For this column, I turned to two of my favorite Internet and marketing sites (H ootsuite, Business2Community) to see their predictions for social media trends in this coming year. H o o t s u i t e is a social media management site that offers tools for aggregating and managing social media channels for business and non-profits. Hootsuite recently conducted a survey of over 3,000 clients to determine what trends will be influencing social media in the coming year. They found that top trends will be: R e b u ild in g c o n s u m e r t r u s t o n l i n e . People are q uestioning the security, transparency and accuracy of information from social media companies. Think Twitter’s fake accounts or acebook’s epidemic of fake news. In fact, according to Hootsuite’s study, of people no longer trust social media companies. Going forward, brands will need to focus on transparency and meaningful engagement with consumers, if they are to be trusted. Creating communities and carefully researching content will be the ways that smart brands can re-engage with their critics. S n a p C h a t S t o r i e s . These short-lived videos that disappear after a certain period of time will become the primary way that people share events and stories online in the future – more than W hats App, more than Instagram and more than acebook. Hootsuite’s blog said that disappearing ‘ S tories feel real, immediate and intensely personal.’ In other words, more like real life, and less like social media. In c r e a s e d s o c ia l m e d ia a n d o n lin e a d v e r tis in g b u d g e t s . Brands are seeking to find better, more impacting, ways to put their message or story in front of consumers, and will continue to pay more to do so.

B o o s tin g a n d w id e n in g th e u s e o f s o c ia l c o m m e r c e . S ocial commerce is when a product or service is bought as a direct result of social media ads or messages. In the past, businesses have found it difficult to gauge how social media impacted sales, as much buying still took place off-line or through websites. W ith new tracking and selling technology acebook’s arketplace or Instagram’s shoppable posts -- users can now buy directly through an app or social media site, and sellers can clearly see how much of their sales happen via social media. T h e r i s e a n d r i s e o f m e s s a g i n g a p p s . The way consumers spend their time online is changing – they are moving away from social media channels and spending more time using messaging apps, such as W hats App, W eChat or Facebook essenger. ccording to Hootsuite’s survey, of consumers would prefer to use messaging channels to communicate with business, instead of social media. Businesses that make greater use of online messaging will see a greater trust from consumers, according to H ootsuite. B u s i n e s s 2 C o m m u n i t y is a site that watches business, digital, technology, marketing and finance trends. They’ve put together a list of the top trends they see coming next year and include: G e n e r a t i o n Z c o n s u m e r s . Generation or Gen , as it’s often called – are those people now in their teens and early twenties. They are beginning to emerge as an influential force online and in terms of their consumer choices and habits. Gen ’s are digital natives they’ve grown up online and they social media for everything from communicating to shopping to making political decisions. They are financially and socially conservative, preferring to save money, work for themselves, become entrepreneurs and not take financial risks. They do not trust easily having been influenced by the Global Financial Crisis and the epidemic of fake news. A u g m e n t e d R e a l i t y ( A R ) will become increasingly popular. AR is the interactive experience in which things or places in the real world are augmented’ by computer-generated perceptual information to form a hybrid experience for users that combines both on and off-line worlds. Think ok mon’s popular GO !

Social n uencers. Brands will continue to expand their use of social influencers. These are people active on social media, often bloggers or Instagrammers, who have large followings and can inspire trust and loyalty in a brand’s products among their followers. Companies will often pay social influencers directly to post Tweets or Instagram photos that promote their products. Influencers are also invited to live events, paid to attend conferences and given products or services for free. s influencers are often called on for comment by conventional media, their influence can extend far beyond their own social media circles. L i v e S t r e a m i n g . Companies are increasingly using live video as a marketing tool. V ideos on social media have more engagement than any other type of content. W atch the trend of live streaming video streaming continue to grow. I would like to leave you with my thoughts about using social media and having an online presence in the digital age. Hopefully, you’ve read my past columns about how the Internet and digital devices are affecting all of us or how we can use them to improve aspects of our lives. The digital era – the Internet Age – is here to stay. H umankind is heading down a path that will likely lead to human/tech augmentation, bioengineering and AI algorithms that make more and more decisions affecting our lives. In short, we will be – we already are living in a science fiction world. e can be alarmed or informed – hopefully, you will be the latter. Like climate change, we ignore history unfolding before us at our own peril. I’d like to leave you with a book recommendation that may help give you a broad look at where humankind may be heading with all our digital devices, Big Data, AI, robots and hi-tech. The book is essons for the st entury, by Y uval Noah H arari. Y ou should also read his other book H omo Deus, which is a more in-depth and broader look at our possible human-tech future. Thanks for reading my column and stay informed.

I’ve noticed more and more famous actresses and singers who have gone grey. H elen M iran, Emmylou H arris, Diane Keaton and Jamie Curtis to name a few. M ost males have wisely gone grey naturally like George Clooney and R ichard Gere, still looking handsome and sexy. T hat is for men who have been lucky enough to keep their hair. Probably not many people have celebrated their sixtieth birthday without having a single grey hair. For those of us who started going grey when we were much younger, by the time we hit sixty our hair is pretty much grey or white. T here comes a time when we need to make a decision to stop colouring our hair and go “ au natural” or continue colouring. Just think of how much money we can save during a year. Colouring your hair with a professional stylist can be expensive, and although less expensive, home bleaching and colouring treatments can cause damage to our hair.

Gracefully Going Grey By S hari

my best friend who has been bleaching her hair platinum and keeping it cut in a pixie cut told me that she was j ealous of my natural silver hair, that she was paying a lot of money to get the same colour. S he suggested that I stop colouring my hair a light golden blonde and keep it natural. H owever, I wasn’t ready to give up colouring my hair, thinking that it would make me look older. But a year ago while watching a T V program I loved one of the character’s platinum hair with a bright blue streak on the side. T his inspired me to make the transition, which could be done in one step of lightening all my hair and letting it grow out naturally. M y hair dresser also gave me a very good cut that is flattering in a controlled messy look. I do love the blue streaks which I think make me look funky and young looking. I often get compliments on my blue hair.

For advice on this tricky subj ect I went to M ax at S poiled H airdressers, primarily because M ax is one of the most distinguished and experienced ex-pat hair dressers on Bali, with years’ experience tending to tropical hair of all styles, colours and conditions. H e explained that the transition from dark hair to grey is the most difficult, taking about six months, and you need to be committed to this decision. Using a combination of gradual highlights and low lights to blend in the hair, and slowly move lighter takes time. It’s vital to have a great cut with a shape and style and going shorter to make the change more natural and stay beautiful.

Unfortunately my hair began going grey when I was twenty five, a trait that runs in my family. But luckily being blonde made it easier to hide the grey. A few years ago

S ome people are lucky and have a sexy looking silver streak in their hair, rather than the usual grey temples. But when your hair is 50% grey it’s time to consider going grey gracefully or continue colouring. Unfortunately with the hair growth in these areas, your hair will need to be retouched every three to four weeks to avoid having unflattering grey or white roots. T his means colouring your hair approximately twelve to eighteen times during a year. T his can cut into your pension drastically, especially here in the tropics where hair (and nails) grow faster than cold climates. M ax mentioned to me that men look great going natural when the grey starts and are less in need of the colour appointments, but he does have a number of dapper male clients who come in and have subtle cover up with their regular cuts.

C/He/G-7 Nov. 18

S poiled H airdressers in Umalas have a special package for ex-pats to help you with your grey growth maintenance if you choose to stay colouring your hair, offering a package for six sessions of roots colour, wash and blow dry for 2.4 million. T his will save you a considerable amount of money and keep your hair looking great. H e can also assist with long term planning for a grey transition that will take away the stress of managing it alone.

