STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE SEPTEMBER 30 - OCTOBER 14, 2015

This fortnight that starts directly after the Full Moon Eclipse, feels more like an integrative phase leading us into the next New Moon on 13th October. Remember that we are in Mercury retrograde and it moves forward just before this New Moon and connects once more with the Moon’s Nodes. There are some important meetings taking place that will lead each of us into this next cycle of relationship healing. The Libra theme is all about fairness and equality, beauty, harmony and a peaceful resolve. Key people in your life will have some important news to share with you. Venus moves into the sign of Virgo this fortnight and remember she has a rendezvous with Mars, her masculine counterpart at the beginning of November. On the New Moon Mars and Jupiter are conjoined in the sign of Virgo as well and will create a harmonious trine to Pluto in the mid degrees of Capricorn. This is the time to take practical action and to implement some longer range goals/plans for yourself and in particular regarding your work, health and financial affairs. The Sun and Moon are opposite Uranus and bring an unstable playing field and as much as we would like to keep all our ducks in a row, it won’t be easily achieved. Through your daily interaction with others you may need to modify your plans and ideas often. Avoid procrastination wherever possible and take action based on discernment. We have the potential to achieve our deeper aspirations if we’re willing to do the work. NEW MOON 19 Libra 20 October 13, 2015 8.06 a.m.

The relationship theme continues to be strong for you Aries natives and this New Moon will really polarise the need for radical personal experiences and emotional communicative exchange both. Old partnership themes or actual people may revisit your life to bring the opportunity for healing. You are ready to work and it brings a focus for you that will help ground you and the chaos that abounds within your personal relationships. Energy is plentiful if you care to harness it and your health would also benefit from some more direct application of what you know to be good for you. Any foreign business dealings from the past may make a return. It looks like a bit of good fortune is coming your way in regards to any planned activity that brings a sense of fun. It could involve travelling, study for career advancement or teaching children. You have a more conservative edge to your appearance and relationships become an important part of your everyday experience involving a lot of communication and the sharing of ideas. Many will make important new contacts now and they will affect deeply the way that you think about yourself. Transformation runs very deep for you, with the possibility of past life memories arising. When the more ethereal world meets the 3D reality confusion can be the result. This next New Moon is all about romance and children, creativity and your personal presentation. You may want to give yourself a makeover in one form or another or beautify your living or work environment. Speaking of the home and family you are ready to do some work, whether it involves renovations, building or your own deep inner transformational voyage. Parental concerns or your own parenting could well be the catalyst for the necessary changes. For those with a new family member arriving now, there will be an exceptionally deep bond and close connection to the little one for you. Sudden disruptions to your harmony will come through community based activities. It’s a balancing act between your career and your home life and the time you share intimately with those closest to you. Although your work may bring a familiar sense of achievement through action, your relationships are taking you on the next part of your soul’s journey and growth through directly relating and communicating. This could be the time where you cut down on your business involvement by redirecting yourself through a media outlet. You may also want to look at business partnerships and streamline things in a more favourable and practical way. Your mental capacities are finely tuned and as you open up to assistance, you will achieve more. If you put your mind to it and create for yourself a reasonable schedule, you will achieve much through your work at this time. This also goes for your health which will benefit greatly from applying any wellness or exercise regimes that will bring about a purge and a transformation to your physical and mental well-being. The New Moon, Sun and the Karmic Node all portend a time of balanced and fair communication within your closest relationships. Some inspirational ideas may come through as you share with others and them with you, bringing unexpected outcomes to old thinking in relationship. This includes communicative patterns of behaviour as well. Growth through love and intimacy seems to be the order of the day for you this October. When you share your values and your balanced thoughts with others in your verbal communication you act as a catalyst for transformation both within your own life and that of those close to you. You will need to let go of past associations and commit to the new in your life. Cutting deep emotional bonds to the past frees you up for the next relationship. Strength is welling up from within and you will claim what is truly yours and be seen as a powerful person who is willing to be acknowledged.

There may the necessity to hide your love life for the time being or to keep your feelings under wrap as you move through the stages of evolution that are a part of a new beginning. Others will simply want to get their mind in some sort of order to give them a firmer foundation from which to move from. You may have a stronger than normal desire to understand the psychology of the mind or to investigate physic anomalies. Relationships prove to be a bit chaotic as you hover between the need for self motivation and bouncing ideas off others. Inspiration does often appear through the mouths of those closest to us. If you have the courage to speak up and be an authority during this time you will find fulfilment through your work in the community, in groups or with friends. In fact there is a lot of personal growth that will change your very standing in the World if you harness the power available now and put it to good use, rather than satisfying your ego. If there is any deception within your personal relationships whether they be business or love, from you or the other, then they are bound to be exposed this month. Any work or health related issues from the past will arise to be brought to the light. As an unbounded person generally speaking, these next few weeks could prove to be a little challenging as you are called to be a role model of stability and organization. If you choose to use this time to better your financial standing things will flow smoothly for you. The friendships that you value within your community are becoming more solid as you release the need to confront the past mistakes. Old grievances dissolve through understanding, communication and a sense of forgiveness which itself creates harmony. There is still the potential of surprise announcements from your children or the possibility of a sudden romantic encounter to sweep you off your feet. Any travel plans you have may be instigated this month and if they are for romantic meetings then they will prove to be successful. You are particularly grounded and working with your mental faculties to your own personal benefit. Vocational connections or meetings with those people who will support your career advancement are possible through October. The other good news is the possibility of sudden changes for the better to your home and this may be because of these new relationships. Cutting ties with early childhood trauma or abandonment issues will help to open you up to the new experiences and people entering your life, so releasing old partnerships, paramount.

If your personal relationships involve foreigners then you may have some communication glitches which prove entertaining and compel you to open or broaden your perspective on these partnerships. This is the time to go over the details and to make sure that you have investigated with a fine tooth comb all the information. You may be catapulted into parts of your mind that require deeply concentrated focus. If you discover manipulation or deceit then take a stance and make your values known. It could be a time of travel and if so, key meetings will take place along the way; meetings that inspire a strong sense of camaraderie. There are definitive new relationships in the winds if not already in the works for the Pisces native. They influence your sense of community and friendships within them. You feel the deepening and willingness for commitment within your personal and business partnerships and they may yet still, bring some unexpected gifts in a very tangible way. As your value system continues to be remodelled and transformed you find it reflects in your career and vocational choices, although at times it is difficult to see clearly from the depths of metamorphosis. Your financial acquisitions continue to go through flux although much support comes through others and particularly so this month.

It’s What’s Inside That Counts

in ‘real life’ events and challenges and work efforts in the community. As the official charity of the Miss Bali Tropix 2015 competition, Solemen Indonesia invited the contestants to join in meeting and assisting the children and Solemen community with this month’s fun day at Pepper’s Seminyak. The contestants were keen to spend time with Solemen children to learn about their disabilities and how they can help. At the start it was an emotional sight where most of the beauty queens shed some silent tears, recomposed themselves and returned to the scene again.

Tuesday 15th September was an outstanding fun day at Peppers Seminyak shared with ten ﬁnalists from the Miss Bali Tropix competition. These lovely ladies are the front runners in the island’s annual search for the most beautiful women of Bali. But it’s not just what’s on the outside that’s important in this competition, Miss Bali Tropix is also chosen for their personality along with their achievements

The ladies happily entertained the children, sharing time with them in the pool, splashing and swimming about which brought absolute glee to their faces, encouraging so much laughter. Peppers Seminyak put on a wonderful lunch for everyone, the feast ﬁnished off with a delectable mixture of Gelato Secrets ice cream! One of Solemen’s super supporters Jan Harvey shared in the wonderful event, spending time with all the children, helping with feeding them and making sure they were warm after their refreshing swim. Just before the event

“Love Our Earth” - from Indonesia to the World On Thursday, August 27th, invited guests at Seminyak’s, The Parlour Restaurant were privy to the launch of ‘Love Our Earth’ - a label pioneered and developed by 47 teens residing at Widhya Asih in Dalung. Products under this label include items such as board shorts, a ladies’ wraparound skirt, and an awesome beach towel - each crafted as part of the Stella’s Child Entrepreneurship Program in collaboration with the Widhya Asih Foundation in Bali. This Entrepreneurship is a 12 month learning program for children to recognise their personal capabilities and potentials, undertake self-reﬂection, as well as acting as a vehicle to identify opportunities that will ultimately assist in breaking the cycle of poverty. The emphasis of the program is on creative thinking, problem solving, product development and innovation, marketing, communication, sustainability and business ethics. It is designed to enable participants to become lifelong learners, grow their skills, and prepare them to enter the job market. In order to create the Love Our Earth brand, the children formed a ‘corporation’ including a management team, all comprising children from Widhya Asih Foundation. Four different divisions form the company: Marketing, Sales, Product Design and Public Relations. Under guidance

30 September - 14 October, 2015

was over, one of the beautiful contestants from Miss Bali Tropix delivered a personalised gift she had put together the night before especially for the children which consisted of crayons and pictures to colour. Solemen Indonesia would like to take this opportunity to thank Peppers Seminyak for organizing this event so quickly and effortlessly, Gelato Secrets for donating delicious ice cream for the afternoon and also Jan Harvey for sharing her love with Solemen’s children. A special shout out also goes to Mtrans, courtesy of KCB Travels for supplying their 21 seater luxury bus whenever Solemen require assistance with transporting children and families. A fantastic day for all involved and the ten contestants who joined in the fun of the day were shining examples of Miss Bali Tropix philosophy that “anyone can create beautiful packaging but it’s what’s inside that counts!” We look forward to hearing more about the recent Miss Bali Tropix official gala dinner “Ties and Tiaras” benefiting Solemen Indonesia, held at the Trans Hotel on Saturday September 26th. www.missbalitropix.com www.solemen.org Delicious free flow canapés from The Parlour Restaurant were accompanied by wines from Plaga to create a magical fusion of flavours throughout the night along with music by Metis Resident DJ, Kid Chriz. Stella’s Child would like to thank the many supporters of the silent auction and raffle where guests took away prizes including villa and hotel accommodations, spa packages, and restaurant and shop vouchers - the bounty up for bid comprising total value of Rp110 million! Barbara Mackenzie, President of the Rotary Club of Bali – Seminyak commented,

from experts, the children collaborated to develop the brand and product-line. They conducted market analysis, developed a sales strategy, learned about production, distribution and ﬁnance. At the Gala Launch Event, Love Our Earth was proudly presented to more than 200 guests. Complementing the evening was a performance of Michael Jackson’s ‘Earth Song’ by the children’s choirs, as well as a fashion show and dance performance, both of which were also orchestrated and produced by the children in the program.

“WOW! What a brilliant evening. I was seriously blown away by what these young entrepreneurs did. I think of my own children and their success that was achieved partially from the socioeconomic and scholastic advantages that they had; what these children have achieved as a result of your program, despite their life challenges, is amazing! I really am in awe of them and your program. Congratulations!” The Entrepreneurship Program has been available to the children of Widhya Asih Foundation since 2013.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

WHAT IS THE LEAST RISKY INVESTMENT THAT WILL PROVIDE A STEADY INCOME? This is an actual question from a reader recently but one that is frequently asked in one form or another. In fact this is the financial Holy Grail that all serious long term investors are seeking. We would all like to count on a steady risk-free income but does such a thing exist? Much depends also on what we mean by ‘steady’. If your main concern is to protect your capital then a bank deposit should accomplish that but the ‘steady’ income might be close to zero! Unless of course you simply draw down your capital until it is exhausted. But I don’t think that is what the reader had in mind. There is no such thing as a completely risk-free investment. In reality there is a spectrum ranging from very low risk, such as a deposit in a major international bank to very high risk such as ‘frontier’ (very new) emerging markets, private equity or investing in one’s own business. Even within asset classes there is a wide range of risks. Bonds for example can be very safe if they are issued by the US or UK government or other stable countries and very risky if they are issued by speculative entities to raise cash. Stock markets vary considerably in risk, the recent crash in the Chinese market being an example of the higher end. Even time is a factor; investing in stocks for a few days is very risky whilst taking a ten year or longer view is relatively low risk. Property investment as a source of income This is an important asset class but one that also carries risks. On the plus side there is a regular income from the property and the potential for capital gain. Certainly many expats in Bali have done very well in this area. But there are clouds on the horizon and there are numerous risks so anyone who relies entirely on this asset class to make a living would be wise to look at options to diversify. This is the hard bit when you consider the low rates of interest in hard currencies, the recent fall of the Rupiah and turmoil in global stock markets since early August. So if most of your eggs are in the local property basket and you are looking for alternative ways of getting income from investments where do you start? Building up a cash ‘war-chest’ is the first stage Having great wealth in terms of assets is fine but if there is no cash to pay the bills and for contingencies you could be in trouble. Falling into the hands of money lenders or building up a large credit card debt at outrageous rates is a recipe for disaster. Cash in the bank will not produce a real return and where USD and GBP are concerned you will get little or no actual return. A deposit in Euro or Swiss Francs could even attract a negative return so you will be paying the bank to look after your money! Nevertheless, having ample liquidity is still essential and a prerequisite to investing. To this end the banks play an essential role. So assuming you have ample cash in place, let’s continue the search for a ‘steady’ income. Bonds, stocks and commodities If you want to preserve capital and still earn income you could consider the direct purchase of government bonds. USD bonds (treasuries) or UK bonds (gilts) will pay around 2% per annum for the duration of the bond. At the end of the term you get your money back. About as risk-free as you can get. But if you want to access the capital before the bond matures you are likely to get back less than you invested since the capital values will fall as prevailing interest rates rise, which is highly likely in the coming months and years. Indonesian bonds are currently paying over 9% but you have to also take into account currency risk. There are plenty of ‘guaranteed’ or ‘protected’ financial products on the market offering higher returns but it is important to understand the underlying risks. A basic principle in finance is that the higher the return, the higher the risk.

Right now, the stock markets are very much out of favour after weeks of falls and high volatility. Yet history has shown time and time again that good profits can be made by investing at such times as these. Many stocks pay regular dividends that are higher than bond returns. This is one way to derive an income although capital values can fall as well as rise. A number of managed funds specialise in this type of stock. Gold pays no interest at all but can surge in capital value in times of severe economic or political stress. Since gold does not generate an income it does not meet the requirement of the reader but having a small exposure to the metal and other commodities, all possible via mutual funds, would provide potential for future capital gains. It is from those gains that an income can be drawn but how much and when is impossible to predict.

