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

A New Approach to Indonesian Cooking by Heinz von Holzen Heinz von Holzen, the doyen of Indonesian cooking, has outdone even himself this time. And like the workmanship typical of his country of origin, Indonesian Cooking has all the intricacy, assiduous research and rigorous attention to function and detail as a Swiss watch. Of the 10 books this author-chef has published, this work is the most “scienti¿c.” As the tireless guardian and promoter of Indonesian culinary traditions, the unwavering emphasis in this book is on traditional and authentic Indonesian cuisine. Von Holzen is a veritable taskmaster when it comes to ensuring quality, Àavor and authenticity in his recipes, stressing repeatedly how absolutely essential it is to follow the given weights and measurements as accurately as possible. What’s new and different about this cookbook is that the recipes have been prepared using the latest cooking techniques and equipment. The author waxes rhapsodic in his praise of the pressure cooker, reminiscing how he vividly recalls its whistling in his mother’s kitchen when he was growing up in Switzerland. He devotes two pages explaining how this invaluable tool reduces cooking times, retains Àavors and is particularly well-suited for making soups and chicken, duck and beef stocks. Von Holzen uses 20 pressure cookers in his Bumbu Bali Restaurant and Cooking School (www. balifoods.com) in Tanjung Benoa in Bali, the winner of multiple awards. Small shaded boxes on related topics throughout the book make diverting reading: a mini-history of spices; how to use umami, a natural msg; all about Palembang’s famous pindang soup, Maluku’s betelnut-chewing cooks and the versatile street snack martabak,; the culinary background of opor ayam; how sourness is achieved by the use of tamarind and limes and bitterness by the use of ginger, galangal and turmeric; discourses on the star fruit and the different types of rice; etc. A professional photographer, von Holzen has enhanced the book with full color landscape photographs of subjects appropriate to the chapter being introduced: a market scene shot from above, a water park with gnarled trees, a volcano over serene lakes and a row of line and rod ¿shermen preceding the “Fish & Seafood” chapter. It’s the traveler in me that yearns to know the location of these intriguing but unidenti¿ed scenes. Indonesian Cooking consumed a substantial amount of human and ¿nancial resources to produce. During what he calls his “culinary journey,” von Holzen started collecting recipes from all over the archipelago in 1975. For this endeavor he visited the remote Spice Islands to investigate the private kitchen of the Sultan of Ternate; Padang in West Sumatra to study the renowned beef rendang; Makassar to explore the distinctive dishes of Sulawesi; Flores and other less traveled regions of Nusatenggara to learn how to prepare pork satay and steamed cassava cake. In all there are more than 100 recipes, many rarely found in English-language cookbooks: richly indulgent meat stews, savory fried rice, all kinds of satay, chicken braised in coconut milk, tantalizingly sweet desserts and other classic favorites from various far-Àung regions. I found the soups and the seafood recipes to be the most intriguing. Even the names for these dishes conjure up the exotic: Green Papaya & Corn Soup, Beef Rib Soup, Prawn & Egg Ragout, Smoked fish Steamed in Banana Leaves, Fish Soup with Sour Mangoes, Spiced Tuna Braised with Coconut Milk and Steamed Mussels with Rice Cake. Detailed practical advice, such as how to make wet and dry spice blends, is clearly illustrated with all the steps involved. It’s a credit to the author’s conscientious approach to cooking, his insistence on perfection and his sympathy with Westerners that he devotes two pages on how to

prepare steamed and yellow rice. There are even precise instructions (with complementary recipes) on how to make tempeh from scratch, including the starter!

C/NS/U-11 June 14

As a well established chef who has spent so many years in the trade, von Holzen passes on numerous hard-earned tips: a mortar and pestle should be made of rough volcanic rock; when using a food processor, ingredients must be chopped ¿rst with a little oil and water added; different colored chopping boards should be used for ¿sh, meat, fruit and vegetables to prevent cross contamination; high-quality steel and copper pans distribute heat more evenly and prevent hot spots; glass covers enable the cooking processes to be monitored; the best woks should be of heavy steel and measure 30-35 cm wide; pre-made vacuum-packed food keeps longer in the fridge; digital thermometers and scales take the guesswork out of cooking, yielding better results. One section concerns itself with the wonderful condiments used Indonesian cooking; arguing that because of its wealth of herbs and spices, the cuisine can perform very well on the international market. Von Holzen dispels the misconception that Indonesian food is spicy hot. In fact, it is not the dish itself that is hot but the condiments that are served separately with every meal that make Indonesian food spicy. I learned the astonishing fact that Indian traders introduced indigenous Indonesian spices to Indonesia. Although an extensive 3-page contents lists every recipe, the inclusion of an index would’ve made it easier to learn which specific dishes come from Sumatra or Maluku or Nusatenggara. For those readers unfamiliar with Indonesian geography, it also would’ve been helpful to include a thematic map showing the islands and regions where dishes originate from. A bi-lingual glossary would’ve been useful in quickly ¿nding the English meaning of an Indonesian word such as the gingery root galangal (laos in Javanese, lengkuas in Indonesian). Using the techniques, instructions for preparation, precise measurements and high-end kitchen tools, just about anyone with a desire to do so can easily reproduce these recipes on a daily basis with equipment and materials already found in your kitchen at home. These methods are not only valid for Indonesian food, but are also applicable for any other international cuisine. The book is a cook’s cookbook, i.e. especially useful for commercial/institutional operations that need to prepare large quantities of food in advance.

In this professionally produced publication, the author has compiled recipes gathered during his 40 years of extensive research and travels in Indonesia. The tastes are 100% Indonesian but the system for preparing the recipes is different. Von Holzen convincingly makes the argument that cooking is an exact science and that contemporary technology and methods have just as much of a place in Indonesian cuisine as they do in modern Western cuisine.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE MARCH 18 - APRIL 01 , 2015

The Sun and Moon join in the last degree of Pisces and create a total solar eclipse on the New Moon, as we head into this fortnight. Uranus and Pluto are in their peak square formation and as dawn breaks on the 21st we reach the autumn equinox in Bali when the Sun enters Aries. Another big fortnight as we sit between two eclipses. The Full Moon eclipse in the sign of Libra is on April 4th and creates a T-Square to the Uranus/Pluto square. As the planets move out of Pisces into Aries there will be a distinct shift in the energy and a noticeable change in the pace of life and events will continue to be unpredictable with sudden changes and upheavals possible and extremely likely. These last and first degrees of a sign portend a rather auspicious time, so pay particular attention to this New Moon that coincides with the Equinox. Mars the ruler of Aries continues in its own sign until the very end of this month giving extra spice with fiery passions erupting. Venus also is in her own sign of Taurus and the feminine is strong, grounded and practical. Saturn who is newly retrograde trines the Sun mid-fortnight bringing a little self-discipline to the over enthusiastic tendencies. It may be necessary to do a reality check on your life just to make sure all is in alignment with your higher purpose. It can be ever so easy to become derailed during this crazy time of transformation and change. NEW MOON 29 Pisces 27 March 20, 2015 5:37 p.m. (Solar Eclipse)

If you are living true to your nature this magnificent time will be highlighting the areas of your life that require radical transformation. With the Sun now gracing your area of the zodiac you will be feeling independently strong and resilient even with the challenges that are sure to be knocking on your door. Your career issues are demanding attention and to be brought into alignment with a rather new self-expression. You may be ready to step forward with the new model or business project now. Quiet time with solitude is still necessary even during these hectic interludes and relationships will be demanding their proper attention by the end of the fortnight.

You may be encouraged to have a look at your health during this next month and to add a little physical exercise that brings you into present awareness. Partnerships may prove to be a little confrontational or the newness of them may kick start exciting new projects. However it pans out there will be a lot of action and forward momentum to pull you towards a new foundational beginning. You will of course need to let go of some of the older models of functioning or the places that you previously required a more conservative structure. As you express yourself in new ways your communication opens channels for others to do the same.

The really good news for you is that Venus is in your sign smoothing out the ruffled feathers this fortnight and giving you the support you need during this crazy period of time. When things don’t appear to be making much sense it’s possibly a good idea to take an elevated perspective and allow the dust to settle a little before making those really big decisions. There is understanding coming through your friendships or group activities that you may be involved in. This could be the beginning stages of a community project that will lead to commitment by the Full Moon. New partnerships will be formed by then also.

This could be a great time for romantic partnering and to get physical with an already existing partner. Any children in your life take priority this month and your work also benefits from these powerful transformative forces. Communication is paramount as you express your passion and there is the need for change as you accommodate their insistent urges. Anything that lays hidden from those closest to you is going to be exposed to the light of truth and you may want to take a look at your long held beliefs particularly around religious or educational themes. There is so much potential for you to harness during this next fortnight and into April.

You will be focused on your career orientation this month and just as importantly your community of friends. Saturn is in your opposite sign and brings the possibility of commitment within your primary relationships. You may even contemplate marriage over the next couple of years. This transformation period runs particularly deep for you and encompasses significant endings and death in different forms, perhaps even literally within your circle of friends or community. All of this is modifying your approach to life and the personality through which you co-create with others. It could be the perfect time to start anything where your softer more intuitive side is utilized.

The eclipse window could bring some changes to your home and also as you enter into creative projects your valuable beliefs may get dislodged. There is of course so much to be acknowledged when it comes to tradition and yet there is also the excitement of discovering through direct experience for yourself and this is very possible for you now. You have the potential to expand beyond your old boundaries of existence and enter into an entirely different way of living. If you can muster the enthusiasm beyond the restrictions that you are feeling in life, spontaneous and exciting events will start occurring for you. Life beckons a new adventure.

You are another who is triggered to a great extent by the heavy duty transits we are currently experiencing. The underlying tension could be playing havoc with your emotional nature and remember also we are in eclipse season and this affects you directly as well. Take care of your health and by being honest with those in your work place you will make the necessary changes to your career relationships. By letting go of some of the old partnerships you may simply open the door to new opportunities that are risky, exciting or very challenging. This could be a month of travel for some or reconnecting to distant family members.

This fortnight you may be feeling more emotionally connected to others through communication. Some of it is deeply sentimental and yet there is rising passion and a need to express the other spectrum of emotions. You may be feeling a little more confrontational and this could come as a surprise to those who know you as determined and not necessarily pushy or forthright. As you experience new places within yourself and discover ways to express them, you will be noticeably different from the person you were before. The deep time of cocoon living is also done and you are about to be born anew through this metamorphosis.

There will be some deep introspective moments this month and you may feel the need to expand your own personal universe a little or a lot. This is the time to get a fresh perspective and to really look at how you can transform your everyday life perhaps through the work that you do. There will be a strong pull towards travel for many of you. Meanwhile your self-expression may be a little restricted as you dismantle the usual structure of your life and move towards the fulfillment of your dreams. There is a momentary transition and dislodgment as things reorganize themselves to accommodate your vision. Be gentle on yourself.

Emotionally based action could overcome you as we start into this fortnight and you may have the need for constant movement. There is so much going on internally that the external movement may bring some solace to the restless mind that is busy trying to integrate all the current energies and patterns of change. You have a responsibility to find what is true for yourself as opposed to taking the word of others, although there will be a lot of growth that comes through the verbal exchange that takes place now. Be open to new ideas and ways of thinking and the differing perspectives offered to you. Take time to nurture.

This is a period of time where you will be focused on the other people in your life. The significant ones with whom you have deep connection or mutual understanding. As your ideas around intimacy and sharing are altered and you depart from the ways of the past you will begin to express yourself in a new and more confident way. It will become obvious to you over this next fortnight how the new values and ideas are settling into a practical application. Your love attractions are also opening to a broader understanding of the feminine and her power. The more you surrender to your intuition the easier things become.

As the Pisces month winds down use the last of this familiar energy to propel you into this eclipse portal and make those further personal adjustments that are now necessary. You are rapidly moving through new territory and releasing much of your old life. Your willingness to adapt, change and grow is allowing you to feel at home in different environments. Your career is about to take a leap forward in surprising directions and you can allow yourself a little time to integrate and nourish yourself and support the mind through this evolutionary learning curve. There is more yet to come and still it is possible to ground yourself even in the business.

Babi and Beers....Yeah Baby! Looking for a late afternoon lounge that’s a little more left of centre? Canggu’s newest arrival, The Door is Bali’s first suckling pig, craft beer & rock ‘n’ roll house! An interesting concept, The Door is a passion project of a few Canggu locals and presents a really chilled, homely atmosphere, somewhat akin to walking into your friend’s backyard for a beer and a barbie. Forget the shiny minimalist lines of slick city bars, think bohemian and shabby chic with a very smooth groove. Don’t just assume it is the run of the mill roast piggy either. As well as the traditional Balinese style babi guling, cleverly labelled on the menu as ‘Big Boi Babi’ with all the trimmings and of course a side of nasi, The Door serves this divine local delicacy in several succulent styles. The “Sicilian Sucker” is an Italian favorite boasting juicy pork, creamy polenta, a 24 hour homemade napoli sauce and smoked garlic. Delizioso! Or go loco with Perico Power. Mexican inspired flavours, complete with salsa, guacamole, flour tortillas and hellishly hot sauce! Maybe not the best of venues for vegetarian date night, however I am sure owner Mojo and his hip and happy

staff could whip something up for you should you not wish to pile your plate with pork. For a slightly lighter suggestion, what about some porky bar snacks or Suckling Soto? Yep! you guessed it. A hearty bone broth with pork meatballs, vermicelli and a whole bunch of taste, spice and crunch. The most unique aspect of The Door is their rather refreshing approach to beverages. DIY cocktails with wholesale price bottle service. Throw in a bucket of ice, a cocktail maker and a variety of delish homemade mocktail mixers and you be the bartender. Make out you are the mixologist with the mostest and shake it baby! Not usually a beer fan, I have to say their hand crafted beers piqued my curiosity and altered my attitude to ale.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth LOOKING FOR A RISK-FREE 10% PER ANNUM INVESTMENT RETURN? Then read no further - because it doesn’t exist!

