earthquake resistant and will pose minimal risk of injury in case of collapse because of their minimal weight. Additionally the shelters are elevated above the ground to reduce the risk of flooding when the rainy season arrives. See picture of 4m x 6m meter shelter.
The Rotary Club of Bali Canggu Hello and welcome from the Rotary Club Bali Canggu. Canggu Rotarians have been busy since we last wrote in Bali Advertiser. We are a small yet active group of like-minded people who offer service to local projects. We are vibrant and passionate about serving the local Canggu community and beyond. Since our last article we have been busy fundraising for Lombok to collect money to build temporary housing to provide shelter to victims of the quake in outlying areas before the rainy season arrives. During the month of August 2018 Lombok island in Indonesia was hit be a series of devastating earthquakes that killed around 500 people and left another 250,000 people homeless in the north-east part of the island. In the worst hit areas about 95% of houses have been raised to the ground and the population left to sleep in the open rice fields or gardens. Some in fear of more earthquakes, and many because their houses are gone.
Past President Patricia Jameison donated IDR 1 mill to the District RDR Appeal, the same from Daphne and also from RCBC itself. Rotary Club of Misbourne Matins donated IDR 6 million to Rotary Disaster Relief Fund for wooden houses. All the donations listed above were funnelled via Rotary Canggu. Our sister club, The Rotary Club of Zagreb-Maksimir in Croatia also donated USD $600 to build one house. Rotary Project Implementation The funds were transferred to Rotary Club of Bali Canggu’s account and it has been our clubs responsibility to ensure that the funds have been spent as planned and accounted for. A team effort enlisting the help of club president Mark Savage and Rotary Members: Lucienne Anhar of Tugu Hotels, Patrica Jamieson and Dr. Claus Bogh. Selected Project Area: The selected project area is an area called East Sire in North West Lombok. The area was severely damaged by the earth quakes. 90% of the houses were destroyed and the villagers are for most part were sleeping under the open skies in fear of more quakes and because so few houses were left standing. The villagers had many urgent needs of which: basic shelter against sun, wind and rain plus sanitation and access to clean water being the most urgent core needs. See satellite image of village.
The following describes how a 95 million IDR donation raised at Nihi-Sumba resort and funding from other rotary clubs and private donations has allowed our small club, composed of just 10 people to help a local community in great need by re-establishing the basic shelters needed before the rainy season arrives in November. The Fundraising Effort A total of 95 Million IDR was raised at an event at the NihiSumba resort for the sole aim of assisting the people suffering the consequences of the earthquakes in Lombok in August 2018. Funds were raised from both hotel guests, hotel staff and the Nihi hotel. A truly amazing effort for such a small and distant resort. Our generous member have also contributed to the housing project, Rotarian Daphne Zepos has contributed twice, the first amount was raised from a charity dinner at her son’s Hotel Boho at Bingin. And the second was a private donation from the Boho Bingin Beach hotel owners.
Population Size: Dusun Sire Timur has a total population of 279 people covering 120 families. There is a need for around 120 family size shelters. The budget provided for the first 25 small and 10 large shelters for the village. Project Aim Since the donated funds were limited we here proposed to provide basic single family bamboo/tarpaulin shelters to around 35 families in East Sire. Twenty five families will get a small size (3m x 4m) shelter and 10 families will receive a medium (4m x 6m) shelter made of bamboo, triplex, tarpaulin and bedek walls (woven bamboo mats for walls) or in some instances kalsiboard walls. The shelters are flexible so very
The first houses have been constructed and families already under shelter. It has been so heart-warming to see what a small group of people dedicated to helping local communities can achieve in such a short space of time. Hats off to Rotarian Lucienne and her team on Lombok who have been spearheading the sourcing and construction process. On the larger scale there are many organisations working in Lombok, and recently Sumatera. Rotary Indonesia has its own dedicated Rotary Disaster Relief Team who have been working tirelessly to help those affected by natural disasters throughout Indonesia. If you are considering how you can get involved we would love to welcome you to one of our meetings, which are held on the first and third Thursdays of each month at the Tugu Hotel at the end of Jalan Batu Bolong. We gather at 6pm for a social gathering followed by a meeting that typically runs from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. As well as meeting like-minded people, learning about club projects, listening to guest speakers present on interesting topics, you are welcome to join the evening chatting to members, visiting Rotarians and guests after the meeting finishes. Alternatively join us for a fundraising event for Melbourne Cup day on 6th November, to be held at the Capt. Cook Sports Bar in Banjar Semer. There are a ton of raffle prizes that have been kindly donated by local businesses and some great auction prizes. For information or tickets for the event please email Donna Greene at donna.greene21@ gmail.com Details of the fundraiser are also on our Facebook page at: h t t p s : / / w w w . f a c e b o o k . c o m / events/910530239134862/?ti=icl We hope to see you soon.

Melbourne Cup mania is sweeping through Bali, and Solemen is racing for the win to help the island’s disadvantaged population. In the past year, the number of men, women, and children under their care has doubled! As of September, of this year, they are looking after 1,772 of Bali’s less fortunate and the number grows day by day as new cases are continuously brought to this humanitarian organisation’s attention. Now that’s a lot of Solebuddies who need our help! Thanks to the support of Solemen’s generous sponsors and donors over the past year, they have been able to ease the suffering of more than a few! This Bali based non profit NGO has provided no less than 24 wheelchairs to individuals who could not afford them. Food packages are being distributed monthly, along with nutritional milk for adults and children. Solemen has also been able to sponsor three rural children to attend school, and they’ve built four houses for local families in need! Solehouse, a place where the Solebuddies are able to stay when receiving treatment or recovering from medical procedures, is funded entirely by donations and sponsorship. Made ‘Yudi’ Pranata lives in the Karangasem region of eastern Bali near Mt. Agung. Yudi is eight years old and suffers from Epidermyosis Bullosa, a painful genetic condition which causes the skin to blister and fracture easily. His younger brother, who also suffered from EB, died at the age of four. Death from infections and skin cancer and disability among those who have EB is common. Although Yudi has been in and out of the hospital, he was able to start school this year! The Solemen Outreach team ensures he has check-ups every three
health checks. The ‘Health Education Project’ is a result of a Community Grant Scheme, (CGS). It is a small grants initiative funded by Solemen partners, the Planet Wheeler Foundation, and managed by AVI. Solemen was fortunate enough to be awarded this grant earlier in 2018. The booklets produced were funded mainly through grants, not direct donations. months, and they provide Aquaphor cream and Melolin dressings to reduce the risk of infection. This year, Solemen will also be launching the ‘Health Education Project’ targeted at educating Bali’s rural population. Four health education booklets developed and designed by the Solemen team have been written in simple Bahasa Bali and illustrated with images and topics that are regionally specific. The booklets include examples of healthy meals that are culturally appropriate and highlight locally grown and readily available produce. Topics addressed in the booklets include: First Aid, Healthy Pregnancy, Personal Hygiene and Nutritious Diets. A series of workshops will follow the distribution of 12,000 booklets across regional Bali in order to further improve understanding regarding the booklet information as well as provide an opportunity for community members to ask questions to the Solemen team and undergo simple
It is through community grants such as these as well as the continual and much appreciated support from generous sponsors, businesses and individuals in the community that allow Solemen’s Outreach Programs to ‘benefit the poor, the disadvantaged, the ‘diffabled’, the homeless and the marginalised in Bali.’ Lend a hand to support a Solebuddy and help this organisation to assist even more of those less fortunate who fall through the cracks and do not receive help from the existing network of charitable organisations and government programs. To donate, or offer assistance contact Solemen today or come along and support the Solemen team on Tuesday November 6th for Melbourne Cup Day at Finns VIP, where all proceeds from raffles, auctions and sweepstakes on the day go directly to Solemen Indonesia to continue their tireless support for our island communities. http://www.solemen.org https://www.facebook.com/IndonesiaSoleMen https://twitter.com/solemenindo Phone: 0812 3720 6220 | Email: info@solemen.org

11 ARE YOU AN ETHICAL INVESTOR? Around twelve years ago the company I was working with held a seminar for clients in Bali. It was part of a world tour by several fund managers who managed a range of funds supported by the company.
ous employment practices. The list is endless and finding an equity fund that avoids all the possibly ‘harmful’ products would be nigh impossible.
One of the managers was showing slides of the various companies whose shares he had selected for his fund. These included British American Tobacco. As soon as he showed that slide a lady in the audience stood up and scolded him for buying shares in a company that was responsible for so much misery and death. She had good reason; her husband had recently died as a result of smoking.
One problem is that companies do not fall neatly into ‘good’ or ‘bad’ categories. For example, an oil company may be guilty of depleting the world’s natural resources and polluting the world yet it may be allocating an increasingly large part of its resources to alternative and ‘clean’ sources of energy. If it is not, it is going to be left behind when the world turns its back on fossil fuels.
The speaker was dumbstruck; he had no response. This was clearly his first and painful introduction to the concept of ethical investing.
If an ethical fund decided to exclude all companies associated with alcohol it would be very popular with devout muslims for whom alcohol is ‘haram’ but it would not go down well with investors who enjoy a glass or two of beer or wine.
Is ethical investing new? People will have different views on arms. No-one wants to see their money being used in warfare but countries have a right to defend themselves and have to rely on arms to do so. Buying arms from another country would not make sense.
It has actually been around a long time. In 1832 English Quakers Samuel Tuke and Joseph Rowntree established an insurance and savings mutual, Friends Provident, which would enable the many to provide protection for the unfortunate few who get hit by life-changing events. They introduced a set of core values that would add a new dimension to investing.
When ethics conflict with reality We can all have noble thoughts on where we place our money but we then have to allign those thoughts with the reality of financial returns and other social considerations.
So-called ethical funds have also been around for decades but they haven’t exactly gained the star ratings that would attract investors on a large scale. But that could be changing as the business world adapts to the new forces of social media, regulation, class action suits and so on. The field of ethics is no longer reserved for great philanthropists like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett who are directing a good part of their fortunes to causes that will make for a better world. New challenges are also coming from ‘millennials’ who will not accept the status quo of the way money is made and even ‘baby boomers’ are starting to feel guilty about the state of the world they are leaving to their grandchildren. Exactly what is ethical investing? In its simplest form it means avoiding investments in any product that is perceived to be but harmful. The list can include the obvious ones such as tobacco, gambling and arms can be extended to alcohol, oil companies, coal mining, nuclear energy and even obesity-causing fast food companies and manufacturers of sugary drinks. It can also include products like mobile phones that use supply chains that rely on companies with dubi-
Very recently President Trump was faced with an ethical dilemma. In face of the alleged murder of a journalist in the Saudi Arabian consulate in Turkey he promised severe action against Saudi should the allegations prove correct. But he said he would not cancel the multi-billion arms deal he had agreed with the Saudis, citing the argument that the deal would mean jobs for Americans and also that the business would otherwise go to Russia or China. If you were in his shoes what action would you take? Positive ethical investing Apart from eliminating ‘unsuitable’ products, another way to invest is to seek out funds that invest only in assets which play a positive role in protecting and enhancing the environment. Examples would be funds like BlackRock or Guinness Alternative Energy funds or the Shroder Climate Change fund that invests in companies such as those developing electric cars. More and more institutions such as pension funds and also fund managers are now putting pressure on companies to declare their commitment to ethical or ‘sustainable’ investing.

