What Rubbish!

collection there in June including some pieces inspired by and resulting from his residence at the resort.

When we heard that “the authorities” – the quotation marks are possibly essential – had suddenly demolished a number of rather well known and heavily patronised watering holes favoured by the Bling-and-Bolly and Boys-and-Girls-Behaving-Badly sets on the beach at Batu Belig, a wreck and rampage event held on May 7, an unkind thought crossed our mind. It was that “They” (the quote marks and capital T are definitely essential) had mistaken the real task upon which a modicum of concentration is required. It occurred to us that a far-sighted official – Find that man! Give him a medal! – must somehow have become aware of the real problem on Bali’s beaches and directed the troops to clean up the rubbish, but that a critical wire or two had got crossed while the order was being passed down the line. There is a precedent for this, though sadly it too is a joke. An order “Pass the word forward, we’re going to advance,” given to British infantry on the Western Front in World War I was duly passed forward but got lost on the way. It became “Pass three-and-four-pence, we’re going to a dance.”

Scat, Cat

It is asserted that Karma Kandara, La Barca and other outré establishments were operating without the necessary permissions and permits. They may have been. We don’t know. But that’s not unusual hereabouts, particularly when if you do pay up you’ve often no idea who is actually going to pocket the dosh.

A Ra’re Treat

Oh, THAT Target Meanwhile – surely to no one’s surprise – environmental specialists are at loggerheads over how the Bali government’s commitment to a plastic free Bali in 2013 can be achieved. The short answer is it can’t be. The real political game is finding some smoke and mirrors with which to claim it has been, or very nearly so. This little shadow play has now produced a statement – from provincial environment agency chief AA Gede Alit – to the effect that 2013 is just the target for the initial commitment. Dr Wayan Arthana – of the Centre for Environmental Research (PPLH), which is hardly an impartial player but never mind in this instance – says there is no clear plan to achieve this. He is apparently shocked to learn this, which in turn is shocking. We’re on Planet Bali, where clear plans are never part of the picture. It’s true that Bali has a big waste problem. But even 10,000 cubic metres of waste a day is not insuperable. At the moment more than half is left untreated and scattered around the island. The 10 to 12 percent of it that is plastic could certainly be managed under the right programmes. Arthana is pessimistic about the target date. “I think it will not be achieved,” he says. Gosh, if betting were legal here he’d make a brilliantly successful bookie. It’s hard not to be pessimistic about the entire project, frankly. A study by graduates from Reading University in Britain found various impediments in the way, including the behaviour of people who it seems – in the comfortable do-nothing fictions that govern life here – “do not realise” that plastic is harmful to the environment.

Ooh, Yummy Alila Villas Soori, on the Tabanan coast and somewhere we really must get one day, has a culinary treat in store for guests in June. Michelin chef Tom Kerridge, whose Hand and Flower public house, at Marlow on a picturesque Wind in the Willows-style stretch of the River Thames in England is Britain’s only two-star Michelin-rated pub, will be creating haute cuisine – some of it hot too, no doubt – in-house on his first ever Asian tour. He is said by some to be the finest chef in Britain today. As far as we know, he’s not one of the rude ones, which is truly a blessing. Kerridge had a hard childhood, a time upon which he reminisced in February in the London Daily Telegraph newspaper. He recalled they were so poor – his divorced mum worked nine to five and then after hours on the till in a pub to make ends meet – that their usual Sunday Roast (a British tradition) was cheap sausage meat from a supermarket rather than prime beef or chicken from the butcher.He said: “I look back on that meal with really fond memories because it shows my mum didn’t give up. She worked hard to help me get where I am. Now she comes to visit me at the pub, where we’ve just won our second Michelin star, and I get to treat her instead.” What a lovely fellow. And that’s not all that Alila Villas Soori has on its schedule next month. Its latest Artist in Residence is Raymond Wiger, a master sculptor in the art of wire mesh, who will show a

We heard this story from Villa Kitty, the rapidly overcrowding refuge for deprived felines in Ubud. Apparently at Champlung Sari, a resort property in Monkey Forest Road, unwanted or nuisance kittens – the product of breeding age cats left unsterilized by unthinking owners or the ubiquitous stray animals – are cleared from the property by the cheapest method possible. Someone tosses them over the wall into a dirty little watercourse that fights its way through the garbage to get where gravity would otherwise like it to go. Villa Kitty tells us a couple staying at the resort recently were upset at seeing a kitten thrown over the wall in this manner and one phoned them up in high distress. Further inquiry elicited the information from the management that the guests had evidently failed to see the kitten then climb back over the wall. Is this a joke? Sadly it is not. But animal lovers and anyone with an elementary sense of decency might like to get their essential Ubud experience at some other accommodation.

mano@mrtrusted.asia

Hector’s ghost-writer was browsing through his LinkedIn site recently when the ever-helpful People You Might Know feature popped out the name of Angus McCaskill. Well, we don’t know Angus and neither did we know his alter ego, the faux-Maori Willie Ra’re, when he was hanging around the party scene snorting cocaine. That is, we didn’t know him except vicariously as a result of the public notoriety he acquired on being arrested, charged, tried and sentenced to jail on a drug charge. We shared this condition – though ours was legitimate lack of knowledge – with a great many people who, after his sad denouement in a supermarket, suddenly seemed not to know him either.

C/Ns/G-16 May 12

McCaskill went home to Australia last August after serving a year in Kerobokan jail. He had originally been sentenced to seven years in one of those over-reactive challenges to common sense that the courts here seem to like so much. He said at the time he was a changed man and that he had used his year in the slammer to reconnect with the nonnarcotics-enhanced side of life. We wish him well. LinkedIn tells us he is now business development manager at a Melbourne-based leisure, travel and tourism outfit called DealsOnDeals and also lists him as owner at the Wall Street Group of Companies. Now that might give us the Willies; not to mention the Gekkos.

Eat Up Ubud, as befits its status as the centre of myriad universes, many of them very strange places indeed, has plenty of spots where, your head filled with pipedreams, you can also stuff your face. That’s as it should be, even if it’s only a mungbean you’re after. So one more won’t matter and it’s no surprise that Kuta fixture Dijon has wandered up the road to open a café. It’s in tastefully eclectic Jalan Raya Sanggingan, just across the road from a favourite Diary spot, the Beji resort.

C/Ns/G-02 May 12

Dijon Café officially commenced business on April 29, with all the pomp and circumstance people seem to view as de rigueur when opening a new emporium (of whatever variety) here. It was open – perhaps this was unofficially, or maybe it was just softly – when we were staying in the area last December. It’s not very far from Mozaic, which keeps getting noticed – the Diary chiefly notices it for its prices – and Naughty Nuri’s, which being extremely tiny is always overflowing with the I-Must-Be-Seen crowd. So it will be good if Dijon cuts the mustard.

Vacant Lot The April issue of the Bali Peace Park Association’s enewsletter popped into our in-box right on deadline – ours, not theirs, it now being May – with some fascinating thoughts on fundraising, land acquisition, and building completion. It records that Man-With-the-Udeng Made Wijaya, whose landscaping firm did the drawings for the Sari site development, told them building the park facilities would take six months. Then it says they’re on schedule for October, the tenth anniversary of the first bombings. It’s May, so they now have five months. But they haven’t acquired the site – and there’s not a brick in sight. We’ll read more. Watch this vacant space.

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) After watching the Asian C o o k i n g channel, I was inspired to make biscuits. It looked so easy but led to my first cooking disaster in many years. I misremembered the butter quantity so they emerged from the oven dripping in the runny golden stuff. They crumbled as I slithered them with black current jam but I ate two anyway, much to my waistline’s dismay. I was determined to get it right. These are quick and easy to make, especially if you have the dry ingredients mixed the night before and the butter in the freezer in the proper quantity! Check the next issue of BA to see what you can do with left over biscuits.

Better than the First Batch Biscuits Makes about 6 6cm biscuits

C/Ns/G-13 July 11

Directions: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees In a large bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Using the coarse side of a cheese grater, grate the frozen butter directly into the bowl. Mix gently and quickly. Sprinkle the milk over all and get your hands in there and mix until it all holds together. You can add a bit more milk if it needs it. Plop the dough onto a floured cutting board and knead a few times and then pat to about .5 cm thickness. You can either dip a glass into flour and cut out rounds or you can be more spontaneous and cut into wedges or other messy shapes. Neatness does not count here! Bake 10-12 minutes until golden brown and Voila’ you have biscuits to spread your favorite jam on and if you dare more butter. Come an’ get it! Note: You need a light hand with biscuits and the butter has to be really cold. So knead lightly. The oven has to be very hot when you put them in so they will puff up.

Ingredients: - 2 cups flour - 4 tsp. baking powder - 1/2 tsp. fine salt - 1/2 cup frozen butter - yes, frozen, not merely cold - 1/2 - 2/3 cup milk

Dr. Wayan Sayoga Meditator

Dr. Sayoga was born in Gianyar R e g e n c y. A s a child, he played in the fields and the rivers around his village of Guwang. In 1985, he enrolled in the Faculty of Medicine in Gajah Mada University in Yogyakarta, central Java, graduating in 1992 as a Doctor of General Medicine. In Dr. Sayoga’s professional career, he worked in several clinics in Jakarta, served as Head of Health Centers (Puskesmas) in Kembangsari and Kintamani until 1998, and has also managed clinics in several hotels in Kuta. Dr. Sayoga has studied the work of many renowned public figures and spiritualists such as Gandhi, Bung Karno and Swami Vivekananda. Presently, he serves as Chairperson of Anand Ashram Foundation based in Kuta. In September of this year, the foundation will be presenting the International Bali Meditator’s Festival, the fourth to be held in Indonesia. What is your philosophy of life? I pay respect the Truth, wherever it comes from. I love every seeker I meet, despite the method they have chosen to find the Truth. I believe that each being on this earth is walking on the path towards happiness and freedom. When did you meet Anand Krishna? In 2005 at a public gathering. I immediately became absorbed by his wisdom, bursting into tears when he sang “Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya…” This encounter started me on a new spiritual path under his guidance. What is your work at the foundation now? I’ve been facilitating a self empowerment program called Neo Stress Management which is one of various meditation programs that have been running for several years on Tuesday evenings at our Anand Ashram meditation center on Sunset Road in Kuta. Do you meditate yourself? Yes, I meditate on a daily basis because the practice leads to holistic health. I apply meditation as the foundation of my life to help me go through my day-to-day activities. Meditation is an individual experience and should be done alone. I believe that meditation should be a part of every step we take and every breath we breathe - the basis of our daily lives just like eating, sleeping, drinking and taking a bath. How does meditation help people? It offers complete health for body, mind and soul, no matter

what our occupations are. Meditation expands one’s way of thinking. When you’re faced with certain problems, they can be solved in various ways based on a clear mind. This way of thinking can change a person’s life. Anand Krishna recovered from acute leukemia and I know many colleagues who survived strokes and other health problems. Meditation is also a means of increasing wealth. After beginning to practice meditation regularly, some of us have experienced great success. We also believe that the practice of meditation and yoga can lead to the realization of an enlightened society.

Please tell us about the upcoming International Bali Meditator’s Festival later this year. The purpose of IBMF is to develop public awareness and holistic health by promoting meditation as a way of life by sharing experiences, knowledge and meditation/yoga techniques. The event aims to introduce not only international meditation and yoga techniques but also those that have been developed in Bali and Indonesia with the intention of supporting spiritual tourism in this country. Previous events were presented in 2009, 2010, and 2011. The theme of this year’s festival, “One Earth, One Sky, One Humankind: Towards Global Peace and Interfaith Harmony through Meditation,” is also related to International World Peace Day to be held on September 21st, 2012. Why was Bali chosen as the venue for the festival? Bali, and especially Ubud, has the spiritual atmosphere and culture that is suitable for this kind of event. Bali, because of its fame, is where people from different countries, religions, races and cultures from all over the world meet and gather. When will the festival be held? From September 20-23, 2012. The main venue where most of activities will take place is the Puri Lukisan Museum in the center of town. Transportation will not be needed because all of the events and workshops will take place at the same area. Where will festival participants stay and eat? In local Ubud accommodations. Full three-day and weekend packages will be provided. Accommodation is available in standard and superior type rooms with either single or twin/ double beds. Participants may eat in local restaurants or many kinds of foods, snacks and drinks can be bought at a bazaar in the grounds of the Puri Lukisan Museum that will open on all three days of the festival.

Update Jemme does roasts! Cafe Jemme, that oasis of flowers amid the empire of jewels on Jln.

Raya Petitenget, Kerobokan, revives an English tradition. There is nothing more sacred to the English than their traditional Sunday roast, normally served mid to early on Sunday afternoon after the family has returned from Morning Service at their Church. A good roast is the perfect Sunday special as it ‘cooks itself’ in the oven whilst the house and kitchen are devoid of chefs. This habit even spread to the ‘colonies’ and Australian families still regularly ‘do a roast’ on Sundays even if the temperature outside is in the 40’s! At least at Café Jemme it is pleasantly air-conditioned cool inside. All Roast Dinners [Beef, Chicken or Lamb] are prepared for two persons and come with all the trimmings. Roast Beef is served with Yorkshire pudding, gratinated cauliflower and onion, roasted potatoes and other vegetables, horseradish gravy +++. The Roast Lamb [pictured] is with the essential mint sauce, the Roast Chicken with a trio of sauces; cranberry, orange and herb, both of these roasts are also with the same roasted potatoes and vegetables as the Beef. Many families arrive and order one of each roast, a feast for six! Café Jemme cheats a bit, their Sunday Roast is also available on Saturdays, an all weekend lunch and dinner and any time in between offering. A special bonus for vegetarians is their Toasted Mixed Nuts and Pumpkin Salad; roast pumpkin, avocado, lettuce, roast tomatoes, sunflower seeds, pine nuts, sesame seeds and red wine with honey dressing.

For Sale; German books, novel-thriller, Rp. 15.000, min 10 pcs. Free delivery. Call Klaus 0813 3789 8879. [065] For Sale; IBM Think pad, older laptop, battery no good but still works great otherwise, looking for quick sale, contact <peshdawg@ yahoo.com>. Kuta. [137] NC/Ns/G - 27 July 11

Profito is the latest to open on the Jln. Raya Paputan stretch of budget eateries around the

Renon circle. It is an impressive fit out, clean and fresh all in white with a reasonably professional menu [although still with the local standards of miss-spelt English titles, that must be trendy, but strangely with dish descriptions only in Indonesian]. Soup is a Corn, Chicken & Mushroom, wrapped in pastry. Unusual Pizzas can be crushed almond and durian or even mixed fruits. ‘Minerstrone’ is the famous Italia pasta and vegetable soup but at Profito beef or chicken is added. A Salad with a difference is greens tossed with minced beef and chicken, shavings of smoked beef added. Snacks include Beef Croquettes and a Party Food Combo of sliced spring rolls and breaded prawns. The Burgers are served open, with the bottom half of bun only. It is topped with meat patty and cheese, French fries and a fried egg on the side. Usual things from the grill and for dessert there are pancakes [durian] or Javanese Chicken Crepes. The young and friendly staff, clean fresh environment and those budget prices all go together to make it a pleasant visit.

C/Ns/G-21 March 12

Mamma Mia is new on Jln. Raya Pengsekan, south of Ubud joining the ever growing list of budget dining options along this 1km strip of road. Situated next door to the very popular Taco Casa, Mamma Mia is an Italian restaurant/café specializing in Pizzas and Pasta [many combinations with your choice of spaghetti, penne or fusilli]. A large pizza oven is just left of the front doorway in this cavern-like restaurant. The pizza choices are very standard plus the option to invent your own from a very short list of ingredients. Amongst the many main dishes are more with pasta [ravioli, even lasagna with beef and ‘fork’!!]. Overall they are trying to offer an enormous menu for such a new small place. Stum Bar increases the Dutch influence at Sanur’s southern end on Jln. Danau Poso. Tartes [Flambees or Flammenkuche, depending on which languages you speak] can be Natural [onion, bacon and fresh cream], Gratinee [same plus cheese] or Champagnade [with all of the above plus mushrooms]. Also on offer at this small cosy café are steaks, burgers and sandwiches as well as many pizzas from the large brick pizza oven [all the standard options plus the more unusual; chorizo, Danish blue, kebab and passion]. You are also invited to select your own pizza ingredients. Laota presents yet another new cuisine option on Jln. Pratama, Tandjung Benoa. Pure Hong Kong Cantonese their major specialties are congee [bubur or rice porridge] and Steamboats, both done in the traditional Hong King style. No Indonesian Chinese on offer here, just the real thing. Ponde Hong Kong are glutinous rice balls filled with sesame, peanut and red bean. The rice porridge can be had many different ways with meats and seafood [even tortoise and live frogs I shudder to add]. Chinese style roasts [duck or chicken], steamed seafood [including Crab in Chinese arak] and other traditionals; Drunken Prawns, King Prawns fried crisp with grated coconut or deep-fried in butter and oats. The Lobster is served as a duo, sashimi and lobster head soup. Laota is new in Tandjung Benoa but have been operating in Raya Tuban for a longer time, with the same menu. Kopi Made is another newbie on Jln. Puputan, Renon. This is an Indonesian version of a

western coffee house. They offer a strange variety of different coffee [dripped, siphoned, French pressed] whatever they mean? The standard espresso selections are also there plus a myriad of fancy flavoured lattes, does anyone ever order these? The pastry stand offers mini croissants and a wall menu lists burgers, sandwiches, nasi goreng and hot dogs. The obviously expensive fit-out has an outside terrace under umbrellas, inside smart with air-con and even parking but with not a lot of menu choice inside.

Pavillion is about to open on Jln. Batu Belig, Kerobokan. Under Dutch management the building makes an instant impression with its circus-like fixed tent above the front boardwalk terrace, sharing a long bar with the air-con inside lounge and table area. To open very soon. Batu Belig was also the scene last week of demolition with the string of beach front restaurants, bars and cafes [including Cozy Wheels, La Barca and others] that have been in dispute for years [supposedly built without the essential IMB building license, let alone licenses for restaurant or alcohol which had been sold there in great quantities] were all forcibly demolished [bulldozers] by the authorities. Others were just boarded up. Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com C/Ns/G-02 May 12

Troppo Doc Dr Derek Allen –Tsunami Relief Volunteer By Skye Laphroaig

TroppoDoc is an organisation of volunteers established by Dr Derek Allen, a New Zealand doctor who has chosen to work in the Third World to help poor people in countries such as Indonesia, Bolivia, and Vanuatu. For 60,000 Indonesian islanders, Doctor Derek Allen is the only medical lifeline they have. Indonesia is an archipelago comprising approximately 17,508 islands with over 238 million people, and is the world’s fourth most populous country. As I sit eating my lunch in the comfort of an air-conditioned Seminyak café, I realize most Westerners are unaware of the conditions and challenges facing many Indonesian’s living in the surrounding islands. The Republic of Indonesia maybe part of the Developing 8 (a group of developing countries with large Muslim populations, that have formed an economic development alliance) but on the whole, it’s considered a Third World nation due to high infant mortality and high levels of poverty. ABOUT THE DOCTOR Dr Derek Allen MBChB, Diploma in Obstetrics, Diploma in Public Health, is the founder of TroppoDoc and graduated at Otago Medical School (New Zealand) in 1982. He has dedicated his life to helping those in need and less fortunate than us, working voluntarily for many years in natural disaster areas where urgent medical assistance is required, such as Africa, Eastern Europe, Myanmar and Haiti. Volunteers are the mainstay of TroppoDoc and everyone is welcome, whether they are from a medical or non-medical background. They may be skilled in areas of health, education, construction, agriculture, inter-personal communication, but in general, enthusiasm is necessary. TroppoDoc is a n N G O voluntary organization, founded by Dr Allen in 2002 to administer free medical care and medicines to those in the Developing World affected by devastating n a t u r a l disasters. In the immediate wake of the Indian Ocean Tsunami (December 2004) TroppoDoc worked in remote areas of Nias Island starting up medical clinics and supporting already existing clinics in these areas. At the end of 2005, TroppoDoc continued to work in Pulau-Pulau-Batu (Tello Islands) where there was no resident doctor. TroppoDoc has continued in that role as well as travelling to remote islands by boat offering a service to the community where access to medical treatment is rare. In January 2008, TroppoDoc personally received recognition from the President of Indonesia on behalf of “The People of Indonesia” for all the support and contribution in the rehabilitation and reconstruction of Nanggroe Aceb Darussalam and Nias islands after the tsunami and subsequent earthquake. PARADISE IN POVERTY Pulau Tello is one of the most difficult places in the world to reach. This small island within a group of 101 islands called Pulau-PulauBatu has approximately 50,000 inhabitants and is unknown to many Indonesians - let alone the rest of the world. Situated off the coast of North Sumatra, Tello is a one-hour flight from Medan to Nias Island, then a 6-hour boat ride to Pulau. This challenging adventure in the middle of the Indian Ocean with constant humid 35-degree temperatures is a source of amusement for the upbeat doctor. “Aren’t we lucky!” Exclaims Dr Allen to his new batch of sweaty volunteers. Part of the volunteer experience includes certain risks of contracting tuberculosis, as well as malaria, dengue fever, and active leprosy. According to Dr Allen, TB kills more people than any other infection - It claims 3-4 million lives a year. So how does the Troppo Doc prevent himself from going absolutely troppo? “You gotta look after your own headspace first, otherwise you’ll be no good to anyone”- is his reply. Some of the make shift clinics are open to all elements including rats and monkeys, but living facilities for the doctor and volunteers are quite adequate. Donations alone pay for Derek’s spartan

existence; medical supplies are donated and vital for those people who are constantly queuing up for care.

Derek, a man who has been described as ‘unconventional but genuine’ and who is much appreciated by the local community.

In this part of the world, treating malaria is virtually a daily occurrence. Worldwide three thousand children die every day from this mosquito-borne infectious disease affecting humans and other animals. The disease results from the multiplication of Plasmodium parasites within red blood cells, causing symptoms that typically include fever and headache, in severe cases progressing to coma or death. A simple $10 mosquito net saves lives.

