search and with moving forward and finding the happiness he deserves. Ask him not to contact you again and to accept this email as your final statement, signed “Sincerely.” Then, never, never, for any reason whatsoever, have any contact with him again -- even if he argues or threatens to kill himself, and even if you feel guilty and want to make things better. Set up an email filter to automatically delete his replies, and forgive yourself and the past.

Computer & Internet SOCIAL MEDIA BYTES BY : LIZ AFAIK This week, I focus on virtual physical training: workouts and classes. Although a virtual class or workout video can never really replace taking a class in-person or having a personal trainer, often issues of time, location or weather can make it much easier to watch online videos and be able to work out at home. In addition, for those of us living in Bali, apart from yoga or the gym, often the training or classes available can be limited and not inexpensive. Here’s a list of some popular online sites that offer virtual workouts and classes. Daily Burn (https://lp.dailyburn.com/s2_static/index2.html) Daily Burn lets you stream over 500 workouts taught by certi¿ed trainers. You begin by creating a personalized program and choosing workouts that are tailored to your speci¿c ¿tness levels and goals. The workouts include dance, high-intensity cardio, yoga, strength training, kettle bell training and cardio-sculpt classes, and videos range from ¿fteen minutes to an hour in length. Daily Burn provides online forums for people to chat and motivate each other on the site, which can help provide key inspiration for following a workout plan when you’re on your own. “The trainers keep me motivated, the workouts keep me engaged, and the community keeps me accountable” says one user quoted on the website. Daily Burn also offers several ‘get into shape’ intensive programs: a 21-day challenge called ‘Inferno,’ a 30-day yoga Àow progression and a 90-day lean weight gain program. The site also has a good offering of beginner-level classes in both ¿tness and yoga, i.e. the True Beginner series and Yoga Made Simple. Daily Burn offers a 30-day free trial and then charges a Àat $14.95 monthly fee after the trial ends. Fit Fusion (https://www.¿tfusion.com) This site offers pre-recorded workouts by well-known ¿tness teachers, such as Billy Blanks and Jillian Michaels and has a library of over 350 videos. Fit Fusion has a wider range of training offered than some of the other ¿tness sites: there are videos for yoga, dance, cardio, calisthenics, Pilates, stretching and strength training, as well as indoor cycling, kickboxing, ballet and barre training and Life Coaching. One aspect of Fit Fusion that I really liked was that they sort the workouts by body area: i.e. chest, arms and back or abs/core or buns and thighs. Fit Fusion offers fat burning and intensive burn series of workout challenges. The site also offers pre and post-natal ¿tness workouts for pregnant women and new mothers. Fit Fusion offers a full access by subscription for $9.99 per month or you can rent or download individual videos.

class, with a partially obstructed view (as often happens to me in real-life) you can actually ¿nd a better view and sound quality with a yoga video on this site. Grokker offers free access to a limited number of videos or you can pay a monthly fee for full access to their entire library of hundreds of videos. Videos range from ¿ve minutes to full-length classes, with many videos in the 20-30 minute range, so you have your pick of work out times and can adjust your workouts to suit your schedule. Videos are available for all levels, from beginner to advanced. Grokker also offers viewing via their own app, which you can use on tablets or smart phones. Grokker charges $14.99 per month for unlimited video access. Qinetic (https://qinetic.com) Qinetic is another site that offers both live-streaming classes on line or a library of recorded workouts of over 400 videos. Classes focus on strength and cardio routines, yoga, stretching and Àexibility routines and dance. One additional feature that Qinetic offers is a daily health and nutrition blog with advice and recipes. Qinetic also offers an online community forum, where users can interact, share advice and challenge and motivate each other. I found the site dif¿cult to navigate and could not ¿nd any pricing or subscription information. Yogaia (https://yogaia.com) This site bills itself as a ‘live, online yoga studio that ¿ts around your schedule.’ Yogaia offers the option of either joining a live class online at a set time or doing a solo practice by watching a pre-recorded session. In addition to a range of yoga styles, Yogaia also offers classes in meditation and Pilates. You can choose classes ranging from ¿fteen minutes, thirty minutes, forty-¿ve minutes to an hour. Classes are offered at a beginner, intermediate or advanced level and at three differing levels of intensity, so you can match your ¿tness and energy levels to a speci¿c class or workout. Videos are also offered in English, German and Finnish. The day I checked the site, Yogaia was offering 340 live classes in English.

The site offers a monthly subscription plan, starting at $9.99 (if you pay up front for a year) or $19.99, if you pay per month. (As of this writing, Yogaiai is offering a special introduction to the site for $30 for three months.) So, here’s a good roundup of online fitness sites, at reasonable costs, which to my way of thinking, removes those ¿nal objections as to why we can’t stay in shape even living in Bali.

MUSIC MATTERS By Toby Greetings live music aficionados’ and welcome to this mixed up edition of Music Matters here in your local Bali Advertiser. This issue we are looking at a new bar in Jimbaran making a stir, some new electro music coming your way in time for November, and the rise of festival culture and indeed festivals in Bali. So let’s begin at the end and start at the beginning with a look at a bar that used to be known simply as Sambos. I reviewed and drank here for a very long time but since moving to Sanur have had little cause to head down to Jimbaran town. But last weekend after some coaxing from my friends, I wound up on the back of my trusty moped cruising down Jalan Uluwatu one more time. The whole place has changed more hotels, more tourists, but unfortunately less bars and subsequently music. I was very sad to see one of my favourite old haunts Scruffy Murphy’s is now no more than a memory, and the bull dozers have moved in to finish off the once lively tavern. Sambos was named after the less than sober but very friendly Aussie owner however a lot changes in Bali as we all know, and he is now no longer running the show and the bar is now a different style altogether and re-branded in a nautical theme as The Boat Rocks cafe. The boat as it is now referred to locally has a full dinghy outside as a centrepiece, and is more a full on sports bar with pool tables and big screen live streamed Aussie sports, more importantly though they have made a commitment to decent home grown talent, and have live music there most nights. I was lucky to bump into one of my old favourite singers JJ and his band who more than livened up the evening with great renditions of some of the classics plus a good smattering of own Sumatran material as well. The band formerly known as Black Towers of Bali (as always) were
pretty tight and JJ as a singer pretty impressive, he is definitely suited for gruff vocals like Rod Stuart or Tom Petty and has a great hold on the audience, a true showman. The Boat Rocks cafe also has a second floor where local DJ’s spin the decks maybe three times a week and punters can relax and dance the night away all good clean fun and well worth a visit if you are in Jimbaran. The Boat Rocks is at Jl. Raya Uluwatu, 100 meter from the GWK in Jimbaran. Change is happening faster than I can write here in Bali and now something we at the musical element of the Advertiser have been calling out for is now a reality, festivals are here! A couple of weeks back I attended Soundrenaline and saw Kotak and also main stage electro fiends Bloc Party however I have written about my experiences elsewhere. Also just gone into the ether of another year, was ULTRA festival held on September 15/16th at Potato Head bar in Seminyak and featuring some of the world’s premier Elecronica DJ’s including Afrojack, Dubfire, Technasia and Reboot.
an upcoming event that should definitely be in every ones diary the 26th this month as at Jenja club. Urbanised present DJ Abstract known for dirty south Electro beats. Abstract has been making a name for himself on the world stage for some time now and has been involved with big names like Tiesto, and even I cough as I say it but Justin Bieber. In fact some of his samples are what helped drag that little punk out of total oblivion back once more into the consciousness of every muso in the whole wide world. As you can probably tell I am not a ‘beliber’ as his fans like to be known however I appreciate the guy has talent and with artists like Abstract in play doing his loops and samplings he can only go up in the world. Abstract will be supported by Goodgrip and Dubwill. Another DJ date for your diaries is AME again at Jenja on 02/03 November funnily enough my birthday, AME is another European mega electro DJ with a huge following and well worth a listen. Tickets for both shows are available through Jenjas usual email or at the door: Jenja Bali Townsquare Suites Jl. Nakula 18 Seminyak. E: infobali@clubjenja.com.
This year has also seen a host of smaller independent Indonesian festivals namely demonstrating about the reclamation of Bali and the development of areas which are deemed sacred to local people here in Sanur ‘Tolak Reklamasi’ is big big news and the festivals and bands that seem to be springing up around it are no joke. I always have said when the is a cause pain suffering or injustice that is where great, not good music is made, just look at the history of the blues musicians and how not only blues but soul reggae and even rock music started.
Ok guys well we began at the beginning and I am sad to say we are now at the end. Change is not always a good thing but in some cases it is necessary, nothing can stay the same forever just look at my receding hairline for that answer and although Sambo’s is now the Boat Rocks café and many places I used to write about are no longer there, it gives people the gauntlet to provide venues for Bali musician which fill the void. With more international artists coming every year, and massive musical events all over the island it is fair Now unfortunately by the time this is published I am pretty sure to say that the future is on a good note for Bail’s music scene. this event will have gone but on the 7th and 8th of October Until next issue keep it live and make it matter. Hard Rock Café in Kuta celebrates its 23rd anniversary and will have a host of local talent on offer including Gungan Blues If you enjoyed this article or have any questions, concerns, or shelter (a respected local band that have played at the Bali if indeed you are the illusive Chris Curtis please don’t hesitate Blues festival in Nusa Dua) and Barasuara a rock outfit from to drop me a line, here to the Bali Advertiser, or alternatively to Jakarta it should be a great night and if you’re lucky enough my direct email address tobiasjbrown@rockfan.com to have purchased the pretty reasonable RP150,000 ticket Copyright © 2016 Tobias J Brown then I might see you there. Ok enough if the past what is happening in the future? Well

