8 SOAPBOX THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN THE WORLD Welcome to Bali, one of the most beautiful places in the world. And that s official! I was surfing through the net looking for the most beautiful places in the world and up came Bali-not number one but at least in the top 30. No.1 was Valleys of Pakistan. Wow! They must be awesome. But also above Bali were quite a number of cities including New York, London and Paris. Hmmm, now there s a problem for me. Parts of them are fabulous, but frankly parts are seriously deprived, poor and dangerous. But I got to thinking why isn t Bali No. 1?, it really should be, or perhaps being practical, could be. What s holding it back? Corruption? Possibly. Planning. Probably. Vision. Definitely. To be number one we have to plan well, and stick to that plan without deviation. The plan has to be based on vision, the vision to be great, outstanding, marvellous...and to last to the end of time. At the end of Twin Oaks Drive in Cornwall Park, Auckland, New Zealand there is a sign which says something like : We, the City Fathers, plant these rows of oak trees so that in two hundred years, the citizens of Auckland can enjoy them. We will never see them but we know many will enjoy them forever. That s vision, and planning, and selflessness. In 1765 the Edinburgh City Council in Scotland asked a young town planner to create a new plan for the city. James Craig made a plan for the New Town that encompassed broad avenues, beautiful buildings (many by Robert Adam) squares parks and broad pavements. It still works today and was the model for many modern cities. These are the sort of visions that are needed to make Bali number one. We need a vision which says leave the beautiful parts alone and unsploit, which says if we build we build to a plan that will leave the world breathless with admiration, which says I don t need a reward today, I am planning for generations to come, which says if I alter Bali, I must alter it for the better, for the people, for the future, nothing less will do. Bali is still considered one of the most beautiful places on earth but I m afraid Jl. Sunset doesn t match James Craig s 350 year old streets and the Nusa Dua beachwalkway doesn t match Twin Oaks Drive. And they could. If we cared enough if we had vision. Let s work together to make this dream come true, through vision, planning and discipline. Happy Holidays. Enjoy beautiful Bali.

10 OPENING PERFORMANCE Tari Pendet: To Welcome In the olden days, dances were usually performed in a temple when there was a ceremony. There are some dances, such as Rejang dance, Pendet dance and Baris dance, which are performed as a ritualistic component of the ceremony, while other dances are performed simply for the entertainment of the participants. Today, however, we see those dances that used to be carried out for religious reasons being performed as entertainment at many different events. TEXT AND PHOTOS BY KARTIKA DEWI SUARDANA The Pendet dance, when it is performed in a temple, usually follows the Rejang dance. Pendet dance supposedly welcomes the deities who have come to the earth to bless the ceremony. Following the rapid development of Bali s tourism industry in recent years, the dance choreographed by I Wayan Rindi is today performed as a prelude to many dance performances. Pendet is a beautiful dance performed by a group of girls usually five or more- dressed in many layers of wraparound prada fabric. Prada is cotton fabric printed with golden flowers. The shining fabric is wrapped tightly around the dancer s bodies to highlight their curves. The dancers hair arrangement is no less important: hair is rolled into a beehive-like bun and crowned with dainty gold flowers. The dance routine is very energetic, involving a harmony of graceful movements from head to toe. Each dancer carries a silver bowl filled with flower petals during the performance, and at the end of the routine they pour the petals little by little over the audience as a gesture of welcome. The beauty of Tari Pendet is stunning and has attracted much attention. In 2009, a controversy about Tari Pendet arose when the dance was shown in the Enigmatic Malaysia advertisements as a cultural Malaysian dance. The issue became taboo when people began to wonder if it was indeed a reprise of the Sipadan- Ligitan issue, a conflict during which Malaysia claimed ownership of two of Indonesia s islands. The result was that university students in certain parts of the country went on an anti-malaysia rally. Fortunately, the contention cooled when the Malaysian Ministry of Culture admitted the mistake and sent a letter of apology to the Indonesian government. 6 OCTOBER

12 BALI UPDATE QUENCHING AN ISLAND S THIRST JAKARTA SET TO BUDGET WATER SUPPLY INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS FOR BALI TO AVERT COMING WATER CRISIS The Indonesian Department of Public Works is giving Bali priority for projects connected to the supply of fresh water. Budi Yuwono of the Public Works Ministry said: The allocation from Jakarta for the supply of fresh water next year is Rp. 3.2 trillion (US$355.5 million). But, this amount is prioritized for village areas. Especially for metropolitan areas, only Bali and East Nusa Tenggara, we have been very selective. Reported by Kompas.com, Yuwono s comments were made at a presentation at the governor office on plans for the building of a water system for the Petanu River on Friday, September 16, He said that Bali and East Nusa Tenggara were selected for special treatment because of the lack of a water-supply infrastructure in these areas. Yuwono added, Bali is expected to experience a water deficit in While, in fact, Bali will handle a number of major international events such as the APEC Summit in Moreover, Bali is an international tourism destination. It s not right is Bali is lacking in basic infrastructure, most of all water. Let s not let Bali experience a water shortage.

On this day, puppeteers (dalang) throughout the island will present offerings to their shadow puppets (wayang kulit) with the intention of honoring Lord Iswara. The puppets are taken out of their box to be blessed by their owners and placed in position as if an actual performance is being held. The objective is to invoke smoothness and safety during a real performance, and for the puppet to be able to captivate the audience. Although this sacred day is a holiday for puppets and puppeteers, it is considered very unlucky if a baby is born on this day. Such a child is prone to illness and injury from Kala, the demon god, and if a child should come into this world on this inopportune day, a special ceremony has to be performed in order to purify the child and protect it from harm. This purification ceremony is called Sudamala; it is carried out by a dalang in which the dalang narrates a story about the birth of Kala, and how dalang receives special blessing from Kala that enables him to purify the baby. With the help of certain puppets, the dalang carries out the ceremony and makes holy water (toya penglukatan) that is used to purify the baby. MAGIC TRICK Rheza Elfuego, an illusionist and conjurer, shares some of his skills. In this issue of NOW! Bali, Rheza teaches us a simple trick that you can perform almost impromptu. Vanish the toothpick This is a simple illusion, yet very tricky. Place a toothpick in the palm of your hand, blow it and watch it vanish! 1. Prepare a toothpick, double tape, scissors and, your magical gimmick. Cut a section of double tape into the shape of your thumbnail and stick it there. 2. Stick the edge of the toothpick to the double tape on your thumbnail. 3. After the toothpick is firmly attached to your thumbnail, display it to your audience but pretend you are holding it between your thumb and index finger. 4. Spread your fingers wide, and the toothpick vanishes! 12 OCTOBER

Petitenget, in order to raise much-needed funds for their First Breast Cancer Awareness and Free Mammogram Campaign for underprivileged women in Bali. Think Pink is the theme for their fabulous Lunch/Fashion Show 12:00 noon 3:00 p.m. Designs by Barbara Tollitt THE INTI COLLECTION OF BALI Since there are currently NO population-based registries in Indonesia, the exact incidence and prevalence of Breast Cancer here is not known. However, data collected from hospitals in several regions show that Cancer illnesses have increased 8% per year during the last decade. The major problem facing women here is the lack of awareness of the disease coupled with the drastic shortage of diagnostic facilities and their availability to women in the low socio-economic sector. Women harbour a fear of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation and many still believe in traditional medicines or believe that breast cancer cannot be cured. Many women are unaware of the need for regular breast examination and worse still many are simply unaware of the disease they are suffering. The Rotary Club of Bali Seminyak want to make sure that as many women as possible from the poorer areas of Bali receive free mammograms. They want to educate and teach women how to do correct breast examination, to be aware of the symptoms and to seek help in a timely manner. In the event that post surgery chemotherapy is needed, they want to be able to pay for that treatment. They need your support and whether it is through direct sponsorship, gifts or vouchers they could use in their Raffle, everything is welcome and very much appreciated. COST OF ONE MAMMOGRAM IDR 200,000 COST OF CHEMOTHERAPY Min. IDR 1 million per session. To book your lunch or to find out more details contact: E: secretary@rotaryseminyak.org P: W : BALI MAGIC TOURNAMENT Bali is known as the Island of the Gods, where white magic and black magic live side by side. Some practitioners of this magic are the high priests of the Balinese people; others are practiced by our kind which, in this case, means magicians.

