Say What? C/Ho/I-22 July 15

Question: I grew up a “diplobrat,” moving from place to place every 3 to 4 years. I am great at making acquaintances, have had no friends since childhood, and am a natural introvert. I’m also a great bridge-burner. Friendship goes sour? Best to end it now. No sense postponing the inevitable. I am a master of emotional control and feign emotion only for those I don’t respect, but now I find myself in a bit of a situation. My fiance’s roommate is very different from me. As such, there is an enormous potential for misunderstanding between us. Recently my fiancé and I did something careless and his roommate’s laptop got stolen. Even though I offered to replace it, the roommate displayed a lot of angry, overly emotional feelings, and I had to feign empathy in order to deal with it. I don’t normally do that for people I respect, and I feel offended that he essentially forced me to lie. Do my genuine reactions mean so little to him that he’d have me perform a task reserved only for the irrelevant? A little bit of me dies inside. Normally, this is my cue to sever the friendship. As my fiance’s best friend, however, this is not someone who is easy to ditch. I stand at the edge of a bridge, torch in hand, wondering whether I should drop the torch, or if I should “patch things up,” a skill with which I’m entirely unfamiliar. How on earth do people patch things up with others who aren’t of sympathetic personality? Should I just move on and make new friends because this one was insulting? How do normal human beings overcome such rifts when burning bridges is impractical? Dr. ZZ: Your description of friendship sounds cold and pathetically lonely. Obviously, you developed the pattern of “dump before you get dumped” in childhood; you may want to consider therapy in order to examine your ability to feel feelings and empathize with others. “I maintain perfect emotional control” isn’t something to brag about. It makes you sound phony and, frankly, scary. If you want to patch things up with this person, follow through on replacing the laptop as you’ve promised, apologize again, and then give him space for a couple of weeks. Adjust your routine so that your fiance comes to your place instead of your staying there. Then resume normal relations. You don’t have to do anything special, but don’t call this friendship. “Do my genuine reactions/personality mean so little to him he’d have me perform a task only reserved for the irrelevant?” is chilling. Who are “the irrelevant”? It’s as if people must secretly audition for you before you recognize them as people. In losing respect for them, feeling justified in lying to them because they failed the audition, and then blaming them for “making” you do that,

you become someone who’s just faking it until something better comes along. Seriously, get that checked out. Eventually you’re going to want a more sustainable relationship. Question: I want to have a child, and I need to make plans with my boyfriend that start now and end with us having a baby. The problem is I repeatedly rehearse without delivering scripts. Some of them I discard because they are unfair, and because there is no reason to approach this from a position of score keeping, or of how patiently I have been waiting for this, or of which of our friends already have kids. The script once would have been: We need to think about having children before my dad loses his sight and can’t see them, and before my mom is too weak to pick them up. Now it is too late for that; I unexpectedly lost my mom 7 months ago. I will never be able to have her in the delivery room, or staying with me the first few months to answer all the little everyday questions that come up when learning how to take care of a new little person. I’ll have my dad, but I know it will be hard for him, knowing how much Mom wanted this for me, and that she is not here to experience it. I don’t want to put all this on my boyfriend. This is the situation, and any part of me that would consider blaming him for taking all these things away from me by delaying this talk is too busy blaming myself for being selfish in general and leaving home in the first place. I know that this is the situation, and I must live in this version of reality -not all the ones with paths I could have taken, or circumstances that could have turned out differently.

C/E/I-22 July 15

It will be difficult for me to be pregnant and have a child without Mom, but I am ready for it. I just don’t know how to start the conversation. Can you help me? Dr. ZZ: The latest script you’ve developed sounds great, and I’m so, so sorry about your mother. Let go of the years you’ve waited to ask this question. If you haven’t been talking with your boyfriend about this right along, he doesn’t know about the missed opportunities and the times you bit your tongue. His part in the conversation starts now, and the less you carry with you expectations from the past, the better. Don’t assume or say that you know he’s not ready, don’t apologize for possibly freaking him out, and don’t make it about your loss. You don’t need a perfectly-argued, logical case or the perfect moment. You want it; that’s a reason enough to ask for it. Just open your heart, and risk to speak. Copyright © 2015 Say What?

Plenty of Fish – Aquaculture in Bali

In a kinder, wiser and more environmentally sustainable world, we’d all be vegetarians. It takes almost 7 kg of feed to yield one kg of beef, and all that corn, soy, grass and grain needs a lot of land and labour to produce. The ratio is almost 3 kg of feed per kilo of pork and 1.7 kg feed per kg of chicken. About 18% of greenhouse gas emissions come from animals being raised for meat. Then there are the ethical issues of transporting and slaughtering these millions of creatures. Indeed, meat is cruel, wasteful and unsustainable. If only bacon didn’t taste so good.

good water quality, so keeping the water clean is better for everyone. Not using chemicals demands better management strategies and reduces costs. Treating labour fairly increases productivity and complying with regulations reduces legal costs.” I asked Rob what all these ¿sh were being fed. While the certi¿ed producers use mainly commercial feed pellets, the majority of Bali’s small scale grouper farmers still use ‘trash’ ¿sh (¿sh that is not commercially valuable). This is not only unsustainable but also introduces disease which signi¿cantly lowers survival rates. So although the pellets are more expensive the higher survival rate more than makes up for the operating cost; this is a steep learning curve for unsophisticated farmers who live hand to mouth and they are slow to change.

Fish farming is emerging as the most sensible and environmentally sound system of providing protein to the world. By decreasing the size of fish, aquaculture technology has reached a 1:1 feed conversion ratio with one kg of feed Strict international yielding one kg of ¿sh.

C/CI/G-13 May 15

certi¿cation ensures high quality ¿sh and environmental stewardship

Twenty years ago, aquaculture was a dirty word and diners often turned up their noses at farmed ¿sh. But the industry has come a long way. With wild ¿sh stocks declining and the world population increasing, it’s important to increase protein sources which don’t impact the environment. Strict international certi¿cation ensures high quality ¿sh and environmental stewardship.

Aquaculture has been around a long time; the ¿rst written textbook on the subject was published in China in about 400 BCE. Half of all ¿sh eaten today are from aquaculture sources. Over 90% of these are from Asia and Indonesia is a major player. Aquaculture has become the backbone of the nation’s ¿sheries sector, supplying both the domestic and international markets. The government has set a target to produce 31 million tons of ¿sh from aquaculture by 2019, twice the current production. I was surprised to learn that Bali has a thriving aquaculture industry including freshwater fish, marine fish, shrimp, seaweed and pearl oysters. I spoke with Rob Garrison, an aquaculture specialist for 35 years. His company, BaliBarra, produces barramundi for export. “North Bali is the center of the aquaculture industry here,” he told me. “The government Gondol Institute for Mariculture Research is located here and was instrumental in developing a simple ¿sh hatchery technology for this area. There are well over 100 ¿sh hatcheries in north Bali growing mostly milk¿sh, grouper, and barramundi (Asian Sea Bass) and employing over 1,000 people.” This area has 865 sea cages, mostly traditional cages measuring from 2m square up to 6m x 6m. Several farms use larger circular cages of 10m and 20m diameter, mostly for barramundi. There are also quite a few shrimp ponds, and the number is currently increasing because of higher prices due to disease in Thailand and Vietnam. Most of this fish is exported. Grouper is sold almost exclusively alive to Hong Kong; boats with live haul tanks visit the farms to collect the ¿sh and transport them to Hong Kong. The milkfish are sold as fry (juvenile fish) and exported to Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam. The barramundi is mostly exported to Australia with some going to the US. Fish farming used to have a bad name because of waste and disease issues and the heavy use of antibiotics in the feed. But in the past few years Indonesia’s ¿shery exports to Europe have come under increasing scrutiny and have been subjected to sustainability certi¿cation. “These days it’s almost impossible to export ¿sh to the EU and North America unless it has been certi¿ed by one of the international NGOs that require good environmental practices,” Rob explained. “These include routine water quality monitoring to ensure there is no pollution entering the water, fair labour practices, limited or no use of chemicals and compliance with all relevant regulations. All the major seafood buyers as well as governments routinely test product to ensure there have been no antibiotics or unapproved chemicals used.” “This market force that demands good, clean and fair product has lifted the overall standard of operations for all types of aquaculture,” he pointed put. “Not surprisingly, growers have learned that operating this way actually increases pro¿tability. The number one thing aquaculturists require is

The feed companies are lowering the content of ¿sh meal and oil in the pellets and substituting plant proteins, but some ¿sh content is necessary to maintain Omega 3 and other nutritional bene¿ts to humans. Eventually ¿sh meal and ¿sh oil in feed will be replaced by algae that can produce Omega 3 etc and/or insect larvae that feeds on seafood waste. “The Indonesian Government is upgrading their standards and we will see continued improvement. Also WWF Indonesia is creating aquaculture best management practices under their Seafood Saver program for Indonesian growers. They will bring in all stakeholders, including seafood dealers and chefs. This will increase the market demand for sustainably grown seafood in Indonesia.” Bali’s seaweed farming industry is centred in Nusa Lembongan. Several hundred families cultivate seaweed, most of which is exported to Japan. But increasing development has reduced the area of beachfront on which to dry the seaweed and the families make a better living working in tourism. Because the farmers sell the seaweed to middlemen instead of directly to the main buyers they receive less than the actual value. So this industry may be winding down. Shrimp is a major export item, and in 2010 then-President SBY ordained that Indonesia should become completely self-contained in shrimp production. A National Broodstock Centre was opened in Bugbug, North Bali in 2012, which includes a nursery to generate the shrimp spawn which had previously been imported. It was a wise and timely initiative. Shortly afterward a massive outbreak of Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS)spread from China and Vietnam to wipe out baby shrimp in Thailand, once the world’s top shrimp producer. Shrimp prices soared up to 50% during the international shortage. Indonesia look set to continue as a major exporter. The other major aquaculture industry in Bali is cultured pearl farming. Atlas Pearl has a large hatchery and sea nursery site in north Bali. After the oysters grow large enough the pearl nucleus is implanted and the oysters are transported to growout sites all around Indonesia while the pearls develop.

We used to be told that there were plenty of ¿sh in the sea; this is no longer true. Indonesia is working hard to ensure that its wild caught fish meet international certification standards in sustainability and social conditions. But the enormous amount of poaching by Chinese and Thai fishing boats continue to deplete Indonesia’s ¿sh stocks. Sustainable aquaculture seems to be the only solution that will keep ¿sh on the plates of future generations.

Hard Rock Hotel and Solemen - All About Love Saturday 20th June Hard Rock Hotel and Solemen Indonesia hosted one of Bali’s biggest charity concerts to date. Celebrities Andre Hehanussa and Raisa Andriana performed live at Centre Stage and stunned the crowd with their sheer brilliance. Fifteen reporters from Jakarta kicked off the evening with Solemen introducing some of their children via a press conference followed by a series of interview questions for Raisa, Andre, Robert and Shane Coates (General Manager Hard Rock Hotel Bali). As the night progressed and the crowd started to filter through, an auction was held, the coveted prize being two dresses donated by Tamara Bleszynski, (Solemen’s Ambassador). Buzzing with anticipation, the crowd’s excitement was palpable as bidders waged war against each other for the opportunity to secure these items. The total raised for both dresses was an overwhelming IDR 93,000,000. Bali’s very own Governor Pastika appeared on stage with Robert Epstone (Founder of Solemen) and declared himself Solemen’s Perlindung (Guardian). Andre’s passion for Solemen and helping the disadvantaged people of Bali saw him smashing out song after song and the crowd applauded with appreciation for having witnessed

such a performance from a legendary artist. Raisa’s voice filtered through the room and her outstanding vocal range and capacity sent the audience into a frenzy, cheering her on for more! The audience joined together in LOVE and HOPE as the night grew on. It was the ideal opportunity to further raise awareness regarding Solemen’s work with the disadvantaged in Bali, with a view to increased interest and future assistance. Altogether with auctions, Andre’s CDs, tickets and merchandise sales, corporate sponsorships and donations, the night raised approximately IDR 351,923,000. This

Let’s Get Hot and Sweaty

A few weeks ago, I got all hot and sweaty. Now before you begin the eye rolling and scoffing about the obviousness of that statement, (no, the fact that I live on a tropical island has not escaped my notice) I mean I got really hot and sweaty, at my first ever bikram yoga class. Prior to this experience, when I was indeed a bikram virgin, I had assumed any activity, yoga or otherwise on this island could be termed bikram purely due to Bali’s relentless heat and humidity. Not so! My close friends and exercise buddies can all attest to my tendency to perspire profusely after moderate activity but I

can safely say I was not alone in my sweaty state during my first ever bikram yoga class. Despite my initial concerns as to whether I could withstand 90 minutes of even the mildest of movements in this somewhat stifling room, I soon began to enjoy the process, the mental calm and the sensation of tension and toxins being released from my body as the class progressed. I could see how this might be habit forming, not to mention healthy and possibly a way of atoning for those wee wines on the weekend! Jiwa Bikram Yoga is Bali’s only accredited Bikram studio. Each class comprising a sequence of 26 postures practiced in a room heated to 38 degrees Centigrade to promote flexibility and provide a safe environment to deepen your Yoga practice. Bikram Yoga really is for everyone. All postures are beginners postures, nothing too strenuous and certainly achievable at any age.The 90 minute class systematically works your entire body keeping you healthy inside and out. You will sweat! A lot! Cconveniently located on Jalan Petitenget – Jiwa is in the heart of Seminyak. It’s open every day of the year apart

I make my way through the rear garden stylishly scattered with day beds, statues and nik naks to an inviting area with a skillion roof, an assorted selection of seating and tables and staff creating culinary delights. The open kitchen

When Patricia Bos first spied the name ‘Housewives on Fire’ in Amsterdam some years ago, she knew even then, the idea she wanted to cultivate: a living room like space for people to shop, drink, play, eat, relax, read or reminisce! Fast forward a few years and her dream has finally materialised with the opening of her cool cafe and concept store, Housewives on Fire - Food & Fabulous Finds on Jalan Mertanadi in Kerobokan/ Seminyak. Long known for her savvy styling and chic designs, Patricia combines shopping and savouring delicious food with a lick of attitude and a good dose of tongue in cheek!

Mention Canggu News to get your first class at IDR 150,000 (20% discount). It pays to hydrate well before and after class. As perspiration is our body’s way of cooling, it is important to try not to wipe it away (despite the many rivers that are running down your arms.)Rest assured, every other class member is also a Sweaty Betty! The health benefits of Bikram are extensive and well proven. You are never too old, never too late, never too bad or too sick to do a Bikram class. To say “I’m not flexible enough to do Yoga” is exactly the reason you should do Yoga. It is a non-judgmental practice and a very personal journey. Each participant travels their own path and no one is perfect. Day by day you improve and become healthier – mentally and physically. The perfect union between mind and body.

Yay! You can start your day with all of the mouthwatering morning faves like breakfast baguettes, eggs benny, toasts and preserves, along with continental options the likes of toasted coconut bread and stewed apricots with cinnamon. Some of my friends in the know declared the lunch time Prawn and Coconut Laksa ‘the best of the island’ and Nan’s Sausage Rolls ‘even better than mum’s’! Big appetites are catered for with, The Man Board - a medley of chargrilled chorizo, honey soy chicken wings and (of course) Nan’s Sausage Rolls. Or try the Big Bite Board. My kids were more than happy when they spied the ham and cheese toasties, satay skewers and nasi on the menu. Like any creative project, Housewives on Fire will continue to evolve. New additions to this funky space are already underway and patrons will be able to watch real artisans at work while they sip their latte!

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

VOLCANO!! Mount Raung in East Java has been spewing ash into the air for nearly a week, and is showing no signs of stopping. Ash clouds from this eruption our blowing our way and causing no end of disruption on the Island. Bali to has its share of volcanoes; in fact, the entire Indonesian Archipelago is just a chain of ancient scars of volcanic eruptions past. “Mount Agung”, the mother of all mountains in Bali, has been a dangerous and merciless beauty in the past. It is now just over 40 years since she last demonstrated her ¿ery prowess. Ignoring all pleas for mercy, and shunning offering and prayer as her molten skirt swept away village and temple. Will she curse the island once more with her pyre of lava and ash? Who knows? One thing for sure is that you’d better be ready for it when she does!