A word of caution. Where there are new trends there are also potential dangers so ‘caveat emptor’ still applies. Around ten years ago the ‘green’ theme became very popular and our industry was drawn into a number of environmentally friendly ‘sustainable’ forestry products such as bamboo, agarwood and jatropha plants, the processed fruits of which have proved able to replace jet fuel. But many of these ventures failed, basically due to lack of proper governance, a critical factor, not just for ethical investing but for all kinds of investments and companies.

For example, smoking is clearly a major health problem in Indonesia with millions of lives cut short each year through the habit. But were the government to ban smoking overnight, apart from causing a revolution in the streets it would lose a huge amount of tax revenue and it would also cause the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs. So any shift from smoking would require a long educational process as well as ensuring that new jobs were created.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)

Poor governance was deemed responsible for safety problems at BP some years ago as well as the emissions scandal at Volkswagon. So the pressure is now on all companies to ensure that the culture of a company takes its leadership from the top, and that the executives are made fully accountable when things go wrong. The same goes for big banks after years of sanctions for wrongdoing including money-laundering and interest rate manipulation.
C/BT/I-24 Oct 18
The terms ‘ethical investing’ and sustainable investing are now rapidly being replaced by the letters ESG, standing for environmental, social and governance. There will always be conflicts between practicalities and doing the right thing. Let’s face it, if we have a choice between investing in an ethical fund that is making a 2% annual return and a conventional fund that is making 10% few of us would opt for the ethical fund. But the good news is that improved governance and awareness of the way the world is going is leading to a situation where sustainable or ethical funds are now competing on level terms and have good prospects of outperforming funds whose managers are focused only on profit and show no interest in making the world a better place. Do watch out for the term ESG. We are likely to see a lot more of it!

SHE’S GOT THE LOOK! BLOW BAR BALI
Have you had a bad hair day lately? Or is your crowning glory looking less like a crown these days? Time for some hair care. I went to Blow Bar Bali, a new concept in an up-market cocktail bar set amidst a salon. Enjoy a cocktail whilst having your hair done. Very cool! They have a well-stocked bar, including champagne, wine and beer with well-trained bartenders mixing the latest cocktails. This sits centre stage of the room surrounded by hair stations, pedicure lounge and hair washing station.
What started as a cocktail bar with hair blow drying has now transpired into including full services of hair-cuts, colour, hair extensions, hair spa, manicure/ pedicure, eyelash extensions and waxing. Open from 10 am to 10 pm in the middle of “Eat Street” foot traffic can drop in for a cocktail and get more beautiful while they’re there. Men often frequent the place also. Entering Blow Bar I was immediately impressed. A long chic oval cocktail bar occupies most of the room. After checking in with reception I was told that my hairdresser Angela was on the way. The receptionist instructed me to go sit at the bar and order a cocktail. Taking a seat on a tall stool I gazed over the assortment of bottles, noticing the bottles of champagne on the top shelf. The bartender was mixing a cocktail for the man seating near me. I watched fascinated, at his mixing skills. Looking over the menu it was difficult to choose. Then the bartender came and smiled at me and asked what I’d like. “I’m not sure.” He asked. “Do you like coffee?” the cocktail he had just finished had coffee in it. “No, I don’t like coffee.” I replied. He nodded. “Do you like something sweet or sour?” “Not too sweet.” I replied. “How about a Pink Bikini?” he suggested. “What’s in it?” I asked curious. “Vodka. Raspberry and a sour whipped cream.” I shrugged my shoulders unsure. He then took a silver whipped cream dispenser and pushed out a small spoon of white foam and handed it to me. I was expecting whipped cream but this wasn’t so sweet. Raising my eyebrows in question. “It’s made with cheese and whipped cream. A little sour.” “No. I don’t think so.” I perused the menu. “A cosmopolitan.” One of my favourite cocktails. He smiled and proceeded to mix my drink then poured it into a tall elegant glass and set it before me with a smile. Taking a sip, it was delicious. “Perfect.” I complimented him. A few minutes later one of the staff came to me and asked me to come to have my hair washed. Entering the shampoo cave which had three white sculptured shampoo chairs, she gestured towards the one on the left. Settling back into the chair she proceeded to shampoo my hair, massaging my scalp, which felt so good. After rinsing my hair she repeated the shampoo then followed it with conditioner. “What kind of shampoo products do you use?” I asked curious. “Davines from Italy.” She replied. With a towel wrapped around my head I was escorted to a hair station and immediately introduced to Angela, my hairdresser.”
She unwrapped the towel and combed through my hair. “Beautiful colour. I like the blue highlights.” She commented, “Do you have any idea of what style you’d like?” “I’m not sure.” “I suggest giving your hair a little more definition and shape.” She suggested. “Hold on, I’ll get a photo.” She left me to sip on my cocktail for a few minutes. She returned a few minutes later with an iPhone with photos of hairstyles. She pointed to one, which I really liked. She quickly scrolled through the other photos then returned to the first one. “I think this one will suit you, cutting at an angle and a little shorter at the back. I’ll thin out the top to give you more volume.” She explained pointing to the haircut. I nodded in agreement and gave my permission to proceed. She ran her fingers through my hair and started snipping. “Do you offer colour here?” I asked as she worked. “Oh, yes. We have full services now. Hair spa, hair extensions, highlights, Keratin treatment, manicure and pedicure. Eye lash extensions and waxing.” When she finished she asked if I’d like her to blow dry my hair. “Would you like it straight or something curly to give you an idea of how it will look after you go home?” she asked. “I thought only straight hair blow dry is done here”. I commented looking at the other clients. “Oh no, we have different options for blow dry.” She laughed. “But many ladies like to have straight shiny hair after being on the beach which looks dry. It gives them a nice look for an evening out for dinner.” She applied a little moisturizer to my hair before starting the hair dryer.

When she finished she removed the smock over my body and stood back smiling. “What do you think?” My hair looked like it had sparks of blue amidst the light curls. “I love it.” Angela grabbed a round mirror to show me the back and sides of my hair. “It looks great!” I smiled at her. “Thank you so much.” “You’re welcome.” She smiled. “It was nice meeting you.” I left feeling gorgeous.

