Negara (Bali Post) -The forest destroyers keep on coming in Jembrana especially

in the East part at Pekutatan. The green zone seems used as aplantation area which became a normal situation. The village lead-ers will legalise this with the program “hutan kemasyarakatan”(society forest) yet Bali Representatives in Renon completely con-cerned of the wrong society forest understanding.

Head of Medewi Village, IGK Nada, when confirmed lastWednesday (8/6) did not decline his villagers’ activities especiallythe two dusun that are on the border of the forest, Pangkung Slepaand Baler Setra. His and other 5 villages has now handed a pro-posal in making 200 hectares of it as a land taken care by thevillage. To him illegal logging has been pressured and decreas-ing. This proposal will lessen disturbance towards the forests.

As seen in Medewi Forest, Pekutatan, almost everyday thoseplantation ‘land owner’ came in and out, bringing products oftheirs such as bananas, jackfruit and more in the afternoon througha walking path or even a motorbike which then sold in little hutsoutside the forest as if it is a fruit market on the road sides.

The situation has also caused a social gap between the societyin the source and the end of river as those in the end still dependson farming (rice fields) while the source used the forest. Appar-ently those who have depended on the plantation got greater in-come and manage to build a better house or bought cars. It is nolonger a secret these people used the forests and to the people itis not the people’s fault it is happening, but the forestry policethat haven’t been clear and not controlling it. “If they are forestpolice they should’ve been in the forest not on the end of theriver as their office is there,” a resident stated.

In other hand Bali House of Representatives Commission IImember, I Ketut Suania, stated there has been a different under-standing of society forest which is suppose to be making a forestof a land outside the protected forest which in this case the peoplehave gone to the protected forest and used that protected forest.“This has to be clarified,” he stated. Besides that the ProvinceGovernment should rethink on how to preserve these plantedplants. “There was a starting budget in buying seeds and seed-lings but then no longer controlled. Don’t blame them that theythen went into the forest, I am sure about this because I havelived on the border of a forest,” he concluded. (olo)

It is widely assumed that refer-endum questions opposing a returnto nuclear power and in favour ofrevoking a law that givesBerlusconi a form of legal immu-nity will be approved.

The success of the vote is there-fore likely to hinge on the turnoutand after Sunday, opposition partiesbacking the vote were optimistic.

But Aquino acknowledged in anIndependence Day speech that for-midable problems continue toplague the impoverished SoutheastAsian nation, including shortages ofjobs, schools, doctors and hospitalsand a dependence on imported ricedespite its vast farmlands.

More than a century after risingup against Spanish colonizers, Fili-pinos still have not been liberatedfrom social ills like poverty becausethey have failed to eradicate corrup-tion, Aquino said in Kawit town inCavite province south of Manilawhere revolutionaries declared in-dependence from Spain 113 yearsago. “If we want to liberate thecountry, we need to free the gov-ernment and ourselves from greed,”

Aquino said without elaboratingthat his administration had stoppedgraft-tainted projects in severalgovernment agencies, including theDepartment of Public Works andHighways and the Laguna LakeDevelopment Authority.

“We will see if Erdogan is readyfor these with his majority or willhe go his own way and impose hisown views on Turkey — in whichcase we will have difficult times.”

The vote marked AK’s highestelectoral score since it first cameto power in 2002, but failed to winErdogan enough seats to call a ref-erendum on a planned new con-stitution.

TUXTLA GUTIERREZ, Mexico – Mexican police on Sunday discovered 210 mainly Cen-tral and South American migrants crammed inside a truck near the country’s southern border,an immigration official said.

Each year, hundreds of thou-sands of illegal migrants crossMexico’s southern border on theirway to the United States. They areoften smuggled in brutal condi-tions, packed tightly inside tractortrailers on long journeys. They aresubject to robbery, extortion andkidnapping along the way.

Loa, a 23-year-old from El Sal-vador, was among the migrants de-tained Sunday. He was prohibitedby immigration authorities fromgiving his last name.

Visibly haggard, Loa was buy-ing a meat-filled sandwich passedto him through prison bars from astreet vendor.

“It was very hot and we had no

water,” he told The AssociatedPress about his trek, which beganFriday. His plan had been to reachLos Angeles.