During October 2009, Dr Allen and a team of enthusiastic volunteers with medical and construction field-skills; set up a clinic in the Padang area of Sumatra for residents devastated by a massive earthquake. In Padang and Pariaman, hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes and there was much work to do in the clinic, distributing free medicines, and additional work for the construction team erecting immediate shelter. More recently, during February 2010, Dr Allen and a team from Singapore visited Haiti after a devastating earthquake left 230,000 people dead. Once again, his team set up free medical clinics and provided medicines donated by the public.

So why has Derek dedicated the last 30 years of his life to people and places far from the comforts of home? “Being a missionary doctor seemed to be the best thing to do, given my Christian values,” he says. “I managed to get in and out of medical school with a pass and still had a vision, so here I am - living a dream.” HOW TROPPODOC IS FUNDED TroppoDoc receives donations from individual sponsors, gifts of medical supplies and donated glasses for overseas. These are generally collected in New Zealand from Australia or other countries and transported as part of the volunteer’s personal baggage allowance to areas of need. To keep TroppoDoc’s vision alive, Dr Derek Allen funds his own travel when providing free medical care and medicines. He also funds his own travel around New Zealand to raise awareness among Rotary Clubs, schools, churches and other caring people in the community who have a concern for those individuals lacking certain opportunities in life. One of TroppoDoc’s sponsors shares his feelings about the organization: “It’s incredibly rewarding to sponsor a patient with TroppoDoc. Dr Derek keeps you informed by text message - he discusses the patient’s condition, options and costs available for their treatment. Our family feel part of the team; and all the funds we donate are spent on the patient and her family”. NATURAL DISASTER RELIEF Nias Island was hit by the 2004 tsunami and four months later, by a catastrophic earthquake - recovery is slow. Maybe 200 people were killed by the tsunami and the earthquake killed 1500 and destroyed all the roads. Wherever possible, Derek travels in a TroppoDoc ambulance with his team and often cares for patients in the outer islands with his mobile clinic by trekking through jungle. Last year Dr Allen visited a 40 year-old man who has suffered from leprosy for over 18 years. The risk of the doctor contracting leprosy through any tiny cuts on his feet was raised because local custom requires that you take off your shoes before entering the house, as a sign of respect. Derek believes his patient earns income from tourists who take pity on his plight. The medication to cure leprosy can take up to two years for benefits to show and is often unavailable. Education and availability of medicines is a constant struggle on these remote islands. The lack of resources means Derek will even do surgery if he can save a life. Although a new generation of Christian missionaries arrived in the Tello region during 1919, Derek still visits sick children who are described as ‘possessed’ by people in the community. They imagine certain spells or bad spirits are the cause of illness. His job is to educate them, administering the children with malaria tablets, which soon gets them back their feet and back to school. Another challenge for the doctor is access to clean, safe water, which is an essential necessity of life and a basic human need. Water is often contaminated with rubbish, salt water, vegetation or mud and can be deadly. Clean drinking water is a major factor in improving health and wellbeing. According to Oxfam, one child dies every 20 seconds worldwide from waterborne diseases. Death from diarrhoea claims over 4000 children in the world per day as a result of drinking contaminated water. To combat these statistics, TroppoDoc volunteers have erected water tanks in the local schools, to teach people it is easy to collect and safely consume rainwater. THE VOLUNTEERS Volunteering with TroppoDoc means you are often part of a team working independently of the Government and other International Aid Organisations. All the volunteers are responsible for their own travel, medical insurance, accommodation and food expenses. TroppoDoc is always looking for people from any walk of life with skills (either medical or non-medical) to help with clinics, surgeries, clean water collection, distributing donated spectacles, health education and taking medical surveys. “The pleasure they’ll receive from working here is stunning” - says

A VOLUNTEER’S EXPERIENCE Transport in the developing world can be a problem due to poverty and isolation. This is especially the case in Tello where there are only four vehicles on the island, so transport is generally by motorbike, pedicab, bicycle or walking. TroppoDoc owns one motorbike, which Dr Derek Allen uses to get to clinics and to visit patients in their own homes who are too sick to travel. The bike is also used for ferrying the translator and volunteers. In July 2009 Margaret Thorpe volunteered for the 17th time with Dr. Derek, describing her time as: “A fantastic experience, I love this type of work with a passion. It certainly is challenging, but very rewarding, extremely fulfilling and totally addictive - the more you do, the more you want to do! I wholly encourage anyone thinking of volunteering to help the poor and those less fortunate than ourselves.” Based out of the Catholic Mission Hospital in Tello, run by Catholic nuns, Derek provides a free doctor service, including surgery and all medications to anyone who comes to see him. He is keen to give volunteers a real taste of medicine in the developing world. From day one volunteers can be running clinics by themselves, and seeing patients with everything from hypertension to acute appendicitis with the added challenge of a language barrier. One recent volunteers explains: “As well as running clinics at the hospital, Derek takes mobile clinics out to the poorer side of the island to increase awareness of his service and to pick up any treatable illnesses, taking a sack full of medicines, a translator and any volunteers, reaching them by boat and staying overnight at the hospitality of the locals. Some of the most gritty medicine is found on these islands; massive skin lesions and pressure sores, widespread TB, leprosy and extreme thyrotoxicosis - most patients have never been seen by a doctor!” HELPING THE POOR For this Kiwi doctor, the only choice is the one he took 30 years ago, to stay and help the poor. Derek says: “It’s a wonderful feeling not knowing where you are going and being constantly surprised”. Derek is a compassionate soul and the guardian of a y o u n g Indonesian child called Melioni, who was born with a cleft pallet and couldn’t feed properly. S h e w a s brought home to die because hospital costs were just too high for the family. “It’s lovely to have a small child to share life with, she’s made me more patient, she’s just a beautiful child and she has changed my life so much.” Explains Dr Allen. TroppoDoc would be delighted to discuss an arrangement with any potential sponsor wishing to see their sponsorship or charitable donation provide the maximum assistance to those who are in need.

Eva With his 1928 movie ‘Un Chien Andalou’, Spanish writer and director Luis Bunuel was to create the first surrealist film. It’s nice to know that since then many Spanish directors have kept the genre flourishing and pertinent. New Spanish director Kike Maillo makes an intriguing and very contemporary surrealist movie with his piece ‘Eva’. After ten years a robot programmer returns to his hometown and old university, to work on a project to make a robot child. Unbeknown to him, he chooses his own ten year old niece as the model for the robot’s program. From the opening credits you know you are in for something unusual, and this movie never fails to deliver on any level. This Means War Reese Witherspoon’s most recent movies have been a tad bit disappointing; therefore, it comes as a pleasant surprise to find that her latest romantic-comedy is actually quite delightful. Independently, two good buddies, who are CIA agents, meet and fall in love with the same woman. She can’t decide between either of them, and, as both date her, they use all the resources that the CIA has to offer to keep tabs on each other’s progress with her. Director McG’s comedy is well-written, and it is full of sparkling and witty dialogue. Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine, and Tom Hardy all give great performances. The Eye of the Storm Based on a novel by eminent Australian author Patrick White, Australian director Fred Schepisi makes a serious family drama. In the Sydney suburb of Centennial Park a wealthy matriarch is on her death-bed, and her two middle-aged children return from Europe, to sit through the death-throes, and get their hands on their overdue inheritance. The son is a fading but once famous knighted actor on the English stage, and the daughter is a divorced but penniless French Princess. As they wait out the death-watch, grievances from the past are put to rest. Australian actors Geoffrey Rush and Judy Davis are outstanding in their roles, and, English screen legend Charlotte Rampling uses a flat Australian accent to devastating effect as the matriarch. Sherlock Holmes II, A Game of Shadows How you feel about Robert Downey Jr.’s very contemporary portrayal of the 19th century detective Sherlock Holmes, will dictate how you feel about this sequel. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are hot on the trail of another evil genius, who has world domination in mind. Director Guy Ritchie makes a fast paced thriller, full of impressive visual effects and intriguing mechanical gadgets. Robert Downey Jr. presents a barrage of presumably witty and snappy wisecracks, while Jude Law floats around in the film as Dr. Watson. Shame This movie has been sponsored by the UK Film Council, and without their financial support it would most likely never have been made. Sometimes movies can be pretentious and obscure just for the fun of being pretentious and obscure. Director Steve McQueen’s ‘arty’ movie is very pretentious and obscure. A successful New York businessman is a sex addict, and he continually seeks sex anywhere he can find it. However, when his sister comes to visit, this seems to throw him into a bit of a spin. An incestuous relationship between them is implied, but, it is never substantiated. Steve McQueen over-extends all of the movie’s scenes to the point of tedium. Michael Fassbender spends much of the movie exhibiting his manhood, and Carey Mulligan presents her normal façade of doom and gloom. If it wasn’t for the film’s notoriety, you probably wouldn’t waste your time watching it. Burning Man Talking about pretentious and obscure films, this new Australian movie, from screenwriter and director Jonathan Teplitzky, must be the ultimate in pretensions and obscurity. After the sudden death of his wife, a Sydney chef has lots of problems trying to get his life back in order. The

story is told in an onslaught of intercut images and scenes from the past and present. The movie is extremely hard to follow, but, by the time you have figured out how to read it, you quickly discover that it doesn’t have all that much to say. 96 Minutes More pretensions and obscurity. Director Aimee Lagos’ film starts with two women trapped in a car with two gun wheeling hoodlums. The movie then works its way backwards, to explain how the women got themselves into this predicament. Okay, it’s a nice ‘arty’ idea, which has been done before. But, really, why bother watching it when you know how it’s going to end? All She Can An American-Mexican teenager is hoping that an athletic scholarship will get her to college, but, when this doesn’t happen, her life quickly falls apart and she finds herself on a fast track to nowhere. However, the girl is smart enough to eventually get her life back in shape. The movie is intended to be uplifting and inspiring, but, it’s hard to get excited about such a clunky film.

16 May - 30 May, 2012

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE MAY 16 - MAY 30, 2012

We start this fortnight with a New Moon Solar Eclipse, when both the Sun and Moon are at 0 degrees Gemini. Mercury also heads into Gemini on the 24th and Venus went retrograde on the 15th and stays that way until the end of June and moves forward again after the first of our Uranus square Pluto transits at the end of the month. June 4 marks the Full Moon Lunar eclipse in Sagittarius and followed closely by the second of our pair of Venus eclipses. The first was in June 2004 and they always occur in pairs and marking a period of accelerated change on the Planet. A resurgence of the feminine and all matters pertaining to Love and our values, including monetary will be highlighted. Remember too, the long journey of Venus in Gemini now and it’s retrograde phase. This is a deep, profound and permanently life altering time for us all. Eclipses bring portals or gateways that allow expansion beyond the normal. Although the experiences are personalized as expressed in the individuals chart, the transformation is universal as the vibratory changes ripple throughout our galaxy and beyond. Getting a handle on anything will be awkward to say the least and our minds will be swinging from one potential to another. Find your calm amidst the turbulence and harness the steadfastness of the Mars Virgo trine to Pluto in Capricorn. As the excitement builds the human heart will expand beyond the bounds of its previous limits and oneness becomes the experience. ARIES Mars joins Pluto this fortnight and grounds you nicely into the next phase of your journey. Uranus in your sign is bringing revolutionary changes to your life and this time heralds not only transformation but a virtual metamorphosis from one way of being into another. It’s up to you to determine at which stage you are currently at and to make the necessary adjustments in your life. If you find yourself in the cocoon phase you may not yet be ready to extend your arms and embrace the new. A little more patience may be in order as you await the butterflies birth. Soon it will be time to fly.

LIBRA What’s your focus now? This is a good time to get your priorities straight in your own mind. Relationship is the key focus or theme for everyone at this time. With your particular passion for relating and your ability to last the distance you will be a sought after companion for indepth discussions on the subject. Pluto and Uranus will work your Libra Planets at some stage over these coming years. Change is inevitable and resistance is futile. Better to ask for what you want and use the power to create than be steamrolled by the force of the transits themselves. Give up any victim consciousness.

TAURUS Venus is such a major player in the heavens that you can’t help but be affected by the transits, retrogrades and eclipses. Turbulence is the word that comes to mind. Although it’s not in your nature to accommodate chaos, it may be a good time to get use to it. Just when you think it’s one thing it turns into something else. Getting a handle on your relationship status is challenging to say the least. Be careful to not judge too harshly the apparent fickleness of other people’s actions as they could well be mirroring your own indecisiveness. The more loving and less judgmental you can be the better for all.

SCORPIO Mars the activator of Pluto your ruler is creating a harmonious aspect to it, this fortnight. This is like rocket fuel for all of your enterprises. Harness the potential and create anew. Release all of those things that no longer serve you in preparation for the coming powerful transits of June. Release is the key theme here. Old ideas, old patterns of behavior and material possessions; even relationships have to go. This isn’t the go ahead for you to be relentless in your purification process though, and Mars in Virgo insists that you use some discernment and discrimination. All in Divine timing.

GEMINI Such a pivotal year for all of you Gemini people. Eclipses mark a highlighted phase of your life and as it’s birthday time marks also your year to come. Relationship is a major theme and with the New Moon on Alcyone in the Pleiades it will be a very interesting and emotionally tumultuous year for you. It’s a good thing then that you are so accustomed to change and can live without the depth in your relating. The mind will be rapidly changing and adapting to new situations and opportunities will come thick and fast. Out with the old and in with the new at an accelerated pace. It will be a fun year ahead.

SAGITTARIUS Jupiter is set to exit Taurus in June and in time for the mega transits at the end of the month. This recent past has allowed you the opportunity to solidify many things and opportunities in your life. The irony now is that you may be ready to let some of them go and make way for the sweeping changes set to enter your life then. Movement from Taurus to Gemini is obvious in its haste and the urge to communicate what you have learnt. Bringing those lofty ideas into 3D or mundane reality is the task at hand now. You’ve seen what the power of your thoughts can manifest and are ready to share the information.

CANCER Always a powerful time for you

CAPRICORN The theme of release and regenerate continues in your life. As you prepare yourself for the sweeping changes to come in June, you will find yourself well positioned to move with more ease and Grace and flow with these. The letting go is becoming easier and you are learning trust in the Divine outcome of situations that seem bereft of potential. Not knowing and losing control is a challenge for everyone at this time. In a contradictory way this is becoming your forte and something that you will be a shining example of in the days, months and years to come. Gratitude and forgiveness the way ahead now.

when eclipse windows open. This pair is in Gemini and Sagittarius and adds the potential of travel and adventure to your schedule. You will also be exploring the depths of your higher-self and seeking guidance from there. As we move more and more spontaneously now and have to align ourselves with Divine Synchronicity this is probably a very opportune time to seek guidance from the higher aspect of your being. Communication is another important aspect of this time. Be sure to keep the channels open and have patience with everyone. LEO The Sun moves from Taurus to Gemini and you feel the change as a positive move. All the drama and attention that is being stirred now, brings some variety to the mundane. The Sun is eclipsed on the New Moon and this will allow you to delve deeply into your own psyche. A good day then to take some time to meditate. It will do it’s work regardless of whether or not you take the opportunity to tune in. It’s a little more enlightening to align yourself with the energies however and work consciously with them. A lot of movement is promised for this time. You may wish to take your vacation now.

AQUARIUS Uranus drawing ever closer to its date with destiny and bringing a sense of urgency and excitement. Bubbling with anticipation and butterflies in the stomach can be fun if you allow it and it’s not even that you need to know the reason why. Allow this sensation and move into alignment with your feeling sense and away from reason and logic. Logically there is nothing to understand. The more you surrender your personal will to the higher, the more you will feel that you are in the right place at the right time and all is well. Let go the need to know, and begin to flow in harmony with the universal synchronic order.

VIRGO Mars is still in Virgo and trines Pluto this fortnight and makes a good deal of energy available to you. Energy to be used for transformation and creating at the material level. What do you wish to create in your life? All this activity in Gemini will activate your Virgo Planets and this can be felt as stress. Again use the stress and the energy available to you and harness its potential to make the necessary shifts in your life. No need to judge situations as either good or bad, allow and work with them in the most appropriate way. It could be that there are situations that you could bring an end to.

PISCES It could be an unsettling time for you if you try and align yourself with particular paths of action. This is a great time to learn the art of adapting to radical and unpredictable change. If something isn’t working, it may be because it’s not meant to. Surrender the need to follow through with your plans as the chaos may be the clue to change course. Watch your nervous system over this coming month as it is apt to suffer if you align yourself with negative energy. Keep your field clear and purify yourself and your surroundings often. Whatever practices work for you, are the best. Simple is good.

UBUD FAREWELL TO OLIVE A long procession of Balinese friends and members of her Australian family farewelled 94-year-old Olive Adams in Ubud this month. Olive, known respectfully as Niang Olive by the Balinese, first visited Bali in 1978 after a family tragedy. Ubud soothed her heart and over time became her favorite place. Although she moved here permanently just a few years ago, Olive had embraced Hinduism many years earlier, and dedicated much of her life to temple ceremonies around the island. Though her family knew of her affection for Bali, I’m told they were surprised and touched by the depth of the friendship and esteem she had earned from her Balinese friends, as evidenced in the long-winding, vibrant funeral procession along Jl Monkey Forest.

MAN WITH “MEDICINE” A fellow Canadian Indian recently confirmed for Bob Supernant what he’d known in his heart for many years, that he has inherited his gift for healing from his Indian lineage. Bob has developed a unique personal approach to the human body and energy field, incorporating intuitive sensitivity, clear understanding and deep heart connection to deliver grounded, usable information for increasing health. Unlike western medicine which treats only the physical body, Bob’s intuitive healing - studied over 30 years in Canada, the US and Bali works with the whole being, regarding each person as an individual with a unique background and energetic makeup. He has experience in deep tissue work, polarity therapy, shiatsu, pulse therapy, balancing chakras, self-guided meditation and access consciousness.

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

Kate Holden Talks on: Writing, Heroin, Sex, Work, Travel by Renee Thorpe In My Skin is the memoir of writer, teacher, journalist, and recovered heroin addict Kate Holden. It is at times a v e r y d i ff i c u l t read, with harsh details of drugs and sex. Yet like a thread of gold, the author’s inner life force shimmers from the pages, and, yes, it has a happy ending. Holden, whose pensive column in The Age has won her many loyal readers, will be featured at Ubud this year. For those in search of writers who led colorful lives, Holden will not disappoint. To pay for her habit, she turned tricks in the streets of Melbourne and also worked in a brothel. Now she inspires new writers and has an irresistible personal charm. All good for our spirited festival! Rushing between London and Morocco, Holden offered some insights into her most infamous book. RT: Were you writing to any type of reader? KH: I wrote the first fragments of In My Skin mainly for myself, not as a ‘diary’ exactly, nor for therapeutic catharsis, but to record my fiercest impressions before they faded. But I felt, even when I was in the middle of the actual experience, that I was witnessing worlds that people like myself usually had a misconception of -- and I wanted to correct that, to reach people like my former self and my family and friends and suggest that their preconceptions of heroin users and sex workers, for all they might have been sympathetic, perhaps were a little naive. I also wanted to reach a general audience. RT: Once in In My Skin, you refer to the “wicked glee” of ending a dry spell with a score. Do you feel you still seek wicked glee in other things? KH: I finally got my driver’s license last year and I feel glee in driving -- not so much wicked pleasure as astonishment at how good it is to overcome my terror and finally feel confidence on the roads. Heroin is of course very much about transgression and breaking taboos and stepping outside the norm -- puerile as those urges may be -- and there’s satisfaction in that which is hard to replace, at least at first. I don’t think anything in my current life quite has the same savagery or defiance that injecting heroin did. But short of taking up base jumping or all-body tattooing, nothing probably ever will. The problem is that heroin provides such a great ‘trick’ -- “this is satisfaction, this and it’s so acute, so definite, so penetrating” and nothing can quite replace that, certainly not more general joys like success or domestic bliss or even passing a driver’s test. The next trick is to learn to love peace and contentment, not that kind of total, if transient, satisfaction that only, actually, demands more and more satisfying.

RT: Near the end of the same book, you write “vanity was my fault.” Explain. KH: Vanity as a sex worker is very much about professional success -- it’s fair enough, I think, to be a bit vain when you have customers thronging for your attentions when they could have another woman instead, and to use that confidence to

gain more work -- a sex worker who’s having a bad night and not getting any bookings gives off a kind of atmosphere of unwantedness, and the further her confidence falls the less likely it is that she’ll get a job. Feeling sexy and desirable and wanted and special is, under the circumstances, pretty good for just getting you work. But vanity in writing is a pitfall. It will make you portentous and vague, over-ambitious and stiff in your writing, and vanity in an author in public is easy to spot and very easy to condemn. It’s only insecurity of course, but it does you no favours. It’s a challenge for writers though, who spend so much time alone and wondering if their work has merit, to resist the blandishments of praise when they come!

KH: It was important for me though to find a balance between grim, gritty, grotty, junkie-lit awfulness -- and the nerve to write those parts as honestly and as really as I could -- and then the parts that were actually quite funny, or lovely, or sweet, or consoling. Very much my message in the book is that nothing is simple, not even that heroin addiction is ‘bad’ -- it’s all complicated and varied and individual, and the light and the dark were all part of that pattern.

RT: You write, “the dazzle of the world, in daylight, would blind me.” I have to wonder if, in view of the relatively small amount of text describing the final end to your heroin habit, there was so much joy in getting free of the dark times, it is so light as to be GONE, and there is simply nothing to say about it?

KH: I think I agree with some reviewers and readers that the end of the book is, after all, a bit brusque. I wrapped it all up rather fast and left a lot out. I guess I was picking up momentum. I wanted the emphasis to be on the experience of drugs and sex work, not some ‘redemptive’ conclusion that would lengthily tie up all the tragedies and make the arc into a Magdalene repentance and absolution narrative. The ending wasn’t about simple ‘escape’ but about emergence. I wrote it when I’d been clean five years, and it still wasn’t clear to me then (or now) exactly why I got clean at that point. It was so complex and subtle. Basically though I think you’re right, and there really wasn’t that much to say aloud about the experience. It’s a process, not a moment. RT: You describe yourself as a fragile girl in the end of the book, but you seemed so tough throughout, wearing your sex worker hat with a swagger if not merely a stiff upper lip. KH: Now we’re back at vanity! Swagger is all about bravado, isn’t it? I was swaggery, that’s for sure, and I still can strut and feel confident. I am woman who prefers to wear big boots to delicate sandals, put it that way.