A Movement of Recovery
by Ines Wynn
There are quite a few addiction recovery programs in Bali and some of these were highlighted in an article I wrote in the BA edition of 6 July 2016. Undoubtedly more recovery centres have seen the light of day since then as these programs are sorely needed given the high rate of addiction in our society. Most of these programs –at least those catering to expats and foreign nationals- can be easily located with a Google search but to my knowledge there is no easy way to find a comparison site or a platform that allows people to have an overview of all the available services in a given area, especially lower-cost facilities and those catering to the Indonesian population. At least up till now. As founder of Sivana Bali Rehabilitation Centre, Nev Doidge has been aware of this obvious lack of information, especially the alternatives to high-end, private treatment centres. What’s more, he also felt that addiction treatment and recovery programs often have a reputation of having to be ‘endured’ rather than enjoyed. He felt there should be a more joyful way for recovering addicts to look forward to a clean and purposeful life and all it has to offer; to truly celebrate their recovery process. For that two-pronged approach he created Movement of Recovery (MOR) Project, a platform specifically designed to be a gathering place for all information about recovery services available in Indonesia, using the organisation’s website and diverse social media platforms to reach people needing help. Besides publishing an index of the available services, the site also allows these providers to promote their services and share resources. MOR offers the marketing promotions to facilities that generally cannot afford to do so otherwise, to local NGOs, government facilities and private services alike. At the same time MOR is also a place for recovering addicts to tell their story in 2 minute video clips and explain how they broke free from active addiction, giving an inside view into the lives of those who have found freedom from substance use and a s s o c i a t e d consequences. As such it is creating a tribe of brothers and sisters in recovery in Indonesia and abroad celebrating their success, sharing their stories across the media platforms and helping other addicts take the plunge into recovery. In essence, Movement Of Recovery (MOR) is a lifestyle choice peer support system and the beginning of building community based resource centres whereby youth, those in recovery, and the larger community can feel supported and be encouraged to aspire to live healthy and productive lives. ’All are welcome’ says Nev, ‘as are all modalities and models of recovery rehabilitation.’ Nev Doidge has always had a bit of a reputation as a groundbreaker, always seeking new ways to help addicts regain a joyful hold of an addiction-free life. Originally from Christchurch, New Zealand he has been living in Bali for the past 7 years where he established the successful Sivana rehabilitation centre. As a professional Alcohol and Drug practitioner and Social Worker in the addiction field he wanted to push the challenge of recovery to new heights and saw the creation of the MOR Project as a fitting next step.
So he bought a camper van called Rosie -now sometimes dubbed as Valentino Rosie after the famed motorcycle racing champion- and formed a team with an Indonesian addiction professional named Johanes Maryono (Joh) and a crew of 11 volunteers from as far as New Zealand, Australia, Poland and Indonesia. Nev and Joh took off on a 20.000 km cross-island trip from Bali to Aceh and back to build momentum for the MOR Project. ‘Joh is an Indonesian addiction and recovery counsellor from Solo who’s been working in the field for 12 years and founded two low end facilities here in Indonesia’, says Nev. ‘He originally came to me looking for a job. He was given the option to do what he knows and what he’s good at for a great salary at Sivana or he could join me on a venture, building a voice of change through Indonesia by travelling on the road in a van with me and no pay. It speaks volumes about Joh’s commitment that he chose the MOR Project.’ During their travels, Nev and Joh comb the areas on their parcours to find lesser known programs and facilities that cater to addiction recovery and rehabilitation in order to document the necessary information for the MOR database. As part of the documentation process they are recording, filming and promoting the local recovery services, offering a networking platform for services to promote themselves, share resources and information. ‘Movement Of Recovery MOR is an independent body that can reach many through our extensive social media network and website’ says Nev. ‘We are an international resource with a large potential to gather funding for initiatives furthering the growth of services, resources and recovery throughout Indonesia.’ He further explains that ‘the MOR project has a clear set of principles and values to which we adhere. One of these is that we do not critique any service or get involved or have opinion on political issues, with any person or institution. Our only reply or response is - how can we help?’ The MOR platform is used to build resources and funding initiatives to help and motivate addicts seeking treatment in Indonesia, to raise public awareness about available resources to treat addiction, to give addicts in recovery a chance to celebrate recovery and to break the stigma surrounding substance related issues and addiction and to promote the courageous and awesome work local services are providing in Indonesia while battling difficulties like lack of resources and funding. The team is using GoPro, drones and video on the road trip to capture the spirit of recovery in Indonesia and abroad. The MOR website is still under construction and will launch early 2019 with a directory index of all treatment services available in Indonesia, contact information and video footage of that service. It is a service that can offer direct help to those seeking information for themselves, family members or friends. In the meantime the MOR team is using their social media network to promote and document their journey. MOR’s Facebook page contains videos and posts of many services and addicts in recovery, westerners and Indonesian people sharing their stories about their journey of recovery through social media. The video clips are in both English and Indonesian with translated subtitles. The MOR project started in February this year and the movement is rapidly gaining momentum as substantiated by some 19.000 active followers on its Facebook page and the media attention from various local print and digital media.
NC/HE/U-24 Oct 18
Newspaper articles on the venture through Sumatra have appeared in the Pekanbaru Tribune Newspaper and the Padang Metro newspaper. TV interviews in Lampung and Jakarta have hit the local airwaves and given impetus to the cause. MOR has also been featured on various media platforms such as Kumpuran, Liputan 6 and Kompass. The Indonesian road trip started in Bali and wound its way through the major cities of Java, from Banyuwangi to Surabaya, Solo, Jogjakarta and Jakarta. From there the team crossed over to Sumatra and visited Lampung, Curup, Padang, Bukittinggi, Pekanbaru, Medan and Aceh. Aceh is the end point where the team began their return trip to home base Bali planning to arrive around the 1st of December. In all they will have travelled 20.000 km in 150 days. Once in Bali they’ll recoup and begin uploading content to the website and social media networks and establish the first MOR community resource service in Bali. They are also planning to establish the next MOR project in Jogjakarta where the community has a serious need but lacks the resources. The project is a totally independent initiative steered by persons in recovery and all involved in the growth of recovery. It has no affiliation with Sivana Bali or any other organisation or institution in order to serve and remain a voice for all persons and all services related to recovery or those that support the cause. This is not a moneymaking venture by any means and is currently funded entirely by Nev’s personal savings but initiatives are in discussion as to how to make the project an independent source where it generates its own self sustaining revenue. When that goal is reached, Nev wants to take the project one step further and establish an all-Asia database directory service for persons and families seeking help from substance related issues, not just for Indonesia. Sometime next year the team will travel to New Zealand and Australia showcasing the MOR journey and the need for support in Indonesia to further the growth of recovery. They will do this through their social media network, video footage and presentations. MOR can produce many different videos to promote the growth of recovery in Indonesia and abroad and allow people to donate and fund different causes undertaken by the MOR Project. When queried about the highlights on this trip so far, Nev mentioned his great delight at being welcomed into Indonesian recovery services, homes and government agencies throughout Java and Sumatra. ‘It’s been a massive insight for me as a Bule, seeing the want and spirit of Indonesia and those seeking recovery, looking into the eyes of young Indonesians and knowing the consequences of drug use do not discriminate. It has been truly inspirational to see that MOR is able to instil the desire for a joyful recovery among Indonesian addicts and that the signs are there it will make some serious positive change together with other existing persons and organisations that are doing great service and supporting the cause here in Indonesia. The MOR project asks and invites those in recovery, those that support the cause, and the larger community to help build and support the MOR Project in helping create a place of hope, love and support and lead the way to healthy lifestyle choices.’ www.movementofrecovery.org - (Website due to launch early 2019) https://web.facebook.com/movementofrecovery/

Say What? Question: Long story short: I’m in my 20s, he is 10 years older. The two of us broke up earlier this year. He had slept with two other women while we were together. I was disgusted and called it off. Wanting to be amicable, I left the door open for a potential future friendship, but I told him I needed time. I wish it had ended there, but about a month ago, I contacted him in a moment of loneliness and apologized for cutting it off. I also said that I tend to be shy about expressing my true feelings, and that I was sorry. After a month of casually texting and emailing back and forth, he suddenly texted asking to meet me. After a few texts back and forth, I discovered that he had traveled 4,000 km without warning to Bali to see me. I panicked and texted him to leave me alone, and everything ended there. I never wanted to start a romantic relationship again; I had only wanted to restart our friendship. I hate that I had to hurt him, but at the same time, I don’t want to see him again. I feel as if he was trying to pressure me into doing something I didn’t want to do, but I still can’t justify my behavior. Did I do wrong? Was I leading him on? Dr. ZZ: The guy apparently mistook your friendly messages for a romantic overture and made what he thought was an elaborate romantic gesture in return, except it felt more like stalking. That isn’t about you “leading him on”; it’s about a story he told himself in his head about what you wanted and about what would happen when he showed up. If you felt as if he was trying to pressure you into doing something you didn’t want to do, you felt correctly. You learned what he was like the first time you parted ways, and then you tried to give him another chance to be in your life as a friend, and he blew it. You did the right thing by not meeting him. Your instincts were protecting you. I’m sure it was very hurtful for him when you did not want to meet him, but that’s not your fault. He set himself up for a fall and overstepped your boundaries. Hopefully he will learn to save elaborate, romantic gestures for people who are actually interested in his elaborate,
romantic gestures. Because he has not been in touch with you since you asked him to leave you alone, I imagine you’re safe from further pop-ins. Still, it may help you feel better to block him on email and social media, and see if you can block texts and calls from him on your cell phone. It’s one step closer to leaving him and everything about him entirely in the past. Question: I’m in my 30’s and have been living in Bali for about 6 months. I’m a full-time student and involved in volunteer work. For about a month, I have been dating a man who is a couple of years older than I. He is divorced and a bit shorter as well. I have tried to overlook it, but I feel a little embarrassed by our almost 5 cm height difference. At first, we agreed to keep our relationship casual, but he keeps telling me that he feels a unique connection and can fall in love with me. Knowing how commitment-phobic I am, he teases me about introducing me to his parents and planning a wedding. Passively but progressively, he keeps trying to move things to another level. It all seems weird, and I’m hoping that the glow and the newness of this will wear out soon even though we get along well, we have great sexual chemistry, and I generally feel relaxed and comfortable with him. It seems ridiculous to break up with him because he likes me too much, and I’ve been honest all along about my
intentions. I like things as they are, and I like feeling loved and desired, but I’m afraid of things becoming more serious without my realizing it before it’s too late. I also feel horrible saying this, but I feel as if I can do better. Dr. ZZ: Sometimes we meet someone who is nice and sexy and likes us a lot, and we cannot think of a single reason to break up with them except for the fact that they are not the right person for us, and we know it. If you’ve been honest with this man, and you’re enjoying dating, then keep dating. But, know that the time is coming when he will push you for some kind of commitment, you’ll say no, and you will have to remind him that you told him from the start that you didn’t want that. Even though you’ve been honest, he will probably feel angry and betrayed because you appear to be dating someone who may not be hearing your “no” when you speak. He may be hearing only what he wants to hear. One month is way too soon to be talking about marriage and meeting families. You may want to start seriously limiting how often you see him - say, no more than 2-3 times per month - and make an effort to meet other people. The best way to make your “no” heard is to enforce it. If you’re already embarrassed to be seen with him and sense you can do better, then the kind thing is to put a stop to it now. It won’t get any easier. Bottom line: enjoy your experience of Bali whatever you decide

