Vale Rudy Kerremans Rudy Kerremans passed away Saturday January 30. Whilst the autopsy results are not yet known, he appears to have suffered either a heart attack or a seizure whist driving his car through Pengosekan. The Ubud community is in shock as they mourn this great man. Only 44 years of age, he had prepared well for a future life, one that now no longer exists. Rudy arrived in Bali 15 years ago, at the end of a 3 month backpacking tour of SE Asia [a self reward after selling his bar/restaurant in Antwerp, Belgium]. Bali was his ¿nal stop, to visit with Belgian friends who were living here. He fell in love with our magic island and stayed. Spurned by the local 5 star hotels with whom he sought employment in F & B, and with limited capital, he leased a derelict warung on a back street of Ubud, the then unpaved Jln. Bisma then just full of home stays and rice paddies. With love and care, and the ultimate professionalism, he created Cafe des Artistes. Simple European cuisine, with a quality and consistent kitchen, well trained young friendly front of house staff, a relaxed garden setting and most importantly, presided over by the ever smiling, charismatic Rudy Kerremans. Early days 4-5 tables was a good night, in recent years an evening reservation almost mandatory. Rudy has also performed, in an unof¿cial capacity, most of the role of Belgium’s honorary consul in Bali, constantly aiding fellow Belgians in distress, his of¿cial appointment as such was to happen later this year. He had also been noti¿ed, by The Belgium Ambassador to Indonesia, that he had just been nominated for a King’s Award [Order of the Crown] to be announced in the November Honours List, for his tireless, and unpaid, efforts over the years. All who were fortunate enough to have known him were permanently touched by his sincerity and caring.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia by Bill Dalton

Murni’s Bali Tours, Murni’s Very Personal Guide to Ubud, 40 Delicious Years, Secrets of Bali and From Tattoos to Textiles It’s not unusual that Ni Wayan Murni - hotelier, restaurateur, art collector, textile expert, blogger - has just published her 5th book. Everything about Murni and her wide range of interests is unusual. All of this woman’s activities link together, each emerging out of one another. Her literary output is no exception. Murni has written and co-authored ¿ve books as well as numerous articles on Balinese art and culture (read on her blog: http://www.murnis.com). The majority of photographs in her books were contributed by the accomplished, well known Bali photographer Jonathan Copeland. Ni Wayan Murni, born in Penestanan, is a well known and much loved personality on the Bali scene and a pioneer of Balinese tourism. During her extraordinary life Murni has lived in Sanur and Ubud and has travelled over the globe. By the early 1970s she owned four shops on Sanur beach and had opened Ubud’s ¿rst real restaurant, Murni’s Warung, overlooking the Campuan River. Many thousands of people have enjoyed her food and hospitality. Both amateurs and professionals have learned from her experience collecting and writing about the Southeast Asian arts. But far from letting all her notoriety go to her head, Murni has shown a longstanding dedication to her community, family and local temples. She actively participates in banjar activities, plays in a women’s gamelan group at important religious ceremonies and takes part in cultural events. When guests asked Murni for advice on where to go or what to do in Ubud or on what to buy, those inquiries gave birth to Murni’s Very Personal Guide to Ubud (Orchid Press 2011). Written by a native Ubud resident – the village of her birth - this eBook selling for only around Rp25,000 is kept up to date more easily than a printed guidebook. Being digital, it can easily be carried around on your portable iPhone, iPad, Android or Kindle. In a sense, Murni has been researching this eGuide all her life, confiding with her guests what businesses she likes to patronize; what arts and crafts, courses, cultural sites and secret places she recommends and what galleries she supports. This 120-page guide, with its detailed descriptions and insightful observations, is all you need to experience the very best of what Ubud has to offer. Each tour covers a range of interests, so whether you are a temple lover, an art a¿cionado or a history buff there is something for you. Some wonderful short walks, scenic treks, selected art galleries, chocolate and ceramic factories, a strawberry farm and a visit to Bali’s youngest priestess have also been included. Stunning slideshows and photographs of each tour, taken by Jonathan Copeland, are viewable on YouTube. Forty Delicious Years, Murni’s Warung 1974–2014: From Toasted Sandwiches to Balinese Smoked Duck, published in 2014, was a natural outcome of the 40th anniversary of Murni’s Warung when Murni presided over the book’s launch, spoke and signed copies. This book tells the story of one of Bali’s most enduring culinary landmarks from its beginnings as a humble roadside stall on the side of a river gorge to become an institution. Narrated by some of the warung’s eclectic and most intriguing patrons, with a preface by Murni herself, the collection of vignettes, anecdotes and testimonials makes easy and immensely enjoyable reading. It applauds all that is worthwhile in life – good food, gracious hospitality, shared laughter and the warm company of friends. The reminisces are especially compelling from the perspective of its 40 famous contributing authors, artists, scholars, adventurers and notable long-time Bali expats. The book was edited by Jonathan Copeland, Rob Goodfellow and Peter O’Neill. Bring your copy to the restaurant, or get it there, and Murni will sign it.

Murni’s ¿ne arts credentials are impeccable. During her adult life she has passionately dedicated herself to collecting Asian antiques and textiles. Munri was the ¿rst person in Ubud to establish a proper gallery of antiques, textiles, costumes, old beads, tribal jewelry, stone carvings, masks and other ethnic pieces. Many of these unique museum quality artifacts are to be found in Murni’s Warung Shop beside her restaurant. In the course of pursuing her hobby, she has become an acknowledged authority. The idea for From Tattoos to Textiles, All You Need to Know ... And More, was conceived during the course of an exhibition of Murni’s collection of Asian antiques and textiles in San Francisco in 2007 at the prestigious Arts of Paci¿c Asia and Tribal Arts & Textiles show. In 2009, the textile curator at the Young Museum invited her to come back to San Francisco to lecture on Balinese textiles before the Textile Arts Council at the museum, which she did following her second exhibition in San Francisco. This gave rise to a much-expanded and more wide-ranging written version of the lecture that includes many additional photographs of selected pieces from Murni’s personal collection. Her latest publication Murni’s Bali Tours, Where to go, What to Do and How to Do It is an eBook of seven tours written and designed for guests staying at Murni’s Houses. Tours of Bali routinely offered by travel agents and drivers haven’t really changed for decades, even though there are now numerous exciting new places to visit. Again, this book sprang out of a need to serve her many guests who expressed an interest in going to unusual off the beaten track places, more preferable than the run of the mill destinations that drivers often recommend. Guests also wanted clear, helpful and accurate information about both classic and untouristed places, which many drivers aren’t able to do. This new must-take eBook (Rp100,000 or free for guests staying at Murni’s Houses who book a tour) focuses on a whole set of fresh destinations away from the mainstream such as the Sukarno Center, Pura Gunung Raung and the rice terraces at Ceking that are less overrun than the ones at Tegalallang.

Secrets of Bali, Fresh Light on the Morning of the World, co-authored with Jonathan Copeland, was published by Orchid Press in 2010. This comprehensive account of Bali’s history and culture arose from questions that guests staying at Murni’s Houses asked her to explain. The persistence of inquiries gave her the idea of researching speci¿c subjects in more detail and putting it all down on paper so that it was available for everyone. The book offers succinct and wide ranging information about Balinese life, religion, festivals and offerings, architecture, music, dance, textiles, dress, carvings and paintings, manuscripts and food. Secrets of Bali is not a guidebook per se, but a valuable and authoritative reference source as well as an entertaining read for the visitor, scholar and Bali a¿cionado. Encyclopedic in its coverage, the result of prodigious research, dif¿cult subjects from the sublime to the arcane are simply explained in this well written and up to date work which will reveal a great number of facts and misconceptions that are little known to even long-term residents of Bali.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS BALINESE TRANCE - TRANCE Possibly for the ¿rst time ever in Bali, and coinciding with three major trance rituals around the island, Pak Made Surya is offering an extraordinary experiential workshop and seminar, “Understanding Balinese Trance”. The Balinese “year” is complex, relying on three overlapping spiritual and ancient calendars. Thanks to Pak Made, an expert on Balinese religion and ceremony, we can take advantage of the juxtaposition of these three hugely signi¿cant Bali Hindu events, which rarely happen so close together. In 2016, these three very different trance rituals will take place in 3 different parts of the island in a relatively short amount of time - on February 20 and 27 and March 8. This workshop offers four to eight students a unique opportunity. Each day will begin with a seminar explaining that day’s event, and its meaning in the Bali Hindu religion. Students then travel to view the ritual with Made Surya as tour leader, returning to Ubud with time for questions and answers. Special fee of $AU 275.00 or 2,600,000rp, includes drinks, transport, temple entrance/ offerings, course notes. Lunch/ dinner and pakaian adat (Balinese temple clothing required for rituals) not included. For further information contact danu@earthlink.net or look on Tutmak notice board, on Jalan Dewi Sita next to the Ubud football ¿eld. CONGRATS BRIDGES! It’s a while since I stood looking out towards the Campuhan Bridge with Claude and the rest of his B r i d g e s Restaurant team, as Claude painted a picture – in that soft, mesmerizing French Canadian accent - of his vision for an elegant cocktail space with a tropical river view. Now that level of one of Ubud’s favourite restaurant is complete, offering the perfect place for a quiet celebration or a relaxed conclusion to your Ubud week. The guests clearly love it! Oh, and don’t forget Bridges’ extensive collection of great wines for sale in the wine shop – they pay the taxes, so no hidden surprises! Check out the new DIVINE wine and cocktail bar tonight; beside the Campuhan River Bridge, with valet parking. NON INVASIVE FACIAL No question, Ubud is the place for “spa treatments”, a term that ignoramus Moi hadn’t even heard of a decade to go. Please, help me tell everyone if you ¿nd a great new spot (my email below). For now, if your skin is feeling a bit dry and jaded after the months of unseasonal drought, or you’ve just arrived and your face is telling you it is trying to adjust from home to tropical Bali, try a facial at one of my favourite spots, Fresh! Spa in Jalan Dewi Sita, right in the centre of Ubud. First, sit your weary bones on a comfy chair facing the view of the river outside the window. One of Fresh!’s smiling staff will offer a cup of ginger tea, and help you decide what you are after – have you got an hour or an entire pamperful day? – but make sure you include one of their cooling facials. Your skin will thank you. Bookings: phone 0361-849 3677, or email fresh@freshspbali.com.

POMEGRANATE ANYONE? I’m a foodie too, and top of my travel musts is a spectacular sunset (the cry, “Mum! Sunset!” is one of my favourites). So Café Pomegranate ticks all the boxes. It’s a 20 minute stroll up the path towards Sari Organik, your destination a huge tent sitting in a rice ¿eld. Despite other little cafes, “galleries” and shops selling artworks along the path, you still get that “middle of nowhere” feeling. On the international menu, my vote goes to the Singapore chicken rice, a simple dish that relies on chicken stock properly prepared with the chef’s secret list of spices. Take your time, so you can enjoy the sunset from the ¿rst to last brushful of colour across the sky. Bring your mozzie spray and a good torch for the walk back to Jalan Raya Ubud (possible by scooter, but be careful). Open 9am - 9pm on. W: cafepomegranate.org.

UBUD ATM SKIMMING Recently friends were victims of fraudulent purchases or cash withdrawals from their credit card; soon after using an ATM in Ubud. It is smart to be very cautious when you use ATMs (in Ubud or anywhere), and if you can, avoid the machines near COCO Mart and Bintang supermarket. Card skimmers use various tricks to gain access to the numbers and steal the password of your card, so they can use up the money on your account. It’s smart to: pay cash, everywhere you can; withdraw money from bank tellers; seek out ATM machines inside banks (Commonwealth Bank up the road from Delta supermarket, for example); and have a second bank account / card so you can transfer smaller amounts to that card for card transactions. If you have a problem, report it immediately both to your own bank and the branch where you last used an ATM. And put it on Ubud Community’s page on Facebook, to help warn other travellers.

Go Local: 2016 Ubud Food Festival set to showcase the very best in local restaurants, ingredients and Indonesian culinary tradition After bringing together over 6,500 foodies from across Indonesia and the globe for the inaugural event in 2015, the Ubud Food Festival (UFF) has announced its return to Bali’s culinary capital from 27-29 May this year.

A window into Indonesian culture, the UFF will also dive into the rich tapestry of culinary tradition, from the meaning of ‘lawar’ – the food of Balinese priests – to a visit to the ‘Tofu Grannies’ who have been producing Ubud’s artisan tofu for generations.

Showcasing the delicious tastes and diversity of the Indonesian archipelago, the three-day event will play host to high energy cooking demonstrations, hands-on workshops and master-classes, special events at some of Ubud’s most celebrated culinary establishments, in-depth food forums, and much, much more.

The festival will also continue on its mission to bring together chefs from across the archipelago, from new chefs making waves on the rapidly evolving local food scene to the ‘ibu-ibu’ (mothers) of Indonesian cuisine.

“If there was one lesson we learned from the 2015 Ubud Food Festival, it’s that the hunger is real,” said Founder and Director Janet DeNeefe. “The enthusiasm of the local and international culinary community was so overwhelming, there wasn’t really any question of whether we’d bring the festival back for a second year.” The full program and line-up is set to be released via the UFF website in early April when tickets go on sale, but organisers already have a few tasty treats for food enthusiasts to sink their teeth into. “This year, this festival program is centred on the concept of ‘go local’,” explains DeNeefe. “Whether that’s showcasing local producers who work together with some of Ubud’s best restaurants, or challenging our International chefs to get creative with tempe and turmeric, it’s all about working with what Indonesia has to offer.”

With last year’s high energy Rendang CookOff between Indonesia and Malaysia a huge hit, the festival’s cooking demonstration series will challenge chefs to plate up their best dishes, from spicy sambal to bebek goreng, exploring regional inÀuences and traditional culinary customs. “Indonesian food is so incredibly diverse; even the most well-known dishes such as nasi goreng are unique to the areas in which they are made. We’re also now seeing the modernisation of Indonesian food, as it gains momentum outside of the country and takes on international variations,” said DeNeefe. “The UFF is all about enriching our understanding of this journey, and exploring the social, cultural and historical context that surrounds it. How do we modernise and keep our traditional roots? That’s what this year’s Festival is all about.”

Update Nirvana is one of Bali’s quiet achievers! It is located on supposedly the wrong side of Eat Street [most others on this side run on empty], Jln. Laksmana, Kerobokan. What used to be Lotus Grill many years ago has been the ever full Nirvana ever since. With the addition of the ex Divine Wonderland, now the Nirvana Burger Bar that doubled their frontage and added an outdoor bar with a popular street front bench, and busy every day and full every night,. What is Nirvana’s secret when so many other places struggle? Simple cuisine, what I call ‘comfort food’, dishes that most tourists recognize and feel comfortable with, at budget prices with friendly smiling service. Nirvana unashamedly caters for tourists, and mainly the suburban Aussie ones. Those who traditionally eat steaks washed down with numerous beers or a bottle, or two, of red. Top of the menu at Nirvana are their steaks, all available in four different sizes so as to cater for all. The Entrecote with Café de Paris sauce was one of the best [and cheapest] I have had in Bali. Steak au Poivre is another popular option. The Duck Breast is a surprise, perfectly cooked pink as it should be, cross sliced and drizzled with a balsamic sauce. Hungry men regularly go for Nirvana’s Mixed Grill [grilled tuna, beef and prawn with chicken sausage].