Annuities An annuity is a product where you pay a lump sum to an insurance company and it will then pay you a fixed income. This is a pretty safe bet if you use a well-established institution in a well regulated jurisdiction. In the US annuities can be for fixed periods and variable but in the UK an annuity is generally for life. The problem is that annuity rates are currently very low because they are invariably linked to prevailing bond rates. A UK annuity dies with you unless you have opted for a lower initial rate and a partial pension for your surviving spouse. After the death of the spouse there is nothing left for your estate. It could be an option for you later on and up to a maximum age of 75, especially if interest rates have increased by then. Today if you were 65 an annuity in GBP would pay you in the region of 4% per annum of the amount invested. If you are a smoker or in poor health you may be offered a higher rate, the opposite of what you would expect with life assurance. Conclusion and ideal scenario So there you have it. There is no clear winner. There are indeed options for steady returns with low risk, but the returns are not terribly attractive and some come with strings attached. Until interest rates rise and markets produce better returns we should adjust our expectations accordingly. To achieve long term financial objectives could mean simply spending less and saving more. Regular savings plans offer a way to get volatility to work in your favour, but they must be maintained for at least ten years to be effective. For returns higher than those of bank deposits or bonds some risk has to be accepted. But the risk can be managed by diversification and by taking a long term view. This should provide the best compromise between risk and return.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

What is the difference between a traditional warung and a café? Indonesian warung originated from a simple roadside shack that sold coffee and other basic food commodities for villagers who needed a snack or simply a break from working in the fields. Warung had no running water or electricity, and opened when the seller was ready. There are still many of these in Indonesia, but most now have electricity of some sort. As warung began to develop, they started to set up display counters, a kitchen area, basic menus and prices lists, and employ staff. Amenities were still very basic, with no running water, but ironically may have a TV (for bored customers and staff alike presumably). They would provide toilet paper for tissues and either have lesehan-style seating (for customers to sit cross legged at low tables) rather than chairs and tables. A curious feature of a warung that I like to observe involves repeat customers who have often become close friends of the seller. They are given seemingly free reign to cook their own food, mix spices to their own preferences, and run up a tab. Our hygiene standards in the West wouldn’t allow for this, but it’s an interesting cultural phenomenon here where sometimes the seller may even learn a few cooking tips from their own customers. Consistently over the ages, these slightly more modern versions still keep irregular and unpredictable opening hours. During religious holidays they can even be closed for weeks without prior notice. As warung are set up on an extremely low budget, with little planning or forward thinking, and based on a short rental term, they may be very temporal. The successful ones expand over the years, may expand or move their premises, get a food licence and a clean toilet; they may even develop into a successful restaurant or café. A metamorphosis of its former self, the modern warung is trending towards the café set-ups of the West, with all the mod-cons: wi-fi, a/c, espresso machines, live music, and computerized cashiers. This means that the lines are officially blurred. Like it or not, the fact is that in the face of modernity and globalization, the traditional warung must adapt to change or die a natural death. The trick is how to do this without losing its “Indonesian-ness”. Time will tell.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

C/He/I-24 June 15

MUMMY I DON’T FEEL WELL Diarrhea & Vomiting in Children

There seems to be a bit of a tummy bug ripping through the Island at the moment with quite a few cases of babies and children presenting at my clinic this week. We are always concerned when the littlies get sick, especially with both vomiting AND diarrhea as dehydration can happen so quickly. How do I deal with diarrhea and vomiting? (12 to 30 months) Most babies have occasional loose stools (poo). Breastfed babies have looser stools than formula-fed babies. Diarrhea is when your baby frequently passes unformed watery stools. • Diarrhea can be caused by an infection and may be accompanied by vomiting. This is called gastroenteritis (a stomach bug). Watch for blood or mucous in the stool as this can indicate and ameba. • Most stomach bugs are more common in formula-fed than breastfed babies. • If other family members or people have a stomach bug (for example, at nursery) come into contact with your baby, ask them to wash their hands using liquid soap in warm running water, and then dry their hands, frequently. Keep toilets clean and wash towels frequently. With formula-fed babies, make sure that bottles are sterilized extremely carefully. Diarrhea and vomiting are more serious in babies than older children, because babies can easily lose too much fluid from their bodies and become dehydrated. Watch for: • Lethargy or irritability • Dry mouth • Loose, pale or mottled skin • Sunken eyes and fontanel (the soft spot on the top of their head) • If they become dehydrated, they may not pass much urine. (It may be difficult to tell how much urine they’re passing when they have diarrhea) • Loss of appetite To prevent dehydration give extra fluids. (You can buy oral rehydration fluids from your local pharmacy such as pedialyte). Contact your doctor or clinic urgently for advice if your baby has passed six or more diarrheal stools in the past 24 hours, or if your baby has vomited three times or more in the past 24 hours. Get expert advice if your baby is unwell (is less responsive, feverish or not passing much urine), or if vomiting has lasted more than a day. General advice: • Give extra fluids. Give your baby oral rehydration fluids in between feeds or after each watery stool. • Do not stop giving your baby milk. Give the extra fluid as an addition to milk.

• Make sure everyone in your family washes their hands regularly with soap and warm water to avoid spreading the infection. • Don’t share towels. • Don’t take your baby swimming in a swimming pool for two weeks after the last episode of diarrhea. • Don’t return your child to their school or childcare facility until at least 48 hours after the last episode of diarrhea or vomiting. Diarrhea and vomiting in toddlers and older children

C/He/G-10 June 15

Children between the ages of one and five frequently suffer from loose stools; these children are otherwise perfectly healthy and are growing normally. This type of diarrhea is known as “toddler diarrhea”. Diarrhea usually lasts for five to seven days, and in most children it will stop within two weeks. Vomiting often lasts for one to two days, and in most children it will stop within three days. You can help by: • Giving your child plenty of clear drinks (such as water or clear broth) to replace the fluid that’s been lost, but avoid fruit juice, as these drinks can cause diarrhea. Only give your child food if they want it. • Don’t give anti-diarrheal drugs, as they can be dangerous. • Oral rehydration treatment can help such as pedialyte, coco-hydra, and coconut water. You should ask your doctor for advice if your child is taking longer to get better, or if there is any blood or mucous in the poo (ameba) or if the poo is yellow, frothy and very smelly (giardia). Watch for symptoms of dehydration such as fever, dark infrequent urine.

C/He/G-27 May 15

Lacto B probiotic supplements (available at most pharmacies) and colloidal silver (available from Bali Buda) will also help recovery from any gastroenteritis. Follow the dose on the packaging as brands may differ in strength. (Do not store colloidal silver near electronics, in a fridge or in sunlight….it will lose it’s mojo!).

Didn’t fool listeners, but nothing too humiliating. I came up with four. Limbic (i.e reptilian), human, long term and short term. “Not bad”, he sniffed, “in fact there are 38”.

Melanoma goes deep into the skin if left untreated, down into the dermal layer to eventually at stage 4 reach the lymph nodes, where it can metastasize and spread to other parts of the body. At this late stage radiation is required to treat it or surgery to remove the roots. This may leave scarring of the skin if the area is large. However, there is another type of skin cancer called Basal Cell Carcinoma, for those with a history of long exposure to the sun. This is the most common type that’s seen in Bali and Australia. A simple sun spot can turn into cancer over time with more exposure to the sun. This type of skin cancer can be easily removed with laser treatment. C/He/I-13 May 15

SCHEDULE THAT Retreat - What do I really want in my life (7 – 14 October) As children we are encouraged to think about what to do when we grow up and can be guided or grossly misguided into doing things that are completely mundane or down right boring. In contrast some people find their calling quite quickly and finding their path. Often due to circumstances we find ourselves in situations that just not be quite what we set out to achieve and dreams are often suppressed, aspirations fallen by the way side. After years into adulthood, after the marriage, children and achieving so much, the question often begs ‘what do I really want?’. Are readers living the dream as I think most of us are living on a beautiful tropical island but even that dream can become stilted and old. If you feel you need some guidance in your life and to really find the answers to some of your questions then this is definitely an opportunity to reconnect yourself with what you really want in life. After all, it is not a rehearsal, this is the real thing and the years do fly. The retreat focuses on how you would like to live your life, getting to know the laws of the universe and the blueprint of life, clearly seeing what keeps you away from living your dream in abundance and feeling your true nature. Body, mind, cleansing and physical activities are part of the programme. Where Cost Contact

There are some exclusions as only Indonesians are entitled to get the winner’s podium which is a cash prize for the 5 km run. I am sure no one minds as everyone is welcome to register and join in the 10K, and the

kids can participate in the kids dash. The minimum age for the 10K is 16 years old and the 5K 10 years old. The kids dash group A is for 5-6 years who will be required to run 400 m and the group B is 7-9 years is 1K.

This run is all about giving and supporting the annual charity fundraising effort ‘Run to Give 2015’ with 8 Starwood Hotels and Resorts in Bali and Lombok. The event will run simultaneously with 206 hotels across Asia Pacific. This charity event is working together with the Indonesian Tourism Development Corporation and Nusa Dua Fiesta and will support a housing renovation project for Bali residents in need. Charity events are always worth supporting. Registration closes on 5 October so do hurry and register or come along on the day to cheer the crowds and support this worthy cause.

Bali Pink Ribbon 5Km Walk-Run (24 October) The annual Pink Ribbon Walk has descended upon us again. The Bali Pink Ribbon Foundation is a very special foundation that is making a true difference to the lives of so many people in Bali and beyond just by raising awareness of breast cancer in the community and trying to reduce the death rates. If caught early enough the survival rate is actually high. The walk and the run will take place in the same location. As well as the walk and run there is plenty of entertainment for all the family with a kids’ corner and music. A bazaar will offer a chance to do a bit of shopping and of course runners and supporters will all need some food and drinks.

HECTOR’S Rabid Response An eight-year-old boy from Batur Tengah in Bangli died of rabies in mid-September, and a woman has died in Buleleng from the disease, the latest victims of the seven-year outbreak of the disease in Bali. Their deaths are yet another tragic reminder that the authorities here long ago dropped the ball over rabies, an entirely preventable disease, after making a good start on combating it in 2009-2010. Sadder still is that the methodology of their anti-rabies campaign is now focused on killing dogs, including vaccinated ones and family pets, instead of on vaccination, humane reduction of numbers through sterilisation, and firm, well resourced community education. Most sadly of all, rabies has become a bureaucratic battleground, a venue for fractious argument, and the latest environment in which the local bureaucratic view that foreigners should just shut up about problems since these problems (which are sometimes presented as not being problems at all) are nothing to do with them. The sensitive nature of advocacy is well understood among the foreign cohort here that does that sort of thing. They’re not doing it for money, except in the sense of spending it, since there’s very little money to be made in lending a hand. That applies in animal welfare just as much as it does in education, rural and remote health and village infrastructure, and a lot else. The particular problems of animal welfare groups are well known. They have national licences that govern their establishment and permit them to work in the field. But the provincial and district administrations are responsible for a range of subsidiary permits and permissions, and these of course can be held up at will or withdrawn at a moment’s notice. As was the case with a sterilization and vaccination day held recently in Gianyar regency and funded by the Bali Animal Welfare Association (BAWA). Public order police shut down the event even though the village concerned had sought that assistance and advised the authorities of this. The nose of the relevant regency factotum was out of joint, apparently. There’s a rare outbreak of rabies in Penang, an island off the western coast of Malaysia. It is an isolated event involving only a few dogs, and is exactly analogous with Bali’s situation in 2008 since the disease was imported. The authorities there are mass-killing dogs as a result, in the face of protest and advice that this is not the way to go, and yet again in clear breach of effective disease control measures that everyone else knows work very well. Sadly, unless they see sense and work with organisations – including NGOs with runs on the board in terms of animal welfare and health – the result in Penang will be same as in Bali. The disease will spread and people will die. The bottom line in public health (we’ll keep saying this until someone wakes up) is that rabies is a controllable disease with proper countermeasures and is not a threat in Bali to people who are fully vaccinated against it and who if they are bitten by a suspect animal have the money to obtain the necessary post-exposure booster shots. That excludes the bulk of the Balinese population, for whom such protection is a sick joke. Government clinics often do not have rabies vaccine in stock. Immunoglobulin, the expensive additional necessity in preventing rabies in people who do not have pre-exposure protection, is unobtainable. It would be wrong to keep silent while the national government looks the other way and the local authorities kill people’s pets and destroy whatever vestiges still exist of the vaccinated dog screen so painstakingly and expensively put in place in 2009-2010. We must again conclude and publicly note that the inmates have escaped and are running the asylum.

A Fond Farewell Family business has taken The Diary yet again to Western Australia, Bali’s southern suburb. This time it was to farewell the feisty lady whom we long ago dubbed World’s Best Mother-in-Law. It was a sad occasion, of course, as such things always are, but there were lots of laughs as well. The MiL was more dear friend than in-law; moreover, one with a wicked wit which she sometimes allowed herself to let loose on the unsuspecting crowd. We managed to have a little conversation, she and The Diary, before nature took its inevitable final step. And it was

instructive of times past and lovely memories. The MiL, aside from being a gentle jokester when the feeling was upon her, was an inveterate traveller and shopper including in Bali, where she has Balinese friends. She was also responsible for the marriage that has sustained The Diary through three decades. She arrived in Port Moresby in 1982 – The Diary and the would-be Distaff were living there at the time – with a wedding cake and a bridesmaid and it would have been such a shame to waste the cake. There was one outstanding question to which The Diary had always sought an answer. Not about the wedding (the cake was fabulous) but about an incident in Vanuatu a decade later. We were holidaying there, The Diary, the Distaff and the MiL, and one day hired a little sailboat, a catamaran, for a breezy self-sail tour of the Erakor lagoon. The breeze faded to nothing shortly afterwards, leaving us becalmed mid-lagoon. The Diary knew that sooner or later a boat would motor out and retrieve us, but as time passed the feeling grew strongly that the MiL would really like The Diary to get out of the boat into the chest-deep water and push the boat back to base. The Diary did not do this, for Erakor lagoon is where barracuda breed and toes seemed more important than timeliness.

In our last little chat, the day she died, The Diary made a final attempt to secure an answer as to the MiL’s wishes on that long-gone day, helped along by a warmly firm squeeze of the hand. The hint of a wicked smile appeared. So now we know. Farewell, feisty lady. You’re a trouper.

No Sax Please, We’re Closed We’ve been going to The Jazz Café Ubud since, well, forever, so it was very sad to hear that it closed its doors for the last time on Sep. 19. The last night was quite a party, it seems, and that’s fitting indeed for an Ubud institution and a place where fine musical fare was available in a great jazz atmosphere. It won’t have been making money, since it was a place where regulars were apt to drop in and sit on a single drink all evening – they were there for the music of course, but such is the focused self interest of many that the commercial viability of the establishments they frequent is at most secondary matter to them. There are other places in Ubud to listen to jazz, but none we know of that comes even close to The Jazz Café. C/E/I-17 Sept 14

Musical Chairs It used to be said, not least by Australians themselves, that Australian politics were both parochial and boring. It has lost the boring part of things – for those who enjoy such shenanigans anyway – in recent years with the development of mid-term party room coups that unseat prime ministers and install in their place a rival contender. The Labor Party started this curious art form, when it saw off Kevin Rudd and installed Julia Gillard before then uninstalling Gillard and screwing Rudd back into the socket as its preferred light on the hill. It has now spread to the Liberal Party, the larger part of the conservative coalition that has run Australia since the national elections in 2013. Tony Abbott, who was a good opposition leader but for most observers a poor and uncommunicative prime minister, had his Julius Caesar moment on Sep. 14. He was replaced by Malcolm Turnbull, a lawyer and merchant banker, whose social views are less restrictive and far less prescriptive and whose economic advocacy may turn out to be both more palatable and of better effect than that of his predecessor. Time will tell. It was good to see that Julie Bishop remained foreign minister and Andrew Robb trade minister in the cabinet changes. Political diplomacy requires a mannered and quiet approach.