Because grey hair tends to thin out and become coarser as you age, it’s important to treat your hair with kindness and keep it moisturiz ed. Using a good salon conditioner is a must, being careful to not apply too much and (very) gently combing the conditioner through the hair for an even distribution before thoroughly rinsing. M ax suggests adding a little cider vinegar to some mineral or bottled water for a final rinse to remove the hard water scale from you hair, leaving it soft and shiny. Using a diluted purple shampoo is also important to keep your grey hair from going brassy. S poiled offer three brands – Alfaparf M ilano with ever Brass and Grey ride. They also have the S chwarz kopf S ilver shampoo. Don’t worry - you won’t look like your grandmother who had purple hair, but will have soft and manageable hair with a beautiful shine. If you’re thinking of going grey gracefully then see M ax for a consultation. H e’s already helped many expats with the transition to age gracefully, and even enj oy it! Spoiled Hairdressers.

Freezing Fat By S hari

T hey also provide the usual services of facial treatments, Botox and fillers, platelet rich plasma, threads lift and wellness packages of V it C inj ection, V it B inj ection, Kenacort inj ection, Glutathion inj ection and M esotherapy fat burner and laser hair removal. Preparing for the upcoming holiday season, desiring to look my best and slim what should I do? R ather than go for liposuction, which is invasive and expensive, I opted for the fat freez ing treatment. T his is a non-invasive body contouring treatment used to reduce fat cells through freez ing. It involves a controlled application of cooling within the temperature range of +5 to -11degrees Celsius.

asked what part of my thighs I wanted treated and pointed to the outer thighs. S he then took two more anti-freez e cloths and smoothed them over my thighs. Now it was time to kick-start the big machine. S he adj usted the settings and took one of the large rectangular cups attached to the hose and placed it over my abdomen. Pressing it into place she pushed a button on the machine and immediately I felt the tissue sucked into the cup q uite strongly. S he adj usted the tissue at the sides and pushed it into the cup. It wasn’t really painful but the pressure was strong. T hen she repeated this process on each of my thighs. T he discomfort was tolerable. W ithin a couple of minutes I could feel heat in the cups and wondered about this. I was expecting it to be cold right away. S he told me that the treatment would last for 50 minutes. I wondered if I could handle the discomfort for 50 minutes.

H owever, it’s not instant like liposuction but it gradually breaks down the fat cells which are eliminated naturally from the body. And it’s permanent. T he process continues working for three months but visible results are usually evident after 45 days. T his is perfect for areas that you have stubborn fat that’s been nearly impossible to shift. Doing a hundred situps a day and still have that bulge of belly fat? T his is the solution. T wo areas can be treated at the same time in only an hour. I was escorted upstairs into an all-white room with a treatment bed and a large strange looking machine with four hoses sticking out of it. After donning a smock the therapist measured the areas of my body that were going to be treated. T his would be compared with the same measurements a few weeks later to see the results. T hen she asked me to lie down. I was going to have my abdomen and thighs treated. After pulling up the smock to uncover my belly she opened a sealed package and unfolded a large wet cloth and began laying it over my belly. I asked what it was and she told me that it was anti-freeze . R aising my eyebrows in surprise, thinking that you used anti-freez e in cars in cold countries. S he smiled and explained that it would prevent the skin from freezi ng and damaging it. T hat sounded like a good thing. After this she

Gradually the warmth turned cold. Looking at the clock I realize d I had 45 minutes to wait. Distraction. T hat’s what I needed. I asked for my phone and opened the S crabble program. Good old S crabble could keep me distracted. As I played I noticed the discomfort in my body less and less. I could feel a deep cold in the tissues now. I could handle this. After all, I wasn’t really in pain. I had endured far more uncomfortable treatments that were q uite painful. O n a scale of 1 to 10, this was maybe a 2. t the end of fifty minutes she checked my skin and turned off the machine. Carefully removing the cups one by one, the tissue below felt strange, cold and sort of numb. T hen she removed the anti-freeze cloths and wiped off the skin. T hen she began massaging each area. T his actually felt more painful than anything else up to this point. “ rink liters of water to flush out the toxins and fat.” she instructed me. “ nly today? r every day?” I asked to be sure. “ very day is better.” She advised. “ an I have massage?” “ h yes. assage is good.” I was now allowed to get up and dress. M y inner tissues felt cold and a little numb with an achiness. But everything was fine. The skin was a little red but it faded very quickly. After I walked home I began drinking glasses and glasses of water until I felt q uite full. It’s recommended to have two or three treatments to achieve your best silhouette with permanent fat loss. T he second and third treatments should be performed 45 days apart. Although the fat loss will continue for up to four months, visible results will be shown after 45 days.

I returned for a second treatment 45 days later. T he same therapist accompanied me upstairs to another treatment room. After undressing she began taking my measurements on the same locations as the previous time. I was very pleased to see that I had lost 12 centimeters on my abdomen and thighs. I guess that’s why my shorts were feeling looser. T he only place that there was no change was on the upper abdomen. I now knew that this treatment really does work. T his session she attached a fourth suction cup over my upper abdomen. S he hadn’t placed one there the previous visit. Now I had two cups on my abdomen and one each on an outer thigh. I also liked the fact that this room had a large mirror facing the bed so I could see what was happening. It looked strange to watch the tissue being sucked up into the cups and held there. T his session was more comfortable than the previous one.

S ay What? Q u e s t i o n : I’m a single dad who married his high school sweetheart. As a conseq uence, I have dated very little. S o now I’m divorced, and I am thrust adrift into the dating scene – in Bali of all places. T he dating part comes easy; being a gentleman and forming relationships has gone well for me. I get that part. M y q uestion is about when it’s okay to introduce someone new to my son. I have been extremely cautious about keeping him out of any of my relationships thus far. But, now I have met a woman, who I think has some serious potential to be around for a while. I don’t want to put either her or my son in a problematic situation. S he knows I have a son and often asks about him and how things are. W e have been seeing each other for about a month and have been much more involved than I have been with previous relationships. S he comes from a background of school counseling, so she’s probably better at this than I am. But I haven’t wanted to saddle her with the responsibility of answering this q uestion. T hanks!

D r. Z Z :

I know that this is not about the number of days on the calendar for you, and more about the fact that you feel as if the woman you are dating will stick around for a while and be a positive influence in your son’s life. It also largely depends on your son as much as it does on the woman and/or on your relationship with her. R egardless of any background she may have in counseling, she is not going to know better than you, the parent, because this is a decision that needs to come from your heart. T hat said, it is probably not a terrible idea to say to her, “ I’m thinking of introducing you to my son, W hat do you feel about that? ” and get her opinion as your girlfriend about whether she thinks it’s time.

By D r. Z ae

T he fact that you are being so thoughtful about this is wonderful I’m fairly confident you’ll make a reasonable decision. O bviously, you don’t want to act from a place of heartfelt ineptitude, but unconditional love (i.e., love without expectations) is generally a failsafe guide.

Q u e s tio n :

For a few years, I have had a long-distance, not 100% platonic relationship with a man I met online. I was married when we first met, and he’s made it clear from the start that he wants only to be friends. I’m fine with that though I still have feelings. H e supported me through my divorce, and I supported him through various personal crises. W e have emailed each other back and forth, watched movies together and sent each other photos etc.. Everything has been great. T hen, about 4 months ago, he moved back to an area where he has a wider circle of friends, and suddenly he was not there for me so much. I got clingy and depressed as I perceived him to be drifting away. It was difficult to break the habit of messaging him daily or every-other-day. O nce I realize d what I was doing, I managed to stop pestering him and asked a few times how much space he needed. All he would ever say was a variation on “I’m fine, nothing has changed. Y ou’re being overdramatic.” M eanwhile our actual conversations grew shorter, colder and increasingly rare. H e still contacts me occasionally, but I want to know how to repair and disentangle our friendship without risking a breach of his invisible boundaries. I’m afraid I’ve lost too much goodwill to even try testing the limits.