Settimo Cielo is Bali’s latest quality Italian restaurant. It is located on Jln. Pangkung Sari, in Kerobokan. At the helm is Nicolas Lazzaroni, the very talented young Italian chef from Australia who put Bridges on the dining map in Ubud and followed that by being the opening chef at Como Shambhala’s Uma Cucina. One look at this menu and you know that you will have to return many times to try all the tempting dishes on offer. Start with the Crudo of Yellow Fin Tuna [thinly sliced with stracciatella, fried capers, basil oil, rucola, mint, basil, pistachio pesto and pangrattato] or Fennel Crusted Salmon Carpaccio, with chilli dressing, green olive salsa, rucola, shaved zucchini, fennel and mint. The types of dishes that Nicolas prepares so well, clean and fresh in taste! Follow that with Crisp Zucchini Blossoms, stuffed with goat cheese, sage leaves, pumpkin and salsa verde or a Salad of Roasted Baby Beets, with baby Romaine hearts, tri signore cheese, grilled zucchini, mint and pine nuts. For a meaty main try the Milanese all’Osso [T Bone Steak crusted with lemon zest, thyme and Parmesan] or that old Italian favourite, Osso Buco. You really will be in ‘Seventh Heaven’! The View is the upstairs restaurant [with a classic view across the valley to Jimbaran Bay] at The Beverly Hills Resort in Ungasan. A generally International menu features Korean cuisine as the villa complex is under Korean management. A new addition to the dinner menu is Brazilian Churrasco, a variety of meats flame-grilled on large skewers. As the Churrasco menu is available on an all-you-can-eat basis, for Rp.550,000++ it is a carnivore’s delight!

Miura Pintxos Bar & Grill brings the food of the Basques to Bali. North western Spain has, in recent years, become a special destination for adventurous diners. Basque cuisine begins with pintxos, the Basque equivalent of Spanish Tapas, snacks to have with a drink or as an entrée before other courses. Pintxos are identified by being skewered with a toothpick, to both hold together and for easy eating, no cutlery needed. A variety of seafood, cheeses and cold cuts sit on small rounds of bread, pierced by that toothpick. The restaurant sits in front of the Grandma’s Hotel in Jln. Dhyana Pura, Seminyak.

C/R/I-03 Feb 16

Shanghai Baby has opened on Jln. Petitneget, on the site that once housed one of the area’s originals, Purnama [and for a brief time Bar Code]. The cuisine is more Chinese style than the pure Chinese fare that you would imagine, Foie Gras [sesame crusted with red wine gastrique], Chilli Crab Salad and Braised Beef Ribs. Prawn and Pork Rib Curry, very strange. Chocolate desserts, even a ‘French’ Crème Brulee? The accent seems to be more on décor, cocktails and DJ’s, another ‘party place’, rather than memorable cuisine. The jury is still out on this one but I will give it time to settle down.

My Greek Taverna has opened in Central Lovina. It heralds the return of Marinos, to what he does best. The cuisine is, as expected, very traditional Greek, the classic restaurant décor is blue & white, of course! Start with a selection of entrees, all dips and starters come with pita bread. Classic dips of Tzatziki [Yoghurt mixed with cucumber, dill, extra virgin olive oil and flavored with garlic], Humus [chickpeas blended with tahini], Piperia Feta [smoked red paprika smashed with feta], or Dolmades [grape leaves stiffed with a mix of rice and herbs], Keftedes [Greek meat balls], Spanakopita [Phyllo pastry stuffed with spinach and cheese] or Tiropita stuffed with egg and cheese. Maritha are baby sardines, deep fried and served with lemon. Then there is marinated octopus, an all-time favourite of mine. A range of healthy salads to cleanse the palate then the very Greek Moussaka [oven-baked eggplant, potatoes, bolognaise sauce topped with béchamel sauce and cheese]. From the grill; lamb or pork chops, chicken or pork souvlaki and roasted leg of lamb. A Mixed Grill [Lamb Chop, Pork Chop, Souzoukakia and Souvlaki] and the Marinos special …Lamb Gyros [mixed roasted lamb with Greek Salad and Potato Fries]. Lovina, like most of Greece, is by the sea so there are also many seafood options. For dessert, stay Greek with Baklava [Phyllo pastry with walnuts and cinnamon in syrup] or Galaktoboureko [Phyllo pastry with semolina, vanilla, and cream in syrup]. Even though the music is also Greek, please don’t smash the plates! Marinos, you have done it again!

Massimo’s, Jln. Danau Tamblingan, Sanur, does Gelato. Many other cafes and restaurants have gelato displays in front but drive past Massimo’s any time of the day [except rainy ones, and even then sometimes] and there will be people looking at the display, trying to make their selection. Recently in Italy was held the final of a world-wide search for the world’s No. 1 Gelato Master. From an initial 760 entrants it was down to the final 12 on January 25 in Italy. The outright winner was Massimo with his Italian- Balinese creation. He used almond from his home town (Lecce) to prepare a “almond gelato” then topped that with “a caramel cream” with “Bali cocoa beans deep into chocolate” ...the bitterness of cocoa beans met the light sweetness of almond and the strong flavour of caramel. Is it any wonder as to why his gelato is so popular in Bali? Well done, Massimo! Golden Saffron is an Indian restaurant from Surabaya. It is found on Jln. Patih Jelantik, beside and a part of the Euphoria Hotel. An Indian chef presides. All the standard dishes such as Butter Chicken, Chicken Tandoori, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Curries. The Tandoori Murgh Hariali (Green Chicken Tandoori) is one of their signature dishes in Surabaya. A pleasant surprise for Javanese management is that they also offer some pork dishes, all prepared on the kitchen with separate utensils.

Restaurant Review

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

On the Boardwalk! There are many restaurants in Bali that overlook beaches and the ocean. Some offer fine dining, some are meant for the trendy in-crowd where quality is not the highest priority, some are very basic. One fact however seem to run true wherever; you usually have to pay for the view, and sometimes at a price that is way over the top. Not so at The Boardwalk, the beachfront restaurant at the Bali Garden Hotel. What once used to be a sole pizza oven under the tree with a few tables and chairs scattered around is now a spacious restaurant, some tables under cover on the open terrace, others under the shade trees, all with views of the beach, and ocean beyond. It is stylish yet relaxed and casual. Access is via The Bali Garden Hotel [secure parking at front] or from the beachfront walkway. No, it is not fine dining! Boardwalk just offers a basic hearty cuisine perfect for the guests who frequent the hotel and this general area. Entrees and snacks are all under Rp.60,000, many of which are priced at almost half of that. Mains, bar two, are all under Rp.100,000. No wonder the hotel guests rarely leave to explore elsewhere. Due to the relaxed nature of the site a prolonged stay, snacking and sipping, is not unusual. Vegetable Curry Samosas [stuffed with potato, green peas and carrot] are in fact crisp deep-fried rice paper triangles, served in a pastry cup topped with a dollop of mango & apple chutney. Spring Rolls can be either Vegetarian [carrot, bean sprouts, cabbage and rice noodles] or Duck. Both of which are served with that Thai sweet chilli sauce so prefect for all deep fried pastries. There are many other all-day snacks including Grilled Baby Scallops and a tasty Avocado and Tiger Prawn Tails. Tossed in a cognac scented cocktail sauce! The usual selection of Sandwiches is available; on bread, foccacia or baguette include a very Aussie Steak Sandwich served in potato bread with a herb mayonnaise. Chicken Breast, yoghurt marinated and grilled, is served on focaccia. Hot from the oven is a Camembert & Salami Baguette which pushes Boardwalk into trendy café status [but only at Rp.49,000++ a bit of a steal!]. Plus Burgers [the Boardwalk Special of minced beef, cheese, bacon, mushrooms and egg or something similar with a sauce scented with that Jack Daniels]. A throwback to the 80’s when the Australian tourist invasion first began is to find Jaffles on the menu, stuffed with ham, tomato and cheese. Pizzas are a big part of Boardwalk’s standard fare, and they are wood-fired and of the thin crisp variety that most people prefer. Whilst the basic Italian Margherita and Marinara are

available it is the new creations that are the most popular. All time Australian favourite, The Hawaiian, becomes a Bali Tropical but with the same ham and pineapple ingredients. The Chicken Pesto is covered with strips of roasted chicken, a thick coating of pesto sauce and a sprinkling of pine nuts. Spicy Minced Beef combines that meat with salami, tomato, onion and oregano. The selection of Pasta dishes include Spaghetti, Penne and Fettuccine can be had many different ways [carbonara, bolognaise or with seafood] as well as Gnocchi baked in the oven with tomato and mozzarella. Soups can be a Spanish Gazpacho [chilled tomato and cucumber soup with garlic, shallot and Worcestershire sauce] old favourites Tomato or Chicken Noodle and that hot and sour Thai TomYum Goong, seemingly a dish that has been adopted by so many Bali restaurants. An interesting salad is the Boardwalk Special, beetroot, carrot, sweet corn, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower and lettuce tossed in a raspberry vinaigrette. Also refreshingly different are the Chicken & Mango, Potato & Beetroot and Baby Octopus salads. Seafood at budget prices, now that is rare for Bali! More so in a beachfront location such as The Boardwalk. An excellent simple Fish & Chips [nicely beer-battered snapper, with hand-cut chips], a range of local fish or a large Seafood Platter of tiger prawns, mussels, tuna, calamari and snapper. There are the few mandatory Indonesian offerings. A Chicken Satay comes with pieces of tender chicken smothered in a tangy peanut sauce, an extra bowl on the side for further dipping. Opor Ayam is one of Indonesia’s great dishes, chicken in a coconut curry. Ikan Rica-Rica is an import from Manado, fish in a spicy chilli tomato sauce.

The mains are all quite amazing, not just for their price but for their surprising quality. It makes you wonder about some of the prices charged elsewhere. Baked Lamb Shank [pictured] is in a red wine sauce, roasted onions and honey carrots on the side. Beef Pot Pie is very English [via Australia], minced Aussie beef on a base of mashed potato served in a ceramic bowl topped with pastry, baked in the oven, served with a pea mash, all hearty fodder! The Chicken Parmigiana is thick slabs of crumbed breast topped with a tomato salsa and melted cheese, tender, tasty and very filling. Chicken can also be had grilled Cajun style. Australian Sirloin Steaks are with black pepper or mushrooms and the Pork Chops are with garlic, onion and mushrooms, whilst the Baby Back Ribs are in a tangy BBQ sauce. Desserts offer something for everybody. For ‘chocaholics’, there is either a Fallen Angel or the Chocolate Cake. Sorbets have the extreme tastes of mango, lime and others. The Crème Brulee gets an Asian touch, infused with coconut. Just for the homesick Aussie, a Pavlova. The Crumble is with mangoes, all of which are suited to being consumed under the trees at beachside….on the boardwalk!

17 February - 02 March, 2016

Business & Travel

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE FEBRUARY 17 - MARCH 02, 2016

Venus slides into Aquarius as we enter this fortnight, followed directly by the Sun entering Pisces. We are moving ahead now as Mercury covers new degrees following the January retrograde. The Full Moon is in the sign of Virgo on the 23rd and the Sun in Pisces is sitting close to Neptune, the ruler of Pisces and the pair will join at the end of February. This is the time to surrender to the Mystery itself and allow your intuition and synchronicity to guide you. Saturn in Sagittarius is in a harmonious trine aspect to Uranus and asking each of us to broaden our perceptions of reality and to strike out in different, new and daring ways. This is a time to connect to the Universal mind and to be consciously aware of the collective, the human and non-human families on planet earth and beyond. Both the Pisces and Aquarius Planets are more concerned with the entirety of existence rather than the personal story and it’s interesting to witness a view of earth and it’s dilemma and beauty from an outer space perspective, as we’ve seen in recent media postings. This is the time to explore to be an adventurer of the cosmos and the infinite workings of the human bio-system, both intricately and eternally connected. The Pisces time of year is when you get to focus on your spiritual nature, your dreaming and your compassionate heart. A time when you can more naturally turn inward and seek out silence, solitude and God. FULL MOON 3 Virgo 34 February 23, 2015 2:21 a.m.

This time of solitude and deep inner exploring relates particularly to the Aries native and you may well find a renewed interest in your health and healing practices as well. This is a great opportunity to reflect on what has recently passed away and the direction of your life now. Your friends and community associations will be the source of joy and much communication this month. There is some tension still between the old sense of self and the newly emerging and stronger you, although you are ready now to teach what you’ve learnt and to implement any plans you have relating to foreign countries or work projects. With the Aquarius planets prompting you to express your ideals in the workplace you may find a little resistance from colleagues as you assert yourself. Stay with what is true for you and emotionally close to your own heart. You care deeply for your community and have a strong intuition when it comes to your surrounding environment and what is required to keep it in balance and harmony. Friends will also play an important role this month and you may find yourself relating more closely with them. There’s a radical exploration going on for you behind the scenes and mostly unnoticed by others and this is positively affecting your relationships. Mercury your ruler is in the sign of Aquarius and really taking you out there to the furthest reaches of the human mind. Inspired ideas may come through and this will support the needs of your community and friendships. Your career prospects are also open to surprises this month and you will find a lot of support or be of compassionate service to others in that arena. There is so much you have to share and as you take your responsibilities seriously, particularly when dealing one on one with others, you become a shining example. A big part of your soul’s purpose this year is in the nurture of others. The Full Moon is in the sign of Virgo and highlights the service axis with the Sun and Neptune in Pisces at the other end. Being a water sign and ruled by the Moon you are superbly linked to that fellow water sign Pisces and this makes for a very potent and emotional month. You may be feeling the pain of the World and in particular the children. Remember to keep an objective mind and share through communication your concerns and deep thinking. On the other hand, there is work to do and you are ready to forge ahead with your plans and begin to implement them in the everyday.

Venus, the lady of love harmony and beauty and is in your house of romance and she’s very happy about that. This may be the moment to speak up and welcome someone into the sacred temple. Some of you will be going a step further and laying down some commitments with a significant other during this time. They may need to be quite open to change and to encompass quite a broad understanding of differing values. Probably not so different from the big picture scenario you find yourself involved with now. Take some time for introspection and integration during the Full Moon to keep yourself on track with your plans. If you are ready to take some chances and to act a little more independently things could well open up for you in the workplace and around your financial standing. This is an emotionally powerful time for you and you may want to share it with another in a romantic and intimate way. Communication can be friendly and loving when it comes to family interactions during this next month and you may want to use them as a sounding board for your new ideas. It’s the perfect time to utilise the Mars Scorpio combination that will give you even more energy than normal and self-motivation. Seek out complimentary friendships. Saturn in your sign is making progress, even if it is slow with regards to the next evolution with your children or those in your life. Your life is filled with opportunities to sort out and make plans for the next chapter unfolding now. There may be things to complete and this may mean old relationships popping into your life for another round. So much of your attention is on family matters this month and with the Sun and Neptune in Pisces, there may well be deep emotional releases and moments of bliss. No need to be afraid of the tears if they should erupt with force and offer cleansing.

There’s something refreshingly authentic about an empty handed plunge into the void. If you feel that you are deep sea diving at the moment, be bold and original in your self-expression. Your mental capacity is emotionally highlighted during this month and the Full Moon has you sorting out any foreign or study options requiring your attention. It could be that you are looking for a little retreat time in a spiritual ashram or something along these lines. This is also the time to re-evaluate your ideas, ideals and future plans. It could be a rewarding thing to get your friends involved in monetary schemes you’ve dreamt up over the past weeks.

When the Sun transits Pisces you are thrown into a time of assessing your capacity to share with others. You may feel more like offering a kind word or even being of financial assistance to people less well off. This Full Moon is a portal for getting practical with your belongings and finances. If there is a foreign love interest, this could be the time to be a little bolder and perhaps take action on those travel plans. You are more than ready to go deeply into issues pertaining to home base and in fact can even systematically go through your own healing around early childhood and familial issues.

There’s a harmony between what you think and what those around you are also opening up to. This alignment will finally have you feeling the rewards of the effort that you’ve put in over recent months, if not years. You have a deep compassionate streak which is highly visible at the moment and you will be speaking true to your nature and ideals this coming month. As the Sun enters Pisces you feel the organic movement towards your more spiritual nature and a need for solitude, particularly around Full Moon. This is a perfect time to digest and integrate the last few weeks and to initiate the next cycle.

You are activated and motivated towards balancing your alone time verses your relationships this fortnight. There are things that you need to do to balance yourself and a lot of understanding required with regards to your significant other. Communication is something that you do every day and yet the nature of it is of paramount importance now and particularly when it comes to what you hold dear and true for you. Our values change, grow and evolve and it’s ok to outgrow a situation or place of employment or relationship. There’s a lot of remodelling to be done in the home or perhaps you have family or parental issues requiring attention.