C/U/G-7 March 12

I think I was happy to admit frailty, fragility and vulnerability in my memoirs because they were true of me, and not shameful, and certainly once I’d published the first one I understood that my vulnerability being revealed seemed to make readers feel better about their own -- so in the second book I was prepared to make myself look very stupid and vulnerable indeed. My Age columns are also often in this vein, I portray myself as a bit of a nitwit sometimes, or ingenue, or wonderer or ranty old crank. It’s satire of myself, a private joke with myself, in a way. In real life I am no more swaggery or fragile than anyone else. I think in some things I’m very brave and confident, in others rather weirdly timid. RT: You mention the wonderful time you had with your sister, backpacking. Is there some therapy in traveling? KH: I’m just this minute about to finish these answers and write a column about this very topic as it happens -- travel as therapy is something that we all experience. In drug use circles it’s referred to as ‘doing a geographical’ -- running away from the heroin to some mythical place where it won’t be available. It’s famous -- for never working, as heroin is to be found somewhere everywhere. But I think release, reprieve from being your former self -- the drug user, the prodigal child, the redundant employee, the bad boyfriend, the unsuccessful artist, whatever -- is a huge relief as well as lonely. Just getting away from being ashamed, or worried over, or expected from is important if you’re trying to change -- and to be ‘no one’ is precious -- until it gets very very lonely. C/U/G-02 May 12

MUNDUK VILLAGE, AN ECONOMY CREATED

These days travelers flock to the cool, eco-conscious mountain village of Munduk which clings to the rim of an ancient caldera -- a community that hardly existed a century ago. A small number of indigenous people were already living there when five families from Klungkung fleeing a succession conflict with the royal family arrived about 200 years ago. These few households were already in place when the Dutch, seeking relief from the summer heat of their administrative capital Singaraja, began to build a few holiday cottages in Munduk beginning in the early 1900s. The Dutch brought their unique colonial architecture to Munduk, along with the traditional export commodities coffee, cocoa, cloves and vanilla.

strongly positive, and he was advised to use the lumbung model. Traditional buildings are a common architecture theme in Bali today, but 15 years ago the idea was considered outlandish.

Clearly there had to be a more conscious, ethical way of developing tourism that respected the environment and the community

Pak Nyoman began the project in 1992. Despite their doubts, his fellow teachers at the Tourism school agreed to dedicate a percentage of their personal bonuses toward the project for a decade. Pak Nyoman traded some of his land in Denpasar for land in Munduk. Puri Lumbung started with five simple units overlooking rice fields and spectacular panoramas of the coast far below and East Java on the horizon. “I believe Puri Lumbung was the first eco-tourism destination in Bali,” he said. “The ‘responsible tourism’ jargon hadn’t yet been invented, but in 1992 we were already conserving water and electricity, building with local materials, reducing solid waste, recycling plastic, composting kitchen waste, using local foods and hiring and training locally long before these practices became mainstream.”

The ancestors of Nyoman Bagiarta were among the early Klungkung settlers in Munduk (a couple of restored Dutch holiday homes still stand in the family compound of Meme Surung, now guest houses). The village grew around this compound as more farmers and traders arrived and settled, cleared land and planted crops. By the 1920s Munduk was a prosperous little village. When the war came, the Dutch left and markets for local crops contracted. Then the price of coffee collapsed in the 1950s and the Sukarno government mandated that the coffee plantations be replaced with cloves. Munduk slumbered on into the 1990s, its economy very depressed. The new tourism boom in the south, which started in the mid 1980s, was already drawing people away from the village. Pak Nyoman had left the village long before. He was educated in Java and later studied hospitality on scholarships in Europe and the United States. Between 1985 and 1992 he was the Director of the Hotel and Tourism Training Center which had been set up to train staff for the large hotels in the new tourism enclave of Nusa Dua. “Even then, it was clear that mass tourism was having a very negative impact on the environment,” Pak Nyoman told me. “I was already starting to worry about water and electricity issues. When I worked at the Bali Beach Hotel, I saw a lot of confrontation when the government took the sawah away from the farmers for tourism development. “All the economic activities, trade, administration, public facilities and tourism were concentrated in south Bali. The people in other areas had less access to education and training, employment and the new prosperity. As the price of traditional commodities in the villages kept falling, the villagers were increasingly marginalized. Clearly there had to be a more conscious, ethical way of developing tourism that respected the environment and the community.” After much research, Pak Nyoman became one of Bali’s first proponents of responsible tourism. He slowly created the plan of developing Munduk, his birth village, into an ethical tourism destination. This was considered a pretty crazy idea at that time. Bali’s nascent tourism industry was focused on the Nusa Dua model of a five-star, gated tourist community that kept the real Bali at arm’s length. Pak Nyoman felt instinctively that there was a market for a more authentic tourism experience, but when he introduced the concept to his peers and tried to raise money for it, they told him it was impossible. But he has never been a quitter. He invited tourism professionals from the US, France, Switzerland and Germany to Munduk to assess his vision. Feedback was

In the early 1990s he met Bali-based Swiss citizen Charlotte Woerner, who became a frequent visitor to Munduk. A mountaineer herself, she enjoyed spending quiet nights in the mountains in small pondoks, and staying for weeks with Pak Nyoman’s relatives in the original family compound learning about the traditional Balinese way of life.

Initially the project was very small in scale, its first few lumbungs and cafe providing a learning environment for locally recruited staff to learn trade and industry skills. From its inception Puri Lumbung has also been a centre for local culture, especially dance and music, providing a venue for performances and teachers for children from nearby villages. There are now about 20 lumbungs and a spa built at the edge of verdant terraces that provide the restaurant’s chemicalfree rice. Puri Lumbung encourages organic cultivation by subsidizing local farmers. At an elevation of between 500 and 1200 metres, Munduk’s average temperature is a refreshing 20 – 30C. The town, which now has a population of about 6,000, has become a popular retreat for tourists and Bali’s expats. Puri Lumbung continues to support local initiatives by training villagers to lead treks and tours. A variety of guided walks includes foraging for forest foods and identifying and preparing traditional healing herbs. Guests can visit reforestation projects, waterfalls, rice terraces, clove plantations, temples and nearby areas of Stone Age culture. Between June and September, visitors are welcome to join in the clove and coffee harvest. Treks and cycling are popular activities.

in 1992 we were already conserving water and electricity, building with local materials, reducing solid waste, recycling plastic, composting kitchen waste, using local foods and hiring and training locally long before these practices became mainstream

Charlotte became more deeply engaged after the bomb, looking for ways to keep the village people employed. In this she was helped by a Swiss couple, close friends who had earlier donated money for smaller projects in Munduk. Five years ago they asked her to find a larger project for them to support through Yayasan Naga Loka. Charlotte suggested the upgrading of the kitchen at Puri Lumbung. The hotel now has a new, European designed and equipped kitchen which serves as a training centre for local workers besides producing excellent meals. The Swiss couple also bought land around a waterfall and springs for the Yayasan, to protect these water sources from development. Pak Nyoman is still brimming with ideas to bring prosperity to his village. One of the latest is a coffee cooperative. In 2009 Charlotte took a sample of the area’s ‘white Arabica’ coffee to a coffee merchant in Switzerland, where it was part of a blind tasting by ten professional tasters. The Munduk coffee was rated 9 out of 10 and the merchant asked for more. So the Swiss donors supplied thousands of young Arabica seedlings to about 70 producers and in about five years they will be in a position to sell their coffee directly to the buyer in Switzerland, bypassing the middlemen. No longer young, Pak Nyoman still drives his old pickup truck through the mountains from his house in Denpasar to Puri Lumbung several times a week. Two of his children work here now. He often sits in the restaurant over a cup of Munduk coffee among the busy staff and dining tourists, looking out at the prosperous little town below. Puri Lumbung has indeed become a n u c l e u s o f M u n d u k ’s new economy, and Pak Nyoman is at its heart.

In the early days the Nusa Dua Hotel and Tourism Training Centre provided scholarships for villagers from Munduk. Over the past 20 years Puri Lumbung has generated a staff with a high level of professionalism for such a remote village. About 70 people are now employed by the hotel. “Puri Lumbung has been the nucleus for a new economy in Munduk,” pointed out Pak Nyoman. “Our employees have gone on to build their own home stays and restaurants to serve the increasing number of visitors, and coffee and spice sellers have found new markets. We’ve created an apprentice centre for trainees in the hospitality industry, with young people sponsored by guests or managers from Nusa Dua hotels going out into larger hotels for wider experience.” The tourist economy which Puri Lumbung built up in the 1990s collapsed for almost five years after the Bali bomb in 2002. “We didn’t even have money to pay salaries,” he remembered sadly. But now the hotel is busier than ever. Puri Lumbung has become a destination for yoga and health retreats.

the art of body Beach Running Whether you live near the Bali shores or your travels take you to one, running on the sand provides a soft running surface, and a view. Running on the beach may seem like a relaxing experience, but it’s actually tougher than running on pavement, especially if you’re running on the dry sand. But being able to jump in the water after you’re finished with your run makes it worth your effort. Here are some tips for running on the beach: Check the tides A low tide creates the most level, hard-packed surface for running. As the water ebbs, it leaves hardening sand behind that’s still forgiving-like a soft trail-underfoot. Ideally, you want to run at the lowest tide of the day, or an hour or two around the lowest point, and stay close to the water’s edge without getting your feet wet. Running at high tide leaves you with just soft, dry sand, as the tide is rising and taking over more and more of the beach. Start on wet sand If you’re new to beach running, start out on wet, firm sand - it’s much easier to run on than the soft, dry sand. You can slowly add 2 or 3-minute intervals on the softer sand, with longer recoveries on the wet sand. As you get used to the dry sand, you can start running on it for longer stretches. Check your knees Some beaches have more slanted surfaces than others, but even the most level beaches, at the lowest tides, have some slant to them (even on Legian beach). And generally speaking, the higher the tide, the more angled the sand. Running on an angled surface can wreak havoc on your knees and hips. Make sure you run out and back. The unevenness isn’t good for either leg, but it’s better to put both legs through the paces than just one (for instance, running down a beach in one direction, then back on the road). But if you feel knee or hip pain, stick to the roads or level trails. Ease into barefoot running Barefoot running is a good way to build up strength in your feet. But because we’re used to wearing shoes all the time, our feet are not nearly as strong as they could be. If you start running barefoot on the beach too fast or too frequently, you could injure yourself. Begin with short runs -just 15 minutes or so - to build up some strength in your feet. And, of course, watch out for broken glass and sea shells. Deep sand workouts Even if you can’t get down to the beach at low tide for the hard-packed sand, running in deep sand once in a while is a great kick in the butt. Sand, like soft snow, gives with every step, so your leg muscles (hello, burning calves) will feel the burn. This can be really convenient, though, if you don’t have much time for a run. Doing a short workout in deep sand will rarely leave you wishing you had more time for a longer run. Take advantage of where you are Nothing caps off a great beach run better than a jump in the ocean (and thank goodness for quick-drying run apparel). A soak in the sea won’t give you the same recovery benefits as an ice bath but it will undoubtedly leave you refreshed. And to take advantage of more surroundings, hop over piles of seaweed or other obstacles for agility training, and race the sun as it sets into the water for speedwork.

Stay Young and Healthy with The Latest Advances in Anti Aging Medicine

Is What You Eat Making You Sick? Do you have a chronic illness or long standing symptoms that just won’t go away no matter what therapies you may do? Do you feel worse after eating some foods, or do you feel better after you have a holiday and have changed your diet for a short period of time only to go back to having the same problems when you resume your normal diet?

of following her new diet, Jane was symptom free, medication free, and had lost over 7 kgs of weight.

You could well be suffering from food allergies or food intolerances. Most of our current major health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer, have been shown to be closely related to what we eat in our diets.

The most common type of food intolerance is the one to lactose, a sugar in cows milk. People with lactose intolerance lack an enzyme (lactase) which is required to break down this sugar. This can then lead to symptoms and signs of food intolerance. The most common signs of food intolerance or delayed onset food allergies are as follows:

It has been estimated that one in three of us has an allergy, but this figure could in fact by higher. In Europe allergy is considered to be the number one chronic illness. In a survey that was printed in the “US News and World Report” 43 percent of over 3000 adults said that they had experienced adverse reactions to food. Dixon, H (2001) found that 70 percent of people suffering from a whole host of chronic illnesses who had failed to respond to standard medical treatments, found relief from their symptoms after they had identified their food allergies and then avoided those particular foods. I believe that a vast number of people are suffering from health problems of all types not being aware that an underlying food allergy or intolerance is a major cause of their poor health. What Is A Food Allergy? Essentially a food allergy is when your body produces certain antibodies that are made to attack specific proteins found in that particular food. These are proteins that can resist the heat of cooking, the acid in the stomach, and the intestinal digestive enzymes. These large proteins can then sometimes cross the gastrointestinal lining (if it is damaged), enter the bloodstream leading to allergic reactions throughout the body. When you then eat this food you will develop various symptoms and signs immediately, often within minutes or at the latest within an hour. It is usually quite obvious what particular food has led to the allergy. The typical symptoms are difficulty swallowing and breathing, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. When they reach the skin, allergens can cause hives or eczema, and when they reach the airways, they can cause asthma. As the allergens travel through the blood vessels, they can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure leading to dizziness and light-headedness, weakness, and possibly anaphylaxis. Anaphylactic reactions can start out with symptoms such as a tingling in the mouth and throat or discomfort in the abdomen, however they can progress quickly to shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. If not treated quickly they can be fatal.

This is a classic example of the pain and suffering food allergies can cause, and how by diagnosing this problem you can regain your health once again.

Food Intolerance - Most Common Signs • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Abdominal cramps or pains Bloating after eating – need to loosen your belt Feeling constantly tired and worn-out Recurrent Diarrhea or Constipation Rapid Weight Gain – often increasing rapidly after eating certain foods Headaches or Migraines Brain Fog or Depression Skin Rashes, Eczma, Asthma Nasal Congestion, Sneezing, Runny Nose Water Retention Joint pains and swelling Feeling sleepy after eating Your symptoms often get better when you go on a holiday and have changed your diet

Delayed food allergies can involve virtually any organ or system in your body, hence the wide range of symptoms and signs that can occur. This problem can either cause or aggravate a wide range of common health problems such as: eczema, depression, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, autism, diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease), rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease, ADHD, migraine headaches, and even anxiety (including panic attacks).

A true immediate onset food allergy is uncommon, occurring in fewer than 5 percent of the population, mostly in children.

In these common reactions your body also creates antibodies to particular food proteins that have somehow found their way into your blood stream, however the type of antibodies produced do not cause an immediate allergic response but rather a delayed response occurring from 2 hours to several days after the food is eaten.

If you have or suspect you may be suffering from a food allergy, I would advise that you have yourself tested for this problem as soon as possible.

In adults, the most common foods that cause allergic reactions are shellfish, such as shrimp, crayfish, lobster, and crab; nuts (walnuts and peanuts); fish; eggs, and legumes ( this is one of the main foods that can cause serious anaphylactic reactions).

Much more common however are the delayed onset food allergies more appropriately called food intolerances.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

WEALTH BUILDING – A GAME OF SNAKES AND LADDERS Many of us had deprived childhoods. We didn’t have DVD’s and video games. We had to content ourselves with simple games like marbles or snakes and ladders. The latter was a game of chance where players threw a dice to advance gradually from the bottom of the board to the top of the board. The first one to reach the highest number at the top was the winner. But the game had two special features. If you landed on a square with a ladder you moved up faster but if you landed on a square with a snake you would be ‘swallowed’ and taken back down.

AND NOW TO DISPOSE OF THE ‘SNAKES’

Wealth building is much the same; we make advances towards our financial goals but frequently have setbacks. However, with a little care and planning we can minimize the setbacks. Let’s look at some of the ‘ladders’ and ‘snakes’ and then how to ‘dispose of the snakes’.

• It is a good idea to hold more than one currency. Your ‘home’ currency should normally be your base currency but if you are a ‘permanent’ expat then the US Dollar is usually the currency of choice as it is still the world’s dominant currency.

WEALTH-BUILDING ‘LADDERS’

• Clearly it is essential to insure yourself and your assets. If you are building a property yourself you might also want to incorporate features to strengthen it against earthquakes, particularly in south Bali which is close to a major fault line.

If we take the objective of the ‘game’ as reaching the top of the board, below are the various steps that will help you on your way: • Build up healthy cash reserves • Build up cash savings in more than one currency • Protect yourself and family with life, critical illness and medical insurance • Invest in a property as a family home • Buy land or another property as an investment • Build up a portfolio of shares, bonds and commodities • Make regular contributions to several savings and pension plans • Invest in a wide range of ‘alternative’ investments BUT BEWARE OF THE ‘SNAKES’ THAT CAN RUIN YOUR PLANS The road to financial independence is littered with obstacles that can make your best plans go wrong. Here are a few of them: • Bank goes under. Although deposits covered up to a limit by government not all is recovered and there could be a long delay in recovery • Currency falls sharply • Medical emergency and no insurance • Critical illness or death of the family breadwinner – and no or inadequate insurance • Earthquake damages family home – not covered by insurance • Legal or access problems with land or investment property

Clearly from the above there are many pitfalls along the road to financial independence. But with due care, most of them can be avoided or their impact minimized. Let’s see how: • Banks have learned their lessons from the 2008 financial meltdown but the banking system is still fragile. If you have a large amount of cash it will do no harm to spread it around several banks, even if this means lower interest rates.

• If you are a foreigner and are buying land in Bali take extra care. Check out the right of access. There are many traps for the unwary.

• Stock markets do crash from time to time. As long as you are in for the long term they are likely to come back. Don’t fall into the trap of buying high and selling low. Be patient and never panic! • Long term savings plans are an important feature of wealth building. But ensure you are able to make the commitment before embarking on one. Suspension of contributions or worse, early surrender, can be a very costly mistake. • There are now many very profitable opportunities in the field of alternative investments. But make sure you fully understand them. To fully benefit your cash may have to be tied up for a number of years. • Beware of the multitude of scams, particularly on the Internet. I have seen several fall victim to a simple scam on Yahoo where you are asked to confirm your pass word. Once that falls into the wrong hands they have access to all your e-mails and can concoct false pleas for money to all the people in your address book. Why are there still so many scam letters on the Internet? – Because people are still falling for them!

So keep climbing the ladders and know how to deal with the snakes. You then stand a good chance of winning the game!

Subak is a traditional irrigation system of planting rice which is strongly tied to the rituals of planting and to Dewi Sri, the Goddess of fertility. The farmers are working towards returning to organic farming and making the sawa (rice) more productive, while also caring for the holy water that irrigates the Subak. The people have a deep awareness that they are all interconnected – the upper lands and the lower lands. This belief of interconnectedness is fundamental to their Hindu teachings and how they live their lives.

Karya Segara has now linked with Yayasan Wisnu – one NGO that is a partner of Samdhana to help with Subak World Cultural Heritage preparations. Yayasan Wisnu has tested and popularized village conservation approaches called Desa Wisata Ekologi. This is an integrated village approach of handling tourism that is not disruptive, and is culturally appropriate and sustainable.

According to Antoinette Royo, some of the biggest challenges that people are encountering on Bali is a lack of income. In 2003, Samdhana supported the beginnings for “planting coral” work of the fisher folk living in the island, through Yayasan Karya Segera (a fisher folk organization). Their work continued, with further support from other groups/ technicians, and was rewarded last August 2011, when they received the coveted national environmental award “Kalpataru Savior Award” which was given to them directly by the President of Indonesia for successfully replanting and maintaining a solid set coral to buffer the coral reef of Sanur for the last 8 years. The model that they have employed is now being used in local governments such as Nusa Dua and in other places. The leader, Pak Ketut Patut, and many of the fisher folk have showed never-ending commitment to plant and maintain the Serangan coral reef, through thick and thin, fighting and monitoring illegal coral traders, and totally eliminating use of cyanide in the process of h a r v e s t i n g aquarium fish. They are also working on cleaning up the trash that is coming into the mangrove. Pusat Pendidikan Lingkungan Hidup PPLH - Bali, (Bali Environmental Education Center): an NGO led by a lady advocate, Catur, works with various Banjars including the Banjars of Yayasan Karya Segera area to assist the village women with dealing with the garbage in the mangrove. These women are committed to composting and recycling of the waste in an effort to preserve their environment.

“Samdhana is an association of fellows who are practitioners in preservation. They are working towards finding ways to sustain community based natural r e s o u r c e management, by passing on what they have learned over the years to the next generations of leaders,” said Antoinette Royo, Executive Director. In 2011, Samdhana was awarded the ‘International Funders for Indigenous Peoples’ (IFIP). This is an American based association of donors who welcome members such as Samdhana. IFIP saw that Samdhana had a lot of strong partnerships in local villages, so they decided to award the association with this recognition.The goals of Samdhana are threefold: leadership development, natural resource conflict resolution and community-led natural resource management. There are 63 fellows who are committed to sharing their expertise and to learn from local people about new ways of dealing with outside demands on their environment and methods to improve management.

This group is one of the lead rice farmer’s organizations in Jatiluwih, the heart of Bali’s UNESCO World Cultural Heritage (Warisan Budaya Dunia) application site. The group has developed an intricate land use map of Subak, and located over a dozen sacred water springs. KTBMOJ is currently developing several ways of maintaining socially

Samdhana, in Sanskrit, means a peaceful coming together, a giving back. “The Samdhana Institute’s vision is for a region where natural, cultural and spiritual diversity are valued and environmental conflicts are resolved peacefully, with justice and equity for all parties. Achieving this requires that communities who directly manage their local natural resources have clear rights, ready recourse to justice, strong and skilled leadership, stable financial resources and access to appropriate technical support.” (Samdhana website)

The Samdhana Institute is also helping other regions throughout Southeast Asia, including the Philippines, Laos and Indonesia Papua. They are able to capture funds by submitting proposals to private donors and governments. These funds are then distributed to local NGOs and communities. The Global Green Grants Fund has assisted Samdhana Institute and now merges with Samdhana to

provide support to partners in Philippines, Indonesia, East Timor as well as the Mekong region. It provides small grants to fund grassroots initiatives up to approximately $5000 US. Additionally, Samdhana helped to construct The Prana Dewi Retreat Center which is situated in the midst of beautiful rice terraces and nearby Batukaru Mountain. Retreat themes are listed in Samdhana Events and are organized individually or collectively. Prana Dewi is located walking distance to one of Bali’s most sacred temples: Pura Batukaru. The retreat center is run by local farmers and village folks creating a wonderful collaboration with retreat participants, who can learn methods of organic farming, vegetarian cooking, local art and music.