A Geek in Indonesia by Tim Hannigan
independence film is necessarily skipped over. Nevertheless, this 3-page chapter, as well as the section on the current state of Indonesian commercial TV, are all that the newcomer to Indonesia needs to initially know.
For anyone wanting to move beyond tired travel guide formulas, award-winning travel writer and Indonesia expert Tim Hannigan has finally given Southeast Asia’s biggest country its proper due. A Geek in Indonesia provides a hip, streetwise introduction to an increasingly popular travel destination. From the author’s extensive first-hand experience gained from living many years in Indonesia, this book is packed with lively articles on everything from office and cafe culture to food and dating rituals.
I don’t understand why the book’s primary users are geeks, defined in the Urban Dictionary as people you picked on in high school and wind up working for as an adult. I think a more accurate title should be Tim Hannigan‘s Indonesia as the work represents this writer’s very own take on the country, a memoir/travelogue to a place that he loves, full of personal reminisces, insights and strange encounters. Hannigan is so well established an authority on Indonesia that he has earned the right to his own quirky, subjective view.
Read this book if you want to learn about films that feature transsexual superheroes, jazz musician who play Bali Hindu-infused compositions, the thriving busker city street culture, pop group members who are female versions of the Ramones, Surabaya’s numerous motorbike communities, where to hire vintage bicycles in Jakarta, vulgar popular soap operas, Indonesia’s bald male version of Oprah Winfrey, the Indonesian blogosphere and the best examples of Indonesia’s filthy gutter press. The topics are Java-centric and focus only intermittently and fleetingly on the myriad cultures of the outer islands.
We are blessed that such an ambitious work was taken on by a keenly observant, first-class writer, who is also a dedicated outdoorsman who has experienced firsthand many of the country’s natural wonders. He is enthusiastic, well-informed and possesses a social conscience. Illustrated with hundreds of images, the captions are precise and accurate. I’m not aware of any other more visually-appealing, in-depth and ambitious survey of modern Indonesian culture and society. Like no other, the book accomplishes a sweeping, condensed yet satisfying and shrewd snapshot of this kaleidoscopic island nation in both pictures and words without succumbing to over the top superlatives. Though it would be a gargantuan task, I fervently hope that it will be updated every 2-3 years.
With passages that could be lifted right out of Rolling Stone magazine, Hannigan is a glib and hip music writer. In a book meant for the general reader, Hannigan devotes a substantial 13 pages to all manner of Indonesian music. No modern treatment of Indonesia delves so deeply into the contemporary music scene than in the chapter “The Musical Archipelago” which covers dangdut divas, jazz musicians, as well as the traditional musical forms gamelan, kroncong, Balinese polyphonic ensembles, Sundanese vocalists and strange ethnic instruments from the remote Maluku Islands. One delightful section pays homage to the ragged troubadours that serenade stopped cars in Java’s gridlocked cities - the foot soldiers of Indonesia’s musical army. Even the Indonesian punk scene is accorded three whole pages, complete with a playlist of the best of each type of music. Did you know that there are dozens of Guinnessswilling, fiddle-playing, shamrock-toting, Flogging Molly-style Celtic punk bands in Java? The author has immersed himself thoroughly in all things Indonesian. Written in an irreverent, youthful tone and offering clear explanations, Hannigan is equally conversant writing about the arcane Arabic origins of Indonesian music, whether it be the weird extreme cuisines of the Outer Islands, historic volcanic eruptions from a volcanologists perspective or astute critiques of Indonesian Indie cinema. Within its pages you’ll come face to face with the reality of 21st-century Indonesia-from weddings, entertainment, travel and local fashion bloggers to the world’s most avid tweeters, controversial feminist activists, rock pioneers and scandalous celebrities.
Geek in Indonesia is not for those with a passing, lukewarm interest in Indonesia but for people who intend to stay awhile and need a crash course on the inner fiber of the country’s culture and society. It’s not a practical, comprehensive travel guide for the curious but the perfect introduction for the newly arrived or relocated expat, the academic doing prolonged field study, the new investor or diplomat and would be especially meaningful for long-time Indonesianists, 2nd and 3rd year university students enrolled in Southeast Asian and Indonesian language studies. A Geek in Indonesia: Discover the Land of Komodo Dragons, Balinese Healers and Dangdut Music by Tim Hannigan, Tuttle Publishing 2018, ISBN-978-080-484-7100, paperback, 144 pages, dimensions 20 cm x 25.5 cm.

Tim Hannigan was born in the coal mining town of Cornwall in the UK’s far west, the climactic, physical and cultural antithesis of his literary focus of Indonesia and Southeast Asia. His features, travel articles and images appear regularly in newspapers and magazines in Asia, the Middle East, North America and the UK. Hannigan has spent a good portion of his career co-editing travel guidebooks to destinations including Nepal, India, Myanmar and Bali before graduating to highly readable narrative histories of the region. His Raffles and the British Invasion of Java won the 2013 John Brooks Award, and he has edited and wrote new chapters for Willard Hanna’s classic history of Bali, now republished as A Brief History of Bali (Tuttle, 2016). But Geek in Indonesia is nothing like Hannigan’s previous works. As part of a series which began with A Geek in Japan in 2011, and which now also covers Thailand, Korea and China, Hannigan has written his very own version in the Geek series. The Geek concept encourages first-person address, idiosyncratic personal opinion and anecdotes, with no requirement to comply with some grating corporate house style. He was still able to do the fun stuff of guidebook writing - the chapters on history, food and culture - but without the brain-melting tasks of adding and re-checking hotel and restaurant listings. He was also free to cover whatever he liked to write about. So, in the same way that Hector Garcia devoted many pages of Geek in Japan to manga and anime, Hannigan is able to rhapsodizes about Indonesian dangdut pop music and sinetron soap operas to his heart’s content.
C/E/G-22 Nov. 17
Though not a guidebook, the “Indonesia at Play” chapter on travel offers useful advice: never go to a hill station on a weekend, always bring back from day trips or overseas trips oleholeh (souvenirs) for Indonesian friends, use the English-language travel blog Indo.hoy and the Wego metasearch engine to find off the beaten track adventures. Even as a travel guide, the book is quite adequate and serviceable. The brief but excellent “From T-Land to G-Land” is a pithy survey of Indonesia’s best surf spots in less than 300 words as is the masterly roundup Indonesia’s most popular volcanoes to climb. Don’t be deceived by the graphic novel appearance that disguises a work of deep scholarship, understanding, respect and great affection for the country. It’s in fact a mini illustrated encyclopedia of Indonesia’s cultural history. Hannigan, a firmly entrenched professional writer of the new millennium, possesses a natural affinity with a scrapbook-like layout using sidebars, highlighted text, multi images on each page and a mixture of typefaces of different colors and sizes. Turning the pages is akin to watching a slow-motion video. Space limitations required to condense the essence of a 5000-km-long nation inhabited by 260 million people into a 144-page book requires substantive editing. In the chapter on film “Tropical Celluloid Dreams,” the classic black & white era of early pre-war and postC/E/G-26 Sept. 18

Pick Up a Pizza! The Dining Room is a pleasant open bamboo rotunda in Candi Dasa. In front is an impressive wood fired pizza oven that really stands out [pictured]. Managed by the nearby Watergarden Hotel the restaurant displays all of the professionalism of that connection. It is a level above the usual warungs and cafes of that area.
Soups can be the Mediterranean Seafood Soup with shrimps, squid, baby clams, scallops and fish. All of which are poached in a white wine and tomato broth enhanced with fresh basil. Something different is the Soup of Pistou, a mix of red & green beans, celery, tomatoes and pasta blended with a tomato, basil, garlic and parmesan pesto. A vegetable soup that actually has a defining taste, not the usual blandness of nothing!
Many travelers, on their way through Candi Dasa, stop for a pizza! Over the past few years a number of different international chefs have had some input to the a la carte menu, and it now presents an interesting mix of cuisine. The Dining Room is on the site of the ill-fated Kedai, once the shining light of Candi Dasa, amazingly let slide into oblivion, empty and decaying for years. It is at the southern entrance to Candi Dasa, with views across to Nusa Penida. It was fully restored in similar style but far grander and classier than the original. Even though the new menu is impressive I am still drawn to some of the earlier menu dishes from the Middle East, always yearning for something different and appreciative when that option is provided. The Turkish Boreks [thin ‘yulka’ pastry] are filled with a mix of feta and parsley, a dip of yoghurt and mint on the side. They are light and crunchy, very good. Hummus with Khubz [wheat flour flat bread] is chicken pea puree flavored with tahini, olive oil & lemon, served with that Arabian flat bread. From the Mediterranean there are some refreshing starters. Bruschetta with Tomatoes & Basil are on toasted Ciabata bread which has been topped with diced & peeled tomatoes that were tossed in virgin olive oil, basil, garlic & balsamic. Potato Skins with Tzatziki Dip, roasted potato skins served with Tzatziki yoghurt-cucumber garlic dip and that favourite at all Spanish restaurants around the world, Garlic Prawns, simply deep-fried in olive oil, served with a garlic-corianderthyme & tomato concasse, accompanied with flour tortillas. The Lebanese Fattoush is a refreshing salad, romaine lettuce tossed with diced tomatoes, cucumber, onion, mint, parsley, za’atar spice [mainly oregano and thyme], lemon juice & chunks of dry roasted flat bread although I quite like the simple Breaded Bocconcini a semi-soft, white and rindless un-ripened mild cheese that was once made from water buffalo milk, a specialty of Naples. This unique cheese is melted slightly for this dish which makes it far more edible and the small rounds are dunked in crunchy breadcrumbs before deep-frying.
It is the main courses here that have changed the most of late. Although the great Turkish Tavuk Gogsu Sarmasi has survived, it is in za’atar & olive oil, the marinated chicken breast stuffed with saffron rice, cashew nut & currants, served on sautéed spinach and topped with a white wine tarragon sauce, accompanied with steamed rice.
covered with cream and flambéed in the oven and the Greek Ekmek, a moist rich cake made from shredded phyllo paste, custard and cream. However there are international deserts here too, a Crème Brulee [vanilla and pandan, a French/Asian mix], Chocolate Mousse and Apple Cake. All in all a rather amazing dining experience for Candi Dasa. A lunch or dinner at The Dining Room tops off a relaxing day trip to Candi! It also provides a good reason to stop, and relax, if passing through.
QUICK REVIEW Restaurant
: The Dining Room.
My main, almost every time, is the Moroccan Tangine. It is a rich chicken broth with chicken cubes, carrots, baby eggplant, spinach, olives, potatoes, zucchini, dried apricots, raisons, apples, cashew nuts & Ras el hanout spice [an incredible mix of spices, usually including cardamom, cumin, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, allspice, dry ginger, chili peppers, coriander seed, peppercorn, sweet and hot paprika, fenugreek, and dry turmeric, very Moroccan] the tangine is served in the traditional ceramic bowl. Excellent!

