• Nepasin Narkoba di Buléléng  + (Taruna Goak is the name for Buleleng Youth … Taruna Goak is the name for Buleleng Youth/War Troops under the leadership of Raja Ki Barak Panji Sakti. Goak cadets were known to be very strong, never give up, had superior character and were specially formed so they were able to attack and defeat Blambangan (East Java) at that time. The toughness of the Goak Cadets is still known today, as a symbol of the greatness of the Buleleng Youth.</br>However, what is the current situation of Buleleng Youth? Are still as tough as Taruna Goak?</br>The character of Buleleng Youth today is inversely proportional to the Character of Buleleng Youth in the past. Currently, quite a few Buleleng youth are caught in promiscuity and cases of drug abuse and illegal drugs.</br>At the end of December 2023, BNN stated that Buleleng Regency was included in the Red Zone for drug abuse cases and the most widespread was crystal methamphetamine. The Head of the Buleleng BNNK also stated that over the last 5 years as many as 397 people have been rehabilitated, who of course also come from various groups such as students, university students and others. Of course, this is a serious problem and must be resolved and handled together.</br>Several things that influence drug abuse include; firstly, the growth of curiosity and a sense of wanting to try, secondly, the influence and association of the surrounding environment which is not good, thirdly it is caused by depression or excessive stress, as well as many other reasons.</br>Regarding this problem, of course there are several solutions that can be offered apart from the government's efforts in making related regulations, namely; First, young people must get rid of their desire to try and try to think about the negative impacts of drug use. Second, try to find positive activities to avoid promiscuity and drug abuse. Third, support from family and those closest to you will also be very influential. And the important thing for young people to pay attention to is maintaining mental health to avoid depression or severe stress which can trigger drug and illegal drug abuse.</br></br>If this effort is carried out, young people will definitely be able to avoid drug abuse and grow into active, productive and superior young people, just like Taruna Goak in the past.people, just like Taruna Goak in the past.)
• Peralihan Potensi Lapangan Pariwisata untuk Mengembangkan UMKM  + (The Potential Transition of Tourism Resour … The Potential Transition of Tourism Resources to Develop UMKM</br></br>Greetings, Om Swastyastu, Assalamualaikum Warohmatullohi Wabarokatuh, Shalom, Namoh Buddhaya. Goodwill and peace to all. We express our gratitude and thanks to the One Almighty God for allowing us to participate in the "Provincial Bali Oratory Competition" with the theme "Bali Orates" and the topic "2024 Election: What is the most pressing issue to be addressed by Bali's future leaders?". In this regard, we present arguments focusing on "how the management of tourism, by harnessing the potential shift of employment towards UMKM, can coexist with the progress of tourism for Bali's future leaders."</br></br>Post-Covid-19, Bali is assessed as unable to rely solely on the tourism sector as the sole backbone of the regional economy. Serious resource exploration is needed so that Bali has a number of alternative sources of economic income. This consideration is essential for Bali to withstand crises and global challenges. It is an opportunity to organize and pay attention to the development of UMKM in Bali, potentially redirecting the economic base from the tourism sector.</br></br>The negative impact of the current tourism sector chaos in Bali stems from arbitrary behavior by tourists towards the Balinese people. Bali's residents are disturbed by reprehensible actions by tourists, whether permanent residents or just visitors. Examples include religious desecration, inappropriate behavior in sacred areas, disturbances in public areas, land grabbing from Balinese residents, and various other disturbances, all of which have a detrimental impact on the lives of the Balinese people.</br></br>The government of the Bali Regional People's Representative Council (DPRI), a politician from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-Perjuangan) faction, outlines several potential economic resources that can be seriously explored in Bali, including agriculture, marine, and creative economy sectors. Strengthening each sector, he notes, will contribute to economic equality in the Island of the Gods.</br></br>Recognizing that UMKM are a sector capable of sustaining Bali in times of crisis, support for regulations and education for the empowerment and protection of UMKM is crucial. It is emphasized that diversifying beyond the tourism sector is essential. Chairman of the Bali Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI), Tjok. Oka Sukawati, sees this as a significant moment for Bali's UMKM to learn from other UMKM, especially those outside Bali, fostering innovation and product quality development.</br></br>In response to Prof. Ramantha's statements, Ny Putri Koster, as the Head of the Regional Craft Council (Dekranasda), considers her actions as part of her responsibility to bridge UMKM with consumers. She builds synergy with relevant government agencies, such as the Bali Provincial Trade and Industry Office.</br></br>In conclusion, we hope that future government candidates prioritize programs in the UMKM sector over tourism, yet maintaining attention to Bali's tourism. This oration serves as a reference for future programs. In closing, we express our gratitude. Om Santih, Santih, Santih Om, Wassalamualaikum Warohmatullohi Wabarokatuh, Shalom, Namoh Buddhaya. Goodwill and peace to all.Namoh Buddhaya. Goodwill and peace to all.)
• ULUWATU LACE  + (The Yak spoke with Ajit Khatai, ceo of Ulu … The Yak spoke with Ajit Khatai, ceo of Uluwatu handmade Balinese lace – the 50-year-old true Bali legacy fashion brand – about life in Bali, the journey so far and the future for the brand.</br></br>How has Bali been for you?</br></br>Been here since the beginning of the 2020 pandemic. I think one word for life here would be: healing.</br></br>What does Uluwatu Handmade Balinese Lace mean to you?</br></br>Magical and challenging on so many levels. A fashion business in Bali. A brand that’s core skill-set is lace. Only two colours (white and black) to the range planning. Tourists as primary customer. Language barrier. An immensely talented pool, which is aging.</br></br>How is it that sophistication and simplicity exists seamlessly in Uluwatu Lace? We know it’s not easy. How do you manage to achieve it?</br></br>It looks easy, because ours is a story of Bali. We carry the soul of everything that’s beautiful here. By layering simplicity over and over, we are able to create sophistication. Our pursuit is perfection. Our founder Ni Made Jati focussed on love for creating great designs. She was inspired by modern women who are independent and rebellious. Over the years, we have redefined this modern woman. I think these three elements, Bali, Simplicity and Perfection are our secrets.</br></br>How did the brand start…</br></br>In the 1970s it seemed a good business proposition. Bali had an abundance of lace skills. An influx of foreigners was allowing exploration of new silhouettes (before lace was predominately used on Kebayas). Our founder saw the possibilities. Those were times when Bali was getting started on its lasting reputation of being heaven; of secret idyllic beaches where seekers and hippies found the surf, sand and beads, and loads of sunshine to tan their skin. She adapted the lace to the new world, from airy over layers to breezy gowns for the evening fire. The Bohemian spirit has been alive ever since.</br></br>Uniquely, the Uluwatu Lace brand is cemented deeply in Bali’s history and colonial past. Can you briefly tell us more…</br></br>No-one starts out to make history. Our journey gave us two rights: time and place. Bali’s lace tradition of krawang or Lobang is a rich living craft. Earliest evidence showing its use is in the 10CE, during the end of the Majapahit reign. Almost 1,000 odd years of existence. There is an unsubstantiated belief that Kerawang is the classic crochet lace of Northern Europe. Said to be carried by missionaries who travelled with the Dutch East India Company (VOC). The timeline could be anywhere around 1600CE. But the real impact can be attributed to after 1796, when the VOC was abolished and the Dutch government gained control over Indonesia, which continued until 1941.</br></br>And then there was the modern journey…</br></br>Yes. Somewhere around mid ’70s, Kebaya was getting its space as a classic apparel which was introduced as modesty. Lace got incorporated into the Kebaya. We have been trying to perfect the art form ever since then. This evolved into the temple culture, to exactly the same clothing culture we witness in Bali today. We have managed to transform it into something desirable globally. Breaking the limitations of design was the tipping point. With just two colors, white and black, it was a sure recipe for disaster. The fact that we are still here is something bigger than a miracle. But here we are…</br></br>Why white and black?</br></br>Our journey was for excellence. I suppose we reached this point naturally. It is difficult to reason why in a 50-year journey. An intelligent guess is, white was preferred due to the tropical climate and black was easy to handle. In the early years, consistent yarns in colors was not an easy proposition. Whatever the reason, we are memorable because of the two colours.</br></br>How many people are involved in making your designs?</br></br>Our family is around 500 individuals. More than three quarters of this number are involved in the design creation and the rest are in support operations. Each person in our ecosystem is a lifelong partner to creation of these exclusive designs.</br></br>What makes this brand click?</br></br>Love and Bali. You immerse in this paradise. In return the paradise diktats that you respond with honesty. That’s what we give. We do not dilute our principles to suit business obligations. Our products are made in the old fashioned way. We have steered clear of shortcuts. Each and every piece is made in the same traditional method of bamboo hoops and slow needle whirring to make the lace. Love has its own karmic journey. Maybe it’s the love that’s responding back.</br></br>What are the attitudes in fashion changing over the decades? Where is fashion’s future for designs with your niche?</br></br>Look at the fashion around the world. Lace and crochet are consistent. Lace is here to stay. That speaks loads on the future of lace in fashion. It’s a classic embellishment in fashion. Women love it. It’s not going away anytime soon. We are a lace brand. We need one purchase to happen in a thousand in our market to stay in business. That’s a simple logic for excellence. We have to keep creating the most simple, sophisticated designs with the same passion. Great designs don’t need volume. We are content right now.</br></br>What does high thread count mean to you and why is it important to your company?</br></br>Yarn is the key. Our yarn goes through immense stress, which makes it absolutely essential to have a unique tensile strength, which is stable in the lace making process, avoiding brittleness. We have conjured up a specific blend of rayon yarns to achieve this over the years. It stays unbroken for the longest stretch of action. That brings the unique sheen to our lace.</br></br>How has the Covid Pandemic affected your brand?</br></br>It’s been a kind of blessing in disguise. We found time for course correction. Our focus diverted from sales to being janitors (cleaning up the brand). We found scope to refine our skills. Created a data-bank of designs. Refined the skills that had been acquired over 50 years. We updated software and improved processes. Basically we did a lot of clean-up. We had to ensure our designs remain heirloom pieces. Creating possibilities of engagement to lace designs. We conceptualized a Balinese Lace Museum and initiated the process of getting nominated as a heritage craft. It was a long list.</br></br>Which design will be your all-time superstar creation? Is there a story in its creation?</br></br>We love almost all our ’70s designs. The decade when chic, colour and pool parties were the epitome. The age of revolution … styles that clicked. Then we were busy making something revolutionary to be loved. We got our foothold in fashion in the ’70s.</br></br>How are you involved in the creative community in Bali?</br></br>As the flag bearer of Balinese Lace Fashion, we are the finest on the block. Both the founder and myself are pretty much very private people. Our direct visible engagement remains slower than we would like. However, we engage with artists, graphic artists, photographers, musicians and actors. We love to be the support to young creative talents.</br></br>What are the current design projects at Uluwatu Lace?</br></br>This year we are engaging in a lot of very interesting projects … I like to call in non-invasive cross-innovation, where we identify non-parallel creative techniques to come together in an organic symbiotic visual extravagance. Our designers are busy rejecting designs to arrive at acceptable designs. For example, imagine trying to combine lighter Endek fabric with Balinese lace. Both techniques cannot overpower each other. The balance of weight, colour and flow is an absolutely challenging experience.</br></br>Which particular Indonesian / international celebrities could wear your designs and embody what they mean?</br></br>For us, Happy Salma is the epitome of what Uluwatu Lace is supposed to mean. She is the purity of how our design should be expressed. In the case of Hollywood, I would love our designs on Alicia Vikander. Her athletic features and Grecian expression are timeless. And of course, Priyanka Jonas Chopra’s dusky exoticism. If they are reading this … we love you!</br></br>What’s next for Uluwatu Lace?</br></br>Short-Term: make our mark on the Paris, New York, London and Tokyo fashion scenes. Medium Term: Get listed in UNESCO heritage craft category. Long Term: hopefully keep creating inspiring designs. We have a goal to make the brand 100% sustainable with minimum carbon footprint. Engage with blockchain technology to track the impact of our brand. We also hope to have a community fingerprint, where we go beyond our business obligations and leave lasting imprints within the community that defines us.</br></br>IG: @uluwatu_handmade_balinese_lace</br></br>FB: @uluwatulacebali</br></br>www.uluwatu.co.ide FB: @uluwatulacebali www.uluwatu.co.id)

But we as a people on this island can't say anything more. For the public should follow the directions of the government, such as vaccinating, using masks every day when meeting with others, paying attention and implementing a healthy lifestyle and other things. Actually from my personal side does not want to be so opinion more but we ourselves who should be aware of what is being faced at this time. The first thing is certainly from yourself who must carry out, secondly there is a family that is closest to ourselves and then start doing this healthy lifestyle to the surrounding community. If all parties have done so, believe me all will be healthy and free from this plague. But this pandemic teaches us to be more grateful to be aware of the circumstances that occur and what will happen. Let us together take care of ourselves first to be healthy, if we have done so believe me all will definitely come back over time.e all will definitely come back over time.)

As we can see in the surrounding environment, there is still a lot of rubbish scattered on the roads, in rivers and also in ditches. If the rubbish in the gutter is not cleaned it will make the gutter full of rubbish and during the rainy season it will cause flooding because there is no waterway.</br></br>Prospective Balinese leaders must be firm with people who throw rubbish carelessly. The most important waste that must be resolved is plastic waste. Plastic waste in landfills has overflowed. If this plastic waste is embedded in the ground, it will prevent plants from getting good water. Moreover, if the plastic is burned it will cause pollution. Bali's prospective leaders must solve this waste problem. Maybe elected leaders can create an association or training to recycle plastic waste. What started as plastic waste became crafts such as flowers from used plastic, pencil cases, flower pots, and others. These crafts can be sold and people who don't have jobs can make money.</br></br>This solution might help reduce waste in Bali, and at the same time help the government with the waste problem.

• Menerapkan Konsep Pariwisata Berbasis Masyarakat  + (Tourism has a significant impact in terms … Tourism has a significant impact in terms of employment and local income. However, dependence and wrong management can make tourism one of the causes of over-exploitation of nature and make Bali's condition even worse during the COVID-19 emergency. People are increasingly choosing to work in the hospitality sector rather than the domestic sector, namely agriculture and plantations, so that during a pandemic the agricultural sector also becomes difficult due to the lack of land, good systems and human resources. Though this sector can be a solution to improve the economy of Bali.</br>One solution that can be done without choosing one of these two sectors is to apply the concept of community-based tourism or CBT. This concept can be developed by forming a tourist village so that it can become a forum or economic stimulus for rural communities. The concept of a tourist village that is widely developed in the Java area itself focuses on rural life and natural conditions that are a tourist attraction. Community activities in farming and farming can be an alternative attraction for tourists from outside the region, especially because Bali itself has a unique agricultural system. By implementing this system, the level of sustainability or sustainability of tourism and nature will be better. Of course, when there are disasters or natural phenomena that affect mass tourism like what Bali currently has, the concept of tourism planning is a good solution. If tourist visits decline, there is still a reliable agricultural sector. In addition, this concept can then become the new face of tourism in Bali with the growing trend of the hospitality business, beach panorama and hedonistic, while cultural attractions are starting to be abandoned. This CBT concept requires a good master plan so that its development is right on target. In addition, this concept can also be a solution to achieve the SDGs or Sustainable Development Goals and avoid excessive exploitation, especially to nature.essive exploitation, especially to nature.)
• CWAN  + (Tourism is one of the important factors in … Tourism is one of the important factors in the nation's economy, especially for the Balinese people. The occurrence of the Covid-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on the community, especially in the tourism sector in Bali. The emergence of Covid 19 resulted in a drastic drop in tourism income in Bali, starting from small traders, large businesses such as hotels, resorts, villas, drivers, luxury restaurants.</br>In an effort to revive Bali's tourism at this time after being affected by Covid 19, there are several ways that need to be input between implementing CWAN (Cheap, Work Together, Available, Negotiation).</br>Cheap in the sense of lowering or lowering the price of the main conditions for traveling in Bali such as swab tests or PCR, and quarantine will be very influential for the interest of visitors to visit Bali because they do not spend more money than they should and do not reduce the money prepared for the holiday.</br>Work Together requires relations between one country and another, regional relations with other regions as well as groups and individuals need to work together, commitment and the right policies.

• Tyra Kleen  + (Tyra Kleen (29 June 1874 - 17 September 19 … Tyra Kleen (29 June 1874 - 17 September 1951) was a Swedish artist, author and women's rights activist. Her paintings, illustrations, lithographs and publications were important to the Swedish fin de siècle art movement. But above all she was an independent ethnographical researcher.</br>In 1919, after WWI, she traveled to Java and Bali on a Swedish cargo ship. In Solo (Surakarta), Kleen worked with Beata van Helsdingen-Schoevers to write an anthropological study on the ritual court dances of Solo. Both also participated in the dance lessons. Kleen felt that dancing not only involved making the right movements on the sound of music, but that it also involved the transition into an altered state of mind to become in harmony not only with oneself, but with the Universe.</br></br>Unfortunately, this project ended in July 1920 in turmoil due to clashing personalities, and van Helsdingen-Schoevers died 17 August 1920 of an unknown disease. The project was finished in 1925 with help from "Volkslectuur" (the commission of folk literature), Mabel Fowler and miss Gobée, wife of the Head of the Office for Internal Affairs, titled "The Serimpi and Bedojo Dances at the Court of Surakarta", with 16 pages of text. In July 1925 there appeared a new edition with 30 pages of text. The coloured plates were reproductions made by the Topographic Service of Kleen's drawings. For everyone involved, but especially Kleen, the result was very disappointing, because she wanted to participate in this project in order to result in a standard reference work that could be presented worldwide.</br></br>When she arrived in Bali in 1920, she started a new project on the mudras, or ritual hand poses, of the Balinese Hindu priests with the assistance of the Rajah of Karangasem, Gusti Bagus Djilantik, whom she had met in Solo the year before, and of Piet de Kat Angelino. This was a turning point in her career because de Kat Angelino was able to explain to her the mudras and also encouraged the priests to cooperate. He was district-officer (controleur) of Gianjar and Klungklung for over a decade and had been collecting material on Balinese priests for years in his home in Gianjar. At his home, she could draw priests and their mudras. Their work together is presented in the book Mudras, with text and illustrations by Kleen, who acknowledged that much of the technical information about the poses and ceremonies came from de Kat Angelino and later on from R.Ng. Poerbatjaraka. Kleen spent the whole of 1921 in Java, working on the material collected in Bali the year before. She exhibited her pictures of the priests at the Art Society in Batavia. Collaboration with de Kat Angelino continued and she met him in Amsterdam on her way home. With his help an exhibition was arranged at the Colonial Institute in Amsterdam. The exhibition was favorably reviewed by de Kat Angelino in the magazine Nederlandsch Indië, Oud en Nieuw. What was the reaction at that time in the Netherlands on her work in Bali? Anne Hallema, a Dutch journalist and art-criticus wrote a critical and extensive article on the Mudra's which appeared Elseviers Geïllustreerd Maandschrift, Jaargang 34, 1924 pp. 145–147. He disqualified her work as an artist but praised her for her scientific contribution. He ends his article with stating that we have to be grateful that this stranger from the land of Selma Lagerlöf toke the initiativ to study the mudra's of the Balinese priests in performing his Hinduistic rituals. Specially the Indologists and Orientalists should be happy with the appearance of this publication.</br></br>Another crucial exhibition was Två vittberesta damer (Two Travelling Ladies) at Liljevalch's Public Art Gallery in Stockholm 1922, where she showed art and artifacts from Java and Bali together with Swedish photographer and author Ida Trotzig contributing works from Japan. This exhibition was the starting point for the "Bali-fever" in Sweden. Kleen's depictions of mudras were shown at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1923.</br></br>Besides Mudras, Kleen published two other books about Bali: Ni-Si-Pleng, a story about black children written for white children (1924), and, seven years later, Tempeldanser och musikinstrument pa Bali, printed in 300 numbered copies, translated in 1936 as The Temple Dances in Bali.</br></br>Kleen's study on the mudras, the exhibition in Amsterdam at the Colonial Institute and the publication of her books made her internationally known. For her scientific ethnographic work on Bali, Kleen was awarded the Johan August Wahlberg silver medal in April 1938, given to individuals who have "promoted anthropological and geographical science through outstanding efforts".</br></br>Walter Spies was the central figure in the circle of artists residing on the island in Ubud, Klungklung and Karangasem. He was considered to be the greatest expert on Balinese dance and drama. Together with the British dance critic Beryl de Zoete, he wrote the standard 1938 work Dance and Drama in Bali. Spies was jealous of the international success of Kleen[citation needed] and wrote a very critical nine-page review of the Temple Dances in Bali in the journal Djawa (1939). He complained, "the text and the depictions are filled with so many mistakes, errors and incorrect statements that one must shake one's head." Spies claims that as an ethnographic document the book has no value. As a result, there were nearly no references to the work of Kleen in any ethnographic periodicals or publications after this critical review. It is only in 1962 that C. Hooykaas in his article "Saiva-Siddhanta in Java and Bali" supported the importance of the study on mudras by de Kat Angelino and Kleen.</br></br>Kleen contributed work to various European magazines, including Sluyters' Monthly, Nederlandsch Indië Oud en Nieuw, Ord och Bild and Inter-Ocean, between 1920 and 1925 and influenced in this way the perception and expectations of foreign visitors to Bali. Furthermore, she influenced with her colourful, vivid and dynamic art-deco drawing style the development of painting by local artists in Bali, not in a one-way influence but more a kind of mutual influence.Mostly these local paintings were made for the touristic market and depicted daily life instead of exclusively being concerned with gods, demons and the Ramayana and Mahabharata epics. In this way, she took part in the marketing of "the last paradise". This also meant that she became associated with this type of magazine drawing instead of her more important ethnographic publications. more important ethnographic publications.)

Donal puts painting as mainstream in his creative process. His struggle and his trust in the power of painting is an inseparable part of a human being’s sense of beauty.</br></br>He joined in group exhibitions from 2005, and had solo exhibitions from 2014. 2005, and had solo exhibitions from 2014.)

Tourists are not allowed to go to Bali so that Covid-19 virus does not spike again. This causes Bali tourism to decline. Balinese people who work in the tourism sector do not get jobs. The Bali government has issued a policy that is used to suppress the spread of the Corona Virus. One of the policies is the implementation of restrictions on community activities or what is known as PPKM (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat). This causes the spread of Covid-19 to decrease. </br></br>Because the government already has efforts to reduce the spread of the Corona Virus, we as the next generation can help the government to improve Bali tourism. There are many procedures that can be used to improve Balinese tourism. The first way is to promote Balinese tourist destinations using social media. This requires the participation of the Balinese people. Those who like to upload photos while on vacation to tourist destinations in Bali can also help develop and improve Bali tourism. Indonesia has a website that is used to promote Indonesian tourism. </br></br>Second, the public can help provide tourist destinations in accordance with health protocols related to government policies, as well as maintaining the cleanliness of tourism places.

Maybe Balinese artists can provide counseling to the younger generation on how to make art. This can foster a sense of love for domestic products and can encourage Balinese cultural works with the younger generation.</br></br>Well, that's a little bit about the procedure to restore Bali tourism during the pandemic.

We can use this advanced technological development as a tool to generate tourism in Bali. One of the creative businesses that can generate tourism in Bali is an application called BALI MELALI. This application uses technology in the form of VR or Virtual Reality. In the BALI MELALI application, it displays tourism destinations in Bali. If you use this VR technology, tourists or anyone who has downloaded the BALI MELALI application can see the tourism places that we want. Using this VR, tourism destinations in Bali can be seen for real, this can foster a sense of longing for Bali and cause tourists to want to come again to Bali.</br></br>In the BALI MELALI application, it not only displays well-known tourism destinations, but should also display places that are not widely known. In Bali, there are actually many tourist destinations that are not well known. If you only show places like Kuta Beach, Pandawa Beach, many tourists will already know. That's why in this application it is very good if it shows places that are not known by many people. Not only that, the BALI MELALI application does not only display virtual or images, but can be filled with sounds that are in that place. For example at Candikuning Waterfall, if we travel to waterfalls, there are definitely sounds like the sound of gurgling water, the sound of trees blowing by the wind, the sound of birds and so on.</br>The presence of images and sounds in the BALI MELALI ibi application can certainly cause longing from tourists and travel to Bali. Hopefully the business in the form of the BALI MELALI application can help Bali tourism return to normal. Hopefully Bali tourism will rise soon.al. Hopefully Bali tourism will rise soon.)

It wasn’t a coincidence that I noticed it perched in a tree,” says Balinese artist Wayan Sila. “This was a</br>special experience and powerful omen. A gift from the Gods to me.”</br></br>The owl is much revered by indigenous cultures and in folklore around the world as a</br>guardian spirit, as well as a wise creature capable of extraordinary sight. Balinese</br>mythology reveals that if an owl visits a family compound while a female member is</br>pregnant this is indeed a positive sign. Burung Hantu literally translates from bahasa</br>Indonesia into the English language as ghost bird; or the owl, the mysterious bird of the</br>night.</br>“I have a unique connection with owls. It is a potent image that resonates with my heart. I</br>was intuitively led to draw the owl and then I began to include it in my works. It has now</br>manifested into a personal symbolic image, equivalent to the Barong. The owl also</br>encourages me to reflect on the joy that I derive from my family life,” says Wayan.</br>Born in Ubud, 1970, Wayan Silawasinspired by his grandfather, well known local artist</br>Wayan Barwa. From an early age he regularly visited Barwa’sstudio and gallery,</br>surrounded by the paintings of his Balinese heritage, this was the perfect scenario for a</br>child to learn to draw and paint.</br>Wayan soon became adept in the “Ubud Style” of modern traditional Balinese painting. In</br>the evolution of Balinese painting during the last century, from its origins of the Classical</br>Kamasan style that concerned teachings from the Hindu Epics, each village then began to</br>create their own distinctive style.</br>The Ubud style moved away from the religious and began to be characterized by</br>narratives that involve daily village life and depictions of rural and environmental</br>landscapes. The artists from Ubud were quick to adopt western influences in the 1930’s,</br>depth of field, shades of color, localized narratives and the development of the human</br>figure. The Kamasan style was originally a collective work and never signed by an</br>individual. The new personalized and expressive form of Balinese painting has its roots</br>firmly entrenched here in Ubud.</br></br>Wayan’s canvases are beautifully composed and resound with an overwhelming sense of</br>balance and harmony. His highly detailed works are first sketched in pencil then outlined</br>in black Chinese ink, finally they are rendered in acrylic paint with a fine kaus bamboo, a</br>small piece of bamboo crafted with a tiny point to apply the medium. A large canvas, 100 x</br>80 cms, may take up to six months to complete. “In 1997 I was inspired to include owls in my compositions after seeing a wonderful sketch by a Japanese child.”</br></br>Wayan’s relationship with the burung hantu then activated an endearing association with</br>the people of Japan, to whom the owl is symbolic of happiness. He first visited Japan in</br>2002 and his premiere solo exhibition there was in 1998. Every year since then Wayan has </br>enjoyed the privilege of exhibiting work in galleries, department stores, even in the</br>Indonesian Consulate in Tokyo. He has held over 15 solo exhibitions in Japan, and</br>numerous other exhibitions in Bali, Jakarta, Spain and also at the prestigious Agung Rai</br>Museum of Art in Ubud.</br></br>“It’s an honor for me to be invited on intercultural exchange programs teaching young</br>Japanese students traditional Balinese painting techniques. I do this each year when I visit</br>Japan.” Wayan has since developed a healthy market for his works there and continues to</br>ell to the Japanese tourists who often visit his Ubud studio/gallery.</br></br>Wayan Sila, acrylic on Canvas, 2012,</br>45x 60cm.</br>Wayan Sila</br>Garden + Bale studio of Wayan Sila.</br>Wayan Sila. 2012, chinese ink +</br>acrylic on canvas, 60x80cm.</br>Wayan’s cooperative works with Japanese poet Yoko Jatiasih have been the focus of two books. They initially</br>collaborated in 1998 to create music and poetry for his paintings. In 2004 their first book “Kata Kata” Echoes From The</br>Woods, and then in 2010 “Pelan Pelan” were published.</br>Browsing through these books, the creative synergy between the two is easy to recognize. Yoko’s short poems, no more</br>than 6 lines, resonate with an uncomplicated intelligence. Upon the opposing page to the text are Wayan’s</br>complimentary images created especially to accompany each poem.</br>As you contemplate the words essence, as well as study Wayan’s images, the mysterious bird of the nights’full round</br>eyes are firmly transfixed upon you. The fusion of words along with the images perplex the imagination, and then defy</br>you to believe their medium is the owl’s silent and alluring gaze.</br>In 2011 Wayan relocated to his new studio gallery in Jalan Bisma in Ubud. Journey 400 meters along Jalan Bisma until the</br>roadside urban development gives way to the effervescence of the padis. Down on the right hand side nestled in the</br>sawah you will find his small abode. Look for the sign on the road then follow the narrow path that divides the green</br>swaying fields to his studio/gallery encircled by the bamboo fence.</br>Wayan has created a personal space that reflects the elements that enrich and sustain him. Situated in the middle of the</br>yard he has built a bamboo bale which functions as his studio, yet also as a place of quiet retreat. The surrounding</br>garden is abundant with organic vegetables, fruit trees, medicinal herbs, ornamental shrubs and flowers. Indeed, Wayan</br>has created his special own oasis.</br>As you enter his two Bali dogs are quick to offer enthusiastic toothy greetings. The verdant vegetation is soothing and</br>inviting. I discover two rabbits, four exotic birds and frogs and snakes frequent visitors, so Wayan tells me. Stone</br>carvings covered with brilliant green moss hide among the foliage, shrines and small Hindu temples are adorned with</br>offerings and the sweet sent of burning incense seduces the senses. An outhouse serves as a simple kitchen and two </br>rooms contain Wayan’s gallery painting collection and books for sale.</br>When we observe Wayan’s paintings we enter into a beautiful and extraordinarily tranquil world. His owls’ peer out</br>from within forests and lush scenes, their big eyes possess a magnetic pull and communicate a language that is</br>deciphered in our hearts.

• I Nyoman Popo Priyatna Danes  + (“What the modern architecture is still try … “What the modern architecture is still trying to achieve today has been implemented in the traditional Balinese architecture for centuries now, where the concepts of energy conservation and environmental preservation are amongst the fundamental elements in every design.” – Popo Danes</br></br>From private homes and restaurants to starred hotels and luxury resorts, the renowned Balinese architect Nyoman Popo Danes is known for his exemplary designs that showcase a distinct flair of being in harmony with the local culture and nature. This green-conscientious architect always integrates eco-friendly aspects of Bali’s traditional architecture into his designs.</br></br>“While some architects are very focused on making their buildings look stunning from the outside, my main concern has always been the functionality of each aspect of the building. I always make sure that my designs are in harmony with their natural surroundings; that each room has a function; that a strong connection between the architecture, landscape, and interior is established. I don’t care if my architecture is not photogenic, as long as it serves its function well.”</br></br>As an international destination, Bali attracts people from all corners of the world with its uniqueness. Therefore, Popo believes that every building on the island needs to be able to help these people feel that they are in Bali. “When you travel, you want to be immersed in the local atmosphere. In Bali, a building should exude the feeling of locality so when you enter it, you know you’re not in Jakarta, Hong Kong, or anywhere else.”</br></br>The works of the two-time ASEAN Energy Award winner (in the category of Best Practice in Tropical Architecture) are known as some of the most striking in design, functionality, and environmental consciousness. Air conditioners take up the biggest energy consumption in a building, and Popo’s eco-friendly creations have the ability to ‘communicate’ with nature to lessen energy consumption through the overuse of air conditioners.</br></br>“I create buildings that have open pavilions (just like in typical Balinese buildings) to allow breeze to blow in, and I don’t put too many glass windows. Then again, air circulation or heat is not the only reason why air conditioners are overused. People also tend to turn their air conditioners on to escape from the noise pollution outside their buildings. When all windows and doors are shut, it’s quiet inside. This is where nature steps in. Towering trees can be a great noise filter, and they also serve as a fresh, cool air provider.”</br></br>From Indonesia to India and China to the Philippines, most of Popo’s architecture projects involve challenging landscapes. “It’s never easy. A lot of projects i’ve been doing so far (especially for luxury resorts) involve slanted soil, hilly surfaces and everything else not flat. Of course I can always take the easy job; for example in Bali, I get so many offers to design a building on a flat surface. The thing is, in order for me to build it, I have to get rid of a rice field. I will never build anything on a rice field. Rice field is a symbol of prosperity for the Balinese, and is home to the goddess of prosperity, Dewi Sri.”e to the goddess of prosperity, Dewi Sri.”)

The number of motorized vehicles and cars increases every day. As a result, cars, public transportation and motorbikes pile up on the streets, traffic jams occur. Congestion can also slow down the performance of people who are stuck in traffic jams. Workers will be late arriving at work and students will arrive late at school. This especially happens to people who choose to use private transportation rather than public transportation.</br> Traffic jams occur because too many people use motorized vehicles or cars and also because many road users do not comply with traffic regulations.</br> On this occasion I would like to invite you to overcome traffic jams in Bali. If we cannot overcome them, at least we can reduce traffic jams in Bali. There are 2 main things we can do to reduce congestion. First, use public transportation, don't use private vehicles, using public transportation can reduce the volume of vehicles on the road. In the end, traffic jams will be reduced. Second, get used to walking if the distance is not too far. This method is simple but difficult to do. Even though walking is healthy, and by walking we are contributing to reducing traffic jams in Bali. I am sure that by taking these 2 actions traffic jams in Bali can be reduced.</br> However, the Bali Government is expected to improve the comfort and safety of public transportation. I am sure that if public transportation is safe and comfortable, there will be more passengers. Finally, the number of private transportation users will decrease by itself.</br> This is all I can say, hopefully it is useful for all of us. Sorry if there are wrong words and actions.

Before that, let us pray to the presence of Almighty God. Thanks to Him, we can gather here with happiness at the Bali Public Participation Wikithon with orations, which carries the theme, Election 2024: what are the most urgent problems to be addressed by Bali's prospective leaders ? Hopefully events like this can be held frequently to develop a threatening Bali.</br></br>Happy guests, as we know, Bali is known as the island of a thousand temples with its very beautiful environment, which is often visited by foreign tourists, because Bali is one of the focuses of tourism in Indonesia. This is what drives many foreign tourists to come to Bali. Even though Bali is a tourist destination, this is not the main topic of discussion, but there are problems that have a significant impact on Bali. As we know, this so-called era of destruction, if we talk about the problems in Bali, will cause Bali to collapse. Unfortunately, the problems in Bali have not received treatment that is useful for the island of Bali.</br></br>Happy guests, if you look at life now it is certainly different from previous life, especially with the problems, the most important problem is related to the environment and land of the island of Bali which has been built up and used as a tourist attraction, this is what will make the island of Bali In terms of land and environment, it will become increasingly narrow, if all the land and environment in Bali is made into a tourist attraction, where will we (humans), animals and others live and live our daily lives? Talking about the land environment that has been converted into a tourist spot, of course there are many daily activities carried out to produce plastic waste for society, this is what will become Bali's next problem. The existence of rubbish in Bali is very sad and gets very little attention, this is what creates big dangers, for example: floods, dengue fever and others. Moreover, as has recently been reported, the rubbish bins or Suwung landfills in Bali are very full and cause fires, giving rise to smoke pollution which causes disease. Are we all willing to live and do activities in dirty places? Of course, many of you are reluctant to live in a dirty place. </br></br>Happy attendees, if I conclude it is related to the problems in Bali, so that Balinese leaders can provide solutions related to problems: the transfer of land or the environment to become tourist attractions and the rampant waste which has not received special attention from the government. Based on these problems, if we don't work together from now on as the front guard, it is certain that the island of Bali will gradually collapse. The island of Bali, which has been nicknamed a thousand temples, will lose its sanctity. Based on these problems, my hope is that the elected leader of Bali 2024 will be able to find a solution so that the Balinese people can implement the noble values that exist in Bali, namely TRI HITA KARANA, because these problems are related. with the TRI HITA KARANA value, so that Bali can return to the way it was before.</br></br>Happy guests, that is the speech I can deliver, I hope you all are aware of the current condition of Bali.re aware of the current condition of Bali.)

She was also heavily involved in the psychoanalyst scene, and was interested in integrating and harmonising the self through the process of writing. Therefore it is no surprise that she idealised the idyllic island of Bali—a quiet refuge in which man lived in harmony with his universe....</br></br>In 1955, Anaïs first took LSD under the guidance of Aldous Huxley and wrote a beautifully evocative description of her visions and subconscious landscape which included images of Javanese temples, Balinese music, symbolic dance gestures before finally finishing with the conclusion, “Ah, I cannot capture the secret of life with WORDS.” She was beginning to reveal what her soul desired deep down—for Anaïs, utopia was a state of mind in which the artist had access to the world of dreams. Perhaps this is why she fell in love with the mysticism and art of Bali. In her final journal (volume 7 of her diaries) she finished with a reflection on her trip to this island, complete with magical descriptions of sacred cremations, opulent gardens, temple dances, Wayang shadow puppets, natural-material bungalows used as hotels, the haunting music, and the sophisticated and gentle ways of the Balinese people."d and gentle ways of the Balinese people.")

There are many things that can help realize this golden Indonesian era, one of the two most influential things is the QUALITY OF YOUTH and GOVERNMENT INTELLIGENCE.</br></br>The quality of teenagers in Indonesia itself is very low, we can see from the evidence in the field that there are still many teenagers who cannot get the essence of a sentence. This is influenced by the education system which does not provide space for children to express all the ideas they have, the education system in Indonesia still places great emphasis on recitation and monotonous methods, even though there is a solution from the government regarding independent learning methods which are considered to be the solution to this problem, I felt it needed to be developed. Therefore, the government must think one step further to develop the education system in Indonesia, because this is a function of the intelligence of the leaders that we hope for in order to create sharp knives for teenagers.</br></br>Don't forget the stunting problem experienced by children in Indonesia, this causes many children to grow and develop with very, very minimal brain capacity. Is there a solution from the government?</br>Of course, we have to consider this together, because it is only through children and teenagers that the Indonesian nation can achieve its desire to become a golden Indonesia, which is likely to be just a fantasy.</br></br>Hopefully, through this media, the government can consider things that are really urgent for it to do, and can lead the Indonesian nation towards a golden Indonesia with the Sharp Knives of Youth.

• Symon  + (A stylistic heir to Walter Spies, Le Mayeu … A stylistic heir to Walter Spies, Le Mayeur and his mentor, the Indonesian-Dutch painter Arie Smit, Symon was among the last in the lineage of foreign artists who have helped raise Bali’s international profile as an exotic destination for art and design. Renowned for his vivid pop style with new iconic motifs, he was born on April 13, 1947, as Ronald Thomas Bierl in Detroit, Michigan, the United States, and made Bali his home in 1978. He was installed in the Puri Kaler of Ubud Palace by the Ubud royal family, who had for decades been patrons of foreign artists. Symon later took over Arie Smit’s cottage in nearby Campuhan, where his studio grew into local landmark. In 2014, he moved full-time to his other destination studio at Alas Sari in North Bali, Art Zoo, which he had founded in 1998.</br></br>Symon, who passed away on April 15, 2020 of natural causes from sepsis, was incredibly prolific and successful, creating many thousands of artworks in several countries.</br></br>His work was widely collected by tastemakers like former minister Joop Ave, especially during the 1990s and 2000s trend for Asian neotraditional style. Many collectors built submersive Symon environments, as at Qunci Villas in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. A book series on Southeast Asian interiors had to swap some paintings in many of its featured homes because too many of their architects and owners had put Symons on their walls.</br></br>Symon’s art is cherished for its vivid color, strong outlines and exuberant energy. His figurative paintings and sculpture project a friendly, fantastical appeal, combining the rawness of real-life models and scenes within compositions from mythology and lesser-known Bali history. His sense of line, hue and witty slogans draw from his origins as a cartoonist in the 1960s American counter-culture.</br>Raised in a house at the corner of Detroit’s Normal Road and Common Street, he was far from normal or common and yearned to escape convention. He was an exciting personality to be around, popping with fresh ideas. An outrageous showman, he would tell wild anecdotes and burst into rhyming raps. As a precocious teen under the pseudonym John Ka, he wrote to Beat Generation poets like Allen Ginsburg, William Burroughs and William Carlos Williams, who sent him new poems to illustrate. He soon became an artist in underground zines like Fifth Estate and got to know New York legends like Frank Zappa and Andy Warhol.</br>Until making Bali his permanent home, he kept trying new locations. As a youth, he twice ran away to Rome, where he studied under the sculptor Emilio Greco and got the attention of film director Federico Fellini, who dubbed him “the magician of the air”. On the overland route from Amsterdam to India, a road accident in Turkey broke his hip. While recovering he renamed himself Simon White. He finally made it to India and then went north to Nepal.</br></br>Over eight years in Kathmandu, Simon helped preserve the traditional art of Tibetan woodblock printing. With three partners he opened Himalayan antique shops in London, Amsterdam and New York. Like many “Easties”, he became expert in Asian traditional knowledge, which later infused his artworks. In the mid-1970s, Simon spent periods in the New York art scene, Colombia and Wales, England. In each new location, his studios echoed Warhol’s Factory in being a networking hub and a venue for arty “happenings”. He formed several creative teams, from the Psychic League in Rome and Fantabulous Group in Nepal to the Levitation League in Legian, Bali. In his Ubud garden, he staged theatrical productions at the amphitheater designed by the futuristic architect R. Buckminster Fuller. In each location, he trained up teams of local artisans. In Nepal he hired Tibetan refugees to carve new and replacement woodblocks to the old ones he printed from. He brought screen printing to Bali in the 1980s and then to Cambodia in Minefield Studios at Siem Reap in the early 1990s. His most famous breakthrough was JakPak, a range of convertible clothing co-created with Annie Anderson and Kiyoshi Okuda, in which pop-hued jackets and hats could turn into bags through hidden pockets. JakPak became Bali’s first clothing export and an international phenomenon collected by the likes of Mick Jagger.</br></br>Symon kept ahead of the curve, since his aim in life was constant reinvention under a motto “towards a functional reality”. Many of his creations were practical as well as fun, from JakPak to his Toyniture — quirky furnishings like his Lady Chairs and giant dining table. He conjured outlandish architecture, like his key-hole windowed pagoda at Art Zoo, which he filled with sculptures and oddities. The maximalist effect of all these “studio atmospherics” beguiled visitors and in turn became props for his paintings. The Art Zoo remains visually stunning. Symon’s heir and Art Zoo’s Balinese manager aim to reopen it as a destination where locals and tourists can continue to appreciate Symon’s distinctive art of Bali.ppreciate Symon’s distinctive art of Bali.)

However, since Covid-19 has wreaked havoc on the world, tourists no longer travel to Bali. Likewise, Bali's tourism life is dead. This has a bad influence on the economic, social, and psychological aspects of the Balinese people. Balinese people who work in tourism currently do not have a livelihood, this causes problems in the economic field. Because everything that is needed must be purchased using money, it makes people sad, problems arise in the psyche. Under these circumstances, there are now many beggars and buskers at crossroads who wear Balinese traditional clothes, problems arise in the social sector. Because the death of Bali tourism has a bad effect, it is necessary to find a way out so that tourism can bounce back.</br></br>Since the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic, digital technology or in the network is growing. This digital technology can generate Bali tourism. How to? In my opinion, currently, the government can sell the existence of art, culture, and natural beauty to the world market through the website. The website can also be filled with virtual exhibitions using 360-degree technology, such as digital exhibitions that have often been carried out by people abroad. With one website, you can fill in several videos and virtual exhibitions from art museums throughout Bali. Through this website, tourists do not need to come to Bali, but only with digital experience, they can enjoy the natural beauty of Bali.</br></br>Now what can also be developed is the performing arts or performing arts which can be recorded and shared online or digitally. Balinese people who have not got jobs can be embraced to learn together performing arts such as Kecak and other colossal dances. It needs to be noted, those who want to watch every video on the website must buy a ticket in advance.</br></br>From some of the opinions I conveyed above, the development of digital technology can be a bridge to awaken Bali tourism while preserving Balinese art and culture. In addition, currently, each tourist spot must prepare health protocol equipment so that anyone who wants to travel to these tourist attractions still pays attention to health protocols to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. Hopefully, the pandemic can disappear soon, the world will return to normal, and Bali tourism can rise and stand strong.nd Bali tourism can rise and stand strong.)