D r. Z Z :

Y ou don’t have to be a mind-reader. Just take your friend at his word (“I’m fine, nothing has changed. Y ou’re being overdramatic.” ) Y ou didn’t cause the distance between you; you didn’t do anything wrong; you don’t have

to check in and atone, worry or apologize . In fact, he specifically does not want to talk about the nature of your relationship or your anxiety about it. T he more he has to reassure you that he’s not annoyed, the more apt he is to become secretly annoyed, and the more loudly he will protest that he’s annoyed. Y ou are not wrong to pick up on the diminished contact between the two of you because, as you pointed out, something has changed; he moved back to a town where he has a larger circle of friends and a more active social life. Long distance friendships are genuine; but, when people are deciding how to allocate limited time and attention in day-to-day life, proximity generally wins. It is not surprising that part of his moving and reinventing of self is making a conscious decision to move beyond your formerly shared, romantic, not-exactly-sexual past to actively putting his energy into a life closer to home. H ow to “ repair and disentangle” the situation? T ake him at his word that nothing is wrong. S omething, however, has changed about his priorities and about how much time, attention and effort he is putting into your friendship. H is actions speak loudly here, and your instincts are sound. Continue your self-monitoring strategy of pulling back on communication and letting him initiate contact. Put a moratorium on any conversations about the state of your friendship and send no emotional emails. Your romantic feelings are definitely at play here, and you’re understandably missing your daily j olts of attention and affection. W hether this is a breakup or not, to you it feels like one. S o, treat it as such, mourn the loss of your closeness privately, and then take all the energy you are putting into this not-so-active friendship and put it into being awesome someplace else.

Letters To Bali Advertiser The Cup Runneth Over!!! It is that time of year where we see rubbish again on S anur Beach. BUT we can’t ignore it , and it is something we can do something about. T he one thing that we see every time, is the PLAS T IC CUPS of W AT ER that are given to guests etc. All these plastic cups end up on our beach, along with noodle cups, lots of single use plastic bags and water bottles, and everything else you can think of. And it has to S T O P.

ALL UNDER Rp. 100K

S T O P using these cups. BUY a 5 gallon bottle of water, and paper cups and let people be part of the solution NO T part of the problem. W e don’t want to drink from these plastic cups, because not only does the water have a funny taste, but depending on how long it sits in those cups it becomes toxic. T he plastic straws are all over the beach and end up back in the environment.

If you had a self serve station then we would be able to fill up our own reusable water bottles. S aves you cleaning up the plastic left as rubbish, and it would save you money. Y our customers would appreciate your efforts.S topping the use of plastic bags is going to help, BUT the real problem is the single use plastics. T hose little coffee sachets, shampoo, detergent etc that get used all the time, as always on the beach or floating in the water.

NC/G/P-7 Nov. 18

NEED

Do not sell plastic bags to people who “ forget” or simply “ do not care enough’” to bring a reusable shopping bag. It only encourages them to not care. M ake them take it all out in their arms, you can be sure that next time they will bring a bag.

Update La Mien is one of the many budget-priced eateries on Jln.

Aperitif @ The Viceroy is a nostalgic visit for any of us who were lucky enough to have experienced 20th century fine dining at any of the great restaurants of Europe. It is all here at its decadent best, chandeliers and all. The only thing missing is the cigars with the cognac after the meal [but the cigars can still be enjoyed out on the terrace]. The evening begins at the cocktail bar for pre dinner drinks whilst plucking snacks from the canapé tree before proceeding to the impressive dining room for the 8 course degustation dinner special by their talented Belgian Chef Nic Vanderbeeken. Highlight of the meal for me was the Venison Wellington with foie gras, kale and a mushroom rendang sauce. Cut at the table by the chef [pictured] and placed inside the ring of black truffle mash potato, honshimeji mushrooms and nasturtium leaves brings back memories of many Christmases in Europe during the game [gibier] season. Aperitif, the ultimate in fine dining! Biku on Jln. Petitenget, holds its popular annual Prince and Princess Day, Friday January 11, 2019. Hosted and organized by Fairy Poppilina it features non-stop entertainment for the children who are all served Biku’s famous Kids High Tea [Rp. 75,000++ each] consisting of finger sandwiches, scones and cup cakes served with fruit juices. This special session is from 4.00 - 5.30 p.m.

Goutama, in Ubud [a pedestrian only walkway]. La Mien is one of the best. It is operated by the Ryoshi Group, enough said! Ramen noodles are the main attraction. They are available in a selection of build-yourself options [a small bowl of noodles, add your broth of choice and then your topping]. Normal size traditional portions are also available from the a la carte menu [topped with slices of pork confit] as well as many other standard dishes from the popular Ramen Boy outlet on Sunset Road [another great cheap eatery]. These include starters Sesame Chicken & Cold Noodle Salad, Siu Mai, Zangi and Katsu Curry. There is also a special Curry Udon [chicken or beef], those popular Gyoza [pork or vegetarian], Hiyashi Chuka, and Chicken or Beef Terriyaki. New product on the menu here is their VEGAN ‘Hot Dog’. The vast majority of tofu produced and sold in Asia is GMO [genetically modified], but not so from Ryoshi. They only use the more expensive organically grown soy beans [from Lombok] and then prepare their tofu using the age-old Japanese method of doing same. Experimenting with different overnight marinations they discovered one that leaves the tofu stick tasting like a Frankfurt, hence the VEGAN DOG. Vegan [plant based] is becoming the cuisine of choice for many health conscious diners.

Jollie Kitchen is a new Middle Eastern restaurant on Jln. Kartika Plaza in front of and a part of the Paradiso Hotel. Bathinjan bil Humus [mixed vegetables with curry sauce, topped with feta], many Kofta [minced meat]; bil Sanayah with potato curry, Labanieh with bread and garlic sauce, or Mixed Kebabs [both kofta and sheesh kebabs]. Mains include Shawarma [lamb or beef], Djaj Mahwi [BBQ chickcn leg with fatoush salad and potato or a fusion mishmash of Spaghetti and chilli tuna, Rista bil Sammakh. Sangsaka is new on Jln. Pangkung Sari, Kerobokan, with chef Kieran Morland presiding over the woks, and already becoming very popular. Start with Udang Woku [charcoal prawns with vermicelli and komangi] or Gurita

Kalio [wood roasted octopus] then Ikan Kalap [Red Emperor, Clams, lemongrass, calamansi] Pipi Sapi Andaliman [glazed beef cheek, tomato, chilli] or Celeng Siobak [suckling pig, rose apple, star anis]. Or you can enjoy 9 dishes in 5 separate servings for Rp. 550,000 ++ p.p..

Mozaic restaurant and Owner/chef Chris Salans pays tribute to iconic French chef Paul Bocuse, who recently passed away, with a commemoration dinner, Friday January, 4, 2019 at his MOZAIC Ubud restaurant. Paul Bocuse cook books are found in many great restaurant kitchens around the world. Many of his recipes are featured in this 6 course dinner: Oeuf De Poule Au Caviar & Bisque De Homard, [Egg, Caviar with Blini and Lobster Bisque], Homard en Salade a la Francaise [Lobster Salad “a la Francaise”], Rouget en Ecailles de Pomme De Terre Croustillante [Red Mullet Dressed in Crusty Potato Scales], “Triu Normand” Granite Au Vin Rouge [Red Wine Sorbet], Canard A La ’Orange [Duck in Fresh Orange Sauce], Filet of Beef Rossini, Sauce Périgueux [Wagyu Beef and Foie Gras in Black Truffle Sauce], Moelleux Au Chocolat, Creme Glace Vanille [Chocolate Moelloeux, Fresh Vanilla Ice Cream]. The cost is Rp. 1,250,000++ p.p. [wine pairings also available]. Prior booking essential. Ubud Taliwang is just an open wantilan [with parking]

opposite the Pertamina station on Jln. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud. Taliwang is the national dish of Lombok; baby chickens or as they are called there Kampung [village] Chickens, are grilled or baked, sometimes with prior marination and sometimes just with accompanying sauce which is usually a nice fiery Sambal Ulek which is made from fresh hot red chilli (chopped, but seeds left in them), ground to a paste. Other ingredients can include garlic, salt, shallots and/or tamarind. Many pakets and combinations are available, all very budget priced. For more information see our website: www.balieats.com

Restaurant Review Odette is a surprise! A clean modern stylish fit out that you would more expect to find in Seminyak rather than in the up-country wood carving village of Mas. Not only that, there is also a relaxing garden courtyard down below where you can also dine.