Chicken Parmigiana is now on the menu as is a very subtle Chicken Scallopine with Sage; the fillet is seasoned with clove, pepper and garlic then layered with sage, red pepper and ricotta cheese, rolled and cooked in a herb and tomato sauce. A recent French influence has seen Chateaubriand added to the menu, béarnaise sauce and all. There is also now a Bouillabaisse, that famous seafood stew from Marseilles.

The new international dishes include a selection of pies [beef, chicken and vegetarian] and all those standards necessary to cater for a tourist market that comes from all corners of the globe. Then there is the wood-fired pizza oven in its specialty position between the restaurant proper and the street-front, a round colourful building sitting almost like a mid eastern shrine, with a range of pizzas that includes all the standards plus a few specials; Mushroom, Cheese, Olives and Ham, the Chicken Supreme [chicken, spinach, sage, bell peppers, mozzarella – parmesan cheddar cheeses] or a Meat Fest [minced beef, chicken, ham, salami, mozzarella - cheddar & Parmesan cheese & mixed herbs] or The Dinning Room Special [bacon, baked onions, salami, mushrooms, thyme, cheddar & goats cheese]. Although I am a Pepperoni freak, can’t get enough of it, here the Pepperoni Feast is with red & green peppers, chilli flakes, baked onion, garlic and oregano…wonderful! The pizzas here are the way I like them, with plenty of topping such as the Neapolitan [pictured]. The dessert list retains a couple from the old menu; Turkish Om Ali, crumbled puff pastry sheets, layered with raisons, coconut, cashew nut and tossed with sweetened milk,

Update Cosmic Diners have become quite popular with Bali’s local younger set. Not surprising with their budget priced American style diner food and trendy décor. They are found in Sanur [Jln. ByPass Ngurrah Rai, southern end] with its unique train carriage dining room, Tuban [Lippo Mall, Jln Kartika] and at the original on Sunset Road. They have many interesting dishes that are unique to them, some of which have a touch of Asian to the base American diner menu. The latest are the great Nrw York style budget priced Rice Bowls. There are three of them, the Black Pepper Beef is shredded meat stir-fried in black pepper sauce topped with shavings of crisp onion. Pork Belly, double cooked in soy is another, sharing the bowl with a fried egg and sautéed corn kernels. Both are excellent but the Chicken version was perfect [pictured]! Chicken, as fish, so often overcooked in Bali, was tender and moist. The use of chicken thighs instead of the more common breast provided more taste, a light infusion with teriyaki sauce just right, with broccoli and carrots sprinkled with garlic chips. Great simple dishes! At the new Sanur location the train inside the restaurant proper [a replica of a classic train carriage] is proving to be a very popular meeting place and has already been the setting for thousands of photographs on social media.
Shima , Bali’s specialty Teppanyaki & Shabu-Shabu restaurant on Raya Petitenget [50 metres from LIO Square] is hosting a special charity night, Monday November 5 when 50% of the GROSS takings will go to the Sulawesi Tsunami Appeal, 6.00 to 11.00 p.m. Support a great cause and go for Teppanyaki that night.
Kopi & Kue is a pleasant little coffee shop on Jln. Kartika, in front of the Bali Garden Hotel. It features all day breakfasts that include all the egg options. There is even a gluten free Bread Basket as well as a variety of pancakes. Healthy salads can be Cranberry & Walnut or Roasted Beetroot and Avocado, Interesting sandwiches are the Pulled Pork, Pumpkin and Pesto or Chicken & Bacon with smashed avocado. Then for sharing there is a Mediterranean Board [hummus and avocado dips with prosciutto, salami, pitted kalamata olives, tomato, feta, and brie with toasted tortilla triangles], Duck & Plum Sauce on flat bread or Thai style Calamari [crumbed with lemon pepper]. And the best part, all are at budget prices. Secret Café on Jln. Siligita, Nusa Dua, is just that. It is a friendly little place that classifies their coffees as their specialty. It is very popular for breakfasts with the many who want to escape from the 5 star hotels for a change. They serve simple food, well prepared and very cheap. On offer are local and international dishes, even some Vegan dishes [Vegan Burger]. The place is hard to find but worth the effort.
Sizzle Wraps, on Jln. Padang Linjong, Canggu is Mexican with a touch of fusion. The Tostados can be chicken, pork, beef or vegetarian based with eggplant, lettuce, beans, corn, feta, guacamole, cheddar, sour cream and chipotie sauce added. The Fish Tacos use grilled Mahi-Mahi. The Carnitas [slow cooked pulled pork tacos] are also with lettuce, cheddar, guacamole, sour cream and chipotie. Here are many other Mex dishes and even some Italian Pizzas or are Pizzas now considered to be classified as an International dish anyway?
Ijen at Potato Head Beach Club, Kerobokan, is striving for zero waste across everything from food to drinks to design in a first for both Bali and Indonesia. Banana leaves instead of plastic, line-caught seafood, wood fire in place of gas. This is how the kitchen rolls at Ijen, the new “zero-waste philosophy” restaurant at Potato Head Beach Club. At Ijen plastics are processed into building bricks, green scraps are fed to local livestock and fish scales are the star ingredient in rice-flour crackers. As for the food, start with Rujak Mackeral with tamarillo and gooseberry or Squid Otak-otak with peanut sauce and sambal kecap, then the house special stuffed Whole Red Snapper or their Fillet in Banana Leaf with fish skin crackers and finish with a Red Dragon Fruit Sorbet with lime. Nook is another secret restaurant, this time on Umalas I, a pleasant garden café popular for breakfast and all day dining. How about a chilled Gazpacho Soup with bacon & egg, or a healthy Quinoa Salad with avocado, watermelon, kale, feta, lettuce, toasted almonds and a tangy vinaigrette. Raw Beetroot, Pear and Feta topped with sunflower seeds is another healthy option. Snack time can be Teriyaki glazed chicken wings with sesame or Calamari Rings. There are many local options; Beef Rendang, Udang Balado, Ayam Betutu or Ayam Kecap. The Sandwich & Burger list is very international, a classic Rueben, Double Cheeseburger [with spicy mushroom sauce], Cheese & Bacon, Ham & Cheese or a sweet smoky Beetroot Burger, and there are many things from the grill [steaks, prawns, fish]. All served with a smile.

180+ AUTHORS, ARTISTS AND ACTIVISTS DESCEND ON BALI FOR UWRF’S 15TH YEAR AS SOUTHEAST ASIA’S LEADING FESTIVAL OF WORDS AND IDEAS
Pudjiastuti, and former Foreign Minister, Marty Natalegawa, bestselling author Fatima Bhutto, and one of Italy’s most popular writers working today, Giuseppe Catozzella.
15 years ago, when Indonesia was suffering after the Bali bombing in 2002 and the lingering Asian financial crisis, the first Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (UWRF) drew tourists back to the island by showcasing the nation’s diverse beauty through literature and art. Since then, the UWRF has evolved into Indonesia’s biggest platform for its writers and artists, and one of the world’s best-loved literary events.
Audiences will hear how the #MeToo movement has impacted Asia; the region’s finest foreign correspondents will share their career-defining highs and lows; Indonesian writers will weigh in on what has and hasn’t changed during the 20 years since Reformasi was ushered in; and Balinese artists will examine their island after a century of tourism.
From Indonesia to Japan, Nigeria to Pakistan, Spain to Vietnam, more than 180 authors, artists and activists from across the archipelago and 30 other countries have converged in Ubud for the Festival’s milestone year. Over the next five days, the UWRF will deliver more than 200 events across 30 venues, spanning open-air panel discussions, in conversations, special events, live music, poetry slams, Indonesian film screenings, cultural tours, book launches, art exhibitions and more. The Main Program’s 70 one-on-one and panel discussions promise a world of extraordinary stories, diverse perspectives and deep dives into the region’s most pressing issues, from feminism to the environment, religion to freedom of expression, immigration to Indonesia’s 2019 presidential election. Featuring the Festival’s most acclaimed authors, awardwinning journalists and political mavericks, there in conversation series includes eminent British writer, Hanif Kureishi, twice Miles Franklin winner, Kim Scott, Australia’s former president of the Human Rights Commission, Gillian Triggs, celebrated author and essayist, Geoff Dyer, Indonesia’s Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Susi
A f t e r Indonesia’s r e c e n t devastating natural disasters in Lombok and Central Sulawesi, the Dealing w i t h Disasters panel will address what disaster risk reduction measures are urgently required, and, for those tragically affected, how these events can be processed and memorialized. As part of the Festival’s mission to support Indonesian communities, the UWRF has teamed up with local NGO IDEP Foundation to assist their emergency response programs in North Lombok and Central Sulawesi. Donation buckets will be placed at various points around the Festival, audiences can donate via the UWRF website, and hear from IDEP’s Director Ade Andreawan during the Dealing with Disaster Panel.

