C/He/G-8 June 16
By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.
LEAD LEADS to AGGRESSION? Just take a look at the world today. Agression seems to be on the rise, from schools right up to global politics. Recent studies suggest that there could be a chemical reason why our behaviour could be changing for the worse, and that chemical is LEAD. Studies show the crime waves that have afflicted many parts of the world and then, collapsed, have been associated, to the rise and fall in the use of lead-based paint and leaded petrol. Studies between cities, states and nations show that the rise and fall in crime follows, with a roughly 20-year lag, the rise and fall in the exposure of infants to trace quantities of lead. Behavoural effects were first documented in 1943 when infants who had tragically chewed the leaded paint off the railings of their cots were found, years after they had recovered from acute poisoning, to be highly disposed to aggression and violence. What is lead poisoning? Lead poisoning occurs when you absorb too much lead by breathing or swallowing a substance with lead in it, such as food, dust, paint, or water. Lead poisoning in infancy, even at very low levels, impairs the development of those parts of the brain that regulate behaviour and mood. The effect is stronger in boys than in girls. Lead is so toxic that it is unsafe at any level. What causes lead poisoning? Lead poisoning is usually caused by months or years of exposure to small amounts of lead in the home, work, or day care environment. It can also happen very quickly with exposure to high concentrations. The most common source of lead exposure for children is lead-based paint and dust and soil that are contaminated by it, especially in older homes and buildings. Adults are most often exposed to lead in the workplace or while doing hobbies. Those who work with lead-such as metal smelters, welders, or pottery makers-are at a higher risk of lead poisoning. Other sources of lead exposure include: - Contaminated air (including industrial emissions), water,
and soil. - Certain hobbies, such as working with stained glass, building lead-based models, reloading ammunition, or shooting at indoor ranges. - Some alternative medicines and supplements, such as certain vitamins, and jamu. - Eating food or juice stored in cans made with lead or glazed with lead-based glazes. The greatest risk here in Indonesia is via air (leaded petrol fumes) and paint. Some brands of paint that contain lead are also still widely available in Indonesia. In 2010 a British company admitted that that it had paid millions of dollars in bribes to officials in Iraq and Indonesia to be allowed to continue, at immense profit, selling tetratethyl lead. The UK government claims that because tetraethyl lead is not on the European list of controlled exports, there is nothing to prevent the company from selling to whoever it wants. This could be called environmental racism....donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you think? What are the symptoms? There may be no noticeable symptoms of lead poisoning because the effects are subtle or may mimic other conditions. When lead poisoning levels are severe, some general symptoms can include digestive problems, fatigue, headaches, and higher rates of tooth decay. Children with chronic lead poisoning may show slightly lower intelligence and may be smaller in size than children their age who do not have lead poisoning. Behavioral problems can include irritability or aggressiveness, hyperactivity, learning difficulties, lethargy, and loss of appetite. In adults, behavioral symptoms can include irritability, mood and personality changes, changes in sleep patterns, difficulty concentrating, and memory loss. At high levels, lead can affect the central nervous system, leading to poor coordination, weakness in hands and feet, headaches, and in severe cases, convulsions, paralysis, and coma.
How is lead poisoning diagnosed? A lead blood test measures the amount of lead in the blood. Although this test does not measure the complete level of lead in the body, it is the best test available at this time. A urine sample collected over 24 hours and tested for lead can give information about the total lead in the body (body lead burden) and is often used before treatment to remove lead (chelation therapy) is started. (Prodia laboratory now offers heavy metal blood content assesment at their Denpasar Lab). Diagnosing lead poisoning is difficult because the symptoms can be caused by many diseases. Most children with lead poisoning do not have symptoms until their blood lead levels are very high. A blood lead test is necessary to identify these children. How is it treated? Treatment for lead poisoning includes removing the source of lead exposure and eating a balanced diet. Adequate nutrition, especially sufficient iron intake, helps prevent absorption of lead. Often this treatment approach is enough to reduce lead levels in the body. If this is not successful or if lead levels are very high, chelation therapy may be used. Chelation therapy involves taking medicines that bind to lead in the body and help speed its elimination through the kidneys. (Chelation therapy is not available in Bali, however centers in Singapore would be able to provide this service).

Beware Ingesting “Eternity” Plastic Microbeads Quit using toothpaste, shower gels & scrubs loaded with toxic plastic
For years the cosmetic and personal care companies have been feeding us tiny toxic plastic polyethylene pellets, called microbeads, which we can ingest both directly and again as it enters the food chain. These companies do it simply because it is cheaper for them than using natural non-toxic ingredients. Finally regulators in the US, Australia and Europe promise to put a stop to the practice. Meantime many major companies continue to add the pellets, while doubts remain as to their good faith and future compliance. In May last year California was the latest state to consider banning products with microbeads, the tiny pieces of plastic, often less than a millimetre wide, that have become a popular addition to cosmetics and personal care products. Usually made of polyethylene, microbeads primarily serve as exfoliants in face washes, shower gels and body scrubs, but also add color and texture to toothpastes, lip balms, moisturizing creams, and makeup. A single tube of face wash can contain more than 300,000 of the plastic beads, which are many times cheaper than natural exfoliants like apricot seeds, coconut husks, or diatomaceous earth.
Johnson & Johnson, which makes Neutrogena, and L’Oréal, which owns Garnier, have now pushed their pledge to remove the beads back to 2017 and we will have to wait and see if they will honour their pledges. Unilever phased polyethylene microbeads out of its products, including Dove and Axe soaps, earlier this year. What are state governments in the US doing about it? Last year, Illinois became the first to crack down on the sale of products with non-biodegradable microbeads. They will be phased out starting in 2017 and completely banned by 2019. Since then, Colorado, Maine, and New Jersey have passed similar laws, and California, Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon, Wisconsin, and Washington have bills on the table. But environmentalists say that most of these measures aren’t going far enough, as they leave loopholes for biodegradable plastics. So far as anyone knows, there are no plastics that consistently break down totally in a marine environment. A year ago the California state assembly approved the most stringent bill so far to prohibit both synthetic and biodegradable microbeads. If the bill becomes law, it may force manufacturers to change their entire product lines to avoid the cost of making microbead-free products just for the California market
Here’s the lowdown on which products contain microbeads and why you should be concerned about them. The US Congress has already passed a law banning microbeads—the same tiny pieces of plastic used as exfoliants First, the environmental impact of microbeads: in face washes, as well as noted above, in toothpastes, Microbeads are so small that plus other personal-care products. most water treatment plants Research shows that the beads don’t catch them, so they wind are too small to be caught by waup in lakes, streams, and ter treatment plants, so they end oceans.

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit By Michele Cempaka
The World is Waking up I had the privilege of doing an interview with Salini Apodaca, author of Emerging from the Matrix. Salini is a spiritual teacher and Reiki master who studied Reiki with Hawayo Takata, the first woman to bring Reiki to the western world and be initiated as a Reiki Grand Master in the lineage of Mikao Usui, the founder of Reiki.
going to wake up folks whether you realize it or not. I urge you to find the right healer and begin your process of spiritual awakening. It’s not just your physical healing. We’re talking about your mental, emotional and soul healing. Most people have been indoctrinated in one form or another into wrong belief systems.”
although I do see people for things like that. People are drawn to me for awakening and empowerment whether they realize it or not. I delve into their blocked soul issues and liberate the energy. Then they are free to step into their True Self and Soul Purpose. The spiritual awakening is a natural by-product of the healing I give them,” said Salini.
“Times seem to be quite turbulent for many people who are experiencing a lot of energetic changes both personally and globally. Many are having difficulty sleeping or have a lot of anxiety. There’s also a lot of fear that seems to be rising up to the surface. What’s going on, Salini?”
Salini believes that if you want to be awakened, you have to leave the matrix. The matrix is made up of an energy web that consists of lies, spells, trances and traumas. That web is spun around us so that we can’t wake up and be whole.
Some of the changes which may occur as we all awaken are: becoming more intuitive, psychic or even telepathic. I have already been experiencing my own psychic abilities increasing, as before I was mainly clairsentient (someone who can feel energies and is empathic) and now I’m also becoming clairvoyant.
“What’s happening is something that has never before occurred in global history – our planet is experiencing a massive spiritual awakening. We’ve been building towards this for six billion years. In the last 150 years we’ve had a lot of advancement in human consciousness. We had the industrial revolution, followed by the technological revolution, which radically changed our world. Now we’re in the midst of a spiritual revolution. The moment has finally arrived – the whole world is waking up! As this occurs, we are seeing greater transformation of all the systems and technology towards humanitarian purposes. We’re currently witnessing the darkness surfacing, but at the same time, the light is also surfacing. The process of the darkness surfacing looks bad – there’s war and death and a lot of deprivation, but it’s really the wound of the earth cleansing itself. As this happens you’re going to see more and more of the hundredth monkey effect; more and more people will start waking up. And when they wake up, they help other people to wake up,” said Salini with conviction in her voice. “This awakening is occurring throughout our universe. It’s like the birth of a baby. Earth has been in the womb for a very long time and she is getting ready to come out and scream, “I’m alive! I’m awake!” There are many nefarious forces out there that have been trying to block this. Why? They have been parasiting the energy of this planet for thousands of years – that’s how they have sustained their alien races.” Salini advises that we need to transform our own inner selves from our lower to our higher selves. This is a process of sacred alchemy that she talks about in her book. Healers have the capacity to transform someone from illness to wellness and darkness to light. When healers facilitate healing for others, we are creating sacred alchemy. “The negative forces have been trying to keep us off balance,” says Salini. Even so, there are many of us here that are light beings, healers, mystics, etc., who are here to bring people back into balance. This is the moment in history where you’re
“If you want to be a part of the matrix and the tribe, you have to swallow the myth. If you want to wake up then you have to be willing to look at the truth and discard the lie. This is really painful for people, but it has to be done. One of my purposes here on earth is to be a ‘truth speaker’. If someone comes to me and is living inside a huge myth or lie, I’m going to have to puncture that balloon. If you want to heal then this has to go away – whatever that belief system is. Religion is part of that, because it’s very dogmatic and limited. When people get involved with religion, there are all these structures, rituals, dogmas and practices that come around you that limit the free flow of your divine energy. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t have faith. I’m just asking, if religion is really the basis for your spiritual power? I’m also not saying to discard your religion, but instead, don’t be afraid to go beyond the limitations.” According to Salini, one of the first things that has to be discarded is the notion that our planet is patriarchal when in truth, it is actually a matriarchal planet. The Earth is a feminine energy and the Sun is a masculine energy. Together they create life. What’s empowering us is a balancing of the yin and yang. She believes that the male energy has taken over the female energy and become corrupted and destructive. This has to be eradicated as it will not be beneficial in the coming millennium which will be ruled by the female and matriarchal energies of our planet. “We aren’t taught in school the real history. No one talks about the fact that there were actually thousands of years of female rulers with males working side by side. There were no wars during that time because there was so much harmony. All of those cultures that were like this believed that God was a woman.” “I wanted to get some clarification about why you feel we need to find a healer for our spiritual awakening?” “I think it’s important to find a mentor or spiritual teacher. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a healer. When people come to me it’s not usually something simple like a broken leg
“Are there any tools or practices that you can recommend, that will help people navigate their way through these challenging times?” “There are several. I recommend that people learn Reiki and get to at least level 2, because at this level you will be able to work on yourself and others spiritually, emotionally and mentally. Reiki seems to open up people’s true path. Second, is to meditate every day, and take on a practice such as Chi Gong, yoga or Tai Chi. Third, it’s important to increase your Self-love by nurturing yourself. Do what makes you feel happy and well like getting a healing or being in nature. Fourth, it’s time to begin selfless service to humanity. When you do this, the doors to abundance and opportunity will open wide,” said Salini. Salini is here in Bali for a few more weeks.

BA Feature Article
Elder Care in Bali. By Ines Wynn On the one hand we hear about the virtual non-existence of elder care, assisted living facilities and professional services for the local aging population; on the other hand, the government is thinking up new schemes to rake in expat retirement dollars through the development of up to 16 accredited and international-standard retirement communities around the island, away from the tourist hubs, targeting well-off expat retirees. International investors -primarily western hospitals and retirement home operators- are being invited to the table and encouraged to participate in this $10 billion program. Is this a doable, realistic project or another wild pipedream thought up during a brainstorming session among bureaucrats on how to collect more of those retiree dollars? With this type and level of investment, one wonders if these retirement communities will only cater to a select breed of retirees – the wealthy – or is there room for the retired expats with more modest means? The Bali retirement dream is popular among many expats and wouldbe residents for several reasons. First, given the economic situation in their home countries and the prevalence of inadequate pensions, it may appear to be cheaper to spend your retirement years in Bali. Besides the weather isn’t bad and the prices for housing and overall cost of living, outside of the tourist hot spots, are still affordable. Many retirees also think that Indonesia, like many countries in SE Asia, would offer up similar havens for retirees and provide integrated social-medical services as is the case in countries like Thailand and Malaysia. Reality, however, is a tad different. Though the government authorities are touting retirement living and medical tourism, there is actually very little in the way of infrastructure and integrated services to meet the needs of an aging expat population. Part of the reason lies in the cultural roots of this society where elderly people are held in great esteem and the family system of communal living holds the elders close in the family compound where they live their last days in the circle of their loved ones. Relatively few of the elderly people in Bali end up on the streets or turn up in government or NGO run facilities. There are no fancy medical-social integrated service institutions focused on elderly care like there are in western countries. Even the general medical care has only seen improvements in the last few years and is now in striking distance of better standards. Sanglah has recently become an internationally accredited hospital and other medical facilities such as BIMC, Siloam, BROS and SOS operate under higher standards than is the case in the other hospital and medical facilities in Bali. There are no retirement homes for the local population that approach even a modest standard of care. Nor are there any day care centers. The so-called panti jompo (nursing home) like Wana Seraya in Denpasar and Jana Mara in Lovina, managed by the provincial social welfare agency, are the only places to take in the very poor and abandoned elderly. Their level of care is a sad rendition of a nursing home with inadequate staf¿ng, low level medical care and insuf¿cient space. A few NGOs, community groups and individuals try to help by donating food, blankets, medicines, etc. but this is just a drop in the bucket. These are clearly not the facilities where western expats would want to spend their twilight years. Outside of the government sponsored programs, no individual initiatives funded from abroad, are taking shape. Sentosa Worldwide Resorts at one time was marketing the concept of a retirement community in Umalas with integrated services at international standards. However, that plan has quietly disappeared and all enquiries go unanswered. Medical and retirement tourism in Bali is still a big gleam in the of¿cial eye. The government has taken note of the hordes of elderly tourists and retirees that are visiting or living in Bali and has announced big plans to meet the needs of the many retirees who want to spend their sunset years in Bali. One plan that has been bandied about these past few years
is to establish retirement communities within existing traditional Balinese villages. It was expected that several traditional villages throughout Bali would host and cater to elderly tourists in a natural and authentic village-type setting. Eight villages were designated for development as senior citizen destinations: Pinge (Tabanan), Pancasari (Buleleng), Blimbingsari (Jembrana), Bedahulu (Gianyar), Penglipuran (Bangli), Budakeling and Jasri (Karangasem). Due to the challenges of converting or adapting these Balinese traditional villages to the demands of the grey expat market -which would require the integration of international standard medical care- this plan has apparently been scrapped in favor of a more focused approach to serving expat retirees. Instead, a new program has been approved to develop up to 16 new international standard retirement communities for expats and locals, modeled on the western-style assisted living facilities. At present, several locations have been identi¿ed as potential sites for the development of international standard retirement villages in Badung, Tabanan, Payangan (close to Ubud), in Jembrana, Candi Dasa, Bedugul and Buleleng. Detailed building and development plans for 3 of these sites have been developed to build assisted living facilities and modern retirement homes, complete with integrated medical care. These retirement communities are to be built on government land and a number of international investors, - mainly retirement home chains, elder care facilities in Europe, Asia, Australia and international hospitals - are being approached to become stakeholders in this program in order to ensure that international standards are met for these retirement centers. These communities would then be af¿liated with one or more of the 6 Bali international standard hospitals like Sanglah, Bali Royal Hospital (Renon), Siloam (Kuta), BIMC (Nusa Dua), SOS and the new Bali Mandara hospital in Sanur to provide backup and emergency medical services. This is obviously an impressive and ambitious project that will take many years to complete. The project is being spearheaded by the Bali Retirement Tourism Authority (BRTA) whose chairman, Dr. Ketut Sukardika, provided the original idea. The Bali provincial government, whose unrelenting goal is to incrementally increase tourist numbers year by year, is enthused about the idea and has of¿cially tasked the BRTA to realize this focused goal.
The idea behind the establishment of those expat retirement communities is to emulate the practices of the west where older people prefer to spend their golden years living independently as long as possible and, when faced with the need of daily living and/or medical assistance, can move to fully integrated and equipped retirement centers which include 24-hour nursing care and household help. Dr. Sukardika knows the retirement business of the west. He is an oncologist-immunologist and became a hospital planner in retirement. He is progressing this program on several fronts at the same time and, as a member of a Balinese investor consortium, has made a personal ¿nancial investment to help develop and build the ¿rst of these retirement communities. Besides the actual physical planning of the retirement communities, he is also pushing for more efficient visa procedures to allow expat retirees to spend their remaining years in Bali, without having to battle the current immigration obstacles and undergo the bureaucratic hassle of the yearly retirement visa renewal. BRTA has developed international standard procedures and an accreditation program as a guideline for international investors. In addition, BRTA has established agreements with service providers such as Air Bali and the Marine Police to
provide evacuation in case of emergency. The new Bali Mandara Hospital in Sanur already has a helipad and this is also forecast to be an inclusive feature for some of the more remote retirement communities. To get an idea of what these communities would be like, you can already visit SadaJiwa, the first assisted living community located in Sembung, some 5 kilometers north of Mengwi. It is the ¿rst in the lineup of retirement communities and still a work in progress on a site of 2 hectare. Founded by Dr. Gede Patra, former director of Tabanan general hospital, SadaJiwa is already operational and has a number of expat residents, aged 65 to 97, originally from Japan, Germany, the USA and the UK. Sada Jiwa provides around-the-clock nursing services and full-time resident medical staff, including 2 general practice physicians and therapeutic staff. There is a fully equipped physio-therapy room with 2 therapists who can administer acupuncture, infrared treatments and general physiotherapy. Specialists are on call and an ambulance is on standby to take patients to outside facilities or hospitals. SadaJiwa is af¿liated with BROS (Bali Royal) hospital in Renon. It also functions as a Daycare Center for the elderly local population. Twice a week, from 7 to 10 am, a structured program is provided in which local and expat elders can participate. A separate pavilion is destined for exercise and group activities, like yoga, memory and coordination exercises and all around fun games like origami. The program is provided by SadaJiwa as part of their social responsibility philosophy. Resident tenants are housed in attractive cottages which feature a sitting room with TV and mini-fridge, a spacious bedroom with double bed, a w h e e l c h a i r a c c e s s i b l e bathroom, space for an outdoor kitchen and a comfortable veranda. The cottages offer lots of privacy and are built in a peaceful natural setting, close to the river. The grounds are spacious and well maintained with opportunities for residents to take part in gardening activities or sports. Lots of trees provide shade. Meals and snacks are served in an attractive outdoor restaurant where residents can also gather for social activities, TV watching or other individual pursuits. There are 12 cottages available now but there is room to build 8 more. At a later stage, more cottages will be constructed as well as a swimming pool. In the more immediate future, an intensive care unit will be added to care for victims of stroke, terminal cancer and other palliative care patients. At the other side of the spectrum, planning is in the works to establish a daycare and/or inpatient care unit for autistic children requiring constant supervision. Compared to assisted living facilities in the western world, SadaJiwa’s monthly resident fees are very modest, from USD1500 to 3000, depending on the degree of medical or therapeutic care required. Add to this the soothing natural environment, the year-around balmy weather, the genuine caring attitude of the medical and household staff, plenty of opportunities for excursions and diversions, and this Bali-style retirement facility becomes a very attractive alternative to the expensive and often impersonal way of elder caregiving in the western countries. SadaJiwa wants their residents to feel very at home and great care is expended to make that happen. You can even bring your beloved Fido or other innocuous pet. www.sadajiwabali.co.id Facebook: SadaJiwa Bali Copyright © 2016 Bali Advertiser You can read all past articles of BA Feature Article at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