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

BREAST FEEDING The Good News & The Bad News So what’s bad about breastfeeding? Nothing really. The “Bad” is the companies and health professionals that promote the sale of formula milk for their own financial gain. This aggressive marketing has proven so successful that the United Nations Children`s Fund (UNICEF) has recently voiced serious concern at the decline of breastfeeding across East Asia, and stressed the need to ensure that mothers understand the long-term benefits of this important practice for the survival and development of their children. According to the UN agency, evidence shows that exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of a baby’s life not only improves their future growth and educational achievement, but also significantly reduces national health costs and helps prevent chronic malnutrition. The low breastfeeding rates across East Asia result from economic developments that enable more women to enter the workforce, as well as “aggressive” marketing of infant formula in the region, UNICEF said in a recent news release. As little as five percent of all mothers breastfeed in Thailand, while around 10 percent do so in Vietnam. In China, only 28 percent of babies are breastfed and in Indonesia figures show that less than 30% of infants are breast-fed. Mothers across the region face increasing demands on their time, often have to return to work early after childbirth, and may have limited opportunities to breastfeed or express their milk in the workplace. At the same time, baby food companies are targeting the fast- growing economies in East Asia with aggressive marketing campaigns, persuading mothers to give up breastfeeding and purchase their products despite the drawbacks for their children. To help stem the decline in breastfeeding rates in the region, UNICEF is calling on baby food companies to adhere to the International Code of Marketing of Breast Milk Substitutes. The Code does not ban the sale of formulas, only the marketing practices that entice mothers to replace their breast milk with commercial substitutes. UNICEF is also working closely with businesses in the region to ensure that women can enjoy the right to adequate maternity leave and nursing breaks. ….And the GOOD NEWS!... Any individual who deliberately prevents mothers who wish to breast-feed their babies in Indonesia may face punishment of a year in prison and a maximum of Rp 100 million (US$10,900) in fines. Utami Rusli, a member of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI), was quoted as saying that the regulation was stipulated in the Health Law No. 36/2009. “The government has taken the problems of breast-feeding very seriously.” According to her, the government has also authorized a new regulation to allow mothers to breast-feed their babies at work and in public spaces. She added that President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono signed the new ruling, Government Regulation (PP) No. 33/2012 on March 1. Meanwhile, Ayu Pertiwi, another member of the association, said that the new regulation also prohibited activities that might hinder the government’s breast-feeding program.

C/He/I-14 Dec 11

“This will include a prohibition on pharmaceutical companies promoting the benefits of their formula milk products to the public,” she said. The health law stipulates that mothers feed their babies with breast milk for the first six months after birth. During her tenure, the recently deceased former health minister, Endang Rahayu Sedyaningsih, outlawed advertising of, or medical personnel providing, formula milk and required office buildings to build nursing facilities for mothers at work. Benefits of breastfeeding (in case you didn’t already know) • Breast milk is the ideal food for your baby. • It is natural and specially made for your baby. • There are lots of things in breast milk that are good for your baby, that are not found in formula. • It is safe for your baby, and easily digested. • It contains all the food and drink your baby needs for the first six months of life. • It is always ready when your baby needs it. • Your baby will be less likely to get infections, allergies and many other diseases. • Your baby may grow and develop better. Breastfeeding is good for mothers too • It does not cost anything and does not take time to prepare. • It helps you and your baby feel close to each other. • It helps your body return to normal more quickly after the birth. • It may give protection against some diseases (such as cancer of the breast or ovaries, and osteoporosis). Who Should NOT Breast Feed? Unfortunately there are some cases where the mother should not beast feed their infant. 1. An infant diagnosed with galactosemia, a rare genetic metabolic disorder 2. The infant whose mother: • Has been infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) • Is taking antiretroviral medications • Has untreated, active tuberculosis • Is infected with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I or type II • Is using or is dependent upon an illicit drug • Is taking prescribed cancer chemotherapy agents.

opposed to the content. Darwis’s superb use of light, which caresses the form of the dancer, turns these images into wonderful and evocative photographs, which exemplify the subtleties of the dance and the dancer’s body.

Photographer Darwis Triadi states that he likes to create works that have never been done before. He wishes to present images from those found in his never ending supply of imagination, and these images, he hopes, will result in works of art which will last forever. Initially, Darwis was influenced by his grandfather Abdullah Suryosubroto, who was a well-known painter. Then, with painter Widodo Soenarko, they made various collaborative exhibitions which explored the connection between painter and photographer. With different tools and techniques Darwis and Widodo created works full of beauty, darkness, and mystery. Together, they investigated the power of the imagination, which, for them, was always changing, and connected their minds to “light and stroke in motion”. Ballerina 1

There is a paradox inherent in western attitudes to the image of the unclothed female. Writers, such as English art-critic Sir Kenneth Clarke, were to delineate the difference between the ‘naked’ and the ‘nude’. Briefly, Clarke was to propose that if a woman, in art, was viewed lasciviously, she was to be considered ‘naked’. However, if the woman was to be Ballerina 6 clothed with the invisible cloak of sobriety, that is, all the considerations of color, form, and texture, then she was deemed to be ‘nude’. Further, Clarke suggested that a female is nude if she falls into poses sanctified by high art and offer a not-to-real reality. Nudes are goddesses or nymphs or allegories inhabiting some oriental daydream. Influential feminist theoreticians suggest that all female nudes are an example of the domination of the female sex by the male gaze. In his photograph ‘Window’, Darwis shoots his dancer from behind, through a window, as she goes to shower or dress. There is a voyeuristic feeling to this intimate photograph, which raises the question is his subject ‘naked’ or ‘nude’? Window

In his current exhibition, ‘Light and stroke in motion’, Darwis uses light and shadow to stroke the form of a nude female ballerina. In a series of stunning black and white photographs, ‘Ballerina 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6’, Darwis presents the elegant, sinuous curves and twisting movements of a dancer, as she performs, rests, then bends over to remove her ballet slippers. His model is still and meditative as if absorbed in her thoughts. An intimate, off-guard moment in the life of a dancer.

Ballerina 2

However, whether or not Darwis realizes it, these photographs obviously bring to mind Edgar Degas’s (1834-1917) ‘through-the-keyhole’ glimpses of the world of ballet and theater. Degas’s most enduring images were to become those of ballerinas, either at work or rest. He looked at them with the same Ballerina 3 dispassionate objectivity with which the Impressionists looked at the landscape. What mattered to Degas were the interplay and the effect of light and shade on the human form, and the way in Ballerina 4 which it could suggest movement or space.

Ketut demonstrates that he hasn’t really journeyed all that far from his initial Balinese roots. Although the formal composition of the work, and, the streaked application of the paint, show a decidedly international sense of artistic techniques, the satirical stance of the man depicted in the painting shows a deliberate observation of Balinese caricatures, while, the gestures and pose of the dancer, also contained in the composition, could be nothing but Balinese. Ketut is primarily concerned with presenting images which compare traditional and contemporary Balinese life, but, he also admits that he is interested in the beauty of women. In particular, the gorgeous women from Sanur. Ketut would like his art to help in the future development of Bali, but, he doesn’t want to do this in a political manner. He prefers that his art will inspire a greater love and appreciation for the beauty to be found on ‘the island of the gods’. This exhibition showcases the striking development of this talented Balinese artist, who has profited considerably from his time spent abroad.

ART & ARTISTS Limited Time Exhibitions

Not very many Balinese artists get the opportunity to study art abroad. Ketut Suwidiarta was born in 1976 in Bongkasa, Badung, and he first studied art at the ISI in Yogyakarta in Central Java. After his graduation, Ketut held a solo exhibition, entitled ‘Sojourn’, at the Rabindranath Tagore Centre, ICCR Calcutta, India. The success of this exhibition allowed him to continue his art studies in the Faculty of Visual Arts in the Rabindra Bharati University at Victoria Memorial Hall, Calcutta, from 2008 until 2010. On completing his studies there, Ketut participated in an award winning exhibition of selected student works from the university’s Art Faculty.

Astral Projections

Now, on his return from India, Ketut has mounted an exhibition at Danes Art Veranda, in Denpasar, to show how his time spent in India has influenced his work. Entitled ‘Ziarah Rupa Suwidiarta’, or, ‘Suwidiarta’s Pilgrimage of Art’, the exhibition has been curated by his friend Putu Wirata Dwikora. In pieces such as ‘Cinta Dunia (World Love)’, Cinta Dunia

More Palm Problems

“Dear Kris ! We have two palms in planter boxes by our pool .One seems healthy, but the other one gets more and more yellow and does not have as many leaves. The unhealthy one does produce much more new roots and also flowers. It would be a real drag to replace this palm, so we like to ask for your help. Best would be a day of training and advice!

the mountaintops still support a high range of bio-diversity. But then again take a look at the hilltops of the Bukit, dry, barren and unfertile. The basic point is that over time minerals will be leeched out of the soil, and you must make sure that you replace them regularly. Over-watering also does more harm than good, because you’re washing the minerals away. Once a plant has become sick, you’ve left it too late.

Warm Regards! Astrid & Martin Friedrich, Candidasa” Recently I have received an increasing amount of emails relating to this topic. Tropical gardening and palms are definitely a specialized area. You have to develop new techniques, the environment is so different and thus you’re approach will have to be different too. For example in a temperate environment a potted palm can survive just on the rainwater it receives. But here in Bali in the dry season if you leave a potted palm in the sun for a week or two with no rain, and no water it could easily die. Anyway I hope that your plants are still alive, and I will endeavor to give you the training and advice that you so desire, right here and now. One of the first things that you need to consider is how long have the plants been potted in the planter box? Palms have a thirst for manganese (Mn) and potassium (K), and a deficiency in either will cause the yellowing and premature death of the fronds. It is likely that the sick tree is the larger, because it has a greater mineral need and therefore will suffer deficiency first. You also said that it is growing many new roots. If you can see the roots coming from the pot, that is not a good sign. It means that the tree is root bound, and without a doubt the pot is full of roots strangling themselves for nutrition, because all the soil has been squeezed out, and there is simply nothing but water to give the plant nutrition. Water dissolves the minerals in the soil rendering them soluble to the plants. No soil = No minerals. As man can survive just on water, but not forever. As a consequence the plant puts all of its energy into producing more roots to find some nutritious soil, but it just ends going around and around and strangles itself to death, a horrible slow way to die! Another thing to consider is that when there is a lot of rain, as in the wet season minerals and elements are much more easily lost from the soil, as rainwater simply washes them away! If your plant is in a pot the problem is infinitely larger, as water passes through the soil the leeched minerals go out the drainage holes and are simply gone forever. In a garden bed it’s a much slower process. The minerals will leach deeper into the soil, and the plants roots can chase them. And if you are on a side slope or valley floor, minerals and elements will be constantly washed down to you from the tops, so no worries there! The land is always most fertile at the bottom of the valley, where thousands of years of rain has dragged mineral rich soil from the mountain tops and deposited it on the valley floors. You can see it when you drive around Bali (the most impressive floodplains I have seen in Bali are on the roads around Serirt, Pupuan and Tabanan. There I have seen the most intensive rice farming in Bali. The land is so fertile, and the amount of rice production is so great for such a small area! The mid to low altitudes is where the environment is more lush, green and diverse, simply because there is a diverse soil full of minerals. On the mountain tops the variety becomes less, although Bali’s volcanic soils are so rich that

In this case though, whether it’s K or Mn deficiency, the core of the problem relates to the plant being root bound and having a general lack of soil medium. Fertilising with K or Mn is useless without a soil medium to absorb it and then pass it on to the plant. I hope that your palm is still hanging in there. There are a myriad of factors to consider. In brief summary here’s what you need to do. You need to move that sick tree to either the ground, its favorite place, or into a new larger pot. Whichever you decide, you will also need to prepare a fresh soil mix, and untangle the roots. Mix soil and compost into a pot or into the garden plot where you would transplant the tree. Use a specialized palm fertiliser it will have the right combinations of the elements that the tree needs, specifically K and Mn. Definitely don’t add a grass or nitrogen (N) rich fertilizer that would be the final nail in the coffin.

Hopefully you can find some seaweed washed upon the beach. Collect a small bag full, wash to remove the salt, put it in a large bucket of water, cover and then leave to brew for a week or two in full sun. Once the water has turned a dark colour, you have your seaweed tea. Put 500ml of this mixed into a 7 litre watering can, and apply, then watch the plants begin to thrive in a matter of days and weeks. It’s the ultimate life giver to your garden. The concentration and diversity of minerals and trace elements within seaweed, sea grass, or sea kelp is just phenomenal, your plants will simply just love it. It is also be important to move this plant to a shady filtered light position whilst it recovers. Do you know why? Filtered light equals less evaporation, it will need less water, and this means more nutrients will be retained within the soil. Obviously a plant in this state is vulnerable and a few days of extreme heat could easily kill it. Give it a holiday in the dappled shade for a few weeks, or even months. If you can’t move it throw a white sheet over it.

C/Ho/G-22 Feb. 12

Important. Don’t cut off any yellowing foliage, even if it looks very yellow, the plants is still drawing nutrients back from the leaves into the plant. Never over trim a palm, that’s a good way to kill it fast! Good luck and please let me know what happens.

This Sporting Life

As we get into 2012, the contact football clubs start their season with some touring following some home fixtures. Rugby Union

The 5th of May saw the second biggest rugby union tournament in Indonesia take place, the biggest being our own Bali 10’s on October 13 and 14. Bali Rugby Club president Nick Mesritz filed this report. Saturday 5th of May saw the Bali Rugby Club send 2 teams to the 22nd annual Jakarta Komodo’s 10’s Rugby tournament: the Open men’s team “The Chillis” and the development side “The Hanoman”. Where as the Chillis are made of mainly expats living in Bali, the Hanoman wholly consisted of local Balinese players. It was an amazing experience for the young Hanoman and they did Bali proud. With an average age of just 17, the boys were up against senior men in all of the 6 games they played. They didn’t take a backwards step all day and were rewarded with their first win against the Tequila Mockingbirds from Hong Kong in the Bowl quarter final. Unfortunately they bowed out in the semis to the BIS Teachers after leading 14-12 right up until the last minute. Player of the tournament for the Hanoman was 17 year old I Made Jayantara, better known as Bakso. Special mention goes to 16 year old Chris Dharma for his length of the field try in the quarter finals. Though if he keeps that up he will be expelled from the front row. The Chillis played well and in typical fashion, got better as the day wore on. After losing only one game from four in the pool round, to eventual Cup winners Serdang Angles from Malaysia 5-0, they came up against a strong Singapore Wanderers outfit in the Cup quarter final. Two costly mistakes at critical times allowed Singapore to run out

winners 7-0, ending the Chillis chance of taking home some silverware. There were no standouts for the team, as all players dug deep throughout the day. 15 year old Francis Mathion got his first start for the Chillis during the tournament and didn’t look out of place alongside men twice his age. Definitely one to watch out for in future years.

C/Ho/G-16 May 12

Upcoming games for the Bali Rugby Club are: Sunday June 3rd: Bali Hanoman vs NZ Yellowbellies. Canggu Club @ 4:00pm. Saturday June 9th: Bali Masters Invitational XV vs NZ Yellowbellies. Venue to be confirmed. Trainings are now on Sundays at Canggu Club from 6:30pm. All welcome AFL Busy schedule for the Geckos After a fantastic weekend in Borneo where the Geckos managed to retain the ANZAC Day Cup with a great onepoint win over the Jakarta Bintangs, the Bali Geckos now start looking towards their next game for the season, the Crikey Cup in Darwin. Saturday 19th May the Bali Geckos will take on the Timor Crocs for the Steve Irwin inspired Crikey Cup, prior to the Western Bulldogs v. Gold Coast at TIO Stadium. With little rest in June the Bali Geckos veterans will participate in the Bali AFL Masters. More on that tournament in the next edition.

Sail the Web “What about the pirates. Aren’t you scared of the pirates?” the first response by most people when you tell them you want to sail around Indonesia. The world wide web or the world wide wait, as some less fortunate’s call it, is undoubtedly phenomenal. There is so much information and media available it is like having your own library, bookstore, movie theatre etc, at your fingertips. At sea, the web is being relied upon more and more to check out the day’s weather, tides, wind direction and speed and with google earth you can get a feel for the topography of your next anchorage. And it doesn’t cost that much. So with the www there is no excuse to head out to sea, on a day trip or start that long held dream of sailing to distance shores, unprepared.

Here are examples of just a few of the web sites that can fire up your imagination and help you learn a lot at the same time. Noonsite - www.noonsite.com The granddaddy of them all. This site is a cruiser’s fantasy. A comprehensive guide to all things cruising across the seven seas. This is a great starting point to get an idea of what cruising is all about in just about any part of the world. Its section on Indonesia is a bit sparse but that is to be expected given the popularity of other sailing destinations like the Med or the Caribbean which are much closer to the USA and European sailing hubs. What is interesting about Noonsite is the information about piracy. It has the latest updates and links to government agencies that monitor the situation and indicates that piracy in Indonesian waters is a rare event. This is different to the commonly held perception. It gets to a point where you stop telling people you want to sail around Indonesia because you have to deal with instant response of, “What about the pirates. Aren’t you scared of the pirates?” Sail Indonesia - www.sailindonesia A great website for those who want to read up on a truly remarkable event. Over 100 yachts and crew leave Darwin in July each year to sail the Indonesian archipelago. The history section is most interesting. Starting off years ago by some intrepid adventurers with events like Darwin to Dili race, Darwin to Kupang Race and Darwin to Ambon race. These races have been interrupted by civil unrest, wars, invasions and religious clashes only to evolve in the biggest sailing event in Asia. If you are looking for a crewing position check out the Crew positions section in the News drop down box. The website is based in Darwin and is regularly updated. sv Ocelot - Cruising Indonesia - http:// hackingfamily.com The amount of effort that has gone into the Hacking family website is huge with the information, maps and observations grabbing your attention. This family have a yacht called sv Ocelot and are currently cruising around the world. The section on

Indonesia is a gift to anyone contemplating cruising in Indonesian waters. They say, “Cruising Indonesia was a treat, but not like any other cruising we’ve done. Few boats go to many of the places we went to, so we usually got an enthusiastic greeting.” There are overview maps that show sv Ocelot’s course from Darwin to Singapore, with hyperlinks to each section of their journey. There you can check out where they anchored, the date, the name of the island or town, Lat/long coordinates and the obligatory comments box. This is a sailor’s blog with photos. Many of the blogs you read about cruising through Indonesia are more like travelogues highlighting trips to local markets, temples and fascinating, some say irritating, observations of local people. Not this one as its focus is on sailing. ISkipper.net - www.iskipper.net This site is a beauty. It is an idiot’s guide to sailing. The presenter is a fantastic English fella and comes across so well with a Liverpool accent that makes you pine for Saint John .... Lennon, that is. It is full of instructional vids, in two parts. First, is a series for people who want to crew on a yacht. Lesson 1 – Parts of the boat. You have got to love that. The second series of vids is for those who skipper yachts and deals with navigation, taking a bearing, variation and deviation and how to steer a correct course in a strong tidal flow. Each video is not more than a couple of minutes long and are easy to understand. If you don’t get it the first time just play the vid again. This guy should be famous and has done a sterling job reducing the mysteries of sailing in a way that is fun to learn but also informative. Medana Bay Marina medanabaymarina.com

Say What? Question: My husband and I have been together for 20 years and married for 17. Years ago, I used to catch him on the computer looking at porn, and he would say he was doing something else, that the porn had just popped up uncontrollably. I didn’t believe him; so, when our computer died, I was in no hurry to get another one. Four years ago, we separated over a couple different problems – his drinking and temper -- and got back together after a short time.

Question: I’m 19 years old, and my boyfriend is 23. We have been together for 3 years, and I’ve made a lot of mistakes. I have trouble with his sister because she doesn’t like me, and she lives in the same compound as us. Well, it used to be us. He just recently moved me out and said that we need a break. She doesn’t like me anyways. He said that I need to change, and I want to, but it’s hard. I love him with all my heart, and I want to make things right again. I need some advice. So what do you think?

A few months ago, I finally broke down and bought another computer. I figured I could possibly trust him at this point. Then, one day I came home and checked the history, which he had yet to figure out how to erase, and I found that he was looking at porn again. Only this time it wasn’t just women; it was pictures of men with large genitals.

Dr. ZZ: The first thing that strikes me about your relationship is that you were 16 when you first started dating this young man. Although 19 and 23 does not raise a red flag, 16 and 20 does. You say you made a lot of mistakes; that is reasonable. You were just a child at the time, and children are supposed to make mistakes. That’s how we learn. Making mistakes in relationships comes with the territory. We all make mistakes; the idea is to learn from them.

I was sick to my stomach. I have yet to say anything. Instead, I installed a key-logger, which has been very helpful. I wanted to see how often this was occurring, and what kind of sites he went too. Since I’ve been monitoring, I’ve seen lots of generic porn and plenty of gay men, she-males, men seeking men, you get the picture. I’m ready to ask for a divorce because I worry that he is gay. As far as I know, he hasn’t met up with anyone because we have a joint account, and I see all his searches. I need your opinion. Does this mean he’s gay? Please help. Dr. ZZ: Apparently your husband likes men, and he also seems to like you. Chances are you’re not the only one having difficulty reconciling these two facts. You need to talk this over with him since only he can answer your questions. He may just be gay curious, or he may be checking himself out against the merchandise online. As a general rule, however, it is unusual for straight men to spend a lot of time looking at gay porn. If he is not gay, you are worrying for nothing. If, on the other hand, he is gay -- regardless of what you see on the computer -- he may be engaging in behaviors that puts you and him at risk. (A lot of men don’t consider sex with other men to be cheating on their wives.) Perhaps a therapist can help the two of you wade through these details. But be prepared for your husband to get upset that you have been keeping tabs on him. People who truly love and trust each other don’t snoop and install key-loggers. The question you need to ask yourself is if it’s worth being in a relationship with someone you don’t trust and around whom you feel a constant need to play detective.