“The UWRF was started after an act of terrorism 15 years ago to support the Balinese community; this year it’s important we do our best to support North Lombok and Central Sulawesi,” commented Founder & Director Janet DeNeefe. “As we reflect on the last 15 years and on how the Festival has evolved, as we look back on all the meaningful exchanges that have been made between Indonesian and international writers and readers, there is one thing that is clear. Most visitors in the early days said they knew nothing about Indonesian writers, but this has now changed. People are now sitting up and taking notice,” DeNeefe continued. “One of the world’s biggest publishers, Penguin Random House, has just announced its expansion into Southeast Asia, meaning many more Indonesian writers will be read around the world. This heralds a new era for Indonesian fiction and nonfiction, and after 15 years of sharing Indonesian literature and culture with the world, we feel we’ve had an important role to play in that. I look forward to celebrating this exciting new era and our milestone year with you all over the next five days,” DeNeefe concluded.

“Traditional Thursday” A week ago, Bali’s new governor Wayan Koster issued a governor’s decree stipulating what I have translated as “Traditional Thursday”. He has declared that every Thursday all Hindus at government offices and schools must wear customary dress and speak Balinese (not quite sure how that is enforced). It so happened that on this day, Trash Hero Kertalangu (my wife is the leader of this chapter of Trash Hero) was invited to a meeting at a government office so we got to witness the implementation first hand. Our kids also had to wear traditional dress as my wife’s family is Balinese ‘Hindu’. C/Ho/I-24 Oct 18

What struck me was the speed of the implementation – I read about it in the newspaper a few days before, and then in the same week it happened – no questions asked, no comments, no complaints. I’m guessing because most Balinese are proud of being Balinese and proud of wearing traditional dress (this wasn’t the case about nine years ago when I took a large gamelan troupe overseas and they voted against wearing traditional dress on the plane). Being an environmentalist and being constantly shocked by the Balinese love affair with single-use plastic, this got me thinking: if we have Traditional Thursday, could the governor implement a “Tumbler Tuesday” or “Waste-free Wednesday” for example? He could declare one day of the week free from single-use plastic cups or bottles by forcing government offices and schools to make people bring their own tumblers every Tuesday, every Wednesday to not use any single-use plastic whatsoever. My feeling is that culturally this would be a lot harder and would receive immediate resistance, particularly from the lazy. The reason why enforcing people to wear traditional dress or even speaking Balinese one day a week is a lot easier is because it has cultural (and in Bali, therefore religious) identity, whereas caring for the environment or one’s health (plastic is after all a potentially toxic and therefore hazardous substance) does not. In this sense, improving the health of both Bali’s environment and therefore the health of the people of this island must be approached from a socio-religious angle if we want to create massive social change quickly with the least resistance possible.

A Sense of Place When I started packing to leave Singapore for Bali in 2000, my friends were confused and apprehensive. Why was I leaving their safe and orderly little nation for the chaos of Indonesia? The civil unrest, financial crisis and fall of Suharto in 1998 were still vivid memories in the region. Many of us had sheltered evacuees fleeing from the deadly riots in Jakarta. What was I thinking? I was thinking like an expatriate. The definition of an expatriate is someone who lives outside their native country. Thousands of us here in Bali have chosen this role, or perhaps it has chosen us. We’re living outside our countries by choice, and our perspectives are very different from those of our fellow nationals. Many of us plan to be here until we fall off our respective perches.
The soul of the family through the generations is in the family temple.
30 years. So I have quite a lot of time to get to know my new neighbours, and give them something fresh to gossip about.
We foreigners move at least several times in our lives, and some of us have lost count of the number of front door keys we’ve owned over a lifetime. Just as the Balinese consider it normal to stay in one place for their whole life, it’s standard operating procedure for us to change residences, cities and even countries.
To the Balinese I represent a group that is strange beyond imagining. Single, childless women are as rare as dragon’s teeth in this society. According to Indonesian law, people are officially geriatric at 60. Yet here we are, energetic and silver haired, refusing to act like old people. Even stranger, we’re not afraid to live alone. We take an incomprehensible interest in waste management, unpolished rice and stray dogs. We flit from house to house and banjar to banjar like wild birds. In fact, our eccentricities are endless.
I moved into my current house in Ubud in 2002, only the second foreigner/tamu to live on my street. I attended the temple on high holidays, contributed to the ogoh ogoh fund before each Nyepi and paid more than my share of road improvements and banjar events. I was tolerated in a friendly way but of course could never be anything but that strange foreign woman with all the dogs who lived behind the blue gateposts. I’ve never had any security issues in my banjar, which I put down to my noisy pack of rescued Bali dogs. It wasn’t until recently I learned that my housekeeper Wayan Manis has been murmuring for many years that I had supernatural powers and it was best not to mess with me. I don’t, but no one ever has, just in case. We’ve lost the early programming that kept us safely behind whatever version of the white picket fence we left behind
What makes an expatriate? Many of us started travelling to exotic lands when we were young; I was in Bali in 1969. We were seduced by different cultures, cuisines and even partners. Some came to start businesses or do good works, others to retire or fulfil long-held dreams to explore their creative potential. Whatever the circumstances, our reasons are our reasons. We’ve lost the early programming that kept us safely behind whatever version of the white picket fence we left behind. I was already an expatriate when I left Singapore for Bali, and have now been living out of Canada for almost half my life. To this day I can’t define my reasons. I’ve just returned from a month visiting the land of my birth and it is indeed a great country; I just don’t want to live there. My home is Bali, my roots are deep, this is my place now. Friends and relations in Canada can’t fathom it. Neither can the Balinese. The Balinese have a very strong sense of place. Anchored by their family temples and banjars, men stay in one place for generations. Daughters enter the family compounds of their husbands. Sons bring their wives to the father’s family compound when they marry, and so do their sons and grandsons. These days family compounds are sometimes overcrowded and some sons may build a house on family land elsewhere, but will always come back for ceremonies.
Neighbours were genial, except for one crooked old woman who consistently looked through me as if I was invisible. Perhaps I was, to her. Then a couple of years go I was outside my gate trimming the vines and saw her shuffle up the lane. I greeted her as always, expecting the usual rebuff. But this time she stopped and examined me lengthily from rheumy eyes. At last she declared, “Masih disini (You’re still here.)” After 15 years of observation she’d decided that perhaps I was indeed a permanent fixture in the neighbourhood, and worthy of recognition. Finally, I feel accepted on my street. The bapaks acknowledge me with a lift of the chin as they zoom past on their motorbikes. Kids greet me by name. I visit the little shop in my sarong to buy eggs without raising an eyebrow. And now that I’ve become rooted in the neighbourhood, I’m about to leave and start all over again. A 20 year lease feels like a very long time at the beginning. But the dimension of time seems to telescope as we get older, and I’m now just three short years from the end of my lease. Land prices have increased to the point where I can’t afford to stay downtown. So I’ll be moving out to a nearby village - dogs, parrots, hens, pigeons, turtles and all. I’ll be putting down roots for the last time; the next lease is
But it’s been getting more difficult to transplant ourselves here in Bali. Costs have spiralled and affordable housing is an ongoing challenge. Many of us on fixed incomes are staring down the barrel of an expiring lease in an increasingly expensive rental market. People are finding creative solutions. Sharing is becoming more popular. And a friend in downtown Ubud has started an interesting project which could be replicated elsewhere. She’s building seven pretty little houses as a small intentional community on 17 are of riverfront land. There’s a big swimming pool, community club house and shared laundry. It’s walking distance to central Ubud and pet-friendly. The concept is to create a community of like-minded people aged 55 and over who will own their leases and pay monthly maintenance. The houses are designed so they can be adapted to become more elder-friendly as tenants age. Yes, there are all kinds of management and governance issues to negotiate. But this is an imaginative pilot project that could provide an affordable housing solution for aging foreigners. We need less space and less stuff as time goes on, and friendly neighbours. Our sense of place may have a smaller footprint but our roots will still be deep in Bali.

