Tom Talucci:

Yoga for Kids Tom Talucci was born in Mexico, raised in Brazil and moved to Florida in the United States when he was nineteen. He remembers plowing fields and planting corn with Brazilian farmers. From 1981 to 1984 he attended the University of Massachusetts where he studied Hotel and Restaurant Management. Tom worked for many years in the restaurant business in Chicago and the furniture business in Bali where he has now lived for the past 18 years. Tom has studied yoga in Bali, Australia, Mexico, Costa Rica and Greece. Since its establishment in 2004, Tom has managed the Desa Seni in Canggu which incorportes eco-consciousness, organic growing, yoga, wellness instruction and preserving culture into its mission. Among the resort’s various yoga retreats and programs is one class especially designed for children. What are your interests? Art, music, yoga, surfing, farming and the study of religion, food, belief systems and folklore. Travelling has also been a big part of my life. As a child my parents wanted me to see the world, so I learned to love traveling. What books have you read lately? The Brain that Changes Itself made an indelible impression on me. This book demonstrates the mind-bending, miraclemaking power of positive thinking. It explains how our thoughts can change the structure and function of our brains, even into old age - probably the most important breakthrough in our understanding of the brain in 400 years. Why did you become interested in Bali? I came to Bali first in 1994 to develop and design a home furniture line using old school carpentry and recycled wood. The name of the company was Ini Itu. We export to the United States and Europe. How did Desa Seni resort start? Back in 2004, I was tired of the furniture business but wanted to stay in Bali. With all that I saw happening on the island - the frenzied construction, the architecture that does not belong here, the disregard for natural landscapes, the infiltration of other cultures - I came up with the concept of Desa Seni.

NC/Ns/M-18 April. 12

What is special about the resort’s yoga retreats? Our teachers offer at least 4 different styles of yoga which encompass the whole practice - Hatha, Anusara, Ashtanga, Kundalini, Vinyassa - as well as pranayama breathing meditation and asana, the actual poses done in a yoga class. A minimum of 4 sessions are held per day, all open to the public, at 8:30 am, 10:15 am and 4 pm and 6 pm. We charge Rp120,000 for 1.5 hours. Our retreat encompasses full wellness which means we focus on the body, mind and spirit.

Why do you think kids like to practice yoga? Yoga is something new and different for kids to learn. There are many life lessons which a good teacher can bring into the yoga shala such as practice makes perfect, compassion, open mindedness and acceptance. The kids also like the way our teachers are very interactive and hands on. It’s best to teach kids while they are young. It’s important that children learn different things at an early age, and not just from Nintendo, TV and computers. Get them out and interact! Who is your typical kid who takes part in the program? The kids who are usually full of personality and very outgoing. Kids can start studying Hatha yoga as early as two years old and we have some children who are four, but the average age is eight. As a group the kids are serious about learning, but of course there is always a clown in every class. Where do you recruit your yoga teachers? Mostly by word of mouth. We recruit teachers for the most part through the solid relationships that our teachers have established with other teachers. How is the yoga program funded? We have been hosting the yoga classes for children on and off for the past six years. The class has been largely funded through donations and fund raising events. We appreciate any help we can get from people to get involved and to spread the word.

C/Ns/I-25 Jan 12

Does Desa Seni support any other community development programs? We are always looking at ways to bring forth all the great work being done on Bali for which there is little awareness about. We support Bali street Kids which keep children off the streets keeps them from begging. The Jodi Oshea program places students into the apprentice program here at Desa Seni, giving them first hand experience in the tourism industry. We also teach free dance classes to the village children in Bahasa Indonesia. Do you have any future plans? I would like to find an investor who believes in what we are doing – eco, green, organic, wellness and focused on the community – so together we can build more resorts like Desa Seni. How may readers learn more about the kid’s yoga classes? Visit our web site www.desaseni.com, read our magazine Kula, or email us directly info@desaseni.com.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE APRIL 18 - MAY 02, 2012

Well that was quite the moon cycle and thankfully now we head into the Taurus cycle which brings a little more solidity and lushness to life. Mars has finally turned direct and although Pluto is retrograding all bodes well for us this fortnight. The Sun and New Moon in early degrees Taurus trine the forward moving Mars and we can finally see our way clear to some positive movement with practicality, clarity of intention and determination. They both make a lovely sextile to Neptune in Pisces bringing an otherworldly quality and ever deepening sense of unconditional love and empathy. The spiritual heart strings will be plucked this fortnight. Mercury in Aries meets with Uranus and activates the Moon’s nodes in Sagittarius and Gemini. Pay attention to your impulses and inspirations early in the fortnight. Many are being set on different paths or undertaking a new course of action. Others were asked to let go of their plans during the last cycle, even if just momentarily to allow new information to filter through and promote insights. As the dust now settles from the last chaotic and busy cycle we lay some new foundations in preparation for the changes that will be ushered in with the first exact square between Uranus and Pluto in late June and the next pair of eclipses just prior to that. Remember also the Venus eclipse on June 8 marking an era of new information and technology and spiritual awakening. Take this time to indulge and nurture yourself. NEW MOON 1 Taurus 35 April 21, 2012 3:20 p.m. ARIES Mars moved all the way back to almost sit opposite Neptune in Pisces and with that comes some spiritual resurgence for you. It may take the form of a little quiet or introspective time or as some inspiration striking from out of the blue. It may also mean some overwhelming feelings of Love for your fellow human family or even the animal kingdom for that matter. Although Virgo often tends to be a little overly concerned, the upside is that you finally have an opportunity to get things sorted in your life and to prioritize. This window offers you a little time to relax, take a load off and work at a steadier pace. Enjoy yourself and lighten up a little.

LIBRA Venus in Gemini having met already with the Moon’s Nodes has brought some changes to your relationship status. How you define yourself now as compared to previously is vastly different. Some have brought friends from the past into their lives and others have made new acquaintances that feel ever so familiar. Gemini is about communication and you love to do that. It may feel superficial and ordinary although it is the pathway to the heart at this time. Select your words wisely and be as clear with others as you can to avoid the possibility of confusion. It is o.k. to change your mind and state that with conviction also.

TAURUS This fortnight brings us into your birthday month and it’s promising to be a good year ahead for you; one of deep, profound and permanent changes. There are times in our lives when lightning strikes the neurons of the brain and reroutes them. Call it Divine Intervention or call it inspiration, but whatever you do, it will be magnificent in the terms of what you now feel and the peace that is possible in your life. You are coming to the understanding that all will be well when you center your attention in the heart and ask the advice of Love in every circumstance. Ruled as you are by Venus, the mind is your path to Love now.

SCORPIO The moon cycle brings with it a Full Moon in your sign. This will be a surprisingly good month for you in terms of restructuring and accumulating those things you require with the minimum of fuss and struggle. Unless of course, you prefer to struggle. As Pluto systematically dissolves old systems, the new ones are already in the wings, moving into alignment with their task with boldness. Have a look at how this is at play within your own life. The momentum with which things are happening now is phenomenal and you are a pivotal and key player this month and in the years to come. What exactly is your role to play?

GEMINI As mentioned, a bolt of inspiration strikes at the beginning of this fortnight as Mercury your ruler meets that pioneering rebellious and revolutionary thinker Uranus. What new innovations are headed your way? They may even be money making schemes or creative new ways of doing business. All of this in time to usher in the New World, as the old systems fall into decay around us. There is only so long before the World responds to the current situation in a different way and this is your very opportunity now. How can you do things differently from what you have in the past? What is your part to play in the current model?

SAGITTARIUS Jupiter continues in Taurus and is joined by the Moon not long after it is new and then mid May by the Sun. You will finally get to see what the time since last June has really been about. Just in time for it to change signs to your polar opposite, Gemini, this coming June. By then you will be ready, willing and able to share at the communication level, what your experiences have shown you. “Infinite patience brings immediate results.” You bear testimony to this now and with that fully installed within your operating systems will be a living example to others. Not such an easy thing for a Saggy to do, so well done.

CANCER This is the month for self-nurture and deep relaxation; a time to chill-out and feel deep peace permeating, allow all your thoughts, ideas, beliefs and fears to dissolve for just one nano-second. A glimpse of the infinite beyond the mundane will take you beyond the heaviness of your every day and into a realm of eternal and unconditional love. By the Full Moon you will have clarity on the next steps to take on your journey of unfoldment and have the will to set them in motion. Sometimes it is by getting out of our own way that we see with the least attachment and then everything is possible.

CAPRICORN As the Sun now transits Taurus, a certain sense of calm prevails and you can once more put in place those things that matter the most to you; feeling at home, nurtured, secure and with a sense of satisfaction in the worldly pursuits. Perhaps even preparing yourself for the next round of letting go, remodeling or purging coming with the Full Moon in Scorpio. This is a great time to solidify plans and to also find time for steadiness. Coming to a point of calm within the business is essential to maintain your equilibrium and that is ever so important to your decision making potential. More than ever you feel like you know what to do.

LEO Sun in Taurus can often create a little inner tension for you as things start to slow down in your life. See this as a welcome thing and surrender a little more to those aspects of yourself that are often less attractive and into which you prefer to not go. Where do you yourself stubbornly hold onto old habits and where do you resist change? This is a great time to get really honest with yourself and clarify your motives. Do this now before the uprising of events that could take place in June occur, both in your personal life and the collective. Focus on the Love and Light, as cliche as that may sound, within yourself.

AQUARIUS Uranus is moving forward into new degrees of Aries and brings with it the potential for a little agitation and discomfort. What might you do with this new wave of energy moving through you? It’s a little like an impending storm, as the pressure builds you are certain of its arrival, just unaware of the exact moment it will hit. The challenge is to remain calm and steady in the meantime. This is your task this fortnight while the Sun is in Taurus promoting maximum chill-out potential. Staying present to the moment is essential training for the days to come, so get in now while you have an easy window of opportunity.

VIRGO Of course the good news for you is the forward motion of Mars in your sign. After all the procrastination of these past few weeks, this is the time to move boldly forward with enthusiasm and vigor, knowing that you will have all the stamina that you require. Neptune placed strategically opposite this Mars is softening the edges to everyone and everything. Allow the inspiration to move you into action this fortnight. You have full permission to go forward and claim what Is rightfully yours. When you refuse to shine your magnificence the World misses out on a little slice of Heaven, here on Earth.

PISCES Neptune in Pisces is placed relatively close to opposition to Mars in Virgo and brings the balancing act between action and dreaming into manifestation. How you handle this polarity is up to you, although do remember to take action rather than being forced to do so. You have some tension in the current configurations, along with the harmony between the Taurus Planets and your ruler Neptune. Remember to always look to the brighter side and allow the challenges along with the discomfort. We can all be fickle and shallow from time to time. Love through forgiveness is the greatest act you can perform.

Living Beyond Limitations The challenges of poverty and disability in Bali By Skye Laphroaig

I discovered early that the hardest thing to overcome is not a physical disability but the mental condition which it induces. The world, I found, has a way of taking a man pretty much at his own rating. If he permits his loss to make him embarrassed and apologetic, he will draw embarrassment from others. But if he gains his own respect, the respect of those around him comes easily. -Alexander de Seversky Yayasan Peduli Kemanusiaan (YPK) is dedicated to supporting people with physically disabilities in Bali who live in a world designed primarily for the able-bodied and would like to live life no differently than anyone else. This article aims to raise awareness about the causes and effects of disability, including acquired disabilities and the need for vast improvement for those facing these challenges in Bali. The environment of Bali certainly makes it very difficult for people of limited mobility to move around independently, even with the aid of a wheelchair or walker. However, currently the Bali Government has started to renovate the old pathways in some areas to make them more accessible to the 11 thousand Balinese people with disabilities on the island.

YPK in Denpasar is a free social program that understands how to increase quality of life for people with disabilities by helping them raise levels of independence, improve health and recognize their importance in society. In 50 years, the gap between rich and poor on the island has grown wider than ever as tourism increases and lifestyles change. Although stroke is on the rise within both the poor and rich communities, YPK focus their energy on the poor communities and have greatly improved the lives of 400 people with disabilities since 2001 brought on by accidents, stroke and illness. Many people in Bali are doubly disadvantaged: first by the challenge of poverty and secondly by the challenges of their disability. Generally, people with disabilities in Bali are marginalized because of very limited economic, social, medical and educational opportunities. A major cause of such marginalization includes cultural and social attitudes. YPK provides an integrated therapy service, which includes transportation to their centre, as well as free therapy and basic education for children with disabilities who cannot access the public school system. Their Education and Life Skills for Children program gives kids with disabilities like cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and congenital deformities the opportunity be schooled when they are inevitably rejected by public schools. In Bali many public schools are not open to children with physical disabilities, and even those with minor physical disabilities might not be able to access the public system. While YPK receives generous support from donors there are still areas of their programs that have limited resources and more support is always needed. The Annika Linden Centre and YKIP Annika was killed in the 2002 Bali bombings and the foundation was set up in her memory. The Annika Linden Foundation (ALF) is YPK’s major donor and they started to fund YPK in June 2009. They initially supported with a “one drop” fund of US$ 2,000 but have since become a major ongoing donor, allowing YPK to rehabilitate many people with disabilities in Bali. YKIP was formed six days after the 2002 bombings by a group of concerned citizens, Rotarians, doctors and volunteers who were all working together in the Bali Recovery Group dispersing donated medical supplies out of customs. During the first year, the focus was on the Indonesian bomb victims; this is when KIDS (Kuta International Disaster Scholarship) for children of the bomb victims and MREC Library at Medical Faculty of Udayana University were set up. The following year, 2003, the Annika Linden Foundation funded a number of other charities (YAKKUM BALI, YRS, YAKEBA, EBPP) and added YPK Bali as a partner in 2010. Improving the lives of children with disabilities People with disabilities are rarely seen on the streets of Bali and

many people believe children born with disabilities are being punished for sins in a past life. For this reason, having a child with disabilities is often a disgrace to a Balinese family. Very few families are aware of the needs of people with disabilities or will treat disabled people as equals. Parents can sometimes ostracize these children, leaving them isolated in the home and not treated the same way as other children. YPK has met people with disabilities who never go out or socialize within the community and even their neighbors do not know there is a person with a disability living next door. In the future YPK hopes religious and community leaders of Bali will help slowly change the mind-set of local people, increasing levels of education and parental support, allowing disabled people to be truly heard. I recently took a journey to speak with Pak Purnawan, the Director of the YPK centre to report first hand on what’s happening for their clients and share some heart warming stories. To my surprise, the non-profit organization is located in quiet suburbia. Pak David greets me as he waters several orchid plants in the garden, all part of the garden therapy program which trains fine motor skills while engaging with nature. A quick look inside reveals 10 energetic people exercising on the equipment, full of laughter and smiles. Today is social interaction day for the kids involving rehabilitation followed by games and the opportunity to promote new levels of independence by cooking their own lunch, using vegetables from the garden. The gym displays a good collection of equipment including a treadmill, static cycle, hand mini cycle, parallel bar, dumbbell, gym ball all of which have been adapted to include things like harnesses for supporting clients during exercises. Apparently one of the most important aspects of rehabilitation is self-exercise and the will power to move unassisted. There’s also a playground for those children like Reta who have never played on slides before. Reta is an intelligent young girl who came to YPK in 2010. She was born with a clubfoot and webbed hand, which has had a big effect on her life. Because of her disability, she found it difficult to be independent and she could not access public school. Reta began attending therapy at So-Hi5 Stifting in Singaraja but then switched to YPK because it is closer to her home. Since she began attending YPK she has made great progress with her education and improved her independence. Reta is now happier because she can learn with her peers and have lots of friends through the YPK education programs. Inside the clinic we see a short wave diathermy, tens, ultrasound, traction and infrared machines that are in place to assist the recovery of people like Kadek who is a young boy who acquired paralysis when he was two years old after a severe fever. In his village he almost never left the family home or interacted with other children. When he first came to YPK in 2010 he could only communicate in Balinese and was often distressed. Kadek is now part of YPK’s Rehabilitation and Education programs and slowly his situation has vastly improved. He now speaks Indonesian very well and participates well in his therapy. Slowly his movement and flexibility is improving. Major programs at YPK BALI Pak Purnawan steps into the room, he is the YPK Director and originally from Java but has been living in Bali 21 years. Purnawan is the driving force of YPK with a background in farming and helping those in poorer communities expand their lives by visiting towns for the first time. I ask the Director to answer some key questions for our readers and describe the group outings. “We have regular group outings and recreational activities outside the centre to encourage social interaction. We have visited various Bali attractions like Bali Bird Park and Waterbom Park as well as doing simple things like visiting the beach where children can experience new things, challenge themselves, gain social interaction, relax with their family, and interact with nature.” Says Pak Purnawan. Tell me about the Mobile Therapy program? One of the major programs is the mobile therapy unit designed to reach people in villages who cannot get access to rehabilitation. The project was piloted in June 2010 at Blahbatuh in Gianyar Regency. The community responded well, and the program was launched on August 2010 with one physiotherapist and one teacher assistant. Our volunteer Occupational Therapist also works with the mobile therapy team. Now the mobile therapy team visits villages six days a week and provides therapy and some basic education for children with disabilities. One client who has benefited from this project is Nyoman who fell out of a tree twelve years ago onto the base of his spine resulting in lower body paralysis. His mother did everything she could to help with the limited awareness from her education but the poor condition and facilities at home has resulted in a large pressure sore that was treated with help from Surya Husada Hospital. At YPK we have helped to make Nyoman more comfortable with the donation of a new chair to improve his circulation as well as increase muscle mass with protein drinks.

What is the range of conditions you are treating at YPK? Although we focus our services on people with physical disabilities our clients experience a great variety of disabilities from cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy and congenital deformities to disabilities as the result of stroke and accidents. Does Indonesia have a Disability Discrimination Act? Indonesia does have a special law concerning people with disabilities, and several other legal instruments, but their implementation is not necessarily strong or consistent. Education and employment have been identified as particularly problematic areas that are a long way from being inclusive. Indonesia is also a signatory to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Do you provide any prosthesis, wheelchairs and modifications that help overcome or remove a disability? We provide some wheelchairs and walkers with the support of the Australian Consulate’s Direct Aid Program to help our patients improve their mobility. And we have partnership with YAKKUM Bali to provide wheelchairs and assistance like prostheses. Tell me about the pick up service for those families who do not have the means to bring their children to YPK’s facility? Our transportation service assists poorer patients who cannot afford or access transport to the Rehabilitation Center in Denpasar. Currently, this program serves 73 patients per week in three districts of Badung, Ta b a n a n a n d o n e municipality of Denpasar. This means that per week YPK makes 304 trips. Despite our efforts in this area, accessible and affordable transportation remains a major access barrier for many people who need our services. Patients often rely on their family and in many cases their family may not be able to provide accessible transport or find time to bring them to the centre. This is why we now provide transport to and from the centre for people with disabilities who are particularly in need. Do the Balinese community have access to formal health services? Yes, our clients have Bali Mandara insurance, which gives them access to basic health services. However, the rehabilitation treatment they can access with this insurance is limited and not as integrated as the YPK program, meaning that this basic treatment may not be appropriate or meet their requirements. Do you believe the Balinese culture tends to view women as fragile and weaker than men, stereotypes which are heightened when a woman has a disability? Women with disabilities in developing countries often face the triple disadvantages posed by their gender, disability and poverty. The same goes for Indonesia. Women with disabilities might have little financial stability are highly reliant on their families and may be more vulnerable to violence and abuse. What volunteers are you currently seeking? Volunteers need to be able to speak Bahasa Indonesia. Someone who is trained in special needs education is essential and also a music/singing teacher. We are currently seeking good-quality used laptops to integrate into our education program and basic medical and rehabilitation equipment (like knee braces, weights, elastic bandages and fine hand coordination tools) as well as educational toys and puzzles. Financial donations, fundraising and contributions in the form of goods and services are really great ways to support some of Bali’s most vulnerable people. http://www.ypkbali.org/ http://www.alfoundation.org/alfinbali.html

THE HEART OF BALI Having Sight is a Human Right By Michele Cempaka “One of the most fantastic things that Dr. Ida Bagus Mantra, the governor of Bali said to me is, ‘what we need John, is suitable technology to help us,’” said John Fawcett, CEO & Founder of YKI (Yayasan Kemanusiaan Indonesia, otherwise known as the John Fawcett Foundation. Who would have known that this seed that had been planted into John Fawcett’s head 26 years ago, would eventually blossom into the John Fawcett Foundation. At that time, their mission was to provide surgery for low income children throughout Indonesia, who were born with cleft lips and other facial deformities, so that they could have a chance to live a productive life and be fully accepted by society. Soon after YKI began doing cleft lip surgeries, they became aware of an overwhelming percentage of people who were needlessly suffering from blindness. The foundation began with a single mobile clinic in 1989, traveling to remote villages to assist people who would otherwise not have the resources needed to seek out quality medical care for themselves or their family. YKI was the first NGO to teach people how to perform cataract surgery in Indonesia. They were told by many skeptics, that the surgery was too dangerous and that they couldn’t do it. However, YKI didn’t give up and eventually succeeded in getting permission from the ministry to perform cataract surgery. They began by teaching one doctor how to do the surgery and soon after, they had nine doctors who wanted to learn the simple procedure. To date, the foundation has trained 27 doctors from the ministry including the army and the airforce. The surgery is quite safe and simple; the process involves making a small incision and using gravity for the extraction of the cataracts, which usually only takes 15 - 20 minutes. The anesthetics used for the surgery are quite good according to Mr. Fawcett. They have never lost a patient. The foundation now has multiple clinics and funds cataract operations in two established medical centers as part of their outreach program. Last year YKI successfully screened 72,710 people from the lower socio-economic group, distributed 50,950 pairs of glasses and performed 3,643 sight-restoring cataract operations. “We’ve done over 33,000 cataract surgeries in Bali, but there are still so many people who will never have sight returned to them because they live in remote areas,” says Mr. Fawcett. The key elements of the cataract program are: field eye screening & identification of people with impaired sight, treatment of minor eye ailments with medication, distribution of glasses, sight-restoring operations for cataract blind and cataract surgery for children in cooperating hospitals. “People talk about people’s rights, but a really basic human right is to be able to see. It’s one of our five senses, but without the ability to see, the quality of our lives is greatly reduced – we lose our human dignity. It’s got to be a basic human right that people should be provided with a free cataract operation,” says Mr. Fawcett. There are six reasons why people get cataracts: 1. age related 2. genetic

3. damage or trauma 4. diabetes 5. dehydration 6. sunlight. YKI screens approximately 45,000 people a year. Of those screened, approximately 22% have infections and 65 – 70% needs glasses for eye care. In Lombok 1.8% are blind and of that percentage, 60% of those are blind from cataracts. “If you look at the economics of all this, we’ve operated on so many children that we don’t have to build at least three blind schools. Now what’s the savings for the community, if they don’t need to build more blind schools or fill up the ones that are already there? To me it’s so sensible to be getting people cataracts operations”. As of 2011, YKI’s mobile clinics operate in Bali, Lombok, South Kalimantan, Bondowoso Solo, Bengkulu, Pacitan, Surabaya and Sumbawa. They fly out with the airforce to many distant points where they are confronted with thousands of people suffering from blindness. In Kupang they were met with 5,000 people on the first day which resulted in dividing up the people over four days so that they could all be properly screened. The foundation also supports children that are desperately ill, but their main programs are cleft lip surgery, cataracts screening & surgery and school support. YKI offers school support on the basis of recommendations by the department social. YKI is able to support these children with the money they receive from donors, which is used to open a bank account in the the child’s village under the mother’s name. The families are then allowed to draw so much money each month for additional school costs for their child. It works out to just $100AUD a year for a primary school child, $150AUD for middle school and $200AUD a year for high school. “If you return sight to someone you have actually enabled them to increase their income. It’s part of the global initiative to try and raise people out of poverty. The best way to do this is to return sight to a person so that she can work again. Think about how much you enjoy your sight and then think of someone who doesn’t have sight and how much their life can change if they had sight returned to them. For $600AUD you can help 10 people get cataract operations to make this a reality,” says Mr. Fawcett. If you would like to find out more about the John Fawcett Foundation or make a donation, please visit: www.balieye.org. The foundation is tax deductible in the USA, UK and Australia.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Surviving Against the Odds by S. Ann Dunham rural industries overlooked by many scholars, Dunham argued that wet-rice cultivation was not the only viable economic activity in rural Southeast Asia. Before her study, it had become generally accepted in Western academia that the majority of rural Javanese peasantry were all uniformly poor farmers. Dunham demonstrated that there was much more social and economic differentiation among Indonesian peasants than was believed. She upended the usual assumption that most rural residents were paddy farmers, and that paddy farming was more lucrative than non-agricultural activities. Dunham pointed out that half of Java’s agricultural land were dry fields and much of the rural population engages in what anthropologists call “occupational multiplicity,” a variety of nonfarm as well as agricultural pursuits. Some of these enterprises were even more lucrative than farming, and among the most profitable were blacksmithing and metalworking.