If the acquisitive cartel of private interests and public of¿cials that really runs Bali wants to turn the island into Disneyland, it must be conceded (through gritted teeth) that they can. The electoral check on such excess is even more notional here than in other more functional democracies. We’ve seen in the proposal to bury Benoa Bay under masses of defective concrete and frightful architectural kitsch and turn it into Port Excrescence (a project of PT I’m Gonna Make a Motza) that the environment runs a poor second to the heady thrill of grubbing out another zillion rupiahs. We’ve seen too that the considered consensus views of the villages and banjars that are protesting mean absolutely nothing; at least so far. Ditto with the despoliation of the reef and surf line in the vicinity of the new Kempinski and RitzCarlton hotels under construction on the southern Bukit. There, some curious alchemy conjured up a very dodgy bit of paper featuring a magic of¿cial signature. We now hear, via the Bali Post newspaper, a particularly vacuous thought bubble from the head of the Buleleng chapter of the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI), a gentleman by the name of Dewa Suardipa. He would like to see dolphin cages built in the sea off Lovina so as to “optimise” (as Jack Daniels’ Bali Update reports from the Post on Aug. 8) the attractiveness of dolphin tours promoted to tourists visiting North Bali. Perhaps these disgraceful prisons for highly intelligent sea creatures could be built near that other future-planner’s delight, the proposed offshore North Bali airport. (We do wonder whether they’ve thought about tsunami barriers, not to mention whether they’d work, but that’s another topic.) That way the hordes of gawkers they would like to attract to see the pernicious results of extraordinary rendition in yet another guise wouldn’t ever actually have to set foot in the real Bali. They wouldn’t have to interact either with the local boatmen who at present make a modest income from taking small parties of tourists out to see the dolphins in their natural habitat. Maybe these dispossessed persons could be armed with gaff hooks and employed to whistle at the captive dolphins and wave ¿sh at them; by this means, according to Pak Dewa of the Buleleng PHRI, the poor creatures (the dolphins, we mean) could be trained to perform on demand and would soon learn not to be distressed or depressed. Hey, they could co-opt the deprived dolphins from that sick excuse for an attraction at Keremas to give them lessons. Oh no, that wouldn’t work. They’re still depressed, poor things. How can that be? They get fed ¿sh and can see the sea if they breast the edge of their swimming pool for a wistful look at their home. It’s so often an Edvard Munche Day in Bali. You know, when you just have to let out a manic scream.
Saurian Point While we’re on the topic of potty ideas, something from Kupang in Indonesian Timor blipped the radar recently. Crocodiles have presented themselves as a problem for the capital of East Nusa Tenggara. They’ve apparently been doing so since 2011, but it takes a little time for of¿cialdom to notice these things. Saltwater crocs are endemic to the area, though they seem to have stayed decorously out of sight until ¿ve years ago, when suddenly they started eating people. I say, chaps, that’s poor form! In the Australian city of Darwin, 800 kilometres away to the southeast, the city authorities have built fences behind the popular beach area so that sunbathers and other playful types can lie around in peace, or play ball or whatever, without the statistical risk of being grabbed by a leg and dragged away for an unwanted death roll. In Kupang, the solution is not infrastructure. It’s a croc-capturing competition. The current score-line is Crocs 19 People 0 and the city fathers would like to even things up. This we learned from a story by Jewel Tops¿eld, the Fairfax group correspondent in Jakarta, and Amelia Rosa, that appeared in The Sydney Morning Herald and other Fairfax papers in Australia. We silently thanked them when we read the yarn. It’s so nice to get a chortle with your morning cuppa. The competition, with prize money of Rp5 million per capture, was set to start after Independence Day. We’ll watch that score-line carefully.
Direct Aid Elizabeth Henzell, who is among the nicest people we know, had a lovely story to tell the other day. She’s not exactly Àush with funds. Who is these days, except a Jakarta
tycoon? But she does recognise, as many do, that even the poorest expatriate lives better and has more than most Balinese. So she helps beggars, those people (the ones from Karangasem are in the Governor’s sights at the moment as unwanted elements of his preferred touristic streetscape) who wander the streets of Ubud in search of money so they can eat. On her way through to Villa Kitty at Lodtunduh – which is where her money goes, the NGO being as short of funds as most in the animal welfare area – she made a stop as she often does at the Pertamina petrol station on Jl. Raya Pengosetan. Instead of just handing out money to the little “family” she helps, a “mother” and several children, this time she asked what they’d like to eat. It was something very modest from the food stall just across the street. She took them there and bought them a meal. It would have cost more to have coffee at Starbucks. Hunger is a pervasive distemper. It saps energy and in the end intellect too. A full tummy is a wonderful tonic. Henzell said of the evening in question: “This was at 9.30pm last night. They were so hungry. I left four children and a very tired mother all sitting in a little circle eating their Bakso. All for Rp 68,000, but who will feed them tomorrow? Hopefully someone will have done so. For the moment, we just say this: Elizabeth, we love you.
Truck Off We hear that at long last the authorities in Bangli regency have cracked down on the pro¿table extraction of lava gravel in the Lake Batur basin and told the trucks that make a menace of themselves on the narrow roads up and down the mountain to cease and desist. They haven’t, quite, we understand. No surprises there. But the traf¿c has reduced. Apparently this late accession to something notionally resembling sound principles of environmental protection followed a word from the UN to the effect that the prized Batur Geo Park would not be goer without an end to extractive vandalism.

One day, perhaps, the island’s authorities will work out that Bali’s environment actually is precious and not just a PR pitch. And that returning it to something resembling nature and – where this is no longer possible – a state of cleanliness means doing something more than just proclaiming the aim of being Clean and Green. It’s green at the moment, because the dry season is being damp, courtesy of La Niña, and at ¿rst glance it’s clean – in parts – because the leafy glades hide all the garbage that at this time of year would normally lie revealed in all its noisome horror.
Sad Departure Our paths never crossed – we walked a different beat – but Joe Kennedy was a Name, a master of his craft of photography, and that he is now no longer with us is a tragedy. He’d had a motorcycle accident on Jul. 29 and had suffered mild concussion and broken ribs, but was recovering well and was expecting to be discharged from Sanglah General Hospital in Denpasar when a sudden and quite unexpected heart attack carried him off on Aug. 4. This was three days short of his 57th birthday. That’s far too young. Kennedy was born in Northern Ireland and worked in the oil industry for nearly a quarter of a century before starting a new career as a professional photographer in 2004. He set up Joe Kennedy Photography in 2006 and quickly established himself as a snapper of choice. His funeral was at the Yasa Setra Mandala Crematorium at Taman Mumbul on Aug. 9. Friends held a wake for him afterwards at Villa Ramadewa in Seminyak.

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris
Beautiful Vines ‘Good afternoon Dr. Kris, I have just returned from my annual Bali holiday and am amazed each trip by the magni¿cent plants grown. The trend around Kuta/Legian and afar at the moment seems to be climber (cascading but not climbing) from roof tops balconies and alike. No doubt it will Àower but all I have seen is this beautiful delicately cascading ‘vine’ which has at some hotels been cut to length. To me it resembles a jasmine or potato vine. Are you able to put a name to it or something similar so that I can incorporate it into my garden by growing similar (in pots) along my veranda roof. I live in NSW but close to the Queensland (Gold Coast border) so the weather is similar to Bali. I am sorry I do not have a photo to show you. Kindest regards, Lynne (Copp)’ Climbers and creepers add vertical interest to walls and trellises sometimes scrambling down over rooftops, verandas or even other plants. Without a picture it is hard to say exactly which plant you are describing, but generally jasmine is very commonly used as climber in Balinese landscapes. There are numerous varieties with similar foliage types and different Àowers. Jasmine is good for covering up walls as well as growing along structures, with the added bonus of the beautiful scent that it brings with it. There exists a true jasmine and a false jasmine, and the two are commonly mistaken for each other because of the fragrance the plants release. The true jasmine belongs to the family Oleaceae, they have oval, shiny leaves and tubular, waxy-white Àowers and is primarily a bushy shrub or a climbing vine. But not all true jasmines are fragrant. On the other hand, the star jasmine, one of the most fragrant plants commonly called jasmine, is not a true jasmine at all (it belongs to the genus Trachelospermum). Most Jasmines grow well in moist, well drained sandy to clay soil. They prefer full sun to partial shade, and will do well in tropical to sub-tropical climates. Jasmine is very versatile, it can be used in a variety of ways – not only as a climber but
also as a groundcover, shrub or you could even try it indoor. Once established they are quite drought tolerant. Some interesting facts about Jasmine There are over 200 species mainly native to tropical warm regions of the world. Jasmine is widely known for its herbal properties and popular scent often found in a variety of cosmetic products including perfumes however not all jasmine plants are fragrant. Jasmine sambac or Sacred Jasmine is the national Àower of Indonesia known as melati putih. It is often used in of¿cial ceremonies, and is also a very popular Àower around the world. Jasmine tea is also famous among herbal tea enthusiasts, having its origins in China. The jasmine essential oil, extracted from the two species Jasminum of¿cinale and grandiÀorum, is used in perfumes, cosmetics, oils and shampoos.
White potato vine (Solanum jasminoides), which can often be mistaken for jasmine, is a dense vigorous growing plant. It is a popular landscape plant because of its proli¿c white ‘starry’ Àower clusters and hardy nature. It will easily take over your garden and for this reason requires regular maintenance. It is not the ¿rst choice for a climber near a pathway, or as a cascading plant to grow over rooftops and balconies as it will regularly send out shoots of well over a meter in length. Those new shoots could easily cause annoyance or perhaps even poke you in the eye!
It is far better to grow it in a situation where it can ¿ll into a large space, and should not be planted in where it is likely to become a nuisance. Choose a place where it can grow well unhindered, it is likely not suitable for an outdoor pergola, especially if it is in an area for outdoor entertaining. If you get this plant, then you’d better like pruning! The beautifully delicate cascading vine you describe or may be in search of may well be the mandevilla plant. The white Àowering varieties are often mistaken for jasmine. Mandevilla have some of the most beautiful showy Àowers that can be found in the garden - blooming constantly throughout warmer months and in warmer climates. This is a tropical vine with lush green foliage and large Àowers (which come in colours white, pink, red, yellow) very often seen cascading down hotel and villa walls. This plant is native to Central and South America and has become more common in backyards and landscapes all over the place for very good reason. The brilliant mandevilla trumpet Àowers add a tropical Àair to any landscape. It is an outstanding vine to grow up trellises, walls, arbors, pergolas, verandas, fences or poles. They add a plethora of colour to the patio or to the entrance of a backyard with lots of sun. Beware that this vine is a sun lover-partial shade will mean less Àowers. Mandevillas can either be planted directly into the garden otherwise grown in pots. They like a regular soaking with water but at the same time require adequate drainage or time to dry out between watering intervals. Overwatering mandevilla will cause many problems and could easily kill your plant. The tuberous roots of the plant are very ef¿cient at holding water, and they will likely rot if they remain waterlogged for any period of time. If the soil is heavy clay or drainage insuf¿cient it’s much safer to grow them in large pots, with plenty of drainage holes. Take care when pruning as all parts of the plant exude a milky sap when cut which could cause an allergic reaction to those susceptible. Mandevilla is likely to be exactly what you are looking for to bring that tropical ‘Bali feel’ into your garden. It is a beautiful landscaping plant, with lush deep green foliage, showy trumpet flowers and it is versatile for growing vertically or even cascading down over rooftops and balconies.