WHAT IS A VOLCANIC ERUPTION? Volcanoes form when a break in the Earth’s crust allows magma (molten rock) and hot gas to reach the surface under pressure, resulting in dangerous eruptions. There are over 1,500 potentially active volcanoes worldwide with eight to ten erupting at any time. There are at least as many more under the oceans. Paci¿c region countries contain about 80% of these volcanoes, which encircle the Paci¿c Ocean in a belt known as the ‘Ring of Fire’. Indonesia has over 400 volcanoes, 128 of them still active. Gunung Agung in Bali last erupted in 1963. Galunggung volcano in West Java last erupted in 1982, and Rinjani in neighboring Lombok belched in 1994 (I remember my car being covered in ¿ne ash in Sanur!). So are we at risk for a volcanic eruption in Bali? – Absolutely yes! Range of Destruction In the immediate area, main threats are: high-speed, super-heated toxic gases and debris; blast effects; lava Àows; volcanic earthquakes; landslides; collapses; and lahars (mudÀows), while ash clouds or deposits and tsunamis can be hazards much further away. Volcanoes can cause immense destruction to whole towns, crops, forests, roads, etc creating many evacuees who must be sheltered, fed and resettled. Lava Àows may also block streams, causing Àoods, mudÀows and landslides, and disruption in local water supplies. Warning signs. Volcano research and monitoring is increasing in most countries with the common goal of providing greater

warning time of likely eruptions. Bulges in the volcanic crater as well as increased volcanic activity are all signs of an imminent eruption. Earth tremors increasing in strength and frequency are also an ominous sign. Staying Safe During the Eruption • If in the vicinity of the crater, move away as fast as possible. Don’t try to get close to craters or lava Àows to get a better view. High speed toxic gas blasts can travel at over 150 kilometers per hour and are unpredictable. • Listen to radio for information for direction of lava Àow, and possible evacuation instructions. Be aware that Àying away from an area close to an erupting volcano may not always be possible due to ash clouds which clog the aircraft’s engines. • If you are far enough away not to be in immediate danger from lava or volcanic blasts, and yet still exposed to ash and other fall out, make sure that your house is sealed, the windows and doors closed, gaps ¿lled with damp fabric or towels. • If you are in a vehicle keep the windows closed, and do not use air conditioning (¿lters will clog quickly and engine may seize). • Those with pre-existing respiratory conditions may suffer even more due to ash and dust in the air. They may be best to stay indoors and masks may need to be worn outside. Check out our previous awareness. Are you ready??

B EAUTY D ISCOVERY EYELINER Eyeliner is a type of cosmetic used along the rim of the eyes to create a variety of aesthetic effects. Eyeliner is commonly used as a daily make up routine to de¿ne the eye or create the look of a wider or smaller eye. It is also can be used as a tool to create various looks as well as highlighting different features of the eyes. Whether it be with a winged eyeliner or tight lined at the waterline, eyeliner can be placed in various parts of the eye to create different looks. Eyeliner can be drawn above upper lashes or below lower lashes or both, even on the water lines of your eyes. Its primary purpose is to make the lashes look lush, but it also draws attention to the eye and can enhance or even change the eye’s shape. Eyeliner is available in a wide range of hues, from the common black, brown and grey to more adventurous shades such as bright primary colors, pastels, frosty silvers and golds, white and even glitter-Àecked colors.

Type of Eyeliner Depending on its texture, eyeliner can be softly smudged or clearly de¿ned. There are ¿ve main types of eyeliner available on the market: each produces a different effect. 1. Liquid eyeliner is an opaque liquid that usually comes in a small bottle and is applied with a tiny brush or felt applicator and the most dif¿cult type to apply and creates the most dramatic effect, a sharp and precise line. Because liquid eyeliner gives a much heavier appearance, it is often only applied to the upper lashline. 2. Powder-based eye pencil is eyeliner in a wood pencil. It is easier to control and have a more subtle look than liquid eyeliners. Powder-based pencils are harder and can create a more de¿ned line than the wax-based variety. It is generally available in dark shades. 3. Kajal eyeliner is mainly made with a combination of natural ingredients and soot. It is organic in nature, making it soothing for the eye; it also helps protect eyes from infections. 4. Kohl eyeliner is a soft powder available in dark matte shades. It is most often used in black to outline the eyes. It comes in pencil, pressed powder, or loose powder form. This type of eyeliner is more likely to smudge. 5. Gel eye liner, which is a softer gel liner, that can be easily applied with an eyeliner brush. It can be precisely applied and is much softer than Kohl.

How to apply eyeliner Whether you want to know how to create a basic straight line, perfect your cat-eye, or learn creative new tricks, consider this your complete guide to all things eyeliner 1. Top Lashline We will start with the simplest, can’t-screw-it-up way to wear your eyeliner. How to apply: Apply a kohl eyeliner pencil from the inner to the outer edges of your upper lashline. Close your eye and pull your lid taut to draw your line. For your ¿rst pass, wiggle it in between your lashes (it will make them look thicker), and on your second pass make the line thicker if you want. Then use a small chiseled brush or an angled brush to smudge the line to make it softer.

2. Brighten Eyes When you look like you only slept 20 minutes last night, the oldest trick in the book to appear awake and brighteyed is to apply a beige-colored eyeliner to your lower inner waterline. How to apply: With your index ¿nger, gently pull down your lower lid to expose your inner rim. Then with your pencil, gently go over your waterline, taking care to not poke yourself in the eye. 3. Winged Eyes If you want to up the ante with a dazzling cat eye, then liquid eyeliners are your best bet once you develop a steady hand. If you aren’t very con¿dent about your Àickdrawing skills, then you can experiment with a kohl pencil – but it won’t give you the extremely sharp and perfect lines that you want. How to apply: Apply the liner with an angled or pointed brush from the inner to the outer edges of your upper lashline. You want to make your line at a 45-degree angle, starting from your outer corner. Draw the winged tip with eyeshadow ¿rst, so that it’s easier to erase if you mess up. Then go over the shadow with your liquid eyeliner. And to make sure that the wings are straight, hold a business card against the outer corner of your eye to use as a ruler.

4. Cat-eye The cat-eye eyeliner look is a throwback to the ‘70s-era Barbra Streisand with her big hair and greasepaint-lined lids, so if you’re feeling like a diva, this is the perfect style to try. How to apply: With a gel eyeliner, apply a thick line to your upper lashline, extending past your outer corner. Then using short strokes, draw a line from the inner corner of your lower lashline all the way across until you connect to the line on top. You can make the bottom line thicker if you want to evoke a Sophia Lo. 5. Elongated Eye For those with close-set or small eyes, you can lengthen the width of your eyes by focusing your eyeliner at your outer corners. How to apply: Using a gel liner, draw a line from the middle of your upper lashline to the outer edges without winging it. Then apply eyeliner to the outer third corner of your lower lashline, connecting the tip to the line you made above. This is perfect for rounder eyes to create more angles and add a hint of sexiness.

Computer & Internet How did you get there?

Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Jeremy Canaut: Waisak Day at Borobudur Jeremy Canaut was born in 1982 in Bar-Le-Duc in the Lorraine region of eastern France. He was a hyperactive kid, so his parents enrolled him at an early age in f o o t b a l l , gymnastics and tennis sports programs. In 1997, Jeremy entered an elite volleyball high school while earning a high school science degree. Between 2005 and 2008, he completed a university degree in Physical Education, Personal Training and Sport’s Management. Presently, Jeremy teaches yoga at an institute and also gives yoga instruction to individuals in Bali and France. In June 2015, Jeremy of¿cially joined a procession to celebrate the birth of Buddha Siddhartha Gautama during the Waisak ceremony at Borobudur.

At 6 am on June 2nd, we Àew from Denpasar to Yogyakarta, then took a 90-minute taxi ride to Candi Mendut, the starting point of the procession. We had to ¿rst ¿nd a group to join in order to get a “Graal,” the ID card and whole-day pass. We connected with an amazing welcoming group called Mahayana Mejalis. Surrounded by dozens of other groups, we then sat, prayed and meditated for a few hours. We were then generously served a meal with a huge smile and received our Day Pass. After a short rest, at 2 pm, we joined the exciting 5 km walk to Borobudur with more than 5000 other pilgrims. What was the atmosphere like? The atmosphere was joyous, carefree and extraordinarily peaceful. The procession passed by hundreds of people from the surrounding villages who were standing on the sides of the road. Our entry into the majestic Borobudur archeological park went smoothly. The area is impressively spacious. The only time it got crowded was when we came back into the park after a couple of hours rest in our homestay. Many other pilgrims had the same idea at the same time!

What inspired you to go? I’m interested in every religion and philosophy of life. I didn’t need more than few seconds to decide to sign up for the trip and have a chance to participate to this unique Buddhist celebration. I also wanted a chance to visit Borobudur. Waisak actually takes several days of preparation leading up to the peak moment 18 hours before midnight when the moon is full.

We met numerous Buddhist followers and several devoted monks from Jakarta and Thailand. We spent the most time with Ati, a monk from Chiang Mai. Like many monks whom I met, Ati was on a pilgrimage visiting Buddhist sites and communities across Indonesia.

The most amazing moment was before the release of 1000 lanterns when monks led us in the last meditation facing Borobudur during the full moon. I went on an inner journey of love and kindness, which I shared with all beings! We were already in the “spiritual zone” when we arrived, so the release of the 1000 lanterns was an expression of the wishes of all participants for peace on earth.

I only heard about the Waisak celebration a few months ago. The event occurs during the full moon with the Saturn equinox, which makes the concentrated energy of Waisak is very strong, a time when Buddhists believe that human beings are able to receive a multitude of spiritual insights. It is a time when Siddhartha and other enlightened beings come back on earth to share their knowledge with anyone who is open up to receive it. I never thought of attending the event until a friend of mine – just several days before Waisak – invited me to join him on a 36-hour express trip to Borobudur.

ü ü ü ü

Did you meet any pilgrims?

My high school educational experience completely changed my life, channeling my hyperactivity into an in¿nite source of energy. For years I tried to live the dream of becoming a professional volleyball player. The “dream” came to an end after 10 years of competing all over France as a professional athlete and living the life of an eternal student.

Where did you hear of Waisak Day?

FOR RESTAURANT, SHOP & SPA

We stayed in a Homestay that I found on Airbnb called Jalan Nolan, just two km from the Borobudur, owned by a nice Swiss-Indonesian couple. The tariff was relatively cheap, only around US$20. The food cost less then US$3 a meal.

Did you have any kind of spiritual epiphany?

I ¿nally saw the bigger picture and totally changed my lifestyle by immigrating to Australia where I worked in the hospitality industry and operated a personal training business. This lasted two years before I sought a more meaningful life in Bali. Lately, I’ve become more interested in spirituality, practicing yoga and taking up yoga philosophy.

What did you think of the Borobudur monument? Borobudur has got this incredible peaceful energy. The architecture, a huge structure on a mound, reminded me a bit of Angkor Wat. Though it was understandable, the only disappointment was that the monument was closed on Waisak day. What did you learn from whole experience? This unique experience was a real mind opener, especially the time I shared with the Thai monk Ati. We talked about “Sati,” meaning Truth/Honesty and how essential it is to be true to oneself. His vision of Buddhism is to meditate and to be fully aware, one of the keys to happiness. That is the root of Buddhist thought. What advice can you give for anyone wishing to attend Waisak Day? It would de¿nitely advise being better prepared than we were. I would arrive in Yoygakarta several days before the event, so you can mentally prepare yourself and be physically rested to join in on what will be perhaps one of the longest and very likely the most intense days of your life.

UD. TENAGA BARU hotel bed & bath supplies

by Dr. Kris

We supply: • Towels • Bed Linen • Pillows • Mattress

When Mites Attack ‘Dr Kris, I just read a very pleasant article written by yourself about growing chillis. I need some advice. I have a small kebun in Puncak, Java Barat. This year, I have a number of types of chilli plants, including local ones like cabe tanjung and rawit - but also Jalapenos and Habaneros. I have lost most of the stock of over one hundred plants due to (possibly, only 80% sure) BROAD MITES or SPIDER MITES that infest the new growth so that anak daun baru jadi crumpled and cannot grow. Those plants outdoors are not affected. Those under cover of plastic are majority affected. I read on the internet that these pests are very difficult to get rid of. My questions, to anyone with experience in Indonesia, are as follows; Is this a well known pest in Java Barat? What are the local remedies to get rid of? Robert G Miller, Jakarta’ When mites attack they can cause serious damage, even total destruction if not dealt with immediately, and yes they are a well known pest to gardeners anywhere. Mites are a type of arachnid, relatives of spiders, ticks, and scorpions. They penetrate plant tissue and suck the sap out of the leaves primarily feeding on the underside of leaves. This causes distorted leaves, stunted growth, wilting and upwards cupping of the leaves. They breed rapidly in warm weather. Host plants are many and include strawberries, melons, tomatoes, eggplant, flowers, trees and most houseplants. It is also common for chilli plants to be attacked by spider mites. Spider mites will cover plants in a cotton-like web while they feed and shelter and once you have reached this stage you have a severe infestation. Spider mites are tiny whereas broad mites are almost invisible to the naked eye. Both types can devastate an entire greenhouse or crop in a matter of weeks. Like all pests, early detection is the key to controlling them. The infestation doesn’t stop at a single plant it rapidly spreads just as you have described, accordingly it is essential to get rid of mites fast. They will thrive in hot dry conditions or low humidity, making plants kept indoors, under cover or in greenhouses especially vulnerable, they are one of the most common indoor plant pests encountered. Your diagnosis confirms this as you pointed out that your indoor plants have been devastated whilst those outdoors are unaffected. Usually people reach straight for the poisonous chemicals which in this case can actually make the problem worse. To confirm what you are dealing with the first thing to look for is yellow speckles on leaf surfaces. Look on the undersides of leaves (you may need magnifying glass) to identify the 8 legged mites. They are tiny, smaller than a pin head. Also look for the eggs which will be seen scattered around at random. These mites can go from an egg to an adult in just 3 days! To make matters worse spider mites can also windsurf dispersing over wide areas by riding their own webs on the breeze. They can also be carried in by new plants, pets, or even attached to clothing. Careful containment and disposal of severely affected plants is critical. Be sure to inspect any new plant very closely. If mites are found, quarantine them until treated and the mites gone. In some cases the mites and eggs are resistant to poison intended for insects, otherwise develop resistance in a short period. In laboratory tests it has actually been shown that certain pesticides can actually promote mite growth. Using

insecticide will only kill the beneficial insects that might otherwise eat them. For these reasons, it is best to control mites with effective natural and organic methods which are often simple to implement. The first line of defence against spider mites would be a cold water spray. Spider mites do not like to be cold or wet, be sure to spray the undersides of the foliage where the mites live. Healthy watered plants is the first step, drought stress makes them more susceptible to pest infestations. Keep indoor or greenhouse plants moist, with regular water spray/ misting a few times a day during hot weather. Separate infected plants from healthy plants to reduce the chance of migration. Prune leaves, stems, and other infested parts bag in plastic and discard (not the compost). Don’t be afraid to cull entire plants to prevent the mites spreading. A simple effective homemade solution is some dish soap mixed with water sprayed on. Just a tablespoon of liquid soap and vegetable oil to a litre of water, sprayed on should suffice. Shake up the bottle to create suds/foam which will stick to the bugs and make the solution more effective. You could also add some vegetable oil to help the solution stick. This can also be used on aphids, thrips and other pests. If you want to go all out and full on attack them (and I don’t blame you) then try the homemade chilli garlic soap spray. The capsaicin chemical found within chilli kills mites by damaging their nervous system. I hope the irony is not lost on you, since they have attacked your chilli plants! Garlic is also lethal to mites and soap strips the mites of their waxy coating, killing them through dehydration. The soap combined with the chilli serve as an additional deterrent against future attacks. These ingredients can be used in combination or on their own. When mixing and using this spray it is important to avoid contact with the skin and eyes. 5 cloves of garlic (peeled) 5 small hot chillies 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil 2 teaspoons of liquid soap or grated pure soap 1000 ml water Mix these ingredients in a blender and leave for 24 hours. Strain the mixture to remove solids and store in a glass jar in a cool, dark place or the fridge. Use 50mls of this diluted with a litre of water when spraying. Spray the tops and undersides of leaves daily for 5-10 days. The first spray kills the bugs but not the eggs. They hatch in another 3-5 days so you must continue with repeated sprayings, before they mature enough to re-produce. Just targeting the adults will do little if the eggs survive. Repeat treatments are always necessary. If they like your chilli plants so much then give it back to them with the full force of the fruit! If you can get your hands on some, Neem oil is also known to work well as a preventative measure. I hope these tips help you in your mitey battle.