Whilst Odette is a popular place to visit just for a coffee and cake or pastry from their in-house bakery it is also offers many snacks and full meals for anytime dining. For snacking there is their Quick Bites menu headed by very tasty Mini Burgers, chicken and cheese in brioche buns [one is never enough].. Chicken Fingers with basil sauce are another option as are the more common onion rings or Vietnamese spring rolls. Breakfast/Brunch is a popular time here with many egg dishes, some standard, some less common. I like the Middle Eastern Shakshuka; eggs poached in a hearty tomato ragout with either your choice of beans [pictured] or minced beef, which comes with two large slabs of toast, very good for dunking. Their Eggs Benedict are poached eggs with mushroom and water spinach, add bacon or smoked salmonThe English is very complete; eggs, bacon, sausage, baked beans, smoked tomato, grilled pumpkin and toast. There is a Breakfast Bruschetta; scrambled egg whites and bacon with a basil, parsley and cashew sauce. The New York style Reformer consists of scrambled egg whites, feta, red spinach, walnuts, tomato and mashed avocado with sourdough toast.

Surprising! By Gerry Williams An alternate Benedict is with blue cheese and mushrooms. The super healthy option is their Pink Dragon Smoothie, red dragon fruit, grapes, strawberries, banana and granola with coconut flakes and dried fruits;

Nom de plume

Environmental education was always a vital part of the school’s program but the Green Rangers program differs from the ongoing program in the sense that; it is a training program for a specific group of children to become environmental activists and it also accepts students from other schools to join into the program.

For twenty years now the school has worked on a mission to develop environmental consciousness among the students. Children are taught to love and respect our planet. The school believes it is necessary environmental education is taught by example and not in theory alone. At Window to the World they do not advocate a particular viewpoint or course of action. The environmental education rather teaches individuals how to weigh various sides of an issue through critical thinking and to enhance students’ own problem-solving and decision-making skills. The relationship between humans and the environment has always been an important part of Balinese culture but unfortunately the pressure on the environment is growing

Green Rangers

Occasional Articles From Our Readers

The Window to the World school in Lovina, north Bali has launched a new, extensive environment program called Green Rangers. The Window to the World school is a nonprofit school combining education renewal and teacher training with supporting education for the under privileged. The school opened its doors twenty years ago.

rapidly. It is therefore the Window to the World school has started an environmental program called ‘Green Rangers’ which is reaching out beyond the school doors. The response from other schools to join into the program is overwhelming. It shows the growing concern about the garbage situation. The students commit to become, so called “Green Rangers”. They are divided in Junior Rangers and Senior Rangers depending on their age. They start with a six month training program to become green activists. The objective of this project is to: 1. Create awareness among students, teachers and parents 2. Train Green Rangers in setting up and maintaining sustainable garbage management systems using the Window to the World garbage and composting system as an example. 3. Understand the Reduce- Reuse-Recycle principle and making it the daily routine. 4. Develop understanding that managing garbage is firstly a personal commitment and secondly, a commitment for life. Once the first group of Green Rangers has been trained, they will be encouraged to share the skills they developed with their own schools and families. The Rangers will invite them to the Window to the World school to learn about garbage separation and composting and join into workshops. The program is packed with activities, hands on learning, field trips and discussion time. The team leading the Green Rangers took ample time to prepare the program and

travelled the area visiting garbage collecting points, like; separation stations, the landfill in Bengkala and garbage banks. The Green Ranger leading team found many people working in various initiatives, private as well as governmental, committed to working for a cleaner environment which happily joined the green forces. The project coordinator for the training of the first group of Rangers is Damian Krings who receives help from Rotary Club Euskichen, Germany. Other partners are; True Scuba, NMS Bali, RefillMyBottle, The Adirama Hotel Lovina, Cok Fendi, POKMASWAS, Bank sampah Kaliber and Bank sampah Kasih Lestari.

Fascinating Rhythms, Paddyside By Renee Melchert Thorpe Cheers! Mojitos and Bintang and soda water are in our glasses, each catching a gleam of sunset. I’m in a small crowd of NGO workers, musicians and entrepreneurs. Tattered scarecrows, more sculpture than agricultural aid, hold vigil over the vast green padi behind us. This is the accommodation and performance space Omah Apik, and another magical night of music and performance is about to begin. Once a year, architect and activist Etha Widiyanto hosts a 2-day festival of inspiration and creativity. It’s her Festival Tepi Sawah, 3 years new, assisted by sound engineer and music impresario Anom Darsana, and jazz great Nita Aartsen. It’s a happening of art, dance, indigenous music, and jazz; with cultural workshops, craftsmen, and more. Fine for families, the festival buildings buzz with hands-on activities, refreshments (one year a food truck was dishing Balinese tacos), virtuoso performances, and breathtaking jam sessions. Half the fun is exploring Etha’s beautiful structures (like her massive old teak joglo with a floor of salvaged wood), and its exquisite surrounds. You can even book a room at Omah Apik and stay right within the grounds. On facebook, Omah Apik Pejeng Bali has the link to reserve. Next festival is slated for July 6 - 7, one so good that I want to tip you off now. It’s a stone’s throw from Ubud (and truly rural), in the storied village of Pejeng. Already confirmed are Kids of Kupang / Jakarta Big Band, wunderkind puppetmaster Cilik Narend, Papua dancers, and crowdpleasing Jogjakarta songstress Endah Laras. Workshops: Made Taro and Clean Bali Series, master dancer and musician I Made Bandem, Sumatran filmmaker Erik Est, and photographer Vifick Bolang. Year-round, Etha stages music events called Fascinating Rhythm on at least one Monday evening per month, with January 7th up next, 7-10pm. Past FR events have

featured Mbira music from Zimbabwe and a world class jazz bassist from Italy. These evenings include a little tutorial or informative intro to the instrument, but mainly it’s a whole lot of great music in a fun space.

Art Bali? Apa itu? In October while diplomats were convening in Nusa Dua, government body BE KRAF baptised a pavilion-like exhibition space with Beyond the Myths, a Bali-centric show of celebrated local greats like Ashley Bickerton, Yoka Sara, Agung Mangu Putra, and I Nyoman Erewan. Curator Rifky Effendy used the big white cube’s surrounds for eye-catching installations to punctuate the statement that Bali is on the world art map.

P lans afoot to charg e tou rists for w aste manag ement solid waste management (SWM) services are determined to a large extent by the amount of funding available for the collection, transport, disposal, and recycling of wastes and effective SWM requires adequate funds to cover a range of activities involving designing and building recycling centres, landfills, and other facilities such as buying collection vehicles, compactors, and other equipment. Operating SWM services are substantial, and have been estimated to account for 20%-50% of municipal expenditures. A number of Pacific Island countries, including the Marshall Islands, the Cook Islands and Palau already charge visitors fees to assist in covering these costs.

Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, is working on plans to charge visitors coming to tourism destinations across Indonesia, including Bali, a waste management tax according to local newswires. Waste management, especially plastic waste management, is a growing global problem and one that Indonesia is keen to address. Gapura Bali recently reported Bali’s political will was turning green and the island was set to ban plastic bags in 2019; one of a number of green initiatives aimed at creating a cleaner and healthier environment for visitors and residents alike. But there is a cost for doing the right thing. The idea of charging visitors to manage the trash they leave is not new. According to the Asian Development Bank (ADB)

These new rules are being targeted to be enforced by February 2019. Bali’s new Governor, I Wayan Koster is also planning to charge an additional levy on visitors coming to Bali to preserve Balinese customs and culture. When combined these new taxes could mean an additional USD 20 on transportation and/or lodging prices for foreign visitors. [Gapura Bali December 5, 2018]

A family home in Batubulan, Gianyar, collapsed into the river below at 6:30am on Saturday morning, killing a mother and three children and seriously injuring the father. The foundations of the house, which was perched above the ten-meter-deep Tiyis River, had become unstable due to heavy rainfall. Following the incident, a joint team of regional police, search and rescue teams, Gianyar Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) and Gianyar Military District Command arrived at the scene of the landslide on Jl. Pratu. The evacuation effort was underway by 8am, deploying around 350 personnel equipped with heavy equipment, hammers and chainsaws, reported Nusa Bali.

One of the witnesses to the whole event was the children’s grandmother, Ni Nyoman Martani, 53, who had been outside making her daily religious offerings at the time of the disaster. She said she knew something was awry when she

Koster explained that the advancement of Bali’s culture forms the first dimension of his vision and mission for the development plan for Bali 2018-2023. Adding: “The richness of Bali is its unending culture. For that reason, it must continually be exposed and protected.” Koster outlined some of the work programs included in his vision of “Nangung Set Kerthi Loka Bali” (“Safeguard the Sanctity and Harmony of Bali’s Nature and Culture). “One of the programs I have introduced is the use of the Balinese language and Balinese traditional costumes on Thursday of each week at all government agencies and offices in Bali,” Koster explained. In the future, Koster hopes that Bali’s development will be based on its culture and “local wisdom.” Adding: “I want the culture of Bali to become the Island’s main commodity in

RACQ LifeFlight’s executive manager of Air Ambulance Jets, Tim Healee, said the flight back to Australia would be undertaken at a low level due to the man’s condition. “In this case, we’re flying the aircraft at a lower altitude, which means that we can keep the cabin at a sea-level pressure, which helps reduce the pressure changes on the patient,” he said. “We carry a doctor and a nurse and they’re very experienced both in emergency and high acuity medicine, so basically it’s like a flying intensive care unit.” [Sydney Morning Herald November 30, 2018] Denpasar calf- slasher seized by police Thirty-three year old Balinese man I Gusti Made Susila has been arrested for Monday’s mindless knife attack on Denpasar schoolgirl Anak Agung Pratama Dewi. The assault, which took place in an alleyway off Jl. Gunung Penulisan in Denpasar, occurred around lunchtime on Monday as the teen was walking home from school. “The perpetrator followed the victim, his head and face covered with a helmet and a mask. When nobody was around, he pulled out the knife and cut the victim’s legs until she was injured,” recapped an official in a report by Kumpuran.

felt the garage door vibrate, “I thought it was an earthquake,” she explained. “I immediately shouted into the house to try and wake up the children and grandchildren, but before I had finished speaking the house had plunged into the river,” she told Nusa Bali. The night before the accident, Martani claims to have had a strange feeling, saying that one of the children had been unusually agitated and unwilling to sleep. Incidentally, local residents living around the Tiyus River have long suspected the waterway to be haunted. According to a different article in Nusa Bali, the riverbank has been the scene of many strange sightings, including several of Kuntilanak, the long-haired ghost who is believed to have died in childbirth according to Javanese folklore. The sole survivor, I Made Oktara Dwipaguna, is currently receiving treatment at Sanglah Hospital. The hospital’s PR officer, Dewa Ketut Kresna, said that staff had received the patient at 10:20am on Saturday morning, commenting to Nusa Bali, “His condition is currently stable. He has undergone surgery for abdominal wounds and there is a fracture in his arm. There are also injuries to his face, arms, and legs.” [Coconuts Bali December 11, 2018]

A Culture Census for Bali in 2019 Bali’s Governor Wayan Koster has announced plans to create Provincial regulations preserving Balinese culture. By elevating cultural conservation to the level of a provincial law, Governor Koster says a pillar of the Island’s economic development can be promoted and protected. As reported by NusaBali, the Governor told the Bali Cultural Congress meeting in Denpasar on Tuesday, December 4, 2018: “Bali is not like other regions that have natural wealth that will disappear over time if continually exploited. Bali, on the other hand, has a culture that the more it is used and shared, the more it will continue to blossom and develop. Therefore, I want to protect Bali’s culture under the law.”

A Queenslander suffering from serious head injuries after falling off a motor scooter in Indonesia will be flown home by an RACQ LifeFlight jet. Emergency medical retrieval experts had landed in Bali to help the injured man after the Air Ambulance Challenger 604 jet was called to Indonesia on Thursday night. The man remains in a serious condition after he fell from a motor scooter in the early hours of Sunday morning. He and his parents were set to be taken to Queensland and were expected to land in Brisbane on Friday night.

Viva report that Minister Luhut believes the cost of levies for handling waste will be pegged at around USD 10 for foreign tourists and around USD 1 for domestic tourists. Koster’s Cultural Tax may double this, but both have yet to be confirmed and ratified by their respective government bodies. According to Bertigar the legal umbrella for the levy is being prepared and reviewed and will appear later as a Presidential Regulation (Perpres).

Sadly, the outcome of the search uncovered the bodies of four people, named in the same report as Ni Made Lintang Ayu Widmerti, 31, and her three children, Ni Putu Deta Vania Larasati, 6, I Made Adin Radita Paguna, 3, and I Nyoman Ali Anggara Paguna, 2. Six-year-old Ni Putu Deta Vania Larasati, a student of Denpasar Elementary School, was the first victim to be found dead. In the hours to follow, her three-year-old brother was discovered in a sleeping position, curled up around a bolster. “At first we found a pillow. When we pulled the victim’s body appeared,” said Ketut Gede Ardana, Head of the Denpasar Search and Rescue Office, to the source. The youngest casualty, a toddler, was found about a meter away from his mother’s body. The father, I Made Oktara Dwipaguna, 30, was the only family member to be recovered alive, despite being buried under a pile of rubble, as confirmed by Gianyar BPBD chief Anak Agung Oka Digjaya in a report by Kompas.

Susila quickly fled the scene after the attack. Police have since discovered his jacket and mask, dumped at the Batanta Dam after the crime was committed. Shocked and wounded, the sixth-grade student was helped back to her home in Jl. Imam Bonjol by local residents. ”The victim told me that before being slashed, a man riding a Yamaha Jupiter motorbike with small frame and dark skin had twice teased her,” said an unnamed source to Kumpuran. The incident was reported by Dewi’s parents on Monday. Having secured the knife, helmet and motorbike as evidence, police arrested Susila at 3:30pm yesterday at his place of work on Jl. Majapahit, Kuta, reported Bali Post. [Coconuts Bali December 5, 2018] In the dark from time to time until January 2019 Bali’s power grid was reduced by 125 megawatts (MW) on Tuesday, December 4, 2018, due to maintenance being carried out at the Steam-Powered (PLTU) Electrical Generating Plant in Celukan Bawang. NusaBali reports quoted the general manager of PT Indonesia Power in Bali, I Gusti Agung Ngurah Sabawa Putra, who confirmed maintenance was under way on Network Units I, II and III that will cause power limitations from time to time until early January 2019.