COLOUR ME NATURAL
We eat with our eyes, and attractively coloured food stimulates the appetite. For millennia colours have been added to food to serve as a visual cue for quality and to make it appear more appealing. Food colouring has been around since at least 1500 BCE when the Egyptians enhanced the hues of their sweets and cosmetics. Saffron is mentioned as a colourant in Homer’s Iliad. The ¿rst known legislation around food colouring was a 1396 French act against the colouring of butter, followed by another law in 1574 making it illegal to colour pastries. Using saffron to colour food in Germany was punished by death in Germany. Enhancing or changing the colour of food wasn’t really a big issue as long as people were mostly growing and preparing what they ate. But then came the Industrial Revolution and with it, mass migration as millions of British poured into factories and cities from the countryside in the ¿rst half of the 19th century. Dependent on food produced by others, they quickly formed a large market for low-cost, processed fare. The food industry was born.
outright poisoning now although there is still dissension about which arti¿cial colours are safe. According to one report, some of the most commonly used food dyes may be linked to numerous forms of cancer, along with hyperactivity and other behavioral problems in children. As of July 2010, most foods in the European Union that contain arti¿cial food dyes come with warning labels, and the British government has also asked that food manufacturers remove most arti¿cial colors from foods. This initiative is not being followed in the United States, however. Indonesia has regulations about food colouring but it’s common for food producers to try and squeeze a bit more pro¿t by using cheaper alternatives. Textile dyes, which are full of heavy metals, are sometimes used to colour snacks. Indonesia’s National Agency of Drug and Food Control routinely checks and busts food manufacturers but it’s a moving target given the hundreds of thousands of cottage industries across the archipelago. A good rule of thumb is that the brighter and less natural the colour of processed food, the less wholesome it is likely to be. Indonesia has a long tradition of using natural dyes to colour food. In early August, Slow Food Bali held an event called The Colour of Life featuring Threads of Life and traditional food expert Helianti Hilman. Ibu Heli is famous for her line of traditional Indonesian foods under the Javara brand and you can bet your last rupiah
Natural food dyes aren’t used industrially because they’re usually not stable with exposure to light, heat or acids Natural colour is often lost during food processing so in this lucrative new industry minerals were used to make processed food more appealing. Sweets were and continue to be brightly coloured to appeal to children. In 1820 it was common to find sweets coloured with minerals: red vermillion (mercury sulphide), red lead, white lead, yellow lead chromate and copper arsenite. Cheese was coloured with red lead and pickles with copper sulphate. Until the middle of the nineteenth century the colours used in cosmetics, textiles, drugs and foods (whether poisonous or not) were of natural origin from animals, plants and minerals. In 1856, the ¿rst synthetic colour was discovered and the new colour industry began to produce vibrant reds, yellows, greens and blues for the textile and other trades. The arti¿cial dyes were a cheap and stable method of colouring food and quickly became very popular. Food producers routinely cut corners to save pennies, and almost all processed food contained some kind of toxin in those early days. Food adulteration was common. Arti¿cial colours, including those known to be poisonous, were used not just to disguise poor quality but to allow imitation foods to be sold as the real thing. There were few regulations in these early days and analytical chemistry was still primitive. The ¿rst British legislation about food colourants was in 1874. In the United States, the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 reduced the permitted list of synthetic colors from 700 down to seven. These days, food manufacturers pour 15 million pounds of arti¿cial food dyes a year into processed food in the United States alone. Contemporary regulations protect us from
there is no weird stuff in her products. Ibu Heli started her mission to bring organic artisanal food products from Indonesia to the world in 2008 and now works with farmers producing everything from heritage rice to sea salt to red palm sugar. Her goal is not just to make a pro¿t but to help many small farmers earn more money for their unique products while preserving some traditional indigenous products in danger of being replaced by mass-market foods. Today, Javara produces 400 different products, all sourced from 50,000 small organic producers scattered from Aceh to Papua. In developing these products, Javara introduced value-added technology to enable farmers to secure fair prices and bigger markets for their products. The group also provides access to investment and working capital to its farmers. Javara products are available through 500 retailers in Indonesia and in Switzerland, Italy, Japan, Korea and the US as well as through the website www.javara.co.id. Javara
products include gift packets of naturally dyed heritage rice and sea salts. “Natural food dyes aren’t used industrially because they’re usually not stable with exposure to light, heat or acids,” Heli told a rapt audience in the Bebali Foundation’s natural dye studio near Ubud. “The colours are more subtle than chemical dyes. Colours are derived from the roots, bark, fruit, Àowers, stems and leaves of ordinary garden plants. Most have no taste but a few, like the pandan leaf, lend a delicate Àavor to the food. The technique of infusing rice with plant dyes has been used for generations. “Each colour has meaning. For example, a tumpeng (rice cone) tinted with blue from the cow pea Àower is sent as an apology in Central Java.” This delightful tradition is probably disappearing as fast as cow pea vines and young women who can make anything more complicated than instant noodles. Another example is orange rice used to celebrate the coronation of a king, dyed with secang or saipan wood. Yellow is for general celebrations and often seen here in Bali where a turmeric-tinted tumpeng replaces the western birthday cake. Green from pandan or guava leaves or daun suji is used for ritual offerings. Teak leaves lend a brown tint to foods; kluwak nut or charcoal from bamboo, rice straw or coconut shell gives a deep black. Rosella Àowers or annatto seeds are used for red or pink hues. Both Javara and Threads of Life share a mission to work with indigenous communities to conserve traditional culture through food or textiles - two industries which rely heavily on dyes. William Ingram of Threads of Life talked knowledgeably at the same event about the use of plant dyes in Indonesia’s traditional textiles. Threads of Life and Bebali have become centres of excellence for traditional textiles and dyes in Indonesia, working with Kew Gardens to document the increasingly rare plants which are integral to the lengthy and labour- intensive production of ikat and batik.

If You Have a Problem with.....
“You Are The Drains Beneath My Feet”
Your “run of the mill” homo sapiens (from the latin “homo” meaning person and the Indonesian “sapi” meaning cow hence cowperson) may be alright when we are talking about John Wayne but is not really someone you want playing with your tubes or wires so to speak. As Fred Darwin postulated in his erudite tome “The Origin of Technical Species” natural selection takes its course and anyone who plays with electricity but doesn’t know what he or she is doing has a tendency to wind up in an ongoing negative survival situation. This has lead to the evolution of a sub species “homo electricus”. Genuine homo electricus are very rare particularly on the Eastern side of the Wallace line. Mutations have occurred, many resulting from the inbreeding breeding of the beach dwelling homo boganiae, resulting in a subspecies “homo notatallsapiens”. One was spotted in the wild in 1998 but he was electrocuted in a faulty shower he had installed before he could be caught. Unfortunately plumbing is not so life threatening, let’s face it many of us end up in the poo from time to time, and natural selection only afflicts the customers rather than the installers. In the absence of capable people, Dr Ivor Geneticdisposition, fed up with the unholy stench of toilets throughout his genetic laboratory, took some DNA from a cardivascular surgeon, combined it with homo sapiens to produce homo plumbibus. Homo plumbibamus are rarely found in this country but a refuge has been established hidden away in a quiet corner of Sanur. A programme is under way to establish a breeding colony and access to the public is limited to protect the species. It is well said that a good plumber is worth his weight in plastic pipe as a neighbour of mine recently found out. There is a house close to my own that was only completed about 4 months ago. But then, only a couple of months after completion the hammering started - you know the sound. Eight o’clock on a Sunday morning, a nice lie in with a good book then without warning the peace is shattered - bang, bang, chip, chip, chip, clatter, boom, thump, grind grind (it’s the grinding that really gets you isn’t it?). The unmistakable sound of someone removing expensive tiles from newly completed bathroom walls. I was just a little intrigued, I had to see what was going on. Between hammer blows and the shattering of expensive ceramic the tukang explained that the joints in the water pipes throughout the brand new house were leaking. The problem – a cowperson had used glue. In plumbing you should never use glue for PVC pipes, you use solvent cement. Glue merely sticks things while solvent cement melts and welds the pipes together. A simple but very expensive mistake for a non trained worker to make especially considering that in many places glue is being sold marked as being suitable for PVC pipes. While building maternity units in the East some years ago I came across a similar problem where a brand new building started leaking water out of the walls all over the building, a problem that appeared shortly after the water was turned on. The contractor was cheating his workers and the person allocated the role of plumbing (I won’t call him a plumber) who had not been paid for two months decided to get his own back. He finished the plumbing work and left for another part of Indonesia leaving the joints in the pipes simply pushed together. It was weeks later when the water was finally turned on and his mischief was revealed by which time all the extensive expensive finishing work had to be removed and replaced. The moral - make sure your contractor is looking after his workers…….but sorry I digress. The aspect of plumbing we know as drainage where we carry water away (the water can be rainwater, grey water from showers, washing machines or washbasins and black
Designing Drains When designing and installing drainage systems it is important to consider several factors: 1. How much water they will have to carry at peak times (after a heavy thunderstorm) this will determine the size of the pipe needed to do the job. 2. The slope of the pipe, at least 2% (a fall of 2cms per meter) is advised (SNI 03-6481-2000) but more is better. 3. How to stop unwanted items (leaves, twigs, sand, earth, building cement, food scraps, garbage and female hygiene products) entering the pipe. 4. Where the pipe delivers its water. There are strict laws regarding where what sort of water can be discharged.

Drainage systems also need to be designed so that they are unlikely to become blocked and, if they do become blocked, can be cleaned out easily. To achieve this we do the following: 1. Use round pipes rather than square or rectangular pipes. 2. Use long straight runs wherever possible to ease both the flow and cleaning. 3. Design pipework so that the diameter progressively increases along the pipe as the amount of water collected increases. 4. Keep bends to a minimum. 5. Do not put constrictions (such as valves or narrow connections) in pipes. Constrictions will slow the water flow, cause turbulence and may ”capture” things that are passing. 6. Avoid right angled bends in pipes, cleaning rods and coils can move through 45 degree bends but can be stopped by 90 degree bends. If a 90 degree bend is used this should be a “slow” bend not a sharp elbow. 7. In rainwater drains install manholes at critical points to allow access for cleaning and unblocking. 8. In black and grey water pipes install sealed “cleanouts”, these allow access to the pipe for cleaning while being gastight so they do not smell. 9. Make sure drainage designs are documented with detailed drawings indicating where pipe systems go. These should be made available to building owners and/or residents.

Trying to find a competent plumber is, however, a whole different kettle of marine dwelling lifeforms, indeed Holy Grails are mere child’s play considering the difficulty of finding a real genuine, eating, breathing plumber. Unlike electricians we don’t really notice the shortage of plumbers because somehow we tend “muddle through” even when the water is waist deep (or is that deep waste?) but also we tend to think “what can be so difficult about installing a few pipes?” Perhaps this belief needs a bit of rethinking.

We all know about the difficulty of finding a good electrician because we have all heard the regular stories of poor innocent people going to meet their maker while taking a shower, touching their computer while checking their Facebook page or trying to plug in their electric navel vacuum.

water from toilets) is a field little understood by mere mortals. Installed when a building is constructed, it is underground, out of sight and out of mind and only becomes an issue when something unexpected happens such as flooding, overflowing toilets and washbasins, bad smells or perhaps a septic tank that mysteriously needs to be emptied every couple of months. By this time no one has any idea where the pipework goes or where it discharges its contents.

Self Cleaning Drains Drains, like hippopotamus’s (or is it hippopotami?), should always have round bottoms. There is a simple reason for this - the circular profile makes them “self cleaning”. After a heavy storm there is a good water flow and anything in the pipe gets carried along by the water. A drain with a flat wide bottom needs a lot of water to keep it clear and if the flow decreases the water starts to meander around in the bottom of the drain, the flow of water slows down and any detritus in the water drops to the bottom and starts to collect. If we make the bottom of the pipe round, as the water flow decreases, the circular profile concentrates the flow in the bottom of the drain, the water keeps flowing quickly and so helps to keep the pipe clean. It is good to note that people in some country areas of Bali seem to have caught on to this simple concept and in a number of areas half pipes are being installed for the bottom of roadside drains improving water flow and keeping them clean. In some countries across the world cities are taking this concept a stage further by installing elliptically shaped main sewer pipes. These are installed with the ellipse in the vertical direction thereby increasing the concentration of water flow in the bottom of the pipe. Generally speaking in Indonesia the concept of self cleaning drains is not recognised and flat bottomed “gotts” (roadside drains) will continue to provide annual work for those poor folk who have to crawl into foul, cramped spaces to dig them out every year.

Question: I have been obsessed with physical pain since I was a teenager. I crave for it, yet I never have the courage to do it to myself. As a result, I have dated many of the “wrong guys,” men whom I am certain have the potential to become abusive. Just last week, I met a man whom I’ve been talking to online. We rented a hotel room where we decided to spend the night together. He was a beast - nothing like I have ever experienced before. At one point, I could see his eyes change. His pupils enlarged, his voice deepened, and he started to consume me sexually. Although this is exactly what I had wanted when we began, I realized that he had become a different man. It scared me, and - as a woman alone in a hotel room with a stranger literally twice my size - I knew I was in grave danger. I started to cry and scream “No!” but he did not stop. I cried harder, and he realized that I was hurt. He apologized and hugged and comforted me. We spent the whole 24 hours together. He made me laugh a lot, made sure I was fine, and took care of me. It was lots of fun, and I felt such joy as I have never felt before. My question is, however, should I continue this affair, knowing that this man has a very strong potential of becoming abusive? Or should I save myself from my fetish towards pain? Dr. ZZ: This fellow’s intentions appear to have been premature. You felt pressured and reacted accordingly. This is not to say that he is necessarily a bad person. He’s apparently concerned enough to want the woman he’s with to be satisfied, but he apparently doesn’t understand when to show that concern gently. Perhaps he will learn from this experience. At the same time, you too must exercise caution in sharing personal details at such an early phase in getting to know someone. In the future you may want to practice saying that you are not ready to discuss certain aspects of your personal life just yet. There’s no telling how
another person may connect the dots in what sounds to them like an unspoken invitation. Let there be no mistake, there is no excuse for abuse, and participating a sexual interaction based on inflicting and receiving pain is not a reasonable first step towards developing a healthful, loving relationship. Those two points of information aside, however - and you seem to be intelligent enough to know the difference between an “affair” and the beginnings of a potentially long-term union - two consenting adults, choosing to interact in the sexual arena of S&M does not make for a textbook example of abuse. When you say, “Knowing that he has very strong potential of becoming abusive,” I’m not 100% sure that either you or I can be make that distinction at this point in the conversation. One thing I do know for sure, however, is that the difference between play and abuse hinges on consent, which needs to be carefully mapped out and agreed upon before any S&M interactions take place. To describe someone in terms of his personality changing (“His pupils enlarged, his voice deepened. It scared me, and I knew I was in grave danger”) makes it sound as if he was out of control, and you were in harm’s way - a situation you clearly don’t want for yourself ever, for any reason. Yet, when you talk about his stopping when he realized that you were hurt and his apologizing, comforting and hugging you, he sounds more like an experienced top/dominant rather than an abuser. As much as it is a dominant’s role to exert sexual dominance over his/her partner, it is the dom’s responsibility as well to shower the submissive with aftercare appreciations and intimacies. From the sounds of it, the man you were with may have simply been wrapped up in his own fantasies and may have failed to read your signals. Consent, pre-approval and well-communicated boundaries are the factors that separate S&M from abuse. If you and
C/BM/G-2 March 16
this man - or anyone else for the matter - decide to get together again for more S&M, two things are necessary: 1.) Agreed upon boundaries and compartmentalization of your interactions before you start, and 2.) A pre-arranged, mutually understood “safe word” that means “stop on a dime.” Crying, screaming and yelling “no” are insufficient if you’re engaged in S&M. Something like “red” is a good safe word. That way you can cry, scream and yell all you want, but when you speak the word “red” in any context whatsoever, everything stops immediately. Few people who participate in S&M actually enjoy giving or receiving pain. Instead, they enjoy where pain gets them, the “afterglow” of hugging and comforting that you describe. If this partner or any other has a tendency towards violence, such behavior is likely to be progressive. Your best bet is to set firm boundaries upfront and to be on guard for any signs of escalation beyond your pre-agreed upon stipulations. Then, get yourself out of harm’s way pronto should anything seem to take a path that is not on the menu. A third recommendation I would make - until you get to know the partner you’re with better - is to insist that your encounters be completely free of drugs and alcohol. That way, each of you can remain in complete control of yourself and your perceptions in order to get a better read on yourself and the other person’s energy. Hardcore abuse generally - not always, but more often than not - is accompanied by drug and/or alcohol use and by such telltale signs as jealousy, hypersensitivity, victim positioning (ex., “you make me happy”), breaking or striking objects, cruelty to animals and/or children, non-consensual verbal abuse or threats, and force during arguments. Remove the two potential triggers of drugs and alcohol from your encounters, and you will be better equipped to enjoy your S&M interactions for what they’re worth while evaluating your safety and security. It may even give you a more accurate barometer for not dating so many “wrong guys” in the future. You sound like someone who is prepared to take care of herself. The trick is not to lose sight of the risks, and to stay on top of your game. Copyright © 2016 Say What? You can read all past articles of Say What at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

Cubby House After School Program Means Mum & Dad Can Breathe Easy
If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you! Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.
(and a race or two!) and some chill out time in the games room on the iMacs.
As parents, we tend to don numerous hats and attempt to be many things at once but there are times when we need a little assistance to juggle the variety of afternoon commitments that come with having kids of different ages! School pick up times don’t always line up with work commitments and there can be a period where mum or dad might land at a loss as to how to entertain or occupy the little ones until knock off time. Commencing August 8th, Cubby House Kids Club will introduce a new After School Program for children aged 3 to 12 years. For a mere Rp150,000++ per day kids can enjoy three hours of activities and entertainment from 3pm to 6pm every weekday and parents can rest assured their youngsters stay safe and happily occupied until their big brother or sister has finished after school sport or work is done for the day!
Dull and dreary afternoons are definitely NOT on the agenda as this varied program offers a different line up of activities for each day and just so they still have time to finish the important stuff, there is an hour set aside for kids to complete their homework before getting into the fun. Once the the hard work is done, kids can either chill in AC with the daily movie or channel their artistic talents into creating a masterpiece for mum and dad. Mondays means jewellery making or fancy face painting! Tuesday, they can personalise their bedrooms with individually designed name bunting and budding architects can test their designs with a Lego “Build Off” . Wednesday will see some amazing creations with Magic Sand and a bit of origami action while Thursday’s program gets keen flyers ready for next season with kite making and a bit of musical chair mayhem! Fridays wind down the week that was with paper plane creations
In addition to being seriously cheap and cheerful child care, Cubby House After School Program means kids get to take home their crafty creations, enjoy a healthy snack and stay well hydrated with access to unlimited mineral water throughout the afternoon. It’s the best value Rp150K you’ll spend with the added peace of mind that your cherubs are entertained and entirely safe. As usual, if you are a Canggu Club Platinum or Gold member you get to enjoy a further 20% off the advertised rate! Of course if you are a little late with pick up and you arrive after 5pm, your children will continue to remain under the care of Cubby House Staff but at the regular CHKC rates. For further information about this after school program and all other events and programs on offer at Cubby House (including their scrumptious Saturday Cooking Classes) check out the website on: cubbyhousekidsclub.com email them at: cubbyhouse@cangguclub.com or give them a call: +62 85857222942 and discover the many reasons why it’s still Bali’s best Kids’Club!
PADI Women’s Dive Day 2016 was popular at AquaMarine Diving – Bali