In fact no investment is completely risk-free. Even failure to invest has its own risks. Every now and again a prospective investor will tell me that he or she is looking for an annual return of between 5% and 10% but it must be risk-free. I have to explain that achieving such a return is possible but it will never be risk-free. This being the case, where on earth can you put your money without it being at risk? There are certainly places where the risk of losing it is very low, but so is the return. So how can you make your money grow? Before addressing that question let’s have a look at the risks that affect differing levels of annual return, starting with zero. 0% return – keep your money under the mattress RISKS: - The money will lose purchasing value over time - It could be stolen or destroyed in a fire 0% - 1% - bank savings account in USD, EUR or GBP - The money will lose purchasing value over time - If the amount exceeds government protection guarantees it could be lost in the unlikely event the bank goes under 1% - 2% - bank time deposits in USD, EUR or GBP - Unlikely to preserve purchasing power over time - Same risk of loss as with a savings account - Lack of access to the money when you may urgently need it 2% - 3% - USD, EUR or GBP government bonds - Possibility of a fall in capital value if sold before maturity date - Risk that inflation will exceed the return over the life of the bond 4% - 8% - Corporate bonds - Possibility of loss of capital value if the fixed interest rate is later deemed unattractive - Possibility of total loss if the company that issued the bond goes out of business (if invested in a single company bond) 5% - 8% - Buy-to-let properties - Risk of loss of tenants resulting in no income - Possible degradation of the property - Potentially high maintenance costs (I recently heard of someone having to spend $34,000 to replace a leaking roof in Bali) - Illiquid asset; could take a long time to sell (Of course the risks can be compensated by the potential of significant capital gain over time, although this cannot always be taken for granted) 6% - 8% - Major stock markets – (This is an arbitrary range as there are many variables but it reflects the annualised growth of the US S&P 500 index over the past 10 years) - Risk of heavy falls in the short term; markets fell by up to 50% in the 2008 – 2009 global financial crisis - Can take a long time to recover losses in a prolonged bear market - If you invest in individual stocks there is the risk of total loss of capital if the company you have invested in goes out of business 7% - 8% - Indonesian government bonds - Possibility of a fall in value if sold before maturity date - Risk that inflation will exceed the return during the term of the bond - Possibility of default. Unlikely, but defaults have been known with emerging market debt - Currency risk: In the 12 months to 8 March 2015 the Rupiah fell by 12.5% against the US Dollar 8% - 12% - Alternative investments (Can include a wide range of assets such as hedge funds, student accommodation, care home funds, agricultural products, land banking, asset-backed lending etc) - Risk of fund suspension if there are too many redemption requests since assets are

often illiquid and cannot be sold quickly - Greater risk of mismanagement or fraud with alternative funds as they are generally less well regulated or supervised 10% plus – Land in Bali (capital gain as opposed to income unless the land is rented out) - Undoubtedly one of the best investments historically but no guarantee such growth will continue indefinitely - Political risk; not a big one at the moment but land and property have always been potential political issues - Ownership issues where foreigners are concerned; leasing offers more legal certainty - Possible challenges to the title or to access to the land 20% plus – Private Equity / Venture Capital (Can include investment in a research project or business venture, company start-up etc) - Very high returns possible if the venture is successful but possible total loss of capital if it fails So how can we safely make our money grow? The low-risk options are the best if you are of a nervous disposition, but your money will probably not keep pace with inflation and you are going to be left behind as others become more prosperous. On the other hand you would have the consolation of being better off than those who have lost money with their investments. A proven way to accumulate medium-risk assets (such as stocks) with lower risk exposure is via a long term savings or pension plan where you allocate only modest amounts monthly. This avoids the risk of poor market timing as your contributions will be buying shares or units when prices are both high and low, with the added advantage that you are buying more units when prices are low and fewer when they are high. You would also have the ability to move profits as they arise into lower risk funds so they are not lost when prices fall. One proviso with such plans however is that contributions must be maintained for the contracted duration of the plan, otherwise the benefits could be lost. If you have a large lump sum to vest, a savings plan alone would not be appropriate as you would be stuck with the bulk of your money in cash earning close to zero for many years. So investment decisions have to be made. The safest way to invest is diversification so you would be looking at a range of investments to include lower, medium and higher risk. The highest risk areas should be avoided unless you have ample disposable funds and are prepared to accept the possible loss of all or most of the money allocated to this category. Time and human nature are also factors that play an important part, certainly with stock markets. Investing for the short term is far more risky than taking a long term view. Unfortunately, human nature drives us towards an asset class when it is performing well as opposed to when it is performing badly. For example, people were rushing to buy gold as it got close to $2,000 an ounce three years ago but few are looking at it today at $1,200 an ounce. Following the 2008 crash people fled the stock markets; yet if anyone had taken the risk and invested at the bottom of the market they could have made a fortune; the S&P 500 gained 100% between March 2009 and July 2010.

Risk is unavoidable; what is important is to fully understand both the benefits and the risks that apply to each investment. If the risk is well spread the impact of a calamity affecting any one asset class is greatly reduced and it should ensure steady and modest gains over time. If I can use a casino analogy, spread your chips across the table; don’t put all your money on your one lucky number. It may not be your lucky day.

HECTOR’S Gone to the Dogs The resurgence of rabies in Bali is yet another of those avoidable things that the chaps in charge of the asylum could have avoided if they could have been bothered, or if they hadn’t blown the budget on lots of other things. Yet it’s in an emergency such as this – brought about by seven years of feeble official failure to address a dire public health risk in a consistent, planned, properly administered way – that leadership is required. Instead, in the time-honoured fashion, our leaders are being proper little dukes of Plaza-Toro about rabies. They’re leading from the back. Governor Pastika, who has no trouble ignoring the weight of popular opinion when it comes to things like filling in Benoa Bay because the environment is far less important than plutocrats making even more money, has called on people to kill stray dogs because, he says, that’s what the people tell him they’d like to do. No matter, then, that all the literature – and global experience – shows very plainly that suppressing rabies is achieved through vaccination programs that create herd immunity in the canine population (70 per cent is the benchmark figure) and humane reduction of numbers by sterilization. No matter that the scientific record shows indiscriminate killing of dogs helps to spread the disease, because dogs in the vaccinated screen population are eliminated. No matter that it is the government’s job to educate people about effective rabies control and eliminate it as a threat to the broad community. (That 70 percent screen again). Pogroms such as that recently visited upon the small band of dogs that customarily inhabited Kuta beach are certainly not unusual. The Kuta killing spree was noticed only because of where it took place and because it followed an Australian tourist child being bitten, though not by a rabid dog. It horrified tourists (some of whom were not effete, do-gooder westerners, by the way) and painted a picture of Bali that certainly does not conform to the requirements of Tumpek Kandang, a Hindu rite observed every 210 days (the latest was on Mar. 7) that is a symbolic offering for all animals living in the world. The non-symbolic pre-Tumpek Kandang offering to the dogs of Kuta beach consisted of bashings and then, in the dead of night, some other inhuman final solution. The issue will not go away, however much Bali’s administrators would like it to and in spite of the impenetrable thickets of incomplete (or completely erroneous) data that hide the facts. It recently got an airing in the Asia edition of The International New York Times, in a piece by its Jakarta-based correspondent Joe Cochrane. It might be true that Bali has run out of money for vaccine, as the Governor says. The immediate questions then should be: Why? And what are you doing to get more money for vaccine? These questions are unlikely to be asked by anyone who would be listened to; and, if they were, the truthful answers (if forthcoming, which would require a miracle) would be Don’t Know and Nothing. A man died of rabies in Bangli recently. Last year, according to official figures, either one or several people died of the disease elsewhere in Bali. Anecdotally, the real 2014 figure would seem to be rather higher.

Do It! Do It! Among the many voluntary organizations here doing great fundraising work to assist the social advance of the Balinese people is one that regularly does lunch. Its members are the Divas, which must be an acronym for some obscure phrasal noun relating to Ladies Who Dress Up. Because dress up they do and we’re glad that this is so. It is tedious to gaze forever at designer-torn denim, long or short (often very short) and with incautious little garments above that would surely flutter away in a half-decent breeze and which are of a size that would completely fail to shame a doily into thinking that it was the runt of the litter. But we digress. The Divas’ next do, at Slippery Stone in Jl. Batu Belig, Kerobokan, on Mar. 27, is an event at which, so chief Diva Christina Iskandar and the tickets tell us, we are promised that they will do it Greek style. If we can lasso a loose Diva – that is, ahem, for clarity and decorum, one not already spoken for in terms of a lunchtime handbag, if indeed they allow handbags – we might even go along ourselves. It would be worth spending Rp350K (in a good cause and in pursuit of fine comestibles) to see the show. From memory, doing it Greek style involves throwing lots of plates and breaking them. Staging such an affray might not please Slippery Stone. It’s an up-market establishment, but it possibly has a prudential budget for crockery. And anyway, now we think of it, plate-breaking seems to be a wedding ritual, like that other dangerous pursuit,

this one Italian, of pinning money to the bride while taking great care not to eyeball – or worse, inadvertently brush against – anything remotely adjacent to an erogenous zone. The March event, aside from collecting lots of money as per their standard practice, will reward the Divas with an appearance by songstress Eva Scolaro, from Perth, who also emcees and hosts and does photographic modelling. She’s no stranger to Bali and has also performed in Jakarta.

Junk It! It’s good to see that Bali’s provincial government will be working with the villages to manage and hopefully reduce the mountain of waste that threatens to overwhelm the island (and that’s not only in the tourist areas; plastic is a problem everywhere). Some might say they’re a bit late off the starting block, but never mind. There’s evidence of a spring in the step and that’s really pleasing. The principal message at the start of this program might usefully be: If you throw it away, it’s still your responsibility. That recognition is something best instilled in children, so that by the time they’re adults they will know instinctively that dumping evil-smelling waste containing material that won’t disappear for up to a quarter of a million years and will poison the planet in the meantime is a really stupid thing to do. The charity organization ROLE Foundation has a great Eco Kids Program, which kicked off for 2015 this month with an awareness visit to the Sanur Independent School and a hosted visit by 40 students from a private school in Bogor, West Java. ROLE asks a very good question. Will our children inherit a world of grey skies, brown oceans full of junk with no marine life left, and land with no trees or wildlife? It has a very good answer: Not if our Eco Kids Program has anything to do with it.

On Not Giving a Toss, Etc Elizabeth Pisani, whose lengthy time and travels in Indonesia produced both the readable travelogue Indonesia Etc and a book promoting safe sex that caused a frisson when it was released because it was called The Wisdom of Whores – a commodity, incidentally, that should never be ignored – has popped her cork again, this time in an Australian online magazine, The Starfish. In relation to Australia’s immediate interest in the apparent presidential policy of preferring to shoot convicted drug criminals now because later the law might change to prevent this obscenity, she said: “President Jokowi really doesn’t give a toss about Australia. He does care about restoring his badly-bruised image as a decisive leader in the eyes of the Indonesian electorate. And it turns out that killing foreign drug dealers is quite a good way of doing that, at least among the 97 per cent of Indonesians who live outside Bali and profit very little from their southern neighbour.” In the matter of bruising politics, British Indonesia-watcher and author Tim Hannigan (his book Raffles and the British Invasion of Java is a fine antidote to the obsequious tomes of some post-imperial hagiographers) presciently wrote in a piece for Asia House, the London think-tank, just before the presidential election in July 2014:

“Ultimately, Indonesia’s chronic tendency towards coalitions and political marriages of convenience, first manifested way back in 1955 and repeated the moment the country was allowed full electoral freedom in 1999, means that its democracy, in a strange way, guides itself – away from either destructive extremes or from meaningful progress, depending on your perspective and level of cynicism. This is why neither worst fears nor greatest hopes ever seem really to come to pass, and in the end it may not really make much difference who wins.”

Update Peppers Sentosa offer a Sunday BBQ Lunch every week. It is amazing value for all of the family [a special gated area under supervision keeps the small children content whilst the parents relax]. The menu is a la carte and for me is headed by a special dish of Tiger Prawns [5 of them] combined with a brunch special of scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, onion, bacon, tomato, English spinach and that all important extra; BBQ sauce! The price for this dish of only Rp. 90,000++ tells you all you need to know about the value on offer! To experience these prices at a 5 star resort is really amazing. Being a BBQ, by the landscaped swimming pool, there has to be a selection of fish [sea bream], chicken [breast, marinated in soy, ginger, coriander and black pepper] and steak [Australian strip loin – pictured] and there is. What about the sausages, I hear you say! No BBQ would be complete without them, particularly one with an Australian connection. They are here, available as a trio of chicken, beef and pork. For the vegetarians there are Veggie Kebabs [tomato, peppers, mushrooms and onion]. Those who want other than BBQ items are also well catered for; burgers [Black Angus no less], steak sandwiches, wraps, pancakes [blueberry, with maple syrup], classic New York Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Bagel, Pulled Pork Sliders and a vegetarian pizza. DJ music in the background and the Cheeky Monkeys for the kids, all in all a fun day, good food at very reasonable cost! As is usual with this progressive Mantra managed establishment all Gluten Free items are so marked.

Goddes Bakery is a patisserie and café on Jln. Danau Buyan, Sanur. This is on the Renon side of The ByPass, a street where there has been a steady stream of new places opening. In the very competitive market of cafes and bakeries this is a very impressive newcomer. A pleasant large air-conditioned interior is teamed with a rear garden courtyard [for the smokers]. Traditional Indonesian style pastries and breads are displayed in the usual way [eat in or take away]. They have many cakes, large and small, with the usual local requirement for chocolate and strawberry. But it is their a la carte menu that surprises, both in quality and price [even without the opening month special discount that runs till April 1]. Open for breakfast [from a sensible 7.00 a.m.] there are all the usual local and international offerings, Egg combinations, Benedict, Toasted Sandwiches, Waffles, etc. Snacks and lunch are well catered for with a selection of snacks, light and full meals, all served with a smile.

Bamboo Koening is in Lod Tunduh, just south of Ubud. It is amazing what you can discover in Bali when you go exploring! A large roadside sign, on the main road just before the main crossroads, suggests spa and restaurant [and a soon to be hotel as well] but all you see is a small private road. One kilometer into the bushland, down towards the river, and a massive bamboo structure comes into view, well actually two of them one at ground level and one more of a mezzanine, together they seat 350 and amazingly they are full for lunch, most days. Certainly many of the customers are domestic and come via bus but in these days of empty restaurants it is quite a discovery. Just as surprising is the menu. Whilst it is standard Indonesian and local style International fare the prices are not what I expected after perusing the very up-market spa menu [cheapest massage $40!]. The food menu is budget priced. Obviously from Jakarta as the word ‘Thai’ features prominently in the menu regardless of the dish, so a Thai Chicken Salad [in Thai cuisine there is no western style salad, just soms, very different] consists of chicken fillet, tomato, cucumber and some coriander and chilli dressing to provide the supposed ‘Thai’ component. Pure Indonesian is the Chicken Rica-Rica, BBQ Beef Rib, Bubur Ayam Betutu and a vegetarian special of Kare Rebung; bamboo shoots, lemongrass, lime leaves, vegetables, coconut cream and curry paste. Their Nasi Goreng is different from the norm with rice, leeks, beans, mushroom and chilli, all wrapped in a thin omelette [or as the Thais say, ‘wrapped in a blanket’].