INDIAN NATURAL STONE SPECIAL POOL TILE

DY REA CK STO

“May Your Bebek Go With You” She was wobbling as she rode down the street on the bebek. No helmet, overloaded with shopping and struggling to hold the baby and the handlebar with one arm while sending her very important sms to say she would be late for tonight’s toastmakers meeting with the other, her progress was somewhat haphazard to say the least. As she slowed to make sure she wouldn’t fall off whilest running over the sleeping dog an earpiercing squeal rent the air. It was a horrendous noise like two thousand sadistic teachers scraping their fingernails down two thousand blackboards. It was so bad that even the dog was stirred to get up thereby inadvertently avoiding its fate under the wheels of the careering ibu. It (the squeal of course) while earpiercing was, in fact, nothing to do with the insertion of aural decorations, neither did it come from the nearby Attitude Modification and Anger Management Centre next door. It came, in fact, from the bebek’s brakes and, as is my wont (as opposed to wilt), my engineering mind envisioned bare steel brake shoes, their pads worn away, grinding out the tortured brakedrums of the bebek’s wheels. Now, as any incontinent will tell you, pads can be rather important and, in the case of brakes, the pads allow you to stop without tearing your vehicle to pieces. Surprise, surprise, brakes pads wear out and so have to be replaced from time to time. With most things in life there comes a point in time when a touch of basic maintenance is essential. Also, as in most things in life, if we leave it a little too late it can cost us a lot of money. Even justice systems understand the importance of maintenance and if we omit to carry out a bit of regular maintenance on our marriage we may well find ourselves enrolled in a regular maintenance agreement organised by that ever so thoughtful court of law. At a personal level we all know about cars and motorbikes and we know that if we change our engine oil regularly this will avoid the need for major engine repairs. Surprisingly, in spite of the major investments involved, many people do not think about their homes in quite the same way and will allow their properties to fall into disrepair in the attempt to save a bob or two on what are, in the overall scheme of things, very small amounts of money. Last week we looked at saving money when buying materials and employing people to work on our buildings and this is particularly relevant for emergency or what we call “breakdown” maintenance. But if we really want to keep our properties in good condition at minimal cost it is a good idea to take a strategic preplanned approach to maintenance. This starts by considering maintenance as an essential component in owning a property.

A Strategic Approach to Maintenance Here are some steps you can take to Let us look at the bigger picture and think of a strategic approach to property maintenance 1. Allocate a budget for maintenance This should be appropriate for the value and design of the house. The larger the house obviously the more it will cost you for upkeep. The budget should also reflect the type of construction. Alang alang roofs and wooden sections will need more upkeep. Natural materials such as stone and red brick facings will need a lot less maintenance than painted exteriors. 2. Plan your maintenance Just like servicing your car there are regular things that need to be done. Air conditioners should be cleaned every 3 months, woodwork should be refinished every 2 or three years to protect it from the sun. An alang alang roof will need to be replaced probably after 5 to 8 years (good quality alang alang will last longer). Gutters and downpipes need to be cleaned out once a year before the wet season starts. 3. Get things checked on a regular basis Regular inspection will allow you to monitor deterioration and allow you to plan when work is carried out. Your roof should be checked before the wet season starts. 4. Deal with things that come up in a timely manner There will always be some things that breakdown and it is a good idea to deal with these as soon as possible before further damage occurs. Leaking toilets can leave hard to remove stains on your toilet bowl. Water pumps can be damaged if they are constantly starting and stopping. So do not leave small problems until they become large problems. 5. Buy good quality fittings and materials Good quality fittings will operate correctly and give you long, reliable service. They are also more likely to have spare parts available so they can be repaired.

6. Don’t let your property get too tired If you leave your property to get too tired you are allowing the value of the property to decrease. Not good if for some reason you have to sell it at short notice. When the whole property is looking daggy it starts to be an expensive and quite overwhelming task to get it back up to scratch. It is a good idea to follow a progressive renovation plan. The trick is to upgrade one room or area once a year. Always work on the worst room and endeavour to make it the best room.

If You Have a Problem with.....

7. Incorporate low maintenance design principles in your buildings If you are constructing new buildings or renovating existing ones, think about the long term maintenance issues and plan your building or renovation to minimise breakdown risks and future maintenance costs. You may plan to replace an alang alang roof with tiles. 8. Get yourself organised You need to have established ongoing relationships with the people who you can ring at a moments notice to sort out anything that might come up in a timely manner. Make sure the information is shared so if something goes wrong in your absence the people around you know what to do and who to call. 9. Set your priorities You may also wish to decide on the priorities that best suit your situation. If the property is on a short term lease you will probably not want to spend much, you will want short term, low cost stop gap measures that get you through the time remaining.

And last but by no means least: 10. Trust your maintenance to people you can depend upon If you really want to save money it is best to seek out professional people who will look after you as their client. Find people you have confidence in, test them and progressively build your level of trust in them. You need to seek out honest people, people with integrity who will help you save money on the basis that a long term mutually beneficial relationship is a win win situation. Such people will not try and sell you services or items you don’t need, they will repair things that can be repaired and give sound advice on how to keep costs down while getting the job done properly. At the end of the day established companies have to be competitive. If they are going to survive in the long term they have to satisfy their customers and they have to charge the ‘right’ price. Companies that survive in what is a highly competitive business are likely to employ their own staff so they can be sure that work is being done properly and to retain good staff they will look after them. Once again don’t go for the cheapest price but go for the right price. In most cases a cheap price will mean you will get substandard materials or fittings.

Trust is an important issue. If a worker gives you his phone number and offers to bypass his employer be aware that he is being dishonest to his employer - why should you be able to trust him. Of course most of these strategies are common sense but the very act of verbalising and considering them brings them to the fore and can help to formalise a maintenance strategy. If the property is not worth much you may wish to invest only enough in the maintenance that the building can justify - you will want to avoid over capitalisation but if the property is valuable then it is probably wise to invest as much in maintenance that the property justifies. Finally we might remember the old story of the two men who married twin sisters. Their lives drifted apart until 50 years later they met once again. One husband was quite shocked and said to the other. “My wife is really looking old, she’s grumpy as well. I don’t understand it, our wives are the same age, they are twins but your wife looks fresh, young and radiant. How can this be?” “Regular maintenance” came the reply. “Every month through our married life I have given her some money to go and treat herself. She might have a massage, get her hair and nails done or maybe buy herself some nice clothes. She feels cared for and happy. Maintenance pays for itself in the long run.” Phil Wilson Opinions are those of Phil Wilson. He can be contacted through the websites at www.mrfixitbali.com or through the office on 0361 288 789.

SOCIAL MEDIA BYTES BY : LIZ AFAIK When email become popular, my father was already in his late 60s and still working. I would send him emails, updating him on what I was doing and periodically, I would receive replies from him in the form of posted letters: letters that were actually printed emails. He was composing letters on his email, and then printing out and posting them. When I asked him why he didn’t just send me the emails electronically, he replied that he came from a generation that wrote letters and that ‘you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.’ Then, one day, to my surprise, I received an email from my Dad with the subject heading, ‘Test.’ Thanks to the efforts of a persistent secretary, my father had learned how to send emails without wasting paper. Within the year, my Dad was teaching workshops at scientific meetings on how to make the most efficient use of email. Many people, including seniors themselves, assume that they are too old to learn how to use social media and electronic communication. The irony is that social media is a fantastic way to stay in touch and up to date for seniors, particularly if they live alone or are ‘shut-in.’ Seniors can also access on-going learning through social media, such as MOOCs (Massive Open Online Course), and interact with fellow students, without even needing to leave home. As people age, their physical health and independence and distance from family may cause them to become isolated and alone, and they can easily become depressed. A study done at the University of Alabama showed that regular use of the internet resulted in a 30% drop in depressive symptoms in seniors. Seniors today are living longer, more active lives and often are more willing to learn about social media as a way to stay in touch with family and friends. Seniors who are still working recognise that they need to be familiar and comfortable with social media and the internet in order to stay current in the workplace. Seniors are now the fastest growing group online, and among seniors, the demographic embracing social media the most are those over 74. George Takei, the actor best known for the role of Helmsman Sulu on the original Star Trek series, is one of the most popular figures on Facebook, with more followers than the teen-heart throb Justin Beiber. Takei is now well into his 80s. Currently, there are over 39 million seniors using social media. Seniors are the single fastest growing group on FaceBook, with over 1000% growth every year in numbers in the 65+ age category. The most popular sites for seniors are Facebook, Twitter, Skype and Youtube and 20% of senior users are online for at least an hour each day. A 2014 report by a retirement community company called All Assisted Living Homes showed that 40% of seniors used social media to connect with family and friends, 30% to share photos, 20% for social gaming and 10% for contests and games.

In general, seniors use Facebook for staying in touch with family and reconnecting with old friends or former classmates, and they use Twitter for news, current events, information about health, as well as for finding deals and money-saving offers. Seniors often use Youtube for learning and entertainment, finding old TV programs from their youth, watching favourite movies or instructional videos. On a recent visit home, I gave my 86 year old father a tutorial on using Facebook. His chief complaint was that everyone in the family was sharing photos, anecdotes and messages on the site, but he didn’t know how to use it and was feeling left out. My father is a naturally cautious man and had numerous fears about online privacy and security. I was able to convince him that setting up an account on Facebook didn’t mean he would be besieged later with telemarketing calls at home and showed him how to set the strictest privacy settings on his account. I advised him not to fill out his online profile with any personal or historical details and not to post a birth date. He refused to post a photo of himself, won’t comment on other people’s posts and has limited himself to 13 Facebook friends. However, he is now online, using Facebook and reading all the news from distant cousins around the world. And, more importantly, feeling proud of himself. Dr Laura Carstensen, Director of Stanford University’s Center on Longevity, said that ‘social networking is proving more and more to be an entrance into technology for older adults.’ Once previously tech-phobic or tech-illiterate seniors feel comfortable using easily accessible social media sites like Facebook, they often progress to taking computer classes or online courses and branching out into using other social media sites. Courses on internet safety for older users are also proving popular, as many seniors aren’t aware of potentially dangerous online hazards such as scams, phishing emails, social media or email hacking or financial data theft. Many community centers, retirement villages and nursing homes, as well as special-interest groups for seniors, such as the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), offer free or low-cost workshops on getting started on the internet or online security. Research shows that seniors prefer to view pictures and stories online. At the end of the day, people are still people, whether they are 65 or 25: they want to hear a story or follow a brand they like. Social media marketing expert, Katie Moran, writing in Forbes, says that the same marketing principles apply whether a business is targeting seniors or Millennials online: ‘have a focussed target (market), engage with users, listen carefully and commit to frequent use.’ Some good books for older people wanting to become familiar with the internet and social media are: The Facebook Guide for People over 50 (Paul McFedries) or The Internet for Dummies (John Levine).

The Frugal Balinist *Water Harvesting: If you live in one of Bali’s growing number of dry areas (80% of the island’s watersheds) or in coastal areas where there is irreversible salt water intrusion in aquifers, much energy and time can be saved if you collect water from not only your house roof but also from the roofs of your kitchen, outdoor shed and washroom. A tin metal or ceramic tile (genteng) roof can catch a lot of water when it rains. Plastic gutters (the square type and ¿xtures are more durable than the round type) or even bamboo cut in half can be used as a gutter to collect water and so that it can Àow into a tank or drum. Standard size 750 to 1,000 liter water tanks can be also a lifesaver if your electrical supply is down, the PDAM water pressure is nil or if your water pump malfunctions. Water can be brought into the house through a ¿ltered, simple metal, rubber (selang air) plastic or bamboo piping. You can also install an outside tap on your storage tank, which can be made from cement, or you can buy plastic, stainless steel, tin or aluminium ones from big building supply stores like Mitra 10, Ace and Depot Bangungan. Old drums can also be used, but they must be cleaned ¿rst from left over petrol washing well with detergent, rinsing with water and drying out for one week in the sun before use.

*Replace battery before problems start. Signs that you need a new car battery: cranking of the engine is sluggish; engine light appears; battery’s Àuid level is low; battery’s casing is swollen; gunk is building up around posts; battery is more than four years old. The ¿rst thing to clean are the terminals and cables to make sure they are free of all corrosion. If the battery is just old, it’s probably not an issue with the alternator, starter or solenoid. Even if it doesn’t show any obvious signs of being worn out, the battery’s poor performance can affect your vehicle in negative ways that will slowly add up to a big repair bill. The best battery for sale in Bali is the long life GS HYBRID (Rp750,000 for Toyota Kijang). *Freebies. Some stuff in airlines, restaurants and hotels are totally free because they are meant to be or are only going to be thrown away if you don’t use them or take them. Airlines: in-Àight snacks, candy and fruit; magazines and other reading materials not marked as airline property; miniature bottles or packets of sauces. Hotels: toiletries (including replenished toiletries) like soap, bubble bath, shower foams and gels; consumable items like razors, combs, brushes and stationery; packets of sugar, instant or ground coffee and tea; the Koran or Gideon Bible; promotional items like mugs and imprinted bathtub duckies; complimentary plastic or glass bottles of water; small packets of tissue and sterile wipes. Restaurants: packets of sauces, spices, sugars and sweeteners; plastic containers of water. *New high tech mosquito net. Dengue deaths in Bali doubled between 2014 and 2015. Kopernik’s easyto-install Permanet 2.0 Mosquito Net is made of strong 100% polyester pre-treated with deltamethrin, an insecticide that has been proven safe for humans, particularly for young children and pregnant women. The net has a long-lasting effect as mosquitoes (and other disease-transmitting susceptible vectors) that touch the fabric, die from ingesting the treatment. The mesh size is also very dif¿cult to penetrate. The net requires no re-treatment or dipping and lasts for 20 washes, making it a very

economically attractive as well as an effective defense. Available for Rp160,000 at Kopernik’s Tech Kiosk, Jl. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud, tel. 0361-977-233; hours 9 am - 5 pm Monday-Friday. *Choose the best guidebook. The quickest and easiest way to evaluate a guidebook is to look up a small to medium-sized location and check out the thoroughness of the coverage and the quality of the writing. Evaluating the coverage of a big city takes too long. Does the writer have the voice that you want to travel with? Highlights of an area or city should be summarized in the introduction of each geographic section so you have a hit list on hand in planning your trip. A guidebook’s index is super-important. It should be a multi-entry place name index so that if your special interest is coffee, ancient monuments or climbing volcanos you’re able to ¿nd crossreferences to those topics in every country or region you travel through. At a ¿rst-class bookseller like Periplus or Ganesha, put together a customized library on your destination. Don’t neglect earlier narratives of the country you’re going to visit; it’s a brand new adventure to read about someone else’s trials and tribulations in the same spot, even if the events happened hundreds of years ago. *Green your kitchen! Kitchens produce extreme temperatures, so buy an energy ef¿cient fridge and/or freezer. Plastics leach chemicals, so exchange your frequently replaced plastic containers with more durable stainless steel vessels. Buy durable top-quality pots and pans so that they don’t have to throw them away as often. Premium-priced pans with non-stick coatings last longer uncoated pans. The best Balinese cooking pans and utensils are steel. Clean your wok (wajan), pot (panci) or skillet or frying pan (pengorengan) with hot water, then dry it immediately to prevent rust. Unless you like soapytasting food, don’t use soap. Once the surface feels smooth, dry the wok by placing it back on the heat and allowing the water to completely evaporate. Turn off the heat and spread a teaspoon of cooking oil around with a paper towel to remove any residue and create a natural non-stick surface. Allow the wok to cool before storing. If you burn something, pour coarse sea salt over it and scrub it with a dish brush. If your pan is already rusted, scrub it with steel wool. In Bali’s traditional markets you’ll ¿nd very inexpensive non-electric kitchen appliances: graters, knives, woks, bamboo steamer baskets, grinding stone mortar and pestle (cobek and anak cobek), wooden spoons and spatulas.

