Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit

For sale

By Michele Cempaka

The Art of Bonsai Bonsais have become a household name to many throughout the world. The art of m a k i n g miniature trees is what inspires Dewa JJ, who has been working with Bonsais since 1998. He has a deep connection with trees and plants which drew him to learning about bonsais. These trees take many years to cultivate before they are completely balanced in form and structure. In the beginning, Dewa JJ would go on little expeditions down south to ¿nd trees that were suitable to make into bonsais. He hiked down the cliffs in the arid Uluwatu and Nusa Dua regions in search for ancient trees called kayu shakti (power wood) which were quite rare and are now protected by the government. JJ began learning how to train these trees with other friends who were also bonsai enthusiasts. This very popular tree is called Santigi In Bahasa Indonesian. Their appearance is quite unusual, as they have twisted white bark which is quite hard, and very thick and small leaves that stay on the tree for a few months. Many people believe that the kayu shakti tree can neutralize negative energy and protect the home. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why they are highly sought after throughout Indonesia? “The more I learn the more I need to know. I really enjoy learning how to create bonsais, because it takes a lot of skill. It’s like a living artwork. Many people don’t realize how long it takes to create a bonsai, so when they ¿nd out the price they are surprised,” said Dewa JJ. Dewa JJ feels that the bonsais have a special energy – a kind of consciousness. He works with energy so he can feel this. “I often feel a sense of peace when I enter my bonsai garden where I enjoy meditating. If there’s something wrong with one of my bonsais, I can feel it. It’s my responsibility to care for the bonsais so that they can return to their optimal health and Àourish.”

bonsai plants will require different soil. Do some research on your particular kind of plant, or ask a bonsai specialist. Make sure you pick the proper soil, and fertilizer if your tree requires it.

Dinner area with kitchen and a 7x16 meters swimming pool. A 50 are property at only 300 meter from the beach and 500 meters from Pemuteran center. Garden is amazing and you can enjoy a beautiful mountain view from anywhere on the property. Business is operational for the last two years. Lease left on the land is for 21 years. Starting price is 420.000 euros.

Proper Pot A bonsai tree will not be healthy or grow well if the pot is not the proper size. As a general rule, the width of the pot should be 1/3 of the height of the tree and the depth of the pot should be about the same height as the trunk of the tree. Your tree will need to be repotted to a larger pot annually if it is growing properly.

Proper Climate The proper climate is necessary to keep your tree healthy. Bonsais require a lot of sun. Never place your plant in the direct Àow of an air conditioner, this will cause it to dry out very quickly. Trimming

● ●

Trimming is very important for your bonsai so it can grow correctly into the desired shape. Leaves and branches can be trimmed off to help the plant grow the way you want it to. Take care while trimming your tree, because if the wrong leaf or branch is trimmed, the shape of the tree can be altered severely. It is best to use sharp scissors to avoid causing damage to the tree. Sharp tools will make a clean cut and leave the tree healthy.

Training To train bonsais, you need to use wire to control the way the branches bend, following the natural way that the bonsai grows in the wild. This takes a great deal of skill and patience. Even so, Dewa JJ says that everyone can create a bonsai as long as they are willing to take care of their bonsai tree and learn from books or other bonsai owners. “It’s really a lot of fun. It gives you peace – it’s a kind of meditation. I think it’s very easy to spend your time with bonsais especially if you’re really into them. You’ll never get bored.” In December, there will be a national exhibition in Klung Kung with many people exhibiting their bonsai trees from Bali, Java and other parts of Indonesia. C/G/G-8 July 15

Bonsais do take a lot of time and attention, so if you are considering whether to become a bonsai owner you will need to know how to care for it.

Aka Bonsai Nursery is owned and operated by Dewa JJ in Desa Aka, Klung Kung. If you would like to get more information about his trees and the upcoming exhibition, please email: dewajjmiarsa@gmail.com

Here are some tips for caring for bonsai trees: Proper Watering Bali is a tropical environment which gets quite hot during the day, so it is important to water the bonsais at least twice a day. Even during the rainy season it’s a good idea to spray bonsais with fresh water because of the acid rain. In order to be healthy and strong, bonsai trees must be watered properly. Bonsai soil should never remain soaking wet all day, but it should not be dry and crumbly either. Proper Soil The soil is what provides the tree with the nutrients it needs, so picking the proper soil is essential. Different species of

Canggu Club Play Host to AJFC for 2nd Year Running

If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you!

Throughout the world, football is something that seems to matter, a lot, to many people! You merely have to watch a match on TV, go to a game or simply stroll along the beach of a Sunday to witness the emotion, loyalty and excitement it evokes from those who live for the game.

Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.

Allianz understands this and as such, has been an avid supporter of football for many years, recognising the passion they see that comes from the sport. It was with this in mind (along with their Platinum Partnership with the Munich Football Club) when they created the Allianz Junior Football Camp in 2009 to develop ‘football youth engagement’. After several successful years along with the massive growth in popularity of football among youth across Asia, Allianz commenced an Asian Football Camp in 2013 to provide an opportunity for more teens from ages 14 to 16 years to have the chance to participate. Now in its third year, Canggu Club recently hosted the Allianz Junior Football Camp for the second time from July 28th - 31st. 32 teens hailing from Indonesia, Taiwan, Malaysia, South Korea and Thailand were scouted and selected from thousands of hopefuls across Asia for the opportunity to participate in the three day camp led by Munich Football Club coach, Timon Pauls. After a successful camp at Canggu Club in 2014, organisers were more than happy to return this year to take advantage of the facilities, quality training support staff and securely fenced and manicured Sports Field Canggu Club has

Education for Everyone at ProEd Plus Having a child who was recently diagnosed with learning difficulties and about to embark on her adventure into high school life, I am a little anxious as to how she will cope with an inﬂux of new subject areas and the pressure of a heavier load of homework. As with many students, especially those who struggle academically, high school can be a daunting and difficult experience so it is comforting to know that ProEducation is there to help them along what might otherwise become a bumpy ride. Committed to supporting student needs beyond the classroom, the professionally trained and accredited staff at ProEducation understand that every learner is different and their aim is to assist students’ individual needs academically and socially via quality tuition and access to international resources in order to support student based learning programs.

It was the ideal location to host their three day intensive football clinic. On the first day of their football adventure the talented teens, many of whom were experiencing their first overseas adventure, enjoyed some introductory exercises on the beach, getting to know their team members from various countries as well as a welcome dinner. Day two and three involved some intensive skills and game training at Canggu Club along with an opportunity to enjoy Bali’s diverse culture and stunning geography with a visit to local temples and the beach! On the final day, prizes were awarded to the winning team of the tournament from the day before as well as the

of the conventional classroom situation. ProEd Plus provides these young people with a diverse variety of learning experiences and educational goals through professionally developed learning pathways based on careful assessment of each individual. Students attend classes daily in a less formal environment with the opportunity to work around a more ﬂexible timetable. Class sizes are small (maximum of 12 students) providing an optimal teacher to student ratio, ensuring more personalised and effective learner focused tuition. Courses are developed around each student’s needs and skills base and include core subjects of English, Math and PSHE alongside the options of distance learning and electives.

Due to expansion and their continuing quest to provide improved services and facilities for their students, ProEd recently relocated to their new, larger premises on Jalan Raya Semer in Kerobokan. In addition to their well established programs at the Learning Centre, ProEd have also implemented an exciting new program aimed at 13 - 19 year olds called ProEd Plus!

Llana Reece and her ProEd Plus team have certainly been busy during the last six months, already chalking up an impressive list of achievements! Fully accredited by international awarding bodies such as ASDAN they have secured a professional lineup of internationally qualiﬁed and experienced tutors, trainers and counsellors in an effort to provide functional skills training, furnishing students with improved abilities in literacy and numeracy. ProEd Plus has helped rekindle students’ enjoyment for learning by incorporating practical, fun and realistic experiences in and out of the classroom, such as ﬁlm making workshops, cooking classes and environmental projects, serving to promote strong community networks and boost vocational training opportunities.

Whether it be due to learning difficulties, social, emotional or behavioural issues, some students just don’t ﬁt the mould

And they have no plans to pull up there! Due to a high demand for student places, ProEd Plus will be expanding

A coveted spot in the Munich Camp afforded team members the opportunity to train with Munich Football Club, meet the soccer stars in person as well as a behind the scenes tour of the of the club and the Allianz Arena and of course, a six day trip to Germany! Camps such as the one in Munich and the Asian Junior Football Camp held at Canggu Club serve not only to inspire and develop sporting talents but also provide a glimpse into the professional world of football.

The team at ProEd Plus understand that no two people learn the same way and that some students simply do not function effectively in a formal academic environment. It is with this idea in mind that ProEd aim to develop educational programs for individuals, enabling skill development and boosting essential life skills such as self esteem, conﬁdence and social responsibility and decision making. Whether your child requires a little additional support outside the classroom or a more personalised approach to learning, contact ProEducation today to meet with their friendly team and set your learner on a positive path to success!

From Little Things Big Things Grow

needs to sustain his business for two months plus just a little bit more. Solemen have also helped Wayan to kick start his knife making trade by introducing partnerships who are interested in Wayan’s artisanal skills.

Many of us enjoy a warm and secure existence surrounded by creature comforts and material excesses, most of which we don’t really require. It’s not that this necessarily makes us awful people but from time to time, some of us need a humbling reminder to take stock of what we’ve got and simply pay it forward on occasion.

Wayan and his young family should also receive a new house covered under Governor Pastika’s housing scheme. Solemen will also be sponsoring Wayan’s children in order to assist with their education in the future.

Recently, Solemen Indonesia met a young family living in a small town of Bangli. The family unit consists of two young daughters and a newborn baby. So impoverished, they weren’t even able to afford any plastic to cover the holes in their shack (one room about the size of a standard Western bathroom) to stop the rain from pouring onto the newborn baby’s head. The husband Wayan has a small knife making business. His knives are special and good quality however he was not able to expand on his business due to his position in life. In order to have a successful business and provide for his family he needed a motorbike to take himself to the market to sell and to get around so he could approach people. Like many of the people Solemen meet, life dealt this beautiful and humble family unfairly.

Heartwarming success stories like these really make everything worthwhile. The way people pulled together to help this family was truly inspiring. Unity can be such a beautiful thing!

Wayan is such a proud man. He knows what he needs and what he does not, thus after careful consideration, he accepted only some of what Solemen was offering and politely declined the rest. He didn’t want handouts, just a simple stepping stone in the right direction. Solemen respected Wayan’s wishes and held a fundraiser to the value of AUD $2,000. Monies were successfully raised at $2,440 within a week and a half, enabling Wayan to purchase a second hand motorbike and equipment he

finished their final training dive together with Pak Wayan – AquaMarine’s Director of Diving Operations - and only need to wait for the postal services to deliver their long-awaited PADI Divemaster certification cards and their much coveted PADI Member Numbers. Once you have your PADI number, you join the family of PADI Dive Professionals.

Now what exactly is a Divemaster and what does he or she do? The PADI Divemaster level is the first of many professional levels a diver can obtain. During their training they work closely with a PADI Instructor; fine-tuning their dive skills, like perfecting the effortless hover, and refining their rescue skills so they can anticipate and easily solve common problems in and out of the water. They gain dive knowledge, management and supervisory abilities so they can finally become role models to divers everywhere in the world. As a PADI Divemaster, you’ll lead others as you supervise scuba diving activities and assist with diver training. Whether you want to work at a faraway dive destination or close to home at a local dive shop, it is the adventure of a lifetime. For Gracia, being a dive master is being able to make a living out of her passion! PADI Divemasters are respected dive professionals who are aligned with the largest and most

Despite many of us never having had to experience a lifestyle like that of Wayan and his family, most people surely, at one point in their lives, have needed a little helping hand, a stepping stone to help them get somewhere. Solemen would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who got involved with helping Wayan in some way. Sometimes all we need is a tiny window to see the bigger picture! If you would like to help or contribute to Solemen’s numerous projects, please contact them on: Facebook: IndonesiaSoleMen Twitter: solemenindo www.solemen.org www.dash-bali.com respected dive organization in the world – PADI. On a dive boat a Divemaster will be the person organizing your trip and making sure everything runs smoothly, from welcoming you in the morning to choosing the dive sites according to the experience of the divers onboard and the conditions of the ocean. All this is obviously done with two key factors in mind: you are here to enjoy yourself and safety always comes ﬁrst. Now that Gracia, Erick and Rizal have successfully completed their PADI Divemaster training, they will be with AquaMarine for a further six months, and work under the direct supervision of AMD-B’s senior dive staff. This gives them a solid grounding to become dive guides with a professional, positive, and safety-oriented approach to scuba-diving, ready to be employed in Bali or at other worldclass dive resorts around the country.

Are you constantly pulling ticks off your dog? Ticks are a constant nuisance to dogs and dog owners in Bali. Not only are the little blood-sucking critters unsightly, they can also transmit potentially deadly diseases to your dog (known locally as ‘blood parasite’ – more on that later). If you live in an area heavily infested with ticks, and your dog has free access to the outdoors, it is almost impossible to avoid a few ticks here and there. Much in the same way that if you were to walk around in the jungle wearing insect repellent, you may still get the odd mosquito bite. However, taking precautions can massively reduce the tick burden your dog will face. How do I remove a tick from my dog safely? If you are not squeamish, just get your ¿ngernails right underneath the head of the tick where it is burrowing into the skin and tease it out. The most important thing is not to pull at the abdomen, as it will break off and leave the mouthparts in the skin, which can lead to an infection. If you don’t want to use your ¿ngernails, you can use tweezers or buy a ‘tick remover’ from your local pet shop or vet clinic. How can I minimize the number of ticks on my dog?

Firstly the chemicals used are undoubtedly very toxic and need to be to have their desired effect of killing unwanted creepy crawlies. There are legitimate concerns about the risk to human health of people inhaling such chemicals. It is most commonly done around hotels to reduce the mosquito levels, its ef¿cacy against ticks is not proven but one assumes it would be toxic to most other insects and arachnids including ticks. However therein lies the problem, it is a blunderbuss approach which likely kills many species of wildlife which keep the local ecosystem in balance. One Kuta based company called Green Pest Control, (03615540709) offers a holistic and environmentally friendly pest control service using organic, natural products only. However there is no quick ¿x to a heavy tick infestation and multiple treatments over time may be necessary to alter the tick burden.

The internet is awash with home treatments purported to be effective against ticks. A frequently mentioned one is adding garlic to your dogs’ diet. However, much in the same way as onions, garlic is actually toxic to dogs and can cause anaemia itself. We would advise caution when following home remedies you have read about online. Some may be effective but there is a lot of misinformation online too. What is ‘Blood Parasite’?

First of all, all dogs should have an anti-parasitic spot-on applied to the back of their neck monthly. There are numerous brands available but in our clinic the most effective seems to be Certefect, followed in second place by Frontline. Neither of these products is effective or protective against mange (scabies or demodex) though, so if mange is a greater concern than ticks we would recommend a different product (Revolution or Advocate). It is important to note that the ‘tick shot’, which is a subcutaneous injection of ivermectin, is effective at killing any ticks on your dog at the time of the shot, but has little to no protective effect going forwards. It is nevertheless frequently given by vets in combination with a ‘tick wash’, as many owners wish for an immediate ¿x to their tick problem, and do not want to wait 24-48hrs for the anti-parasitic spot-on to take effect and the dead tick to fall off somewhere in their home. If you only do the tick shot and a tick wash, you will probably ¿nd your dog infested with ticks again a week later. Tick collars are another frequently requested accessory, but our experience is that alone they do not provide suf¿cient protection. They can be a useful weapon when combined with a monthly anti-parasitic spot-on though.