C/R/I-01 Oct 14

Dusk Blue is another example of what you can find when you go exploring. This time it is the road to nowhere, apart from a stretch of beach, Jln. Buyung, in Sanur, off Danau Tamblingan. It runs beside what was once The Hyatt. Dusk Blue is a very attractive small café and restaurant [now only open for breakfast and lunch but soon to extend to dinners as well]. White, clean and cool, there is an outside eating area as well as air-con inside, and management who know what they are doing. I love it when the first thing I see on a café menu is ALL DAY breakfasts, just as they should be! When I was a tourist I could never understand why breakfast servings should finish at some ridiculous early time, after all it is just food, same as lunch, etc. At Dusk Blue you can have Scrambled Eggs with herb feta, spinach, avocado, tomato & radish salad drizzled with honey mustard dressing or the full Eggs Benedict [with roesti, cheese, mushrooms and that tarragon hollandaise, even bacon as well if you want?]. There are daytime salads [Prawn Nicoise, Tarragon Chicken or Oven-Roasted Vegetables], a selection of home made Quiche and exotic sandwiches such as Curried Chicken with mango chutney, Beetroot & Avocado with wasabi or Bacon & Egg with red pesto and balsamico. If you prefer a hot lunch, then there is Chicken Harissa or Herbed Mahi-Mahi Kebabs. A bit of style, in Sanur! Sarong, Jln. Raya Petitenget, Kerobokan, has certainly established itself as one of Bali’s premier restaurants. A recent visit [mid March] to discover that the place was still 100%, reservations only, proved the point! One of the reasons is Chef/owner Will Meyrick’s constant search for new taste sensations from all over S.E.Asia. An example of this was their recent participation in the Festival of India in Indonesia promotion by the Indian government. Famous Indian chef Mukesh Kumur [from New Delhi] combined with Sarong’s own resident Indian chef Rama to present an incredible feast of Indian dishes. The Ajwani Seafood Tikka was in fact a whole squid. One that had been stuffed with a mix of prawn, fish & scallop then marinated in cream, flour ajwani and garam masala. I had believed that only Italian chefs could cook squid so as to be tender rather than finishing as a lump of rubber. No, Indian chefs can do that too, it was sensational! But then so was the Murgh Malai Tikka [chicken in cheese yoghurt, cardamom and green chilli], Pork Vindaloo [slow cooked shoulder, simmered in red chilli, cardamom, cloves and black pepper, so tender], Malabri Prawn Curry [mustard seeds, tamarind, ginger and curry leaves in coconut milk] and the Lamb Nigiri Korma [simmered in coriander, mint and green chilli with tomato garam masala]. To finish was a Badam Kheer, Indian rice pudding with almonds, cardamom and saffron served with cardamom ice cream! A selection of these dishes is now being added to the standard menu at Sarong.

Sadly most of the menus are same-same, a mix of the same local dishes and worse still local versions of how they think international cuisines should be prepared and served. Then Milk & Madu arrives on the scene with something completely different! Relaxing but with style, the food both healthy and tasty, and at a price that everyone can afford. As was the case with their other restaurant Watercress [our Best New Cafe of 2013], it has been an instant hit! Their interesting breakfasts [they must have the biggest breakfast menu in Bali] are served from an amazing 7.00 a.m, so even early enough for Bali workers! Skillet Eggs with charred sourdough bread are served with your choice of extras; crisp bacon, roast mushrooms and gruyere or sautéed potato, crumbed chorizo, marinated peppers, parmesan and thyme, etc. A selection of breakfasts served with that tarragon-intense Hollandaise sauce include Benedict and Florentine or the Madu Special of poached egg with smashed avocado, crispy bacon, onion jam & hollandaise. The elusive perfect poached egg [firm white with soft golden yolk, difficult to find anywhere in the world] is an attractive centre piece and the Dukkah Poached Eggs with crisp polenta, marinated peppers, watercress and feta is just about perfect! The breakfast options continue. A touch of Mexico is their Burrito but this one is stuffed with scrambled egg, beans, bacon, corn salsa, cheddar, avocado & sour cream. If you are a fan of sourdough bread then choose between the simple Grilled Cheese Toasty with caramelized onion & cheddar cheese or the more complex Goat’s Cheese with confit cherry tomatoes, Spanish onion, olive oil, sea salt & lemon. Even sweet breakfasts are available, Charred French Toast with strawberries, candied walnuts & honey cream or Upside Down Pancake of mango with the buttermilk pancake, yogurt & maple syrup. For lunch you can have a Gourmet Burger on Brioche [grilled Moroccan chicken breast with marinated peppers, tatziki &

spicy harissa mayo]. Burgers seem to be the 2015 story in Bali, everyone is doing them, some better than others. Watercress came up with a sensational burger when they opened in 2013, a Mahi-Mahi Burger, I could not believe a fish burger could be so good. Now at Milk & Madu their Soft Shell Crab Burger [pictured] is threatening to become their signature dish! The soft shell crab has been prepared tempura style in a light rice flour batter with sriracha mayo [hot chilli], slaw & fresh coriander added. A burger with a crunch!

Flatbread Pizza [French brie, caramelized onion, sweet dates & wilted rocket], or Vegetarian [marinated aubergine, grilled zucchini, mint, basil & feta], but I like the naughty one - French brie, caramelized onion, sweet dates & wilted rocket.

The Baked Rigatoni is with smoked Atlantic salmon, fresh lemon, capers, crème fraiche, dill & parmesan. Smoked Atlantic Salmon can also be had as a centre piece with fresh lemon, capers, crème fraiche, dill & parmesan. There are even interesting salads [quinoa with cucumber, marinated capsicum, cherry tomato, kalamata olives, capers, red onion, marinated feta, garden herbs, fresh lemon & house dressing] and a very healthy House Special of honey roasted pumpkin, marinated capsicum, rocket, cucumber, avocado, sun-dried tomato, snow peas, mint, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds & crushed almonds, quite sensational! The Kids Menu at Milk & Madu displays the same careful compilation [maybe resulting from some childhood dreams?] Simple Toast can even arrive with or without the crust, with peanut butter, vegemite [definitely an Aussie influence here], nutella or jam. Little Soldiers are two soft boiled eggs with vegemite toasties for dipping. Great taste, as healthy as you want it and incredible value as all prices are inclusive of tax and service, no ++ here [the tourist nightmare]! What a way to start your day?

The Flying Cooks made a lightning start to their BICL campaign, winning the first 3 in a row, their most ever wins total in a season (previously one). They were also surprisingly on top of the ladder for a few weeks, before losing all their matches after that to just miss out on the finals. Previously, Canggu CC, the Inaugural BICL Champions, Bali Lost Boys (BLB) under the new management of Ben Smith (Mike King now Head of the BLB Cheer Squad), had a mostly new line up with a lot of the players never playing the Indoor format before. But they took like a duck to water and have not looked back since winning a string of games in a row to finish 2nd on the ladder. Potential Grand Finalists.

And the Defending Champions, the Bali Geckos continue on their merry way, not dropping a game all season and most wins by a big margin. They have only lost one game since they joined the BICL last season. Favourites to repeat. In the Putri (Girls) League, the Red Ants team from Gianyar, finished on top without losing a game. This team is arguable the best girls team there has been since the Putri (Girls) have been part of organised cricket in Bali and should easily take out the Inaugural Putri BICL Trophy.

BASKETBALL NEWS Bali International School hosts IISSAC basketball for the Second Time

The annual IISSAC (Indonesian International Small Schools’ Activities Conference) basketball championship was held this past weekend in Bali for only the second time, and was a tremendous success. Five schools traveled from Java including Surabaya IS, Wesley IS, Bandung IS, Bandung Alliance IS and Mountainview ICS to compete for the championship with games held Friday evening, all Saturday and a finals series on Sunday. Hosts Bali International School put forward one of their better performances to date, with the boys finishing second in the round-robin, only to be surprised in the semi-finals by eventual champions Bandung Alliance. The girls’ team had an emotional victory in the semi-final, but was defeated by a strong Wesley team in the final. It was the girls’ third time reaching the final, but they have yet to take the title. The BIS most valuable player awards went to Alessio Boccaletti and Kyra Fay, both who were playing in their IISSAC swan song. The six IISSAC schools represented all demonstrated great sportsmanship both on and off the court, and the camaraderie inherent between and among all teams present was evident. BIS is now looking forward to the next IISSAC event on the sports calendar, the Swimming Championships which will take place in Bandung over the last weekend in April. This event follows the Bali School Sports Association Swimming Carnival, involving 10 schools from Bali, which will be held at BIS next Friday, March 13. Further on the horizon, BIS will host the IISSAC football tournament in October. INDOOR CRICKET BALI INDOOR CRICKET LEAGUE – Regular Season (PreFinals) Wrap Up This year, saw the most teams participate in the Bali Indoor Cricket League (BICL) with 2 new teams (SMK2 & SMA5, Senior High Schools from Denpasar) joining the 6 teams from last year – 2014 Champions the Bali Geckos, Denpasar CC, Bali United CC, BSF Cricket Academy, Flying Cooks & Bali Lost Boys (previously Canggu CC). The addition of the 2 high school teams provides opportunity to those junior local boys to gain valuable in-match experience, which they would have otherwise not have had, due to the minimal opportunities available to them. With the exciting news of a new ground being developed for cricket in Denpasar, their cricket development will only continue to prosper as their oppurtunies to play more organised league cricket only growing with the commencement of the Bali Cricket League new season just around the corner.

N4 Collection N4 Collection is a new retail destination menswear store offering guys fashion forward pieces with a point of difference that are outstanding, fresh and super exciting! The owner and designer of N4 Collection is the affable Shane McConnell – with a Yaried bacNground encapsulating fashion, art, interior design, publishing, ¿nance & business, however, for the past 10 years Shane has made his mark as a fashion designer of haute couture bridal gowns - totally beautiful, lavish, supreme….. But, there comes a time for a new challenge in one’s career and menswear was in Shane’s sights! Of course men and women do have different body shapes that call for another approach to pattern making, garment cutting and construction, so it takes a clever individual to recognize these two areas. Shane has always enjoyed mens fashion with edge (edge = a point of difference) so with his passion & skill in garment construction, pattern making, a concentration on body ¿t and form, plus an avid interest in textiles, you’ll immediately see how Shane’s talents have translated to his menswear collection which features a strong direction in current stylish European looks. There is no doubt Shane would be considered ‘a trailblazer’ and not afraid to experiment, to use bold color and graphic prints offering a range of stylish and wearable clothes. The ¿rst range is innovative, in taking elements of pattern construction used for womens fashion (i.e. cut on the bias) and incorporated into his mens collection using high quality cottons, leather and linens. Versatility is how Shane views his menswear, pieces that will mix in with his clients current wardrobe, but of course, there will always be new pieces that will take a client’s eye - a leather coat with faux croc treatment, a new quilted jacket with an ‘out there’ printed lining, a fabulous trench coat, slimline shirts cut on the bias that feature a few zips here and there. All fabrics are imported from Italy and the N4 Collection is made in Bali. N4 Collection is a re¿ned good looking store that offers a well stocked selection of individual pieces, so if it’s more than a basic linen shirt you want, something more edgy, then this is your ‘go to’ store for a visit. And must remark that I love his stylish Brogues to the Clooney Àip Àop sandals, it’s really hard to ¿nd good quality shoes & sandals for men that are a little different. Shane is passionate about providing his clients with the best personal attention, as he says “my clients are my walking billboards”. I recently spied a rather fabulous long dress in the window, does this mean a little of that haute couture that Shane is so well known for back in Australia. If it is an original wedding dress that you maybe interested in, why not send him a note…you just never know. N4 Collection is situated just around the corner from the happening hub of Sister¿elds (the latest buzzy café in the area ) next door to Kody & Ko. // N4 Collection - Jl Kayu Cendana, No 3, Seminyak T: +62 361 899 6970 855 E: info@N4Collection.com W. www.N4Collection.com

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris

Glyphosate ‘Dear Garden Doctor, I have alot of weeds growing along my driveway and pavements, in the cracks and along the edges. I always pull them out but they seem to grow back even stronger than before. Friends have told me to spray with poison but I’d rather not considering I have small children and pets. Do you have any organic ideas for killing weeds? Thanks for advice, Antonio.’ In searching for an organic method to eradicate weeds you have done the right thing. Weed killer is known by many names, most commonly, herbicide, roundup, or glyphosate. By spraying this poison around the garden you risk harmful side effects to yourself, your children and pets, possibly even your neighbours considering wind can easily carry the off spray next door. Poison residue will stay in the soil for at least a few weeks, possibly longer, and you de¿nitely don’t want your children and pets playing around in that, and you can’t quarantine them from the garden at the same time. Just read the safety instructions on the packet and you will see that it not a benign solution!

of glyphosate had already been demonstrated in laboratory studies. But the public were kept in the dark through a web of deception, fraud, and half truths committed by testing companies working for the corporations. ....Need I say more? Widely regarded as the father of modern medicine Hippocrates famously stated that ‘Food is medicine’. Well if your medicine is toxic, then what chance do you have to be healthy? But the effects continue reaching far from the garden or farm where the initial spray takes place, residues will wash into ground water affecting streams, rivers, even oceans, and don’t forget the aquifers, that many rely on for their main water supply. The disastrous effects of indiscriminate waste disposal on waterways and the land in general around Bali are visible for all to see, but that doesn’t mean that we should simply add to the problem, or that the problem is too big to solve.

Scienti¿c evidence has shown that glyphosate (the main ingredient in herbicide) can cause or accelerate cancer rates. Of course the manufacturers have released their of¿cial studies that will state that there are no long term effects on humans and animals. According to them it breaks down in the soil quickly and within a few weeks it’s gone. Of course they would say that, it’s in their best interest to do so, plus the scientists who conduct their studies are on their payroll. All too often governments do not work for the best interests of the people, rather working in the best interests of large corporations at the expense of the masses. But hey what’s new?

Using organic gardening or farming methods is a step in the right direction to stemming the flow of pollution and eventually cleaning up Bali. Too often people adopt the attitude ‘out of sight, out of mind’ the chemicals we add to the food chain and water cycle through the use of herbicides and pesticides are usually not visible to the naked eye because they are water soluble, presence is usually confirmed through a laboratory test. A murky brown or green stagnant waterway is visible evidence or a physical manifestation of the pollution problem, so often seen around Bali’s over developed south, and eventually it all ends up in the world’s oceans.

You don’t have to resort to using glyphosate, although touted as being safe and biodegradable it doesn’t have such a good reputation if you take the time to look into research from around the world. Just Google – Glyphosate and Cancer.

“I’ve never been so alarmed by pollution situation as this trip to Bali/Indo. We need solutions and multi-industry backing. If Bali doesn’t #DoSomething serious about this pollution it’ll be impossible to surf here in a few years. Worst I’ve ever seen.... Plastic, random rubbish, medical waste/needles on beach. Disgusting. Smelly water. Really sad.” – Kelly Slater via Twitter 2012. 11 times World Sur¿ng Champion.