Once a family member doesn’t like you, it is doubtful that they will change their minds. Your boyfriend may have done you a favor. You don’t need that kind of negative energy. This is apparently the only boyfriend you have ever had, and you are in the midst of your “dating years.” The best idea may be to learn from your mistakes in this relationship and apply what you have learned to your next one. You may not need to change as your current boyfriend says, or you may need to stretch beyond your comfort zone. We all get used to things – jobs, relationships, where we live. Sometimes change is good. My best advice is that you take some time away from your boyfriend and his family, and see what happens. Although it will be hard at first, it is important for you to date other people, to not get too serious with any of them, to have fun, and to enjoy your life. Learn how to date, how to be in relationships, and how to be happy. Then and only then, in a couple of months or more -- after you have been away from your current boyfriend for a while, have accomplished some critical self-reflection, and have gained a bit more perspective -- you will be able to discern more clearly exactly what was your fault and what wasn’t. This whole episode could end up being a blessing in disguise. It is a chance for you to clear the air, to land on your own two feet, to get some perspective, and to move on with your life if you desire to once you get your head screwed on straight.

QUICK & SMART SERVICES WE DO ALL BUILDING SERVICES

“Life in the Toxic Lane” My father lived to the ripe old age of 93 not bad for a bloke who by modern advice should have been kicking the bucket at age about two and a half months. He lived through 2 world wars, his food was cooked in animal fat for most of his life, he loved salt, took sugar in his tea, smoked for the first 50 years and probably didn’t know what yoga was never mind practicing it. In those days you didn’t check your cholesterol you just ate it for breakfast. Of course there were some balancing factors, he always ate lots of vegetables while meat was expensive, bread was baked using such primitive ingredients as flour and yeast, eggs came out of free range chickens and even milk came from cows. It is safe to say the food industry and the chemical industry did not have a lot in common. Times have changed a bit haven’t they? Pick up a package in a supermarket and you need a degree in chemistry to even start to understand what we are putting down our necks. Passing through a modern day mall and those ever more ubiquitous “bakeries” remind me of walking past an ICI chemical plant on a hot day. Trying to eat a healthy diet these days is like being a sniper with Parkinson’s disease. Nothing seems to stay still. One day one food ingredient is the worst thing in the world, next day it’s something totally different. I take a practical approach, I try and avoid foods that contain cyanide and arsenic is not amongst my favourite antioxydents. The real worry these days is the insidious use of nasty stuff that creeps into our lives unseen. This is particularly concerning in Indonesia where we are constantly told of dodgy food such as melamine in milk, methylated spirit in Arak and fish stored in formaldehyde. These days we are surrounded by chemicals and I often cringe when I pass shelves full of insecticides and other poisons in supermarkets. We trust that we are being protected from dangerous substances but are we? I remember as a child my father buying containers of a white powder he used to sprinkle on his roses, it was a sort of talcum powder to control unwanted guests (now that could be useful). It was in fact DDT and was used to kill garden pests.

in agriculture.

Are toxic to humans and wildlife. Remain intact for exceptionally long periods of time. Become widely distributed in the environment. Accumulate in the fatty tissue or living organisms and become more concentrated higher up the food chain.

The dirty dozen are: Aldrin, Chlordane, DDT, Dieldrin, Dioxin, Endrin, Furans, Heptachlor, Hexachlorobenzene (HCB), Mirex, Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) and Toxaphene. Of these DDT is still used in some parts of the world in the fight against malaria. Most of these nasties are Organochlorides or chlorinated hydrocarbons which were widely used as insecticides. It is interesting to note how many of these nasty chemicals were sprayed liberally around and under houses for treatment against termites. A picnic on the lawn takes on a whole other meaning, “toxic sandwich vicar? Perhaps a chloride cookie”. Organochlorides are not the only widely used nasties. Organophosphates are not exactly healthfoods. They work by irreversibly inactivating an enzyme which is essential to nerve function in insects, humans, and many other animals. They are used as insecticides, herbicides but also more notably as spyicides, they are the chemicals used as nerve gases (ever heard of Sarin?). They easily degrade on exposure to sunlight, air, and soil (although small amounts can be detected in food and drinking water) which made them attractive when organochlorides were banned. Often banned for residential use organophosphates are still widely used

C/BM/I-02 May 12

In recent years a major change came and termite chemicals were developed that represented a different strategy for eradication. The earlier insecticides were repellent, termites could smell and taste them and were repelled by them. Termites that came into direct contact were killed while the rest were not. Termites simply went around the insecticide. The insecticide was used as an impermeable barrier around a building, any gap in the barrier and the termites would get through. The latest chemicals use a more stealthy approach, they are non repellent. They are tasteless and odourless to termites which burrow through treated ground then later return to the nest taking the insecticide with them. This is then transferred from termite to termite killing the whole colony. To work effectively these are slow acting insecticides that allow time for dispersal through the termite colony. Two of these new generation termite chemicals are Fipronil and Imidacloprid both of which work by disrupting the insects central nervous system.

Imidacloprid is manufactured by Bayer and is the active ingredient in insecticides sold under the trade names Admire, Condifor, Dominion, Gaucho, Premier, Premise, Provado, and Marathon.

For many years termite insecticides have been an area of particular concern. The earlier chemicals were pretty nasty and pyrethroids provide safer, though still toxic, chemicals compared to the organochlorides.

Time passed as is its wont.

Natural Pyrethrum was extracted from East African chrysanthemum flowers, a known natural insecticide. The active ingredients were identified and copied and in the 1960s 1st generation Pyrethroids were developed. By the 1970s more effective though more toxic and less biodegradable 2nd generation pyrethroids were developed that are more suitable for agriculture.

Fibronil is manufactured by Bayer and marketed in different parts of the world under the names Termidor, Ultrathor, Taurus, Regent, Goliath, Nexa, Chipco Choice and Adonis. It is also used in flea control products for pets under the trade names Frontline and PetArmor.

Rachel’s book was a major influence on the formation of the environmental movement and lead to the banning of DDT in America in 1972 which in turn lead to the creation of the Dirty Dozen which are toxic chemicals known as Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and banned in 2001 by international treaty at the Stockholm Convention. The dirty dozen are chemicals that:

* Electrical * Plumbing * Carpentry * Roof and Floor

As the dirty dozen were identified and banned a new generation of insecticides were developed and banned chemicals were replaced by pyrethroids which now constitute the majority of commercial household insecticides. They quickly knock down flying insects but, in the concentrations used in such products, are generally harmless to human beings but can harm sensitive people. Normally they break down in one or two days by sunlight and the atmosphere. Pyrethroids are toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms but do not significantly affect groundwater quality.

DDT was first synthesised back in 1874 but it was not until 1939 when its use as an insecticide was discovered and was used very effectively to control the spread of typhus and malaria during the second world war. After the war it was introduced as an agricultural insecticide and became very widely used. In 1948 Swiss chemist Paul Hermann Muller received the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the efficacy of DDT as an insecticide.

In 1962 biologist Rachel Hunter published a book called Silent Spring which examined the environmental impact of the widespread use of DDT and the lack of understanding of the risks to the environment and to people. The book suggested that DDT might cause cancer and be a threat to wildlife.

While highly toxic to termites and other insects both are classed as only moderately toxic to humans. In animals and humans, Fipronil poisoning symptoms are vomiting, agitation, and seizures while Imidacloprid symptoms, including fatigue, twitching, cramps, and muscle weakness including the muscles necessary for breathing. Fipronil is highly toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates, to bees and to upland game birds, but is practically nontoxic to waterfowl and other bird species. Imidacloprid is toxic to upland game birds, highly toxic to bees but relatively harmless to fish. To summarise, when you are selecting a termite control company it is a good idea to check the chemicals they plan to use. Ask for the brand name of the chemical but also ask for the active ingredient which will tell you the type of insecticide and its toxicity. You may find they use one of the following five chemicals: Chlorpyrifos - an organophosphate insecticide, nasty stuff and banned for use in residential areas in America, it is to be avoided. Bifenthrin and Deltamethrin - pyrethroid insecticides much safer but still older generation, more toxic and less effective than new generation chemicals. Fipronil and Imidacloprid - the latest non repellent termite treatment chemicals a lot more expensive but far more effective than the older chemicals. Perhaps another insecticide to be aware of is the active ingredient commonly used for mosquito fogging which is a pyrethroid called cypermethrin.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Save the Sarong, Keep the Kamben! A sarong is called a kamben in Balinese. However, unlike their Javanese counterparts, kamben are not sewn together at the ends; so to wear one probably, you need to be adept at folding and tying, and then top it off with a sash called a selempot. I’ve always thought it’d be something of a statement if the Bali Government made a law when everyone in Bali were to wear a kamben, instead of their western equivalents, which would be ‘heavily discouraged”. Then I think all of us would really feel like we were on a wee tropical island on the equator. It would also better reflect the laid-back island lifestyle – I’m sure even government officials in Samoa wear sarong, flowery shirts and hibiscus behind the ear. Over the last couple of decades I’ve noticed that wearing kamben on a day to day basis is a dying art. How can we possibly save the sarong with all the external pressure (literally) from tight jeans and skimpy shorts that are flaunted on the streets of Bali?

C/E/G-18 April 12

According the hippest downtown Denpasar youngsters, sarong are no longer wear (sic) it’s at. Kamben are for ceremonies, playing gamelan or dancing, but if you wear one every day out and about (unless you’re a tourism slave), you’ve just plastered kampungan (‘à la village’). When I’ve taken Balinese traditional musicians touring overseas, in vain I’ve tried to get them to wear their kamben at the airport as part of their Balinese gamelan identity: “I’m a gonger and proud!”; but this sparked protest amongst the young lads: “The airport staff make fun of us – they treat us differently to other travellers because they think we’re fresh out of the village!” Tragic… The irony is that kamben are super practical – light to wash, quick to dry, can double as a bed sheet, you can wipe your nose or mouth on them, they have built in air conditioning when you’re on the motorbike, and they come in such wicked colours and funky motifs. On top of all this, they’re sexy, elegant, and just so Balinese… Save the sarong, keep the kamben!

ELPH 530 HS / 320 HS

More Gadgets Galore. This is an ‘All Camera’ issue. Three Canons and one Nikon. Enjoy. CANON EOS 5D MARK III DSLR ANNOUNCED Canon is at the forefront of DSLR technology yet again with their latest model, the EOS 5D Mark III. The Canon EOS 5D Mark III will be placed in between the extremely popular EOS 5D Mark II as well as Canon’s top end model, the venerable EOS-1D X. Just what does the EOS 5D Mar k III carry? For starters, it is capable of delivering superb image quality courtesy of its new 22.3-megapixel full-frame Canon CMOS sensor, which works in tandem with a high-performance DIGIC 5+ Imaging Processor, a 61-point High Density Reticular Autofocus (AF) System and six frames-per-second (fps) continuous shooting speed. Tthe body alone will retail for a rather hefty $3,499. For those who want to pick it up with the EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM zoom lens kit, that will bump the price up to $4,299. At least you know where your salary is going to at the end of this month. http://www.canon.com

POWERSHOT A-SERIES CAMERAS Thought Canon was done with the point-andshoot updates after refreshing its ELPH lineup last month? Think again, as the company is updating its PowerShot A-Series shooters with six new models in a variety of colors. All the cameras pack a 16-megapixel sensor, 28mm wide angle lens and can take 720p video. First up is the A4000 IS, which brings image stabilization, 8X optical zoom and a 3-inch LCD for $200 later this month. The A3400 IS and A2400 IS make their debuts in March, and bring the same image stabilization as the 4000, but have a lesser 5X optical zoom. Additionally, the 3400 packs a 3-inch touchscreen LCD and costs $180, while the 2400 gets a smaller non-touchscreen 2.7-inch LCD and retails for $150. Meanwhile, the A2300 has the same specs as the 2400, minus the image stabilization, and will cost ten bucks less than its brother. Finally, the PowerShot A1300 and A810 each come with 5X optical zoom and a 2.7-inch LCD when they debut, with the A810 priced at $110 and the A1300 available for $120. http://www.canon.com

In addition to the new additions to Canon’s A-Series of digital cameras, the company is also giving more demanding consumers a similar outpouring of love with four additional shooters in the PowerShot family, which sport a diverse array of features such as WiFi connectivity, 20x optical zoom and rugged designs. Leading the charge for the ELPH lineup is the 530 HS. Along with the 320 HS, it features the ability to wirelessly upload images to Canon’s online portal, where users may then post their latest captures to Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The ELPH 530 HS features a 12x optical zoom lens paired with a 10 megapixel sensor and is expected to retail for $349 in April. Meanwhile, the 320 HS delivers a 5x optical zoom lens and a 16.1 megapixel sensor. It’ll carry a $280 price tag. Both ELPH models feature Canon’s DIGIC 5 image processor, capture 1080p video and include a 3.2-inch LCD touchscreen.

http://www.canon.com NIKON D800 Thirty six megapixels. That’s the native resolution of Nikon’s long-awaited FX-format digital SLR. The D800 was designed with all professional photographers in mind, but with 36.3-megapixel captures (yes, that also means 36.3 megapixels in RAW, or 15.4 in DX format), the Japanese camera maker’s latest DSLR output is likely to far exceed the needs of many. It also limits low-light shooting capabilities -- the D800 is a full-frame camera, but even so, with a standard sensor capturing 36.3 megapixels, its high-ISO performance is unlikely to match the likes of the D4, or Canon’s new 1D X. It’s for this reason that Nikon limited the camera’s top native sensitivity to ISO 6400, or 25,600 in Hi2 extended mode. Significantly smaller than the monstrous D4, the D800 isn’t the most compact full-frame DSLR that Nikon’s released to date. It’s noticeably taller than the D700 (by roughly half an inch), with a higher pentaprism and smooth appearance. But a new body design isn’t the only element differentiating the D800 from its predecessor. The camera offers excellent contrast-detection autofocus, allowing you to sharpen your subjects much more quickly while in live view. The D800 also offers video improvements, and lets you capture 29 minutes and 59 seconds in a single clip in normal quality mode. Because of the DSLR’s larger footprint, you’ll need to upgrade your grip along with the camera -- the MB-D12 attachment uses the same battery as the D4, and boosts the camera’s burst mode from four frames per second to six in DX mode.

Restaurant Review

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

Indian with a Twist! Queen’s of India is a follow-on to the very successful Queen’s Tandoor in Seminyak, by the same management and an extension of the Queens of India brand first opened at the front gate entrance to the Dynasty Hotel in Tuban. It heralds the steady upgrading of available dining locations along this centre of Tandjung Benoa, more fitting to complement the beach front quality hotels that are forever appearing here than the previous same-same tourist restaurants. This Queens of India restaurant is opposite the entrance to the Conrad Hotel.

smooth Butter Chicken [pictured], for others the ambrosial Rogan Josh. But my measuring stick has always been that treat from Goa, the Vindaloo. Some go the macho route and make it ridiculously hot, whereas in fact it should just be richly piquant. At Queen’s of India the Mutton Vindaloo is as close to perfect as you can get. It has big soft chunks of meat [not soggy lumps of fat as in some other Indian restaurants], a classic. It should not come as a surprise that the Rogan Josh and Butter Chicken are also excellent, although the Chicken Tikka Makhanwala [a more complex butter chicken with a long overnight preparation] is sensational and one of the greatest dishes I have ever tasted. From the Tandoor [watch them prepare it through the kitchen glass windows] are many seafood dishes. Chicken Kalimirch [wrapped with ground black peppercorns], Jaffran [wrapped in saffron], Harra [marinated in mint] and Kastoori [with the distinctive flavour of fenugreek] are all uniquely different. Prawns from the Tandoor are almost as good as chicken. Ambi Prawns [flavoured with raw mango] are the most different. Other standards include Keema Mutter [minced lamb with green peas], Muntani Chicken Kofta [minced chicken wrapped in an egg coating] and the Prawn Hydrabadi [cooked with spinach, cashew nuts, and unusual spices].

The restaurant features an immaculate stainless steel kitchen with full sized observation windows, unusual for an Indian restaurant, as many prefer to keep their kitchens unobserved. Nothing to hide here! Whilst many standard items, in fact all of the old favourites, are found on this menu, it is a radical new ‘fusion’ style that catches the most applause! Called, just simply, Sizzlers, the meats have been half processed in the tandoor after suitable marination in yoghurt and spices, then sliced and into the wok with mushrooms and other vegetables. Served on a sizzling platter the result is an Indian/Chinese fusion that really works. You can have the chicken, mutton, fish, prawns, paneer or just assorted vegetables on their own. The result satisfies both the Chinese lover and the Tandoori freak. The Chicken Sizzler was quite sensational, one of those simple yet classic dishes that you cannot stop eating. The only things missing were the chopsticks! Queens of India also has many menu items that could be called entrees, or one of those mid-afternoon anytime snacks. The infamous Samosa [copied by many non-Indian restaurants but never tasting the same] leads the way, packed full of a vegetable mix, coated in that crisp pastry with curry dipping sauce. Kalmi Chicken is more unusual; chicken legs marinated in egg, cream and a thick paste of ginger and garlic, then grilled over charcoal. The quaintly named Frankies are wonderful, although they are pictured someone forgot to actually include them on the menu, but they are available and tasty! Thin pastry wrapped around cottage cheese combined with tomato, onion and salsa. Same shape as a Frankfurt but could not be more different! Most people have their own yardsticks for comparing restaurants of like cuisine. For Indian restaurants many compare the silky

No cuisine has the range of rice dishes as they do in India, the Kashmiri Pulao [studded with dried fruits] has always been my 1st choice. Here there are many including the pure rice dish, Biryani. Rotis, many of which are cooked in the tandoor, include Nan, Paratha, Roomali, Phulka and Kulcha. A new one for me was the Afgani Nan; stuffed with cheese and coated with egg, the end product slightly rubbery so firm to hold and perfect for dunking in that wonderful vindaloo, in true Indian style!

Another style unique to Queen’s is their Hot Bowl Rice. A very hot bowl contains a serve of Indian rice and your choice of seasoned meats or seafood, on the side thin slices of egg-coated potato. It is an unusual meal-for-one. As is always the case with quality Indian restaurants the vegetarian options include the full range of tastes from the various regions and cooking styles of India. Whether a simple Samosa or Kashmiri Kebab [a capsicum stuffed with potato, cheese, dried fruits and spices of course], the wonderful Harra Paneer Tikka [cottage cheese marinated in a mint masala then char grilled], old favourite Malai Kofta [vegetable croquettes in a creamy curry] or my new favourite taste sensation, Queen’s Paneer Corn Bhurjee. Their homemade cottage cheese is grated and combined with corn kernels and spices in the wok, the finished product looking almost like scrambled eggs, the taste unreal! And there is always the grand daddy of cholesterol fixes; Indian Dhal, magic lentils, yellow, black or red, although in their tastiest form they are cooked with butter and cream! Oh well, you can not win them all! What a change to have a quality mid-range budget priced restaurant in this area. Queen’s of India in Tandjung Benoa is certain to enjoy the same constant support as famous big brother Queens’ Tandoor in Seminyak, and Bali’s dining options just keep on expanding. P.S. A 3rd Queens of India will be opening in Ubud, very soon!

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Prisoners at Kota Cane by Leon Salim Very little has been written about the twilight of Dutch rule in the Netherlands Indies in the period immediately after the Japanese army swept through Java and parachuted its forces into southern Sumatra. Few remember that when the Dutch Commanderin-Chief, Lt. General Hein Ter Poorten, surrendered to the Japanese in Kali Jati on March 9, 1942, it did not mark the end of Dutch control throughout the Indies. Unexpectedly, major elements of the colonial government in Sumatra held out for another three weeks before finally capitulating at Kota Cane on March 28. Prisoners at Kota Cane recounts the events of those final days of colonialism in Sumatra from the perspective of an Indonesian nationalist arrested by the Dutch shortly after Ter Poorten’s surrender on Java. Along with other nationalist leaders, Leon Salim was taken captive by the Dutch army when they retreated from central Sumatra to fend off an imminent attack by invading Japanese forces. The reason for his arrest was that Salim had actively sought to accelerate the end of Dutch rule in West Sumatra by organizing mass demonstrations. The Dutch had hoped that the region of West Sumatran with it’s strategic terrain of hills and valleys as well as the formidable Bukit Barisan mountain range would present a nearly impregnable line of defence against the Japanese advance. But when the native population learned that the Dutch planned to defend the region by employing a scorched-earth policy, a group of young men rose up to oppose making their Minangkabau homeland a battlefield in the defence of colonialism. Padang Panjang, a small town in West Sumatra, formed the center of the Indonesians’ anti-scorched earth struggle for the whole of Sumatra. They demanded that the Duch Indies authorities hand over the government to the Indonesian people and not pass the land over to the Japanese as if they were “dead objects.” A massive demonstration was planned in which enormous red and white flags – the symbol of Indonesian independence – would be flown in brazen defiance of colonial regulations. Before the demonstration could take place, the Dutch raided the headquarters and homes of the young fighters. Of the dozens arrested, six men were harshly interrogated, ordered on to trucks and hurriedly taken along in a military convoy from Padang Panjang to Aceh in northern Sumatra to stand trial at a military court in the last Dutch holdout of Kota Cane. Salim’s memoir is a riveting day-by-day account of that 20 day journey from March 11th to April 2nd, 1942. An atmosphere of dread and foreboding pervades the story. The Japanese army had landed at Sibolga and were moving inland, bombing villages around Lake Toba, and the drone of the enemy’s spotter aircraft could be heard above the slow-moving convoy. At one point in a quiet spot in the middle of the rainforest, the trucks stopped and the prisoners were sure that they were going to be shot and their lifeless bodies thrown down a ravine. Salim vividly

recollects the journey along the way - the stifling heat, a guard’s hand crushed, passing the faces of terrified Dutch soldiers in full retreat, the wails of air raid sirens, blinding tropical rainstorms, negotiating rickety narrow bridges. For part of the journey they were put on to a fully loaded munitions truck. The nights were cold and dark, the dimmed headlights of the vehicles stabbing the darkness. The ever-present fear of a Japanese onslaught stalked the panicked Dutch soldiers and army reservists. Finally arriving in Kota Cane in the Alas region of northern Sumatra, the Dutch army’s last stronghold in all of Indonesia, the six prisoners were put before the final military tribunal of 350 years of colonial rule. Shortly afterwards, the Dutch abandoned the town without a struggle. Through the bars of their jail cell, the prisoners could see the Japanese troops encircle the huge military camp on their bicycles, their bodies covered with grass and weeds. Freed by the Japanese, the Indonesian prisoners started heading home, hitching rides on captured Dutch cars past war-scarred towns, looted houses, lines of reugees and the stench of corpses.