The United Nations estimatesthat smuggling migrants into theUnited States is a $6.6 billion busi-ness annually. That doesn’t includeanother $1 billion paid by thou-sands of non-Mexicans to crossfrom Guatemala into Mexico andthen travel north toward the U.S.border, according to a 2010 U.N.report on transnational crime.

In May, 513 people were ap-prehended in two trailers inChiapas, bordering Guatemala.They represented a cargo worth atleast $3.5 million. Another trailerfilled with 219 people was discov-ered in January.

For example, whenthe female envoy of SouthSulawesi, Risma Reskananga,highlighted the topic Dana Puniaor charity, the Hindu of Bugis eth-nic carried many values of indig-enous wisdom as illustration tostrengthen the material of her re-ligious discourse. Similarly, whenparticipants from outside Baliraised the topic Tri Hita Karana,they also tended to raise the val-ues of indigenous wisdom to en-courage the awareness of howimportant to keep harmonious re-lations of human beings to theCreator, human relations to fellowhumans and human relations tothe environment.

“Of the seven billion people thatnow inhabit our planet, 60 percentlive in Asia. As their economiesgrow, they will seek and compete forfinite natural resources, a pattern thatin previous centuries led to wars,conquest, exploitation and untoldsuffering,” Yudhoyono added.

One key issue up for discussionat the forum is food security withregional leaders keenly aware of theimpact of rising prices on poor popu-lations.

“Every six seconds a child diesbecause of a lack of food. We needto find sustainable food security sys-tem,” WEF co-chairman PaulPolman, also the CEO of Unilever,told reporters.

WEF head of Asia directorSushant Palakurthi Rao said partici-pants, including those from the As-sociation of Southeast Asian Nations(ASEAN) regional bloc, will sharetheir expertise on the issue.

A food security initiative whichwill be launched at the forum align-ing the food industry and regionalpolicy makers.

“The conversation taking placein Indonesia is similar to the oneswe’ve done before in Tanzania andVietnam, combine the expertise thecountries which have successful ag-riculture policies with expertise insupply chain management and agri-culture efficiency,” Rao told AFP atthe sidelines of the meeting.

Ob-viously, they grew and developedin different natural conditions andcultures.

“Instead, the diversity hasmade the Hindu of Indonesia lookmore beautiful. In every opportu-nity and guidance, we do expectthey still appear in their respec-tive original identity and culture.Appearance and expression in thisevent may vary, but the contentthey convey must be the same be-cause they refer to the same Vedicscriptures,” he said.

Yudha Triguna was deeplyproud to the envoys from outsideBali as no longer dominated byBalinese descents in diaspora.However, many participants of theeleventh UDG were the nativechildren to the regions where theirancestors had long been a firmadherent of Hinduism.

Indonesian trade minister MariPangestu said that a 10 percent in-crease in food prices in Indonesia ledto a one percent rise in poverty lev-els.

“We should not wait until the nextspike before we act,” Pangestu saidon food price.

An initiative on disaster responseis also expected to be launched at theforum.

Among the heads of governmentattending the forum are Singapore’sPrime Minister Lee Hsien Loong,and his counterpart from Thailand,Abhisit Vejjajiva.

WEF on Wednesday released it’sfirst-ever Indonesia CompetitivenessReport which found that the archi-pelago of 240 million people hadshowed the strongest progressamong the Group of 20 countries.

Ranked 44th of 139 economiesin the Global Competitiveness Index,Indonesia “has done remarkably wellin the past decade and has provenvery resilient during the global eco-nomic crisis,” WEF economist andthe report’s author, Thierry Geiger,said. Poor infrastructure was how-ever among its “most glaring short-comings”, he added.

According to its website theWorld Economic Forum is an inde-pendent organization bringing to-gether top business leaders, govern-ments and academics to discuss re-sponses to challenges facing theworld.