The phenomenon of genetically modi¿ed food has come about so that crops could be developed to resist glyphosate, meaning large tracts of agricultural land could be sprayed to kill all the weeds, without killing the crops. And of course there is no residue left in the soil or on the fruit and vegetables afterwards. Well that’s what they tell you, and do you believe them? It’s just an amazing coincidence that food these days is less nutritious and cancer rates are much higher than in the past, yet it has nothing to do with the food supply? Here is just a snippet of what I found from a quick search. ‘Glyphosate induces human breast cancer cells growth via estrogen receptors.’ -Food Chem Toxicol. 2013 Sep;59:12936. doi: 10.1016/j.fct.2013.05.057. Epub 2013 Jun 10. ‘Studies dating back to the 1980s have indicated that farmers in many countries appear to have higher rates for Hodgkin’s disease, leukaemia, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and cancers of the lip, stomach, prostate, skin, brain, and connectives tissue compared with the general population. The strongest links of cancers in agricultural workers are to herbicides.’ - Herbicides and cancer. J Natl Cancer Inst 1992, 84, 1866-74. ‘The incidence of diseases and adverse conditions that have gone up in parallel with the increase in GM crops and the use of glyphosate herbicide since 1994 include thyroid cancer, liver cancer, hospitalizations for acute kidney injury, diabetes, and end stage renal disease. It is also a prime suspect in the rise of human male infertility worldwide’. Glyphosate has been banned in Sri Lanka based on the evidence of many studies. - Sri Lanka bans glyphosate for deadly kidney disease epidemic. Science in Society 62 (to appear) 2014. A review on glyphosate toxicity written by Caroline Cox of Northwest Coalition for Alternatives to Pesticides, US, published in 1995 showed that most if not all the toxic effects

I could really go on all day about this, but it’s probably about time that I gave you some solutions, they are really quite simple and they won’t end up causing health and environmental problems. The reason the weeds grow back so easily is because in pulling weeds from pavement cracks you will often not be able to pull the roots. Most weeds will easily regenerate form the root. For weeds growing in cracks in paved areas, simply boil your kettle and then pour the hot water slowly into the cracks at ground level, where weeds are growing from. The hot water will kill the root. Wait a few days and the weed tops will be withered and brown, then simply pull them out. Doing this once a week as maintenance should be all you need. Alternatively you can pour or spray undiluted vinegar into the cracks, but remember that vinegar is acidic so take care around concrete and only use household strength vinegar (6% acetic acid).

In reference to my earlier rant, I advise readers to Google – Glyphosate and Cancer. After reading through the evidence I can assure you that you won’t want to spray weed killer again, and you will probably also want to begin growing your own fruit and veggies immediately, or at least buy organic in future.

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) By Ayu Spicy I love cooking with lavender and still have a bag full that my sister collected for me. If you can’t find the dried buds you can still make this sorbet by substituting rosemary or thyme for the lavender. If you don’t have an ice cream maker you can freeze and scrape it into a granita. See the note below for instructions. This refreshing dessert can also be doused with limoncello for an extra bit of pizzazz. Limoncello: (http://baliadvertiser.biz/articles/food_glorious/2008/ liquore.html)

Lemon Lavender (or Rosemary) Sorbet Serves 6 - 8

While this is simmering, finely grate the lemon zest from 6 lemons and the one orange, making sure to not grate the bitter white part of the skins. Set aside.

C/Ns/G-9 July 14

Juice the orange and lemons and chill the juices in the fridge. Strain out the lavender from the water and add the sugar, lemon and orange zest. Bring to a boil and gently simmer for 5 minutes, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Take off the heat and cool completely. Once cool combine with the cold juices. Chill overnight if using an ice cream maker. Then follow the ice cream maker’s instructions. If you are making a granita pour the mixture into a flat wide pan and put directly in the freezer. Every 30 minutes remove from the freezer and stir with a fork until frozen. This will take a couple of hours so plan on staying home. When you are ready to serve use the tines of a fork to scrape the granita into ice crystals.

Ingredients: - 2 1/2 cups water - 3-4 Tbl. lavender buds, or rosemary leaves chopped - 6 yellow lemons, washed - 1 orange, washed - 300 gr. granulated sugar - optional - 2 Tbl. gin/vodka infused with lavender or rosemary (see instructions below) Directions: Combine the water and lavender buds or chopped rosemary leaves and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot and simmer for 10 minutes. Take off the heat and let it sit for half an hour.

Note: For lavender (or rosemary) infused gin or vodka put a cup of the spirits with 1 Tbl. lavender buds or rosemary and allow to steep for a week. Strain the buds or leaves out. If you don’t want to use this in the sorbet you can add an additional 1 Tbl. lavender buds or chopped rosemary leaves to the tea above. Serve in a goblet with a piece of chocolate on the side. YUM!!! All recipes are available on the Bali Advertiser website in both English and Indonesian versions. You can easily copy and paste and print. Paste as unformatted text.

Question: I’ve been friends with a woman here in Bali for almost 10 years. She was the only person I knew when I first arrived here 3 years ago, and although I care about her a lot, I believe our relationship has come to an end. About 2 months ago, we had an argument that was entirely my fault. I derailed a conversation we were having when I had been awake for about 72 hours and told her I couldn’t talk because I was writing an important document. It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize what I had said, and I apologized. But, she became understandably frustrated and, as a result, decided it would be best for us to cut off contact for about a month. After that, we were to get together again. Because of sleep deprivation, I don’t remember on what exact date we were supposed to reconnect. I tried to contact her a couple of times after a month had passed, and I received no response. I’m kind of okay with this because, regardless of what I’m doing, she ignores boundaries I set and demands my attention and emotional support constantly. Moreover, I am paralyzed to death to disagree with her or express my own needs, complaints, or even information about myself because of the potential “consequences.” Her life isn’t exactly easy, and since she demands so much from me, I suspect she may need me, and I won’t be there. She’s an old friend, and we’ve been through a lot. Her not contacting me feels like proof of my own failure. I’m afraid I may be just a needy self-centered jerk. I would love advice on moving on with my life, and on what to do if she contacts me. The self-preservation, social justice, educated side of me says to run away, but the rest of me can’t be certain that I’m not the bad guy and being manipulative, overly needy and possibly oppressive. Should I try to fix things with her? Dr. ZZ: Heavens no! You didn’t derail the conversation when you didn’t want to talk because you were in the middle of writing an important paper. You needed to finish your work and get some sleep. You owe her nothing: no apologies, zero. That’s called setting a boundary, and it is completely normal and reasonable. This woman has a strange idea about boundaries. She has you so worn down and spun around that when she cuts off contact, you’re the one trying to resume the friendship. The ways she treats you is, frankly, abusive. You do not need or deserve that in your life. Take her current absence as a blessing. Then, when she resurfaces -- and she will resurface; few people will put up with her – say, “The more time has passed, the more I enjoyed our break from each other. Let’s make it permanent, and stay out of each other’s lives.” That’s way more polite than she deserves though she may call you names anyway. She may even attempt to worm her

C/BM/U-18 Feb 15

way back in to your life. Let it go. All that will pass. Then, you won’t have to talk to her anymore. Question: I have a close group of friends, which includes my best girlfriend forever (BFF) and one particular guy. The two of them are two of the most important people in my life. Recently, my BFF was having issues with her boyfriend and told me she was having feelings about our guy friend. My roommate overheard us and said that she and another woman we know were having similar feelings. The three of them decided to confront him about his rampant flirting, which they believed was misleading. Long story short, our guy friend admitted that he liked my BFF and my roommate and swore he would never do anything to mess with either of their relationships. He apologized to the third woman for any confusing feelings and told her that he didn’t see her that way, that he saw her as a friend. Then he apologized for making things weird for everybody and said he’d stop.

After a while, my BFF broke up with her boyfriend and said she still had feelings for our guy friend. Shortly afterwards, my roommate announced she was dating him. I was confused, but I ignored it. Then, after a week or so and a lot of discussion, my BBF started dating him too, and he identified himself as “Polyamorous” (having more than one intimate relationship at the same time with the knowledge and consent of everyone involved). Now my third female friend feels mega-uber-betrayed, and I wish I could make her stop mentioning it to me. She won’t stop complaining about it, and I’m rapidly losing patience. I want to tell her she’s being stupid and to let it go. Do you have any advice? Dr. ZZ: Anybody would probably be confused by this lengthy cast of characters. Here’s a single, one-size-fits-all mantra you may do well to memorize and use: “I don’t know. It’s none of my business. You should ask (person’s name) directly.”

C/BM/G-4 March 15

Use this for everyone -- about anything related to another person’s love life. Then change the subject. Practice your best shrug, and be a bad audience for this kind of thing. Let your angry girlfriend know that you understand how hurt she must feel about all this, and suggest that she put her energy into finding a more desirable boyfriend. Then let her know she’s obsessing, and that you can’t be available to listen to this anymore. Good friendships can stand a little bluntness. If she doesn’t get the message, then she’s the problem.

“What A Load Of Rollocks” “I want to hire a rowing boat. “Certainly sir, what would you like? A skiff or a punt.” “I don’t know what’s the difference?” “A skiff you need a couple of oars to pull it along, in a punt you shove a stick in and poke it along the bottom.” “I beg your pardon?” “I’ll give you the skiff, you’re less likely to fall in. Now do you need oars or have you brought your own?” “No need to be rude, that’s my girlfriend.” “No, your oars. These long wooden things, you shove ‘em in the water to row you along.” “This is starting to sound complicated.” “You’ll need a pair of rollocks.” “I beg your pardon.” “Rollocks, you’ll need a pair of rollocks.” “I’ve got a pair of rollocks, thank you very much.” “These are rollocks, you insert them in the side of the boat so your oars can move freely.” “I get the feeling you are extracting the urine out of me.” “Now just a couple of documents to sign sir.” “Documents to sign?” “Yes, can’t be too careful these days sir. “Here’s the contract, the insurance policy and a power of attorney giving me full rights so I can look after your interests while you are out on the water, oh and do you have your passport?” “But this contract is 54 pages long…..” “It’s our standard contract sir.” “….and the writing is very small.” “Like to borrow my magnifying glass sir?” “What’s this, I can’t take animals in the boat, can’t I take my cat.” “You might want to take your elephant sir.” “This boat must not be used for military purposes?” “Yes sir, a bloke last week decided to blockade the river, some grievance over a hire contract I believe.” “I am fully responsible if the boat sinks? Sounds a bit draconian to me.” “It is all for your safety and protection.” “But I only want to hire a rowing boat for half an hour.” “Trust me sir.” “Oh, ok where do I sign?”

Articles 42 (Hak Pakai) and 45 (Hak Sewa) state that these titles are available to:

Leasehold Land Titles in Indonesia

How To Avoid The Pitfalls

As we said last issue there are legal ways that foreigners can hold land title in Indonesia.

Decide what title you will use.

Foreigners can legally hold leasehold titles established under Hak Pakai and Hak Sewa land titles. These are fully legal arrangements that, if set up correctly, are safe, are far simpler and carry much less risk than nominee ownership arrangements. Hak Pakai (The “right of use” land title) is established under Part VI of the Agrarian Law. Hak Pakai are primary rights meaning that they are established between an individual (or legal entity) and the government. The title has to be registered with the land office. This suggests that you cannot take out a Hak Pakai title with a private landowner unless that landowner surrenders his/her land to government control for the duration of the title. Landowners don’t want to surrender their land so, to get around it, some people may arrange what they call a Hak Pakai without registering it at the land office. We can suspect that such an arrangement does not comply with the legislation and so is risky. Article 41 states: 1) Hak Pakai is the right to use and/or to collect produce from land directly controlled by the State, or land owned by other persons which gives the rights and obligations stipulated in the decision upon granting this right by an authorised official, or in the agreement to work the land, as far as it does not conflict with the spirit and provision of this law. 2) The right of use may be granted: a. for a certain period of time as long as the land is used for a specific purpose. 3) The granting of the right of use may not be accompanied by terms that contain elements of blackmail. Article 43 1. Regarding land directly controlled by the State, the Right to Use title may only be transferred to another party with the permission of an authorised official. 2. A Right to Use Title over land with right of ownership may only be transferred to another party if it is allowed within the terms of the agreement(s) concerned. Hal Sewa untuk Bangunan (The right to lease land for building title) is established in Part VI of the Agrarian Law No 5 of 1960 Part VII. Hak Sewa are secondary rights and are set up between a person (or legal entity) and someone who, in turn, has primary rights (such as Hak Milik - freehold title) established with the government. You can lease land from a landowner. Article 44 of the act states: “(1) A person or a corporation has the right to lease land, if he is entitled to utilise land owned by another for the purpose of building, by paying to its owner an amount of money as rent.” It goes on to say that the rent can be paid before, after or during the rental period.

a) Indonesian citizens; b) Foreigner nationals residing in Indonesia; c) Legal entities established under Indonesian law and domiciled in Indonesia; d) Foreign legal entities that have official representation in Indonesia. Regulations The Agrarian Law sets the basic legal parameters of land ownership. How the law is implemented and land ownership is managed is determined by regulations. These may vary by local legislation and may be subject to change from time to time. C/Bm/I-21 Jan 15

Regulation 40 of 1996 further defines conditions and limitations: • Land titles can be bought and sold, exchanged, granted or inherited. • Rights can be transferred to other people. • The land must be used for the purpose laid down in the title agreement. • The land must be kept in good condition • The environment must not be damaged. • The land title can be revoked by the government if the title holder doesn’t comply with his/her obligations, if it is in the public interest or if the land is neglected or destroyed. Time periods Regulation 40 of 1996 states a maximum period for a Hak Pakai title is 25 years which cannot be extended but can be renewed. Each renewal must be registered with the land office. You will find a lot of variation in what people say are the time periods available for leasehold titles. My understanding is a maximum of 25 years (some people think 30) which can be extended, there is then an option to renew for a further period that can also be extended giving a total period of 90 years (some say 100).

C/BM/G-6 August 14

If You Have a Problem with.....

Hak Pakai is a primary title directly between you and the government and so is very safe. It would appear from the Agrarian Law that you cannot register Hak Pakai between you and an individual unless the individual surrenders control. If you are leasing land from an individual who owns the land Hak Sewa is probably the way to go but you must check their Hak Milik status over the land.

You should have a Due Diligence carried out to check: • • • • • •

Who really owns the land, is it shared ownership. Does he have the right to lease the land to you. Are there any debts over the land. Define the piece of land exactly. Do you have legal access to the land from a public road. What the land is zoned to be used for, can it be used for the purpose you want to use it.

In preparing the documentation you need to: • • • • • • • •

Agree the price. Check taxes that have to be paid, how much and who will pay. Make sure the lease agreement is secure if the landowner dies or sells the land and that any new owner must honour the lease agreement. Make sure that you have the right to sell or pass on the land to a third party and that this will not require the signature of the landowner. Define the period of time and extensions available plus renewal options and further extensions on that. How much will extensions and renewals cost (this is usually “at the market rate”). If you pay a deposit make sure you do it with a notarised document to make sure you can get the deposit back if something goes wrong and get a receipt for your money. When paying the money be very careful that the money is only paid after everything is secure.

If the land is leasehold you will have to arrange a building permit (IMB) in the landowner’s name so keep on good terms with him/her. It is very important that you find a trustworthy legal person to look after your interests when making arrangements or drawing up legal documents. Don’t take things at face value, it is also always wise to get a second opinion.