This is birthday month and that means a balancing act between your own personal needs and those of the significant others in your life. A wanting to be of service and yet understanding that service to the Self is not a selfish act. As you open to a broadening of concepts around your vocational preferences your value and monetary systems adapt accordingly, although this happens in sudden spurts, rather than in steady increments. There are key relationships requiring your attention around the Full Moon and in fact throughout the coming months. This moon may highlight the specifics of the emotional content of each. Keep your friends and mental constructs close at this time.

The periodic struggle to get vehicles into and out of Ngurah Rai airport was worse than usual on Feb. 5, apparently. We weren’t there, which is probably a good thing. One hour-plus irritation a month already tests our toleration limit. It isn’t that we’re unsympathetic to local rites, religious or otherwise: far from it in fact, and far further than many might think. But of course we’ve only been here 10 years, much less time than many Resident Bules who clearly know a lot better, and that must be why we don’t really see the need to exponentially expand mayhem as a function of Bali life when it’s actually simpler not to. In normal circumstances the absence of the phrase membentuk antrian tertib (form an orderly queue) from both everyday Bahasa Indonesia and local consciousness - to say nothing of whatever the equivalent might notionally be in Basa Bali - creates road conditions that are interesting. That’s in the old Chinese sense. It’s not just at the airport. The chaotic Mille-Feuille Roundabout on the By-Pass is a case in point. That’s where traffic dashes in, using an anarchic multiplicity of “lanes” from four directions, including the airport and the toll road, while the traffic police look on (in desperation, it sometimes seems, and we sympathise) and drivers ignore everything except their own apparently desperate need to get in front of everyone else. In lighter traffic this can work, as long as you have nerves of steel. And you can jag a dream run round that funny round bit in the middle if you’re there at 4am, though you still need to be watchful for idiots who are doing 80km/h, aren’t looking, and don’t have their lights on. It’s a bit like the flood drains we don’t have here. They’re a waste of space when it’s not raining. The Feb.5 mess at the airport resulted from roads being closed for local ceremonies. The important Galungan (Feb. 9-11) festivities were coming up. Galungan is second only to Nyepi (Mar. 9 this year) for which the airport is officially closed. We’re told that on Feb. 5 it was taking vehicles an hour or more just to get into or out of the airport. The area resembled a parking lot. Leaving aside the issue of convenience for road users and the tedious matter of missing your flight, an unmovable traffic jam is a security concern in such a vital piece of public infrastructure. Two things need to be looked at. One is the requirement for the airport operating company, a featherbed state corporation, to bother about its responsibilities beyond collecting money. It should look at the airport’s ridiculous car parking arrangements and the road layout, for a start. The other is for the Bali provincial government and local councils to work with banjars on a plan that will recognise and facilitate both the requirements of adat (custom) and traffic needs. Public thoroughfares are no longer the village pathways that once could be blocked off at no great inconvenience to anyone. Hindu ceremonies are a crucial element of life in Bali. They must be protected and encouraged. They are the very essence of Bali and they’ll remain so even when Hindus become a minority in some areas.

Drink Up We went with a lovely friend the other evening to the Nusa Dua Beach Hotel in search of dinner. The desire had been expressed for the sort of meat and three veg dinner that is traditional in certain cultures and which can be difficult to find here. We went where we went because the lovely friend thought that’s where she might have been once, when such fare was apparently on offer. It wasn’t the place and there were no roast dinners - the Diary was not at all displeased - and we dined at the resort’s beachside Tamarind restaurant. The food was very good indeed, the intricacies of true medium-rare steak were clearly understood, a further bonus; and the Californian red zinfandel (a Berringer) was a very nice drop. We had a drink before dining. That was a slightly more enervating process. It was Happy Hour, they told us, on the standard two-for-one plan. The waiter brought two drinks menus. The Diary pointed out that there were three of us at the table. Oh yes, um, OK. A third menu eventually arrived, with an expression that bordered a tad too closely on exasperation. We then ordered “one large Bintang two glass” (the usual Diary and Distaff deal) and the lovely friend asked for a Gordon’s gin and tonic. The waiter tried to give the Distaff the large Bintang and the two glasses. Maybe the Diary really is invisible. Or perhaps the training sessions there mandate that when two women and one man are

ordering, the man is a Non-Presence; or is just along for the rides. We chatted and drank our drinks, enjoying the tropic ambience and browsing through the dinner menu. Then we called for our Happy Hour second round. Oh no, they tried to say, Happy Hour ends at 7pm. But we ordered before 7pm, the Distaff and lovely friend advised. The Diary remained silent, since he was apparently invisible. A manager appeared and tried to reinforce the too-late rule. He eventually conceded defeat and scurried off to get the bevies. The gin wasn’t Gordon’s. This was noticed. What a surprise! It got sent back.

Desert Island Slipped Discs Very little is more ignorant than breathless tabloid TV and the Australian sector of this disinformation industry is probably well up there with the worst. It’s often well meaning, Aussies being, you know, good blokes. Unless they’ve inadvertently trodden on their bonnets and got bees in them, but that can happen to anyone. So we were not surprised to see a promo for an item on the Seven Network’s Today Tonight show about Aussie couple that had gone to Bali and built a jungle resort on a deserted island. Suna and Joe Cavanagh, of Perth, have built Castaway resort on Lembongan, towards the rugged western end of the island where the Indian Ocean swells crash spectacularly into the low rocky cliffs. The resort, which is locally managed, looks fabulous and is on the Diary’s list for an unannounced visit. It’s on the sheltered coast away from the rollers. Lembongan is a beautiful spot. But it is not deserted - the Islanders alone number around 5000 - and neither is it by any measure jungle. Still, as Suna Cavanagh advised fans on Facebook, that’s TV.

Rule of Lore No doubt it will be appealed all the way to the Court of Final Shemozzle, but the recent decision of the Indonesian Supreme Court to uphold a ruling in a lower court last year to award use of the global IKEA trade name to a furniture outfit in Surabaya is worth a belly laugh, albeit it a hollow one. In a majority decision - there was one dissenting judge, apparently the sentient one - the Supreme Court said that since IKEA had not used its trade name in Indonesia for three years it had forfeited its right to do so. There’s no need to pause for applause. It’s just how they do things here. The law the judges (minus the dissenter) decided in their wisdom to apply is designed to regulate the bottom-feeders, those who in the usual fashion here have mortgaged their companies to the White Elephant franchise and gone out of business. Foreigners do this too - we’re not making an invidiously focused point.

But the Swedish company IKEA is a global operation. It hasn’t gone out of business. Its Indonesian operations might need a makeover - if so, it’s far from alone in overlooking that imperative - but its global brand name is extant. Its headquarters are in Leiden, The Netherlands, not in Surabaya, East Java, where Intan Khatulistiwa Esa Abadi plies its trade.

Life of George These things happen, but it can be a little embarrassing when they do. A chap we know who calls himself Richard got a note the other day from George Wright, national secretary of the Australian Labor Party. That wasn’t unusual. George writes to Richard regularly, about this and that and sundry other things. There was a twist, however, in this instance. The missive that the virtual postman dropped into the virtual mailbox was a little apology, on which George, bless him, had tried to put the best spin possible. A recent message he’d sent, it said, had addressed Richard as Riley, and he was writing to say he knew Richard was Richard and wasn’t Riley at all, and he was sorry about all this. He signed himself off as “George (not Riley)”. We thought that was a nice touch. Automated mail programs can be painful. They make you think of all sorts of things with which to complete a distempered exhortation that begins “R for…” Email Hector at hector.mcsquawky@yahoo.com or tweet with him on Twitter @ scratchings.

Bounce Mania Moves to a More Convenient Time Thursday - it’s a little further along the working week than hump day but soooo close to school being out that we feel it’s a day meant for fun! With Friday’s trampoline sessions a frequent sellout and Saturday’s social calendars often a steady stream of other engagements and commitments, the ever popular Mini Mania and Bounce Mania have now moved to Thursday evenings as well as their hugely popular Friday time slot. Now before you parents get all pursed lipped about it still being a ‘school night’, the team at Bounce understand that late is not necessarily great and, in an effort to help parents beat bedtime blues they have brought each session a little further forward on the clock. Not to worry junior adrenalin junkies, you still get the beneﬁt of the full two and three hour sessions, Thursdays just start and ﬁnish a little earlier so that you can complete

your school commitments and get in some serious tramp time too! The new schedule ramps up this month with the first week of February seeing Mini Mania commence on Thursdays from 4 - 6pm, followed by Bounce Mania from 6 -9pm and then After Dark slotting in from 7 - 10pm for those whose bedside lights can burn a little later. This Thursday afternoon programming for Bounce is also a terrific opportunity for parents to cash in on a session of active entertainment for their kids while they indulge in some social and sporting interaction of their own over at the Canggu Club with their Thirsty Thursday drink specials and sport. You could even find yourself heading home a little richer if you succeed in picking a winner with their weekly ‘Chase the Ace’ competition. Simply register your name with your drink purchase and you could get the chance to

win the jackpot when you pick the ace card. Each week the amount increases until the kitty is collected. What a bonus, it’s babysitting and a beaut night out for everyone in the one convenient venue! Fridays will still see the regular time slots in place for Mini Mania and Bounce Mania at 5-7pm and 7-10pm respectively, with After Dark only available on Thursday evenings. It’s fantastic exercise with proven health beneﬁts and at only Rp125,000 nett for each session, it is a ridiculously cheap alternative for secure and supervised entertainment for your young ones. Of course Canggu Club Platinum and Gold members still receive their usual twenty percent discount off this advertised price and Bounce socks can be purchased separately for Rp25,000 per pair. It is compulsory to wear Bounce socks for safety purposes. Places for Mini Mania and Bounce Mania tend to sellout quickly so be sure to arrive at Bounce Bali in plenty of time before each session in order to ensure your place. For further information on all Bounce sessions and this new schedule please contact the team at bouncebali.com or make a booking at reception.

Zero To Hero in its 5th year at AquaMarine Diving – Bali PADI Instructor as a 1-on-1 mentor who is also the one assisting in training them from Open Water Diver all the way to Divemaster.

AquaMarine’s eleven month PADI Divemaster Internship Program for Indonesian Citizens 2016 Program (also known as “Zero To Hero”) is now well underway at AquaMarine - Bali.

So far, they have already completed the PADI Open Water Diver Course and they are currently studying in order to complete the Advanced Open Water Diver Course within the week.

Two applicants were successful this year: Sari (25) originally from Central Java and Roy (22) originally from South East Sulawesi. Sari moved to Bali in order to join the internship. Before arriving on the island she worked with business planning in Jakarta. She completed her ﬁrst dives at Pulau Seribu (Thousand Islands) near Jakarta and immediately knew that she needed to pursue a career in diving instead of a corporate career. “My dream is to become a Rescue Diver”, Sari says. “Giving back to others as well as well as taking care of the ocean and the environment is close to my heart. I love adventure and moving to Bali has been a great experience so far!” Roy is no stranger to AquaMarine Diving – Bali as he joined the company in November 2014, working in the equipment room until joining the Internship. “ I became

Sari & Roy studying for the Advanced Open Water Diver Course

friends with some of the previous interns and listening to their stories and experiences inspired me to apply for the internship. I want to learn and grow as a person as well as a diver and I look forward to building on my knowledge every day”. Both Sari and Roy have been assigned an AquaMarine

The next step is facing various rescue scenarios, which are part of the obligatory Rescue Diver Course that has to be completed before finishing the PADI Divemaster Course. When finally having gained the Divemaster Certification they can start working as Dive Guides, under the supervision of AquaMarine’s senior staff. This ensures that they gradually take on increased levels of responsibility, and it also gives them a solid base for their future careers. AquaMarine Diving - Bali invites you to join Sari and Roy on one of the many trips they organise for divers and snorkellers. Their office is on Jalan Petitenget 2A, so pop in and chat with them today or give them a call on: +62 361 4738020 or visit their website: www.AquaMarineDiving.com

Reap Membership Rewards with CangguClub’s Payment Plan Moving to Bali, or anywhere else for that matter, can become a minefield of mounting costs. Up front payment of your lease in full, school fees, staff, electricity and added extras that seem to appear from nowhere means there’s little left in the kitty to put towards entertainment options or experiences that might make this often testing transition slightly less stressful. In addition to these fiscal factors, getting to know new people and finding secure and convenient places for your kids to meet new friends is vital to a sure and speedy assimilation into your new neighborhood. Granted, joining somewhere such as The Canggu Club is an ideal solution for many an island newbie’s social woes, but with all of the preliminary costs involved in relocation, the idea of forking out a lump sum fee for a family membership might seem a little out of reach. The team at The Canggu Club appreciate the costs involved in moving your family to a new country and in an effort to get you and yours into the groove a little faster, they are offering a new payment option for Canggu Club memberships. Instead of having to pay the usual joining fee up front in full, they are offering the option of a twelve month payment plan. That’s right! You can pay off your joining fee in a series of installments. Payments are only scheduled for every three months (attached to your monthly fees) and are completely interest free.

As if this isn’t enough to get you hightailing it into the Club reception, they are also offering an additional 40% discount off the joining fee for Gold and Platinum Memberships! Of course, all Gold and Platinum members also enjoy the added bonus of an extra 20% discount on spa treatments at Body Temple Spa, Bounce Trampoline Centre and Strike Bowling as well as free entry to Finn’s Beach Club, Uluwatu and 10% discount on food and beverage. What’s the catch? There isn’t one! As soon as you sign up you can immediately enjoy all of the benefits a Canggu Club membership has to offer: Splash Water Park, a fully equipped fitness club, gym and twenty five metre pool, member discounts on Junior Sports Academy tuition fees, fitness classes, all weather tennis courts, use of the business centre and fully fenced sporting field along with the peace of mind of knowing you and your family are safe in a secure environment. With this deal, you get to have your cake and eat it too! Experience everything this world class club has to offer while keeping some cash in your coffers a little longer. To find out more about how you can take advantage of this fabulous offer, see the membership team at The Canggu Club or email your enquiries to: membership@cangguclub.com

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris

Cutting Grass with Scissors? ‘Dear Garden Doctor, After years of renting apartments, I have taken the plunge and bought a house with an average size plot of lawn and now need to invest in a lawnmower. I have no idea what to look for but obviously want something reliable and easy to use. Wondering about petrol - 2 stroke or 4 etc, or are electric/battery ones worth considering? Any advice would be appreciated. Tim’ Have you ever seen the locals in Bali literally giving the grass a haircut with a large pair of scissors or garden shears? It’s quite a common sight, and I was left gobsmacked the ¿rst time I saw the gardener at the forecourt of Galleria on bended knees painstakingly trimming the grass with a large pair of garden shears. The results thus far looked amazing but to do the whole grounds must have taken him days on end, possibly weeks, and then he would have to start all over again! I have since seen it done this way in countless hotels, villas, and malls. Up at Kerobokan I once saw the gas station attendant in his thick overalls out the front of Pertamina on a blazing hot day, clove cigarette in hand trimming dead brown grass populated on bone dry dust, with nothing but a pair of large scissors. I didn’t know whether or not it was a joke, but he kept on diligently with the task whilst I looked on bewildered, the grass was already dead! Nowadays I don’t even bat an eyelid, ‘oh yeah there’s another guy cutting a ¼ acre block of turf with nothing but a pair of scissors, yeah that’s normal’. I wouldn’t have the skill, let alone the patience to maintain grass in this way, so enough about scissors, let’s talk about mowers. In the case of a small to average sized lawn I would opt for a battery powered mower, although there are cases where only a petrol mower will do.

Petrol - Most people go straight for a petrol mower, which will

usually be more powerful than the other options. I myself have converted to a battery powered mower, they are very good for small to averaged sized lawns. I ¿nally had enough of the petrol mower, after dealing with broken pull ropes, spark plugs and cans fuel. I can tell you that I don’t miss it at all.