Mouldy Mumblings Ever had a fridge you daren’t open? It hasn’t been cleaned out for a while and you can’t face those jars with the fetid contents you really don’t want to see, you shuffle around avoiding nasty things but then you open a mysterious plastic container to find a blue stilton that’s been there for two years…….. I have a wardrobe like that. You know the feeling, you get an invitation to a black tie do and you go rummaging through the “other” wardrobe, the one in the back room. You open the door and a waft of musty air hits you, holding your nose you skim through the coathangers, you find the dinner jacket and pull it out but, rather than a resplendent black, it’s a sort of blotchy green colour and smells worse than a camel’s nether regions. Mould (or for those who can’t afford the extra vowel, mold) is a common problem in houses across the world and especially in the tropics. When we talk of mould we should also think mildew. Mould and Mildew are fungi, they grow from spores, they feed on cellulose and they damage materials such as wood, paper, cardboard, cotton, rayon and leather. They need moisture and they like warmth and shade. There are two types of mildew. Powdery Mildew which starts white and turns to yellow, brown or black and Downy Mildew which starts yellow and turns brown. Moulds are different and can be more colourful than bogan vomit after 3 pizzas and two crates of Bintang, they come in red, blue, yellow, green, brown, grey, black or white and they grow thicker looking “lumpy” or even fluffy. There are thousands of types of moulds and, while some can be deadly poisonous, others can be useful, they make our cheese blue and gave us penicillin, the first antibiotic. Dangers Mildew is not a serious health hazard however it can cause headaches, difficulty breathing, sore throats and coughing. Mildew causes damage to plants and crops.
Moulds can be far more serious, some produce mycotoxins. In addition to the headaches and respiratory issues caused by mildew, different strains of mould can cause sneezing, watery and itchy eyes, depression, forgetfulness, rashes, allergic reactions, asthma, migraines, severe tiredness, inflammation of the joints and pneumonia. Moulds can cause structural damage to homes, particularly wood rot and damage to plasterboard, wallpaper, curtains, tablecloths, bedlinen, carpets and, of course clothes in wardrobes.
levels, however, it is difficult for an air conditioner to get your room much below a humidity of 50%. They are expensive to run. • Dehumidifiers (if you can find one) very effectively reduce humidity and are commonly used in places like Hong Kong. • Do NOT use evaporative air coolers, they increase the level of humidity in the air.
Danger to health comes from inhaling microscopic airborne reproductive spores.
Ventilation costs nothing and very effectively reduces the incidence of mildew and mould. Air flowing over wet surfaces evaporates moisture which is carried away in the draft, it is effective even if the air is itself is quite humid.
How to get rid of mould and mildew Clean off the mould and/or mildew then mix half a cup of bleach in 2 litres of water and use the solution to scrub the affected area, let it dry then repeat a further two times. Bleach is nasty stuff so use rubber gloves, ventilate the area and use face masks. Do not get bleach on your skin or in your eyes. How to avoid mould and mildew in your home Spores float around in the air all the time so if you already have some cellulose around, a bit of humidity can cause the growth of mildew or mould.
3 Ventilation.
• Have effective ventilation and air circulation incorporated into your house design. • Regularly open your house windows and doors to let drafts blow through. • Leave your wardrobe door open from time to time and hang the clothes with spaces between them. • Install ceiling fans. • Install exhaust fans. Finally do not apply paint to mouldy surfaces, it will not stick and is likely to peel. Remove the mould and dry the surfaces before painting. Use a good quality paint with an anti fungal additive.
The most effective way of preventing the growth of mould is to reduce the humidity. You can do this in three ways: 1 Keep your house dry. • Bathrooms, kitchens and laundries are wet areas, keep them dry and well ventilated with doors to separate them from living areas. • Stop roof leaks, damp walls and rising damp through walls and floors. • Ventilate rooms after the floors have been mopped. 2 Use air conditioners or dehumidifiers. • Air conditioners are very effective at lowering humidity

32 The Best Climate Change Info Sites Climate change has been all over the news lately. Climate scientists, concerned that governments globally are either not doing enough to lower fossil fuel emissions and stop the warming trend, or are completely ignoring the urgent message and allowing emissions to continue to climb to dangerous levels, released a stern warning last week that the world needs to either embrace strong measures to lower emissions, or watch the world plunge into regular extreme weather events, rising sea levels and soaring summer temperatures.
Society offers science news on a broad range of topics, as well as a school science magazine for students to promote STEM (Science Technology Engineering Math) learning.
Apart from reading headlines or brief articles in news media from all over the world, where can you turn for more in-depth information? Or, if you want to learn more about the human consequences of climate change, where can you turn online to find reliable sources?
Website: www.sciencenews.org
Here’s a list of seven popular and informative sites that offer the latest scientific research on climate change: The National Aeronautic and Space Administration The National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) is the main US federal agency responsible for climate research. The Global Climate Change website provides accurate and up-to-date news and information about the Earth’s climate and how it is changing. Down Side: Given the current US GOP administration’s resistance to the science of climate change, the information can sometimes be toned down. Up Side: The site provides a lot of visualised date, in the form of charts and graphs, making the science easier to understand. In addition, the NASA team puts together short videos explaining challenges and solutions involved with the complex subject of climate change. The visuals and photos clearly help to show the extend of the problem. Website: climate.nasa.gov The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is an international group, set up in 1988, by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) to offer an impartial platform to assess the science behind climate change, how it will impact the planet now and into the future, and offer options for how countries can adapt to climate change and reduce the effects. This means that all levels of government have access to information to determine climate-related policies and actions. The IPCC remains neutral; while the panel gives information on future climate effects, risks and possible responses, it does not directly advise governments on how they should act. IPCC assessments and reports are written, edited and reviewed by hundreds of leading scientific experts who volunteer their time, so there is no possible financial conflict of interest. The Down Side: Reports are technical and can make for heavy reading. The Up Side: All the cutting edge science and research is here. Website: www.ipcc.ch Inside Climate News Inside Climate News is a non-profit, non-partisan news site dedicated to covering climate change, energy issues and the environment. The site regularly wins major journalism, investigative and environmental awards, including the Pulitzer Prize for national reporting. The Down Side: None, just great science writing and articles are free to read. The Up Side: The website is easy to navigate and search for specific topics, writing is standard journalistic style. Website: insideclimatenews.org
Down Side: Articles tend to be shorter, with less depth. Up Side: You can read their articles for free. If you want to support the cost of producing scientific journalism, Science News is a bargain at $25 per year for a digital subscription.
New Scientist Magazine New Scientist is the world’s most popular science and technology magazine. Founded in 1956, the magazine is now published weekly and available in a digital version for reading on mobile devices.

World Bank offers up to $1.4 billion to help Indonesia boost disaster preparedness, recovery
The World Bank will offer quake-stricken Indonesia up to US$1 billion (S$1.37 billion) in funding to boost disaster preparedness and recovery. The money will go towards helping the country shore up its resilience, as well as to support relief and reconstruction efforts in Lombok and Central Sulawesi, where communities are still picking up the pieces after a recent series of deadly disasters left thousands dead and displaced scores more. Funds will be made available when requested by the Indonesian government, said the World Bank in a statement on Sunday (Oct 14), as a marathon week of annual meetings in Bali by the organisation and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) drew to a close. Of the US$1 billion, US$5 million will be set aside for technical assistance to help with recovery and reconstruction planning. The World Bank, in its statement, outlined some other possible aid options for which the remaining funds could be used, including the strengthening of monitoring and early warning systems, as well as an emergency recovery programme for the rebuilding of critical public facilities and infrastructure, such as hospitals, schools, roads, and water supply systems. The money could go towards cash transfers to the 150,000 poorest families affected by disasters as well, a move aimed at helping disaster survivors get back on their feet by supporting employment and the local economy during the recovery period.
was launched at the meetings, and prominent figures such as IMF chief Christine Lagarde and United Nations secretary-general Antonio Guterres visited Palu and Lombok as well. Indonesia’s Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati said: “The government appreciates the attention and support of the international community in our time of need, including from the World Bank Group. “Restoring lives and livelihoods of the people affected by natural disasters is the government’s utmost priority.” [The Straits Times October 14, 2018]
Bali beauty pageant forced to cancel under pressure from anti-LGBT groups A Bali beauty pageant promoting HIV education and equality has been called off after mounting pressure from hardline anti-LGBT groups. The event, organized by Yayasan Gaya Dewata - a Denpasar-based Indonesian NGO focusing on HIV/AIDS education, prevention and support-was originally set for Oct. 10. But intolerant groups took to the internet to harass the event’s venue, the Bhumiku Convention Hall in Denpasar, ultimately coercing it into canceling their agreement to host the event. “Online groups harassed and threatened the venue for the event until they were forced to withdraw their support,” a source within YGD, who wished to remain anonymous, told Coconuts Bali on Oct. 15. “This constitutes an unpredicted attempt by extremist anti-LGBT groups to influence events in Bali,” he added.
The World Bank also conducted a preliminary damage report to assess the cost of property and infrastructure impacted by the disaster in Central Sulawesi. Its estimate was US$531 million - a figure that excludes loss of life, lost land and disruption to the economy. World Bank chief executive officer Kristalina Georgieva, who visited Palu in Central Sulawesi with Indonesia’s Vice-President Jusuf Kalla last Friday, said: “The government’s immediate relief efforts are robust and impressive. “As we enter the reconstruction period, we are making up to US$1 billion of comprehensive support available for Indonesia. The best memorial for those who lost their lives is to build back better.”
Although nominally a beauty pageant, contestants had to show training and knowledge in sexual health and HIV issues to appear in the finals at the now cancelled event. Twenty-four contestants narrowed down from 80 applicants, all Indonesian, had been set to compete to take the crowns in separate Mr and Miss categories through talent performances and a drag show. “The event is an important part of the YGD’s HIV prevention efforts, education the community and allowing us to spread our message of HIV prevention and sexual health empowerment to members of the Bali Community.”
Central Sulawesi was rocked by a 7.4-magnitude tremor that triggered a powerful tsunami last month. This came on the heels of a series of quakes that jolted Lombok and Bali. Indonesia sits on the Pacific Ring of Fire, making it vulnerable to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Just last Thursday, a 6.3-magnitude earthquake off East Java province and Bali rattled some hotels where delegates of the IMF-World Bank meetings were housed. Indonesia’s resilience in the face of disaster was praised at the meetings, which, amid spirited discussions on trade and economic matters, also shone the spotlight on pressing concerns such as disaster financing and tackling famines. A fund-raising appeal to participants
Indonesia seems to be experiencing regressing societal attitudes towards the LGBT community in recent years. Although gay sex is not illegal in Indonesia (except in Aceh province, which has special autonomy to enact sharia-based laws), many within Indonesia’s LGBT community say they are terrified by the virulent homophobia espoused by religious leaders and government officials. But prior to this flare-up, Bali has generally not experienced the same LGBT panic as the rest of the country, partly due to its Hindu social norms and identity as a tourist island, allowing its openly gay nightlife to carry on. [Coconuts Bali October 15, 2018]
SITA to deploy smart technologies across Indonesian airports IT and telecommunication services provider SITA has been selected by PT Angkasa Pura I Persero (AP1) to provide technology to help manage the growing number of flyers arriving in the country. SITA is offering AirportConnect Open to AP1. This common-use platform allows airlines to manage their operations easily at AP1’s 13 airports, including at two of Indonesia’s busiest airports Denpasar (Bali) and Surabaya. Additionally, the platform will support the launch of SITA’s self-service check-in kiosks, bag-drop and boarding gates and SITA ControlBridge, which integrates the command and control capability of an airport. PT Angkasa Pura I Persero business development director Sardjono Jhony Tjitrokusumo said: “SITA has been a trusted partner to AP1 to help transform our two airports, I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport (Denpasar) in Bali and Juanda International Airport in Surabaya, East Java, to be among the most advanced in Indonesia today. With more than 110 million passengers last year, Indonesia emerged as the biggest aviation market in Southeast Asia. It is likely to become one of the top four markets globally with a forecasted 355 million travellers by 2036. [Airport Technology October 15, 2018] Bali remembers victims of 2002 terrorist bombings On the Indonesian island of Bali, people have remembered victims of the 2002 terrorist bombings that killed 202 people, including foreign tourists. Friday marked 16 years since members of an Islamic extremist group detonated bombs in a busy district on the island. Relatives of the victims and local government officials took part in Friday’s memorial service. They offered prayers, laid flowers and lit candles in front of a cenotaph erected at the site of the bombings. The mourners included family members of a Japanese couple, Kosuke Suzuki and his wife, Yuka, who were killed in the attack. Kosuke’s mother said she thinks the best way to show how she loves her son was to come to Bali, a place the couple loved. She said she wants many people to share the pain of the victims so that such terrorist attacks will never happen again. In May, suicide bombings on Indonesia’s second largest city of Surabaya killed 20 people, including the attackers, who were members of a group sympathetic to the Islamic State militant group. Indonesian authorities have been increasingly cracking down on extremists groups across the country. [NHK World – Japan October 13, 2018] Balinese government passes laws making Balinese dress and language compulsory at particular times and circumstances Beritabali.com reports that the Provincial Government of Bali has mandated that Balinese dress and Balinese language be made de riguer in Government offices on every Thursday beginning October 11, 2018; every full moon; every new moon (Hari Tilem); every anniversary of the Province’s founding; and every anniversary of a Balinese regency or municipality. The language and dress requirements were announced on Tuesday, October 2, 2018, via Gubernatorial decree No. 79 of 2018 on the use of Balinese dress and Gubernatorial decree No. 80 of 2018 about the preservation and protection of Balinese language, writing and literature issued by Governor Wayan Koster. In the future, the mandatory use of Balinese will, however, be exempted at government flag raising ceremonies; activities that are both national and international in nature; activities that include agencies from Jakarta; activities that include several provinces; and activities with elements participating from outside Bali. The Governor also said that going forward a “Balinese Language Month” will be established in the Province. The meeting that was attended by the Deputy Governor, the Regents and Mayors from across Bali, and the Hindu High Council (PHDI Bali) also agreed to go ahead with plans to use Balinese script in all areas across Bali starting on October 5, 2018. The decree states that the names of Government offices and public facilities will be displayed in Balinese script above the same name in Latin script. Also included in the places for Balinese script signage is Bali’s Ngurah Rai Airport, the Governor’s office, the Bali House of Representatives (DPRD-Bali), Government Hospitals, monuments, and main roadways.