Bunisari No. 36 A, Kuta - Bali C/G/G-2 Nov. 11

Although the pace is generally taut, the book is intensely subjective – both its strength and its weakness. The author has a penchant for uttering impassioned oaths, typical of the nationalist literature of the time. At the same time, Salim has the eye of a reporter, explaining general aspects of Dutch administration in the Indies and providing telling details and anecdotes which reveal the bitter animosity the Indonesians felt towards Dutch soldiers and officials. Indeed, reading of the racial arrogance and callousness of the Dutch, I found myself looking forward to the day of reckoning when the Dutch masters were going to get their comeuppance. When it finally happens, the former tormentors shackled and trembling with fear, their faces pale and heads bowed, forced to carry out the most degrading manual hard labor, the moment is savored by the reader. But it wasn’t long before Indonesians realized that they were just replacing one colonial power for another. Their fellow Asian were to prove even more ruthless, fascist and cruel than the Dutch had ever been. As the author puts it, their homeland had been “freed from the mouth of a tiger and was now in the jaws of a lion.”

NC/G/I-16 May 12

This little book, which can be read easily in two sittings, is an important contribution to our understanding of this little known period of Indonesia’s modern history. Prisoners of Kota Cane makes learning history exciting because the book reads like a suspenseful war novel. The fact that all the events depicted are true makes Leon Salim’s story even more powerful and reinforces the old saw that truth is stranger than fiction. Prisoners at Kota Cane by Leon Salim, Equinox Publishing 2010, ISBN-978-6028397544, paperback, 146 pages, maps, illustrations, dimensions: 23 cm X 15 cm (6 x 9 inches).

As soon as there is Life, there is Danger Indonesian construction workers in Bali By Skye Laphroaig

Construction is one of the most dangerous land-based work sectors in Asia with hazards and risks being very difficult to control in a constantly changing work environment. The leading safety hazards on site are falls from height, motor vehicle crashes, excavation accidents, electrocution, injury from machines, and being struck by falling objects. Fall protection can be provided by personal fall arrest systems, but these don’t really exist on the island; which is probably why the other day, while sitting at a traffic light, I made a quick U-turn to get a closer look at some construction workers from outside Bali. It made me wonder; did they consider tying a rebar at great height (with no fall protection) a display of fearless disposition, or was it done for financial gain alone?

MAKE SHIFT CAMPS The Javanese carry out their life optimistically, viewing work (mergawe) as obligatory for any living human being. Behind the work site is a make shift camp typical to any construction site across the island, where women and families of the workers live together. They sleep in small units with three cots and no mattress. There are washrooms, and cardboard partitions for modesty so they can get dressed. I meet Ibu Narti who’s running the on-site shop, her baby sleeps next to the fan and people often drop in for a chat - there’s a real sense of community here. Back with the workers, I notice a man sucking on a paper cone, which is a large diameter hand-rolled cigarette. When I mention this to Peter, he decides it’s time to go and refresh tobacco supplies.

INDONESIAN CONSTRUCTION WORKERS Construction is widely regarded as an accident -prone industry. There are statutory instruments and legislative frameworks in many developed countries to govern construction operations on site and help reduce health and safety hazards. However, the characteristics of construction in developing countries are not the same as in developed countries. The primary reasons are a lack of strong institutional framework for governing construction activities and poor enforcement of health and safety policies and procedures. Also, Indonesian society does not place a high premium on health and safety of these construction workers on site. Most workers interviewed indicated that injuries and accidents are common on sites and often they have to plead with employers before they are provided with some form of compensation.

“Cigarettes are like heroin to my guys, explains Peter, I’ll go to the shop and buy some packets now and you’ll see what I mean.” 15 minutes later, Peter returns with a plastic bag containing 10 packets of local high tar, clove Gudang Garam cigarettes and walks around the site in the mud and the heat, chucking packets up to men balancing on beams and down into the 2.5 metre hole where Pak Slamat thanks him kindly. Slamat has been in the construction industry since the age of 14 and was born in 1951. Like most of the workers on site, he has been on Peters land for five months straight. I ask him to describe the typical working life for men from East Java.

Having said that, the government has started to provide protection and standard safety regulation for workers, but when I asked the men why they perform such reckless work without any protection? They say: “We are used to working like this, ropes and boots just get in our way”. Damn those guys are tough! Many construction workers live on the project site while the development is going up and they work at least 10 hours a day for about $5 a day depending on their skill levels. Some overseas contractors say only Indonesians are prepared to put up with the harsh equatorial heat and tough conditions on construction sites. THEY NEVER COMPLAIN Peter Forbes is an Australian builder by trade and in the process of constructing six large contemporary houses on land covering 38 are (0.939 acre) in the popular area of south Seminyak. Each luxury house is on a single level and fully enclosed with air con throughout, offering en-suite spacious bedrooms with lavish bathrooms. As a result of good planning, the houses are well positioned and beautifully cool by comparison to the high temperatures outside. Knowing how fast the workers construct, Peter passes by the site every day to oversee them, just in case certain parts of the house go up backwards or upside down - a sight every ex-pat who builds in Bali is familiar with. Peter shows me around the land and I meet 37 workers who are all from East Java and seem pretty content on their humble wages. Three men are positioned below, standing in a rain logged hole, digging and removing earth with buckets that are handed to women, who then walk up planks with the heavy buckets on their heads. The women are as strong as the men. I tell the crew I think they are remarkably strong in their own language and they don’t bother to disagree with me, each man flexes his muscles and flashes a warm smile. Traditionally Indonesians work in bare feet or thongs with plastic bags hanging from the walls containing liquid of varying colours for refreshment. Almost everything is done by hand here. Back home in Java, machines are nearly non-existent and expensive so people learn to do the job without. Indeed four men were responsible for digging the 10-meter swimming pool over three days. They chose to dig the foundations by pick and shovel, sheltered from 36 degree heat by a piece of plywood which was supported by a stick double their height. One man can dig a footing in five days on his own which earns him 250,000 Rupiah.

Narendra “The operation is not an expression of the anti-migrant worker sentiment, but to anticipate security threats, such as the infiltration of terrorists,” he added “Migrant workers must apply for ID cards and report themselves to the relevant government agencies immediately after they take residence in Bali.”

DEMAND IS HIGH The construction sector including road development, maintenance and hotel construction, is continuously growing with constant demand for a greater number of labourers. A large majority of construction workers come from outside Bali, in particular from East Java, Madura Island and Lombok Island. There is similar demand in the trade sector including the need for food vendors and basic commodities traders. These migrant workers are willing to do jobs that the local Balinese are reluctant to do. Most of these jobs lie in the non-formal sector and up to 90 percent of the migrant workers find employment in this sector. For example, Made Bagiada (pioneer of the garbage bank in Denpasar) has not found many local Balinese people willing to work collecting trash. “The Balinese generally want jobs in a clean environment. They are willing to work as a waiter or shop assistant because those jobs will place them in clean surroundings. Here I give my workers a good salary and bonus, yet it is still difficult to attract local workers,” he said.

“I work here as much as I can and then go home on the ferry from Gilimanuk to Java to see my family for one week before returning to Bali for the next job”. Slamat is obviously very proud of his employment history, no such thing as living off government handouts here! Indeed there’s a huge amount of pride in this line of work together with high spirits and a strong work ethic. Although we constantly witness Indonesian workers rapidly changing the shape of the island, a clash of belief system prevents this workforce from being accepted as ‘respectable members of Balinese society’. BALI NEEDS MIGRANT WORKERS The Balinese seem to blame the Javanese for everything, despite the fact many problems on Bali are clearly home grown. One reason for Balinese antipathy towards the Javanese is the fact many of the large hotels in Bali are owned or part owned by Javanese companies, built on land that was bought at ‘knock down’ purchase price on the basis that the hotels would brings jobs to Balinese; when in most cases they brought in Javanese workers. Bali still needs migrant workers despite the animosity that a large number of Balinese silently harbour toward non-Balinese migrant workers, the island needs them to cope with the growing demand for manual labourers, especially in the construction industry. Their role is critical in turning the economic wheel, particularly in the trade and construction sectors. The fact that the island still needs migrant workers is the very reason why every operation targeting this population must be carried out respectfully. There are several jobs that the Balinese are reluctant to do and migrant workers are required to fill those jobs. Non-Balinese residents with steady jobs can apply for resident ID cards while those with non-steady jobs, including labourers and construction workers, can apply for temporary resident ID cards. Bali routinely launches operations that targeting nonBalinese migrant workers. Those who are found without proper ID cards are deported back to their hometowns in the neighbouring islands of Java and Lombok. According to Civil Registration office head Nyoman Gede

Other countries expressing strong interest in Indonesian migrant workers include Australia, Malaysia, the United Arab Emirates, the Netherlands and Afghanistan. But the biggest challenge to Indonesian migrant workers is a lack of good English skills and the fact they get very homesick. On the first day of the Trade Expo Indonesia 2011, the national migrant workers placement board was inundated with requests from 16 countries for hundreds of thousands of non-domestic Indonesian workers. Australia requested 100,000 formal workers for the next 10 years. They will be placed as nurses, medical equipment operators, care workers in nursery homes and other jobs such as ambulance drivers. OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE Because tourism is so prominent in Bali, the island has a reputation across Indonesia as an ideal place to work - a ‘get rich quick’ location and therefore, migrants who initially tend to find work in areas where they have no former education other than the skills they learn on-the-job, have continued to be attracted to Bali and economic considerations are the primary motivator for migration to Bali. Most women migrate to follow husbands or other family members or for education. For women, work related reasons are not as significant a motivator as they are for their male counterparts. Most vendors in the tourist hotspots are not Balinese but other migrants from Indonesia, mainly Java who typically do not speak Balinese and are not Hindu. This means the individuals with whom tourists come into contact with on the beaches and streets of Bali are not Balinese, although the tourists probably do not realise this. There are approximately 800,000 non-Balinese temporary residents in Bali, the large majority of which are migrant workers. At present, they are in demand due to rapid development of real estate investment and high-end 5-star projects under development on the Bukit peninsula, the south side of the island. In spite of many changes caused by the quick development of Bali’s economy, the island continues to be voted ‘the most enchanting travel and holiday destination in the world’ and land prices, despite the worldwide economic crisis have remained stable. The future looks bright for Indonesian construction workers. Copyright © 2012 Bali Advertiser You can read all past articles of BA Feature Article at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

Local News Ubud to get Million Dollar Face-Lift Ubud will undergo a million dollar face-lift in the next five years to improve its outdated infrastructure as well as to strengthen its position as the resort island’s cultural Mecca. In a small gathering on Friday (4/5) afternoon at Ubud royal palace, Gianyar regent Tjokorda Artha Ardana Sukawati, who is also a member of the influential royal family of Ubud, outlined to the Tourism and Creative Economy Minister Mari Elka Pangestu measures that would be taken to improve Ubud and other areas in Gianyar. The meeting was also attended by Tjokorda Putra Sukawati, the penglingsir (chief elder) of the Ubud royal family, and Jusuf Wanandi, an Ubud resident and chairman of Bali Bangkit, a cultural movement aimed at promoting Balinese traditional fine arts heritages. The regent said that Ubud would be developed as a tourism destination with traditional culture and village life at its core. He acknowledged that at present Ubud was plagued by numerous problems, including chronic traffic jams that had become a regular sight on its main streets. Local residents, he said, could afford to buy a car but could not build a garage. Consequently, they parked their cars on the side of the street. The situation was further aggravated by the increasing number of visitors, a large majority of which also parked their vehicles on the sides of the street. To deal with the traffic problem, the Gianyar administration has planned to build an alternative road and two central parking facilities. The road and a new bridge north of the palace are expected to ease traffic in the downtown area. The road next to the palace will be closed for regular traffic

and designated as a “cultural avenue”, along which only cultural processions and activities will be allowed. The first central parking facility will be built on the eastern outskirts of the town on a plot of land currently occupied by the Ubud police station. The second facility will be an underground, three-story parking facility that will be constructed below a soccer field. This underground facility would be able to accommodate up to 1,000 vehicles. Both parking facilities are estimated to cost Rp 197 billion (US$21.47 milllion). The next stage of the facelift is the renovation of Ubud market, a sprawling and bustling commercial compound south of the palace. It is thought that the market will be designed so that all the stores will face inward instead of outward, with the number of stores limited to 260 and a spacious plaza around the market being built to enable tourists and locals to relax. The traders who could not get a store in the market will be relocated to a new, modern art and souvenir market in nearby Singakerta village. This market is currently being constructed on 3.5 hectares of land. Mari supported the regent’s idea, stating that if Ubud could solve its traffic jam problem then it could still be an attractive destination for tourists. As a preliminary measure, the minister suggested that the local administration could try to implement car-free zones, including by providing special shuttle buses to ferry visitors from parking areas outside Ubud into destinations in downtown Ubud.

11-Time World Champion Surfer Kelly Slater Helping Environmental Efforts to Clean Up Bali Surfing’s 11-time and current world champion Kelly Slater is joining the effort to help clean up Bali by donating a surf board and offering to give his time and money to turn the tide of the seemingly careless disregard for the environment that has permeated the holiday island. Slater has been in spending the last few days in Bali surfing and visiting friends in between stops on the ASP World Tour, and was understandably aghast at seeing the large amounts of trash in the water and on the beaches of the previously pristine Bali. On April 23rd Slater sent out a series of “tweets” from his Twitter account describing his concern for Bali’s pollution problems that not only went out to his almost 200,000 followers it was also “re-tweeted” and has by now reached hundreds of thousands more in the surf industry and the international media, notably in Austraila, Bali’s largest tourist market. In an effort to focus more attention on the issue and create a stimulus to stir direct action, Slater has offered up one of his surfboards for bidding as a start, saying he will match the funds from the sale of the board as well as give of his time to motivate people into action to help stem the tide of this rampant pollution problem. Quiksilver Indonesia has taken Slater up on his offer and will be accepting bids on the http://bit.ly/JOWemQ surfboard on Ebay. “How ever I can get engaged to help out to at least educate and spread the word to help motivate the people who know how to do the right thing to start creating some change here, I’m happy to do that,” said Slater. “Giving a board is something simple but giving some time is something I’d feel really good about. The board is a start and if it’s going to raise some funds, I’ll match the funds with whatever the board raises... I’ll match that myself.” He went on to add, “I think this issue is much bigger than just the surf community, obviously there’s some infrastructure that needs to be put in place in Bali and this part of the world to do something with the waste rather than put it in the ocean. If you walk down the beach without shoes you need to pay attention, as there are needles, random trash, all sorts of debris and medical waste. Yeah it’s a problem for the people who travel here and love coming to this place, but it’s more of a problem for the people who live here, it’s a really important issue.” The funds collected from the sale of Slater’s surfboard and his monetary donation will be given to the ROLE Foundation, a local environmental non-profit organization who has taken the lead in undertaking coastal environmental projects attempting to slow down and ultimately reverse the destructive pollution that is ravaging Bali. Michael O’Leary

from the ROLE Foundation was extremely gratified when he heard the news, saying “We are over the moon and very thankful to Kelly for his kind donation, putting up a surfboard for auction and his offer to match the proceeds. These funds will be extremely useful to us in implementing our projects. We are so grateful for the Champs support and the awareness it brings, as Bali is in dire straights and it needs action Now!” He went on to add, “Bali’s ocean, beaches, waterways and reefs are under massively destructive pollution attacks from on estimated 5,000 tons of solid waste illegally dumped daily with little to no liquid waste management infrastructure. All this waste eventually finds its way into the waterways and down to the ocean that surrounds Bali, destroying her reefs and killing her marine life. Some companies like Coca-Cola Amatil Indonesia and Quiksilver have initiated helpful and effective CSR programs, but more businesses here need to follow their lead or all hope is lost, forever. It’s time to give back and help this once pristine island.” Quiksilver and Coca-Cola Amatil Indonesia joined forces back in 2008 in a concerted effort to tackle the disturbing issue of trash on Bali’s beaches, ever-increasing water pollution, and saving the endangered sea turtles. Since then they have expended in excess of $200,000 USD each year funding programs in the attempt to clean up the beaches and water supplies, as well as setting up the Kuta Beach Sea Turtle Conservation. In addition to these efforts, coming up on July 6th of this year Quiksilver and Coca-Cola Amatil Indonesia are hosting their 2nd annual Big Bali Eco Weekend on Kuta Beach. According to Quiksilver Marketing Executive for SEA Holly Monkman, “This will be our best opportunity to talk directly to Bali’s top local government officials including Governor of Bali - I Made Mangku Pastika, Minister of Tourism and the Creative Economy Indonesia - Mari Elka Pangestu and Minister of Environment Indonesia - Balthasar Kambuaya, as well as tourism and industry leaders. We’ll have Quiksilver surfing legends Mark Richards, Tom Carroll, and Martin Potter and others here to help share our concerns and to stir up a action in this fight for a clean Bali.” “Our goal this year is to raise enough funds to buy sand grids to add to the back of our three beach tractors and to continue to educate the local community and local businesses in how to care for and preserve the precious natural resources of this special island. We all need to work together for positive change,” she concluded. (May 1st 2012)

Famous Journalist Mark Deitch Dies Saving Child in Bali Mark Deitch, a renowned Russian journalist who worked with the “Svoboda” radio station, as well as with “Izvestia,” “Moskovsky Komsomolets” and “Literaturnaya Gazeta,” has died in Bali, when saving a drowning girl, Russian News Service radio station reports. Marks wife Ksenia Dietch was nearby when the incident occurred. “We were on a holiday in Bali with our children and friends. My husband took our friends daughter to swim in the ocean. Not far, just a dozen meters off the shore. There was a very strong current there and strong waves. The ocean was very unpredictable. They must have been knocked down by a wave and dragged into the open ocean. I rushed off to call for lifeguards. My husband managed to push the girl to the shore. She was saved. But when they pulled my husband out it was already too late,” Ksenia Deitch said. The funeral is planned for May 14. Mark Deitch was 67. (May 3rd 2012) Aussie Travel Warning Downgraded for Parts of Indonesia The Australian travel warning for parts of Indonesia is being downgraded to a Category 2 level for the first time since the Bali bombings. DFAT’s warning will remove the advice to “reconsider the need to travel” and will now emphasize the need to “exercise a high degree of caution” for Indonesian destinations including Bali. The “reconsider the need to travel” warning will remain in place for provinces of Central Sulawesi, Maluku, Papua and West Papua due to intercommunal and sectarian violence. The advice will continue to warn that a terrorist attack is possible at any time. Indonesia’s foreign minister has welcomed changes to the Government’s travel warning, with foreign minister Marty Natalegawa saying the downgrade is the result of sustained counter-terrorism work by Indonesian police. “Today’s decision by the Australian Government is welcome,” he said. Greg Barton, a member of the global terrorism research centre at Monash University, says the downgrade is a sensible move. “If the risk level does rise in the future they can always elevate it at least temporarily and that will be more effective,” he said. (May 4th 2012) Bond Denied in for American Man Accused or Murdering Balinese Woman Tyler A. Brown-Kelly wept as a representative of the Balinese woman he’s accused of killing addressed a judge during a bail hearing this morning. Brown-Kelly is charged with murder after officials say he stole a car at gunpoint late Friday (27/4) along Dorchester Road in North Charleston, North Carolina USA and drove off with Luh Endang Susiani, 31, inside. Her body was later found on an Interstate 26 ramp at Jedburg Road. An affidavit says she was shot in the head and back. It also says that a witness told the police that Brown-Kelly was heard saying he needed a ride Friday night. Three relatives of Brown-Kelly’s raised doubt that the 28-year-old would be involved with such a crime. They said that he did not have transportation of his own but that family members and friends would always give him a ride when he needed one. As a standard procedure, the judge denied bail and said Brown-Kelly was innocent until proven otherwise. (April 30th 2012). NSW Teenager Jack McCabe Drowned on Family Snorkeling Holiday to Bali A family holiday has ended in tragedy after a 16-year-old boy drowned while snorkeling near an Indonesian beach yesterday evening.

Two Russian Men Arrested at Ngurah Rai Airport with 1.6 Kg of Hashish Two Russian citizens Alexander Simonov (30) and Sergei Chernykh (42) were arrested in April whilst attempting to smuggle drugs into Bali by swallowing 1.6 kilograms of hashish between them. Simonov arrived at Ngurah Rai airport on Tuesday (24/4) after traveling from India via Kuala Lumpur to Denpasar using Malaysia Airlines flight MH 715. When Simonov was initially examined using X-ray and sniffer dogs, officers found no suspicious objects. However, during a full body search, a customs officer found a suspicious object in the gut. After 6 days in custody, customs officers collected 88 capsules that contained 915 grams of hashish. Two days later on April 26th, officers arrested Sergei Chernykh (42) who also came from India on the same flight number as Simonov. Chernykh had 359 capsules containing hashish in his stomach weighing 675 grams. The two suspects claimed that they did not know each other.