Battery - Thank goodness times have changed and battery

powered options have improved delivering more reliability, power and value. Let’s assume that you don’t allow your grass to become a knee high jungle then a battery powered mower should be ¿ne, though it does have its limitations in that it may only run for 30mins to an hour so if you have a very large area than this option may be out. If you keep the lawn trimmed regularly battery powered mowers are great, no fumes, no petrol or cables to deal with, and much less noise. Since they’re quieter you can mow earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon than if you had a petrol one.

Electric - I personally avoid electric mowers. With electric you

have to be very careful of the cable, make sure it’s always behind you or wrapped over your shoulder, this slows you down and could even be fatal if you make a mistake and mow over it. Even for a small lawn let alone a large one, you will require multiple extension cables, which disconnect getting caught on obstacles such as rocks, paths and trees as you mow. You also wouldn’t want to mow if there is any moisture whatsoever on the ground as electricity and water don’t mix. Electric gets the thumbs down from me.

Manual - If you have a tiny lawn on even ground, then the old fashioned push reel mower is another option to consider. No petrol, no electricity, no battery, just good old fashioned elbow grease is the only power that this one requires. With no fumes, and no noise, the push reel mower has made a comeback of late, especially with people downsizing into townhouses and others reducing the size of their lawns to reduce their workload. This one is great if the lawn is regularly trimmed, it won’t perform well on taller grass. The advantage of the push reel mower is

that the only way it will break down is if you do ¿rst, so it will be reliable as long as you are!

Small lawns, multi-levels, and uneven ground - - If

you have a small lawn you could forget the lawnmower and opt for a line trimmer/ whipper snipper instead. Same as mowers, you can go for petrol, electric or battery powered. I go for battery powered in this case, for the same reasons outlined above. Line trimmers are good for small lawns, and useful if you have an uneven or rocky slope to maintain. Your mower blades won’t last long if you’re hitting rocks, and mowing on uneven ground inevitably leads to grazing the lawn down to bare earth. Terraced or multi levelled lawns can also be a pain to maintain because you may have to stop/start the mower and move it up or down steps, in this case you’re better off with a line trimmer your back will de¿nitely thank you for it later! Note, when choosing a battery powered appliance there can be large variations between power, charging and running time. Generally speaking, in the battery powered sphere of gardening machinery you get what you pay for, so sometimes it’s well worth it to outlay the extra cash for a more reputable brand or well reviewed product. Generally the cheaper options will have less power and running time, having said that, sometimes the expensive brands also have poor reviews for power and reliability. Make sure to do your research, read online product reviews. Avoid buying any product with less than a 12 month guarantee. The trend these days is for smaller lawns, they are easier to manage and don’t require so much water. Long grass attracts mosquitoes, insects, rodents and snakes, so do your best to prevent it getting to that stage. In the long run you may be better off to do away with the lawn or reduce it, and grow a garden instead. On the other hand having a large lawn is great if you have kids, pets, or even play golf, so what you decide to do in relation to your lawn size and what you will use to maintain it must take into account the whole myriad of factors. But in short, for a small to average sized lawn, give battery power a go, it’s less mess, less noise, less hassle. Who knows you may even ¿nd that you look forward to mowing when you have one of these. I for one am glad that I never have to pull one of those damn ropes again, my shoulder thanks me too, and I’m certainly not going to whip out the scissors anytime soon either!

I AM TAKING THIS VERY PERSONALLY You may have noticed that I went off the radar for the last issue of Bali Advertiser, right after another rant about dengue fever. Because then I had another bout of dengue fever.

well as thick clothing. If a mosquito is really determined to bite you she is very likely to succeed.

Modify the mosquitoes This is an interesting initiative by Eliminate Dengue (www. eliminatedengue.com), an international project with ¿eld trials taking place in five countries including Indonesia. Eliminate Dengue Indonesia is a collaborative research project between the Faculty of Medicine Gadjah Mada University, Monash University in Melbourne and Yayasan Tahija Indonesia. It began in 2011 with the aim of developing and trialing the Wolbachia control method to reduce dengue fever transmission in Indonesia.

Dengue is never an entertaining way to pass a week of one’s life. But combine it with heavy rain and two puppies that forgot they’d been housebroken and it makes for challenging times. It was a Friday afternoon, and a couple of friends had been over for tea. I was feeling ¿ne when they left about 4, but an hour later I was shivering under a wool blanket. It took about half an hour for the brain to kick in (dengue seems to turn off the thinking box completely) and just before dark I dragged myself into the garden with a shovel and dug up as much Bosenbergia rotunda/temu kunci root as I could ¿nd. It took a lot of washing to get the dirt off, which is a tricky procedure when you’re shaking and your eyes are crossing. But I got it fairly clean, whizzed it up in some ¿ltered water, strained it and drank it to the dregs. The next morning I did the same thing. And although the dengue unfurled in classic fashion it was nowhere near as severe as my ¿rst bout 14 months earlier. I really believe that starting the herbs immediately made a big difference. Dengue fever gives you plenty of time to lie around and think about things. As I memorised the pattern of the canopy on my Chinese bed I pondered how to prevent this from becoming an annual event. There has to be an option to constant infection. Although about 100 million of us are felled by dengue every year, I’m taking this very personally. I don’t intend to spend the balance of my life in the tropics as prey to some mindless insect. I mulled the options for avoiding dengue.

Eradicate the mosquitoes This doesn’t seem to be possible. In the rainy season there are hundreds of potential breeding sites; every fallen leaf or broken coconut shell is an incubator for the little blighters. And I live on a steep, heavily jungled and inaccessible ravine which is ideal habitat for them. My banjar, in fact, is Dengue Central. Fogging is useless as a mosquito control technique; it only reaches a small fraction of the adults and doesn’t affect the larvae. No one will tell me what chemicals they’re using so I imagine it’s DDT. Anyway, it doesn’t work. Even with extreme diligence around your house and garden you can’t prevent your neighbour’s mosquitoes from paying you a visit. And the more neighbours you have, the higher your chances of contracting dengue; dense human populations make it much easier for the virus to be transmitted.

Repel the mosquitoes After my ¿rst bout of dengue I researched every known mosquito repellent and tested most of them. Many of them work for a while but must be constantly re-applied. The most effective natural repellents are essential oils of citronella, tea tree, eucalyptus, catnip or geranium mixed with ethyl alcohol and water and sprayed on every few minutes. DEET is ineffective in concentrations under 20%, so why are the locally made brands only 10-12%?? I’ve seen these mozzies drill right through freshly applied repellents of all kinds as

Wolbachia is a bacteria that occurs naturally in up to 60% of insect species, and is known to reduce the ability of the Aedes aegypti mosquito to pass dengue between humans. (Inoculating mosquitoes with the bacteria doesn’t involve genetic modi¿cation, by the way; these are not Frankenbugs). The project initially released adult mosquitoes which had been inoculated with Wolbachia in Jogjakarta; it is now releasing mosquito eggs with the bacteria. By the end of the ¿rst year, 30% of the mosquitoes tested were carrying the bacteria and soon the numbers will be released for the past year; hopefully they’ll continue to increase and there will be a corresponding drop in the number of dengue fever cases in Jogjakarta. The community and local government strongly support this project. This is de¿nitely an initiative worth watching although it’s not going to address our local problem anytime soon.

The quercetin isolated from temu kunci was found to be speci¿cally effective against dengue fever. Get Vacccinated There’s no telling when the new vaccine will be available or how effective it will be. Anyway, it’s not recommended for people over 45.

Prevent the virus from replicating I’ve been digging deeper into the research and I’m convinced that taking Bosenbergia rotunda/temu kunci prophylactically is probably the only way to manage the dengue epidemic. We’re going to be bitten by infected mosquitoes for sure; hopefully taking a natural viral inhibitor will prevent the disease from developing. Temu kunci is a member of the ginger family that grows freely in Bali. Beneath its dark green leaves is a thick stem ending in a rosy root, and under this develops the distinctive rhizomes which are used as a medicine and culinary herb in Southeast Asia

and China. Temu kunci rhizomes contain high amounts of the Àavonoid quercetin. Quercetin occurs in many foods such as green and black tea, apple, onion, citrus and tomato but the quercetin isolated from temu kunci was found to be speci¿cally effective against dengue fever. According to the scienti¿c paper found at http://virologyj. biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1743-422X-8-560, “Our ¿ndings demonstrated that quercetin was the only compound among all tested flavonoids that consistently showed signi¿cant antiviral activity against DENV-2 in Vero cells.... A weak effect for prophylactic activity of quercetin was also observed...These ¿ndings suggest that the main anti-dengue activity of quercetin is likely due to its activity against the different stages of intracellular replication of DENV-2 instead of early stages of its replication cycle such as virus attachment or entry.” Just google bosenbergia rotunda quercetin antiviral - there’s a lot of research out there. (Not everyone should take quercetin. If you’re thinking of going this route, check the counter indications.) As soon as I was strong enough I went out with the spade and dug up the temu kunci plants that were spontaneously growing around my garden, about 50 in all. I rummaged out the rhizomes, then replanted the stems in a single bed where I can harvest the rhizomes periodically in future. The plants disappear during the dry season and reappear during the rainy/dengue season; it’s easy to lose track of them. The rhizomes snap off easily from the base of the plant or can often be found in the soil underneath. Wash well and zap in a blender with one cup water and one cup vodka. Store in a glass jar in a dark place for a week, shaking daily. Then strain off the solids and bottle the tincture in brown glass. I’m taking a dropperful twice a day. If you show early symptoms of dengue, I would suggest taking it every few hours. Tjokorda Gede Kerthyasa, a homeopathic doctor who is very knowledgeable about dengue, will soon be producing this tincture commercially. Will it work? We have nothing to lose by trying it, except another bout of dengue...

Does BCF offer job placement service for the kids?

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Margaret Barry: Founder Bali Children Foundation Based in Bali for over 25 years, Margaret Barry owns and manages a highly successful fashion business, MAGG Bali. Marg is also the inspirational founder and leader of the nonprofit Bali Children Foundation, locally known as Yayasan Samiarsa Seminyak. She has considerable experience in orphanage support, vocational and educational projects throughout Bali. It was her work in these ¿elds that led to the establishment of the foundation whose primary focus is to provide educational opportunities for young people in disadvantaged communities in remote parts of Bali. How did you come up with the idea of establishing a children’s welfare organization? My friends and I worked at Sanglah Hospital early on the day after the ¿rst Bomb in 2002. On that Sunday and in the following weeks I saw the extraordinary results achieved by volunteers working together to provide comfort for the injured and their families. The powerful synergy of Balinese, tourists and expats all working together made a lasting impression on me. I realized that this highly effective collaboration could be used for other purposes. Straight away I started work, which would eventually develop into BCF. In my travels around Bali I knew there were many disadvantaged communities here. In the early days we saw our work as one way to keep Bali safe. Did you have much support in setting up BFC? By the ¿rst anniversary of the Bali bomb in 2003, I already had supporters, including doctors I had met at Sanglah, who sponsored our ¿rst scholarships for children. The mix of visitors, expats and their businesses, business associates, bomb victims and their families and my Balinese friends provided the support and structure needed to develop the foundation. We worked from the ground up rather than top down. Valuable support from community leaders helped us establish our programs. This early groundwork was a huge part of BCF’s success. How do you directly help children? We specialize in offering education opportunities for kids in public junior and senior high schools until they graduate. We provide scholarships for 1,100 children including 43 in tertiary studies. We teach English and computer instruction in 17 locations across all the communities we service. This additional English and computer training make our students especially valuable to employers. These programs cover the scholarship students plus an additional 350 students attending classes twice weekly. In all we assist in educating over 1,600 Balinese children. Were all these programs an improvement over what existed before? Oh yes! When we started our BCF programs, the school districts we assisted had very high drop out rates at Grade 6 in elementary school. Rates of 40 – 60% were not uncommon in remote communities. The rates within a year after we introduced our programs adjusted to zero for the younger children. Our 1,100 scholarship students achieved 97% retention across all levels in 2015. That is typical of our annual rates in Bali villages.

The end goal of BCF’s involvement is to enable children to graduate from high school and get good paying jobs which improves their life, their family’s lives and the well being of their community. Getting well paid employment straight after school or after tertiary graduation is key. To ensure that objective we have developed ‘work ready’ programs for school leavers and ‘mentoring’ programs for tertiary students. We have had very good results. In 2015, school leavers were all employed or in tertiary programs within three months of ¿nishing high school. Several hundreds of our students have graduated since 2003. If a student takes a job that is not particularly well paid, they stay on the work ready program until they are able to ¿nd adequately paid employment. Are the children involved in any community projects? Absolutely. BCF senior students sign a community pledge to help BCF and their community on a ‘give back’ basis. This includes participating in clubs, temple cleaning and beach clean ups. Seniors also help us with our surveys in new communities that can only be accessed on tracks that even motorbikes can’t negotiate. Before scholarships are allocated, we survey every family to con¿rm their economic status and to check the family’s circumstances. Surveys are prepared by a BCF staff member and a senior BCF student who knows the district. A number of communities are Bali Aga. The language spoken in these villages often requires translation into regular Balinese or Indonesian. Students help with that task, too. How does BCF pay for all its activities and services? Through fund raising activities, philanthropy and sponsorship programs for our scholarship students. We do not make payments on an open basis. Funds are paid to suppliers for the services required. Projects are costed and reviewed regularly. We run BCF using Xero accounting software. Our books are externally audited and the reports are posted on our website.

If someone gives a donation, will they be able to keep track of the children they are sponsoring? BCF sponsors receive a copy of their child’s school report accompanied by a letter or drawing each semester. Sponsors are also able to visit their children on Open Village Days hosted by BCF each month. Visitors must register in advance. A BCF staffer accompanies all visitors. Letter or email exchange is available and must be via BCF. Can you give examples of how BCF has substantially improved the lives of children it has helped? As we work in big numbers the results are signi¿cant. Each of the 43 students currently at University, as well as all our previous Uni graduates, has a great story to tell. Many of our employed graduate students boast about the family bathroom built, beds provided, roof replaced, etc. after short periods in full time work. Most signi¿cantly, the communities we ¿rst started in need less and less BCF assistance as their sustainable education outcomes through employment kick in. We would love to work ourselves out of a job!

Puri Agung Karangasem: Glimpse Inside a Royal Residence Royalty, unlike celebrity, has a magic all its own that endures through time long after the founding dynasty has expired. Once the richest kingdom in Bali, Puri Agung Karangasem traces its origins back to a 16th C. Balinese prime minister known as Batan Jeruk. During the waning days of the Gelgel dynasty in the late 16th C., this rajadom rose to the pinnacle of its power.