Separately, Koster is recommending that a culture census be carried out in 2019 to create an inventory of all aspects of Balinese life connected with Balinese culture. The Governor wants a comprehensive inventory of dance forms, gamelan, statues, significant architecture, textile weaving, performing arts and alike. With a comprehensive inventory of cultural assets in hand, Koster said a corresponding map can be created that will enhance the welfare of the Balinese people. The proposed census can involve active contributions by places of higher education and university students doing work experience. By encouraging the use of Balinese costumes every Thursday and also for those employed on the organizing committees of national conferences held in Bali, Governor Koster is certain the local textile and fashion industries can be stimulated and the related products can be sold at higher rates. Koster is also seeking that office sign boards and road side banners can also incorporate the use of Balinese script. This will encourage the use of the Balinese language and create future employment for young Balinese who have mastered Balinese. [www.balidiscovery.com December 9, 2018]

With the maintenance underway at PLTU Celukan Bawang, the electrical supply for all of Bali will be reduced by 125 MW or 10% from a total normal supply of 1,228.7 MW. The remaining supply of 1,103 MW is perilously close to the nighttime peak consumption level of 900 MW. The State Power Board (PLN) in order to prevent blackouts is asking the public to conserve the use of electrical power through early January 2019, especially between the hours of 6:00 pm until 10:00 pm. PLN is also pledging to do all possible to accelerate the completion of routine maintenance at PLTU Celukan Bawang. [www.balidiscovery.com December 9, 2018]

Like so many tamu now retired in Bali, I backpacked around S outheast Asia in the 1970s and 80s. T his experience provided a very broad education in accepted hygiene practices in the developing world. I’ll never forget my disbelief, when asking for the toilet in a tiny hamlet in M alaysia, on being invited with a vague gesture to avail myself of the hinterland behind the guest house. It was my first intimation that not everyone had a nice porcelain throne. I was very naï ve. O f course I was already aware that not all toilets were designed for sitting, but had never really considered the complete absence of sanitary facilities. In fact open defecation, as it is now officially called, is still the only option for about million people ( figure) or 12 percent of the global population. In Indonesia this number is about 30 million, considerably more than the population of Australia. A lot of this activity takes place on beaches, as I’m reliably informed by intrepid friends who visit the less-visited shorelines of the archipelago. S ome are not so very distant.

In some places human waste is recycled. V isiting Goa in 1990 I learned that pigs were an important part of the food chain. Back yards were fenced and each held an elevated structure that was in fact an outhouse reached by a short ladder. T he family pig, which lived in the yard, would closely observe visits to this structure so it could position itself strategically beneath and consume the payload as it was delivered. And yes, pork was widely eaten in Goa, although not by me. A few more stories like this, including many about the dangers of trekking through miles of human waste in Nepal, causes me to regard my own toilet with increasing affection. The first flushable toilet was described in by Sir ohn H arington, an English courtier and godson of Q ueen Eliza beth. H owever it was almost 300 more years before the concept was perfected and marketed by a gentleman by the name of T homas Crapper in 1880. Y es that really was his name, get over it. T he design has not changed much since its invention, except for the cistern. T his was originally a large tank mounted high on the wall behind the loo that was flushed with a chain the water flooded down with an alarming roar. Gradually the cistern was contained behind the toilet itself and flushes became much less dramatic. The apanese have brought the loo to a fine art form. isitors to apan are often intimidated to find a range of buttons on or near the loo lettered with apanese characters there are no subtitles.

At the other end of the hygiene spectrum are the hills and fields of the simple and very poor people of Sumba. or over 10 years I’ve been writing about Proj ect H ope S umba (PH S ), an excellent NGO active in S umba Barat Daya, one of the poorest areas of one of Indonesia’s poorest islands. O ne of their proj ects is to provide materials for toilets, which the villagers construct themselves. A new proj ect for PH S is to provide toilets for 300 families, nearly all subsistence farmers, in the remote desa of W ee R ame in W ewewa T engah. About half the population has only elementary school education and most have no regular income. T he desa was chosen by PH S because of the cooperation of the kepala desa, and the intelligence and motivation of some of the very physically disabled people there. A priority is to construct toilets for families with disabled children but it’s necessary to also provide them to ordinary families to prevent j ealousy and for general community hygiene. T he tested and well accepted toilet design includes two chambers; when one is full the contents are left to become compost. Building materials in Eastern Indonesia are more expensive than in Bali due to high transport costs. T he total of purchased materials for each toilet is about R p 1.6 million, with the villagers providing all the local materials and labour.

T he twice yearly festival of Galungan commemorates the celebrated battle of good over evil and is one of Bali’s most colourful celebrations as every street in Bali is decked out with soaring bamboo poles called penj ors. T he penj ors are decorated with typical products celebrating the harvest and some get q uite fanciful with neon lights and moving widgets and gadgets. W hile Galungan is decidedly a very Balinese observance, it is a great opportunity for taking a ride or walk through the streets to gawk at all the splendidly decorated penj ors.

T his ceremony is an enactment of the end of the Blambangan war, fought sometime in the 17th century between the kingdom of M engwi and East Java’s Blambangan kingdom. Legend has it that the M ekotekan ritual was conducted to welcome the kingdom’s soldiers back from the battlefield after fighting the Blambangan battle. O n their way to M engwi they passed M unggu village, where local residents cheered them as the winners of the war. T he tradition involves men carrying long wooden poles which they stack to form a huge pyramid. S ome men will climb the pyramid to “ face off” with each other whilst cheered on by the onlookers. T his ritual is an important cultural event for the village of M unggu. V isitors are welcome to watch the proceedings, though they are not invited to participate as it is considered disrespectful to the Balinese people.

Kulture Kid The Balinese Addiction to Water Wrapped in Plastic By Vaughan Hatch

Perhaps the hottest topic in the media in Bali today is plastic waste: the beaches, rivers, rice fields, forests, mountains, parks, roadsides, soil, temples, banjar, public spaces, universities, schools, households, ceremonies, festivals, events, government offices they’re all overflowing with it. This non-biodegrable, un-recycled, often unrecyclable toxic waste is mostly single-use plastic. “Toxic???” you squeal, “Surely not?”. Yes. Based on recent and ongoing scientific research, consuming anything in single-use plastic has a health risk associated with it: the most shocking (for those who read, care or who are even C/CE/I-07 Nov 18

vaguely interested) results were about micro-plastics in “mineral water” (I use quotes because a lot of mineral water worldwide is in fact not mineral water, well not with any extra minerals added at any degree). These results were widely published, appeared on news networks worldwide, and were shared extensively on social media. As usual, after the storm passed and people’s short memories regenerated new synapses, little is mentioned about it today – in fact, if anything, consumption worldwide particularly in developing countries of water sold in single-use plastic is on an exponential rise. Great for these water companies that are not only raping the world’s finite water resources, but who are also contributing significantly to global climate change due to the

transportation required to access, distribute, filter, package and recycle (if it ever happens) the water and the packaging. Not to mention the water wasted when packaged water is only partly consumed and then discarded.

Today we have a nation addicted to single-use plastic that I see started with the packaging of water, well at least this product (access to which should be a human right and not something that is bought and sold in my opinion because after all we cannot live without it) would have been the easiest to market as a healthy solution as opposed to plastic bags C/CE/G-7 Nov. 18

which may have been introduced around this time also. The conviction culturally in Bali is that packaged water is not only healthy, but it also reflects social status and is the proper way to serve guests. This has been extrapolated to other types of food and drink – today it is extremely unusual to be a guest anywhere where one is served something that is not wrapped in single-use plastic. Not only is this extremely concerning in terms of the plastic waste it creates but it is also potentially detrimental to one’s health and of course an expensive way to live for people in a developing economy. How did Bali end up in this tragically avoidable situation? In the next issue I’m going to talk a bit about the emergence of packaged water in Indonesia and how it possibly could have been avoided.

The stories are fictional works but nevertheless speak to the truth and have a basis in fact and lived experiences. lthough not all the stories are written by women, the protagonists are all women. ll are socially or culturally constrained in some way by the structural injustice of adat customary law, by their sexuality, by their working environment, by their obligation to raise children and by their marriages. ost find ways to circumvent or overcome these constraints and exert their own individuality. The victories are not always occasions for grand celebration indeed, they are not necessarily obvious to anyone but the woman herself, but each victory represents a significant step on her road to emancipation.