Ubud urgently needed a cat clinic and shelter for abandoned kittens and cats. The heinous practice of tossing kittens into garbage bins or abandoning them in rice fields or on busy roads to avoid the expense of feeding and caring for them was a common thing. As Villa Kitty staff work towards promoting a better community attitude that supports and values compassionate human-cat relationships and animal rights, the foundation believes that they are creating a model that will be an example for others. The foundation s policy is to sterilize to prevent unwanted pregnancies, to immunize to prevent illnesses in cats and kittens, and to teach people about responsible cat care so that Bali s native wildlife is kept safe. If you would like to learn more about our foundation please do call or drop in on Sunday for lunch. We d love to meet you, and if you d like to help that would be purrrfect! 16 OCTOBER

ANANTARA SEMINYAK RESORT & SPA WINS GREEN GLOBE HIGHEST ACHIEVEMENT AWARD Anantara Seminyak Resort & Spa was the very first hotel in Bali to be awarded Green Globe Certification under Green Globe s revised standards. Even more impressive than this pioneering status, the luxury resort has won yet another award after less than a year: that of Green Globe Highest Achievement Award, Asia 2011, due to its numerous environmental, social and cultural preservation efforts. The esteemed environmental award is given to the business which gains the highest score against Green Globe s 320 sustainability indicators, as well as demonstrating a commitment to the wellbeing of its locale.

30 WHAT S ON MORE THAN WORDS: UBUD WRITERS & READERS FESTIVAL 2011 Writers may be experts with words, but the publishing business is more than just word play. These days, 34 year-old Achmad Julian prefers to go by the name Julian the Hooligan. Before that, his alias was The Julander. Although some would consider a man of 34 to be a bit too old to go by superhero-ish nicknames, anyone who has spent five minutes with him can see that Julian isn t just some maladjusted weirdo with piercings and a Mohawk. Contrary to his eye-catching appearance, Julian is a man with a big heart and a big mind that is always filled with big ideas. Just five months ago, Julian returned to his hometown of Jakarta after spending eleven years in Oregon, and he has big plans to continue the project he has been developing for the last four years; Independent Publishing. Some people perceive independent publishing as being completely DIY 1Ð. They write poems, novels, short stories, etc. They lay it out and print it themselves and distribute it themselves. DIY culture was born from an admirable idea and it is my root. But I ve grown to a point where now I think the methods still being practiced in the DIY culture are not sustainable enough, Julian says. Having worked for Microcosm Publishing, where he gained his knowhow, Julian is ready to launch his own publishing collective Not a company, he stresses - called Kolektif Jembatan. While, in Julian s words, major publishing businesses are like vampires who feed on author s ideas, Julian also thinks the lack of professionalism in the DIY scene is what is causing bright ideas to collapse before they can begin to turn out real results. So what does Kolektif Jembatan do differently? Independence combined with a well-structured vision, says Julian. I want writers to have the dignity of being in charge of their own work. But I want them to have an institution to assist them through the process of making their work available to the market of their choosing. Kolektif Jembatan is open to writers of any genre without discriminating based on market trends. Anyone who comes to us with a manuscript will be published. No selection process. But the rest of the process is done by industry standards: from the editing to the printing and the distribution. The difference is, the writers still get to be the decision makers throughout the process, he explains. In Kolektif Jembatan, writers also have a say where they want their books to be distributed. Authors know their target readers and this is an often forgotten fact. If they have their own channels of distribution, we can follow it up. This also has the benefit of opening new channels for our next clients. If they don t have any channels, we ll sell it through the ones we have, which are not only conventional bookstores, but coffee shops, galleries and even fashion boutiques, he explains. The reason for this is because unknown, up-and-coming writers have less of a chance of standing out in bookstores. In places like coffee shops, they can have their own displays. Also, the percentage of their consignment cut is more humane, Julian added. The marketing process, though, is entrusted to the writers. We give a handbook to every writer under our wing. It s a simple guide to marketing your own book. They can follow the simple steps, or they can do it their own way. By cutting down promotion costs and consignment cuts, Kolektif Jembatan can afford to share 50:50 profits with their writers. Much more generous compared to what writers are getting from big publishers Julian claims. But of course it is not everyone s aspiration to be an independently published author. Advertising executive Mala, for example, finished her novel last year and is still carrying her manuscript around in her bag in case an opportunity for a pitch pops up. Mala wants her book to be published by a major publisher, but has no knowledge whatsoever on how to make it happen. I know I m a good writer. Everyone who has read my novel said it s brilliant. But I have no connections in the publishing business. It s very frustrating, Mala says. There are authors who want to independently publish their work. There are those desperately waiting to be discovered by major publishers. There are also some published authors who are clueless about the publishing business. Yet there is one question every author asks once their work has been published: Now what? ANZ Ubud Writers & Readers Festival, a vibrant literary festival held every year in Ubud, Bali, offers a program titled Publishers on the Pitch to answer this very question and more. Established and independent publishers and experienced authors will share their insights into the business aspect of the literary world. What are the most sought-after topics? Where is the trend going? What options do authors have for publishing their work? All of these will be discussed in an intimate 90-minute session at the Left Bank Lounge, Friday October 7 th To join this session and other inspiring programs, go to 26 OCTOBER

36 DESIGN. A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE Design shapes our lives. You may not realise it but it affects us physically, emotionally, and subconsiously. To ignore it makes no sense. To use it to enhance our lives makes a lot of sense! BY ALISTAIR G. SPEIRS PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO 32 OCTOBER

37 Here we are in Bali where the design of everything is guided by marvellous, traditional and meaningful laws. Every house has a plan. Every measurement to scale. Every road in alignment. All doors, pillars, beams, windows are all made to scale according to the hand, body and feet measurements of the owner. The rest is governed by alignment to Gunung Agung, the holy mountain. Does it work? Absolutely. The villages are neat orderly, beautiful and in proportion. But good design is universal in its appeal. The medievil cathedrals of Europe were built to inspire the simple citizens of the Glory of God. And it worked. People were in awe as they entered these soaring temples of light. And still are today! Even commercial buildings can inspire and uplift: the marvellous Woolworth Building in New York, the astonishing buildings of I.M. Pei and Richard Rogers. The excesses of kings in the Palaces of Versailles and St. Peterburg. Amazing, extraordinary, uplifting. So why do we have to accept less? Why should someone apply for a building permit for a cheap, industrial factory-like building in full view of the public-and get a permit. If they haven t got the budget to build beautiful, build smaller, and out of sight. The rules are there for a reason. Let s stick to them. So why build a western-designed glass and steel villa here in Bali? I really don t know. To those of you who have done it... please think how you can adapt. You d hate to see an African village half way up The Champs Elysee, why have you done a similar, out of place, act here? Is Balinese design perfect? No, but the Balinese themselves say it s evolving, and have talented architects and designers who are developing it. Let s use them, and make sure our environment, which affects us deeply, is as good as we can make it. The great cities of the world are beautifully planned and executed-and last hundreds of years! Let s make Bali Balinese again. OCTOBER

38 CULTURE THE WANDERING BALINESE SOUL According to Hindu theology, the soul does not end up in hell or paradise after death, as it is believed in Christian and Moslem traditions. TEXT BY JEAN COUTEAU PHOTO BY KARTIKA D. SUARDANA Rather, the soul goes through a transmigration process (samsara). Incarnation, which binds the soul to a body, is a hellish condition, and it is our goal to break free of it, thus achieving moksa or ultimate enlightenment. The separated soul and body then reunite with their cosmic equivalents: the soil rejoins the Ultimate Godly Soul called Paramatma, while the body returns to the Five Cosmic Elements: fire, water, earth, air and ether, collectively called Pancamahabhutta. Failure to achieve moksa upon death means that the soul is still bound to the chain of incarnations (samsara ). These cosmic ideas are at best vaguely present in popular Balinese tradition, which blends animism (the belief that people have spirits that can exist separate from their bodies) and Hindu notions. It is said that everything starts for Man as a microcosm (Bhawna Alit) high above the mountains. That is where we find the Old Country (tanah ane wayah), the heavenly abode of the souls of origin. Therein reside as well the souls and gods who come down to earth during temple festivals, where they indulge in food and dances. Therein, too, dwell provisionally the souls still subject to desire and hunger that will eventually (re) incarnate, i.e. sending their shadows (mepewayangan ) to earth to ask for some rice, (nunas baos ), as people say. The incarnation process follows a path opened by love. Spurred by the god of flirtation (Sanghyang Deleng, literally meaning the God of Looks ), man and woman are awakened to the cosmic forces embodied by the God of Love, Kamajaya, and the Goddess of the Moon, Ratih. In their sexual desire and love they physically unite the red and white elements of desire (kama bang / kama petak), as the respective symbols of the male sperm and female ovum 34 OCTOBER