Babi Kecap(Pork Cooked in Soya Sauce)

Ingredients

o 1/2 kg (1 1/4lb) fillet of pork -or leg ofpork

o 1 tb Clear soyasauce

o 2 tb Plain flour o 1/2 ts

Powdered ginger o 20 g (4 oz)

button mushrooms o 4 Cloves garlic o 1 sl of root ginger, about 2 cm -(1") across

and 1/2 cm -(1/4") thick o 3 tb Dark soya sauce o Pepper or a pinch of chilli -powder o 2 tb water o 2 tb Medium dry sherry or rice -wine

(optional) o 2 ts Lemon juice o 6 tb Oil or pork fat

DirectionsThis, as its name suggests, is pork cooked in soya

sauce. It is a particular favourite with my own husbandand children, who always know when it is about toappear on the table because the ginger and garlicfrying in the sauce smell so deliciously savoury.

Cut the pork into small cubes. Put the flour into abowl and add the clear soya sauce and ginger powder,mixing them well together. Coat the pork with themixture and then let it stand for at least 30 minutes.

Clean and slice the mushrooms. Peel the garlic andginger and slice them very thin; you can use these thinslices as they are, or cut them again into very tinysticks.

Heat the oil or fat in a wok or thick frying pan and frythe meat, half of it at a time, turning it from time totime, for 5 minutes.

Repeat the process for the remaining half of themeat. The flour that coated the meat will tend to stay inthe pan or stick to the bottom of it, but leave it there-itwill thicken the sauce later. Now take most of the oilout of the pan, leaving only about two tablespoonswhich you then heat again. In this, fry the tiny slices ofgarlic and ginger and the mushrooms, stirringcontinuously, for i minute. Add the soya sauce, thewater and the meat. mix well, season with pepper orchilli powder, and stir continuously for 1 or 2 minutes.just before serving, add the sherry or rice wine and thelemon juice. Serve hot.

This dish keeps extremely well in the freezer, and itis worth making a large quantity from, say, half a leg-ofpork, which is much cheaper than buying pork fillet. Ifyou are going to freeze your Babi Kecap, however, donot add the sherry or lemon juice at the time ofcooking. To serve from the freezer, thaw the meat outcompletely and heat quickly on a high flame for 2 to 3minutes, stirring or shaking the pan well all the time.Add the sherry or rice wine and lemon juice just beforeserving.

Beauty can stop everyone’s eyesflickering. Beauty of the kid song canlullaby a baby. Similarly, beauty alsocan toss the imagination, soothe themind and draw people to get near. Balihas many sources of that beauty of-fering the charm of nature, culture oradventure.

By maintaining traditions inspiredby Hinduism, Balinese people go onrunning in harmony with the time. Inother words, they do not feel inferiorbecause of inheriting those traditions.Beauty in the form of various dancemovements has been introduced sinceearly ages. On seeing a dance staged,a toddler may watch it attentively orits fingers move and move as if imi-tating the movement of the dance.

Virtually all customary villages inBali have gamelan troupe. This troupeplays important role in expressingtheir entertainment arts and accom-panying every ritual activity. Thisexistence gives opportunity to villag-ers from child to adult to express theirartistic talent especially in dance,drama and gamelan arts. Young girlsunder twelve or elementary schoolage have a chance to participate inperforming Rejang Dance. By wear-ing white and yellow costumes andfloral decoration on head, they dancebeautifully accompanied by gamelanmusic. Rejang Dance is one of thesacred dances performed in relationto the organization of temple anniver-sary or odalan. Other than putting a

JAKARTA/CAIRO – French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde stretched her lead in therace for the IMF’s top job on Sunday when Indonesia became the first big developing economyto back her publicly.

tions, and has high integrity andskills.”

Several large emerging econo-mies have been critical of thelongstanding tradition of the IMFbeing led by Europeans.

But they have refrained frombacking Mexican central bankgovernor Agustin Carstens, theonly well-known challenger froman emerging economy untilFischer’s announcement.

The French finance minister,who is on a world tour to drum upsupport, said during a Sunday stopin Cairo she had got “very affir-mative” support from Egypt.

In a further boost for Lagarde,the United Arab Emirates declaredits support for her on Sunday.

The search to fill the top job atthe world’s main rescue-lendingagency began after FrenchmanDominique Strauss-Kahn resignedin May, charged with the at-tempted rape of a New York hotelmaid, which he denies.

The move by Fischer was a sur-prise. At 67, he is two years pastthe age limit for applicants and the

IMF would have to change thoserules for him to stay in the race.