*Back to school. In Bali, there are a wide variety of preschools, neighborhood kindergartens (taman kanak-kanak or TK) as well as international standard preschools. To ¿nd the one most appropriate for your child, ¿rst talk to friends and colleagues and ask them what schools they recommend. Visit at least three preschools to meet the principal and teachers and assess the environment. Computers and Àashy toys don’t make a school; what matters most is your child’s experience. How long has the school been operating? How much experience do members of the teaching staff have? What is the child-to-teacher ratio? How clean are the bathrooms and cooking areas? Where are diapers changed? How good are the school’s ¿re and building safety standards? Do the kids appear well occupied, healthy and well cared for? Are the toys accessible, safe and appropriate for their ages? Is the school van safe? *ATM scam. ATMs generally offer more competitive fees and charges than moneychangers, but don’t fall for the latest modus operandi thieves use to capture your ATM. They pound on the door of the ATM booth while you’re withdrawing money inside so that you become distracted and confused and leave your card inside the ATM machine. When you return, the card will be gone and the perpetrators will have started to make charges on the card. Another problem on Bali is card

skimmers, so only use ATMs in glass booths or inside minimarkets where staff monitors who comes and goes. Use only reputable ATMs so that if you lose your card you’ll be able to call your bank and cancel your ATM card immediately. Also never store money that you’ve just withdrawn from an ATM in the compartment under your motorcycle seat; groups of 3-4 thieves stake out ATM machines, trail potential Bule victims, wait for them to walk away and then pry open the seat to steal your money. *Canned tuna has been cited by Consumer Reports as a common source of mercury in our diet. *Among women, cigarette use correlates with level of education; smoking is most prevalent among women without high school diplomas and the very lowest for women with college degrees. *Have your children help prepare meals; if they’ve made it themselves, they’re more likely to eat it. Even a toddler can add cherry tomatoes, olives or grapes to a salad bowl. *Put your smartphone in airplane mode to save battery life and to charge faster. *Sugar produces at least three symptoms of substance abuse and dependence: craving, tolerance and withdrawal; eating too much sugar can lead to fatty liver disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity and kidney disease. *Plastic containers shouldn’t be put in microwaves as it accelerates the leaching of chemicals into food and drink; use Pyrex or glass containers instead. *Cooking spray is not called for on non-stick pans because the oil builds up and causes food to stick; use non-stick pans on low heat without spray. *Blue Bird taxis are the safest to use in Bali late at night. *If you’re in your 40s, don’t buy those too-small jeans on the expectation that you’ll soon lose weight. *Kalau hendak menyimpan uang, haruslah membelanjakan uang. “If you want to save money, you have to spend money wisely.” *For information relating to customs (Beacukai), excise duties and procedures, go to www.beacukai.go.id, call tel. 1500225 (WIB 8 am-4 pm) or email questions to info@customs.go.id. It’s been our experience that staff is professional, knowledgeable and polite. *If you’re staying at a hotel and forgot your wall smartphone charger, charge your device through the USB behind the TV. *There are many positive health bene¿ts in probiotic-rich fermented foods such as kimchi, yogurt and sauerkraut. “Money doesn’t talk, it swears.” Bob Dylan. *You Tube makes life easier! Videos clips and educational videos in both English and Indonesian on how to ¿nd cheap hotels and restaurants in Bali, moneysaving fashion and shopping tips, practical tips on expat living, gardening and cooking, kitchen demonstrations, finding an affordable apartment, how to cook Indonesian specialities, help forums for problem solving, as well as non-Indonesian-related content like “50 things you can do with Vaseline,” DIY room décor, etc. You Tube has a new special app for Children that provides a ¿ltered, safer and easier way for kids to watch YouTube videos. Though the channel is a mix of product endorsements and entertainment, there are lots of free animated and full-length movies: Leo the Lion, Jungle boy, A Christmas Wish, DreamWorks TV, Thomas the Tank Engine, National Geographic, Reading Rainbow; simple Disney songs; how to build a model volcano, counting games, math tutorials, the World of Trains and the latest episodes of Sesame Street. Kids are able to browse channels and playlists in four categories: Shows, Music, Learning and Explore. Use the ¿lters pull down to get the very latest upload date and use options like built-in timer, sound and search settings to help control the experience for both parent and child.

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

Jakarta: Portraits of a Capital 1950–1980 by Scott Merrillees Jakarta Portraits of a Capital 1950-1980 surveys the evolution of Jakarta during the ¿rst three decades after Indonesian independence had been achieved in 1949. Within its pages you are able to see what the capital looked like in the fairly recent past and understand how its development shaped what it has become today. The book only explores the growth of Jakarta’s physical landscape between 1950 and 1980 when the city became the capital of Indonesia after national sovereignty had finally been recognized by the Netherlands. This 30-year period gave Jakarta many of its most famous and beloved landmarks - the National Monument (MONAS), Gelora Bung Karno sports stadium, the massive Istiqlal Mosque, the venerable Hotel Indonesia, the Semanggi cloverleaf, Sarinah Department Store, Bank Indonesia headquarters, the main thoroughfares Jl. Thamrin and Jl. Jendral Sudirman, and other enormous changes which took place against a backdrop of a 342% explosion in population from 1,432,085 in 1950 to 6,480,654 in 1980. Although the book’s 187 postcards and half a dozen accompanying original period maps (all from the author’s own collection) record relatively recent history, the images show a city that is starkly different from what it is today. After an Introduction, which sets the different eras in their historical contexts, the meatier pictorial section takes up approximately four-¿fths of the book. Jakarta Portraits opens with postcards from the 1950s, some of the most interesting because you can still (barely) make out contemporary features. At the time, Jakarta’s boundaries only extended as far south as Tanah Abang. Beyond was largely countryside. During this decade, the Dutch still controlled important sectors of the e c o n o m y. W h e n I n d o n e s i a ¿nally asserted its full economic autonomy in December 1957, the new country took over Dutch assets and Dutch citizens were expelled. Very few buildings were completed in the 1950s. Today, Kebayoran Baru is one of Jakarta’s most prestigious, expensive and centrally located suburbs, but then it was a treeless, quiet satellite city in the distant southern outskirts with little water, no doctors, dentists, public buses or cinemas. Kemayoran Airport, ¿rst opened in 1940, was surrounded by largely empty land and new housing developments in Sunter to the east and Krukut to the west. The airport was in use as the sole domestic and international airport until 1985 when Soekarno-Hatta International was opened. I loved the postcard scenes of city life that stand out in such startling contrast to the grinding noisy traf¿c congestion of Jakarta in the 21st Century. Streets were full of cyclists, pushcarts, horse drawn carriages and old big-grilled Chevrolet trucks. Gentle traffic runs along beautiful tree-lined boulevards that almost nobody now would recognize as being Jl. Gajah Made and Jl. Hayam Wuruk. In use from the 1930s to the 1990s, becak were everywhere. One postcard shows a row of drivers asleep in their pedicabs in front of city hall. A boy swims in a canal where long lines of women wash clothes – impossible scenes in today’s Jakarta. Another postcard shows a tranquil kampung within the city limits way before such scenes were obliterated by vast urban sprawl. It’s dif¿cult to believe that from the late 19th C. to until the 1970s, the beaches of Tanjung Priok port and its exclusive idyllic Yacht Club, and as far along the coast as Cilincing and Sindang Laut, were popular seaside recreational areas for all social classes, clean enough for ocean swimming, family picnics and relaxing strolls. Then came the expansion of the container terminal and subsequent pollution of the north coast. The development of Ancol from the 1960s marked the beginning of the end for Cilincing. By the late 1990s, it had become a garbage-strewn slum.

In the feverish building activity from 1960-1965, covered in the second chapter, Sukarno by the sheer force of his personality and passion created a new vision of Jakarta in which the city’s landscape dramatically changed. The building of the Gelora Bung Karno sports complex and the Semanggi cloverleaf were rushed so that they could be completed in time for the Asian Games IV in 1962. These modern icons ¿lled the citizenry of the city and country with great pride. Un¿nished steel and concrete of¿ce towers in postcards published in the second half of the 1960s illustrate the severe economic malaise that had begun to set in. During these traumatic and tumultuous times, the Istiqlal mosque took 17 years and Hotel Borobudur took 11 years to ¿nish. Postcards rarely show political violence, but several in the book depict a demonstration in front of Hotel Indonesia and the burning of the British Embassy by a mob in September 1963 as part of Sukarno’s undeclared war against Malaysia during his strident anti-colonial Konfrontasi campaign.

Scott Merrillees has spent literally thousands of hours over the past 22 years hard slogging around the city exploring its streets, researching its history, interviewing experts and eyewitnesses and collecting anything apropos that isn’t nailed down - photographs, postcards, maps of Jakarta and myriad other sorts of documentation. This, his latest coffee table picture book, is actually a continuation of his Batavia in Nineteenth Century Photographs, covering Jakarta from the late 1850s to the mid-1890s, and Greetings from Jakarta: Postcards of a Capital 1900-1950, which explores the city in the ¿rst half of the 20th C., the ¿nal years of the colonial era. With these three books, he has recreated Jakarta as it was from the middle of the 19th C. – when the earliest photographs of the city were taken – up until 1980. The writer’s acute observations enable the readers to notice details that they would’ve otherwise missed, bringing the scenes more to life. Merrillees points out what building is being photographed, the vantage point of the photographer, distant industrial features like elevated RR bridges, which buildings in the picture still survive, cross-references to the same site on another postcard on another page, where the Àow of traf¿c is heading, what street a bus is entering or what direction a becak driver is pedaling. He brings to your attention to people sitting on roofs, a sleeping boy perched precariously on a streetcar coupling, what is written on barely legible signs (including anti-Dutch graf¿ti), what was playing at a cinema, what goods are selling in a market, speculates on what bankrupted a business and what large crowds are gawking at. A magnifying glass enables the reader to burrow down through the clutter deep into each scene.

DVD Woman in Gold When laws are passed in Austria, which restores art that was plundered by the Nazis to their rightful owners, Maria Altman, an Austrian Jew who escaped from Vienna during the Nazi occupation, and is now living in California, reluctantly returns to her homeland to regain what is rightfully hers. Maria takes her claim to an Austrian tribune; however, the Austrian government will not give up Maria’s famous and very valuable painting. Later, Maria’s American lawyer finds a loophole, and her claim is pursued in the American courts. Occasionally, this movie does ‘flashback’ to tell a predictable story about the persecution of a Jewish family during WW11, but, the modern-day courtroom drama, and, the shenanigans of the Austrian government, make for fascinating viewing. Helen Mirren gives another one of her knockout performances, with excellent support from Ryan Reynolds. Poltergeist* Unbeknown to them, a family move into a new house which has been built over an abandoned cemetery. Soon, nasty things start occurring in the house, culminating with a young girl being abducted by evil spirits. This movie is a re-make of Tobe Hooper’s classic 1982 horror story, from a script by Steven Spielberg. The re-make sticks pretty closely to Spielberg’s script, allowing for slight changes to make it more contemporary. What is noteworthy are the new up-to-date special effects that are sure to raise the hackles on anybody.

A Little Chaos As the construction of the Palace of Versailles gets underway, a talented female landscape gardener is appointed to create an outdoor ballroom in a secluded part of the gardens. The gardener is keen to bring innovative ideas into her design, but, she must cope with the finicky King Louis XIV, and the intrigues of his court. English actor Alan Rickman directs this movie, and he does so with a lot of respect for the subject-matter and the period. Rickman makes an appealing historical costume drama. Kate Winslet is also appealing as the gardener. Alan Rickman gives himself a nice juicy role as King Louis. Jackie & Ryan While busking in the streets of a small American town, a travelling musician meets a former folksinger, who is at a crucial stage of her marriage. A love affair quickly develops between them, but, her nasty divorce could be a big impediment. So much for the plot. What is charming about this movie are the many folksongs written by Ami Canaan Mann, who also does a good job directing the film. Katherine Heigl and Ben Barnes both sing the songs well. Mad Max, Fury Road* The original 3 ‘Mad Max’ movies were made in 1979, 1981 and 1985. They were super-mega hits, and, their message about a disintegrated post-nuclear holocaust society seemed to say something to the audiences of the time. This sequel comes 30 years too late. The film brings together the themes already established in the previous movies, but, its visual style now appears out-of-date. The movie is a nostalgic trip back to the 80s, but, it’s just one long car chase. After a while, the car crashes and explosions become tiresome. Still, if you are not familiar with the sequel’s history you will think it is awesome.

numbers and vivacious actresses”. But, I would prefer to say that squeezed in between the tedious plot of this sequel, and the lame attempts at comedy, are to be found some under-produced and badly performed musical mashes. Furthermore, ‘Fat Girl’ Australian actress Rebel Wilson plays a typically obnoxious girl-next-door. She is loud, rude, and aggressive. In fact, she is not in the slightest bit funny or amusing at all. Danny Collins Al Pacino stars, as an aging Pop Star, who, after 40 years, receives an undelivered letter from John Lennon and Yoko Ono. In the letter, John and Yoko give the singer some advice on how to handle his promising career. This gets Al thinking, and he wonders how this advice would have affected him if he had received the letter when it was intended. Al goes into a deep introspective phase, and, he tries to re-establish a relationship with his long estranged son. The son is not all that interested in his father, and what he is offering. Thirty years ago Al Pacino was a leading actor, now, he is a ham.

The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel Another movie which we could have done without. The first Marigold Hotel was an entertaining look at English pensioners living in a rundown hotel in India. This time, the English pensioners are still there, but, their lives have become boring and full of indecision. However, the major plotline concerns an American guest who is mistaken for a hotel inspector. This is all very predictable. Meanwhile, director John Madden tries to brighten things up by inserting a couple of ‘Bollywood’ style musical production numbers. This just cheapens the whole affair, and makes the movie appear even more tatty. Pitch Perfect 2 Writing about this sequel, a Jakarta film critic called it “a bright and witty comedy. Full of sparkling musical

Fashion MUSIC MATTERS By Toby Greetings live music fans and welcome to the mid-summer edition of Music Matters, your definitive music guide in Bali. This issue we step back in time and take a trip down musical memory lane at the Cavern bar, but before that I have a review of the fabled Casablanca in Sanur.

like Jagga’ The music was faultless from classics like Honky Tonk Woman, Start Me Up, and Paint It Black to more obscure numbers like Angie, and Wild Horses. The band were incredibly tight and all of them were exceptionally talented musicians, halfway through the second set the lead singer introduced the band and the crowd were treated to a really top end bass solo, and also a pretty good drum fill.

There may be an ash cloud on the horizon but it has not stopped the fun in Bali, and this last Friday and Saturday evening was a very special kind of blur for me, after making good with some old friends at Linga Longa bar in Sanur (itself an excellent live music venue) we all headed down to Casablanca bar on the main drag in the centre of town. I have reviewed bands here before, maybe a year or so ago, but my how things have changed. It is evident that the guys in charge of the bar have gone all out to make it a truly exceptional venue for live music in Sanur; and believe me when I say this is now the go-to place for live music! I do not make that statement lightly, but what I saw in the last two days has convinced me that this is the case.