‘Blood Parasite’ is an umbrella term frequently used in Indonesia to refer to a type of bacteria that colonize the red blood cells. The main culprits are the rikettsia, which include the species Ehrlichia and Anaplasma. Also transmitted by ticks are the bacterium Borrelia (causing Lyme disease) and the protozoan Babesia. The most common in Bali seem to be Ehrlichia and Anaplasma, which both cause anaemia, intermittent fever and loss of appetite. They can also interfere with normal coagulation and lead to nose bleeds. If your dog has been exposed to a signi¿cant number of ticks, it is quite likely he/she will have encountered and possibly contracted one of these ‘blood parasites’. A strong immune system can usually keep it in check, but any stress or weakening of the immune system can lead to a severe anaemia and even death. Often your vet may pick up on it incidentally, because the tongue or gums look paler than usual. If you do want your pet to be screened for tick borne disease, this can be easily diagnosed via a blood test at your local vet clinic. The treatment is straightforward and usually comprises a long course of the antibiotic doxycycline, sometimes in conjunction with a corticosteroid to combat the counterproductive autoimmune response to the blood parasite.

Is it transmissible to humans? Remember, ticks are just like Àeas in that they do not live on the dog. Rather they attach themselves, have a blood meal, then fall off so they can go lay their eggs. Dealing with a tick problem at its root cause is dealing with the ticks in the environment that wait for a dog to walk by so they can latch on. In most cases this is very dif¿cult to combat, as the environment where your dog picks up the ticks may not be your own garden but public land, bushes adjacent to the beach, rice ¿elds etc. These are not areas that you can control. However, you can control your own garden and we recommend that you keep grass cut short, trim all areas of vegetation growing around and between paving stones on paths, and also consider using an insecticidal treatment. We recommend Bayticol or Dalmat, available at most good vet clinics or pet shops. This is diluted and used to mop outdoor patio areas as well as indoor tiled, stone or wood surfaces, and kills any eggs or larvae in the environment. Fogging is a highly controversial issue, which many Bali residents are against for both health and ecological reasons.

Lyme disease can be transmitted to humans but fortunately there seems to be very little of it in Bali (very seldom do we see a positive test). The common ones in Bali are Ehrlichiosis and Anaplasmosis and we are not aware of any transmission to humans having occurred. So if your dog tests positive to one of these diseases, there is no danger to your own or your family’s health, but get ready to start a ‘war on ticks’ to protect your dog!

The school (which was held over 5 days and was divided into 6 classes) taught musician’s guitar, drums, piano, After a hazy double bass, brass, and woodwind and reed instruments. start, one dog Another co-founder of the festival Yuri Mahatma said too many, and “This is a great opportunity for young Indonesians to gain a c a m e r a valuable knowledge and improve their skills through classes man too few, in theory and daily jam sessions.” myself, and my associate Back to the story: So I was happily enjoying the scenery, the ¿nally wound great food and the lively atmosphere. As I said we were a up in the Ubud little early so had a few cocktails to get in the spirit of jazz. Village Jazz At 4pm the Open Mind Quartet came onto the Padi Stage, festival. First The quartet were great and had a nice jazz funk beat and off before I were very technical. Now I will come clean, and as those of get into the you who are regular readers will already know Jazz is not nitty gritty of the festival itself, I wanted to say a massive really my scene, I prefer to listen to rock music, blues, thank you to the good folks at BARC Ubud for looking and of course heavy metal, however with the Open Mind after the dog for us for the whole day! They are a great Quartet you could clearly see that the musical melody, the organization which houses abandoned and unwanted Bali speed were every bit as technical as say a progressive rock street dogs and ¿nds them loving new homes, check out band like Dream theater and it was very interesting and their website here: www.balidogrefuge.com. indeed inspiring to listen to that level of professional musicianship.

We quickly found the bar and sat down right in the talented guitarist centre between the ¿rst and second stages. The bar was has been playing great and the festival was serving mojito’s for just 30,000 since he was just RP! So as me and my friends were early we sat and waited 7 y e a r s o l d .

Unlike other gigs I have the 7th and 8th of August. It has been running for three been to the jazz crowd were much more laid back, most consecutive years, and has been growing in size and preferring to sit on the Àoor cushions and relax rather than getting up close and personal to the stage.

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris

Simple Water Saving in the Garden ‘Dear Dr. Kris, I thought about rain water tanks to collect water for use on my garden, do you have any other ideas for conserving water use on the garden and what are the benefits? Overall I am aiming to develop a sustainable system. Are there easy ways to reduce the amount of water that I use on gardening, I want to reduce the amount I use at the same time re-using or recycling water. Thank you for your answers. Simon in Bali.’ A good water conservation strategy in the garden should take into account the whole system of your garden. For example, harvesting water with rain water tanks is good, but even better if you mulch the garden to lock the moisture in. Another consideration would be grouping plants with similar moisture requirements, that way you are not wasting water on plants that don’t need to be watered. Ensure taps, ¿ttings and hoses are not leaking. A dripping tap can waste up to 15 litres of water a day, sometimes more. Use good quality hose ¿ttings. To check for leaks, turn off every tap and appliance that uses water then read the water meter. Wait 3 hours and read again. If the meter has ticked over, there’s a leak somewhere. Often the ¿rst consideration will be how to save water without hurting the plants. Here are some quick watering tips. The soil should be watered, not the leaves. Consistently watering foliage will encourage fungus, mildew and other pests. Give the plants a deep watering 1-2 times a week. This will encourage the plants to develop stronger deeper root systems which will make them more water ef¿cient and stronger in the long run. If plants are watered frequently, the roots won’t need to search for water and a shallow root system will develop, producing weak plants and encouraging pests and disease. Consider the type of soil, your climate and the types of plants you are growing. Sandy soil holds less water than heavier clay soils. Therefore, a garden planted on sandy soil will dry out faster than a clay soil which can hold moisture like a sponge. Adding compost or even mulch to sandy soil will increase water holding capacity. Adding to clay soil will increase aeration and drainage. Mulching is especially useful for a dry or sandy soil. It will help the soil to retain moisture through reduced evaporation, and suppress weeds which would otherwise compete for nutrients and water with your other plants. The easiest mulches are dry leaves, bark, rice hulls, grass clippings, even gravel or stones. Most organic mulches have some nutrient value, and will contribute to the soil as they break down. Climatic conditions are important. If it is hot and dry for long periods, then you will have to water more often. In times of frequent rain, you may not need to water at all. Through the seasons, as the climate changes from hot to cold, or wet to dry you will need to adjust watering requirements accordingly. Types of plants that you are growing, will also affect watering requirements. Seedlings, newly transplanted plants, vegetables and plants in pots can require watering daily during hot conditions. Plant vegetables closer together, this method

decreases the amount of water needed per unit area, and reduces evaporation from the soil. Pay attention to your plants, if they start wilting or drying out then they are in need of more regular watering. Water in the early morning or late evening, watering in the middle of the day will increase water loss to evaporation. Drip irrigation or soaker hoses are further options for delivering water straight to where it is needed. A soaker house is just a long hose with tiny pores that allow water to drip into the surrounding soil, without spray. Soaker hoses are more versatile than a ¿xed drip irrigation system because you can easily unplug remove and relocate it if your irrigation needs change. There are many bene¿ts associated with harvesting rainwater. Water conservation is good for the environment, saves money on your bill and is bene¿cial for the plants and soil. Town water is treated with many chemicals such as chlorine and Àuoride, which are harmful to the soil and plants. Bulk rainwater harvesting usually requires the installation of a gutter system to channel rainwater from rooftops into gutters through a downpipe into a storage tank. Grey water harvesting which is recycling the water from the shower, washing machines or dishwashers is also possible, but the setup is more complicated and can be prohibitively expensive. Grey water is not suitable for edible plants, or for garden areas frequented by children.

C/Ho/G-19 August 15

A low-tech, low-cost method would be to collect rainwater in barrels, garbage bins, buckets or other similar containers. When it has stopped raining or when the container is full, cover it with a lid or nylon Àyscreen mesh to stop the mosquitoes getting in. Keep a tub or bucket near the shower or sink. Every time you run the hot water instead of just pouring the initial Àow of cold water down the sink you can collect it in the bucket. You will be surprised at how much perfectly useable water you are just pouring down the sink each day. Transfer to a watering can, you may not need to use the hose again. You can also save your cooking water, if you steam or boil vegetables and eggs. When the water has cooled pour it directly onto plants, it is full of nutrients and makes a free fertiliser. Reuse pond or ¿sh tank water, if you clean your ¿sh tank, re-use the ‘dirty’ nitrogen and phosphorous-rich water on your plants. Limit the area of land devoted to growing turf grass. Wash your car or motorbike on the lawn to water and fertilise the grass at the same time. The detergents contain phosphates similar to many fertilisers. Only water your lawn when it needs it, a good soaking every now and then is preferable to frequent, light watering, it will encourages deeper roots, giving you a more drought resistant lawn.

Which in turn leads us to that famous man Ebidiah Pump who invented the pump action shotgun, a clever device that allows the shooter to shoot lots of ducks in very quick succession. Unfortunately it also enables nutcases to shoot many people in quick succession and Ebidiah came under serious public criticism for selling weapons of mass destruction to the general public. His family were so embarrassed by this that they changed their name to Trump, an unfortunate choice because, where I come from, a trump refers to the passing of noxious and odorous gasses from biologically active anatomical passageways and mere mention of the word draws convulsions of giggling from young boys. Moving quickly on, the pump family do, however, have a famous ancestry. Best known was Sir Frederich Pump, the chairman of the Upper Wallop Serf Club, who invented a device consisting of a pipe with a one way piston and operated by a handle which enabled the serfs to draw water from underground. Used all over the world the village pump has been the centre of community life since time immoral. It has been the cause of many conflicts over the years, it has indirectly lead to many marriages and has been the subject of many songs (mostly of the bawdy variety). But then their was Sir Frederich’s great, great, great, great, grandson’s, cousin’s, uncles, husband’s, great, great, grandson Cornelius Archibald Pump who, when tinkering in old Frederich’s garden shed one day, came across a design for a rotating centrifugal water pump which old Fred had thoughtfully put aside until the electric motor was invented some 3 centuries later. This pump uses a rotating wheel with fins or vanes in it which, using centrifugal force, throws the water outwards with such force that it can drive it along pipes. This clever device is used these days to mow down crowds of serfs when they are severely lacking in the gruntle department and become revolting.

We do not want the same pressure to switch the pump on and off and so in fact there are two pressure switches each set at a predetermined pressure. In most systems we might set the switches to switch the pump on if the water pressure falls to say 24 psi (pounds per square inch) then the pump will run until the pressure reaches say 40 psi. These pressures vary according to your individual needs and how your water system is designed. Pressure tank If we have a large water pump trying to pump water out of a small tap the pump will switch on and start pumping water but, because the water cannot get out of the tap quickly enough the pressure may build up and the pump will switch itself off again; but then the water running out of the tap catches up, the pressure in the water falls so the pump starts again.

This process is repeated continually and the pump is cycling on and off (I am sure many of you will be familiar with the comforting sound of the stuttering water pump). The pump switching on and off rapidly is not good for the pump, for the switches or for the electricity bill to say nothing of the modern day “water torture” that keeps you awake at night. For more information on cycling water pumps see the article at www. mrfixitbali.com/articles/water-pump-cycling-165.html To solve this problem we attach a pressure tank to the pump and most of the water pumps we use have pressure tanks attached to them. Pressure tanks are steel tanks filled with air which is contained inside a rubber bladder. Water is not compressible but air is and so, if we pump water into the tank, this will progressively squeeze the air contained in the bladder to a smaller and smaller volume effectively storing up the pressure. Now if we turn a tap on the pressure in the water is released and the air will gradually expand pushing the water out of the tap. When the pressure tank has ejected all its water it is now filled with air at low pressure, the water pump will start and will run until the air is fully compressed and, with the system back up to pressure again the pump will stop. This means that the water pump will still start and stop but at a much slower rate than if the pressure tank is not there.

My mind was drawn to the inescapable parallel of a well known, supposedly intelligent country, that still hasn’t managed to work out that if anyone can buy guns freely on the street people are inevitably going to get killed.

The pump will run until the water in the outlet pipe increases to a pre set maximum pressure, when this pressure is reached the pressure in the water operates the switch to turn the pump off.

It is a little known fact that the unofficial constitution of West Sumba states that all men and boys have the right to bear arms and so it is that the menfolk of that forthright island all walk around with a parang (a local version of a machete, rather like a small sword). On seeing a group of young boys playing (some as young as 6) each with a parang in a scabbard on his hip and, bearing in mind that young boys have a tendency to fall out with each other once every twenty seconds, I enquired of my driver “do people ever get killed?” “Oh yes,” he declared nonchalantly “all the time.” “They help with negotiations” he explained “we call it parang diplomacy.”

Pressure tanks, in fact, perform two functions, while their main function is storing pressure as we have explained they also provide an air cushion in the water system which absorbs shocks in the system when taps are suddenly turned on or off. Water Pump Troubleshooting Guide Water pumps are very reliable however things can, and do, go wrong from time to time.

On a different but, you may appreciate, slightly related tangent to our subject, you may note that the island of Sumba, a place noted for being drier than a camel’s belly button, has felt considerable benefit from Sir Fred’s invention of the centrifugal water pump. Water pumps are little heroes in our homes but are usually forgotten until we have a problem. They are generally very reliable working without attention often for years on end. They are inexpensive but an essential component in the systems that make our lives comfortable, would you want to go back to a well and a bucket when flushing the toilet or having a shower? A basic water pump consists of an impellor, a wheel with vanes on it, mounted in a housing with an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe - a simple but effective arrangement. The pump is attached to an electric motor which drives it.

C/BM/G-8 July 15

There are several components attached to water pumps to improve their performance and their usefulness: Capacitor A capacitor (also known as a condenser) is a clever little bleeder. It capacitor collects electrical energy then, when it has enough, it releases it in a zap of extra energy. Very useful as ice breakers at parties, capacitors are used to give a burst of extra energy to get things going. On electric motors they give an extra burst of energy to get them turning. Normally cylindrical about 2 cms diameter and 8 cms long with a wire coming out of one end the capacitor is usually mounted inside a small cover on the outside of the electric motor. Pressure switches Many of the water pumps we use have pressure switches which sense the pressure of the water in the pump’s outlet pipe and switch the pump on and off. You will find the pressure switches mounted on a small pipe screwed into the pump housing with a plastic cap covering the electrics. Normally the water in your water system is pressurised. If you turn on a tap the pressure in your water system is released which in turn releases the pressure on the pressure switch which then operates to turn your water pump on.