It’s sad that S. Ann Dunham (1942–1995) is today best known only as the mother of Barack Obama, the 44th president of the United States. Dunham was actually a gifted anthropologist and development specialist who spent years working in several countries including more than half her adult life Indonesia as a rural development consultant. Surviving Against the Odds is based on her Ph.D. Dissertation submitted in 1992, and bears witness to the author’s knowledge of and affection for Indonesia, and also speaks volumes about Dunham’s integrity as a cultural anthropologist. This resolutely independent woman spent her whole life flouting the sensibilities of the era in which she lived. She married an African man, whom she had met while still in high school, at a time when interracial marriage was outlawed. By age 22, she was married and divorced and remarried again to a man of yet another race, this time to an Indonesian. Dunham had earned her undergraduate, master’s and doctoral degrees, all in anthropology, from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1992. She underwent training by Alice Dewey, the most celebrated economic anthropologist of postwar Indonesia. Long before Muahhmmad Yunus won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on microcredit, Dunham had been working for two decades under the auspices of Bank Rakyat Indonesia on the largest self-sustaining commercial micro finance program in the world. After Dunham married Lolo Soetoro in 1967, and became known as Ann Soetoro, she and her six-year-old son, Barack Obama, moved from Hawaii to Soetoro’s home in Jakarta, where Barack’s sister Maya Soetoro was born three years later. Barack returned to Hawaii to attend school in 1971. Rather than settling into a life of effete academia, Dunham embarked on a research program requiring varied and rigorous field work in all aspects of micro financing small native industries in an effort to directly affect policy making. Surviving Against the Odds is based on the author’s research over a 14-year period while Indonesia was still recovering from years of raucous political turmoil with the communists pitted against Muslim organizations and the Indonesian armed forces. This important anthropological study almost never saw the light of day. In 1995, Dunham set out to revise her 1000plus-page dissertation for publication but tragically died of ovarian cancer the same year, at age 52. Working from tattered field notebooks, Dunham’s colleagues undertook the revisions, culminating almost 15 years later with the publication of the present volume. Dedicated to Dunham’s mother, her adviser and “Barack and Maya, who seldom complained when their mother was in the field,” the book centers on the blacksmithing industries in the village of Kajar in a remote area of the Yogyakarta region on the island of Java. Focusing her attention on small

Dunham also refuted persistent and simplistic portrayals of Indonesian peasants as tradition bound and irrational as postulated by eminent orientalist anthropologists that are quoted by economists and development consultants to this very day. She even had the temerity to call the scholarly work of the mighty Clifford Geertz as “secondary analysis” and accused the eminent professor of perpetuating false assertions in his characterizations of Javanese village industries.

Dunham frequently incorporates Indonesian terms right into the text. A typical sentence reads, “The empu normally tries to hide the price they pay for iron and areng from the tool’s sale price.” (empu=blacksmith; areng=charcoal). The 17-page metalworking glossary, using native terms in the smithing, mining and smelting industries, must be among the most extensive in the anthropological literature of Indonesia. The book includes many black and white and color photographs taken by her and others in Java, Bali and Lombok showing blacksmiths hand forging pickaxes, sickles and gamelan gongs, pouring molten iron into earth molds, silver workers making a repousse silver bowl, Dunham’s own exquisite kris, and of her posing with villagers, government officials, aid agency and development workers. The book includes a preface by the editors and a foreword by her daughter Maya Soetoro-Ng, each of which discusses Dunham and her career. In his afterword, the Indonesianist Robert W. Hefner explores Dunham’s work, its relation to anthropology, and its continuing relevance today. Both Indonesia and anthropology have gone through tumultuous changes since Dunham carried out her work.

For the lay reader, Dunham is at her liveliest and most entertaining when she is observing human behavior and social relationships in Kajar village. Her descriptions of various characters, their physical stature, dietary habits, marriage alliances, as well as blacksmith hiring practices and ritual activities are absorbing and reveal an intimacy with the lives of the villagers that makes it obvious that she had visited Kajar dozens if not scores of times. These chapters are far more readable than the dense technical shop talk of chapters like “Relavant Macrodata” and “Government Interventions.” Surviving Against the Odds: Village Industry in Indonesia by S. Ann Dunham, edited with a preface by Alice G. Dewey and Nancy I. Cooper, ISBN 978-9971-69-533-0, 374 pages, paper, afterword, bibliography, index. Available for Rp195,000 only at Bali’s Ganesha bookstores or directly from Lontar Foundation (http://www.lontar.org). The Indonesian edition is far less than the price charged ($29.95) by Duke University Press in their original 2009 edition.

HANGING AT HOME

These Easter holidays I am going on a staycation. It means no agonizing over mystery destinations, unseen hotel rooms, internet bookings and forget packing. It won’t take a minute to get there and of course I’ll have everything I need when I do. Further more I don’t have to feel lazy or an uninspiring bore because I’ve decided I am just going to kick about in my home town; what I am doing has a name, and that pretty much makes it official in my eyes. So as I loll about on my well deserved staycation I can take some small pleasure in knowing that I am giving the planet a little hug simply by minimizing my fossil fuel consumption with my lovely languidity. GREEN THINKING Permaculture is term that found its roots 40 years ago on the little Aussie island of Tasmania. Two young guys sought to establish sustainable agriculture, which evolved into a whole design system prioritising ecological sustainability at every angle. Perhaps you have been curious about this now popular worldwide phenomenon,

Plants Think and Feel, but Never Lie!

We know that plants will grow faster, more vigorous and healthy when they are played classical music, or even talked to in a kind manner. We know that plants are living, and if they can hear does that mean that they have feelings or emotions too? And if they did, would this indicate that a plant therefore has consciousness or a soul? Darwin was fascinated by the reactions of plants to stimuli, especially carnivorous plants such as the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula). He believed its instantaneous response touch and the way it closed around an insect indicated the presence of a central nervous system. Aristotle told us plants have souls, but cannot feel. The early 20th-century botanist Raoul France told us plants move as freely and as gracefully as a ballerina, but we don’t see it because of the speed of their dance. Well we can now with time lapse photography! The idea that plants are capable of feeling emotions was first raised in 1848, when Dr. Gustav Theodor Fechner, a German psychologist, suggested that plants are capable of emotions and that you could promote healthy growth with talk, attention, and affection. Indian scientist Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose began to conduct experiments on plants in the early1900s, and found that plants grew faster to pleasant music and were slower when exposed to chaotic noise or harsh sounds. He also claimed that plants could feel pain and understand affection, a plant treated with affection emits a different vibration compared to one subjected to stress. The naturalist Joseph Sinel wrote a book about extrasensory perception in plants in 1927, and in 1955 Gotthard Booth proposed similar ideas, publishing a paper titled An Observation on Psi Function in Plants. This brings me to Cleveland Backster who began his career as an Interrogation Specialist with the CIA, In the 1960s, Backster was America’s best known examiner of liars and cheats, a pioneer in lie detector examination. But now he is best known for his plant experiments using a polygraph or lie detector machine, to see if plants indeed had feelings. Actually he came across this amazing discovery accidentally. He was not a horticulturalist, and had no reason to do what he did. One afternoon while sitting in his office, he looked over at his the dracaena, and was overcome with an impulse. What he did was to attach a skin response device to the top leaf of a plant, which measures the electrical resistance of the skin. Then he watered the plant, expecting to measure how long it would take for the water to reach the leaf and change its resistance. Instead the lie detector immediately indicated, what would be a pleased reaction in a human. Was the plant happy? Did it have consciousness? This surprised him. He knew that in order to get the meter to really jump in a human response, it required a threat to their personal safety, so he decided to stress the plant by dipping the plant’s leaf in a cup of hot coffee. Nothing happened, and he concluded that the threat was not big enough, so decided to burn the leaf. Immediately the plant showed a fear response on the lie detector as soon as he had this thought, it was as if the plant knew. He left the room to get some matches, intent on carrying out his plan. When he came back the plant produced the same reaction. But when he actually burned the leaf, he got a reaction of slightly less intensity on the graph. After this his partner in the polygraph school came in, and he was able to do the same thing also, as long as he intended to burn the plant. If he pretended to burn the leaf, it wouldn’t react. They deduced that plant could tell the difference between pretending and real intent which is quite interesting, and implies psychic or telepathic abilities. Backster found that it was intent, and not merely the thought itself, that brought about this reaction. He also discovered that plants were aware of each other, mourned the death of anything, strongly disliked people who killed plants carelessly or even during scientific

research, and fondly remembered and extended their energy out to the people who had cared for them. He found plants to be extremely sensitive to thoughts, particularly those that threatened their well being. Backster also observed a reaction in a plant when living cells such as bacteria, were killed in its vicinity. He observed that they have a memory, reacting to someone who had earlier done harm to another plant nearby. In a line-up of anonymous people the plant could pick out the perpetrator of plant abuse. Dr. Bose also championed the ‘nervous system’ of plants, and their ability to recognize and react to the individual who has committed an act of violence in their presence. Could plants also detect liars? Backster did an experiment in which he connected the lie detector to a plant and then questioned another person. He discovered that the plant could tell if the person was lying or not. He asked the person what year he was born in, and when the person answered ‘no’ to the correct year, the plant reacted and a peak was drawn on the graph paper. When he first claimed that plants have primary perceptions which can sense human thoughts and respond to them, scientists of many fields were of course, absolutely shocked, angered and horrified. Keen to disprove the findings, Dr. Aristide Esser, the director of medical research at the Rockland State hospital in New York, repeated the experiment by asking a man to incorrectly answer questions in front of a plant that he had grown and nurtured from seedling. The plant did not cover up for its owner. Incorrect answers were reflected on the graph paper. Esser, who had not believed Backster, saw for himself that the theories were correct. Backster termed the plants sensitivity to thought as ‘primary perception’ and first published his findings in the International Journal of Parapsychology.

His work is most famously discussed in The Secret Life of Plants (1973) by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird. It is an account of the physical, emotional, and spiritual relations between plants and humans. Robert B. Stone, Ph.D., member of Mensa, and author of The Secret Life of Your Cells (1994), states the idea is accepted by many as not only true but as having been verified by numerous scientific studies. In fact, the power of plants to understand human thought by reading our energy fields is known as the ‘Backster effect.’ His work is also discussed in his own book Primary Perception (2003), and was even the subject of the television show Myth Busters, where they attempted to reproduce his experiments and they actually detected a signal observable on the lie detector. Researchers from Michigan State University have discovered that plants have a basic nerve structure, which allows them to feel pain. According to the peer reviewed journal Plant Physiology, plants are capable of identifying danger, and signaling that danger to other plants. This research has prompted the Swiss government to pass the first ever Plant Bill of Rights. It stipulates that plants have moral and legal protections, and Swiss citizens have to treat them appropriately. Vegetarians would do well to investigate this data if they claim that eating meat is morally wrong!

You can find videos on YouTube that show the plants reacting to emotion, food, physical pain, and even the idea of being burnt. This would indicate, that for all life there is a profound consciousness that bonds all things together. From listening to music to feelings and emotions, what next you ask? Well plants may even have means to communicate…..so stay tuned.

Won’t get your feet wet at Lombok’s Medana Bay Marina “In 2009 a visiting sailor participating in Sail Indonesia Rally said to me that this was the first anchorage since leaving Darwin that she could come ashore and not get her feet wet” Ace Robin owner of Medana Bay Marina.

There is only one marina between Darwin and Bali and that is the Medana Bay Marina in NW Lombok. It is very close to the main thoroughfare route, right next door are the popular Gili Islands and it is a modest day sail from Bali’s Benoa Harbour. The setting is quite stunning with the volcanic hills rising behind the marina and the coconut palms within growing right up to the clear ocean water. A search on Google maps reveals its location in a large bay that narrows as you get closer to the shore. The bays orientation shows that it is obviously sheltered from the NW and SE monsoon winds providing a tranquil place to rest up for awhile. The marina web page has photos of properly surveyed charts that indicate the lat/long coordinates of the entry waypoint. After you hit that mark you sail almost due south until you pick up the leading marks. Then after some time you can easily see the moorings and all that is left to pick up the mooring rope and tie yourself off.

marina then the spin offs for the locals are considerable. Not to mention creating a successful business in the rapidly growing marine tourism sector in Indonesia. If you think of it like this. Your customers, instead of arriving by taxi from the Airport, arrive by sail in their own yacht. The added beauty of marinas is they generate real jobs that are outside mainstream tourism. All kinds of trades are needed to run a successful marina and if it is integrated with local community’s education system in no time at all you will train diesel mechanics and such other skilled occupations. Not meaning to be disrespectful to all the workers in Bali’s tourism sector but it seems a waste to have kids who have university degrees serving tourists pina coladas. Sail Indonesia Stopover In the last few years Medana Bay Marina has been a stopover for the Sail Indonesia Rally. Each year over 100 yachts are safely anchored at the marina. For many it was the first decent shower that was had since leaving Darwin. Much appreciated by the female crew who could wash their hair in cool fresh Lombok water. The two restaurants on the beach within the marina were well attended and a few yachties took the chance to stay in the Barracuda Hotel also located within the marina and is also very close to the beach. There is also diesel fuel and fresh water available for yachties to re-fill tanks but bargain hard with the locals who supply the fuel, security staff on site to protect your floating home, your laundry can be done by local villagers at a small price, traditional massage and glorious, free wi fi to reconnect with family and friends.

The information provided on the web page is very helpful and takes all the guesswork out of trying to find a safe place to stay. There a no hassles about where to anchor and no hazardous fish farms or other maritime oddities to spook the skipper. The marina welcomes visiting yachties and has done a lot of work to make it easy as possible to get in to safe waters. At the anchorage are 30 odd moorings that are conveniently very close to the shore. There are two jetties to tie up your dinghy which is luxury compared to running the gauntlet of the surf and landing on some remote beach. You must be Crazy A lot of people said that Ace must be crazy to build a marina. What do you know about building marinas and sailing they said? Well sometimes it is the adventurous spirit that takes some risks and gets things done. “I saw an opportunity to provide a sheltered place for cruising yachts to stay,” she said. “Indonesia is a sailing paradise with over 13000 islands and only has a couple of marinas. I also know that it helps the local community by creating employment and many local people get income from providing goods and services to the marina.” This is an idea that is that is getting a fair bit of attention in Indonesia that is the notion that marinas can generate a lot of jobs and opportunities in remote coastal areas of Indonesia. Servicing, repairing and cleaning yachts etc, is very labour intensive and requires a broad range of skills. If you use the very successful Bali model of hospitality and tourism and apply those standards to a

The arrival of visiting yachts can be seasonal and intermittent but Ace has diversified the income stream generated by the marina. Many tourists travelling by land around Lombok chose to stay at the Barracuda Hotel as it is very affordable and a great place to relax for awhile. The Conference Centre and Meeting Room, holding over 200 people, is often booked out as meeting place for government officials and other events. Soon over 400 cyclists will drop in as they race on their way around Lombok. The locals enjoy the marina as well as the jetties which are a popular fishing spot. This doesn’t generate any income but Mum, Dad and the kids catching a feed of fish off a jetty is a universal image and is similar all over the world. These non sailing activities give the place a different atmosphere than the enclave model of marinas.

“Fanny Fans the Fire” Did you know that the first handheld hair drier was invented by Jeremiah Postlethwaite on April the 1st 1920? The first fire extinguisher was invented two hours later after Ernest’s wife Fanny set her hair on fire. Fire is a terrible thing and sadly it is often the poorest who suffer most. All too often we hear of a fire racing through a shanty town destroying hundreds of ramshackle houses built from plywood and cardboard. The majority of house fires in Indonesia are not caused by hair driers (surprise surprise) but by electrical faults or cooking activities. The dangers of cooking oil and a forgotten wok are obvious but electrical circuits are another matter. The standard of electrical wiring in many houses (including many expensive luxury villas I should point out) is generally poor and your first defence against fire is to get your electrical installations checked out. Fire does represent a major risk and it’s a good idea to think through your fire arrangements in the cold light of a normal day (is there such a thing) rather than after a fire has started and everyone is running around like ayam tanpa kepala. “Oh fertling emma, the kitchen’s on fire. I had a fire extinguisher somewhere - ah there it is. Now where did I put that bleeding instruction manual?” I don’t want to alarm you but you might consider how bad the traffic is these days and how a fire engine may have difficulty getting to you. You might also bear in mind the fact that here fire engines carry their own water and need to find a water source to constantly refill their tanks during a fire, not a lot of water available for a fire engine on the bukit is there? These days you will find portable fire extinguishers in many places such as offices, hotels and restaurants hanging on walls in suitable locations to be used in case of fire (they also make very useful doorstops). Of course small portable extinguishers are only suitable for small fires but, in that very rare occasion that one is needed, they provide a vital first line of defence in their ability to stop a small fire before it gets out of control. Obviously once a fire gets out of control it must be tackled by far more serious equipment and we can talk about that another time but for the moment I suggest that it is a good idea to have a fire extinguisher available should you need one. Let us look at portable fire extinguishers and particularly the important aspects we need to understand in order to select the right extinguisher for the job. Let us go back to some basics. A fire needs three components to burn: fuel, oxygen and heat. Fighting a fire aims to separate these components. If you pick up your fire extinguisher don’t just point it at the flames but target the seat of the fire. The purpose is to create a separation between the fuel and its oxygen supply and at the same time try and reduce the temperature of the fuel. A typical fire extinguisher consists of a metal canister, usually painted red (my bank has a blue one), with a delivery hose to squirt a fire extinguishing agent and on the top a trigger mechanism to set the thing off. Modern extinguishers are pressurised with air, nitrogen or carbon dioxide which act as a propellent to squirt the fire extinguishing agent at the fire. Sometimes the compressed propellant is contained in a replaceable cartridge rather than the canister itself being pressurised. There are various kinds of extinguishing agents which are suitable for different kinds of fires which may be a dry powder, water, foam or gas. It is important to consider the type of fire that a extinguisher may be needed to tackle and there are agreed classifications of fires as follows:

Fire extinguishers are normally marked with these classification letters to indicate the type of fire(s) they are suitable for. Combinations of these letters may be used to indicate multipurpose extinguishers so, for example, a type ABC is suitable for use on ordinary combustible materials, flammable liquids and gases. You may or may not also find a number before the letters such as 1A or 10B which relates to the “size” of the fire it will put out. A number larger than 1 denotes that the extinguisher can put out a larger fire, 10A indicates a fire 10 times the size of 1A. The

extinguishers: Water Water works by cooling burning materials through the absorption of heat. Water is inexpensive, harmless and relatively easy to clean up though it can leave a lot of damage. It does of course conduct electricity but is used in the form of a fine mist for use in hospitals, using a fine mist avoids a continuous stream of water and so stops electrical conductivity back to the fire fighter. Suitable for class A fires. Dry chemical (powder) Works by smothering the fire separating the three elements of a fire: heat, fuel and oxygen. The first dry chemical developed was Sodium Bicarbonate which when thrown on a fire releases a cloud of carbon dioxide that smothers the fire. Not suitable for class A fires because the carbon dioxide soon disperses and if the materials are still hot they will ignite again. Good for burning liquids because they tend to burn at their surface rather than storing heat.

Monoammonium phosphate is a multipurpose dry chemical suitable for class A, B and C fires. Potassium bicarbonate is suitable for class B and C fires and is the preferred dry chemical for the oil and gas industries. Potassium bicarbonate and urea complex is the most effective powder extinguishing agent and is suitable for class B and C fires. NC/BM/A-18 April 12

Foams These form a frothy blanket over burning fuel to separate the fuel from oxygen. The most common type is AFFF (aqueous film forming foam) and is used on class A and B fires. Wet chemical and water additives These work by forming a soapy foam blanket over burning oil and cooling the oil. Detergents may be used as wetting agents to break the surface tension of water and improve water penetration. Suitable for class A, F and K fires. Clean agents and carbon dioxide These work by using an inert gas to displace oxygen, remove heat or inhibit chemical chain reactions. They have an advantage in that they do not leave any residue which is good for electronics and documents. Carbon Dioxide is not good for class A fires because the blast of gas pressure can scatter burning materials. Halon used to be used but has been banned owing to the damage it causes to the ozone layer. Other gases used include Inergen and Argonite. Also considered alright for use on electrical fires.