39 are called. This is accompanied by the descent (numadi) of a soul, an ancestral soul - at least according to popular interpretations 1. This soul comes straight from the mouth of hell or down from the Old Country, according to variations of the tradition. From this fertilization process originates the Little World or Bhwana Alit, man as a discrete cosmic unit, a combination of spirit and matter. Each of the phases of existence that follow, from gestation to birth to death and eventually, from death to the afterlife, are honored by a ritual. The first ritual has the purpose of fastening the soul to it body before birth; the second ritual is to welcome it into the world; the third is to wish it a harmonious passage through the various stages of life. The fourth and final ritual is conducted upon the person s death to help him/her cast away all earthly bonds and rejoin the Old Country of its origins where it merges with the Sublime Soul of the World, Sang Hyang Embang (God). Let s go back to the early stages of life the procreation phase. The sexual meeting and eventual merging of the two kamas mentioned above begets what is often called The Godly Fetus or Sanghyang Jabang Bayi. Such godly status is due to the fact that the soul originates from the heavenly world. It will keep this attribute under various names from birth to death. Hence the name Dewa or little god is still often given to young children. Upon the seventh month of pregnancy, a ceremony called the housing of The purpose of these ceremonies is to welcome and guide the child in his/her first steps to life. A child is believed to be a godly being, and upon its arrival the parents will try to locate its origins, i.e. to find out the identity of the soul reincarnated in the child and what are his/her demands. To achieve this end, twelve days after the birth, the parents consult with a medium. This priest calls down the soul (s) of origin that incarnate(s) in the baby and questions it (or them). It may be that the new born is an incarnation of more than one soul. Sometimes two or more ancestors incarnate one body, each with its own past, name and features. According to tradition, there should be at least one male and one female soul, thus symbolizing the unity of opposites that make up the human being. These incarnating souls may come from several generations back, and each one will have a specific request. The families go to great lengths to fulfill the requests of these souls to ensure the child grows up healthily and unhindered. The ceremony may vary from a yellow shawl (saput kuning ), to a wayang (shadow puppet) or other sacred performance to be given at a specific stage of youth Throughout his/her life, every man and woman is expected to live in accordance with the principles of cosmic harmony. This basically means that he/ she should strive to fulfill the three goals of life: desire or kama, wealth or artha and virtue or dharma. Each of these goals should be fulfilled in order of priority. The order depends on the EACH OF THE PHASES OF EXISTENCE THAT FOLLOW, FROM GESTATION TO BIRTH TO DEATH AND EVENTUALLY, FROM DEATH TO THE AFTERLIFE, ARE HONORED BY A RITUAL. the soul or megedong -gedongan, ensconces the soul within the womb of the mother. Following the birth is a whole set of birth ceremonies: the birth-rites proper, the burying of the four little siblings (catur sanak, which correspond to the afterbirth). The ceremonies of the fifth or seventh day after the birth are for the cutting of the umbilical cord (kepus pungsed). There is another ceremony on the twelfth day, the 42 nd (abulan pitung dina), and the third month (nelubulanin), and further blessing rituals for when the child first touches the ground and so on. current stage of life, four of which are recognized: childhood, adolescence, married life and old age. Desire, although one of the goals of life, must be exercised with caution and balanced by dharma or virtue. Controlling one s desire is best illustrated in the mesangih or metatah tooth filing rite, which is normally held at the time of adolescence (athough it is often postponed). The filing of the teeth symbolizes the overcoming of the six intimate enemies (musuh ing raga) or the six main causes of sin, because teeth are equated with animalistic tendencies. Controlling one s desires is further emphasized during the wedding ceremony (mesakapan), the apex of which is an offering addressed to the buta sor (material forces) which are at the origin of the various desires and temptations that ensure good offspring. During married life, man s main priority becomes the accumulation of wealth or artha, spurred by desire (kama) but checked by dharma or virtue. One must have adequate wealth for the holding of the death ritual when one s parents pass away. People pay their dues to their parents by holding the various rituals of death in their honor. Upon reaching his fifties or so, and having had his fill of kama (desire) and artha (wealth), Man is expected to consecrate himself to the pursuit of virtue or dharma. The elderly begin dividing their inheritance and studying the scriptures. Some, if family tradition allows it, become high priests. In the Balinese cycle of life, death is but a return to our origins. The rites of death, thus, are the symbolic opening of the path toward release. The dead body is cremated and the ashes thrown to the sea, so that the elements that make up the human body thus rejoin with their cosmic equivalent (Panca Maha Bhuta ). The sarcophagus is but a vehicle to take the soul and body away, while the cremation tower is a symbol of the world. During this stage the soul is provisionally entrusted to the Lord of the Sea, Baruna, to be cleansed. It is around this time or when the body is lowered into the grave, if a cremation did not take place - that the soul passes through hell to be tortured and cleansed. Later on, during the postcremation rites, the soul is called back to shore and taken back to the heights, from where it rejoins the Old Country from where it originally came. Lastly, an effigy is made and the soul is officially installed (kelinggihang ) as an ancestral soul in the family temple. The deceased has become a deified ancestor (dewa hyang), until next time, when the ancestor s soul will once more ask for rice and (re)incarnate 2. One soul may reincarnate as many as 117 times, according to some Balinese, before achieving moksa (ultimate release). Thus it appears that Man is no more than a transcendent being. Time and history have no influence over his life and death instead he must simply surrender himself to the cyclical flow of Being. OCTOBER

40 WHERE TO GO Klenteng Ling GwanKiong Living The Ancient Wisdom Klenteng usually refers to a temple where the ancient Chinese religion is practiced. The religion is a configuration of three teachings: Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. The word klenteng in Indonesian is derived from Kwan Im Teng, the name of a Chinese temple built in 1650 by Lieutenant Kwee Hoen to worship Goddess Koan-Im. A klenteng temple is also intended for the worshipping of ancestors and for social gatherings. TEXT & PHOTOS BY KARTIKA D. SUARDANA 36 OCTOBER

41 THE CORUSCATION OF BRIGHT RED, YELLOW AND GREEN PAINT AGAINST WHITE WALLS IS A BEAUTY TO BEHOLD IN THE OLD TOWN SHOPPING DISTRICT. The Klenteng Ling Gwan Kiong was built near the Dutch Harbor in Singaraja in The Chinese temple upholds the Tri Dharma philosophy, a blend of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, and a slight assimilation with Balinese culture in terms of how the offerings are made. The ancestor worshipped at this particular temple is called Tan HuCin Jin, a great man whom, it is believed, achieved Moksha. Moksha is the greatest afterlife achievement and liberation from the Samsara cycle of birth and death experienced by people who practiced the Yogas. Worship involves four elements: Karma Yoga, working for the Supreme; Jnana Yoga, acknowledging the Supreme; Raja Yoga, meditating the Supreme; and Bhakti Yoga, serving the Supreme. The temple built facing the ocean stands out with its authentic Chinese architecture. The coruscation of bright red, yellow and green paint against white walls is a beauty to behold in the old town shopping district. Inside the temple, the walls are covered with paintings from the 1650s that are restored annually by the descendants of the painters. The paintings tell of the Chinese romance of the Three Kingdoms called San Guo Yan Yi, known in Indonesia as Sam Kok. The romance, written by Luo Guanzhong, is about the era when China was ruled by three warlords after the fall of the Zhuo dynasty. While the paintings capture the conditions of that area, namely the conflicts between various warlords, the writing reflects Confucian teachings: that loyalty to one s family, friends, and superiors is an important measure of a person s virtue. From the literature of San Guo Yan Yi, we can also learn about how the religions in China first came to be. The temple caretaker is on standby at the temple most of the time. According to him, anyone can pray at the temple and enquire about one s future to Tan HuCin Jin the great ancestor regardless of one s religion. The caretaker assists those who come to make prayers. First he organizes the offering and then guides the devotee through the prayers step by step. However, just because you pray doesn t mean the ancestor will deign to tell you your fortune. But when I visited the temple, I was in luck! OCTOBER