SCHEDULE THAT Bali Interfood Exhibition (3 – 5 September) Food is the foundation of life. We all depend upon food and water and the food industry has had some bad publicity lately with the issues of food wastage and supermarkets throwing away tonnes of food. The dairy industry is suffering badly in the UK from low price milk and protests have been taking place by farmers and those affected. Other issues such as obesity and eating disorders hit the headlines from time to time. Despite all this food is a huge industry and that is what this exhibition is promoting. It is the second exhibition in Bali focusing on products, ingredients, technology and services. Exhibitors are from a range of backgrounds including herbal and health foods, retail and franchising, fresh and processed foods, coffee, tea and cocoa as well as frozen foods, ¿sh, seafood and meats. Herbal and health foods have a bright future as more and more people are becoming more conscious of the links between diet and certain types of diseases. This exhibition will appeal to anyone in the industry as well as those who might have a particular interest in food products and technology. This is certainly the place to come to and ¿nd out more about what is happening in the world of food. The website lists exhibitors and has comprehensive information. Where : Nusa Dua Convention Centre Contact : 021 6345861 info@kristamedia.com www.bali-interfood.com

Block Party (29 August) KuDeTa have yet another party to conclude August and their high season of parties. This time, DJ Felix Da Housecat, Beat Assail and Rob Swift will keep the guests entertained with an eclectic mix of sounds. These parties always attract the bold and the beautiful of Bali, expats and locals alike. If you have not experienced a KuDeTa party then take this opportunity. The food is ¿ne dining too and worth every delicious mouthful. Enjoy! When : 2 pm – 11 pm

Magical Toastmaster (21 August) This is another group in Bali that attracts like minded people and is set up to help people develop skills in speaking, listening, giving feedback. Listening is a real skill which people seem to take for granted. With some people I ¿nd I am often in the middle of a conversation and suddenly I realise my listener is waiting for a moment to interrupt and then move the conversation swiftly along to a completely different topic. To be an effective listener requires being attentive, providing feedback and is a skill that requires work. Being able to speak and listen effectively has a profound impact on the quality of relationships and good communications really is the key to effective relationships both socially and professionally. The mission of this group is to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every member has the opportunity to develop and practice communication and leadership skills that foster self con¿dence and personal growth. The group meets every ¿rst and third Friday of the month. A light snack is provided. This is a great way to develop both personally and professionally and meet new people. When : 6 pm – 8 pm Where : Jl Hang Tuah 43, Sanur Contact : 081 236125525

Sanur Sunday Market (23 August)

much quicker. Each year I vow to organise my shopping weeks in advance but this somehow never happens. I am sure many readers are more organised! A Sunday market is a great way of ¿nding original and unique gifts whether for Christmas, a birthday or just to show a loved one how much you care. It is also a great place to ¿nd a few bargains and perhaps treat yourself too. This Sunday market has to be one of the biggest in Bali with over 50 vendors. Items being sold include fashion, accessories, beach wear, shoes, recycled glassware and wallets, rubber jewellery and home wares. There are activities for the children so this market makes for a nice family outing too. For IDR50,000 the family can enjoy a dip in the hotel pool. This market will take place on the last Friday of the month in the future. It has been moved so that it does not clash with the Sanur Village Festival so do come and enjoy a morning out. Where : Mecure Resort, Jl Mertasari Sanur Contact : 081 218883343 sundaymarketsanur@gmail.com

Sanur Village Festival (26 – 30 August) This is one of my favourite festivals. The festival came to fruition after the second Bali bombings in 2005 when tourism was at its lowest ebb since the ¿rst Bali bombings in 2002. Now in its tenth year this really is a testimony to its success. Bali has come a long way since then and its achievements are amazing. Boasting the new toll road, a new airport, numerous initiatives, better infrastructure and of course a unique and amazing culture so rich and colourful and an island with an abundance of Àora and fauna, Bali is always going to be a success story. It has demonstrated its ability to bounce back in the face of terror and adversity to continue to attract millions of tourists each year from across globe. Yayasan Pembangunan is supported by the Denpasar regional and Bali provincial government have conducted a series of activities to support community cultural arts. The Sanur Village Festival is really a showcase of the talents of local people in the arts, with live entertainment, a bazaar, water sports and a fabulous food court. Surf competitions, a fun run, a beach cleanup, a coral plantation and painting exhibition are also key features of the exhibition. There is something for all the family and activities for the children. This is one festival that is not to be missed. The website is comprehensive and provides timings, details of venues and meeting points. : Maisonette Area, Inna Grand Bali Beach Hotel, Bali Beach Golf, Jl Hangtuah, Sanur Contact : www.sanurvillagefestival.com

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) By Ayu Spicy This recipe was inspired by part of a smoked fish antipasto platter I had in Siracusa, Sicily. Syracuse English translation of the name) was the largest city in the ancient world - larger than Athens or Corinth. The old city is a mix of centuries old meandering lanes and open wide plazas. An outdoor cafe in the waterfront market lured me in for lunch, inspiration and a glass of velvety Sicilian red.

Olive, Orange, Caper Salad with Smoked Fish Serves 4 Ingredients: - 2 large oranges - 2 Tbl. thinly sliced shallots - 1 Tbl. capers - 10 Kalamata olives, pitted and slivered - 1/2 tsp. lemon or lime juice - 1/2 tsp. ¿nely grated orange zest - 12 slices of smoked mahi mahi (or other smoked ¿sh)

Directions: Grate the orange zest before you peel the orange and set it aside. Working over a bowl, use a sharp knife to cut away the orange peel, removing all the white pith. Now hold the orange in one hand and carefully cut the segments out leaving the tough membrane behind to throw away. Drop the segments into the bowl as you work allowing the juice to drip in as well. Once all the segments are in the bowl add the shallots, capers, olives, lemon or lime juice. Toss well and sprinkle in the orange zest and toss again. Put this in the fridge, covered, for an hour or two so the Àavors meld. Take the fish out of the fridge about an hour before assembling. It is easier to handle if it’s at room temperature. When you’re ready to serve, line small individual bowls, wine glasses, martini glasses or custard cups with three slices each of the smoked ¿sh. Spoon the orange salad into the center and serve as a ¿rst course or appetizer.

Restaurant Review

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

Izakaya Comes to Bali! KUU is a Japanese r e s t a u r a n t specializing in Izakaya cuisine. It is located street-side at Sanur’s newest 5 star hotel, the impressive Maya Sanur. Izakaya was developed as a series of small dishes in Japan’s Sake bars. By keeping your hunger at bay, you kept on drinking! Or that was the intention, by providing small, tasty, budgetpriced snacks. Much the same philosophy created Tapas in Spanish bars. Both of these cuisine styles have developed into full restaurants that serve just those dishes, as many people now prefer a series of small and different tastes to the traditional 3 course norm. Kuu is the first Izakaya restaurant in Bali, they classify their offerings as Appetisers, Sashimi, Sushi, Simmered & Steamed, Grilled and Fried dishes and, of course, Desserts. Most are just small serves for one, but there are a few exceptions to that, big enough for two to share amongst the more main style dishes. Amongst the mini dishes are two-mouthful specials such as Goma Dofu [a split steamed prawn sitting on a sesame scented square of tofu, with a touch of wasabi], Renkon [lotus root chips] and the very healthy Edamame [poached soya beans]. All the major Sashimi is available [tuna, salmon, scallop, octopus, white fish, shrimp and fatty tuna] but the Chef’s Special Platter of Sashimi [3 or 5 pieces] is the best option. The Sushi choice is greater, with a variety of Maki Rolls some of which are quite spicy and even a few pure vegetarian ones. Special rolls include the basic Californian [avocado, crab, lettuce and seaweed plus flying fish roe], Ebiten [stuffed with tempura of prawn, lettuce and mayonnaise], Karaage [chicken, lettuce and mayonnaise] and the special and more expensive Kuu Roll [tuna, lettuce, cucumber, seaweed, spicy mayonnaise, topped with grilled eel]. 11 individual Sushi are available and the Chef’s Special Platter can be ordered as the Standard or De-Luxe version. After all of those tempting small snacks it is time for a few more substantial dishes. The ‘Simmered & Steamed’ section includes Butakakuni [pork belly]. Now when you see pork belly on a menu you normally think of small meat with much fat! Not at Kuu where the fat has been trimmed and the pork belly flesh slowly braised. It is served in a bowl to keep it warm, the meat sitting on a base of mashed potato, with leek and boiled egg. Tori Jibuni Fuu is chicken, asparagus, shiitake mushroom and pumpkin, braised in a dashi broth. Furofuki is for lovers of Daikon, this radish is braised with dengaku miso, a sweeter version of normal miso, a strange name as ‘dengaku’ is also the name of an old traditional Japanese dance!

Chawan Mushi is a steamed savoury egg custard with seafood, shiitake mushroom and ginko [maidenhair], topped with plum paste and a dashi glaze.

QUICK REVIEW

Amongst the ‘Fried’ dishes one took me by surprise. Whenever I am checking out restaurants I invariably order one or two very simple dishes, the ones you see on many other menus of that cuisine. Such was the Chicken Katsu [pictured]. At Kuu a full chicken breast is crumbed [which keeps all the juices inside during cooking] and deep fried. The result was chicken, crisp on the outside and tender inside, served cross-sliced for easy chopstick manipulation. The accompanying Tonkatsu sauce was sweet and spicy, perfect for dipping. At only Rp.35,000++ I would have happily paid double.

Restaurant

: Kuu.

Address

: Maya Sanur, Jl. Danau Tamblingan,

Tempura is the classic Japanese offering from the fryer. The batter is light and crisp. You can order just a vegetarian tempura or one that combines either white fish or prawns, both with assorted vegetables. Kushikatsu is skewers coated with breadcrumbs, nice and crisp. They can be squares of tofu stuffed with beef, shiitake mushrooms also stuffed with beef or in a surprising invasion from the west, cubes of Camembert cheese.

The ‘Grilled’ section s headed by all-time favourite Teriyaki. Strips of very tender beef or chicken coated with that sweet soy and mirin sauce. Yakitori is traditional street food but much better when coming from Kuu’s hygienic kitchen. They offer the original [chicken pieces] or variations [chicken and leek, chicken livers or minced chicken]. Nikumaki is asparagus spears rolled in a thin slice of Angus beef, grilled with another sweet sauce. I could make a meal of these alone.

Takoyaki are amazing small balls, crisp on the outer and very soft inside, stuffed with a mixture of octopus, leek and ginger. The pyramid is topped with seaweed, flakes of bonito and lines of mayonnaise. Something completely different is the Dashimaki Tamago, small rolled ometettes, dashi flavoured, served plain or stuffed with spring onion or salted cod roe. For dessert stay Japanese with Red Bean Pudding topped with a sweet green tea sauce and sesame crisp or go fusion with Roasted Green Tea Panacotta. Being an Izakaya restaurant, Sake is the normal drink of choice. Sake is often referred to as Japanese rice wine yet its production is much closer to the way beer is brewed. It is very strong and is only taken in small sips from the little cup [for first-timers; you do not refill the cup after emptying as you would if drinking wine, you only pour when you are about to drink it]. KUU has a range of 7 Sake by the bottle [up to a Hakuryu Junmai Daiginjo], and 3 brands available by small ceramic carafes, including a low alcohol Ozaki Hana Awaka. It can be served hot or cold, I like mine hot. It is always very daring bringing a totally new cuisine and dining concept to Bali with its limited local market and a tourist one that changes almost by the week. The Maya Group should be applauded for being so forward looking. Try KUU with an open mind and you will be rewarded.

Update Lada profiles itself as an Indonesian restaurant although there is a small Asian selection at the back of the menu that contains a few interesting dishes. Lada was once called Peppers, and is found at the old Sanur Beach Hotel. Now the hotel has been upgraded and re-branded as a Prama Hotel, the top brand for Aerowisata Hotels [Garuda]. Fittingly all the food and beverage outlets have also had an upgrading. The first thing that amazed me at Lada was the prices! Sure it is offering local cuisine but at a top drawer hotel to only have two dishes [the Seafood Platter and Grilled Prawns] over Rp.100,000 in 2015 is very amazing! All of the other dishes are less than this figure, and often much less than what is offered generally in the area. Soup can be Buntut [ox-tail] or the classic Rawon from Surabaya, beef with the black nut Keluak. Everybody loves spring rolls, at Lada they are in Semarang style stuffed with minced prawn and mushroom, the sauce a sweet and sour, deep fried, nice and crisp. Sate rivals spring rolls for popularity, choose between the Balinese Lilit [minced fish], Chicken Madura style, Lamb from Central Java or a mixed selection. The mains are from all over Indonesia; Ayam Betutu [Bali], Taliwang [Lombok], Gulai [Medan], Rendang [Sumatra] and a nice fiery Udang Masak Lada Hitam from South Sulawesi; tossed river prawns with a black pepper sauce. Whilst most Asian dishes are meant to be shared there are always rice and noodle dishes which are suitable for lone diners. Amongst the Nasi Goreng options is one from Northern Sulawesi with prawns [pictured]. The noodle options include ones from Aceh [Bakmi] and East Java [Kwetiau]. The Seafood Platter combines squid, fillet of fish, prawns and scallops with your choice of sambals. Quality food, with taste, from a modern professional and hygienic kitchen.

Butchers Club, Jln. Raya Petitenget, recently introduced Steak Frites every Friday evening for dinner. It was such a success that it is now available every night of the week. The steak is 14oz dry-aged [40 days] Black Angus Rib-eye steaks, cooked a perfect medium rare and served with their trademark Duck Fat Fries and your choice of peppercorn sauce, Dijon mustard or horseradish cream. An organic salad with balsamic dressing is on the side. A steak like no other in Bali! The cost is only Rp.280,000 Net, the switched-on management have listened to the endless complaints from visiting tourists about Bali’s ++ and show all menu prices inclusive of tax and service…what you see is what you get! They have also introduced a Happy Hour, every day from 5.00 to 7.00 p.m., Bintang beers for only Rp. 25,000 [Net, of course], or one completely FREE if ordered with any burger. Home delivery is now also available to nearby hotels and villas. Kebun Zibiru is found on Jln. Drupadi, Seminyak, in the space that once was Café Vienna. Before it was Austrian, but now it is very Italian. Italian chef Luigi Calcagno presides and his home made pastas, breads and pastries are what they are all coming here for, and to listen to Jazz, which is a surprise as you would be more likely to expect operatic arias to complement the cuisine. You have a choice of dining locations, inside in the air-con, in the small intimate inside garden setting or on the roof. Start with a Tagliere, a selection of Cured Meats, served with salted ricotta cheese in a pot of honey, Carpaccio di Piovra, thinly sliced octopus topped with fennel salad, pineapple, thyme, pine nuts and a lemon emulsion or Carpaccio di Filetto di Vitella, thinly sliced Beef Tenderloin topped with caramelized pear, arugula salad and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. For Pasta what could be better than Gnocchi Norcina, it is potato pasta with sausage and black pepper in a white wine cream sauce. For a main try something very different, for Bali; Coniglio alla Cacciatora, slow-cooked rabbit in a white wine sauce with peas and mushrooms. Sadly Kebun Zibiru is only a walking proposition as there is virtually no parking available on this narrow street.

Arang Sate is probably Bali’s most up-market café for eating sates. The combinations are mind-boggling, some work and others do not. Pieces of Barramundi with lotus root slices sounds exotic but do they really go together? Better was Octopus with caramelized orange. They offer a big range of unique sates but at quite a cost. Generally speaking they are charging Seminyak prices in Ubud, something that has not happened before and may or may not work? The café supposedly has some connection to The Chandi on Eat Street. The building is a narrow deep space where they have made the best of a difficult shape although normal chairs at a bar, no thanks! Only serving premium spirits will surely change soon if they want more custom? Arang Sate is just around the corner from the top of Monkey Forest, in Raya Ubud, almost opposite the royal palace. The food adventurers will love this place!

El Loco is the 3rd café to try this spot at the beginning of Jln Werkudara, Legian, just metres from Jln. 66. Previous incumbent, for a short time, was Sushi Q which replaced one of Bali’s first attempts at a Thai restaurant Waroeng Asia. So this little place has gone from Thai, to Japanese to Mexican. Calling a place Mexican is a bit of a misnomer in Bali, as this one, as are all the others, are either Cal-mex or Tex-mex, if there is any difference. They have all the usual ‘Mex’ offerings, mostly covered with cheese, but at very budget prices. Skyblue is situated on one of those side streets in Sanur that you would never use unless directed so to do. It is found on Jln. Kesuma Sari in Semarang, a short road that runs from Jln. Danau Tamblingan to the beach. Once a nightclub, it is now a trendy restaurant with a variety of air-con and open air garden settings. The offerings are very International with the accent on grilled meats; steaks of every description, pork chops or ribs, chicken [BBQ’d with hickory and orange sauce], sausages and a very ”Aussie’ Mixed Grill [pork chop, sausage and steak with a fried egg on top]. There is also a small selection of Asian dishes that include an Indian Chicken & Pineapple Korma. Desserts feature Crumbles [mixed berry or strawberry & apple] and, unusually, the Cheese Platter comes with a Tawny Port, very nice!

DEFINITELY AND ABSOLUTELY THE LAST HOUSE I can’t believe I’m doing this again. Apart from the technical, labour and financial issues, building a house in Bali is a steep learning curve for personal development. It could be de¿ned as an excellent practice in patience and non-attachment. The best-laid plans and deadlines evaporate like a puddle in the tropical sun. No building can be undertaken because of Nyepi, mass cremations, mass tooth filings, before Galungan until after Kuningan and then - guess what? - the banjar is having an odalon.

As I waited impatiently through Galungan and Kuningan, Nyoman tried to ¿nd a team of builders. Labour has always been a big issue in our projects because of the huge amount of construction constantly going on around Ubud; no one is ever available. Because of this Nyoman often builds almost single-handed, which means he has learned to do everything. But as the time came for the joglo to be dismantled a few kilometres away, he’d gathered a team of old men from his village. Together they knocked down the whole structure in three days, packed it into several truckloads and piled up the bits and pieces on my new land.

Just when you see enough clear space on the calendar to Visiting the site next morning I was taken aback to see what get the foundation poured, someone in the community dies a very small pile a dismantled joglo makes.