BA Feature Article Kidult Addictions By Ines Wynn Most adults still have an inherent need to play and never grow out of it. The kid in them vies with the role of adult and looks for an outlet. Kidult games, toys, gadgets and pastimes have become big business, especially in our tech-oriented world. Harry Potter and cartoon characters like Shrek and Hello Kitty have attracted kids and adults alike and generated a boom of marketing frenzy. And the open doors of the internet have created a bonanza for online gaming. The term kidult, according to Wikipedia also called adultescent, is a concept initially derived from what psychologists refer to as the Peter Pan Syndrome or the tendency for an adult to remain at the same emotional level as a teenager. It can also denote an adult who has maintained or adopted a lifestyle associated with young people, especially in matters of fashion, entertainment, and recreation. More recently this has been updated to soften the insinuation of anomaly and to recognize that in each healthy adult, a bit of the kid survives and seeks expression in different ways. As a parent, you probably have been caught up in your children’s play or games and reverted to that carefree world of play and wonder. Or you have been to Disneyland or other kid-oriented theme parks and enjoyed the experience of abandoning yourself to a universe of fantasy and frolic. Any adult who is labeled as young at heart is a kidult. Kidulthood seems to have become a mainstream phenomenon and steps away from the notion of childish in favor of childlike, which is a trait that is healthy and rejuvenating. The Evolution of Toys and Games. Kidult toys, games or pastimes come dressed in all manner of styles and have evolved over time. From hands-on and mechanical to c o m p u t e r enhanced virtual experiences, they bob on the trends and currents of our society’s interests. In pre-computer and internet days kidult pleasures could be as simple as Àying kites, building model airplanes, or constructing elaborate toy train railways. Mechanical toys, arcade games, family-oriented games like cards, boardgames or puzzles all retained their attractions far into adulthood. Over time hands-on pastimes like building and racing toy versions of Formula1 cars have morphed into electronically controlled computer or smartphone operated drones. Computer-driven electronic toys like drones and quadcopters are becoming popular substitutes for the amateur model aircrafts of earlier days. These sophisticated toys can be used for aerial photography or video. Some models can be programmed to do aerobatic tricks like barrel rolls, loops, and Àips, allowing some amazing feats. With the advent of the electronic age computer-based games started a new trend in our hobbies and diversions. Though antediluvian games such as Pac-Man still have their fans, hands-on has become smart-tech and kid toys have morphed into man toys. Next came online and downloadable games. The ¿rst video games required a dedicated play machine; now you can easily download them to your computer or phone; or just play them online without downloading any apps. Higher speed Internet connections have encouraged the development of online games. Online gaming is a specialized application or technology, which connects players through the Internet. Some online games include PC and console games; others are mobile games which operate on smartphones or tablet PCs. Some console online games require speci¿c controllers or dedicated hardware, such as Xbox, Wii or PlayStation. Clever marketing has turned the kidult toys and games into a billion dollar business. Books like the Harry Potter series, ¿lms or TV programs with star trek or fantasy themes have spawned a market for merchandising. Cartoon, book, ¿lm and TV characters have been translated into high quality action ¿gures that are rapidly becoming collector’s items. The Hello Kitty character, originally targeted to pre-adolescent girls, has become a global marketing phenomenon on a par with Mickey Mouse. Kitty has sparked a branded product merchandizing

frenzy that has extended to adults. Taiwan based Eva Airlines has several Hello Kitty decked out jets; shops selling Kittythemed apparel, accessories and jewelry are popular with adults. Kitty also entered the wine market with a collection of choice vintages, continuing an expansion of products targeted at older audiences.

skills to play the game. A similar mindless-type game is Dots, which has the same premise as Candy Crush. It’s as simple as lining up dots. Sounds like a game made for kids but apparently many adults are addicted to it. The levels, as with any game, increase the dif¿culty so a skill in spatial perception is an asset.

Addicted to games. An addiction is not per se a nefast habit although it can easily veer into that realm. Some people are addicted to playing chess, scrabble or other board games; some like solving puzzles, mindless TV watching, crash-metal music or participating in online games that readily – or not - engage the intellectual, logical or strategical side of our brains or require considerable coordination skills. Solving crosswords, Sudoku or Kakuro which tap the logical cells of our brains and Mensatype games challenging our intelligence or spatial reasoning have their adherents.

Christophe from Switzerland plays Angry Birds, a puzzle video game that has zoomed wildly in popularity, in which the player controls a Àock of multi-colored birds that are attempting to retrieve their eggs, which have been stolen by a group of hungry green pigs. The goal is to kill or incapacitate the pigs and the birds you can launch have different abilities which you can utilize in your strategy of eliminating the pigs. This game is very extensive, one of the top selling paid applications and has garnered numerous awards. As of 2015 the game has 12 themed episodes and each counts an average of 45 levels.

Thanks to the success of popular TV shows, ¿lms and books, game makers have created a marketing bonanza by churning out a never-ending array of cross-gender and cross-cultural games based on characters and/or situations portrayed in these media. Role playing has always been a kidult attraction and the glamour, power and macho-feeling engendered by RPGs (role Playing Games) have created a seemingly inexhaustible market. These so-called reality games, smartphone powered or played on your computer’s console can be engaged in individually or involve teams of players that are linked virtually and play against each other or team up with buddies to engage in fantasy games that invariably involve chasing and eliminating bad guys or ¿nding or protecting a treasure. It’s become a world-wide phenomenon and it’s becoming more sophisticated.

Virtual reality games are upping the ante with virtual reality headsets like Oculus Rift and Sony’s Morpheus, currently the ultimate experience. These gadgets totally blur the lines between the real and fake as it puts the player right into the midst of action and allows him/her to alter the course of events by inserting the player as another character in the game. Microsoft also has entered the arena with its Hololens goggles that allows the wearer to immerse themselves in a mesmerizing world of augmented reality created by holograms. Online games have attracted players from a variety of ages, nationalities, and occupations. Game design can range from simple text-based environments to the incorporation of complex graphics and virtual worlds. A lot of the online games are strategy games set in fairly tale land and clothed in fantasy garb. While it de¿nitely draws on adult skills it also brings us back to the fairy tale land of your youth with a happy hodgepodge of fairy tale characters like elves, orcs, magicians and dragons. All online games have a premise, a goal, and several levels that get increasingly challenging as you progress through the game. Games can be played in solitary bliss where the challenge is to reach a goal or you can play against other players; even team up with buddies and form a group to challenge another in play tournaments. Top popular games and their addicted fans. Max is a 27 year-old French expat whose free time is dedicated to playing award-winning video games such as Candy Crush. Though the premise of the game is very simple, - i.e. you must line up a row of similar symbols representing candies – the levels get increasingly challenging. Candy crush does not require great intellectual insights, just a bit of logic and spatial orientation

Polish-born Julia loves Game of Thrones, based on the wildly popular HBO series with the same name. She says that after a tough day at work she relaxes at home with a glass of wine and the next challenge she is pursuing in that fabulous fantasy world. As Lady Mabel of Garth, she is a swornsword in the service of the king. She has already successfully battled, bribed, and seduced her way through several levels of the epic story. Game of Thrones, though it has its periodic pitched battles, is an RPG, a role playing strategy game in which the participant assumes the role of a character that undertakes a quest in an imaginary world. Julia says it requires intuitive skill and intellectual astuteness to meander your way through the proverbial mine¿elds and the available choices and options become increasingly taxing as you advance through the levels. Similar games like Stormfall and Clash of Clans are popular with the younger set. Stormfall is a strategy game in which players build up and trade resources with allies in order to raid enemy castles and go to battle in the ¿eld. Like Clash of Clans, you can marshal a bevy of wizards, goblins, dragons and all matter of hopping and Àying creatures with bizarre names to pick and win your targets. League of Legends is a tad different in that it is a battle game of champions in which players ¿eld their own champion against those of other players in order to destroy a heavily defended enemy building called a nexus. The champions, of course, have unique capabilities and attributes – bought, acquired or traded - that allow them to function in the realm of wizardry and superpowers. If those heavily laden fantasy games are a bit too fantastic to your taste, you can always play more realistic or down-to-earth games like FIFA football or table football. Or go sleuthing with Criminal Case, a detective-type game played on Facebook. Facebook has a number of games you can indulge in. In the early days a number of social network games made inroads such as Farmville, a game whose adherents were cynically called “cow clickers”. The premise of the game was to populate and grow your imaginary farm and earn points (and marshal your FB friends to help you earn points) by clicking on a cow icon. As games go, this was a mindless, challengefree game that demands little more than clicking on things. Surprisingly the game survived and still has its enthusiastic players. Ambel, a 50-year old from the Philippines became a master of the game by involving her extended family and extensive circle of friends. “Of course”, she says with punintended humor, “it’s a bit pointless but not any more so than watching stupid TV shows.”

BA FEATURE - Kidult Addictions Continued from page 24 Lenny from the UK has been playing games all his life. Now 62 and with ample free time on his hands, he recalls playing Nintendo as a child, a game he inherited from his father. From there he meandered onto Xbox games and has finally settled on his present addiction, a game called Space Thrashers, which is played online with multiple partners, against countless enemies. He waxes exuberant when he relates the high he gets from engaging in endless battles, defeating android and hybrid enemies, trolls and other dark matter. According to him it’s the constant adrenaline high and the feeling of power that is the addictive element in the game. Free Online Games. Free games are available from several gaming websites. They are an excellent way to get an introduction to those addictive games. The best part of it is that you don’t need special aps or software or those complicated playing machines or joysticks. And you don’t even have to download and install. Web games promise instant delight. They can deliver a quick thrill and a punch line and then let you get on with your day. You can play Doom in your browser and whole RPGs, explore intricate works of interactive fiction and wage space-war against your friends. There are zillions of free web games to choose from. To make it simple, start with a website that offers several of the most favorite browser games like www.pcgamer.com. They have a long list of games sensibly divided up along genre lines. They include Action & Adventure games, Puzzles, Platformer, Score attack, RPG and Comedy. You can also download free games from the Google Play Games website and the Apple Game Center. You can also go directly to the game sites of popular games like Game of thrones and start your quest. The number of daily active online gamers worldwide is ever increasing. As of early 2015, there were 155 million online gamers, 52% male and 48% female. In the Asia Pacific area alone they number over 50 million. A study conducted in 2014 shows the average age of gamers is 31 years; 29% is under 18, 32% is within the range of 18 to 35 years of age, and 39% is 36 or older. It is indeed an ever-expanding world. No wonder most kids and kidults you encounter these days have their noses glued to their electronic gadgets. Are they all playing Dots?

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

THE ALCHEMY OF TURNING GARBAGE INTO COMPOST Garbage, garbage everywhere - Bali’s most pressing problem is highly visible. But one long-term project has been focusing on this issue since 2004, one truckload of garbage at a time. Bali’s waste is pretty predictable. About 85% is organic (garden clippings, old offerings, kitchen waste), 7% is recyclable and 8% is unusable and can only be disposed of in land¿lls. There is a sustainable, correctly designed and managed land¿ll at Temesi in Gianyar. But organics going to land¿ll take up most of the space and generate methane, a dangerous greenhouse gas. The Temesi pilot facility started operating in mid 2004 to research and develop an environmentally friendly, safe and economical waste recovery solution. By composting and recycling, over 90% of collected garbage could be diverted from the land¿ll.

temperature, water and oxygen content electronically. “We learned a lot of lessons over the past decade,” said David. “In retrospect, the facility was too big. It was too far from the towns so there was a high incentive to dump the garbage illegally and save petrol costs. We didn’t anticipate that the recyclables would be diverted before we could collect and sell them. The concept of an integrated recycling and waste management centre was probably ahead of its time. But we have really ¿gured out how to make compost. Now we need community support to buy it.” One excellent waste management model that has emerged recently is the concept of Waste Banks, which originated in Yogyakarta in 2008. These are springing up all over Indonesia because they are so cheap to open and easy to manage. Each neighbourhood initiative engages up to 100-300 households but can manage up to 1,000. Every householder is issued with a bank book, and when recyclables are brought to the bank the items are recorded in the book. The credits can be cashed in quarterly. Pro¿t is generated by selling the recyclables to mobile agents and the bank manager keeps 15% for operating costs and salary.

The project was initiated by the now defunct Rotary Club of Bali Ubud, with implementing partners Yayasan Bali Fokus and Yayasan Gelombang Udara Segar (GUS). The land was provided by the government of Gianyar and project funding came from Rotary clubs, the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs By composting and recycling, FDFA, the Canadian International over 90% of collected garbage Development Research Centre IDRC, could be diverted from OCPR of USAID and some private the land¿ll. donors. It was anticipated that the project would generate two income streams which would make it sustainable: selling compost and sorting and selling recyclables like glass, tin,paper and plastic. Selling the recyclables, especially from large hotels, was expected to create most of the income. But over time it became clear that the recyclables were not in fact reaching the project; they were being harvested by scavengers before the trucks reached the recycling centre. Lucrative hotel waste was usually sorted and sold near the property. So the recycling concept was restructured to give the revenue to outsourced waste separators, and making and selling compost became the focus of the project. At Temesi, the 42 tons of organic waste collected daily which would otherwise decompose in the land¿ll and generate methane gas becomes 15 tons of compost instead. This represents the equivalent of 154,000 tons of CO2 emissions which will be avoided under the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol. Sales of carbon credits at the Temesi project will generate a total of about US$1.4 million over ten years. Who buys carbon credits? In this case a Swiss tour operator called Kuoni, which offers them to travellers when they buy their air tickets to help neutralise their carbon footprint. This money, which was meant to replicate the Temesi site in other areas of Bali, is now being used to subsidise the compost project. Swiss Rotarian and retired chemical engineer David Küper, who has directed the project from the beginning, spent years researching systems to create large scale compost in tropical conditions.“Because the income from recycling didn’t work out as planned, the project has morphed into a huge compost making centre,” he explained. “There is now a 4800 square metre separation and composting facility under cover. We can only process about 10 truck loads of garbage a day - about 50 tons - so the majority still goes into the land¿ll.” Large blowers force air into the piles of organic waste, which are watered, mixed and loosened up to maintain optimal conditions. Aerobic composting is an oxidation process creating mostly CO2 from decomposing organics (instead of methane in an anaerobic process) and is 25 times less harmful than methane as a greenhouse gas. It’s because of this aerobic decomposition preventing the production of methane that the Temesi facility receives carbon credits under the Clean Development Mechanisms of the United Nation Framework Convention for Climate Change. The oxygen content of the compost is maintained at about 12% and the moisture content is kept at 40- 60%. Active aerobic microorganisms produce heat during the decomposition process. The temperature reaches over 70°C, which sanitizes the compost and ensures that it is free of weed seeds, insect eggs and larvae or pathogens like E. Coli. The project has all the necessary instruments to measure

The concept of Waste Banks is supported by the government and several corporations are helping to start them as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility programs. Bank customers are encouraged to compost at home, and some Banks incorporate a composting area. Waste Banks are proving hugely popular and are springing up all over Indonesia. By the end of this year about 5% of the population will have access to one of about 15,000 Waste Banks around the country. Temesi opened its own Waste Bank a year ago and now has 87 customers including a hotel. The Bank’s turnover is about Rp 17,000,000 per month, which works out to about RP. 2 million a year credit per customer. There are several such Banks in Badung and Denpasar. “It was also a lesson learned from the Temesi waste recovery project that decentralized, small-scale bottom-up projects like the Waste Banks have a much larger potential than top-down centralized approaches, which meet many obstacles,” David observed. “There is a huge market for organic compost in the agricultural sector. The Ministry of Industry (Kementerian Perindustrian) estimates that a nationwide shortfall of 8.7 million tons this year. All fertilisers sold to rice farmers are subsidized to keep the staple food of Indonesians affordable. So far, only producers af¿liated with state-owned companies receive subsidies.