SANUR SCOOP

After the ¿rst few bites of their Mongolian beef and garlic prawn dishes, it’s no longer a secret why most of their patrons return for a second meal within just a few days, and many drive regularly from Nusa Dua and Ubud, to get their ¿x of “New York-style” Chinese food. And those Fortune Cookies? They are crisp and fresh, made in house of course, and in fact, sold to every Chinese restaurant in hotels and resorts across the island. Fortune Cookie, Jl Sudamala 5; bookings 0361 283342. SCEPTIC TO CHAMPION Journalism sometimes leads to an overdose of skepticism, so I remember being astonished at the success of my ¿rst chiropractic treatment. I’d been frightened to let someone adjust my neck bones, but I hurt so much after a car accident that I was prepared to try anything. Now I consider regular treatments essential for keeping my body healthy - in fact for me, a simple crick in the neck is a good reminder to make an appointment. You’d be astonished at the range of health issues that can be directly related to problems of the spine, including poor sleep, colic, bedwetting, allergies and asthma, ear infections, hay fever, migraines, indigestion, menstrual problems and infertility, chronic fatigue and ¿bromyalgia. Bali Chiropractic and Massage’s Sanur clinic is run by wellquali¿ed and experienced professionals, who use the most up do date chiropractic techniques available. Jl. Danau Tamblingan No 150, between Ryoshi and Crystal Divers; book appointments on 0812 3647 3888. THE REAL DEAL It’s Sunday and you wake up full of enthusiasm for life because you can almost see, smell and taste your Sunday brunch, piled high with delicious French croissants! Or is it more likely, here in Bali, that you’ve experienced that up and down, “Oh, yes! …. Oh dear, how disappointing” sensation, when you thought you’d discovered delicious French bread and pastries, only to taste Blue Band margarine in the ¿rst bite. So the best news is that French bread, made with imported French Àour and butter, is baked by a French pastry chef and delivered to Sanur every Sunday, just in time. Their sales list includes baguettes (half, mini, individual; muesli, poppy or sesame), and croissants (full size or mini; chocolate, raisin and traditional) and will make other products to order for home, restaurant or hotel. Just place your order with Madame Delphine (the locals call her Bu Dol¿n) at info@daily-baguette.com or see Facebook: Daily Baguette. You can pick up your orders between 9.30 and 10am in front of Cinta Alam Organic Laundry, Jl. Batur Sari 44. Check products and prices on www.daily-baguette. com.

Bless Mak Beng for her delicious, spicy, ¿ery “lunch set”. One bowl of chili ¿sh head soup (I still remember the ¿rst time I saw cucumber in her soup; such an excellent Àavourabsorbing idea), one extra crispy piece of still-kicking-fresh local ¿sh, the best sambal on the planet and a bowl of rice, washed down with iced tea or orange juice. At the beach end of Jl. Hang Tuah; if you have to wait a little, that only proves my point. TABASCO JAM There’s probably nothing hotter than Tabasco Jam on the island – a group of experienced musicians who punch out the rhythms in many genres, including blues, soul and funk, spiced up with a little rock and roll. These are the guys who get invited to play with top international bands when they travel to Bali; they are high energy, fun entertainers who will keep your foot tapping all night, or have you dancing to the great gravelly voice of Komang and Kim Patra’s cheeky lyrics.

I’m talking of those committed Sanur residents who consent to receiving a next-to-free massage from an excellent international student, all in the cause of better spas and massage centres around the world. Yes, another lovely little Sanur secret. While overseas students come to Bali for the latest in internationally accredited spa training, someone has to provide the body to practice on! As they say, “It’s a tough life, but someone has to do it.”

What do a New Yorker called Marcello and his Javanese wife do when they come to Bali? They open a Chinese restaurant called Fortune Cookie. Now it’s not that silly, actually, because this high-energy couple looked around for something that wasn’t yet on offer, something they missed from their busy life in the US.

SOMETHING FISHY? HOT STUFF! Yes, I’m a local. Yes, the Jakarta visitors call and even reach out in horror when they see me slurping up the sambal with a teaspoon, thinking I’m a newbie tourist who doesn’t know her mouth is about to be on ¿re. But that doesn’t mean I take Warung Mak Beng for granted.

GIFTING CHILDREN C/He/G-18 March 15

What possible gift can you give your child to help them do better on exams, improve in school, open them to being calmer and more conscious? Give them the gift of Access Bars®. What are Access Bars®? The Bars® are a hands-on, gentle touch to the 32 points on the head that calm the mind and the body. Because the points run paralell through the head like lines, this is where the name the Bars came from. The points store all of the thoughts and beliefs that you have ever had about anything.

their children received the Bars. Sometimes after just one session dramatic changes have occurred. A little boy who got low scores in math suddenly started getting high scores. A little girl with chronic headaches now reports that they’re gone. A young competitive swimmer noticed that her times had improved. How does it get better than this? Gary Douglas has been working for years with children with Autism, ADD, ADHD, OCD and the whole gamut of what is known as ‘learning disabilities’. He believes that these children are highly intelligent; they just don’t know how to communicate their thoughts and feelings. After Bars®, many of these children have experienced subtle to dramatic changes. The more often the children have sessions the more change can be created.

Lela Thomas, an Access Consciousness® Certified Facilitator and resident of Bali, offers free sessions to Indonesian children and helps Indonesian families to cope with learning challenges. Free Bars® classes can be taken on any regularly scheduled Bars class day for Indonesian parents and caregivers of ADD/ADHD/OCD There are bars and the full range of Autism and for healing, body, control, awareness, creativity, sadness, joy, Asperger Syndrome.

It acts as a delete button to eliminate any beliefs that are no longer valid for you, giving you more space and This is Lela’s gift to Indonesian parents that would like to calmness in your head. Because children are more open and learn this really simple tool. This is also something that have fewer points of views they only require a short session will support the health and wellbeing of the parents and caregivers. ‘What are the possibilities for these children if of about thirty minutes. they received these sessions three or four times a week?

What if they are a session. Here’s what some of the children had to say totally telepathic and more? What can we learn from them?’ after one session: Eashaan a nine year boy described his experience, “I felt like I had a shower - fresh, light and clean”. “The most recent recipient Aged eleven, Artyem said, “I felt more relaxed and did better of The Bars® is 9 years old. in school”.

Is Gluten Bad for You? Is Wheat Bad for You? Yes & No – but mostly, Not.

Back in the 1970’s Dr Jeffrey Bland, a renowned professor of clinical nutrition wrote a seminal work called “Your Health under Siege”. In that book Prof. Bland explained for us all exactly how the chronic diseases that increasingly killed us were caused by the debased and polluted food we ate. That situation has not changed. Medical science may keep us alive longer, but it does not keep us healthy; and the content of our food is more debased and denatured than at any time in history.

number-one source of protein in developing countries. Humans have been eating wheat for around 10,000 years, starting with domestication of wild grasses in the Near East, at the dawn of agriculture. Even the original paleos ate cereals. They didn’t grow it, they just picked it.

With all the illnesses and ailments now associated with wheat and gluten, one has to ask: how could the human race have been so wrong about this staple food for so long? Or, are the health concerns a figment of over active imagination, propelled by the gluten-free trend, egged Why do we put up with it? Are we really that credulous? on by the pofit-motive?

IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

HEPATITIS A Australia is in the midst of a hepatitis A health scare, after at least 10 people contracted the virus after eating frozen berries. Should we be concerned here in Bali? Yes. Hepatitis A is nothing new here. The cause of the scare in Australia is frozen berries (Nannas, Creative Gourmet). The one thing that these berries have in common is that they are grown and packed on China, which like Indonesia has poor toilet hygiene. So while it would be wise to check your own freezers for berry’s that may be affected, it is wise in this country to be constantly vigilant against diseases that are transmitted “oral-fecally” such as Hepatitis A and Salmonella Typhoid. What is Hepatitis A? Hepatitis A is a contagious liver disease that results from infection with the Hepatitis A virus. It can range in severity from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a severe illness lasting several months. Hepatitis A is usually spread when a person ingests fecal matter — even in microscopic amounts — from contact with objects, food, or drinks contaminated by the feces, or stool, of an infected person. How is Hepatitis A spread? Hepatitis A is usually spread when the Hepatitis A virus is taken in by mouth from contact with objects, food, or drinks contaminated by the feces (or stool) of an infected person. A person can get Hepatitis A through: • Person to person contact ✏ when an infected person does not wash his or her hands properly after going to the bathroom and touches other objects or food ✏ when a parent or caregiver does not properly wash his or her hands after changing diapers or cleaning up the stool of an infected person ✏ when someone has sex or sexual contact with an infected person. (not limited to anal-oral contact) • Contaminated food or water ✏ Hepatitis A can be spread by eating or drinking food or water contaminated with the virus. (This can include frozen or undercooked food.) This is more likely to occur in countries where Hepatitis A is common and in areas where there are poor sanitary conditions or poor personal hygiene. The food and drinks most likely to be contaminated are fruits, vegetables, shellfish, ice, and water. What are the symptoms of Hepatitis A? Some people with Hepatitis A do not have any symptoms.

If you do have symptoms, they may include the following: • Fever • Fatigue • Loss of appetite • Nausea • Vomiting • Abdominal pain • Dark urine • Clay-colored bowel movements • Joint pain • Jaundice (a yellowing of the skin or eyes) • Some people get Hepatitis A and have no symptoms of the disease. Adults are more likely to have symptoms than children.

C/He/I-18 March 15

How is Hepatitis A treated? There are no special treatments for Hepatitis A. Most people with Hepatitis A will feel sick for a few months before they begin to feel better. A few people will need to be hospitalized. During this time, doctors usually recommend rest, adequate nutrition, and fluids. People with Hepatitis A should check with a health professional before taking any prescription pills, supplements, or over-the-counter medications, which can potentially damage the liver. Alcohol should be avoided. Can Hepatitis A be prevented? Yes. The best way to prevent Hepatitis A is through vaccination with the Hepatitis A vaccine. Vaccination is recommended for all children, for travelers to certain countries (Indonesia), and for people at high risk for infection with the virus. Frequent hand-washing with soap and warm water after using the bathroom, changing a diaper, or before preparing food can help prevent the spread of Hepatitis A.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

What does ‘gengsi’ mean? Have you ever felt like not wanting to do something because you felt that it was ‘beneath you’? That is ‘gengsi’, and a person who acts like this is ‘gengsian’. Thirty or forty years ago, the only people in Bali who were ‘gengsian’ about anything were people of caste: the Brahmin, the satriya and the wesya. Today, it seems that anyone, no matter what your social status, has something that they are ‘gengsi’ about. Have you noticed that it’s near impossible to get anyone to work as a maid/nanny or a labourer/handyman these days? Simply due to gengsi most people would rather work at a mobile phone counter, a laundry, a hotel or a restaurant, even though at the end of the day they may end up with a lower salary, have to travel further in horrendous traffic, and endure poorer working conditions. It is the connotation that is the key. This is the same reason why people don’t want to be seen walking or riding a bicycle anywhere: it has the image of poorness and hardship. Gengsi is particularly endemic in a community based society like Bali where everybody knows everybody and your business is everybody’s business. As with many Asian cultures, saving face is everything, and it is not wise to jeopardize social status by lowering the image the community already has of you. This is why it is extremely rare to see a rich person in Indonesia wearing old clothes, do a DIY job at home, walk their kids to school, sweep their own yard, or wash their own car. Any of these things would be ‘beneath them’ and thought to be unfitting. Planning for the future and understating one’s wealth are aspects of more socialistic cultures that modern people here could learn well from. In the meantime, ‘gengsi’ is a prevalent attitude in Indonesia that only makes the gap between the rich and poor seem so much more dramatic.

A Dyeing Art

We take for granted that the clothes and other textiles in our lives are available in a rainbow of colours. But until the middle of the 19th century fabrics could only be coloured with plant dyes, a complicated, lengthy and messy business.

Computer & Internet Where did you get interest in Bali’s own natural, homegrown ingredients?

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

We realized that we are based on an island that has many microclimates and the ability to produce a wide range of ingredients. This got us on the road in search of any ingredients that we could use locally. The results were amazing! Did you have any exciting adventures in your search for ingredients?

Gregory Guerguerian: Innovator of Healthy Food Ingredients Greg Guerguerian was born and brought up in Paris. Surrounded by a large and loving family, he had a happy childhood. On the weekends the family would go out to the countryside of Burgandy to meet local artisan bakers, patissiers, cheese makers, butchers and farmers. Not surprisingly, although his background is in e n g i n e e r i n g management, he developed a love of food. Greg ¿rst arrived in Bali in 2001 to visit his wife’s Indonesian friends. He’s been here ever since. With his partner RaÀi, he opened the Monsieur Spoon restaurant in 2012. Greg is an ardent supporter of locally grown produce and ingredients. Did any of your childhood experiences have an inÀuence on your attitudes as an adult? De¿nitely. I am French but of Armenian descent. I inherited the survival instinct from my parents and grandparents that we Armenians “developed” after the Armenian genocide in 1915. Because of this, I can live and survive anywhere, both in life and in business. This instinct helps me to keep my chin up and carry on. What are your main interests? I love cooking. Operating a patisserie - a shop selling French pastries and cakes - and baking are my passions. I’ve studied intensively the art and science of bread making - kneading dough, making my own yeast, watching it rise, baking in wood ovens… these are timeless pleasures. In France I spent a lot of time with a good friend who was a Boulanger (baker), Àour grinder and chef Patissier (pastry chef). We tested many new recipes, discussed, tasted and evaluated our results. I even built a wood oven in order to try different ways of making bread. I got a lot of inspiration from the French culinary culture but also from Greece, Lebanon, Portugal and Germany. Do you get any pleasure from other activities?

In Amed in the far northeast part of the island, known for its high quality sea salt, we met this Balinese guy on the beach who told us how ¿ve generations of his family have kept the artisanal way of collecting sea salt alive. Did you make any exciting discovery? Takesumi bamboo charcoal made in Bali by a Japanese friend and her husband Georges. They use a traditional Japanese earth kiln ¿red at temperatures of more than 1000 degrees. Takesumi has been used in Asia for hundreds of years to improve people’s health. Were the ingredients you found more expensive than those you can buy in a Bali supermarket? No! We get better pries because we work directly with the producers. No middlemen = better prices. Is there a great difference in taste between these ingredients and those commercially grown? Incomparable! The Àavors are intense and the textures are authentic. Do you use any animal protein in the food you serve? Traditional French bakeries do not use animal proteins. Is it important that the ingredients you use be organic? Nothing is organic in Bali. Don’t believe the hype! Contaminated water Àows everywhere in Bali. This means that using the word organic here is tricky. It’s safer and more accurate to say that food in Bali is either produced on a commercial, industrial scale or it is made by food and beverage artisans. There is a huge difference in quality between the two.