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia by Bill Dalton
Bali 1964 to 2009 by Jan Mantjika Starting with a terrifyingly unwelcome reception at the hands of armed soldiers at Jakarta’s airport, Jan Mantjika’s lifetime of experiences through more than 45 years spent in Bali recalls a period of radical adjustments to life in a royal palace, the dangers and political upheavals of the mid-1960s, right up to her pioneering efforts to promote tourism on the island in the late 1960s early 1970s. After the young New Zealander arrives in Jakarta in 1964 with Djati, her Balinese husband, and their 13-month old daughter, they are rescued from a hostile interrogation session but are unable to cash their travellers cheques due to the country’s anti-capitalist stance and struggle to finance their onward journey to Bali. Finally they are able to board a flight from Jakarta in a single engine aircraft - the only ones available at the time - but with no one to meet them at Denpasar’s airport. For the first year, Jan lived with her husband’s royal family in Puri Agung Kesiman near Denpasar. Confined to the palace, Jan was stricken with a painful infection from bedbug bites. With her freckles, long Petruk-like nose and red hair the color of witches in Balinese legend, Jan encountered suspicion and an utter lack of privacy. In 1965, the family moved to the lecturer’s housing complex in Udayana University. In the same year, all hell broke loose after a bloody aborted coup in Jakarta that triggered anti-Communist massacres nation-wide. As President Sukarno was ousted and General Suharto consolidates his power, killings took place all around her. She saw a young man – a prison escapee - hacked to death by a frenzied crowd right in her own yard. During the horrific year 1966, Jan and Djati braved a curfew and gunfire to reach Sanglah Hospital for the delivery of their second child. At one point she and her husband were marked for death. The book doesn’t hold much back. It gives the Balinese their humanity - a people whose flaws and strengths covered the full range of human emotions - the kindness of her sister-in-law to the brutality of students slashing a Communist student to death. This dark period was not just pre-tourism Bali. This was another world, another reality. The family lives only on sweet potatoes, forages in ditches for snails and tiny fish and shares one egg between them for dinner. With all the unburied bodies of people who have been murdered, cholera raged through the city. All night long Jan could hear creaking pulleys bringing up buckets of water from wells to wash the dying. It took 20 years of nightmares to lay all of her ghosts to rest. Repressed in the media and by official reluctance to confront the issue, the younger generation of Indonesians isn’t even aware of the horrors that took place during the country’s most turbulent history when Suharto crushed the Communist movement and went on to rule the country from 1967 to 1998. Up to the present-day there is still no mention made in school history books of the military killings of hundreds of thousands of people and the imprisonment of tens of thousands more. But this memoir is not just about the sensational antiCommunist purges of the mid-1960s as they played out in Bali. Although the most dramatic, the writer’s accounts of this terrible period take up only about a third of the book. The remainder is a catalog of her most vivid memories gathered over almost a half century through seven Indonesian presidents: the devastation and human suffering and loss after northern Bali’s 1976 earthquake, the 1997-98 Asian economic crisis and the headlong plunge of the rupiah, the raucous mob vandalism and arson of the 1999 presidential campaign, the devastating downturn of business after the 2001 and 2005 Bali bombings. Jan also survived the drama and trauma of a broken hip, rat plagues, a human trafficking con man, the outlandish shenanigans and sexual escapades of neighbors, the laughable mishaps of travel agents and quirky and petulant
clients. She assisted delivering babies and witnessed exorcisms by powerful balian (shaman) of irresistible love spells. An amusing chapter is given over to the pets that passed through their lives: flying squirrels; Bully, the faithful overfed family dog; an irascible Rhesus monkey named Mr. Robert. The island’s tourism industry was in its infancy: no faxes or emails, no English-speaking guides and very few Balinese could speak English. Bali’s roads were potholed tracks. The island’s only high-rise was Sanur’s 10-story high Hotel Bali Beach where she helps to prepare English lessons for the staff. A hilarious account describes the frustrations of training newly recruited waiters, bellboys and maids in time for the grand opening.
C/E/I-12 Oct 16
In 1969, Jan and Djati opened Jan’s Tours, the first independent travel agency in Suharto-era Bali. Gradually, learning as they went, they started leading group tours. The Mantjikas walked and hitched rides to the airport to offer their services to disembarking passengers at a time when it had only one landing strip and no runway lights. The control tower could only contact a pilot 30 minutes before landing and parachutes had to be used to slow down larger aircraft. Clients were driven around in huge American cars, far too big for the roads. The most captivating parts of Jan’s story are her fond reminisces, eyewitness accounts and historical references. She met President Sukarno and King Sihanouk of Cambodia, the legendary Dr. A. A. Made Djelantik, governor Prof. Dr. Ida Magus Mantra, the originator of the Bali Arts Festival in 1978. We read of Djati’s older sister retelling what it was like during the Japanese occupation when advancing troops machinegunned family members and servants of Kesiman Palace.
C/E/G-12 Oct 16
With the help of hundreds of past letters and a prodigious memory, Jan is able to relive sensory details as if they happened yesterday. Her writing is at its best when she portrays family members, colleagues and other memorable personalities. She is especially adept at describing relationships and feelings, the ironies of Balinese customs and the contrasts between Balinese and Western cultures. Anyone who reads this book can’t help but absorb a wealth of information about Balinese culture, religion and society. Told from the close-up perspective of a woman living at the very heart of a high-caste Balinese family, there are anecdotes about adat tradition, social interactions, etiquette, levels of speech, the caste system, fine details of clothing, dance costumes and ceremonial attire, mystifying black magic intrigues, the oddities of servants, the practices of raising children, the running of a household, marriage customs and the difficulties of a mixed marriage. We even learn what kind of noses Balinese like, each given a different name. Grainy black and white photographs in the “Family Album” section in the back chronicle the writer’s life in Bali and the early days of tourism.
C/E/G-12 Oct. 16
Bali 1964 to 2009 is a first hand record of some of pivotal events of Bali’s postmodern era. The writer’s love of the island and her commitment to the Balinese people shines through on every page. The book particularly resonates with old Bali hands who share her personal recollections of the way Bali once was and who have seen the island go through such momentous changes over the past decades. Bali 1964 to 2009: The Shadows that Dance in and out of my Memory by Jan Mantjika, Saritaksu Editions 2015, ISBN 978-979-1173-31-5, paperback, 421 pages, 16 pages of photos.

Sunset Run (29 October) If you are feeling fit and ready to run here is the place to be. If you are not then there is plenty of time to get in practice as you wouldn’t want to miss out on Seminyak’s first charity run. Just the thought of a run reminds me of how unfit I have become but in the name of charity I think it is worth popping on a pair of trainers and at least trying to gain some stamina. Running along the beach does conjure up some exotic images and there is guaranteed to be a slight breeze and the gentle sound of waves lashing on the shore. As you run do cast your mind to two beneficiaries in Bali. Suryani Institute of Mental Health is a foundation dedicated to improving the mental health system in Bali. I am sure readers have read about the shocking conditions mental health patients have found themselves in which being highlighted by the press is beginning to lead to awareness and change. Yayasan Senyum Bali is an organization which helps people with craniofacial disabilities. The event is sponsored by Minor Hotels, PER AQUUM Niyama, Banana Island Resort, Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas, Anantara The Palm Dubai, Anantara Hoi An Resort, AVANI QuyNhon, Tijili Seminyak, Celebrity Fitness, Coca Cola Amatil, Our Daily Dose, Siloam Hospital, Larasati Printing, Mandiri Bank, Mix Media, CityMagz, The Traveler, What’s Up Bali, Cosmopolitan, Fitness For Men, Indonesia Expat, Hello Bali, Hard Rock Radio Bali, Oz Radio Bali, Bali Advertiser, Bali & Beyond, I News TV, Tribun Bali, What’s New Bali, What’s New Jakarta, Bali Inspirasi, NOW! Bali and Essential Bali. I have actually taken the time to mention these as there are so many organisations who support initiatives such as this behind the scenes and without which it would be difficult to achieve such enormous successes. Raffle prizes are amazing and one lucky winner will be able to stay at an Per Aquamm Resort in the Maldives. The cost includes entry, a t-shirt, a bottle of water and an USD8 shopping voucher for sport apparel. Tickets can be purchased at Yayasan Senyum Bali shops in Ubud, ‘Our Daily Dose’ store at Seminyak Village, Oz Radio Bali office and at the Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort where the run will start and end. The community is invited to participate in this first ever fun run. If you are really not in the mood for a run then do come along and lend your support to those running, the organisers, sponsors and of course the charities that this run is in aid of.