GARDEN DOCTOR Dealing with a Grubby Garden ‘Dear Dr Kris, I have white grubs in the garden. Do you have any ideas on how to get rid of these suckers? They are eating the roots out of most of my garden plants. Many thanks, Vlad Denpasar’ The white grubs are the larval forms of scarab beetles, which could include Japanese beetles, chafers and May/ June or Christmas beetles. These grubs can grow up to 3 - 4cm in length, have a C-shaped body, are white with brown heads, have six prominent legs and plump bodies. They can cause signi¿cant damage to turf grass and other plants by feeding on the roots, as you rightly point out. All it takes is a couple of seasons with these grubs to destroy an entire lawn from the underneath up. They are relentless, they just keep eating and eating the roots until the lawn eventually gives up. Some cultures through history dealt with grubs by eating them, while I am not suggesting that you should do that, keep it mind as a last resort if all else fails.. Native Americans roasted them over coals and ate them like popcorn, as did Australian aborigines with the slightly larger witchetty grub, though they could be eaten raw also. When digging your garden or preparing your compost if you notice several grubs then you may have a problem or a snack? White grubs damage crops by feeding on the root system. This can lead to poor plant growth and sometimes plant death. Damage can be especially serious when they feed on young plants and seedlings. The adult beetles can also damage plants by feeding on the foliage, but it is rarely as serious as the damage done by the root feeding larvae. Most species of white grub complete their lifecycle in one year; however the most damaging species Phyllophaga implicita - the May or June beetle, can take up to three years to complete its lifecycle, which means it will be down there munching for a long time. The grubs are voracious feeders that line up to chew on your lawn and plant roots like the throngs at the all you can eat seafood buffet! White grubs feed on the roots of a very wide range of plants such as many types of grasses roses and many other ornamentals, they love lawns. They also target potatoes, tomatoes, asparagus, strawberries, pineapples and many other vegetables. Damage symptoms may include wilting, stunted growth and death, but are often noticed by the time it is already too late. Heavy white grub infestations will destroy grass roots, causing the affected area to become spongy, which allows it to be rolled back like a piece of carpet.

by Dr. Kris

Evidence of grub infestation may manifest as patches of dead or dying turf, plants and Àowers. The symptoms of a grub infestation are not always obvious. Survey and map the area in question to be sure an infestation is present. Using a garden spade, remove one square foot of turf and soil (up to 20cm ~8 inches deep) at several locations. Examine the soil and turf thoroughly for grubs. When the examination is complete, lay the sod back in place and pack it in ¿rmly. Water in the areas sampled to prevent the grass from drying out or dying. A wide array of variables can influence the severity of damage from white grubs. It is difficult to establish a set number of grubs per square foot that can be used to determine whether a curative control measure is needed. However, in most cases, ¿ve to ten grubs per square foot often is used as the threshold. Thus, each situation must be evaluated and judged separately.A simple control method involves turning the soil which can destroy many larvae, pupae and adults in the soil. It also exposes them to the sun and to predators such as birds and other insects. If you have chooks they will love to snack on any grubs that you ¿nd. Natural enemies that control these white grubs include several types of parasitic wasps and Àies. Lack of tillage or no soil disturbance encourages grub populations, so where possible turn your soil, fork and aerate as often as possible whilst grubs are a problem and pick them out. Beetles will usually emerge from pupae in the soil in response to the start of the rainy season or soil disturbance. Adults typically emerge at dusk and are active night Àiers, they commonly feed on trees, and eventually return to grasslands, gardens, and cultivated ¿elds to lay eggs following mating. Female adults can continue to lay eggs for over 100 days. Up to 60 eggs can be laid at a time. So you will also need to repel adult beetles, whilst also trying to get on top of the

grubby problem. Repellent plants such as chives, garlic, tansy, and catnip, can be used to repel adult beetles. Other practical strategies include, ensuring proper drainage in the soil since grubs prefer moist environments, especially with decaying organic matter. Female beetles prefer to lay eggs on moist decaying organic matter, that’s why you can often ¿nd them in the compost. Reducing or pruning overgrown trees that attract adults may also help. A heavy application of nitrogen fertilizer can kill the larvae, but be careful, too much and you will also kill your plants. To offset the damage caused by the grub worms, keep your vegetable garden or lawn watered. Abundant water will help the damaged roots easily absorb water. Grubs are serious pests especially to lawn and vegetable gardening enthusiasts, not to mention farmers also. These solutions will help you get rid, or at least keep the grub worms under control. You don’t have to worry about contaminating your garden with toxic chemicals since you won’t need any at all. If you have tried all of this and the infestation will not abate, then it sounds like you have an all out war on your hands. Believe me if you have seen the damage an infestation causes you will be prepared to declare war on these grubs. The most effective method of attack is biological warfare, and the ¿rst weapon in your arsenal would be to employ bene¿cial nematodes (which are like tiny worms). They are the natural enemies of the white grub. You can buy nematode spawn in a packet and add them to your soil and they will seek out and destroy these pests. However, they are only effective on young larvae, so you need to do some observation and research to ¿gure out the egg laying season. Once it is the season of beetles to lay their eggs, purchase nematodes from a gardening store and follow the instructions indicated. Spray on your lawn or vegetable garden sit back and let nature do the work. Using milky spore on your lawn is another biological control for the grubs. Just spread it over your lawn and milky spore can kill grub worms for up to 10 years. If you can’t source bene¿cial nematodes or milky spore from a retail outlet, they are easily available online. If insecticides must be applied treatments with neem oil have shown some effectiveness in controlling of white grubs, but remember that you have earthworms and all sorts of bene¿cial soil organisms that would be adversely affected so really not worth it in my opinion.

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

Secret Bali by Jill Gocher and Jean Couteau As Bali evolved from a sleepy agriculturally based island of 20 years ago, one that was living its unique culture on a daily basis, to the dynamic tourism-based resort island of today, it has all but replaced the traditional Balinese culture with a Western veneer of modernity. But there is a secret Bali that is hidden behind compound walls, beyond the glitzy tourist resorts and the growl of traf¿c-choked roads, in villages deep in the countryside. This timeless Bali even exists in the labyrinth back alleys of Denpasar’s crowded city kampung. Behind all these 21st C. facades, there is a way of life continues unabated as it has for centuries. Based in Ubud, the island’s artistic and cultural heartland, the independent Australian photographer, writer and editor Jill Gocher has for the past decade recorded up close the changes wrought by the island’s all-devouring development and tourism industries, determined to document as much as possible the island’s traditional life and customs for the future. In a style that is both eclectic and experimental, Gocher has the ability to capture Balinese life beautifully with her camera - whether it is a villa, a landscape, a portrait or food porn. Gocher has spent her whole professional life exploring Asian cultures. She ¿rst visited Bali in 1972, but it wasn’t until 2006 that she took up residence on the island. Early on in her career, Gocher revealed a penchant for photographing the art of travel rather than taking earnest pictures of “native” peoples. She also learned to write to make it easier to sell her photos. Her ¿rst job was as the editor of Hello Bali magazine. Over the years she has wrote and photographed articles for a number of regional and international magazines as well as authored and photographed numerous photography/travel/history/guide and coffee table books on Indonesia and held major exhibitions at galleries in Singapore, Kathmandu and Bali. In Secrets of Bali, Gocher creates memorable visual artistry out of the mundane as well as the profane. She takes us along on one “mystic evening” during Galungan, the largest and most lavish religious celebration in the Balinese calendar. Her captivating images of the ancient temple complex of Gunung Kawi, the holy spring of Yeh Massam and Ubud’s sacred monkey forest are taken from a different perspective than the usual straight ahead shots of these popular tourist sites. Gocher is able to step back, take in the bigger picture and get to the heart of the matter. For her, it’s the subject’s essential character that counts. We are taken on a photographic tour of a house-blessing ceremony (melaspas), a Balinese royal wedding (bekantin), a cock¿ght (tajen) and a temple celebration at Mount Raung Temple which takes place every 200 years. The dramatic images of a ngaben make it clear why a cremation is the most spectacular of Bali’s rituals, the culmination of a person’s life and a sendoff to the afterlife. Most of Gocher’s pictures have people in them and there is usually a very

strong connection between subject and photographer. This photographer has a creative way of working with light and the elements of a scene are placed effectively together to form an harmonious whole. One chapter is devoted to Ubud Market, a seemingly pedestrian subject that Gocher has photographed time and again since her student days at university. In the middle of one of Bali’s most touristic villages, the early market is an ideal venue for observing villagers’ daily activities. She urges readers to get there before 9 am when it is still a traditional market deserved of study. Starting around 11 am, the ambience changes from women selling fresh produce to vendors hawking tourist baubles and souvenirs in what amounts to a big tourist bazaar.

Another unique aspect of this photo book is the emphasis that is placed on the myths and legends that underlie so much of Balinese culture. Bali is still the type of place where spirits permeate every corner of the island. To cover this all-important element of Balinese life, the publisher enlists the talents of Dr. Jean Couteau, veteran writer, historian, art critic, cultural custodian and lecturer at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) in Denpasar. Couteau, one of the most noteworthy chroniclers of all aspects of Balinese society and religion for the past 30 years, is one of a small number of expatriates who is truly Àuent in Balinese. This scholar’s principle books are Bali Today, Bali Inspires: The Rudana Art Collection (2011), Time, Rites and Festivals in Bali (2014), and most recently Lempad: A Timeless Master (2014). Couteau maintains that Balinese culture has been manufactured to suit tourists’ expectations. The “seen” and “unseen” elements of Balinese life are explained and illustrated; i.e. the visible world of sekala and the spirits of the invisible underworld of niskala. The work of the gifted Gocher and the erudite Couteau have come together to create Secret Bali, an extended photo essay that incorporates a rare and exceptional combination of talents and creativity. For this reason, and for its reasonable price, the book makes an ideal collector’s item and keepsake not just for Baliophiles but for visitors, residents and Asian studies academics and students. Secret Bali by Jill Gocher, Jean Couteau contributor, published by NOW! Bali Publications 2012, ISBN 978-602979-7121, 120 pages, hardcover. Available for Rp150,000 at Periplus (www.periplus.com) and Ganesha bookstores (www.ganeshabooksbali.com).

“Thinking with Your Groin” “Hey mate” “Oh hello” “I’ve had a really good idea.” “A good idea?” “Yes no one has thought of it before.” “Never before, are you sure?” “Oh yes, it’s a dead cert, easy as pie and I’ll make a fortune.” “Hmm many people have tried before but Bali is very competitive with every man and his dog wanting to come and set up a business here.” “Yea but ya gotta have a new idea.” “So what is this new idea no one else has ever thought of?” “I’m gonna open a bar.” “A bar? Oh that’s a good idea, not many of those around are there?” How many people have come to Bali with the idea of opening a bar or restaurant? They think it’s so easy don’t they? They spend a fortune renovating the place, it is a failure, they lose their shirt and they leave. For many they will blow their life’s savings. It’s rather like a bad marriage, people think with their groin, the romance takes over but then, once committed, reality creeps in and for some the dream turns into a nightmare. As the cynics say you might as well save yourself all the trouble, find someone you don’t like and give them half of your money. The same can be said of opening a restaurant in Bali. Most people come with very little knowledge of catering or running a bar. It all looks so easy and they fail to realise that those few establishments that are genuinely successful are run by people who have a lot of skill and experience in their industry, have worked hard to build up their business over many years and have learned a lot of lessons along the way. It isn’t getting any easier and in recent years even highly experienced people who have built up successful businesses in other parts of Bali are trying to establish new venues and are failing dismally. But there is a new problem emerging - a result of grossly over inflated property prices. Naive people come to Bali and have a dream, out of touch with the local market they offer ever increasing amounts of money to lease the premises. They don’t realise that from the outset they have set up a situation where their enterprise will have great difficulty paying for itself. This is destroying some of the more established operators. One highly experienced man who has run very successful restaurants in Bali for over 30 years has, in the last few years, been driven out as new people coming in have paid far higher rents to his landowners to take his businesses off him. These people are doomed to not being able to recoup their investments. After paying far too much in rents they then make further mistakes by overcapitalising, they spend a fortune renovating, even rebuilding, the restaurants and bars they take over. This makes it even harder to recoup their money. In some cases these people take over a business that was not working, the new owners believe they can make the business successful but may fail to realise the earlier business was not successful because of some major failing (such as location). Establishments in poor locations will only succeed if they have a particular market to reach or they do something very special. In other cases people take over already successful businesses but then they want to stamp their identity on it (rather like a dog with a tree) but, by changing things, they destroy the magic formula that made the place work and end up clutching defeat from the jaws of victory. Success in any sort of tourism, hospitality or entertainment is, to put it mildly, very elusive and, once found, is very fickle. At any time some small, often very difficult to identify, thing can escalate and destroy years of hard work. Running a restaurant or bar requires an unusual combination of being optimistic and creative enough to realise a dream while at the same time being pessimistic enough to develop a workable financial model. These days even big players, people and organisations who have already built up successful establishments elsewhere, are losing large amounts of money with new bars and restaurants standing empty. Many misread the prevailing market in the area they set up in. Each tourism area of Bali has its own distinct customer profile. Some years ago a couple took over a failing bar/restaurant. They spent nothing on the old, rather tired, buildings. They put on a good band on a Friday night and in no time the place was packed. Through shear fluke they found success which lasted for several years. Unfortunately they were not able to maintain the momentum and it slowly died. The place was old and tired but situated in a very good location. It was taken over by a business man (already in the

hospitality industry) who spent an absolute fortune building a totally new, purpose built restaurant and bar. It is a disaster and, having been open for over 6 months, sits totally empty among other successful restaurants. With no proven business plan and a total lack of understanding of his target markets his money has been wasted. It is a barn of a place with no atmosphere, the menu has little identity and the endless football on the numerous television screens does nothing but keep people away. The owner, instead of working to understand what is going wrong and taking steps to try to improve his business formula has instead resorted to a common tactic that the owners of failing restaurants take - music - the louder the better and don’t worry about the quality. In the face of ongoing failure the volume of the music is progressively turned up (of course the louder it is the more tourists it will attract) which has the effect of driving people out of his competitors restaurants (perhaps in his confusion he thinks that this is what competition is all about) however the point is missed that he is ensuring that no one will ever enter his portal. His establishment fails at the most basic levels such as the loud techno music favoured by his bar staff which is the last thing in the world the average visitor wants to hear at breakfast time in a sleepy corner of Bali. Just down the street is another restaurant, formerly failed, it was taken over by people who really know what they are doing, they spent very little on renovations but they have a good product and from the day it opened it has been highly successful. It proves a very important point that it isn’t what you spend on the place that brings success, it is what you do in it that counts. If you don’t understand your market and you don’t listen to what customers need you cannot succeed in such a competitive business. It is probably best to start small with little investment; try things, learn your lessons, develop a formula, particularly a financial model that works. You can then move on to something bigger.

