Rabies epidemic in Klungkung intensifies as owner gets bitten by her own dog
A Balinese woman collapsed after being bitten by her own rabies-infected dog at her home in the village of Tegak, Klungkung, on Friday. The news comes less than a month after nine Klungkung villages—not including Tegak—were declared to be “rabies red zones,” as reported by Jawa Pos.
The victim, 54-year old Ni Made Susilawati, suffered severe wounds to the hand, which is considered a high risk area, and as such received both anti-rabies serum (SAR) and vaccine (VAR) at Klungkung II Health Center, according to a report by Bali Post. Meanwhile, the poor animal had to be put down, as confirmed yesterday by the head of Klungkung Agriculture Service, Ida Bagus Juanida. In efforts to stem the outbreak, officers from the Klungkung Agricultural Service carried out 120 vaccinations on dogs in Tegak village yesterday. Tragically, 16 street dogs, suspected of being infected with rabies, were euthanized. With Friday’s case in mind, Juanida stressed the importance of regular
vaccinations and keeping pet dogs on a tighter leash, noting that even pet dogs, when allowed to mingle with wild street dogs, can become infected. With an estimated 500,000 stray dogs roaming the streets of Bali, rabies is not a new problem. In 2015, 15 Bali residents died as a result of rabid dog bites. Since then, cases have declined thanks to the mass rabies eradication program, carried out by the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Welfare in 2017.
According to the ministry’s report, the sweep saw 85 percent of the stray dog population across 716 Bali villages vaccinated against the virus. (coconuts.co)

4 THE SEMINYAK WEEKLY NEW IN THE GU: HUMAN BEAN If location location location really does matter, then the hottest neighbourhood in the area is currently Pererenan, and it’s definitely getting hot up in there! The once sleepy village is slowly rising in ranks as the most desired residential area, and we don’t blame the pererenan-people - there are some cool things happening behind the little rice field shortcut!
You are not in
And by cool things we mean @human bean. This new cafe has all the trimmings to become our favourite P-village hang out, with amazing food and breezy interiors and a coffee menu to die for... (Maple Brew sounds exactly as syrupy and delicious as it is in reality…) Though it may be a little bit out of our daily stomping grounds, we have officially fallen in love with Human Bean. The food options are just a little bit more special than at your average neighbourhood cafe, and you can bet that any spot that serves their coffees double shot as a default get extra brownie points from our team! Whether you’re on the hunt of a quick early morning brekkie, a dragged out brunch

with the girls or a late afternoon meal just because foooooood ! , Human Bean is the way to go. Our top choices for breakfast are the Green Omelette (Spirulina eggs with kale, feta and mushrooms?! Yes please!), Savoury French Toast (served with sautéed mushrooms, asparagus tempura and salsa verde ) and the Bean Bowl - this modest bowl is filled with healthy goods and loads of love, making it the perfect start to a day in the Gu. The Roast Beets and Chickpea Salad with extra sesame chicken is BOMB and the broccoli fritter with grilled halloumi is making us drool just at the thought of it. The dope twist in the Human Bean menu is that most items are vegetarian/vegan friendly but paired with the extras, you’ve got yourself a double-bacon, extra pulled pork type situation that we can totally get down with! If you rarely venture west of Echo Beach, take this chance to plan a little adventure to Pererenan and get your ass to Human Bean for a coffee fix. While you can get a decent cuppa pretty much everywhere in the Gu, there are not many places serving up their Almond Joy with chocolate ganache, vanilla syrup and almond creamer - all made in-house! Or if you’re still feeling a bit blue after the NYE mayhem, hit up that detoxing charcoal piccolo, your body and soul will thank you for it! See you in Pererenan, GU crew!

U.K. Woman Sentenced to 6-Month Prison for Slapping an Immigration
The 42-year-old Pakistan-born U.K. woman who has been sought by police and State Prosecutors after missing three sentencing proceedings in Denpasar was found, forcibly taken into custody, and sentenced on Wednesday, February 6, 2019. Auj-E Taqaddas was placed in handcuffs by officers of the State Prosecutors when she was apprehended inside the Lippo Mall in Kuta. Video taken during the apprehension showed the corpulent Taqaddas in a black tank top and short red skirt kicking, screaming, and struggling with officers who ushered her
out of the Mall to a waiting vehicle that immediately brought her to Court for sentencing. Prosecutors admit they had the woman under close surveillance for several days prior to her arrest, during which she spent most of the time wandering in and out of shops and staying in a hotel opposite the Mall. Surprisingly, Taqaddas spent the night before her arrest sleeping in the Malls public areas, only to become abusive to a security guard who woke her in the morning. Taqaddas reportedly had a room booked in a hotel across from the Lippo Mall. Keeping the woman under surveillance until the time set for her sentencing, 12 prosecutorial staff, using two vehicles, swept down as Taqaddas sat in a public area of the Mall. Refusing to come along peacefully with the officials, she was placed in handcuffs and forcibly brought to a waiting car at 11:30 am. THE SEMINYAK WEEKLY, 15 Fab - 22 Fab 2019
At the Court, she was advised that she had been handed a sentence of 6month, half of the sentence requested by prosecutors and 8-months less than the maximum allowed for a conviction of assaulting a government officials in the course of performing his duty. In late July 2018, Taqaddas struck the face of an immigration official at Bali Airport who was processing the woman for overstaying her visa by more than 3 months. Reports say the woman became angry and once again disruptive after hearing her final sentence and being transported in a locked van for transport to a nearby prison. Taqaddas reportedly plans to appeal her 6-month sentence. The appeals court can, at its option, reduce the woman’s sentence or increase the penalty up until the maximum allowed of 14 months.