C/BM/U-25 Jan. 12

Type D extinguishers Combustible metals are particularly challenging to extinguish owing to the very high temperatures that metals such as magnesium burn at and the fact they the may react violently with water, air or other chemicals. Special fire extinguishers are required that use a metal or sand to smother the fire. Live electrical circuits bring an added complexity to any fire. Water based extinguishers should not be used on electrical fires if the electrical power is still switched on unless you want a dose of electrons to make your hair curl. You should switch off the electrical power before you do anything else. In Europe they no longer categorise extinguishers suitable for electrical fires because once the electrical supply is switched off the fire will fall into other categories. Having said that powder and inert gas extinguishers are generally regarded as suitable for use on electrical fires. Prices of fire extinguishers vary according to the type. Dry chemical types tend to be cheapest but can leave a mess to clean up, carbon dioxide are more expensive but do not leave a mess, inert gas is very expensive and leaves no mess and foam types are also very expensive but are generally for special uses. Some suggestions: 1. Buy good quality fire extinguishers that are well made from metal components (avoid flimsy plastic). 2. For general purposes buy type ABC fire extinguishers so you don’t have to think about the type of fire you are using it on. 3. Do not use dry chemical type extinguishers on electronic equipment such as computers because it will cause serious damage. Inert gas is best, it doesn’t damage the equipment and doesn’t leave a mess 4. Buy several fire extinguishers and mount them on walls near exit routes. 5. Do not wait for the fire to start before you start reading the instructions and if possible have a practice with one so you know how it will operate. 6. Check your fire extinguishers regularly - at least once a year. Phil Wilson Opinions expressed are those of Phil Wilson.

PARAGLIDING LOSS

Sadly Bernard Fode, the pioneer of paragliding in Bali, as well one of Bali’s first kitesurfers, departed us last month. He was on his lifelong dream of flying in the Himalayas, when he was struck down very suddenly and died of a heart attack. As well as introducing paragliding to Bali, Bernard is best remembered for “discovering” Timbis Beach south of Nusa Dua,which has become the HQ for paragliding on Bali, so much so that it was used to hold the paragliding events in 2008 Bali Asian Beach Games. As his longtime friend and fellow p i l o t J e r e m y To r r r e c a l l e d “Bernard was one of the genuine pioneers of his sport. Always helpful, always giving, always cheerful yet always careful. He was a very special man, and respected like few other paraglider pilots of his era. His spirit will fly at Timbis.” Bernard leaves behind his wife and two children. BALI INTERNATIONAL CRICKET SIXES

the Bali Sports Foundation’s “Road to Singapore” the first event of its kind here in Bali, came down to the final leg,the champions Finals.Each regency winner from Buleleng, Jembrana, Tabanan, Badundung, Gianyar, KlungKung and Denpasar battled it out on Sunday April 1st at the Jimbaran Field for the right to represent Bali at the 2012 Singapore CC Under 14 Soccer Sixes held June 29 & 30 in Singapore.

This weekend we have the inaugural Bali Marathon in Gianyar. Starting at 5am Bali Safari Park there will be a Full Marathon 42km,Marathons Relay (5 runners), Half Marathon, 10Km and Children’s Sprint. The organizers report over 2500 runners have entered, making the Bali Marathon one of the biggest sporting events ever held in Bali. SPORT SHORTS TENNIS

The 16th Bali International Cricket Sixes was won by INDORAMA (Purwakarta, Java) with PAPATONG (Bogor, Java) Runner Up. Both teams thoroughly deserved to be in the Final, playing consistently well throughout the tournament. The Plate was won by The Darwin Country Bulls (Australia) who beat a spirited University of Indonesia. We wish to thank all 14 teams for their participation and support to our club. Also we thank all the sponsors, Solarpower Indonesia, Jukung Dive, Government of North Bali, Legacy, Bali Sun, Ecolodgesindonesia, Hatten Wines and The Indian Restaurants of Bali. ISC SURFING In a closely contested 30 minute final at Canggu’s famed rivermouth righthander, Mustofa Jeksen nabbed his second Oakley Pro 2012 presented by San Mig Light win, narrowly defeating Made Awan in challenging 4-6 foot thumping surf to come home with 3,000 Coca-Cola ISC championship points and the winners check of Rp 15 million (approximately $1,650 USD). Both competitors were previous Oakley Pro winners, Jeksen having won the inaugural event back in 2009, and Awan in 2010. Last year it was current Coca-Cola ISC champion Marlon Gerber who won the event. Neither Jeksen or Awan had banner years in 2011, both just barely inside the top 16 in the rankings, so it was obvious they were hungry and committed to getting this year off to a good start. The Coca-Cola ISC and Oakley would like to extend a special thanks to ROLE, GUS, Climate Dave, the Pererenan Surf Club, the Canggu Surf Club, the Canggu Green Community, and Coca-Cola Amatil Indonesia for all their support and cooperation.

Scooba 230 washes tile, linoleum or sealed hardwood floors using a three-stage cleaning process that neutralizes up to 97% of common household bacteria. Using only fresh solution from start to finish, Scooba robots wash a home’s most high-traffic areas, getting under and around furniture and along wall and cabinet edges All you have to do is sweep! Comes with Essentials Kit, including an extra Virtual Wall and extra bottom plates – a $52 value. http://www.irobot.com US$299.99 Samsung MV800 Multi-View compact camera Flip-up screens have been a big deal on digital SLRs for a while because they’re great for use in situations where a conventional viewfinder or display won’t do - such as trying to get a clear view of the action which you’re in the middle of a crowd, for example. The MV800’s 7.62cm (3-inch) touch screen can be angled at up to 180-degrees to help you get the shot - the view even flips around if you turn the camera upside-down. Other goodies include a Live Panorama, which enables you to create wide-angle shots by stitching images together. Specs include a 16.1MP sensor, 5x optical zoom and a 26mm wide-angle lens. Around US$279

http://www.samsung.com/ Sony 3D Bloggie MHS-FS3 Camcorder Previous generations of Sony’s Bloggie were decent takes on the Flip style of dead-simple, webworthy camcorders. Now, the Bloggie 3D one-ups the entire category, retaining the slim profile and pop-out USB arm, while shooting 3D HD video with two lenses. The display is a 2.4-in. glasses-free 3D screen, which is fun, but the real story here is price. At $250, consumers can dip a toe into the supposed 3D revolution. Even if it fizzles, they’ll still have an 8GB pocket camcorder that shoots 2D just fine. http://store.sony.com/ no price yet TomTom Nike+ SportsWatch GPS This watch captures your location during a run using TomTom tech, and logs your time, distance, pace, and calories burned. Sync it to your PC via USB and it’ll map your tracks and upload your stats for others to see. If that’s not encouragement enough, it motivates you verbally with ‘attaboys’, and reminds you if you haven’t run for five days, like a wrist-based personal trainer. Price and ordering not available yet.

Sony Xperia Play: The long awaited Sony Ericsson’s play station phone finally becomes reality. It provides you the gaming power you want in a mobile phone. The rumored specifications of this includes: • Qualcomm 1 GHz Scorpion Processor • Backlit 480x864 LCD Screen • 5.1 Megapixels Camera with geotagging and image stabilization • Accelerometer, proximity, compass • Bluetooth and WLAN • Stereo Speakers • Stand-by – up to 425 hours • Talk time – up to 8 hours • Music place time – up to 31 hours Blue Ray Players This year people will be slowly replacing their old DVD players with new Blue Ray players. Since they have a larger memory space, and are good sounding, they will take over the DVD player sales this year. The right features include, • Video streaming • BD-Live • Wi-Fi • 3D capability • DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) • A/V connections • Disc capacity • connections and memory-card slots

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

Think Before you Pick That Tick! My dogs seem to have more than their fair share of ticks this year, and being a responsible pet owner I do my best to pick the ticks off whenever I can. I wear gloves when I remember, but I have been known to forget. From now on however, I won’t be forgetting. I have heard of Lyme disease before but always considered it not to be problem locally, rather an issue in the USA and Canada. Wrong. While it is not widely reported in Australasia, it does exist along with a myriad other tick born diseases that I would rather not contract. Ticks are parasites that feed on animal and human blood. There are four distinct stages of a tick’s development from eggs to larvae to nymph to adults. Between each stage ticks must have a blood meal. The whole cycle usually takes about a year from egg to adult. It is easy to confuse the different stages of a tick’s development for different species of tick. Where are ticks found? Ticks, like many insects, occur in humid, moist bushy areas. Eggs are typically layed in leaf matter or mulch. Ticks are not very mobile but rely on passing animals to both feed on and transport them. Ticks may appear to drop onto clothing after brushing past bushes or trees or may fall from overhanging. How can ticks affect humans? Ticks inject a toxin that may cause local irritation or a mild allergic reaction, however most tick bites cause little or no symptoms. In some cases ticks can pose a serious threat to human health. Tick borne diseases, tick paralysis and severe allergic reactions, while uncommon, can pose a serious health threat. Here are 7 of the more serious diseases caused by fleas and ticks 1. Parasitic Dermatiti - Parasitic dermatitis is an allergic reaction that is caused by a pet’s hypersensitivity to substances in flea saliva. Itchy, inflamed skin and papules will appear on the skin where fleas are concentrated. Eventually the irritation may cause hair loss and infection. These symptoms can exist long after flea infestation has been eliminated and may require treatments of antihistamines and antibiotics. Parasitic dermatitis is usually caused by flea bites but can sometimes be triggered by tick bites. 2. Lyme Disease - Lyme Disease is caused by a bacterium and has become the most common tick borne disease in the world. It has been reported from every continent. Lyme Disease causes a range of non-specific symptoms including fever, fatigue, headaches, myalgia, arthralgia, muscle and joint pain and sore and swollen lymph glands. These symptoms can occur within days, weeks or months of being bitten. A characteristic skin lesion, erythema migrans, may also appear within 3 to 30 days at the site of the tick bite. Lyme Disease can be treated with antibiotics however the effect of the disease may last a very long time. 3. Bartonella - Bartonella strains are bacterial parasites that are transmitted through flea or tick bites. Bartonella can infect humans, dogs, cats and rodents. Bartonella invades red blood cells and uses the cell’s membrane as protection while multiplying. Bartonella can cause multiple ailments depending upon the strain existent in the host. It is responsible for Cat-scratch disease in humans. Bartonella must be diagnosed with laboratory blood work and most strains can be effectively treated with antibiotics. 4. Erlichiosis - Erlichiosis is a bacterial infection transmitted through tick bites. Erlichiae infect and destroy the white blood cells in the body of the host. Infection results in lethargy, weight loss, anemia and enlarged lymph nodes and spleen. Erlichiosis can be diagnosed by laboratory blood work and is usually responsive to aggressive treatment with the antibiotic doxycycline. 5. Rickettsiae - Rickettsiae are bacteria that can be transmitted by flea or tick bites. Multiple strains of rickettsia exist that can cause different ailments. Rickettsiae ailments include typhus, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, flea-borne spotted fever and tick bite fever. Diagnosis and treatment are dependant upon the strain of rickettsia and the associated illness. 6. Meningoencephalitis – Meningoencephalitis is an inflammatory disease that can be caused by numerous tick-borne viruses. Meningoencephalitis infects the brain and spinal cord, and their surrounding membranes. The result of infection is a loss of nervous system function. Fever, pain, convulsions and paralysis are symptoms of infection. Meningoencephalitis has a rapid onset and can be fatal. Diagnosis can be made by cerebrospinal fluid analysis. Treatment with antibiotics and anticonvulsants can be effective providing that the meningoencephalitis is the result of a tick-borne virus.

C/He/G-2 Nov. 11

7. Tapeworms - Tapeworms are parasitic flatworms that can be transmitted by fleas that are ingested during grooming. Tapeworms exist in the digestive tract and shed reproductive segments of their body called proglottids. The proglottids are passed in the feces of the host and are visible to the naked eye. Proglottids are often the only noticeable indication of a tapeworm infestation. Vaccines for your pets exist for few of these illnesses however the best preventative for all flea and tick associated illnesses is the prevention of the parasites themselves. How to Safely Remove a Tick Remove a tick as soon as possible after locating it. Use gloves and fine pointed tweezers and grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible. Gently pull the tick straight out with steady pressure. If you have difficulties seek medical attention. Do not try to kill the tick with methylated spirits or any other chemicals. This will cause the tick to inject more toxins. If you or your pet have a severe infestation by larval stage ticks (often referred to as grass ticks) take a bath for 30 minutes with 1 cup of bicarbonate of soda. How to Reduce the Likelihood of Being Bitten Wear appropriate clothing when outdoors in tick areas including long sleeved shirts, long pants tucked into socks and a wide brimmed hat. Ticks are more easily detected on light coloured clothing. Spray clothes and hats with an insect repellent and wear a repellent that contains DEET or Picaridin. All clothing should be removed on return from a known tick area and the body searched for ticks especially behind the ears, on the back of the head, groin, armpits and back of knees. Be careful where clothes are placed as they may introduce ticks to inside the house. Don’t forget to check children and pets. Many dogs are infested each year and can often die from tick paralysis. Mow grass in the backyard and keep mulch and leaf litter away from the main entrance to the house. Trim shrubs overhanging paths and play areas. Keep Your Pets Flea and Tick Free Keep your pets flea and tick free by regular bathing, grooming and application of anti-tick preparations or get the 6 monthly shot which is available at your local vet. The addition of garlic to every one of our dog’s meals will help to keep them free of fleas, as will the addition of Sulphur to their diet on a once a week basis. You can also try giving your pet Black Walnut Hulls that come in a capsule form at many health food stores (overseas) which will repel not only fleas but also, ticks and mosquitoes. Keep in mind that none of these solutions will work overnight and may take about four to six weeks before they are effective. When bathing your flea or tick infested friend use a herbal shampoo that contains a combination of any of pine cedar, bergamot, rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, citronella, juniper, tea tree or geranium. Before you wet down your pet here’s a handy trick to ensure that you are successful in killing all of the fleas. Know going into this process that as soon as you wet the animal down, those fleas are going to run for higher and dryer ground; this means they will flee (no pun intended) to the head area. You should never douse your pet’s head with water and certainly not soap, so in order to prevent the fleas from escaping make sure that you first pour a thick layer of the shampoo all around the head and neck area; as close to the top of the head and underneath the chin area as you can get. Pour small amounts of water with your hand onto the soapy area and spend some time building up a thick, soapy barrier that will kill the fleas that attempt to pass through it. Proceed by wetting down and lathering up the rest of the animal’s body while frequently returning to massage and re-lather the neck area. Fleas are very difficult to kill and it is better for your pet if you can handle the problem with one good bath rather than several of them, so be sure to leave the shampoo on for at least 15 minutes or more while continuing to massage the soap deep into the animal’s fur. Rinse the animal thoroughly and dry it off well. Kim Patra is a qualified registered nurse and midwife who has been living and working in Bali for almost 20 years.

Is your Energy low in Bali?

etreat R y Jul ebsite W See

Everyone in Bali seems to be low on energy these days! Is it the humidity, the heat or is it you? Well, if you want to be more energetic, there are things you can do. 1. Control stress Stress-induced emotions consume huge amounts of energy. Talking with a friend or relative, joining a support group, or seeing a psychotherapist can all help diffuse stress. Relaxation therapies like meditation, self-hypnosis, yoga, and tai chi are also effective tools for reducing stress. There are many yoga classes to choose from here in Bali. If a yoga class sounds exhausting to you, there are simple Pranayama (breathing) or light Hatha classes. 2. Lighten your load One of the main reasons for fatigue is overwork. Overwork can include professional, family, and social obligations. Try to streamline your list of “must-do” activities. Set your priorities in terms of the most important tasks. Pare down those that are less important. Consider asking for extra help at work, if necessary. 3. Exercise Exercise almost guarantees that you’ll sleep more soundly. It also gives your cells more energy to burn and circulates oxygen. And exercising causes your body to release epinephrine and norepinephrine, stress hormones that in modest amounts can make you feel energized. Even a brisk walk on the beach can make you feel ‘more alive’. 4. Avoid smoking You know smoking threatens your health. But you may not know that smoking actually siphons off your energy by causing insomnia. The nicotine in tobacco is a stimulant, so it speeds the heart rate, raises blood pressure, and stimulates brain-wave activity associated with wakefulness, making it harder to fall asleep. And once you do fall asleep, its addictive power can kick in and awaken you with cravings. 5. Eat for energy It’s better to eat small meals and snacks every few hours than three large meals a day. This approach can reduce your perception of fatigue because your brain needs a steady supply of nutrients. Eating foods with a low glycemic index - whose sugars are absorbed slowly - may help you avoid the lag in energy that typically occurs after eating quickly absorbed sugars or refined starches. Foods with a low glycemic index include whole grains, high-fiber vegetables, nuts, and healthy oils such as olive oil. In general, high-carbohydrate foods have the highest glycemic indexes. Proteins and fats have glycemic indexes that are close to zero. 6. Use caffeine to your advantage Caffeine does help increase alertness, so having a cup of coffee can help sharpen your mind. But to get the energizing effects of caffeine, you have to use it judiciously. It can cause insomnia, especially when consumed in large amounts or after 2 p.m. Be careful about letting it be a habitual crutch. The temptation to drink more caffeine to get even more energy will be strong. Eventually you’ll be downing 5 double-shot espressos a day just to function. Drink coffee earlier in the day to avoid insomnia, which will make the next day worse. 7. Avoid energy drinks Energy drinks provide a near-instant hyperactivity boost, but they always result in a crash. Energy drinks are like energy credit cards - you’re spending future energy to get short-term energy. The resulting energy deficit gets worse until you hit energy bankruptcy. 8. Shed a few pounds The things you do to lose weight - exercise, drink water, avoid simple sugars - are actions that also have a positive effect on your energy level. Even better, the actual loss of excess fat provides an energy boost of its own. You’ll feel “lighter” and things that use to make you breathless will now seem much easier. Losing weight provides a double-impact to boosting your energy. But be careful with fad and/or crash diets. Cutting out too many calories (ie., energy your body needs) too fast will cause you to be even more tired. 9. Work with your body’s clock There is a natural ebb and flow of energy throughout the day. We start off sluggish after waking up, even after a solid 8 hours of sleep. Our energy peaks mid-morning, and it’s natural to want a siesta in the afternoon (especially when its this hot). We get a second spike of energy in the early evening, followed by our lowest energy point just before bedtime. Once you understand this natural rhythm of energy throughout the day, you can work on the important tasks during your peak hours and avoid early afternoon snoozefests. 10. Drink lots of water Dehydration is a sinister cause of fatigue because it slowly creeps up on you. If you consistently drink less than 8 cups of water a day, you may be sluggish all the time. Get a 32 oz (1 quart, 4 cups) water bottle. Your goal is to polish off 2 of those a day. Try it for a week and see if your general energy level increases. 11. Limit alcohol One of the best hedges against the midafternoon slump is to avoid drinking alcohol at lunch. The sedative effect of alcohol is especially strong at midday. Similarly, avoid a five o’clock cocktail ( you know; that sunset drink) if you want to have energy in the evening. If you’re going to drink, do so in moderation at a time when you don’t mind having your energy wind down.

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

Is This Better Than HGH? I am sure by now you have all heard about all the wonderful anti-aging benefits that human growth hormone (HGH) can give you. But what if I told you there is an even more powerful antiaging hormone that has all the benefits of HGH and then some more, would you be curious to find out more? If so then read this article as it will reveal exactly what this hormone is and how it could possibly help you to stop or even reverse the aging process.

IGF-1 The Most Important Hormone You’ve Never Heard Of Many anti-aging doctors, such as Dr. Keith Kelly, Ph.D., research immunologist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, who has done much research on anti-aging believe that the real future of anti-aging medicine lies with IGF-1. When speaking about anti-aging therapy he predicts “the main player is going to be IGF-1”.

What is IGF-1 & How Is It Produced In The Body? Firstly your pituitary gland needs to produce HGH, which it can usually do quite well when we are young, but as we age its production and release decreases often markedly. HGH is released into the blood for only a few minutes as it is immediately taken up by the liver where it is then converted into growth factors (this of course assumes you have a healthy and well-functioning liver, which is not always the case). The most important of these is Insulin Growth Factor One (IGF-1). It is IGF-1 that is used as a measurement rather than HGH itself as to how much HGH is being secreted by the body. It also IGF-1 that is responsible for most of the health and anti-aging benefits of HGH. Growth hormone exerts its actions either directly or indirectly through its intermediary insulin growth factors (IGF-1) to every organ system of the body. Almost nothing escapes its magic touch. In the same ways that it grows the bones of young children, it increases the size of most organs and tissue. Even the brain is affected. The latest studies in animals show that it can regenerate damaged brain tissue.

More Potent Than Human Growth Hormone IGF-1 (Somatomedin-C) is 10 times more potent than HGH (Somatotropin) and some researchers and clinicians believe that it can be more effective when used as a therapy than human growth hormone whilst others believe it should be used in conjunction with HGH to obtain the best results. By taking IGF-1 directly the pituitary gland and liver are bypassed, which is good if they are damaged or worn out due to aging, which seems to be very common currently.

So What Then Exactly Can IGF-1 Do For You? IGF-1 can do all of the things that HGH can do but more effectively. IGF-1 reduces body fat, increases lean body mass, it builds lean muscle and strong bones, and it also regenerates the nervous system. Since HGH and IGF-1 work so closely together in the body they could be a great team when used in combination. IGF-1 can do what no antioxidant can - it can act like a carrier to bring the cell the raw materials it needs for renovation and repair. IGF-1 initiates the delivery of the amino acids, nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, right into the cell nucleus, where the DNA resides. The nucleic acids are used to repair damage to the DNA and stimulate cell division - no antioxidant or other supplement can do this. This is a major reason why IGF-1 (and HGH for that matter) works so powerfully as an anti-aging substance. IGF-1 also increases cellular glucose transport and protein synthesis, reduces protein degradation, and increased RNA synthesis. IGF-1 also acts differently in different types of tissues. In muscle cells proteins and associated cell components are stimulated. Protein synthesis is increased along with amino acid absorption. As a source of energy, IGF mobilizes fat for use as energy in adipose tissue. IGF-1 also has an insulin-like effect within the body. It makes muscles and other tissues more sensitive to insulin’s effects. This has major benefits if you are a diabetic: if you currently use insulin you can lower your dosage by a significant amount to achieve the same effects, and it will keep the insulin from making you fat. At a genetic level it has the potential to change a person’s capacity to build superior muscle density and size, because it can actually cause muscle cells to split hence you grow more muscle cells. This is usually something that is not possible as we are born with a certain number of muscle cells. But, with IGF use you are able to cause this hyperplasia which actually increases the number of muscle cells present in the tissue.