All divers took the opportunity to get together friends and family members and were accompanied by a partner making it a true celebration – regardless of gender – for a fun day of diving! “I have been advocating for more female divers for more than a decade now”, said Annabel Thomas, owner and director of AquaMarine. “I was pleased that PADI introduced Women’s Dive Day in 2015 and I truly hope that this will bring more women to venture into the amazing

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton
Noella Roos: Painter of Dancers
mistakes. It either works or it doesn’t work. I can express lines on paper with chalk better than with a brush. With charcoal I can achieve more grey scales and more thin and thick lines, which makes drawings come alive. Would you categorize your work as modern? I don’t believe in a separation between modern and classical art. Art is always changing - new materials different fashions, different ideas. The one constant is that throughout art history, art has always been an expression of human beings. I don’t feel so much has changed between Michelangelo’s drawings and the works of video artist Bill Viola. Do you use props, backgrounds and special lighting? When I painted my series of Legong dancers, we worked with props. But in my new show it is more about the body, mind and feelings. I don’t use any props or even backgrounds. I’m not saying that white space is not important in my drawings. But I try to balance it. In my three new paintings on display in Vin+ you’ll notice different lighting in each. Light lends atmosphere. C/BT/G-17August 15
What is your exhibition Lines of Pleasure all about? I like to think of my drawings and paintings have a sensual touch. My work is not sexual but I work with dancer’s bodies to show feelings and emotions in two-dimensional space. For this exhibition I have drawn mostly men. I try to make my renderings lively. I try not to emulate photo realism. Life is more than just seeing. Life is also about feelings. What do you like best about your latest work? I’m really excited about the size of the drawings. My large paintings are more impressive when they are hanging in a gallery. My studio is too small to see them all together. I never did such large drawings before. I worked hard to get the drawings oriented in the same direction. When they are all hanging side by side, the drawings seem to dance together. Why do you choose dancers as subject? Noella Roos was born in Amsterdam and grew up in a small village in the northern part of Holland. She attended several prestigious art schools, including the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague, studying sculpture, theater décor design and painting. Noella has held exhibitions all over the world. She first visited Bali on holidays in 2004 and has now lived in Sanur for six years. An exhibition of Noella’s paintings and drawings Lines of Pleasure will open at Vin+ in Seminyak from August 26th to September 31st. Why did you become an artist? It was never a conscious decision. My parents are artists. I attended an art academy because I love art. After art school I had to start making a living, so I opened my own studio. It was only then that I made a real conscious choice to become a painter. What’s it like working as a female artist in an art world dominated by men? I never think of myself as a female artist, just as an artist. I’m always surprised when people think a man has created my drawings. I will never join a female artists group. I see no reason why we have to be identified as a male artist or a female artist. Why do we have to be separate? In the same way that men draw females very sensually, I use my female side to draw a man in a sensual way. In art history there are hardly any female artists painting male bodies in a sensual way. Gay artists create the most sensual drawings of men. But it is true. It is still a man’s art world, also in Indonesia. Time to change! What artist has had a big influence on you? That would be a long list! I like certain artists because of their technique, which changes throughout their careers. Andrea Del Sarto, Michelangelo, Titian and Rembrandt will always influence me, but also Rothko and Bill Viola. Which do you prefer, painting or drawing? I love to both paint and draw. It’s like having two children whom I love equally as much. Both work together. My concept is very simple. My art is a working process between artists – the dancer, the musician and the artist. I express the energy of these other artists on paper by painting and drawing. Why do you choose paper as your medium? I find paper is a very honest medium. You can’t correct
Dancers move, which makes drawings of them lively. I don’t work with posing models because they are fixed objects that don’t reveal feelings. I have no prior concept before starting work, but during the process of drawing I begin to bond with the dancer. I ask if he is happy, depressed, in love or just lost his love? Dancers express all those emotions in their dance and I use that energy in my drawing. I draw as quickly as the dancer dances. I have a strong connection with the dancer, a kind of wordless trance. Are there differences working with male and female dancers? Female dancers are usually softer and they dance rounder than male dancers. Male dancers can be graceful but their movements tend to be more sweeping and larger. This does not apply to the gay male dancer I work with now. He is more female then even my female models. With a male dancer you can also bring out seduction and attraction in the drawing, which I recognize because I’m a women. I like to work on the softer aspects of the male body. Not a macho type, but a Jesus who has come down from the cross. I find it beautiful to see a male dancer dance in his insecurities and in his pain. A man often is a symbol of strength but they are frequently as strong as they are soft. Everyone has two sides. With females I like to work on their strong side. Why is it important for an artist to learn figure drawing? For some it’s important, for others not. If you do abstract video art, then why would you? For me, however, humans make interesting subjects. Firstly, everyone is different. I like working with dancers because they don’t pose. You pose for a passport photo. Humans are more personal. Secondly, I like to work with dancers/models because they help me create. I capture impressions and feelings, which I then share on paper or canvas. Lastly, figure drawing is an easy way to learn how to create space and how to paint abstractly. As an example, Rembrandt is not only figurative but also very abstract.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch
C/HO/U-27 April 16
As a Visitor to Bali, how can I lessen my Impact on the Environment? Part II As an international traveler, you may or may not have considered that by just deciding to get on a plane, your carbon footprint has just got exponentially bigger because you will ǐy to your destination. Asides from the huge amount of fossil fuel that needs to be burned to transport you here, all the stuǎ you consume during your ǐight is 99% plastic and mostly disposable. So before you’ve even arrived, you’ve already made an impact. Aside from asking to use the same cup on the plane, there is little you can do to reduce your impact on the ǐight itself. To make less of a negative impact on your destination, you need to start with your accommodation. Try to choose a place that advertises their ‘concern’ for the environment: this could be through the way they reduce their trash (no plastic packaging, plastic straws, one-use plastic bottles etc), actively compost and garden, reduce water usage; or by having a CSR program that supports environmental or cultural projects (e.g. traditional gamelan and dance). After that, consider what you put in your bags. Pack a bunch of cloth bags (for a family you’ll need at least four or Ǐve) for shopping and carrying stuǎ around. Here you can avoid all those flimsy, single-use plastic bags that will rip within no time. Bring some Tupperware containers or a ti˥˨˩n carrier (rantang in Indonesian) for takeaways, doggy-bags or fruit and vegetable shopping (may need larger ones for this). Bring a reusable drink bottle to avoid all those one-use mineral water bottles that they give you at all the hotels and on all the tours. If your hotel doesn’t have those big water dispensers, as soon as you arrive shop for either one of these or, if your back’s not up to lifting one of those babies into your hotel room, buy several 6 liter ones (at least you’ll reduce the plastic use somewhat). Once you arrive at your accommodation, consider whether you need to take multiple showers and baths, remember to turn oǎ the tap while you’re brushing your teeth, and turn oǎ the lights and air-conditioning when you leave your room. If every visitor who came to Bali made this much eǎort, it would not only provide a positive example to locals but also make a diǎerence to future of this tiny fragile island.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE AUGUST 17 - AUGUST 31, 2016
The Full Moon begins the fortnight and promises to bring some unexpected occurrences. With Uranus harmoniously linked to the Moon in a sextile and the Sun through trine we are sure to get some inspiration and sudden surprises. Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius, the sign where this Full Moon falls and our theme continues around electric impulses, friends, groups, gatherings, humanitarian interests and technology. The Sun in Leo is diametrically opposed to the Moon always on Full Moon and is linked to Uranus in Aries, a fellow ˥˨˧re sign on this one and with this comes action and instigation. Mars is close to Saturn now and ˥˨˧nally moves into new degrees since its retrograde back in April. There may be important instructions received this fortnight which will mark the way forward for many of you and this could be a departure from the route on which you were travelling. Mercury is close to Jupiter and our thinking is precise and yet expansive. Venus in Virgo is trine or harmoniously linked to Pluto, the destroyer and reformer, and will bring some powerful interchanges on the romantic and partnership front. Remember that Venus is about all of the things that you value and love, not just people. The Sun will move into Virgo on the 23rd and Mercury is set to do another retrograde stint at the very end of the month for 3 ½ weeks and returning to mid degrees Virgo. It will then have two more contacts with Jupiter over the next weeks. FULL MOON 25 Aquarius 51 August 18, 2016 5:27 p.m.
This Full Moon highlights your need to be with friends and to be seen as your own individual self with your personal gifts and value acknowledged. Many of these are apparent in your work and choice of vocational endeavours. Partnership in these areas is sure to get a boast this fortnight and it is a good idea to take advantage of opportunistic situations even if they lead you to Ǐnalise some areas of your work life. I can’t highlight enough how much your particular ǐavour is required in the grand scheme of things and how important it is to express from your viewpoint at this time. Make travel plans this month.
You will be feeling especially close to your friends around the Full Moon and even a little romantically inclined with some. Perhaps it is a little gregarious and ǐirtatious time which promises interesting interactions. There is deep work in the home or with family and this is much more private and personal and often hidden away from the eyes of others, apart from those concerned. You are really mulling over things on your own in these private spaces or for some with their signiǏcant other. There are things in life which are just too personal to share with the World and you have this ability to censor your communication now.
Venus is in the area of romance and this is a good thing for Taurus natives as it pushes you to make decisions around key relationships and foreign connections. Endings are a part of this fortnight’s agenda although it may be in the mental realms that you need to change. That is your attitude or simply the way you think about things. It could be the end of the blame game for many or it may simply be time to move on, as hard as that can be sometimes. Your work and home axis is stimulated by the Full Moon and inspiration may strike in any given moment bringing profound change.
This fortnight oǎers you the opportunity to speak up powerfully about those things you believe in strongly yourself and in particular within the group setting. For some of you this will be in your business world and for all of you in your day to day work. There’s a certain sense of responsibility to share what you know as truth and to take action on it during this month. Communication is such a powerful tool and it is a good idea to use a little discernment and to plan things before oǎering them on a particular platform. Having said this however, opportunities will naturally arise for you to share.
There’s some very expansive thinking around this Full Moon and it’s a good idea to take advantage of it. It is a great time for investigative and deeply penetrating thought processes that will bring you into a new way of thinking about life. Being the adaptable person that you are, changing your belief system by questioning the current one is easier for you than most. The Moon itself is promoting movement for you both local and long distant and this could be for gatherings of varying purposes but more particularly to see friends. There’s some deep work going on in and around the home and leads back to Ǐnancial responsibility and the topic of sharing. The Full Moon is always a strong time for the Moon ruled sign of Cancer and this one in particular brings depth both within your relationship and Ǐnancial/ material Worlds, with the good news being that supportive Uranus is bringing much needed change to your career orientation. This is a powerful time for communication within your personal relationships and contracts or agreements may be reached through your business dealings. Your mental faculties are Ǐnally honed and you would be well advised to use them for the purposes of planning and discernment. Travel for work related responsibilities could eventuate through this month or once again foreign concerns vying for your attention. Its birthday time and the Full Moon promises to bring some fun and interesting connections with your multi cultural friends. Travel is a great time to re-invent yourself and to try things you’ve not dared to, previously. There is however a more serious tone to your relating and the possibility of making great headway when it comes to transforming your thinking and concern about them. Some of you may be ready for a stronger commitment that has arisen out of your romantic liaisons. You seem to be on a lucky streak when it comes to Ǐnances although it is still a good idea to apply practical thinking and planning. You already have a line of planets in your sign and this fortnight the Sun joins them. The really good news is that you have harmony between Pluto and the Virgo planets and this allows you the opportunity to really make those important changes now. Family issues or responsibilities could arise and they may mean travel for some of you. You will want to take action on these situations. This Full Moon is going to take you inwards and will bring the potential for emotional healing and self love. Your energy may feel electric and it could bring with it a strong desire for sexual intimacy and private interactions.
Mars joins with Saturn this fortnight in your sign and Ǐnally brings a little forward momentum, even if it is still in service to the family. You could if you want make those travel plans now, as it is the perfect time for planning. This Full Moon will make you more communicative then ever and will also bring with it some far reaching and far out ideas. Your children could surprise you with their plans or simply their self-expression at this time. There is a window of opportunity around the Full Moon to really get those Ǐnancial and business concerns into alignment and luck is on your side for their outcome.

C/BT/I-02 March 16
Pluto in your sign is harmoniously linked to Venus and you will be feeling quite settled within yourself and connected to the higher realms of existence with a practical sense of understanding. You could be feeling quite generous around the Full Moon at the beginning of the fortnight with some interesting ideas about your family and probably a good deal of appreciation for your ancestry. There are always surprises in store when Uranus shows up and it may bring with it a little windfall or abundance in one form or another. For you also, there are private and personal matters to be dealt with, but these are personal and kept close. This Full Moon is in Aquarius and places the Sun in the area of relationships. It will be a balancing act between personal time for your own interests and sharing time with your closest relationships. In fact, they will demand your attention and you could well be pulled in both directions as the need for communication with many people and in particular your friends, is ridiculously strong. Good will prevail and push you to deeper transformation within yourself as the need to really allocate and discern situations becomes paramount. Your thinking is clear, deep and insightful, if not intuitive. You feel the need to take action within your community.
C/BT/I-17 Feb 16
The Full Moon is in the area of solitude and aloneness within your chart and this is a little contradictory as it’s in that very social sign of Aquarius. There is work for you to do this fortnight and it is time to take action on your vocational interests. You have enough boldness to pull oǎ this next phase of your journey and in fact this is the time to create a new persona for the work that you do. There are powerful forces at work here, aligning you with the people that will be most beneǏcial in supporting the planning stages of this next endeavour. Strong female inǐuences are obviously at work and growth through communication apparent.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS PYRAMIDS IN SIGHT! Surely the builders of the ancient Egyptian pyramids had challenges, because even in 21st century Ubud, not everything has gone to plan. Our Pyramids of Chi, a series of pyramid-shaped structures that will host ancient sound healing, spiritual geometry and other spiritually-focused healing practices, are ¿nally nearing completion outside Kelapa Moding, north of the Ubud Palace. From “down the to millimeter” plans, and large segments created off site, to on site erection, everything has been tricky, says coordinator Peter McIntosh. “We are ¿nding answers to the construction of the ¿rst such prototype in the world, and hoping to open of¿cially in late September’” he said. Already the project’s spacious café is attracting lots of visitors, who pause to watch the erection of the pyramids and stay to sample some of the best coffee in Ubud, returning each day to check on progress. www.pyramidsofchi.com; +62 361 9000717. Drive north up Jalan Suweta; at Bentuyung turn left into the road to Jalan Moding. THE BEST NASI CAMPUR For readers who request tips for ¿nding great Balinese food, might I suggest you try “vegan” warung Prima, in Penestanan – possibly the best of Ubud’s healthy nasi campur? Prima is named after the founder and main chef, Ibu Made Primasadi, who opened four years ago to earn enough to cover travel expenses from her Denpasar home to her Raja Yoga Meditation Centre in Ubud. Originally offering only three small tables for eat-in visitors, Prima’s experiences on a meditation study trip to India last year inspired her to expand into a larger restaurant, staying open into the evening and serving dinner. Prima and her husband Sudiarsa offer more than a delicious nasi campur, their big hearted energy ¿lls the space, so much so that a friend said: “You can almost taste her good vibes in the food she makes.” Jalan Raya Penestanan just a little further out past Alchemy, on the other side of the road before the big dip. MERDEKA!!! Celebrating freedom as only they can, Indonesia’s adults, teens and children took to the street this week on August 17, for their Independence (Merdeka) Day. The national holiday commemorated 71 years of independence, with local Balinese holding many public events, including enthusiastic and sometimes really pro¿cient school marching teams, a free concert in the evening (they used their motorbikes as seats), and crazy competitions for children and adults on the football ¿eld on Jl Monkey Forest. Mark the date; come back next year and take part. It’s an absolute riot of a day, and a must – if only to watch those foolhardy men climb a giant, blackly greased palm tree trunk, to be the ¿rst to claim the prizes waiting at the top. TAKSU’S TENACITY PAYS OFF T h e f o u n d e r s o f Ta k s u restaurant and spa had a big vision, and I remember hearing some quiet chuckles and “They’ll never get it ¿nished” comments, in the 18 months before they opened for business at the southern end of Jalan Gautama.

Interestingly, Taksu’s management team are smart enough to value the occasional critical reviews they receive on social media as much as their 5-star reviews. “We value the platform they provide for guest feedback, since that gives us an insight into how we’re performing, and they alert us to any shortfalls and improvements we need to make,” says Taksu’s marketing manager Mark Adnum.

WRITERS FESTIVAL ON HORIZON This month, to the delight of Ubud Writers and Readers Festival fans, and lovers of literature everywhere, the festival are announcing the ¿rst round of writers for UWRF 2016, and offering their Early Bird tickets for sale. Award-winning Indonesian (Sydney-based) artist, book designer and art director, Evi O., has designed the newlyreleased poster for the October festival, with a bold, distinctive interpretation of this year’s powerful theme – Tat Tvam Asi – the Hindu philosophical belief that can be loosely translated as ‘we are one’ or ‘I am you, you are me’. In Indonesia’s changing political climate, its annual challenge for the festival directors to creat an event that dares ask questions around human rights and the human condition, the value of difference, and the forces shaping our lives, our borders, our environment, and our identity.