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

A Brief History of Indonesia by Tim Hannigan When Tim Hannigan ¿rst arrived in Indonesia in 2002 as an earnest backpacker with a passion for history, he headed for Bali’s best bookshop in the tourist enclave of Kuta Beach. Among the bright shelves full of books about Indonesia were plenty of heavy tomes and weighty academic histories about the country, but not one pithy non-scholarly narrative history for the general reader. That literary vacuum he himself set out to ¿ll a decade later with the publication of A Brief History of Indonesia, the kind of light entertaining reading that the young traveler was looking for those many years ago. It is not a work of professional scholarship or formal academic research, but a highly readable ¿rst landfall in Indonesian history. It succeeds admirably in making a story out of Indonesia’s past, providing an informative, solid and irreverent introduction to one of Asia’s most colorful and fascinating countries. Dates, battles and kings have long gone out of fashion with professional historians. They look instead to contexts and impacts where they ¿nd a deeper understanding. A framework of facts is still needed before a writer can ever hope to consider the contexts, so this book does have all the important dates, battles and kings, as well as recounting the colorful and sometimes funny visits of foreign travelers who have passed through these shores over the centuries - from missionaries, traders, soldiers and Chinese Buddhist pilgrims to Moroccan and Dutch adventurers, English sea captains, American tourists and Indonesian revolutionaries. Indonesia is a land of stupefying diversity and unending paradoxes that has a long and rich history stretching back more than a thousand years. The sprawling island nation is by far the largest state in Southeast Asia and the world’s fourth most populous. Indonesian history and culture are especially relevant today as the country is an emerging power in the region with a dynamic new leader. The chapters chronicling the early history of Indonesia are elucidating. One section on Majapahit portrays the ancient kingdom as the ¿rst cultural binding element for the archipelago. Interestingly, the author rejects the crude nationalist notion of Majapahit as a pan-Indonesian empire, but emphasizes more its importance in forging the beginnings of a pan-Indonesian culture. The author in his discussion of the Sriwijaya Empire makes a similar argument. Particularly enlightening are key passages about Indonesian national identity and resistance to colonialism. The whole of the chapter Clash of Civilizations deals with the conÀicts between European imperial power and indigenous sovereigns, and the resistance of the latter to the rise of the former. The second half of this chapter tackles resistance to the Dutch in Sumatra and Java, by ¿gures who are now proclaimed national heroes. Elsewhere, we read of stormy sea crossings, ¿ery volcanoes and the occasional tiger – telling snapshots of the islands at particular points in time. The writer’s primary task was to forge a single driving narrative out of the vastness of Indonesian history. He is skilled at pointing out incidents that serve to illustrate the whole and to identify the threads that bind the whole archipelago together as a historical entity. The chapters dealing with the rise of nationalism and the war for independence are most relevant to celebrations of Indonesian independence. The ¿nal passage of the last chapter is no less than a song of praise to the existence of a nation that no one could possibly ever have envisioned or invented.

Hannigan’s aim is analogous to the job of Indonesia’s founders in establishing a single nation-state out of myriad wildly diverse islands, ethnicities, languages and religions, making one story out of many tales. But besides this high-minded mission, Hannigan’s book is simply a good read, a compilation of easily comprehensible and well-chosen yarns taken out of the grand narrative of Indonesia’s past. This is most decidedly not the kind of history you read in tourist guidebooks and brochures. The majority of narrative histories about a place as big as Indonesia simplify a good deal and leave out a good deal more. Though it makes for more engrossing reading, this is also the case with Hannigan’s version. For this reason, the “Further Reading and Bibliography” sections in the back matter list the most important sources he used as well as suggest further reading on subjects and events passed over too quickly or bypassed altogether. Recommendations for books he personally found enjoyable and worthwhile add a bit of spice. There are various other respectable histories of Indonesia, many of which were used as references in Hannigan’s own research, but none have really aimed to do what he has attempted and achieved here. Colin Brown’s A Short History of Indonesia is of similar length and covers the same timeframe in a very accessible style, with excellent explanations of economic contexts across history. But Brown is a professional scholar who doesn’t set out to be “entertaining,” which Hannigan assuredly does. Another very fine book is Jean Gelman Taylor’s Indonesia: Peoples and Histories. Taylor is a professional scholar and this is also a scholarly book. But she has a distinctly literary prose style, quite unusual among academics. She makes a huge effort to bring human experiences from history to the fore; particularly the experiences of “normal” people of the kind usually obscured in more traditional historical narratives, the so-called “subaltern.” This is a very commendable approach, though again, she does not actively try to create an entertaining “good read.”

The only other narrative histories that have the same ripping can’t-put-it-down tale-spinning-style as Hannigan’s that are readily available are Giles Milton’s Nathaniel’s Nutmeg and Simon Winchester’s Krakatoa, both of which are brilliant fun, but both of which cover only one tiny episode in the great sweep of Indonesia’s past. What makes A Brief History of Indonesia stand out from other available histories is simply that it is a highly readable overview of the country’s history. In this it should provide something of real use to those who have been daunted by the prospect of getting to grips with the country’s past - be they long-term expats, regular visitors, interested new comers or even Indonesian citizens previously bored by dry formal histories.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS UBUD BURLESQUE Another fabulous night of theatre early this month at “Ubud Live!: a Burlesque of Music, Dance and Spoken Word”; congratulations to everyone who helped raise 6.7 million rupiah for the work of Bali Peduli, the HIV/Aids non-pro¿t. Under Mario Cossa’s direction, the evening began – appropriately enough – with the whole troupe singing “Willkommen”, the welcome song from the musical CABARET (with lyrics in German, Indonesian, and English), and then moved into a series of acts prepared by individuals and small groups. This is a rich, diverse group of ex-pat and Indonesian actors, dancers, singers and theatre wizards; where else would a Javanese drag performer, a Russian ballerina and an Australian bush poet share the same stage? As the troupe continues to develop, we’ll see more inspiration, more energy and more fun spilling over into our community. Next up a Halloween Costume Party and Performance. For more information, please contact Jelila: jelila@jelila.com. SAFE SIDEWALKS! After the puzzling brick pavers exercise in Jalan Hanoman south of Kafe and Kebun, it’s great to see some road works – or rather, footpath works – that make sense! I’m sure most people have a friend who has broken or twisted an ankle, tripping along that stretch on Hanoman between Jalan Sugriwa and Coco supermarket. It was a hazard zone, with many deep and dangerous holes. The sidewalk renewal goes south from that corner past Riyoshi and Dirty Ducks restaurants; hopefully they’ll keep going all the way to the petrol station. CHAMP GRADUATES Everyone shares the pride of achievement, when they celebrate with the graduating class of Campuhan College. You can see the spirit and con¿dence in these young people, after their year-long program of learning computer skills, English, leadership skills and “Living Values” education. This year’s group of graduates – the seventh - ended the night with a sidesplitting drama, presented in Àuent English! Tears of inspiration and pride were spilled and a gift of a pen was given to each of the incoming class of 21 youngsters, who are selected on merit from the villages surrounding Ubud. This exciting program started as an “impossible” dream only seven years ago, and it is astonishing to see what Wayan Rustiasa, Ni Luh Warsini and their amazing staff have accomplished since then. If you are looking for a cause to support in Bali, why not sponsor one of these students for a year of study? Www.campuhancollege.com; Jl Raya Campuhan, +62 361 7800399. NEW SPICES Eight chefs welcome you with an “Om Swasiastu!” at Chris Saran’s newest culinary offering, “Spice” – the third restaurant in the Mosaic group - opposite the Saraswati temple on Jalan Raya Ubud. Only open a few weeks, with six tables for four and line of bar stools, there’s an ef¿cient self-service “tick-the-box” order process - and all those cooks - so you’ll nab a seat without much of a wait. The menu is small - always a smart move when opening something in Bali - and the focus is on tasty local dishes “reimagined”. It’s already packed at night and looks to be a new hip spot with lots of action.

Bringing women’s voices to the forefront of the UWRF stage will be controversial writer on love and marriage in modern India Ira Trivedi, the fiery Indonesian feminist Ayu Utami and the hugely popular Women of Letters event series.

After attracting more than 26,000 literature lovers in 2014, the not-for-profit Festival will this year play host to 160 of the world’s leading authors, thinkers, artists, advocates and social commentators, coming together from more than 25 countries across the globe.

Translating the language and allure of their mother tongue to Festival audiences will be Chinese short-story author Dorothy Tse, the award-winning Mexican novelist Álvaro Enrigue and Italian satirical writer and poet Stefano Benni.

Exploring the theme ’17,000 Islands of Imagination’, the first-reveal program spans five days of over 85 panel discussions, intimate literary lunches, workshops, night parties, poetry slams and food tours, with more to be announced in the coming weeks.

Exploring the Festival’s lighter side will be Australian comedian and one-half of the comedy duo Fear of a Brown Planet Nazeem Hussain, co-writer of the popular New Zealand television series bro’Town Oscar Kightley and acclaimed Indonesian producer, director and stand-up comedian Raditya Dika.

Heading the line-up will be American literary giant and Pulitzer Prize laureate Michael Chabon, award-winning British foreign correspondent Christina Lamb, founders of the acclaimed Lonely Planet series Tony and Maureen Wheeler, and celebrated Pakistani author of How to get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia Mohsin Hamid.

Founder & Director of the not-for-profit Festival, Janet DeNeefe, said that whilst the UWRF might be held in Indonesia, it’s a platform for people from all walks of life to come together and discuss the topical issues that affect us all.

Hot names on the literary-award scene, the Festival will play host to recently long-listed for the Man Booker Prize for his novel The Fishermen Chigozie Obioma, winner of the 2015 Miles Franklin Award Sofie Laguna, and 2015 Stella Prize winner for her debut novel The Strays Emily Bitto.

“In an increasingly frantic and globalised world, creating a space where we can meet, listen and learn with people is more important than ever before,” she said. “UWRF is immensely proud to be a platform for voices of all backgrounds, experiences and passions to come together and share their stories with the world”.

C/R/U-8 July 15

Sharing remarkable stories from lesser-known places, UWRF will also welcome Chinese-American memoirist Anchee Min, North Korea defector and TED-talk sensation Hyeonseo Lee, British-Chinese journalist and social advocate Xue Xinran and Palestinian scholar Mazin Qumsiyeh.

Tickets to the UWRF are now on sale via the website: www. ubudwritersfestival.com

KISSABLE LIPS I’ve always envied Angelina Jolie’s sensuous plump lips, wishing that my thin lips were half as succulent looking. Thanks to ARC Anti-aging Beauty Clinics having a special promotion for September on lip ¿ller I was able to ful¿l my dream of luscious kissable lips. After a consultation with Dr. Chandra, she determined that Teosyal Kiss Dermal Filler would be the most appropriate for me, giving full-looking lips that would last 9-12 months. The other options were Restylane which gives a natural look for a year or Juvederm which gives a little plumpness for a year.

One of their most popular treatments for men and women is Human Growth Hormone replacement therapy (hGH) which has become a big hit with Australian clients. Most people begin this therapy after the age of ¿fty. By the age of 31 the hGH falls about 24% per decade so by the age of 60, most people only have about 80% less hGH than when they were 20.

ARC Clinics ¿rst opened in 2002 and I’ve watched them expand their services over the years from a medical spa offering the basics of Dermal Fillers and Botox to now with an array of laser and IPL therapies for skin rejuvenation treatments, hair removal and sun damaged skin to a range of anti-aging Beauticians Facials. This spacious and modern medi-spa has two levels with large designated rooms for treatments. Original paintings adorn the walls throughout the spa. In the comfortable waiting lounge at the back is an assortment of teas and coffee for self-service and a multitude of the latest magazines to peruse through while you wait for your treatment.

B EAUTY D ISCOVERY ACNE What is acne? It starts when greasy secretions from the skin’s sebaceous glands (oil glands) plug the tiny openings for hair follicles (plugged pores). If the openings are large, the clogs take the form of blackheads: small, À at spots with dark centers. If the openings stay small, the clogs take the form of whiteheads: small, Àesh-colored bumps. Both types of plugged pores can develop into swollen, tender inÀammations or pimples or deeper lumps or nodules. Nodules associated with severe cases of acne (cystic acne) are ¿rm swellings below the skin’s surface that become inÀ amed, tender, and sometimes infected. Although acne remains largely a curse of adolescence, about 20% of all cases occur in adults. Acne commonly starts during puberty between the ages of 10 and 13 and tends to be worse in people with oily skin. Teenage acne usually lasts for ¿ve to 10 years, normally going away during the early 20s. It occurs in both sexes, although teenage boys tend to have the most severe cases. Women are more likely than men to have mild to moderate forms into their 30s and beyond. Acne lesions are most common on the face, but they can also occur on the neck, chest, back, shoulders, and upper arms. What Causes Acne? Nobody is completely sure what causes acne. Here are some undercover acne triggers : • Hormones. Common acne in teenagers starts with an increase in hormone production. During puberty, both boys and girls produce high levels of androgens, the male sex hormones that include testosterone. Testosterone signals the body to make more sebum, the oil produced in the skin’s oil glands. • Heredity: If one of your parents had severe acne, it is likely that your acne will be more dif¿cult to control. • Pressure: In some patients, pressure from helmets, chin straps, collars, suspenders, and the like can aggravate acne. • Drugs: Some medications may cause or worsen acne, such as those containing iodides, bromides, or oral or injected steroids (either the medically prescribed prednisone [Deltasone, Orasone, Prednicen-M, Liquid Pred] or the steroids that bodybuilders or athletes sometimes take). Other drugs that can cause or aggravate acne are anticonvulsant medications and lithium (Eskalith, Lithobid). Most cases of acne, however, are not drug related. • Occupations: In some jobs, exposure to industrial products like cutting oils may produce acne. • Cosmetics: Some cosmetics and skin-care products are pore clogging (“comedogenic”). On the many available brands of skin-care products, it is important to read the list of ingredients and choose those which have water listed ¿rst or second if you are concerned about acne. These “water-based” products are usually best for those with acne. Types of Acne : ƒ Whiteheads - remain under the skin and are very small ƒ Blackheads - clearly visible, they are black and appear on the surface of the skin. Remember that a blackhead is not caused by dirt. Scrubbing your face vigorously when you see blackheads will not help ƒ Papules - visible on the surface of the skin. They are small bumps, usually pink ƒ Pustules - clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are red at their base and have pus at the top ƒ Nodules - clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are large, solid pimples. They are painful and are embedded deep in the skin ƒ Cysts - clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are painful, and are ¿lled with pus. Cysts can easily cause scars.

19 August - 02 September, 2015

Since everyone gets acne at some time, the right time to treat it is when it bothers you or when the potential for scarring develops. This can be when severe acne Àares suddenly, for mild acne that just won’t go away, or even when a single pimple decides to show up the week before your prom or wedding. The decision is yours. The following are some tips for looking after your skin if you suffer with acne: • Wash your face about twice each day. Do not wash it more often. Use a mild soap made especially for people with acne, and warm water. Do not scrub the skin. Experts advise the use of an OTC lotion which contains benzoyl peroxide • Don’t try to burst the pimples. You may push the infection further down, causing more blocking and worse swelling and redness. Popping pimples makes scarring more likely • If you have to get rid of a pimple for some event, such as a wedding, or public speaking occasions, ask a specialist to treat it for you • Try to refrain from touching your face with your hands. When you are on the phone try not to let the receiver touch your face - there may be sebum and skin residue on it • Keep your hands clean, wash them regularly • Always wash your hands before touching your face. This includes before applying lotions, creams or makeup • Glasses should regularly be cleaned. They will collect sebum and skin residue • You skin needs to breathe. If your acne is on your back, shoulders or chest try wearing loose clothing. Tight garments, such as headbands, caps and scarves should be avoided - if you have to wear them make sure they are cleaned regularly • Don’t go to sleep with makeup on.