The rajah bought one of the Model T Fords with right-hand drive that were imported into the Dutch East Indies, equipping his with a larger radiator tank for better cooling in the hot tropical climate. In 1925, the rajah made a legendary road trip to Solo with a large retinue of artists, dancers, musicians and his own personal cook in tow to attend a wedding of two of Java’s most powerful kraton (palace) families. With over 600 ha of land to his name, the rajah was Bali’s biggest landowner before independence. But following the establishment of the republic, new Land Reform laws passed in the ‘50s and ‘60s forbade anyone from owning more than 5 ha of rice¿elds and 6 ha of dry land. Even after dividing much of his land between his sons, the rajah still lost a considerable amount of his assets. A Medley of Architectural Styles

The seat of the prosperous kingdom centered on its puri in the small city of Amlapura at the foot of the holy Mount Agung on the coast of east Bali. To the visitor, this trading community has lost its sleepy air of years past and has become the commercial and administrative center of Karangasem Regency as well as a major transport hub for all of east Bali. Of Amlapura’s ¿ve historic palaces, Puri Agung Karangasem has always been the most powerful. A tour of this grand palace is a snapshot into the life of the last rajah’s extended family and opens a window onto an era when lords ruled with unquestioned authority. Contrary to the image of Bali seen through the rosetinted glasses of Westerners as an island of peace and harmony, a people living in an earthly paradise, Bali actually has a turbulent history of power building and conÀict between kingdoms. While the glory of this royal complex has faded, with portions in dire need of maintenance - fountains have stopped spouting and dragons and serpents sit stonily with wide-open mouth - the inner precincts still give insight into the noticeable role that European inÀuence has had on this part of the world. A visit is also essential in understanding the interplay between the colonialists, the feudal mindset of Bali’s aristocratic class and the crucial place that the House of Karangasem has played in Bali’s modern history. This kingdom ruled for centuries over all of east Bali and west Lombok. The last rajah of Karangasem I Gusti Bagus Jelantik’s time on earth spanned from his birth in an independent Balinese kingdom of the late 19th C. to his passing at age 79 in the new Republic of Indonesia. The kingdom survived the jostling for status and power in early times, witnessed the invasion of the Dutch and the breakup into nine Balinese kingdoms in the early 20th C., the defeat of the colonialists in 1942, endured the brutal years of Japanese occupation, saw the remarkable turnaround from warring adversaries to allies against the semi-independence of the returning Dutch, lived through the political maneuverings and intrigues in the formation of the postwar state of East Indonesia (Negara Indonesia Timor) and the new nation’s federal system of government, ¿nding its place as part of the republic, and ¿nally living on in the splendid decay of the present. I Gusti Bagus Jelantik ruled the island’s easternmost regency in an era when being a king meant absolute power over his subjects who prostrated themselves at his feet. In the 19th C., the kingdom owed its wealth mainly to the fact that its raja cooperated with the Dutch invaders, thus saving the rajah’s title and autonomy. One of the rajah’s jobs was collecting excise taxes on opium for the Dutch occupiers, part of which went towards his own income. Although the Dutch had abolished widow-sacri¿ce and slavery, they continued to maintain and promote the opium trade because of the immense pro¿ts it brought. Opium was Bali’s ¿ rst import commodity and the colonialists established their own set of laws in efforts to monopolize this valuable source of income.

Also known as Puri Kanginan, the large complex is surrounded by a thick redbrick wall. We entered the environs by climbing up a narrow staircase and walking through an elaborate candi bentar three-tiered entry gate and past a nearby sentry box. I paid the entry fee to several ladies at a table and then was free to walk the connecting alleyways, under wonderfully sculpted panels and stone carvings, around a large pond and various other pavilions and bale including one where the bodies of members of the royal family are laid to prepare for pelebon. Unlike the cremations of former rajahs, future ones will not require the sacri¿ce of a rhinoceros. At one time the palace was bigger. During the month-long volcanic eruption of Mount Agung in 1963 massive lava streams cut paths of destruction through almost all of eastern Bali. Although the lava did not reach the palace itself, the accompanying whirlwinds and earthquakes destroyed many of its original buildings. The prevailing nostalgic air of slow decay gives a hint of the rare¿ed world of the old feudal lords in the heyday of Balinese royalty in the early 20th Century.

royal pavilion, displays Edwardian decorations and a long veranda. It was constructed in the Dutch style with formal rooms used mainly for storing instruments and equipment to entertain visitors on c e r e m o n i a l occasions. Over the entrance is a widely reproduced 1939 photograph of the mustachioed rajah taken at a time when the district was granted limited self-rule by the Dutch. All the former king’s clothes and belongings are preserved under lock and key. Bale London was given this curious name because its furniture is decorated with what the rajah thought to be the British royal crest. David Bowie is another British connection. The celebrated musical innovator spent time in the puri in 1989-1991 and even recorded with his band Tin Machine a song called Amlapura (https://youtu. be/7QruOyj2nVs). Yet another world-renowned artist hosted at the palace was Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941), the ¿rst nonWesterner to receive the Nobel Prize in 1913. Even though they didn’t share a common language, the rajah and the great Bengali poet spoke Sanskrit together, uttered the same mantras and pondered over weighty eternal questions of Nirvana. I could really get a sense of this family’s trajectory through war, marriage, intrigue, lethal rivalries between princes, betrayals and conspiracies and political opportunism. The aged “lived-in” state of the palace made the atmosphere more genuine. It refreshing that the buildings were not over-restored, giving them more of a rare¿ed quality in comparison to many of Bali’s palace museums. This is a fully functioning puri. As many as 150 people still live inside the grounds. Most sections are closed to public, as they are private residences that have been set-aside and are still occupied by members of the royal family who are seen carrying on with their normal daily routines. Residents include the rajah’s grandson, Anak Agung Ardana, who produces brightly colored cubist-style paintings. I wandered unintentionally into what was clearly a private family courtyard, but was greeted with just smiles and laughter. Practicalities

The last rajah had 12 wives and 38 progeny. One old photograph shows his huge family filling the terrace in front of the Maskerdam. This building has not been occupied since the death of I Gusti Bagus Jelantik in 1966. The set of deteriorating furniture in the reception hall was donated to the family in 1914 by Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, whom the rajah considered his equal. As a part of an exchange of gifts, the rajah transferred to the queen the equivalent of US$1,200,000 in today’s dollars. The last rajah’s residence and adjoining gardens are open to the public and average 600-700 visitors per month. The atmosphere is calm and peaceful. The traditional bale (pavilion) standing as an island in the middle of a pond that occupies a large area of the site. Perhaps the palace’s most striking building, this pavilion known as Gili (“island”) is nowadays utilized mostly for performances. Puri Agung Karangasem was built in 19th Century by Anak Agung Gede Jelantik, the ¿rst king of the Karangasem royal line. You can quite easily see the harmonious combination of three different building styles - European, Chinese and Balinese architecture and interior design – that were used in various stages of its construction. The carved Hindu statues and the wall reliefs of the main building are quite obviously Balinese motifs and symbols, while Chinese-style ornaments and Àourishes can be found on the window and door. European inÀuence can be seen on the main building and its large veranda. The largest and most striking structure is Bale London, the main

Puri Agung Karangasem is open Mon.-Thu. 7 am-3 pm; Fri. 7 am to 12 pm.. Entrance fee Rp20,000 including info sheet. Rather than visiting the palace as a stand-alone attraction, you should also visit the Tirtagangga and Ujung water palaces built by the same royal family on the same day. This overall tour puts all the sites in their proper context. Groups visit Puri Agung Karangasem usually as a part of an organized tour of the Amlapura that also includes the Bali Aga village of Tengenan. The Last Rajah of Karangasem, published by the Puri Karangasem Historical Society (Rp280,000 at Ganesha and Periplus bookstores), explains the layout of the puri; the main functions and features of the principle buildings, pavilions and temples and the origins of the furniture, gifts and heirlooms. The Puri Agung Karangasem (www.purikarangasem.com) is a community website site by and for the extended family of the last Raja of Karangasem, H.H.

“That Sinking Feeling”

As adults most of us have occasional fears of planes falling out of the sky or ships sinking to bottom of the sea. I remember a particularly terrifying trip on a rust bucket they called a ferry from Sumbawa to Lombok which prompted several members of our expedition to take rather frequent rests (in the rest room). It was even more scary than Donald Trump. We all have a fundamental need to feel supported and the most basic support is to have our feet on firm ground. So bear a thought for a woman I met recently. As she walked into her bedroom one day her heart sank, but so did her feet, her legs, her body and her head didn’t get left behind either. She lost her balance and dropped the apple she was carrying which, strangely, rolled to the centre of the room and what had for some time only been a mere hint that something was amiss suddenly became abundantly clear.

form the subfloor.

If the house is raised up above aground level the ground under the house will have to be contained by some kind of retaining wall. If this retaining wall is not correctly designed and is not strong enough to contain the earth under the house the weight of the building may break the retaining walls allowing the earth to spread and the house to subside. I recently saw a Joglo with this problem.

Her bedroom floor looked like a giant wok. Rather like Indonesia’s abundant plastic being drawn into the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the contents of her bedroom were on the move - towards the centre of the room. Her floor was sinking.

Waterproofing Membranes

I have seen a quite number of rooms like this over the years, it is a surprisingly common problem here in Indonesia. In some cases the phenomenon of sinking floors is claimed to be due to paranormal activity which, in reality, means it is due to a genetic disposition suffered by building contractors that stimulates an insane desire to save trifling amounts of money regardless of the fact that this may result in major expense or catastrophe being incurred later on.

A waterproofing membrane should be installed under the concrete floor to prevent capillary action drawing moisture up through the floor from the ground beneath. The membrane should be a single piece, if you are lining a fishpond using several sheets overlapped at the joins it will not work - it won’t work under a floor. Unfortunately very large single sheets of plastic membrane and very difficult to come by in Indonesia.

So what can make a floor unstable. • Poor compaction of the ground or fill under the floor. • Underfloor fill being expansive clay that will expand and contract between the wet and the dry season. • Failure of foundation retaining walls if the floor is set above ground level. • Inadequate or even lack of a subfloor, usually a concrete layer that forms the foundation for the floor finish. • Poor drainage that allows water to flow through the ground under the floor and wash out the fill. • Organic materials (such as tree branches or other vegetation) buried in the earth used to fill the site before construction. • Tree roots growing under the floor. Problems can start before the house is built with bad filling of an uneven site. It is best to level a building site before filling then putting in a 1 metre thick layer of crushed stone or gravel under the area where the building is to be constructed. If the site is filled it is a very good idea to let it settle for a year before construction starts. If you buy land but don’t plan to use it just yet fill it now so it can be settling ready for construction later. Remember that any organic material in the fill (such as tree trunks) will rot away leaving voids in the ground that can lead to subsidence later. When building a house it is common practice to build stone foundation walls then cast concrete ground beams on top of these walls, these beams will tie the bottom of structural columns together and form the base of the building’s structural frame. The areas between the ground beams are usually filled (it might be soil, clay, gravel, sand, rubble or rocks) and then a thin layer of lean mix concrete (lean - not much cement) sometimes with a light steel mesh is cast to

Drainage Poor drainage can be disastrous for any building. As we all know rainfall here can be very heavy and can undermine the foundations of buildings. You may also get water flowing underground that you are not aware of that can wash out the ground under the floors and result in subsidence. You need to make sure that drainage around your buildings is well designed and managed, this is particularly important if your building is on a slope or near rice fields.

Generally, however, such problems are the result of inadequate or incompetent building design and/or construction. A group of villas we regularly work in are typical. The villas are generally well designed and built, the structures are sound and the finishing is good but they all have two significant problems - flat concrete roofs that leak and unstable floors. It is very unfortunate because the floors were originally finished in beautiful terrazzo panels with coconut wood joints. The floor panels have a tendency to move by varying degrees and in many cases moisture coming up between the joints has seriously stained the terrazzo. The problem is that the terrazzo lies directly on top of compacted rubble with no concrete or steel mesh to reinforce it. The problem can only be resolved by taking up the floors and starting again. In fact this is not difficult and a new sub floor is not expensive but the tragedy is in the loss of the expensive finishing - in this case the beautiful terrazzo.

Petitenget

This is common practice in Indonesia but, as many people have found, it is generally inadequate. The layer of weak concrete can crack easily and usually cannot withstand even small stresses that may lift or subside the floor. In addition the steel may rust, termites may easily penetrate the floor and, not being sufficiently, waterproof moisture can rise through it from the ground beneath. The joints between the weak concrete subfloor and the surrounding ground beams are particularly vulnerable areas.

Denpasar

I suppose most former little boys can remember having the occasional dread of disappearing into the ground. We all go through it don’t we, a phase of thinking we will be swallowed up by sinking sand, sucked into a bog or vanishing down a crack in the ground during an earthquake. For a while it seems all consuming, anyone would think you’d find sinking sand on every street corner.

Tree roots

C/Bm/I-27 May 15

As most people know the strength of tree roots is amazing. You only have to go and have a look at places such as Ankor Wat to see that even substantial construction cannot hold back nature. Tree roots can do extensive damage to a house or any structure for that matter. If tree roots get close underneath the ground beams or floors of your house they can do a lot of damage so it is a good idea to go around your house and check for roots of trees and shrubs. If you find roots cut them off to stop them growing.

Repairing sunken floors As always in repair work it is important to understand and address the fundamental causes of a problem. It may be that floor subsidence is simply due to settlement after the building has been completed and, once settled, the ground will become stable and won’t move anymore. Experience says that this is only the case in a few situations. In the majority of cases once the floor has started to move it will probably continue to move. It may only be possible to identify the cause of floor subsidence by removing the floor and seeing what is underneath. We need to consider the possible causes I have listed, determine which is relevant and then engineer solutions that correctly address the problem. Don’t take anything for granted.

C/Bm/I-03 Feb 16

New Building When building from scratch it may be a good idea to construct the floors in a different way. Instead of casting floor panels between the ground beams of the building it is easy to cast the floor as a single slab right through the house across the top of the ground beams. Such a slab should be full strength concrete with a good solid steel mesh used to reinforce it, two layers of mesh in the concrete (this is always used in upper concrete floors) considerably increases strength and is a good idea if there are cavities or other weaknesses in the ground below the floor. This design may cost more (not a lot more) but will provide a stronger more stable floor and will provide an effective barrier against moisture and termite penetration.

Question: About a year ago I got into a relationship with a Western man who was here on holiday. He came back a few times and, even though he is a great guy, he was mean to my family and friends. At first I thought it was because he was far away from home, but I went to visit him in his home country, and he was verbally and emotionally mean to me there too. I begged him to stop, and he didn’t. Now, he is back in Bali again, I asked him to stop being mean, and he yelled at me for asking him to stop. I am numb. I started letting myself fall for another guy who I casually flirted with online. He lives in Bali and has more in common with me. Now that my Western boyfriend can sense a problem, he is acting nice and loving. I said a few times I would try and love him because he throws stuff around when I try to break up with him. How do I tell him I don’t want to try anymore? Should I get more serious with my casual flirting friend if it feels right? Dr. ZZ: From your email, it is unclear whether you and your Western boyfriend live together, or whether he has access to your living space. If either of these situations pertains, you need to get yourself to a safe place that he doesn’t have access to. Pack up what you need when he’s not around, and make sure you are in a safe place with family/ friends as soon as possible. You need to break up with this verbally and emotionally mean man, and be sure you are safe and far away from him when you deliver the news. Tell him that your feelings towards him have changed, that you need to break up, and that you don’t think the two of you should talk, write or remain in contact. Thank him for his understanding, and then block all his emails, messages, and texts. De-friend/ block him on all social media, and never see or speak to him again. Tell your family/friends that you are breaking up with him, and that you don’t want to have any contact with him; let them “have your back.” You don’t have to explain or get him to acknowledge or apologize for his behavior. You don’t owe him a discussion or a face-to-face conversation. Your feelings have changed; that’s enough. Disengage completely, get the support of family/friends on your side, and dump this character. Only then can you possibly think about getting serious with your flirting friend. If that gives you reason to hope for something better and to get out of the relationship with the abusive Westerner, fine; but I recommend giving yourself time to process everything that has happened before you get serious with someone else. If he’s right for you, he will respect that and move at your pace.

Question: My friend is obsessed with a man who has never even spoken to her. She spends hours daydreaming about him, and I am concerned how seriously she has let this affect her life. She first encountered him at the Galeria when he stepped aside to let her pass on the escalator. Their eyes met, and she felt as if they had an intense connection. After another couple of incidents when she encountered him at a restaurant and on the street - a time when she describes him as staring at her and looking sort of shocked to see her - she says she feels as if he has feelings for her too. Mind you, they have never spoken a word. Now, she has announced to her boyfriend of 10+ years that she had fallen in love with somebody else, and she has began to end their relationship. Through friends and the Internet, she discovered that the mystery man is married and has a baby, but she continues to obsess about him - to the point of writing him an ambiguous note, to which she has never received a reply. She reads her own tarot cards constantly for any possible signs.

I have tried to be supportive as she has been going through some tough stuff with her family (addiction, terminal illness, property issues, difficult dynamics); so I’ve been cutting her slack. But this man has become the focus of many of our conversations. I listen as much as I can, but I’m puzzled about how I should respond, and I’m concerned about how much this has affected some serious parts of her life. What is a good friend supposed to do here? Dr. ZZ: Your friend is way over the line. Being a good friend does not mean endlessly listening without ever disagreeing or raising concerns. My advice is that you stop listening to her talk about this guy, and do your part to stop enabling her obsession. Let her know that you’re uncomfortable discussing him, that from what she has shared with you, you see no indication that he feels the same way about her as she does about him, and that you’re worried she may create physical or emotional harm if she continues these attentions. Then change the subject.