Perhaps get some dieting in now, or at the very least think about buying a couple of light pairs of pants with stretchy waists, because the Ubud Food Festival will be jam-packed with tasty treats – showcasing Indonesian food from the traditional to contemporary, authentic to modern-fusion. LUAR BIASA The word “extraordinary” – luar biasa in bahasa - is far too tame; it simply doesn’t capture the sense of the pursuit of the exotic and bizarrely original, that I found recently in designer furniture gallery, The Object, just south of Ubud. You’ll understand what I mean as you spot a psychedelic man riding a bicycle, two wooden horses riding tandem, and other pieces of zany sculpture, on the pavement outside the “off the planet” collection of designer, Pak Putu Pardika. Both the original store and a second much bigger studio are on the way to the Mas Clinic Hospital on Jalan Raya Mas; you can’t miss them. Perhaps some ideas are too bold for you or I to install at home, but they’re perfect for villas, resorts and hotels all over Europe. The Object; Jl. Raya Mas Ubud. Putu: 081 337 382 299.

of diversity. Being the majority race (Chinese) in Singapore and a minority in NYC has been fruitful in allowing me to plumb blindspots I might have had on either end of that spectrum and has hopefully, helped build more complexity into my writing.
Ministry of Moral Panic: Amanda Lee Koe joins the UWRF16 line-up In the 2014 winner of the Singapore Literature Prize for F i c t i o n , Ministry of Moral Panic, w r i t e r Amanda Lee Koe creates deliberate confrontation between her short story characters and the moral and ethical landscapes in which they live. Tackling issues of gender, sexuality and race, Ministry of Moral Panic is a reflection on a changing culture – one increasingly at odds with its public image and what lies beneath the surface. Ahead of her appearance in this year’s Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (26-30 October), Holly Reid chats to Amanda Lee Koe about inspiration, identity and the changing face of Singaporean literature. HR: In Ministry of Moral Panic, there are so many diverse characters whose stories you explore; an urbananthropologist posing as a Laundromat proprietor, a retired pop singer reunited with a lost love, a ladyboy in the form of Singapore’s most-celebrated mascot, the Merlion. Where do you find inspiration for these characters, and how do you step into their shoes? I would like to think that embodying a character is most true when it comes from a radical sort of empathy, and that once
that position is reached, the reader should be able to feel that the writing is giving rather than voyeuristic, open rather than closed (perhaps this is also true of acting at its best?). As to how that position is reached, I think it requires in equal parts curiosity, observation, imagination and extrapolation, all these things applied in a nuanced yet rigorous manner. HR: You grew up in Singapore, and now split your time between ‘home’ and New York City, two landscapes characterised by cultural complexity. To what extent do you find similarities between the two places, and how does that filter into some of the issues you explore in your writing? Moving between these bastions of late-capitalist cosmopolitanism it’s very easy to take a lot for granted. The density, the grid, the literal vertical-ness of both cities never escapes me-and with that the inevitable intersection of humans eking out wildly varying existences… The obsessive energy of both cities too, but in this regard Singapore’s energy feels much more adolescent: our energy is marked by a sort of prestige anxiety, whereas New York’s energy feels a lot more mature, relaxed into itself. There’s also, at once, that nice, oft-quoted idea of the “cultural melting pot”, but with it, also, the subtle and not-so-subtle classism and racism that can arise/be exacerbated by systemic inattention, socioeconomic inequality and the occasional/historic friction
HR: Appearing in the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival, one of the sessions you’ll be appearing in is centred on ‘identity’; where it comes from, what shapes it, how it evolves and grows. Stepping into the identities of your characters, to what extent do you think these are shaped by the norms of the societies they are living in? Are identities formed at the individual level, or how much of the national identity plays into this? Growing up in Singapore it always felt urgent and necessary for me to define myself against the norm-which is shaped by national identity-and whilst I am aware that that is also the mainstay of every angsty teenager there ever was, this has never changed for me. And it was not for the love of being different or standing out; it was only that within the system I felt that it was impossible for me to understand my place in it, and that I wanted none of the trajectories laid out for me. But in this sense, whether as myself or as a character, surely we enter into a Mobius strip: because whether or not identity can be said to be formed at the individual or national level, the fact of both coming into contact with the other, whether one goes along with it or attempts to thwart it means that on some level there must still be an inextricable interplay between the two. It’s the whole nature vs nurture debate. But in its most ancient iteration, in ancient Greek concepts, it was always referred to as nature and nurture: the two were seen as complementary, rather than dichotomous. HR: You’ve been widely praised as offering a ‘new voice’ to Singaporean literature; a deviation from traditional writing styles to something more contemporary, reflexive and bold. Can you see a broader shift beyond your own work toward this? Singapore’s literary fiction canon is still so young that it is sometimes hard to say if something is a broader shift or an individual’s voice at a specific time but I do see a move in fiction towards more varied concerns. We’ve had a strong social realist bent in fiction and that has evolved in more recent times to encompass, for example, stylistically, the more surreal, or content-wise, the more transnational.

When you consider that social media was originally designed as a way for people to connect online, it comes as no surprise that a few people have found a way to use this medium to highlight the stories of distinct groups of people, facing certain challenges and living conditions, be they homeless, cancer patients or refugees. In 2010, Brandon Stanton, a photographer living in New York City started a project taking pictures of people that he met randomly on the streets of the city. Stanton says on his website that his initial goal ‘ was to photograph 10,000 New Yorkers … and create an exhaustive catalogue of the city’s inhabitants.“ Stanton said, “Somewhere along the way, I began to interview my subjects in addition to photographing them. And alongside their portraits, I’d include quotes and short stories from their lives.” He established a blog, Humans of New York (HONY), with the photos he took and people’s stories, in the form of short interviews. The blog became wildly successful and now has 20 million followers. Stanton’s HONY Facebook page has over 17 million followers and his Instagram account over 5 million. In 2014, Stanton travelled to the Middle East, as part of an extended trip through 10 countries. He collected photos and stories for special series on people living in Iraq, Pakistan, Iran and other places. Stanton highlighted the issue of bonded-labor in Pakistan and held a crowd funding campaign that raised $2.3 million to help address the problem. Stanton has used his HONY platform to highlight Syrian Americans living in New York, refugees, prison inmates and pediatric cancer patients. Stanton says that in his special series of sub-cultures, he ‘focuses on speci¿c populations, examining their experiences and the challenges they face.” Stanton often combines fundraising with his special series: after his series on patients from the Pediatrics Department of the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, Stanton held a crowd funding campaign and raised $3.8 million for pediatric cancer research. Stanton has also published three New York Times bestselling books, Humans Of New York. Little Humans of New York and Humans of New York – Stories. In 2013, he was named as one of Time Magazine’s “30 Under 30 People Changing the World.” The success of Humans of New York has inspired other people around the world to set up similar documentary projects. Nicole Gray was inspired by HONY and set up a similar project in Australia, called New Humans of Australia, to focus on refuges and migrants who now call Australia home. She says on her website that she was “struck by the disconnect between real life stories and the stories that were being told by the mainstream media.” She decided to set up New Humans of Australia to get the stories of migrants and refugees out to the general public, to impact the debate in Australia around migrants and refugees in a positive way. Jessie Mawson, a social media specialist who wrote about New Humans of Australia on Amnesty International’s web-
site said, “Reading through these stories and photos, the thing that most struck me was the uniqueness of people often blobbed together as a homogenous group by the mainstream media.” She said, “Often, the real humans at the center of the debate, can be forgotten.” Nicole Gray said in a Sydney Morning Herald interview that she ‘hoped her site would encourage greater tolerance and understanding.’ “If you tell somebody’s story, you are introducing that person as a real person. I think that has enormous power,” she said. New Humans of Australia has almost 100,000 followers on Facebook. In Canada, artist Mikaël Theimer launched a project similar to HONY, documenting the people of Montreal. After a photo and story about a homeless man received a great deal of attention, Theimer decided to focus his attention on documenting the homeless in the city. His project is called Humans of the Street, and Theimer maintains it as blog on the site Tumblr. Theimer uses the same photo and short interview format as HONY and New Humans of Australia, although he posts in both English and French, in this dual-language city. Montreal has about 30,000 people living on the streets without access to regular housing. In an interview with The Huf¿ngton Post, Theimer said, “We want to make the ¿rst step between everyday people and homeless people. We want to break the ice, make them feel like friends.” He went on to say if people identi¿ed with the homeless men and women in his project, then “how can we stand to leave our friends in such living hell?” Theimer realized the impact that his project was having after he highlighted a homeless man with asthma who urgently needed inhalers to survive a summer heat wave. One of Theimer’s readers came forward and gave the man a box of inhalers, and posted a photo of the man with the inhalers online. The photo went viral. After this, Theimer started to post details about his subjects, such as their clothing size or medical needs, so that people might be able to reach out to the homeless subjects and help them.

“I think people want to help, but they don’t know how to,” Theimer said in a Mic interview. “In fact, more than just help, I think they want to connect with those people. “ Theimer hopes that his series will not only highlight the plight of those living on the streets in Montreal, but also encourage regular people to connect with them or help them. Theimer has also been able to use his project to successfully crowd fund for his subjects: he recently raised over CAD $6,000 on the Indigogo fundraising site to help a homeless man move into an apartment and get a job.

Food Glorious Food Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz)
By Ayu Spicy We had a can of Mexican s t y l e D i c e d Green Chilies and a can of tomato sauce that needed to be used. Adapting these to Red Bell Chili Cheese Soup from 2012 (http://baliadvertiser.biz/red_bell), we came up with an easier and even more delicious version. This soup keeps for several days and actually tastes even better when the flavors have had a chance to marry. Serve it with a green salad for a light meal or with a Fiesta Snapper supper (http://baliadvertiser.biz/snapper/).
The New Chili Ingredients:
– 1 fresh green chili, seeded and finely chopped – 1 tsp. salt – 150 gr. white cheese, finely chopped or coarsely grated such as cheddar, goat, mozzarella, or gouda - you want a cheese that will melt when the hot soup is poured over it – 1 Tbl. coriander leaf, coarsely chopped for garnish Directions: Heat the butter and olive oil in a large soup pot. When it’s hot add the chopped onion and stir fry for about two minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring until soft. Add the ground smoked paprika and stir to combine.
Now add the stock, tomato sauce, diced chilies, potatoes, roasted ground Cheese Soup green cumin, coriander leaf, chilies, and salt and Serves 4-5 bring to a boil. Turn the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring now and then.
– 1 1/2 Tbl. butter – 1 1/2 Tbl. olive oil – 1 1/2 yellow onions, chopped – 5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced – 2 tsp. ground smoked paprika – 3 1/2 cups vegetable stock – 1 8 oz. can (about 230 g) of good tomato sauce – 1 4 oz. (113g) can diced green chilies (I used Casa Fiesta brand from Dijon) – 2 small potatoes, skinned and coarsely chopped – 1/2 tsp. roasted ground cumin (roast in a dry frying pan until fragrant) – 1 Tbl. coriander leaf, chopped
In the meantime grate or chop the cheese and divide evenly between the individual soup bowls. Pour the simmering soup over the cheese, letting it melt on the bottom. Don’t be tempted to stir it – you want the melted cheese to be a bit of a surprise. Garnish each bowl with the remaining coriander leaves. All recipes are available on the Bali Advertiser website in both English and Indonesian versions. You can easily copy and paste and print. Paste as unformatted text.

Restaurant Review By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com
Down by the Riverside! River Café is an escape from the world. Whether you are a house guest at Maya Ubud or just dropping by for a relaxing hour or two, River Café is the place to be. After a stroll through the immaculate hotel grounds you come to the Campuhan; where the rivers meet. Your choice, use the stairs or the lift? Descending to the café, you are looking across one of the hotel’s many swimming pools, terrace style, just beyond that is the fast ǐowing small river that meanders through the unspoiled natural bush-land. It makes you feel as if you are on holidays, even if you are not. To return to your car use the hotel’s buggy. Let it transport you, noiselessly, back through the natural bush-land of the resort, to the car park. The food Ǐts the location perfectly. Australian Executive Chef, Kath Townsend, presents a healthy menu, using organic produce whenever possible, but one with interesting tastes. There are many vegetarian and gluten-free options. River Café is well known in Ubud, in fact dining there at lunch time can surprise you with the number of recognizable faces. First to arrive at the table is a large selection of raw vegetable strips, with a dip of lemon tahini [made from Ǐnely ground, so healthy, sesame seeds]. Not really my thing but whilst I nibble a few of them, a glass of true Balinese Jamu arrives! Now this is healthy and tasty! An amazing combination of tangerine, honey, lime, turmeric and cinnamon, I could keep drinking these all day! Start with the popular Vietnamese rice paper rolls [goi cuon], either stuǎed with prawn, nuoc cham dipping sauce or pure vegetarian with nuoc tuong. There are many healthy salads; Roast Pumpkin and Rocket [with ricotta, dukkah toasted seeds, roasted onions and an apple and cider dressing], Ricotta and Green Pea Gnudi [similar to gnocchi but made with sweet potato and coconut ǐour, so gluten free] served with mushroom ragu, herbs and parmesan. The riverside Salad Bowl contains a salad of seeds, tofu, tempe, spirulina and tahini dressing. A salad of green tea poached chicken & noodles, with mushrooms and a soy dressing is very diǎerent to what is found at other cafes. I thought that the Prawn Salad [pictured] was excellent. The prawns [shelled apart from the tails] were coated with organic red rice to give them taste and crunchiness, and the green mango and star fruit salad with its tamarind, honey and chilli dressing was a perfect match.
The Kumera and Tempe cakes with quinoa, coconut ǐour and tzatziki are very high Ǐbre and healthy, the soup of Quinoa and Vegetables is very high protein, the accompanying grilled sweet corn and chilli bread totally gluten-free. To remind you of an English Pub there is a Ploughman’s Lunch, a long baguette with ham, cheese, egg, pickles, salad and English salad cream. A touch of Thai with two Pad Thais [Thai rice noodles], a Vegetarian [with tofu, mushrooms and egg] or Prawn [with egg, tofu and sprouts], both arriving with the standard Thai accompaniments. There is a very International Steak & Rocket Sandwich [with balsamic onions, tomato and roasted garlic aioli] and a selection of Pizzas; Four cheese pizza with crushed pepper & chili ǐakes and pesto, gruyere, cream cheese, mozzarella, cheddar cheese, Sweet n’ Yellow, ripe pineapple, juicy ham, cheese & oregano or Hot & Red, dried Bali chili, spicy tomato, crisped bacon, blue cheese.

The Hot Stones dishes are very popular here. They are all served with a selection of seared vegetables [the longer you leave them on the hot stones, they more they are cooked] and a generous potato salad. The Sirloin Steak is teriyaki style with sweet ginger, or a meal on two sticks [pork sate with Balinese bumbu spices and an Indian spiced chicken kebab]. Seafood is Tuna with lemon pepper. As tuna is such a fragile Ǐsh [easily ruined by overcooking] best to immediately turn the Ǐllet over when it arrives, count to 10 and remove to your plate, and it will be cooked perfectly [just seared], leaving the vegetables to cook to your own taste. The desserts all champion local ingredients. The Carrot Cake is made with coconut ǐour and walnuts, the icing coconut cream and palm sugar, the Balinese Black Rice & Coconut Porridge is with a sweet orange glaze. The unique local salak fruit is in a spiced honey ǐan, gluten free. A great crumble consists of apple and guava, made dairy free topped with oats, cinnamon and quinoa. The cheesecake is dairy and glutenfree, made with cashews, coconut, agave syrup and lemon ǐavoured, topped with a raspberry crush, which for me was a perfect way to end an enjoyable meal. River Café is only just outside of the centre of Ubud, yet its natural setting of lush bush and ǐowing water stream sets it apart from the other dining alternatives in the area. It is a great spot to relax over an extended meal time. As it is adjacent to Maya Ubud’s famous spa, many combine the experiences.