IGF 1 Prevents Brain Aging & Disease In other exciting news on IGF-1 it has been shown in studies to prevent and treat the effects of brain aging and brain degeneration due to disease. Barbara Johnston and colleagues at the University of Auckland found that injections of IGF-1 given 2 hours after brain injury in fetal lambs rescued the damaged

neurons and salvaged cells that would otherwise have died during apoptosis, which is the programmed cell death that is believed to cause the loss of brain cells for up to 3 days after the original injury. The treatment was effective in stopping the cell death throughout the brain, including areas important for thinking and memory. The treatment was also effective in the striatum, the part of the brain that plays a role in Parkinson’s disease in humans. IGF-1 replacement was also found to reduce seizures in animals with brain damage.

C/He/I-11 Jan 12

It may also play a role in other diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, muscular dystrophy, and multiple sclerosis. This is most promising news as these diseases are devastating and have no available cure.

How To Use IGF-1 Some anti-aging researchers believe that HGH seems to be a “night hormone” whereas IGF-1 is a “day hormone” which is why it has been suggested that both are needed for them to work synergistically within the body. Eric Dupont, Ph.D., head of Aeterna Laboratories in Quebec states that human growth hormone (HGH) is the general and the growth factors are the foot soldiers that go and do the work locally in the body’s tissue. “The New England Journal of Medicine”, March 28, 1996, reports “Growth hormone and IGF-1 may contribute to improvements in cardiac performance... and can improve the efficiency of energy metabolism in the heart.”

C/He/I-21 March 12

Phil Micans, of “International Aging Systems” predicts that IGF-1 will be the “hormone of choice” in a few years. Hans-Arne Hansson, Swedish scientist of the Institute of Neurobiology at the University of Goteborg found that IGF-1 regenerates nerves damaged by injury or illness. He states that insulin-like growth factor-1 by itself and in combination with other growth factors is “likely to be of importance in promoting healing and repair processes in clinical practice within a few years”. The use of IGF-1 for disease reversal and for anti-aging purposes is indeed most promising: indeed many leading anti-aging doctors are now using this hormone as part of their age reversal programs for their clients with excellent results.

The Vow A happily married couple’s life is shattered after they are involved in a serious automobile accident. The wife goes through the windscreen of the car, and, after she wakes up from a coma, she can’t remember her husband, that they are married, and that they are in love. After her physical recovery, the husband must court his wife all over again. It’s easy to see why this romance has been such a successful ‘date night’ movie all over the world. It is nicely directed by Michael Sucsy, and charmingly acted by Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams. Kleenex tissues are highly recommended. Ghost Rider 2, Spirit of Vengeance Nicholas Cage reprises his character of the Ghost Rider, a motorbike riding man who made a pact with the Devil, and, now sucks out the souls of the wicked, while doing the Devil’s evil work on Earth. In this sequel, the Ghost Rider defies the Devil, and tries to save a young boy from fulfilling a rather nasty prophecy. I wouldn’t worry about the plot too much. Just sit back and enjoy Nicholas’ hammy performance, and all the over-the-top action that the directors Neveldine and Taylor have managed to squeeze into 88 minutes. War Horse If you have ever read Anna Sewell’s classic children’s book ‘Black Beauty’, or, watched any of the 1933, 1946, 1971 or 1994 screen adaptations of her novel, then, you will be more or less familiar with the idea behind this movie ‘War Horse’. Steven Spielberg follows the life of a horse, as it moves from owner to owner during the First World War. Spielberg uses some impressive and seamless computer tricks to emphasize the realism of his piece, but, like the script, he doesn’t really offer anything new. Just lots of predictable and sentimental clichés. For example, black silhouettes against dramatic red sunsets were first used most successfully in ‘Gone with the Wind’, in 1939. Elevator The action of this movie plays like something drama students would do in an acting exercise. A group of strangers are trapped in an elevator, when it stalls on the 50th floor of a skyscraper. One of the passengers is wearing a bomb attached to his or her chest. The actors partake in much self-indulgent ‘improvisation’ while they try to resolve their quite unpleasant predicament. Tadas Blinda Set in 1863, this lavish movie depicts one of the early adventures of the Russian folk hero Tadas Blinda. Wrongly accused of inciting a rebellion, Tadas goes into hiding in a forest, while, the Tsar sends an army battalion to hunt him down. The movie is shot in the traditional Russian ‘epic’ style, and it’s meant to be taken very seriously and respectfully, still, there are many moments of blatant broad and blunt Russian humor to relieve the tension. Wuthering Heights Ok, here we go again. Emily Bronte’s classic tale about a doomed romance set on the Yorkshire moors of a Victorian Gothic Revival England has been filmed before, in 1939, 1953, 1970 and 1992. Still, this latest ‘revisionalist’ approach to the story must be the most ludicrous version to date. I have no intention of sounding ‘racist’, but, really, to cast a black actor as Heathcliff, the epitome of the passionate and brooding Englishman, is just ridiculous. The Moth Diaries At an English boarding school, the girls are studying the romantic novels of Victorian Gothic Revival literature. Influenced by the stories, the girls come to believe that one of their classmates might be a vampire. Many a good night’s sleep is lost as they search the school looking for her lair. There are lots of sexy lesbian undertones to the movie, but they don’t amount to much.

Diary by Mr. Robet

Tomboy This little ‘art house’ movie comes from France. It attempts to tell its story with a minimum of words, and, instead, presents heaps of nicely composed images. After her family moves to a new village, a pubescent girl tries to pass herself off as a boy. The movie could be an interesting study into awakening adolescent sexuality, but, frankly, it doesn’t have much to say.

C/He/I-14 Dec 11

Answers to Nothing A whole series of inter-connected short stories all revolve around a case of an abducted young girl. The various characters are all loosely connected in some way to the missing girl, but, they all have their own problems which they endlessly go on and on about. The movie is a classic boring ‘talk fest’. A Few Best Men While on holiday an Englishman meets an Australian lass, and they decide to marry. Three mates come from England to attend the wedding, and their working-class ideals clash with the Australian values of the bride’s wealthy family. The movie paints a bad picture of the English and the Australians. 444, Last Day on Earth After the total collapse of the ozone layer, the world is doomed to end on a particular day at a particular time. An artistic couple retreats to their New York loft, and make love over and over again while awaiting the inevitable. Bad Actress When the wealthy husband of a soap-opera actress finds religion, he decides to leave all of his money to a religious sect. If she wants to get her hands on the loot, the ‘bad’ actress has to kill her husband before he finalizes his will. Paranormal Activity 3 A video-camera records more disturbing things which go bump in the night.

Mr. Robet’s Best Buys The Adventures of Tin Tin A journalist gets into many adventures when he purchases a model of a ship. Game Change John McCain invites Sarah Palin to join his presidential election campaign. Hugo Through some twists of fate an orphaned boy meets a pioneering filmmaker. Young Adult An uninspired novelist goes on a sentimental journey back to her hometown. The Sitter To do his mother a big favor, a young man baby sits the neighbors’ children. The Vow After his wife comes out of a coma the husband must woo her all over again. Ghost Rider 2, Spirit of Vengeance A repentant demon tries to save a boy from fulfilling a very nasty prophecy. My Week with Marilyn An anxious and famous American actress goes to England to make a movie. Land Gold Woman An Indian family living in England is forced to undertake an ‘honor killing’. War Horse A valiant horse goes from one owner to another during the First World War.

UBUD MAMA MIA! I was chuffed to be invited for a private preview (or is it pre- taste) dinner for a new Italian cafe. But “Hmm”, says my friend, “the name “Mama Mia” is a bit uninspired, isn’t it?” At the first taste of the hand-made ravioli, filled with chicken and crushed hazelnuts in a creamy, cheesy sauce, even before we scented the melt-in-your mouth pieces of marinated pork rib in the bolognaise sauce covering the pork and ham-filled ravioli, we understood. It’s “Mama Mia!!!” in the hand gesturing, heart expanding, huge smiling sense. It’s “Mama Mia” where in just two words you manage to express astonished delight at the taste, appreciation for the magic of being alive at this moment and fervent gratitude that there’s this kind of cooking soon to be available just down the road from home! An aside: If they do delivery, we’ll all need personal gym sessions with Nengah the weight-loss taskmaster at Ubud Fitness. Mama Mia, opening this month on a bend on Jl Pengosekan, next door to Casa Taco. SPECIALIST CONFUSION Up very early; didn’t want to be late for a medical specialist appointment in Denpasar. Despite mad traffic, I arrived on time at the specialist’s rooms, to be told that the doctor was had just left for Jakarta. (Sigh.) Yes, they had called to let me know, but they’d phoned the international clinic that had made my appointment. There, someone decided that - as I must be already on the way - they would not call me. (Huh?) More taxi fares and the specialist weird-speak continued. I neared Sanur for a physio appointment and asked the driver to call ahead because I had heard the clinic was hard to find. Instead of directing him, my driver was given the street name only and told to just ask someone on the street. “Maybe he said that because I am Balinese”, muttered the driver. Am I missing something, or does this all sound a bit weird? BABY GRAND OPENING Jl Hanoman was closed to traffic for the evening, a baby grand piano stood proud in the middle of the road, a tiny barong on four very short legs wound round my ankles and a line of vamp Greek goddesses weaved towards me in the dusk, led by Bacchus, the God of wine, all chanting an ancient chant. Just a quiet night in Ubud - the opening of Kebun, a n o t h e r stylish, welldesigned Ubud café, this time with Mediterranean ambiance and hand-made “artisan” food to suit. Delicious daily specials chalked on the kitchen wall, cool wine in the little cellar, inspired cocktails. Next to the Yoga Shop on Jl Hanoman. P: 0361 780 3801. NIGHT OF THE CAT Fundraisers don’t always go purrrrrfectly, but there was not a scratch to complain of, at Villa Kitty’s recent banquet and silent auction at Indus restaurant. There was a frenzy of kitty sponsoring and cat hospital brick purchasing, with meow-dolies (oops, meant to be melodies, I’ll stop the catastrophizing right here) from Villa Kitty ambassador Edwina Blush and friends. For more info about Villa Kitty’s work to reduce numbers of unplanned pregnancies in Bali’s cat population, E: villakittybali@gmail.com. POWER OF THINKING Congratulations to Ubud-based yayasan, IDEP, for their “disaster-risk reduction training” in collaboration with the Center for Public Health of nearby Klungkung. Outstanding thinking, in this tumultuous decade. The training included risk assessment, the establishment of an emergency health center

and a risk mapping exercise carried out by a geo-mapping team at Puskesmas Klungkung (community health facilities in Klungkung) with village midwives, nurses and health care reps from ten local villages. All of IDEP’s Indonesia activities revolve around community empowerment, community resilience and disaster relief. IDEP is actually a Balinese word meaning “the power of thinking”. W: http://www.idepfoundation.org. REGGAE BALI Long-term e x p a t s o f t e n bemoan the lack of new songs from even the best local bands, and for sure it’s hard to get our reggae singers to venture past Bob Marley. So bouquets to Indonesian reggae artist, Freddy Marley, who creates original songs and has collaborated to produce a reggae number about Bali. After swapping his latest CD of originals for the book “A Taste of Bali”, Freddy asked poet Julie Silvester if he could use one of her poems, “Bali”, as lyrics for a new song. In the audience of her favourite haunt one night, enjoying the reggae music, Julie suddenly thought, “Hey, I know these lyrics. Wow, it’s my poem!”.… “30 days are not enough, 60 days are not enough, 90 days are not enough, still not enough”. Freddy plays upstairs at Napi Orti Bar, Monkey Forest Road, on Monday and Thursday nights. TOM CATS IN RICEFIELDS Stay alert to small orange-banded beetles, locally called “tom cats” around rice harvest time. They can produce a nasty toxin that results in severe dermatitis and painful blisters. Adult beetles (Paederus) are small, soft-bodied and are roughly 1cm (1⁄4 to 3⁄8 inch) in length, dark orange in color with their head, front wings and the tip of the abdomen colored black. When crushed against the skin, they release a toxin called pederin. Washing with soap and water will dilute and slow the spread of the toxin. If not washed, contaminated hands may spread the toxin to other parts of the body. Intense pain and temporary blindness have been reported when pederin is introduced into the eyes. The good news is, the rash can be treated and goes away after about two weeks. For more info: contact sos.bali@internationalsos.com.

UBUD WRITERS READERS FESTIVAL

Digitized: After Photography and the Hypertext novel “ We have entered the digital age. And the digital age has entered us. We are no longer the people we once were. For better and for worse.” Fred Ritchin By Uma Anyar As we each make our own way through the digitized media world of information and fantasy, we marvel, stumble, criticize and tremble over the vast changes and challenges that are taking place. Meaning itself has become a slippery and shifting paradigm in our postmodern times. This is disturbing to say the least. What can anyone who feels overwhelmed do? Read. After Photography is a fascinating examination of the possibilities and perils of new media in the digital age. http:// www.amazon.com/After-Photography-Fred-Ritchin/ dp/0393050246. Fred Ritchin has not written a book for photographers alone, because as you will see the boundaries between image, text and film have blended and blurred on the computer screen. This is a book that will broaden your perspective about how the Internet is changing or affecting reality. Yet, it is not an alarmist diatribe about the evils of the web nor is it a futuristic utopian promise of better living through technology. The changes in media, especially media as pervasive as the digital, require that we live differently, with shifting perceptions and expectations. We think differently. “Our sense of time is different. Example: It’s 8:17 now. Not a quarter past eight. Not a little past first light.” We can talk and look at someone on the other side of the planet with Skype. Smart phones are the first step toward the ‘cyborgization’ of humans as we used to know them. The device’s compact world seems to be more engrossing than the one we physically occupy. Witness any group of folks in a restaurant or party or meeting, at least one or two are texting someone. This is both cool and weird and there is no stopping it. And do we really want to stop it? Facebook, Twitter, You Tube, Second Life, have altered our sense of community and ourselves in bold and subtle ways. And we all know that more is on the way. We are rapidly becoming part virtual and part human. “We no longer think, talk, read, listen, and see in the same way. Nor do we write, photograph, or even make love the same way as we have for generations,” writes Ritchin. “The planet was once thought to be flat, but Columbus did not fall off. Now the world is flat again, on the television or computer screen-except that we do not fall off: we enter it, and it enters us, we become ‘users,’ and it uses us. Meanwhile, our world, or what is now called RL (real life), is reduced to a reference point.” The real world has been slipping away gradually, “from television we now know that war can be entertainment, and that stardom is worth any humiliation. Most of all we know that an alternate world can be put onto a screen. And it wants us to reside there. We are not so much traveling as emigrating.” Think parallel universes or The Matrix or consider the fact that successful rich promoters of ‘how to be rich like me’ kind of books are teaching us how to become a product, a brand and no one seems to find this abhorrent. Why? It’s good for business. For many of us our livelihood is now linked to the Internet. “After Photography” is rich with new ways of thinking about the technological changes that envelop us. The knowledge that facts and veracity are up for grabs in documentary photographs has been around since 1982 when the rather conservative National Geographic magazine, admired for its documentary photography, manipulated the pyramids of Giza by moving them closer together in the Photoshop program so they would fit into the magazine’ vertical format. It distorted the veracity of the photographic image that was the backbone of documentary and journalistic photography. Today this seems like a banal change because we have grown soft on image manipulation. We like it. We expect our wedding portraits to be improved with the blend tool that irons out wrinkles, acne scars and pimples. We want our image to enhance us not merely represent us.

around the world manipulated the same mug shot of O.J. Simpson at the time of his murder trial in 1995. The photograph was heavily darkened and vignetted to give an ominous feel to the ID picture. Newsweek ran the same photo straight, no manipulation. The difference is palpable. You can view this, the Pyramid images and 12 more examples of altered ‘fact’ pictures on http://www. famouspictures.org/mag/index.php?title=Altered_Images. By now you have noticed that I have been including hypertext addresses in a print newspaper. But BA is not only a print publication it is also digitally available on the Internet. http:// www.baliadvertiser.biz/ For the time being print media is a parallel product, but how long before virtual newspapers are the only product? Think of all the trees that will be saved. But not everyone has the money to buy a computer or the knowledge of how to operate it. No way around it, there is an elitist element still present in this digital revolution. But, I suspect it won’t be long before we are all wired in and online constantly. How will this affect our relationships, our world, and us? As a writer I was intrigued by Ritchin’s exploration of the ways digital technology has affected both non-fiction and fiction.

“Journalism schools are now focused on ‘convergence’- the need to impart skills to students in multiple media techniques (video, photography, writing, sound, and new media)- in order to meet the needs of a multiplatform industry. But they miss the essential point: stories will not be told in the same way. The power relationships among author, subject, and reader will evolve, as will filters, and the linear narrative based on the authority of a single voice, is up for grabs in an increasingly nonlinear, decentralized media environment.” Over the past year we have witnessed this more democratic form of journalism as the Arab Spring and the Occupy Wall Street news stories and images have been provided by those who are part of the action, rather than only by professional journalists. Changes in the nature of fiction are already in play and it is likely that many books will be multimedia apps that one can download. Take a look at this example: http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/category/book-jackets So what has the digitized Internet have to contribute besides paperless eBooks? Hypertext fiction is a genre of electronic literature, characterized by the use of hypertext links, which provide a new context for non-linearity in “literature” and reader interaction. The reader typically chooses links to move from one node of text to the next, and in this fashion arranges a story from a deeper pool of potential stories. Its spirit can also be seen in interactive fiction. Afternoon, the first hypertext/ interactive novel was written by Michael Joyce in 1987 on the HyperCard software program which approximates a deck of index cards. And permits new possibilities for non-linear novels. “Think of it as something like a (RL) real conversation. While all reading is a conversation between the reader and the author, the hyperlinked nonlinear narrative is more similar to oral tradition. Those in a conversation pick up on different ideas and follow them in what ever ways interest them and feel appropriate, assuming that others involved in the conversation can and will follow.” Ritchin states, “Hypertext fiction is an individuating medium. It allows the reader to click on a single word, an image, then continue to read or peruse according to these choices.” Sounds empowering and interesting. But, why aren’t Afternoon and other hypertext novels really well known? Because, I suspect that like their grandparents Tristam Shandy and Ulysses they are vexing reads. Readers still complain about getting confused, lost, and frustrated and Jill Walker, who wrote a thesis on the book, made a similar confession about Afternoon. http://jilltxt.net/ txt/afternoon.html

HIV-AIDS ON BALI PART II COMMUNICATION IS THE CURE By Tara Khandro The vibrant 15 year old boy in a white shirt, navy pants and blazer stands in front of his classmates with the confidence of a professional television announcer. As he unwraps a small package the size of a matchbook, he explains how a condom protects against HIV infection. In spite of his difficulty in opening up the packet, he is not deterred from his information dissemination intent. Finally, the condom is released from the envelope. The young man places it on top of the wooden dildo. “You must be careful while putting on the condom that it does not break.” As he says these words his hands expertly begin to slip the piece of latex over the tip of the dildo. It stretches halfway down the wooden penis then “SNAP!” The 59 students involved in the AYO! Kita Bicara HIV-AIDS education workshop burst out laughing. Laughter is also the response when the children hear testimony from a classmate that a 16 year old friend recently passed away from AIDS. This laughter contains lack of empathy as well as fear- 48% of the HIV positive population of Bali are young men and women between the ages of 15-29. A program facilitator gently, yet firmly informs the students that they must break through the stigma and discrimination of living with HIV-AIDS, with empathy and understanding. Communication, empathy and understanding are keys to unlock the silence surrounding the spread of the HIV virus on Bali. At the writing of this article, Bali ranked second after Papua, New Guinea for the highest number of humans infected with HIV in Indonesia in relationship to the total population. At a 2008 seminar on the control and prevention of HIV-AIDS, Dr. Nyoman Mangku Karmaya, Chairman of the Committee for Combating AIDS warned that “The threat of drowning in Bali is not only posed by tsunamis composed of sea water, but also by a increasingly growing tsunami of HIV-AIDS sufferers threatening to drown and overwhelm the island.” According to Bali’s Commission of AIDS Prevention, the number of Balinese infected with AIDS may well rise to over 7,000 cases by the end of 2011. The tsunami has landed. The stigma and shame associated with being HIV positive, combined with beliefs that HIV is one’s karma and destiny, a cultural expectation for men to have many sex partners and ignorance of the virus until AIDS symptoms arise or a person dies, prevent Balinese from seeking education, testing and treatment. As a result, silence spreads the virus. There is no vaccine or cure for the HIV virus. The way to halt its spread is through education and communication on how to prevent infection by this deadly virus that is infiltrating Balinese families. At this moment, there is no concerted media blitz about HIV-AIDS and condoms are not being handed out as guest gifts at ceremonies. There are many organizations on the island tirelessly devoted to spreading the word. Due to article limitations, I will share two organizations that are empowering teenagers, sex workers and their clients. Ayo! Kita Bicara HIV-AIDS (Let’s Talk About HIV-AIDS) AYO! Kita Bicara HIV-AIDS, an outreach initiative of the Bali Spirit Festival is dedicated to educating and empowering teenagers to communicate with each other, their families and communities about HIV-AIDS. AYO! Kita Bicara is the program of “Bhakti Social”, the service arm of the Bali Spirit Festival. A member of the Bali Spirit Festival team coordinates the logistics for this “EduSpirit” workshop. The 3 hour workshop is facilitated in Bali high schools and the content and training of facilitators is provided by Yayasan Spirit Paramacitta and Yayasan KISARA. This enthusiastic group of humans creates a safe, creative interactive environment for teens. This container invites the children to honestly share their feelings, thoughts and experiences with HIVAIDS. The workshop promotes listening, talking, sharing, caring and understanding. The three L’s- Love, Love ,Love-is the platform from which AYO! Kita Bicara HIV-AIDS is presented. Ayo! Kita Bicara HIV-AIDS is sponsored by and receives partial funding from DKT Indonesia, the makers of Condom Fiesta and Condom Sutra. They also provide the condoms distributed to the