What is your opinion of GMO food? It’s the end of the world. Genetically produced foods have gotten out of control. It’s become impossible to avoid them. We just do not have enough knowledge about the consequences of consuming this altered food, yet we keep using them more and more. We are playing with chemicals we can’t control. There’s even a real possibility that GMOs can cause cancer. Why is it crucial to buy local and support eco-friendly agriculture in Bali? Because the support promotes the development of sustainable local businesses. It’s all about working in harmony with our hosts and giving back and contributing to Bali’s health and well-being.

I also enjoy painting and sculpture and outdoor sports like trekking, wakeboarding, swimming and badminton.

What is the best way to contact you?

Where did you get your love of food and cooking?

Instagram or WhatsApp. For readers not familiar with these apps, contact: of¿ce@monsieurspoon.com.

Food is a lifetime obsession for the French. My mother comes from the famous wine region of Burgundy. When I was young, she introduced me to local culinary artisans. I was very much inspired by these lovers of food, their dedication to their professions and their quality products. BrieÀy, what is your food philosophy? Keep it light and simple. Create a one-bite sensation. Food should not only taste good, i.e. have the “correct” taste, but it is also important that pastry have a pleasing shape and color.

Mother and Daughters Dressed in Pygmees Style The designer of Pygmees kids, a creative brand of clothes made in Bali, described the Pygmees spirit as “colourful”, ”graphic” and “playful”. He explained that a natural bridge exists between the adult world and a child’s enchanted universe. With the launching of PYGMEES Kids, the brand achieved the logical next step. After presenting girls, boys and babies collections for years, the designers ¿nally dedicated their efforts on the brand’s main specialty: dresses. A large range of these was created, completing the existing adult collections. Wide, shapely or straight cuts will enlighten every princess from 2 to 12 years old. If bright colours are the rule, elegant combinations like black and white or black and fuschia are present too. They have adapted various models of the adult collections to the needs of the little ones and Pygmees is currently developing the worldwide popular “MotherDaughter Concept”. With its growing success, the brand plans to widen its range to baby fashion including sizes from 3 to 18 months very soon!

MUSIC MATTERS By Toby Hello Music fans and welcome to a new edition of Music Matters here in your local Bali Advertiser. This issue we are counting down to the Epic Largest Jazz festival in the world which will be held in Nusa Dua on March the 15th. I am going to be lucky enough to review and also asking questions about what is happening with the pub music scene in Jimbaran? But before all that I have a very special announcement.

believe this gig is going to be the ¿rst of many, and is a great initial indication of how Bali is now being seen as a great place for exposure from larger Indonesian bands, who usually only perform in Jakarta.

I wanted to bring my reader’s attention the sorry state of live music in Jimbaran. Before in Music Matters I have reviewed, and spoken at length about the brilliant local pub scene in Jimbaran. I am now once again living here and I can only The GWK is fast becoming a great venue here in Bali, with say how disappointed I am with the pub scene and the lack Dream Fields festival kicking the venue into high gear and of live music. (GWK excluded). the spate of smaller events that are happening as a result. It comes as no surprise that Indonesian Artist Iwan Fals is What is happening? set to hold a concert entitled Songs of Kingdom at the And more importantly what has happened? Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK), on 14 March. It appears Jimbaran “In principle we would like to invite to practice the values of has grown in size kindness and cleanliness in Bali. I would like to let the world with massive hotel private know that right now the human population continues to grow a n d and as we grow in number we grow in love however it is the r e s i d e n c e earth that is so alone we need to love the earth our planet c o n s t r u c t i o n as we love one another. ,” Iwan said at a press conference happening round the clock and is obviously attracting more tourists to the in Kemang, South Jakarta, Monday (26/1/ 2015). area yet the live music scene appears to have died! Bars have closed and popular places I used to go and see great ‘Singing local bands have been boarded up and have disappeared Kingdom’ over night. I caught up with a local publican and asked him i s t h e some questions about what he feels about the music in culmination Jimbaran and why it seems (with a license to be corny) this of a series was the day the music died. of concerts which were TJB “So why are you no longer running live music here?” held in Publican (Unamed) “ Well there are many reasons, we have Medan, not had the number of people through the door we wanted B a n d u n g , and as a result this has had a knock on effect on what we Jakarta and Surabaya in 2014.

FROM BALI GONG WITH LOVE With humour suf¿ciently ribald to blush the boldest, Bali Gong Show has become an Ubud favourite.

Every Thursday - Thirsty Thursday as Tony calls it – plan to arrive after 7pm, grab a table, order some food and get yourself ready for singing – or audiencing - at 8pm!

Conceived by Montreal comedian Skid More as a place for locals and expats to perform original work, the often outrageous cabaret/ talent show attracts “talented, and deliciously not so talented” singers, dancers, musicians, circus performers, rappers, comedians and video artists … and a delighted audience every time.

Phone 081558886986, or ¿nd Devilicious on Facebook.

Jalan Suweta No. 1, Ubud, Bali (Opposite Puri Saren Palace) Phone / Fax: (0361) 974 217 E : bumbu_bali@yahoo.com www.bumbubaliresto.com C/U/I-03 Sept 14

At previous gigs, Bali Gong Show tackled Child’s Play, Fast Food, Holidays and Enlightenment; this time the pros and the amateurs are standing up for LOVE, with another brazen cast of celebrity judges. Special for the LOVE edition, audience participation Dating Game!! Will the Bali Gong Show oracle ¿nd your true love? Prizes are awarded for Highest Score, Most Original Act, and Best Bad Act. At Betelnut Lounge on Jl Raya Ubud (next door to Casa Luna), Friday March 27 at 8pm. MAN MEET WOMAN MEET SELF Meet Ubud ex-pat Tyezan energy healer, yoga teacher and joyously big-spirited man - whose mission is to help both men and women step ¿rmly and trustingly back into their own selves. He says that while – thank goodness - we’ve finally broken down gender stereotypes, many of us have lost touch with what it truly means to be a man or a woman. And he feels that women and men’s circles don’t help, because each sex bene¿ts from the grounding of the other to heal and grow. So TyeZan and fellow facilitator Maya run intensive workshops, around the world, creating safe spaces where this can happen. From April 12 to 17, 2015, you can join their workshop “Man and Woman - A Sacred Union” and explore how to accept your own female and male qualities as well as those of your counterparts. At Gaia Oasis Beach Resort, Tejakula, on Bali’s north coast; to register or for more information email: natalia.shtompel@yahoo.in. SECRET BAKER The column writer describes the taste of the Àaky pastry, the scent of fresh buttery chocolate ¿lling and the sight of steam rising from the newly baked baguette … but omits any clue as to the shop’s location. Sorry folks, ¿rst time in 28 years of journalism. Daily Baguette’s tiny little shop is on Jl Sri Wedari, opposite the new Hujan Lokal restaurant. THIRSTY WORK Ubud has a history of Open Mike nights and it’s interesting to see how they develop a character of their own, depending on the venue, the owner, the host, the “backing” team (if any) and the mix of amateur and professional performers. The latest is at Devilicious – a long time popular restaurant, recently shifted to Jl Raya Campuhan, just north of Bintang Supermarket. Devilicious owner, Tony, has always been a great host, and he’s belted out a few good rock numbers himself at other places over the years, so this is perfect. There’s at least one percussionist and maybe a guitarist who can back the singers if necessary, and if occasionally the singer gets drowned out by the rain crashing down on the road outside, who cares? It sounds exactly like thunderous applause – perfect practice for life on the road.

KARAOKE 2015 And now you are warmed up for Friday nights and Karaoke circa 2015. At Bintang Warung in Kutuh, we’re talking personal iPads. We download the karaoke version of our fave tunes, bring the iPad to lean on the music stand, and sing with the bouncing ball to a similarly iPad-eqsque audience of young-ish entrepreneurs, yoginis and the like. The two Americans who are sneaking a few quiet weeks to work on a project deadline for an internship program in Shanghai, for example; the Kiwi on a break from Africa, teaching spiritual painting here for a while. And a few golden ex-pats of course.

Kwok has served in a number of senior roles with the ICAC since its formation in 1975 until retirement in 2002 following the 1997 handover to China, and which included an early existential face-off with Hong Kong’s Police Force (HKPF), known in pre-1997 as the Royal Hong Kong Police(RHKP).

The RHKP were in effect old-fashioned thief takers. They kept peace on the streets in association with the triads, delivering up petty criminals, street hawkers and the odd murderer, while directing the traf¿c. Meantime they tolerated and pro¿ted from the drug, gambling and prostitution rackets. In the clean up certain high pro¿le senior expatriate policemen were quickly taken down, but these were small fry. The Station Sergeants were the capos, the chief negotiators and paymasters for the force. Though their power was quickly broken, it took 20 years of relentless pursuit to hunt them down, many of them retiring, wealth intact to Taiwan. That left the problem of the rank and ¿le, not to mention middle rankers. Facing an uncertain future, disgrace and possible prosecution they demanded amnesty.

Kwok, Man Wai (Tony) is a man who has devoted his working life to ¿ghting corruption. He has 39 years experience, including 27 years with the ICAC serving as Deputy Commissioner and Head of Operations over the handover period 1996–2002. This was followed by 12 years as international anti-corruption specialist, advising 25 countries in a total of over 200 missions to governments and international bodies alike. Before concluding his visit last February Mr. Kwok noted the parallels between Hong Kong’s newly formed ICAC of the period 1975-78 and Indonesia’s KPK today. Both anti-corruption organizations faced early threats to their continued existence, posed in each case by the systemic corruption in their respective national police force. He expressed concern for the future of the KPK in the light of recent attempts by the National Police to criminalise the organization. An independent well-supported and well-funded commission was essential to the nation’s efforts to combat corruption. If the KPK were defanged by political interests, currently working toward this end, so as to become an anti-graft ¿g leaf, the situation could deteriorate seriously and a generational opportunity have been lost. Just how apt is the comparison between Hong Kong of the mid-70s and Indonesia today? In both cases a new anti-graft organization faced entrenched and serious corruption in the public and private sectors. Both faced judicial and physical attacks from the police, amounting in effect to police mutiny.

In the case of Hong Kong, a Westminster-appointed Governor had the unequivocal backing of the UK government to clean up Hong Kong. The judiciary though not perfect was mostly clean and the Justice Department, appointed by the Governor, actively supported the clean-up. Though liberal and supportive of human rights, in no sense was Hong Kong then or now a democracy. There are no political parties. It was a polity ruled by a British appointed governor advised by an oligopoly of businessmen and senior civil servants. Before anything could be done about cleaning up the business, municipal and civil service sectors the rankest problem of all, the Hong Kong police had to be tackled.

To get it they mutinied, went on strike and attacked the ICAC of¿ces and its of¿cers. It was the break point. If the situation had been allowed to get out of hand the Gurkhas would have been on the streets and nobody, least of all Westminster, wanted to ¿nd out how China would react to that. If the government folded, then Hong Kong would have sunk into a stew of anarchic corruption with a captive British administration held hostage until China marched in. Pretty much the role the Portuguese in Macau found themselves having to play. A compromise solution had to be found. The most egregious offenders were caught, punished or Àed the city. All but the most serious offenses were forgiven up to the date of amnesty. All future corrupt acts post-amnesty would receive zero tolerance. The ¿x worked and not only has Hong Kong prospered mightily in the interim but the ICAC managed to survive the handover to China intact. How the ICAC and Hong Kong respond to mounting existing and future challenges, however, remains to be seen.

How then do we compare a City State of some 7 million in 1977 to an archipelago nation of some 350 million almost 40 years on? A recently democratized country moreover, with a long history of entrenched corruption, a variety of dynastic and geographical power centres, and numerous political parties, all vying for wealth, power and inÀuence. A good start was made in 2003 with the formation of the KPK and a succession of able of¿cers to run it, racking up an impressive list of prosecutions with an enviable conviction rate approaching 100%. The Commission had enemies right from the outset, seeking to erode its independent powers of investigation and deter efforts to crackdown on graft. Since 2008 the KPK has been subjected to a succession of attacks, arrests and prosecutions of questionable merit aimed to halt investigations into alleged wrongdoing by the National Police. The result has been an unsatisfactory compromise whereby senior KPK leaders have been forced out of the KPK and investigations abandoned. The latest feud between the KPK and the National Police, around the ¿tness of a PDI-P sponsored Police General for the job as nation’s top cop, is further evidence of the Commission’s vulnerability and throws doubt on the future of the country’s ¿ght against corruption. Once again an unhealthy compromise has been devised whereby KPK’s leadership is replaced with more compliant of¿cers and, while the promotion of the Police General named to the top job will not go forward, he departs naming a slew of his associates to senior posts in the National Police. For the battle against systemic corruption in Indonesia to be won, three things must be in place. A President with the determination to effect change, a public who are no longer prepared to accept corruption and an independent commission, such as the KPK, suf¿ciently empowered, politically supported and ¿nanced to pursue the task. It would appear that since 2003, with the formation of the KPK and the growing public revulsion against widespread corruption in public life, that a promising start had been made. What is worrying in the current situation is that while public support for the ¿ght against graft continues to grow, the power of the men and women charged to do the job are being seriously curtailed. Until the wishes of the public are genuinely reÀected in the House of Representatives, as well as the Presidential palace, it is hard to see how progress in the ¿ght against corruption will remain anything but incremental, at best. ©ParacelsusAsia