Treating more severe cases of acne • If your acne is more severe, you should consider seeing a dermatologist - a skin specialist. The specialist may prescribe a treatment such as benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid, as well as adapalene. Prescription medications for acne are presented in many forms, such as creams, lotions, etc. Your dermatologist will decide what is best for you. • You may be prescribed an oral or topical antibiotic. Antibiotics can combat the growth of bacteria and reduce inflammation. Most commonly Erythromycin and Tetracycline are prescribed as antibiotics for the treatment of acne. • Hormonal therapies or the combined oral contraceptive pill can also be effective in women who have acne. However, the progestogen-only pill or contraceptive implant can sometimes make acne worse. Many of these treatments can take two to three months before they start to work. It’s important to be patient and persist with a recommended treatment, even if there is no immediate effect.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

C/Ns/G-4 Feb. 15

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

ROHYPNOL RAPE Her name was Alexandra, a 22-year-old Russian girl on holidays in Bali. She had just graduated from University and came to Bali to attend a friends wedding. She took time out to celebrate with friends before she returned to her home country, a new job and her fiancé.

The combination can produce extremely low blood pressure, respiratory depression, difficulty breathing, coma, or even death. Rohypnol also may produce complete or partial amnesia (memory loss) about the events that occur after it is ingested.

This was the email I received. (THIS IS A TRUE STORY. The names of those involved have been changed for confidential reasons).

What does Rohypnol look like?

“Saturday night I was out celebrating with friends. We had a few drinks and started dancing. After this I remember nothing until I found myself on a beach, with a local guy on top of me, with several other guys standing by. He did not use condoms. My fiancé and I had committed to refrain from sexual relations until after we married. I am now so confused about the risk of pregnancy, infection and how to tell my fiancé and family…please help.” Alexandra had been raped. She has no idea who the men were. It will not be reported as she can hardly remember what happened. Alexandra is not young, foolish or stupid, however nothing could protect her after that one drink that was laced with the drug ROHYPNOL. Alexandra will need a full STD screen work up including tests for Hepatitis B & C and HIV (total cost approximately 2.5 million rupiah). She cannot be cleared of these diseases until repeat testing for up to 6 months after the event. She now faces the usual emotions following sexual assault such as anger, guilt, depression, as well as the dilemma of telling her fiancé, and close friends. She would also be well advised to seek post-exposure therapy for HIV and hepatitis, as we can safely assume that the perpetrators of this crime were far from being decent people, and certainly not the type to consider “safe sexual practice”. In a nutshell this girls life has been made a living hell by one stupid mistake. She left her drink on the bar for more than 3 seconds. I am hearing this story all too often. Mostly from young women, however I have heard of several cases where men or boys have been the victims. What is Rohypnol? Rohypnol is a potent sedative. The physical effects of the drug may be noticeable within 15 to 30 minutes after ingestion. The effects may last for many hours. Rohypnol may cause drowsiness, confusion, impaired motor skills, dizziness, disorientation, dis-inhibition, impaired judgment, and reduced levels of consciousness. You may look and act like someone who is drunk. Your speech may be slurred, and you may have difficulty walking. Or you may be rendered unconscious. It is very dangerous to mix Rohypnol with alcohol or other drugs.

Rohypnol pills are white and round. Sometimes the pills may be ground up or crushed into a powder. Rohypnol is occasionally found in liquid form. If Rohypnol is dropped into a drink, it may dissolve and become “invisible.”

C/He/I-24 June 15

How is Rohypnol being abused? Across the country, there are reports of people “dosing” other people without their knowledge by dropping whole or crushed Rohypnol tablets into a drink. The drink can be a soda, juice, punch, beer, or any alcoholic beverage. When Rohypnol is dissolved in a drink, it is colorless, tasteless, and odorless. You cannot see it, taste it, or smell it. Therefore, if you consume a “dosed” drink, you are likely to be totally unaware that you are being drugged. Naturally the best way to avoid this happening to you is not to accept drinks from strangers and not to leave any drinks unattended at any time. Even barmen have been known to act on the behalf of the perpetrators and will accept payment in order to dose the victim’s drink. If you do feel that you have been “dosed” and you are feeling excessively “drowsy” or “silly” or if you feel that you are “merrier” than you should be for the amount of alcohol that you have consumed: • Tell a friend quickly before the drug has time to take full effect. • If you are alone telephone someone who can come to get you quickly, then lock yourself in the bathroom (sit yourself down so that you won’t fall if you pass out. Don’t forget to tell your friend that’s coming to get you where you are!) • If your friend is not interested or cannot be found, tell a security guard. If he brushes you off as a “drunk”, fall to the ground clutching your chest and scream “heart attack”. This should get his attention!

She now runs her own Private Practice & Mothers & Babies center at her Community Health Care office in Sanur.

Fashion Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Stephen Dalton: Lombok Traveler Stephen Dalton was born in North Carolina in 1963 while his parents were in graduate school. His father worked as a civilian for the U.S. Navy, so the family moved around a lot. By the time Stephen was eight, they had moved eight times. This perhaps explains why he’s so comfortable with pulling up stakes. After earning a BA at the University of Chicago and an MA at San Francisco State, he taught conceptual mathematics, Spanish, English and economic history, among other subjects. From 2009 to 2014, he taught English and lectured on economic history at Ryukoku and Osaka Gakuin University. In 2014, Stephen returned to the U.S., taking on a position as program coordinator at the English Studies Institute in Berkeley, California What was your childhood like? I’m pretty good at moving. It always feels good and energizing starting up a new place. I know how to adapt and reinvent myself. The kind of childhood I had gave me a bit of wanderlust. When making a move, I could always relate to songs like Fly by Night by Rush and Jetliner by Steve Miller. Where did you live? Because my dad worked for the navy, wherever we lived - whether it is Florida, Virginia or California - it was always near the water. I remember when I was five years old in Palm Beach I would walk for miles along the beach. In those days kids were truly free range. I doubt that would ever happen today. What was your first time in Indonesia? When I was working in Japan as a university lecturer in 2011, I needed a place to go during an academic break in August. Kyoto, where I taught, is reputed to have the worst weather in Japan. It sits on an aquifer, so it’s clammy and humid. Ten months a year is just terrible, but especially in August. My Garuda flight to Bali was 18 hours late, so right off my trip started as an adventure. Where did you stay? A friend had suggested Three Sisters, which was OK, but it was the peak of the tourist season and Kuta was crawling with tourists. I had a better chance of learning French there than Bahasa Indonesia. I needed a break, so I headed for Padangbai. I loved it! I stayed at the north end of the beach. I took a cooking class. What took you to Lombok? On the way to Padangbai I met a Belgian woman who recommended Kuta Beach, a surfer seacoast town in southern Lombok. My Lonely Planet travel guide said that it was “unprepossessing,” but had great waves. I took the big ferry over to Lombok. From Lembar, I shared a taxi with other travelers down to Kuta. What was your first impression? It was on a weekend, so everywhere was packed. I went to a Japanese-owned hotel, thinking that I could make a connection with the Japanese owner. But he was very rude. Japanese are unfailingly polite in their own country, but this is often not the case for overseas Japanese. At the time, I

was reading Enigma of Power, a must read for anyone who wants to understand how things get done in Japan. This book helped me understand this apparently contradictory behavior. Luckily the Indonesian clerks were friendly, so it wasn’t as bad as it might have been. What did you do? Kuta was a bit trashy. There were no waves at the beach in town, so I looked for a motorbike to rent in order to explore. You have to be careful about who you rent from. One guy would rent you the bike, but then his brother would steal it back. I eventually decided to go up to Senggigi by way of Mataram, the capital. This was my first encounter with Ramadan. The droning calls to prayer from mosque loudspeakers were heard everywhere. I couldn’t get lunch. Finally found a KFC in a mall and ate behind a black curtain. Did you ever make it over to the Gili Islands? That’s where I was headed. When I arrived in Senggigi, the jumping off place for the Gilis, touts offered a volcano trek and boats to the island. Because it’s a tourist town, Ramadan didn’t exist. I loved the cheap pickup truck bemo that would take you everywhere and where you’d always meet someone interesting. I just happened upon a place to stay called Lina’s at the south end of the Senggigi strip for only $10 per night. The only downside was that at night you could hear the faint thumping of a nearby disco. If you turned up the a/c you couldn’t hear it.

So you stayed in Senggigi instead? Yes! Senggigi was perfect for me. My hotel was right on the beach, a bit distant from the congestion and noise of the main resort area, yet had all the conveniences - coffee shops, great baked goods and an organic restaurant with the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. I rented a push bike and took a tour inland to the northern outskirts of Mataram, then headed up Jl. H. Mansur, climbed up to the peak, took pictures of the monkeys there, and looped back to Senggigi via the Northern coast road. I bought a beautiful painting from a Japanese expat. What was the highlight? My girlfriend from Taiwan showed up. Our original plan was to go to Bali but I convinced her that Lombok was far less touristy. She took a flight to the island and after some difficulty – it was basically a bad bus service of the air – she at last arrived. I upgraded the room to $15 per night. I did the bike trip again with her, this time by motorbike. The remaining five days on Lombok was very romantic. My girlfriend loved it!

C/G/G-5 August 15

So in the end you never visited Bali? We took a boat to Padangbai. The boat pulled up right in front of our Senggigi hotel. Included in the price of the Perama transport service was a ride up to Ubud. At first we stayed in a guesthouse that she didn’t like, but when we moved to guesthouse run by a family of artists, harmony was restored. Our room overlooked the river gorge just before the bridge to Campuhan. What did you do in Ubud? We took a walk in the countryside south of Ubud. My girlfriend is a city girl who is deathly afraid of snakes. Dogs accosted us, so walking along pathways used by farmers frightened her. Still, Ubud was enjoyable for us. After a few days, we took the Perama service back to Kuta. I had warned her not to hold out high hopes for Kuta. After just 30 minutes of people and exhaust, she said, “Kuta is a little terrible.” What advice can you give to travelers? Don’t visit Bali in August. If you’re traveling with a Taiwanese woman, always stay in at least a two-star hotel. Find the place that works for you. Just because everybody else is going to a place, it doesn’t mean that it’s right for you. Take Senggigi for example. For most people it’s just a transit point, a way station. But for us our stay on the beach there was the highlight of our whole trip. Finally, if you don’t know what the word “unprepossessing” means look it up. In guidebook speak, “unprepossessing” means “ugly.” For anyone interested in being considered for Siapa, please contact: <pakbill2003@yahoo.com> Copyright © 2015 Bill Dalton You can read all past articles of Siapa at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Indonesia – the Land of ‘Do What you Want’ Do you ever feel that you can ‘do what you want’ in Indonesia more easily than you can back home? By copying local habits (examples of ‘bad’ culture), you can get away with things that you could never do back home: ride the wrong way down a motorway, go helmet-less on a motorbike, smoke in non-smoking areas, burn trash, dump garbage in empty lots and waterways, ignore traffic lights, signals and laws, bribe an official to get something done, open a business (or anything) without a licence, have farm animals in city and suburban areas, play loud music at any hour, and ignore all building codes, regulations and zoning laws. For many, this is something ‘special’ about Indonesia that people miss back home. For some, it is not enough and feel they need to add more by adding their own special ‘foreigner flavor’ to the anarchy by: drinking alcohol as you walk down the streets, wear a g-string in a department store, buy magic mushrooms on the streets, or going half-naked to a government department.

C/CE/G-19 August 15

For those of you who have never lived for an extended period in Indonesia and are used to all the rules and regulations in your own countries, it may surprise you to learn that the law in Indonesia is no law. In addition, to a large extent, the ones with the money (and therefore the power), win. It also means that they can do even more of what they want. I’ve often thought, “Why is it that Indonesia is so lawless?” You only have to look to the top, to those who in a family would be the parents or the elders: those who are supposed to set an example to those younger, less ‘educated’, less influential, and with less power than themselves. Historically, the government has not set a good example. Endemic corruption and blatant disrespect for law by officials simply says to the people: we do it, so you can too. Yet somehow in all this lawless chaos, Indonesia still functions; albeit on a shoe string. Those who wield power – including ourselves in a foreign lawless land – have the knowledge and understanding that by ‘doing what you want’ is only going to perpetuate the downwards spiral that many analysts see Indonesia is in at the moment.

BA Feature Article

Janice Mantjika: Tourism Pioneer Jan’s Tours - the ¿rst independent travel agency in Suharto-era Bali – opened in 1968 at a time when Bali’s only airport had no runway lights, the control tower could only contact the pilot 30 minutes before landing and aircraft had to use parachutes to brake. Janice and her Balinese husband Djati Mantjika borrowed money from American missionaries to make their ¿rst signboard. There were no faxes or emails, no Englishspeaking guides, the roads were potholed tracks and the only high-rise hotel on the whole island was the Bali Beach in Sanur. The Mantjikas hung around Denpasar’s Jalan Veteran to pitch tourists and hitched rides with government-owned Natour Tour agents out to the airport to meet disembarking passengers. Clients were driven around in huge lumbering American cars, which the hippies called “the Heavies in the Chevies.” During the horri¿c year of 1966, Janice and Djati braved a curfew and gun¿re to reach Sanglah hospital for the delivery of their second child. Born and bred in New Zealand, the daughter of a stonemason, Janice was working at The Dominion, a national newspaper, when she met her husband to be in 1958 while he was attending school in New Zealand. They married in 1962 after Djati graduated with a degree in Agricultural Science. In 1963, they had their ¿rst child, a daughter. In 1964, the family moved to Bali where they lived through the political upheavals of the mid-1960s. A forerunner of Bali’s nascent tourism industry, Jan’s Tours & Travel Service Ltd. is still operating. Janice now lives in Batubulan where she gardens, spends time with her grandchildren and is writing the story of her remarkable life to be published this year.

that my mother in law had stored under her kitchen Àoor, a relic of the Japanese occupation of Bali during World War II. Why didn’t you just leave the county? Well, that’s exactly what we did. In late 1966, I took our two children to New Zealand for a break and to earn some money as we could barely eat. We had to sell off our clothes, kitchen appliances, record player and precious wedding gifts we had brought with us from New Zealand to survive. In 1967, things started settling down a little. On my return to Bali from New Zealand, my husband had moved from University housing to a rented house in the same street where the Government Art Centre was to be built, at the time known as Jl. Abian Kapas. We had brought a refrigerator from New Zealand with our belongings in 1964, but because we had no electricity we swapped it for a section of land in Denpasar. Later we swapped that land for land in Abian Kapas. On that land we built our house and of¿ce, the same location where our of¿ce is today. How did you get into the tourism business? In those days, teaching and lecturing did not pay much. We ¿rst got into tourism out of sheer desperation, and more or less by accident. Djati and the few other lecturers who spoke enough English would take foreign visitors sightseeing, and to the university. Ibu Gedong, her husband Pak Oka and Djati talked about earning money leading tour groups. By this time in the late 1960s, the political situation was becoming more stable and tourists were beginning to visit. The tourism industry was in its infant stages, very basic with few Balinese able to speak English. In 1968, I worked for a few weeks for a man who had opened a tour agency. I found him to be dishonest, so I left and, together with an Art Shop, we got a license to operate our own tour and travel agency, Jan’s Tours.

When did you start taking groups? In 1970 we signed a contract with a travel agent in Australia who sent us groups of tourists. They loaned us money to build an office-house, to be paid back in services carried out for their groups over a few years. We moved into the new house the very day we brought our baby girl Lisa, our fourth child, home from the hospital. By this time several Qantas Àights from Sydney and Melbourne and Thai International Àights from S.E. Asia were landing in Bali. Flights were still irregular. Due to limited length of the runway, Thai International aircraft had to use a parachute shooting out the back to brake. When did tourism start to really take off? In 1960s, only a few small hotels had sprang up and the high rise Hotel Bali Beach was opened. By the mid-1970s tourism in Bali began to develop at a quicker pace. We slowly built our b u s i n e s s u p . We purchased coaches and other vehicles and trained tour guides. More hotels sprang up in Sanur and Kuta, international Àights increased, and apart from a few bungalows in Sanur and the Bali Beach Hotel, and a few that had started earlier in Ubud, accommodation was mainly in losmen (family homestays). Now tourists had the luxury of hotels with running water, private bathrooms and in some cases even air-conditioning! Please tell us about your involvement with BIWA.

Where were you during the political violence of 1965 and 1966?

What was it like running a tour business in those early days?