42 WHERE TO GO Monkey Forest Ubud Enchanting Forest Ubud is a major tourism destination in Bali. The area stands out with its well-preserved culture, beautiful people, nice weather and calm ambience, and has charmed millions of people from all over the world. The little town, formerly a sleepy rural village, has inspired many people to find their artistic soul. That is why Ubud is also known as the artists village. TEXT & PHOTO BY KARTIKA D. SUARDANA 38 OCTOBER

43 Many of Ubud s paddy fields and orchards have been turned into hotels, shops and restaurants. Some parts, however, remain in their natural state. One of these is Monkey Forest, a little space that is home to a monkey troop, where the trees are centuries old. The Ubud Monkey Forest is not too far from the centre of the town, where Ubud Palace is located. The Sacred Monkey Forest is taken care of by the community of Desa Pekraman Padangtegal. The place is easy to find because the street has the same name and is known as everyone s favorite shopping and dining area. Another landmark is the two huge monkey statues at the main gate right before the ticket counter. One thing that everyone must remember before entering the forest is not to keep food in one s bag, because even if the food is hidden the monkeys will look for it. Fear not, for the monkeys at Monkey Forest can be considered calmer than those in Uluwatu or Sangeh - maybe because the monkeys are fed regularly by the forest officer. An official banana vendor sells bananas at the gate for you to feed the monkeys if you so wish. Upon entering the forest you are enshrouded in a soothing natural ambience enhanced by the cool weather and the sound of living things. A walk beneath the canopies of the gigantic trees is a therapeutic experience. You can meet the monkeys even before the entrance gate. The monkeys in the Sacred Monkey Forest are known as long-tailed Macaques. There are two temples inside the forest, one is facing the south and the other is at the foot of the hill by the river. Both temples have their own unique features and form a part of Purr Dalem Padangtegal, the villager s temple, where they worship Lord Shiva. The temple in the south is a little temple compound with ancient carvings on its stone walls. The temple by the river can be reached by crossing a long dragon-shaped bridge that undulates much like the terrain, with the hanging roots of the old endemic trees creating a natural roof overhead. At the end of the bridge, at the head of the dragon, is a small pond guarded by a Ganesha statue bordered by two statues of deities. Jets of water shoot from each of the statues. The pond is a pot luck pond, so make sure to throw a coin in and make a a wish! The wooden path next to the river is the pathway to the temple. Tread warily because it s a bit slippery, especially during the rainy seasons. Although the forest is only 27acres approximately, 115 species of trees have been found living in it and innumerable species of birds such as the Cinnamon Bitterns, Scaly-Breasted Munias, Spotted Doves, Yellow-Vented Bulbuls, Javan Munias, Common Ioras, Little Spiderhunters, Javan Kingfishers, Oriental Magpie Robins, and Glossy Swiftlets. This little forest is very photogenic each and every corner is a photo opportunity. The Sacred Monkey Forest is the perfect getaway after a day of shopping in the town. OCTOBER

44 WHAT TO DO Camel Tours TEXT & PHOTO BY KARTIKA D. SUARDANA There is no golden desert in Bali. But we do have a golden sandy beach on the southern part of the island: the famous Nusa Dua beach. Below the Nikko Bali Hotel, which straddles a cliff in Nusa Dua, the golden sandy beach shimmers while the camels lazily bask in the sun and the beautiful ocean. Camel rides is an activity offered by the Nikko Bali Hotel, though the camels belong to an outsourced company, Bali Camel Safaris, who organize the activity and look after these large and unexpectedly sweet animals. You can book a camel ride from the hotel concierge and easily access the beach by going to the ground floor and crossing the hotel s beautiful garden. Bali Camel Safaris first introduced camel rides in Bali on the 18th of July 1996 in Tanjung Benoa. Three years later they moved to the Nusa Dua beach for safety reasons. Now we can ride these well-trained camels on the shore of the beach and in the area of foliage surrounding Nikko Hotel grounds. If this is to be your first camel ride, don t worry! There are professional trainers to guide you every step of the way. The comfortable saddle is safe even for the children. This new experience on the beach is undoubtedly worth trying it is nothing like a camel ride in the desert of Rajasthan where the heat is unbearable. This camel safari offers spectacular ocean views and a long stretch of golden sandy beach with moderate sunlight. A new and fun way to get tanned! 40 OCTOBER

45 Get out, get going, I usually prefer to spend Friday nights partying at my favorite spots in Seminyak and thereabouts. But early last month, I decided to have a sober night and swapped the dance floor for ten-pin bowling. Back in the mid eighties when I was a child, we would occasionally drive by the local bowling lanes in the early evening on the way home from somewhere. I was fascinated by the bright neon beer ads in the windows and the big sign with an outline of a ball and pins that flashed on and off as we sped by. To me, bowling alleys were mysterious, alluring places where guys with greasy hair leaned against their muscle cars or Harleys in the parking lot, and cute girls wearing sweaters and miniskirts sipped Coca-Colas and listened to Elvis on transistor radios while their boyfriends hurled 16 pound balls down the lanes inside. I wanted to get in there with the cool people. And so I did but just recently. Together with some friends, whom I go bowling TEXT & PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO think are pretty cool, I drove down Kartika Plaza in Kuta and headed to the one and only Paradiso Bowling. I haven t been bowling in years now, and after that night I had sores all over my fingers. Being that it s such a fun game to play with friends and family, I find it quite odd that the interest in bowling seems to have waned these days. I don t think many people could name a big bowling star today, while back in the day a professional bowler could earn millions of dollars while pro golfers and football players were only earning in the thousands. Anyway, back to the night: we picked the less-busy hour we really wanted to play but couldn t afford to let our hair down. I felt a rush of excitement as I put my bowling shoes on, I couldn t wait to start knocking down pins! Some of us managed to hit strikes, but I don t think any of us were ready for any kind of competition. But one thing for sure is that we had a fabulous time that night! Paradiso Bowling & Billiard Centre operates 18 National Certified Bowling Lanes complete with AMF Computerized Scoring System. A full selection of house balls and shoe rental is available. Forgot your socks? Don t worry, they are provided, too! The place is certainly a perfect substitute for the dance floor, especially since it also plays the kind of music played in the clubs of Kuta and Seminyak. Paradiso Bowling & Billiard Centre is an internationalstandard leisure complex with modern, state-of-the-art facilities that include a high quality sound system, big screen displays for sporting events and an array of food and beverage outlets.

46 WHAT TO DO I recently heard about Bali Experience Adventure from a friend who told me that this adventure company offers becak rides in a village in Tabanan Regency. I wondered if there were any becak (pedi-cab) in Bali because the few becak still in existence are most concentrated in Java - specifically Jogjakarta. So I made a call to Mr. Kacak, the owner of the company, to schedule a program and found out that they have several different countryside programs. I chose the Bali Countryside Adventure. Tabanan Exploring TEXT & PHOTO BY KARTIKA D. SUARDANA On the day, I was picked up and taken with another group to Padangaling Village in Perean district, Tabanan, about a one-hour drive from Seminyak. My first impression when we arrived was that this is a real village, the kind that is authentically untouched by tourism development. I could see enormous portions of arable land which, instead of being built upon, were being used as paddy fields and cacao plantations. The car dropped us off in the middle of a dilapidated street where the becak were waiting. The amicable becak drivers welcomed us and introduced us to the area. My becak driver was Pak Gusti, a fulltime security guard in the south and freelance becak driver in his free time for extra income. I extracted lot of stories about the village from him. Padangaling village is an agriculture village where a majority of the population is peasants. Kacak, the owner of the company, is a local entrepreneur who works as a tour guide. This young man found that ecotourism that also promotes Balinese culture could be a source of extra income for the hardlaboring villagers. He established the company with good intentions, and 42 OCTOBER