teenagers at the completion of the workshop. HIV prevention is all about a condom as it blocks the flow of HIV infected fluids between bodies. Teenagers are the most vulnerable to HIV infection due to their natural desire to experience sexual relations which can lead to unprotected sex. Balinese boys may have their first sexual experience with a sex worker for as little as 25,000IDR. If the sex worker is HIV positive and does not request her client to wear a condom, the infection now infiltrates the teenage population. Although the virus is spread in the most intimate of human interactions, it is a community concern. Ayo! Kita Bicara motivates teenagers to become change agents in their community. Two girls, one Hindu the other Muslim, told me that after the workshop they now feel more empowered to tell a boy no ‘Free Sex’-sex without a condom. Each of them also said that they feel confident to share this information with family and friends. These girls parents are very clear and firm in setting rules about sex. Within these two student’s families, HIV-AIDS is a topic. In perfect English Christopher Ebenezer Cornelis, a student in a Gianyar high school suggested that “teenagers make a community to talk about sex, and HIV-AIDS then give the information to adults and other teens in the neighborhood because it is better if teens hear it from teens rather than from adults.” The workshop gave Christopher the awareness of how important it is to learn how to navigate friendships between boys and girls. I asked Christopher if his parents talk with him about sex education. He said yes, and if he feels tempted to have sex, he will talk to his parents. I suggested that his hormones are very strong and can overpower his thinking and reasoning. If he is with a girl and feels sexual desire, does he feel confident to call his parents in that moment? He laughed, and I asked him to consider Mr. Condom as one of his trusted friends who can live in his pocket. Kerti Praja Foundation Yayasan Kerti Praja, a NGO founded in 1992 in Denpasar, provides an outreach education program for sex workers and their clients, sponsors support groups for HIV positive people, free HIV testing and treatment and an income producing program called ReLife for former sex workers and family members whose husbands or wives have succumbed to AIDS. Dr. Emily Rowe, program manager for the past two years at Kerti Praja helps us to understand B a l i n e s e cultural beliefs surrounding male sexual health: “We often see Balinese men dressed in ceremonial wear entering into a sex parlor. It is a cultural expectation that men, by the fact that they are male, will have greater sexual desires. Also, many Indonesian health systems are based on the humoral model- hot and cold. Within the humoral model it is accepted and expected for men to have sex to make themselves cold againthey need to release this heat. The need for sexual release is considered essential for health, and is believed to be empowering for male health most significantly. Sexual interaction for males is regarded as vital for relieving stress and restoring potency, and also in keeping the body fresh and renewing energy. Women are expected to sit back and take it.” The outreach program at Yayasan Kerti Praja is facilitated by 40 sex workers and former sex workers who are HIV positive. The outreach educators visit the red light districts, kafes and karaoke bars providing information, condoms, volunteer testing and information on where to seek treatment and counseling. They empower sex workers from the wisdom of their own experience. They teach a working sex worker ‘condom negotiation’ skills. However, many sex workers feel that they cannot force a client to wear a condom, for fear of losing business. I ask Renee who is HIV positive and currently working in the sex industry if she is a successful condom negotiator: ‘Yes, if a client refuses to wear a condom I will not serve him.” I also ask what her rules are regarding teenagers: “I do not engage in sex with teenagers because they are the age of my children.” Rene’s values, strength and integrity are admirable. Although the sex work industry is illegal in Indonesia it is thriving. Not only are there designated red-light districts, but the island is

populated with an increasing number of night-time venues and ‘kafes’ with sex on the menu. Many women work part time, preferring long term ‘boyfriend’ clients and do not perceive themselves as sex workers. Kerti Praja defines these women as ‘Indirect Sex Workers’ who mainly work in the entertainment/ hospitality industry- in cafes, karaoke bars, clubs and massage parlors. This segment of the population is challenging for outreach workers to reach. The outreach educators also target high risk men such as longhaul truck drivers, construction workers and university students by approaching them as they wait for a sex session. The Kerti Praja representative informs the client that he cannot tell if a woman is HIV positive by looking at her. The outreach worker provides condoms, volunteer testing on the spot, and information. She also suggests that it is his responsibility to not spread the virus to his wife or girlfriend when he returns home to have sex with her. Many Balinese women operate on the false presumption that a condom is not necessary if she loves a man or if a man appears clean. Although many sex workers negotiate wearing a condom with a client, it does not necessarily mean that they do the same for their husband or boyfriend. The women feel that sexual intercourse with a special partner is an expression of love and intimacy. For centuries sex has been a tool to manipulate and perpetuate the lust for power. Lust is designated as one of ‘Six enemies’ within the Balinese Hindu philosophy. The others are greed, envy, intoxication, anger and confusion. These emotional states separate us from our innate divine authority, our True power. To create awareness of these animal urges within us, a tooth filing ritual is offered to Balinese males and females during adolescence. HIV is a great educator and equalizer offering Balinese and foreigners the opportunity to dialog, share feelings, experiences, illusions, delusions, awaken to conditioned beliefs and to examine unconscious agreements made to maintain the cycle of dominate/ submissive power through sexual relationships. First we must accept that HIV exists, respect its nature and discover what maintains its power. Through this journey of understanding, we discover how our own conditioned and wounded parts of ourselves contribute to our suffering. The enemy is a part of us. We humans are mammals. What separates us from our animal brethren is we have the capacity to transform the ‘Six enemies’ of the animal nature into enlightened consciousness. Sexual intercourse creates new human life. It also has the power to create new consciousness.

Unforgettable Vacation

TOUR

ADVENTURE

That’s the Spirit Meghan Pappenheim, who will now be enjoying some wellearned downtime after the 2012 BaliSpirit Festival held at Ubud – where else? – from March 28 to April 1, tells us her moment of pure joy at this year’s event was taking part in Indra Widjanarko’s yoga class for kids. “Pure happiness for a split second,” she reports. There’s a photo on the festival site that might give a clue as to why the happiness was for a split second. Meghan’s a good sport. Oh, and a good sort. She tells us too that the other amazing thing she took away from the festival was how international it was. She says that in the night concert area she found herself surrounded by full-pass holders who had flown to Bali for the event from 13 countries – one of them Germany, from where the man in question had visited Bali for every festival since its inception. The global reach of BaliSpirit is certainly remarkable. One of Meghan’s night concert companions had come from Iran. The others were from India, Mexico, Slovakia, Brazil, Spain, the USA, Canada, Australia, China, the Philippines and France. BaliSpirit is not just the five-day event itself. It has a strong outreach and community building aspect as well, which every year is augmented incrementally. Says Meghan: “Aside from the thousands we raised with our partners for local initiatives, I don’t believe we’ve ever had this kind of backing and programming input from local community organisations before.” Way to go!

Get Real 1 If anyone wants a take on the unreality that drives Bali’s Wayan Mitty real estate sector, they need look no further than the chairman of the Real Estate Indonesia (REI) Bali branch, Dewa Putu Selawa, who said in late March that property prices had already increased by 15 percent since earlier in the month because of the government’s announcement of rising fuel prices. He meant, of course, asking prices. For good measure, he added that many property owners had withdrawn their properties from sale. Doubtless, as the unfortunate (and entirely blameless, naturally) victims of the twin epidemics of unreal expectation and rampant greed that afflict our island, they did so in pursuit of further excuse to ask for an astronomical price in the hope that some mug would pay it. The fuel price rise did not eventuate, even though ending a US$14 billion a year subsidy on highly-pollutant low-grade petrol is clearly a good idea on budgetary and environmental grounds. This was absolutely no surprise, given that the national government – unless energised by antediluvian misogynists into pursuing mini-skirted women in the astonishing belief that female knees are pornographic – has all the courage of a craven. And little grip on reality, except in relation to who might still be persuaded to vote for it in 2014. A recent study by Knight Frank and Elite Havens showed that Bali has the highest rate of land price increases in Indonesia (up by an average 34 percent last year against 8-16 percent in other parts of Indonesia). Selawa explains it this way: “The property business is very sensitive to rumours and discourse. Many businessmen cancelled the sale of their properties because the prices would again increase when the fuel price is hiked. They were waiting to get the highest profit.” A fuel price rise of 33 percent would increase costs, naturally, by some quantum. That would be after the price rise took effect and impacted on transportation costs, not before. We’re talking about profiteering here.

Get Real 2 It’s not only the big end of town that needs to take a reality check. We heard an amusing little tale the other day – well, it’s irritating really, but you’ve got to laugh – that hits one of the nails of Bali’s development dilemma squarely on the head. We won’t name names, because that would be invidious and in any case the problem is so widespread as to be unremarkable. There’s a nice little restaurant we go to where the land upon which it stands has been leased for 20 years from the local owner. The land has been leased by an Indonesian, so the usual fleece-the-foreigner rule hardly applies. But in the nature of things here, and of course elsewhere in the county, such arrangements come along with unrelated, unscheduled and entirely promiscuous calls upon the pocket: the landowner needs money, for this, that, or some other purpose; the fridge is on the blink; the beer has run out; someone is ill perhaps; or maybe that remarkable aunt in Jauh Sekali (it is nearly always far enough away to discourage direct inquiry) has experienced a further bout of repeated death and there’s yet another funeral to be paid for. If you live here, you’ll know the score.

Anyway, on this occasion, we hear, the landowner was after some money (a not insubstantial sum apparently) and was culturally distressed when the readies were not ready to be handed over; that of course means the cash was not available immediately. He then visited the establishment and engaged in that other customary local practice – looking miffed, shouting loudly, and banging any available flat surface. Apprised of the fact (again) that the casual, unbudgeted and off-contract sum he demanded was indeed not yet to hand, he said he would never lease his land again and would not be renewing the current 20-year lease (it has about 19 years to run). Fine, replied our restaurant proprietor, a lovely chap from Sumatra. That was his privilege. But in the meantime, for the rest of the lease period, he didn’t want to see the other fellow’s ugly mug anywhere near the place. Got that?

Here’s to Your Health The new BIMC Hospital at Nusa Dua opens its doors on May 5, an event that will certainly please anyone on the Bukit who needs international-standard medical care and doesn’t want to risk a potential two-hour road trip to BIMC’s other facility at Simpang Siur. It will be especially useful for those whose blood pressure is apt to rise to crisis level if stuck in traffic on what would normally be a 25-minute, 12-kilometre trip if everyone stayed in lane and obeyed the other road rules, or gave a tinker’s cuss about anyone else on the road. That’s far from the only benefit of the new hospital, of course. It includes a 24-hour accident and emergency centre, a 24-hour medical centre, cosmetic medicine and dental centres, and – good news indeed – a dialysis centre which should make it possible for tourists who require regular dialysis to consider holidaying at Nusa Dua or nearby. BIMC Nusa Dua plans an open day on May 5 to introduce residents and visitors to the new facility, housed in purposebuilt accommodation in the BTCD enclave just across the road from Bali Collection. The complex was built by a Perthbased Australian firm that specialises in hospital construction and fitted out with state of the art interiors and infrastructure by a South African company.

Best Endeavours Applications have been invited for the Endeavour Awards for 2013. This Australian government scholarship programme provides opportunities for Indonesians to undertake study, research and professional development in Australia. Announcing the awards on April 2, Australian ambassador Greg Moriarty said: “Twenty-six Indonesians were awarded Endeavour scholarships in 2011 and we look forward to receiving more Indonesian applications to participate in this internationally competitive, merit based scholarship programme.” Applications close on June 30. Details are available at www.australiaawards.gov.au.

Why, Thank You Diarists and other scribblers generally only hear from readers who have a gripe. This is not necessarily a problem. Often it gives you a good laugh, as for example not so long ago when a self-elected lunar luminary of long standing in these parts told Hector’s helper – it was in response to a polite inquiry – “Eat shit and die you twerp.” How much more pleasant it was to receive feedback recently from reader Nurul J. Darmawan, who posted this note on Hector’s Facebook wall in response to the item in last edition’s Diary headed True to Herself:

Facebook is where I find friends to add insight in my life. Your articles are very insightful and give an input to many people such as me. Bravo Hector’s Diary!”

And Again Hector also tweets (some people say he twitters, but cockatoos don’t do that) and was recently followed – you do that on Twitter – by one Frank Seth, from Idaho, who advised: “I’m an undiscovered American watercolour artist. Have been painting over 53-plus years. Maybe this will be my year? I want to keep on painting as long as I can do it.” Good on you, Frank.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

But accepting we have to save is one thing; how to go about it another. There is an attractive array of options but there are also many pitfalls. Below are ten examples of them. Indeed I have made some of the mistakes myself at some time or other so consider yourself in good company if you too have made them. Hopefully though we will have learnt from them! FAILING TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN SHORT, MEDIUM AND LONG TERM NEEDS There is no single form of saving or investment that can meet all your needs. Cash is fine and even essential for the short term but if kept for many years will never keep pace with the destructive forces of inflation. Similarly, long term assets such as stocks can prove disastrous in the short term if cash is needed in a hurry. What we have to do is separate our various future needs ranging from tomorrow until post-retirement and then identify suitable investment vehicles to meet each objective. HOLDING INSUFFIENT CASH RESERVES Some people deplete their cash reserves for the worst reasons such as spending beyond their means. Others deplete their reserves as a result of the best of intentions by, for example, investing in long term assets such as property or a business which cannot be turned quickly into cash. No matter how much you own on paper in the way of assets, if you cannot pay your bills you are technically insolvent and your valuable assets could be seized and liquidated in a fire sale at a fraction of their true worth. This is precisely what happened to thousands of families in the credit crunch of 2008. Not only individuals suffered; big banks and other institutions also hit the dust. Always keep ample cash reserves, ideally in several locations, so that you have enough to tide you through both planned needs and contingencies. HOLDING EXCESSIVE CASH RESERVES The other extreme, and where one usually finds cautious or nervous investors, is where large amounts of cash are allowed to sit in bank accounts year in, year out. The returns on bank accounts are pitifully low and do not grow in line with inflation. While your money is sitting there the banks are reaping very nice profits by lending it out at rates far higher than you will ever receive. FAILING TO UNDERSTAND THE TERMS OF AN INVESTMENT Nobody likes to spend ages reading the small print of an investment product. But failing to do so can prove very costly. A long term savings plan brochure for example may make a statement to the effect that the plan can be suspended or encashed after as little as two years. Great news if you need flexibility, but just take a look at the penalties! Long term investment plans form an important part of long term planning but can be disastrous if abandoned in the early years. Reading the small print applies to all other products too. Note the frequent disclaimer: ‘Past performance is no indication of future performance.’ BUYING HIGH Humans, like other animal species, have an inherent tendency to follow the herd. When the success of a particular asset or product is well publicized everyone wants a piece of the action. No-one wants to be seen as not being part of the success story. The trouble is that most people consequently buy when the price is already too high. Remember the technology bubble of 2001? While everyone else, including fund managers, were feverishly buying into technology stocks shrewder investors such as Warren Buffet were buying stocks of more mundane items such as paint. When technology stocks fell 80% paint

TEN BIG MISTAKES MADE BY SAVERS ‘Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die.’ Problem is that tomorrow we may not die, in which case we are left with the challenge of living with no financial reserves. Not a desirable plight to be in should you be an expat planning to settle in Bali. This is why most try to put something away for those years ahead when we can no longer provide for ourselves.

Business Opportunity

stocks remained steady! The panic to buy gold in the late 1970’s ended in tears when gold fell from around $800 an ounce to $300 and stayed near that mark for a quarter of a century! SELLING LOW This is the corollary to buying high and indeed many investors complete the circle of failure by panicking and selling once prices have fallen. Again, the herd mentality tells us we should not be holding something that has fallen from grace. Yet experience has shown us time and time again that the best strategy to adopt if your investments have crashed is to sit tight and wait for them to recover. If you lost heavily in the crash of 2008/9 you would have recouped most of your losses again the following year. Few people are aware that the S&P 500 gained 100% between March 2009 and July 2010. If you had to sell because you needed the cash then you should not have invested in the first place. EXCESSIVE SWITCHING OF INVESTMENTS This is also linked to the syndrome of buying high and selling low. Typically when I help set up a client’s new investment portfolio I will recommend a wide range of assets and funds to ensure the risk is spread. When we review it a year later there will likely be a wide disparity in fund performances. The client reaction is invariably one of sell the ‘poor performing funds’ and switch the proceeds to the funds that are doing well. Yet unless there is a very good reason for selling a fund the correct procedure would actually be to rebalance the portfolio by taking profits from the funds that are up and moving them into the funds that are down. This is because asset classes do not move in unison. Chasing the previous year’s best performers is a strong temptation. There is a good chance that the strongest asset in one year will be the weakest the following year. We should always look beyond the short term and make sure we are well-positioned for the long term.

FAILURE TO MAKE A COMMITMENT TO A PLAN At some point life most people realise they need a financial plan. Most stick to it and as a result reach their objectives. But some find it hard to maintain a commitment to the plan and, like New Year resolutions, the plan becomes history. But abandoning a plan can be more costly in terms of penalties and short term losses than not having a plan at all so think carefully before setting out. FAILING TO WRITE A WILL OR SET UP A TRUST Many people fail to write a will because it means facing up to the fact that one day they will die. No doubt they consider that the inevitable will happen so far in the future that it is a pointless task at this point in time. But the grim reaper can come along at any moment and if you have not prepared for his arrival it can mean untold misery and costs for the ones you leave behind. If you hold significant assets or have special wishes for minor children for example, then a trust could help you put your affairs in order. C/BT/I-08 Feb 12

PUTTING ALL OR MOST EGGS IN ONE BASKET This is perhaps one of the commonest failings. No matter what the asset is, whether it is gold, stocks, cash, property or a business, allocating all your savings and resources to just one of them, while it might pay off, can also result in disaster. Diversification is one of the most important principles of investing. The above list is by no means exhaustive but if you can avoid these ten failings you are well on your way to being a successful saver.

Restaurant Review

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

The Duck goes surfing! Bebek Bengil is the corner-stone of the new impressive lifestyle and restaurant complex at The Bay, Nusa Dua. It is situated beachfront, east of The Grand Hyatt and adjacent to the Bali Collection. The area is almost as large as that at the Ubud headquarters of this Bali icon, except that instead of rice paddies between the tables and bales it is all gardens and trees, with beach and ocean beyond. The enormous U-shaped building itself has a high ceiling and is stepped so it is totally open to the ocean view. Between it and the private beach are big Bales, enough for large families of 20 or so, well spaced and set amongst the gardens and trees. The menu at Bebek Bengil Nusa Dua is similar to that at Ubud, it is just the setting that is totally different. Pride of place on the menu is, of course, their Crispy Duck. That unique dish invented in Ubud but served at many other places so dry that it is almost inedible. Bebek Bengil has always been able to get the right balance to crispiness whilst keeping the flesh soft enough to enjoy. However, there are many other interesting items on the menu in this most relaxing setting of gardens and sea. There is yet another one that has been created by the owner, Ibu Agung Raka Sueni. It is a version of Bebek Pelalah. Now pelalah is most commonly chicken, the bird first being stuffed with spices and roasted, then shredded when cold and tossed with chilli and lime. BB’s version of Bebek Pelalah is completely different with the roasted bird cut into chunks, rather than shredded, and combined with a tomato based sauce, also with chilli and lime. Other duck specials on the menu include one of the great dishes of Balinese cuisine, Bebek Betutu. This is a classic dish and stands up with the ‘best of’ of any major cuisine. The bird is stuffed with Balinese herbs and spices, including shallots, garlic, lemongrass, candle nuts, ginger, turmeric, lime leaves, kencur root, and many others, then wrapped in beetle nut leaf, and steamed over embers for a long extended cooking period. The resultant flavour of the now yellow coloured and amazingly tender flesh is unique and one of the great delights of dining in Bali. Due to this long cooking cycle only a full bird is served and it must be ordered for a minimum of 2 persons at the table. It also must be ordered one day in advance to facilitate the detailed preparation. The chicken version of this dish, Ayam Betutu, is also available with the same preparation, and ordering restrictions. There is also a traditionally grilled duck served with a sweet chilli sauce and unique versions of Nasi and Mie Gorengs.

For a starter there is a Duck Melon Soup. Other starters include Chicken Soup, and the universal Thai favourite, the hot, sweet and sour prawn soup Tom Yam Goong. The Crab and Prawn Salad is topped with thousand islands dressing and the Crispy Duck Salad is tossed with a sauce of orange and shallots.

QUICK REVIEW Restaurant

: Bebek Bengil

Address

: The Bay, Nusa Dua.

The Cumi Goreng Bumbu Bali is a great starter. The squid rings have been dipped in a mix of flour and Balinese spices before deep frying. Hot, crunchy and with a nice after taste from the spices make them a perfect entrée to enjoy whilst sipping cocktails or pre-dinner drinks. Traditional Balinese Sate can be fish, chicken or duck, or a mixed plate of all three. There is also a sate cut from the Beef Tenderloin.

Telephone

: 11.00 a.m. to 10.00 p.m., daily.

Pasta is Spaghetti, and you can order it with minced beef sauce, Bolognese style, or Carbonara, tossed with bacon, egg, cream and Parmesan cheese. Whilst most will only visit Bebel Bengil to eat duck dishes the restaurant has to cater for all members of the table so there are a few general items as well; Chicken Sate served as a main course, and Chicken Kebabs, large chunks of tender chicken on a skewer, served over yellow rice. Pepes Ikan is a Balinese special from the fishing villages, minced fish is combined with Balinese spices and wrapped in banana leaves, cooked over embers. A more western fish dish is the Snapper Fillet, served with tartar sauce, baby potatoes and Chinese style fried parsley.

Dessert at any Bebek Bengil is almost a given; Black Russian Pie is something that they have made their own! The flavour of vodka and Kahlua comes through strong, as does the chocolate sauce that covers it. Other options are their Original Sin Devil Dark Food Cake or a less complicated Carrot Cake with pistachios. The ‘Ducks’ even extend to the cocktail list at Bebek with a Blue Duck [arak, pineapple juice, blue Curacao and lemon] and a Drunken Duck [arak, lemon and sugar] and many ‘Duck’ mocktails; Thirsty Duck [fresh pineapple, papaya and orange juice with coconut milk and banana] and a Sweet & Sour Duck [ginger, lemon, honey and mint] are but examples. Bebek Bengil Nusa must offer the cheapest cocktails along this Nusa Dua strip [all under Rp.100,000 even after adding tax and service]. This whole complex at The Bay is so different from what has been traditionally offered elsewhere in Nusa Dua, the combination of dining in a garden setting oceanfront previously only available at expensive 5 star hotel locations. It is nice to have some quality alternatives available in Nusa Dua, without the 5 star price tag!

by Dr. Rob Floated Malaysian Contemporary Artists’ Exhibition At Kendra Gallery, Jl. Drupadi 88B, Seminyak. Tel: 736628

Basangkasa,

Curated by Jakarta critic Rifky Effendy, the Kendra Gallery has mounted an exhibition entitled ‘Floated’, which presents works by three of Malaysia’s most celebrated and respected artists: Bayu Utomo Radjikin, Chong Siew Ying, and Jalaini Abu Hassan. The exhibition gives audiences in Bali an opportunity for a rare viewing of the art of these three leading Malaysian artists. Each artist has a distinct characteristic style, technical expertise, and displays very different themes.

and clouds in the sky mellow the fierce sunlight. Chong’s self-portrait is submerged underwater, like a shadow suddenly appearing on a mirror. This work contains many mysteries. Fragments of memories and an indeterminate location create a puzzle that expands far over the horizon.