The guitarist was already kicking out solos like a man possessed, and the whole band were really very authentic in ‘being the Stones’. They finished on one of the best and original renditions of Satisfaction I have ever heard anywhere, crazy vocals and never ending licks, and riffs, played the song out for well over ten minutes; before they finally ended with a crescendo and riotous applause. The Ripper were No expense has been spared; sensational and one of the best tribute bands I have seen. the bands play on a full stage with set lighting, a great PA If I had one tiny criticism it would be for the singer to pay a system and even have their bit more attention to the clarity of the lyrics, and the diction name in lights on a large TV of the English words; but as I said this is a small thing, but behind them as they are if it was perfect then they themselves would be the same. A playing. The events all billed great gig and an epic band I would give The Ripper an 8.5 under the title ‘Stage One’ out of ten, great fun. For more info on The Ripper check out are probably the best put their Face book page, and for listings of bands playing at together, and definitely the Casablanca go to www.casablancasanur.com. best produced nights anywhere on Bali. It is evident Once upon a time in t h a t t h e m a n a g e r a n d Liverpool four likely lads promotion team have spent a bit of money here and it has took the world by storm definitely paid off, the place was jumping, maybe 200 people and became one of the packed into every available seat, with maybe another 50 most influential bands of standing at the bar or leaning on remaining wall space! all time. I am of course talking about the Beatles. Now this is technically not a live music venue in the true sense of the The drinks were a good price and the staff was also very word, yet it actually is one of the world’s best known venues. attentive and well organized, and they needed to be as with that many people in a bar. The reason they were there soon OK I will stop talking in riddles and get to the point, the became clear as the Friday band, ABOE a blues and rock other day I was introduced to the Cavern bar in Sanur, this four piece, took to the stage. ABOE were a classic outfit, incredible venue is the complete replica of the Cavern in and played some toe tapping blues numbers like Howling Liverpool right down to its dimensions. The bar is more a Wolf, John Lee Hooker, and bluesy covers of pop songs. museum than a place to have a drink and has what must be the largest collection of Beatles memorabilia outside of the I did not stay long UK. The Cavern has a stage at one end with wax works of e n o u g h t o g i v e the fab four playing live, you can order a Yellow Submarine review; however cocktail, and even sit on the original table where the band from what I saw signed their first recording contract! The Cavern bar also they were very tight houses the only remaining gold disk of the Imagine single, and did a cracking every other copy was apparently owned by Michael Jackson. job playing to the capacity crowd! I loved visiting this shrine to music, and I highly recommend After witnessing my anyone who is heading to Sanur to check it out it is truly first ‘Stage One’ mind blowing. event at Casablanca I was very impressed so this Saturday I went down again to check out a Rolling Stones tribute band Ok folks that’s all for this issue until next time keep it live called ‘The Ripper’. The band was as the name suggests and make it matter. ripping and very loud. We initially had a table at the front but with the killer PA system, it was just impossible to talk. The band sells themselves on not just performing Rolling If you enjoyed this article or have any questions, concerns, or Stones hits, but actually providing the full experience, and if indeed you are the illusive Chris Curtis please don’t hesitate to drop me a line, here to the Bali Advertiser, or alternatively on Saturday they did exactly that.

REFLEXOLOGY LISTEN TO YOUR FEET ! Massaging ones feet can be heavenly or it can be a painful experience! Regular massage is a lovely feeling and will revitalize tired feet, whereas a session of ReĂ€exology is a very different kind of treatment Âą that is direct massage / acupressure to the many pressure points on ones feet. As most know, each part of the foot is supposed to represent an internal organ within the body with the beneÂżts from such a session as improved circulation, detoxiÂżcation, reduced tension and by stimulating nerve endings that the body has the ability to heal. There are some very positive results that one can experience but it’s imperative to Âżnd the best trained therapist"! Well , can now recommend one for you.

Restaurant Review

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

The Survivor! Back in the early 1980’s, when anyone wanted a ‘foreign’ meal in Bali, they most often went to Kuta! In more recent years, Kuta has become more of a sanctuary for the young at heart and the local tourist element. Since the Kuta Tragedi, businesses in the Poppies Lanes area have suffered greatly. Many did not make the transition, but Un’s, Poppies, Kori and that old original T.J.’s, have soldiered on! TJ’s is the original survivor! In recent years there has been almost an invasion of Mexican restaurants in Bali, a few of the other early ones have disappeared and the many new ones fight for custom but sometimes the original of anything remains the best! With the constant change in Bali’s restaurants, any establishment able to weather the storm for more than 20 years must be doing something right. 31 years, well that is icon status! Particularly when their location area has changed so much! What most of the world knows as Mexican food is really an American creation. Some call it Cal-Mex, others Tex-Mex. I am sure there is a difference, just like there must be between Wendy’s and McDonalds, but who cares? For all its faults, Americanised Mexican is easy to eat, as long as you love cheese? I do, so I have been guilty of devouring many tacos, enchilladas, fajitas, nachos and the like, in many different countries of the world. Strangely enough the classiest ‘pure’ Mexican meals I have ever enjoyed were on my many visits to La Cucaracha [the cockroach] in London’s theatre district. T.J.’s is a pleasant water-garden setting in Poppies I, not far from Jln. Legian. Closed off from the bustling surrounds, it really is an oasis. A perfect place to switch off from your problems of the day, relax at their bar with one of their famous Margarita’s, and contemplate the menu of cheese fixes! How can you begin this style of Mexican without a Guacamole Dip? Throw in a plate of Nachos [crisp tortilla chips with refried beans, mild green chillies and that usual covering of melted cheese], and even a serve of Buffalo Wings [spicy chicken wings with a blue cheese dip] and you have the perfect starting point. Pick at them whilst you sip your drink, and peruse the rest of the menu. You already know it is going to be a long night? If you prefer a bit of a variety, there are always Taquitos [deep-fried corn tortillas stuffed with shredded beef], Flautas [flour tortillas rolled with spicy chicken and cheese, then deep-fried] or Quesadilla [soft flour tortillas filled with chilli con queso and cooked on a dry griddle]. The Baked Potatoes are stuffed with a mixture of bacon, onion, chives and cheese, and even the Burgers come with a chilli sauce! The ever-popular Tacos are excellent at T.J.’s, they do not even crumble in your hands like most others!

Here you can choose from chicken, beef or healthy beans as your filling in the crisp U-shaped corn tortilla, together with the usual lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, sour cream and that special sauce. Served with Mexican rice, and refried beans, the secret is to eat them without sending shattered shards everywhere! Definitely an art that takes much practice! Enchilladas are soft flour tortillas, stuffed with beef, chicken or beans, together with tomato, onion, cheese and a tangy sauce. Again with Mexican rice and refried beans. Fajitas are strips of marinated beef or juicy pieces of chicken breast [pictured], grilled with green and red peppers and onions. Roll your own soft tortillas and add sour cream, chopped tomato and onions, together with dollops of that avocado guacamole. A big meal for when you are very hungry! For two Tortillas with an International flavour; an Indian Chicken Keema [minced chicken, aubergine and ground cashews simmered in Indian spices, wrapped in a tortilla, and served with mango chutney] or Prawns in a Red Thai Curry [combined with onion and coriander, Thai spices and coconut milk, served in a tortilla with chilli sauce and pickled condiments]. Both are very unusual, filling, and full of flavour that packs a punch! My type of food! A recent addition to the menu at TJ’s is their Soft Flour Tacos. Choose your filling; Ahi Tuna, just seared, combined with mango chutney, pickled onion and sour cream, Chorizo Meat Loaf with guacamole or deep-fried Crispy Shrimp. Seafood variations include Camarones Escorpionadas, prawns in a Creole style sauce with guacamole, a salsa and sour cream, all on a bed of savoury rice, or a Pescado Vera Cruz, fillet of fish with a tomato salsa, sweet corn, beans and steamed potatoes.

TJ’s does breakfast! Whilst this Kuta icon is well known as the best Mexican in town, very few also realize that it opens its doors early every morning to present a variety of breakfasts, as well. Needless to say their Mexican Breakfasts are the most popular. Huevos Rancheros are oven-baked eggs on a cornmeal base with refried beans and a mild [early morning after all] tomato salsa, topped with melted cheese of course. Tostadas de Huevos are scrambled egg on a crisp corn tortilla with bacon, refried beans, cheese, sour cream and salsa. For Non-Mexicans there are eggs with bacon, tomato and hash browns, toast juice and coffee. A hearty breakfast is always a good way to wake up in the morning. A reasonably priced wine list and friendly service make a pleasant sojourn. And TJ’s has a secret! Not really Mexican cuisine but their Baby Back Ribs are the very best I have ever had….they do not boil them first, as most others do, but gently steam them [to get rid of the excess fat] before baking them in the oven, the result, tender but with all the taste retained! Worth a visit just for the ribs! It may not be gourmet fare, but it is still great for a change, whenever you are in the mood for a simple feast, with a bit of spice! And whilst you are there buy some jars of TJ’s Salsas and a packet of fresh Tacos to take away [available on the table just inside the front door], and re-live the experience at home.

Update Uma Cucina does a Sunday Brunch. Well it is more of a long relaxed lunch, but what is wrong with that? Perfect for a lazy Sunday. As the name suggests the restaurant offers Italian cuisine at Sanginggan’s Uma Hotel, half way between Ubud and Sayan. The restaurant is road-side with its own parking area. A total of 24 dishes, small plates, are available. If you have the time, between 11.30 and 3.30, you can sample them all. Most of them are best shared between 2 or even 3 diners. They are listed in groups. First is Raw and Cured [the Yellow Fin Crudo [pictured] with shaved fennel, small slices of green olives, drizzled lemon and a mild chilli dressing, is excellent!]. Next on the list is their Antipasto, a great crab Frittata with ricotta, zucchini and mint but the Jumbo Octopus, with white beans, pickled onions and black olive dressing, is exceptional. Large chunks of those tentacles, amazingly tender. Pasta can be Pappardelle, with meat balls [pork, organically raised], roasted tomato and white wine, Spaghettini arrives with pancetta, green peas, thyme, parmesan and a ‘just fried’ organic egg on top. Mini Pizzas include Prosciutto di Parma that has caramelized onions and an organic egg added, pure vegetarian is the Eggplant Parmigiana. From The Grill can be Seafood [mixed]. Chicken [small bird, roasted with pancetta, radicchio and a sage salsa verde], Fish [snapper, a large perfectly cooked slab sitting on baby potatoes, a sauce of olives, capers and dill] or Beef [Sliders, an Aussie beef patty with grilled vegetables, mozzarella and pesto]. Finish with ‘Something Sweet’, a classic Semifreddo [white chocolate with ginger, coffee poached pear and crushed walnuts. Perhaps you may prefer a simple Granita [watermelon and crushed strawberries], Lemon Tart [candied lemon and baby mint] or Mini Gelato. All this for Rp.399,000++ p.p., or add a free flow wine package that includes wines by the glass, cocktails, mocktails, etc. for the same amount again. Re-inventing the Long Lunch, no need for an evening dinner to follow this! Fin Crudo.

Cocoon, Jln. Double Six at Blue Ocean Beach is 5 years old, and is celebrating that feat with a Blue Party, this Friday July 24. it includes a 3 course feast, with a choice of dishes for Rp. 500,000, which includes the entrance fee to the big party. Select your entrée from; Zucchini Flower Tempura with goat cheese and apple slaw, Saku Tuna with wakame, ginger and soy, Smoked Salmon with avocado salsa, mini brioche toasts and dill salad, Sesame Crusted Tiger Prawns with spiced gazpacho, Duck Rillettes with beetroot jam, or Angus Beef Tartare. Mains are a choice of Barramundi wrapped in prosciutto. Tuna salsa verde, Salmon with leeks and asparagus, Peppered Sirloin with lobster potato mash, Garlic & Rosemary Lamb Cutlets or Pumpkin and Goats Cheese Risotto. Dessert is Basil Panna Cotta, poached tamarillo, almond biscotti, Passion Fruit Semifreddo, almond crumble and berry compote or Apple Tart, ice cream and butterscotch. Cocoon parties are usually booked out well in advance so do not wait to make any longer to make a reservation [731.266]. MamaSan is on the move! Not physically from its popular Jln Kerobokan site, where it has been full every day since opening, but across Asia. First it was in Hong Kong and now another franchise has opened in Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur, at Suria KLCC, central KL. It is yet another showcase for the incredible cooking talents of Will Meyrick. We can call Will an Aussie, even though he is a Scot, as his kitchen talent was developed there [as well as his love of Thai cuisine] at Longrain and Billy Liks in Sydney. Since arriving in Bali 10 years ago his exploration of other basic Asian cuisines is legendry, earning him the title of the ‘Street Food Chef’ The food at MamaSan combines many Asian cuisines with small and large servings of food all with original taste, never watered down for the ignorant few. The new, and already successful, Hajun Local in Ubud whilst not a MamSan does offer very similar food, or as the Thais would say ‘same same but different!’ Which city of Asia will be the lucky one to play host to the next MamaSan. I look forward to seeing one in Bangkok one day, where they would queue on the street for a table, and Will could become the 2nd chef from Oz to make it in Bangkok with Thai food.

Warung Pojok is just that, a warung simple and plain. Yet it still has its charm and history like so many other small places in the Amed area. It is found at the northern end of the Lipah Beach strip where most tourists congregate. Operated by Gede and his wife it is a plain yet homely structure amongst the trees, up a short gang directly in front of Restaurant Gede where the young Gede [no relation] was the chef back when it was the most popular restaurant in the area, and where he also fell in love with and married the waitress. Subsequently he has been the chef at Anda Amed for a number of years before now going it alone. To say the food is simple would be an understatement, Ayam Lalapan, leg and breast of a village chicken, deep fried crisp, mounds of vegetarian lawar and rice to accompany, is their most popular dish. The fare is cheap enough that the local fishermen and beach boys are regular customers as well as the more adventurous tourists, those wishing to share local experiences. Red Bean is another Chinese restaurant from Jakarta. One of a chain it is new, clean and modern on Jln. Cok Agung Tresna, on the Renon food loop. With more than 20 outlets operating in and around Jakarta this is their first attempt to follow their Java success in Bali. As usual with Chinese restaurants it has an enormous menu, mostly of Cantonese origin. Beef can be in strips, crumbed, in a tangy sauce, stir-fried with black pepper or minced with green beans. Chicken can be stir-fried with Kung Pao, crumbed and deep-fried with sweet and sour, lemon or chilli sauces or steamed with ginger. The wings are glazed with caramel. The fish can be grouper, snapper, dory or carp, cooked every which way! Prawns can be rolls [a great group starter as is the Prawn Toast], fried with chilli and salt, salted egg or mayonnaise or stir-fried with curry leaves. This group is from Java so no pork products [why when in Bali I will never understand, a Chinese restaurant without pork products is only, at best, half a restaurant!] but they do have alternatives that are unlikely to prove very popular with the local clientele, frogs and eel. The usual rice and noodle dishes are on offer and that Chinese breakfast Congee known here as Bubur or just porridge. Plenty of parking at the front and reasonable prices for the area should keep the guests coming!

CasCades, the fine dining restaurant at The Viceroy, Nagi village, Ubud, has recently been hosting some of the great chefs of the world to display their skills for the local foodies. The next such evening is on Saturday, August 1, with Benoite Dewitte, master chef from Belgium, whose career began at La Bastide de Moustiers in France, followed by stints at 2 star Michelin restaurants Chez Bru, Ousteau de Beaumaniere and Moulin de Loumarin before opening his own restaurant with his brother, Benoit & Bernard Dewitte, near Ghent, Belgium. Early reservation is essential.

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS AIR OF CELEBRATION This is one of the prettiest times of the year in Bali, when every road is dressed up, as if a special guest is expected to drive up in a cavalcade at any moment. The elegant decorations or penjor - tall, hooked bamboo poles ornamented with coconut leaves - are actually offerings to the Gods, to celebrate the Hindu holy days of Galungan and Kuningan. Created according to centuries of tradition and placed outside every Hindu compound or business, penjor may come in many shapes and sizes, but must include certain speci¿c elements. The ¿rst of our dear readers to write in to baubudnews@ gmail.com, correctly listing four of those elements, together with why each element is included, will go in the draw to win a delicious lunch for two at an Ubud restaurant. PADANG LOCAL STYLE I’m hearing rumours of a rival for my favourite nasi padang. Apparently Bagindo, the padang warung just north from the statue at Peliatan, is something extra special. This is from a local who is also keen to advise newcomers on the best way to eat Padang food properly. Firstly, she observes, new players get mesmerized by the wide and delicious array of platters. Don’t be tempted to buy a bit of everything, she says, because padang food is designed to accompany rice, not replace it, and each side dish contains a very intense combination of spices for that reason. Similarly, say yes to the “gravy” which, absorbed into your white rice, is an essential part of the local taste. I’m off island at the mo’, but as soon as I’m home I’ll check it out, and also go back to the one on Jl Raya Ubud next to the Bali Buda store. If I didn’t already love their beef rendang and the fresh crunchy green beans, I’d be a regular customer just to get a welcome “Selamat Malam” (good evening) every time I pop by for lunch – yes lunch -from the zany guy behind the till, and to check up on the warung’s latest mural by community artist AleJandro. FOOD AS MEDICINE RETREAT Einstein observed that to repeat the same thing over a n d o v e r, e x p e c t i n g a different outcome, was the de¿nition of insanity. So why do many of us eat without thought or care, yet hope that our health will improve and our excess weight drop away? Renowned Food as Medicine author, Dr. Liana Nenacheva, is passionate about “improving our relationship with food”, so that each delicious mouthful makes a person more healthy. With over 30 years of experience as an MD, holistic doctor, and nutrition specialist, Dr. Liana combines her medical knowledge with her love of home cooking. Now based in Ubud, she holds regular half-day workshops and occasional three, ¿ve and ten day ‘Food as Medicine’ retreats, where you’ll come to realise that – once you understand the energetic and nutritional property of different kinds of grains, fruits and vegetables - those kitchen ingredients can become your medicine cabinet. In the half-day class, you will learn how to prepare different delicious recipes, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, and non-vegetarian dishes. Samplings and lunch are included. Classes at Taksu Spa on Jl Gautama South. E: liana.nenacheva@gmail.com; M: +62 878 6120 2617; W:www.wholelifedetox.com.