When the so-called Communist coup started with the killings of seven generals of the armed forces on September 30th, I was pregnant, we had little money, and it was dif¿cult to ¿nd food. At the time we were living in the lecturer’s complex on the campus of Udayana University in Sanglah. There were no communications – no telephone; telegrams would sometimes arrive, other times they would vanish, and communicating with friends or family was even more dif¿cult. Mail was censored and took six weeks or months to reach or arrive from Australia, USA, New Zealand or any other destination. Killings were happening all around us. A night curfew was imposed and by day it was dangerous to go from village to village as anyone not known in a village was considered a possible enemy. Fear, suspicion and hunger were all pervasive.

The birth of our second child, Lawrence, in January 1966. Transport to the hospital in Sanglah was dif¿cult. In labor, I decided our motorcycle was not a comfortable option. We ¿nally managed to raise a woman brave enough to open her door at night and loan us a car. A curfew was in force; shots were ¿red at our car tires to make us stop. I Àapped a white tea towel out the window. This was all agonizing, as I was about to give birth. All through most of that year the killings continued. There was a big cholera outbreak due to decomposing bodies indiscriminately “buried” and then dug up by dogs or after the coverings over corpses were washed away by tides if bodies had been dumped on the beach.

Very difficult! At first we had no capital and borrowed money to pay for the signboard and to connect a phone. Telephones were very rare and more often than not did not work. The only other communication service was by telegram. Public transport was only by three-wheel bemo. Roads were not roads but bumpy dusty tracks. My husband and one or two other lecturers who could speak English became tour guides. Our ¿rst vehicles were the large ¿shtailed two-door American cars. With such terrible roads and poor shock absorbers, our passengers were bounced around with their heads hitting the roof. The airport was tiny, the runway very short and it had no runway lights at night. The control tower only had contact when an aircraft was 30 minutes away. We never knew whether a Àight would land or not. After dusk, we knew nothing could land and headed home again.

Besides being involved with the tour business and ¿nding donors and recruiting volunteers to help renovate shacks for disabled persons for the Yayasan Yakkum Bali, I’m writing my memoir, which I hope to launch at the Ubud Readers & Writers Festival this October. This year will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the G30s uprising and a part of my book will be about my impressions and experiences and what life was like during that terrifying time.

What did you do to protect your family?

Were there many travel agencies on Bali at the time?

Where can readers learn more?

There really was nothing you could do. You didn’t know who was friend and who was foe in those awful times. For some time everything stopped but then life slowly resumed. Djati went back to teaching English at the Hotel Bali Beach and lectured at the university. I, my 3-year-old daughter Cindy, and Lawrence the baby didn’t leave the house for some months. It was just too scary and the sights en route too horri¿c. Djati arranged for a rather frail elderly man from his village to “guard” us until Djati got back from working, just before the curfew started each evening. His only weapon was a rusty old spear

Very few. They could be counted on one hand. We were among the ¿rst. None of us had capital to promote abroad. Djati and I would carry one child each and walk the few kilometers from our house to Jl. Veteran in Denpasar. There was a clock in the middle of crossroads in those days. The governmentowned company Natour, Bali’s very ¿rst agency, had an of¿ce nearby. We would hitch a ride with a Natour car to the airport and hustle tourists, acting as the driver’s interpreters and tour guides. Djati and I had a bit of an edge with our knowledge of English.

For anyone interested in reading a little about the drama of life during the conÀict of 1965-1966 and tourism in the late 1960s early 1970s, a copy of my book my be pre-ordered by contacting: jmantjika@gmail.com with a cc to Sarita, saritaksu. editions@gmail.com.

What is your most vivid memory?

In the late 1970s there was a bad earthquake in North Bali, leaving some areas razed to ground. Along with Dr. and Mrs. Otong Wirawan, Ibu Didiet Malakiano and several other Indonesians and Westerners living here, we began fund raising for those whose homes had been destroyed. Out of this catastrophe, BIWA (Bali International Women’s Association) was born, without any of us even realizing it. I remained active in BIWA for many years and even did some dancing in a few charity shows we performed—I dressed up in a frilly skirt and did the Can Can, performed a Mexican hat dance and even played a prince in Cinderella! Funds raised were donated to various foundations for earthquake victims, children with impaired hearing and other worthy causes. What are you working on now?

Local News Indonesian Alcohol Market Faces Price Headache After Tariff Hike A steep increase in Indonesia’s import tariffs on wine and spirits could more than double prices that were sky-high already, denting demand and raising the risk of smuggling & home made liquor, drinks industry executives say. Under new tariffs that came into effect on July 23, importers have to pay 90 percent on the value of wine and 150 percent on spirits. Importers previously paid a fixed amount per liter. The new ruling is the latest blow to a $300 million industry already reeling from an April ban on alcohol sales at minimarts. Two Islamic parties have also proposed legislation to ban consumption of alcohol in the country with the world’s largest Muslim population. “It’s quite a shock to the industry,” Dendy Borman, a board member at the International Spirit and Wine Association, told Reuters in a phone interview. Foreign companies that sell wine and spirits in Indonesia include Diageo, Pernod Ricard, Remy Cointreau and Bacardi & Co. Prices for wine and spirits in Indonesia had already surged by 140.5 percent and 154.4 percent, respectively, from 2009 to 2014, partly due to the weakening rupiah, according to market research firm Euromonitor International. A 750-ml bottle of Absolut vodka imported before the tariff hike was selling at Jakarta supermarkets last week for at least 700,000 rupiah (USD $51.71) compared with about USD $50.54 in Singapore and USD $18 in Chicago. Retail prices for imported wine and spirits will now rise further, in a range from 15 percent to more than 100 percent, the association’s Borman said. “Such high prices

for imported brands might give incentive for some to fill in the gap by producing fake liquor at very cheap prices,” he said. Critics say that if the increase in tariffs on alcoholic drinks and a raft of other products was designed to protect the local industry, it makes little sense because Indonesian-made goods cannot directly compete with the higher-quality imports. “Addressing economic decline by limiting imports is self-destructive and will be detrimental for the future as exports depend on imports,” said Jakob Friis Sorensen, former chairman of the European Business Chamber of Commerce in Indonesia. “Right now what Indonesia needs are clear and simple rules around trade, not further restrictions.” Coordinating Minister of Economics Sofyan Djalil said the cost increases for alcohol would not be as much as the new tariffs suggested because the hike was accompanied by the removal of quotas. “We believe that excessive consumption of alcohol is not good for the country, for the society,” Sofyan told Reuters on Friday. “But because we remove the quota, the rent that was captured by a quota holder is simply not there anymore.” Still, businesses will have no choice but to eventually pass on the increased costs to consumers, said Ramon Meijer, general manager at the Lan Na Thai bar and restaurant in Jakarta, where wine and spirits make up around 40 percent of monthly sales. “For us the costs are too difficult to bear,” Meijer said. (August 10th 2015)

Drought Grips Indonesia - Including Bali The Indonesian National Disaster Agency has said that at least 102 districts in Indonesia are experiencing drought due to the lack of natural water supplies and the ongoing dry season. The head of public relations for the agency, Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, said there is currently a reduction of some 20 billion cubic meters of water in some areas. “To date, droughts have occurred in 721 sub-districts in 102 districts or cities of 16 provinces in Indonesia,” Sutopo said here on Saturday (1/8). The government noted that provinces that are suffering from droughts have been located in Central Java, West Java, East Java, Lampung, South Sumatra and Bali. The droughts also affect 111,000 hectares of agricultural fields, which are now parched lands. The agency predicted the condition would expand to other areas. The drought in Indonesia has been ongoing for more than ten years. “According to the National Development Planning Board’s research in 2003, there were 92 districts in Java Island which suffered from a lack of water from one to eight months of the year,” Sutopo said. Furthermore, at least 38 areas out of 92 districts have water shortages more than eight months each year. Indonesian Vice President Jusuf Kalla said the construction of water reservoirs in several areas in Indonesia has become part of an important effort to handle drought. Kalla said the accelerated construction of water reservoirs was of great importance. East Javas Pacal, Gondang, and Prijetan reservoirs have dried up as their water is mostly used to irrigate local rice fields, an official from the Bengawan Solo Water Resources Department stated here on Thursday (6/8).

“Currently, the exit gates of the three reservoirs in our work area are shut as there is no more water left in them,” affirmed the Hirwono. The remaining water in the reservoirs is left there to maintain them, otherwise their structure will incur damage, he noted. Hirwono urged the farmers not to plant rice during the current dry season, as there would be no water to irrigate their fields. Hirwono stated that the current drought has been triggered by the “El Nino” phenomenon, which has led to an early dry season, given that the rains had stopped since June, unlike the previous year where it continued to rain in the dry season. According to the Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG), the rainy season will start as usual in October-November. Agriculture Minister Amran Solomon said at a press conference at the Ministry of Agriculture, Jakarta, Monday (10/8) that the government intended to implement “artificial rain” at some point in the response to drought. Amran said artificial rain would be implemented in endemic drought regions of Indonesia such as West Java, Central Java, East Java, South Sulawesi, South Sumatra, Lampung and West Nusa Tenggara. Ground water reserves in Bali are below 20 percent. This condition is believed to be getting worse. It is predicted that a crisis will occur by 2020, because there are no mitigation and prevention measures in response to this situation. High demand for clean water in Bali, especially in densely populated urban areas and tourism areas has resulted in reserves of clean water reaching critical levels. (August 11th 2015)

Rabies Claims Record 12 Lives in Bali Rabies is on the rise again in Bali as the disease has already claimed 12 lives this year, a significant increase over last year’s two fatalities and 2013’s one. The latest case was reported on Monday, as 24-year-old Komang Kartawan was suspected to have died from rabies after a puppy bit a finger on his left hand last month. He died at Sanglah Hospital in Denpasar according to head of Bali Provincial Health Agency, I Ketut Suarjaya, on Tuesday (28/7). Since 2008 there have been a total of 160 people die from the disease, said the official. He said rabies has been rising again on the resort island since earlier this year. Prior to that the local government had boasted that this year the province would be free from rabies. “We should revise the target now,” Suarjaya acknowledged. Buleleng has the highest number of fatalities, with five victims, followed by Bangli where two people have died. Other cases have been in Badung, Tabanan, Gianyar, Karangasem and Klungkung. To help curb the disease, Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika has implemented a culling of wild dogs across the island, a policy that many NGOs and animal lovers have been criticizing. Responding to the critics Pastika said that the Balinese were different from Europeans who nourished their pets properly and gave them regular vaccinations. In Bali, most people leave their dogs on the street without proper care. (July 31st 2015) Bali Host’s World Indigenous People’s Day 2015 The Alliance of Archipelago Indigenous People (AMAN) held an event to commemorate the Worlds Indigenous Peoples Day in Bali, on August 9, 2015. The Worlds Indigenous Peoples Day was established by the United Nations and is commemorated as an international day every August 9, AMANs Deputy Secretary General Rukka Sombolinggi stated during a press conference. The event was held at Mount Batur Bali, which has been recognized as a Worlds Heritage and one of the Global Geoparks designated by the UNESCO. Sombolinggi explained that the commemoration of the 2015 Worlds Indigenous Peoples Day is based on the theme, “Ensuring Indigenous Peoples Health and Well-being” since the indigenous communities have always been marginalized with regard to national development. The theme puts the spotlight on the issue of the indigenous peoples access to healthcare services, as improving the health of indigenous people remains a critical challenge for the indigenous communities, member states, and the United Nations. According to a survey, Indonesia alone has no less than 70 million indigenous people, with only 17 million being registered as members of AMAN. (August 10th 2015) French Company Offers to Manage Bali Garbage French-owned waste management company Sodaco Satarem has offered to cooperate with the Bali government to take over management of the Suwung landfill site. The site is working over capacity, and is not able to accommodate the daily amount of garbage generated. Manager of Sodaco Energy Indonesia, Johan Marino, made the announcement during a meeting with the Deputy Governor of Bali, Ketut Sudikerta at the governor’s office on Thursday (6/8). “Until now Bali has not supported an adequate level of solid waste management. If not immediately treated, we are worried this trash will lead to more serious problems,” Marino stated.Soda Satarem has already had success managing waste in countries such as in Africa and China, and have subsequently seen the potential for better waste management at Suwung. The proposal was met with encouragement from Vice-Governor Sudikerta, who promised to bring up the issue with the relevant government representatives. According Sudikerta, the average volume of waste going into Suwung landfill is around 1500 tons per day. (August 8th 2015)

Court Rejects Sex Abuse Lawsuit Against International School

New Grade of Gasoline Launched in Indonesia State-owned energy company Pertamina has launched a new grade of gasoline called Pertalite, in Indonesia. On Friday (24/07), the new (unsubsidized) fuel was sold for the first time in the cities Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya and Bali for the price of IDR 8,400 (USD $0.62) per liter. Pertalite (90-octane level) is the new produced fuel by Pertamina and will gradually replace the low-octane gasoline known as premium. Pertamina President Director Dwi Soetjipto said Pertalite fuel has been developed to fulfill Indonesian consumer demand for an affordable energy source with better combustion. Premium, which was heavily subsidized until January 2015, is a low-octane fuel (88-octane level) that can damage the engine of cars and motorcycles and results in higher emissions. Most cars sold that have been sold in recent years in Indonesia are designed for higher-grade gasoline. The new Pertalite is regarded the best option for motorcycles and midsize, multi-purpose vehicles. Pertamina also produces and distributes Pertamax (92-octane level) but many Indonesian consumers dislike the high price of this fuel. (July 24th 2015) Three Arrested on Tiger Hunting Charges The Aceh Provincial Police have arrested three residents suspected of hunting a Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) and another suspected of selling the protected animal species. The four suspects were arrested in Aceh Tamiang, Chief of the Certain Crime Sub-directorate of the Special Crime Investigation Directorate of the Aceh Provincial Police Adjunct Senior Commissioner Mirwazi speaking on behalf of Aceh Provincial Police Inspector General M Husein Hamidi said here on Monday (10/8). “Three suspects were arrested at a house in Jambe Rambung village, Bandar Pusaka sub-district, Aceh Tamiang, at 02.30 pm on Saturday,” he said. Mirwazi said the police also seized leather and bone of Sumatran tiger. “The tiger killed by the suspects was 1.5 meters long. The tiger is believed to be five years old or still to be young,” he said. The suspects admitted that they hunted the tiger at forest near Listen village, Pindeng sub-district, Gayo Luwes district on August 6. They trapped the tiger using ropes. (August 10th 2015) Suharto Family Ordered to Pay Back $324m in Embezzled Funds The Supreme Court has ordered the family of former president Suharto to pay back to the state Rp. 4.4 trillion ($324 million) in funds misappropriated during the late strongman’s lengthy reign. The court ruled in favor of the prosecution in a civil case against the now-defunct Supersemar Foundation, controlled by the Suharto family. The ruling, made on July 8 but not announced on the court’s website until Monday (10/8), revised an earlier ruling in 2010 which ordered the family to pay just a tiny fraction of the losses to the state. The court repealed a 1976 government regulation issued by the former president ordering all state-owned banks to set aside 2.5 percent of their profits for the foundation. The court ruled that the funds accumulated since the foundation was established - a total sum of $420 million and Rp 185 billion - were largely embezzled and never used for their stated purpose: education. (August 11th 2015)

A Jakarta court on Monday (10/8) threw out a multi-milliondollar sex abuse lawsuit against an international school, raising hopes for two teachers who were jailed in a related case that had triggered concerns about the justice system in Indonesia. A mother who claimed her son had been sexually abused by staff on school grounds sued the Jakarta Intercultural School, a US Embassy-backed school, for $125 million last year. Monday’s ruling came after two teachers, a Canadian national and an Indonesian national, were jailed in April for abusing kindergarten pupils in a separate criminal case that critics say was fraught with irregularities. Harry Ponto, a lawyer representing the school, told reporters that Monday’s decision could affect those sentences. “Hopefully this case can have a positive impact for our teachers who we believe are innocent,” he said. Many expatriates and diplomats in Jakarta send their children to the school, previously known as the Jakarta International School. “The lawsuit is not accepted because the charges are not clear and the evidence presented is not enough to prove wrongdoing on the part of the school,” Judge Haswandi told a packed Jakarta courtroom. Members of the foreign community welcomed Monday’s verdict, saying it would boost confidence in the judicial system, which is often seen as one of the least credible and consistent institutions in the country.