San Francisco-based vegan burger chain Veganburg announces Indonesian expansion plans Burger-lovers in South East Asia will soon have something to celebrate. The fast-casual restaurant chain VeganBurg, specializing in plant-based comfort food, is set to expand to Indonesia and beyond. When it launched in 2010, VeganBurg became the world’s first plant-based burger joint. Since then, it has been busy breaking stereotypes surrounding fast food and veganism alike. Its menu is entirely plant-based, but not lacking in flavour or fun; a selection of hot dogs, burgers, soups, salads, and desserts is on offer. The company often gets creative with its dishes, like its seaweed fries and all-vegan sunny-side-up egg. VeganBurg has four locations across Singapore, with another in San Francisco, California. The new announcement brings plans to spread across South East Asia, with its sights set foremost on Jakarta and Bali. [LiveKindly October 5, 2018] Passengers evacuated from burning tour bus on Bali toll road A smoking bus caused a scene on Bali’s Mandara Toll Road on Wednesday, as passengers had to be evacuated from the burning vehicle in the middle of the road. Coming from the Nusa Dua direction, the bus suddenly experienced problems with its engine, which then triggered a fire. PT Jasamarga Bali Tol spokesperson Putu Gandhi Ginatra confirmed the incident. “It happened at 6:50am. The Mercy bus number B 7235 XA was carrying foreign passengers. Initially, the bus was coming from the direction of Nusa Dua, but before reaching the toll gate, the bus experienced engine problems. After awhile, the bus emitted thick smoke from the engine,” Gandi told Bali Post. The bus driver pulled the vehicle over to try and prevent congestion and the foreign tourist passengers were made to get out. A joint squad of police and military officers went to the location when they saw the incident. Eventually, the fire department arrived and put out the fire. “After successfully extinguishing it, the bus was taken and secured at the Jasmarga Bali Toll (property),” Gandi said.

Rumah Sanur: One Stop Access to Local Creative Scene A great way to find out what’s new and exciting from local and other Indonesian artists and creatives, is to visit the creative hub Rumah Sanur and just see what’s on their bulletin board. Better still, belly up to the counter at the on-site Kedai Kopi Kultur, order an espresso from sustainably grown beans (from Bali, Borneo, or other islands) and ask a fellow denizen for the latest news in the arts scene. Rumah Sanur – Creative Hub was founded in 2015 by Ayip Budiman, Roberto Aria Putra and William Sutiyoso as a space to serve the local creative community, small businesses, social entrepreneurs, traders, start-ups, artists and designers. The group’s vision is to bring talented people together, nurture creativity, encourage social innovation, and facilitate knowledge sharing.
events and open spaces, but also hosts workshops and works actively for community connections, which can happen just by visiting. With a coworking space, the facilities and activities are often exclusive to members.
The place is a visual treat, thanks to the staff’s design experience. Salvaged shipping yard materials have been upcycled into furniture and décor. Art-filled, shaded spaces lull visitors into casual comfort. There’s an equipped stage, a boutique of the latest Indonesian-made crafts, a full bar, courtyards (one is under the shade of a magnificent kapok), wheelchair-accessible facilities, a screening room, and rooms for seminars and workshops. The whole place will hold at least 400 (as for a recent earthquake fundraiser), and it can be hired out for private functions. International Curator Summa Durie answers my questions here. Creative talents of Bali have answered the call to establish spaces like Rumah Sanur, Kulidan Kitchen and Taman Baca Kesiman in service to artists’ communities. How do these differ from most coworking spaces? A creative hub like Rumah Sanur gives access to free
exhibition here on November 1, running through the 8th. Alliance Française collaborates here with an exhibition on plastic in November and December. We’ve just closed our call for submissions to Masaboca, our exciting boot camp for young designers happening here in November. They will learn more about design process, production, business plans, and branding. Their products will be seen here in December.
We enjoy collaborations with organizations across the island. In our Rumah Sanur Turns Three celebrations, we hosted a talk with Kulidan Kitchen Space and Taman Baca Kesiman about this world of creative spaces in Bali. We’ve also partnered with CushCush Gallery for the DenPasar 2018 exhibition and movement by providing Open Studio space for several notable artists. Rumah Sanur is really a space for Indonesian creatives to exhibit, perform, share ideas, have a design incubator. We focus on businesses with a social conscience such as To~ko Concept Store which stocks locally made and owned goods from Indonesian entrepreneurs and designers, or Kopi Kultur which connects a network of farmers. Long term programs are important. One is the Wake Wadho, our partnership with Kopikkon and BEKRAF (Indonesian Creative Economy Agency) that nurtures collaboration between designers and artisans in Middle Flores.
In the 3 years since Rumah Sanur opened, 1,000+ events have been held, and the space has grown from a sharedspace for creatives to a center for international and local communities to interact and expand their reach. Nightly music is a steady draw, and now annual events like the Minikino film fest make Rumah Sanur their public venue.

Knowledge sharing sessions are often free, such as a plastic-to-fuel demonstration, or a crowdfunding how-to, given by Berliner Pablo Ientile, who showed his illustrations from his crowdfunded book. What innovation has Rumah Sanur brought to Bali? On the international stage, Rumah Sanur has been an exhibitor at Chiang Mai Design Week since 2016. Overall, we have featured more than 10 Indonesian brands and designers. Last year we took bamboo products from designers across Indonesia to display. This reflects our commitment to fostering Indonesian creative talent and providing a space to showcase arts and design on international stages. We’re proud that in 2017, through a BEKRAF grant, we became the first diffability-accessible creative space in Bali. We undertook a significant project, adding purposebuilt ramps, toilets and parking facilities to allow access for people with diffabilities. Since finishing this project, we’ve partnered with Puspadi Bali (puspadibali.org) to send us interns and further opened access to creative facilities to people with diffabilities. What’s ahead? Open Studios (part of Denpasar 2018) runs into November, with artist Tri (of Uncle Joy street art) working through 28 October. Gregory Jansen (aka Gracka), tattoo artist and printmaker, will be on site from 29 October to 4 November. Experimental artists Komunitas Tepi Barat opens an
Rumah Sanur always offers closed meeting rooms for a low hourly rate, virtual offices and office spaces at an annual rate. Our on-site partners Teras Gandum and Kopi Kultur can cater refreshments. The nightly music in the front courtyard is free but it can often get busy, so we suggest reserving a table via email service@rumahsanur. com It’s always free to browse the exhibitions and installations.