Seeking to capitalize on re-spect for his work as a deputy IMFmanaging director between 1994and 2001 and as a former WorldBank chief economist, Fischerplayed up his expertise advantageover Lagarde, a former corporatelawyer who does not have a for-mal economics background.

Fischer told the Wall StreetJournal that when serious eco-nomic problems arise, IMF staff-ers often offer conflicting advice.“Without having that training, it’svery hard to know, who’s rightand who’s wrong. You have tohave a framework to thinkthrough the problems.”

Earlier on Sunday, Israeli Fi-nance Minister Yuval Steinitz saidFischer’s “chances are not great”due to politics and his age. “Wereit purely professional one wouldbe hard pressed to find a betterperson than Fischer,” Steinitz toldarmy radio.

Fischer was born in Zambiaand holds both Israeli and U.S.

citizenship. The former couldpose a problem for Arab countriesand the latter because the IMF jobnormally goes to a European onthe grounds that a U.S. nationalalready gets to fill another post,the top job at the World Bank.

Fischer’s IMF record may alsobe questioned in Asia, where heremains associated with harshIMF-backed austerity measuresand free-market policies that sev-eral countries in the region wereforced to adopt in the late 1990sin return for aid to counter a fi-nancial crisis — including Indo-nesia.

The IMF board is due to choosethe next managing director byJune 30. The United States and theEuropean Union hold almostenough votes jointly to choose thewinning candidate.

Nonetheless, Lagarde’s abilityto clinch support from large de-veloping countries is vital. In2000, the Clinton administrationblocked Germany’s Caio Koch-Weser after his bid for the IMF topjob failed to get broad supportbeyond Europe.

One potential pitfall forLagarde is an inquiry in Franceinto her role in a controversialcompensation payment to aFrench businessman. Lagarde has

said she has no concerns about thecase.

Whoever runs the IMF may endup with more than the world’slarge post-recession debts toworry about, after revelations thatthe Washington-based IMF’s sen-sitive databases and economic in-formation archives may havefallen prey to cyber hackers.

Lagarde’s latest campaign stopsincluded Saudi Arabia on Saturday.Mexico’s Carstens visited NewDelhi on Friday and is due to visitWashington on Monday.

Big emerging economies suchas China, India, Brazil and SouthAfrica have demanded that Eu-rope relinquish its 65-year grip onthe IMF’s top job, which shouldgo to whoever is the best quali-fied candidate. But so far, only afew smaller developing countrieshave backed Carstens.

“There is not the capacity tobuild consensus among the emerg-ing market nations behind onecandidate, irrespective of who thatperson is, and besides that the Eu-ropeans feel very strongly,” saidIan Bremmer, president of politi-cal risk consultancy EurasiaGroup.

“I think it’s virtually impos-sible to unseat Lagarde at thispoint.”

ing more reinsurer deals, espe-cially in Bermuda, for a whilenow, predicting that a soft pric-ing environment would promptwell-capitalized companies tomerge.

But these deals have been rela-tively rare, in part because the“social question” — who willlead the combined company —is often not resolved.

Allied World and Transatlan-tic held one-on-one talks, whichstarted earlier this year, thesource said.

With Transatlantic’s Orlichwilling to retire, this deal an-

nouncement could prompt a rivalbidder to emerge.

Alas, the Internet buzz did notreflect the momentous occasion.“Barry Manilow is performing, andI’m three seconds from blowing myhead off,” said one tweeter. Addedanother, “Barry Manilow is just

Barry Manilow tackles fame in risky concept albumplain scary looking.”

But Manilow, whose eerilysmooth face belies his 67 years (heturns 68 on June 17), has heard itall before. After 40 years in the busi-ness as the butt of all sorts of jokes,there’s nothing that can faze him.

“I’m surprised I’m still here, Ireally am, because they were reallyhard on me, from the late-night talkshows to the press,” he said in aninterview with Reuters hours afterhis appearance on “The Talk.” “Butthe audiences, most of the times,were on my side. They were therefor me.”

But will his older-skewing fe-male fans be there for his new al-

bum “15 Minutes,” an ambitiousfollow-up to a series of covers al-bums that sent him to the upperreaches of the charts for the firsttime since his ’70s heyday?

Set for release in the UnitedStates and Canada on Tuesday (andthe UK on June 20), the rock-fla-vored project is inspired by theharsh media spotlight shone onyoung celebrities.