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton
similar to the classic French style of illustrating, require a certain discipline and self-control. They have the specific job of describing a place or a thing in two dimensions. Take for example, an illustration of a bug for a book about natural history. It must be an accurate, closely observed bug. It cannot be an image about how I feel about bugs or my particular mood that day. Illustration is not at all about the illustrator. It must be exclusively about the object being portrayed. Tell us about your abstract art.
Bruce Granquist: Illustrator and Abstract Artist Bruce Granquist was born in a small farm town just north of Chicago. His family moved often, but they always stayed close to the city lights of Chicago. Bruce was to spend half his life in America’s Midwest and still has a strong feeling for the region. He arrived in Indonesia as an artist specializing in abstract expressionist painting, and continues in this oeuvre to this day. In the mid-1990’s he began working with several publishers in S.E. Asia as an illustrator and mapmaker. He felt an affinity to this kind of work, which required very detailed, watercolor paintings, eventually contributing to more than 25 publishing projects. Bruce is currently hosting a solo exhibition of his abstract paintings at Ubud’s TiTian Gallery. Entitled Inhale-Exhale, the exhibition is an attempt to tie all of the artist’s work together into one creative circle. When was your first visit to Indonesia?
Eventually all the visual material that I produce making the illustrations is transformed into complex abstract images. In contrast to the illustrations, these paintings are very much about how I feel and how I think. In creating them, I have limitless freedom and only need to be faithful to the inspiration that motivated them. Can you give examples? I could be painting a illustration of a leaf, but then start seeing in it as an abstract form. Or stylizing an abstract calligraphic line in layers, and then begin to see in it the moves of a dancer. It is the balance between these two processes – the naturalistic and abstract - that enliven and motivate all my artwork.

Yes! Take the image of a doorpost at the venerable temple of Pura Geria Sakti in Kendran village, an important temple full of fine and intricate architectural forms. Compared with the magnificence of this shrine, my painting of it is rather a humble representation, a simple doorpost. But what makes this doorpost extraordinary is how nature is reclaiming it. As the moss grows over the porous soft stone, it creates different spaces, different dimensions. It seems there is a miniature universe on display there. Is your painting style grounded in Balinese philosophy? The Balinese belief system of Buana Alit and Buana Agung comes to mind. Literally translated ‘big world- small world,” this philosophy essentially refers to the macrocosmosmicrocosmos dichotomy. There are very subtle and esoteric interpretations of this concept, but the most common, dayto-day understanding is that each person is an identical copy of the universe in miniature. Each of us contains all the elements of the world at large, only on a vastly smaller scale. Although we are all fragments, we are participants in a larger entity. Have you held exhibitions?
What gave you the idea of becoming an artist?
What is the exhibition all about?
It’s hard for me to imagine not being an artist. My parents tell me that I was drawing before I learned to walk. This art making activity has never stopped.
I have displayed two different types of work for this exhibition. There are realistic illustrations that have faithfully absorbed the complexity of the world at large. Examples are my watercolor overview of Lake Tamblingan and the Balinese canang sari offering. This part of the exhibition I call Inhale. The other works displayed, the abstract works, I call Exhale. These absorb the underlying forms of illustrations, then mix and change them to form something completely new.
I was never really sure about the need for going to school to learn art. I instead took the route of getting a general education with a major in art. This was my father’s idea and later in my life I realized it was good advice. I never fully embraced the need for a formal art education and was in and out of three different colleges. I finally got an undergraduate diploma after several unsteady and circuitous years.

Are you able to make something abstract out of a mundane object?
In 1980 I spent a semester at the University of Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand, studying Buddhist Art and Architecture. During the course I was introduced to Borobudur, and decided to make the journey to central Java to see the famous monument for myself. This visit convinced me that Indonesia was where I wanted to live. I moved to Bali in 1986 and have been here ever since.

Restaurant Review
By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com
Nuri Comes South! Naughty Nuri’s has become one of those go-to eating houses for all tourists to Bali. No one fully understands why, which is probably why it happened? A street-side warung, more dingy than trendy, originally with a half drum barrel-BBQ in front, almost on the ragged footpath.
Another option is the plate of Pork Buns, 5 mini rolls to be exact, also stuffed with both pulled pork and that BBQ sauce. As with just about all of the dishes served here they are large plates that are meant to be shared, which makes the very reasonable prices, even more so.
At Naughty Nuri’s Ubud nothing much has changed, except the constant flow of customers. Now there is an alternative, albeit with a bit of style. Naughty Nuri’s Kerobokan [they call it Seminyak] on Jln. Mertanadi, is an official franchise of the Ubud original, but one that has been very professionally set up by that roving food consultancy team of Roland and Ifah. When you first look into a kitchen at any new restaurant you can immediately tell if it was designed by an architect or a chef. This one looks as if it is straight from a 5 star hotel. Park in the spacious car park at the rear of the restaurant and as you walk through to the restaurant proper check the kitchen as you pass. Definitely no hygiene problems here! The toilet block is equally as impressive, in fact everything about this franchise reeks of professionalism. Now to the food, and that does not disappoint. Needless to say the Pork Ribs take pride of place, prepared, marinated and grilled to the original exact recipe, the accompanying BBQ sauce perfect! A hackneyed phrase, and one that I have been guilty of using time and again BUT….the almost fat-less meat does really fall of the bones! The BBQ sauce has a nice tang to it, a perfect match. However one the major reasons for eating at Naughty Nuri’s Seminyak is the ‘variation on a theme’ with their clever menu. Pork predominates but as with the BBQ sauce they are both found in a number of other dishes, and all tempt the taste buds! Spring Rolls. Just about every Bali restaurant has some version of Lumpia on their menu. It is hard to fund one better than what is offered here. Pulled Pork is a term that mystifies all non-Americans. In their attempt to re-write the English dictionary, for ‘pulled’ read ‘shredded’. The thin crisp shells are stuffed with pulled pork that has been drenched in that BBQ sauce. Fantastic!
QUICK REVIEW Restaurant
: Naughty Nuri’s Seminyak.
All restaurants also offer Sate, but whilst the choice here is either chicken or pork, both are marinated and served soaked with the same famous sauce. Big chunks of tender meat so you can actually taste it, unlike the burnt slivers served at street-side stands.
Address
: Jl. Mertanadi 62, Kerobokan.
Telephone
: 847.6783.
Open
: 11.00 a.m. to 10.00 p.m., daily.
Straight pork dishes include a thick tender Pork Chop or Pork Paillard, which is tenderloin that has been grilled. My favourite pork dish here is on the snack list; Pork Poppers, 6 tasty bites, crumbed balls of pulled pork with a surprise centre stuffing of smoky apple sauce, wow!
Smoking Area
: Yes.
Parking
: Large car park at rear of restaurant.
Price
: Rp. 400,000 for two [+ drinks].
Credit Cards
: Visa, Mastercard.
Prefer Beef? Their Burgers are one of the best. A double beef patty, fully prepared in the kitchen not bought-in, is wedged between double layers of smoky BBQ cheese slices, very, very good! If you want your beef solid, not minced then the imported Fillet Mignon is perfect. There are also Chicken options, a Grilled Breast with local favouriite Sambal Matah, Sate or in a healthy Oriental Chicken Salad. For something completely different there is a lamb curry, Tong Seng.
Food
: Ribs, plus much more!
Wine
: Limited selection.
Service
: Happy!
Atmosphere
: A buzz!
Overall
: Great value, tasty food!
Non-smoking Area : Yes.
Have you ever eaten fish wings? I had not and I must say that the experience quite amazed me. The ‘wings’ of Barramundi are torn off, a chunk of very tender sweet flesh with fins attached. They are deep-fried till very crisp, unusual and so good I had to go back and try them again! A great contrast between the crunchy fins and skin and the ever-sosweet barramundi flesh found just behind them [similar to the sweet flesh found just behind the eyes]. Desserts are local standard – Pandan Crepes and Banana Fritters, with the exception of their Umpa Lumpa Shake! The taste is better than the name and if chocolate is your thing then do not miss it, a cross between a milkshake and a dessert. They have a well-stocked bar with a full range of spirits even the exotics [Snow Leopard Vodka, Herradura Anjio Tequila, Ron Zacapa 23 y-o Rum and Macallan single malt], and friendly bubbling service. The owners are always there, as they say in Paris…Les Patrons mange ici! The bosses eat here, unless my long-forgotten French is wrong? Naughty Nuri’s Seminyak [located in Kerobokan] is a great place for a pig-out, or just a series of tasty snacks, with a drink or two. Great value!