The Bulé Aga

BA Feature Article

- Part 1 By Ines Wynn

If you were to classify the many expats in Bali according to their standing vis-à-vis Balinese culture and society, 3 groups would come to mind. There are those who have immersed themselves so deeply into Balinese culture, customs and society that they could be considered to “have gone native”. They are the expats who, by virtue of their interests, passions, professional or personal af¿liations, have adapted to the local culture and are well integrated into Balinese society. Many have also become Indonesian citizens and adopted the Hindu religion. Made Wijaya, the inveterate and sardonic chronicler of Balinese society calls them the “Bulé Aga”, the old hand, ingrained expats whose attitudes and demeanor contrast sharply with another group of “superbulés” who have much less reverence and understanding of Balinese culture and traditions. The superbulés, according to Wijaya, are the neocolonials who largely ignore Balinese cultural traditions or consider themselves often inconvenienced by it, regarding it merely as entertainment to trot out to their visiting cohorts. Their neocolonial sense of entitlement governs their dealings with Balinese people and since they figure they are bringing a speck of prosperity to this island by their spending habits, they expect the Balinese to accommodate their expectations and cater to their whims. They have no desire to understand the culture of their hosts and do not deign to learn much Indonesian – let alone Balinese -, just enough to order the pembantu around and bark at the shopkeepers. Fortunately the gap between the Bulé Aga and Superbulés is ¿lled by a 3rd group to which the majority of expats in Bali belong. This group represents the people with respect and acceptance of Balinese culture. Their command of Balinese may be rudimentary but they display various degrees of Àuency in Bahasa Indonesia. They delight in the Balinese culture and customs because they appreciate the uniqueness of it and by and large live their lives to accommodate it. The focus of this article is on the Bulé Aga and their integration into a society and culture so different from their original backgrounds. Aga Ladies ¿rst; gentlemen will take the word in a next edition. Ruc Rucina Ballinger cam to Bali 40 came yea ago on a years sch scholarship from I n d i a n a Un University, USA to study Balinese dance and th theater and its r relationship to r religion. She i KOKAR, the enrolled in High School of performing Arts, and proceeded to absorb as many aspects of Balinese arts, culture, customs and language as she could. She learned Indonesian and Balinese and studied the ancient and traditional dance and theatre, male and female court and temple dances, including Gambuh. After graduating from University she came back on several occasions and ¿nally decided to settle here in 1985. A year later she was married into the Mengwi royal family and there began her true immersion into the K’satria society and family customs and norms. In due time she and her husband produced two sons who were mostly brought up according to Balinese ways. Rucina, who took on the Balinese name of Jero Soka Astita in deference to the origins of her in-law family, thrived in the atmosphere of Balinese society, especially the arts, culture and religion. Due to their professional activities she and her husband lived away from the ancestral compound which suited both of them. Rucina explains she had to make some compromises to function harmoniously within the framework of family and culture, but the one thing she found most dif¿cult to deal with was the lack of privacy and the blurry line of ownership that comes with living in the traditional Balinese family compound. While she loved the family dynamics and the interaction with her many new relatives, she was a little less prepared for the intrusive nature of Balinese family ties. Coming from a country that values individualism, privacy and independence, it was a blessing in disguise, especially as newlyweds, to be able to live apart from the extended family. Asked what she loves best about Balinese culture and society,

she unhesitatingly lists the performing arts, the worldly philosophy of the Balinese, the mystic aspects of the seen and unseen in their religion and her warm acceptance, not only by the Balinese family she married into, but in the larger community. Nevertheless, there were challenges. Since Rucina is vegetarian, the food choices were limited. At the time produce like salad greens and a large variety of vegetables were not available. The other challenge was dealing with the Balinese attitude towards women, though she comments that, as a western woman, she was treated with more deference and respect than her Balinese female relatives. It was this ingrained attitude that prompted Rucina to create Grup Gedebong Goyang (Swaying Banana Trees), an all-female comedy group with 3 other expat women. They entertain Balinese audiences with sketches and jokes including hilarious mother-in-law jokes. Their themes and topics range from Balinese feminism, black magic, politics and corruption to jabs at ingrained customs in Balinese society. In contrast to the traditional all-male oriented theater that deals primarily with male topics, Grup Gedebong Goyang pokes irreverent fun at society through satire, parody and social criticism. The Balinese, with their open minds and accepting attitudes towards foreigners, seem to accept these jabs coming from expat females a bit easier, says Rucina. e Diana Darling, like d Rucina, married into a family off Balinese aristocratss and currently resides with her husband A.A. Alit Ardi in the family compound in Ubud. But contrary to Rucina, Diana ember of the b s loves being a member busy compound. She likes the proximity to other family members; she ¿nds it very soothing and re-assuring, even as she realizes a certain loss of privacy is the compromise she has to make. Diana says privacy is respected in the compound and the family members are very sensitive and accommodating because the ultimate value to the family is harmony in the compound. More of an effort was learning Basa Bali which she considers very dif¿cult. It’s best to have a base in Bahasa Indonesia, says Diana, which has some grammatical similarities. The most dif¿cult thing is mastering the language levels: so that you use the right term depending whom you’re talking to and whom you’re talking about. Balinese themselves are afraid of making errors as it can cause offence if you do make a mistake. It’s safe to learn only the polite level, but much of the richness and humor is in the common level. Though she grew up in New York and lived many years in Europe, she feels her loyalty is to Indonesia, the country that has offered her the opportunity to thrive and come into her own, artistically, spiritually, personally and professionally. Trained as a sculptor in Carrara and Paris in the 1970s, she started carving the local paras stone when she came to Bali in 1980. But for all the richness of Bali’s artistic heritage, especially painting and sculpture, it was the religion and ritual theatre that fascinated her. She began to study everything she could about Bali. “That led me to write”, says Diana, “which was a quicker processing of ideas than carving stone. The day I wrote the ¿rst page of my novel The Painted Alphabet, I knew that this is the way I wanted to work.” Diana converted to Hinduism when she married Agung, as required by law. She describes her religion as “Hindu lite”. She says, “Bali’s religion is undergoing changes, but it is very supple: it can be demanding, if you’re into that sort of thing; or you can go for the basic nectar, which is reverence for the tangible and intangible worlds and dealing with things as they are.” Sita van Bemmelen hails from the Netherlands. She is a gender and development consultant, historian, editor and published author with a keen interest in women’s issues. She is also named after the main female character in the Ramayana epos which perhaps destined her to marry a Hindu from Bali. She met her husband, Ida Bagus Oka Sumarjaya Pidada, in The Hague where he worked as an accountant. They were

married in Bali in 1988 and Sita became a member of her husband’s extended Brahman family of Klungkung. As a feminist she found that Bali presented a fertile study ground and she quickly got engrossed in observing Balinese conventions and customs, especially as they pertain to women. A keen observer of her adopted society, Sita has noted a certain mellowing over the years in Balinese attitudes toward conventions, taboos and the way they treat their women. She is happyy that occasionallyy she has been able to help out f e m a l e relatives in distress and together with her husband is now in a position to challenge anchored Sita and her beautiful family conventions in an unobtrusive way. As a secular humanist, Sita readily admits that her lack of religious fervor posed a challenge when dealing with her Balinese family-in-law. It perplexes her that Hinduism, as it is practiced by most Balinese, places little importance on religious understanding but puts the most stress on the observance of rituals like preparing offerings, which consumes a huge amount of time and the relatively strict gender division of labor in the context of preparing and performing ceremonies. On the other hand, says Sita, life cycle ceremonies are great social events providing an excellent opportunity to catch up with relatives and be drawn into the hubbub of Balinese life. “I also have come to appreciate the importance the Balinese place on the care for the elder family members and the ritual way of dealing with death.” Sita’s background as an expert on gender issues led her to become very involved in various government and nongovernment organizations in Bali dealing with women’s empowerment issues like Bali Sruti, the legal aid of¿ce for women LBH-APIK, Lengis Hijau, and BIWA. The expats ensconced in Balinese culture have, for the most part, married local Balinese. Yet there are a few people who do not claim their allegiance to Bali through marriage. Hedi Hinzler is a Dutch scholar who has studied Balinese culture for over 50 years. She has written and co-authored a number of books on Balinese art and literature and is involved in the B a l i n e s e Manuscript P Project, currently ccompiling ancient ttexts and oral liliterature dealing with local sstorytelling. Her rresearch dates back to 1972 w when she was ¿rst sent to Bali by Leiden University where she worked as research assistant at the Kern Institute. Hedi studied Sanskrit, old Javanese and Balinese under the tutelage of C. Hooykaas, an eminent authority on old Balinese literature. She was installed at the royal palace in Kerambitan, Tabanan, where the royal family, friends of Hooykaas, welcomed her with open arms and provided a rich cultural backdrop for her research. Over the years, Hedi has painstakingly compiled 650 different ancient texts dealing with popular folktales. She goes around to the villages collecting stories as told in wayang performances or as remembered by the elders. Though her of¿cial residence is in the Netherlands, she spends a majority of her time in Bali related to her work and has her feet planted in both cultures. Thanks to her adopted family in Kerambitan, she has become steeped in Balinese culture. When asked what she most appreciates about it, she unerringly answers that she loves the non-dogmatic morality of the Balinese.

Local News Presidents Son & Jakarta Governor Speak Against Death Penalty

Indonesian President Joko Widodo’s son, Gibran Rakabuming Raka, has begged his father to spare the lives of Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran. It is little known that Gibran, who turns 28 in October, is a 2010 graduate of the University of Technology, Sydney. Former fellow students, including Indonesian nationals and close friends living in Australia asked Gibran, the eldest of Widodo’s three children, to approach his father and implore him to reconsider his legally flawed blanket refusal to grant clemency to the “Bali Two” and the rest of the estimated 133 inmates on death row destined for execution. Independent Australia understands that despite his father’s public belligerence in favor of the death sentence for drug traffickers, Gibran remains ideologically and morally opposed to capital punishment and has already had several emotional arguments with the President over this contentious issue, which we are told has caused a split within the family. It is believed that Iriana, the President’s wife, who is a former leader of the nationwide women’s movement Pembinaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga, better known as the PKK, shares her son’s views. Jakarta Governor and Mr. Widodo’s close ally, Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, said he believed drug smugglers who have reformed themselves in prison, like Chan and

Sukuraman, should be handed a life sentence instead of death. ‘If people want to change, give them a chance to live. Maybe he can make other people more aware instead of punishing him with death.’ Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi has appealed to Indonesian president Joko Widodo to spare the lives of the two Australians who were sentenced to death in 2006 for trying to smuggle heroin out of Indonesia. Virgin founder Sir Richard Branson says he wants to speak to Indonesian President Joko Widodo in an effort to save those facing the death penalty in the Southeast Asian country. The Virgin founder, who’s also a member of the Global Commission on Drug Policy, said he was willing to go to Indonesia in an effort to save those facing execution. “What we would love to do is speak with the president of Indonesia and try to give them a way forward, a positive way forward for its country,” the British entrepreneur told the ABC on Wednesday morning. “We have written to the president saying if he will have us we would love to come and talk ... we want to be as constructive as possible. “All we’re saying is there is a better approach.” (March 9th 2015)

UN Narcotics Agency Calling for Abolition of Death Penalty A new report by the International Narcotics Control Board, or INCB, has called on all countries to abolish the death penalty for drug-related crimes.

highlighted at next week’s CND meeting, following a highly publicized flurry of executions in Indonesia, many of which involve foreign nationals such as Chan and Sukumaran.

In the INCB’s annual report, which was published on Tuesday (3/3/15), board members encourage all “states that retain and continue to impose the death penalty for drug-related offenses to consider abolishing the death penalty.”

Indonesia’s policy of executing drug traffickers has provoked international condemnation from both human rights campaigners and foreign governments who believe capital punishment is an inhumane and ineffective way of combating drug crime.

The INCB is an independent United Nations supervisory body, tasked with monitoring member states to ensure compliance with international drug treaties.

In January, Joko’s decision to execute a Dutchman and a Brazilian national sparked a diplomatic crisis in which the Netherlands and Brazil recalled their ambassadors from Jakarta.

Established in 1961, the INCB is made up of 13 elected representatives with expertise in either medicine or pharmacology, who are chosen once every five years by the UN’s Economic and Social Council. The release of the INCB’s latest report comes just days before the administration of President Joko Widodo is scheduled to execute 10 drug traffickers on Nusakambangan prison island. Among the convicts slated for execution are Australian citizens Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran, who arrived on the island under military escort on Wednesday (4/3) morning. The INCB’s report also coincides with the 58th annual meeting of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), which is scheduled to take place in Vienna next week. The commission is made up of 53 representatives from a cross section of member states, and is tasked with considering new policy measures on international drug control. The issue of capital punishment is expected to be

Another Brazilian and one French national are now among the 10 drug convicts scheduled for execution this month, with both governments threatening diplomatic sanctions should the executions go ahead. Tensions between Indonesia and its close neighbor Australia are also set to escalate, after numerous requests to spare the lives of Chan and Sukumaran were rejected by Indonesia’s attorney general, H.M. Prasetyo. Australian Foreign Minister Julia Bishop attempted an eleventh-hour prisoner swap to spare Chan and Sukumaran from the firing squad, but this too, was flatly rejected. A coalition of 11 human-rights groups and drug-policy think-tanks have also weighed in on Joko’s execution policy. The impact of any such outside pressure remains in doubt, however, given that President Joko’s mantra of “no compromise” has proved to be immensely popular among conservative voters. (March 6th 2015)

5-Years Sought for Russian Shoplifter Denpasar District Court prosecutors are seeking a five-year sentence for a Russian woman who has been accused of shoplifting from a Beachwalk mall store. The 31-year old woman is accused of stealing a camera bag, worth Rp. 3.9 million, from Travelogue on December 30, 2014. The woman allegedly took the bag from the store and fled, but was pursued and eventually caught by Travelogue staff member and Beachwalk Mall security guards. “The defendant has unlawfully taken other people’s belongings in the form of a camera bag with the intent to keep it. This is punishable by a sentence of up to five years in prison” explained Attorney General Maulia. (March 3rd 2015) Bangli Woman Dies Of Rabies A 32-year-old woman has died after being bitten by a wild dog in December, which was reportedly infected with Rabies. I Nengah Merta of Bangli refused treatment immediately after the bite. On Monday (2/3) Merta experienced a seizure and continually asked for water to wash her face. Family members rushed Merta to the local hospital in Bangli following the seizure where nurses were suspicious that she had contracted rabies due to her erratic behavior. Merta was then rushed to Sanglah where at 6 pm she was pronounced dead. According to the Head of Disease Control in Bali’s Provincial Health Office, Dr. Gede Wira Sunetra, a saliva test confirmed the rabies contraction. (March 6th 2015) Wife of Frenchman on Indonesia Death Row Clings to hope The wife of a Frenchman on death row in Indonesia says she refuses to believe she has seen him for the last time, as fears grow he will soon be executed with a group of foreigners. Serge Atlaoui has been detained on Indonesia’s notorious Nusakambangan prison island in Central Java since he was sentenced to death in 2007 on drugs charges. The Frenchman, 51, had his appeal for clemency rejected in January by President Joko Widodo, a vocal supporter of capital punishment for drug offenders. Atlaoui’s wife Sabine visited him in prison this week and refused to believe it will be her last, as she pins all her hope on a legal challenge for a stay of execution. Atlaoui, a father of four, was arrested near Jakarta in 2005 in a secret laboratory producing ecstasy. Imprisoned in Indonesia for ten years, he has always denied the charges saying he was installing industrial machinery in what he thought was an acrylics factory. When the family was reunited this week — including three of Atlaoui’s four children and two siblings who had never before visited him in prison - she said everyone put those thoughts aside momentarily. “The atmosphere was really intense, there was laughter, feelings were so strong we could forget everything that was around us,” she said. “Suddenly when we went through the exit … we came back to the reality of the prison world. It’s still hard for me to believe.” (March 6th 2015) Australians Unlikely to Boycott Bali’s Tourism A call to boycott Bali will not significantly affect Australian visitors. A number of Australian tourists visiting Bali have expressed their disagreement to the tourism boycott, which is a mark of protest over the imminent executions of Bali Nine ringleaders, Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan. The call was linked with Indonesia’s plan to execute two Australians on death row for a drug offense. But it seems that many Australians would continue to visit Bali. According to Ardana, Australian tourists considered Bali as a second home since the island is located close to the country. Responding to the Australian governments reaction, Ardana stated that the Australian government wants to protect its citizens. The Australian government has urged Indonesia to cancel the execution of its two citizens. It even offered an exchange of prisoners. The plan to execute the two Australian nationals has led Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott to warn Indonesia. He was quoted as saying by ABC that his government “will find ways to make its displeasure known if the executions are carried out.” The governor of Bali believes that the increasing tensions in the relations between Indonesia and Australia due to the planned execution of two Australian convicts will not significantly affect tourism on the island.