Water Source Choking on Plastic An observer from the environmental group, International Eco Safety Collaborative Organization (IESCO), Stuart Scott has stated that the existing water source in the mountains of Bali has been polluted due to inorganic waste such as plastic. “Life in the Bali ecosystem is slowly breaking down, because the source of water as the source of life has been contaminated from inorganic waste,” he said at a seminar entitled “Bali Sustainable Environment” in Denpasar on Wednesday (29/7). He observed in the 1970-1980’s era the Bali ecosystem was still mostly natural, because traditions of a fabric-based culture were maintained by its Hinduism. However, according to Scott, as time passed by the use of plastic and the accumulation of inorganic waste that hasn’t been stopped nor recycled, has damaged the environment. “Gradually plastic waste has polluted the environment from upstream to downstream. We can see plastic garbage strewn everywhere, the burning of it accelerates and exacerbates the environmental poisoning, and crops grown consequently are indirectly contaminated with toxic trash,” he said. Scott said these toxins have polluted the environment, already dissolved in the water system, and into foods, which are then absorbed into the human body. “Because it is becoming an unclean environment, humans are attacked by toxins contained in these foods. Thus we see an increase in various diseases such as cancer,” said Scott. According to him, with the decline of human environmental awareness, the quality of human life will go down too. “Concern for the environment must be awakened from the individuals themselves. Nature has provided land and adequate environment, but when people do not care about the environment it will be a future threat,” said Scott. (July 31st 2015)

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE AUGUST 19 - SEPTEMBER 02, 2015

The Sun transitions into the sign of Virgo on the 23rd and promptly meets up with Jupiter who also has recently entered this sign and will remain there until September 2016. Our Virgo theme centres on health and all that is associated with it. It’s the sign of our daily work and service orientation and although an earth sign by element, Virgo has a lot to do with our mental attributes and is often the area of our chart where we focus a lot of our intellectual energy. The downside brings worry and nervousness and obsessive tendencies when out of balance and all of this is expanded upon when Jupiter and the Sun conjoin; the positive and the negative. Mercury enters the sign of Libra on the 27th and will do a retrograde in this sign around the middle of September for 3 weeks. Venus is still retrograde and meets up with Mars also in Leo just before Venus turns direct on the September 6th. The pair will meet again at the beginning of November at 24 degrees Virgo. Our Full Moon in Pisces on the 30th teams up with Neptune and the pair sit directly opposite the Jupiter/Sun combination in Virgo. This is a spiritual dynamic that brings a focus to our mundane reality, the here and now, and to our otherworldly or meditative pursuits. Uranus is harmoniously working with Mars and Venus and revolutionizing relationship and this is supported by Mercury and the North Node conjoined in Libra, communicating nicely. FULL MOON 6 Pisces 06 August 30, 2015 2:35 a.m.

The work and health theme is super highlighted for you and this brings the need for balance around the full moon, when you may want to go a little more internal. This is a good time to start new projects as we head into the fortnight. Mars your ruler is in a fellow fire sign and this gives you all the stamina and passion that you can harness. As it meets with Venus towards the end of the fortnight your relationships will take a turn for the better and those with children will be pleasantly surprised. You’re being supported to open up to a new way of communicating with partners.

You are someone who values friendship and you are about to feel at home with an ever increasing sense of community. By the beginning of September you will have acquired some lovely new friends and companions. The full moon brings to light your emotional values and feelings around the work that you do and the service you provide and yet much of your personal growth work goes on unnoticed and undercover. This coming year will allow you the opportunity to develop some practices that will bring a grounding to your higher ideals. Mercury has entered your sign and received instructions from the karmic node to communicate from your own heart.

You may be thinking a lot about home or family at the moment and some of you will be busy creating a new living space for yourselves. Relationships invariably bring up those early life experiences and memories and these could necessitate a little open and kind communication, particularly around the full moon. Most of us will be feeling pretty sensitive at this time and will be willing to go the extra distance within our primary relationships to understand the other person’s perspective. It takes work to maintain relationship and with the support of friends and even community you can create harmony and balance. A little solitude is also good.

If you have felt like it has been all work and little play then things are about to change for the better. There is the possibility also of a romantic interlude in the workplace or with a colleague. If you have a leaning towards group activities or community based endeavours then the coming year promises to be very fruitful. Meanwhile any unresolved communications could present themselves for a rehash over the coming weeks. This is the time to get clear keeping in mind that the other person’s perspectives and opinions are just as valid as your own. The transformation continues in this regard although you are getting much better at it.

With Mercury in Libra you may find yourself unusually creative over the coming weeks. Some of you will be meeting a new romantic partner and just in time for the Venus/Mars rendezvous which promises a lot of fun and most likely a lot of things in common to talk about. You may find yourself either working from home or doing a lot of work or renovations/building around it, during the next year. Work in the external world will however be highlighted around this full moon and it could be because you want to help others or an offer comes your way, that is too good to refuse or simply feels right.

As a natural born traveller you are ready to jump on a plane at the drop of a hat. Some unexpected or unplanned journeys could be on the cards for you over the coming weeks; it could be work related or romance could strike suddenly and whisk you away. Your focus for the time being is on your career and the family. This full moon brings an awareness of your emotional attachment to those you love and care for and possibly fond memories of earlier times. There’s been an emphasis on community and friends over the past months and now you can see it all with clarity and balance.

This full moon brings things of a higher vibration or you might say spiritual nature to light. For those of you who are studying or travelling this is a great time to learn and to document your discoveries and understandings. Your gift with the intellect is strong now and will continue over this coming year. Being a natural emotionally centred person, your values are strong and so too is your conviction and yet you now have the opportunity to harness the power that comes with creativity and this current mental expansion. There will be meetings with people with whom you have a natural repour; new friendships that seem like old acquaintances.

There will be discussions with significant people with regards to your career or business orientation this fortnight. Remember that there will be a period of mental review coming up so if you don’t get it all right the first time you will have time to procrastinate. The coming year promises to bring more spiritually aligned work your way and bodes well for those undertaking higher educational studies. Travel for work is also a possibility for yet others of you. Venus and Mars join for deep intimacy in your chart and so expect some action and not just romantic interludes. This is the time to enjoy those more hidden aspects of fun.

The Sun and Jupiter are bringing to light your financial status and this may inspire to you to rethink your work priorities. This full moon takes you deep into yourself on an emotional journey of your personal psyche. It promises to expose some mental content and behavioural patterns that are no longer required as your relationships rise to a new level of intimacy. Your creativity and personal flair are receiving a boost from the cosmos as Venus and Mars unite in your sign. Things will really shift gear when that retrograde Venus goes direct once more, the first week of September. Travel plans could then become clear.

The Venus and Mars combination polarizes your Sun in Aquarius and you may find yourself a little more in the spotlight over these coming weeks with a focus on lavishing attention on the significant others in your life. You are no stranger to hard work when the need arises and it could do just that over this next year. Luck is on your side though, for any effort you put in will pay back in kind. With a full moon bringing sentimental attachment to your material acquisitions, this may not be the time to part ways with them, but rather be grateful for what they’ve allowed you to do and achieve.

The Sun joins Jupiter in your sign and this bodes particularly well for those with birthdays this fortnight. It’s a big time for the Virgo natives and a time to focus on your health and work. Lady luck is on your side over the coming year and so a great time to really apply your natural talents and skills. Venus and Mars joining together at the end of the fortnight may bring some unexpected changes to your relationship status. The full moon itself will bring poetic and romantic interludes which will ignite your transformative and sexual desires. You are in the process of developing a new set of values for yourself.

With Neptune your ruler conjoined this full moon you will be feeling very much ‘yourself’ and yet may be called upon to assist others, rather than escape off to your own never never land. Some of you will be ready now to do the work that relationship entails and others will find love and romance in their place of work. Perhaps a new job is about to open for many of you, that allows you to use more of your creative potential. There’s a depth to your communication and people from your past may be appearing for a kind of reconciliation. Some things simply take time to resolve, so no need for impatience.

As I write this email I am looking down to a beautiful, bushland valley stretching towards Jimbaran Bay just south of the airport. Every day there are an increasing number of truckloads of rubbish being dumped into part of the valley, and those people ‘dumping’ obviously think they are hidden from view. What has upset me the most was the recent dumping last of oil which was set alight. The fire emitted huge volumes of putrid, black smoke into the atmosphere that continued to burn for two days without any regard for the health and general wellbeing of those living in the surrounding houses and villas. Having visited Bali for the last six years and falling in love with the island and its people I hope what I have just witnessed can stop. I’m sure that no one wants this beautiful island to end up as a massive rubbish dump but it is certainly heading this way. IT’S TIME TO DO SOMETHING NOW Pamela from Balangan

I ask this question. Why are the government officials and the elders of the Banjars, who are responsible for proper governance in Bali, not providing for proper and efficient rubbish removal and teaching the Balinese people how and where they can dispose of their rubbish responsibly? Surely these people could so easily come together to make this happen quickly.

The Frugal Balinist *Visitor etiquette. Every uniformed of¿cial such as a BIMAS

or BABINSA of¿cial who ¿nds cause to visit your residence in Bali on of¿cial or unof¿cial business should be offered tea and greeted with the utmost courtesy and respect; you never know when you might need his or her help (plus it’s the right thing to do). One of the foremost attributes among Indonesians in social interactions is kesopansantunan, meaning politeness and appropriateness. Remember if you offend by inappropriate behavior, you may never know. Indonesians will rarely tell you what you did wrong.

* Homeschooling in Bali: As an alternative to Bali’s public education at the very bottom of 50 nations, consider Madania Homeschool Centre which serves special needs kids with autism, ADHD, ADD, etc. Contact person: Ibu Agus Binti Khoiriyah (hp 0811-3925-899, email: agusbintikhpsi74@ gmail.com), a well-known psychologist and leader of the Bali chapter of the largest homeschool organization in Indonesia called ASAHPENA (http://asahpena.org). Madania’s Facebook page: www.facebook.com/madania.bali. Cost is set according to each family’s ¿nancial ability. The Graha Visi Independent Homeschool, which serves kids 6 years and older, contact Pak Abraham and Ibu Maria (hp 089-998-99500, email: grahavisi88@gmail.com, yandabraham@gmail.com). Also a member of APRINESIA, their kids graduate with the Cambridge Checkpoint Test and the Indonesian National exam. Another homeschooling group in Canggu teaches geography, math, history, science, English, Art, ICT, sports. Their basic structure follows the Cambridge International Primary Program. This group is good for children who have missed material and have fallen behind, as well as creative kids who simply need more personal one-on-one teacher guidance. For more info, contact hp 081-856-3586, email: baliteacher@yahoo.com. The Homeschooling Primagama program is for kids who have dropped out of high school and need to take their kejar paket (like the GED) in order to get a high school diploma. *Buying dollars. Avoid buying foreign currencies at

banks like Mandiri, BCA, BNI or BII. Transactions in banks end up being more expensive and more hassle. Not only do you have to provide your KTP national ID card, ATM card and NPWP tax number, but also you have to have an account in the bank and you have to buy a materai (stamp) for an additional Rp12,000. Usually more trouble than they’re worth. Recently, the rate for changing US dollars was Rp13,400 at moneychangers but only Rp13,510 at Mandiri Bank. In banks outside tourist areas of Ubud, Sanur, Kuta and Legian and at outlying rural banks, they often have to order dollars 2-3 days ahead of time. Ask ¿rst if they have to order dollars. Also don’t use a hotel or airport to change money. The best-authorized moneychanger is PT Kuta Central or PT Dirgahayu Valuta Prima, a moneychanger at Jl. Danau Tamblingan (also a branch on Jl. Danau Poso). PT Kuta Central, with distinctive blue, red and white signage, has many outlets, some even in Circle K supermarkets.

*Feeding a whole bunch. The easiest and quickest way to

feed a large number of people a tasty and nourishing meal is to serve soto ayam which requires just slivers of chicken, vegetables and broth. Other easy to make ¿lling meals for large gatherings are lawar ayam, lawar klungah, lawar kuwir and lawar babi, savoury spicy soups (with condiments) made in a big pot. A complete meal of 2-3 dishes can be centered around nasi kuning (“yellow rice”), which is delicious and easy to make; it doesn’t go well with vegetables, but goes with ayam siset (chicken strips), kering tempeh (dried tempeh), mie goreng and bihun goreng (noodle dishes). An average size pig for babi guling with all the trimmings can serve 60 people or more. Large batches of bebek betutu or ayam betutu (baked duck or chicken), served with sop ares, or a huge wok full of mie goreng or sayur nangka (jukut nangka) can go a long way in taking care of hunger pangs of a big crowd. Sate lilit made of ¿sh, chicken or pig, served with fresh sambal mentah, can be quickly prepared, grilled and served with rice as easy ¿ller. As for beverages, one carton of 48 Aqua plastic glasses costs only Rp25,000 (Club and Aquaria brands cost even less, Rp15,000/48 glasses), but is devastating for the environment

since they are (always) carelessly discarded. One crate (krat) of popular Tehbotol sweetened tea or refreshing Fruti fruitsweetened water costs only Rp50,000/24 bottles.

*Minitips. *Save water by using the washing machine only

for full loads, using the dishwasher once a day, ¿xing dripping taps, collect rainwater and recycle brown water for the garden. *Thrift is not an affair of the pocket, but an affair of character. *Photo printing is cheaper if you pick up your prints at a toko cetak foto kilat (instant photo shop) in 3-4 days - as low as Rp1,800 per 4 R size print. If you wait 10-15 minutes for them to be printed, they cost Rp3000-Rp4000 per 4 R photo. *Never attempt to change a Àat tire on a hill or soft ground or the car could fall or roll on top of you; the best place to change a Àat is a well-lit gas station (pom bensin) or public parking lot. *berhémat means to be economical. Kalau hendak menyimpan uang, haruslah berhemat membelanjakan uang. “If you want to save money, you have to spend money wisely.” *Synthetic paintbrushes and rollers hold latex-based paints better and apply it more evenly than those made with natural materials. *Training in mindfulness meditation is an inexpensive, drugfree way to improve sleep quality. *Taxi and bus drivers will tell you they don’t have change, so always carry plenty of uang kecil (Rp1000 and Rp5000 notes); if the driver won’t use the meter, take another taxi. *Apple’s iOS 8 has a Medical ID setting that can be accessed without unlocking your phone. *Buying local doesn’t just mean buying “made-in-Bali” products, but also patronizing local restaurants, buying food at local markets and from local vendors and suppliers, buying only clothes made in Indonesia rather than clothes made in China.

*Barbecue safety. Always keep your grill at least two meters away from your house and any trees. If a grill ¿re gets out of control, smother it with salt and shut the lid. Cooking with lighter Àuid makes your food taste like chemicals. Use a thermometer to test doneness. You’re technically not supposed to eat steak that hasn’t reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees, but for a juicier, more tender pink medium rare steak pull it off when it reaches 130 degrees. Avoid Bali Belly! Regularly clean grills that collect bacteria from food residue. Grill grates are easier to clean when hot. If yours are still encrusted from the last cookout, scrub them down with a wiry brush after you light up the grill again. *Alfamarts and Indomarets sell their own branded spoons, forks and knives made of real stainless steel. These minimarkets sell bottled water at low, fair and ¿xed prices. Indomaret brand water is Rp1,800 (330 ml); large bottles Rp3,800. Compare this reasonable price with the Aqua brand, which is Rp5,500 for large bottles. The best tasting bottled water is Nestle (Rp2,900 for small bottle). An Indomaret membership card (Kartu Indomaret) gives discounts whenever you make a purchase; Bali Jaya Kerti and Hardy’s supermarkets give points whenever you make a purchase.

* Postal tips. 1) Stamps for domestic postage are cheap: Rp2,500 to Rp5,000. It costs only Rp5000 to send a biasa letter to Java, but there is no tracking (lacak) o f t h e l e t t e r. Whenever you send a letter, state which class it’s to be sent, either biasa (regular) or lacak (tracking). If you pay just Rp2000 more you can send a registered letter within Indonesia with a tracking number (nomor pengiriman); 2) Always make sure that postal clerks put your stamp on the envelope and stamp it; 3) The Post Of¿ce (Kantor Pos) on Jl. Sunset Road in Kuta, open 24/7, provides POSEXPRESS services, registered domestic one night delivery, but not Weselpos (money transfer) service.