Update Stiff Chilli on the beach at Semawang, south of Sanur, has been re-born! It began its life as a simple little warung when Rodney Holt took it over back in 2003 [because he liked to spend his Sundays there]. Now there is a new Stiff Chilli, totally renovated, and quite stylishly so as well, and a new owner and chef, Aussie Rob Brierley. Added, beachside, has been a raised covered terrace, the sports lounge, where you can now enjoy a range of tasty snacks [not Spanish but you can still call them ‘tapas’] whilst following your favourite team. These tapas include a few different skewers [spicy fish, chicken & pineapple or chorizo and prawn], old favourite Italian Arancini [deep-fried balls of rice, chicken and mushroom, with a tasty nut of mozzarella at their centre], Spanish Meatballs and a selection of Sliders, what the Americans call mini hamburgers. Stiff Chilli opens for breakfast [7.00 a.m.] for the divers and early risers who want a peaceful breakfast by the sea. Most popular are the Big Brekky [eggs, bacon, sausage, baked beans, hash brown, tomato and toast], Eggs Benedict or Bacon & Egg Burger. This is the perfect location for an all day snack and what could be better than an Aussie-Italian marriage; Steak Sandwich [pictured], strips of tender beef with caramelized onions, lettuce and tomato between slabs of toasted focaccia. All of Rodney’s old favourites are still on the menu as well as many of Rob’s creations. The cuisine is still mainly Italian but now with many international additions. Great taste, great value, and a setting that makes you believe that you are on holidays, even if you are not.
Cafe des Artistes on Jln. Bisma, Ubud, has always been the innovator amongst the moderately priced restaurants of Ubud. Once again reverting to their Belgian heritage they have introduced one of Belgium’s most popular culinary treats, Mussels. These are not those awful green-lipped version but the real thing; a dark orange mollusc from a black shell, specially imported. At CDA they are served either Natural or in a white wine sauce. Meals of Mussels are so popular in Belgium that there are even mussel only restaurants such as the famous Chez Leon on Brussel’s Grand Place. As with Chez Leon in Brussels, Café des Artistes on Bisma also often has a queue of customers, waiting for a vacant table.
Spice Mantraa provided Bali with the biggest recent restaurant opening of the year. An impressive building on Jln. Kartika Plaza, it is in front of, and a part of, the parking area of Waterbom Park. Owned by a major company group from Dubai, they are seriously here to stay. It is a multi-level site, air-con inside but with a ‘smoking’ terrace. The place appears to have something for everyone. Spice Mantraa presents traditional cuisine from all over India but often with modern interpretations. Lamb Marag is a soup from Hyderabad, Corriander Rasam an aromatic coconut milk soup from the Tamils. Crisp-fried fish, butter poached prawns, fresh raw papaya, julien of carrots and cherry tomatoes tossed in a sweet and spicy piquant dressing makes a sensational salad. For variety you can have a Samosa from Delhi, a Slider from Mumbai via America [the lamb mini burger was sensational] or a Pizza from The Punjab. A monster menu offers a ‘million’ different tastes.
Cocoon, Jln. Double Six at Blue Ocean Beach, Legian is always the ‘first cab off the rank’ when it comes to organizing special events. As usual their Melbourne Cup Day is almost fully booked, there are just a few tables left [tel: 731.266]. Kentucky may have their Derby and Aintree their Grand National but there is only one Melbourne Cup! It truly is the race that stops a nation. Many pictures have been taken of main Australian city streets, totally deserted on this day at mid afternoon, as everyone is either at a Melbourne Cup party or clustered in front of a shop window that is showing the race on TV. The 1st Tuesday of November is the day, this year November 1, and at Cocoon you can enjoy a day’s fun, food, drink and maybe even pick the winner. Canapes are served from 9.30 a.m., lunch from11.00 a.m. The all inclusive cost, with free flow beverages, is Rp.1,250,000 Net. The lunch is at Cocoon’s highest standard, so it is difficult to choose between so many interesting dishes. For Entrée the choice is between a Prawn Cocktail, Roasted Beetroot Salad, Blue Swimmer Crab Ravioli, Angus Beef Carpaccio, Duck Salad or Sushi Plate. Mains are just as interesting; Half Lombok Lobster, Chicken Saltimbocca, Char-grilled Swordfish, Green Tea stir-fried Soba Noodles, Beef Eye Fillet, Sea Bass or Crisp Skin Pork Belly. Finish with dessert.

restaurant to make it on The Bypass, Sanur. Japanese owned but with an international menu, it is a very stylish little café, nicely sir-conditioned inside with a couple of ‘smoking’ tables on the front covered terrace. Open early for breakfast [8.00 a.m.] closing very late [1.00 a.m.], for Sanur, serving those late night munchies or a necessary coffee on the way home after an evening out. Breakfast can be their Special [scrambled eggs, mushroom, bacon, hash browns and tomato] or the simple, healthy, Almond Butter Toast or maybe French Toast with apple and cinnamon, drizzled with maple syrup. A more substantial breakfast is their Mexican duo; Heuvos Rancheros or The Breakfast Quesadilla [egg, mushroom, peppers and cheese]. All day snacks include sandwiches [served in a hamburger bun] such as Egg with caramelised onions, honey and melted cheese or a peppery Cajun Chicken. Another is Teriyaki Chicken, surprisingly the only Japanese offering on the menu. Wraps, Hot Dogs and Burgers are also offered at this trendy little café.

Queens of India in Tandjung Benoa, brought quality Indian cuisine to the Nusa Dua area. The Queens Tandoor Group already had their flagship, Queens Tandoor, in Seminyak and the first Queens of India in front of The Dynasty Hotel in Kartika Plaza. Queens Tandjung Benoa is the first of the group to get a design and menu upgrade, the others are following. The lunch and dinner menu features a wide selection of Koyle ka Kamaal (dishes hot from the Tandoor), together with Murg (chicken specialties), Ghosht (lamb), Samudaree Khazana (fish and prawn), and Bageeche se (from the vegetable garden). Specifically at Queen’s of India, Tanjung Benoa, they also offer a selection of Mumbai Chaat – savoury Indian snacks typically served as street food including Sev Puri, Bhel Puri, Pani Puri and Dahi Puri. Puri is unleavened bread that is deep fried until it puffs up like a round ball, which is golden-brown in colour. Another specialty is the hot vegetarian South Indian cuisine, where rice is combined with lentils and dhal, curried vegetables and pachadi (yogurt) to produce Masala Dosa, Sambhar and Uttapam, all of which are not only healthy but easy on the digestion due to the fermentation process. Apart from their many meat offerings Queens restaurants also serve the tastiest vegetarian dishes in Bali. Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com

- 1/4 cup raisins - 1 ripe mango cut into 1 1/2 cm x 1 1/2 cm pieces - 2 Tbl. coriander leaf, chopped - 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds Directions:
I’d forgotten about this tabouli recipe we used to make years ago. So when I came across it recently I tried it with a few additions (I just can’t leave a recipe alone....). It’s loaded with protein and keeps for several days in the fridge, where it just gets better.
Mango and Chickpea Tabouli Serves 4-6
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice - 2 limes, juiced - 1 1/2 Tbl. Indian curry powder, toasted in a dry frying pan - 2/3 cup yogurt - 1 tsp. orange zest, grated - just the orange part not the white pith - 1 cup cooked rice or quinoa
In medium sized bowl mix the orange and lime juices, the curry powder, yogurt, and the orange zest. When this is well mixed add the cooked rice or quinoa and stir again. Now add the garbanzo beans and raisins, mixing well. Finally add the mango pieces and the chopped coriander leaf and mix gently. Set the tabouli aside, covered, for at least an hour for the flavors to mix and mature. When you are ready to eat turn it onto a serving dish and garnish with the toasted almonds. This tabouli keeps well in the fridge. If you plan to have leftovers, don’t sprinkle all the almonds on at once but save some for when it comes out of the fridge and sprinkle on just before serving. Enjoy your meal!
- 1 can (439g) garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained All recipes are available on the Bali Advertiser website in both English and Indonesian versions. You can easily copy and paste and print.