‘Put a Bullet in Head’: Bali Nine Martin Stephens Loses Hope As the executions of Bali Nine masterminds Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukuraman loom, fellow convicted drug smuggler Martin Stephens loses hope for a second chance at life. Stephens was one of the nine Australians who were imprisoned in Indonesia after trying to smuggle 8.3 kilograms of heroin from Bali to Australia. The 39-year-old has been sentenced to life and was moved from Kerobokan prison to Malang in East Java. Martin Stephens has penned a letter begging Indonesian president Joko Widodo to spare the lives of Bali Nine duo. In 2011, Stephens married Christine Puspayanti - a Javanese woman - who he met for the first time while at Kerobokan prison. She was visiting with a church group while Stephens was serving out his sentence in the Bali jail. Stephens also shares how he has forgiven Chan for his hand in getting him involved in the plot, but would never forget where the blame lay. Ms Puspayanti - who has a daughter from a previous relationship - said she was lonely without her husband at home with her. ‘My daughter and I would at least like to know when Martin might come home,’ she told News Corp. (March 6th 2015) Man’s Genitals Struck By Lightning 27-year-old Pupuan local Gede Artata was struck by lightning on Saturday (28/2) during a thunder-storm. According to an eye-witness Artata was struck on the genital area causing him to collapse. He suffered severe burns from the pelvis up to the neck. Artata was immediately rushed to the nearby Tabanan Hospital and upon arrival was in a stable condition. Artata had apparently parked his bike outside a local convenience store in the village of Kesiut to purchase rice. Before he went into the store he found a tree to urinate under where the freak accident occurred. (March 2nd 2014) Australian Man Contracts Japanese Encephalitis Australian man Mark Schroeder, 45, was infected with the rare and deadly Japanese encephalitis after spending seven days in rural Bali in January of this year. Fatal in up to 30 per cent of cases and causing long-term brain damage in half of those infected, it attacked the areas of Mr. Schroeder’s brain involved in short-term memory. Doctors don’t know when, or if, he will fully recover. Almost unheard of in Australia, the virus can be transmitted only by a rare type of mosquito which must have bitten a pig that was carrying the virus. (March 3rd 2015) AirAsia Doubles Bangkok-Bali Flights AirAsia has doubled the number of weekly flights between Bangkok and Bali, with the airline now operating fourteen weekly flights between the two destinations. AirAsia had previously operated daily return flights between Bangkok and Bali, but the airline announced last week that, starting from Friday, March 6, the route would be flown twice daily. President-Director of AirAsia Indonesia, Sunu Widiyatmoko, said in a press release that the new daily flight was added to accommodate increased demand for BangkokBali travel. “We are pleased to be able to add frequencies on this route, thus giving our passengers more choice with a flexible flight schedule,” said Sunu. “The additional flight frequency is part of our commitment to improve the connectivity between Indonesia and Thailand, given that these two countries are the two most popular tourist destinations in Southeast Asia,” he explained.

The Rewrite It has been sometime since Hugh Grant has appeared in a comedy. But, he is back now, with a big hit on his hands. In Marc Lawrence’s funny movie, Hugh Grant plays a once successful Hollywood screenwriter, who now finds himself unemployed. To make ends meet, he takes on a job as a writing teacher in a prestigious college. Still, having no real experience as a teacher, in his bemused and debonair way, Hugh just goes from one disastrous incident to another. This doesn’t sound like much of a plot, but, it’s all in the playing. Hugh is in great charming form, as he delivers his witty remarks and asides. In her own laid-back way, Marisa Tomei provides good support as a mature-age student, wanting to write a screenplay about her boring life. I Am Here Following one miscarriage after another, a woman has to come to terms with the fact that she is unable to bear children to the full term. She considers adoption, yet, when she approaches her husband on the subject, he is not interested. He would prefer that they remain childless. However, when the woman hears about a small town where prostitutes are willing to sell their unwanted babies, she decides to journey there and purchase one. On the way, she picks up a hitchhiker, who she hopes can help her locate a brothel. Director Anders Morgenthaler uses some remarkable cinema photographic effects to highlight the woman’s tenuous emotional state, and, the rapidly increasing tensions of the situation she finds herself involved in. Kim Bassinger gives one of the best performances of her long and erratic career.

Tabanan Start Up Kit: Part I Why are 95% of Bali’s expats concentrated in crowded traf¿cchoked south Bali with all its noise pollution and high cost of living? Just a 30-minute drive on the coastal road from Canggu, the Tabanan Regency is by far Bali’s richest agricultural region and the second largest district after Buleleng. The region has cleaner air and – depending on what the goods or services – the living costs are 30% to 70% cheaper than the capital and the rest of southern Bali. My M Indonesian family and a I have lived for 15 years in Penatahan in y the hills 25 minutes t north n of the regency’s capital. Both of our kids c have attended school in h Sanggulan, a suburb of S Ta T banan. With its unspoilt u surroundings and friendly people, we have found Tabanan an attractive and easy-going place to live. Traveling the densely packed, 4-km-long commercial strip along the main east-west Bypass road to the port town of Gilimanuk, most people pass through without even realizing that there’s also an “old” city inland, a downtown area with its own distinctive character and sense of place. Though Tabanan is still Bali, you’d never know it by the way Westerners ignore this beautiful district, as if it was located on another island. Foreigners are so rare that whenever we see one from our car we shout, “Hey, there’s a bule!” Occasionally visitors are spotted on day trips from the tourist centers on Tabanan’s south coast around Tanah Lot, wandering the downtown area in small tight groups with their Balinese guide, or shopping at Hardy’s on Jl. Bypass, the city’s only mall and one-stop supermarket. A cultural center, the city is home to the highly regarded Sekolah Saraswati with an emphasis on the arts. Gedung Mario concert hall is the performing arts center named after Tabanan’s most famous native son, I Ketut Mario (1897-1968) a master of the seated style of dancing known as Kebyar Duduk. Regular performances of gamelan and dance are held here. T banan’s Subak Ta M Museum masterfully d displays information on th history and methods the of rice cultivation. L Located on a bucolic 4-ha p of land in Sanggulan, plot the indoor-outdoor m museum has a huge ex exhibition hall, an audiovisual room, a Balinese traditional compound and rice ¿elds. Puri Anom, the original main palace, was built during Tabanan’s classical period from in the 17th to 20th centuries. The modest street side entrance opens up to a large courtyard shaded by a giant waringan tree and temples. Within the palace’s high walls, the gradually sloping royal precinct consists of a series of squaredoff, sancti¿ed enclosures– a peaceful maze of gates, alleyways, gardens, family chapels, pavilions and ornate traditional residences. Don’t miss the old style rice storage shed (jineng) and exquisite collection of antique plates. A well stocked library, Kantor Perpustakaan (Jl. Pahlawan 19, is within the government complex (Kantor Bupati or PEMDA) with some bi-lingual kids books, friendly ladies, reading tables. Cool off at the Kolam Renang Guna Tirta Swimming Pool, Jl. Bypass, Kediri. Entrance Rp7000 adult, Rp6000 children. The big pool measures 25 m X 15, kids pool 12 m X 8 m. Even on religious holidays the pools are half-empty. Living Costs The district hits all the buttons as to what de¿nes an ideal place to live. Because businesses cater to domestic consumers, the cost of living is much lower than in Bali’s more developed areas. Although Badung Regency is wealthier and more populous, the 840-sq-km Tabanan district is the “rice granary of Bali,” an allimportant source of the island’s water as well as a center for chicken and egg production. Excellent industrial-strength coffee for only Rp35,000 to Rp40,000 per kg is grown in the mountain areas. The city is not a provincial backwater but offers all the basic services as can be found in any of Bali’s large urban centers: tourist of¿ce, brand new post of¿ce with P.O. boxes, TIKI and Elteha courier service, a rambling used clothes market, an authentic Javanese neighborhood (Kampung Jawa) and a lively two-block long night market along Jl. Gajah Mada. Kimia Farma

in Kediri is the best-stocked pharmacy, open 24 hours with delivery service.

empek-empek to full Balinese, Chinese, Sundanese, Javanese and Madurese meals.

Join one of several gyms (unlimited monthly memberships Rp35,000 to Rp50,000). Internet cafes charge Rp5000 per hour, car washes Rp45,000 (with anti-rust treatment), haircuts Rp10,000, salon facials Rp20,000 (in Denpasar Rp55,000 and up), laundry Rp1,000 per 12 pieces. Inexpensive wooden furniture is available at Seruni (Jl. Gaja Mada on same side as BCA). Handicraft and furniture factories are found in the outskirts of the city.

Several bakeries are e located in the old city. Coneto, in front of the public market, is a relaxing place to h a v e c o ff e e a n d pastry. Indonesianstyle bakeries, Hakiky and Holland Bakery are on Jl. A. Yani in Kediri, but don’t expect European quality bread. Hip p coffee shops include D’Sonic Resto on Jl. Gunung Agung north of Puri Anom and Dunkin’ Donuts in Kediri. Waroeng Ampik on Jl. Bypass is a relaxing place for lunch.

Another reason why Tabanan quali¿es as an alternative place to live for the island’s 30,000 strong expat population is the city’s health care system. Rumah Sakit Tabanan is a very reasonably priced full service public hospital with 24-hour emergency. Kasih Ibu Tabanan (Jl. Flamboyan 9, tel 361-300-5757) and Private Wing Nyitdah south of the city in Pejatan are both highly regarded private hospitals. Professional rates are low, whether it be for a car mechanic, architect, notary, upholsterer, well digger, garment designer or Balian traditional healer. Doctors are much cheaper and just as competent as those in more developed south Bali. A number work at Sanglah in Denpasar and receive patients at their home of¿ces in Tabanan in the late afternoons. Dentist cost only Rp250,000 per visit as compared to Rp400,000-Rp500,000 in Denpasar. Blind massage therapists Pak Wayan and Bu Kadek (mobile 085-238-464-890) charge only Rp50,000 for 1.5 hour session. Professional bidan (midwife) run only Rp25,000-Rp50,000 per visit (with medicine!). Because of very af affordable long-term le leases, it has always b been a puzzle to me w more Westerners why a aren’t drawn to this city ju an hour’s drive just w west of Denpasar. Ample housing is a available both in the c and in the greener city outskirts. A 2 -3 bed bedroom house within walking or bicycling distance from downtown can be contracted for Rp10 million per year, larger houses from Rp15 to R20 million. Land costs in the countryside run Rp10-Rp15 million per are. Stay and Eat Avoid penginapan which tend to be “love” hotels or are too grotty. The best accommodations is Hotel Taman Rai (Jl. Darmawangsa 15, tel. 0361-811-708) on a back street 5 minutes walk to the east from the Bupati’s of¿ces; tariffs Rp100,000 standard, Rp150,000 family, Rp200,000 for the Suite. Hotel Tabanan, on Jl. Pahlawan 10 just to the east on the same side of the street as the main hospital; Ekonomi rooms Rp35,000, VIP rooms Rp85,000. Other places to say are Hotel Taruna Jaya (Jl. Darmawangsa 1, tel. 0361-813-316) and Hotel Vista near Persiapan Market. No Pizza Huts, KFC’s or MacDonald’s or upmarket Western restaurants, but an abundance of small outstanding rumah makan serving full meals for between Rp10,000 and Rp15,000. The best dish on the menu at unpretentious Warung Kenanga, on Jl. Melati just ¿ve minutes walk south of Pasar Tabanan, is the nasi cap cay (Rp12,000). The town’s ABGs (teens) like to hangout in the half dozen greasy spoon fried chicken places. Resto Tabanan, Jl. Kaswari 1 (5 minutes walk west of downtown) is popular for its open-air terrace restaurant overlooking the street. Warung Sepek south of Tabanan’s public pasar on Jl. Mawar serves delicious fish soup and fresh leafy greens for only Rp14,000. Complete plecing ikan dinners can be enjoyed at Annam-B, a fancier sit down grilled ¿sh restaurant on Jl. Bypass. The liveliest place in town is the city’s pasar senggol that takes every day of the week. Sunday night is the most crowded and has the most vendors. A Àurry of smoking woks and din, here you can take out the whole family to dine along a 500-meter-stretch of outdoor cafes that serve everything from appetizers, desserts, bakso and mie soups, sate, martabak, roti bakar bandung and

Shopping You name it, Tabanan’s got it: luggage, music, watches, copy center (Toko Wahyusari, Jl. Gajah Mada), big sports shop (Kawan Sport, 2nd Àoor, Jl. Gajah Mada 2), framing, key makers, books, photo printing (Mercy downtown and Kediri), mobile phones, of¿ce supply, hardware, electronic repair. Best computer shop is Mediatek Computer on Jl. Bypass opposite the gas station near the Grogok intersection. At the newspaper and magazine kiosk beside Pasar Tabanan, English language papers can be ordered. Asia Jaya on Jl. Bypass is one of the largest bicycle stores on Bali. Sekon on Jl. Bypass sells used furniture and kitchen/ restaurant equipment. At the night market on Jl. Gajah Mada are several hundred cheap toy, electronics, clothes and household goods stalls. Vendors blast jawa pop, religious music, dance and dangdut CDs. Besides convenientt Pasar Tabanan in the city center, there’s a huge rambling genuine Javanese market in the neighboring community of Kediri 2 km to the east, which sells fresh fruit, vegetables, ¿sh and d meat and household goods at even cheaper prices. Get even better prices if you speak Javanese or send your Javanese maid to do the shopping. Other municipality markets include the Dauh Pala wholesale market in the southwest part of town where cooks from all over Bali arrive starting at 3 a.m. to buy ¿sh, meat and fresh produce. Persiapan fresh produce market, on the west side of the bus terminal, is handy for those who want to shop in the afternoons. Bringkit in nearby Mengwi, open 6 am -2 pm every Sunday and Wednesday, is Bali’s largest farmer’s market for livestock, tools, farming and gardening supplies. Bumi Mas (with a branch downtown) and other electronic stores on Jl. Bypass are dramatically less expensive than their counterparts in Denpasar because Tabanan is a closer to the source. Goods are dropped off on the way from Java to Denpasar. People from Denpasar even do their shopping for big-ticket items like plasma TVs and refrigerators. For one-stop shopping, though not as cheap as Pasar Tabanan or Pasar Kediri, but fast and central, the two-story Hardy’s Mal on the main road Jl. Bypass has a big supermarket plus separate computer, cosmetics, mattress, of¿ce and school supplies stores plus a whole row of ATMs. Pasar Kodok (“Frog Market”) is a big open-air market on both sides of Jl. OB (Obral) selling generally high quality used clothing at extremely reasonable prices. Open everyday 9 am-5 pm. Parking Rp2000. Nyoman is a large two-story textile outlet in Kediri opposite Pasar Kediri with ¿xed but very good prices. Note: Part II will cover the attractions in the rest of Tabanan Regency.