NC/BM/I-14 Oct 15

If she’s not willing to change the subject too, then you need to hang out with her less or not at all. You can’t control what she does, or how she feels, but you can control how it affects you and how much you are willing to engage. If the two of you are close enough, recommend counseling. Clearly she is overly invested and having a disproportionate reaction. She may need some help sorting this through.

How to Reinvent Yourself Whether it is a case of physical rejuvenation, spiritual rebirth, a mental make-over, ¿nding a new direction in life or a career change, the sheer abundance of programs promising a better version of yourself is the stuff of dreams for any wanna-beborn-again enthusiast. Ranging from active or passive body remodeling, inspirational and motivational retreats, ¿nding stairways to heaven, building your new inner-passion career - these programs are designed for all types of people and budgets. Inside & Out. Glance at the adverts in local publications to get an idea of the many rejuvenation services that are available here. The beauty and spa columns, the ads for reshaping your face, parts or all of your body, the rewards waiting for you with the newest rejuvenation or anti-aging techniques: they all claim to make you feel 10 years younger, become a seductive vixen or Adonis, create instant sex appeal, and have you become a new you. Other come-hither ads promise spiritual rebirth, inner peace in 5 sessions, the divulging of cosmic secrets to attain all you wish and desire, and all the tools you need to secure your fast-track to nirvana. More prosaic and practical make-overs are on offer too - like a guided career change, a best path to in¿nite riches – after all, the cosmos is one of abundance and you certainly have the right to claim your share. What underpins most of those offers is an appeal to our innate and subliminal desire to change what we see lacking in ourselves or to ¿nd a new direction in life that will do away with the malaise we feel in not being perfect like the people in the advertisements, or in not having achieved in life what we set out to do, or the realization that we pursued a direction we have become disenchanted with. Why change? The underlying reason for wanting to reinvent yourself could be the desire to push yourself to the next level; or maybe your life’s mission or interests have changed or evolved; you are experiencing an ill-¿t with the path you chose; perhaps you’re bored; perhaps you have burnt a few too many bridges; or desperately need money and looking for a quick ¿x; some people just want to escape their present life and the people in it. A good case in point is the desire for a career-change. The career-change experts extol the virtues of pursuing your hobby or your passion and turn it into a career instead of accepting the drudgery of a salaried job. Find something that resonates with your passion, they say, and the money will follow. It takes a bit of hard grunt work to reinvent yourself and create a new life. Sometimes it involves learning new skills and techniques, even an entire new trade. An amusing article I came across on the internet claims that it takes 7 years to develop, master and monetize a new skill. In an average human lifespan let’s say 88 years - you have 11 opportunities to learn an entire set of new skills, and by extension, create an entire new life for yourself. Let’s say you start at age 11 – which may be a tad precocious for most of us, but hey, the author tries to make his point – and every 7 years you switch gears, you can trump the cat with only 9 lives. The trick is to consider each of those 7-year spans as a brand new life. Which means you have a 7-year life span to become a master chef, the next one to write sonnets, another span to dream up a world-shocking invention, the next one to become an astronaut. You get the idea. In that context, you can pursue all your dreams - all 11 of them – and ideally make enough money with each one to get on with the next life. Just think what you can do with 11 solid lives. The cat’s got nothing on you. How to go about it – The internet teems with motivationbuilding and mentoring sites that will help you on your way. You could choose the DIY way or engage a mentor. The best mentors are those who have successfully reinvented themselves many times over and attained

higher levels each time they’ve gone through their paces. The epitome of the reinvention technique is handsomely embodied by Bali expat Tah Riq who more than deserves the title of Master Reinventor and is known as someone who continually seeks to improve himself and his life conditions through deliberate intention and by design. Tah Riq’s story is inspiring. Starting his professional career as a computer salesman, he became bored and went looking for something that stirred his passion. He discovered parkour, an exciting sport that quickly became a way of life for him. He created the ¿rst indoor parkour centre in southeast Asia right here in Bali. Not content with the early success of this venture, Tah Riq developed some of his other sizeable talents and became a sought-after performer of classical and Àamenco guitar, successfully tried his hand at modeling, wrote a children’s book, won 1st place at international poetry slams. Tah Riq is also a poet, a rapper, a motivational speaker and is helping businesses rebrand themselves. His crème de la crème accomplishment so far though has been the creation of the not so ordinary SuperHero Factory, an innovative successor to his earlier parkour venture and which he describes as “collaborative group enjoyment in a purpose-built environment full of physical obstacles which are designed as analogies to challenges you face in life. When you learn to overcome these obstacles, your life challenges dissolve and you have the added bonus of getting super ¿t along the way.” Tah Riq has priceless advice for those who yearn to reinvent themselves. At the core is acquiring the skill of reverse-engineering any complex task you want to master. Which amounts to deconstructing the goal you set yourself, breaking it into smaller component parts and becoming competent at each part before you combine them back into the complex whole. Tah Riq who is also dubbed as “Mr. Master Manifestor” has been seeking out and developing tools to deliberately manifest his desires into reality and has now begun teaching others to do the same, sharing this knowledge with others through his website www.tahriq.com and in private sessions. Here he shares some insight on the process of reinventing yourself and constructing the ideal version of yourself by transforming the habits of your present self. How To Reinvent Yourself, According To Tah Riq. Step 1 - ASK YOURSELF WHY, WHY WHY? Why do you want to change? Why reinvent yourself? Why not stay as you are? What’s wrong with you now? What is it about yourself you don’t like or wish to change? Without having a strong enough why, something that stirs you to your soul, there can be no lasting change. However a strong enough why can dissolve all peer pressure and other counter-inÀuencing factors. Find your own why. Something personal to you. Then you are ready for step 2. Step 2 - GET TO KNOW THE NEW YOU. Who is this ideal self you wish to become? What do they look like? How do they dress? What food do they eat? Whom do they spend time with? What books do they read? How do they respond during moments of challenge? What are they like under pressure? How do they speak? Do they meditate? Do they contribute and help others? It is vitally important to understand and have a map of this new person you wish to step into. Know them intimately. Use your imagination. It is your preview of the future. Write down all there is to know about the different facets of their behavior, mannerisms and so on.

By Ines Wynn

Step 5 – DESIGN YOUR ROAD MAP TO CHANGE. Tackling each area of your life, see what you can begin doing today to move yourself closer to this new you. Remember to only tackle one major area at a time. Too many changes won’t stick. Do things in small increments. For example if your ideal self goes for a 5k run each morning, start with a 10 minute jog. If your ideal self meditates an hour a day, start with 15 minutes. Pick one objective and break it down in manageable baby steps. Commit to this new habit for at least 60 days. This will anchor it. Step 6 – BE TOUGH ON YOURSELF. Do not accept other people’s standards as good enough if they are not good enough for your ideal self. For example, if everyone says cutting out alcohol is a bit extreme but you know it’s important for you then be satis¿ed only when you’ve completely cut it out. At the same time you need to reward yourself for every little accomplishment. Step 7 – GO THROUGH YOUR LIFE ONE AREA AT A TIME. Once you’ve done this with one sphere of your life you can use this same formula to transform other areas of your life. So within a year you can literally have a new life, looking and feeling how you want to. Step 8 – IT’S A WARRIORS PATH. Understand it requires a lot of will power; it is hard to go against the tide and against the social expectations of others. People will constantly test you and challenge your resolve. They want you to crack because it reassures them about the choices they are making. If you display the strength to change something about yourself that others have come to expect from you they can ¿nd it threatening on an inner level. Step 9 – HAVE SOME BACK UP. Start looking for mentors, people, books, blogs, online communities of people who have made the changes you also wish to make. Associate with more people who epitomize the new shoes you are stepping into. Avoid places and people that anchor you in your old modes of thinking and behaving, at least initially until the new habits have solidi¿ ed. Tune out any advice, misunderstandings, temptations and comments that do not ¿t in your new plan. Step 10 – ENJOY EVERY STEP. Once you begin to do things as your ideal self it will f e e l R E A L LY GOOD. You will feel on purpose and aligned with a higher life. Use this as fuel and motivation to keep going. Celebrate each new incremental success. LIVE YOUR DREAM AND TAKE CALCULATED RISKS. YOU ARE CREATING YOUR LIFE WITH EVERY CHOICE, NOW.

Step 3 – AUDIT YOURSELF. This is the accountability check. Make an honest appraisal of who you are now, in different spheres of your life. Do you look how you want to look? Feel as you want to feel? Think as you want to think? Take a long hard look at yourself and make a list of who you presently are. This is hard work because it requires hard thinking.

Like Tah Riq and others who have reinvented themselves, you too can learn how to construct your own reality show and record your transformation from ordinary to the highest possible vision of yourself. For starters check out www.TahRiq.com and the transformational playground-gym The SuperHero Factory at www.shfbali. com

Step 4 – HOW LONG IS THE BRIDGE? Examine the distance between your current self and your ideal self. See how far off you are in each area of your life. Examine looks, health, ¿nances, career, relationships, intellectual pursuits, ability to face challenge etc. Score yourself. If your ideal self is a 9 or 10 in each department, how does your current self score?

Good News! Almonds to be Cheaper …that’s if they pass on the savings

For Bali’s almond lovers, and they are legion, good news is nigh. The cost of our currently pricey protein-packed nuggets may not only fall, but may stay lower for a decade to come. The much loved-and lately rather expensive-nut is about to get cheaper. The wholesale price for almonds-the one paid by supermarkets to stock their bulk bins, or by processors to make their trail mixes-has fallen from a high of $4.70 per pound last August down to $2.60, according to the Financial Times.

Does the state have the water resources-or a suf¿cient bee population for pollination-to continue devoting ever more land to our most favoured nut? Unlike vegetables or cotton, which can be fallowed during dry years, planting an almond grove requires farmers to commit to ¿nding a steady water source for about 20 years, or risk losing a very expensive investment. According to the Almond Board of California, establishing an almond grove-paying for land, saplings, an irrigation system, etc.-costs about $8,700 per acre, or about $2.6 million for a new 300-acre grove. During the prolonged drought, water from California’s massive irrigation projects, which deliver melted Sierra Nevada snow to the state’s farms, was largely cut off. Farmers responded by fallowing a portion of annual crops like cotton and vegetables and irrigating the rest-including their ever-expanding almond groves-with water drawn from ¿nite underground aquifers. While the current El Niño might spell the end of a drought that has haunted California since 2012, California agriculture has become so ravenous for water that aquifers in its largest (and most almond-centered) growing region, the Central Valley, have been declining steadily for decades.

After years of steady price increases, thanks in large part to sky-rocketing demand almond prices, which reached record highs early last year, have fallen by about 25 percent compared with late 2014. The reason has nothing to do with the rather ill-tempered and ill-founded attacks in the media last year scape-goating the supposed excesses of fashionable almond milk latte drinkers driving up almond prices for the rest of us. Rather, it’s the same set of forces that triggered California’s massive almond boom in the ¿rst place: climate and the vagaries of global demand. California’s growers, who churn out 99 percent of almonds grown in the United States, have rapidly expanded their almond groves over the past decade and a half. But that expansion didn’t happen just to satisfy a surge in the trendy almond-milk latte habit. California farmers are almond growers to the world. They supply about 80 percent of the almonds consumed globally, and export demand has risen steadily for most of the past 15 years. About 70 percent of California’s almonds are exported. According to the Almond Board of California, the great bulk of this massive outÀow goes to Asia, the destination of 44 percent of California’s almond exports, and Western Europe, which gets about 40 percent.

The question is how long can growers keep devoting ever more land to almonds despite the long-term water crunch? The laconic answer from an informed source, is “it stops when the crop stops making money.” That means under normal conditions, when water is Àowing from the state’s irrigation projects, the break-even farmer price for almonds is about US$1.45 per pound-at that price, farmers neither lose nor make money. But when water is scarce, farmers face higher irrigation costs, and the break-even price rises to somewhere between $2.60 and $2.85-roughly where prices are now. So even with the current price drop, most almond growers are breaking even. But if there’s another wet winter this year, water prices could drop by 2017 and almond farmers will be right back in the money.

As a result of that booming global demand, the price farmers get for almonds has risen dramatically despite the big acreage expansion. But in recent months, the global appetite for almonds has plunged. According to a recent Financial Times report last year’s surge in prices depressed demand, and buyers in China, the Middle East and India, who have led consumption over the past three to four years, have disappeared. Trading has ground to a halt as prices continue to decline and the number of rejected containers by buyers Even with the Asian and European appetite for almonds refusing to honor contracts has jumped. returning to normal growth rates almond expansion is likely “It’s a bloodbath,” one California-based nut trader told the to continue unabated, which will in turn limit large upward FT. What happened was that California’s multiyear drought price swings as supply rises to meet demand. The limiting took a bite out of crop yields, making almonds more scarce factor, of course, is water. Back in 2014, California ¿nally and pushing up their price. Then, in 2014, the US dollar managed to shake off its history of cowboy aquifer began to rise in value against major Asian currencies and stewardship and passed the Sustainable Groundwater the Euro, making US exports, including almonds, even more Management Act, which requires that by 2025, the state’s aquifers cannot be drawn down faster than they’re rechargedexpensive in those regions. a dramatic and much-needed reversal of the status quo. To make matters worse, the European economy stagnated, and China-the globe’s biggest almond importer-saw its “From my observation, most almond operations are not economic growth slow and stock market tumble. Snack planning for this policy,” observed one jaundiced industry makers in Asia and Europe began to balk at pricey almonds, observer, meaning they’re not prepared for a future when putting fewer in nut mixes and reducing the portion size of aquifers can’t be tapped at will. almond offerings. In 2015, almond exports to Asia and Western Europe fell 12 percent and 7 percent, respectively, But 2025 is nearly a decade away.

Beauty & Health By Shari

HEALTHY & BEAUTIFUL AT SOHAM WELLNESS CENTER SOHAM Wellness Center is probably the largest wellness center in Bali housed in a huge 2000 square meters four story new building which is home to a spacious modern spa, large fully equipped modern Hi-tech ¿tness center, a spacious dedicated yoga room with 4 to 5 yoga classes a day, Pilates and break dance and contemporary dance classes. A special ¿ght room for Capoeira (for children and adults), boxing and Tai Chi. In the Group Classes room is offered new to Indonesia, Brazilian C i r c u i t Tr a i n i n g t o sculpt a fabulous upper and lower body with a special focus on the gluts. They also have classes for Body Sculpt/ butt & abs and ballet ¿t for a lithe, Àexible dancer’s body. All of the personal trainers are certi¿ed. I must admit all of the classes sounded enticing like my body could certainly bene¿t from all of them. Outdoors is a spectacular Olympic size swimming pool with a poolside organic café. Relax after a workout or before a spa treatment in the relaxation area which includes steam, sauna and hot and cold plunge pools. Off the entrance lounge is their own lifestyle boutique carrying ¿tness wear, jewelry and Thalgo spa products. SOHAM is taken from the Sanskrit for ‘I am He’ according to Vedic philosophy it means identifying oneself with the universe or the divine energy. Their slogan is - Unity, Connection, Oneness. SOHAM takes a very holistic approach to health in all of their ¿tness programs and spa treatments. It was the spa that attracted me with its urbane design of polished silvery cement walls with minimal decorations, black and white hexagonal tiles designs on the Àoors in each of the eleven treatment rooms with a 3D red brick sculptured wall and tastefully out¿tted with modern furniture. Its clean utilitarian look belies the luxury within. With three spacious couple’s rooms and six single rooms, each out¿tted with a white bathtub nestled in wooden casing, modern shower and wardrobe and unique wooden massage beds. It’s an inviting room to step into for the next two hours. There’s also a Thai massage room plus a special Chakra healing room by appointment only, manicure / pedicure lounge plus a small hair salon. This is a spa that offers a combination of global therapies drawing on the healing wisdom of age old cultures infused with modern know how. A selection of massages from Bali, Thailand, Java, North America, Europe, China and their specialty, Ayurvedic from India. Unique body packages to pamper, detox or slim. There’s a vast array of yummy facials using primo products like Thalgo, Elemis, Pevonia and Balinese fruit. Specially created rituals: Unity for couples, Oneness for complete wellness, Purity for detoxi¿cation, Harmony for nurturing, Clarity an Ayurvedic treatment, Inspiration a traditional Indonesian ritual, Pure Chocolate for the decadent you. Plus healing treatments: Aura, chakra and Ank treatments. There’s something to appeal to everyone.