Steaks

Bayu Utomo Radjikin is regarded as one of the Malaysia’s finest figurative artists, and he makes portraits in a series of theatrical gestures. He exaggerates certain gestures, poses, and human Seorang Jawa formations in a manner that can be vague and mysterious, yet, the images provide ample space for interpretation by the audience. In his blackand-white work ‘Seorang Jawa’, Bayu questions his identity as a Malaysian. He presents his own self-portrait wearing a piece of traditional East Javanese headwear known as a blangkon. Bayu’s parents were originally from Java, but he says their Javanese ethnicity was never discussed, and neither did it take any real form. His selfportrait might then be open for an interpretation regarding the meaning of origin and self-identity. Bayu feels that identity is an element that can be easily changed, just like clothing or any other attribute. He thinks that this is true in the current era of globalization, in which the issues of a ‘nation’ is not merely about a fixed entity or of a certain ethnic group and race. Chong Siew Ying creates works that are highly emotive while depicting her take on common themes like human psychology and nature. Chong mainly focuses on concepts associated with her internal values, such as her relationship with nature, and human beings in their intimate, lyrical, and poetic aspects. She presents images of nature that gives rise to a floating and Me, Underwater lonesome feeling. Although these are presented in black-and-white, her strong brushstrokes, created with controlled emotions, maintain a harmonic whole. In her piece ‘Me, Underwater’, Chong presents a coconut tree on a tropical beach with calm but deep waters. From afar a chain of mountains appears in the distance,

Jalaini Abu Hassan is known as a process artist who encourages chance in his works to stimulate new ideas of formal and narrative enquiry. Jalaini’s work is an amalgamation of traditional Malay life, together with images of Malaysia’s changing contemporary values. He consistently presents social and political themes, and is currently focused on the tendency of political powers to manipulate Malaysia’s national history. In his triptych ‘Steaks’, on the left is a portrait of Malaysia’s first king, who has been made vague under a transparent fabric placed over the canvas. The canvas in the middle presents images of two pieces of raw meat, with a Japanese kanji character meaning ‘welcome’. On the right is placed an image of a dog, which, according to Jalaini, symbolizes loyalty. For Jalaini the combined images serve as a mockery, a response tinged with humor in dealing with the issues of power. For Jalaini, history is a crucial and important issue, related to the practice of contemporary political manipulation in Malaysia today. The ‘Floated’ exhibition acts as a survey on how these artists read meaning into the social and cultural realities presently undergoing change in Malaysia. The show presents a space in the midst of uncertainties. It talks about signs and symbols perched on the edge of these artists’ beliefs, with regards to some essential values. Astral Projections Paintings by Bambang Wibawarta At Ganesha Gallery, Four Seasons Resort, Jimbaran Bay Tel: 701010 Bambang Wibawarta is not only a talented artist but also a noted scholar, and Dean of the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Indonesia. His art was the natural outgrowth of his education, which combined the mystical heritage of his place of birth, Java, and that of Japan, where he studied for many years. Poised between the two, he came to the realization that visual communication was a perfect non-verbal extension of his mind, merging intellect with intuition. Through his art he seeks a three-way dialogue between his inner-self, the greater universe, and art lovers.

During the last few years he has become fascinated with celestial orbs, especially the sun which he has referred to as the ‘Magic Circle’. In Japan such circles are referred to as ‘Enso’ and play an important role in the art of Zen Buddhism. In his exhibition, ‘Astral Projections’, Bambang’s paintings, like ‘Untitled 1’ Untitled 1 and ‘Untitled 2, juxtapose celestial orbs with human bodies, while, the latter are often only outlines of nude figures that seem to be dreaming. The question is whether the magic circles are astral projections of the dreamer or the figures projections of the orbs? This recalls the ‘Dream of the Butterfly’, a 2400 year old poem penned by the Taoist philosopher Zhuangxi. It begins with him telling of a dream in which he was a butterfly, only to awaken and question whether or not he was a butterfly dreaming he was a man. As Bambang knows it is all a matter of Untitled 2 perspective.

R. A. Kartini: Indonesia’s First Woman’s Emancipationist By Bill Dalton

Although she died in childbirth at age 25, Raden Ajeng Kartini (18791904) wrote one of the most important Indonesian literary works of the 20th century. Published in 1911 after her death and originally entitled Door Duisternis tot Licht (Through Darkness to Light), this book of Kartini’s provocative letters galvanized secular women’s groups and her life became an inspiration for Indonesia’s yearning for freedom. R. A. Kartini has been variously described as a harbinger of the Indonesian revolution, a nationalist hero, a romantic idealist, a proud promoter of Javanese traditions, a champion of the country’s long struggle for gender equality. What is not open to question is that this remarkable woman heralded Indonesia’s modern age and the name Kartini holds a special place in the history of international feminism. Today, schools, parks, hospitals, streets, buildings, swimming pools and foundations all over Indonesia are named in her honor. Each year a national holiday is held to commemorate her birth on April 21st when parades, contests, lectures, speeches and social programs are attended by schoolgirls, factory workers, university teachers, women’s organizations, all wearing splendid regional dress. On that special day, mothers aren’t allowed to work and children and fathers do the cooking, washing and housecleaning. Kartini was born into an aristocratic Javanese family, her father was the Regent of Jepara and her mother his first wife. The family had a strong intellectual tradition and she attended school where she learned to speak fluent Dutch, an unusual accomplishment for a Javanese woman of the time. When she turned 12, Kartini was secluded in the home, a common practice among the nobility to prepare young girls to be married. During her seclusion, Kartini continued her education, reading European magazines and newspapers, which fed her interest in such issues as child marriage, the role of women as second wives and mothers, and racial disharmony in colonial affairs. Starting in 1901, this well-educated young woman made the acquaintance of several Dutch pen pals and began writing a series of letters in which she wrote eloquently and passionately not just about the struggle of women to obtain autonomy and legal equality under a feudal and autocratic Javanese patriarchalism, but also about the problems Indonesian society faced as a whole. Against her wishes, Kartini’s parents arranged her marriage to the Regent of Rembang, who already had three wives. Kartini’s only son was born on September 13, 1904. A few days later Kartini died of complications from childbirth. Kartini had only realized one of her wishes during her short lifetime. Her husband understood his wife’s aims and allowed her to establish a school for women, the first of a dozen that were to follow throughout Java. Indonesia’s First Woman’s Emancipationist Each generation has used Kartini’s life story for their own social, political or ideological purposes. For the Dutch administration she was the embodiment of an enlightened policy for the colony’s subjects to aspire to. For the Indonesian communists, she was a rebellious woman who fought for the working class. For mothers, she is a saintly figure who died in suffering during childbirth. Academics have found her voluminous letters a major source of fascinating information, an eyewitness account of the life and spirit of the late-colonial period. She was the first Indonesian to ever have her emotionally honest private opinions published in Dutch. Not a feminist in the narrow sense, Kartini saw that the struggle for women was just a part of a larger struggle of her countrymen. From the earliest years of the independence movement, Indonesians have found in this young intellectual a symbol of modern Indonesian womanhood. Her dreams of improving education, promoting the traditional arts, public health and

economic justice preceded the nationalist movement by at least a decade. To this day, successful women entrepreneurs and women’s groups strongly identify with her, using her life as a model for their own political and social agendas. The manner of her untimely death even influenced the training of midwives in Batavia. But the events of R. A. Kartini’s life and her mythological status as a nationalist figure are riddled with ironies. Though men largely carried out the fight for independence, discussions of early Indonesian nationalism can’t even begin without mention of her name. Though a hero of Indonesia’s independence struggle, she would not have recognized herself as Indonesian but only as a member of the privileged Javanese aristocracy who worked handin-hand with the Dutch colonial authorities. Two of the greatest works in Indonesian literature - Kartini’s passionate Letters as well as Multatuli’s anti-imperialist novel Max Havelaar - were written in Dutch. Although Kartini is revered as an outspoken advocate for the liberation of women, Kartini Day is celebrated by girls dressing up in elaborate Kartini look-alike competitions exalting feminine beauty. On April 21st, Kartini’s birthday, busloads of schoolgirls make a pilgrimage to Kartini’s gravesite in Bulu Village, 17 km south of Rembang. Many bring flowers, as is customary when showing respect for one’s mentor. Within the complex is the guesthouse “Puncak Winahyu” modeled after an old Javanese-style residence. In the one-room museum, there are a few photocopies of Kartini’s letters, framed certificates, some portraits of Kartini, wedding clothes, paintings by Kartini. The burial site on the top of a hill is actually the Adhiningrat family’s grave complex where 40 of her husband’s family and her descendants are also buried, including her son, Major General R.M. Soesalit Djojo Adhiningrat, who fought against the Dutch as commander of the Diponegoro Division. A Pilgrimage from Java’s Heartland On a recent visit t o m y w i f e ’s torrid dusty f a r m i n g community, we put out the word among the village girls about the long road trip we were taking the next day. Our destination was Museum Kartini and my 12-yearold daughter Aysah had invited as many of her friends as could fit into our old Toyota. Early the next morning four sleepy daughters of farmers, carpenters and teachers showed up and we set off for the nine-hour drive to Jepara on the north coast. It was the dry season and the pot-holed back road from Karang to Purwodadi took us through a desolate farming country of white hump-backed Zebu cattle, stony river beds, ramshackle goat stables, field workers with straw conical hats and shady hills covered with stands of big leaf teak trees. Long rambling limasan on dry one-acre tracts faced the rocky roadway that cut through scraggly corn, sugar, cassava and peanut fields. This was not the sort of world that R. A. Kartini knew. The sheltered daughter of the Javanese nobility, she was bred in a refined environment of spacious rooms, house servants, polite conversation in High Javanese and daily journal writing in quiet studies, light years away from the toiling peasants of the hinterlands. In Mayong, 23 km southeast of Jepara, we stopped at Kartini’s birthplace memorialized in a small fenced enclosure 150 meters from the highway. Inside a statue of a lotus blossom, a symbol of enlightenment marked the site of her birth. As we neared Jepara gigantic empty furniture warehouses and multi-story showrooms started to appear, a shadow of the 3500 thriving furniture industries shipping out 1200 containers a month during the boom years of the late ‘90s. A Tribute to Tempoe Doeloe Java In the hot early afternoon we entered the city limits. A huge gateway emblazoned with “Jepara Bumi Kartini” alongside “Jepara Koto Ukir” proclaimed Jepara’s twin distinctions as Kartini’s hometown and Java’s woodcarving capital. Driving down a street of majestic 30-meter-tall royal palms, we passed the Kartini Hospital, a statue of Kartini, and Kartini Beach lay straight ahead. Two big tourist buses sat in the parking lot of Museum Kartini on

the north side of the city’s alun-alun. Opened in 1977 in the former house of the city’s Wali Kota, the comments in the museum’s guestbook indicated that visitors were overwhelmingly Indonesian. We paid the modest Rp3000 entrance (Rp1500 children) at a small table opposite a giant bust of R. A. Kartini. This writer was one of only five or so foreign tourists (mostly Dutch) the museum receives monthly. An elderly group on a reunion tour and several jilbab-ed women from a PKK club in Banjarnegara were being led around three big rooms filled with Joyodiningrat family heirlooms, a horse carriage, old ceramics, ancient Hindu artifacts and traditional farming implements. The most valuable of the museum’s holdings were marvelously well-preserved sets of elegant turn-of-the-century tropical colonial furniture. The curator showed us a few bootlegged publications on Kartini’s life, though her book of letters in any language were not available. Aysah complained that the papers and photos kept behind the glass cases were “not real.”Not a single one of Kartini’s 108 original letters – some of the most influential documents in the whole body of Indonesian literature – were among the displays. Nor are they in Jakarta’s National Museum or National Archives. Kartini’s original correspondences are now held in the Special Collections of the Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies (KITLV) in Holland. But whether you look upon Kartini as a saintly mother, ur-feminist or champion of the upward mobility for women, this exceptionally intelligent young woman’s observations about the struggle for women’s equality and the social and political aspirations of her people, way ahead of their time, can be found appropriately on a much wider public forum, the most equalitarian mass communications system ever invented. Copies in English of Kartini’s famous Letters are downloadable free on the Internet.

The Puri Anom of Tabanan Pak Agung Oka – the great great grandson of the last raja - met us at the narrow street entrance that led into the palace, dressed immaculately in white and greeting us with a big smile. This Pak Agung Oka royal precinct is seldom visited by tourists, so we had to make an appointment beforehand. Pak Agung led us into the first bustling internal courtyard, a large rectangular gathering space called Becingah (Puri Dalem) dominated by a giant waringan tree. Under its sinuous branches was the pura puseh, the so-called “Navel Temple,” founded even before the palace was built, commemorating the ancestors of Tabanan’s original settlements. Men sat and stood in groups while hundreds of women dressed in white with matching sarong and thin white headbands were busy making offerings in open pavilions in a communal effort (nyah) to prepare for the Tahu Agung celebration in the middle of April. Preparations had already been taking place for two weeks, the road in front of the palace’s main entrance blocked off and traffic rerouted to make a wide swing around the puri’s outer perimeter. In high matters of ritual obligations, inconvenience to city drivers holds little importance. A Turbulent History The Kingdom of Tabanan in west Bali has had a lively history. R e c o r d s indicate it came under the suzerainty of East Java’s King Airlangga in 1037. When Majapahit Ancak saji reception hall invaded Bali in A.D. 1343, the territory was awarded to one of Gajah Mada’s field generals, Arya Kenceng. In appreciation of his valiant services, this legendary first raja of the regency was granted large amounts of the lands to the south and around presentday Mengwi. This prosperous kingdom evolved into a number of wealthy jero, the upper castes of the court, the most influential being the rival houses of Puri Anom and Puri Kaleran a little to the north. The original main palace was founded by Raja Singasana and expanded during Tabanan’s classical period from in the 17th to 20th centuries. Tabanan, Mengwi and Penebel were almost constantly at war until 1891 when Mengwi was defeated by a coalition of princes. Through a series of court intrigues, assassinations, truces, and marriages, the principal houses of the Tabanan district were all formed by the late 19th century. The death of Raja Ngurah Agung, and his cremation in 1903, was carried out with traditional sute rites in which the wives of the late raja followed their husband in death by jumping into the funeral pyre. This spectacular cremation, the last recorded in Bali, caused outrage amongst the Dutch and was to contribute to their decision to invade Bali in 1906. A few weeks after the fall of Badung (present-day Denpasar), the Dutch expeditionary forces marched on Tabanan. King Gusti Ngurah Agung chose not to sacrifice his family and his army in a suicidal puputan. Instead, the king and his son attempted to negotiate a settlement with the Dutch who promptly took them prisoner and only offered them exile to nearby Madura or Lombok. The king cut his own throat with a blunt knife and the crown prince took poison in a Denpasar prison two days later. Most of the surviving royalty were exiled to Lombok. Palace treasures – jewelery, ritual objects and the raja’s precious kris - were sold off by the Dutch to offset the costs of maintaining the exiles on the neighboring island.

The magnificent palace of the raja was plundered and razed and a Dutch controller’s office was established. Since the rajadom had not entered into any agreement with the Dutch, the heirs lost their titles to all the royal lands which were parceled out to the individual village councils (banjar). Historians believe this early widespread redistribution of land to the peasants accounts for Tabanan’s prosperous rice economy of today. In 1929, the D u t c h reorganized Bali’s kingdoms into nine sovereign states, restoring each raja’s title and authority, a status that lasted until Tandakan 1950, when Sukarno abolished Indonesia’s royalty with the stroke of a pen. Today, Tabanan’s royal palace Puri Anom is located very near the commercial center of Tabanan City, the capital of Tabanan Regency, only several minutes walk from the main pasar. The Palace Tour Unlike Europe, Balinese palaces (puri) are not single huge buildings but rather a collection of numerous courtyards, open pavilions and structures each with a special function. The gradually sloping royal sanctified space of Tabanan’s puri, laid out on an east to west plane, consists of a series of squaredoff, walled courtyards – a peaceful maze of gates, alleyways, gardens, family chapels, pavilions and old style residences - its layout actually a duplicate of the cosmos expressed as an architectural metaphor. Everywhere I turned I could see rare Chinese plates embedded as decorations in walls and temple gates. This imported glazed porcelain was perceived to possess a higher and more refined status than the usual humble terracotta pottery of Bali. No other antiques or art objects remain. Our walk was to take us through a labyrinth of walkways which turned at right and left angles, Pak Agung pointing out the various significant structures. The grounds within the palace’s high walls had a rarified atmosphere made even more so because the environs feels partly abandoned. I met no palace retainers or anyone else on the tour. Like an empty and unattended outdoor museum, no one Gateway to Saren Kauh presently lives in the palace proper. As is the case with most of Bali’s stately palaces, it is the royal family’s responsibility and expense to continue to maintain the buildings and grounds even without an incumbent raja. Buildings, walls and gateways have been repaired, roofs replaced, and patches of new cement are evident. Though the palace is typical of the southern style of architecture, with masses of red brick walls and gateways relieved by carved ornamentation, the structures lack the delicacy found in the puri of Gianyar and Badung. Some guardian sculptures, which provide a relaxed sense of security, are masterfully carved. All the architectural elements are in perfect harmony with the setting, in particular the ponderous red brick entrance ways which harken back to an earlier time. These thick gateways consist of many forms flowing out from one central point, a fundamental feature of Bali Hindu architecture. Many of the roofs are made of traditional alangalang black thatch. A good many of the scarred and crumbling walls look to be well over a hundred years old, presumably having survived the ransacking and destruction of the palace by the Dutch in the early 19th century. The entranceway to the palace proper, Apit Surang or Kori, opposite the big waringan tree, is rather unimposing. We

walked up several wide steps and into the first courtyard, Ancak Saji, with its exceptional reception hall on the right hand side, a rather curious building with a long portico for receiving and viewing guests. This pavilion only comes to life during palace ceremonies. On the left-hand side was a red sandstone gateway which leads down steps to the Suji Ageng enclosure with its collection of altars (sangga ) representing royalty families from Batukaru, Petali, Besi Kalung, Tamba Wares, Batu Madeg, Gunung Agung, etc. - the entire Tabanan ruling group spread all over Bali. Pak Agung explained that this chapel is for the public to pay their respects to the Tabanan royal family. Once a year, 18 days before Galungan, an odalan is celebrated here, and the altars are also reconsecrated after royal tooth filings, alterations or repairs or after some natural misfortune such as volcanic eruptions. Notice the sculpture of a deer head above the first altar. In a time when Bali was still heavily forested, the rajas were avid hunters and deer were their favorite game. Next we turned west through another red brick gateway and entered the s e c o n d courtyard, Bale Kembar, with two identical open pavilions with purple skirts - Saren Kangin and Jineng rice storage shed Saren Tengah facing each other. Here the bodies of rajas (para raja) from the realm and their wives lie in state before their ritual cremation. Through yet another gateway, the third courtyard, is the old raja’s residence, Tandakan. Tabanan’s White House, the elaborately decorated terrace, doorway and ceiling served as a reception. An outmoded satellite dish in the rear is no longer in service and is now filled with fallen leaves. On the right side is a open pavilion where the corpse of the raja in residence is laid before it is prepared for final cremation in the Bale Kembar. A faded and worn old wayang painting depicts a royal Balinese cremation. A plain, stolid and patched up entranceway, with no decoration except for some geometrically shaped wood carvings at the top, takes the visitor to the occupied portion of the palace - the fourth section - where the raja’s family still resides. We pass an old style traditional jineng (lumbung) rice storage shed, built of bamboo matting, wood slats and original tree trunk pillars, its corrugated iron roof has long since replaced the thatched alang alang. This last courtyard contains the palace’s most exquisite collection of intact porcelain. On the left (south) is a gateway that is literally covered in a variety of bright white plates. Further on, the Suji Alit open pavilion is for the queen’s body to rest before cremation; the latticed platform has the appearance of a bed. An old black and white photograph on the wall is of Raja Arya Ngurah and his wife. On the right is most picturesque gateway in the whole puri which leads into the raja’s own private chapel, Saren Kauh. Flanked by stone demons, entwined with delicate plant tendrils and framed by potted plants and thin grasses, the doorway has just the right balance of antiquity, sculptural finesse and unpretentious natural beauty. Inside, as is the case in any high-borne place of prayer, the various altars are of a Chinesepagoda-type construction with pyramidal roofs. The tour ended here. Beyond were obvious signs of the actual living quarters of family members. Emerging from the quiet and peaceful environs of the puri, civilization had returned. But the very fact that the palace was unoccupied gave it a nostalgic, almost forlorn air in the same way that Ta Prohm, the only unrestored Angkorian temple, lends that magnificent ruin an atmosphere of profound mystery and drama.

Local News Survivor Wants Accused Bali Bomber Executed An Australian survivor of the 2002 Bali bombings has called for the death penalty for alleged bomber Umar Patek after testifying at his trial in Jakarta. Peter Hughes was badly burned by the attacks, his swollen, blistered body captured in footage of the aftermath.

how the bombings affected them. Mr McCartney, a Victorian footballer who survived burns to nearly half his body, rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs to show judges his scars. He told the court he was relaxing with friends at a bar when he was knocked to the ground by an explosion.

On Thursday (5/4) he told Umar Patek’s trial that the incident had left him isolated, lonely, depressed and very angry. It is the first time he has come face to face with Patek, who is accused of mixing the chemicals used to make the bombs.

“I saw the building on fire, I saw people on fire, then I realised I was on fire,” he said. Mr McCartney recounted the agony of his burns, the financial burden of hospital bills and the pain of not being able to return to professional sport.