Update Naughty Nuri has arrived in Kerobokan. It is found on Jln. Mertanadi, a long street that has seen many restaurants fail, but this one will be the exception. A sprawling relaxed garden setting [with a large car park behind] it bears zero resemblance to the original at Ubud from whom it has been oǑcially franchised [unlike some that continue to trade on the name, even though they now have no connection]. A walk through from the car park, peeking in the modern hotel-like kitchen, suggests just how diǎerent it is [even the toilets are 5 star]. The Ribs and Margaritas are 100% original but many other menu items have been added by that roving food consultant Roland Lickert who seems to be involved with many of the new Bali restaurants that work! The Ribs, pork of course, are Ǐrst marinated in Balinese spices then glazed with the special BBQ sauce whilst being slowly cooked over charcoal. The pork and chicken Satays are also marinated in that BBQ sauce before grilling. The Pork Buns [5 small ones per serve] are stuǎed with pulled pork that has been drenched in the sauce. Pork Paillard is a tenderloin of pork, there is also a Pork Chop on the menu. For something completely diǎerent try their Pork Stuǎers [pictured]! They are spring rolls, well tweaked, the crisp casing stuǎed with pulled pork drowning in BBQ sauce! There are many non-pork items on the menu as well. A monster Hamburger combines a double beef patty [250 gms] and double cheese, the Grilled Chicken Breast is with sambal matah, the sausage can be a Spanish Chorizo or German Bratwurst. Tong Seng is lamb curry. The Wings are a surprise as they are Ǐsh wings deep-fried to a crisp. With a range of salads and side dishes there is something for everybody. Plus those Martinis and Margaritas, served at the friendly bar or at the table. Busy from day one! Komugi Bakery operates a small café at the front of the Papaya Supermarket, Jln. Patih Jelantik, Kuta. For some unknown reason restaurants and cafes in supermarkets rarely work, but this one is an exception to that rule. Only product from the bakery is on sale [eat in or take away], there is no other kitchen, the seating is small and very basic, yet the place is always busy, and usually full. With almost everything for sale under Rp.20,000 it is perfect for that quick 5 minute lunch or any time snack. They feature Japanese breads and combinations that are most unusual. Perhaps the strangest is the Japanese Hamburger, a ham salad in a hamburger bun, a ham-burger! Another is their Sausage Croissant; a long sausage has multiple splits at each end and inserted in a croissant before baking, the result is squid-like tentacles protruding from both ends of the croissant, but very tasty, and often sold out! Flat and folded breads can contain many mixes; Bacon & Cheese, Bacon Corn & Mayonnaise, Sausage and Bacon. A slice of toast is topped with either Beef or Bacon and an egg. Japanese Obha topped with tuna or Takesumi, a Black bun stuǎed with pork, onion and nori seaweed. There are even ‘dessert’ options; Choco Turtles, Durian Pan, Banana & Cream Cheese and a Croissant stuǎed in a plastic cup with chocolate sauce. Whilst there are often a few Japanese amongst the customers most are locals, including many expats, who have all discovered the cheapest eat in town!

Saigon Saveurs serves very traditional Vietnamese. At the corner of Jln. Hanoman and Monkey Forest, as a part of the three restaurants in one Indochine II, it has introduced Vietnam’s classic Banh Mi to Bali. It is obviously a product of Vietnam’s French history as the ‘sandwich’ is served in a strip of split baguette rather than between two slices of bread as in English speaking countries. The freshly baked baguette is oǎered with a variety of Ǐllings including Lemongrass Chicken, Xuong Sausage or Pork Jerky, all are combined with chicken pate and served with Vietnamese pickles.
Umabumbu is a purpose-built food court. It is located on Jln. Supratman, Kesiman, half way between Tohpati and Denpasar. Behind a large secure car park is a massive bamboo rotunda, inside are many long tables and chairs obviously set up for large families and work groups. After the rotunda is a walkway, on either side of which are rows of small dining boxes, with on the ǐoor seating, above a waterway. From here you can feed your leftovers to the many goldǏsh beneath. Further on is the food court itself although you do not need to go there as waitresses in the 1st two sections will take your orders. Whilst the food court still has many unattended booths there is still quite a selection of regional food from Indonesia, including much Balinese [betutu, etc.] available. A large Chinese menu includes most basic dim sum items. The pricing is half way between traditional market street food and stand alone restaurants, so oǎers something a little bit diǎerent.
Habitat has got oǎ to a ǐying start. Open for less than 2 months, it is already one of Ubud’s most popular breakfast spots. It has always amazed me that though Ubud has always had a large number of cafes open for breakfast, some of which are very good, most remain empty. The few that do work all seem to be located at the Padang Tegal end of town. And Habitat is no exception as it is at the southern end of Jln, Monkey Forest, opp the big new banjar parking area [soon to become the new entrance to the Monkey Forest itself]. Unlike the other popular places [Kakiang and Monsieur Spoon] that rely on Croissants and pastries, Habitat oǎers western cooked breakfasts, some traditional, some with interesting variations. The Eggs Benedict and Florentine are served on German black rye toast, the Florentine with spinach and hash browns, the Benedict with cured salmon. The Breakfast Burrito combines scrambled egg with sausage, bacon, coriander, cheddar cheese and sweet chilli jam, rolled in a tortilla with watercress salad on the side. Their waǒes and pancakes are made using coconut milk, very diǎerent. For an anytime snack try their Corn Cakes, served with a spinach sauce, salsa and sour cream, very good! There are even some gluten free items on the menu and all are so marked. The very best news is that ALL of the breakfasts are available all day! Whilst there is cool air-con seating inside it is the covered terrace that always appears to be the most popular, with a western aspect there is no early morning sun, so quite cool.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia by Bill Dalton
Flavors of Indonesia Strikingly illustrated Flavors of Indonesia is a cookbook and cultural exploration that introduce readers to the vast culinary landscape of the world’s largest archipelago. Each region of Indonesia is home to a distinctive cuisine, many recipes of which can be traced back to the locale’s earliest history. Celebrated chef and Indonesian TV personality William Wongso retraces the religious and ethnic background behind Indonesia’s regional food. Starting with an overview of the culture surrounding food as well as sampling descriptions of Indonesian ingredients, Wongso takes us on an island by island culinary journey: Acehnese breakfast staples; the making of beef tongue sate and rendang from West Sumatra; the intricacies of ornamental Balinese banten offerings; the formal serving style of Padang restaurants; Minahasan-style porridge and Kombi Pig wrapped in tayapu tree bark; the process of making tempe; Mbah Lindu’s stall that has been selling gudeg at the same place in Yogya for more than 80 years; marinated mackerel fillet of West Halmahera; the preparing of Makassarese Palubasa beef soup; the signature rawon rice dish from Malang; Solonese serabi and colorful homemade Javanese jajan pasar traditional snacks. Wongso is a household name in Indonesia; well known for his popular TV show William Wongso’s Culinary Adventures. Under the old school tutelage of German and French chefs, his pursuit to master his home country’s traditional cuisines began in 1972 with the opening of a bakery in downtown Jakarta. Who but a mature native Indonesian would know that consuming bean sprouts will help boost fertility, that Belimbing fruit is used to remove stains from cloth and tarnish from brass, that washing your face with coconut water every night will prevent ageing lines, that miniature cars are made from the skin of the Pomelo fruit and that Acehnese war hero Tjut Nyak Din carried protein-rich dried bonito fish flakes into battles against the Dutch? It’s no wonder this writer is so passionate about cooking. The love of food runs in his family. Wongso was raised in Surabaya, a city with venerable culinary traditions, where he grew up in a family steeped in both Chinese heritage and that of the East Javanese and where his mainland Chinese-born father and grandmother busily prepared homemade condiments, minced meats for Kuo Tie (fried dumplings) and xiu long bao (steamed buns). The book particularly excels in its coverage of Indonesia’s vast and colorful food culture and the ceremonies, traditions and rituals that surround food. Experts on Indonesian cuisines - from humble villagers to international chefs served as his consultants. Among the book’s revelations: *Though the quintessential tastes of Indonesia are subtle, complex and elegant, the cuisines are actually largely based on a peasant tradition and do not originate from ceremonial court dishes as is the case in China and Thailand. Wongso touches only lightly upon the royal cuisines of Java. *Rijstaffel, known for the abundance and variety of its dishes served by a line of waiters, is not actually an Indonesian cuisine. It’s rather more usually prepared to impress foreign visitors. Generally, the dishes lack authenticity and flavor. *Like the Cantonese who travel and settle overseas to open Cantonese restaurants everywhere, Padang restaurants are so widespread in Indonesia because of the entrepreneurial character of the hardworking Minangkabau people of West Sumatra. *The book contains a prodigious amount of facts, figures and trivia. *The crackling sound of krupuk (nut, shrimp and
flour crackers) is said to stimulate the appetite and add to the fun of eating. *Indonesia produces 75% of the word’s nutmeg. *Because of its antioxidant properties, the spice Andaliman in Batak dishes lengthens the life of food. *Food wrapped in Pandanus leaves will also preserve the flavor longer. *Chewing lemongrass keeps teeth and gums strong. *Torch ginger reduces unpleasant body odor. *When the ceremonial volcano-shaped Nasi Tumpeng is presented for birthday celebrations, selamatan commemorations and religious and corporate events, the tip of the fragrant yellow rice cone should be neatly cut off and offered to the guest of honor. The book is a photographic tour de force of Indonesia’s wide diversity of regional foods, including images taken during Wongso’s long career as professional baker, consultant in a French bistro: the batik-shirted maestro examining produce and sniffing spices in Jambi and Bangka; turning a pig on a spit; visiting traditional markets in Lombok and Sulawesi. Images show vendors cutting up nangka; overflowing baskets of rice; bulging bags of krupuk, flour and beans; banquet layouts; lamp-lit foodstalls dispensing nasi bungkus and kapau style lunches, goat meat sizzling in woks and all manner of grilled satay; huge blocks of asam jawa and palm sugar in Makassar; the spice paste stalls of Bukittinggi and piles of giant young nangka in a Yogya market. A two-page map identifies the place of origin of the most important spices and ingredients in Indonesian cooking. While chili, shallot, garlic, pepper, ginger, turmeric, coriander, galangal and lemongrass are commonly used throughout all regions of the country, other spices are indigenous to only certain areas and are a part of only that region’s specialties: Pelawan wild mushroom of West Sumatra; Kluwak nuts from East Java; foxtail Millet and sour eggplant from Kalimantan. It’s interesting to note that North Sumatra cooking uses more spices than is the case in eastern Indonesia due to Indian and Arab spices traders bringing spices to the region centuries ago.

The recipe section takes up only 70 pages of 198 pages, obviously barely touching the diversity of the country’s dishes. However, the 30 authentic recipes are the country’s best-known regional specialties and are synonymous with the Indonesian archipelago. The detailed descriptions of the most widely used ingredients, spices and techniques are designed for preparation in modern kitchens. Flavors of Indonesia is an excellent introduction to Indonesian food, combining culinary culture with iconic and tantalizingly photographed recipes. The author’s profound knowledge and understanding of Indonesia’s authentic food customs and traditions were garnered from a career spanning 35 years. This cookbook makes enjoyable reading for professionals, aspiring home chefs and anyone with a keen interest to learn, understand and prepare one of the world’s most vibrant cuisines. Flavors of Indonesia, Bab Publishing 2016, ISBN 978-979892-6327, hardcover with dust jacket, 198 pages, bibliography, index, dimensions 21.5x23.5 cm.

Bali is famous for live music and in particular jazz. Talented artists from all over Indonesia and beyond will gather at these beautiful gardens to celebrate another year of jazz. In fact this festival is in its 6th year and promises to be the best yet. ‘Clothing the nation’ is the cultural theme underpinning this year’s event. It is certainly appropriate with Indonesia’s famous fabrics and textiles with patterns and designs that are unique and creative. As with all festivals on the island there really is something for everyone. Local arts and crafts will be on sale together with plenty of food stalls with delicious tastes from Bali and beyond. Culture is the theme of this festival and Indonesian food, textiles and culture are what make this country so vibrant and inviting.

If you haven’t visited Taman Bhagawan or the jazz festival, they are combined to attract a super large audience and for visitors to enjoy some of Bali’s best music in serene gardens.

Themed parties and coloured parties are annual events on the Bali calendar particularly in the high season. This is the second annual Nikki Beach White party which as it name suggests is all about white. The concept originated on 24 May 2003 at Nikki Beach, Saint Tropez when Naomi Campbell decided to celebrate her birthday with an all white dress code. Following in this tradition the dress code is white which is compulsory. The age is also 21+. Be prepared to mingle with the glamour and glitz of the high society scene in Bali at one of Bali’s top high season parties.

La Sicilia 2nd Floor Grand Opening Party When you hear of a restaurant expanding you just know they are doing well. I have attended a few venues where expansion has changed the ambience beyond recognition but understand the need to house more guests. La Sicilia is swinging on its success with a journey back to the 1920’s in that bygone era when prohibition was underway; speakeasies became popular with late night jazz and dancing until the wee hours of the morning. It may be worth finding an outfit of that era to transport you back in time to play that part. When : 10 pm – 4 pm Where : La Sicilia, Jl Oberoi, Kerobokan Contact : www.lasicilliabali.com
Legian Beach Festival (26 – 29 August) August is a popular month for festivals and in many cities around the world it is common to have a few festivals running side by side. Bali is no exception. Spanning a 700 metre section of Legian beach a host of activities are planned including beach clean ups, sports, a battle of the bands, bartending competitions and over 100 stands promoting businesses and selling products. This part of Bali certainly has some amazingly talented bartenders. Legian Beach festival is guaranteed fun and draws a huge crowd. Definitely worth a visit!

Lines of Pleasure (26 August – 31 September) Noella Roos has made a name for herself as an artist in Bali and it is no wonder with her skills and attention to the finest details. Her drawings demonstrate the true depths of her talents and BA readers are invited to one of her exhibitions coming up soon. The exhibition will feature 13 drawings and 3 big paintings about movement and dance. There is a lot to learn about Noella Roos and her resume reveals a lot of information which you can find at the website below. Noella is a true inspiration especially to budding artists and BA readers will enjoy her latest creations.

Merah Putih Party (19 August)
C/E/I-17 August 16
Sanur Village Festival (24 – 28 August) As I mentioned previously several festivals are taking place in the month of August and the Sanur Village Festival (SVF) is one of the most popular and well planned. Tat Twam Asi is the theme of this year’s festival originating from a moral Hindu phrase meaning ‘I am You, You are Me’. Empathy, solidarity and equality in the family, village, province and country are promoted through this theme. It is the 11th SVF and it is going to be just as good if not better than the previous 10. A bazaar, body painting, musical performances, a beach cleaning operation, reforestation information, baby turtle releasing, surfing competitions, traditional jukung sailing competitions, fruit and ice cutting, cultural parades, a fishing tournament, a photo competition and golf tournament are just some of the activities visitors will enjoy. The list is long but not complete. There is much more to ensure visitors have a superb time. It is great to see more environmental focuses happening but surely by now citizens and visitors to this stunning island have stopped littering. Perhaps a bit more education is needed but it is great to see efforts being made to keep Bali beautiful. It coincides with the Legian festival so once you have browsed the Legian festival pop over to the SFV for more entertainment and fun activities and feel a real part of the Bali community which brings locals, expatriates and tourists together in a festive spirit!

White Party (20 August) Ku De Ta knows how to throw a party and this is their annual white party and the exciting part to begin with is the dress code. Not just white it is enchanted lovers, fairy kings and queens, forest elves and mischievous pixies. A bit like the Enchanted Wood and the Magic Faraway Tree where many magical adventures happen and interesting characters are encountered. That’s exactly what this is going to be like when you enter the magical kingdom of Ku De Ta and meet characters that haven’t even been a part of your imagination. ‘A Midsummer ’s Night Dream’ is the theme for this party.