It is also important to be able to recognise features that give your establishment advantages. In recent months I have seen a restaurant that had a carpark (very few restaurants have the significant advantage of a carpark) and as the restaurant failed the owners removed the carpark and replaced it with even more empty tables in chairs (people don’t go into empty restaurants).

C/Bm/A-15 Oct 14

In another recent case a venue situated on a significant corner had an important feature - a large tree that stood on the footpath outside and provided shade to the restaurant and was a landmark in the area. During extensive (and largely unnecessary) renovations the new owner has cut down the tree. Some do’s and don’t for prospective bar and restaurant owners. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13.

Location is very important, VERY important. Don’t spend over the odds on the rent. Don’t go into it with a partner, it is hard enough covering one expatriate’s living costs. Develop a well researched business plan with a pessimistic view of what you can achieve. Start well within your capacity with something small and build up size when you have a winning formula. Don’t let the dream destroy the override the pessimism need to manage the budget. Know your target customers. Develop a menu that has the right selection of food and at the right prices. Remember that what you like is not necessarily what everyone else likes - believe it or not some people don’t like Bintang. Try and create your own identity. Atmosphere is very important, particularly the lighting. Generally speaking people will not climb stairs to a restaurant. Don’t let the bar staff or the band determine the type and volume of the music.

Finally, as Michael Jackson’s face proved, don’t overcapitalise. Spending huge amounts on renovations will not guarantee success in fact it could well bring disaster. A cleverly thought out makeover may be the best option.

MUSIC MATTERS

WOODEN BLINDS

25mm, 35mm & 50mm

By Toby

Summer has come and gone, and now in mid September we stand guard against the deluge of the coming rainy season and the drop off in tourists here on the island. Of¿cial stats suggest that tourism was up by about 13% on last year and people from all over the world are choosing to holiday here, which is great for Bali’s musicians and the events and festivals which took place.

Sun Oct 18 2015 at 07:00 pm. DUAJI & GURUJI - DEWA BUDJANA BAND + JOHN MCLAUGHLIN 4th DIMENSION ARMA resort and museum Ubud, Bali

This last month I have been blessed to attend some great events like, in no particular order, The Sanur festival, The Nusa Dua Jazz market, Ubud Jazz festival, and the three day Sounndrenaline rock festival at the GWK. In this same period of time was Dream¿elds one day dance festival, so August was pretty momentous for Bali’s live music scene. September is when traditionally we harvest; we gather together and feast so I have compiled a live music (must see) list for all Music Matters readers from now until the end of October.

DUAJI & GURUJI is a famous Indonesian psycadellic jazz out¿t which combines the sounds of the 60’s with contemporary jazz melodies also internationally acclaimed U.S. Jazz guitarist JOHN MCLAUGHLIN and his band 4th Dimension will be at the event, making this yet another must see event for lovers of Jazz music this 2015!

Say What? C/Ho/G-02 Sept. 15

Question: I am an attractive and amazing 23-year-old woman, who is mostly very happy with her awesome life except for one fact: I have never had “romantic feelings” for anyone. I don’t mean “finding my soulmate”; I’m talking about “chemistry.” I’ve gone on dates, kissed people, and had sex (I am definitely not asexual), but I haven’t ever had a crush on anyone. I used to think it was something that would eventually happen, but it has yet to come along. I once got close to it with a friend who asked me out, but he had a crush on my best friend and started ignoring me to hit on her. Then last year, I met a wonderful guy and asked him out, and we even had sex (my first time), but I felt nothing. Even when he decided to end it, I felt nothing - not even sadness. Is that normal? I fear that I’m some kind of robot without feelings, born incapable of love, and I wonder if it is wrong to ask someone out, when I’m not feeling it, in hopes that I may eventually. Falling in love seems as if it feels amazing and frightening all at the same time, and I want to some day have sex and a real relationship with someone I have all sorts of good feelings for, someone who also has good feelings for me in return. Am I just crazy? Am I over-thinking it? Is there something I can do to open myself up more to feelings? Do people maybe sense this about me, and then shy away from me because of it? Dr. ZZ: Thanks for yours questions! Yes, you are over-thinking it. There’s nothing wrong with you. It’s perfectly okay to date whomever you like without pushing yourself to feel anything you don’t feel. At some point, someone will most likely have deeper feelings for you than you have for them, and you’re going to wish you could return the feelings. That’s natural. You’re even apt to feel weird that you can’t. None of that is because you’re a robot; this happens to everyone. Even people who know they can fall in love don’t do it in some magical, simultaneous, automaticallyreciprocated way. Keep right on being the amazing person you are with an awesome life. Focus on finding whatever it is you want to do in life, and become great at it. Pour your love into your family and friends. Travel. Read voraciously. Learn everything you can about the world. Make your body a source of joy and pleasure, whatever that means for you - dancing, exercising, eating delicious food, and touching other people when it feels right. Pour love and care into yourself, then pour it back out into the world. Eventually, after lots of fun and a zillion false-starts, disappointments and sexy experiences, love will most likely find you. When it does, you will feel it. Until then, no problem! You have that awesome life.

Question: I am planning to go away to university soon, and I’m also in love with my high school sweetheart. We’ve known each other for two years and actually started kissing only 3 days before graduation. Recently, he told me he loves me. I know he’s serious and telling the truth, and I love him back. The thing is, when I leave for school, I’ll be 12,000 km away and starting a whole new life: new friends, new habits, new country, new possible love interest. He knows that, and he has told me that he’ll just have to accept my decision, that it’s my life, and that he can’t ask me to put everything on hold for 4 years because of him. The reality is I would have put my life on hold for him. I love him, but I know what he says is true. Perhaps it’s naive of me to think I won’t find someone I like at university. I’m also hoping that during the time I’m away, he’ll have matured a bit. He’s what my mom calls a “project.” He got okay grades in high school, is not going to university, and doesn’t really know what he wants to do. Is it stupid to have some hope for the future? Should I get it into my head that we will never be together? Should I voice my thoughts and concerns to him? Thanks for your help. Dr. ZZ: Love doesn’t have to mean marriage. Your impulse to go to university and embrace the opportunity with everything you’ve got is brave, courageous, and certain to make for an amazing experience. It is also not stupid to wonder if you and this guy could have a future because - whether it’s the first time or the fiftieth - to love and to be loved in return feels wonderful; it is perfectly natural to cling to the experience. The two of you are being exceptionally mature in considering that your time together may have an expiration date. The best advice I can give you is to enjoy the present moment. See as much of each other as you can - not necessarily alone, just more. Avoid planning your wedding, or how you’ll stay in touch, or how it will be when you return in the summer because who knows? The future is malleable. Perhaps you will fall in love with someone new at school. Perhaps you’ll come back for the summer and pick up exactly where you left off. The future is almost always different than we planned it. On the day you leave for college, have a big, teary kiss goodbye. Take that memory with you, and make it happen again.

Dr. ZZ has a Ph.D. in Counseling and a doctorate in Natural Healing. Drawing on a background of over thirty years as a professional therapist, she offers self-help in the areas health, relationship and personal growth.

Update Lamak has become an Ubud institution. It opened on Valentine’s Day, 2011, 14 years ago when Lamak and TeraZo were the sole upmarket eateries offering western cuisines outside of the 5 star hotels nearby in Sayan. Since then so many new places have opened to compete with Lamak [Mozaic, CasCades, Uma, Bridges, Indochine, Locavore, Taksu, Café des Artistes, Hajun Locale, Petani, etc] but Lamak keeps pace with all, successfully offering that unique blend of basic traditional French/Italian cuisine combined with Asian spices, maybe with a twist or two. Located on the upper part of Monkey Forest Road, a rather small street front entrance opens out into the garden setting behind, where most choose to dine. Lamak always seem to keep coming up with new creations, some complex others so simple it is amazing that no one else has ever thought of it before. That was the case for my most recent visit, a Chicken Mango [called ‘Pan-fried Poulet’ on the menu], so simple, so good! It is a breast of chicken, folded and stuffed with puree of mango, crumbed and pan-fried. The sauce a soft turmeric in coconut milk, which is cleverly placed in the bottom of the plate before adding 3 ‘logs’ of deep-fried zucchini [which I had thought sounded very boring but proved to be so integral to the dish]. The chicken sits on the zucchini and so it keeps nice and crunchy for you to then cut and dip in the sauce as you wish. Other Euro-Asian delights on the Lamak menu include an entrée of River Prawns in lemongrass ginger butter sauce. Mains can be the imported Duck Breast with a cream sauce of lemongrass and red chilli or BBQ Pork Spare Ribs with that Chinese Hunan sauce [ginger, garlic, cloves and chilli]. One of the best garden cocktail bars in Bali is an extra attraction, their exotic cocktails, a large range of premium spirits and an excellent wine list all add to the experience. The Parlour is on Raya Petitenget, Kerobokan. It is sited where there was once a furniture showroom and adjoining Swedish café, but it had been long since empty. The new incumbents have left the showroom area as an air-conditioned room and retained the outdoor garden terrace. The day begins with a wide variety of breakfasts. Simple [Cinnamon Toast, Waffles or Eggs any which way + extras], unusual [Omelette Wrap, flat onion and chive omelette wrapped around your choice of filling], Indonesian [tradtional Bubur Ayam or Green Lentil Soup] or just healthy [muesli with nuts, fresh fruit and yoghurt]. Lunch can be Duck Salad, an open sandwich [Ayam Betutu or Avocado and Chicken], Ruben [bacon, cheddar and sauerkraut, but on normal brown bread not rye] or a Shawarma Wrap. A burger different from the rest is their special Truffle Oil Burger. The Hainan Chicken Rice uses ‘sous vide’ breast and leg meat with that fragrant rice. An unusual char siu pork version is also available.

Begawan, just northwest of Ubud. The view is to the upper reaches of the Ayung River, surrounded by natural bush lands, not a building in sight. A perfect setting in which to enjoy quality cuisine, and that is what they offer. Now you can do so on Sundays by attending their Sunday Brunch. It is far more exotic than many other brunches on offer around Bali, just to make the trip that much more worthwhile. Begin with charcuterie European style, followed by oysters, duck foie gras, roasted prime rib of beef, crispy skin baby snapper, duo of scallops and prawns, glazed salmon, baby chicken Peking style, coconut palm sugar panna cotta and apple and pineapple crumble. After this incredible feast you are invited to use the Sita Wing swimming pool, to swim or just lounge by the pool. The Brunch begins with Bloody Mary and chilli passion martini cocktails, and a free flow wine option is available with the brunch.

Gangsta Wraps is new on Jln. Danau Poso, Sanur. This is the site that once hosted the excellent Elsewhere, now sadly closed. The current incumbent has downscaled from restaurant to anytime snacks; Wraps, Burgers and Sandwiches. The Wraps are in tortillas specially made, daily, for Gangsta. The fillings can be Meatball Melt [meatballs in pomodoro sauce and melted mozzarella], Kofte Kebab [minced lamb, yoghurt mint], Crispy Chicken or Sloppy Joe. Sandwiches can be in a baguette, Cubano [ham, pork belly, pickles and Swiss cheese] or just cheese with caramelized onions. Burgers are traditional or with bacon and cheese. Something different is with Korean kimchee [cabbage fermented in chilli] or with chorizo. Triple-cooked Chips or Chicken Croquettes can be added to any order. Dessert is Sticky Maple Pudding or Warm Cashew Brownie with vanilla ice cream. Gangsta continues Elsewhere’s policy of allowing BYO, so bring your favourite wine and enjoy with your food [no corkage charged!]. Kakiang is a small Japanese villa complex, café and bakery in Pengosetan, just south of Ubud. Their bakery is one of the best and every morning the regulars queue for the very French Croissants [many of which finish on the breakfast tables of nearby villas, home-stays and hotels]. Their breads, cakes and tarts, all very European, are also in demand. Kakiang II is about to open in Nagi Village, just north of Andong to Ubud’s north-east. With much more ground space Kakiang II is styled as Café, Bakery and Garden. Certain to be very popular! The Melbourne Cup is an amazing horse race. It claims to be the ‘race that stops a nation’ and it is true. Many pictures have been taken of the main street of any Australian city the 1st Tuesday in November, and they are usually totally devoid of any cars instead of the usual bumper to bumper traffic! Everyone is at a cup party or glued to shop windows watching the race on TV. More and more Bali establishments [particularly those with either Australian management or custom] hold Cup Party functions every year. Not surprisingly Cocoon is the first ‘cab off the rank’ or ‘horse on the track’ if you prefer, this year. They host one of the very best cup functions every year and are taking bookings already. An extensive 3 course lunch [Rp. 900,000++ with free flow drinks from 11.00 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. is only the beginning. In traditional cup day tradition there are prizes for Best Hat, Best Dressed Lady & Gent. The ladies usually arrive with an exotic ‘creation’ perched on their head. An all day live feed from the Flemington track on the many TV’s and the mandatory sweepstakes are all part of the fun. Bookings for Cup 2015 [Tuesday November 3] can be made at tickets@cocoon-beach.com. Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com NC/NV/U-30 Sept. 15