Local News Suitcase Killer Says ‘Half-Premeditated and Half Not’ The woman locked up in a Balinese prison for murdering her mother and stuffing her body in a suitcase has opened up about the night of the killing and said that it was ‘half pre-meditated.’
Mack says she had been close with her father, composer James Mack, and would tell him when her mother was abusive towards her.
Heather Mack was sentenced to ten years inside Indonesia’s notorious Kerobokan prison for the death of her mother, Chicago socialite Sheila von Wiese-Mack.
She said this led to her parents being violent with each other and she admitted to hitting her mother too. But after her father’s death in 2006, she said her relationship with her mother grew even more strained.
Mack’s then-boyfriend Tommy Schaefer bludgeoned Wiese-Mack to death with a metal fruit bowl at her suite at the Saint Regis Bali resort in August 2014.
Mack claims she had been pregnant before Stella and her mother had called her a slut and threatened to kill the unborn child when she found out.
In an interview with Crime Watch Daily, Mack opened up about the night her mother was killed and why they put her body inside the suitcase. ‘He smacked her… over and over and over again,’ she said, referring to Schaefer who later confessed to the killing during their trial last year.
She claims her mother had had a similar reaction when she and Schaefer told her in Bali that they were having a baby – and had gone looking for a knife.
He was sentenced to 18 years in prison. ‘I remember [Schaefer] trying to hug me and he had blood all over his shirt.’ Mack, 20, claims she refused to leave her mother’s body when Schaefer told her they had to run. ‘I want to bring her [with us]. I want to bring her in a suitcase. I’m not leaving her here,’ she says she told Schaefer. ‘I was just hugging her and hugging her. I wouldn’t let her go.’ But Mack also said of the murder: ‘I think it was half-premeditated and half not. ‘In my head, I never thought it was going to happen, but in my heart sometimes I wanted it to.’ In the interview conducted over the phone from the Bali prison where Mack is serving her sentence along with her baby daughter Stella, she also revealed the volatile relationship she had with her mother.
‘I told her I was pregnant and she went around the room looking for a knife,’ Mack said. ‘She started dropping the n-word. She was telling me that this was when I was gonna die. I said, “Tommy help me and he just smacked her over and over again.’ Schaefer had flown to Bali - with his $12,000 plane ticket paid for with Wiese-Mack’s credit card - because Mack was feeling suicidal, she said. When Mack’s mother realized what had happened, she ‘went nuts,’ according to Mack. When Schaefer hit her mother, Mack claims she hid in the bathroom. After her mother died, she said Schaefer - his green shirt stained red from her mother’s blood - hugged her. ‘I remember thinking, ‘Why is he hugging me with my mother’s blood all over his shirt?’ ‘At that moment I turned to ice and I didn’t melt for six months.’ (September 29th 2016)
Sara Connor Asks to be Moved; David Taylor Says Sorry Australian mother of two Sara Connor has asked to be moved to a more comfortable Bali jail cell because she is suffering from ‘extreme stress’. Ms Connor and her British boyfriend David Taylor are the prime suspects in the murder of Bali police officer Wayan Sudarsa, whose bloodied body was found on Kuta beach August 17. Ms Connor, who has been living in a ‘small dark cell’ with another woman, is not coping well with the stress, according to Yahoo News. Her lawyer Erwin Siregar said his client wanted room to exercise and asked that she be moved. In the month since Ms Connor and her British boyfriend were arrested for the Bali police officer’s murder, the couple has been under ongoing interrogation by Indonesian authorities. The pair were even forced to give their version of events and re-enact the night of the murder. But the interrogation continues, as more details come to light. The boyfriend of Byron Bay woman Sara Connor has “come up with the courage” to apologize to the family of a police officer found dead on Kuta beach. British DJ David Taylor, 34, and Ms Connor, 45, have been named suspects over the death of Balinese police officer and father-of-two Wayan Sudarsa, who died after being brutally bashed on August 17. Mr. Taylor’s lawyer, Haposan Sihombing, said Mr. Taylor told police during a further interrogation on Friday that about two weeks ago he had hand-written a letter to Mr. Sudarsa’s family to apologize. “He will try to come up with the courage and apologize. He’s very sorry, it takes time for him to come up with the courage to apologize because the incident caused the victim his life.” Ms Connor, who was further interrogated on Monday, insists she is innocent and was trying to separate Mr. Sudarsa and Mr. Taylor as they were fighting on the beach in order to protect the victim.
Her legal team says she was under the impression the police officer had only passed out and was shocked to later learn he had died. Mr. Sudarsa’s bloodied corpse was found spread-eagled in the sand, with 42 wounds including gruesome head injuries. Police say Ms Connor cut up Mr. Sudarsa’s identity cards and threw them away. “It was Sara who cut [them] up. The intention was to get rid of evidence,” Denpasar police chief Hadi Purnomo said last month. The couple later burned the bloodied clothes they had been wearing on the night of Mr. Sudarsa’s death before going to the Australian Consulate for assistance. Ms Connor’s lawyer, Erwin Siregar, said he did not agree with the charges proposed by the police for his client. He said under further interrogation on Monday, Ms Connor had told police she was 50 meters away searching for her handbag by the beach when Mr. Taylor and Mr. Sudarsa were fighting. “When she arrived at the incident scene she tried to separate David and the victim, as a result she fell on top of the victim,” Mr. Siregar said. He said Mr. Sudarsa then bit her on the leg and hand and pulled her hair. Mr. Siregar said Mr. Taylor then pried her hair free from the police officer’s hand and Ms Connor resumed the search for her handbag. Mr. Siregar believed that even if Ms Connor were to be found guilty, it could only be for trying to get rid of evidence, which carries a maximum of nine months’ jail. However he said given this is not one of the charges against her that prosecutors are considering, she should have been freed. The strain is showing on Ms Connor, who has requested to be transferred from her cell in Denpasar police station to holding cells where other prisoners are kept so she can exercise and interact with others. This is likely to happen on Monday or Tuesday. (September 26th 2016)
Bali Police Anti-Narcotics Chief Nabbed for Alleged Extortion Bali Police anti-narcotics unit chief Sr. Comr. Franky Haryanto Parapat was reportedly arrested for the alleged extortion of arrested drug dealers, including a Dutch national. Franky was nabbed at around 10 p.m. on Monday (20/09) in a sting operation conducted by the National Police’s internal security division (Paminal). National Police chief Gen. Tito Karnavian expressed his satisfaction with the arrest, as the institution is stepping up efforts to curb the illegal drug trade. “I have not heard the details. If it is true, I commend the National Police’s Paminal and Propam [internal affairs division] for having carried out my orders. I said in several meetings lately that my policy is to fight against drugs,” Tito said at the National Police Hospital in East Jakarta. Tito said he instructed the police’s internal affairs and security affairs divisions to back up these efforts by closely monitoring officers who are suspected of cooperating with drug dealers. National Police spokesman Insp. Gen. Boy Rafli Amar said the internal affairs and security affairs divisions are still investigating the case involving the mid-ranking officer. “If we find proof of any crime, we will charge him. But it is still the authority of the Bali provincial police chief,” Boy said. According to unconfirmed reports, Franky allegedly extorted money from seven suspected drug dealers and drug users – who had been arrested for possessing less than 0.5 grams of crystal methamphetamine. He reportedly received around Rp 100 million ($7,600) from each person. He allegedly also demanded a Toyota Fortuner SUV from a Dutch national, who was arrested in a drug raid. (September 20th 2016) Volcanic Ash from Mount Rinjani Forces Evacuation / Flight Cancellation Volcanic Ash from Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island has forced the evacuation of tourists and locals as well as the cancellation of flights. The volcano, a popular attraction that is known as the Child of Rinjani because it sits within the Mount Rinjani caldera, erupted without warning on Tuesday (27/9) afternoon, delaying flights from the international airport on nearby Bali. The ash column reached 2,000 meters (6,560 feet). Heronimus Guru, deputy operations chief at Indonesia’s Search and Rescue Agency, said Wednesday that the remaining tourists, about 50 people who are mostly foreigners, were heading down the mountain. Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said more than 1,100 tourists left the Mount Rinjani area on Tuesday. A similar number left Wednesday. There have been no reports of injuries from the eruption. Nugroho said government scientists have declared a danger zone of 3 kilometers (1.6 miles) around the crater and raised the volcano’s alert to the third highest level, but some tourists did not immediately heed warnings to leave because they wanted to take photos or videos of the eruption. The eruption interrupted flights for several hours at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali, airport officials said. Both Tigerair Australia and Jetstar have confirmed the cancellation of a number of flights. Tigerair said a scheduled Tuesday night flight from Perth to Bali and a Wednesday morning flight from Bali to Melbourne would not be operating because of volcanic activity from Indonesia’s Mount Rinjani. Farms and trees around the 3,726-meter (12,224-foot) -high volcano were coated in a thin layer of gray ash, but nearby towns and villages were not in danger, Nugroho said. Rinjani is among about 130 active volcanoes in Indonesia. The archipelago is prone to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes because of its location on the Pacific “Ring of Fire.” (September 28th 2016)