The Frugal Balinist *Food tips. Carrot season: big beautiful specimens Rp15,000/ *Money tips: The growing domestic market has made
kg. *At Bali’s popular beachside restaurant center of Jimbaran Beach, choose the seafood “dinner packet” (paket dinner promo) that will ensure plenty of food at an affordable price (Rp100,000 to Rp300,00) to easily feed 2-4 people. *Best Ubud take out restaurants: Black Beach (tel. 971-353); Taco Casa (hp 081-224-222-357); Fly Cafe (tel. 975 440); Pizza Bagus (tel. 978-520)). *Kacang hijau (mung bean): This small, green legume, in the same plant family as peas and lentils, is an extremely high source of protein, ¿ber, antioxidants and phytonutrients. In Bali, they are sold (Rp10,000/500 gr packet, Rp20,000/kg) as a popular dessert snack and mung bean paste is a common ¿lling of pastries. *Sanur’s Warung Nasi Ibu Weti (Jl. Segara Ayu) has one of the cheapest and most authentic nasi campur in Bali, but they are sold out 1-2 hours after opening at 8 am. *Borborygmus, or stomach gurgling, is the sound of half-digested food, gas and stomach acid churning around. *Fresh ¿sh have clear eyes (mata bening); yesterday’s ¿sh have cloudy eyes (ikan sudah lama). *Padang restaurants offer fast service and deliver a great variety of dishes to the table; only what is eaten is paid for and the sauces are free. *Sate (skewered bits of meat) is an economical way to serve chicken, beef, pork or goat; it originated as way to use meat so that there would be no waste. *Save time and money by buying snacks, meat, spices and fresh vegetables from vendors on motorcycles (tukang sayur keliling) who cruise Bali’s urban neighborhoods at 6 am, 8 am and 12 pm.
Balinese businesses more sensitive in pricing products, services and food in order to attract and retain Indonesian travelers. For the cheapest prices, look for parking lots ¿lled with vehicles bearing license plates from places outside Bali. Balinese number plates begin with DK; Jakarta with B, Surabaya’s with L. *No cheaper accommodations or restaurants exist on Bali than those that PRC visitors patronize. Although Chinese tourists account for an astounding 21% of tourists to Bali, they are notorious for how little money they spend. *Boarding houses (kos) don’t charge tax or other service charges, which means that if renters pay a monthly rent of Rp3 million, the cost is around Rp100,000 per day. *Indonesian housewives buy gold bars at the gold shops along Jl. Sulawesi (such as the big Gallery Kohinoor Gold Shop, Jl. Sulawesi 106-108) as a hedge against the fall in the rupiah. Particularly popular investments are 100-gram 99.99% pure gold bars. *Gali lubang, tutup lubang. Dig a hole to ¿ll another hole or pay a debt by incurring a new debt. What happens when your earnings barely cover living expenses and you must borrow money from friends, family, bank or employee cooperative (kooperasi). *He who doesn’t economize will agonize.
*Service tips: Auto shops specializing in old cars: Harry
Motor, Jl. Camplung Tanduk (Dhyana Pura) in Seminyak and Dwi Jaya Motor, Jl. Raya Sesetan 136 in Denpasar. *Parking in Kuta costs Rp10,000 in big parking lots or on side roads while all night parking is Rp40,000. *Ditch your expensive satellite service (up to Rp440,000/month) and instead hook up a Rp100,000 antenna to get free local English language channels Global TV and Trans TV as well as a lot of English programming on TV One, Metro TV and MNC, saving you more than Rp5 million per year. *What better deal is there than sending a 17 gram letter from Bali to the USA by traceable registered post for Rp41,853 so your missive is sure to get there? *Whenever a service man (electrician, Satellite TV or Internet service provider technician) visits your home, get his personal mobile number - much better than calling the main of¿ce.
*Cheap nutritious dog food: The cheapest way to feed your dog is to buy leher ayam (chicken parts) at traditional markets. For only Rp10,000 to Rp15,000 (depending upon where you live in Bali) about 1 or 2 kilos are loaded into plastic bags. Boil the parts in salty water and then mix with rice and food leftovers and sauces. Far less expensive than cans of Pedigree (Rp35,000/700 gr; Rp24,000 for a smaller can).
*Tech tips: To talk free to other mac users, Facetalk doesn’t require a deposit like Skype does. *Instead of using plastic from trash bags for your kite, ask for lighter, more earth-friendly kertas layang-layang (special kite paper) at traditional markets Rp2500/sheet. *WhatsApp instant messaging app allows smartphone users to exchange text, image, video and audio messages for free without the deposit that Skype requires. *Tofu types: Tofu (tahu), made by both Javanese and
Balinese, is sold in Bali’s traditional markets. Buy it early while tofu is still fresh and warm. Though Balinese tofu (Rp10,000/ ten blocks) costs half the price of Javanese tofu, it has more texture and is only good when fresh. Tastier and more
*Household tips: For bloodstains, pour peroxide on a cloth and rub it into the stain until it’s gone. *Sharp, strong stainless steel Aes professional kitchen scissors with wide ¿nger grips are great for cutting, meat, bone, plastic and cost only Rp15,000 at Papaya’s in Kuta. Woven bamboo from sustainable bamboo plantations is an inexpensive alternative to expensive hardwood Àoors.
*Shopping tips: *On August 17th, look for (and always ask about) Independence Day (Hari Kemerdekaan) discounts available at both online and bricks and mortar businesses on hotel rooms, electronics, airline Àights, clothing, shoes, car and home purchases, cafe and restaurants and department stores. *When shopping always go with a Balinese; point out what you want and then disappear and let him or her do the negotiating. *The building supply stores Mitra 10 and Depot Bangunan are cheaper than Ace Hardware. * Toko Senyum, with two locations at Jl. Sriwedari 12 and Jl. Raya Nyuhkuning (in front of BCC) in Ubud, sells second-hand clothes, books and household goods at bargain prices. *Support local small businesses instead of giant supermarkets and corporations.
illegal by the Bali’s governor and the transportation of¿ce, continues to operate openly in the island’s capital and openly advertises its service on large street side billboards. UBER and GoCar also continue to operate in Bali despite being banned. *If you board buses and angkota on the main street outside bus terminals, it is faster than waiting for buses to ¿ll inside the terminal. * Take your scooter on the slow boat from Padang Bali to Lombok (around Rp110,000) and then all the way to much less expensive Sumbawa and Flores, but check the rental contract ¿rst to see if it’s OK to take the bike outside of Bali.
*Consumer be aware: Because of their reluctance to buy more expensive steel kitchenware, the Balinese routinely cook everything in aluminum pots and pans. The vast majority of warung and many restaurants also regularly refreeze food (such as chicken nuggets and French Fries) that they don’t sell that day. Don’t ever think that used but still edible food is going to be thrown away. Food is refrozen over and over again until it’s gone. If buying chicken in a traditional market, frozen meat is wet and white but fresh meat is red and drier. Early mornings offer a lot more choice in traditional markets. *LifeStraw pointof-use water ¿lter. This portable water filter effectively r e m o v e s 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria and parasites that cause common diarrheal diseases and reduces turbidity by ¿ltering particles of approximately 0.2 microns. The device does not require electrical power, batteries or spare parts, contains no chemicals and can be carried around for easy access to safe and clean water. As it is not suitable for household use, Lifestraw with its high Àow rate can save money for people who travel often and can be used almost anywhere on biking trips, hiking, road trips and emergency situations. Simply place LifeStraw in water and sip through the mouthpiece to have instant access to safe and clean drinking water. Available for Rp350,000/unit at Kopernik’s Tech Kiosk, Jl. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud, tel. 0361-977-233; hours 9 am - 5 pm Mon.-Friday.
*Credit card theft: The Indonesian Consumers Foundation (YLKI) is charged with protecting consumers against credit card theft, but this is dif¿cult to stop. An article in July issue of Tempo reported that thieves buy ¿lled out credit card application forms and documents containing phone numbers, ID card photocopies and other personal information of customers from corrupt bank personnel. Banks outsource their service personnel because banks do not categorize customer data forms as highly con¿dential. This is a big security risk. The three-digit secret numbers behind credit cards sometimes also get copied. These forms, both originals and photocopies, are sold for Rp12,000-15,000. Using data from the applications, ID cards are forged. The forged cards then used to replace the phone cards. Online transactions can then be made by inserting the cards in cell phones, enabling the thieves to respond correctly to veri¿cation information required for online transactions. So if you ever fill out and deliver a credit application form, it’s imperative that your bank keep them protected and secure, regardless of whether your bank outsources their personnel or not.
*Transport tips: Pak Muka (hp 081-2391-9682) rents Toyota professionally made Javanese tofu (Rp10,000/12 blocks) is firm and can be marinated with palm sugar, garlic and coriander, then baked, fried or boiled to make sweet bacem tofu. Yellow Japanese egg tofu (tahu telur) costs Rp4000Rp6000 each. Supermarkets sell soft Lombok tofu (made in Bali) for Rp1000/block which is best fried to make tahu krispy.
AGYA cars for only Rp3,000,000 per month. *Turn a visa run into a longer trip. With a little Àexibility and planning ahead, Air Asia will get you from Bali to many interesting places extremely cheaply. Flying is so easy and affordable today that living in a base–particularly during a time of personal transition–isn’t necessarily the way to go. *Grab Taxi, declared

Local News Women’s Commission Pleads for Mercy for Death-Row Inmate Merry Utami The National Commission on Violence Against Women, or Komnas Perempuan, appealed to President Joko Widodo on Tuesday (26/07) to postpone the execution of Merry Utami - a convicted drug-trafficker now on death row. Merry, 42, one of the death-row inmates scheduled for a third round of executions by the Indonesian government, was moved from the Tangerang Women’s Prison to the notorious Nusakambangan prison island on Sunday morning. Merry was sentenced to death in 2003, after being arrested at the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport and charged with possession of 1.1 kilograms of heroin. The commission’s chairwoman, Azriana R.M said it had sent a letter to President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo on Tuesday morning urging a stay of Merry’s execution until a clemency decision is announced. In the letter, the commission said it fully supports the government’s effort to fight drug abuse but rejects the death penalty for people who have been coerced into smuggling drugs by human trafficking syndicates. “The government needs to consider clemency for Merry. She is a victim of domestic violence and human trafficking. The state should not execute innocent people,” said Azriana during a press briefing in Jakarta on Tuesday. In 2001, having divorced a man who forced her to become a migrant worker in Taiwan, Merry began a relationship with
a man named Jerry. After three months the two traveled to Nepal. After three days, Jerry headed to Jakarta for a business trip and asked Merry to join him one day later as there were some items he needed her to bring from Nepal. “Merry was told to bring a new handbag to be sold at the Tanah Abang market. She complained that the bag was unusually heavy, but she was told that was normal since it was an expensive bag,” said Komnas Perempuan commissioner Adriana Venny. The Tangerang High Court rejected Merry’s appeal in 2002. In 2014, the Supreme Court refused to annul her death sentence. Adriana said Merry and her lawyers are still in the process of requesting a pardon from President Jokowi as the copy of the 2014 Supreme Court ruling was delivered only days before Merry was moved to Nusakambangan Prison. In 2015, despite repeated pleas for mercy from foreign governments and international organizations, Indonesia executed 14 people for drug trafficking - among them citizens of Australia, Brazil, the Netherlands and Nigeria. Only Mary Jane Veloso of the Philippines received a stay of execution last year after a woman, who allegedly planted drugs in Veloso’s luggage, gave herself up to that country’s police. Veloso will not be in the next round of executions. (July 27th 2016)
Three Nigerians Among Four Executed in Indonesia, Ten Cases Postponed Indonesia executed four convicted drug traffickers, including three Nigerians, early on Friday (29/7) as it pushed ahead with its “war against drugs”, although another 10 scheduled executions were delayed. As many as 14 people were originally set to face the firing squad together on Friday, but officials decided a “comprehensive review” was needed to “avoid any mistake” in the 10 cases, Attorney General H. Muhammad Prasetyo said. The date for the next round of executions has not been set, Prasetyo told reporters in Jakarta.
offenders, just over a year ago, causing diplomatic outrage. Rights activists and governments have again called on Indonesia to abolish the death penalty. Those calls have gone unheeded and President Joko Widodo has said drugs pose as serious a threat as terrorism in what is one of Southeast Asia’s biggest markets for narcotics. The president’s office often cites figures that drugs are killing at least 40 people a day, but several international experts have questioned the methodology used to arrive at those statistics.
At least two prisoners among that group of 10, a Pakistani national and an Indonesian woman, have applied for presidential clemency, their representatives said. They said legal proceedings could take a long time.
The death penalty is widely accepted by the Indonesian public, but police had to break up a protest outside the prison on Thursday by members of a migrant workers group who called for mercy for the Indonesian woman who was scheduled to be executed.
Those executed - three Nigerians and an Indonesian man - were shot during a thunderstorm shortly after midnight on Nusakambangan Island in Central Java. The government ignored international calls for clemency and pushed ahead with its drive against narcotics.
Amnesty International called the latest executions “a deplorable act that violates international and Indonesian law” and pleaded that the other death sentences not be carried out.
“Our battle against drug crimes is not over and it will continue. We will maintain our commitment, our firmness and our consistency,” Prasetyo said.
Around 152 people remain on death row in Indonesia, including convicted drug traffickers from the Philippines, France and Britain, according to the Attorney General’s Office.
Indonesia has become a “business field” for the production, distribution, import and export of drugs, Prasetyo said. Indonesia executed 14 prisoners’ mostly foreign drugs
Authorities plan to execute 16 prisoners this year and more than double that number in 2017. (July 29th 2016)
Plot to hit Singapore’s Marina Bay with Rocket from Batam Foiled Indonesian authorities have arrested six terror suspects, including the group leader who had plans to fire a rocket from Batam in an attack on Singapore’s Marina Bay. The men, aged between 19 and 46, were arrested at various locations across Batam. A stash of weapons was found at one of the locations, a housing complex, according to Indonesian media reports. The six were allegedly from terrorist group KGR@Katibah GR - whose ringleader Gigih Rahmat Dewa, 31, is said to be behind the plot to attack Marina Bay. “Yes, there were indeed plans for the attack. But the plans did not materialize,” Indonesian national police spokesperson Boy Rafli Amar was quoted in reports as saying. The plan to fire the rocket missile from Batam was hatched with the help of Bahrun Naim, an Indonesian fighting for Islamic State in Syria, reports said. Bahrun is believed to be one of the masterminds of an attack in January in central Jakarta, in which eight people were killed including the four attackers. Gigih Rahmat is suspected of receiving and channeling funds for radical activities sourced from Bahrun. Boy Rafli said police had yet to determine the motive behind the plot or when the suspects were planning to launch the attack with rocket missiles - evidence of which has not been found. The suspects are currently being investigated at special counter-terrorism squad Densus 88’s headquarters for their involvement in Islamic State’s Indonesian terror network. In response to media queries, Singapore’s Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said it is aware of the attack plan and has been working with the Indonesian authorities since the discovery of the plot. The Singapore police and other agencies have stepped up inland and border security measures in response to this threat and the “prevailing security situation”, MHA added. “This development highlights the seriousness of the terrorism threat to Singapore, and the importance of the SGSecure national movement. The public is advised to remain vigilant.” (August 5th 2016) Indonesian Court Mulls Gay Sex Ban Indonesia’s Constitutional Court is considering making gay sex a crime, with Islamic activists pushing for the change insisting Thursday the homosexual community was causing “moral degradation” in the Muslim-majority nation. The move comes after the gay community in Indonesia began coming under sustained attack earlier this year, with ministers and religious leaders denouncing homosexuality and LGBT websites blocked. The court is hearing a judicial review filed by Islamic activist group the Family Love Alliance that seeks to alter the criminal code to ban homosexual sex. “We see the moral degradation that is happening,” Rita Hendrawaty Soebagio, chairwoman of the alliance, told AFP. “This is purely because of our love for our nation, we must do something while we have a chance.” Her group argues that the influence of the gay community has been spreading, particularly since the United States legalised same-sex marriage nationwide last year, which activists believe triggered the backlash. Under current laws, sex is only illegal for both homosexual and heterosexual people if it involves a minor. The judicial review was filed in May and the court has held five hearings, including one this week, in which it heard from expert witnesses. The next hearing is due later this month but it is not yet known when a ruling will be handed down. The court said on its website that it was hearing the case and that testimony from health experts included claims that gay sex could cause sexually transmitted diseases. Gay sex remains legal in most of Indonesia although homosexuality is generally taboo. A small number of provinces in the country, where power is heavily decentralized, have passed Islamic-inspired laws against homosexual sex. Indonesia’s current laws on homosexuality are more liberal than some of its neighbors. In Singapore sex between men remains illegal, a holdover from colonial rule that is not strictly enforced. In Malaysia sodomy is a criminal offence and can result in imprisonment, corporal punishment, and fines. (August 6th 2016)

Schapelle Corby Eyeing the Gold Coast for 2017 Convicted drug-smuggler Schapelle Corby could enjoy hassle-free employment when she returns to the Gold Coast next year from Bali, where she has spent almost a decade behind bars. Her sister Mercedes Corby has quietly moved back to Australia after spending more than a decade leading a lifestyle in Bali to be closer to her sibling, and is opening a tapas bar on the Gold Coast. With Schapelle due to finish her parole in Bali and return home in the next 12 months, working in the bar could be just what she needs to stay busy. Schapelle served nine years behind bars in Kerobokan Prison after she was caught with 4.2 kilograms of cannabis in her body board bag in October 2004. She was released from jail in February 2014. Mercedes returned with her three children, Wayan, 17, Nyeleigh, 15, and 9-yearold Nyoman after splitting with her Balinese husband Wayan Widyartha. The 42-year-old has teamed up with former professional surfer Trudy Todd to open up a lavish tapas restaurant called Laneway Bar and Dining in Coolangatta. MNC Land and Trump Hotels to Build Resorts in West Java and Bali MNC Land, the property arm of Indonesia’s MNC Group, has confirmed it will build two new resorts in Lido, West Java, and Tanah Lot, Bali, in partnership with real estate mogul and US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. The $500 million resort and theme park in Lido will be the country’s first integrated lifestyle resort, which included two hotels, a golf course and a high-end residential complex. The 3,000-hectare project is expected to boost the company’s earnings in the next few years. MNC Land tripled its profit to Rp 606 billion ($46 million) in the first six months of this year. “Our outstanding performance was boosted by several ongoing projects, which we are optimistic will be completed on schedule,” said the group’s CEO, Hary Tanoesoedibjo, in the statement. The Trump Organization will be the operator of the Lido project and the 108-hectare six-star complex of hotel, luxury villa, apartments and retail outlets called the Nirwana Resort in Tanah Lot, Bali. The Trump Organization is privately held by Donald J. Trump, the Republican Party’s nominee in this year’s US presidential election, and serves as the principal holding for Trump’s other business ventures and investments. During the campaign for his nomination, Trump earned notoriety by making many derogatory remarks regarding Islam, immigrants and women, causing a stir online and offline. (August 2nd 2016) Grace Jones Set to Play a Special Show in Bali Legendary music icon Grace Jones is set to hit the stage at Potato Head Beach Club Bali on October 8 in her first-ever show in Indonesia. According to a media release from Potato Head, the special set will give fans “access to an unrivaled, intimate experience with the art-pop pioneer.” Known for her boundary-breaking new wave and post-disco music, Jones first rose to prominence in the international art and pop culture scene in the 1970s. The Jamaican-born one-woman wonder - who started out as a model for the likes of Yves Saint Laurent and Kenzo Takada - became popular in the 1980s for such albums as “Warm Leatherette,” “Nightclubbing” and “Slave to the Rhythm.” She is also recognized for her roles in cult films like “Conan the Destroyer” and the James Bond installment, “A View to a Kill.” Jones’s concert comes on the heels of another international showcase at Potato Head Beach Club Bali - namely the Sunny Side Up Tropical Festival this
August, which will be headlined by Disclosure and Mark Ronson. Early-bird tickets to Grace Jones’s show start from Rp 1.8 million and can now be purchased online at ticketbase.com. (August 2nd 2016) Flights Diverted as Ash Three Volcanoes Erupt in Indonesia Holidaymakers have been warned volcanic ash is affecting flights to and from Bali. A number of flights between Australia and Bali have been cancelled after Mount Rinjani in Lombok erupted on Monday (1/8) sparking safety concerns. Virgin fights from Brisbane and Sydney were forced to turn around. Tiger flights from Perth, Melbourne and Adelaide have been cancelled, ABC News reported. Perth Airport tweeted on Monday afternoon that flights to and from Bali have been impacted by volcanic activity. ‘Passengers traveling to Bali should check with their airline for updates,’ the airport said. Virgin said on Twitter: ‘Safety is our number one priority and we are working to have guests on their way as quickly as possible.’ Tigerair said it would provide hotel accommodation compensation for all passengers left stranded overnight. Volcanic eruptions also forced the closure of two airports and disrupted some flights on Wednesday. Mount Gamalama on the eastern island of Ternate erupted early Wednesday (Aug 3) after a moderate earthquake in the area, sending ash up to 600 metres (1,900 feet) into the air and closing the island’s airport, said the national disaster agency. “People are advised to stay calm,” said agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, adding that authorities were not yet planning evacuations. The airport was expected to stay shut until Thursday (Aug 4) morning. The volcano had stopped violently erupting by Wednesday (Aug 3) afternoon. Mount Sinabung, a volcano on the western island of Sumatra which has been rumbling for some time, also erupted violently on Tuesday (Aug 2) although its ash clouds did not disrupt any flights.

