24-Hour Room Service: St Regis Bali Resort, Nusa Dua, Bali



The Independent, 20 December 2008.

It's hard to think of anywhere in the world that, mile for mile, has more luxury spas and resorts than Bali. Nor anywhere where they are more prolific than in Nusa Dua, a gated beach development on the southern tip of the island, built in the 1970s. So any new addition to such a glut would have to be pretty impressive to earn its keep.

The St Regis Bali Resort, which opened in September, is certainly impressive. As part of Starwood Hotels' most prestigious brand – which also comprises the Lanesborough in London – you wouldn't expect anything less. The colonnaded driveway and vast marble lobby are almost daunting.

The main pool isn't referred to simply as a pool but as a lagoon, which is apt given its size. Water pumped around a network of fountains provides a constant background tinkle throughout the grounds. Golf buggies weave around the complex, ferrying guests from one prone position in the spa to their next on the beach.

But gargantuan pools and elaborate water features aside, the resort is modest when compared to some of its sprawling neighbours, with 123 luxury rooms and two residences. The details are no less impressive in the sleeping quarters. Impressive touches include a traditional Balinese wedding crown hanging on the wall of each room, and many of the suites and villas have their own private landscaped gardens and pools. But if you don't have the luxury of your own pool, you can wallow back at the vast lagoon, stopping for shade under a thatched straw bale (Balinese pavilion).

The Remède spa is set in a quiet corner, surrounded by a Koi Carp pool. The range of treatments takes a Balinese theme, while other facilities include a yoga centre. After my soporific massage, I was revived with a pot of chocolate tea.

More culinary treats await at the hotel's signature restaurant, Kayuputi, which serves modern Asian fusion cuisine, overlooks the beach and is surrounded by a pool on two sides. White day beds with billowing white curtains are staggered on descending tiers down to the pool. The striking white and glass décor (Kayuputi means white wood) still looks pristine, but it is early days.

Breakfast, which is served in the main restaurant Boneka, is a buffet without end. A stream of staff approaches with offerings, from dim sum, pancakes and pistachio Danish pastries, to "Egg Nouvelle" (a lobster ragout-filled egg shell with parsley cream and salmon roe).

The only fault I could find is that the St Regis was clearly conceived and designed pre-credit crunch. The whole concept, with its extravagance and emphasis on luxury, now seems, well, just a little unfashionable. And when I visited, admittedly in the late November low-season, occupancy was far from full.

LOCATION

St Regis Bali Resort, Kawasan Pariwisata, Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia (00 62 361 8478 111; stregis.com/bali). The resort is situated towards the southern end of Nusa Dua, next to the Bali Golf and Country Club. If you make one excursion from Nusa Dua, try to take the 20-minute cab ride across to Ulu Watu (100,000 Rupiah /£7) one of the world's most hallowed surfing spots and site of the 11th-century temple Pura Luhur Ulu Watu (although see Warning of the Week, page 9).

Time from international airport: The resort is a 20-minute ride from Denpasar airport; a taxi costs around 95,000 Rupiah (£6). There are few public transport links from the airport.

COMFORTABLE?

The style of the rooms is an Asian-Balinese hybrid, more "eclectic traveller" than minimalist. Dark wood furniture and floors contrast with a colour palette of lime green and burnt orange. Various artefacts and books are scattered throughout the rooms, including a Balinese-inspired carved wood piece which hangs above the bed. All rooms have a writing desk and spacious private balcony.

Freebies: Remède spa toiletries, daily newspaper, coffee and tea-making facilities and slippers.

Keeping in touch: Wi-Fi and high speed internet access is available for a fee in all the rooms and there is a business centre if needed. Each room has a 42-inch flat-screen TV with DVD player and a Bose iPod docking station. There's also a flat-screen TV in each of the marble bathrooms.

THE BOTTOM LINE

The standard St Regis suite is US $858 (£572) a night, including breakfast. Rates dip slightly during low season, to around $514 (£343).

I'm not paying that: Accommodation in Nusa Dua is more expensive than other parts of Bali, but many of the big resorts offer special packages. The Westin Resort, Nusa Dua (00 62 361 771908; starwoodhotels.com) is currently offering doubles from $194 (£129) a night.

Bali to expand seaweed cultivation to deeper sea

The Jakarta Post December 27, 2008.
Bali administration will expand seaweed cultivation by constructing seaweed plantations in the deeper zones of the island's offshore areas, a senior official said recently.

Seaweed cultivation has became a primary source of income for thousands of Balinese living in the island's coastal region.

Traditionally, seaweed is cultivated in plantations that lie not far from the beach line.

"Its about time we develop seaweed plantations in offshore areas around one kilometers away from the beach line," said the head of Bali Fishery and Maritime Agency's cultivation section, I Ketut Rai.

He said Bali had a total of 9.6 square kilometers of offshore area that was suitable for seaweed cultivation. The area lies in Nusa Penida island, Nusa Lembongan island, Sawangan in Nusa Dua and Denpasar.