Singaporean Flight Crew Nabbed with Drugs in Bali The airport authorities in Bali have arrested a Singaporean for drug possession, the second bust involving a Singapore citizen at the holiday hot spot in the past month. The suspect, identified as Goh Thiam Ann Desmond, was caught with 1.47g of methamphetamine and two ecstasy pills when he arrived at Bali’s Ngurah Rai International Airport on Monday (Oct 3) night. The illicit drugs were placed in two separate plastic sachets kept in a black wallet, Mr Budi Harjanto, the head of the airport’s customs and excise office, told a press conference on Tuesday (Oct 4). Goh is said to be an air cabin crewmember, but the authorities did not reveal which airline he works for because he was on holiday when he was arrested. The 42-year-old now faces a fine and a five- to 15-year jail term if found guilty of drug offences, said Mr. Budi. Last month, a Singaporean working illegally as a deejay was arrested for drug trafficking in Bali. (October 4th 2016) Arrivals of European Tourists in Bali up 59.4% The number of European tourists arriving in Bali in this summer season increased 59.4 percent from 76,822 in June to 122,455 in July 2016. “The increase of European tourist arrivals is the fruit of the efforts made by the government and tourism industries in promoting Indonesia, especially Bali, in Europe and Asia,” tourism observer Dewa Nyoman Putra said here on Tuesday (27/9). Besides the impact of the intensive promotions and expanded security, the increase in European tourist arrivals is also triggered by the visa-free facility the Indonesian government provides for a number of countries. The tourism service of Bali recorded the average European tourist arrivals in Bali at some 76,000 per month. However, arrivals rose to 122,455 in July, so that in the January-July 2016 period, the number of foreign tourist arrivals from Europe reached 583,463. European tourist arrivals in Bali account for 21.17 percent of the total foreign tourists arriving in Bali in the same period, in which 2.7 million foreign tourists visited Bali. (September 27th 2016) Porn Film Plays on Jakarta Billboard An explicit pornographic video was broadcast on a public billboard in broad daylight in Jakarta, with police and cyber crime specialists yesterday searching for the culprit behind the gaffe. The offending clip of a couple engaged in a steamy tryst beamed at peak hour on Friday (30/9), shocking and amusing motorists in equal measure as they crawled along the major road in heavy traffic. The power was quickly shut off to the “videotron”, but not before the whole scandalous incident was captured on motorists’ phones and sent viral on social media. The video file-titled “Watch Tokyo Hot”-appeared to be streaming from a personal computer. Police are still searching for a motive behind the “videotron” scandal, Jakarta metropolitan police said in a statement yesterday. A specialist cyber crime unit had joined the investigation to determine whether the broadcast was
deliberate or hacking was involved, the police’s head of public relations Awi Setiyono said. Police have seized a computer from the offices of a private company as part of their investigation, he added. Access to pornographic websites is blocked in Muslim majority Indonesia, and romantic scenes in films and television programs are heavily blurred or cut altogether by state censors. (September 30th 2016) World’s Ugliest Stuffed Tiger Seized in Indonesian Wildlife Raid Images have emerged of what may be the world’s worst taxidermy job. It’s believed the tiger found in Indonesia may have been seized as a part of raids to stamp out the smuggling and illegal trading of wildlife in places like Southeast Asia. Indonesian police with Jakarta Animal Aid Network and the Wildlife Conservation Society seized tiger skins and other illegal animal parts during raids on September 23 in west Java. Alongside the tiger other taxidermy animals were round, including other big cats and various birds. Authorities plan to set fire to a stockpile of tiger skins and other illegal animal parts in an effort to discourage wildlife smuggling. According to the World Wildlife Fund, an ‘unprecedented’ spike in illegal wildlife trade is at present occurring worldwide. It’s reached such a level that it threatens to reverse decades of progress in conservation. Often the illegal trade is run by international networks in a fashion similar to drugs or weapons trafficking and is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, the WWF said.

Bali Police Say 1,500 Bags of Ammonium Nitrate Was for Fish-Bombing A large quantity of ammonium nitrate smuggled into Indonesia was allegedly to be used for illegal fish bombing, police in Bali say. An estimated 30 tonnes of ammonium nitrate was confiscated from a boat that arrived from Malaysia Wednesday night (21/9), sparking concerns of terrorism. The head of Customs in Bali said ammonium nitrate is a fertilizer that could be used in explosive material. Fish bombing is the practice of using explosives to stun or kill schools of fish. Police were investigating a potential link to terrorism, but have all but ruled that out. “I can only say that some of the usage of this ammonium nitrate is to make homemade fish-bombs, so far there is no link to terrorism,” Brigadier General Agung Setya told the media in Bali this afternoon. The ammonium nitrate was found in 1,500 sacks on board the boat, which was intercepted in waters off the east coast of Bali. Police say South Sulawesi was meant to be the final destination and six Indonesian suspects have been detained. “This is some kind of fertilizer and on its own there’s not a problem but once it is mixed it can be used as an explosive,” Husni Saiful, the head of Bali Customs told the press. Bali police said the boat did not have a permit to enter Indonesian waters. Brigadier Setya said last month police arrested a “kingpin” in a similar smuggling case also linked to illegal fishing.

MICROCHIPPING YOUR PET There are several reasons to get your pet microchipped. The main reason is that while collars with tags can and do fall off, a microchip is permanent. Ear tattoos are also not a reliable means of identification, so a microchip is the only way of proving beyond doubt that a lost/stolen pet actually belongs to you.
are a cat owner who wants to ensure that only your cat can come and go from your home while other cats are blocked, consider a microchip cat flap. The flap only swings open when it detects your cat’s microchip nearby – otherwise it remains firmly locked. Pet Travel
The second reason is that if you ever plan to travel across borders with your dog in the future, a microchip is the first step in the pet transport documentation process. Dogs that Wander Off Some dogs are escape artists or get carried away on a beach walk, and manage to get lost, without any malicious human involvement. In these circumstances it helps hugely to have a well-fitted collar on with a nametag showing the owner’s phone number. If you are lucky, the dog will be found by a good Samaritan who will promptly call the owner and help reunite them with their dog. Sunset Vet offers high quality US made aluminum tags engraved with your pet’s name and your phone number for a fee of Rp.125k (large tag) or Rp.100k (small tag). Available in 6 colors. Dog Theft You may have laughed at Ace Ventura Pet Detective, but he would certainly be kept busy in Bali. Dog theft here is rampant, be it by agents of the dreaded RW dog meat restaurants, or by thieves looking to sell a breed dog to an ill-educated owner to imprison in a glorified hamster cage. The dog thieves prowl the gangs, waiting to pounce when they see an unattended breed dog in a garden, or any dog friendly enough to not scarper when approached. In desperation to retrieve their beloved stolen pet, owners offer a considerable financial reward on posters and flyers which sadly can encourage further theft (though the owner is left no choice really but to go down this route). Even if dog meat thieves are caught they are seldom punished with any severity – and as long as they keep getting away with it, they will keep on doing it. A microchip is not a GPS tracking device, it does not allow you to pinpoint the location of your lost/stolen pet. However, if your pet is sold by the thief, or if you are lucky enough to find your pet for sale in the famous ‘pasar burung’ in Denpasar where many breed dogs are sold on, the buyer is quite likely to take him or her to a veterinary clinic at some point in the future. At Sunset Vet we frequently receive reports of stolen dogs to look out for, so any pet identified as suspiciously resembling one from a missing pet report can have it’s ownership rapidly confirmed if our scanner picks up a microchip. Outdoor Cats Cats given the license to roam around outdoors, especially in urban areas, run the risk of being involved in road traffic accidents. If the cat is not killed on impact, its instinct will be to bolt and then hide somewhere in the vicinity of the incident. Often it is not the owner of the cat who brings the injured creature to the veterinary clinic, and there are numerous cases of cats injured in road traffic accidents having being reunited with their owners via their microchips.
Worldwide the standard protocol for transporting animals internationally is: 1. Microchipping 2. Rabies vaccination 3. Blood test to check rabies vaccine was successful Bali has special restrictions on pet transport due to the existence of rabies on the island so it is important to clarify requirements with a pet transport agency first. What is the procedure for implanting a microchip? A microchip is about the size of a grain of rice. It is injected under the skin in the scruff, on the back of the neck between the shoulder blades. It is quite a large needle, so can cause a sharp pain when inserted, though many animals do not even notice as there are so few nerves in the skin there. It can be done at any time, sedation is not usually necessary. However most vets prefer not to microchip puppies or kittens until they are at least 12 weeks old, or preferably when they are under anesthetic while being neutered.
C/NV/U-25 May 16
Does it migrate around the body? It should not move far from where it was injected. There have been rare reports of microchips migrating out of position, making them difficult to locate. However this is extremely rare, and scanners are very good at picking up the microchip signal when slowly Microchip compared to grain of rice moved over the back. How does it work? The chip contains a long number that is unique for that particular animal. When scanned by a handheld RFID scanner (at Sunset Vet for example) the number comes up on the screen. This number can Scanning for a microchip then be entered into a national database, which stores the name of the owner, the owner’s address, telephone numbers and email address. Is it expensive? At Sunset Vet, implanting a microchip can be done during a routine consultation for a fee of Rp.450k.