Conjoined Twins In Bali Stable Before Separation Conjoined twins from Bali whose bodies are fused from the chest to the belly will undergo a separation operation at Sanglah Hospital on the island in the near future. The twin girls — dubbed baby green and baby blue by doctors — were born by Caesarean section last Friday (27/4) to Ni Nyoman Sukarini, 37, and her husband, Ketut Suardana, 25, a farmer from Buleleng. After four days of examination, doctors at the hospital said the conjoined twins have two hearts, but their membranes are attached. The doctors remain uncertain on the state of other vital organs, including the number. The twins weighed 4.1 kilograms and were 39 centimeters long at birth, but blue baby had a bigger head because she suffered from hydrocephalus, also known as water on the brain. Suardana said he was shocked when his wife delivered the two babies, because the couple’s obstetrician never told them they were going to have twins. “My wife and I never had twins in our families,” he said. Before Sukarini gave birth, she had skin rashes that kept spreading. She went to Kertha Usada Hospital in Buleleng district late last week to have it checked at which point doctors told her there was a problem and that she had to give birth immediately, despite the due date not being until May 6. The surgery to separate the twins will be performed at Sanglah Hospital with assistance from doctors at Dr. Soetomo Hospital in Surabaya, because the Bali facility has not had any opportunities to conduct the rare operation.

1263 AIDS Known HIV/AIDS Cases in North Bali – Condom use still Minimal A total of 1263 residents in the North Bali Buleleng region tested positive for HIV / AIDS according to data collected by the National AIDS Commission (KPA) in April 2012. According to KPA spokesperson Made Arga Pynatih Buleleng of Singaraja, those who tested positive for HIV / AIDS were mostly commercial sex workers (CSWs). In addition to this, private sector employees, civil servants, housewives, and young children were also amongst those infected with HIV / AIDS. Although condom use continues to be encouraged to prevent transmission of HIV / AIDS, public awareness remains minimal and commercial sex workers (CSWs) often do not provide condoms to their customers. Pynatih said that the use of condoms was the only sure-fire way to avoid transmission of the virus that currently has no cure. Programs by NGO’s and government agencies would need to increase their awareness and testing facilities in villages throughout Bali he said. (May 5th 2012)

While making laws is the daily work of lawmakers, data from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) shows that lawmakers topped the list of people who allegedly broke the law and have been arrested as suspects for corruption so far in 2012. “There are six people [involved in corruption] from the House of Representatives and DPRD [Regional Representatives Council],” Johan Budi, spokesman of the KPK said on Tuesday (8/5). Among the lawmakers who are being investigated by KPK this year are Wa Ode Nurhayati, a graft suspect for the regional infrastructure development budget 2011, Democratic Party lawmaker Angelina Sondakh, a graft suspect for the construction of an athlete’s inn for the SEA Games, and Central Java Representative Council Speaker Murdoko, a graft suspect for the Kendal district budget 2003-2004. Coming in second on the list were individuals from private institutions, followed by government officials, including mayors, governors and high-rank state employees. During this four month period, the KPK recovered Rp 24.8 billion from corruptors who returned money or money that was confiscated from corruptors. “The amount of state losses that was saved and given to the state as non-tax revenue from corruption cases is Rp 24,891,091,799 ($2.7 million),” Johan said. (May 8th 2012) Indonesia’s Foreign Minister Rejects Organ Harvest Claim Authorities in Indonesia on Friday (27/4) dismissed claims of organ harvesting raised by activists and the families of three slain migrant workers who were gunned down in Malaysia last month. The incident prompted calls to reinstate Indonesia’s moratorium on sending migrant workers to Malaysia. Police in West Nusa Tenggara conducted autopsies on the bodies of Herman, 34, Abdul Kadir Jaelani, 24 and Mad Noon, 33, and concluded that they died from gunshot wounds — and that their organs were intact. “The National Police forensics team concluded that allegations organs were missing [from the victims] proved to be unfounded,” said Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa in a press conference in Jakarta. The three migrant workers were fatally shot by Malaysian Police when they resisted arrest while attempting to commit a robbery, according to Bambang Purwanto, an official with the National Agency for the Placement and Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (BNP2TKI). The three were seen wearing masks, gloves and brandishing machetes when they were stopped by police, said Bambang, who just returned from Malaysia to investigate the case. Suspicions about organ harvesting were raised when family members examined the bodies and found the victims stitched up around their chests and stomachs. Police medical chief Brig. Gen. Musaddeq Ishaq said the stitches came from the initial autopsies conducted in Malaysia. The men’s families demanded copies of the autopsy reports from both countries, and remain suspicious. The National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) challenged the police explanation, and vowed to conduct its own investigation. (April 24th 2012).

Tenganan: The First Balinese For two hours we had traveled through southeast Bali to reach the huge relatively untouristed Karangasem Regency. With mighty Gunung Agung dominating the landscape, this easternmost district of Bali offers some of the island’s most spectacular scenery. Our destination was one of Bali’s oldest extant villages situated at the end of a country road leading up a narrow valley. As we pulled into the empty parking lot on this sultry afternoon, the stall owners looked up expectantly. Karangasem is Bali’s most traditional district, its hospitable people, rustic villages and unique festivals far removed from the frenzy of development taking place in other parts of the island. It is the only area where a number of archaic dance and musical forms are still regularly performed and where the High Balinese language is still in everyday use. No place typifies these ongoing age-old practices than the original pre-Hindu Balinese settlement of Tenganan located halfway between Padangbai and Amlapura, just a few kilometers from the seaside resort of Candidasa. Even through the big tour buses had already left for the tourist resorts of the south, the village at first appeared to be a stagemanaged tourist site. But as we walked through the unusually narrow gate, we found a living, breathing community of farmers, artists and craftspeople. Though Tenganan’s inhabitants have completely adapted to the tourist economy, the walled village environs are a relaxing place to place to just saunter undisturbed. Long a stronghold of native traditions, the quiet pace and somnolent air are all the more accentuated by the lack of vehicular traffic, except for the occasional motorcycle sputtering up the “main” street. But don’t be deceived by the villagers’ basic living conditions. The community owns large tracts of rice fields, which are leased to the farmers of nearby villages. With the price of land and rice at an all-time high, Tenganan villagers are among the wealthiest on Bali. The Bali Aga Tenganan is quite unlike the Javano-Balinese regions of Bali for a reason. Like Trunyan on Lake Batur to the northwest, this small village is inhabited by the Bali Aga. Comprising about 2% of the Bali’s population, these aboriginal Balinese settled the island long before the influx of immigrants from the decaying Majapahit Empire started arriving in the 14th century. The lowland people of Tenganan have preserved their culture and way of life through the conviction that they are descended from gods. They practice a religion based on tenets dating from the Kingdom of Bedulu, established before the Bali Hindu religion took root. Except for such visual blights as a row of green power poles marching down the center of the village’s unique avenues of paving stones, Tenganan is a living museum in which people live and work frozen in a 17th-century environment, practicing their own architecture, kinship system, religious sect, dance and music. A council of married people decides the legal, economic, and ritual affairs of the village. The adat customary law prohibits divorce or polygamy, and until recently only those who married within the village were allowed to remain within its walls; others were banished to a section east of the village called Banjar Pande.

By the 1980s, this custom resulted in Tenganan achieving less than zero population growth, attributed to inbreeding. Mandates from the gods were then reinterpreted, allowing villagers who marry outside the clan to stay, provided the spouse undergoes a mock cremation ritual from which he or she is brought back as a Tenganan. The 600 families living in the various kampong still follow unusual customs. During the month-long Usaba Sambah

Festival in May or June, men whip each other with sticks wrapped in thorny pandanus leaves and unmarried village girls are ceremonially twirled around in a small, foot-powered wooden Ferris wheel which is turned for hours on end. Although the Bali Aga are considered exceptionally conservative and resistant to change, the 20th century intrudes in the form of TV antennas on bamboo poles piercing the thatch rooftops, motorcycles parked outside the compounds, and modern technology inside the houses. One can hear the occasional tinny sound of a smartphone or radio. The most striking feature of this 700-year-old village is its layout and unique Austronesian-style longhouses, totally different from the vast majority of other communities on Bali. Rectangular in shape (500 m X 250 m), Tenganan shares many characteristics with other primitive villages on Nias and Sumba. A broad street of natural paving stones, which serves as the village common, rises very gradually in tiers so the rain flows down, providing drainage. Each level is connected by steep cobbled ramps. There are also three streets running east to west. The only entrance to this fortress-like village is through four tall gates placed at each of the cardinal points. The Flaming Cloth Before we entered the village, we checked out a couple of the souvenir shops outside Tenganan’s main southern entrance which carried both local and Gianyar crafts, as well as ata basketry, kain selendang, gringsing cloths and very fine woven ikat textiles from the eastern islands. We found that the best buys are bronze pieces, handsome tasseled shawls, offering trays (dulong), woven reed and wickerwork, attractive betelnut containers, and distinctive Tenganan-style gongs, rebab stringed fiddles and rindik bamboo zylophone sets. Ve n d o r s h a v e a good eye for quality, ask reasonable prices and don’t hassle you to buy. That said, watch for overpriced imitation Sumba/Flores ikat blankets and Balinese carvings, which may be bought far cheaper in Denpasar’s Pasar Badung or in the villages of origin. You’ll get a better price for crafts in the off - season (February to May), and in the morning before the tour buses start arriving and prices skyrocket. Tenganan is the only place in Indonesia where double-ikat textiles are made from natural fibers and dyes. Rather loosely woven, these so-called “flaming cloths” (kamben gringsing) are used only in rites of passage and for ceremonial purposes: weddings, tooth filings, covering the dead or during a child’s first haircut. It’s thought the sarong-length cloths can immunize the wearer against illness; small pieces for wrapping around the wrist are sold for this purpose. Only half a dozen families still know the whole doubleikat process (coloring, tying, dyeing, etc.), weaving gringsing on small makeshift breast looms. Within the cloth, reddish or dark brown backgrounds, once dyed in human blood, are used to highlight intricate whitish and yellow designs of wayang puppet figures, rosettes, lines, and checks. The red and reddish-brown tones are derived from sunti root, yellow from kemiri fruit and blue and blue-black from taum (indigo). Great care is taken to ensure that even tension is applied throughout so the patterns will match exactly. It can take 3-5 years to complete an exceptionally fine gringsing piece, which are generally sold only upon the death of the owner. In the shops around Tenganan’s parking area, smallish gringsing go for Rp350,000 to Rp400,000, but really precious gringsing, prized by serious textile collectors for their rarity, can run US$3500-US$5000. Balinese Papyrus: Lontar Books I stopped at several of the tables that are set up at intervals the

whole length of the main street where about 20 lontar artists sat making and selling palm leaf books under mango, durian and mahogany trees. Lontar are palm leaves on which intricate drawings have been etched, usually depicting scenes from Hindu epics and Balinese history. On holy days (or upon request) the artists will read passages from their books. The process of preparing the leaf for writing is long and involved. The leaves are first soaked in water for days to remove the chlorophyll. The leaves are then boiled in a herbal concoction to add durability and flexibility. To keep the leaves from wrinkling, they are brushed and pressed for several weeks to make the surface as flat as possible, cut into 35-40 cm X 4 cm strips, then finally the edges colored with kincu dye to prohibit insects. A 5-page lontar book can take a month to create and cost up to Rp200,000, depending on the amount of detail. All the artists will make palm leaf books or whole drawings (which can be framed) to your specifications. Lontar of lesser quality made by students are also available, while antique works can fetch up to Rp500,000. A lontar book’s antiquity is difficult to verify unless you were to consult with an expert at the Kirtya Institute in Buleleng or the Bali Museum after your purchase. Ngh Dharmasya (hp 081-916-537-373), whose stand is about halfway down the length of the village, learned to inscribe lontar leaves 6 years ago by just observing other artists and by persistently copying and practicing. Simple ones take just one day and cost only Rp50,000, but the more intricate Ganesha and Ramayana scenes as well as Balinese Calendars take a week and cost Rp160,000. I Wayang Tumben (hp 081-936-056-751), closer to the entrance/ exit, also inscribes palm-leaf books with miniature Ramayana scenes and stories, but his specialty is architectural drawing. An Englishman taught him the concept of the vanishing point and perspective. Half-teasing, half serious, I asked him if he could draw a line thinner than a .001 mechanical drawing pen. After scoring it, the line was so tiny that I couldn’t even see it until he rubbed kenari wood charcoal into the etched lines, then the writing appeared. Impressed, I asked Pak Wayan for his business card. He then meticulously, deftly and speedily incised his name, address and telephone number on a small section of a palm leaf. Practicalities Tenganan is 3.2 km off the main road between Klungkung and Amlapura, just before (west) Candidasa, and 17 km southwest of Amlapura. Bemos run from Klungkung or Padangbai to the Tenganan turnoff, then mount the back of a motorcycle taxi. Or stay in Candidasa, then early in the morning walk on the wide shady sidewalk from the main road intersection up to Tenganan. Or hitch a minibus, oplet or anything that’s going along the way. Another option is to rent a bicycle in Candidasa for the pleasant uphill ride. The road ends at the southern entrance gate to Tenganan. Parking is Rp2000. During July and August, both of Tenganan’s parking lots overflow so visitors must park along the road. Requested donation is Rp20,000 for foreigners, Rp10,000 for domestic tourists. Food stalls, inside and out, sell cold drinks and snacks.

The Revival of Traditional Weaving Techniques in Bali and Lombok Part I

Nearly every traditional Balinese ritual involves sacred textiles called kain bebali which purify sacred spaces and offer protection from illness and malevolent spirits to the wearer. Unlike regular cloth used for everyday wear, kain bebali are hand-woven textiles used exclusively for ceremonial functions and rites of passage. They are unique to Bali and almost exclusively produced on the island. They represent a spiritual philosophy and are thought to contain magic powers. Materials (cotton or silk), color, motif and design determine its use. Some traditional kain bebali contain iconography that illustrates the religious function for which the textiles are to be used. Specific textiles are used as ceremonial dress, for processional rites and temple adornments; to drape the gods, to wrap trees, shrines or places of worship, as votive offerings and ritual paraphernalia, depending on the occasion. Each specific ritual requires its own kain bebali, some of which cannot be used for other ceremonies. For instance, when a baby is born it is placed on a kain bebali atu-atu (meaning strength) in order for the umbilical cord to be cut. The first ritual haircut of a child at 210 days old requires a striped wangsul or gedogan cloth on which the cut locks are placed. A tooth filing ceremony requires a kain sekordi and kain selulut to be draped over the body while the teeth are filed. Each cloth has a name with a particular significance. Kain sekordi takes its name from the words suka (happy) and werdi (long life). Kain selulut has the root sih (from asih) meaning love or affection and lulut meaning harmony. Even ceremonies performed for the low spirits and demons and for animal sacrifices have their own specific kain bebali. Typically these ceremonies are for spiritually “unclean” purposes; therefore these cloths are not re-used for other rituals. Bebali textiles have a l o n g h i s t o r y. T h e i r production, uses and rites are described in old lontar (palm leaf) manuscripts. Many strict rules and taboos surround the production of these sacred cloths. Tr a d i t i o n a l l y o n l y menopausal women could weave the sacred kain bebali as they are considered to be “clean” and spiritually stable. And only natural, homespun fibers like cotton or silk can be used with colorings derived from natural ingredients like roots, bark, leaves and flowers. Sadly, because the production of kain bebali is extremely complex, work-intensive, time consuming, and economically not advantageous to the weaver, its production was nearly abandoned by the early part of this century and the art of weaving kain bebali textiles was in danger of being lost. In addition, the existing kain bebali textiles had become exceedingly rare because avid collectors and museum curators, who appreciated the significance and the values of these old heirloom textiles, had been diligently scouring the island and buying up the precious textiles. However, in the last decade, realizing the dangers of losing this important Balinese heritage, a few dedicated individuals and organizations have sought to revive this ancient art and have successfully rekindled interest in the preservation, production and increased use of the traditional textiles. To help the modern day reader appreciate the intricacies of kain bebali and its many uses, a very readable and enlightening book has been written by Dra. Ida Ayu Ngurah Puniari titled Kain Bebali Sacred Cloth: Meaning and Usage in Balinese Hindu rituals. Ibu Puniari is a member of a Brahman family in Sidemen with deep knowledge and experience of the meaning and uses of kain bebali in Balinese Hindu religious ceremonies. She has extensively researched old Balinese weaving and textile traditions in religious ceremonies, the use of natural dyes and the techniques used to produce the continuous warp textiles woven by the Bali Aga in Tenganan. She is recognized as an authority on all aspects of the bebali textile tradition and is very active in the preservation work of ancient textiles. Ibu Puniari’s mission is to revitalize the traditional art of weaving sacred textiles. Thanks to her work and that of other organizations like Ubud-based Threads of Life, old weaving techniques, the spinning of natural fibers, the use of natural dyes and the revival of old patterns and designs have been resurrected. Weaving techniques - All Bali woven textiles, whether the sacred kain bebali or cloth for everyday use, are referred to as ikat (to tie or bind). This is a weaving technique whereby the design is

produced by carefully dyeing portions of the warp and weft threads. First the weaver ties strands of palm leaf or plastic raffia around small bundles of threads. Then the threads are placed in the dye solution. When the threads are dyed, the bindings resist the color, and the sections of thread they enclose remain uncolored. To create a fabric of different colors, the ties are removed after the first dye and the warp is retied and dyed with a second color. This process can be repeated to create different layers of color. It is a laborious, complex and intricate process that produces beautiful and often intricate designs: stylized plants and animals, motifs declaring clan and status, pictures and symbols that illustrate ancient myths and recent events. Traditional Balinese woven textiles can roughly be divided in 5 main categories. They all have the same width, typically 52 cm, which corresponds to the width of a weaver’s body as they are mostly made on back strap looms. Songket – is the most often produced textile and the name of the technique traditionally woven in Karangasem, Klungkung, Sidemen, Singaraja, and Negara. The patterns are a bit different between these areas. Songket is technically a supplementary weft pattern: a base weave in one single color to which additional colors are added to form the design, including silver and gold threads. Some techniques include extra warps or wefts. A songket weaver adds supplementary wefts as she weaves, picking out patterns that seem to float above the cloth. Songket is traditionally worn for ceremonies by both men and women. For men, it is a favorite choice for saput, the hip cloth worn over a normal sarong and for women it is used as a breast or upper torso wrap which leaves the shoulders bare. Both men and women wear ceremonial dress of full-body songket wraps for some of life’s most important moments like weddings and tooth filings. Songket used to be reserved for Brahmans and royalty but ancient rules have relaxed and they are now within reach of the common people. Songket is also worn by performers and dancers and is then woven with additional gold and silver threads.

gerinsing to be produced. Cepuk is a weft ikat of 4 colors that is primarily woven on Nusa Penida on semi mechanical looms. Unlike the smaller back strap looms used on the mainland, these looms are powered by foot operated pedals. Kain cepuk is used to protect dancers during sacred performances and trance rituals. At one time it was also produced in Singaraja but that tradition has now died out. Nusa Penida also produces a very jaunty, modern style wrap cloth called rang-rang which looks like an argyle pattern with distinctive holes on the corners of the diamond pattern which are created by using several weft yarns, passing them through only one section of the warps before turning them back again. This technique leaves small gaps in the fabric where the different wefts turn away from each other. The technique is called slit-tapestry in English. Poleng is the very famous, ubiquitous black and white checkered cloth that is a favorite of Balinese pecalang , is wrapped around roadside shrines, holy trees and temples and other revered objects. The poleng has become ingrained in Balinese culture and is u s e d e x t e n s i v e l y. Though it still exists in hand-woven format with natural dyes, most poleng cloth is readily available, cheap and machine made all over Bali. The hand-woven and naturally dyed poleng used for sacred rites is fabricated in Seraya, in north- east Bali. Kain bebali can either be woven in weft ikat like endek or woven with a supplementary weft of gold or silver thread like songket. Kain bebali is often woven as a continuous warp, producing a circular cloth without start or finish. This cloth, called wangsul (going around) or gedogan (circle) is associated with purity of mind, restraint and the ability to exercise self-control. Generally, wangsul or gedogan are asymmetrical and often have a geometric motif that repeats on either side of a middle line, thus reflecting the Balinese principle of dualism. Decorative motifs can include geometric patterns (lines, squares, diamonds, etc), plant patterns or flowers, animal designs, wayang shadow puppets, demonguardians, etc. Motifs can also be freely created by the weaver to enhance the esthetic beauty of the finished cloth. In the next part, we will cover the efforts involved in reviving old traditional weaving techniques including home-spun fiber, the use of natural dyes and the economics of sustaining old traditions. We will also take a look at the indigenous Sasak weaving practices on Lombok. Story by Ines Wynn

Endek is a weft ikat that is the most common textile in Bali. The design is applied to the weft threads only and dyed to create patterns and images. Endek is less popular amongst tourists but is essential to the Balinese. Silk is also used in the production of this textile, as are cotton or synthetics. Gerinsing or double ikat is the least common Balinese weaving but it is one of the most sought-after. Bali is the only island in the Indonesian archipelago that uses this weaving technique and it is exclusively woven by the Bali Aga in Tenganan, a village located in eastern Bali. Double ikat is so named because the design is applied to both the warp and the weft threads. It is a sacred cloth exclusively used for lifecycle ceremonies such as puberty rites, tooth filing, weddings, etc. The cloth is typically woven as a breast wrap and has characteristically muted colors and an intricate design. The Bali Aga use a particular color palette which has been handed down by tradition and they do not vary either the colors or the designs. This rare technique involves dyeing both sets of thread, the warp and weft, prior to being woven together. The gerinsing technique is so highly guarded that it is thought that fewer than 15 women know how to weave in this way. It is not uncommon for it to take up to three years for one piece of

Weft = the shorter horizontal threads that cross the warp. A continuous warp produces a circular cloth. Ikat is the technique of tying and dying a number of vertical threads on the loom to create a pattern. After dying the pattern is adjusted by undoing some ties and creating others, then running the cloth through another dye bath. Double ikat has the threads dyed on both the warp and the weft. Back strap loom holds the lengthwise warp threads, under tension, while the weaver passes a crosswise weft thread between them. The weaver has a strap or a wooden yoke looped behind her back, and leans forward and back to control the tension of her loom.