Restaurant Review

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

Tapas by The Sea! Sanur has never had it so good! There are many new hotels opening and even the older ones are being re-furbished and adding new ideas. One of the originals was Sanur Beach Hotel, now re-branded as Prama Sanur Beach with many changes already and there are more to come. A big surprise was their eco-friendly all bamboo, Bamboo Bar. What a brilliant design! 5 levels, from ‘on the sand’ at front through covered terrace [the smoking areas], just inside bar are a line of chairs at the rail looking out. Behind the bar are unique and romantic swinging basket cages for two, behind that are a row of comfortable booths. All sections are on slightly different levels so everyone has the full ocean view. Such a simple solution, why have not all the others done something similar? The range of drinks [it is primarily a bar], cocktails, beers and spirits is very extensive, and surprisingly at very reasonable prices, in fact for a hotel such as this to charge less than many leading restaurants is extremely surprising and very welcome. However it is mainly the available food that we are interested in here. The day begins at 11.00 a.m. with their Bar Bites and wood-fired Pizzas. The Tapas kick in from mid afternoon [3.00 p.m. onwards] and an ‘a la carte’ menu, via the blackboard, is available all day. Bar food is meant to be finger food to be enjoyed whilst sipping your favourite tipple. At Bamboo Bar this is done whilst gazing out over the blue ocean. You will think you are on holidays, even if you are not! Bar Bites include Tortilla Spring Rolls [vegetables, mozzarella and guacamole], Bruschetta [prawns, tomato, shallot and garlic all diced and combined with balsamic and olive oil spread on slices of French baguette] and excellent Quesadillas, 4 quarters folded over minced chicken and onion with cheese and sliced champignons, a pile of guacamole on the side. The Tapas are really good sized snacks, top of the list are the Breaded Chicken Fingers [pictured], nicely deep-fried to a crisp, served in a basket with coriander mayonnaise

dip, they type of snack that you can just keep on eating ‘one more’! Nachos are corn tortilla chips with minced beef, jalapenos, tomato salsa, guacamole and sour cream, topped with melted cheddar cheese. Standard bar snacks include Calamari Rings [mayonnaise dip], Spicy Potato Wedges and a bowl of French Fries that are served with 3 sauces; tomato, chilli and mayonnaise. Pizzas come from the wood-fired oven next door to the bar. Standard Italian fare with Margherita, Puttanesca [anchovy, Kalamata olives, red onion, chilli pepper flakes and pepperoni], Quattro Formaggi [4 cheeses; Parmesan, mozzarella, blue and asiago], Quattro Stagioni [mushroom, ham, artichoke and salami], Al Tonno [tuna flakes, onion and black olives], Frutti di Mare [seafood] and the folded Calzone [egg, tomato and oregano]. The Vegetarian offering is covered with a mix of same. All the pizzas are thin and crisp, and served hot from the oven. Very different are the Norwegian [smoked salmon, sour cream, onions, capers and dill] and Tyrolean [prosciutto ham, blue cheese, rucola and truffle oil]. For visiting Australians what they call a Hawaiian is the Tropicana, topped with ham and pineapple with a sprinkle of oregano. There is also an a la carte menu on the blackboards. I was amazed at the serving of Snapper. A sizeable fillet, perfectly grilled, covered with a tomato salsa, with sautéed baby potatoes [cooked in their skin, the healthiest way to eat potatoes as the highest concentration of fibre is found just under the skin], and a couple of asparagus ears. An excellent main course at the incredible bargain price of only Rp.65,000++. To find this value in a leading hotel is really amazing, much cheaper than many outside restaurants, no wonder all the guests at Prama Sanur Beach tend to stay in to eat [and also the reason why so many guests visit from nearby hotels]. Other mains include a 130gm Steak, Sirloin from the Black Angus, topped with herb butter, BBQ pork Spare Ribs, Beef Burger [with streaky bacon, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, cheese and truffle oil] and the American invention of Surf and Turf, a grilled tenderloin of beef served with prawns. One of the most popular dishes in Bali seems to be the basic Cordon Bleu, crumbed chicken stuffed with ham and cheese. Very good here too! All the little things, even a Cigar Menu [5 imported cigars, also reasonably priced, a Romeo y Julietta for Rp.125,000]. They can be smoked on the outside covered terrace or at the beachfront. What a place to spend a lazy afternoon!

According to Xinran, a generation of ‘one and onlies’ dominate current day China. They are the apples of their parents’ eyes, but are burdened with high expectations and are both envied and scorned by society. This ‘selfie generation’ is both better educated but less capable of talking care of themselves or caring for others. These emerging young adults feel lost and confused; about themselves and their role in modern Chinese society. In the introduction of Buy Me the Sky, Xinran recounts an incident she witnessed on the streets of Beijing.

Fashion Siapa... ? by Bill Dalton

Mamuk Ismuntoro: Sidoarjo Mud Disaster In 2012, I visited Diana, the woman in the wedding photo that I took in 2008. She now lives with husband and her child in a better house. After the refugees received the compensation, they built a new housing. This wedding portraiture is my favorite photo in Tanah Yang Hilang. The photo was taken at refugee camp at Pasar Baru, Porong, Sidoarjo in 2008. There are many stories behind the picture. In it, you’re able to see hope and sadness at the same time. A hundred refugees attended the wedding party. At least for one day, everyone looked happy.

C/G/G-30 Sept. 15

What do you personally think was the cause of the eruption? Mamuk Ismuntoro was born and brought up in modest circumstances in Surabaya. His father was a low ranking civil servant and his mother sold vegetables in a warung in front of their home, but that didn’t prevent his hard-working parents from sending him to Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Komunikasi-AWS where he graduated with a degree in journalism in 1994. During his professional career, Mamuk traveled widely throughout Indonesia. On one dangerous assignment in Aceh in 1999, Mamuk covered the conflict between the Aceh insurgents (GAM) and soldiers of Indonesia’s Military Operation Area (DOM). Mamuk has worked for local newspapers and on commercial shoots in Kupang, Bali, Sulawesi, Biak and Sorong. His work has been published in many books including Surabaya Hors Cadre (2004), Terra Matter (2013) about the Ijen Crater and recently his most heart wrenching photographic chronicle of the victims of the Sidoarjo Mud Flow eruption in 2013. Mumuk and friends published Tanah Yang Hilang in 2015, the first photo book on the disaster. How did you become interested in photography? While I was still in high school, I began to evaluate and appreciate pictures that I saw in magazines and books. I wondered how it would be to learn how to take photos of such a high standard. I published my first photograph in the Surabaya Post while in college in 1995. What types of photography work have you done? I’ve done my share of old-fashioned shoe-leather investigative reporting. Before I became a freelancer, I contributed photos to Tempo magazine from 2008 to 2009. Beginning in 2008, I started doing annual reports and commercial photography. From 2009 to 2010, I was the photo editor for the Surabaya Post. Now I do both editorial and commercial photography. Why did you become interested in the 2006 Sidoarjo mud eruption? I’ve always been interested in social issues and wanted to express my thoughts and beliefs with my pictures. When the Sidoarjo disaster happened, we all knew that it was going to be a big issue that would attract international attention. I wanted to be one of the witnesses. I was there when the Kedungbendo villagers were fleeing the hot mud. You can see this event documented in a photo in my book. Several months later, the village totally disappeared in the mud. The victims were not just losing their homes, but also their livelihoods. I was also there when the gas installation blew up. The Government has asserted that an earthquake caused the explosion. Did you personally know any people who lost houses, properties and livelihoods?

As a documentary photographer, I’m not qualified nor do I have the authority to express an opinion about the cause of the eruption. There are many versions and explanations, both official and unofficial. My job is only to show the result of the catastrophe. Doing the course of your work, were you ever in personal danger? In 2005, I bought a h o u s e i n Ta n g g u l a n g i n i n Sidoarjo, only 3 km from eruption. When the hot mud started to flow in May 2006, I decided just to stick it out and continue to live there. Today I can sometimes still smell the gas and have been worried about my family’s health for a long time. Did you use specialized photographic equipment on the Tanah Yang Hilang project?

C/G/G-16 Sept. 15

I used a DSLR with 2 lenses, 17-35 mm and 55 mm lens. Nothing out of the ordinary or overly expensive. Was your monograph Tanah Yang Hilang selfpublished? The making of Ta n a h Ya n g Hilang was a collaborative effort supported by the non-profit Panna Institute and some good friends in Jakarta and Surabaya. We promote the publication through our fan page in Facebook. Sales of the monograph have begun to pick up. Out of 500 copies printed, we’ve sold around 200 copies so far. From photographing the aftermath of the mudflow eruption, what did you learn? Witnessing the lives of the victims of the Sidoarjo tragedy has taught me that no matter what happens we have to continue to struggle and survive. We have to keep on moving.

BA Feature Article Meandering Chefs go Ethnic in Bali – Part 2 By Ines Wynn In this second part of our series on meandering chefs, the highlight is on the ethnic side of culinary traditions. While gastronomy as a concept includes a fusion of cooking styles, origins and traditions, the purely ethnic occupies a niche all its own. Many people appreciate the singular tastes of other countries; the successful migration of cuisines from countries like Italy, China, Mexico, Thailand bear witness to that. In Bali we encounter an abundance of so-called ethnic cuisine that is often a safely watered down version of what the actual dishes taste like in their country of origin. It is assumed that original recipes should be selectively adapted to the “western” palate to be more appreciated. There are, however, quite a few chefs who do not cater to this concept and strive to present a more authentic, pure and unadulterated version of the dishes in their home countries. They do not pad their menus with other western, Asian or Indonesian selections; they stay with what they know best. They intend to serve as culinary ambassadors to share the traditions of their native countries. For them it is a given that culinary and culture are two spots of similar color. Turkish with a twist. For Kevser Dengiz the culinary road to Bali began before she was even born. Coming from a middleeastern family with deep roots in Syria who, through the vagaries of history, became Turkish citizens, she can claim a very savory ancestry steeped into the spices, aromas and tastes of those exotic countries. Growing up in Iskanderun, an ancient port city on the SE coast of the Mediterranean originally established by Alexander the Great in 333 BC and named Alexandretta, Kevser enjoyed the legacy and bene¿ts from the historical conÀuences of that region. The area at one time was part of Syria, later conquered by the Ottomans and ¿nally annexed by Turkey in 1939. Its history preordained it to a rich character as it was connected to the ancient trade routes traveled by Venetian and Genoese merchants who traded into Syria, Arabia and beyond. Due to its location and commercial activities, the area saw an inÀux of many peoples who brought their traditions and culinary tastes which coalesced in a crazy mix of Turkish, Syrian, Arabian, Greek, Assyrian, Armenian and Kurdish elements. As a young girl Kevser was permanently attached to her mother ’s and grandmother’s kitchen apron strings and spent her early years absorbing the ancestral c u l i n a r y wisdom. She loved cooking so much that she married into a family of chefs. Her father-in-law opened the ¿rst Turkish restaurant in Singapore where she moved with her husband and where she learned the full particulars of restaurant cooking. From there the couple moved to Jakarta and Kevser started a daily catering service for the Turkish Embassy. At the same time she also worked in a restaurant that adroitly blended Turkish, Moroccan and Indian food. A subsequent move to Bali allowed Kevser to realize her dream of opening her own restaurant and revert to the pure, authentic and unadulterated foods of her homeland. Tellingly, the restaurant is named Istanbul and bills itself as a mezze and kebab house, surely the most famous Turkish/middle eastern exports. The open kitchen features a Turkish style wood-¿red oven which is used extensively to grill the kebabs, bake traditional Turkish bread and various other dishes. Surprisingly, Kevser uses only basic ingredients like onion, garlic and an array of fresh and dried herbs, spices and condiments which she meticulously prepares herself. She makes all her own ingredients and uses only authentic products like Turkish olive oil and tahini as she wants to stay close to the pure Turkish traditions. Fusion is nowhere in sight. The restaurant’s decorating theme is, of course, Turkish with those gorgeous ceramic plates on the wall, decorative serving ware and posters depicting the characters of Turkish fairy tales. Even the tiles on the Àoor are authentic. The main goal for Kevser is to recreate the authentic tastes, not only of her homeland Turkey, but also specifically from the Iskanderun area where the culinary road to Bali started many,

many years ago. Georgian cuisine is as rich and complex as the history of the country, evolving through the centuries, adapting traditions as political fortunes waxed and waned, the result of the rich interplay of culinary ideas carried along the ancient trade routes by merchants and travelers alike. Some of those latterday intrepid travelers have landed in Bali and brought along the varied tastes and ingredients from their home country. Julia and Ilia, a husband and wife team of restaurateurs have established restaurant TiÀis in Umalas, so named after the old appellation of Tbilisi, capital of their native Georgia. Theirs is an old Eurasian country on the eastern shores of the Black Sea, a mountainous area once known as the land of the Kartvelians, an ethnic group of Caucasian people who settled there in Paleolithic times and proceeded to found a succession of independent kingdoms, one of which was the famed Cochin, the location of the Golden Fleece according to Greek mythology. By the 12th century, the united kingdom of Georgia was at the peak of its political and economical strength and its history continued through powerful empires until it was annexed by neighboring Russia in 1801. When the country became Christianized in the 4th century it adopted the name of Saint George but the Kartvelian language, customs and manners endured. The origin of Georgian cuisine, Julia tells me, is lost in the mists of time but due to the biodiversity of the country and its diverse climate, which ranges from humid subtropical to continental with cool summers and snowy winters, the produce of the land is bountiful and reflected in the traditional cuisine. Walnuts, chestnuts, fresh vegetables and fruit, sheep and beef are plentiful and figure high on Georgian tables. Julia, by profession an interior designer and Ilia, an economist, came to cooking in a roundabout way. Neither are professional chefs and they have wisely brought an authentic chef to manage the TiÀis kitchen. Both were brought up with a distinguishing palate and when they elected to take a break in their careers, they came to Bali a few years ago to rest and unwind but soon found themselves yearning for the speci¿c Àavors and products of their country which they did not ¿nd here. At ¿rst they attempted to make the robust cheese called imeruli, a primary ingredient in their beloved khachapuri, a traditional cheese ¿lled bread. From there they branched into other products like yoghurt and before long the idea of establishing a restaurant and share their country’s traditional recipes seemed like the logical choice for a second career. The TiÀis menu reÀects the varied tastes of their home country and they use a profusion of ingredients like walnuts, oils and vinegar imported from Georgia or Russia to make their delicious appetizers, lamb from Australia to make shashlich kebabs and local vegetables, herbs and spices. Tarragon Lemonade, thyme tea, walnut & tarragon salads, grapeleaf wrapped dolmas; they all have the stamp of that culinary tradition that is so authentic and ethnic, neither Eurasian nor continental, but with a taste all of its own. The traditional breads are baked in an authentic tandoor style oven, called a tome. Chef Mzia is the hand on the pan and the fury behind the stove. Though she speaks neither English nor Indonesian, she manages the kitchen staff with a dexterity that is unequalled. Mzia, Julia says, was the best cook in their native village, which is the reason they wanted her to be their chef and so they cajoled and pleaded with her until she agreed to come and take charge of the TiÀis kitchen. Mzia knows no gastronomy besides her own, speaks of no culinary inÀuences other than the century old traditions of her country and her repertoire is the envy of many ethnic cooks. Check out some of her mouthwatering dishes on the TiÀis Georgian Cuisine in Bali Facebook page. Kosher in Bali. Shelley, the petite wife of well-known Soleman Robert Epstone, also happens to be one of the few kosher chefs in Bali. She started her culinary career at age 30 with a cookery course taught by Prue Leith, a renowned restaurateur, caterer, television star, journalist, cookbook writer, novelist and founder of the famous Prue Leith Chef’s