I decided to opt for their house favourite The Best of Ayurvedic, 120 minutes of Indian bliss to balance the Doshas. First I had to fill out a questionnaire to determine my prominent Dosha. There are three Doshas (biological energies found in the body and mind) in Ayurvedic medicine- Vata, Pitta and Kapha. These have to do with your personality type and body type. They are derived from the Five Elements and their related properties: Vata is comprised of Air and Space, Pitta of Fire and Water and Kapha of Earth and Water. Vata people are generally thin and move quickly physically and mentally and are adverse to cold. Pitta is more muscular and powerful, get angry easily and get hot. Kapha tend to put on weight, are slow moving mentally and physically. After determining that I’m a Vata Dosha my practitioner accompanied me to the spacious treatment room. The massage bed sat in the centre of the room awaiting m y b o d y. Three bottles of massage oil sat on a tray, one for each of the Doshas. I knew she would be using the Vata oil on me. After undressing I lay face up on the bed and she began the ancient Abhyanga massage of rhythmic long strokes over my body, leaving me totally relaxed. Then she applied Ubtan paste over the back of my body. This scrub consists of ground coriander, cardamom, sandalwood and chickpeas. She covered my body and left me to wait a few minutes for the paste to dry. After uncovering me she scrubbed off the paste and repeated the procedure on my front.

Next, she wrapped my body tightly like a mummy in the sarong and positioned my head to begin the ShiroDhara warm oil flow over the forehead for deep relaxation of body, mind and spirit. Slowly the warm oil Àowed gently over the top of my forehead; she asked if it was too hot. No, it was perfect. Soon, I was almost in a trance as the oil swirled over my forehead and she occasionally massaged my head and pulled the warm oil through my hair to the ends. Pure bliss. After a good workout in the gym or joining one of their many classes indulge in a spa treatment to ease aching muscles or get ready to go out with a manicure/ pedicure and hair treatment. Monthly memberships available or a daily entrance of 125.000 Rp. ++ for use of the gym, sauna facilities and swimming pool. Drop by SOHAM and get a schedule of the ¿tness classes.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

DON’T MESS WITH DENGUE! The monsoons are here again, and with the rains come disease. One of them unfortunately, is Dengue fever (DB or Demam Berdarah). The monsoons have come late this year, however the weatherman is predicting big downpours and raging storms for the rest of the wet season. Preparing yourself with the knowledge of the early signs and symptoms of this disease is imperative, as early diagnosis and therapy, shows a direct relationship to the successful treatment of this disease. I so often hear comments from well meaning people advising sufferers not to worry, that the illness will last only about a week, the platelets (or thrombocytes, which are clotting factors in the blood), will initially go down, and then rise 5-6 days into the fever. This is a half-truth. There are such varying degrees of sufferance with dengue fever, and no one should ever take the disease lightly. EVER! Once Dengue has been diagnosed, thrombocyte counts need to be assessed at least daily, and if indicated (by low counts) up to three times a day. If treatment such as intravenous infusion is needed, you must be admitted to hospital. I have recently read of some enterprising people that are offering “quick-¿x” intravenous infusions in your own home. As the management of Dengue fever is complex you should NEVER assume that a bit of extra Àuid is all that needed.

Dengue Fever, and the more severe Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Dengue fever is a severe Àu like illness that causes fever mostly in older children and adults, but rarely causes death. DHF is a second more severe form of the disease causing bleeding and shock. Severe cases may be fatal, particularly in children.

How does Dengue Fever present? The symptoms of dengue fever may vary according to the age, and condition of the patient. Should you or your child present with any of the following signs a doctor should be consulted immediately to con¿rm diagnosis. Dengue fever: • Abrupt onset of high fever (>39 c or 102 f). • Headache. • Pain behind the eyes. • Rash. • Loss of appetite. • Nausea / vomiting. • Muscle & joint pain.

What Is Dengue Fever?

D.H.F: • All or any of the above symptoms. • Severe stomach pains. • Pale, cold or clammy skin. • Bleeding from the nose mouth or gums. • Bruising, or “blotchiness” under the skin. • Vomiting, with or without blood. (N.B. Vomited blood may be red or dark brown / black in appearance). • Black stools (Digested blood). • Restlessness. • Change in level of consciousness (Drowsy, fainting). • Inconsolable crying in children / babies. • Excessive thirst. • Rapid, weak pulse. • Dif¿culty in breathing.

Dengue fever is a serious viral illness, transmitted by the Aedes Aegypti Mosquito. Dengue occurs in two forms,

PERSONS EXHIBITING ANY OF THE ABOVE SYMPTOMS MUST SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

Local statistics show that 931 people have been treated for Dengue in Bali in January alone. Of those 4 have died of hemorrhagic fever. The highest amount of cases have been concentrated in Buleleng (North Bali), Gianyar, Tabanan, Karangasam, and Badung / Denpasar. I suspect the real ¿gures are much higher than this, as many do not seek treatment or diagnosis.

So…If I do get Dengue, how is it treated? Firstly, there is no curative treatment for Dengue, (i.e. No magic pill, injection etc. that will cure it). Dengue is treated symptomatically by reducing the fever, analgesics for headache (Aspirin or any other NSAID painkillers must never be given for Dengue, as it will increase the bleeding tendencies. Codiene, paracetamol or acetomenaphin are safe). Intravenous Àuids are given to treat dehydration, and in severe cases of shock, blood transfusion may be required. If you have suffered from Dengue, you will have immunity to the disease for approximately one year, and only against the type of Dengue that you had. (There are about 4 – 5 different serotypes of Dengue fever). In some cases previous exposure to Dengue fever seems to cause a more severe form of the disease in subsequent exposures. Remember, Dengue is a not selective for race, religion, gender, or social status ! There is currently no vaccine for Dengue fever, however, promising trials are being conducted in Thailand….mean time……..SWAT THAT MOZZIE !!! For info on the Aedes Egypti mosquito see our Bali Advertiser Archives on mosquito prevention.

BA Feature Article

What’s your Ecological Footprint?

By Ines Wynn

C l i m a t e c h a n g e i s h a p p e n i n g n o w. G l o b a l temperatures are already on the rise, impacting us all, especially the world’s most vulnerable people. In less than two centuries of industrial revolution, we have managed to deteriorate our habitat, planet Earth, a wondrous though fragile result of millions of years of evolution. Today, our planet is running out of steam because it no longer has its own natural means to compensate for mankind’s willful destruction. Natural balances are more fragile than we think. The erosion of biodiversity has reached a worrisome level unique i n e a r t h ’ s h i s t o r y. Destructions of forests are so enormous that, every single year, more than twelve million hectares disappear, the equivalent of four times the total surface of Belgium. No one can ignore this implacable fact: our planet has reached an unprecedented point of vulnerability and the damage is visible to the naked eye. Scientists have determined that since the 1970s, humanity has been in a pattern of ecological overconsumption – they call it overshoot - with annual demand on resources exceeding what Earth can regenerate each year. It now takes the earth one year and six months to regenerate what we use in a year. We maintain this overshoot by liquidating our earth’s resources. Overshoot is a vastly underestimated threat to human well-being and the health of the planet, and one that is not adequately addressed. Man’s footprint is in danger of crushing the viability of the planet. Carbon Footprint versus Ecological Footprint. We hear a lot about carbon footprint, de¿ned as the total greenhouse gas emissions caused by an organization, event, product or individual. Simply stated it is a measure of the total amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) methane (CH4), nitrous oxide NO), ozone (O3) and simple water vapor emissions that are released in the atmosphere and cause climate change. Greenhouse gases can be emitted through transport, land clearance, and the production and consumption of food, fuels, manufactured goods, materials, wood, roads, buildings, and services. Carbon dioxide makes up the majority of greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. It is produced by the gasoline we put in our vehicles, the gas stoves we use in our kitchens, the electricity we use from plants using coal, natural gas or oil. These are the direct sources of our personal carbon footprint. However, you must also add the carbon footprint emissions from indirect sources, i.e. fuel burned to produce goods by manufacturers away from the ¿nal consumer. The term ecological footprint was developed by scientists in the 1990s and is much broader than the carbon footprint because it measures the impact of all human activities on the environment. Your ecological footprint includes your carbon footprint – in fact it can make up about half of your ecological footprint - as well as your water footprint and land footprint. An ecological footprint is measured as the number of hectares of land and sea needed to support a particular lifestyle; the area needed to provide us with resources (e.g. crops, water, wood, ¿sh, stone, minerals, energy) and to absorb the total amount of waste that we generate. That waste includes the carbon dioxide that we produce. Stated simply, the ecological footprint is a measure of human demand on the earth’s ecosystems. It measures the supply and demand of goods and services consumed by a speci¿ c lifestyle. The estimate begins with the calculation of the land, water/sea needed to support the particular needs of a person in a particular region for food, shelter, transportation, and sundry goods and services. This estimation changes with the area where a person lives. This is due to the fact that ecosystems vary in biocapacity, their ability to produce useful biological materials and to absorb carbon dioxide. The results are given as the number of global hectares it would take to support your lifestyle.

An ecological footprint can be calculated for an individual, a nation or for all of humanity and is either expressed in the number of hectares or planets required to support us. To illustrate this: The carbon footprint of U.S. households is about 5 times greater than the global average; If everyone lived the lifestyle of the average American we would need 5 earth planets.

Some practical considerations to get you started. What can you do now to reduce your eco footprint? Start with a serious analysis of your lifestyle and consumer habits; in particular look at the products used in your household like cleaning materials, garments and how you use renewable versus non-renewable energy; how do you dispose of your garbage; do you recycle? Your use of water and power. How many of your appliances and computers use stand-by mode? Any leaking taps around your house? Swimming pools are a major factor in the calculation of your eco footprint, not just the use of water and chemicals.

Footprint Basics - Human activities consume resources and produce waste. The ecological footprint seeks to measure human demand on nature. It addresses whether the planet is large enough to keep up with the demands of humanity. The footprint represents two sides of a balance sheet. On the asset side, biocapacity represents the planet’s biologically productive land areas including our forests, pastures, cropland and ¿sheries. Biocapacity can then be compared with humanity’s demand on nature which establishes our ecological footprint.

What mode of transportation do you choose and are all trips necessary or can errands be combined? Do you carpool? Do you walk when you can or is every short displacement bound to be motorized? Do you stay in hotels often? If so, do you insist on the necessity of fresh sheets and towels every day?

A common type of footprint calculator estimates the amount (in hectares) of biologically productive land and sea area necessary to supply the resources a human population consumes, and to assimilate the waste that population produces. At a global scale, this has been used by some ecological analysts to estimate how rapidly we are depleting limited resources, vs. using renewable resources. The Global Footprint Network, for instance, calculates a global ecological footprint from UN and other data, and publishes the result. They estimate that as of 2007, the planet has been using up major ecological resources 1.5 times as fast as they are being renewed. Ecological footprint analysis is now widely used as an indicator of environmental sustainability. It is a means of comparing consumption and lifestyles, and checking this against nature’s ability to provide for this consumption. It examines to what extent we use more (or less) than is available within our area. Ecological footprints are used to argue that many current lifestyles are not sustainable. In 2007, the average biologically productive area per person worldwide was approximately 1.8 global hectares (gha) per capita. The U.S. footprint per capita was 9.0 gha, and that of Switzerland was 5.6 gha, while China’s was 1.8 gha. The WWF claims that the human footprint has exceeded the biocapacity of the planet by 20%.

What about your eating habits? Meat is by far the biggest spoiler product. Reducing your intake or cutting it out entirely will make a signi¿cant difference. Not just the food you eat but also the packaging it comes in adds to your footprint. Think of those plastic bags and wrappers, the Styrofoam tray or any king of non-compostable packaging as calories to your footprint. Equally important is the distance your food comes from; locally produced is way better than imported. Long cooking times use energy. So do laundry practices. Is it really necessary to throw your clothes in the washer after just one wearing? Or wash partial loads? Airing out little worn clothes instead of washing can refresh them equally.

Your Personal Footprint. How much land area does it take to support your lifestyle? To ¿ nd out your own ecological footprint, you can use one of the free online ecological footprint calculators. You will be asked more or less detailed questions about your location, your diet, transportation choices, home size, shopping and recreational activities, usage of electricity, heating, and heavy appliances such as dryers and refrigerators, and so on. The calculator then estimates your footprint based on your answers to these questions. This allows you to discover your biggest areas of resource consumption, learn what you can do to mitigate the damage you contribute to our planet and resolve to tread more lightly on the earth. How does your ecological footprint compare? The ideal score is 2 hectare or less. If everyone lived like this, human existence would be both sustainable and fair as there is enough land on the Earth to support the whole population at this level of land use. At present, about two-thirds of the global population has an ecological footprint of less than 2 hectares. By comparison the average European scores between 4 to 6 hectare; the average American scores more than 8 hectare. How do you compare? Your ecological footprint is dependent upon choices you make in your own life, such as how much you drive, recycle and purchase new products, and some of it is your share of your societies’ infrastructure. The ¿rst part can be inÀuenced directly. The second part is equally critical to living within the means of one planet, but must be inÀ uenced through more indirect action such as political engagement, green technology and innovation, and other work toward large-scale social change.

You can go a bit farther a¿eld by seriously examining the traceability of your personal and household products, i.e. where do they come from (local or long distance?); how they are manufactured, using earth-friendly or despoiling manufacturing processes. Think of your garments and your jewelry and the way they are created. Do the manufacturing processes despoil the environment as is so often the case in developing countries? If it’s bad for the environment it can also be bad for you as toxins in rivers and groundwater can cause pollution and disease. What it all boils down to is that the awareness of you as a polluter of Mother Earth is a ¿rst step to redemption. The second step is to ask yourself some pointed questions and analyze your lifestyle and consumer habits as outlined above. Run your ecological calculators. Only then can you decide in what way you can reduce, eliminate, replace or mitigate your polluting habits. Finally: act upon it and do something for Ibu Pertiwi, our mother earth. At this point in time, we only have one place to live. Let’s not contribute to despoiling it. What about Carbon trading, Offsets, Credits and Carbon taxing? The practice of Carbon trading among nations sounds almost like horse trading and in many ways it is a form of green washing. The mechanism is complex and not always transparent to the lay person. On the plus side carbon credits can finance much needed projects in poorer nations. Carbon offsetting is the mitigation of a carbon footprint through the development of alternative projects, such as solar or wind energy, reforestation. It represents one way of reducing a carbon footprint. Some policy makers maintain that the best way to cut the biggest pollution sources like carbon emissions is to put a price on them, They argue this would be a powerful incentive to diminish carbon use or switch to alternate, i.e. greener forms of energy and practicing a carbon-saving lifestyle like buying fuel ef¿cient cars, form car pools or use public transportation more frequently, turn down thermostats. In the USA some states have already enacted a similar measure by increasing the price of gasoline by 25 cents. Canada has introduced a similar carbon tax. In both instances, a drop in the use of fossil fuels has been notable.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Cultural Tips on avoiding Bali’s ‘Macet’ Madness It’s no secret that Bali’s traffic is now some of the worst in the world. A combination of lack of proper infrastructure, narrow roads, poor driving habits and unenforced traffic and parking laws means that a traffic jam (macet) or even gridlock (macet total) is always around the corner – literally – on any given day. If you have to venture out in a car or on a motorbike, here are some cultural tips that may lower the stress levels just a weeny bit: 1. Avoid any time after around 7 AM on the roads which go towards the tourist areas: people leave for work early as most people start at 8 AM. 2. Avoid local school pick-up times: elementary school kids finish early sometime at as early as 11 AM, but basically the window to avoid is 11 AM – 1 PM on weekdays and Saturday. 3. Avoid Fridays, particularly the early afternoon, in built up areas. Devout Muslim men visit the mosque at around 2 PM every Friday and not only are there more people on the road but major roads may be blocked off. 4. Avoid going out on any public holidays or build-ups to them (the weekend before Galungan is always crazy busy because school kids get the next week off). 5. Avoid the beach areas all day on weekends because these are choice destinations for locals on their days off. 6. Avoid the evenings of full and new moon. Balinese Hindus have major ceremonies on these auspicious days and more devotees travel to temples out of their local area to pray. 7. In the week building up to Nyepi, avoid roads which lead to major beach areas because Hindus make large processions called melasti along direct routes and police close off even bypass roads to accommodate for their rituals. 8. Avoid leaving or entering Bali in the few days before and after Ramadan: around 10-15% of Bali’s Muslim population is on the roads all at one time. 9. Avoid Bali altogether from just before Christmas until around the second week in January because hordes of domestic tourists descend on Bali in large, smoke-billowing, traffic halting buses.