There are lots of steps down to the falls - pause and take a few snaps on the way - and there’s a pleasant spot at the top for the not so nimble to wait and watch. DOGS POISONED ON STREET Please warn friends with dogs – even on leads – to be careful when walking their pets on Ubud streets at the moment. Recently, two beautiful animals ate dog poison placed in offerings in a little lane off Jl Mertanadi.

C/U/I-01 Oct. 14

The governor of Bali is concerned about recent rabies attacks and has recommended strong measures for reducing the stray dog populations across the island. Unfortunately, some citizens seem to have taken this too far, putting poison in public places, such as on the many Hindu offerings along our streets, where passing animals will ingest it. So when exercising dogs, don’t let them nibble at anything along the way. Contact the BAWA of¿ce at Jl Monkey Forest, 100, or email info@balianimalwelfare.com: for more information, to report any speci¿c danger areas, or to enquire about treatment for poisoned animals. To report urgent cases: call 081 138 9004 (24/7), or 081 2384 0133. CRASH LINGO Hubud, Ubud’s community and co-working space on Jl. Monkey Forest, has teamed up with a local language school to deliver weekly crash courses on Indonesian language and culture. The three-hour course runs from 9:30-12:30 on Saturday mornings; the cost of one class plus a language guide booklet is only 250,000rp. The ¿rst 3 classes have gone well, with several of the students now committing to a regular weekly beginners class.

Words…. a Step Towards a Solution An Interview with Linda Christanty by Sarita Newson Linda Christanty is an Indonesian author and journalist who is no stranger to awards, having been recognised by Indonesia’s national literary award, the Equator Literary Award (2004 and 2010), plus many more. She has written theatre scripts on conÀict, disaster and peace transformation in Aceh, performed in the World PEN Forums, and received the SEA Write Award in 2013. Sarita: Linda, can you tell us how you came to write about such a wide arena of subjects? Linda: My grandfathers … were very active in politics, wellinformed, supporting human rights. The empathy I feel for others has roots in my childhood experience: when Prime Minister of Italy Aldo Moro was kidnapped, I worried along with everyone else. My grandfather brought international issues into our household and spoke about them every day … Although I never met Aldo Moro, the memory of his death left a deep impression. The ¿rst time I met victims of the war in Cambodia I was still in primary school. Refugees washed up in their boats on the beach near our house. My mother and grandfather took them food. I went with them and saw adults, women and men, small children, in a tragic state. These experiences enhanced my feelings of concern for people who experience the impact of conÀict and war. When I grew up I went to Cambodia and interviewed people there and witnessed how the war had destroyed the country. I wrote an essay about Cambodia in my book Do not Write that We Are Terrorists. East Timor, now Timor Leste, was part of my childhood. My grandmother used to shout out “The soldiers are eating people in Timor-Timur!” when I played with my friends too long in the yard. Our house was on the main road, and the army trucks passed by. This frightened me, but it also helped me to realise what was going on in Timor Leste. As a student I joined in their ¿ght for independence; one of my best friends is from Timor Leste. When I grew up and became a writer and journalist, I visited conÀict and post-conÀict zones in many countries. I spoke with people living there, listened to their stories and wrote them down to give them a voice, so the world would know what had happened to them: they wouldn’t be forgotten. S: How do you deal with trauma in your writing? L: Writing is part of healing trauma. When I tell stories I share my dif¿cult experiences with others. We may have had the same experiences or perhaps they were different. To the reader who experienced the same, my story might be a way of building togetherness, a step towards a solution, even if we don’t actually meet. Those readers who have not had similar experiences learn the stories exist, and how they should behave. Those who are uninformed often behave badly.

S: History in Indonesia as most schools teach it is quite different from what actually happened—for example school history books omit … the mass killings that took place after 1965, and the subsequent killings. Do you feel it is important to correct this cover-up and educate young Indonesians about the truth? L: In my opinion it is very important to revise history books, not only those that tell the story of the 1965 events. Many other events have been wrongly recorded and are still used as guidelines for students in school, including material about independence and resistance to colonisation in the early 20th century. Some heroes of the independence movement are still accused of having been rebels. If revisions are not made, the next generation will believe these lies… S: Many of your activist friends were kidnapped by army, jailed, tortured, and lost their lives during 1996 … How do you deal with your memories of these friends, and the fact that the person responsible for their disappearance ran for President in last year’s elections? L: My most traumatic experience has been losing my friends who were kidnapped and have not been found until today. Seventeen years have passed since they disappeared. Efforts to ¿nd them continue, but there have been no results at all. Most of them were people who worked very closely with me. Prabowo was the leader of the Special Forces (Kopassus), one of the units involved in the kidnapping. Members of those units have stood trial and been punished, but Prabowo has not once been summoned to the court. As a leader, he is considered not to be involved, in spite of the fact that his soldiers could not possibly act alone. They were members of an elite force, with a tight system of command. But Prabowo was also not a person who could act alone. He worked for an institution, under control of the Suharto government. Until now this case is considered un¿nished. I was not surprised that Prabowo could nominate himself as a presidential candidate last year; he has never been proven guilty by law … But how can they be proven guilty and sentenced? This is very dif¿cult. Impunity still reigns.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

Do you speak “Balinesian”? Compared to parts of Indonesia where Indonesian is spoken as the first language, such as Jakarta, Balinese not only speak a more formal dialect but also one that has been influenced by the idiosyncrasies of Balinese, which is a totally different language. In Jakarta, young people use first and second pronouns in most sentences; yet, most Balinese still use the third person and their titles to talk to others and even about themselves. This makes the language softer and less direct and is perhaps a hangover from a feudal society that still very much takes caste and social status into consideration. The characteristic Balinese-isms that have crept into the Balinese take on Indonesian is what I hear spoken by my own kids who go to a local school in Bali. The most common example is the incorrect use of ‘one more’. In correct Indonesian grammar, they should say, “satu lagi”. In Balinese the expression is “buin sik” or “malih siki”, which literally means ‘more one’, and this has been transposed directly into Indonesian becoming “lagi satu”. A second example is how Balinese use double negatives. This is also taken directly from Balinese. The expression “Icang sing magae sing’e buin mani” (I’m not working tomorrow) becomes “Aku nggak kerja nggak besok”. A third is adding fillers to sentences that are not used in Indonesian or used a lot less. “Na’e” is a prime example: “Jangan gitu na’e!” (taken from Eda keto na’e!) Or to create verbs that don’t exist in Indonesian, such as “Saya lagi bergambel di Denpasar” instead of “Saya lagi main gamelan di Denpasar” which is turning the Balinese verb ‘magambel’ into a neologism: ‘bergambel’ in Indonesian. The influence from Balinese on the version of Indonesian spoken in Bali doesn’t only change the way Balinese speak Indonesian but also on non-Balinese, including foreigners. If you’ve picked up Indonesian from listening to people around you in Bali like I have, you pick up these mistakes and idiosyncrasies as part of the natural language-learning process. The downside is that you make mistakes without knowing it, the upside is that everyone else in Indonesia knows you’re “from Bali”.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE JULY 22 - AUGUST 05, 2015

The Sun and Mercury head into Leo the Sun’s sign as we start the fortnight. Leo is all about our identity, personalized expression of our desires through a creative process and where we can shine through our gifts and talents. Communication becomes flamboyant and remember too Venus is about to turn retrograde and will remain in the sign of Leo for another 10 weeks. She joins Jupiter again at the end of the fortnight and marks a second square to Saturn. The first exact was around the New Moon mid-July and with Saturn stationary direct (It has been retrograde since mid-March) at the beginning of August, the second. Whatever began in July comes to a peak at Full Moon and a crisis of consciousness occurs at the beginning of August. This is a major catalyst for the evolutionary changes that are required at this time. There’s a strong feminine push creating tension for the establishment and a movement towards a more natural law that is based on emotional understanding, sharing and caring and familial values. Mars is still in Cancer and harmonizing with both Chiron and Saturn. This could be a time of healing family rifts and bringing a more sympathetic ear to the table when it comes to monetary and business concerns. Jupiter square Saturn can portend a time of change through corporate/ business/military/government upheavals with manmade and natural disasters possible. Identification with the ego is strong and so too is the fiery unpredictable nature of Uranus as it supports the Leo Planets. FULL MOON 7 Aquarius 55 July 31, 2015 6:43 p.m.

The Full Moon at the end of the month will bring with it some clarity with regards to those key relationships in your life. There will be a significant thrust forward or at least ultimatum time when it comes to those financial issues and home or family responsibilities. You will probably be a little indignant and so too will the other parties. A bit of a Mexican stand-off could ensue as egos clash and everyone wants their share of the pie. This is the time to be yourself and to stand-up for what you believe in, with your own best interests at heart and a whole lot of self-love.

Friends, community, technology and groups are highlighted now and bring money making and personal and material acquisitions to the fore, but not without some tension. As you continue to nurture your career or vocation along you learn so much about your values. This is all going to pay off very soon when more involvement is required from you within those same community environments. The Full Moon swings into gear to balance your personal needs against those of the collective or group. As you recognize that what you claim for yourself you encourage in others and in turn bring out the individuality and awesomeness of each.

Your communication with brothers or sisters brings an emotional exchange that could reveal more about your relationship desires. The tension may also come from family members or within your living environment as you require a lot of recognition during this phase of your life. There could well be some hidden motives on your behalf or you could be unconsciously pushing others. This can work in your favor if you keep your higher aspirations in mind particularly around your work and career. By taking a broader view of things and keeping everyone in mind you will be able to both satisfy your own need for acknowledgment while recognizing the talents of others.

As you continue to elevate yourself through your caring actions you will soon see how this then moves through you in the role that you play in the World. Right now you are probably receiving quite a bit of acclaim for what you do although you may continue to harbor self-doubt or criticism. The healing then comes through your ability to love yourself and with that, have true caring, compassion and possibly empathy for others. Being gentle with yourself doesn’t come easy to you, as you are more of a driven type of person. Self-disciplined by all accounts is good, self-recrimination is totally unnecessary and only holds you back.

You will be highly stimulated on the communication front with these strong transits affecting the way you present yourself to the World and what you do within it. If you have a new marketing plan in mind this could be the time to do the work that is involved in getting it out there or at least up and running. The things that you platform now will influence the next seven years of your life and so it is probably a good idea that you think with longer term outcomes in mind. Taking a broader view of your life around the Full Moon will bring a more humanitarian slant to things.

I would think that you are feeling pretty optimistic at the moment, but there are always those slight and not so slight undercurrents of fear or pain that rise to the surface. Digging through the recesses of the psyche and emotional baggage is not always pleasant although once it is recognized and dealt with, brings more energy for you to access. There’s a round of transmutation coming that once experienced will set you on an entirely new path of discovery. The darkest moment is just before the dawn, so harness that faith, trust and optimism and carry yourself through these next two weeks with ease and grace.

Mars is pushing you to assert yourself and bring definition to your dreams and to act on them. The growth portal for you comes through your value system and there is no doubt that this is being activated as you start living your dreams. Perhaps there has been a whole other personality waiting in the wings ready to take the stage at this time of your life. New beginnings come with their birthing pains that may feel like stress and tension. The inspiration that you feel now will bring the much needed changes to your career and future plans. Release what needs to go around this Full Moon.

Your humanitarian values are highlighted as this Full Moon comes around and you soon see the next steps on this journey of transformation. You could be experiencing some confrontation with others and some of this may be very conscious and willingly undertaken. The stress that has been building now seeks release so that you can harness the potential of creative energy that will lead you into this next phase with solid ideas. There is a deep call for uniting with others to bring about recognition and acclaim for the benefit of all rather than a select few. You are becoming more and more comfortable with the uncertainty and unpredictability.

There’s a host of planets in your sign this birthday season and those with birthdays around the beginning of August will be set for a strong growth year. Those undertaking higher education or planning to travel will benefit the most and that goes for all Leo natives. Family or parental issues are still in process and emotional uncovering will continue into next fortnight. By then a whole new cycle begins and you will be ready to take flight and some of you, literally. You are developing a sense of self-esteem that supersedes that which you’ve known to date. More confidence brings new relationships and a deeper embrace of life.

The Full Moon in your sign and illuminating the need for a little self-nurture. So much is focused on the significant others at the moment, whether they be work or personal partnerships or relationships. A lot of nurture is going into your work or with work colleagues at the moment and it sets a good course for your career aspirations. Being acknowledged for whom you are and what you do may not come so easily for you as you tend to deflect acclaim to others. Your values are of a more sentimental nature and this will show clearly to others now unless they choose to feel threatened by you. Stop any competitiveness that arises around you.

BA Feature Article Styling hair, styling lives Bali-based NPO Hairdressers Without Borders is making the world a more beautiful place in more ways than one By JFK Miller Combining her professional skills as a hairstylist, her l o v e o f p e r s o n a l beauty and a simple desire to make a difference, Bali resident Esther Nieremeijer established one of the most unique nonpro¿t organisations working to improve lives in Indonesia today: Hairdressers Without Borders. It’s a simple concept: Nieremeijer and her group of hairstylist volunteers go into villages and teach locals the art of hairdressing. The program empowers trainees with new skills which they can use to gain employment in a professional salon or simply to set up a home business themselves in the village. Nieremeijer founded Hairdressers Without Borders in 2011 and the organisation held its ¿rst training course in Indonesia last year. That program, held in Lombok, certi¿cated 18 new hairdressers. Finances permitting, Nieremeijer hopes to roll out a similar program in Bali later this year. Combined with Hairdressers Without Borders’ other educational programs across Asia the organisation has trained a total of 38 people. Nieremeijer’s passion for her work, her trainees and for life generally is genuine and infectious. She got the idea for Hairdressers Without Borders when she was backpacking around Asia a few years ago. “When I started to travel around Asia with my tools in my bag I noticed what a beautiful gift I could give to the people around me with just with a simple action,” says the 37-year-old. “From there the idea of Hairdressers Without Borders was born.” Nieremeijer, who is originally from Holland, moved to Bali with her partner in 2013. She poured her more than 21 years of hairdressing experience in Holland and Belgium into the Hairdressers Without Borders’ training program. The effects of the course have been life changing for the trainees, she says. “In most of the cases our students are young and married with kids. They’re busy being a mother and wife, so there’s not a lot of space for them to create their own future and live their own dreams. When they start the course they are shy and don’t know what to expect. Our goal is to give them the opportunity to learn a new profession, to motivate and inspire them, and unlock their own energy and creativity. “I see the trainees grow every day, they start to bloom, feel more con¿dent and get more self-esteem. For the ¿rst time they can feel that they’re more than a mother or wife, they can see a future and a way to earn their own money.” A chance meeting with Els Houttave, founder of the non-profit a s s o c i a t i o n Environment Without Boundaries, at a fundraising event in Belgium led to Hairdressers Without Borders’ ¿rst program in Indonesia. Environment Without Boundaries already had a program running in the village of Orong on Lombok where it is teaching villagers effective waste management in order to reduce their ecological footprint and improve their quality of life. Houttave convinced Nieremeijer of the importance of providing education to locals as a way to get out of the poverty trap and invited her to roll out Hairdressers Without Borders’ ¿rst Indonesian program in Orong. Orong is a small local village, nestled between Lombok’s capital Mataram and the tourist resort town of Senggigi, where people live on less than US$2 a day. Not working means no money; there is no social security net. Work is intermittent and poorly paid. Carrying big buckets of water on their head or

shoulders up the mountain will fetch a villager a mere Rp1,000.

if you want to spread your knowledge.”