Academy in London. “I did the course in the evenings,” says Shelley, “after putting in a full day at British Vogue where I was working as a stylist in the fashion department. I discovered cooking was fun and I used to practice on friends and family. “Later Shelley actually decided to make a profession of it, and she signed on with an agency to cater private dinner parties and events. “Eventually I decided it wasn’t for me because I had to do all the work, from shopping, prepping, cooking and washing up too!!!” In her next venture she became the Chef for well known and respected gold bullion bank Moccata and Goldschmidt in London where she cooked directors lunches and daily lunches for over 50 staff. “I had a great team of young people to work with. It was fun, but it was sort of part time, and I really wanted to make a career of cooking”. The search was on and Shelley ended up as the Chef of the British Ambassador to Israel. “I had to learn how to cook Kosher food, as people s u c h a s G o l d a M e i r, Moyshe Dayan, Rabin and other notables came to the Embassy’s functions and dinner parties”. Kosher cuisine is derived from cooking traditions that evolved over many centuries, since biblical times, and dispersed worldwide by the Jewish Diaspora. Based on Jewish dietary laws and shaped by Sabbath traditions, it has developed into the modern Israeli fusion cuisine, adopting and adapting elements of the many distinctive styles such as Ashkenazi and Sephardic, and incorporating other Middle Eastern fare and international cuisines. The laws of keeping kosher prescribe what foods are permitted and how food must be prepared. Certain foods, notably pork and shell¿sh, are forbidden; meat and dairy may not be combined at the same meal, and meat must be ritually slaughtered and salted to remove all traces of blood. In addition different cutlery and china must be used for meat, ¿sh or milk products. “It gets a bit complicated”, says Shelley, “although I am lucky enough to be Jewish, so I had a basic idea what this involved.” Shelley had her share of memorable experiences. “The Embassy at one point invited the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra to a garden party at the Residence on a Friday afternoon, which, in Israel, is the start of the weekend. “So my staff and I prepared fabulous canapés for the party. When the guests left, we cleared up and threw any leftovers in the rubbish bins along with cigarette butts and any other debris as no food could be kept over the weekend. As I was ¿nishing, Madame Ambassador waltzed into the kitchen mentioning that she and her husband didn’t eat anything, and requested a platter of food. I had no choice and retrieved the canapés that still looked reasonably ok and served them. An hour later she brought the empty platter to the kitchen and proclaimed them delicious!!” Shelley’s stint as the ambassadorial chef had a few downsides, most of which had to do with a rigid protocol she found hard to digest so she soon went looking for a more fun-sided assignment which presented itself when she started work for the Israeli ¿lm industry; that job was de¿nitely more suited to her feisty and adventurous temperament. Many years later, when married to Robert, they moved to Shanghai where she opened a business called ‘I love food’. The place catered a full menu of sandwiches to various of¿ces in the central business district. ‘It didn’t last long,” says Shelley, “but it was fun. Just a shame, a little bit before its time, I think.” Shelley is currently taking an extended break in Bali where she cooks for private parties and for fun, and where she is diligently working on writing The Fairy Cook Book, a fun and art-¿lled whimsical food-for-the-soul chicken cookbook which she is planning to publish in the near future.

BA FEATURE - Chefs Continued from page 50 Basque food is served at Miura Pintxos Bar & Grill, newly opened on Dyana Pura in Seminyak, in the authentic tradition of the Basque country, a region that is located around the western end of the Pyrenees on the Bay of Biscayne and straddles parts of north-central Spain and south-western France. The Basque people, who call themselves Euskaldunak in their own distinctive language, are an ancient ethnic group dating from Stone Age times and their unique language predates the indo-european languages that came later. Though language is an important symbol of identity, food is almost as essential in de¿ning Basque culture. Both rural and sea traditions are represented in the various dishes that make up the cuisine. “Our menu” says Miura’s chef who modestly declined to be named, “includes typical Basque fare like grilled meats and ¿sh, marmitado (tuna stew), sheep cheese such as idiazabal and Roncal, Iberico ham and a variety of our signature pinxtos (pronounced PEENchohs), the Basque equivalent of tapas.” Tapas have become very popular in Bali. They are the perfect grazing food and the popular companions of a chilled beverage. Traditional Basque pintxos, however, are their own distinct dishes. Typically they are oversized and include shrimp, squid, anchovies, stuffed mussels, small Basque peppers stuffed with cod¿sh, Spanish omelet with spicy sauce; txipirones (squid) served in its ink, Basque cheese such as idiazabal and Roncal, and of course paella with txistora (Basque sausage traditionally made with pork, fat, garlic, and salt all marinated in paprika. Miura’s chef is still in the early stages of establishing himself on the Bali restaurant scene. He came here in a roundabout way like most all of the featured chefs in this article series and boasts a long list of experiences. A chance encounter led him to Bali where a young Spanish entrepreneur was seeking to make a sizeable impact on the culinary scene by establishing a Spanish-Basque eatery offering authentic fare. This ¿t in well with his own determination to popularize the unique culinary traditions of his Basque heritage and create a Basque niche, capitalizing on the pintxos that have become his trademark. The chef uses a majority of locally sourced ingredients, only importing what is uniquely Basque or Spanish such as Iberico ham, wines, and other ingredients which are dif¿cult to obtain locally. The restaurant offers a welcoming environment with an open kitchen, a cozy dining room and an outdoor bar area. The theme, of course, is all about the Basque culture, its food & drink, and the celebration of life. From the Spanish-modern architecture to the interior décor, the pride of being Basque is displayed in the wall decorations depicting scenes from Basque and Spanish culture including a striking sculpture reminiscent of Picasso’s famous Guernica. All the cocktails are named after different breeds of bull, the animal that most typi¿es Spain. Miura Bar & Grill wants to impart a good dose of Basque culture to its patrons and to cater to the palates of those who want to sample an ethnic cuisine that expresses passion and a taste for life on the edge.

Local News Unmarried Couples in Bali Could be Arrested for Sleeping Together Indonesian plans to make cohabiting outside marriage a crime, jail adulterers and stop the open sale of condoms are causing alarm in Bali where the laws would also apply to tourists. The island’s politicians and tourism leaders are sounding alarm bells over the controversial proposed new laws, saying the State is interfering in issues of morality, which could drive away tourists. The changes are part of a widespread revision of Indonesia’s Criminal Code, known as the Kuhap, which was last revised in the 1950s. The 500-page document, which contains more than 750 articles, is currently before the country’s lawmakers for debate. Under the proposals, cohabiting outside marriage becomes a crime carrying a one-year jail sentence and would apply to tourists as well as Indonesians. The punishment for adultery goes up from nine months jail to five years. Tourism chiefs are concerned that if passed and enforced, by arresting tourists sleeping together and checking into hotels as couples, this would be a major disaster for Bali’s travel industry, which is the lifeblood of the island’s economy. And moves to ban the open sale of contraceptives, which are currently prominently displayed and sold in minimarkets and convenience stores everywhere, have also been criticized. Indonesia’s National Commission on Human Rights warns that the controversial aspects of the new code risk returning the country to the 16th Century and driving away tourists who face jail for sleeping together outside marriage. At its most extreme it could even mean police raids on hotels.

Commission member Dianto Bachriadi says the State should not be regulating morality and that if passed, the new laws would mean members of the public are spied upon in their private lives. Mr. Bachriadi says that if the article on cohabitation is not dropped it would apply to foreign tourists in Bali. Bali politician Ketut Kariyasa Adnyana says the Balinese do not want the new laws and the legislature will convey these views to Jakarta. He said it was common knowledge that many tourists in Bali are not married but come together and share hotel rooms on holiday. The Bali Tourism Board chairman Ida Bagus Ngurah Wijaya agrees. Social groups warn such a law is a setback in the prevention of HIV and AIDS and called for the government to focus on crimes like murder and corruption instead of moral issues. The Institute for Criminal Justice Reform, which is co-coordinating an NGO response to the new criminal code, says it smacks of over criminalization. The new code also makes black magic and witchcraft, practiced widely across Indonesia, a crime, with a jail term of five years for using black magic to cause illness, death or suffering. Indonesia’s parliament is notoriously slow moving and the new criminal code is not expected to be finalized and passed until the end of 2017. By this time, the Balinese authorities hope the more controversial aspects will have been deleted during the consultation phase. September 19th 2015)

Lindsay Sandiford Meets Granddaughter after Execution Notice A British grandmother sentenced to die for drug smuggling has had a heart-wrenching visit on death row in Bali from the two-year-old granddaughter she had never met. Lindsay Sandiford’s granddaughter Ayla rushed out to Bali with her parents last week after the 59-year-old’s lawyers were told her name was on a list of ten drug traffickers scheduled to be shot in the next batch of executions in September. Mrs. Sandiford pleaded with her family to bring Ayla to Bali so she could meet the toddler, who was born seven months after her grandmother’s arrest in May 2012. Since then, however, Mrs. Sandiford’s legal team has been told by Indonesian government officials that there will be a temporary suspension of executions until the end of this year, but that she could still face the firing squad as early as next January. During several emotional meetings last week, Mrs. Sandiford hugged and played with Ayla in a visiting room at Kerobokan prison and was reunited with her 26-year-old son Lewis, Ayla’s father, for the first time since her arrest. British pastor Dee Stepo, who lives in Australia and runs a fund-raising Facebook page to support Mrs. Sandiford’s legal battle, held a blessing service in Bali for the family on Friday as Ayla and her parents made their final prison visit before leaving the island.

Prisoners are allowed to spend much of their last 72 hours with their families before they face the firing squad, but she said: ‘I won’t let them go through that circus. I want them to remember me the way they’ve seen me now.’ Sandiford, of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, was sentenced to death in January 2013 after being caught with a suitcase containing 10.5lb of cocaine after flying to Bali from Bangkok, Thailand. She claims she was forced to carry the drugs after threats to the life of her younger son and was sentenced to death despite co-operating with police in a sting operation to arrest people higher up the syndicate. The plot’s alleged ringleader, Briton Julian Ponder - who conducted a behind-bars romance with British Vice-Consul Alys Harahap that led to her sacking - is expected to walk free next year after serving a six-year term with remission. Another of the men suspected of masterminding the smuggling plot, 43-year-old Paul Beales, of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, was sentenced to just four years and is expected to be freed and deported before the end of this year. Ponder’s former partner Rachel Dougall, also initially suspected to be a senior member of the drugs smuggling syndicate, was released last year after serving just one year on a reduced charge of failing to report a crime.

At the end of the ceremony, Mrs. Sandiford broke down in tears, hugging and kissing Ayla as the family was ushered out of the visiting area by guards after the specially arranged three-hour gathering.

The British government has repeatedly refused to fund Sandiford’s legal battle against her death sentence despite a recommendation from five Supreme Court judges in London who said ‘substantial mitigating factors’ had been overlooked in her original trial.

Speaking after her granddaughter left Bali yesterday morning, Mrs. Sandiford said: ‘I’m so glad I had the chance to meet her. Ayla is the most important thing in my life and no one can take this away from me now. She’s an absolute delight – she’s the sweetest baby I’ve ever met.’

Indonesian president Joko Widodo has ordered the execution of 14 drug traffickers so far this year - including Australian Andrew Chan in May. He was a friend and mentor to Mrs. Sandiford in Kerobokan. Widodo insists there will be no clemency for convicted traffickers.

Mrs. Sandiford praised prison staff for allowing Ayla and her parents to make daily visits and for allowing the blessing ceremony. ‘They have been incredibly good to me,’ she said.

Sandiford’s final appeal is expected to focus on the recommendation of the prosecutor at her original trial that she should serve a 15-year term, as well as the disparity in sentencing. It is expected to be held before the end of this year if she succeeds in raising the necessary funds.

In July, Mrs. Sandiford was first given a date for her execution when she learnt from her Indonesian lawyers she was listed for September 21 along with nine other convicted drug traffickers, eight of them foreigners. She insisted she would not let her family return to see her if her execution was confirmed.

Sandiford’s legal team has found an unlikely ally in Harahap. She has offered to give testimony concerning Ponder, sources told The Mail on Sunday. (September 12th 2015)

Toddler Drowned in Fish Pond A two-year-old boy has drowned in a fishpond at his family home on Wednesday (9/9). Doctors at Sanglah hospital battled to save the boy but were unable to resuscitate him and pronounced him dead soon after. The boy’s mother was taking a shower at the time of the incident. The water feature at the front of their Denpasar home contained less than half a meter of water when the boy was found face down and lifeless in the pond. It is believed the boy slipped on the edge of the pool as he had injuries around the mouth. (September 11th 2015) Qantas to resume regular flights to Bali for summer Qantas is going back to Bali for the summer, seven years after it surrendered the route to Jetstar. Apart from a couple of “mercy flights” during the Bali ash cloud disruption, Qantas has not flown regularly to the Indonesian holiday isle since October 2008. But don’t expect to snap up a cheap sale fare. Return fares on the premium carrier will start at $733 - compared with around $400 on Jetstar, $300 on Indonesia AirAsia X and $620 on Virgin Australia. Qantas International CEO Gareth Evans said they were pleased to give customers the option of a “full service, premium travel option direct to Bali”. “We know how attractive Bali is as a holiday destination, so through the efficient use of our aircraft, we’ve unlocked more domestic Boeing 737 flying time, delivering on a strategy to offer a dynamic and flexible network,” Mr. Evans said. Qantas will operate four services a week or a total of 33 return services between Sydney and Bali on a Boeing 737 with seating for 168 passengers, including 12 in Business Class. Flights will operate on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays from December 4 to January 29. The resumption of Qantas flights between Sydney and Bali will make the route among the most competitive, with Jetstar, Virgin Australia, Indonesia AirAsia X and Garuda Indonesia also flying direct services. (September 16th 2015) Killing of Endangered Sumatran Elephant Yongki in Indonesia Sparks Anger A critically endangered Sumatran elephant that had patrolled Indonesia’s jungles to help protect threatened habitats has been killed for his tusks, an official says, sparking a surge of anger online. Yongki, a tame creature who worked with teams of elephant keepers, was found dead close to the camp where he lived in a national park on the western island of Sumatra, park official Timbul Batubara said. His one-meter tusks had been hacked off, leaving just bloody stumps, and his legs still bore the chains put on him by his keepers to ensure he stayed in the camp. There are estimated to be less than 3,000 Sumatran elephants remaining in the wild and they are frequently targeted by poachers for their tusks, which fetch a high price for use in Chinese traditional medicine. Batubara, from the Bukit Barisan Selatan national park, said it was not yet known how Yongki was killed. His body, which was found on Friday (18/9), bore no bullet wounds but he had a blue tongue. Elephants have in the past been poisoned. Yongki, aged about 35, was well known among the local “mahouts” or elephant keepers. Nazaruddin, the head of the Indonesian Mahout Forum, said keepers in the area were “very shaken”. “We are mourning the lost of an elephant who has been helping us in handling conflicts and helping forest rangers patrol the forest, and he was a good elephant,” Nazaruddin, who goes by one name, said. The elephant was involved in patrols aimed at reducing tensions, with the tame elephants stopping wild elephants from rampaging through villages. The patrols also help rangers keep a lookout for illegal logging and poaching that threaten Indonesia’s vast rain forests. “It is time we enforce life sentences for hunters of legally protected animals,” said Facebook user Aprilia Putri. Protection group the International Union for Conservation of Nature classifies the Sumatran elephant as critically endangered. (September 21st 2015)