BA Feature Article
The Doleful Bane of Debt By Ines Wynn Debt is not always a result of compulsive overspending; it is often caused by under-earning and an inability to budget according to the life you have as opposed to the one you want. The Causes - Many criteria play a role in the origins of debts. Basically, debts can be incurred due to u n f o r e s e e n circumstances of life or simply as a result of our own willful b e h a v i o r s . Sometimes people are swept up in natural or man-made calamities and are faced with extraordinary ¿nancial outlays and burdens in order to recover and get their lives back on an even keel. Often these ¿nancial setbacks have to be resolved by incurring debt. If it is a matter of survival, the choices are sometimes very limited. Think about medical emergencies if you have little or no health insurance, or an “act of God” event that is not covered by house insurance. A spouse –or both- losing their jobs in a severe economic downturn. In other cases, the family income is not adequate to support basic needs and the only way to survive is to borrow. The list can go on. On the other hand, mounting debts can also be caused by our own willful behaviors and compulsive overspending habits. A shopaholic who cannot pass up a “bargain”, whether it is an affordable or wise purchase or not; or a family that is consistently living beyond their means just because they want to keep up with the trendy set in town; a total inability to budget your income because you have no clarity on your monthly expenses and ¿nancial obligations. Racking up credit card debt to the limit, no habit of saving for retirement or a rainy day, inability to plan for regularly occurring expenses like taxes, living paycheck to paycheck…and falling short – it all becomes a vicious cycle and creates a downward spiral dif¿cult to escape from. Good Debts, Bad Debts – Debts can be contracted in good faith and in the course of normal living. Bank or credit union loans for a mortgage, a car, educational loan; these are part of modern life and totally acceptable since they are usually secured loans and the bank has a reasonable expectation that you are in a position to repay the loan. Unsecured loans are another way of incurring debt and these get us on a more slippery path. Credit card debt, paycheck loans, gambling debt, loans from friends, line of credit at ¿nancial institutions etc. are the more toxic kinds of debt. They should be avoided at all cost.
The Consequences - Whatever the origin of your pile of debts, the effects and the consequences are the same: a hopeless feeling of being out of control, stress caused by the inability to meet ¿nancial or contractual obligations, the feeling that life has become unmanageable, creditors who are hounding you, the very real possibility of losing your home or having to declare bankruptcy, the despair caused by seeing no way out. At this point, people tend to retreat from their problems and go in a state of denial or they become so overwhelmed that they seek oblivion in drink, drugs, and in extreme cases, suicide. Others will resort to gambling or criminal behavior in order to obtain the funds to cover their existing debts and continue their spending sprees. There is help. It need not continue this way. Solutions to mounting debt and the resulting nefast consequences on your life can be found. There are a few life hacks to get out and stay out of debt. It can take the form of self-discipline, counseling or guided programs. If your debts are not so severe as to require immediate assistance, you can turn your own situation around with a few pointed changes. For starters you have to be frightfully honest with yourself and analyze what your debt consists of and what got you to that point in the ¿rst place. Then get a handle on your spending. Meticulously record your daily outlays for a month or two and draw up categories like necessities and discretionary spending. Compare your monthly income to your monthly expenditures and ruthlessly cut down your discretionary spending to match your budget. There are many budgeting tools available on the internet and good practical advice to get you moving in the right direction. Take advantage of it. For starters check out an informative newsletter like MoneyNing.com for tips, useful ideas and
pragmatic suggestions. If, on the other hand, you have landed in the zone of “I cannot see a way out of this”, you’re ready for some quali¿ed assistance. You can either seek out a debt counselor on your own – which can be a lifeline, albeit one you have to vet carefully – or you can ask for assistance to an organization like Debtors Anonymous (DA), an international group that is active in Bali. DA offers a sound (and free) program to deal with the effects of money woes and the behaviors that caused the ¿nancial troubles in the ¿rst place. Debtors Anonymous– DA is an international organization operating worldwide. It is a fellowship of men and women who share their experiences, strengths and hopes with each other in order to solve their common problem and help others to recover from compulsive debting. It is a mutual support group for those with “money issues” such as compulsive spending, compulsive debting and under earning. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop incurring new, unsecured debt. There are no dues or fees for DA membership; it is self-supporting through voluntary member contributions.
i.e. free of debt, for 7 years. At DA Bali meetings he shares his experience, strength and hope freely with people struggling with the issue of compulsive debting and acts as a support member in the DA group meetings, often pairing up with newcomers to help guide them on the path to recovery. Like AA, he says, DA is totally anonymous and an organization that is built on trust. It is not a self-help program but a mutual support society allowing experienced old timers to share their experiences with new members. The value of one debtor helping another is without parallel. Victor explains how debt gets triggered and how debtors get pushed by the disease, driven by obsession and compulsion like a train that cannot be stopped. He also talks about the healing he has experienced through working the 12 steps with the support of more experienced members. He now helps newcomers work through the 12 step program much in the same way he was helped when he was a newcomer.
DA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution. Their primary purpose is to arrest the disease of debting, under earning and/or compulsive spending one day at a time and to help others do the same. DA recognizes that compulsive debting is like a mental/spiritual illness. One of the primary symptoms of the disease is the compulsion to spend and debt with the inability to stop this behavior by oneself. Compulsive debtors come to realize they are powerless over debt and spending and that this repetitive behavior is causing unmanageable consequences in one’s life. Besides compulsive debting and compulsive spending members of Debtors Anonymous may also suffer from under-earning, self-deprivation, clutter and/or hoarding, vagueness around money and constant financial insecurity DA’s tough love methods The DA program is based on the famous 12-step program first promulgated by Alcoholics Anonymous in 1935. The AA 12-step model has booked such an enormous success that it has been adapted by many other 12 steps organizations offering support for the sufferers of many addictions or compulsive behaviors including sex, gambling, food, drugs. To support the basic 12 step program, AA also formulated the 12 Traditions which comprise meeting group rules; these have also been adapted by DA. Unique to DA are the 12 Recovery Tools which include faithful attendance at DA meetings, meticulous recording of expenses, following a prescribed action plan, education and mutual assistance and creation of spending plans. Finally, the 12 Promises of DA offer hope and clarity, teaching you how to live within your means, how to spend according to your needs, how to increase your income and arrange your debts so they become manageable. 12 is indeed a sacred number at DA. There is also a specialized Business Debtor Anonymous (BDA) segment of the DA program expressly geared to support business owners and self-employed people. DA recognizes that compulsive debting can lead to grave problems with one’s business as well, the same as for individuals. Another action program is known as Pressure Relief Groups. When a member is under pressure, they get together with 2 experienced members to discuss their concerns. The 2 support members will help the member seeking assistance in the development of an effective action plan. Literature discussing the disease of debting, including DA’s basic text “A Currency of Hope” is available as well as books on the 12 steps and 12 traditions and a host of information pamphlets on various parts of the program including the practicalities of spending plans and record keeping. Events and conventions are periodically organized to explain DA’s mission. The recent DA convention in Sydney Australia on October 7 & 8 was attended by members of the Bali DA fellowship. The next convention will be held in Bali in June 2017. Victor’s Story. Victori is a recovering debtor and has been solvent
What are the signs of compulsive debting? Compulsive spending, under earning, ¿nancial vagueness and self-deprivation are all symptoms that create red Àags. DA has a very effective quiz to determine where you stand on the scale of indebtedness. Courtesy of DA, the quiz is reproduced here. How to determine whether you are a compulsive spender. 1. Are your debts making your home life unhappy? 2. Does the pressure of your debts distract you from your daily work? 3. Are your debts affecting your reputation? 4. Do your debts cause you to think less of yourself? 5. Have you ever given false information in order to obtain credit? 6. Have you ever made unrealistic promises to your creditors? 7. Does the pressure of your debts make you careless of the welfare of your family? 8. Do you ever fear that your employer, family or friends will learn the extent of your total indebtedness? 9. When faced with a dif¿cult ¿nancial situation, does the prospect of borrowing give you an inordinate feeling of relief? 10. Does the pressure of your debts cause you to have dif¿culty sleeping? 11. Has the pressure of your debts ever caused you to consider getting drunk? 12. Have you ever borrowed money without giving adequate consideration to the rate of interest you are required to pay? 13. Do you usually expect a negative response when you are subject to a credit investigation? 14. Have you ever developed a strict regimen for paying off your debts, only to break it under pressure? 15. Do you justify your debts by telling yourself that you are superior to the “other” people, and when you get your “break” you’ll be out of debt overnight? If you answered yes to eight or more of these questions the chances are that you have a problem with compulsive debt, or are well on your way to having one. If this is the case, today can be a turning point in your life. When the student is ready the teacher appears. The road to self-respect, solvency, healing and personal fulfillment is challenging but eminently doable. To make a clear distinction, DA is not a debt counseling service where one simply goes to ask for help with bad savings skills or poor book keeping abilities. DA is set up for those who suffer from the diseases of compulsive debting, compulsive spending or compulsive under earning. DA’s program is for people who are powerless over their ¿nancial behavior and ready to ask for and accept help from others who have been at this crossroad themselves. The Bali DA group meets weekly in Seminyak on Tuesday afternoons. If you are unable to attend the regular meeting you can request an online or telephone meeting session. If you are ready, please contact Debtors Anonymous through their website www.debtorsanonymous.asia or email DA.Bali.info@gmail.com for more info.