Indonesia Capital’s Airport to Open New Terminal Next Week The main airport serving the Indonesian capital Jakarta will next week open a new terminal to ease the burden on the country’s busiest aviation hub, the airport operator said Wednesday (3/8). Air passenger numbers are soaring in Indonesia, the world’s biggest archipelago nation, as a growing middle class increasingly chooses to fly but ageing infrastructure is struggling to keep up. The $380 million terminal will have a capacity of 25 million passengers a year once fully operational, said state-owned airport operator Angkasa Pura II. The other terminals are currently handling a total of about 60 million passengers a year, way over their capacity. The new Terminal 3 will start off handling only flights operated by Indonesian flag carrier Garuda, and it is hoped it will be fully operational by March next year. “This will be the biggest terminal in Indonesia,” Angkasa Pura II chief executive Djoko Murjatmodjo told AFP. It will eventually be connected to central Jakarta, about 30 km (18 miles) away, by a rail link. There is currently no rail line between the airport and city centre, leaving passengers facing monster traffic jams to get into Jakarta at busy times. The terminal’s opening has been delayed for more than a month after the government ordered alterations following the discovery that an important part of the airport was not visible from the air traffic control tower. As well as ageing infrastructure, the Indonesian aviation sector also faces problems with safety and has suffered a string of deadly crashes in recent years. (August 5th 2016) C/NV/U-16 Mar 16

Help, I have found a Lump on my Dog! Skin lumps are very common in dogs all over the world, Bali included. There are a whole range of possible scenarios that can present as a lump on the skin, including, insect bites and stings, snake bites, abscesses, hematomas, cysts, soft tissue swelling following trauma and benign or malignant tumors. Tumors are probably the most common of these that we see at Sunset Vet, but two thirds of them are benign and therefore merely cosmetic. Here we look at the most common types of tumor affecting the skin and subdermis (just under the skin) in dogs, and what, if any, treatment they require. When presented with a skin tumor, a veterinarian has 2 issues to deal with. 1. Is it a type of tumor that requires surgical removal? 2. Is further treatment required once it has been removed? Some skin tumors are so obviously benign that a vet will not even bother to biopsy it, let alone recommend removal. These are the small wart like tumors that are often attached by a narrow strip of skin. All skin tumors that do not ¿t this category though should be subjected to a ¿ne needle aspiration (inserting a needle into the lump, sucking out some cells and characterizing them under a microscope) or a surgical biopsy. This will determine whether or not complete removal is necessary, and de¿ne the prognosis. A thorough clinical examination is important to assess both the tumor and the patient as a whole. A veterinarian will study the tumor with respect to its size, position and appearance, and examine the local and regional lymph nodes to look for any evidence of metastasis. What is the difference between benign and malignant tumors? Benign tumors are generally slow growing and may change little over the course of a year. They usually have a clear margin and cause the dog little trouble, but they can occasionally cause discomfort if they become ulcerated or start to bleed following self-trauma. Malignant tumors often grow rapidly over a few weeks. They tend to become ulcerated (appear like an open wound or bleed) early in their course and they can in¿ltrate surrounding tissues, therefore seeming ¿xed and less moveable than benign tumors. BENIGN SKIN TUMORS Naevi and Skin Tags These are not tumors, they are harmless, well-marginated stable skin growths that are present at birth, but can grow in old age. Warts and Papillomas These are benign tumors that may grow spontaneously or may be triggered by a virus. Sebaceous Cysts These are common in dogs (around 7% of all skin tumors). They are not tumors, but accumulations of sebum within the gland due to a blocked duct, which can often be resolved by squeezing it. Sebaceous Hyperplasia This is proliferation of the sebaceous tissue mentioned above to form cauliÀower like warts that may become traumatised, ulcerate and bleed. They are very common in old Cocker Spaniels and Poodles. Surgical excision or cryosurgery with liquid nitrogen is curative. Basal Cell Tumor More common in cats than dogs. Usually presents as a domed, well marginated hairless pink mass in the skin. They tend to be moveable over underlying structures and are slow growing. Surgical excision is curative.
can occur at any age. They grow rapidly over about 6 weeks to a maximum size of around 2cm, and are domed hairless lumps within the skin that can ulcerate. The key step for the veterinarian is to differentiate histiocytomas from mast cell tumors (see later), which can be easily done via a ¿ne needle aspirate. Surgical excision or cryotherapy is curative for histiocytomas, and many will disappear of their own accord without treatment. BENIGN SUBCUTANEOUS TUMORS Lipoma The lipoma is the most common subcutaneous tumor in dogs. It is a well-de¿ned, well-circumscribed mass with a soft rubbery texture to it. They are slow growing and a very common occurrence in older overweight dogs. They can occur both on the trunk or on the limbs, and though they are completely benign, occasionally they can become so large that they are a nuisance to the dog and only then is surgical excision necessary. Before assuming a lump is a lipoma, it is good practice to have a veterinarian perform a ¿ne needle aspirate on the lump as one or two other tumors can mimic a lipoma, such as certain presentations of mast cell tumors (see below) and hemangiopericytomas. MALIGNANT SKIN TUMORS Squamous Cell Carcinoma This is a common malignant tumor in both cats and dogs. It usually occurs on relatively hairless non pigmented skin and can be triggered by long or repeated exposure to UV light. Surgical excision is usually curative if good margins are achieved, and those cases with incomplete margins bene¿t from post operative radiotherapy to kill the remaining cancer cells. Some squamous cell carcinomas are very dif¿cult to remove though, such as a nasty in¿ltrative form which occurs on the nasal planum. Chemotherapy has been used for this tumor type with mixed results.

Melanomas Relatively common in dogs. The majority are benign and surgical excision is curative. However, those that arise on the nail bed, scrotum or mucocutaneous junction (e.g. on the lips) are usually malignant. Surgical excision is mandatory. Mast Cell Tumors These are amongst the most common of skin tumors in dogs. They have a wide range of appearance and behavior, making them sometimes challenging to diagnose and treat. About 10 per cent of dogs suffer them at multiple sites. Mast cells occur naturally in the skin, performing an important function in releasing histamine and heparin in response to various allergic stimuli. Like any cell line, mutations can occur where the cells start to divide uncontrollably, forming a tumor. If a mast cell tumor is squeezed it will therefore release histamine and cause a wheal reaction on the skin. Histamine can also cause vomiting so affected dogs may present with upset stomachs. If a mast cell tumor is confirmed on a fine needle aspirate, it should be surgically excised as soon as conveniently possible. In cases of well-marginated tumors that are caught fairly early, this is usually curative. Margins of 2 to 3cm are advised. However, higher-grade tumors tend to be aggressively invasive and complete excision is not always feasible. In these cases, partial excision together with radiotherapy or chemotherapy is the treatment of choice. Dogs that have had mast cell tumors tend to be predisposed to getting them again in the future, even if they are surgically excised promptly. Therefore, owners of such dogs should meticulously examine their dog’s skin at periodic intervals to search for any suspicious lumps.
Histiocytoma Usually seen in juvenile dogs around 18months old, though

BA Feature Article

BA Feature Article The Heron Rookery at Petulu Gunung By Ines Wynn Once upon a time, in a poor village on the outskirts of a prosperous town, the denizens of the area were wondering why the world and its prosperity seemed to pass them by. The village itself was pleasant, cool and peaceful, but isolated. There were not many good roads leading to better places and the people were poor because there were not many jobs available locally. The few rice ¿elds surrounding the village were already cultivated but apart from this, there was no industry, no art, and no jobs for the rest of them. Because of the poor roads, not many people were able to ¿nd jobs in the surrounding area. Those that did venture forth had to travel a long way to ¿nd work and lived as migrant laborers far away from home, sporadically returning to their village and their families, when harvests were finished or for major religious holidays like Galungan. That, of course, was the source of a lot of unhappiness in the community. The villagers clung to their ancient traditions and religious practices and dutifully performed the rites for their gods and their ancestors. Yet, somehow, the people of the village started forming the idea that perhaps they were not doing enough to appease the gods. Maybe, they thought, they were not offering the right yadnya, the special offerings that please the almighty. And so they formulated a plan to organize a big ceremony at their Pura Desa, the village temple, to ask divine intervention and grant the poor villagers some prosperity. They believed that by performing this ceremony, to include ritual cleansing of the grounds, the shrines and its contents, the community would be rewarded with a life of harmony, peace and prosperity. Mangku Desa, the village priest, chose an auspicious day named Kliwon Landep to perform the ceremony and the villagers set to work, preparing everything needed for the ritual. They collected bamboo trees, coconut leaves, rice, eggs, all the other necessary ingredients and the sacri¿cial animals. The preparations created some tense moments as people had different ideas on how to proceed but they managed to complete the work. While engaged in their preparations some of the people spotted a few herons, which they call Kokokan, perching in the tree in front of the Mangku’s house. As the birds were not known to nest in the area, it was an unusual sight and it turned out to be an omen; but at the time they did not realize that. The big ceremony which included cleansing, offering and thanksgiving rituals like Melasti, Mepedanan, Mepedagingan and Mepada lasted over several days and was completed smoothly and in total respect and peace. The villagers were all happy and proud that they were able to offer such a great homage to the gods even though they were poor and destitute. November 7th, 1965 was the day the ceremony ended with Bhetara Mesineb when the Gods were restored to the temple. And that’s when the herons came to Petulu Gunung. At ¿rst a group of herons started nesting in several trees in the village. More and more came, and in such great numbers that soon, every tree in the village was populated by herons. The villagers marveled at that and interpreted it as a gift from the gods that needed to be acknowledged and looked after. And so they made it a point to accept and respect the Kokokan birds and safeguard them in their village. They issued special regulations called awig-awig to protect them and keep them from being disturbed because they believed that if the birds were disturbed, it would bring disharmony and disaster to the village. It was not long before the Petulu villagers realized they had
been handed a wonderful asset which they could exploit for the benefit of their community. They turned this natural phenomenon into a tourist attraction and hit the proverbial jackpot. The village has become a natural habitat and nesting place for a colony of thousands of herons. Due to the protection of the awig-awig regulations the entire village has turned into a sanctuary. Soon the roads were repaired and tourists and spectators started to arrive to gawk at this phenomenon - for a fee. The village was no longer isolated and the migrant workers returned to take up jobs as caretakers of the birds, to open little shops selling food, drinks and little souvenirs for the tourists who come to visit. Some villagers are making handicrafts, paintings, or statues and others organize walking and cycling tours. T h e h e r o n sanctuary is indeed a phenomenon as it is limited to this particular village and does not extend to the surrounding area. The Petulu people respect and revere the birds. To give thanks for their prosperity and to keep the birds in their village, they hold special piodalan ceremonies twice a year on every Kliwon Kuningan, the Saturday following the Galungan holiday. It is believed the ceremonies help to keep the birds healthy and fertile, and maintain the harmony between the birds and the people from the village. There is, as always, an unof¿cial version of the story of the arrival of the herons. Some villagers claim that the herons came as the result of a cleansing ceremony that was held to purify the village after the atrocious events of the anticommunist purge when a number of Petulu inhabitants were massacred and buried in a mass grave. It is believed the herons are the incarnated souls of the murdered villagers. Whatever the version, the spectacle remains the same. Heron tidbits. Herons are medium to large sized birds with long legs, necks and bills. They are carnivorous and seek their food in wetlands and water and habitually feed on the margins of lakes, rivers, ponds and in rice¿elds. They belong to the family of birds called Ardeidae, with 64 recognized species. Sometimes they are called egrets or bitterns. Egrets are not a biologically distinct group from the herons; they tend to be named differently because they are mainly white. Herons resemble birds in some other families, such as storks, ibises, spoonbills and cranes; the main difference is that they Ày with their necks retracted, not outstretched. Most herons nest colonially in trees, while others, notably the bitterns, use reed beds. In Petulu three distinct varieties of herons are present. They differ mainly in size and the color and shape of their head and back feathers. The smallest birds are the Javan Pond Herons, called Blekok by the locals. They are chunky with a thick neck, short legs and short yellow bill; they have white plumage which changes to black back and head feathers in mating season. The Cattle Egret is a bit larger with a medium build, white plumes and yellow bill and has yellow-brown back feathers. The locals call them Bangau-Bangau. The biggest birds are paradoxically called Little Egrets and sport long necks and black feet; they have a pure white body coloring. The locals call them Kokokan. These birds are a familiar sight in the Bali rice ¿elds especially at plowing time when they can pick
delicious morsels from the upchurned mud. They are the most gregarious of the colony. Herons are very social birds that feed in flocks, are monogamous and highly colonial. Colonies may contain several species like in Petulu and have a de¿nite pecking order with the bigger birds nesting in the upper part of the trees and the smaller ones below. In the mating season, the herons’ plumage changes to attract female companions. The Javan Pond Heron for instance, is normally a motley brown flecked with white which turns into a multihued plumage during mating season. Then the heron sports a cinnamon-colored breast, capuchin-style black head and back feathers and a pale honey colored crest. The cattle egrets and little egrets display similar changes. During mating season the male cattle egrets will typically sprout orange plumes on the back, breast and crown; little egrets will grow Àuffy snowy plumes on crest and neck. Mating and nesting season coincides with Bali’s rainy season, roughly from November to March. Courtship takes part on or around the nest. Males start building the nest which they use as a staging point to attract females. Their neck and crown feathers may change color at this point and a fascinating ritual involving visual displays and posturing will clue in the female that the time is right. Their mating season rituals are very entertaining to watch as they employ a series of distinctive mating calls, a lot of headshaking, wing spreading, neck stretching and bill snapping to attract the females. After male and female have paired up they will ¿nish building the nest. The Petulu birds usually lay eggs once a year. Starting in November, the birds will build their nests and the female will lay 4 to 6 eggs which will hatch in December-January. The chicks are able to Ày by March. Mature herons will leave the village in search of food during the day but return by late afternoon to roost. That is when the spectacle kicks in. It is an exciting sight to see big Àocks of birds return to the village and claim their spot in their home tree. The village community has created a perfect viewing spot on the second Àoor of their bale banjar, the community center, which looks out to the surrounding rice ¿elds and the nesting trees; where you can sit and sip on a cool beverage while watching the birds coming home to roost. It’s a great sunset activity to observe those noisily squawking birds perform their afternoon rituals, witness their pecking order, family squabbles, courtship activities and mating rituals ¿rsthand. Ringside seats and salient commentary are provided every day at 5pm at the community center when the birds return to the village after a day of foraging to nest and roost. The village estimates that during breeding season the sanctuary is home to some 20,000 birds. How to get there. Petulu Gunung is easily accessible from Ubud. Take the Andong Road north out of Ubud’s main street and look for the signs, exactly 1.8 kilometers north of the big statue. Turn left and follow the road for a further 2 kilometers. You can buy tickets for Rp.20,000 at the entrance to the village. A carpark is available at the top of the village. To read more about herons, check the very informative www. heronconservation.org.