“It is a first at the UN GeneralAssembly,” said a diplomat whotook part in two months of hard-fought negotiations on the text.

“We are very happy about this.It is very explicit and will definitelyhelp our work to overcome resis-tance and fears about condoms,”said George Tembo, head of theAIDS/HIV department at the UNPopulation Fund.

The global need for condoms tocombat HIV and for family plan-ning has shot up from an estimated13 billion in 2004 to about 19 bil-

Tembo said the UN agency gaveout about 3.2 billion condoms in tar-get countries in 2010, up from 2.7billion the year before.

India’s Health Minister GhulamNabi Azad told the summit about the“door-to-door distribution” of maleand female condoms by thousandsof social health activists in his coun-try.

The condoms will initially bedelivered to homes in 17 Indianprovinces covering an approximatepopulation of 200 million people“and will be scaled up to cover theentire country soon,” the ministersaid.

lite information on soil moisture.They found that an area where

there are large differences in soilmoisture plays a big role in mak-ing rain. A moist area just 10 to 40kilometres (six to 25 miles) acrosscan trigger rain provided it is nextto a far drier patch.

This small-is-beautiful findingcontrasts with conventional weathermodels. These tend to calculate theprobability of rainfall on the basisof huge swathes of moist land andon the presence of rain-making fea-tures like mountain ranges.

“Rainfall is difficult to predict, par-

ticularly in regions such as the Sahelwhere huge storms can grow fromnothing in a matter of hours,” said leadauthor Chris Taylor of Britain’s Cen-tre for Ecology and Hydrology.

“We found that areas with con-trasting soil moisture can play animportant role in the creation of newstorms, a factor not accounted forin current climate models. “(...) Thiseffect is important for typically onein eight storms, in a region particu-larly prone to droughts and associ-ated crop failures.”

In areas where there are thesesharp differences in soil moisture,rainstorms are twice as likely com-pared to regions where the moisturelevel is uniform. The rain often fallsaround 10 kilometres (six miles)upwind of the moist patch, not down-wind, Taylor explained to AFP.

MIAMI – For Dirk Nowitzki, the resume is complete. He’s an NBA champion. For LeBronJames, the agonizing wait continues for at least one more year. A season that began with Miamicelebrating the signings of James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh — along with the promise ofchampionships — ended on the very same floor, with the Dallas Mavericks hoisting the title tro-phy for the first time in their franchise history after beating the Heat 105-95 on Sunday night. TheMavericks won four of the series’ last five games, a turnabout that could not have been sweeter.

never really prepared for a momentlike this. ... Neither team deservedthis championship more than theother, but Dallas earned it.”

Make no mistake: Miami lost thefinals, but the blame will be directedat James. Even he knew that afterthe way he left Cleveland with “TheDecision” and all the animus thatgenerated not just in Ohio butaround the entire league, the onlyway he could silence some criticswas with a title. “It doesn’t weighon me,” James said. “At all.”

Still, he got even more criticism— and a thinly veiled jab from hisformer owner with the Cavaliers,Dan Gilbert, who reveled in themoment on Twitter. “Mavs NEVERstopped & now entire franchise getsrings,” Gilbert wrote. “Old Lessonfor all: There are NO SHORT-CUTS. NONE.”

And the winning owner, MarkCuban, took what may be perceivedas a jab as well: “I could care lessabout the Heat,” he said.

Mavs coach Rick Carlisle joinedan elite group, those with NBA titlesas both a player and a head coach.Others on that list include the pre-sumably retired-for-good Phil Jack-son, one of Carlisle’s mentors inK.C. Jones, and Heat President PatRiley — who led Miami past Dal-las in 2006, and the mastermind ofwhat Miami did last summer bygetting James, Wade and Bosh onthe same team with an eye on be-coming a dynasty. It might still hap-pen, of course.

But even after 72 wins this sea-son, including playoffs, the Heatlost the last game. And that meansthis year was a disappointment —except to just about everyone elsein the NBA, or so it would seem.“This is a true team,” Carlisle said.“This is an old bunch. We don’t runfast or jump high. These guys hadeach other’s backs. We played theright way. We trusted the pass. Thisis a phenomenal thing for the cityof Dallas.”