47 the Countryside the business is now run by the locals whom he has trained to give customer service from the heart. He hopes that his business will discourage the village from being built upon and ensures that it stays true to its roots. Along the way, we made a stop at an elementary school. The students were so welcoming to us outsiders. Bali Experience Adventure arranges a meet and greet as part of the tour so that the students can practice their English and communicate with people from outside their village. The teacher told me that this program is very good for increasing students confidence. Furthermore, the donations given by the company, as part of what we pay, help the school develop its facilities. Next, the becak dropped us off at the mouth of a narrow alley where we continued our journey on foot through the rice fields, where we had the opportunity to emulate Balinese farmers. We tilled the soil and cultivated the paddies. Tired out after the physical labour, we drank the juice of a fresh young coconut in a gazebo on the field. The journey was not over yet, as the guide then took us to the head quarters. The head quarter is a Balinese housing compound, the actual house of the company owner. The compound boasts a vast garden planted with herbs and fruits. The compound also has two traditional kitchens where we experimented with coffee and arakbrewing. Arak is Balinese liquor. The best part was when we got to sample the fresh arak and coffee. We were also taught how to make the beautiful offerings we usually see in temples around the island. To conclude the day of cultural exploration, we enjoyed a meal of Balinese risjttafel in the gazebo. OCTOBER

51 A SHOPPING PARADISE Nearly every visitor that comes to Bali does some shopping at sometime even if shopping isn t the ultimate aim and the fascinating and irresistible buys the island has to offer make a lot of visitors step in to the row upon row of shops and boutiques and step out with two hands full of shopping bags. Of course, being a treasure trove of fine arts and handicrafts, antique and semi-antique furniture, paintings, delicately crafted jewelry, wood and stone carvings, masks, woven and dyed fabrics, international fashion labels and top-notch local designer clothes and many more, Bali has everything to fill a shopping bag with. From bargaining in traditional markets and art shops, venturing into chic and stylish boutiques in the island s shopping meccas, the variety of shopping experiences in Bali goes far beyond a stroll in a mall or a morning spent browsing a market. Shopping in Bali is a day-and-night activity that runs parallel with the best in the West, while also giving a flavor of the cultural uniqueness of the East. That s right, inexpensive items are available in market stalls and department stores, while designer labels can also be found in tastefully appointed boutiques around the area of Seminyak. Certainly, Bali is all about its people; in this case, your Balinese shop attendants. That said, shopping in Bali is not simply walking into a shop, picking something from a shelf and paying for it. Talk to the Balinese people in the shop, and you ll learn that in every transaction you make is an experience that allows you to feel the genuine warmth of your local hosts. OCTOBER

52 SHOPPING BALI S MOST DESIRABLE EXOTIC SHOPPING TEXT & PHOTOS BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Exempting the racy party scene in Kuta, Bali is regarded as the cultural centre of Indonesia. It is famous as an arts and crafts island and much of its towns and villages seem to be teeming with artists workshops and galleries. The Balinese people are surrounded by art throughout their lives as art is omnipresent in their homeland and culture. They create works of art that tell of the most basic routines of daily life.

53 Artistic skill is not ascribed only to a special intellectual class, but is open to everyone at all skill levels. Although artistic expression is considered a religious practice, Balinese art does not serve religion solely. Anyhow, the unique blend of the Balinese arts serves as an anchor for what has developed and grown into a truly wonderful arts and crafts industry. From wood carvings to artistic fashion, Bali is the destination for exotic shopping. Other art forms from many other exotic cultures of Indonesia can also be found in Bali.

56 SHOPPING SEMINYAK Biasa 52 OCTOBER

57 THE ISLAND S SHOPPING MECCA TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO For a shopaholic, standing before the lineup of boutiques in Seminyak is like approaching the pearly gates without a guardian angel. There is always an irresistible buy to fit your bill; so give yourself permission to go a little crazy while in Bali. The most posh shopping district in Bali, Seminyak is like wrapping Rodeo Drive in a blue Tiffany box. Starting at the intersection at Double Six Road, visitors can sense the more up-market ambiance after the untidy sprawl of Legian. One of the biggest retailers on this strip is the Body and Soul boutique, known for its chic collections of women and girl s wear. A little further down you will come across the boutique of Paul Ropp, one of Bali s most flamboyant designers, whose strikingly colorful designs have captivated the island s fashionistas. Another Mecca of haute couture in the area is Biasa. Biasa s collections of Indian silks and top-quality linens for men and women are elegant and classy, but a younger crowd can also appreciate the sleek sophistication of the label s flirtatious style. Ruffled shirts and dresses in solid colors, sequined bags, sarongs and carefully-chosen jewelry are the thing here. As you venture into the belly of Seminyak, you ll find more serious shopping opportunities. Lily Jean has established herself as one of the island s fashionistas and boasts a great selection of party clothes and basics. Her original designs mean you re unlikely to come across someone on the sidewalk wearing the same thing. Also along this strip is Fashion Point, a small arcade with several small, original boutiques and an Italian-style café in the courtyard. Approaching the next intersection at Jalan Kunti is a jewelry store that is well worth a look for those who are serious collectors. The Atlas South Sea Pearls is a company with its own pearl farms in Bali, which sells its gems around the world. You will find these precious stones set into exquisite earrings, necklaces, pendants and rings. Continue down the street and you ll encounter Innuendo, where you can settle for some of the most beautifully-crafted designs on the island. The label s locally-based French designer uses the best fabrics and impeccable tailoring to fashion designs that hang perfectly on the body. The rest of the strip is homage to houseware as soon Lily Jean Paul Ropp as you pass Café Moka time for a pastry, perhaps? Keep your eyes peeled for new designers setting up shop. Look for Lilla Lane for great shoes and tasteful designer prices. You ll find a branch of Kerry Grima as you approach the Jari Menari massage center, a shop selling sexy sequins.

58 SHOPPING KEROBOKAN YOUR KEROBOKAN SHOPPING SPREE TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO When you come to Kerobokan, bring an empty suitcase you ll need it for all your shopping! Given that most of the shops lining this street sell furniture with the exception of Niluh Djelantik you may have to swap the suitcase for something much bigger. If you have just bought an apartment and are looking for furnishings, this area is your number one stop. Be sure to free up at least two days to get all your shopping done and your furniture delivered. Lio Collection The beginning of the street, where Oberoi is, is a paradise for shoe addicts. Niluh Djelantik s boutique (formerly called Nilou ) is where all manner of gorgeous shoes sandals, heels, wedges, flats and boots are born. Cameron Diaz and top model Gisele Bündchen have been known to purchase Niluh s beautiful shoes and sandals. All the products are made from high quality leather and manufacturing is under the watchful supervision of the owner. If you have your own style preference, Niluh s friendly staff will be delighted to help you create your own individual look. When it comes to furniture, Raya Kerobokan offers both modern, new designs and recreations of original Balinese style.one of these is the warehouse-style Jaya, full of beautifully-restored new and old antiques. Those who favour this style will be easily seduced. If you don t find exactly what you like, a little further down is Magic Fish. This amazing shop only carries furniture in recycled teak. A tour of the workshop in the back is a fascinating journey as we see fixtures of old houses being restored or broken down and used to create doors and wardrobes, furniture and more. Old furniture is lovingly restored and 54 OCTOBER

59 KNICKKNACKS, LAMPS, MIRRORS AND HANDICRAFTS SHOPS WAIT TO BE EXPLORED. Niluh everything glows with the sheen of the gracefully aged. J&M furniture is located on this strip as well. The modern furniture showroom displays tasteful room suggestions and fantastic pieces created by the in-house team. Further along the road, there are more houseware and furniture shops and enough variety to keep you going all day. Warisan is one of Bali s loveliest restaurants with its European-inspired ambience and fabulous menu. At the front of the restaurant is one of Ubud s original trendsetters: here you will find antique furniture, jewelry and more. Knickknacks, lamps, mirrors and handicrafts shops wait to be explored. In the corner by the traffic lights, a giant Lio Collection now straddles both sides of the street. The store has a vast, expanding catalogue to suit all of your decorating and furnishing needs: indoor and outdoor furniture, antiques and modern, synthetic rattan furniture and colorful light fixtures. It is possible to navigate the street on foot but be aware that there is usually a lot of traffic. Your easiest option is to come by taxi or with a scooter or car which you can park in front of each shop you stop by. OCTOBER