Hairdressers Without Borders’ program has empowered its Lombok graduates in different ways. Nur, aged 30 and a mother of three children, started offering free haircuts to children from the local school as a way to promote herself. The giveaways were her way of advertising her new home business as a professional hairdresser in the village.

Alongside the Indonesian program, the organisation also runs training workshops in Cambodia and the Philippines, and is currently looking at other locations across Asia. In Cambodia the program runs in the tourist hub of Siam Reap, and in the Philippines it runs in Smokey Mountain, a large land¿ll in Manila with a squatter community estimated at 30,000. Hairdressers Without Borders has trained kids, both young and old, who would otherwise be scavenging for stuff to sell on the street.

Sri, 25 and the mother of one son, started to work after graduating from the program at a spa in Senggigi. She became so popular with clients that they started to ask speci¿cally for her. Maria, 31, is single. Nieremeijer says she is a natural talent who took to hairdressing intuitively and found her life’s passion. She has now given up her restaurant job for better-paid employment in one of Mataram’s high-end salons. Hairdressers Without Borders’ program attracts mainly female trainees, but males are welcome to join as well. There is no mandatory age limit; the youngest students are around 15 and the oldest was 55. “You are never too old to learn,” says Nieremeijer. The program varies depending on the location and is designed to work in with locals’ lives. In Lombok, for instance, trainees were divided into two groups – morning and afternoon – since it was not possible for all of the students to join a full-day class due to family commitments. Since this was the ¿rst course for Lombok, trainees started as absolute beginners. Training covered the basics of how to hold a pair of scissors and comb, how to give a proper head massage during the washing process and a step-by-step guide on how to cut long hairstyles. Every lesson took four hours with all working materials provided to the trainees for free. Students were required to bring along only one thing: a willing model. Hairdressers Without Borders’ course generally runs for a total of four weeks with certificates awarded at each level: week one – basic, week two – intermediate, week three – advanced, while week four specialises in men’s haircuts. Nieremeijer’s group has already visited Lombok twice and awarded two batches of certi¿cates. For most trainees this is the ¿rst formal educational certi¿cate they have ever received in their life so it is a big milestone for them and paves the way for a new beginning.

Hairdressers Without Borders is officially registered as a n o n p r o f i t organisation in A n t w e r p , Belgium, and is run entirely by unpaid staff. Overheads are kept as low as possible to optimise the use of raised funds for the training programs. Nieremeijer leads a skeleton crew consisting of her father who helps with the organisation’s administrative paperwork in Belgium, Fabio from Italy who helps with all the visual aspects, including the website, logo design, photos and video materials, and Evy in Belgium who organises fundraising events. Going forward, Hairdressers Without Borders is hoping to expand its fundraising capabilities and is currently looking for people who love to organise charity events. It also has a constant need for sponsors of hairdressing tools and hair care products and currently needs more translators, especially in the Indonesian language. Nieremeijer says that every program has different hairdresser volunteers from all around the world who ¿nd her through the organisation’s website (www.hwb-nonpro¿t.org). Hairdressers Without Borders is also on Facebook (handle: Hairdressers Without Borders Non-pro¿t Organisation) and Twitter (handle: HWB Nonpro¿t). Summing up, Nieremeijer says Hairdressers Without Borders is about three things: education, beauty and happiness. It’s that last part – happiness –where the pay off lies for Nieremeijer. “It makes me so happy to share my knowledge and to help others and to dedicate myself fulltime to this. We can give to the students, but what they give back… you can feel in every class this positive vibe of sharing, sharing of passion, pleasure and fun. “For me, the educational work we do through the program has taken my profession to a completely new level. We have such a beautiful gift in our hands. Hairdressing is already so social and we make people happy and beautiful every day. But you can make a big difference by sharing your skills with people in countries where they don’t have the ability to go to school and learn a profession. The impact you leave behind is life changing.”

Nieremeijer keeps the level of training high in order to equip students for paid professional employment in the real world. Training is not simply focused on technique, but also emphasises client relations, that is, paying attention to customer requests, and matching face shape with hairstyle type in order to make suggestions to clients who don’t know exactly what they want. In Lombok, the language of instruction was Indonesian, delivered with the help of translators to explain the more technical aspects. Nieremeijer is currently working on improving her Indonesian and speci¿cally took a language course last year to enable her to better conduct the program in the local language. When the Bali course is rolled out, the tuition will be conducted in Indonesian as well. Taking its queue from international aid organisations such as Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) and Engineers Without Borders, Hairdressers Without Borders sees itself as unlimited by national boundaries and pitches in wherever it sees an opportunity to help. “There are so many ‘Without Borders’ organizations but not any ‘Hairdressers,’” says Nieremeijer. “There are no borders

Nieremeijer’s advice to anyone hesitating about getting involved with charity work is simple: “If you have the power to make someone happy in any way: Do it! The world needs more of that. Make a difference.”

As I sat in a big comfy reclining chair inside the Bioresonance office I felt curious about this mysterious machine that some of my friends and clients had raved about. The idea that we can heal and balance our body and energy system through frequency made total sense to me, because everything is energy – our thoughts, the food we eat and even the clothes we wear all hold a vibrational frequency. As I pondered about all of this Ronny Suhadi, who is a certified Bioresonance therapist, walked through the door. His friendly demeanor allowed me to relax instantly. “How did you get interested in working with the Bioresonance machine?” I asked “When my son was one and a half months he developed a severe allergy to formula. He was always vomiting. Then we put him on breast milk and he became allergic to this as well. I wanted to find a way to help him and shortly afterwards I found the Bioresonance machine in Semarang where he received his first treatment. Then I found another one in Jakarta and he got treated again. Later, I decided to study in Singapore so I could learn how to operate the Bioresonance machine. I also learned different specialty subjects such as how to treat cancer, the spine, etc, which gave me the ability to treat a wide variety of conditions.” Bioresonance therapy was invented in 1977 in Germany by Franz Morell and his son-in-law, engineer Erich Rasche. Initially they marketed it as “MORA-Therapie”, for MOrell and RAsche. How is the therapy carried out? According to www.therapeuo.asia, “There are three basic components required for each therapy, namely the therapist, BICOM device, and the one receiving the therapy. Generally during a typical therapy, BICOM device will get the input frequency information from customer via the input electrode. The therapist will use the person’s resonance information to determine the type of therapy that is needed. The person receiving the therapy will be leaning or lying on an output modulation mat, where the electromagnetic frequency from the BICOM will be fed to the person. Every person has a unique resonance and frequency information and hence the therapy program required and time required for each program will vary.” The machine can easily detect if someone has a virus such as dengue, a fungus, harmful bacteria or parasites. Patients are treated by administering vibrational frequencies which alert the body and bring it back into balance.

“The machine just sends the information and the body does self healing,” says Ronny.

People with allergies may need up to five treatments, but it depends on the severity of the allergy. Ronny uses a metallic Tensor which diagnoses the patient for many types of ailments, degenerated cells, toxins and weaknesses in particular organs. He uses different programs for conditions such as: ulcers, thyroid, gastritis, celiac, etc. Each bottle has the frequency needed for each condition which is then sent to the patient via the machine. When I asked Ronny how accurate the Bioresonance machine was, he shared a story about how he tested his wife and found an anomaly in her uterus. Then they went to the doctor to get a blood test and the doctor laughed, because he didn’t believe it was possible to detect an anomaly by a frequency test. Her blood test came back negative, but her pap smear came out positive, validating the Bioresonance test results. This motivated Ronny to get

further training with the Bioresonance Cancer program so he could treat his wife. After just six treatments his wife was cancer free. I got to experience the Basic Therapy which involved collecting my saliva so that the machine could clear all the toxins in my system. I was given some metallic balls to hold during the treatment. I could sense the energy flowing through the balls into me which was quite interesting, because it felt very similar to the sensations I have felt during energy healings. Ronny said that my frequency indicated that I was exhausted which surprised me because I didn’t feel exhausted. The Basic Therapy needs to be done at the beginning of every treatment, so that the patient can receive the frequencies for treating his or her problem. For the second part of my therapy, Ronny rated my organs one by one with the Tensor. He specifically checked for my yin/yang which is the balance between feminine and masculine. He was surprised to find that I had only two imbalances: my hormones and my lumbar. He was surprised by the results, as he explained that it is rare that people have such good results. Most people he has tested have a lot more imbalances. I attribute my good bill of health to all the energy work that I both receive and give. Ronny said that the Bioresonance machine sends out the same kinds of frequencies that one experiences during healing, but the main difference is that the machine can send out a consistent frequency which doesn’t go up and down like one may experience in an energy healing session. Thus, one can surmise that the machine may be more effective than energy work, because it has the capacity to continuously transmit a particular frequency which targets a specific illness or imbalance in the body. The therapy takes approximately one hour and is quite relaxing. At the end, I was instructed to drink a bottle of water which had been energized by the bioresonance machine. I felt very relaxed after the treatment, but also quite dehydrated, so was grateful for the water. The next day I was in a very good mood and felt that the treatment did have a positive effect on my hormones, which was great. I will definitely return for a few more sessions with Ronny, because I believe that the Bioresonance machine really works. It amazes me that many of these machines have been banned from being used or imported into the USA. Luckily for those of us in Bali that Jakarta born Ronny has made his home in Bali. His clients fly in from Jakarta, Singapore, Australia and Japan for Bioresonance therapy. For more information about Bioresonance therapy please contact Ronny at: bioresonanz.bali@gmail.com or call: (0361) 723-193.

Local News Mount Raung Eruption Causes Closure of Bali Airport Again Ash spewing from an Indonesian volcano closed Bali airport again on Sunday (13/7), just a day after it reopened. The closure caused fresh travel chaos for weary holidaymakers stranded on the holiday island.

airport on Java serving domestic routes was also closed, he said. Three other airports that were closed on Thursday, including the international airport on popular Lombok, east of Bali, are now open.

Mount Raung on the main island of Java has been erupting for weeks, and on Thursday a cloud of drifting ash forced the closure of Bali airport and four others during the peak holiday season.

Australian carriers Jetstar and Virgin said they were cancelling some flights to Bali on Sunday, while Indonesian flag carrier Garuda confirmed all its flights would be grounded until 4pm.

The airport at Bali, reopened on Saturday as the ash drifted away, allowing some passengers to board flights home and others to arrive.

The disruption comes as many Australians were heading home after spending the school break in Bali and as millions of Indonesian tourists were setting off on holiday ahead of the Muslim celebration of Eid next week.

But on Sunday morning, the transport ministry announced wind had once again pushed the cloud over the resort island and that the airport was being closed again until at least 4pm local time. “We will continue to monitor developments and decide if the closure will be extended later,” transport ministry spokesman JA Barata said. Many passengers were surprised when the new closure was announced. “Someone just said the airport was closed for at least six hours ... gotta be kidding,” tweeted one stranded tourist, Steve Dunthorne. “Standing in queue for check-in like a lemon. Staff look as confused as passengers,” he added. Indonesian passenger Dwi Anggoro had already checked in for his flight to the central Java city of Yogyakarta when the announcement was made. “Instead of going back, I’ll just stay here and wait for developments,” he told Metrotvnews.com website. Another

The closure has caused chaotic scenes at Bali’s Ngurah Rai airport, with thousands of stranded holidaymakers packing out the terminals, anxiously staring at the departure boards, and sitting and sleeping on the floor. Indonesian government volcanologist Gede Suantika said that Mount Raung continued erupting on Sunday, spewing ash up to 1,000 metres into the air. “Our observation this morning showed that the winds had pushed the ash in a south-easterly direction towards Bali again,” he added. Australia’s volcanic ash advisory centre said winds were expected to blow the ash cloud away from the airport overnight or on Monday. Authorities raised the alert status of Mount Raung, a 3,300-metre volcano, late last month to the second highest level after it began to spew lava and ash high into the air. (July 12th 2015)

Activists Say Awareness Key to Safer Child Adoptions as Debate Heats Up Child welfare activists have called for greater awareness and adherence to formal adoption laws, as public debate on the adoption of Indonesian children by foreign citizens continues in the wake of high-profile child abuse cases. “Regulations already exist. The law is in place. But what’s happening now is the regulation is not implemented,” said Samsul Ridwan, secretary general of the National Commission for Child Protection (Komnas Anak). “The lack of proper implementation leads to adoptions that ultimately harm children,” Samsul said on Wednesday (8/7). Samsul’s comments come in the wake of the tragic murder of an 8-year-old girl in Bali, whose death has sparked debate on child adoption policies. Engeline, who was adopted by an Indonesian woman and her American partner, was found dead in the backyard of her foster mother’s home in Denpasar, Bali, on June 8. According to a statement released by Social Services Minister Khofifah Indar Parawansa, Engeline’s adoptive parents had skipped official procedures for child adoption, bypassing legal channels for inter-country adoption. The process involves numerous requirements, including clauses mandating that prospective adoptive parents be residents of Indonesia for over two years, and married for a minimum of five years. Child adoption involving foreigners also requires paperwork from relevant foreign embassies, and final approval by an Indonesian court. The rigorousness of existing adoption laws means that radical change may not be necessary, argue child protection activists in response to recent calls to outright ban the adoption of Indonesian children by foreign citizens. “Indonesia already has regulations for the adoption of local children by foreign nationals,” Samsul said. “As long as we follow these regulations properly, I don’t think we’ll see foreign adoptions that end up harming children.”

Komnas Anak’s findings come in direct conflict with recent statements made by Asrorun Niam Soleh, head of the Commission of Children Protection (KPAI), who believes that Engeline’s case indicates the need for a ban on inter-country adoptions. In a statement delivered on June 30, Asrorun proposed a moratorium on the practice, stating that they should only be conducted as a last resort, “especially… by foreigners.” Asrorun further noted that adoptions by foreigners “hurt the country’s dignity,” as the national constitution places child welfare under the sole purview of the Indonesian government. However, child protection activists believe that halting legal adoption processes by foreigners could lead to greater complications. Rien Tjipto Winoto, head of the Sayap Ibu Foundation, believes that preventing foreigners from legally adopting Indonesian children could result in an increased number of illegal adoptions, as in the Engeline case. “If this one channel is closed, what are families going to do? If official inter-country adoption is halted, we will face issues where these activities come unaccountable, and no one can take responsibility.” “If this channel is shut, we won’t be able to control where adoptions happen. So when people say that inter-country adoption should banned, we cannot agree,” added Rien. Established in 1955, the Sayap Ibu Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides transnational adoption services, a responsibility granted by the Indonesian Ministry of Social Affairs. “We are already very aware of the risks of inter-country adoption, which is why regulations are so strict. They already work in accordance with government guidelines,” said Rien. “We must remain dutiful in following procedures if we wish to ensure child safety.” (July 7th 2015)