It’s no secret that prostitution is widespread in Indonesia as a result of women seeking better paying sources of income. This equali ation of women in Indonesian society has resulted in a multitude of risks such as the ever-present threat of HI . In the story “ waiting Silence,” the transvestite narrator has turned her potentially vulnerable position into one where she can exercise autonomy and not allow others - for example, a pimp or rival sex worker - to make key decisions about her working life. In “ Good an,” li and her co-sex workers perceive themselves to be free and untrammeled, working as they do at the high-end of the prostitution business. or them, their emancipatory action is to refuse to tread the same path as their friend is, who has traded the precarious freedom of life as a prostitute for a life in which she is financially comfortable yet completely beholden to the man who has taken her as his second wife.

s she does in almost any discussion of women in Indonesia, aden jeng artini ( ) makes her presence felt throughout this volume. The Indonesian feminist movement itself is considered to date from the start of the th century with the writings of artini, the daughter of a avanese aristocrat. The artini ideal is at the heart of uti ijaya’s story called simply “ artini” in which the male protagonist is forced through a chance meeting with artini and subsequent arguments with his exasperated wife and feisty teenage daughter, to confront his own prejudices about the place of women in society, which he concedes are based on a mythologi ed and glorified version of the artini story.

The stories about migrant domestic workers are the most poignant in the book. ured by the prospect of making fast cash, whether it be alaysian ringgit, Saudi real or Hong ong dollars, the young women who take the long journey from their villages to an often-unknown overseas destination are assigned to an employer they know nothing about. arni, the main character in “ orcelain Spoon,” thought that luck was on her side when she arrived in Singapore and discovered to her relief that she would not be living in a high-rise apartment and one day “float away.” ver the years, hundreds of Indonesian and ilipina maids have fallen to their deaths from high-rise apartments while hanging out laundry or cleaning windows. “ o Going Back to Saudi rabia” as well as the unnamed protagonist in “I ant to Go Home” are melancholy tales about migrant workers who are terrified of being sent home as it would symboli e failure and a significant loss of face. hile many migrant workers are free to go home regularly and shower their families with money and gifts, they do not reveal to their loved ones the dark side of life in foreign lands where, unprotected by the law, workers may be subject to rape or physical and emotional abuse.

The obligations of adat law often fall more heavily on women than they do on men, in particular with regards to marriage. The poignant tale of asni, the nine times divorced protagonist of “The oman from ount ntang,” is testament to the patriarchal nature of the institution of marriage. arrying a series of slea y men in order to please her father, the na ve and ignorant asni is little more than an object to be bought and sold. s shown in the story, “In emoriam The owager mpress,” women can also exhibit power in the name of a adat law. ike T u H’si, the tyrannical concubine of the emperor of the in dynasty, the dowager empress in this story is a powerful matriarch who commands unswerving respect from her five children and their offspring. Terrori ing them all by forcing them to conduct their lives according to strict adat laws, the only escape for her granddaughter, the narrator, is to leave her place of birth and cross the Sunda Strait to ava to begin a new life. urther east in the archipelago, the seven-year-old Balinese girl in “Bunga” challenges the rigidly enforced rules governing Balinese dance, but is shunned by the caste conscious adults of her village who fear contamination on account of her being fatherless and having a prostitute for a mother.

from a brutal and loveless marriage into a loving lesbian liaison with her lover ini. In order to come to terms with this daring new love, the protagonist an must relive an earlier lesbian love affair with a woman named orena. hen the relationship was discovered, an was confined to the family home until a suitable husband could be found. This treatment of an after her affair with orena was considered the only way to “cure” her. The family’s shame is palpable in this story, although it is expressed through actions rather than words.

The claims of the protagonist of “The Good but vil en” about the goodness of her husband belie the physical beatings he repeatedly dishes out to her. This is a universal tale of domestic violence, whereby a woman is so blinkered to her husband’s malevolence that she will use any reason to justify it and hence to justify continuing to live with him. Such persistence in remaining in a destructive marriage is also seen at its extreme in “ y ather,” where the narrator, who has fled to akarta to escape her oppressive and patriarchal Batak childhood ( children, most of them boys, still sponging off their parents) returns periodically to face her mother’s tears and accusations towards her father. “Saga” is an exuberantly sexual tale of one woman’s escape

I m oman is a treasury of inspiring stories about powerless women who resourcefully negotiate their complex circumstances. s deliberate political statements, they represent a wide spectrum of women’s experiences. In the face of enormous barricades placed on them by tradition, religion, marriage, work and family, these women make pragmatic appraisals of what is possible. ather than accepting disempowerment, we witness women who are able to carve out special, successful and ingenious outcomes for themselves, all revealed in the dramatic and eloquently expressed stories in this thin volume.

Montessori School Bali : An Amazing Education From Birth To Adolescence alm, peaceful, tranquil These words are often used to describe the atmosphere of School Bali ( SB) classrooms.

ontessori

bservers see children going about their day, choosing for themselves what they will do, managing their work and social engagements, and doing complex tasks both on their own and with their peers, often without a teacher in sight. They also comment frequently on how respectful the children and teachers are with each other. The ontessori method of education, devised by Italian physician aria ontessori to follow the needs of the individual child by carefully observing them, has been around for more than a century. This year, ontessori School Bali celebrated the th anniversary of its founding here in Bali. The school opened its purpose-built classrooms on expansive, park-like grounds in anggu last year, and now offers authentic ontessori programmes for children aged six weeks of age through to adolescence. ll of the school’s lead guides, or teachers, are trained by the ssociation of ontessori Internationale, the highest possible qualification for a ontessori teacher to hold. SB had humble beginnings back in , in a house on Seminyak’s alan aksmana then surrounded by rice paddies, with one preschool class of children. attalia Sinclaire, a committed ontessorian who established the school, saw how well the programme was received in the community and a second preschool class opened in . rom there, the school grew steadily, becoming the first international school in Bali permitted to enrol Indonesian students, and adding lower primary and upper primary classes. This academic year, an dolescent rogramme for to year olds was added. Baby and e programme allows babies to experience a ontessori environment with a carer, while a new Toddler rogramme has proved so popular it can now only offer places on a waiting list from anuary. hat’s so special about the ontessori approach to education? Several elements are worth noting ixed-age classrooms with peer mentoring student choice of activities freedom of movement and respectful relationships. Students emerge from a ontessori education with academically sound fundamentals, plus strong skills when it comes to crucial traits needed in today’s world like being innovative, creative, socially at ease and leaders. hy choose ontessori? Because you want an education that will serve your child well in a rapidly changing world. ast ontessorians include Google founders arry age and Sergey Brin, ma on founder eff Be os, obel-pri e winner Gabriel Garcia arque , ulit er-pri e winner nthony oerr, and chef and author ulia hild. ome see for yourself what words you would use to describe