After he left the witness chair, Mr Hughes gave Patek a hard stare and outside the court he called for the death penalty to be imposed. Two bombs exploded in Bali’s Kuta tourist strip on October 12, 2002, one at Paddy’s Irish Bar and the second shortly after in a van outside the nearby Sari club. Mr Hughes, and fellow Australian survivors Jason McCartney and Stuart Anstee, were asked by prosecutors to testify on

“I do still have a great love for Indonesia, and Bali in particular, but I also have sadness about what happened, not only to me, but many other innocent people - and anger,” he said. Speaking outside the court, Mr McCartney and Mr Hughes said it was important for them to have their say. “I didn’t want to be out there crying poor, but I had to do that today to get the message across of how much it’s really affected

me,” Mr McCartney said. “It was personal, it was about us today. I think what we were doing today was for all Australian people,” Mr Hughes said. Steven Cabler, an American musician from California who was on a surfing trip in Bali with friends at the time of the attack, recalled the devastation and death at the Sari club. His friend, Steve Webster, died in the attack. “When the explosion happened, it was big, it was massive, and I hit my head very hard against my friend’s head, and had some fluid on me, and (it) exploded my eardrums,” said Mr Cabler, who lost the hearing in his left ear. “The bomb was like the power of a hurricane, I just want to say it was massive.” Umar Patek was arrested last year in the same Pakistani town where US commandos later killed Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden. He has admitted to mixing the explosives but says he played no part in assembling the bomb. (April 6th 2012)

Maternal health and Mortality Still Concerning in Indonesia Indonesia may be progressing slowly and steadily toward fulfilling its targets under the Millennium Development Goals, but the issue of maternal health continues to present many challenges. Government statistics show that the maternal mortality rate declined from 308 per 100,000 live births in 2007 to 228 per 100,000 in 2010. Under the MDGs, the country must bring that figure down to 102 deaths per 100,000 live births by 2015. But a report last week by health officials in Bali has highlighted a worrying reversal, with the provincial maternal mortality rate increasing from 58 per 100,000 in 2010 to 84 last year.

government for free. The mortality rate has increased because what used to be unaccounted deaths at home are now recorded in our health centers as more mothers rely on these services. “Indeed, the absolute number as recorded has increased, but the real rate has gone down.” Slamet said health workers failed to provide timely assistance to mothers for several reasons: reluctance by some women to report their pregnancies early, lack of transportation forcing women to give birth at home without proper medical equipment or drugs, and limited medical facilities and personnel.

Nyoman Sutedja, the head of the Bali Health Office, attributed the increase to the lack of quality health care available at community health centers (Puskesmas). Slamet Riyadi Yuwono, the Health Ministry’s director general for nutrition and child and maternal health, acknowledged that maternal mortality rates might be on the rise in some regions but cautioned against reading too much into the figures.

The principles of regional autonomy also pose a challenge to the Ministry’s ability to oversee local health services, he said. “The ministry can only provide technical support and devise standard operating procedures for local medical practitioners, but administrative powers lie with the local government,” he said. “We have no power to punish or sack individual midwives and doctors.

He said the rise could be attributed to the government’s 2010 policy to provide free maternal and child delivery services. “Many people used to give birth at home because they were afraid and uninformed,” Slamet said. “Today, more are willing to use the service provided by the

“However, the government has instructed governors to advise district heads on health issues. ”Transportation is a key element in tackling maternal mortality, said Zaenal Abidin, the secretary general of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI).

“Indonesia is an archipelagic state. It is important to have medical boats that can act like an ambulance to deliver pregnant mothers to another island that has the necessary medical facilities,” he said. “The boats should be equipped with complete facilities, including antibiotics, IVs and oxygen concentrators.” He said local customs also had the potential to do harm. In East Nusa Tenggara, for instance, newborn babies and mothers are traditionally required to stay in a closed room with a wood fire burning for up to six weeks. Zaenal stressed that health workers must educate local communities about the dangers of some rituals and traditions that put the health of both the mother and the baby at risk. “Doctors sent to the provinces receive pre-departure training that teaches them about the local traditions that they will be working with,” he said. “They should also prepare themselves by reading or asking their seniors who’ve been there for advice.” He also noted the need to be aware of local sensitivities. “There are good and bad cultural practices,” he said. “We wish to keep the former and change the latter. But we cannot confront the public outright, as that will only lead to rejection”. (April 3rd 2012)

Bali’s Fuel Prices Rise with Property Market The Jakarta Post recently reported that Bali’s government disclosed a plan to increase the price of subsidized fuel by Rp$1,500 (US16 cents) to Rp. 6,000 (US 65 cents) as of April 1. Although a final decision has not been announced property prices have already begun rising. Real Estate Indonesia’s (REI) Bali branch chairman Dewa Putu Selawa said property prices have increased 15 per cent on average since early March. “The increase is not only because the rising price of construction materials. The property business is very sensitive to rumors and discourse. Once the discourse of the fuel-price hike started, all property business people reacted by increasing the prices,” said Selawa. Selawa also said that those in the real-estate business showed various reactions, depending on their capital. About 25 per cent of the island’s real estate tycoons who had hefty capital were holding onto their property stock

while waiting for the government’s final decision. “Many businessmen canceled the sale of their properties because of the discourse. That’s because the prices would again increase when the fuel price is hiked. They were waiting to get the highest profit.” Selawa is one of the individuals who has raised the prices of his properties. According to the Post, those with small capital had no choice but to sell their properties at the current prices. “I have a property that is worth Rp 350 million per 100 square meters. Due to the discourse on fuel-price hike, I increased the price up to Rp. 500 million per 100 square meters. When the fuel price is hiked, the prices of other needs would increase and the land prices would also increase,” said Selawa. Even if the government does not go through with the plan he is confident that property prices will not fall. “Don’t ever expect that property prices will go down. The property prices will always rise,” he said. Another property developer,

Widiana Kepakisan, said that the discourse about fuel prices has increased the price of building materials, transportation, as well as cost of labor. “The discourse has automatically driven the increase of land prices,” he said. “Fuel is like a political commodity. Once the government in Jakarta said they will increase the price, it affected businesses in this island automatically.” Widiana also increased the prices of his properties in Jimbaran. “A unit of house type 70, which was worth only Rp. 825 million before the discourse, now is priced at Rp 925 million per unit,” he said. Bali has the highest rate of increased land prices in the country. A recent study by Knight Frank and Elite Havens shows the price of land in Bali increased by an average 34 percent in 2011, while the normal growth rate was only around 8 to 16 percent.

Paddle Out to Honour Expatriate Dad A community paddle -out was held to celebrate the life of expatriate Dad Darren Oates on Sanur beach, Saturday (14/4). Darren passed away from a sudden illness while on vacation in Japan with his family several weeks ago. Darren, Helen and their children Elli, Lissa, and Phebe have been living in Bali for many years and have become active members in the Sanur expatriate community. Darren will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure to know him. (April 14th 2012). Teen Girl Jailed in Bali After Selling Other Girls for Sex A Bali court sentenced a teenage girl to three years in prison on Monday (2/4) for selling three younger girls into the sex trade. The Denpasar District Court also ruled that Ananda Fitriani, 17, should pay a Rp 30 million ($3,270) fine or serve an additional two months behind bars for failure to pay. Handing down the verdict, Judge Erly Soelistiarini said that Fitriani was clearly guilty of violating Article 88 on the economic and sexual exploitation of a minor, under the 2002 Child Protection Law. She could have faced up to 10 years in prison and Rp 200 million in fines. The sentence was lighter than the six years and Rp 60 million in fines sought by prosecutors. The case came to the attention of the authorities after the parents of one of the victims, identified only as 16-year-old I.S., reported in January that their daughter was missing. Police later found her in a boarding house on Jalan Raya Sesetan in Denpasar, which belonged to Fitriani’s family. Fitriani also lived there. Police said I.S. told them that for three days, Fitriani had forced her to provide sex for men in a number of hotels. She told officers that from the Rp 400,000 to Rp 500,000 ($44 to $55) each man paid, Fitriani gave her Rp 200,000 to Rp 300,000 and kept the rest. Police said that Fitriani sold two other girls, also 16, to men for sex in hotels in Denpasar and Kuta. (April 3rd 2012)

Italian Arrested in Bali for Holding 1. 4 kg of Marijuana A 33-year old Italian has been arrested in Bali after being found in possession of 1.4 kg of marijuana. The news was revealed by the spokesperson of the local police. The arrest was performed Friday (30/3) afternoon at the international airport of the local tourist resort which he had reached on a flight from Kuala Lumpur, in Malaysia. The police found the drugs thanks to an X-ray check after the dogs had smelled the marijuana. According to the very strict Indonesian law, being found in possession of more than 1 kg of marijuana is punishable with the death sentence, although it is customary to only hand down long prison sentences. D.P., the Italian national arrested, claims he purchased the drugs in India. The police suspects that the drugs were intended for other Italians within the framework of an international drug-dealing network. (March 31st 2012) Some 49 Convicts in Corruption-Related Cases not yet Jailed Some 49 convicts involved in various corruption cases in Indonesia have not had their sentences carried out, a spokesman from Indonesia Corruption watch (IPW) said. “Twenty-five of them have run away, while the remaining 24 people have not yet been sent to jail,” spokesman to ICW Emerson F Juntho said here on Tuesday. He named Riau province as the area with the largest number of convicts (17) who have not had their sentences carried out by the police, followed by Jakarta (5), West Java (4) and East Java (4). Emerson urged the attorney’s office and local police to boost their performance and jail the convicts. He also suggested that related authorities conduct preventive actions to prevent the convicts from leaving the country. (April 10th 2012) 8.6 Magnitude Quake Sparks Tsunami Fears in Aceh

Indonesia Recommends Clemency for Schapelle Corby Schapelle Corby is a step closer to winning her freedom with Indonesia’s Justice Ministry confirming it has recommended the convicted drug smuggler be granted early release. The development, which comes two years after Corby first launched her bid for clemency, will come as a huge boost for the 34-year-old who is suffering from mental illness and struggling to cope with life inside Bali’s notorious Kerobokan jail. Corby was jailed for 20 years in 2004 for attempting to smuggle 4.1kg of marijuana into Bali in a bodyboard bag. While details of the recommendation from the Justice and Human Rights Ministry have only just emerged, a senior official confirmed the final report was handed to Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono some months ago. The ministry has recommended a major cut in Corby’s sentence based on humanitarian grounds. It is understood to be in line with the opinion of a Supreme Court judge who considered Corby’s clemency application and delivered an opinion to the President’s office in July 2010, recommending her sentence be halved. Dr Yudhoyono’s decision will be based on the recommendation from the Justice and Human Rights Ministry, as well as advice from the Attorney-General’s Department, Foreign Ministry and National Narcotics Board, which he sought in 2010 after Corby lodged her application. If Corby is granted clemency and a sentence cut of 10 years, she would be eligible for release in 2014 - the same year Dr Yudhoyono will leave office. However, successful clemency applications usually require prisoners to admit guilt, which Corby has not done. “If this clemency is to be granted, it will be a breakthrough,” Mr Nawing said.

Sirens wailed, warnings blared and police moved millions of people away from coastlines around the Indian Ocean as Wednesday’s (11/4) 8.6 magnitude earthquake off northern Indonesia sparked fears of another devastating tsunami. Damage was light - the quakes were horizontal rather than vertical - and the big waves never came, unlike eight years ago when walls of water roared across the same ocean and ploughed into seaside communities in 13 countries without warning. “The reports were of people panicking but there was little damage. We need to check for sure,” Eko Budiman, deputy head of the emergency mitigation agency, said at Medan airport in Sumatra, struggling to reach Simeulu island near the epicentre. Five people died in northern Indonesia, at least two from heart attacks, the agency said. The alerts and evacuations mean a regional system passed a major test since the tsunami of 2004 that killed 230,000 people, including 170,000 in northern Indonesia alone. But luck helped avert disaster this time as much as the warning system, especially in Indonesia’s Aceh province, where roads were jammed with residents trying to flee and damaged power lines silenced the sirens. “The simple message is that in any critical condition like this it’s impossible to get everyone out in time,” said Keith Loveard, chief risk analyst at Jakarta-based security firm Concord Consulting. “The tsunami alert system worked to a degree. While awareness has improved, reinforced by 2004, it still needs to get better through public education and government campaigns.” The scenes in Banda Aceh showed the roads are just not big enough, he said, pointing to the need to build up infrastructure and “put cities in a different place.” (April 12th 2012)

Indonesia to Soon Develop Renewable Energy Indonesia will soon develop renewable energy to replace the country`s diminishing oil reserves, according to Deputy Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry, Kardaya Warnika. “Indonesia has oil reserves of about 4 billion barrels, and it is estimated this will run out within the next 11 years. Therefore, we need to develop renewable energy as soon as possible,” Kardaya recently said on the sidelines of a seminar entitled `The Development of New Renewable Energy to Save Fossil Fuel for the Sake of National Resilience`. Officials note that renewable energy could become a solution for dealing with the energy crisis and maintaining energy resilience. Currently, the nation receives up to 95 percent of its energy supply from fossil energy, such as oil, natural gas and coal. The attraction of renewable energy includes its being environmentally friendly, endless and available domestically. “Investment in oil and gas would require billions of US dollars, while renewable energy needs only billions of rupiahs,” he noted. The government hopes that the development of renewable energy will reach 25 percent of the nation`s needs by 2025. However, subsidies are a factor hampering the development of renewable energy, he added. The ministry is currently developing 100 megawatts of solar power energy (PLTS) and 50 megawatts of windmill power energy. A location for the development of PLTS is being looked for, while a windmill power energy plant will be built in Yogyakarta. (April 9th 2012) France Committed to Increasing Cooperation with Bali The French government is committed to broadening cooperation with Bali`s provincial government, an envoy said here on Monday (2/4). “We want to cooperate, not only for emergency responses, but also on a variety of problem solving issues. I am very pleased to have the opportunity to meet with the Governor of Bali to discuss this,” said French Ambassador to Indonesia Bertrand Lortholary on the sidelines of his visit to Bali`s Disaster Management office in Denpasar on Monday (2/4). Lortholary added that cooperation between both parties has been going well, which is demonstrated by the existence of the Disaster Management office building in Bali. Going beyond disaster management cooperation, the French government wants to increase its collaboration with Bali`s municipality, including the promotion of Balinese culture in France. “Thousands of Indonesian students are studying in France, and we want the number to increase. Even for those who do not speak the French language, there is a lot of training being conducted so students can understand the French culture and language better,” noted the ambassador. According to Lortholary, Bali is one of the unique places in the world in terms of its landscape, and the spontaneous and good nature of its people. “I think there is a mystery that surrounds Bali,” he added. On the other hand, Lortholary also stressed the importance of ensuring the safety and security of French tourists visiting Bali. “The issue of safety is very important to us, as there are more and more French people visiting Bali. A total of 120 thousand French citizens visit Bali every year. After arriving here, I have seen for myself that the control center is very good and those who work there are dedicated,” he added. Meanwhile, Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika presented a number of programs undertaken by the Bali municipality to address various problems, such as traffic jams. Mangku Pastika also hoped that cooperation between France and Bali could be further improved. (April 2nd 2012)

Update

Ryoshi

has moved into a new permanent home in Ubud. It is in Padang Tegal, south of Ubud, on Jln. Hanoman, next door to Bebek Bengil and only metres away from its recent temporary home [since moving from original position on Raya Ubud, 12 months ago]. The new location is quite remarkable, a low spacious building, Japanese style floor seating on one side [with what I call ‘cheat tables’, a well in the floor under the table for your feet], and normal table and chairs in air-conditioned rooms as well as the essential Sushi Bar. The rear view is of rugged bush and rice paddies, the location very Ubud! The restaurant design very Japanese! A good reason to visit a quality Japanese restaurant is to enjoy a wonderful, clean, fresh plate of Sushi for lunch. What could be healthier? At Ryoshi the offerings are of unbelievable value, my favourite is the Pisang combo, 12 pieces of sushi for less than $8 [the maki roll is cut into three which makes 14 in my book]. If this is too large a plate for you then try the Salak [pictured]. Sushi to be at its best should be prepared fresh, just for you, and not pre-prepared hours or days before and refrigerated. At Ryoshi you can sit and watch it being made. It arrives accompanied by a small dish, a lump of wasabi [often referred to as Japanese horseradish but tasting more like a hot mustard] on its side, and a little pile of gari [sweet thinly sliced young ginger] on the edge of the sushi board. My kind of lunch! If you want to follow that with meat then you can’t go past the special Wagyu Steak [cooked rare, cross-sliced and served on a hot iron plate]. Then there are always the old favourites, Chicken Teriyaki, Pork Katsu Don or Beef Sukiyaki. Pengosetan and the lower end of Padang Tegal are now the budget eating strip of Ubud with more than 30 restaurants within a kilometer or two [Balinese, Indonesian, Indian, Italian, Thai, German, Taiwanese, Texan, Mexican, French Bakery, Japanese and even a few of those all too common ‘tourist’ restaurants].

Red Duck is the latest addition to Bali’s Chinatown [Jlns. Kuta/Tuban], joining the 50+

other Chinese eateries along this strip. The new clean air-conditioned premises promise something special. As the name suggests Chinese Roasted Duck is their specialty, presented in many different forms than the norm; Herbal, Ginseng, Crispy [maybe Ubud Chinese, but probably just means crisp-skinned a Chinese special] and Red. The menu is a mix of standards and unusual dishes. Entrees of Dim Sum, both deep-fried and steamed, plus Salted Egg Red Duck style, Deep-fried Golden Melon with salted egg, Hot & Sour Szechuan soup and a Double Boiled Apple soup with fish. Many seafood options [some live] including Abalone, Crab, Scallop, Sea Cucumber, Lobster, Prawns and Stone Fish. Unusual to find Shark on a Bali menu, served in black pepper sauce or Hunan style [tourists from Western Australia will love that, 3 young men have been mauled to death by sharks in recent weeks, surfing, diving and just swimming off the south-west…sharks are definitely their No.l enemy!]. I ordered a mixed plate of Roast Duck and Cha Siew, which came as a surprisingly small serve for the price charged.

The Bay is complete. The beachfront area east of The Grand Hyatt and adjacent to The Bali Collection now hosts a huge dining and lifestyle complex. On 3.2 hectare and after an investment of around 40-50 billion rupiah (around 5 million US dollars) The Bay Bali now consists of Bebek Bengil Nusa Dua [it was the first restaurant to open in this complex, which it did late in 2011] and Opera Beach Club which is itself, three restaurants in one. Mainly offering Thai cuisine but also includes Benihana [a large Japanese Teppanyaki] and Gyu-Kaku [Japanese BBQ]. Also in the same complex is Ulin Gallery, Times Bookstore and Focus Adventure. Warung Kesari is hidden down a narrow lane [Jln. Kesari] at the southern end of Jln. Danau Tamblingan, opposite the Sanur Hyatt. Not far to walk down if you park your car on the main road. A small clean café it is open for early morning breakfasts; Full Breakfast [eggs, sausage, bacon, tomato, baked beans, toast and jam] for just Rp. 40,000+, plus Omelettes and French Toast amongst the other options. The main menu is a mix of local and International. The usual snacks [calamari rings, mini pasties, hamburgers, steak sandwich], many soups [including Thai Tom Yum and a Pumpkin laced with coriander], steaks, schnitzels and the inevitable Fish & Chips given the obvious Australian connection [a kangaroo adorns the menu front cover], but with your choice of fish; white snapper, mahi-mahi, barramundi or tuna or a choice of smaller portions of three different fish served with chips and salad. As well there are Garlic or Chilli Prawns with mash and a few popular locals [Rendang, Kare Ayam or Nasi Uduk Jakarta]. It is a surprisingly big menu for such a small place. A sports screen is in use but is unobtrusive, and the now essential free Wi-Fi. Warung Kesari gives the impression of being a small home away from home for regular locals from the nearby villas. 2M is a Warung Lesehan. That means you can eat seated on the floor if you wish! Well, you

used to able to until the roof blew away in those wild storms pre-Nyepi. 2M is one of those old Bali icons, been there longer than anyone can remember. Situated on Raya Singapadu it has been a refresher stop for thousands of travellers bound for Ubud or Kintamani over the years. It is conveniently located half way between the turn-offs for The Bird Park and Bali Zoo. In front is a spacious car park, the other side views of rice paddies. It is now going through a major renovation, the main building already complete which now includes a small dining area. The old dining area is now being fitted out as an open lounge terrace with bamboo fencing. 2M will soon be serving its local specialties, including that unique ‘Chineesse’ cuisine that it advertises on its sign at the front! Simple, cheap food in a relaxed environment, nothing wrong with that!

Cafe Moka in Ubud moved from Jln. Raya Ubud to Jln. Dewi Sita less than one year ago. It must have been a mistake! It is now closing and a new smaller version is replacing it at the Bintang Supermarket, Campuhan, where it will be taking over another failed site formerly run by The Mansions. It is very strange as 10 years ago Dewa Sita earned the title of Ubud’s Coffee Street when popular cafes such as Batan Waru and the old original Tutmak, regularly had footpath queues waiting for empty tables during breakfast, lunch and dinner times. Granted there have been many new places opened on this street during recent years, but most of these remain devoid of customers anyway. Is it the fickle local expat [maybe and usually] and/or the changing face of Ubud tourism, which has been showing a decided trend downwards to a new wave of budget travelers with less sophisticated tastes? This trend is also much to the chagrin of the top-end restaurants, all of whom are now struggling. Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com C/NV/G-18 April 12

By Ayu Spicy

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) “Ayu Spicy!” The smoked mahi-mahi in the fridge was calling to me but I needed inspiration for what to do with it. Crab cakes seem to be very popular these days so I thought why not substitute the smoked fish? The results are ‘moorish’. You can buy both the smoked fish and the ground smoked paprika at Dijon.

- 1/4 cup preserved lemon, finely chopped (optional or See BA April 2009 for recipe) - salt to taste

Smoky Fish Cakes

Boil the chopped potato in salted water until soft. Drain and set aside to cool about 10 minutes.

About 12 cakes

Directions:

Meanwhile heat 1½ Tbl. of the olive oil in a frying pan. When hot add the chopped onions and garlic and stir fry until browned, about 5 minutes. Take off the heat and set aside.

In a large bowl mash the potatoes with a potato masher. Add the chopped smoked fish and mash again. Mix well. Add the onion-garlic mixture, freshly ground pepper, the beaten egg, lemon juice, Tabasco, the chopped chives and parsley, the ground smoked paprika and the chopped preserved lemon. Thoroughly mix these ingredients. Taste the mixture for salt but remember the fish and the lemons are salty to start so you probably don’t need to add more.

Take 1/2 cup of the potato mixture and form into a cake about 1 cm thick and 7 cm in diameter. Finish all the potato mixture like this. You should have about 12 cakes. Ingredients: - 3 cups potatoes, skinned and chopped - 1/2 tsp. salt - 3 Tbl. olive oil - 1/2 cup yellow onion, finely chopped - 2 gloves of garlic, finely chopped - 150 gr. smoked mahi-mahi or other smoked fish, finely chopped - freshly ground pepper to taste - 1 egg, beaten - 1 Tbl. lemon or lime juice - 1/4 tsp. red Tabasco sauce - 3 Tbl. chives or shallots, finely chopped - 2 Tbl. parsley, finely chopped - 1 tsp. ground smoked paprika

Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan and add one layer of cakes. Fry these on each side until both sides are golden brown. Drain on paper towels. You can add more oil if necessary to keep them from sticking. Note: You can serve with tarter sauce if you like but they are delicious as is.