Local News Australians Running Chiropractic Clinic Arrested in Jakarta Two Australian brothers running a chiropractic clinic in Jakarta have been arrested on suspicion of using fake credentials and working illegally. It follows a crackdown on the industry following the death of a customer who had been treated by an American chiropractor. Jakarta police said Anthony and Thomas Dawson were arrested at their chiropractic clinic in a shopping centre in south Jakarta. A police spokesman accused Thomas Dawson of treating patients using fake credentials and without proper permits. Anthony Dawson is the centre’s director. “Our team from Jakarta police and the government of Jakarta conducted an impromptu inspection at Ruko Permata where we found this chiropractic practice,” Jakarta police spokesman Muhammad Iqbal said.

“We conducted investigations there and we found some evidence that led us to suspect that there had been illegal practice.” The pair are being detained at Jakarta police headquarters and could be held for as long as 90 days while police investigate. Police said the brothers were caught as they tried to escape arrest. The arrests follow the death of local woman Siska Nadya just hours after treatment from Californian chiropractor Randall Cafferty. He fled the country before Indonesian police could question him. Earlier this month police closed down Jakarta’s popular Chiropractic First chain over numerous irregularities with working permits and paperwork. (January 28th 2016)

New Regulation: Foreigners Can Own Land & House in Indonesia Indonesia’s Cabinet Secretary announced on Tuesday (12/01) that Indonesian President Joko Widodo signed a government regulation on 22 December 2015 (Government Regulation No. 103/2015 on House Ownership of Foreigners Residing in Indonesia) that allows foreigners to own land & houses in Indonesia for a period up to 80 years. This regulation is designed by the Indonesian government in order to provide more legal certainty to foreigners regarding property ownership. Foreigners eligible to own houses in Indonesia for the designated period are those non-Indonesians who live or work in Indonesia or in other ways bring advantage to the country (for example investors). The foreigner, who needs to have a valid residence permit, will own the house under the so-called ‘right-of-use’ category (in Indonesian: hak pakai). On 28 December 2015 this new regulation came into effect according to the statement on the website of Indonesia’s Cabinet Secretary.

Based on the new regulation an expat can buy a land & house under the right-of-use category for an initial period of 30 years. After this period, the foreigner can extend the ownership twice, once by 20 years and then extend it by a further 30 years (hence ownership can reach a total of 80 years). Moreover, ownership of the house is inherited by the foreigners’ offspring. However, if the foreigner (or its heir) leaves Indonesia to reside in another country, then he/she must release or transfer the ownership rights to another person who meets all requirements to own the property in Indonesia (this can be another foreigner or an Indonesian citizen) within one year after departing from Indonesia. If ownership is not released within one year after the expat has left Indonesia, then the Indonesian government has the right to confiscate the house.

After this new regulation it means that expats can now buy either a land & house or an apartment in Indonesia. However, there are certain requirements and conditions that are important to take into consideration.

Regarding apartments, foreigners were already allowed to purchase an apartment under the ‘right-of-use’ category earlier in 2015. However, this only involves luxurious apartments priced over IDR 10 billion (approx. USD $719,424.00), which is an absurd price for Indonesian standards. (January 16th 2016)

Bali Airport Installs Thermo Scanners to Monitor Zika Virus

Tigerair Australia Welcomes New Aircraft for Bali Flights

The management of Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali has installed two thermo scanners to measure body temperatures, in a bid to prevent the spread of the feared Zika virus. Arriving international passengers will be screened to determine whether they might be carrying the infection. Since the monitors were installed, the airport management has not discovered any passengers registering high body temperatures. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a global emergency in acting to control the outbreak of Zika virus. Officials note that the virus has been spread by the Aedes aegepty mosquitos, causing high fevers and rashes among infected people. In Jakarta, Health Minister Nila F Moeloek warned pregnant women to place mosquito netting in their bedrooms as protection from the Zika virus. The spread of the virus-like dengue fever occurred in several countries in Africa, America, and Asia Pacific. (February 5th 2015)

Tigerair Australia has unveiled the first of three Boeing 737-800 aircraft to be based at Melbourne Airport, ahead of the airline’s new direct services to Bali. The new single-aisle jets will enable the airline to launch its new MelbourneDenpasar services on 23 March 2016, and the airline has also recently recruited more than 100 new cabin crew for the flights. “Tigerair Australia’s new services to Bali will deliver over 2,500 additional seats through Melbourne Airport weekly. As well as more jobs and additional aircraft, today’s announcement provides numerous other benefits for the Victorian economy, tourism and consumers,” said the low-cost carrier’s CEO, Rob Sharp. The new B737s come equipped with 180 economy class seats and passengers will be offered in-flight entertainment on their own electronic devices. Tigerair Australia currently operates 14 Airbus A320 aircraft, so the three new B737s will take its total fleet to 17 aircraft. (February 2nd 2016)

Bali Couple Arrested for Kidnapping 3-Month-Old A married couple in Bali desperate to have children were arrested by the Denpasar District Police on Sunday (31/1) afternoon for allegedly kidnapping a baby girl, an official has said. The couple, identified as L.S., 29, and P.B., 37, reportedly took the baby from her home on Denpasar’s Jalan Pulau Pinang on Saturday (31/1)at 1:00 p.m. local time. Police managed to track down the perpetrators’ home on Jalan Pulau Moyo just one day after the incident and swiftly arrested them at 2:30 p.m. Both are now being detained at the Denpasar Police Headquarters for further questioning while the 3-month-old has been safely returned to her parents. Police are still investigating whether the kidnappers have any possible ties to child-trafficking networks. (February 1st 2016) Bowie Asked for Ashes to be Scattered in Bali Rock legend David Bowie asked for his ashes to be spread in Bali in a will submitted following his shocking death, a report said Friday (29/1). The New York Post, citing Bowie’s will which it said was filed in a Manhattan court, said that the British rock star wanted his ashes scattered in Bali in line with Buddhist rituals. The Indonesian island, which is predominantly Hindu, is renowned for its unique musical and artistic culture and as a retreat for spirituality seekers. The newspaper said that Bowie left around half of an estimated $100 million fortune to his widow, the Somaliborn supermodel Iman, along with their home in New York’s Soho district. His two children, filmmaker Duncan Jones and his teenage daughter, Lexi, are splitting most of the rest. Court officials were not available late Friday to confirm the contents of the will. Bowie died on January 10, two days after his 69th birthday, following an 18-month battle with cancer that he revealed only to a select few. His family has kept his wishes for discretion over his death and final rites, saying only that loved ones would hold a private ceremony. (January 29th 2015) Prosecutors Demand Life Sentence in Engeline Murder Case Prosecutors at the Denpasar District Court on Thursday (04/02) demanded a life sentence for Margriet Megawe, the woman accused of murdering her foster daughter and burying the child’s body in her backyard. Margriet is charged with murder under the Criminal Code and child abuse under the 2014 Child Protection Law for the May 2015 murder of 8-year-old Engeline, in a case that gripped the nation. Prosecutor Purwanta Sudarmaji said the suspect exploited the victim for financial gain. Physical abuse led to the death of the child. In July, a Bali court rejected a pretrial motion filed by Margriet to annul her murder suspect status, saying the police had collected more than enough evidences in the case. The case captured national attention after Angeline’s body was discovered buried in the back yard of Margriet’s Denpasar home in June, a month after the family reported Engeline missing and launched online pleas for her return. The prosecution’s indictment against Margriet revolves largely around confessions from her former housekeeper, Agustinus Tay, who claims Margriet killed Engeline by slamming her head against a wall and paid him to help her dispose of the body. Prosecutors in trial earlier this week demanded 12 years imprisonment and Rp 1 billion ($73,500) in fines, or an additional six months jail time, for Agustinus. Agustinus initially confessed to the murder before later recanting, saying his statement was made under duress from the police, alleges Margriet ordered him to rape Engeline after she killed the child to stage a sex crime motive, but said he refused to do so. He did, however, agree to help dig a hole in the back yard and bury the body there, claiming that Margriet promised to pay him Rp 200 million to keep silent and take the fall if the body was discovered.

jail for his involvement in planning a terrorist attack in was the longest sentence handed down to a juvenile for terrorism-related offences in Indonesia. The teenager, known as “Andika”, was accused of evil conspiracy and bomb making, and was one of nine suspects arrested just before Christmas after a tip-off from the Australian Federal Police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The court heard of a shocking plan to attack, which also included an order to stab westerners in a wealthy Jakarta suburb. During the reading of the judgment, disturbing details were laid out including that the young Indonesian had direct contact with Bahrun Naim, the suspected mastermind of the terrorist attack in Jakarta in January. It was revealed that Bahrun had ordered the teenager through a third party to stab foreigners with a knife in the suburb of Menteng. Andika showed little emotion as the court took more than an hour to deliver the verdict. Outside court, Andika’s lawyer Nurlan told the ABC the sentence was too long for an attack that never eventuated. He said the teenager was a victim of brainwashing. Nurlan said a life behind bars could see a further radicalization of his client and he was considering an appeal. (February 2nd 2016) Dengue Cases Rise in Several Indonesian Regions Including Bali Despite the government having urged people in various provinces to be wary of dengue fever, a viral disease caused by the Aedes Aegypti mosquito, the number of cases continues to soar in several Indonesian regions. Since January 2016, dengue cases were reported to have occurred in the provinces of Central Java, West Java, Bali, South Kalimantan, West Nusa Tenggara, and Banten, among other places. In Bali local statistics show that 931 people have been treated for Dengue in January alone. Of those 4 have died of hemorrhagic fever. The highest amount of cases have been concentrated in Buleleng (North Bali), Gianyar, Tabanan, Karangasam, and Badung / Denpasar. Dengue cases in Tabanan district, Bali, have increased during this rainy season, according to Deputy Director of Services and Quality Control of Tabanan Hospital, Dr Ni Luh Gede Sukardiasih. Sukardiasih remarked that during the month of January 2016, as many as 258 patients were treated for dengue fever, an increase compared to only 216 patients recorded over the same month in the previous year. In Lombok 208 people have contracted the disease in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara. In order to break the chain of dengue transmission, authorities have called on the local community to revive the tradition of mutual assistance by conducting an environmental cleanliness movement, such as burying, draining, and hoarding (the 3-M program), in an effort to eradicate the aedes aegypti mosquito’s breeding grounds.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

ARE YOU A WINNER OR A LOSER IN THE OIL GAME? Economists are always experts when it comes to explaining why events have occurred in the ¿nancial markets. But few, if any, accurately predict what will happen in the near future. No-one ever dreamed eighteen months ago that the price of oil would fall by some 70% to levels not seen since 2004. This inability to predict events is why we should be prepared for a wide range of outcomes when making ¿nancial plans. The ¿rst principle to follow being if you are likely to need cash in the short term stay in cash. Investing in assets such as stocks, commodities and property is strictly for the medium (minimum ¿ve years) and preferably the long term (ten years plus). - Unless of course you are speculating and can accept big losses if the dice rolls against you. Investing in oil is certainly a long term matter. The major oil companies have to plan years ahead when they make investments. At the same time they have to watch their quarterly results and dividends to keep their shareholders happy. In normal times they have been very successful in maintaining this balance but the shock fall in oil price has hit their bottom lines hard with some of the majors reporting a quarterly loss for the ¿rst time in decades. The small investor can jump in or out of the markets at a day’s notice. But there are risks, such as when BP had a major blowout in the Gulf of Mexico. The share price sank immediately; too late to call your broker to sell your shares when you watch the scene unfolding on TV.

So who are the losers in the oil game? • The big oil companies whose pro¿ts have been slashed. • All the service companies that serve the oil Industry, some of whom will have gone out of business. • Thousands of employees worldwide whose livelihoods depend on the oil industry directly or indirectly and have lost their jobs. • Oil exporting countries including those in the Middle East who now have to cut their national budgets and countries like Russia whose economy and currency have been severely hit due to its high dependence on oil. • Investors in oil and energy shares and funds which have fallen by up to 50% in value since the price of oil started falling. • All stock market investors around the globe as the shock in the energy industry has impacted a wide range of non-related stocks and brought all indexes down, particularly at the start of the year. • The environment. Cheap oil is going to slow down moves to develop alternative energy solutions. ‘Gas guzzlers’ will come back into favour in the US.

But there are winners too! Who are they? • Countries that rely on imported oil. • Motorists. Prices of petroleum products are falling. • Airlines. We may even see those ‘fuel surcharges’ disappearing. • Industry as a whole. Cheaper energy means lower costs and more ef¿ciency. • Companies and in turn their share prices which will bene¿t from lower costs. • Small businesses with reduced energy bills. • Bali! Lower costs should mean cheaper air fares and more tourists, coupled with lower fuel bills for hotels. • Investors in general, as reduced costs to industry improve pro¿ts, dividends and share prices. • Investors with regular savings plans as they are buying in right now at very low unit prices and are therefore buying more units now than they were a year ago for

the same monthly contribution. The bene¿t will come in future years when prices rise again (as they always do after a crash).

Is Indonesia a winner or a loser? In fact it is both. Now that half of the oil the country consumes is imported the impact on the country’s budget and also foreign trade balance is signi¿cant. The crippling fuel subsidy pre-President Jokowi has disappeared and fuel prices may be reduced further at the next review in April. On the downside however the country, as elsewhere, is seeing a major shrinkage of the oil industry and related investment. Several thousand jobs have gone or will go before a balance is restored. Large numbers of expatriates in the industry have been forced to leave. This in turn adds to job losses among the people who provide services to them such as drivers, domestic staff and so on. Perhaps more serious is the long-term impact of a smaller oil industry and lower production. Not such a problem while cheap imported oil is available but the crunch will come in the future when the oil price rises again (as it will) at which point the reduced local production and the cost of importing oil to satisfy a growing economy could become a serious issue.

Are there investment opportunities for small investors? Human nature is such that people Àock to invest when prices are high but are reluctant to invest while prices are low like today. This applies to any asset. The usual rationale is that prices may fall even further. Indeed they may, but in due course they will rise again but people will not be convinced at the ¿rst signs and when they ¿nally take the plunge prices will have already made half their gains. The key is to look long term. Most analysts are actually predicting that the oil price will reach from $40 to $50 a barrel by year end, compared to the current price of around $30 a barrel. Of course they could be wrong and with Iran adding to the world’s supply the price could even fall to $20 a barrel. But at that price, and even at today’s price, production facilities are being shut down and this in turn will diminish supply to a point when it is in balance with demand. Then we could see a signi¿cant rise. But as it could take longer than is currently predicted patience is essential. Just looking at the history of energy funds I would be very surprised if today’s energy fund prices have not doubled or trebled in ¿ve or certainly ten years. Cautious investors can hedge against a delayed rise in prices by investing monthly into an energy fund via a long term savings or pension plan. This will avoid any sudden short term shocks and will reap bene¿ts in later years. And while you are at it, don’t overlook gold. But that’s another story!