Nom de plume MY RIGHT FOOT

Mohammad Asroel has a remarkable right foot. It is not remarkable because his right foot and leg is the only fully formed limb on his body, or because he uses this appendage to dexterously hop across busy streets and rough yards on a single rubber sandel. It is not remarkable but it is notable that he can maneuver uneven Balinese entrance steps with the grace of a feline, smoke filter- less cigarettes, eat nasi campur and SMS on his Nokia, all with the nimble toes on his right foot. What is very remarkable is that Asroel paints masterpieces with his right foot. I have watched him do this with my own astonished eyes. True, they are copies of masterpieces. But masterpieces by Rembrandt, Archimbaldo, Van Eyck, Petrus Cristus and Frieda Kahlo are not to be taken lightly even by talented painters with two hands at their disposal. Asroel has painted copies of other famous historical paintings but these are the artists I have commissioned him to paint from photographic reproductions in art books. Other clients have gratefully walked off, grinning from ear to ear with copies of their favorite painting tucked under their arms. Mohammed Asroel is a master copyist, not a forgoer in any sense. No deception is involved. He signs each painting with a left foot big toe imprint. Copies have enhanced our awareness and appreciation of original art works since the invention of photography. Try and imagine an art history class without projected reproductions lighting up students’ minds. It is also true that reproductions have helped to both rarify and denigrate the original masterpiece. Museum shops sell reproductions of famous paintings and sculptures in many forms, from post cards and posters to silk scarves and umbrella designs, not to mention high priced knick -knacks for the home or office. Trading on the fame and reputation of certain historical images has been an acceptable practice since Mona Lisa found herself smiling ironically from the front of a tee shirt. Postmodernism scoffs at the validity of originality altogether as a viable construct for our dis-enchanted era. To call Asroel handicapped or disabled is to not see what is before one’s own eyes because an idea of what that word means stands in your way. Not only the word, but also an emotion, be it compassion, pity, dread, discomfort or even admiration, get in the way and become impairments to understanding the remarkable power, ingenuity and faith can play in any human life. I have committed this error. A few months after I first met Asroel, I felt compelled to find an institution that would provide him with a pair of prosthetic arms and a prosthetic left leg and foot. I searched the Internet. I discussed various fund raising projects with friends involved with yayasan projects. When I finally approached Asroel with my ideas and suggestions I was politely told that he did not want any prosthesis. He liked himself as he was and had no desire to change himself. In that moment I grasped my blindness, my conventional assumptions of what constituted helping. Suddenly, I realized that all Asroel wanted was what any other artist would want from any client, and that was to just buy his paintings so that he could make a living for himself and his family. He did not require extraordinary help. It was at this point that an invisible screen fell away and we were free to meet each other as curious individuals who had art in common. As a professional photographer and teacher I have had a long- standing interest in the process of art making. I think it is the best thing human beings do. So with the help of Gede, our mutual friend who kindly translated between Indonesian and English, I got to interview Asroel about his life, his painting and his aspirations for the future. We sat in his stark cement studio where a bright yellow curtain tinted the late afternoon incoming rays, a translucent gold. As we talked, I watched the gray walls, the piled up canvases, the sticky painting pallet and the right- footed painter, gradually merge into a beautifully composed image constructed entirely of light. How long have you been painting? Since 1998 How old were you when you started painting? Seventeen. What pulled you to painting?

Occasional Articles From Our Readers By Uma Anyar

Oh, I just liked pictures. Who taught you to paint? In the beginning I taught myself but later when I lived in Yogyakarta some friends who were painters helped me, showed me some techniques and helped me get books to copy. What was the subject of your first painting? Islamic calligraphy for our mosque. It was good and people liked it and I was able to sell my work. I was under the impression that representation is frowned upon by Muslims Is this true? I think art happens because of the deep humanity inside people, but also because of God too. Religion is in the heart it is not just a set of rules. I feel strong in my religion but and I think religion and art are very close. When I want to pray, I paint. I notice that you can paint in a variety of styles. What is your preferred style for your own art works? I have tried many processes and styles. I like Surrealism the best because I myself am surreal! I try to practice positive thinking and positive actions. Which painters do you admire? Oh many. Salvador Dali, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Peter Paul Ruben, Vermeer and of course, Magritte. He is my favorite surrealist painter. Do you like anyone alive and currently working? Yes, Hendra Buana from Padang in Sumatra. Do you think you would be a painter if you had been born with hands and arms? Yes, of course. My painting, my talent and my need to paint are much deeper than my disability. It is more than my body. It is about my feeling, not about my body. The last time we talked you told me that your birth defects may be the result of your mother working on a chemically sprayed coffee field while she was pregnant with you, can you expand on that. My mother worked on a coffee plantation in Java. The fields were heavily sprayed with some kind of chemical fertilizer. We think this affected her pregnancy. I remember my mother was always very tired when I was a child. There are four children in my family but I am the only one who was born as I was. I was the fourth child. My sister was number two. What was your childhood like? I was treated equally, the same as the other children. My father would say, “Asroel you are a boy, come with me to the garden to work.” I helped as I could. My father did not pity me or treat me differently then my sister or brother. My mother loved me a lot and supported me. She always told me that I would be all right. I would have a good life. Where were you born? I was born in Gondang, Java in 1979 but I left my village because there was no work and went to Yogyakarta. In the beginning I made jewelry, earrings, belts, necklaces and sold them on the street. My friends and I sold the jewelry to tourists. One time, an American man bought over a hundred pieces and then sold them in America. How old were you when you left home? Eighteen. Who did you go with? No one. I went alone. I have been to Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Jakarta alone. How were you able to do this? I made jewelry and sold it on the street. In 2003 I came to Bali because I wanted to just paint. I wanted to make my living painting if possible. I lived in Jimbaran at first but then friends told me to go to Ubud because I was a painter. Many friends helped me get established. Senang Hati foundation is like my family. Sometimes I exhibit with them in group shows. When did you start making replicas of other paintings? Three years ago. A tamu lady brought me a book of paintings of the king of Klungkung pictures. I made small copies for sale, post cards, and tourist pictures. At that time I would do anything and everything to make money, now I just paint. I like that. What do you hope for in the next ten years? Of course, I want success with my paintings. I hope they will inspire others to live better. I want to be able to make enough for my family and I to live. This is my life process, everybody has a life path, painting is mine. I hope my paintings will inspire my son, I want him to know my life process. Do you mean you want your son to be strong in life spirit? I know that the art life it is not an easy way. It is a difficult path. I want my son to have his own process I will not choose his life for him. I want him to find something he is passionate about in his life. Many people do not have this. I am a lucky man. I focus on my abilities, not my disabilities. I thank God for my life as it is. At this point a three year-old boy appeared in the doorway of Asroel’s studio. The painter’s face lit up with joy. I put away the tape recorder. The interview was over but the friendship was just beginning.

SCHEDULE THAT Bali Emerging Writers Festival (25 – 27 May) The second Bali Emerging Writers Festival (BEWF) returns to Serambi Arts a centre which often holds dynamic, community events. The Bali Emerging Writers Festival attracts Indonesia’s young and dynamic writers, featuring new and traditional forms of writing from blogging and poetry, to spoken word, hip hop, journalism and conventional prose. This year’s line-up includes Roby Navicula, rock star cum eco-warrior and farmer; Pande Putu Setiawan, author and founder of Anak Alam - a foundation working to bring education to underprivileged children in remote villages; award-winning documentary filmmaker Dwitra J Ariana; video-art creator Ridwan Rudianto; graphic designer and internet literacy activist Saylow Alrite and photo-journalist Anggara Mahendra. Established authors coming include Saut Poltak Tambunan, award-winning poet Acep Zamzam Noor and Bali’s own Cok Sawitri. Several local bands will provide three nights of music while two local literary communities, Denpasar’s Sahaja and Singaraja’s Mahima, will perform theatrical pieces and a musical interpretation of poetry. The BEWF program aims to bridge the gap between established and emerging writers by providing an essential forum to enable young people to enter the global literary arena with established writers who can provide important advice from years in the industry. Let’s hope that Indonesia recognizes some new and talented writers through events like this, writers who become recognised and published as many stories throughout this archepelago are waiting and need to be told.

Kids and Teens Summer Acting Camps (July and August) Many Bali residents who do not leave the island for the summer holidays often complain that there is nothing for their children to do, particularly teenagers. Bali School of Dramatic Art (Bali SoDA) has solved this problem and has organised summer camps focusing on acting for kids and young adults aged from 9 to 16 at various locations in Bali. Bali SoDA are putting on three, two week camps this year in Canggu, Sanur and Ubud, offering kids and teens the opportunity to work with prestigious NIDA and the Victorian College of the Arts which are considered the ‘Harvard’ of performing art school in Australia and whose prestigious alumni include Hugh Jackman & Nicole Kidman. For those interested in the Junior camp, this actors/theatre workshop will be an invaluable experience for any child that loves performing and wants to gain essential insights into the creative process. The Teen Camp will prove an invaluable experience for those that are interested in acting especially as acting coach, Ella Watson-Russell from VCA has designed a special programme that will incorporate all the essentials for creating believable performances. Samantha Young from NIDA who is leading the Sanur and Ubud camps is an actor and director and she brings with her all her experiences in perform-

ing and film making. Kids get to work with consummate professionals from the world of entertainment. Booking is essential as there are only 12 places available for each camp. The camps take place over a two week period. Call to find out more about locations and dates. Cost : USD450 (early bird) USD475 Where : Jl Br Kuwum II, No 25E, Kerobokan (Bali SoDA) Contact : 0878 61511202 www.balisoda.com

Pio Cesare Wines and Fine Food (17 and 19 May) Hosted by the Four Seasons Resorts in Jimbaran and Sayan, this evening offers the best of fine food and wine. The occasion in Jimbaran starts with a sunset cocktail reception accompanied with music of the Rindik players on the resort’s poolside deck. Italian Chef Samuele Baudoino will present a scrumptious five course dinner including smoked duck breast, poached lobster and roasted loin of lamb complimented by Pio Cesare wines from the Piedmont region of Italy. The second evening, in the hills, begins with cocktails and canapés at the Lily Pond, followed by dinner at the picturesque Ayung Terrace restaurant. The dinner includes steamed minced duck wrapped in banana leaves, crab soup and grilled lamb chops specially prepared by Chef Danny Frederick. The Pio Cesare wines are again paired with the courses. A Keroncong orchestra will serenade the evening. These wine evenings are always worthwhile particularly if you have a special occasion to celebrate and these two resorts are certainly worth a visit to.

The Tragedy of Macbeth (24, 26 and 27 May) I always look forward to Rehane Abraham’s productions and fans of theatre will enjoy Theatre Firefly and the Green School’s fast paced, modern adaptation of this classic Shakespeare play, Macbeth. This presentation features demonically possessed witches and an Amazon Macbeth who fights to the death for the fate of the human soul. I saw a Midsummer Night’s dream in Ubud, a presentation by Theatre Firefly and if that is anything to go by, this is theatre that is not to be missed. It’s a great location and an opportunity to see some of Bali’s finest acting talents. Cost : IDR100,000 When : matinees 11 am (24 and 27 May) 7 pm (26 and 27 May) Where : Mepantingan, The Green School, Jl Raya Sibang Kaja, Br Saren, Abiansemal Contact : Rehane 08113864611 rehanefirefly@gmail.com

Sanur Film Nights (Fridays) Film nights are always appealing as the choice of film is often a film you may not choose to watch, usually a classic film, one that has been long forgotten. These film nights are held every second Friday of the month. On Friday 1 June the film title is ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, a 1962 film adaptation of Harper Lee’s 1960 novel of the same title. Without giving too much away, the plot centers around a lawyer who defends against an undeserved charge of rape. The film ranks number 25 on the American Film Institutes 10th Anniversary list of greatest American movies of all times so it may be worth going to see it. On 15 June the film is Buddha’s Lost Children which was the winner of the best spiritual film and best spiritual documentary at the European Film Festival, Paris in March 2009. Buddha’s Lost Children is a about a Thai Buddhist monk who - armed only with his faith and master boxer skills - wages an inspirational battle to help orphaned children, fight drug abuse, and preserve a vanishing way of life. Both films are worth watching and it is a great opportunity to watch these with other like minded people. Cost : free Where : The Power of Now, Oasis, Mercure Sanur Resort, Jl.

Sunset Session with Opolopo (20 May) and Rebulika Latina (26 May) The Woobar is in a truly spectacular location and it is a great place to chill out with friendly, welcoming staff and beautiful ocean views. This stylish bar has a host of events lined up and the next sunset session features Opolopo with Amalia. The deal is - buy one get one on coconut martinis and fuschia belinis, which sounds exotic but I’m not quite sure what the mix is. These go from 4 pm to 6 pm. This resort is definitely futuristic and stylish and definitely worth a visit just to enjoy the relaxed ambience in this amazing resort.

Article

Poetry in Bali = Poetry in Motion Poetry what’s in thy name? According to Balinese poet Tan Lioe Ie poetry is the pinnacle of the art of language. It is a democratic room where the reader can enter with their own interpretation. A poem must be transparent and not so obtuse that the reader is at a loss for its meaning. Metaphors and symbols are very necessary and the absence of or a badly expressed metaphor makes the poem empty and just a jumble of beautiful, ephemeral words. That Bali is an inspiring place for artists, writers and poets is beyond the pale. There are many talented local and expat poets who find the natural and spiritual environment of Bali to be a very conducive avenue to their inspirational outpourings. Since the 1990’s Bali has enjoyed a vibrant and blooming local poetry culture. Many Bali poets won prestigious awards and participated in major festivals in Indonesia and abroad. Most poetry is written in Bahasa Indonesia and often translated into English and other languages. Very few Balinese poets write in Bahasa Bali. In talking with various published and award winning Balinese poets and asking what influenced their early poetry or served as inspiration, the same names seem to crop up repeatedly: Indonesian poets Chairil Anwar, Gunawan Mohamad, Frans Nadjira, Umbu Landu Paranggi and foreign poets Octavio Paz and Arthur Rimbaud.

Bali poet Tan Lioe Ie is a striking personality with a proud bearing and a flowing white mane who uses the medium of Puisi Musik (PM) to recite poetry set to music. His performance is dramatic because he fuses the elements of Balinese traditional oral recitation and Chinese opera. Tan uses PM to attract a wider audience and appeal to young people. He was the first in Bali to set poems to music in 1991 and performed solo with an acoustic guitar. Later when his fan base and his reputation grew, he formed a band and now performs regularly at poetry reading events and music venues in Bali and Java, Australia and Europe. Tan started writing poetry in 1989 at the more mature age of 31. He became inspired by the poetry of Gunawan Mohamad and Umbu Landu Paranggi, legendary poet from the Indonesian Beat generation and currently editor of the Bali Post culture and literary sections. He first set Umbul’s poetry to music and soon created his first album of puisi-musik. This new style of presenting poetry appealed to a wide audience and his reputation grew exponentially. To Tan, poetry and music are not competing elements but equal and not subordinate to each other. He considers himself a poet who sings his poetry. He was inspired by Bob Dylan, the lyricism of Jim Morrison and Dylan Thomas whose poetry is often set to music. He says poetry asks for its own brand of music. PM is actually an old tradition. In Java, old lontar manuscripts were chanted, not just recited by professional singers called guru lagu. The Mahabharata was another fecund source for poetry chanting. Blues is the favorite background music for Tan’s poetry because Blues music contains an element of internalized anger that finds expression in the music and lyrics. He finds the Indonesian brand of Blues to be particularly explosive. The main thing in art is authenticity, says Tan. However, technique and message must match up. Even though free style verse has liberated the poet from the corset of old fashioned, structured techniques like the iambic pentameter, dactylic hexameter, quatrains, etc., technique is still important and cannot be disconnected from the meaning of the poem. A well crafted poem, like a two-edged sword, will bore into the soul of the poet and the reader alike. Ketut Yuliarsa is the affable owner of the niche Ganesha Bookshops in Ubud, Sanur and Kerobokan. He is a multi-talented poet, writer, actor and musician whose work has been published in books, anthologies and in local and national newspapers, including two bilingual anthologies of his own poems, Suara Malam/Night Voice and Jatuh Bisu/Falling in Silence. Like poet-

musician Tan Lioe Ie, he has set some of his poems to music by creating librettos for several musical performances in Australia and New Zealand. His natural inclination is free verse poetry, in haiku and iambic styles. He prefers poetry to prose because it allows condensation of big feelings, ideas and imagery in a few well chosen words or phrases. He creates poetry because he wants to be heard and read. He has written poetry all his life but within the last 10 years his poetry has become more internal and more personal. Ketut could be called a realist poet. His verses speak of the dichotomy between the Balinese traditions and the modern world that is becoming stridently visible. According to Ketut it is futile to stop the waves of change setting up in Bali. You cannot escape it. Learn to live with it. It is a recurring theme among many Balinese poets that Balinese traditions have sometimes a hard time coping with the environment of the modern world. As a realist, he also knows that it is hard to publish poetry in Bali to an appreciative audience. The market is too small and for publishers there is not enough money in it. According to Ketut, reading is not a cultural trait because traditionally Indonesians are steeped in their oral traditions through performances like wayang kulit, dance and drama instead of the written word like in the west. In addition, reading is an individualistic pastime which is anathema to the traditional collective mindset. As evident in Bali, Individual happiness is subordinate to collective happiness and the pursuit of individual gratification is frowned upon. This sense of collectivism is prevalent and encouraged through the banjar and village community. It is a trait that is bred in the bone. Cok Sawitri hails from Sidemen in Karangasem and is one of the more outspoken and activist poets in Bali. Her poetry reflects her feelings about the inequities and inequalities of political and social circumstances, economics and the state of society and the nation. Though respectful of Balinese traditions, she is not afraid to take a swipe at social norms and political situations that disadvantage or repress women and minorities. Her work runs the gamut of prose, poetry, short stories, the serial novel, theatre, essays and cultural reviews. Her poetry has appeared in every major Bali poetry anthology; her short stories are published in Kompass and Bali Post; she has authored 3 novels; she conducts creative arts workshops and is a trainer and consultant on traditional art performances to artistic, social and humanitarian groups. Considered as one of the best poetry readers in Bali who is credited with drastically changing the way poetry is read, she is also an active performer in drama and dance productions. Cok says that poetry is important in her life. She loves to read poetry that calms the heart and writes poems that express her anger and discontent. But a lot of her poems also communicate love, honesty and talk of heartbreak and pain. The purpose of writing poetry, according to Cok, is to comfort the hearts and minds of her readers. Her style is what she calls poetic logic with an easy diction and simple symbology, choosing everyday words to put her poet’s feelings on the block so her readers can look into her heart and connect with the emotions and passions. Some of Cok’s poetry has been translated in English and French. Check out her very informative blog at http://coksawitrisidemen.blogspot. com/

Wayan Sunarta is another Balinese poet whose work has been translated and widely published in several magazines, newspapers and anthologies. The theme of love, human alienation, nature and spirituality runs through his poetry; as does social and cultural criticism. His poems address man’s alienation in the middle of the rapid onslaught of Western culture in Bali. He laments that many sacred objects are sold to tourists and that sacred dances are packaged for tourism. Because of the negative effects of tourism, the Balinese are increasingly cut off from their cultural roots. Through poetry Wayan wants to communicate the thoughts and feelings that cannot be rendered in other written form. Writing poetry is a form of meditation and self-expression, as well as a means to convey ideas and criticism. His poems are constructed in the lyrical style with special attention to diction, metaphor, rhythm and sound. He also watches the content of the poem so as not to fall into slogans or pamphlets. He uses different techniques to express himself and says he learned the craft of

poetry by studying the work of legendary Chairil Anwar, Gunawan Mohamad, Octavio Paz, Arthur Rimbaud and other poets, both from Indonesia and abroad. And what constitutes good poetry? Wayan says “good poetry is poetry that is able to harmonize content and form (technique). A good poem is born of deep reflection on life, contains compassion, and is able to enlighten or inspire people. Poetry is a quiet and sublime region where I can learn about the meaning of life and the beauty of the infinite. Poetry is my attempt to create pieces of glass into a mirror of self, from where I try to identify the pieces of my soul, lost memories and the journey of life that I know will never end. The poem is a process that leads to self discovery.” Wayan blogs at http://jurnal-jengki.blogspot.com. Then there are poets like Kamau Abayomi who rhyme, rap and hip hop. Kamau has won many poetry slams in the US and in Bali, notably at the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival. He is also the creator and art director of Tru Karya Cipta (True Creative Activity), a Bali Hip Hop Community modeled on similar groups in his native San Francisco. The group is a gathering place for youngsters who want to express and develop their creativity in any artistic way through poetry, rap, music, dance, visual and performing arts. Hip hop is born out of the black experience in America and a culture that embodies song and dance. It has become a contemporary cultural phenomenon that encompasses any form of art and has been embraced by young people all over the world.

Kamau says the only difference between poetry and rap is in the delivery and rhythm. Rapping is foremost a rhyming skill and its purpose is to create energy and dynamics. But both are an extension of the classic poetry tradition, a modern day version of the universal yearning to express one’s spirit. The creative process in poetry according to Kamau is to start with yourself and your life experiences. He has no use for classical or conventional poetry. His frame of reference is the poetry of James Baldwin who expressed the feelings of the black community in the USA by exploring tensions with personal identity, racial, sexual, and class distinctions. Kamau sees the natural evolution of poetry as including the Hip hop generation who have revitalized and popularized poetry and taken it to a different level by setting it to music to make it performance poetry. Kamau believes poetry should be a true performing art including visuals to accompany the text and recreate the scene of the poem. It should be intuitive and contain an element of mysticism that reflects the depth of the poet’s soul. Though Kamau likes contemporary poets because they write from life’s experiences, he claims that no-one influenced him because his poetry is coming from his own inner being and is a very individualistic expression of how he sees the world, based on his own life’s experiences. Visit his blog at http:// pitchblackgold.wordpress.com/ And yes, Kamau raps in Indonesian too. Story by Ines Wynn Photo of Tan Lioe Ie by Iwan Darmawan