Letters To Bali Advertiser Airport Mess Dear Editor I have taken flights twice this year 2012, I usually go to the airport by taxi. The problem is that when I have arrived back in Bali, due to the work been done on the airport we have to walk miles to get out to the car park, with a bunch of â&#x20AC;&#x153;airport taxiâ&#x20AC;? drivers already gunning for locals and guests arriving in Bali â&#x20AC;&#x153;TAXI, TAXIâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;Śand they DO NOT do metered fares. I live in Umalas and have been quoted from 150,000 to 100,000 by these drivers, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just below 50,000 by meter to Umalas, if you refuse they shrug you off and let you go knowing full well you will be obliged to grab a cab as the exit is very far away and no taxis on the outside. Then there are the unlicensed cars trying to get you to come with them at the same rates no less but will nego a bit. Dodgy guys. Last night I decided to walk out and see if I could get a cab outside. Luckily there was a taxi driver sneaking in to see if he could pick up a fare by pretending to have dropped off someone, he told us that at the moment they, (one of the usual taxi companies that were always at the airport), are not allowed to enter and so are losing their usual income. I think this is an outrage and should be investigated, how can this be possible with the amount of arrivals each hour and no taxi service to our guests. They are been robbed before they even have a chance to enjoy Bali. Thank you, Colleen Post, e-mail, fax or bring in your letters. Please address all to Letters To Bali Advertiser. Bali Advertiser will decide what to publish and will edit as needed.

“A GIFT OF EDUCATION LASTS A LIFETIME!”

SOLE MEN’S ‘ESCAPING POVERTY THROUGH EDUCATION’ Barometer, Rotary Club of Bali Seminyak’s SOLE MAN Robert Epstone used to generate the excitement, and a Rp. 100 million cheque handed to Bali Children’s Project’s Ni Wayan Sri Ekayanti (Eka), with Theresa Graham, Sole Man Beat, Sole Man Robert, Mr Agung Adi, member of Board of Commerce KADIN Badung, Mangku Made Ariawan (President of Yayasan Solemen Indonesia). Sponsorship was collected during a recent visit to Rotary Club of Shanghai, from business friends in Los Angeles and Rotarians in Bali. Long term BCP sponsors, as well as children in Florida collecting one dollar per day over the year, covered 36 children’s High School education. But what was still needed, in addition to normal school costs, was the USD 300 ‘one-time’ admission fee to enable each of these Balinese children to enter High School this July! In the words of Rotary International President Kalyan Banerjee “Philanthropy truly begins with each individual.” The SOLE MEN thank each of our Sponsors for finding it within yourself to serve others with your support to make this happen. It is one step toward a better world.

Say What? Question: My father died from esophageal cancer about 10 years ago when I was in my twenties. He suffered for two years from surgery and chemo, and my mother attempted suicide. She was in a coma after his death and then pulled through. It was a rough period to think that I was going to lose both my parents in a matter of months. I’m the only child. I was so angry with my mother I could hardly speak to her like a rational human being. She had difficulty finding direction in her life without my father. First, she wanted to be a nun and went to convents all over the world. I tried to support her even though I wasn’t too excited about the idea. Her plans changed dramatically, however, when she started dating men again. Within a year after my father’s death, she married a man who was unemployed and alcoholic at the time. I tried everything I could to reason with her, but she was determined to marry him despite all the obvious reasons not to. The road was rocky until he finally got clean of alcohol and landed a paying job. It has taken a long time, but I have finally accepted this man as my dad because I can see how hard he has worked to do good things for my mother. Now, after a number of years of marriage, my mother has informed me that she is no longer happy. She has been emailing an old boyfriend from her teenage years and says she wants to meet him again. I don’t know what to do at this point. Basically, I’m just praying for her. When I try to give her advice, she has tantrums. I beg her to get therapy, but she refuses. I love my mother dearly, and I am afraid for her future. She says she is going to do what she wants to do. Please give me some reasonable advice. Dr. ZZ: Your mother appears to have survived the first disaster you warned her about. Had she written to me, I would probably have warned her too. But she didn’t ask for help, and she’s not asking for help now. Prepare for round two because she is likely to continue doing exactly as she pleases, and she seems to know what she’s doing – at least for her. In your missive, you don’t mention whether she has ever asked for you to be involved in her decisions. If not, the best you can do is to be available to her if she ever needs you. What she chooses to do with her life – especially if it’s not hurting her or harming anyone else -- is none of your business. Support her personal decisions, and keep praying that she will have happiness. That’s all that’s in your ballpark. That’s all you can do.

Question: I am a married woman in my early 40’s who generally passes for 30. My husband and I don’t have kids. During the course of a recent conversation I had with a male coworker about his newborn baby, the man told me that his wife is trying to lose weight. The two of them are in their 30’s. I told him how I watch what I eat, and how I run several kilometers most days of the week. People often ask me for diet and exercise advice. Anyway, this coworker told me that breastfeeding was supposed to burn a lot of calories, and I said I didn’t know if it compared to running. He then proceeded to tell me that breastfeeding seemed to really tire out his wife, and that he knew it was hard on her physically because the baby has to suck really hard to get the milk out. “I know,” he said. “I tried it myself. I’m the parent, and I have to check these things out.” Yeesh! I am not making this up. I am now stuck with more information than I really didn’t want to know and with a disturbing mental image of my coworker attempting to breastfeed. I felt kind of nauseous and lost my train of thought for the rest of the day at work. Is this man’s behavior normal, and should he have told me about it? Dr. ZZ: After people have their first baby, they often find every little detail of the birth and the first few weeks of their newborn to be fascinating. It is not unusual for them to lose track of what other people think is gross or weird and have conversations that they never before would have dreamed possible. Normal or not, considering how this man’s choice of topic affected you, his conversation was obviously inappropriate in your presence. This is not generally the kind of information a man shares with a female coworker. It’s just way too personal. Perhaps he was trying to get a rise out of you, or perhaps he was horny and was subconsciously hoping you’d be horny too after he told you the story.

People do the oddest things in the privacy of their bedrooms. Most, however, have the common sense and courtesy not to share the details with their coworkers. We are all nevertheless guilty at times of losing track of what others find interesting. Some might argue that the tendency to discuss one’s own healthful lifestyle, running prowess, or youthful appearance is just as unnecessary when it has nothing to do with the matter at hand. This man’s disclosure doesn’t have to be a big deal unless you make it one. Go dancing or watch a good movie, and get your mind off the repetitive image you are otherwise dwelling on.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

What is Wayang Wong? Part II According to Prof. R.M Moerdowo’s book, Reflections on Balinese Traditional and Modern Arts, wayang wong as we know it today was once referred to as Barong Blasan or Barong Kedingkling. Between 1775 and 1825, the King of Klungkung, I Dewa Agung Sakti “ordered the establishment of a dance group consisting of thirty-six people, half of which were to play the role of the simian army of Rama, and the other half was to act the role of Rawana’s army of giants...this barong became very popular, not only in the puris but also in the villages...” Dutch occupation meant that the palaces lost their power and many court art-forms, including wayang wong, were left to the villages carry on. In a few villages it was sanctified and subsequently well preserved, presented at temple ceremonies in the outer courtyard as an offering to the gods. However due to the sheer size of the troupe, there are still a number of villages that have dormant traditions. A wayang wong performance is completely different from the tourist Ramayana performances which you can see in most hotels in Bali, as it is not copied directly from the Javanese Ramayana tourist performance you find in Prambanan and other parts of Java. The dance movements, adopted from Gambuh and wayang kulit, are also highly stylised with the characters introduced slowly with much reverence by their servants. In the Ramayana version, the characters all wear masks, thus their utterances are not clear. The Balinese have dealt with this performance issue by added a narrator, called a ‘juru tandak’ who not only speaks for the characters, but also narrates the story in a typical Balinese singing style. What is particularly attractive about the Ramayana version of wayang wong is the brightly coloured, delicately carved masks that transform the human dancers into other worldly beings. Add to this the musical dimension of the lighter sounding gender wayang and bebatelan gamelan accompaniment, the tourist version that employs a regular, noisier gong kebyar gamelan orchestra pales in comparison, with less dramatic spirit and atmosphere.

ROLE and the Dichotomy of Nusa Dua – Two Islands, Two Worlds If the map of Bali looks like a chicken laying an egg, (which it does) then Bukit Badung, often referred to simply as “the Bukit,” is the chicken’s feet; a limestone, largely waterless peninsula south of the airport with mangroves in the north, some of the best surfing on the planet to the west and Indonesia’s flagship real estate to the east. Even if you have never set foot on the Bukit, you will certainly have seen bits of it in the form of irregular white quarried boulders loaded on the back of convoys of yellow trucks heading for housing estates, villa projects and road works throughout Bali and beyond.

Indonesia’s Showpiece The focus of the majority of visitors to the Bukit is Nusa Dua, recently chosen by the Indonesian government as the showpiece location for a series of headline international meetings attended by the presidents of all the ASEAN nations, as well as other states with significant interests in the region, the USA, China, Japan and Russia. For a few days the peninsula was virtually under martial law: teams of cops manned every junction, sports pitches became helicopter landing fields and small shopping malls became temporary garrisons for elite military units flown in from Java. Off the coast, armed patrol boats manned by guys in helmets and camo mingled with the life-jacket-clad tourists bouncing through the waves on their inflatable bananas. An aircraft carrier appeared off shore, dwarfing the white castles of the cruise ships. Of course, in common with the majority of visitors to the Bukit, the dignitaries will only have seen the actual village of Nusa Dua through dark-tinted windows in brief cameos of concrete, tin roofs, cigarette adverts and open mouths as their motorcades swept through it. Their destination was the complex of luxury hotels that shares the village’s name but none of its complications. The world beyond the tall walls and the security airlocks is one of lawns tonsured and watered daily, of sandy beaches raked clean every morning, of trafficfree thoroughfares and uncrowded boutiques. Here there are no touts or beggars, no plastic bags bowling down the streets like multicoloured tumbleweed, no-one who doesn’t smile and say hello as you pass by, nobody who doesn’t “belong.” Bali’s increasing tourist numbers have encouraged a dramatic expansion of the world behind the walls, this “Forbidden City.” Vast new hotels are being constructed along the beaches to the south of the current complex; huge tracts of coastline have been laid bare and cranes, towering far, far above the tallest palm tree watch over the hordes of workers building paradise below. Two Islands Prosperity has come to Bukit Badung. However, Nusa Dua means “two islands” in Bahasa Indonesia and the name is tragically appropriate. While the Bukit is the prestige address of some of the highest of high-end resorts, it is also home to some of the lowest paid and most over-looked of Bali’s residents. The dry climate, allied to fruitless soils above the limestone rock bed means that life here has always been difficult, but now, squeezed out of the boom and squeezed in between the ever expanding walls of the resorts; excluded from areas of beach and hillside land that were hitherto theirs to work, the people of the peninsula are in danger of becoming Bali’s forgotten folk. Development has deprived them of the opportunity to continue

traditional livelihoods as fishermen, seaweed harvesters and subsistence farmers and many do not own the skills, even at a basic level, to benefit from the employment opportunities offered by the transformation of their homeland. Most of the construction workers on the projects are imported from elsewhere in Indonesia, creating social issues, over-crowding and frequent conflict. An Unlikely Hero However, the people of the Bukit have an unlikely knight carrying their banner aloft and fighting to give them a chance to escape from the economic and environmental traps in which they have been caught. In 2007 Australian surfer and jewellery entrepreneur Mike O’Leary sold his businesses in Bali and established a foundation he called ROLE (Rivers, Oceans, Lands, Ecology.) As the organisation’s name suggests, the original aim was to combat the detrimental consequences of urban development and ROLE is heavily involved in such issues. However, Mike also recognised the adverse impact that environmental changes were having on the local people and decided to do something about it, focussing especially on those who were right at the bottom of the privilege pile, the socially disadvantaged and unskilled women of the area. The problems the women have are not all new and borne out of progress. They also lie partly in societal attitudes. Many of the girls born to the poorest families on the Bukit have no schooling at all. As Mike elaborates, “in poor families, girls face a gender bias with only 2 girls for every 8 boys going to primary school. Over 200,000 women in Bali are illiterate and salaries for unskilled women are often far below the official minimum wage.” ROLE takes the view that education is the key to escaping from poverty and riding the wave of Bali’s tourist-driven economy. Often, the first priority for the disadvantaged women who pass through its doors is to acquire at least a minimal degree of literacy in Bahasa Indonesia and numeracy as well as basic life skills such as grooming, manners, respect, motivation, self-esteem and basic employment skills like customer service, work ethics and honesty.

them, showing rows of neat work. ROLE is the only school they have. You do not have to look far to see where these girls have come from. Mike directed our attention to the other side of the wall and an area of waste ground charred by fires and strewn with trash. Beyond we saw a number of lean-to tin shacks where groups of girls, not much older than the two math students, were sitting in the shade watching barebottomed babies playing in the dirt.

Mike invited us to stay and observe a typical day. It was an eye-opening experience. The over-riding impression was that for many of the students, ROLE’s primary function is to provide them with a safe haven. They come and go as they please. It is a place where they have status and where they are treated with respect. It is also a place where they can get together, learn to read and write and acquire a trade. Role Model We watched a sales executive from Surfer Girl conducting retail training for eight students in a shop environment created specifically for the purpose next to the café. It occurred to us that not only was this smartly dressed, confident young lady imparting her knowledge and experience to the girls seated in front of her. You could tell by the look in their eyes that she was also serving as a role model; an independent, educated woman whom, thanks to ROLE, they could hope some day to emulate.

Once they have achieved functional performance levels, the next step is to empower them with vocational training to enable them eventually to find a place within the island’s workforce or even to start their own small business. With the support of a number of local companies, ROLE then organizes on-the-job training and, ultimately, full time jobs for successful graduates. For example, at the ROLE Eco Learning Park, there is a purpose built facility where members of staff from Bali Bisa Spa train students who have expressed interest and shown aptitude in massage therapy. For others, Bumbu Bali offers vocational cookery and waiting courses in its restaurant in Tanjong Benoa. New Facilities New ROLE facilities in Jalan Siligita, Nusa Dua, established in early 2011, offer two classrooms and a café that allows students to acquire inhouse the sort of hospitality and catering training that will enable them one day to find work in one of Bali’s plethora of culinary establishments. The facilities’ location “in town” also enables ROLE to run night classes for women who have unskilled and underpaid jobs during the daytime so that they can study and improve their prospects.

Far-reaching Effects The benefits of the kind of training that ROLE provides go far beyond simply empowering the students themselves. On a social level, imbuing the disadvantaged women of the Bukit with greater education and social consciousness will lead to improved family planning, reduced infant mortality, higher living standards, enhanced environmental awareness, better community health and sanitation. Perhaps, best of all, statistics show that the children of skilled women are likely to grow up better educated and skilled themselves. More about ROLE To find out more about ROLE, take a look at www. rolefoundation.org or call in for a coffee at the Jalan Siligita café mentioned above. It’s easy to find, not only thanks to the large signboards but also because of a visually arresting “trompe l’oeil” sculpture in the car park showing a fishing boat crashing through the wall!

Locavore Heroes, Bali Style

This article brings together two of my favourite subjects, food and sustainability. You’d think here would be a synergy between all the new restaurants opening in Bali and the many farmers scratching a living right next door, but building mutually beneficial relationships between chefs and producers is not easy. For years I’ve been writing about seeking out Indonesian food products instead of bringing them in from Europe and Australia. But now the subject is hot. TIME magazine’s March 26 issue featured Danish chef Rene Redzepi and his philosophy of serving only Nordic cuisine using locally sourced foods. His restaurant Noma was named the world’s top eatery by Restaurants magazine in 2010, and his tables are booked three months in advance. Patrons dine on cured bear meat, flower salads and foraged wild plants, and the international restaurant scene has begun to take a more serious look at what’s growing outside the kitchen door. So the term ‘locavore’ was created to describe people who choose to include as much locally produced food as possible in their diets.

produce. Eelke didn’t know where to source it. It took a lot of time, which chefs don’t have, to research. For the past two years he has been executive chef at Plantation Alila Ubud, and has become a committed locavore. He and Ray Adriansyah, his Sumatran-born, New Zealand trained sous chef, have challenged themselves to use local (which they interpret as Indonesian) ingredients to create both Balinese and western food.

Responsible tourism takes two partners – sustainably managed hotels and restaurants, and travelers that select them on that basis “On Bali, almost everything on most of the tasting menus is imported,” he points out. “But I like to think that the people who come here, the Europeans and Australians, don’t come to Bali specially to eat imported steaks and truffles. They can get pizzas and hamburgers at home. A thoughtful traveler will be more adventurous.” The philosophy of Plantation was inspired by the abundance of Bali’s rice terraces, farms and seas. Featuring authentic seasonal local and western cuisine, Plantation is becoming a destination restaurant for discriminating diners in Bali. Both its Authentic five course Balinese tasting menu, and five to seven course Seasonal western tasting menu are 100% local. In Holland where Eelke trained, the better restaurants bring in whole, freshly killed animals and cut them into usable pieces. Eelke’s experience includes preparing rabbit, poultry, lamb, pigs and game dishes from the whole animal. “It is so much more interesting than buying a vacuum-packed tenderloin and there is so much more potential to create new dishes,” he enthuses.

Slow Food Ubud (soon to be renamed Slow Food Bali) was established 3 years ago to celebrate and promote locally, sustainably produced foods. Yes, this means fewer trips to the deli and seeking out local substitutes for recipe ingredients. But it’s not just about the massive carbon footprint attached to flying in everything from exotic cheese to stuffed olives. Slow Food is about supporting and educating local farmers and producers to provide high quality, sustainably produced and competitively priced foods that will inspire Bali’s chefs to use them. And in doing so, enhance the local economy and return some of Bali’s abundance to its farmers. Responsible tourism takes two partners – sustainably managed hotels and restaurants, and travelers that select them on that basis. Travelers are slowly becoming more aware of the impacts of their activities, and choosing hotels on the basis of their environmental programs. In 2008 I wrote a couple of stories about ethical tourism that featured Alila Ubud hotel as an example of best practices. While researching this story I revisited Alila Ubud to see if it was still walking the green talk, and what was cooking in its kitchens. I’m happy to report that Alila Ubud is still an excellent example of environmental best practices for the hospitality industry. And behind the kitchen’s swing door is a chef dedicated to bringing together his classical training and experience with locally sourced ingredients. Chef Eelke Plasmeijer’s transition to locavorism began in Jakarta five years ago. The restaurant he worked in imported everything it served. “I was used to working with turbot, foie gras and all the usual European ingredients, and never thought much about it. Vegetable suppliers came twice a week, and everything was from Australia; there was no local produce that I knew of. Then one day a big, fresh barramundi was delivered and I got very excited. It sounds odd, but for the first time it really struck me that we were probably surrounded with fresh food. “I realized that what we were doing was crazy. Why import everything? It doesn’t make sense to bring food in frozen, it can’t be as good as fresh food at the source. Also the carbon footprint is huge.” But it was -- and is -- difficult to find local

A recent initiative involved butchering two local pigs which had been raised on chemical-free food. (Vegetarians may wish to skip this paragraph). Each time, a hundred kilograms of very recently deceased pig was turned into hams, bacon (cured in palm sugar and sea salt), salami, chorizo and blood sausage, roasts, chops, pate and head cheese. Eelke found that the black Bali pig was more flavourful but was too lean to make bacon or sausages. The white hybrid pigs are ideal for the restaurant. In many villages these pigs are fed rice bran, greens from the field and banana trunks instead of growth-hormone laced commercial feed. Hams from these pigs are now being cured for Plantation’s Christmas menu.

Then there are the farmer’s frustrations. Climate change has brought much more rain to Bali than usual, and vegetables need lots of sun. Some farmers invest in plastic sheeting to keep the rain off the plants, but the high winds of January destroyed most of these makeshift greenhouses. The combination of heavy rain and wind ruined many crops (you might have noticed that there’s not a lot of salad around these days) including the rice crop in some areas. Most farmers live hand to mouth, and replacing plastic sheeting might mean a bank loan at crippling interest rates. If a farmer does manage to grow some chemical-free rucola, he has to belong to a cooperative that will help him distribute it that same day. If he happens to have a relationship with a restaurant chef and delivers his rucola directly to the kitchen door, he’ll have to wait months to be paid. That doesn’t work for Bali’s farmers, who are very small producers and need drip-feed income on a daily basis. Running a restaurant is a business like any other, so price is an important issue. The huge demand for imported foods in Bali keeps the prices competitive, and sometimes it is actually cheaper to buy imported items than local. So the concept of Bali’s restaurants using more local produce is a challenging one. As a chef who’s walking the talk, Eelke sometimes finds it discouraging. “Chefs would need to work closely with farmers on a production schedule and there would have to be a firm commitment on both sides. That takes a lot of time. Chefs move on every two years or so, which makes continuity another issue.” The philosophy of the Slow Food movement is to bring together good, clean, fairly produced food with people who are aware of and engaged with what they are putting on their plates. “Slow Food Bali recognizes that agriculture needs to be refocused by bringing ‘community’ back into our food sourcing process,” says Slow Food Bali convivium leader Mary Jane Edleson. “As a young organization on one of the world’s most fertile islands, we seek to narrow the current widening gap between chefs, consumers and food producers by developing events and programs that encourage more direct and meaningful relationships -- economically, socially and spiritually.” For more information, email slowfoodubud@gmail.com To join Slow Food Bali, drop by its table at the Earth Day celebration at Green School on April 20 or visit www.slowfood. com <http://www.slowfood.com/>

Eelke relies on his staff to help source the ingredients he needs. He’d like to do more of the field work himself, but he doesn’t have the time to visit Bedugul every week or so as he would like to explore what’s in season. I asked how chefs in Bali could work more closely with producers to enhance local content and encourage chemical-free production of vegetables and meat animals.

“I realized that what we were doing was crazy. Why import everything? “We have to change the mindset of the chefs,” Eelke told me. “And that will only happen if the chef is interested; many are content with the way things are. Most chefs are not known for environmental awareness -- we are cooks, that is our focus. I hope chefs will be influenced by this new wave, but it is a conservative profession that’s not really known for innovation. “So it’s about education, mindset and the willingness to do it, and also the time it takes to source things. Every email I get from suppliers is about imported stuff, which makes it so easy for the chefs. But it’s not easy to source locally, there’s a lot of frustration involved. When I find a beautiful product sample I get excited, but then a month later it’s not available any more.”