The Frugal Balinist *Transferwise. Indonesian transfers are more expensive
than in most other countries but Transferwise (www. transferwise.com) still beats onerous bank charges by a long shot. It is a dirt-cheap hassle-free way to transfer money from any bank worldwide to a bank account in Bali like Mandiri and BCA - far less expensive than ATM withdrawals. Your foreignbased bank charges no fees for transfers to your Bali-based bank. For years I’ve been enduring punishing bank and foreign exchange charges of from US$60 to US$80 per month, but on a recent transfer of $1400 from my U.S. bank to my Balibased bank, Transferswise charged a total of only US$14.52! It’s a great convenience getting money deposited directly into your account rather than running to the ATM when you need money. Transfers are usually within 24 hours (unless it’s a weekend), even though you’ll get a message “within 2-3 business days.” Their customer service is super, the website easy to navigate and fees are transparent. Just make sure that you give them the exact name on your Indonesian bank account. Five Stars!
*Shopping tips. It’s widely considered among users and in
the trade that the Panasonic NA-W140 12 kg capacity/2 tub is the strongest, best-made washing machine (mesin cuci). *Cheaper than Carrefour is Tiara Gatsu on the corner of Jl. Kerobokan and Jl. Gatot Subrato. *Buy fruit and vegetables at any local market for 1/2 to 1/3 the price. Tiara Gatsu has Australian beef, though you can still buy that at Lotte at the usual prices. Anyone can shop at Lotte but to get the discounts you need to be a member so tag along with a friend who’s a member or go to the desk at the entrance and sign up. *The coffee served at Revolver and Grain is as good quality as any high-end coffee you’ll find in Australia. *Sanur’s Pasar Senggol, Jl. Sindhu, serves fantastic and inexpensive fresh ikan bakar (baked fish) dinners, CDs, DVDs, clothes, tools, etc. Not very big, so it’s easy to shop. *Denpasar’s Pasar Senggol Kereneng is much larger, has more variety and more bargain prices. *If it’s sold or advertised substantially cheaper than the original, it’s probably fake. *Because they don’t pay rent and don’t use middlemen, vendors who walk or set up on sidewalks outside traditional markets sell their goods cheaper than the sellers inside; i.e. big pumpkins for Rp12,000; big bunch of garlic leaves Rp3000, etc. *If you can’t afford a festival pass at the UWRF, a staggering 72 events in program will be free of charge (www.ubudwritersfestival.com/blog/ uwrf-on-a-shoestring).
Charging Rp50,000-Rp60,000, they cater to middle to uppermiddle men and college students. The a/c premises are cozy, offer free Wi-Fi and can even serve café latte, cappuccino. Tip expected. Haircuts are also available for Rp50,000 to Rp60,000 in women’s beauty salons. Expect to give a tip of around Rp20,000. In all of the above establishments, all you have to do is point to the style of haircut you want from photos on the wall.
*Travel tips. With FlightAware.com, whose coverage map
includes Indonesia, just type in the flight number to see where that flight is in the sky at that very moment and also its estimated landing time. *With a little rearranging of other peoples’ bags, there is always room for one more bag in the overhead. *Install Google’s free Google Translate app on your iPhone or Android phone to read 85 other languages without a single lesson. Just type in the foreign word, write it with your finger, speak it or take a picture of it with your phone’s camera and Google Translate will translate the word into your language. *Also with Google Translate, you can download foreign language dictionaries on your phone so that when there is no Internet connection or if data is too expensive, you’ll be able to use it in another country. *Attach a bright and colorful ribbon, yarn or colored tape, on to your bag and you’ll be able to identify it much faster at Baggage Claim. You’ll also be far less likely to walk away with somebody else’s luggage by accident. Do it now!
*Outdoor bathrooms. Many properties in Bali have both indoor and outdoors bathrooms, the former for personal and guest use, the latter for public use and for those who prefer it (at our house, only the outdoor bathroom has a squat toilet). If you have no staff or only daytime staff, your standard indoor bathroom has more uses and thus is more practical. However, guests/tourists love the idea of a bathroom open to the sky. Indonesian-style Kamar Mandi Umum (outdoor bathroom) is also suitable to Indonesians who prefer bak mandi (concrete tub) so they are able to douse themselves elephant fashion with a dipper (gayung). These private outdoor bathrooms are often covered with a roof but some are completely open to nature. Without a hard roof overhead, you’ll feel the cold drops of rain while in your nice warm shower. An outdoor bathroom is also less secure, an easy target for thieves. Since its environs can be invaded by wasps, mosquitoes, ants and spiders, it’s a good idea to install fine mesh on all openings, otherwise you may get pesky bites, snakes crawling in and rats nibbling at your soap when you’re not there. Bathroom fittings also deteriorate more quickly if open to the elements. A big advantage of the open version is ventilation, it offers a nice place to reflect and if big enough it can accommodate your clothes washer (mesin cuci). Mold on the floor in places open to the rain is not a problem as it can be easily removed with bleach cleaner. *Planting season tips. Now that the rainy season is winding
down, it’s a good time to buy seeds (bibit) and start planting. The direction of the sun is important when planting. Observe its path during the day to find where the maximum and minimum sun exposure areas are. This changes from wet season (higher arc in the sky) to dry season (lower arc in the sky). Plant your most important crops in areas of maximum sunlight exposure first. When planting trees, it’s advisable to plant in the sunniest areas first. The shadier areas of your property are better suited for keeping animals and growing kitchen spices like jahe, kunyit, kencur lengkuas and lemon grass. Some crops, like coffee and vanilla, will actually grow better with some shade. Don’t forget to apply compost two weeks before planting seedlings, allowing nutrients to soak into the soil. After planting, wait about two weeks before adding more compost. If you have a large garden, use organic waste for composting to save money buying expensive fertilizers, plus plants tend to grow healthier. Take care not to plant crops or trees in areas that will get washed away with heavy rains or floods.
*Traditional vs. modern haircuts. The very cheapest *Bali’s best bus companies. An excellent and affordable haircuts are given by self-taught Tukang Cukur (Rp6000Rp7000) who set up shop in Bali’s villages. They just use scissors, comb and straightedge razor and shaving and moustache/beard trim included in the price. No tip expected. Next cheapest are traditional men’s haircutters, Pangkas Rambut, who charge Rp10,000 to Rp12,000 for adults; Rp8000 to Rp10,000 for kids/babies; Rp20,000-Rp25,000 for hair dyeing. Located in town centers, often near the pasar senggol, they use electric hair clippers. Traditional straightedge shaves included. No tip expected. The most expensive are men’s barber who works in his own shop in urban areas.
distances by bus in should always sit by women (better yet Indonesian women wearing jilbab) where they are much less likely to be bothered.
bus service from Bali to Java is Restu Mulya. Their designated route (trayek) is from Solo/Yogya/Jepera to Padangbai. This is one of few companies allowed to travel from Gilimanuk straight across Bali. Its passengers are not required to get off the bus at the big underutilized Mengwi terminal and then take a small bemo to their ultimate destination. For Java, Restu Mulya departs Terminal Ubung in west Denpasar at 2 pm. For Surabaya/Madura, they depart at 5 pm to 6 pm. Safari Darma Raya is another comfortable and reliable bus company that services Java from Bali. From Bali to Jakarta, the best bus company to use is Intercontinental. Women traveling long
Bus Restu Mulya
*Household tips. It’s been our experience over the past 15 years building and maintaining a large villa complex in Bali that it is more productive to hire Javanese skilled workers – who make up about 11% of the island’s population - rather than Balinese skilled workers. However, because of security concerns, we do not hire the fly-by-night freelance laborers holding shovels you see in groups along Jl. Bypass. Except for Balinese tradesmen from the poor districts of Karangasem and Buleleng, the Javanese work for less, are easier to manage, have a stronger work ethic and require less time off than the Balinese – bless their hearts - who must attend countless ceremonies, tend to arrive late, take more breaks and leave earlier than their Javanese counterparts. As the old adage goes, Orang Jawa jual bakso untuk beli tanah, tapi orang Bali jual tanah untuk beli bakso. (“Javanese come here to sell meatballs to buy land, but the Balinese sell land to buy meatballs.”) If you ask a Javanese to cut down a tree, he’ll do it straightaway, but a Balinese might want to hold a ceremony first. The one period of the year when Muslim Javanese take a long break is for Idul Fitri at the end of the Ramadan fasting month when it’s extremely difficult to find electricians, plumbers and stonemasons. *Forgot your reading glasses? Peek through a tiny hole that you can make with your fingers, move your hand up and down to focus, then read astonishingly small type without glasses! *It costs about Rp50,000 per two meters to make an attractive 4-cm-wide wooden curtain rod at a tukang serkel (wood mill) as opposed to buying them ready made from a toko material (hardware store) for Rp100,000/ meter. *Don’t build a water tower (menara) with a roofed water tank on top without embedding steel-reinforced rungs up a whole side of the tower so the concrete water tank on top can regularly cleaned and the floater fixed or replaced. *Swing your arm in a circle to loosen ketchup stuck in the bottle; you can hear it unloosen with a dull THWOCK! *Food tips. Tempe wrapped in banana leaves tastes better than plastic bagfermented tempe. *Refrigerated transport is rare on Bali. Fowl, fish and beef traders in the island’s traditional markets have no cool rooms and hand fan fresh meat to ward off flies. Sellers rely on early morning Minuman Sari Kedelai box shoppers to clear stock before it becomes a source of harmful bacteria. *Minuman Sari Kedelai (Rp1,900 per 200 ml sachet) is available for people allergic to dairy products, but avoid the oversweet 200 ml sachets of Minimum Sari Kedelai with the mint leaf over the soybean on the carton. *Three kinds of eggs sold in Bali: 1) village eggs from free range chickens roaming roads and trash piles; 2) store-bought factory farm eggs laced with chemicals and antibiotics; 3) duck eggs from healthy ducks feeding on insects in sunlit rice fields – the best!
