Overheard in Canggu: Incident reporting app aims to raise safety awareness in community awareness on matters of safety for the community; not only in Canggu but elsewhere in Bali. “There had been some conversation[s] amongst the community about various incidents happening in Canggu and beyond,” an admin of @overheard_in_canggu, who wishes to remain anonymous, told Coconuts Bali via Instagram.
The Overheard fad certainly did not miss Bali, and since earlier this year, Instagram account @overheard_in_canggu has been providing us with entertaining snippets of conversations heard by passersby in the popular spot of Canggu. Now, a newly launched incident reporting app of the same name and by the same people behind the “overheard” Instagram account is taking it to the next level and aiming to raise
“We wanted to create a safe, and anonymous, space for people to be able to log incidents so we could provide some form of visibility to the community,” they added. The app gathers user-generated data on incidents, so anyone who has experienced any theft, petty crime, or assault can submit incident forms through the app, along with the time and place. It’s important to note that the app isn’t linked to any authorities in Bali, so reporting an incident here is not equivalent to notifying the police. With live tracking on reports and locations, the app shows hot spots of locations where people may want to be extra

cautious or avoid altogether, and even the times of when it is recommended to do so. According to the app’s FAQs, users can also log incidents outside of Canggu, such as in Uluwatu or Ubud. In a blog post, the people behind Overheard in Canggu noted that “the last thing we want to do is spread fear” in the area, whereas they do want to suggest some safety tips, which include utilizing services from ride-hailing apps like Gojek, and having a go-to person to message before and after you travel; you know, the important basics. According to @overheard_in_canggu, the app has so far been well-received in the first week since it’s been launched — and at the time of publication, we can already see that over 50 incidents have been reported, ranging from sexual assault, theft, and physical assault. For the time being, the app developers say they are not planning on sharing the data with authorities, but said they are open to receiving input from their community and followers. (coconuts.co)

Jerinx says he’s willing to delete his social media accounts if his detainment gets suspended He has been detained for more than a month now, with a previous request to suspend his detainment rejected, as authorities were concerned that he may repeat his actions. He has since submitted another request, which judges said will be considered.
The trial of I Gede Ari Astina, who is more popularly known as Jerinx, continued virtually yesterday, with the defendant using the occasion to say he’s willing to delete his social media accounts in the hopes that he could be granted suspension of detainment. “If it’s required, I am ready to delete my social media account, should it be feared that I could repeat what I did,” Jerinx told the Denpasar Court yesterday.
Jerinx is the drummer of arguably Indonesia’s biggest pop-punk band Superman Is Dead (SID). He previously gained a reputation for activism in his fight against the controversial Benoa Bay reclamation in Bali. The 43-year-old Balinese musician is on trial for alleged defamation and hate speech, over a social media post deemed insulting by the Balinese chapter of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI). In a post uploaded to his Instagram account @jrxsid on June 13, Jerinx accused IDI of being “flunkeys” for the THE CANGGU WEEKLY, 25 Sep - 02 Oct 2020
World Health Organization (WHO). He said that tests to detect COVID-19 are inaccurate and questioned why the association and hospitals in Indonesia are making testing a requirement for mothers who are giving birth. Rapid tests are indeed an inaccurate means of screening for the coronavirus, a matter that health experts in Indonesia have also pointed out over the past couple of months. However, the test is still required for many administrative requirements in the country, including for travel and women who are giving birth in hospitals. Compounding the issue is that Jerinx’s vocal rejection against rapid tests happened along with his active sharing and endorsement of COVID-19-related conspiracy theories on social media, including calls for people to stop wearing masks during the pandemic.