60 SHOPPING OBEROI STYLE-CONSCIOUS JL OBEROI TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Jalan Oberoi was once a small, sinuous country road winding through the rice fields. The road led to a swampy river and, beside it, a quiet temple, which, it was rumoured, had been cursed with black magic. Today this road is wellknown as a mandatory stop for all the stylish, beautiful people visiting Bali. Why? Because Jalan Oberoi is the playground of the island s trendiest. Many Oberoi-origin names have risen to international status, from jewelers to stylish frock makers, luxury Asian vintage garments and more. At the beginning of the street, you ll come upon I love Bali, a funky - and probably the smallest - store in Bali offering slinky resort wear and groovy prints. A live tree has been planted in the center of the shop, whose branches stretch impressively through the roof. Buddha Wear just next door is its perfect antithesis, with basic shapes and a range of solid tones in fluid jersey material and some silks. On the same side of the strip is The Prisoners of St. Petersburg, offering a mix of vintage trinkets and easy printed wear. Dinda Rella, a brand synonymous with high fashion, carries garments ornamented with lace, frills, feathers and Swarovski crystals. On the opposite side of the street is K&I - all about sparkle, glam and sexiness; featuring designs that are short, fitted and stretchy. Its neighbor is So Clothes, whose focus is more on peace, love and rock n roll with its hippy style; while Simple Konsep Store offers you guessed it simple concept apparel for him and her replete with Italian charm and playfulness. Magali Pascal, around the corner, carries a simply lovely range of bags and elegant blouses to create the perfect wardrobe for the girly girl. Lulu s designs are along the same lines but more casual, while Lily Jean s boutique features an eclectic mix of sassy beach and evening wear and accessories. Further down the street is By The Sea, whose inventory is all about the beach with a Hawaiian-Copacabana mix of classic prints. Knit is basically a mirror image of one of the island s shopping musts: Biasa. Religion is the UK brand emporium in Bali: spinning its hip, trashy rock n roll style just as we like it. Uma and Leopold is erratic yet attractive and always has something fabulous. Surfer dudes and chicks can always find something to wear at the newlyexpanded Drifter. Popular surf labels such as Rip Curl and the like as well as skateboard labels are the thing here. A couple of doors down is This Is A Love Song, a small concept store with, certainly, a lot of love. Offering basic everyday wear using the finest pre-washed cottons in the most comfortable cuts, the store is favoured by younger crowds. Men s fashion is celebrated at Dejong, whose designs are predominantly modern and casual, but there is a line featuring a trendier collection. At the end of the street is the Seminyak Square, a dining and shopping arcade. The venue has two long corridors on the first and second floor and a wide garden with benches and tables. The tenants are those with good reputations and have been exclusively selected. PHOTO COURTESY OF DINDA RELLA 56 OCTOBER

61 NUSA DUA FINE SHOPPING IN NUSA DUA TEXT & PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Like the trees that line the wide, paved promenades, Bali Collection, Nusa Dua s premier shopping complex, is maturing - into a complete shopping and dining experience. With the addition of several leading retailers, the mall is abuzz with shoppers and now features a great selection of fashion, jewelry, handicrafts and food outlets. Central to the complex is leading department store, Sogo. With a wide variety of local and imported labels, there are some great buys here, such as genuine designer perfumes at very competitive prices. Local designers have designated spaces in the store, both imported and local shoe labels are wellrepresented and local handicrafts such as silks and batik can also be found here. What was life like before Starbucks? The popular coffee shop adjoins the department store, as well as a leading sports retailer with great buys and prominent brands. Toys and children s clothes and shoes, underwear and cosmetics offer both quality and variety. Also close at hand is a retailer called Alun Alun selling beautiful batik, houseware and gifts - many in traditional batik motifs. The Body and Soul outlet stocks a wide range of apparel for girls and women. The sprawling Art Market is home to a number of vendors selling local handicrafts. The adjoining mini market is a convenient place to stock up on fruit, drinks and snacks. Exotic Gems is a beautifully-appointed jewelry store specializing in high quality gems sourced from around the world and cut by world craftsmen in India. They have an amazing array of white and colored diamonds, along with other precious and semiprecious stones, set in both classic and modern styles. Uluwatu is another retailer which has been very successful in Bali and exports its beautiful Balinese lace around the world. Fashion items as well as collectable bedding, tablecloths and more, most featuring the unique Balinese lacework, are well worth a look - and hard to resist. OCTOBER

62 SHOPPING UBUD 58 OCTOBER

63 SHOP THE UBUD WAY Shopping is not an Ubud specialty. Yet, owing to its position at the centre of numerous art and craft communities, Ubud is definitely the best place to get handicrafts. The items are sourced from neighbouring villages like Tegallang, Mas and Celuk. TEXT & PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO You will find only a few internationally-branded stores and leading surf grands found mostly along Monkey Forest Road. Jalan Hanoman, also, has become an increasingly fine shopping street. Then again, you re in Ubud; and everyone knows that the best way to experience shopping in the area is by heading downtown to the Ubud Art Market. Located at the corner of Jalan Monkey Forest and Jalan Raya Ubud (where the Ubud Palace is at), Ubud Art Market is a two-storey warren of stalls bursting with wood carvings, batik shirts, sarongs, and all manner of souvenirs aimed specifically at tourists. The merchants here haggle with tourists for a living and think nothing of asking for ten times what they charge locals, so know your budget and be realistic when you go in to buy. Most of the merchants downstairs quickly lose interest if you try to bargain for a reasonable price. We recommend that you try the shops upstairs - where you will find the same products sold at lower prices. You will still need to use your best bargaining skills, of course. Try to avoid the period between 11am and 2pm when tour buses from further afield tend to arrive en-masse. If you are hiring a car for the day, it might be worth it to make a stop in Tegallalang, where there are more wholesale products. Besides the art market, Ubud s other shopping areas are Jalan Raya Ubud, Jalan Hanoman and Jalan Dewi Sita. These three streets are interconnecting and can be traversed in a day on foot. You can find all kinds of things: ancient antiques, the latest designs, souvenirs, modern masterpieces of art, useful objects and whimsical trinkets. Prices vary widely, and bargaining is the norm. Take a stab at it, but always be polite. The road from Sanur to Ubud passes through a series of smaller towns and villages that specialize in the production of particular arts and crafts. The village of Celuk, famous for its gold and silversmiths, offers a multitude of gold and silver jewelries including rings, bangles, chokers, and earrings, Tusuk Konde (hair accessories), brooches and many more; some decorated with mother pearl. Huge stores all the way along Jalan Raya Celuk carry all types of intricately designed pieces. Here s one last pearl of wisdom: if you go off the main road into the village where the craftsmen live and work, you ll be able to take an authentic souvenir back home for an even price lower than you would find in the shops. OCTOBER

64 SHOPPING SUKAWATI SUKAWATI ART MARKET TEXT & PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO A visit to a local market always provides fascinating insight into the culture of the Real Bali. An art market is a good place to explore the Balinese shopping experience in a natural way, get in touch with the locals and learn from them about the art of negotiation. An art market particularly popular among visitors is Sukawati Art Market, near Ubud. The myriad of art shops offer a wide range of products such as garments, souvenirs, paintings (with or without frames), baskets, colorful kites, t-shirts, bags, fans, wooden statues, dance costumes, ceremonial items and so on. The market also sells trinkets in bulk - but quality is dubious. Sukawati Art Market purchases the largest order of handicrafts and traditional handmade products in Bali, and is located on the main road of Sukawati. This two-storey building is packed with tourists and locals almost every weekend; especially during summer, Christmas, Eid Ul Fitr (Islamic holiday) and New Year s holiday sometimes you can t even get a space in the parking lot. You will gradually come to understand more deeply the art of buying. You will have to bargain even if the vendor offers you a morning price, meaning an especially low price vendors offer only in the mornings so that they can kick off the trading day with a few sales under their belts, and make the rest of the day a successful one. Around two hundred meters west of Sukawati Art Market is Pasar Seni Pagi or Morning Art Market. The morning market is open very early before dawn until around 7 or 8 in the morning. Souvenir retailers from other parts of Bali normally come here to purchase semi-finished products at very low prices. If you re an early riser and a good negotiator visiting the morning market will not only get you the best prices, but also allow you to experience a one-of-a-kind art adventure. 60 OCTOBER

66 SHOPPING DENPASAR SHOPPING IN THE CAPITAL TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Denpasar is a place where modern and traditional approaches coexist. When you shop, you therefore have two options: haggle for low-priced goods or pay the full price for higher quality goods. At the traditional markets you can find unique handicrafts, woodcarvings, local spices, and much more. Shops selling similar items are often clustered together, which makes negotiating and comparing prices easier. Jalan Sulawesi is a small yet commercial street in the city and it is well-known for its fabric shops. Here, you will find rich choices of textiles such as cottons, silks, satins, brocades and much more. The prêt-a-porter clothing is in an interesting range here, particularly if you want to try the Balinese traditional dress. At first glance, the shops appear to be selling the same or similar products, but each shop is in fact unique. It s a good idea to scour each one so you can compare what s on offer. Don t forget to bargain on prices! Pasar Badung traditional market on Jalan Gajah Mada is a favorite for those searching for Indonesian spices. The traditional market is the largest market in Bali and acts as a sort of clearing house for many of the island s goods. For all you know, the sarong vendors at Padangbai may have bought their wares at Pasar Badung! Fruit and vegetable producers from around Bali bring their goods to sell at Pasar Badung, so the market is humming with activity 24/7. At the ground floor of Pasar Badung, particularly around the stairwells, we see older Balinese ladies preparing and selling traditional Balinese snack foods, ground chilies, vegetables and an array of other items. The lower floors of the market are reserved for meat, fish, fruit and vegetables. The upper floors are for spices and traditional Balinese and Muslim attire. Also for sale are Balinese ceremonial equipment such as umbrellas and baskets. Those who don t have much time can always head to gift stores such as Erlangga and Krisna (now also open on Sunset Road). Located on Jalan Nusa Kambangan, both stores are popular for their complete Balinese souvenir collections. Accessories, batik shirts, beach sarongs, wooden statues and toys, handbags and ethnic sandals are amongst the top items sold in the store. Erlangga also has quite a selection of traditional snacks, most of which contain peanuts. OLEH OLEH TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Bali s craftsmen tend to settle in specialist areas; this used to mean that shoppers wishing to see the best of what the island has to offer had to spend a lot of time on the road until now. Spreading like wildfire is a new style of handicraft retailing in Bali, known as the Oleh Oleh (gift) stores. The rise of these stores means that it is no longer necessary to scout the entire island in search of local handicrafts they can now be found under one roof! You won t necessarily find the best versions of these items, as low prices are definitely the order of the day here; however, the variety, low prices and all-in-one shopping experience are attracting more and more shoppers. One of the first of these specialist stores was in Geneva in Jalan Raya Kerobokan. Wares are spread over three floors; shoppers push giant carts and buy big. The store stocks everything from rattan tableware, incense, wood carvings, local textiles and pillows to stone carvings, furniture and giant earthenware pots. For those settling in a new house, this is practically a one-stop shop. The new Oleh Oleh shops can t possibly stock everything for everyone, but they are certainly trying! From souvenirs like Bali t-shirts, sarongs, scarves and novelty items to fans, fabrics, baskets and tableware, Bali s new gift shops have it all. Buying in bulk means rock-bottom prices and, for many people, the relief of knowing they no longer need to bargain with vendors for each and every piece they buy. Be sure to check out the Oleh Oleh stores mushrooming along Sunset Road and Bypass. 62 OCTOBER

68 SHOPPING BASED DESIGNERS BALI S FLOURISHING FASHION DESIGNERS TEXT BY NAMHAR HERNANTO Bali has been known and voted as a top island destination by several distinguished international travel magazines. But who would ve thought that it is also one of the top fashion capitals in the world? This year, The Global Language Monitor has ranked Bali 21st in its list of the 50 top fashion capitals in the world. Of course, this achievement is due to the productivity and creativity of the island fashion folks, in which the Bali-based fashion designers are key players. In this edition of NOW! Bali we caught up with two of the most established fashion designers on the island. Dwi Iskandar and Putri Mertaningsih, with their own distinctive styles, are amongst the many talented designers that have made fashion in Bali an ever-growing scene. The two, together with tens of other designers, will hold their show this October in the first annual Bali Garden Party at Taman Bhagawan, Tanjung Benoa. 64 OCTOBER

69 DWI ISKANDAR Dwi Iskandar has made a name for himself in the fashion fraternity and is making waves in the country s fashion horizon. Unsurprisingly, he is currently the chairman of the Bali chapter of the Indonesian Fashion Designers and Entrepreneurs Association (APPMI). His ingenious designs have been highly applauded, for he has brought an age of revival. He made a successful venture into retailing with his two labels, Dwi Iskandar and Dwico, two very different product lines. Dwi studied hospitality in college, but his love for fashion preoccupied his mind always. He would recommend people what to wear and help them gain a dress sense. It was then that he decided to take up fashion design as a profession and transferred to the Fashion School of Adrianto Halim here in Bali. In 2001, he opened his first boutique, selling modified clothes for men and women. After his ready-to-wear collection was well-received by the market, Dwi went on to create his own label. During this time, Dwi went to work creating a cocktail and evening dress collection. He uses unusual texturing and detailing, coming up with fusion styles with gorgeous embellishments in vibrant, eclectic colors. Being a native of East Java and growing up in the island s rural area, it didn t take long for Dwi to develop his own distinguished style of merging ethnic inspirations and fabrics with contemporary design into his unique men s and women s collections. Despite its short life cycle, the label s reputation landed Dwi in many prestigious fashion events in Bali, Jakarta and Jogjakarta, as well as international events in San Francisco and Hong Kong. His second label, Dwico, is equally successful and is a take on casual wear and uniform. Dwico has been known to have big names such as the W Retreat & Spa Bali as clients. Dwico is also known as the preferred casual wear for many of the island s high-profile socialites. PHOTO BY NAMHAR HERNANTO OCTOBER

70 SHOPPING BASED DESIGNERS PUTRI MERTANINGSIH The island s fashion-conscious ladies should know Dinda Rella, a label synonymous with high fashion. Few people, however, have heard of Putri Mertaningsih, the Balinese beauty who owns and designs the label. In some cases, models can become very successful designers, and Putri is testimony. Before gaining notoriety for her exquisite beading, crystals and rhinestonestudded silk and satin designs, Putri was a runway model. Yet, unlike her fellow models, she enjoyed spending more time backstage talking to the designers. It was then that she started to develop a passion for designing dresses. Though she has had no formal education in design, Putri s passion for fashion and creativity has earned her label high esteem amongst the island s stylish female crowd and those who love beauty and elegance. To Putri, looking good does not mean having to sacrifice comfort; for her dresses are designed with elegance and practicality in mind. Her philosophy is to create Dream in Dresses for women who love masterpiece quality. Putri s wedding dresses are complete with the headpiece and accompanying flower girl dress, and they are her highest-demand designs. She rarely fails to put a smile on her clients faces. She s the kind of woman who touches a fabric and knows how it feels to wear it; she looks at a heel and knows how far she could walk in it. That said, Dinda Rella has become one of the most sought-after fashion labels now, because what started as a salon boutique in 2006 has grown to a number of outlets in Bali (Seminyak area and some exclusive resorts and hotels) and Jakarta.

71 VALE: IDA AYU KOMPIANG SUTARTI OKA (Wife of the late Raja Bongkasa Drs I Gusti Gede Agung Oka) Ibu Kompiang died peacefully in her Sanur home on 3 rd September 2011, aged 79. She had been playing cards with friends in the morning and was gone (lebar) by lunchtime. If any lady deserved a peaceful transition, after a full life of service to her family and community, and to the Indonesian Republic, it was Ibu Kompiang. Her popular husband, Bapak Oka, had been head of Depdikbud (Dept. of Education and Culture) in Bali for almost a decade and went on to be head the National Sports Council in Jakarta, always with Ibu Kompiang as head of the Dharma Wanita Ladies Auxiliary. Born into Denpasar s brahmana house, Geria Tapakgangsul, the daughter of Pedanda Gede Karang and sister of the well-known boulevardiers Gus Pang, Gus Pong and Gus Pung she was part of a generation of smart, uberelegant ladies which included Ibu Ida Ayu Diwangkara, owner of the Diwangkara Hotel next to the Grand Bali Beach. I first knew Ibu Kompiang when she was secretary to (the then) Hotel Bali Beach G.M., Siegfried Biel, the German visionary who first gave Ubud-based artist Hans Hoefer a leg up in 1970, as publisher of the first APA GUIDE, The Guide to Bali on his way to becoming Southeast Asia s most successful travel book publisher. Ibu Kompiang was my first mentor in Sanur society (when I was a tennis coach at the Bali Beach). I learned at this time that she had had to deal with all the 50s and 60s legends including President Soekarno, artist Le Mayeur, antiquaire Jimmy Pandy, Cultural Tourism pioneer Wija Waworuntu, Diparda head Pak Riyasa and artists Donald Friend and Ari Smit and would have had a pivotal role in stabilizing society, with her young husband, post the tumultuous and bloody era of the Communist Insurrection. She ran an artshop in the Bali Beach arcade and hosted gatherings of the legendary Chicago Group of upper echelon local government officials the club of royals who loved Charlie Chaplin movies, Frank Sinatra music and Balinese Culture of which she was the last survivor. She raised five perfectly-mannered children who all married children of other first families (Puri Agung Sukawati, Puri Agung Karangasem and Puri Carangsari, amongst them) and was a loving grandmother to 15 grandchildren. In later years she was a permanent court fixture at all royal weddings and cremations and guided her home palace, Puri Bongkasa, into its position as a popular, classic venue for lavish Balinese feasts and dance performances. She was a people s princess in the true sense of the expression, and a great lady. She was as egalitarian as she was royal her smile and trademark giggle could warm a courtyard of stuffy courtiers from 50 paces. She is survived by her seven children, her brother Pedanda Gede Ngurah Karang known as Gus Pung and three other siblings. OCTOBER