Chinese Man Accosted by Immigration at Ngurah Rai Chinese national Zhang Tao claims that he was blackmailed and violently threatened by immigration officials after arriving at Ngurah Rai Airport on China Southern flight CZ3005 inbound from Beijing on the early morning of Saturday (12/9). Tao in his report to police affirmed that at approximately 3am local Bali time he approached an immigration counter to process his visa on arrival and was allegedly asked by an official to pay an additional sum of 500 Taiwanese dollars (roughly US$15) on top of the visa fees he had already paid for. It is understood Tao paid 100 Taiwanese dollars, however the officer again refused and asked him to pay an additional 100. Tao then met the officer’s request and handed over another 100 Taiwanese dollars. Once he had all his documents processed Tao claims he passed through customs with no issues however while waiting for his airport pickup he was escorted away by two airport guards to a private room in the airport parking lot. Tao alleges that the two guards demanded to check his bags for narcotics, however he again refused pleading that the necessary checks had been performed by customs. “At this point in time the man started to record and capture images of the two guard’s faces on his mobile phone,” said the representative. It was reported that one of the guards allegedly snatched Tao’s iPhone 6 from his hands and fled with his accomplice as a group of six other Chinese tourists had witnessed the events and were quickly approaching. Later in the day Tao put forth his statement at Ngurah Rai Police Station. The Chief of Class 1 Immigration at Ngurah Rai, I Yohanes Widodo, has since confirmed that an investigation has commenced into the events. “I was surprised and shocked by the report. Of course we are going to conduct a thorough investigation as we do not want the image of Bali to be corrupt,” said Widodo. (September 14th 2015) Bali Autopsy Rejected for Australian Tourist The family of an Australian man who died after falling through a glass panel in a Bali hotel room have declined to authorize an autopsy, say police. Daniel Evans, 24, of Perth, died from blood loss after suffering severe cuts to his chest and arm in the accident about 7pm on Wednesday (16/9). Mr. Evans’ girlfriend, Chelsey Renae Branson, says she and her mother assisted Mr. Evans into the hotel and heard glass break while she was putting the couple’s child to bed in another room. “The family came here to see the body of Daniel and they conveyed their rejection for autopsy,” the head of Sanglah Hospital’s forensic installation, Ida Bagus Putu Alit, said on Saturday. Mr. Evans was initially rushed to Siloam Hospital with a possible “slashed artery” before being referred to Sanglah Hospital in Kuta because of the extent of his injuries. It is thought he died on the way to Sanglah Hospital. Mr. Ida said at the time Mr. Evans had returned to the hotel under the influence of alcohol after getting a tattoo with two friends that afternoon. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has confirmed it is providing consular assistance to Mr. Evans’ family. (September 20th 2015) Fire Consumes Seven Shops - Tuban A fire in the Tuban Plaza shopping center on Jalan Bypass Ngurah Rai in Tuban reportedly destroyed seven shops on Thursday (10/9). The fire is believed to have started at the post office in the shopping complex where there were piles of cardboard and packing materials. Firefighters responded

to the fire and assisted by police and local residents, were able to bring the fire under control by 10.30am. Offices destroyed in the fire included the post office, the office for Angkasa Pura, and a branch of BTPN bank. Investigators are still trying to determine the exact cause of the fire. (September 11th 2015) Inmates Wife Sneaks into Terrorists “Hi-Security” Cell Officials at a prison in East Java have been left red-faced after a woman believed to be the wife of a terrorist convict managed to sneak into his cell and spend an undisclosed number of days inside. Heri Prasetyo, the warden of Porong Penitentiary in Sidoarjo, outside Surabaya, said over the weekend that guards found the woman hiding in the toilet of the cell occupied by Abdullah Ummamity, who is serving a life sentence for terrorism-related offenses. Officers made the discovery in the early hours of Friday (11/9), as they were preparing to transfer Ummamity and three other terror convicts to other prisons because of their history of radicalizing fellow inmates at Porong. Guards had previously found bomb-making equipment, books on jihad and Islamic State flags in the men’s cells. It remains unclear how they managed to obtain bomb-making material inside a prison. Heri said the woman, who he declined to name, appeared to have stayed in Ummamity’s cell for “more than a day,” although he refused to give a specific number. He acknowledged the “blunder” on the part of the prison authorities, but noted that there were only 17 guards to watch a prison population of 1,193. (September 15th 2015)

Australia-Indonesia Relations Likely to Improve After Abbott Exodus C/NV/U-02 Sept. 15

An expected foreign policy pivot under the guidance of new Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, will see Australia pay particular attention to mending and maintaining relations with China and Indonesia, regional pundits have predicted. Turnbull, who rose to the country’s top job after trumping former Prime Minister Tony Abbott in a party room vote late Monday night (14/9), has been a long-term supporter of Asian business in Australia and a vocal advocate of the China Australia Free Trade Agreement. While Turnbull has indicated continued support for the “boat turn backs” policy, which sees asylum seekers entering Australian waters towed into Indonesian waters by local law enforcement, experts have suggested his style of diplomacy may weather the controversy better than that of his predecessor. Evi Fitrani, international relations head at the University of Indonesia heralded the change of leadership as a likely improvement to relations. Sydney-based Tom Wheelwright, a managing director of BowerGroup Asia focusing on government relations in the region, told ChannelNews Asia that his Asian counterparts would likely welcome Turnbull’s pragmatic and respectful style. “The big change we’ll see is that there will be no more three-word slogans to confuse or irritate our Asian neighbors,” he said. “I think we’ll see more substance to foreign policy and I think Julie Bishop will have a stronger hand with foreign policy and less interference from domestic considerations.” Abbott’s time at the helm is marred by a series of events marking a particularly tumultuous period in the Australia-Indonesia relationship, from a phone hacking scandal targeting Indonesia’s political leaders to the #CoinsforAbbott campaign which saw thousands collect rupiah coins to “pay back” Australian aid to Indonesia after the then-prime minister linked the 2004 Aceh tsunami to the Bali Nine executions.

Andy sponsored by Herbalife and whose personal best in the Olympic distance event is 2 hours and 4 minutes, was the first Indonesian to win the Bintan Triathlon in its 11 year history back in May, however that result was not good enough for the Indonesian sports bureaucracy, who decided he was not good enough and did not to send Andy to the SEA Games. As Andy commented back in May “My disappointment seems quite legitimate as I have been preparing myself to be able to compete in the SEA Games in 2015 since almost a year ago when Singapore as the host announced that triathlon will be added in the 2015 SEA Games”. Wibowo, who travels the world doing 10-13 Triathlon’s a year, is looking forward to prove the selectors wrong here in Bali.

Citadels of Art: Puri Lukisan & Museum Pasi¿ka In the old days, the charming approach to the oldest art museum in Bali was via a narrow pathway that led down over a swaying suspension bridge, then climbed steeply up a stairway to a leafy hilltop garden. The esoteric collections of Puri Lukisan were displayed in three dilapidated buildings spread out on different levels. Wandering the grounds on that mid-morning summer day four decades ago, my presence was eventually noticed by a young attendant who handed me a ticket. The ¿rst visitor of the day, I paid the Rp100 entrance fee. The garden was a virtual ornithological sanctuary with oriental white-eyes and yellow bitterns feeding on berries in the trees. Serene rice paddies and wallowing water buffaloes could be seen from the back windows. Because of the lack of airconditioning in Bali’s humid, tropical climate, the works in the exhibit halls had fallen into serious decay. Green fungus was creeping under the glass and eating away at canvases holding priceless paintings by Lempad and Sobrat. Spanning the years between the 1930s and the contemporary era, the museum housed one of the island’s ¿nest selections of modern paintings, drawings, sculptures and woodcarvings, a time warp from the prewar (1930–1945) to the postwar (1945–2000’s) periods, including superb examples from all of Bali’s artistic schools – Pita Maha, Sanur, Batuan, Ubud, Young Artist and Keliki –covering the whole evolution into modern idiom. The Puri Lukisan (“Palace of Paintings”) was founded in 1956 by Tjokorde Gede Agung Sukawati, the raja of Ubud and an avid patron of the arts, and Rudolph Bonnet (1895-1979), a Dutchman who devoted much of his life to studying and preserving the unique qualities of Balinese painting. The collection started with a donation of paintings from Bonnet. Over time, other artists and friends of the museum donated more artworks. In 2008, Puri Lukisan celebrated its 50th anniversary with two major exhibitions: the Pioneers of Balinese Painting from the Rudolf Bonnet collection (Leiden University Museum) and the world premier of the Ida Bagus Made Estate collection. In 2008, a new wing (South Gallery), an open meeting hall and a museum cafe were added. Today, Ubud’s principle art museum is located smack in the middle of Ubud on Jl. Ubud Raya through a grand and elaborate gapura split gateway. The comprehensive collection of hundreds of sculptures and paintings displayed in chronological order is housed in four large cool buildings set in gardens of fountains, Àowering shrubs, statues and lotus ponds be¿tting a palace, a perfect respite from the tourist hordes 500 meters away. If you visit only one museum in Ubud, this should be it. Included are painters I Gusti Lempad, Ida Bagus Gelgel, Dewa Batuan, Ida Bagus Made, Ida Bagus Nadera, as well as sculptures of I Wayan Pendet, I Nyoman Cokot, I Bagus Nyana, I Mangku Tama, and I Ketut Tjedeng. The high class pieces old and new from different eras are well maintained and curated with good signage and interesting explanations in English and Indonesian and labels for every piece. My plan was to make a methodical tour of the whole complex, but I got waylaid in the north building where the Pita Maha Gallery displays a number of traditional prewar classics as well as the outstanding I Gusti Nyoman Lempad collection. The exceptional works of I Gusti Made Deblog (1910–1978) portray a passionate sense of the beauty of nature, are rendered in re¿ned detail, with many depicting figures drawn from the Hindu legends set in lush forests with magical nymphs and other forest dwellers. Another painter who stood out was Ida Bagus Gelgel (1900– 1937) from Kamasan village, far away from direct western inÀuence. His work of Priest Dharmaswami, painted in 1935 using naturals dyes

on paper, is one of the museum’s masterpieces. It tells the story of a priest who rescued a monkey, a snake and a tiger from a well. I ended my visit in the fourth and last pavilion known as the Founders Gallery that holds a mix of photography, sculpture and some striking paintings that illustrate the museum’s history, the history of art in Bali, the lives of Rudolph Bonnet and Walter Spies, letters from Senator Robert Kennedy and the truly groundbreaking but somewhat faded works that were none the less digni¿ed and beautiful in spite of their age. Some specimens on bark and cloth date back to more than 500 years old. Taking a break from the never-ending cascade of great works of art, I took a stroll in the relaxing gardens - alone worth the price of admission – where I could barely hear the sputtering motorbikes. Kids were wandering the gardens and delighting in the lotus fishpond with landmark sculpture peeking out from banyan trees roots (look for the hidden lady). This cynosure of peace was brightened by the sound of a gamelan orchestra rehearsing on an open-air bale. Not sensing the passage of time, I spent an hour in the café watching a light rain quietly fall. Practicalities Puri Lukisan, Jl.

Museum Pasi¿ka What a discovery! You don’t expect a gem like this in Nusa Dua. Incongruously located in the heart of Bali’s premier tourist enclave, I ¿rst mistook this world-class gallery of fine art for a c o n v e n t i o n c e n t e r. We circled the same block several times on one-way streets. Finally, catching sight of the grand and classic building, we pulled quickly into the empty parking lot. We were the only visitors, as though we had arranged a private viewing. We wandered around the giant, empty complex alone amidst the august and unguarded company. In the museums of Europe, artistic creations of this caliber are cordoned off by braided ropes with black suited guards to either side. Although relatively new in comparison to most of the island’s museums, Museum Pasi¿ka is the home of an extensive and extremely diverse collection of artworks showcasing the multifaceted traditions of the people of Indo-Paci¿c region, a specialized collection unavailable nowhere else in Bali. With over 600 works on permanent display, the museum is an important complement to the scores of public and private museums in Bali. Each of the 11 pavilions displays representative works of a speci¿c theme, geographic area, school of art or specialty: Indonesian, Asian, Italian, Dutch, Indo-European, Indochina (including Cambodia and Vietnam), Polynesian and Paci¿c (mainly Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea) and more. This manageable series of exhibit halls can be “done” in an hour, but I wanted to take the measure of each work. If it didn’t move me, I moved on to the next. The themes in each spacious room was well chosen and the presentation carefully thought-out, though some ¿rst-class works were hung too closely together – at times only 30 cm apart. This proximity I felt did not

honor the skill of the artists nor the beauty of the individual paintings. The museum was custom built for exhibiting art with tall, white walls. The large, breezy spaces Àowed easily from one to the other, but I yearned for more detailed labeling and more detailed background on the artists. The written explanations, the subject and the time line were dif¿cult to read and less than fully informative. The museum catalog is out of print and no brochures were available. The staff was almost non-existent with apparently no budget for tour guides (and gratefully no shop full of tourist paraphernalia). But these do not detract from the impact that this brilliant showroom of international art, history and culture has on the beholder. We gasped silently at creations of the many great masters representing a wide cross section of eras and nationalities. The museum regularly hosts cultural events which promote the culture of Bali and Indonesia, drawing visitors from schools, area hotels, the tourism industry, diplomatic missions, travelers and art lovers from all over the world. Among the incredible blend of Balinese culture and that of the whole Paci¿c region, there were also scores of Indonesian paintings, including works by Affandi, Sonnega and rare pieces by Raden Saleh, Indonesia’s ¿rst modern artist. I learned about artists who lived and worked in Bali during the Dutch colonial period, before the Japanese occupation and up until konfrontasi. I stood trans¿xed before Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur’s Women Offering to the Sacred Pond. European classics, particularly Dutch, Belgium, German, French, Italian and Indo-European painters were all there, including a few post impressionist originals and Willem Hofker, the tireless admirer of Balinese women. Also of note were pieces by Australian artist Donald Friend as well as some of his local artifacts. There was a group of rare Gauguin woodcarvings created during his sojourn in the Marquesas and even a paper cut and gouache by Matisse. One couldn’t help but be impressed by the sheer number and quality of not only paintings, but textiles, tapa bark cloths, pottery, masks, costumes, statues, sculptures, carved woodwork, kitchen utensils and ceremonial artifacts like a Balinese Barong mask. We reveled in the luxury of not having to deal with the crowds, the usual gallery or museum experience. In close proximity to resort hotels, shopping and ¿ne dining establishments, the museum offered a welcome diversion. But why were we the only ones here? This phenomenal collection must be Bali’s best-kept cultural secret. Perhaps tourists are led to believe that good art can only be found in Ubud. What a shame that this unsung museum is under appreciated. Anyone with an interest in the art and artists of Asia/Paci¿c region – and art in general - would surely want to explore the many truly unique pieces in this magni¿cent collection. Best of all, you don’t need to know about art to enjoy it. Practicalities Museum Pasi¿ka, Nusa Dua, tel. 0361-774-935, email: info@ museum-pasi¿ka.com, website www.museum-pasi¿ka.com. The museum is a short taxi drive, shuttle or walk from the area’s beach resorts. The Bali Collection, the enclave’s main hub for shops and restaurants, is about a ten-minute walk. The galleries are not air-conditioned, so visit during morning hours. Photos of the Paci¿c and Balinese artifacts, ceremonial accouterments and costumes are allowed, but photos of the paintings are not allowed. <pakbill2003@yahoo.com> Copyright © 2015 Bill Dalton You can read all past articles of Bali Explorer at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz
