He is best known as a Batuan Ethnic Fusion guitarist and his ability to play double neck guitar. Balawan has developed the 8 Fingers Touch Style technique, which also known as the Touch-Tapping Style. He is often regarded as one of the fastest guitarists in Indonesia. He is also called The Magic Finger guitarist among the world's music community.</br></br>Personal life</br>Balawan listened to Balinese gamelan, a traditional music style from Bali, since birth. At the age of eight he taught himself to play guitar. He joined his first band when he was 14 years old. Although he grew up in a traditional Balinese culture, Balawan played more rock songs than gamelan. Some of his favorite bands were The Scorpions, Deep Purple and The Beatles.</br></br>Eventually he became bored with rock music and decided to study jazz at the Australian Institute of Music in Sydney.During his studies towards a Diploma of Music, he was awarded a three-year scholarship. He studied in Sydney for about five years, during which time he also gained popularity for his exceptional talent of playing guitar and jazz music. After he obtained his Diploma of Music in 1997, he went back to Bali and formed a band called Batuan Ethnic Fusion, which combined the traditional Balinese gamelan music with jazz / fusion style.</br></br>Career</br>His first professional band, Batuan Ethnic Fusion, is still active. Besides being a band member, Balawan is also working on his solo career and has released three albums. His first solo album was "Balawan", which released in 1997 by the Acoustic Music Label, a German company. Later, he worked with an Indonesian company, and with his band, he released his first band album, "GloBALIsm", under Chico&Ira production in 1999. Recently Balawan launched his second solo album, "Magic Fingers", under the Sony-BMG Music Indonesia label. Magic Fingers really showcases Balawan's abilities in arranging and composing and his ability to blend modern music with traditional Balinese gamelan.</br></br>Indra Lesmana about Balawan: "It's always exciting to find new things in art and Batuan Ethnic Fusion is a perfect example of artist who explore into the great spectrum in art with passion, love, beauty and freedom..." </br></br>As Balawan is considered as the only Indonesian guitarist who able to develop and use the "Touch Tapping" style, he often plays in Germany and Norway.

In 2011 Balawan appeared at the 16th Other Minds festival in San Francisco.</br></br>Technique</br>Balawan has developed and expanded a technique called "Touch Tapping" style. The technique enables the guitarist to play two or even three different music progressions at the same time using the same instrument continuously. Another notable player of this technique is Stanley Jordan, an American jazz/fusion guitarist. Balawan developed the same progression with Stanley Jordan, that he is able to produce a piano, bass and guitar at the same time using just one instrument.</br></br>Usually Balawan uses all four fingers of his right hand to create the melody progressions and his left hand to create the bass and rhythmic sounds. Another unique thing is that there is no pattern or repetition whatsoever between the left and right hand. Thus Balawan has a very exceptional skill of playing guitar.</br>Balawan also plays drums, both to fill the tracks on his albums and to develop the "Touch Tapping" style.</br></br>Equipment</br>Since Balawan needs to play rhythmic progression and melody at the same time, he uses a special guitar with two necks made by Tommy Kaihatu that also known as Rick Hanes Guitar. Balawan's Rick Hanes Guitar has a double neck with six strings on both upper neck and lower neck, which utilises MIDI pickups to translate the notes he plays into MIDI notes played via off-board synths and samplers.</br></br>Balawan uses Rick Hanes guitars exclusively, which are Balawan Double Neck Series, Balawan Mini Guitar Series and Essel-Balawan Custom Series.

On this auspicious occasion, allow me to deliver a speech titled “Issues Arising from Land Use Change in the Life of the Balinese Community.”</br> Ladies and gentlemen, land use change refers to a shift in the function of land from its previous purpose. Land use change in the Bali region has become increasingly prevalent lately, marked by phenomena such as the reduction of productive agricultural land. Indonesia is an agrarian country, and a significant portion of its population works as farmers. What will happen if agricultural land, the source of basic necessities for the Balinese people, continues to be converted into residential areas, coupled with an influx of newcomers requiring them to build dwellings? Another observable phenomenon is the decrease in water catchment areas. Soil is a powerful rainwater absorber. If land with soil is converted into housing, buildings using concrete and paving will indirectly reduce water catchment areas. This becomes hazardous when the rainy season arrives, and the increased use of concrete and paving reduces water catchment areas, leading to higher water volumes and flooding in certain areas. In the last rainy season in Bali, there were numerous flood disasters that resulted in residents losing their homes. Such events will undoubtedly have a negative impact on sustainability, as if left unchecked, the relatively small island of Bali, combined with the increasing trend of land use change, can cause discomfort in the surrounding environment, a decline in food productivity, global warming, and many other terrifying consequences of land use change.</br> Based on these issues, I hope that the future leaders in 2024 can provide solutions to address the escalating land use change. Bali’s leaders are expected to be faithful custodians, safeguarding the land of Bali and enacting regulations that prioritize and champion the land, customs, and culture of Bali.</br> To all my friends, let us protect the land of Bali from the dangers of land use change so that Bali’s land remains sustainable. That is all I can convey; I apologize for any shortcomings. I conclude with Parama Santhi, Om Santhi, Santhi Om. with Parama Santhi, Om Santhi, Santhi Om.)
  • Ngelawan Gelombang: Tantangan Banjir ring Kabupaten Badung  + (In Bali Province, as in many other tropicaIn Bali Province, as in many other tropical regions, floods have become a serious issue that often disrupts the daily lives of residents. One of these areas, Badung Regency, faces similar problems, and several solutions can be proposed to address them. Firstly, the construction of a better drainage system is an important step in flood mitigation. Efficient drainage can help facilitate the flow of rainwater and prevent waterlogging on roads and residential areas. Regular cleaning and maintenance are also necessary to keep the drainage system functioning optimally.</br></br>Furthermore, vegetation planting and land rehabilitation can be long-term solutions to strengthen soil absorption capacity. By increasing vegetation such as trees and shrubs, rainwater can be more easily absorbed by the soil, reducing the risk of erosion. Afforestation and restoration programs can help improve the ecosystem and reduce the risk of future floods. Additionally, better spatial planning is key to preventing floods. Local governments need to ensure that development takes into account environmental aspects and flood risk potentials. Mapping flood-prone areas and controlling development in those areas can reduce vulnerability to floods.</br></br>Increasing public awareness is also crucial in efforts to address floods. Through education and campaigns, residents can be informed about the importance of environmental conservation and eco-friendly behaviors, such as proper waste disposal and vegetation preservation. The more people involved in environmental conservation, the lower the risk of floods. Moreover, technology can be an effective tool in flood anticipation. Early warning systems connected to weather monitoring can provide quick and accurate information about potential floods, enabling early evacuation and other mitigation measures.</br></br>Furthermore, the use of technology in drainage management and flood control can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of these efforts. With a combination of various solutions, it is hoped that the flood risk in Badung Regency can be reduced. It is important for the government, the community, and other stakeholders to collaborate in implementing these solutions to create a safer and more sustainable environment for everyone.more sustainable environment for everyone.)

However, SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar has taken proactive steps by introducing the Zero Waste concept to its students.</br></br>Zero Waste is a lifestyle philosophy aimed at reducing, reusing, and recycling all produced waste, so that nothing is disposed of in landfills. This initiative has changed students' perceptions of waste, from something to be discarded to a resource that can be reused.</br>One of the activities carried out in the Zero Waste program at SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar is the management of organic waste. Students learn to compost organic waste into fertilizer, which is then used to produce green plants in the school environment. Thus, not only reducing the amount of waste entering landfills, but also producing positive benefits for the environment.</br>Additionally, the school encourages students to use eco-friendly products and reduce the use of single-use plastics.

It is not surprising that one hundred tons of waste is collected in Denpasar City every day. This is very dangerous if you don't pay attention, because it can make the damaged area worse. As a result, many other problems arise in the city of Denpasar because of this disease.</br></br>This problem cannot be left to the government alone, but the active role of society is needed. There are many ways that can be done to overcome the problem of blindness, one of which is by increasing public awareness of the importance of the problem of blindness. As a student, even in high school I was still taught by teachers to always care about the environment through the P5 program implemented at school. Through this program I think that this stupid problem can be solved by cultivating Magot. "Maggot Power Culture to Overcome the Lice Problem in Denpasar City" The City Government has helped overcome this flea problem with advanced technology, every citizen can help the government in this flea problem by cultivating maggots because maggot cultivation can break down organic waste into fertilizer or in Bali is often called nyanyad.

Before we deliver our oration, let us offer thanksgiving to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa with Om Swastiastu. </br></br>In recent years, the cases of suicide in Indonesia has become increasingly worrying. Indonesia, as a country that adheres to a collectivistic culture, also has a fairly high number of suicide cases. WHO estimates that in 2020 the suicide rate in Indonesia could reach 2.4 percent of 100,000 people if it does not receive serious attention from various parties. Bali Province is one of the provinces in Indonesia that has a fairly high number of suicide cases. Most suicide cases in Bali are committed by teenagers in young adulthood. One of the factors that influences the emergence of behavior, including suicidal behavior and suicide attempts, is self-concept. Self-concept is an individual's perception of himself, his perception of his social environment, and his perception of other people's views of him. Apart from that, the environment where you live also has a big influence on a person's mental health. If someone is in a positive environment, of course their mental health will be better maintained. However, if someone is in a bad environment, it can have a negative impact on that person's mental health. One of them is that it can cause suicidal thoughts. Therefore, suicide cases really need attention from the public so that they understand and are more open about mental health for teenagers. </br></br>But unfortunately, suicide cases are often underestimated by most of society. People think that mental health is not important to pay attention to. In fact, someone who has mental health problems really needs the attention of the people around them to continue to receive encouragement and attention. With all the existing problems, attention and encouragement are needed from the community and government in dealing with suicide cases in Bali.</br></br>In an effort to overcome these cases, the government can optimize mental health screening by providing outreach to the public to create awareness of the importance of mental health for humans, especially teenagers. Apart from that, society and the government can also build an anti-suicide community for teenagers to minimize the existing death rate and teenagers can also express the feelings they have. By adopting this solution, it is hoped that society and the government will become more aware of the importance of mental health. In this way, it is hoped that society can build a positive environment so that the death rate caused by suicide cases will decrease. Let's care about the importance of mental health! </br></br>That's the speech we can deliver. If there are something wrong in words or writing, please forgive us. We close with Paramasantih.

A program that is viral, well-known and used as a role model among the people of Klungkung is the TOSS (Local Waste Processing Place) program. This program received a lot of praise and positive comments from the Klungkung community, and from outside Klungkung. However, recently the TOSS program has not run according to the initial plan and has been ineffective in solving the waste problem in Klungkung. The acting Regent of Klungkung, I Nyoman Jendrika, said that the main problem in Klungkung is the increase in waste volume by up to 2 times, from previously 16 tonnes now to 32 tonnes a day. In other sources, some say that the cause of this waste problem is a lack of public awareness about the function of a beautiful and clean environment. This is also what causes Klungkung to have a lot of rubbish.</br></br>Now, what solutions should we take as the young generation of Bali to create a sustainable and clean Klungkung area? The solution that I can convey and recommend is to implement the Tri Hita Karana teachings.</br></br>Why Tri Hita Karana? What is the relation?</br></br>Tri Hita Karana is one of the Hindu teachings in Bali. Tri Hita karana means "3 things that cause prosperity", which is divided into 3 parts:</br></br>1. Parhyangan: Parhyangan is our relationship with Ida Sang Hyang Widhi as the ruler of the universe. I think, if we discuss the word "Parhyangan" we will definitely think of the means of prayer and offerings. However, what I want to discuss is not that, but this parhyangan is about our behavior in holy places such as temples. We should maintain the cleanliness of the temple, by cleaning or offering ngayah. Existing rubbish must not be thrown into rivers or sewers, but must be processed into something more useful. This is also a form of our good relationship with Ida Sang Hyang Widhi.</br></br>2. Pawongan: Pawongan is our relationship with other humans. As Balinese people, we should help each other and care about human suffering. Based on the waste problem, we can all implement the teachings of Tri Hita Karana by reminding each other about the importance of a clean and healthy environment. I mean, waste processing in Klungkung doesn't have to be done and processed by TOSS and the government alone, but we all have to try to sort or process waste in our homes. If we could sort and process it in our respective homes, the problem of waste piling up in Klungkung would definitely be resolved.</br></br>3. Palemahan ; This Palemahan is one of the teachings of Tri Hita Karana which is most appropriate to the waste problem above. We as citizens of Bali, especially Hindus, definitely believe that humans, animals and beasts are God's creation. Therefore, our relationship with our environment must be maintained. One way to protect our environment is by processing waste. We as the people of Klungkung certainly already know about this TOSS program, therefore let's work together to sort and process waste from our respective homes so that this TOSS can run smoothly and effectively.</br></br>In essence, the teachings of Balinese ancestors are things that should be implemented in this era of globalization. Although, it is possible to implement it using modern understanding and methods. We as teenagers or the young generation of Bali should not be lulled by globalization. We must be aware of the latest news, and always preserve Balinese cultural traditions as a role model in our efforts towards a beautiful and clean Bali.fforts towards a beautiful and clean Bali.)

  • Rintihan suara rakyat yang tidak memiliki kuasa tuk memilih  + (Ladies and gentlemen, I am present here toLadies and gentlemen, I am present here to voice an echoing yet unheard plea, which is the fate of the cries of abandoned and cruelly tortured animals. The Island of Bali is too beautiful to be inhabited by these grim animals.</br></br>These animals are pets tortured cruelly for personal pleasure, beaten to disability out of hatred, stolen to be eaten. Animals employed like the overworked horses forced to endure harsh conditions. Experimental animals, such as frogs dissected without anesthesia, also suffer unwarranted pain.</br></br>I appeal to the Bali Province Regional Council to strengthen Regional Regulation No. 1 of 2023 regarding the Protection of Flora and Fauna. I highlight the ambiguity in the rules regarding the definition of "keeping" animals in Article 11 paragraph 1 section c. However, in Article 1 paragraph 9, it states that Wildlife includes all animals living on land, in water, or in the air, retaining their wild nature, whether they live freely or are kept by humans.</br></br>With clear and robust legal foundations, many positive things will emerge: more people will dare to speak up for animal protection, impart moral lessons to children, and raise awareness of the importance of compassion towards animals, boosting the government's morality in the eyes of the public. Communities or individuals independently rescuing and caring for these animals will also be supported and have continuous collaboration with the government.</br></br>Together, let us make Bali a safe and comfortable place for the animals living here, following the footsteps of developed countries like Switzerland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Germany, and Australia in animal protection. Through this speech, what I "HOPE," becoming what "WE" HOPE, and ultimately becoming what "WE ALL" HOPE FOR.

  • PENDIDIKAN SANE BECIK PINAKA PIRANTI ANTUK NINCAPANG KUALITAS SDM BALI  + (Ladies and gentlemen, jury and coaches whoLadies and gentlemen, jury and coaches who I respect, as well as the participants of the BASAbali Wiki Oration competition that I love. Om Sywastyastu. Through a pure and sinless heart, I never cease to express my gratitude to God Almighty, because with His blessings, I can meet with this audience today. In which I participate in the oration competition in today’s Public Participation Wikithon. Hopefully, events like this will continue to grow in the future, making Bali strong. Ladies and gentlemen, the subject of my oration is titled “Good Education as a Tool to Improve the Quality of Bali’s Human Resources”.</br></br>Ladies and gentlemen, what made me take that title? Because from a lot of what I see I conclude the youth in Bali do not get a good education. This makes it difficult for Balinese human resources to get a job that can develop the economy of the province of Bali. According to data from the Central Bureau of Statistics in 2021, the percentage of Balinese who did not go to school was 1.03 thousand people or 24.04%; then those who did not graduate from elementary school were 377.18 thousand people or 8.83%. Based on these data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, the government and Balinese people, especially students, should try to implement programs that can help Balinese people who have not received proper education. Then, what programs can be implemented? Let’s think together.</br></br>As a Balinese youth, I will provide solutions or suggestions to the ladies and gentlemen of the DPD Bali as well as the government who is the mouthpiece of the community, to always help provide good knowledge to all Balinese. The first suggestion: pay attention to the quality and quantity of the teachers. Teachers or educators are like the main key that will teach or provide knowledge to students. If teachers’ wages, facilities and accommodation are not good or adequate, it will affect the teaching process. Secondly, school and classroom support facilities should be prioritized. When the learning process takes place, but the facilities used are not complete, of course the teacher and students will have diffulties and the learning process in the classroom will be disrupted. The third suggestion is to provide the youth with positive out-of-school activities or out-of-school learning programs. Good examples are carrying out and participating in competitions, participating in community service programs as well as other useful work. With these activities students do not only to learn at school.</br></br>Ladies and gentlemen, based on the many things I have talked about, I would like to conclude as follows. The Balinese government and people should not underestimate education. Because through education, we can get a good job to improve the quality of Bali’s underdeveloped human resources. Also the Balinese are expected not to be swayed by the wealth that exists in today’s world, called “Industrial Revolution 4.0”. Let us together help Balinese who have not received a good education through positive and useful programs or activities. Lastly, we should introspect ourselves so as not to forget ourselves and together carry out our religious obligations by strengthening Bali.</br></br>Well, ladies and gentlemen whom I respect very much, that’s all I can say on this good day. Thank you to those who have witnessed my speech. Hopefully what I have said will be useful. For any shortcomings, let me apologize. In closing, I say paramasanthi. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.ramasanthi. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.)

Allow us to express our gratitude to Ida Sang Hayang Widhi Wasa, for it is through His grace that we gather on this auspicious day. With heartfelt devotion, we begin with panganjali:</br></br>Om swastyastu</br> </br>our honorable guest, the oration we will deliver today is entitled "Foreign Citizens are disturbing the Balinese people". Recently, foreign tourists or "foreigners" in Bali have been in the public spotlight because they are acting up and making people anxious. Instead of being deterred, foreigners who were found committing various violations in Bali actually resisted when the police took action. Not just one violation but many violations committed by foreigners, such as: 1. Increased Traffic Violations:</br>Statistical data records a dramatic increase in traffic violations committed by a number of foreigners. A lack of concern for road rules and safety not only threatens local communities but also creates significant risks for foreigners themselves. This increase reflects troubling non-compliance, necessitating more effective enforcement actions and more intensive awareness campaigns.</br></br>2. Adverse Immigration Problems:</br>High levels of overstaying and violations of immigration regulations create a serious burden on the immigration system. The economic and social impacts of this behavior are very real, given the resources that must be allocated to deal with these cases. Increased controls and enhanced immigration enforcement actions are imperative to ensure compliance with existing provisions and maintain the integrity of the immigration system.</br></br>3. Establishing a Business Without a Permit:</br>The establishment of businesses without proper permits by some foreigners is detrimental to the local economy, creating disproportionate inequality in business competition. This problem not only concerns economic aspects but also raises questions of rights and justice in business. An in-depth evaluation of the economic and social impacts of these practices is needed to determine solutions that can address these problems without harming those who comply with the rules.</br></br>4. Non-compliance with Environmental Regulations:</br>The behavior of foreigners who do not comply with environmental regulations creates a serious threat to ecological sustainability in Bali. These cases include littering, damage to local plants, and violations of sustainability principles. A thorough evaluation of the long-term impacts of this environmental damage needs to be carried out to understand the implications for the ecosystem and the welfare of local communities.stem and the welfare of local communities.)

  • Ngwangun malih titi pengancan kewagedan  + (Libraries are often thought of as a bridgeLibraries are often thought of as a bridge to knowledge, a place where individuals can find lessons, inspiration, and entertainment. However, in the city of Denpasar, Bali, libraries face a number of problems that impede public access to this valuable intellectual resource. With the experiences and stories of local people, we can understand how important it is to overcome these challenges and rebuild the foundation of libraries as inclusive and effective learning centers. One of the major problems faced by libraries in the City of Denpasar is inconsistent operational schedules. Many libraries are only open during normal business hours, even on weekdays, making it difficult for workers or students with busy schedules to visit. In fact, some libraries even close on weekends, when many people have free time to study or enjoy reading. This causes frustration and reduces the public's interest in using library facilities. In addition, unresponsive service and lack of effective communication are also constraints. Many visitors feel that library staff are unfriendly and unwilling to help. The experience of Sekar, a local resident, reflects a common experience where simple requests such as finding a wifi password or a membership registration procedure are not responded to well. This results in a difficult experience and less motivation to return to the library. In addition, the lack of information about the operational schedule and library services is also a problem. Many libraries do not actively update their information on online platforms such as Google Maps, making it difficult for the public to know when the library is open or closed. This causes confusion and uncertainty, especially for those who do not live near libraries or have limited access to the internet. To address these problems, concrete steps need to be taken by governments and stakeholders. First, libraries need to expand their operating schedules, including opening on weekends and at night to reach more people. This will provide an opportunity for individuals with busy schedules to access library resources. In addition, training for library staff in customer service and effective communication is also important. Library staff should be equipped with the necessary skills to provide friendly and responsive assistance to visitors. This will help create a more welcoming environment and encourage people to use library facilities more comfortably. Equally important, libraries should increase their efforts in disseminating information about their services and operating schedules. This can be done through a variety of communication channels, including social media and library websites. By providing clear and easily accessible information, libraries can rebuild public trust and increase their participation. With these steps, the libraries in the City of Denpasar can play a more effective role in providing access to knowledge and supporting lifelong learning for its community. By improving their systems and services, libraries can become inclusive and inspiring centers of learning, helping to build a brighter future for future generations. a brighter future for future generations.)
  • Bandana Tewari  + (Lifestyle journalist and sustainability acLifestyle journalist and sustainability activist Bandana Tewari believes storytelling and personal responsibility have a huge part to play in the reformation of the fashion industry.</br></br>When you were starting out in fashion, what were the issues facing the industry, and at what point do you think attitudes to fashion and especially fast fashion started to change to incorporate ideas of sustainability?</br></br>I worked at Vogue India for thirteen years. It was a time when the Indian market opened up to a deluge of international luxury brands. There was much optimism and excitement about the massive aspirational population of India, the cynosure of multinational companies eager to conduct business in the Indian subcontinent. At this point, conspicuous consumerism was applauded and encouraged – signalling a modern India that was willing to spend money, display affluence, and be the sartorial arbiter of a young nation. There was no awareness of conscious consumption, of sustainability and environmental impact of the incredible waste and excess that plagues the fashion industry today.</br></br>In all honesty, the risks of over-consumption and the perils of fast fashion, as we now know of them, came into our collective consciousness only recently. The Rana Plaza disaster of 2013 in Bangladesh was the most brutal symbol of a global fashion industry gone wrong. It exposed a terrible truth: a multi-trillion-dollar industry was systemically plagued by unimaginable inequalities, both economic and social. This Rana Plaza disaster – when five garment factories collapsed killing more than 1,100 people, mostly women – created a global uproar. The world woke up to a fashion industry that pays some of the lowest wages, conducts business in such unsafe work environments, it creates untold disregard for human life. And then the environmental issues ensued which saw rivers and farms in developing nations being clogged and degraded with industry waste creating irreparable harm to people and the planet.</br></br>It is through the exposé of the extraordinary pains of ordinary people who make our clothes that led to a monumental change in the way we perceive the business of fashion.</br></br>How seriously do fast fashion brands like, let’s say H&M, really take the concept of waste within the industry? Are these efforts to improve sustainability just an exercise in greenwashing?</br></br>We are drowning in clothes – many of the approximately100 billion garments sold each year go into landfills or are incinerated – both harmful to the environment. According to Fast Company, H&M produces three billion garments a year and till 2019 was sitting on $4.1 billion worth of unsold clothes, some of which, we are told, became fuel for a power plant in Sweden. While many initiatives are underway to address the problems of production and consumption, it seems too little at a time when we have swiftly moved from climate change to climate crisis. The fashion industry generates 10 percent of global carbon emission, 20 percent of all waste water, and pollutes the oceans with half a million tons of microplastics. So, if big changes do not propel a big impact – it is, simply, greenwashing.</br></br>Given the magnitude of the problem, whatever solutions provided by fast fashion companies, thus far, seem perfunctory. The velocity with which garments are being manufactured, bought and tossed away is horrendous, to say the least. One garbage truck of clothes is either burnt or dumped in landfills every second! So whatever Zara, H&M or other fast fashion brands are doing to rectify the system is too little. Governments and policies need to intervene to limit the greed and speed of overproduction. More investments in R&D for solutions in recycling, alternative fabrics, etc, are crucial. Consumers need to play an important role in disarming the consumerist agenda of globalisation that fuels the ‘marketing need’ for more and more, bigger and bigger. Every human being should know how they choose to spend their hard-earned money really does matter!</br></br>To what extent do you think consumers really care about what happens in the rivers and seas thousands of miles away that are affected by the processes used to create our fashionable clothes?</br></br>Consumers do care about rivers, seas and every aspect of nature, provided they are shown the truth – truth about human beings’ role in the degradation of nature that comes from corporate greed, mindless consumption and governmental apathy. There is not a single human being who doesn’t want their children to grow up in an environment that is nurturing and nourished. Who amongst us wants to live in the filth of pollution?</br></br>The problem is that consumers have been ‘sold’ only one part of the story – the part that says when clothes glitter and automobiles shine and you own them then you have made it. When in fact, the process of making – what irreplaceable natural resources are harnessed to make things, the number of hands that go into making even a simple t-shirt – is excluded from the narrative, the inequalities in the system and the harm perpetrated on our environment will remain invisible. When you are never shown the problem, why would you seek a solution?</br></br>Tell us about your latest project…</br></br>I am a writer. Sadly, I don’t have any big projects to boast of. However, my personal commitment as a storyteller is to always follow the four fundamental principles of authentic storytelling: Product, People, Process, Purpose. If any one of these ‘Ps’ are unfulfilled or unaddressed by a company or brand, I will not write about it. Every media person should pay heed to the power of the pen.</br></br>What advice would you give to young designers starting out now?</br></br>I would request every designer starting out today to read Small is Beautiful, a book written by the hallowed global economist E.F. Shumacher. In this book there is a chapter called ‘Buddhist Economy’ which throws light on the need for mindfulness in business. It is a guide to making one’s daily work – a noble act of humanity. It points to our present-day crisis in the way leaders are raised or made to pillage the earth, as if humans are the only sentient beings in this world. It points to correcting an era that seems so disconnected with our inner and outer divinity – that we have made human-force into labour-force.</br></br>What is the future of fashion?</br></br>The future of fashion is compassionate; how else will we survive? There is no business to be done on a dead planet. So, I feel confident that we will rise to address the challenges of waste, greed and environmental degradation. With a generation of young people born in this era of climate crisis, they will, without any doubt, only choose industry leaders who lead with a ‘monk mentality’, leaders who reinforce the crucible of compassion and conscious consumption. I believe that the future of fashion will have storytellers, producers and creators who will show the interconnectedness of everything around us – the magic of coexistence and biodiversity. They will tell us the story of our t-shirts – made from a seed of life that blossomed into cotton; the same cotton that clothes us also thrives when it grows alongside other diverse plants, on a land rich in soil nutrients. The future of fashion will have great teachers who will tell us that what we ingest into our bodies and what we put on our bodies must both honour the sacredness of nature.</br></br>IG & Twitter: @behavebandanaur the sacredness of nature.

Increased pollution is one of the causes of global warming. Other causes are global warming and forest fires. In Hinduism, there is what is called the Tri Hita Karana, the three signs of happiness as man's relationship with God, man with man, and man with nature.

Paradoxically it may well be true that it is due to Ngendon's influence and artistic leadership that the Batuan painters as a group preserved their own identity and did not become epigenists of any western artist (unlike some painters from the Ubud region). Illustrative is the example told by I Ketut Tombelos (Margaret Mead's field notes), where it is said that Ngendon had a violent disagreement with Bonnet regarding the paternalistic interventions of the latter towards the style and choice subject of Ngendon. Professor Hildred Geertz perceives a strong taboo against any sign of modernisation evident in the work of Batuan painters (op. cit. p. 17). Still she rightly suggests that it was Western modernity and Western forms of power that fascinated and inspired Ngendon (op. cit. p. 19).

  • Mantle Hood  + (Obituary LA Times: Professor, Pioneer in Obituary LA Times: </br>Professor, Pioneer in Studying World’s Music and Cultures</br>(1918-2005)</br>“Mantle Hood was the first scholar to take seriously the study of what was then called nonWestern music, in the 1950s,” said Christopher Waterman, dean of UCLA’s school of arts and architecture and an ethnomusicologist. Hood joined the UCLA faculty in 1956 and created what is now the department of ethnomusicology in 1960. He envisioned a complete approach to the study of his field. He wanted students to learn at least two music traditions, their own and that of a culture new to them. He also urged them to learn to play a native instrument, drums for a student of West African music, for example. Common practice now, it was considered novel when he introduced the idea, which he referred to as bi-musicality. By learning several music traditions, Hood proved that the two could exist in harmony, according to Jacqueline Cogdell DjeDje, chairwoman of UCLA’s ethnomusicology department. (...) "Hood saw it as a way to teach students respect and understanding for “people and cultures different from their own,” DjeDje said. Hood also expected his graduate students to see and hear the music they studied as it was performed in its native setting. “Hood taught that the music comes out of the culture,” said Robert Garfias, professor of anthropology at UC Irvine and one of Hood’s first graduate students at UCLA. “His idea was to study the music as part of the culture.” Hood had been traveling the world from the time he graduated from UCLA in 1951 after earning a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in music. He received his doctorate from the University of Amsterdam, where he wrote a dissertation on Javanese music. After joining the faculty at UCLA, he was granted a Ford fellowship that allowed him to live in Indonesia for two years and study its music. He later studied in India on a Fulbright fellowship. An expert in the music of Java and Bali, Hood played all the instruments in a gamelan, an Indonesian symphony that consists of percussions, winds, strings and other instruments. During gamelan performances with his students, he played the rebab, a type of lute that is the lead instrument in the ensemble. Dozens of his UCLA students went on to teach ethnomusicology. Several of them founded programs at universities, including UC Berkeley. “Hood had a very powerful impact on how ethnomusicology is taught,” said Garfias, who founded a program at the University of Washington, Seattle, before moving to UC Irvine. Hood was born in Springfield, Ill., and moved to Los Angeles with his mother in the 1930s after his father died. He played piano and later learned the saxophone but didn’t expect a career in music. After high school, he worked at various jobs including as a draftsman at McDonnell Douglas. He also played saxophone in jazz bands. He served in the Army during World War II and returned to Los Angeles in 1945. After a false start as an agriculture student at UCLA, he found his true calling. Before he left the university in 1975, he wrote several books about his field, including “The Ethnomusicologist” (1971), which outlined research issues and questions related to what was then considered a new subject of study. An ethnomusicologist, Hood wrote, “is inclined to be highly sensitive to other human beings, to respect their scales of values and their behavior, even if these are not compatible with his own.” Hood moved from Los Angeles to Hawaii in 1973 and began to write self-published novels. “As a young man, he had his heart set on being a writer,” Marlowe Hood said. “As a teenager, he loved pulp fiction.” He set his potboilers in countries he had visited over the years. “Just a Stone’s Throw” is set in Bali. “The Keepers” is set in Hawaii and Japan. In 1980, he relocated to Maryland where he established an ethnomusicology program at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He wrote several more books about ethnomusicology and continued teaching until 1996. (...) He has four sons.</br></br>Amazon: Author of fiction:</br>Mantle Hood is the published author of seminal works in the field of ethnomusicology, study of the musical cultures of the world.

Who would have thought that this small virus could make such a big change in the last 2 years. Because of this virus we were made to stay at home for 2 years, imagine starting from the activities we initially did outside the home such as going to school, working and traveling abroad that had to stop because of this virus, we were made to stay at home for 2 years. Which of course brings a lot of changes in our lives. An example is tourism in Bali. Bali is an island in Indonesia which is often visited by tourists from various countries because it has its own charm. With the stay-at-home policy, of course the economic sector in Bali will decline. During the pandemic, tourism sites and access to Bali were closed. Community activity at tourist attractions in Bali has decreased. This caused Bali's economy to decline. With the closure of various tourist attractions in Bali, many people have become unemployed, this is compounded by policies at home. This has made people confused about finding money. Hundreds of thousands of people lost their jobs and sources of income. In the end, the poverty level in Bali has increased.</br>And without realizing it, now we have entered 2023, where there has been a recovery of various sectors in society which have been stalled for the past 2 years. From here we have to restore Bali's economy. Regional governments need to pay attention to Bali's current economic conditions to revive Bali's economy which has been declining for the past 2 years.</br>The Covid-19 pandemic has hit Bali's economy hard. Bali's economy is very dependent on the tourism sector, so when there are mobility restrictions such as the stay at home policy, the tourism sector is paralyzed. Bali's economy also slumped. Therefore, the government needs to determine a concept for economic development that is not always based on the tourism sector. Bali's economic development must be directed to be more balanced, not only dependent on the tourism sector. Moreover, tourism areas are very vulnerable to changes in external factors. Both from security factors, natural and non-natural disasters that cannot be controlled. So every sector in Bali must also be considered, such as; agricultural, marine and fisheries sectors, manufacturing industry and industries based on Balinese branding culture, MSMEs and cooperatives, creative and digital economy, as well as the tourism sector. So by reviving all these sectors in Bali, it is hoped that Bali's economy can recover after Covid-19. So that Bali will always be prosperous.9. So that Bali will always be prosperous.)

Given that Indonesia still relies on coal and natural gas for power generation, and the mining of raw materials such as lithium, nickel, and cobalt also has environmental consequences if not properly regulated. In addition, the limited lifetime of batteries, around 10-20 years, poses a potential risk of battery waste accumulation in the absence of adequate waste management facilities.</br></br>Therefore, I encourage the government to improve electric vehicle charging infrastructure, address the potential risk of battery waste accumulation, and find alternative solutions to environmentally friendly batteries.

Here I invite everyone to voice their aspirations regarding government in this nation which is still shackled by the shadow of the Oligarchy, and today the Oligarchy has become very free to wreak havoc on power both in the upper elite and in the lower elite, the Oligarchy has a big influence on the nation's future leaders. , oligarchy has a very bad impact on leaders.</br>The problem caused by the existence of Oligarchy in our government system is that power is centralized, Oligarchy only controls leaders who have sovereignty in their own hands.</br>Second, there is widespread corruption in this nation by unscrupulous officials as evidenced by the many reports on social media and various other press media. Oligarchs really need tactical funds to fulfill their own interests.</br>The third is injustice by the government or authorities in the interests of the Oligarchy and society which are not fulfilled according to the Values of Truth that have been determined by law.</br>The fourth is political instability where the government is controlled by oligarchs, social inequality in power is only controlled by oligarchs and worsens social and economic inequality within the scope of society.</br>The six unrepresentative leaders controlled by Oligarchs tend not to represent the interests of all the people, but only a handful of groups called Oligarchs.</br>The seven things that are most rooted in all of these problems are that the gap for legislative candidates who are not touched by the Oligarchs, is very narrow and there is minimal space and budget to channel their vision and mission to the general public in all regions of this country.</br>All the problems that occur as a result of leaders being controlled by oligarchic interests are rooted in two problems that boil down to very serious legislation,</br>Firstly, there is no regulation on budget provisions, space, opportunities and forums for all legislative candidates at the regional level. This causes the public to only take the perspective of leaders who are seeking votes under the pretext of donations which, without them even knowing, are funds given by oligarchs to candidates. We need to understand that this is the forerunner to the birth of Oligarchy at the regional government level, this is because when regional legislative candidates enter the community they need very large "tactical funds" to seek votes in their respective electoral districts. What must also be understood is that This Tactical Fund is what causes the leader's debt of gratitude to the Oligarchs. So that they can be controlled even as if they were Puppets of the Oligarchs, and the shadow of the Oligarchy will continue to exist for the next generation. If we as the current generation are still deaf and mute about what is happening, it's time for us to change the regulatory system so that budget provisions, opportunities, facilities and forums for all legislative candidates are fair and closely monitored by the government, so that these Oligarchs will not have a gap to enter the ideology of the leaders in this country.</br>Secondly, at the central level there is still a Presidential Threshold which is the place for the Oligarchs in this nation to breed. Come, my fellow countrymen and brothers, let's abolish the laws and regulations that cause the Oligarchy in this nation to become increasingly uncontrollable. If the Oligarchy does not have rules that improve their welfare or support their interests, and suppresses the leaders of this nation, then the Oligarchy does not have the opportunity to make the leaders of this nation into their puppets. This is what we must fix together in order to make this nation more advanced. It's time for us to urge the elite of this country so that the legislation that causes the oligarchy in Indonesia can no longer develop or even perish, and if this aspiration is not heard by the elite and is only silenced, it's time for us to take to the streets to voice our aspirations to the government elite and the parliamentary elite. so that this legislation can stop and be replaced with regulations that are more prosperous for the people and not just for the welfare of the Oligarchs in this nation. "In our belief everywhere is Tyranny must fall!" said WIDJI TUKUL. So let's fight together to prevent the detrimental influence of the Oligarchy in the process of selecting leadership candidates and ensure that the elected leadership candidates truly represent the interests of the people and have high integrity. I, we, all of you have the same role in ensuring that the elected leaders are leaders who truly serve the people and not only prioritize the interests of the Oligarchs.</br>Bung Karno once said, "My struggle is easier because it expelled the invaders, but your struggle will be more difficult because it is against your own people."</br>Therefore, let us as future generations be sensitive to the social environment, so that this nation can progress in the international arena by changing the rules that mislead Indonesian politics so that this nation advances, come on...!!! Let's make Bung Karno's words come true, participate in voicing the aspirations of the young generation in this country so that we are sensitive to social problems in our environment, especially regarding the election of leaders. Good leaders produce a good environment and human resources whose quality is guaranteed and equitable and prosperous for all the nation's children. Greetings 0% (Threshold).tion's children.

Because elections are not just about changing leadership, elections are also not just about power. Because elections are our effort to prevent people from getting worse. It is our goal to start a government.</br></br>Ladies and gentlemen, let us strengthen human resources for implementation at all levels. I am sure this has been done and indeed this time I saw from the applause the spirit of optimism.

All levels of the KPU must realize the magnitude and importance of the task of starting our nation's democratic party. A valuable moment to show commitment and integrity, showing dedication and best abilities for the future of our nation and state.</br></br>Thus, I can conclude that let us choose an election that can advance the island of Bali. Let's not vote for elections that are ex-corrupt. Choose elections that can be committed to holding them well so that democracy remains alive and of higher quality, giving birth to a government that has strong legitimacy.</br></br>That's all I can say, sorry if there are wrong words, I thank you.

That's what causes outbreaks of flooding, and mosquitoes breed, causing dengue fever. Evidence that this waste has an impact is that many Balinese people are affected by diseases due to this waste, such as dengue fever, skin infections and other diseases.</br></br>What caused the pile of rubbish was because the landfill in Suwung was hit by a fire outbreak due to Bali's hot climate and the community could not accommodate the rubbish at the Suwung landfill, this caused people to throw rubbish in their respective homes. In this outbreak, I hope that the leaders in Bali 2024 will pay more attention to waste in Bali, so that they can provide a clean and comfortable place for the Balinese people.</br></br>Come on, all Yowana, we have to protect and preserve the Balinese environment, don't throw rubbish in places that are not places to throw rubbish, we have to preserve the 3M steps (Closing water storage places), (Draining the bathtub once every 7 days), (Reusing things used).</br>That's all I can say, more or less I apologize, at the end I say sorry, I close with Parama Shanti, Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.ama Shanti, Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.)

Distinguished guests, allow me, Kadek Khristina Cantika Putri, I am from the SMK N 2 Seririt school, and I am delivering a speech about "Naughty Foreign Tourists".</br></br>Tourism in Bali is growing, so many foreign tourists come to Bali to enjoy their holidays. Tourists who come from various countries. As is known, various news reports show the bad behavior of foreign tourists. For example, when there was a dance performance at a temple in the Ubud, Gianyar area, there was a female tourist from Germany who was not wearing clothes or was naked. There are also tourists who violate traffic in the Bali area, and there are many more mischiefs done by tourists while on holiday in Bali. The Ministry of Tourism and creative economy must issue regulations regarding procedures for traveling in Indonesia, and all relevant government agencies must collaborate more intensively with the Indonesian embassy in the country of origin of tourists regarding the provisions for traveling in Indonesia.</br></br>This naughty behavior is what the government must be wary of, and the government must increase tourist control so that similar incidents do not happen again and Bali tourism continues to run well and many tourists come. That's all I can say. If there are errors, please forgive them and thank you for your attention. Om shanti shanti shanti om.our attention. Om shanti shanti shanti om.)

  • SIRBATA (Sistem Parkir Bawah Tanah) : sebagai Solusi Penataan Lahan Parkir di Pulau Bali  + (Om Swastyastu Dear Sirs and Madams of theOm Swastyastu</br></br>Dear Sirs and Madams of the jury</br>Honorable candidate for DPD RI 2024</br>As well as all the finalist participants who I am proud of</br></br>We would like to express our gratitude to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa for Asung Kertha Wara Nugraha. We can gather in good health at the WIKITHON Public Participation event with the theme Bali Oration.</br></br>Dear audience,</br>On this occasion, allow me to deliver an oration entitled SIRBATA (Underground Parking System) as a Solution for Arranging Parking Lots on the Island of Bali.</br></br>Parking can be interpreted as the activity of placing a vehicle in a certain place for a certain period of time. Parking lots are facilities used to support the parking needs of vehicle users. Parking lots can be divided into two, on-street parking and off-street parking.</br></br>The majority of Indonesian people, especially on the island of Bali, use private vehicles as the main transportation. As time goes by, the use of private vehicles by Balinese people continues to increase. Based on data from the Bali Province Central Statistics Agency, total private vehicle users in 2022 will increase to 4,079,617 for motorbikes and 493,887 for passenger cars. This increase will certainly have an impact on the community's need for arranging parking spaces to accommodate the increasing number of private vehicles.</br></br>As we know, several areas in Bali often find inappropriate use of land as parking spaces, such as roads and sidewalks. This will of course give rise to various problems, namely worsening the road structure and narrowing the traffic area. This is a result of the lack of parking arrangement. Therefore, we propose a system that can be used to overcome parking lot management problems, namely SIRBATA.</br></br>SIRBATA (Underground Parking System) is a solution that can be used regarding the problem of arranging parking lots on the island of Bali. This system utilizes the potential of the underground area as a parking area. SIRBATA also optimizes the parking capacity of a space, because of course the use of underground parking will be more focused on one function without disturbing other functions such as the use of parking spaces on roads and sidewalks. The underground parking system has several advantages compared to using open parking lots, namely, parked vehicles can be protected from hot or rainy weather conditions and of course vehicle safety is better maintained.</br></br>This system may sound difficult to realize because of the costs and various permits required to ensure the safety of its users, but it is the government's duty to help overcome this problem. The government must be able to work on all factors that support the realization of this system. Imagine if this was not realized from now on. As time goes by and the use of private vehicles continues to increase, we will reach a condition where many things will have their function disrupted due to a lack of good parking arrangements. For example, roads will become increasingly congested because many people park on the road, sidewalks that should function as a place to walk are used as parking spaces. Therefore, SIRBATA (Underground Parking System) can be used as a solution for arranging parking lots in Bali.</br></br>Let's work together to create better arrangements for the realization of a safe, comfortable and conducive Bali. Through the cooperation of various parties, we can definitely realize an underground parking system.</br></br>Om Santhi Santhi Santhi Omarking system. Om Santhi Santhi Santhi Om)
  • Toya Pinaka Dasar Kauripan sane Sayan Cemer  + (Om Swastyastu Good morning ladies and genOm Swastyastu</br></br>Good morning ladies and gentlemen. First of all, let us give thanks to The God because of the grace, all of us can gather today to take part in the Wikithon Public Participation Balinese Oration in good health. Today I will explain water problems in Indonesia.</br>If we talk about water for the Indonesian people, it is no longer strange. The Indonesian nation is a maritime country whose territory is surrounded by water. If calculated using numbers, around 75% (seventy five percent) of Indonesia's territory is surrounded by water. Therefore, many people make a living from the waters. Water is the basis of life for all living creatures on earth. Because water has enormous uses for life, many problems arise involving water. Based on a report from the Indonesian Ministry of Environment, it is remembered that the water deficit in Bali has been visible since 1995 at a total of 1.5 billion cubic meters/year. This deficit continued to increase to 7.5 billion cubic meters/year in 2000. Then, in 2015 Bali had a water shortage of 27.6 billion cubic meters/year. Water demand in Bali in 2021 will reach 5951.92 liters per second and it is estimated that in 2025 it will increase to 7991.29 liters per second. Meanwhile, water availability from infrastructure will reach 6939.38 liters per second or a deficit in 2025.</br></br>The problem of the water crisis which is gradually increasing is caused by two factors, namely global warming and human activities. Global warming causes several problems that are the main characteristics of marine problems. Such as flash floods or tidal floods. There is also an increase in sea levels which causes erosion on beaches. Things like that are very important to pay attention to. Increasingly rising waters cause more and more land areas to be covered by sea water, while the human population on earth is increasing day by day. This creates a new problem, namely the transition of land and forests into residential areas. This land transition will cause the high temperature on earth and the narrowing of water catchment areas to increase.</br></br>The second cause is because of humans. Tourism in Bali is like a double-edged sword, on the one hand it really helps encourage the progress of Bali's economy, on the other hand the impact of this causes more and more land to be used for tourism, so that water catchment areas which should be able to be used as water reserves when the summer slowly narrows and eventually disappears. Apart from that, in this era of development, a lot of household waste and industrial waste are simply thrown into nature, causing pollution. Like the phenomenon of the Badung River water turning red in November four years ago, this proves that liquid waste that is disposed of without processing is very dangerous for the environment. If the waste is disposed of on a large scale, the results will immediately look like the Badung River phenomenon. However, what if the waste is disposed of on a small scale, such as household detergent waste? We need to realise that little by little this liquid waste will start to accumulate and in the end it will also trigger pollution in large rivers. You also give attention about rubbish, because many people throw rubbish in inappropriate places, causing environmental damage. Polluted river water will return to the sea. If this problem is not addressed immediately, it is possible that humans will become extinct due to various diseases that arise from dirty water.</br></br>Before the water problem gets worse and causes loss of life, it is hoped that the leaders of Bali in 2024 will immediately prevent this. One way that can be done is training and guidance in creating home wastewater treatment installations so that the water is safe when discharged into the environment. Apart from that, the importance of understanding waste sorting and processing is also needed by the people in Bali. Let's work together to protect our earth for a sustainable future. That's all I can say, sorry if there are any wrong words. </br></br>Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi, Omong words. Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi, Om)

I hope that these problems can be overcome by our future leaders.</br></br>So it can be concluded that,</br>Not only is it stated in the constitution that governs us, but elections also concern people's lives in the future, it is also hoped that prospective leaders will be able to carry out elections fairly and without cheating by engaging in money politics.</br>Let us carry out elections fairly and honestly, because carrying out elections intelligently will create a prosperous society in the future.</br></br>That's all the speech I can deliver, I hope the speech I deliver can be useful.

  • Utamayang Bansos Nenten Medsos  + (Om Swastyastu, Poverty is a social probleOm Swastyastu,</br></br>Poverty is a social problem that needs to be addressed so that all people can get at least a decent living. As written in article 33 paragraph 1 of the 1945 Constitution which states that "the poor and neglected children are cared for by the state". However, in reality there are still many poor people, homeless people and underprivileged people who still live below the poverty line and do not even receive proper assistance. Gianyar Regency is one of the regions that has a relatively high poverty rate of 1.38 percent, while in Bali province the poverty rate is 0.54 percent.</br></br>It has been proven that there are still many beggars begging around shops, some of them even carry small children around to get money. Apart from that, there are small children selling tissue along the main road without proper supervision. Of course, this endangers the order and comfort of society and themselves. So, further treatment is needed regarding the problem of poverty. one of the efforts offered is providing social assistance evenly, social assistance is assistance in the form of money, goods or services to individuals, families, groups and poor communities who are unable and vulnerable to social risks. Even though the provision of social assistance from the government has been implemented, its distribution has not been carried out evenly, as evidenced by the still high level of community poverty in Gianyar district.</br></br>So the step that can be taken is to initiate open inspections when social assistance is distributed from the central government to underprivileged communities so that the assistance provided is not just a symbolic or image attempt by irresponsible individuals. These individuals often use assistance measures as an effort to get attention and praise from the public via social media without thinking about the truth of what is happening on the ground. If the provision of social assistance is uneven, of course there is something that is not right in the process. For example, in December 2023, hundreds of proposals for social assistance grants submitted by the community to the 2023 Gianyar Regency Government had not been disbursed, even though representatives of the community whose social assistance proposals had not been disbursed had visited the Gianyar Regency Government but did not receive clear follow-up action, so the disbursement of the social assistance had not occurred. accomplished.</br></br>By holding open or transparent inspections, it is hoped that the entire process of distributing social assistance will be known to the community clearly, rather than being an empty effort and hope for the community. Apart from that, social institutions can visit communities in remote areas that are far from the reach of information so that they also receive equal and equitable assistance. It is appropriate for institutions with authority in the social sector to take action against problems that occur in society appropriately and must be accountable. Don't just prioritize your image on social media to get attention and votes from the public.</br></br>Om Santih, Santih, Santih Om.the public. Om Santih, Santih, Santih Om.)

However, currently there is a crisis of young farmers in Bali, there are several factors causing it, such as:</br>1). limited access to capital, technology and skilled human resources, thus hampering the ability of young farmers to increase agricultural productivity and increase their income.</br>2). The high level of urbanization and increasing education in rural areas has made many young people prefer to work in the non-agricultural sector, such as industry or services.</br>3). the lack of attractiveness of the farming profession in the eyes of the younger generation, which is considered less prestigious and has the potential to generate low income compared to jobs in other sectors.</br>I hope that from this problem the Balinese leadership candidates who will be elected in 2024 can provide solutions and provide real action and evidence for this problem.</br></br>So let's raise the status of farmers, so that there is no premature extinction, that's all I can say, if there is an error in delivering my oration, I apologize for this. I close by delivering Parama Santhi</br>Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi om.arama Santhi Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi om.)
  • Sentuhan Kritis: Menolak Penyatuan Budaya dan Politik demi kebebasan Identitas  + (OM Swastyastu, Let us reflect together on OM Swastyastu,</br>Let us reflect together on the impact of forced cultural and political unification, especially in the context of the ban on celebrating the Balinese holiday of Pengrupukan during elections. This coercion can create outrage by harming cultural practices that are integral to people's lives. So, to what extent should we give up cultural celebrations in favor of often questionable political interests? Governments, especially local governments, should be smarter in understanding and protecting cultural heritage as a community right. Only with wiser policies, considering cultural values, can we create true harmony and genuine peace.</br></br>The prohibition of historic culture is not simply a religious or cultural matter, but involves the right of communities to practice their traditions without intrusive interference. I strongly emphasize the urgency of incisive dialogue, unequivocal respect, and a policy full of sarcasm to respond to issues like the Pengrupukan ban. Only through this approach can harmony between culture and politics be truly realized. The government should not only listen, but also act swiftly for the survival of such a precious cultural heritage. </br></br>Whoever is elected, let them not only drown in the pleasure of being in power, but also introspect that cultural diversity is not a toy that can be trampled on. A wise leader is not just good at talking, but is able to defend the cultural wealth of the homeland, not destroy it for the sake of narcissistic personal ambition. So, let's choose leaders who not only know how to play politics, but also understand the art of maintaining harmony in diversity.</br></br>Thank you, OM Santhi, Santhi, Santhi OM. Thank you, OM Santhi, Santhi, Santhi OM.)
  • Hak Masyarakat Adat Baik Kemajuan dan Kelestarian Adat Terjaga  + (Om Swastyastu, My deepest respect to all tOm Swastyastu,</br>My deepest respect to all the judges.</br>My respects to the BASAbali Wiki team</br>My respects to all participants of the Public Participation Wikithon,</br>Allow me to speak a little on the issue of indigenous peoples’ rights. My name is I Komang Sapa. I am from the lava world of Karangasem, I live on the slopes of Bali’s most majestic Mount Agung, in Jungutan Village.</br></br>As Indonesian citizens, indigenous peoples should have equal rights in terms of land ownership, economic activities, as well as social rights. However, the Job Creation Law (Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja), especially the article on investment ownership as a step to opening new jobs, could backfire on the rights of indigenous peoples or people living in villages.</br></br>The Indigenous Peoples Alliance of the Archipelago (AMAN) believes that the Job Creation Law (Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja) can pave the way for investors who will run their businesses and process natural resources. However, it will be a problem that can make the people in the village lose. Because people in indigenous villages still make a living through customary land, forests, rice fields and others. Not only is it used as a place to make a living, there are also those who live, make pindik (a local dish), or use the land as a place to build a house. What’s more, since the process of creating the Job Creation Bill started, indigenous peoples have not been included in discussions, even though the people in the village are the most affected.</br></br>Well, people, because there are different interests here, between indigenous peoples and investors, the government faces a dilemma, when passing this Indigenous Peoples Bill. For example, in the case of the Natural Tourism Park (TWA) in Batur, Kintamani, Bangli, there are still parties from the indigenous community or in the village who feel disadvantaged by the arrival of investors.</br></br>Ladies and gentlemen, why do we have to speak out about this situation? It is because, as the next generation of the nation, we must participate in preserving the culture, cultural values that have long been the identity of the nation. Especially in the current times, it is very important that we participate and agree in preserving traditional values. This is not just about preserving our traditional heritage, but also about educating our character and morals as human beings who are easily exposed to foreign influences. Also, we must strengthen adat (indigenous laws), recognize the rights of these indigenous peoples, protect, respect and fulfill their human rights.</br></br>My hope is for prospective leaders to solve this problem quickly through policies that really make the Indigenous Village sustainable even though there are investors who come in to participate in developing the area so that it becomes stronger. Likewise, the government must come to the Indigenous Village, discuss with the community there before issuing permits, let alone policies.</br></br>Okay, that’s all I can say to all of you. If there are any mistakes in my speech, please forgive me. In closing, I end with parama santhi.</br></br>Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.ma santhi. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.)
  • Pikobet Peplajahan ring Sisya Tuli  + (OM Swastyastu, OM Ano Bhadrah Kratavo VyānOM Swastyastu,</br>OM Ano Bhadrah Kratavo Vyāntu Vicva Taḥ’</br>“May auspicious thoughts come from all directions.”</br></br>Dear future leaders of Bali.</br>Education is the initial provision for achieving goals. Every citizen has the right to education in accordance with Article 31 Paragraph 1 of the 1945 Constitution. The citizens in question are everyone without exception, men, women, children, adults, the elderly, and people with disabilities. Obtaining the right to education is the responsibility of all parties. Parents are obliged to provide basic education to their children. The implementation of education is carried out by the government through the Education Office, both general, special and inclusive education. Now the question is, has the government provided proper access for people with disabilities? The answer is no, brothers and sisters.</br></br>I invite you to focus on deafness. There are so many obstacles for deaf people when continuing their education in higher education because access is not properly provided. Campuses accept deaf students, but do not provide appropriate access, so they cannot study properly. Another contributing factor is the use of SIBI (Indonesian Sign Language System) in primary and secondary education. SIBI is confusing for deaf learners and not deaf culture. SIBI is made by hearing people who use Indonesian vocabulary patterns so that deaf people cannot understand the context discussed. According to Ade Wirawan, a deaf activist in Bali, the forced use of SIBI results in Language Deprivation which has an impact on the cognitive development of deaf children and students.</br></br>The solution to the forced use of SIBI is to use Bisindo (Indonesian Sign Language) which is a natural language that emerges and develops in the deaf community. Bisindo is a representation of deaf culture so it is strongly fought for by deaf communities, organizations and activists. Regarding the use of Bisindo in educational units, the government has played a role in deaf education with the issuance of Government Regulation No. 13 of 2020 concerning proper accommodation for students with disabilities, especially for deaf or hard of hearing disabilities listed in Article 15. Furthermore there is a Circular Letter from the Directorate General of Community Education and Special Education on September 23, 2021, regarding the widespread use of Bisindo in special education units for the deaf or deaf community in the wider community. PP No. 13/2020 and the above circular are in accordance with Law No. 8/2016 on disability. However, the implementation has not gone according to its purpose. Many have not provided proper accommodation for students or teachers who master sign language in a complex manner.</br></br>Things that Bali’s future leaders should realize for equal access to education for deaf students are:</br>1. Adjust the curriculum according to the needs of the deaf.</br>2. Provide an introduction to deaf disabilities to teachers at the elementary school level to serve as a guideline in order to provide teaching in an appropriate manner. </br>3. Provide training to improve complex sign language skills and linguistic understanding of sign language for teachers.</br></br>Bali’s future leaders, let’s work together to address these barriers to education, and fix them immediately. Otherwise, the chain of problems will continue to take root and create more complex barriers. Elections are the perfect venue to fix this long-standing problem.</br> </br>Are you the right person to lead Bali? Are you able to approach the deaf community? Can you fulfill the demands of the deaf community?</br></br>OM Shantih Santhi Santhi OMaf community? OM Shantih Santhi Santhi OM)
  • Sapunapi utsaha pamerintah antuk nepasin pikobet macet ring Bali?  + (Om Swastyastu, Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb., PeOm Swastyastu, Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb., Peace be upon us all, Shalom, Namo Buddhaya, Greetings of Virtue, Thank you to all readers who will read this speech of mine. I, Cellin Aulia Nur Shendi Ansyah, a second year student of SMA Negeri 2 Abiansemal, will give a speech about the steps the government must take to overcome the congestion problem in Bali.</br></br>The problem of congestion is a condition that often occurs in various places, especially in Bali. This can cause public discomfort. But it is also undeniable that this congestion can also have an impact on something else such as the economy and the environment.</br></br>Traffic jams that occur in several places cause wasted time of road users because in traffic jams it takes several minutes or even hours to be able to cross the road to their destination. Not only that, if a businessman experiences congestion problems on his way to his client, it is possible for conflicts between the businessman and clients who want to cooperate. Thus, the economic impact is also affected by the problem of traffic jams. Even if using public transportation will also cause problems in time efficiency because, public transportation will stop at many stops (Halte) so it is considered by some people that the use of public transportation will only slow down the journey to the destination.</br></br>The second environment, congestion if it occurs for a long period of time will cause pollution pollution in the air due to vehicle fumes used by motorists, both motorbikes and cars. This is because vehicle exhaust fumes emit gases that are harmful to the environment, namely in the form of CO gas or carbon monoxide which is one of several types of greenhouse gases. This gas can not only pollute the environment and respiratory organs of humans or living things but can deplete the ozone layer in the earth's atmosphere.</br></br>To overcome congestion we must actively participate in maintaining the impact of congestion by helping government programs. However, the prohibition on people to buy vehicles is not a solution for people to use public transportation, because in the past Bali had had Trans Sarbagita public transportation, then now Trans Metro Dewata and some services that are not in such a form. However, public transportation did not go well as expected. So, the government should let people buy as many vehicles as possible, but only one is used. Thus the government still gets vehicle taxes. So, it is actually not a problem for people to buy many vehicles but their use must be regulated. In addition, the government must also plan sustainable programs for smart urban planning and develop alternative routes and widening roads as an effort to overcome congestion problems so that traffic flow is more efficient. In addition, the government has the right to build other public transportation systems such as LRT (Light Rail Transit) as an effort to solve congestion problems.</br></br>This important way should also not be forgotten is to provide socialization to the community about the importance of minimizing the use of private transportation because using it can have a big impact on other drivers, the environment, and even globally. The public, allowed to have many vehicles, it's just that in their use they must follow the rules, which is enough for one to be used.</br></br>Then, what about foreign tourists who are traveling to Bali? The government is expected to plan sustainable and efficient programs so that the opportunity to get to know the island of Bali is greater if infrastructure development, completion of LRT construction and alternative routes are also the best solution so that foreign tourists can easily access routes to get to their tourist destinations.</br></br>In conclusion, the most appropriate way to overcome congestion problems requires encouragement from various engagements ranging from government initiatives, community participation, and responsibility and awareness from each individual. This is a big challenge for the entire community, especially in Bali, so efforts that can be made to produce sustainable solutions are long-term we must work hand in hand in a collaborative way. Let's show cooperation to build solutions to the problems faced by all of us in the form of traffic jams, and so that we all get comfort while enjoying a sustainable and harmonious lifestyle.</br></br>Well, to the readers I thank you for reading my speech. I apologize if there is a mistake that is not pleasing to the heart of the speech I gave about the steps that must be taken by the government to overcome the congestion problem in Bali. I cover with paramasantih</br>Om Santih, Santih, Santih Om, Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb., Peace be upon us all, Shalom, Namo Buddhaya, Greetings of Virtue.halom, Namo Buddhaya, Greetings of Virtue.)
  • PARISOLAH WISATAWAN  + (Om Swastyastu, Best wishes for continued sOm Swastyastu, Best wishes for continued success,</br>Respected judges.</br>Dear participants,</br>And beloved attendees.</br></br>Before I offer my greetings, let’s express our gratitude to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa, for His grace which allows us to gather at this great event, “Wikithon Public Participation Bali speaks”.</br></br>Ladies and gentlemen, you probably know that Bali is called Indonesia’s world-famous tourist destination. Bali has established Cultural Tourism as the most important attraction for tourists, which is why many foreign tourists and local tourists travel to Bali. However, we should remember, the land of Bali is a sacred land. There are rules, principles, and regulations in each region that should be implemented, maintained, and preserved so that the island of Bali can remain strong, sturdy, and sustainable. The rules are not only implemented by the Balinese people but all parties in the tourism sector and also the people who live in Bali as well as domestic and foreign tourists. Tourists should also abide by the rules. They should not violate them, let alone behave violently or arbitrarily. If there are tourists like this, it will definitely make things bad for the life of this Balinese earth.</br></br>In the current state of Bali’s tourism sector, which has just risen from the impact of Covid-19, there are many behaviors of tourists from abroad that are not in accordance with the rules in Bali. For example, the case of tourists who damaged the Goa Raja Temple, Besakih. Tourists from South Korea damaged facilities in the temple area, such as tedung (umbrella), sangku (holy water container), jug, donation box, and cloth mounted on the monument. This made the temple area polluted. Then the Goa Raja Temple management carried out a simple prayascita (cleaning) ceremony so that the temple area could return to purity. The behavior of tourists causes a big loss for the surrounding community and indigenous people. It has definitely polluted the Balinese customs and traditions. There are many other examples, such as tourists who do not wear appropriate clothes during Pendet Dance performances at Saraswati Temple and Gunung Batur Temple, tourists who take pictures naked at Taru Kayu Putih Suci in Tabanan Regency, tourists who sit on the Teratai Bang Temple monument, tourists who meditate naked in Denpasar. Apart from not wearing clothes at temples, there are also tourists displaying the same behavior in public places, for example in South Kuta.</br></br>Based on the above-mentioned problems, the Balinese government has actually made a circular letter of the Governor of Bali Number 04 of 2023 concerning the new order for foreign tourists who visit Bali. The stipulation of regulations on tourist behavior is in accordance with Balinese cultural norms but the implementation has not been maximized. There are still many tourists who behave not according to Balinese customs, destroying the principles that have been inherited on this Balinese earth. This makes me hope that the leaders who will be elected in 2024 will be firm with the rules that have been issued, truly loyal to protecting Bali from the bad influence of globalization and all people, especially protecting Balinese youth, so that they are not exposed to bad influences. In addition, Bali leaders should require tourists to be accompanied by a guide. The goal is that there is no more wrong and deviant tourist behavior. Tourists do bad behavior because no one is watching. In order to be implemented, the 2024 leader can provide guide services under the auspices of the government that can be used by tourists.</br></br>Come on, brothers and sisters, take care of this Balinese earth, take care of the tourists who come to Bali, so that Balinese customs and culture as an ancestral heritage are not polluted and abused. Well, that’s all I can say. If there are any mistakes in my speech, I ask for forgiveness. I close with paramasanthi. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.ramasanthi. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.)
  • Pikobet Kawigunan lahan ring Bali  + (Om Swastyastu, honorable judges of the WikOm Swastyastu, honorable judges of the Wikithon Public Participation Oration, and all Oration participants that I am proud of. I, Putu Bayu Yudha Oka Pratama from SMAN 2 Sukawati will deliver an oration entitled "Pikenoh lahan ring bali ngawit masa ke masa" which discusses an issue that has long been a problem in Bali. Bali is known as a global tourism destination, but behind that, there are serious challenges related to the erosion of green land.</br>Land change in Bali from time to time is certainly a very important issue and must be addressed immediately, seeing the state of the increasingly eroded land. According to an article in Neliti, land use change in Bali is very important to note because land use change has a major impact on the physical and social environment. In this case, satellite imagery and GIS data were used to determine land use change in Bali. The results showed that land use has changed drastically between 2003 and 2008. Settlements and irrigated rice fields are where the most extensive land use change occurred, at 2,553 hectares. While salt land use did not change at all. This change has led to the development of villas, hotels, shopping centers that are irregular and haphazard.</br>Irregular and indiscriminate land use change can cause negative impacts on the environment, Balinese people, and even Bali Tourism. Some of the negative impacts that can occur are environmental damage and loss of natural habitat for flora and fauna. In addition, irregular land use change can also cause flooding and landslides. And the most problematic, namely the impact on Bali Tourism. Where, foreign tourists have no interest in coming because it is too full of buildings and little green land left.</br>To overcome these problems, the future leaders of Bali 2024 must take appropriate and effective action. One solution that can be done is to conduct strict supervision of land use changes in Bali. There must be clear procedures and permits related to land use change. In addition, Bali 2024 leaders should also introduce programs that aim to promote sustainable and environmentally friendly land use. These programs could include the development of organic farming, the use of renewable energy, and waste reduction.</br>Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, that's all I have to say about land use issues in Bali. I hope that this oration can be useful so as to realize that the Government and the Community must work together to deal with this problem, Finally, I Bayu say Parama Santhi. Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi, Om.ama Santhi. Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi, Om.)

Currently a number of bad tourists, foreigners and ofc residents in bali are breaking the rules, even though it is known as a beautiful tourist destination, Bali has rules and sanctions that can still be bad for the environment, Balinese and foreigners. Examples are corruption, land investment by outsiders, tourists who do not respect Balinese culture, there are no proper procedures for disposing of rubbish in Bali, and there are no sanctions for people who violate it.</br></br> I hope that those of you who will serve as leaders can develop and handle these problems well. Let's all provide a better opportunity for Bali's future.de a better opportunity for Bali's future.)

These natural resources attract tourists to come to Bali. The island of Bali is well known abroad. The island of Bali which is growing in tourism is what causes many investors to build buildings in Bali. Different from before, the island of Bali has many rice fields and plants, as well as clear water that makes the mind drift away. In the past, Balinese people easily got agricultural products such as chilies, vegetables and others.</br></br>After the rice fields in Bali were converted into buildings, little land was used as a place to grow these plants. This is because the prices of our basic necessities in Bali are increasing. If we remember, we should be in Bali who bring in a lot of guests, making Bali Island an island that has high regional income. However, we have all felt that now the prices of basic necessities in Bali are increasing. Natural resources in Bali are increasingly scarce, rice fields in Bali are increasingly depleted. Who can be blamed if it's like this? Not just natural resources, but technological developments that increasingly want to make us spoiled or dependent on technology. Different from before, Balinese people at home each have rice fields that can be used to grow plants that are useful for the Balinese people, such as chili plants, banana trees, tomato plants, vegetables and others. Now, are there any of you who plant these plants? Does anyone still have rice fields?</br></br>Now in Bali, many people have houses that have been influenced by foreign culture. This is because few have rice fields or plants that can be used for basic needs or coral reefs. If it is related to the increase in prices of basic commodities in Bali, it is appropriate that the Kitri coral can restore the fulfillment of our basic needs in our respective homes. If every yard or yard in Bali had coral reefs, basic prices on the market would definitely not increase because there would be no shortage of basic necessities. This Kitri coral can be included in traditional village regulations so that the community can all develop Kitri coral in their own homes and in traditional villages make sekeha which are taken by each family head in each coral to get information about the Kitri coral and Kitri coral in their respective homes. Each can be sold at the Pekraman village level. Immediately, it became a Ratribraskita movement which means Digital Based Kitri Coral, which has the aim of preserving Kitri Coral even when they become extinct and bringing greenery to the household.</br>Hopefully this RATRIBRASKITA program can provide good benefits.</br>I apologize if there are any shortcomings, I will close with Parama Santih.</br></br>Om Santih, Santih, Santih Omrama Santih.

  • Pariwisata Bali Metangi Antuk Sport Tourism  + (Om Swastyastu, the Covid-19 pandemic has hOm Swastyastu, the Covid-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on Indonesia. Not only in the health sector, but also in the economic sector. The island of Bali is no exception, all of which are very dependent on tourism so that the Balinese economy has slumped during the pandemic. The Government has implemented the policy of Enforcement of Community Activity Restrictions or PPKM (Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat) to limit the spread of the Covid-19 virus. However, this strategy has caused negative impacts such as the suspension of tourism. Likewise, tourism workers have been fired. </br></br>The government and related parties must seek procedures to stimulate Bali tourism. Examples include the strict application of health protocols to the community, as well as the application of CHSE (Cleanliness, Health, Safety, and Environment Sustainability) to tourist destinations or other means of supporting tourist destinations. The number of Balinese people who have received the first dose of Covid-19 vaccine is around 99% and the second dose is around 90%. With this preparation, Bali tourism is ready to rise again. </br></br>What is needed is public information that Bali is ready to receive domestic and international tourists. Sports Tourism is one of the strategies that should be implemented. Even though it's a new idea, sports tourism has great potential to generate tourism in Bali. Sports events are of great interest both nationally and internationally. This can be seen from the major sporting events held in Bali such as the 2021 BWF World Tour, BRI Liga 1, U-20 World Cup, and so on. The Government can provide support to improve infrastructure and facilities relating to sports so that Bali's potential can be realized and Bali's tourism and Bali's economy can be revived.

On this occasion, I will deliver an oration on "Tourist Ethics in Sacred Places in Bali".</br>Bali Island is the most popular tourist destination in Indonesia. Bali has very diverse tourist attractions, both natural tourism, cultural tourism and marine tourism. Bali and tourism cannot be separated. A tourist attraction that is no less interesting is the culture of the people. The life of the Balinese people is very closely related to the Hindu religion so that every religious ceremony is a very unique object. Temples are interesting places of worship for Hindus spread throughout Bali. Therefore, Bali also has the nickname Thousand Temple Island.</br>However, the beauty of tourist attractions in Bali is still often threatened, one of which is sacred places. The presence of foreign tourists visiting sacred places still has a negative influence on the island of Bali. The case that we often hear is that tourist etiquette is still lacking, both in terms of clothing and the morals of the tourists themselves. As happened at Pura Dalem Prajapati Banjar Dadakan, Kelaci Kelod Traditional Village, Abiantuwung Village, Kediri District, Tabanan Regency. The tourist climbed a sacred tree, it is suspected that the tourist did not know that this place was a sacred place.</br>This often happens, the causes are freedom of association and clothing in many tourist attractions, the need for commercial content and, ignorance of foreign tourists about sacred places in Bali. With this, we hope that Bali's leaders in 2024 will tighten the existing regulations in this place with efforts that can be taken, namely,</br>1. Form a community for tighter security at this place.</br>2. The management should provide information about the meaning of signs and holy places.</br>3.

This problem is one of the problems that exist in Bali, and must be handled by the future leaders of Bali.</br>We all know that rivers are natural resources that are very important for human life. Rivers provide water for drinking, irrigation and other daily needs. However, unfortunately, our rivers are currently facing a serious problem, namely rubbish pollution.</br>One of the main reasons why there is a lot of rubbish in rivers is the lack of public awareness about the importance of disposing of rubbish in the right place. Many people still throw rubbish carelessly, including into rivers.</br>Garbage thrown into rivers can cause various environmental and health problems. This rubbish can clog river flows, causing flooding. Garbage can also pollute river water, endangering human and animal health. Apart from that, rubbish in rivers can damage river ecosystems and reduce natural beauty.</br>To overcome the problem of waste in rivers, cooperation from all parties is needed, including the government, society and the business world.</br>The government must provide adequate facilities and infrastructure for waste management, such as rubbish bins, waste transport fleets and final waste disposal sites.</br>People must have awareness not to throw rubbish carelessly, especially into rivers.</br>The business world must also play a role in reducing the use of materials that are difficult to decompose, as well as supporting sustainable waste management programs.</br>I hope that the future leader of Bali who is elected will have a commitment to solving the problem of rubbish in rivers.</br>The prospective leader must have a clear vision and mission in waste management, as well as a work program that is measurable and can be implemented.</br>I am sure, if we all work together, we can solve the problem of rubbish in rivers and make Bali a clean, beautiful and healthy island.</br>Distinguished guests, that's all I can say. If there is an error I apologize. I close with Parama Santih.</br>Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.ama Santih. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.)
  • Ngamolihang Kasejahteraan Sosial ring Bali  + (Om Swastyastu. Before I present this oratiOm Swastyastu. Before I present this oration, let us all give thanks to Ida Sang Hyang Parama Kawi, because thanks to His grace I, Ni Kadek Diah Ayu Paramitha from SMA Negeri 1 Kerambitan, can present the oration text entitled “Ngamolihang Kasejahteraan Sosial ring Bali”.</br></br>A leader is a person who influences others in order to carry out a common goal. Therefore, leaders have the obligation to complete and implement all the aspirations of the community and have a responsibility for community welfare and social welfare. Talking about social welfare, it can be seen from various aspects such as economy, education, health, and socio-culture. Today, I will discuss social welfare in Bali from the economic point of view. One of the economic problems in Bali is the economic gap, which is very important to find a solution to. The economic gap is closely related to the unbalanced infrastructure development in each region. This can lead to urbanization - people living in villages are displaced to cities - which then makes economic growth in Bali unbalanced. Poverty and unemployment rates are also important to note, because if you look at the distribution of subsidies for the lower middle class, it has not been well targeted, so the poverty rate has not shown a significant reduction in the number of people living in poverty.</br></br>We know that Bali is very strong because of tourism which until now has benefited as much as 60% of Bali’s economic structure. In my opinion, providing tourism sites like this, especially in villages can be one of the solutions to relieve the economic gap in Bali, such as the Tenganan Tourism Village program, Jatiluwih, Terunyan, and others. </br></br>However, we cannot guess what will happen in the future, such as the Covid-19 outbreak in 2020 which causes an economy decline, especially in Bali because it still relies on tourism. However, if you look again, Bali actually has other potentials such as MSMEs. These MSMEs should be considered so that they remain strong. Bali’s leaders have a role to help MSMEs in Bali so that they can improve Bali’s economic development, such as providing facilities and assistance in the form education, socialization, subsidies and rules that can encourage the existence of MSMEs and provide legal protection for MSME actors. Not only these MSMEs can help the Balinese economy. Social welfare is not just the responsibility of leaders, but the responsibility of the entire community. However, the role of leaders here is very important to lead the community to get social welfare, the leader should use resources as well as possible, and also build good buildings in order to provide people’s welfare.</br></br>This is the text of the oration that I can convey. If any of my words are not pleasing to you, I apologize profusely, finally I close with paramasantih, Om Santih Santih Santih Om. paramasantih, Om Santih Santih Santih Om.)
  • Upaya Mangda SDM ring Bali nenten Fokus ring Sektor Pariwisata kemanten  + (Om Swastyastu. Dear readers, and participaOm Swastyastu. Dear readers, and participants of the competition that we are proud of.</br> </br>Praise and gratitude are due to God Almighty because by His grace we were given the opportunity to be participants in the Wikithon Basa Bali competition with the theme "Election 2024: What are the most urgent issues to be handled by Bali's prospective leaders?" </br></br>Tourism has long been the most popular sector for Balinese people. Natural resources and customs are two of the factors that make tourists, both from within and outside the country, interested in visiting the island of the Gods, Bali. However, reflecting from 3 years ago where most of the people's economy in Bali was hampered due to a prolonged pandemic. It can be seen from one of the tourist attractions in Bali, namely "Taman Nusa", where this tourist spot focuses on preserving customs and culture in Indonesia, such as traditional houses, dances and traditional weapons, ended up 'closing' or in other words 'going bankrupt'. </br></br>Now that the economy in Bali has started to grow and improve, we can take a lesson to not depend on one sector, especially the dynamic Tourism sector. Our question now is, how can we make the human resources in Bali not only focus on the tourism sector? This problem starts with the stereotype that working in the tourism sector can raise the family's status. Although in reality this is true, given the dynamic nature of the tourism sector, it is unlikely that the sector will always promise a good economy. Whereas, on the other hand, agriculture, health, trade, construction and so on have ample job opportunities but with less promising income, so in the opinion of young people now. We ask for solutions from the government regarding this sector that 'actually' has ample job opportunities with less promising income.</br></br>Finally, let's all work together to protect and do our best for Bali's economy in the future. That's all we can say, if there are shortcomings we apologize and for your attention we say Parama Santih. Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi Om.rama Santih. Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi Om.)
  • BALI RESIK, TAN KATIBEN GUNUNG LELUU  + (Om Swastyastu. Dear the juries and all reaOm Swastyastu. Dear the juries and all readers. From the theme of this oration, the urgent topic we raised was the Bali government's steps in dealing with the surge in waste on the Island of the Gods, which can cause various problems in life. For this reason, the title of our oration is “Clean and Spotless Bali, Without Mountains of Rubbish” or "Bali Resik, Bali Tan Katiben Gunung Leluu". </br></br>Bali Island is nicknamed the world's tourism paradise. However, behind that sentence, this island is facing an urgent crisis due to piles of rubbish. It has become increasingly complicated and more transparent after fires recently occurred at several final disposal sites (TPA) in Bali. How would we feel if every day we had to live amidst piles of rubbish, followed by burning pollution like this? As a foreign tourism area, the urgency of this problem must be addressed immediately because it can cause other issues that could be detrimental to the Balinese people. Therefore, the presence of the government as a pioneer leading society is vital in responding to this urgency. </br></br>Prospective leaders should be responsible for developing steps to overcome this emergency. We need significant investment in waste management infrastructure with modern, environmentally friendly technology. We also need policy designs encouraging active community participation in waste sorting and recycling programs. We encourage prospective Balinese leaders to work with various parties, including the private sector and environmental organizations, to create collaborative solutions to this waste problem. By integrating ideas and resources from multiple sectors, we can achieve more significant progress in maintaining Bali's sustainability. This is a call for all of us to act together and ensure that Bali remains beautiful and sustainable for future generations. </br></br>Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, prospective leaders of Bali in the 2024 elections, for your attention and commitment to facing this urgent challenge. Together, let's create a clean, green, and sustainable Bali without mountains of rubbish. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.of rubbish. Om Santih, Santih, Santih, Om.)

It's been two years of this pandemic situation. some regulations have been implemented. but not getting the desired result, for the purpose to be achieved. I am not a tourism actor, let alone one who knows about the state of tourism, but I feel what the impact of this covid-19 pandemic is. I wrote this article from the input of my friends and relatives who work in the tourism sector. When viewed from the development of tourism in the past, generally 100% of guests traveled to Bali, now only 30% of foreign guests come to Bali, another 70% are mostly local guests, even though the airport has opened domestic flights and international flights. But still few foreign guests come to Bali for sightseeing, even though most of the guests are local. Now, as now, there has been an increase from before, unlike in the past, hotels, villas, resorts, restaurants, tourist attractions were mostly closed. We all know that Bali is the biggest foreign exchange earner in Indonesia. If Bali tourism is paralyzed, let alone to death, what can you do, what causes it? Most of the people work in the tourism sector. Health-based tourism must be applied to be used as a solution/urgent situation in the current state of tourism and in the future. Many foreign guests don't want to go to Bali because the quarantine period is too long and the rapid production of antigen tests and PCR swabs is too expensive. The hope of the people is that the government is right to reduce the quarantine period which used to be 14 days, to only 7 days, what is the reason?, So that the quarantine period for guests is not too long, just like a leech habit (too long) staying or traveling to Bali, so as not to too long quarantine before traveling quickly lost the desire of guests to travel. For example, a guest who came to Bali only two weeks ago had a 14-day quarantine period, cutting the guest's vacation time by 14 days after the quarantine period was used up, the guest lost his time to Bali or the quarantine period was used up only. Also accompanied by promotion and maintaining Balinese culture so that traditional tourism attractions such as the ogoh-ogoh parade can be used as an inducement for foreign guests to visit Bali.

  • NARYA ABHIMATA  + (Photographer Narya Abhimata – who shot ourPhotographer Narya Abhimata – who shot our cover and fashion spreads this issue – is doing exactly what he wants to do, thank you very much. Interview Nigel Simmonds.</br></br>Narya, we’re all interested in how you grew up and how you became a visual artist. What’s the story?</br></br>I was pretty much given the freedom of expressing my artistic side from a very young age. My parents fully supported that by getting me drawing books, crayons and paints so that I would stop using their bedroom walls as my canvas. I’ve always been that weird, artistic kid … I’ve never really been into sports or super-masculine things. I played with both my Ninja Turtle figurines and my sister’s American Girls dolls. I loved custom building things with my Lego … I’ve built theme parks with fully working cable cars that take my little Lego people up and down a steep hill. I love playing video games that need me to manage cities and zoos. I guess I like things that need problem-solving skills, which contributes fully to what I am doing now. As a visual artist I have to problem-solve and to constantly think of creative ways to achieve things.</br></br>When you were growing up, is this the life that you envisaged for yourself?</br></br>Truthfully I cannot imagine myself doing anything other than what I’m doing now. Me as an accountant? Never in a million years.</br></br>How did you find being an Indonesian in Sydney, when you studied there? Or London?</br></br>I find going or living overseas very eye-opening and inspiring. For me, Indonesia is more restrictive when it comes to creative expression and freedom, especially in Jakarta. When I lived in Sydney and London, my creative mojo was constantly brewing. Ideas can be found anywhere, museums, galleries are abundant. People are strange, beautiful and unapologetic. The energy is powerful and is constantly around and it makes you want to create things every single day.</br></br>Did you spend much time as an assistant, or intern? Did you learn your trade from someone awesome, and are you still in touch with them?</br></br>I have never assisted, I just went out there with courage and a bit of delusion, ha ha ha! But I have interned once as a graphic designer at an agency back in Jakarta in 2008, after that I’ve been taking on the world solo. However, I believe that I am always a student, so I don’t think I will stop learning . . . it’s easier to do this nowadays since everything is basically online; seminars, tutorials . . . you name it and the internet has it. I also learn from my friends, fellow photographers and artists that I met here as well as overseas . . . and yes I am still in touch with some of them.</br></br>You seem so well educated internationally, how has that journey been for you?</br></br>It has been very special and I feel super grateful to have been able to do that. My view of the world as well as how I creatively approach my work were shaped during those years overseas. I learned, struggled and achieved a lot, and I wouldn’t be who I am today without those experiences.</br></br>What’s most important to you today about visual imagery, and how you deal with it?</br></br>Character, point of view and the ability to tell a story are very important to create any kind of visual. These are the three things I’m constantly improving with my own work.</br></br>What equipment do you use?</br></br>Canon 5DmkIVfor stills and Sony A7SIII / FX3 / FX60 / Arri Alexa for videos (also depends on client’s budget!)</br></br>Who is the best client you ever worked for (apart from The Yak he he)?</br></br>Edward Hutabarat.</br></br>What does fashion mean to you?</br></br>Fashion is a lifestyle choice. Most people think that fashion is just clothes, but almost all your lifestyle choices count as fashion: the way you dress, the food you eat, the devices you use daily . . . all the desirable things you choose to own and use to present yourself to the world as an individual . . . those things count as fashion!</br></br>How do you stay consistently fresh with your ideas and concepts in photography and videography?</br></br>I try to get outside my comfort zone. I work in fashion most of the time so I try to find inspiration and references outside of that world. Also, never stop learning new ways to give your work variety. Experiment with things you never tried before!</br></br>What’s the most frequent phrase you hear from clients that pisses you off?</br></br>‘Could you make (whatever I’m making for them) pop more?’</br></br>How can clients be better at being clients?</br></br>Knowing what they want is always a good start.</br></br>Are you threatened at all about the potential of Artificial Intelligence?</br></br>Not at all. No amount of technological advances can replace an artist’s soul.</br></br>What makes you happy?</br></br>Good food. Good company. DOGS!</br></br>If you were to die tomorrow, what would be the last thought in your head?</br></br>‘What’s for dinner?’</br></br>Where can we meet you, or see your work?</br></br>I am now residing in Bali, mostly staying at home with my two French bulldogs ordering take outs from cheap eateries around Kerobokan.

The sector contributed $20 billion in foreign exchange revenue and employed about 13 million people or around 10 percent of the total workforce. The COVID-19 pandemic hit the industry hard. In the first half of 2020, arrivals to Indonesia were off by almost 60 percent, the industry is expected to lose $10 billion in foreign exchange revenues for the full year, and more than 90 percent of the workers in the sector have been furloughed indefinitely without pay.</br></br>Even when the world begins recovering from the pandemic, it remains unclear how quickly travelers will be willing to jump onto planes and visit the beaches of Bali, the forests of Borneo, and other popular destinations. In addition, countries dependent on tourism will all be competing for smaller groups of travelers for a while. Recovery in the tourist sector is likely to lag behind that of others.</br></br>Looking forward, we expect travelers will, at least initially, avoid in-person contact in booking, traveling, and even staying at their destinations. They will prefer shorter trips to outdoor destinations and flexible cancellation policies. In addition, those staying at hotels and other large accommodations will put a premium on visible evidence of greater cleanliness and hygiene than in the past.</br></br>To help the tourist sector rebound as quickly as possible, Indonesia should focus on two crucial areas. The first is promoting domestic tourism. Evidence from many markets has shown that domestic travel has recovered more quickly than international travel, especially among young tourists who see themselves as less vulnerable. In China, for instance, domestic air travel reached 90 percent of 2019 levels by August 2020, while international travel was still lagging well behind.</br></br>Unlike international tourists, who concentrate in Bali and East Nusa Tenggara, the majority of domestic tourists in Indonesia visit Java. To push rates of domestic tourism, the government and operators should promote lesser-known domestic attractions, like the Lake Toba region in North Sumatra, the Mandalika area in East Nusa Tenggara, and Likupang Beach in North Sulawesi. Discounts and other incentives could also help ignite domestic travel.</br></br>The country can also use the unintended lull in visitors to beef up its tourist infrastructure. The disruption provides an opportunity, for example, to improve airports, accommodations, and other facilities. The jump in digital activity brought by the pandemic can also be used to accelerate the adoption of new technologies by operators in the sector, from online booking systems to advanced analytics that can offer real-time information on tourist activities and behaviors.ation on tourist activities and behaviors.)

If not controlled, many jobs will be replaced by technology. Of course, this can threaten the lives of the Balinese people.

Although the presence of AI provides benefits, especially in providing efficiency in the world of tourism in Bali, this technology can also have negative impacts if not used wisely.</br></br> To overcome challenges in the tourism sector, the government must increase investment in skills training and technology education. This will help prepare the workforce to face technological developments with greater effectiveness. One of the solutions and strategies that I propose is to strengthen the government's role and responsibility in regulating and supervising the use and impact of AI technology in Bali. The government can provide assistance and facilities, such as capital assistance, subsidies, incentives, training, certification, and others, which can help the community to improve their quality and performance in the tourism sector. The government can also evaluate policies that support the transition of workers from traditional to modern sectors through skills conversion programs and financial support. Therefore, this effort can help optimize the use of technology while reducing losses for the Bali tourism sector in terms of the availability of skilled and quality human resources so that they can continue to compete along with technological developments.ete along with technological developments.)

He was enormously talented in drawing and painting, and we spent a lot of time together. He also took me out into Nature, where we walked for hours, and he taught me everything about flora and fauna. He was a great inspiration, and he showed me how to draw and how to appreciate and love the natural world around us. During the same time, I had to spend a lot of time in hospital in order to undergo many surgeries to correct the growth of my bones, as I was suffering from a rare bone disorder. This created an early awareness of the physical body and its limbs. It was fascinating to me when the doctor measured angles and the length of my bones, and how he could open up my body to correct those after drawing lines on my limbs. In summertime, I usually spent a lot of time playing in an old garden and plant nursery near my home, forgetting all the pain I had to go through the rest of the year. I loved all the greenhouses, which were full of exotic plants and trees such as banana and orange trees. It was hot and humid, and I could smell the plants and the soil. This world was magical and full of energy and fertility. This was life, and life wanted to flourish. I often dreamt and fantasized about exotic and tropical worlds where my soul was happy and free, a kind of paradise where you picked fruits from the trees, and life was free from troubles. My early childhood drawings often depicted tropical landscapes with exotic colourful birds and animals.</br></br>What was your initial impression of Bali, and how did it inspire your art?</br></br>When I first landed in Bali, I discovered the world I had been dreaming about, a kind of Garden of Eden full of life and colours. The tropical nature was alive and amazing, and the soil so incredibly fertile. People were friendly, and everyone seemed to be able to talk about art and aesthetics. And everyone seemed to be creative in one form or another. Bali was full of life, colours, details, sounds, and smells. It really appealed to all my senses and made me feel incredibly alive. Even the ground was not stable and moved sometimes.</br>I loved the passionate rains and thunderstorms, which were so intense and powerful. Life itself was at maximum in Bali, and I couldn’t feel anything but very alive. I loved it. Over time, I found lots of inspiration in the traditional life at the rice paddies, in Nature, and in markets. I love the simple life of man and nature, tightly integrated. Perhaps it’s still a dream in my mind about a Utopian world free of pain and sorrow. But it’s a beautiful dream, longing for peace and harmony in one’s soul.</br></br>Can you describe your creative process and how it has evolved over time?</br></br>During my time in art school, I became more and more fascinated by the human body. I spent countless hours drawing from life models to study the forms and lines of the body. I was especially fascinated by simple lines and how they cut and overlapped each other. I eventually started to play with these forms, stretching them and deconstructing them to my liking, a little bit like an orthopedic doctor rearranging the bones and limbs. The body doesn’t need to look anatomically correct to actually function and feel right. The important thing is that it feels good and works correctly. That’s how I construct the bodies on the canvas.</br></br>Do you see Bali as a colourful Utopian paradise?</br></br>I might dream about this Utopian paradise free of pain and sorrow and full of life, love, beauty and harmony. But of course this fantasy world doesn’t exist in reality. Wherever we live, life will always be life including everything from tears to laughter, and that’s how we grow ourselves and our characters.

  • Scion Charlotte Spence  + (Scion Charlotte Spence has a plan for all Scion Charlotte Spence has a plan for all you luxury, globe-trotting party vagabonds. Behold the House of Karma.</br></br>Charlotte, can you give us a brief background of who you are, and what brings you here today?</br></br>Hey, of course! This feels like a first date. I’m a 26 year-old Brit, currently based between Sydney and Bali (the dream!); I moved over to Australia for university about six years ago and have been lapping up the sunshine ever since. I’m really excited to be chatting to you today and keen to share a fun new project I think you’ll like the sound of . . .</br></br>What are your current passions?</br></br>I take after the rest of my family, so travel is really important to me and has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. Nothing excites me more than exploring new cultures. I’m also a drama kid at heart so I love the theatre, live music, fine dining . . . or just a good old party to be honest.</br></br>IG @Atomic.Blonde_ Who is she and when did you discover her?</br></br>Haha! Atomic Blonde is my latex-wearing, tech house playing, DJ alter ego! I discovered her about four years ago, when I realised I could turn ‘playing my favourite music to my friends’ into a viable side hustle. Since then, I’ve been lucky enough to play a whole host of my favourite events in Australia, alongside my DJ partner ‘Dutch Kiss’. We’re all about self-expression, uplifting music and high camp fun.</br></br>You are about to launch House of Karma. Briefly, tell us what it is?</br></br>House of Karma is an U35 members’ collective for the world of luxury travel and experiences. Drawing on the beauty of Karma’s current resorts, we’ll soon bring this to the next generation of ‘luxury rebels’, with pop-up festivals, wellness retreats, out-of-the-box experiences and networking events, both at Karma destinations and in our members’ home cities.</br></br>You are finally working for your father?</br></br>I am, and it’s really quite lovely so far! Dad and I have a lot in common in that we both have that entrepreneurial streak, and see Karma more as an entertainment industry than a hospitality one, so it’s great to have that initial common ground with my ‘boss’. I’m also massively inspired by him and have been my whole life, so working alongside him is a privilege I don’t take lightly. Pitching to him is still rather scary though – he’s tough!</br></br>Do you have any other siblings joining the ranks?</br></br>Yes! My sister and brother are both a bit younger so still at Uni and school but I have every confidence that they’ll be joining me soon. My sister is heading to do her first Karma sales training in India in a couple of months and I’m sure my brother will follow suit – once he finishes tearing it up on the school cricket pitch of course!</br></br>What are the strengths and touches that you, as a woman, will bring to what is typically seen as a male dominated service, a members club?</br></br>Oh, good one. I firmly believe that everyone should have a seat at the table or a foot in the door, and so I’d like to think that what I’ll bring to the world of members clubs is a whole heap of inclusivity. Yes, of course, there is an element of ‘selection’ involved, but I actually like to refer to House of Karma as a ‘collective’ rather than a ‘club’. Essentially, if you’re ambitious, open-minded, and down for one hell of a party, then we’d love to have you at our place.</br></br>What type of person would a HoK member be?</br></br>A House of Karma member is someone just like me; a luxury rebel, pampered vagabond, or hedonist who craves the unexpected and the reprieve from routine. We’re chatty, ambitious, and always looking for the next big adventure . . . with a side of fabulous!</br></br>Can you tell us more about the Bali launch?</br></br>Absolutely. We’re planning a huge party down at Karma Beach to celebrate our big launch on 13th June. After a VIP long lunch we’ll be opening the beach up to the masses, with drag queens, international DJs, signature ‘House of Karma’ cocktails and a whole lot of dancing in the sand. Come by and get a sense of what we’re all about!</br></br>And the international roll out?</br></br>Following this, we’ll be hosting our first ‘Founding Member’ networking events in Sydney and Perth, taking that signature Karma experience to Australia, before expanding across the globe later in 2023.</br></br>House of Karma is highly inclusive. Can you tell us about some of the LGBTQIA+ events you have in the planning?</br></br>Inclusion is something I am hugely passionate about and will never stop fighting for, and so at the heart of the House of Karma will be HEAPS of events for my LGBTQIA+ icons and allies. Think ‘detox and retox’ retreats at Karma destinations post-Mardi Gras, LGBTQIA+ networking nights and hot parties co-hosted by queer clubs all over the world.</br></br>More bang for your buck. Can you tell us what perks and privileges members can enjoy on joining?</br></br>It’s honestly a bit of a ‘too good to be true’ thing! Our members will benefit from nights of free accommodation at our resort destinations, huge discounts across spa, F&B and rooms year round, a bespoke ‘pimp my villa’ package, and invites to exclusive events both at Karma resorts and in their own cities! And that’s not even to mention all the members-only experiences we’ll be curating – think boat parties on the Nile, party weeks in Mykonos and a glamping festival on Gili Meno…</br></br>How does the House of Karma benefit from the global aspect of the original Karma brand?</br></br>I think that is what makes us unique. Karma already has so many breathtaking destinations, so half my work is done in that respect! Now it’s just about leveraging those locations and turning them into the perfect playground for all my like-minded House of Karma souls.</br></br>And vice versa, how does the group benefit?</br></br>To quote my father, “any great company recognises the need to evolve as new generations emerge” and I think that is just what we are doing here; moving with the times and bringing a whole new tribe of ambitious, experience-seeking young vagabonds into the Karma fold.</br></br>Lastly, you are looking to create global FOMO around HoK member’s wristbands. Any hints at how you intend to achieve this?</br></br>This is something I’m excited to see evolve. Let’s just say I hope to see House of Karma memberships soon become a must-have fashion statement. Get ready to see an influx of ‘HoK’ bracelets hitting the wrists of those around you soon . . .</br></br>Tel: +62 361 848 2202; +62 811 38203360 </br></br>IG: @wearehouseofkarma</br></br>www.houseofkarma.com.au</br></br>houseofkarma@karmagroup.comuseofkarma.com.au houseofkarma@karmagroup.com)

Elections are an important moment in our democracy. This is not only about choosing leaders, but also us giving them the mandate to overcome various problems facing society. Answering the topic raised in this oration is "What is the most urgent problem to be addressed by Bali's prospective leaders?".</br></br>First of all, we cannot ignore environmental problems, especially since Bali is known as Paradise Island because of its natural beauty. There is one thing that in my opinion really needs serious attention from potential Balinese leaders, namely the waste problem which will soon be over. Bali faces big challenges in waste management because the system is inefficient so it is unable to handle large volumes of waste. This situation was further exacerbated by fires that occurred at the Sarbagita Suwung Regional Landfill in Denpasar City, the Mandung Landfill in Tabanan Regency, and the Temesi Landfill in Gianyar Regency during the dry season, causing environmental damage and negative impacts on daily air quality. This problem is not only a local issue, but also an urgent reminder for us to take action because it impacts many aspects of people's lives. Therefore, the government's presence plays an important role in handling this case.</br></br>I am sure that so far the government has always tried its best, but Bali's leaders must then improve and re-examine the preparation of a strategy for handling potential waste that can be investigated from the roots to the end. It is important to note that the success of a waste management program is very dependent on existing infrastructure and technology. If waste management plants, landfills, or recycling facilities are inadequate, then the program may not produce the expected results. The success of the waste management program is also closely related to the level of community participation. If there is not enough awareness or support from the public in waste scanning, recycling, or waste reduction, the program may experience difficulties. Apart from that, policies that are inappropriate or unable to overcome the waste problem can become an obstacle. Sometimes, unsupportive policies or weak implementation can hinder program effectiveness. </br></br>Prospective Balinese leaders must have a clear vision about how to protect and preserve Bali's environment for future generations. Prospective leaders, Bali must have a concrete action plan that involves economic, social and environmental aspects. A thorough evaluation of the waste management program needs to be carried out to identify core problems and adjust the strategies implemented. Close collaboration with various parties is the key to creating holistic solutions. Senuma's active involvement, parties, including the government, private sector and the community, will ensure environmental sustainability in Bali for future generations. No less important, awareness of the importance of recycling and reducing waste needs to be instilled more deeply,</br></br>Thank you to Mrs/Mr. Candidate Leader, Bali for your attention and cooperation to make Bali clean from mountains of rubbish. Let us all work together to be agents of change for a clean Bali.</br></br>Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Omclean Bali. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om)

Her father was a nurse and an integral part of Indonesia’s struggle against the Dutch. Suryani’s mother was a successful business woman who supported the family’s finances.</br></br>Motivated by a strong will to treat her young sick mother, Suryani learned meditation when she was only 14. While many of her family members initially doubted her abilities, they were surprisingly convinced to see her mother cured. Suryani then began treating sick people in her community through meditation.</br></br>After graduating from high school, Suryani studied medicine at Udayana University in Bali, where she specialized in psychiatry. In 1982, she received her degree as a psychiatrist—a profession she chose out of an innate curiosity to understand her upbringing and its effects on her current personality. In 1988 Suryani attained her Ph.D. from Airlangga University, Surabaya.</br></br>While working as the head psychiatrist at Udayana University in Bali, Suryani introduced a more efficient standard operational procedure to manage mentally ill patients.

  • CHEF DAIJIRO HORIKOSHI  + (TAKUMI’S CHEF Daijiro Horikoshi is a masteTAKUMI’S CHEF Daijiro Horikoshi is a master artisan who has devoted his life to perfecting Kaiseki cuisine.</br></br>Chef Daijiro San … with respect you don’t sound like any ‘normal’ kind of Chef to us … what’s your story and how did you end up in Bali? Did you train in a Japanese kitchen, and did it involve years of internship under a Master?</br></br>I am the son of the third generation of a tempura restaurant located in Osaka. The restaurant had a 62-year history before it closed. My grandmother started the restaurant, and my mom took over before I eventually took over from her. I ran the restaurant for over 16 years, and in 2012, I moved to Bali. When I was 13 years old, I had the opportunity to travel with my stepfather, who was a Native American leader from the United States named Dennis Banks. We travelled to 23 countries around the world, and this experience exposed me to different cultures, religions, and people. When I decided to move to Bali, it was because my wife had a dream of living on a tropical island. We wanted our children to have a global experience and learn English, so we chose Bali as it offered a mix of different cultures. It was the perfect balance for us, and we couldn’t find it anywhere else in the world.</br></br>Tell us first about KOHAKU, and your journey to making edible crystals…</br></br>Although I don’t have a pastry background, I grew up in a traditional Japanese environment due to my grandmother’s influence. She was a geisha and introduced me to various aspects of Japanese art, tradition, and confections. When I moved to Bali, I missed Japanese sweets, as they were not readily available, so I started making Japanese confections on my own. I never thought about turning it into a business until a friend suggested it. Together with another friend, we started the business, and my wife encouraged me to pursue it further. That’s how our Japanese confection brand, KOHAKU, came to be.</br></br>How does this relate to cuisine in Japan?</br></br>Kohakuto, which means ‘amber sugar’ in Japanese, has a connection to Japanese tea ceremonies. Japanese confectionery has always been closely associated with tea and tea ceremonies. The tea ceremony involves not only tea but also meals, and it holds a deep relationship with Japanese cuisine.</br></br>There are two types of kaiseki, one for parties and the other for tea ceremonies. Both have a connection with tea and confections. So, the idea of creating edible crystals relates to the long-standing tradition of Japanese traditions.</br></br>Why does Japanese cuisine appear so different and innovative to Westerners, compared to more traditional styles, like say classic French, or Italian? Should the Old School be more innovative?</br></br>I don’t see a big difference between Japanese cuisine and other traditional styles like French or Italian. Each cuisine reflects its own history, culture, and region. I don’t think one is more innovative than the other. It’s difficult to answer whether the old school should be more innovative because innovation is subjective. What may seem innovative today might become traditional in the future. As chefs, we are always learning and trying to create dishes that make people happy. We focus on making something good rather than just being innovative. Our job is an ongoing journey of learning and creating.</br></br>Where does innovation go too far, and when should we recognize and respect classic cooking practices?</br></br>From my perspective, innovation goes too far when it becomes disconnected from our everyday lives and focuses solely on being different for the sake of standing out. Some chefs get caught up in trying to show how they are different from others, losing sight of the true essence of cooking. It’s like we lose our direction and wander aimlessly. Whether it’s in cooking or any aspect of life, we need to take a moment to pause, reflect on where we stand, and look back at our past and the processes that brought us here. It’s essential to respect the ingredients we use and show appreciation to everyone involved, not just for the sake of being different.</br></br>Tell us about Takumi, your restaurant, and the inspiration behind it.</br></br>Takumi is a restaurant where we currently serve Kaiseki-style Japanese cuisine. We offer a choice of nine-course or six-course degustation menus, and we will soon be launching vegan courses as well. Our focus is on traditional and authentic Japanese cuisine. The inspiration behind Takumi is unique. We are not simply importing Japan to Bali; instead, we are creating Japan here. We utilize the amazing local ingredients available in Bali and Indonesia, embracing the wealth of flavours they offer. As a Japanese chef, I incorporate Japanese culinary techniques and strive to express the true essence of Japanese cuisine. Additionally, I am passionate about training young chefs in Bali, sharing my knowledge, skills, and the history and philosophy of Japanese cuisine, in order to elevate the level of Japanese culinary expertise in the region.</br></br>Why is great service such an important part of the culinary experience?</br></br>Great service is crucial because it enhances the overall dining experience. When customers pay a significant amount for their meals, they should be able to enjoy them fully. It’s important to create an atmosphere where people can feel happy and comfortable. The emotions and atmosphere in a restaurant can significantly impact the perception of the food. Service acts as an additional spice that complements the dishes coming out of the kitchen. It’s not just about the food; it’s about the complete experience – from the moment guests enter the restaurant until they leave. We aim to leave a lasting memory and ensure that our guests have a truly enjoyable time at our restaurant.</br></br>Who are your heroes in the world of cooking?</br></br>Although it may sound cliché, my heroes in the world of cooking are my grandmother and my mother. However, my true heroes are the young chefs working in the Takumi kitchen. Each of them brings their unique experiences, which I have never had. Their willingness to learn and their different perspectives make them admirable and worthy of respect. These young chefs are my heroes because they challenge themselves and strive to become respected in the culinary industry.</br></br>What knives do you use?</br></br>I primarily use a small petty knife. I don’t have a specific brand preference. I own several Japanese knives, but my favourite is the small petty knife, which I use for personal use at home. I don’t typically use large knives in my cooking.</br></br>What’s the most exciting new ingredient you are incorporating into your food?</br></br>Well, every week brings new and exciting ingredients to our kitchen, even if they are the same vegetables we’ve used before. Each batch has its own unique qualities, and that’s what makes it thrilling. We have conversations with the ingredients, exploring their potential and listening to what they have to say. When they arrive in the kitchen, we greet them and get to know them. ‘Hello, my name is blah blah blah, who are you?’ We might say to a red radish. It’s a delightful way to engage with the ingredients and understand their desires. Do they want to be a sauce, a garnish, or simply shine on their own? We listen to their aspirations and help them become what they want to be. It’s the chef’s job, and it’s the most enjoyable and exciting aspect of our work.</br></br>What motto inspires your life as a chef?</br></br>Well, I’ve touched on this in previous answers, but it’s a question worth pondering. As a chef, I find immense joy and satisfaction in working with ingredients and creating dishes. It’s the happiness and fun that come from this process. There are many people involved in the culinary world, from suppliers to farmers, fisherman, and even drivers. My motto is simple: I want to make people happy. I strive to bring joy to others through my creations and my work. It’s not just about the guests; it’s about everyone who is connected to food and to me. I want to contribute to a collective happiness and create a positive impact within this circle. As a chef, I am just one part of a larger ecosystem, and my goal is to make everyone in this circle happy.</br></br>IG & FB: @kohakubali</br></br>www.kohakubali.com</br></br>IG: @takumibali</br></br>FB: @Takumi Bali</br></br>www.takumibali.comkumibali FB: @Takumi Bali www.takumibali.com)

The violent oppressions by the Dutch resulted many rebellions in various dominions of kingdoms and sultanates under the Dutch colonialism. But unfortunately, the Dutch could easily suppress them by applying their divide et impera (divide and rule) tactic to break the strength of those kingdoms and sultanates by playing off against each other, between a king and the other, between the royal family and the king, the king and his people, and between people as well.</br>The long war experiences and also the more and more Indonesian youth got academic education had aroused the spirit of unity among various social strata and ethnic groups and the awareness to defend their country and to drive away the colonizers. It was initiated by a number of intellectual youths from various regions that on October 28th, 1928, for the firsttime, the Indonesian youth held a conference in which they declared the so called the Sumpah Pemuda or the Youth Pledge. They swore that they were of one mother country: Indonesia, one nationality: Indonesian, and of one language: Bahasa Indonesia or the Indonesian language. This declaration was simultaneously participated by many youth organizations from various islands and ethnics in Indonesia such as, Jong Java of Central and East Java, Jong Pasundan of West Java, Jong Minahasa of North Sulawesi, Jong Ambon of Maluku, Jong Celebes of Sulawesi, Jong Madura, Jong Sumatranen, Jong Batak of Batak ethnic group, etc which later on resulted an idea to form the Jong Indonesia to accomodate all ethnics in Indonesia.</br>This spirit of Sumpah Pemuda has also awakened various youth organizations in Indonesia.One well-known organization, among others, is Sarekat Islam, which was originally as a mere religious movement, then developed into the first popular movement in Indonesia, then the Indische Partij party which also moved in politics. At that time on the island of Java nationalist figures emerged such as dr. Soetomo, HOS. Cokroaminoto, Suwardi Suryaningrat (Ki Hadjar Dewantoro), Douwes Dekker, Tjipto Mangunkusumo, Agus Salim, Soekarno, Muhammad Hatta, and so on. Their pioneering work eventually also inspired other regions to do the same, namely to unite the regions in expelling the Dutch occupation, one of which was a struggle carried out by the Balinese people.</br>Bali Island is one of the bases of the struggle against the Dutch, among which the famous is the Jagaraga War of 1848-1849 in Buleleng, the Kusamba War of 1849, the Banjar People’s Resstance in 1868, the Puputan Badung War of 1906 launched by the King of Badung, Puputan Klungkung in 1908 and also the Puputan Margarana War in the Marga Village of Tabanan conducted by Liutenant Colonel I Gusti Ngurah Rai along with Laskar Ciung Wanara who had waged in all-out war (Puputan) against the Dutch in 1946.</br>The struggle performed by I Gusti Ngurah Rai has left deep memories for the people of Bali, so as to commemorate his services, a monument, street name, airport name, and so on were erected. The awarding of his services is solely because he has set an example to the younger generation in the struggle for independence which is done unconditionally. The government’s attention to the services of the fighters in Bali was realized by the construction of a grand monument located in the Niti Mandala area, Denpasar known as the the Monument of Balinese Struggle.</br>What is presented in this monument is to recall all the struggles of the Balinese heroes before and after independence. It is also hoped that this monument will also has some benefit in an effort to increase the appreciation of the younger generation in living up to the patriotic values demonstrated by the heroes who sacrifice all his body and soul in defending the dignity of his people without ever expecting retribution.</br>The monument was designed by Mr. Ida Bagus Gede Yadnya, a young man who was at that time was a student in the Department of Architecture, Faculty of Engineering, Udayana University, Denpasar. He succeeded in winning and becoming a champion in the design competition of the the Monument of Balinese Struggle which was carried out in 1981 by setting aside his senior architects in Bali.</br>After the design and drawing improvements were made, in August 1988 through the budget of the Provincial Government of Bali a groundbreaking was carried out, as a sign of the start of the construction of the monument. After going through various obstacles and trials due to the depreciation of the Rupiah in 1997, finally this monument could be completed also in 2001. After that, the development was continued with the making of dioramas that depicted the life history of the Balinese from time to time. In addition to the dioramas, a park was also built to add the beauty and comfort of this monument, which as a whole could be completed in 2003. On June 14, 2003, in conjunction with the Opening of the 25th Bali Arts Festival in 2003, Indonesian President Megawati Soekarnoputri had the pleasure of inaugurating the Monument of Balinese Struggle. Since then the monument has been officially opened for public.</br>PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES</br>The purpose of making dioramas that tells a story of the struggle of the Balinese people is to reconstruct important historical events that have occured in Bali, so that what is implied in them will be more easily appreciated by younger generation.</br>The aim is to perpetuate the spirit of the struggle of the Balinese people from time to time and pass down the spirit of patriotism in the form of self-sacrifice, love of the motherland, love of unity and love of peace, togetherness to the next generation of the nation, and the main thing is to maintain the integrity of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia (Homeland).</br>THE PHILOSOPHICAL BASIC OF THE MONUMENT OF BALINESE STRUGGLE</br>This monument is an embodiment of lingga and yoni. Lingga is male symbol (purusa), while yoni is female symbol (pradana). The meeting between the two elements is a symbol of fertility and well-being. In addition to the Lingga-Yoni philosophy, this monument is also based on the philosophy of the Mandara mountain screening (Mandara Giri) in ocean of milk (Ksirarnawa). This story comes from the Adi Parwa book, the first chapter (parwa) of the Mahabarata epic. It is said that the gods and giants (daitya) sought the water of eternal life (tirtha amertha) by turning around Mandara mountain in the ocean of milk. The implementation of the screening of mount Mandara is regulated as follows:</br>1. Turtles (akupa) as the base of mount Mandara</br>2. Besuki Dragon (Naga Besuki) as a strap and turning mount.</br>3. The gods hold the dragon’s tail and the daitya hold the head, while at the top of the mountain sits God Shiva.</br>After working with great difficulty turning the Mandara mountain then successively came out: crescent (Ardha Chandra), Goddess Sri and Laksmi, flying horse (kuda Ucaisrawah), tree of happiness (Kastuba Mani), and the last came out Goddess Dhanwantari who brought Tirta Amertha. The story of searching for Amertha water is then reflected in the shape of this monument, with the following explanation:</br>1. The earthen pitcher containing tirta amertha was symbolized by a kind of pot (swamba), which is located on the top of the monument.</br>2. Naga Besuki’s tail is realized near the pot.</br>3. The head of the dragon is manifested in the entrance gate (Kori Agung).</br>4. Turtle (Bedawang Nala/ akupa) as the foundation of the monument is located on the edge of the lake and its head on Kori Agung.</br>5. The pond that surrounds the monument as the symbol of Ocean of milk (Ksirarnawa).</br>6. Mandara mountain (Mandara Giri) as the overall shape of the monument building.</br>Philosophically, the initiators of this monument wish to give a message to the younger generation that the struggle to achieve success can only be done with hard work, perseverance, and mutual cooperation as told when the Gods and Daitya together seek eternal life.</br>Another symbol depicting the power of God Almighty (Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa) contained in this building is a building plan in the shape of an octagon and an eight-leaf lotus. The eight-leaf lotus is called Asta Dala as a symbol of the omnipotence of God Almighty called Asta Aiswarya, namely:</br>1. Anima : the mildness nature like atom.</br>2. Lagima : the lightness nature like ether.</br>3. Mahima : the great nature that fills all places.</br>4. Prapti : the nature of reaching all desired places.</br>5. Prakamya : all wills are achieved by Him.</br>6. Isitawa : the nature of dominating everything and the most important One.</br>7. Wasitwa : the most powerful character.</br>8. Yatrakama Wasayitwa : His nature and His will cannot be challenged.</br>The symbol of patriotism and nationalism can be found in the 17 number of foot steps towards the main entrance, 8 main pillars of the building and the height of the monument is 45 meters. If these figures are strung together, the numbers 17, 8, and 45 are arranged which show the date, month, and year of the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence, August 17, 1945.

  • Bali Matangi anggen Pariwisata Digital Berbasis NFT  + (The Covid-19 pandemic that has hit almost The Covid-19 pandemic that has hit almost the entire world, including Bali, has had a significant impact, especially on the tourism sector, which is the mainline in the Balinese economy. This is supported by a decrease in the number of tourists to Bali in 2020 by 82.96%, which causes the tourism industry managers to be unable to develop the tourism business line that is being built.</br>However, this should not dampen the enthusiasm of various components of Balinese society in generating Bali tourism. One alternative that can be done is the adaptation of the tourism industry to the technology that is currently being discussed, the Non-Fungible Token (NFT). NFT exists as a representation of individual or group assets or ownership that has unique, non-exchangeable, and valuable properties. This technology adaptation is expected to be an answer to tourist concerns, security and convenience.</br>The workings of the tourism business model with the NFT platform are almost similar to the voucher system in the tourism industry. However, to ensure the security and convenience of users, this platform will be supported by blockchain technology.

Today, let me present an oration entitled "The Narrowing of Rice Field Areas in Bali, Causing the Subak System to Be Threatened, Tourism to Advance"</br>OK, ladies and gentlemen.</br>Subak is a Balinese irrigation system which functions to regulate the distribution of irrigation flows that irrigate each plot of rice field area according to the customs of Balinese society. The Subak system has been recognized by UNESCO as a world cultural heritage. This is what causes Bali to become fertile because of the subak system, which means that the rice fields in Bali do not lack water. Making rice fields in Bali into natural tourist attractions that are in great demand in Bali, for example in Jatiluwih, Tegalalang Rice Terrace.</br>Currently, Bali is famous for its very beautiful tourist attractions, because of this, Bali is nicknamed "Paradise Island". However, the impact of tourism in Bali which is increasingly developing has caused many rice fields to be converted into Bali tourism infrastructure and converted into housing complexes, especially now that Bali is being hit by a long drought which is causing farmers to fail to harvest, such as in Penebel, Tabanan, Farmers failed to harvest up to 107 hectares. And the status of Subak land changed to empty land. Then this land can be used as tourism infrastructure and a housing complex in Bali. Of course, this must be taken into account, because now people are becoming less aware of Balinese traditions, customs and culture due to the great influence of today's increasingly advanced technology.</br>I have said a lot, and I have made many mistakes. Hopefully the tradition of the subak system in Bali will remain sustainable and the Balinese people will still remember this ancestral heritage.

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.)

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.

  • Program KIP ring Kabupaten Bangli kari Salah Sasaran.  + (The Smart Indonesia Card (KIP) is also calThe Smart Indonesia Card (KIP) is also called the Smart Indonesia Program (PIP). This is the Jokowi government's first program which is part of the Healthy Indonesia Card (KIS) and the Prosperous Family Card (KKS). The Smart Indonesia program aims to increase access for school-age children from poor families to school. KIP is a card intended for poor and vulnerable families who want to send their children (aged 7-18 years) to school for free. KIP recipients are given regular cash funds from the government which are stored in the KIP card function to attend school for free, both those who have registered and those who have not yet registered in schools or madrasas so that the dropout rate can drop drastically.</br></br>So, the target of KIP is for students who excel and are less fortunate. But in fact its implementation is not in line with expectations, many cases occur regarding KIP being mistargeted. One of them occurred in Bangli Regency. A real example is in my own village, namely Banua Village. Those who are entitled to get KIP (Smart Indonesia Card) are children or students whose families are on the line or in the Poor Family Card (KK) group so that at first glance the KIP program is right on target, but if you look more deeply In fact, the KIP or PIP program still finds errors in its implementation. There are many students in my village whose families are not in the poor family, but in fact these students are underprivileged students. And because of the implementation of the poor KK, students who are not included in the poor KK, who are in fact less well off, cannot make KIP. Even though these students are students who excel and really need the KIP. An example of a student who experiences KIP inaccuracies is myself. I'm not in the poor KK line so I can't get the KIP, even though in fact I really need the card myself. Not to mention that the KIP cannot be made because I am not a poor family member, but in reality my family and I are not someone who can afford it. So, that was the inaccuracy of KIP in Bangli Regency, so what about the wrong target? I have also experienced this wrong KIP target. At that time, I was in junior high school, one of my friends from Trunyan Village had a KIP and received a scholarship even though he himself was someone who was capable and quite rich, had a nice house and had no economic difficulties. This is what makes me feel that KIP in Bangli is still not on target and its implementation tends to be inappropriate and even unfair. Then what solution should the government take? In my opinion, what the government must do to overcome the problem of inaccuracy and wrong targeting of the KIP is, first to do research on the students who receive the KIP, whether they are really underprivileged students? We can see this from the condition of their homes, their parents' jobs, their parents' income every month and so on, well if someone fulfills the things that make them get KIP as I explained above and they are a smart and outstanding student then in my opinion they are worthy of getting KIP. In short, the Bangli Regency Government must be more careful in recruiting students who are worthy of receiving the KIP.dents who are worthy of receiving the KIP.)

  • ULUWATU LACE  + (The Yak spoke with Ajit Khatai, ceo of UluThe 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)

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.

  • Tyra Kleen  + (Tyra Kleen (29 June 1874 - 17 September 19Tyra 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.)

  • Wayan Sila  + (“The very first night I slept over at my n“The very first night I slept over at my new studio an owl flew into the garden. 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. Wayan Sila is a painter of immense sensitivity and his works are vehicles of healing qualities and love.re vehicles of healing qualities and love.)
  • 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.”)