*Beware of strangers. Hiring the freelance labourers – like the guys you see with the shovels standing along Jl. Bypass -isn’t a good idea. You don’t know which ones could tip off friends who may rob your house; probably an extremely small percentage, but not worth taking the chance.

*Is your bamboo a nuisance? Once it has taken root, bamboo is almost impossible to get rid off. BUT if you plant it in a large container, you can divide it into two plants each time it gets big enough which gives you an endless supply of starter

plants to plant where you like without the need to buy any more or to struggle to dig up roots.

* Free

practical info from IDEP Foundation. Hundreds of free eBooks and videos are available in both English and Indonesian on permaculture, gardening, building, ¿rst aid, disaster preparedness as well as animated children’s stories on sustainable living from IDEP Foundation’s You Tube channel. IDEP Foundation YouTube.we#35. Also get the free eBook A Resource Book for Permaculture: Solutions for Sustainable Lifestyles.

*Get money anywhere. BTN banks are not everywhere, but Indonesian post of¿ces are everywhere. PT Pos Indonesia has partnered with state-owned BTN Bank Tabungan Negara (BTN). If you open a BTN account at a post of¿ce, you can deposit and withdraw money from any other Indonesian post of¿ce. But if you open a BTN account in a BTN bank, you can only deposit and withdraw money from another BTN bank. A Westerner can open a BTN rupiah account at a Bali post of¿ce. *Traveling tips. Domestic Àights are cheapest 54 days before departure; airfares tend to be cheapest on Tuesday afternoons and the most expensive time to book is at the last minute. *When booking flights and hotels online, enable private browsing or incognito mode on your device; travel sites often track your previous visits and will raise the price simply because you’ve visited before. *Indonesia Flight App, powered by Tiket.com, partners with Sriwijaya Air, Lion Air, Tigerair, Nam Air, Air Asia, Citilink, Batik Air, Wings Air, Malindo Air, Express Air and Thai Lion Air to give you real-time availability and best available rates. *Write down all your important info in your phone and wallet, so that people will know whom to contact if there’s an emergency. *When packing a suitcase, heavy and bulky items should be spread out evenly on the bottom. To prevent wrinkles and save space, roll up smaller items like underwear or swim trunks and use them to ¿ll the gaps between bulky items. Put toiletries and nightclothes on the top in case there’s an unexpected stopover. *To keep toiletries from leaking or exploding during travel, put cut-out squares of Glad plastic wrap between the caps and the contents. *Indispensable for Indonesia travel are the effective anti-mosquito repellents Soffel or Autan creams (Rp8000Rp11,000/per bottle) cream and quick-acting Norit Carbo Activatus charcoal tablets. *Place loose computer cables and smartphone charges in eyeglass cases to keep them safe and organized. *Indonesian warung sell small sachets of detergent for quick and convenient clothes washing (particularly convenient in isolated areas). *FWD Asuransihidup (www.fwd. co.id), easily purchased online, sells quite affordable life insurance coverage in Indonesia. *Freeze plastic water bottles to use in place of ice in coolers so you have cold water to drink as they melt. Waste nothing. * Dry season building tip. A super-economical odourless and effective anti-termite treatment is to pour one kg of fertilizer (pupuk urea; Rp100,000/50 kg bag) into a container of water, throw in a half kilo of salt, then mix. Paint this solution onto your wood, then let it dry in the sun. Even better is to soak the wood overnight in the solution. This treatment can also be used when making furniture. Balinese carpenters swear that this treatment keeps termites away for 25 years.

FREEDIVING NEWS Australian Depth National Championship

There was only one match scheduled for 2 August and that was the Men’s Division 1 clash between BSF Cricket Academy and Sanur with both teams needing to win to stay close to the top two teams.

The Australian Freediving Association has announced that its 2015 National Depth Championships will be held in association with Apnea Bali in Tulamben, Bali, Indonesia from 27 to 30 of August. Held under AIDA (Association Internationale pour le Développement de l’Apnée (AIDA) (English: International Association for Development of Apnea) a world wide rule- and record-keeping body for competitive breath holding events (freediving). It aims to set standards for safety, comparability of Official World Record attempts and freedive education).

BSF Cricket Academy won the toss and decided to bat first. They scored a competitive 6 for 154 off their allotted 20 overs with Acarya Sakayana leading the way with 53 not out. This proved to be just enough for victory with Sanur falling 10 runs short. They were not helped by 4 of their batters being run out. Was this caused by good fielding or bad running between the wickets, or both? In the Men’s Division 1 match on 9 August BSF Cricket Academy continued their push higher up the ladder by convincingly beating Bali Bandits by 55 runs through an all round team contribution. In the Men’s Division 2 match Lovina joined Denpasar at the top of their ladder by gaining the points against Gianyar who forfeited and in the Women’s competition Gianyar stayed undefeated for the season by comfortably accounting for Denpasar.

Let’s Make a Mess of It

one that exists away from Those Who Like to Bother You.

We do try very hard – really we do – to find little political or bureaucratic triumphs to lighten the load of otherwise observing serial dysfunction and give us something positive to write about that has emerged from government. But it’s hard. Since Australian beef imports were slashed – someone had heard the stirring beat of that nationalist drum again and had convinced himself that Indonesia Raya was selfsufficient in that variety of essential protein – local prices have shot up by 180 percent because (and we won’t even bother pausing for effect) supplies were now short. The government has said it will import 50,000 tons of Australian beef to meet the shortfall, or perhaps to fill in the gap in its mind.

It’s always a pleasure to hear Arabic spoken or sung at religious occasions and, in the old days before loudspeakers took over from the solitary muezzin who intoned from the minaret, the call to prayer was a mellifluous affair. It’s also rather nice to hear Qur’anic Arabic that’s not being spoken or sung by a native speaker of the language. In that respect, it shares qualities with the Latin one used to hear in Christian churches: unintelligible to most and quaintly pronounced. We said this, at the party at the Holiday Inn Baruna Bali at Tuban, to a fellow guest whose provenance is Jewish, and added that when such occasions bless the ear it is for us very much like listening to Hebrew. Shalom Aliechem.

We’ll move along to the next little upset apple cart. This is the invidious effect of steep rises in tariff charges on imported wine and spirits, which (to no one’s surprise except the sentient) have caused a conniption in the drinks industry – it’s worth rather more than a snip at US$300 million (Rp Something plus far too many zeroes) – especially coming on top of this year’s ban on beer sales through mini markets. From Jul. 23, importers have been paying 90 percent of import consignment value on wine and 150 percent on spirits. The industry says this will lead to retail price rises of between 15-100 percent. It fears, somewhat naturally, that this may have a negative impact on sales. It is true of course that observant Muslims are forbidden alcohol – it is haram – and that premium wines and spirits are only ever so rarely found in your average Indonesian household whose occupants, if they have jobs, earn derisory wages that are flat out putting nasi bungkus on the meja. Cheap hooch is widely available and – as we have just seen again in Bali in a separate criminally stupid or criminal profiteering case – is highly likely to have been adulterated with methanol or other dangerous substances. Most Indonesians are unlikely to be affected by prohibitionstyle, speakeasy-level prices for imported drinks they will never consume. But there is another aspect to the alcohol issue that should worry a great many people. It is that the drive to suppress consumption is coming from the hardline Islamist push in the legislature and the government. Consuming alcohol is not prohibited for many people who profess Indonesia’s other religious faiths. It is a commodity that the tourism sector must provide to meet the expectations of their markets. There are plenty of other places for tourists – or rich Indonesian elites – to go if they want a drink at a reasonable price with their holiday dinners, after all. This factor is critical to Bali, where tourism is the single most important economic driver. It’s quite clear that Islamic legislators in Jakarta – a world city in which alcohol fuels the metropolitan entertainment sector – have given little thought for the deeper ramifications of their campaign. Drinking is not compulsory. It is elective behaviour of the sort that sensible, secular states permit (properly regulated) on the basis that people should be free to choose to indulge in lawful, pleasurable activities and ought to be facilitated in these pursuits. Too often when fanatics get into the act all sorts of things are proscribed because it is suspected that somewhere, someone might be having a good time.

Island Faces

Swimming pool always green? Call the experts, Tropical Pool and Spa 289104 ( hunting ) or email : trevor@dps.centrin.net.id From as low as Rp 550,000 per month we will maintain your pool. C/BM/G-1April 15

There’s a lovely photographic exhibition at Lestari Art Space in J. Drupadi, Seminyak, called The Island’s Faces and featuring an eclectic range local dials. The photographs are the work of Ayu Swarie. They have been acclaimed by many as emblematic of our island and won deserved applause from the crowd at the opening on Aug. 7. The Diary could not be present on opening night because of a prior engagement (see below). But the exhibition runs through to midSeptember and we’re not going to miss it. The works are for sale.

Beach Style A good friend, filmmaker and photographer Adithio Noviello, and his bride Adita Dwi Putrianti chose a sunset beach setting for their wedding on Aug. 7. It was a lovely occasion, especially because it was a celebrated with Muslim rites in front of a gathering whose own religious beliefs encompassed Islam, Balinese Hindu, Buddhist, Judaism, Christianity of various sects, and a goodly component of those whose religious practice exists only as an entry on their ID cards. It seemed a delightful allegory of the real world, the

Noviello recently produced a short film on the under-threat Bali Dog – it was launched at a function at the Mercure Bali in Sanur the week before his wedding – and auctioned the centerpiece work from his brilliant exhibition of still photographs in aid of BAWA, the Bali Animal Welfare Association. One of his other photographs now resides at The Cage, courtesy of the charge-card facility at the show.

From Vulcan’s Lair Our favourite local blogger, Vyt Karazija, had a lovely take on Mt Raung’s lengthy effluence in nearby East Java that has lately caused distress to airports, airlines, and especially airline passengers who have no idea of the dangerous properties of volcanic dust except that it must be someone else’s fault. That episode had abated at the time of writing – though one should never wholly trust Vulcan not to return to bother us again shortly – but it gave all sorts of people an opportunity to fulminate. Karazija fulminates quietly, in his own erudite way. He noted on his Facebook one day that his newly cleaned motorbike had acquired a dull sheen of dust – debu in the local parlance – and he became quite lyrical about this. He wrote that it was wondrous that minute particles of Inner Earth had been expelled by pyrotechnic flux and had floated free for the first time in four billion years, seeing the Sun and all the other wonders available above the crust. It was pleasing, he noted, that some of these microscopic and newly free entities had chosen to grace his motorbike. This is sort of poetic prose that can bring a tear to eye of an old diarist, someone from the dark side who has seen the English language mangled by many for whom it is their native tongue and who unaccountably have been paid to write in that language. We did have a briefly lachrymose moment. But Karazija, while he is light with the virtual equivalent of a pen, is also a practical man. The rare dust that had blessed his bike, he finally decided, might actually be debu from the rampant construction and deconstruction, licensed or otherwise, that takes place round the clock in South Bali. Then again, we ourselves mused, it could merely have been particulate-laden smog, that other constant in the atmosphere above the murdered landscape of Denpasar, Badung and parts of Gianyar and Tababan. We daily see that dreadful pall – beneficially, this is from a distance – from The Cage in our still mainly wooded and freshly aired bit of the Bukit.

See You in Sanur The tenth Sanur Festival will be held from Aug. 26-30. Its theme is “Decade”, which is accurate at least, if not a natural crowd-puller of a slogan. Along with the usual mix of such events, including kite flying, a food festival, fun runs (on Aug.23), beach cleanups, turtle hatchling releases, a photographic competition and other entertainments, this year’s festival includes nightly showings of films from the 2015 Bali International Film Festival, which itself takes place from Sep. 24-30. For those more actively inclined there are Village cycling tours; and the Sanur Open golf tournament will be held at Bali Beach golf course on Aug. 29-30. Sanur Festival chairman Ida Bagus Gede Sidharta Putra makes a good point. “If we do not have a flagship tourism activity, Bali tourism will stagnate and slowly it could be abandoned by tourists.” Festival details are at www.sanurvillagefestival.com.

NC/Es/19 Aug 15

Question: I have been seeing my boyfriend for a little over two years, and often through that time, I have wanted to break things off with him. Every time I do break it off, he promises to make changes and then returns to his ways. He also has Aspergers, a trait that creates an atmosphere, in which I feel as if my passions and activities are not as important as his. He interrupts me and talks down to me, and when I call attention to it, he seems surprised. He assumes he knows everything there is to know about me and refuses to ask questions about my opinions, thoughts, or feelings. I have generally stayed with him because the sex is good, but lately even sex has become something I dread, and I have been drinking and getting drunk in order to cope. I flinch, I wake up crying, and when I figured out this was sex-related and told him, he was genuinely shocked. I’ve tried reaching out in so any ways to get the two of us onto the same page, but I feel as if I am the only one working at improving our communication. Am I being too demanding to want him to live up to his promises? Do I owe it to him to keep “working” on this? What do I do about the fact that I cry when I think about him being intimate with me? Please advise. Dr. ZZ: You are not being too demanding to want your boyfriend to live up to his promises; but it may be unrealistic to believe that those changes are possible for him after he’s proven repeatedly that they are not. You also do not owe him sex or owe it to him to keep “working” on things he says he is working on. Let him know your feelings have changed, you don’t want to be in a relationship with him anymore, you’re sorry, and you wish him well. I know, I know, it’s never that easy. But it can be that easy. You can’t change people. You can ask them to make certain “behavioral adjustments” to make your lives together more harmonious. But, it’s a self-defeating notion to hang out in a relationship, in which you want to stay only if the other person changes. You can’t make him change although you can certainly make each other miserable and waste a lot of your precious and beautiful lives trying to force something that isn’t going to work. Asperger’s is a red herring. He could have it and still be a great partner. The relationship has run its course. You’ve tried to hang in and see if it would get better; you’ve made every allowance. As sad as it is to think about losing someone who has been this important to you up until now, the relationship is not making you happy, and you can do better. There is no shame in finding love and losing it. End it, take a break, grieve, and find the next partner or pursuit that makes you happier. Let him be with someone who finds being ignored a peaceful break from having everything explained in excruciating detail.

Question: I’m 28 and find myself in the familiar position of losing my best friend. I’m hurt, but I know I created a lot of this because of my own need to “fix” other people. I have a long history of meeting and quickly becoming close friends with beautiful, intelligent, articulate women, who need help because they either have dysfunctional/ abusive relationships or end up having dysfunctional/ abusive relationships. At first, I keep my opinions to myself, but I eventually end up telling them how I feel, and they inevitably leave me because their dysfunctional relationships are more important to them. How do I find people who don’t have exceptionally dysfunctional/abusive relationships? Even more importantly, how do I stop picking people who need fixing? Are there signs that could help signal me to keep at arms length? Dr. ZZ: You can’t prevent people from making unhealthy decisions. Women who date abusive men do it for their own reasons; they get something out of it that you can’t see. It’s tough to think about leaving a friend hanging and refusing your support, but you get to draw boundaries about how much of another’s problems you are willing to take on. Knowing where to draw the line often comes with age and experience. You don’t need your friends to be perfect (no one is perfect), but when you’re making new friends, it’s smart to look for signs that show they know how to take care of themselves and put their best foot forward in their relationships. In terms of the pattern you have for choosing people who need to be fixed, you may want to ask yourself what you get out of being “the fixer.” Chances are it has to do with a feeling of control, competence, superiority, and the reward of being “the smart one,” of feeling “needed.” You may do well to examine the extent to which you bring a sense of entitlement to these friendships - an unspoken implication of exchanging listening and saving the day for the other person’s owing you better decisions or actually leaving the dysfunctional relationship for you. The next time you start hanging out with someone you like or even an established acquaintance, do your best not offer help of any kind. Instead, see what happens when you ask them to help you. It will be difficult at first if you’re accustomed to being the fixer; but, if you’re the only one bringing support to the table, it’s not much of a friendship.