72 86 OCTOBER MASS TOOTH-FILLING AND NYEKAH AT SAYAN, UBUD

73 Every year, on Lebaran, Bali s most glamorous Javanese lady, Tatie Waworuntu traditionally holds a Halal Bihalal open house for her large family, and for her Bali friends. As doyenne of Bali s now burgeoning community of Jakartans, Tatie is the hostess with the mostess. No-other matriarch can compete with the Indonesian treats that grace her table, and her exquisite garden. This year there is a bouquet of daughters, daughter-in-laws and granddaughters flittering around Tatie Waworuntu s garden like exotic butterflies. 5 th September 2011: To Puri Bongkasa Palace, West of Sayan, to melayat after the death of another great lady (see box). There are only a handful of Balinese palaces left which still have spacious well-maintained courtyards and purely traditional pavilions. The Bongkasas have lived in Sanur for most of the past 50 years in a large compound next to the Segara Village Beach Hotel; despite this they have managed to keep their home palace in top working order. Melayat is the Indonesian custom of visiting the house of the deceased in the hours or days after the death. The visitor usually gives an envelope of cash or gifts. In Bali it is mandatory to give a length of white kasa cloth, and some rice and sugar, as a sign of solidarity and respect. Today I sit with the deceased s sister-inlaw, as lines of nobles from Bali s first families from Puri Klungkung, Puri Sukawati and Puri Sayan file past the ceremonial pavilion where the body of the late matriarch lies in state, and take up honoured positions in the high pavilions, where high tea is served (See my video Melayat on watch?v=t5v57ualr0g and youtube.com/watch?v=u5vhksdbmjy This will go on for the next 6 weeks until the cremation on the 22 nd October. 9 th September 2011: Seminyak s oldest eatery celebrates 20 years in the business In 1991 a few Italian friends and a Balinese starlet started Seminyak s first fine-dining restaurant with a view over the rice fields. Husbands came and went but these ladies stuck together, despite age and cultural differences. Simona was a third generation hotelier, and Mary Rossi an aristocrat from an ancient Sicilian family of meat-packers. Dayu Sri is an Ubud Brahman with an hour-glass figure. She is widely regarded as the Paulette Godard of Batu Belig. The rice fields have long gone but the Puri Sayan princes atop the float carrying a palace ancestor s spirit effigy to the cremation ground. restaurant remains, as a base for expat sun-lovers and theme party enthusiasts. Despite stiff opposition from other big eateries local restaurants with similar clientele such as Sarung and Metis among them it is really only Made s Warung Seminyak which rivals Warisan as a banjar for boisterous bulé and their local friends. Bravo Dayu Sri, Mary Rossi, Jean-Paolo, and Simona and may Warisan help the high-kickers and high-rollers for another 20 years! 11 th September 2011: To Pura Dalem Kawi, Sayan, near Ubud, for a mass tooth-filing ceremony The puberty ritual of mepandes when the top six teeth are filed down is often held in conjunction with the exquisitely refined series of rites held for the purification of departed souls. The offerings for both sets of rituals are similar; both involve the gathering of all family members. Multiply that by 100 and you have an idea of the scale of the mass events popular in the highland villages of Bali these days. Today I arrive in an outer temple court as the famous albino water buffalo from Taro village is getting a load of offerings; the ceremony is taking place next to the grandstand of the soul effigies, all glittering with gold leaf crowns and rice pastry towers. Inside the temple, the celebrants are dressed as angels the boys with rouged lips and artificially arched eyebrows; the girls in classic Balinese bon-bon confectionary. In the morning light, with the angklung gamelan playing and the priest s bell ringing, it feels like the prettiest place on the planet. The local prince lead-drummer in the gamelan and is scheduled to ride the magnificent float to the cremation ground at noon. He tells me that the gamelan is a gift of Tuan Colin McPhee, author of Music in Bali, in At noon, pre tooth-filing, the angklung starts a haunting processional tune; and the 100 celebrants and 150-odd spirit effigies plus one albino water buffalo then process three times around the tight outer court. It is the most beautiful ceremony I have ever seen. See my video on com/watch?v=y_ BEvh1893E and watch?v=veyetjconce OCTOBER

74 SECRET BALI The new family temple blessing ceremony The life of the Balinese is filled with ceremonies, rites of passage, appeasement of the gods, ancestors and the spirits of the fields. It is a ritualistic life and filled with meaning. While in the southern areas, many Balinese have problems juggling their spiritual life with the business of making business, in Karengasem most people still have plenty of time to follow traditions. TEXT AND PHOTOS BY AYU SEKAR 88 OCTOBER

75 Up in the hills behind Amed, the small village of Bangle plays host to a ceremony to bless a new family temple. The family is big. Six patriarchs from the mountains have a domain of relatives that extends from the mountains, to Buleleng, Klung Kung, to Denpasar and even to Sumbawa. It is a meeting of the clans. The impressive new temple is ready to be blessed, the gods entertained, the spirits of the ancestors appeased, as they are shifted from their old home. While the family is not rich, no expense is spared to make the ceremony impressive and give both the gods and the guests a good show. The ceremony starts long before dawn, as the pigs are slaughtered and prepared for roasting over the charcoal. Lawar is made with the chopped pig meat and mixed with vegetables, coconut and spices. Soup and sticks of satay are prepared, also with meat and coconut ready for roasting. By 9am it is time for breakfast. The meal is served Mengabong, the Karengasem style where groups of five or six people gather around a communal plate of rice with delicious satay, chunks of roasted pork, the soup and lawar- this is real Balinese ƒood spicy and full of flavour. Sharing food in this manner engenders a feeling of community and sharing. After breakfast, it is time for the entertainment Rejang dancers and a talented mask dancer put on an enchanting performance. The Bangle Gamelan ensemble, the best in the area, plays, setting the scene for the dancers. As with all Balinese ceremonies, the atmosphere is very relaxed. People come and go; talking, sitting together and taking it easy. Cool breezes blow up the green valley; someone comes around bearing glasses of tuak, freshly harvested from the palm. The dancers continue their dance; everything is in order. The entire ceremony is explicit with symbolism. The spirits of the ancestors must be moved to the new temple and many preparations have been made. In the inner courtyard several large holes have been dug. The perdanda, or high OCTOBER

76 SECRET BALI priest, presides over the ceremony as symbolic offerings are put into the holes while prayers are recited, before they are again covered over. Later in the day a crowd makes its way to the springs to pray and collect holy water, a ritual known as mesuci. With brightly-coloured umbul umbul leading the way the procession is a beautiful sight as it meanders along the narrow track. It is late in the day when the procession makes its way back. The sun has dipped behind the towering hills and the cool of the evening has descended. A family Permangku stands waiting with holy water. Women stand with offerings. It is coming to the highlight of the day when the temple will be blessed and brought alive. Men stand by with ceremonial daggers (keris) ready to dance and to welcome the gods to the temple. There is a lot oƒ shouting and animated dancing as they wave the keris in the air. Then it is time for prayers in the new temple. Each participant is sprinkled with blessed holy water and peace descends. The next morning there will be tajin or a cockfight in the outer temple grounds. Later the old temple will be knocked down, as the spirits of the ancestors have all moved to their grand new home. 90 OCTOBER