Terminal Shut Down at Jakarta Airport After Early Morning Blaze At least 56 flights suffered delays after a massive fire engulfed a lounge at an international flight terminal of Soekarno-Hatta International Airport outside Jakarta on Sunday (5/7) morning. The inferno reportedly lit up around 6 a.m. at the J.W. Sky Lounge at Terminal 2E at the main airport serving Indonesia’s capital. There were no reports of casualties in the fire, believed to have been triggered by an electrical short circuit in the lounge, but it did force passengers who had already checked in to evacuate to other terminals. The fire also forced airport officials to close down traffic in front of the terminal. Three firefighter trucks spent over two hours before they managed to extinguish the fire. As of Sunday at noon, national flag carrier Garuda Indonesia said it had been forced to delay at least 56 domestic and international flights because the fire caused a blackout across Terminal 2. (July 6th 2015) Police Seize 37 Green Turtles Bali Police have released 37 endangered green turtles after halting a smuggling attempt conducted by four people from Madura in East Java to Bali. The turtles were released on Thursday (9/7) at Segara Beach in Sanur, 11 of which were mature turtles and 26 were smaller-sized turtles. “We expect the authorities to cooperate with the officers from Balawista for monitoring that the turtles are safe,” said Bali Police Chief Inspector General Ronny Sompie. According to Sompie, a routine search conducted on Padanggalak Beach led to Police officers searching the suspect’s boat, which contained the endangered animals. The four suspects all originated from Madura. Officials believe the turtles were to be sold at the infamous animal market in Denpasar. Green turtles sell at prices ranging from Rp. 3 - 5 million on the illegal animal market. (July 10th 2015) Two Indonesian Pilots Pose Security Threat: Australian Authorities Australian authorities believe two Indonesian pilots radicalized by pro-Islamic State (IS) forces may pose an international security threat, according to a leaked intelligence report. The Australian Federal Police (AFP) operational intelligence report, titled “Identification of Indonesian pilots with possible extremist persuasions” and made available online by The Intercept on Thursday (9/7), said the AFP was alerted in March 2015 that two Indonesian pilots, Ridwan Agustin and Tommy Abu Alfatih, had posted information on social media that indicated support for IS. “Upon review of the content from both accounts it is assessed that these persons are likely being influenced by radical elements - at least from the online environment and, as a result, may pose a security threat,” Xinhua news agency quoted the report as saying. “Their access and knowledge of security and safety regimes provides the ability to attempt attacks as witnessed by past global events. It is noted that a recent edition of the Al Qaeda magazine Inspire actively encouraged attacks within the aviation environment.” Fairfax Media reported one of the pilots is believed to have traveled to Australia among his many destinations across the world. The second pilot, reportedly a former AirAsia Indonesia pilot, now claims to be living in the Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa in eastern Syria. The report was disseminated to global security agencies. (July 9th 2015) Rabies Cases Spread to 155 Villages in Bali The Head of the Department of Animal Husbandry and Health for Bali, Putu Sumantra, has announced on Monday (6/7) that canine rabies is now present in as many as 155 villages on the island. According to Sumantara, the outbreak of rabies in Bali is caused by the masses of “street dogs & strays” that are uncared for or abandoned by their owners. “We are trying to control this by mass vaccination however the huge number of these dogs makes this a difficult operation. We have had to resort to mass culling of dogs throughout the Island and as many as 5,000 dogs have already been culled so far,” he said. “Our dog population is estimated to be more than 500,000, this is way too many dogs for Bali. Ideally we should have only 200,000,” he said. “The majority of rabies cases are located in Karangasem, Buleleng and Bangli,” said Sumantra. (July 6th 2015)

Two Jailed Over Bali Murder of Australian Robert Ellis Two men jailed for the murder of an Australian businessman in Bali have responded angrily after getting heavier sentences than the victim’s wealthy wife, who planned the hit. Adolf Malo Rangga and Martin Ngongo Bili have been sentenced to 15 years in jail for their parts in the murder of Robert Ellis, 60, in October last year. Noor Ellis, Ellis’ wife of 25 years, was last month jailed for 12 years for arranging five men to ambush her husband in their Sanur villa, and directing two maids to clean up the mess after his throat was slashed on the kitchen floor. Mr. Ellis’ family slammed the lenient sentence, which the prosecution will not appeal. Rangga hit back at the judges in Denpasar District Court on Monday, asking why they were punished more harshly. Chief Judge Ahmad Peten Sili said he “should be grateful. You killed a man. A planned killing should be punished with death,” he said. (July 6th 2015) Man Selling Rare Eagles via Facebook Arrested Police in Surabaya, a hotbed of wildlife trafficking, seized 16 eagles of various types from a trafficker who was using Facebook to connect with potential customers. A tip alerted the authorities to the trafficker. They used the internet to confirm his activities before moving to arrest him at his house in Surabaya’s Bubutan area. The changeable hawk-eagle (Nisaetus cirrhatus), white-bellied sea eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) and spotted kestrel (Falco moluccensis) were among the birds seized. “Some animals were packed in cardboard boxes and ready to be sent by courier to the customers,” police spokesman Argo Yuwono said. The police need residents to inform them about wildlife trafficking when they see it, according to Argo. “We have a cyber-crime unit, but we still hope for help from the community,” he said. The animals have been sent to East Java province’s Natural Resources Conservation Agency (BKSDA). The trafficker faces a maximum penalty of five years behind bars and a fine of Rp100m ($7,500). (July 8th 2015) Rupiah to be used for All Transactions in Indonesia Indonesia has made it mandatory for the rupiah to be used for all transactions in the country, from booking a hotel room to paying rent, in a move to shore up the currency. The rupiah is the second-worst performing currency in Asia this year after the Malaysian ringgit. Yesterday, it closed at 13,339 to the US dollar. Over the last few weeks, it has fallen to levels not seen since the financial crisis in August 1998. Those who flout the regulation can be fined at least 1 per cent of the value of the illegal transaction or up to 1 billion rupiah (S$100,000). There are exemptions, such as transactions related to the state Budget or international trade, the central bank said in a statement. Mr. Bill Sullivan, a Jakarta-based legal adviser to the mining as well as oil and gas sectors, said that while the day-to-day transactions could proceed smoothly, relying on a volatile currency may not give an accurate measure of performance for Indonesia-based executives of multinational corporations whose performance globally is ranked in US dollars. There is still some uncertainty over currencies to be used on e- commerce sites, but some observers say sites that sell Indonesian services such as hotel bookings but are not based in Indonesia can still charge in a foreign currency. Mr. Franky Sibarani, chief of the Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board, told The Straits Times that many investors raised concerns over the lack of clarity surrounding the exemptions. He said he would raise the matter with the central bank and see how to allow reasonable leeway. (July 1st 2015)

SWIMMING NEWS 6th Butchers Club Bali Ocean Swim

Sunday July 5, 2015 saw the running of the 6th Bali Ocean Swim at the Bali Gardens Hotel on Kuta Beach. This year’s event was proudly sponsored by the Butcher’s Club, Seminyak. The Bali Ocean Swim is a premier fund raising event for the Bali Sports Foundation. The event raises money for BSF to fund their swimming programs for people with disabilities. Overall 104 swimmers registered to compete over 3 distances – 1.2K, 5K and the premier event 10k. The 1.2K had 4 categories – juniors (12-17yrs) Adult (18-35yrs) Masters (36-55 yrs) and Veterans (over 55), the 5K swim has 3 categories (Junior, Adult and Masters) and the 10K event was an open event. For the first time the Bali Ocean Swim saw 5 swimmers with disabilities – 4 blind and 1 deaf swimmer compete in the 1.2K swim. This year saw swimmers from Indonesia, Australia, USA, England, Malaysia, Singapore, UK and Japan who competed in excellent conditions under a clear blue sky. Once again Balawista Lifeguards were responsible for setting the course and providing the support and supervision for the swimmers throughout the event. This year saw two special trophies awarded in honour of two supporters of Bali Ocean Swim who tragically passed away within the past year. The Barry Beardman Trophy, sponsored by Bali Gardens Hotel was awarded to I Gusti Ngurah Sumadiana in recognition of his dedication and commitment and was presented to the winner by Sherri Beardman, Barry’s widow. The Seth Richardson Trophy, in honour of a past volunteer of BSF, was awarded to I Wayan Sudarta for good sportsmanship. For the second year running the first swimmer to finish the 10K swim was a female swimmer Jaime Bowler from Perth, Australia who narrowly beat last years winner Caitlyn James from Perth, Australia, across the finish line. The first male to finish the 10K event was Rohan John Hollick from Australia.Special mention needs to go to Bali expat sporting legend Greg “Hinchy” Hinchcliffe,AFL and rugby veteran,in his first ocean swim has taken out the gold in the 5km Masters divison. Organisers wish to thank Butchers Club Bali,BIMC,Bali Garden Resort,Boardwalk Restaurant and Balawista- Bali Life Guards for providing the safety marshals. CRICKET NEWS Hattens Wine Bali Cricket League In the Men’s Division 2 match on 4 July Denpasar batted first and amassed a formidable total of 5 for 177 off their allotted 20 overs with Edy Augustinus leading the way with 62. This total proved to be far too much for the young Gianyar

team who only managed 64 in reply. In the first of 2 Women’s matches on the same day Klungkung scored 7 for 48 which Badung easily reached in 7 overs without losing a wicket. In the second Women’s match Red Ants had a good win against Denpasar when they reached 3 for 51 in reply to their opponent’s score of 2 for 49. In the Men’s Division 1 match on 5 July there was a close battle between BSF Cricket Academy and Xclusive People, the 2 finalists in 2014. BSF bowled very well to have Xclusive People in trouble at 5 for 43 after 11 overs. BSF just managed to hold Xclusive People, whose tail wagged, to a losing total when they fell just short of a victory by 4 runs.

Hannigan’s Islands The delightful Tim Hannigan, former Surabaya English language teacher and scribbler of note around the archipelago, has written another book: A Brief History of Indonesia. Published by Tuttle in Singapore, it will shortly be on the bookshelves everywhere. His earlier effort, Raffles and the British Invasion of Java, caused unseemly ripples on the otherwise imperturbable ponds of British historiography of Empire rendered in the paean style. It upset the teacups at the Hyacinth Bucket-style riparian delights in which some indulge while imagining themselves suffused with the sacred afterglow of the British imperium. Though a serious work (written in a lively, readable, style) Hannigan’s Raffles book was a giggle for those others among us who tend to the view that the man memorialized as the far-seeing founder of Singapore was rather more an insubordinate pirate than a self-effacing, objective servant of the Crown. Since pirates are somewhat in vogue in this context, it was good to hear that Hannigan introduced his new book to the audience at the Penzance Literary Festival at an illustrated talk on Jul. 11 entitled Sultans, Spices and Tsunamis. The Cornish port town has piratical connections extending far further back than Gilbert & Sullivan’s pop opera The Pirates of Penzance. He tells us he can’t make this year’s Ubud Writers and Readers Festival, which is a pity. He has an engagement in Mongolia. Well, no. It’s actually a wedding, though not his own. When we heard this we asked if the happy couple had yet chosen a suitable yurt. They live in an apartment in Ulan Bataar, as any sensible people would. The winters can be nippy. But we learned from Hannigan, who told us he had only relatively recently discovered this for himself, that a yurt is not a yurt at all. It is a ger, pronounced grrrr, surely an appropriate locution for Mongolians who find the foreign fixation with fictitious yurts tedious. Hannigan will be in Bali at next week for book chats at Biku in Seminyak (Jul. 25) and Bar Luna Ubud (Jul.28) and a book signing at Periplus at the airport on Jul. 30. We’ll catch up with him at both Biku – where we’ll also catch up with Asri Kerthayasa’s lovely cakes – and Bar Luna. We’ll pick up a copy of his latest tome too. And it would be nice to see him at UWRF 2016, if that can be arranged.

Smoke and Mirrors The dreadful Mail Online, doyen of the virtual tabloids in both its British and Australian versions, proved again with the eruption of Mt Raung in East Java that in some sections of the media fact is spelled “fict”, professionalism and the brain quality that goes with this are superfluous to corporate requirements, and that common sense flew out of the window long ago. Not to be coy about it, its operators are the media equivalents of garbage in the gutter. When atmospheric volcanic dust from the eruption caused a hazard to aviation, Ngurah Rai International Airport was closed. This was not only a sensible precaution but was also required under international civil aviation regulations. It caused dreadful inconvenience to many, including a number of Australians who in the tried and true and thoroughly infantile traditions of portions of that sheltered community, claimed that their singular problems demanded immediate special attention. The Mail Online, in both its vacuous versions, Brit and antipodean, got out its eggbeaters and presented a fanciful feast of fevered imagination that crossed the boundary into parody. Alongside breathless quotes from the suitably aggrieved (those who plainly had no thought for the technical and safety reasons behind their inconvenience) it ran vision and still photographs from the eruption of Mt Merapi last year, which did indeed blanket Surabaya airport in East Java with a layer of volcanic ash. It passed these off by inference and directly as current images from Bali. It was a disgraceful and depressing display of juvenility. Volcanic eruptions are commonplace in Indonesia. Disruptions of all kinds naturally follow. We have to live with those. Fortunately we can afford to ignore the Mail Online.

and has been organized by Chief Diva Christina Iskandar, it is plainly a do that has more going for it than most. Thus an evening soirée of Greek delights and selected beverages presented by George, Sam and Paul at Slippery Stone’s new Venus Lounge seemed to be invitation we should not refuse. We didn’t make it to the show after all, though. Sadly some god or other – it may have been Hephaestus, the Greek original from whom the Romans conjured Vulcan – had other ideas and something intervened to prevent our attendance. That was a pity, because George, Sam and Paul – and no doubt Christina – wanted us to help bless their new lounge. We’ll drop in sometime. Venus might be in attendance. Old Hep is her hubby, after all, and he may be around these parts for a while.

Barking Again It’s really not clear why any celebratory noises should be made over the claim by Bali’s animal husbandry authority that more than 5000 dogs have been eliminated. Given the methodology, which is to send death squads into villages and communities and kill any dogs found in the open, vaccinated and sterilized dogs will have been eliminated too, in a further assault – most likely fatal – on vital herd immunity to rabies and reduction in numbers through humane methods.

C/NV/U-22 July 15

The head of animal husbandry, Putu Sumantra, says these measures to control and reduce rabies are necessary because the disease is a threat not only to Balinese communities but also to tourist areas. It certainly is, of course, but infection rates vary and are highest in places distant from the south where most of the tourists are. He has a point when he notes that tourists travel within Bali, but frankly that’s not the issue. The Bali government needs to reduce rabies as a threat to the Balinese. They are the people most at risk of being bitten by a suspect dog and then finding there’s little or no supply of essential post-exposure anti-rabies vaccine. It’s not going to achieve this objective in the environment it has created, by failing to maintain the staged rabies reduction program it signed up to in 2010, or blindly ignoring all the data that shows a vaccinated screen of immune dogs prevents human infections and with sterilization programs helps humanely reduce numbers. An incident at Padang Bai recently shows how badly offmessage the government has been. A dog there became suddenly enraged and ran around bit four people and tried to bite others. Hello, you might think: here is a dog showing classic signs of rabies infection. We had better catch it (and kill it if necessary) so that it can be taken to the authorities for laboratory testing. This is not what occurred. Instead an informal posse formed that chased down the dog, beat it to death, and threw its carcass into the sea. Among the posse were police (a policeman had been bitten by the dog) who you would think might think they should deliver the carcass to the authorities. Rabies is hardly a new phenomenon in Bali after all. It’s been here and spread widely since 2008. Human deaths from the disease are sharply up this year. The death squads may also be running into trouble. The authorities say they are killing dogs in response to community pressure. There is evidence of growing resistance among Balinese to this policy, along with increased interest in looking after dogs they own or care for in the informal way that is done here. What sometimes seems to be overlooked by the authorities, who are clearly concerned about Bali’s image as a safe place, is that everyone – even the government’s critics on this issue – is seeking the same solution: a Bali that is free of rabies.

• Human Resources Manager (Sumba)

Just back from Sicily where the food is divine, the wine heavenly, and the people f r i e n d l y . Caponata is Sicilian comfort food and every region boasts it has the best. I had one with potatoes, one with no olives, and this one with celery. This is my current favorite Caponata, inspired by the bilingual cookbook Sicilia in Cucina.

- 1 Tbl. honey - 1 1/2 Tbl. red wine vinegar

Directions:

Excellent communication skills

- 5 Asian eggplants, unpeeled and cut roughly into 3 cm by 1.5 cm long pieces - 4 Tbl. olive oil

- 10 olives pitted and cut into quarters or halves - 2 Tbl. capers - 1/4 cup toasted almonds or pine nuts (you can use cashews) - 1/2 cup raisins - salt and pepper to taste

Background in training Strong leadership, managerial skill & good personality

Toss the eggplant pieces in 1 Tbl. olive oil. Heat a large pan and fry them, turning with tongs to brown each side adding a little bit more oil if needed. When these are cooked remove from the pan and set aside.

When this is done add the browned eggplant pieces, olives, capers, nuts, raisins, salt and pepper, the honey and red wine vinegar. Cook until almost dry and well browned. Remove from the heat and let it stand for at least 30 minutes before garnishing with the basil leaves and serving.

- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped - 2/3 cup celery, cut across the stalk into crescents - 3 carrots, finely chopped - 2/3 cup Savory Tomato Sauce without capers (or your favorite tomato sauce) - http://www.baliadvertiser.biz/ articles/food_glorious/2008/savory.html - 1/4 cup white wine or water - 1 1/2 handful of basil leaves, torn in half.

Have understanding of manpower regulation Organized, motivated, analytical and creative

Serves 4 Ingredients:

hotel/group resort

- a few basil leaves for garnish

Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and heat. Add the chopped onion and stir fry until soft. Add the carrots and celery and slowly cook until the mixture is a delicious brown. Now add the tomato sauce and wine and stir well. Add the basil and after a good stir let it cook for 10 minutes.