Uff19’S ‘Spice Up The World’ Theme: A Feast of Ideas to Make Indonesian Food Go Global Ubud, INDONESIA From 26–28 April, 2019, Indonesia’s most outstanding chefs, producers, restaurateurs, entrepreneurs, food photographers, storytellers, scientists and activists will converge in Bali for the Ubud Food Festival Presented by ABC (UFF). In its fifth year, Indonesia’s leading culinary event will celebrate the nation’s diverse cuisines and exciting gastronomic scene with food lovers from near and far through the theme ‘Spice Up the World’. While other Southeast Asian food cultures such as Vietnamese and Thai are adored internationally, Indonesian cuisine is far behind. But this is changing. Indonesian restaurants are opening their doors on foreign soil more rapidly than ever before. Hungry for new flavors, the culinarily curious are seeking out Indonesian food’s intriguing complexity. Food trucks specializing in Indonesian street eats are delighting foodies from Melbourne to Manhattan. In Jakarta and Bali, local establishments are lifting regional dishes to world class standards. The playful and invigorating theme will explore the most effective ways to make the food of Southeast Asia’s most populous nation ‘go global’. From spotlighting international best practice and individual success stories, to championing

local heroes elevating Indonesian food to new heights, to breaking down boundaries to foreign exposure, UFF19 will serve up a feast of ideas to spice up the world with Indonesian food. “Since our inaugural year, sharing Indonesia’s extraordinary cuisines and fascinating culinary cultures has been at the heart of the Ubud Food Festival,” commented UFF Founder & Director Janet DeNeefe. “We know Indonesian food isn’t as well-known overseas as the cuisines of its Southeast Asian cousins, but this won’t be for long! The ‘epicurious’ with adventurous palates are starting to be enticed by the strong aromas, captivating cross-cultural histories, and fiery flavors. “This is why, for our fifth year, we chose the theme Spice Up the World – to show food lovers across the globe that it’s time they added some Indonesian dishes to their list of favorites, and through this, learn something about Indonesia. Food is, after all, the easiest way to access a culture,” DeNeefe continued. Sharing the Festival’s passion for celebrating Indonesian food at home and with the world, the UFF is proud to announce that ABC, one of Indonesia’s leading food brands, will be its Presenting Partner for a second year. Dhiren Amin, Head of Marketing, Southeast Asia at Kraft Heinz ABC, commented, “We are thrilled to be the UFF’s Presenting Partner for 2019. As a home-grown Indonesian food brand, ABC is committed to supporting Indonesia’s culinary scene.

C/U/G-26 Sept. 18

“Our continued partnership with the UFF is testament to our passion for popularizing Indonesian cooking, and the many dishes that deserve to be known and loved internationally. In addition to our shared vision, the Festival’s theme ‘Spice Up the World’ is a natural extension of ABC’s dedication to Indonesian sambal. If there is one thing that unites Indonesia’s diverse cuisines, it is sambal,” Amin concluded. “We are extremely excited to have ABC back with us for a second year,” commented DeNeefe. “Our shared vision and passion makes our partnership enduring, and we extend our sincere thanks to everyone at ABC for their continued support, which will help us deliver our best and spiciest Festival yet. “We are once again looking forward to welcoming food lovers from across the archipelago and beyond for our fifth year, and we hope you’re ready to help us spice up the world with Indonesian food!” DeNeefe concluded. UFF19 runs from 26-28 April, 2019. First program announcement will be made in mid-February, with the full program live and tickets on sale in late February.

It’s through the cracks that light gets in U BUD NEWS By Ines Wynn

Mental illness is an insidious and progressive disease, especially when it is not properly diagnosed and treated or, as happens so often in Bali, the people suffering from psychopathic conditions are considered to be living out their due karma and must bear their lot. Hence these people are typically hidden from public view as much for their own safety and that of their family and community as to hide the shame of having a karma-heavy relative reside in the family unit. Even in current times, many of these cases are not treated properly and you often hear horrid stories of people being chained up to prevent them from wandering or worse, from hurting themselves and their immediate caregivers. Stories of being chained up for 20 years or more are not rare. Clearly, the stigma attached to this disease is heavy and shameful to the people afflicted and their families. These unfortunates are mostly found in remote regions and among impoverished families. But not always. Even among the better off or educated families, their mentally challenged relatives are not always treated better. In part this can be attributed to the fact that historically, professional psychiatric care in Bali has not been widespread and people with mental issues were typically treated – very unsuccessfully at that – by local shamans and the village balians or healers. Psychiatric care is a specialty health service. Sadly, in the past few young medical students would choose that field and therefore, competent psychiatric care was, for a long time, unavailable or very restricted. You could say that in terms of mental health services, Bali has long lived in the dark ages and has only in recent times been waking up to the reality that mental illness should be treated like any other physical disease, out in the open, by competent doctors and with effective therapies. From slow beginnings that knowledge is now rapidly expanding and coming into the light of day. Unfortunately there are still some places in Bali where that realisation has not yet taken a secure foothold or is at best just slowly creeping through the cracks. Many Balinese people, especially among the older generation, still accept mental health issues fatalistically as a karma disease and few believe in successful treatments and rehabilitation of mental health patients. Fortunately there are some NGOs in Bali who have been aware of that arrears for many years and seek out and treat people with mental health problems and psychiatric conditions. One of these is Yayasan Solemen Indonesia whose Outreach team has made it a point to seek out the hidden cases and tear away the ignorance that keeps people shackled and away from competent medical care.

Solemen has booked some dramatic successes and shared a few of their cases. Caged Made, as he came to be known at Solemen, is a poster child for the successful rehabilitation of mental illness. The Solemen Outreach team first met Made in 2014 when he was shackled in a dirty cage with no running water, a bare cement floor and no facilities whatsoever. At 45, he had a 10-year history of mental illness that was eventually diagnosed as Schizophrenia. Although he had no history of physical violence he was caged because he went around his village asking for cigarettes while holding a machete so the community was concerned he might become violent and pose a threat to their safety. Solemen arranged for medical assessments and began treating him. Made received medication and psychiatric care by Solemen’s partner and volunteer psychiatrist dr. Gusti Rai. At the same time the team renovated his house, released him from his cage and began taking him on socialisation trips with his family. In 2016 and 2017 Made had a number of relapses with hallucinations and began wandering the streets again looking for cigarettes and displaying some violent behaviour. As a result he was admitted at a mental health facility in Bangli, his medication was reassessed and increased. After his release he was put under observation to ensure that his medication was taken correctly. Currently Made receives ongoing assessments and periodic revaluations of medications and living conditions. Made appears to be doing well now but must continue regular mental health assessments.

better shape thanks to frequent monitoring visits by the team and squeals with delight when she spots them coming into her compound. These stories are attention-grabbing because their recoveries were swift and the Before and After situations are remarkable. It took a relatively straight forward and focused approach to make an enormous difference in the quality of the lives of these two people. More people like Made and Ketut are being helped thanks to the Solemen CSR partnership programme and the generous efforts of Solemen corporate sponsors like Finn’s Beach Club, the Hard Rock Hotel and the Bali Dynasty Resort who underwrite medical care and treatments. CSR programmes such as these create wonderful opportunities for small NGOs such as Solemen to enable the work they do with the disadvantaged in Bali. It allows them to seek out the people who are most in need, yet are most likely to be bypassed by existing programmes. They are the people who slip through the cracks. And there are many of them, mostly in remote, impoverished areas or from families or communities who don’t want their misery or poverty exposed and try to keep their suffering loved ones hidden and hence removed from a treatment system they do not trust or simply do not know about. Doctors, hospitals and medical attention cost money and that can be reason enough for impoverished families to abandon all hope for treatment for their loved ones. They simply do not have money and therefore cannot afford to seek treatment. They rely instead on local healers (balians) or shamans and hope for the best. While these balians can help in many cases, some diseases or conditions, like mental health issues, are too complex for their skills. Mental illness does not have to be hidden. Each affected person, like all people, has a right to competent and dignified treatment because each person is unique in their own right and mental health rehabilitation can make a huge difference in their lives. Today, a lot more is being done in Bali to treat these patients and thanks to organisations like Solemen and their CSR partners, the cracks are widening and letting more light seep in.

Other cases may not be as dire as that of Made but can still be heart-breaking. Like that of Ketut, a women in her mid-thirties with serious mental development issues and suffering from Schizophrenia. She was living in her family’s compound in a dirty and dilapidated shack, could not tend to her own needs or personal hygiene and spent her days grovelling around in the dirt or the mud crying and in utter disarray and confusion. The Solemen Team took charge of her rehabilitation by getting her condition assessed, upgrading her sleeping and living quarters, providing her with clean clothes and bedding and putting her on medication and better nutrition. Today, Ketut is in much

The Solemen corporate sponsorship programme is an impressive opportunity for the Bali business community to join Solemen’s efforts to let the light of understanding, empathy, healing and rehabilitation bring succour and help to the people who need it. www.solemen.org