"All these years, seaweed cultivation has been mainly conducted at offshore areas near or next to beaches," he added.

The plantations mainly comprise of arrays of bamboo or iron stakes driven into the sand. The stakes were connected with ropes on which the farmers tied the seeds of seaweeds.

The plantation of seeds, the maintenance of the plantations and the harvests heavily depended on the tidal movements. Only when the water receded, Rai said, the farmers could plant, prune and harvest the seaweed.

Seaweed cultivation at deeper sea, Rai pointed out, had slightly different characteristics. The plantation would mainly made of an array of floating rafts, on which the ropes of seaweed seeds were fastened.

"The operations of this plantation are not determined by tidal movements. The farmers will be able to maintain the plantations even during high tide," he added.

The expansion was necessary to cope with the markets' increasing demand.

"So far, no matter how much seaweed our farmers harvested, the markets have always absorbed it," Rai said.

Japan, China and Taiwan are the major markets for Bali's seaweeds.

The head of Bali Fishery and Maritime Agency's statistics section, Ni Ketut Adiani, said Bali had an estimated maximum production capacity of more than 152 tons seaweed per year.

The actual production capacity, she admitted, was still far below the estimated one.

The current price of seaweed, she said, was relatively stable. Farmers could get Rp 23,000 for each kilogram of dried seaweed. Harvest took place once in every 40 days.

"By expanding the cultivation to deeper seas we hope to increase the production capacity, thus, boosting their revenues and mitigating the chronic problem of poverty that haunts our coastal regions," Rai said.

Cook Islands Host Offers Thanks

To all the generous Global Volunteers:

I have been and will always be mindful of the importance and impact of the presence and performances of the volunteers, not only in community groups (NGOs) but in government departments as well. CIANGO has been one of the many organisations that has truly benefited from the Global Volunteers, in establishing a data base for the organisation. This data base will always remind us of the Volunteers who worked so hard on that, and I cannot express how much we appreciate and will always be thankful to the Volunteers for such a remarkable and memorable service to CIANGO. God bless those Volunteers!

The works of the Volunteers at the Creative Centre, Punanga Tauturu, Te Kainga and in the schools and in welfare organisations, in the Library, etc, cannot go unmentioned. There may not have been much publicity in some of the works that the Volunteers have undertaken, but that has been very much appreciated and highly recognised by the recipients of those services.

While there is so much yet to be told about the services of the Volunteers, I wish to remind all Volunteers that, we, the NGOs hold special respect for the services rendered by the Volunteers to the various community bodies, and the nation as a whole. We value the good work of the Volunteers and hope that this is not the end of it all. There are still yet a need for Volunteers, in the hospital, in schools and in welfare centres around the island. May be we need to advertise more about the services of the Volunteers, for the wider community to make use of these voluntary services.

(At the same time, this will (hopefully) help to educate our own people to offer their services voluntarily sometimes and not to think of money all the time.)

CIANGO has been very previledged and happy to be your host in the Cook Islands. Welcome all, any time. Thank you once again, may God bless you all with a Very Merry Xmas and a Happy and Joyous New Year.

Cara menjalin hubungan baik dengan klien

Pernahkah saat anda menelpon klien seolah-olah pikiran terpecah pada hal-hal lain. Karena memang secermat apapun kata-kata yang anda pilih tapi nada suara anda mampu mengungkapkan emosi atau perasaan anda yang sebenarnya. Hanya dari cara anda mengungkapkan kata 'halo' saja, klien yang bicara di telpon dengan anda bisa merasakan emosi dibalik suara anda.

Dalam dunia bisnis atau profesional, bisa menelpon atau memiliki ketrampilan menelpon yang baik dapat membantu membangun hubungan yang lebih kuat dengan semua orang. Saat bicara dengan customer atau klien, nada bicara sama sekali tidak boleh terdengar kesal atau marah. Mesti kekesalan atau kemarahan anda bukan tertuju kepada mereka, tekanan atau nada suara anda bisa menimbulkan kesan kasar.

Hal ini kemungkinan anda akan kehilangan klien atau customer karena tidak ada orang yang senang berurusan dengan orang yang kasar. Cara bicara di telepon sama pentingnya dengan bicara tatap muka. Untuk itu ada baiknya anda simak beberapa langkah yang bisa anda lakukan agar hubungan dengan klien tetap terjalin baik, simak berikut ini.

Bicara dengan penuh semangat. Dari awal hingga akhir pembicaraan, coba ungkapkan antusiasme anda. Tunjukkan bahwa anda memperhatikan orang yang sedang bicara dengan anda. Tidak perlu bersikap berlebihan atau sangat gembira. Cukup bangkitkan sikap positif saja dan orang yang bicara dengan anda akan bersikap yang sama atau tertular dengan gaya bicara anda.

Senyum. Meski orang di seberang sana tidak bisa melihat anda tersenyum tapi mereka bisa merasakan senyuman anda. Senyuman di wajah akan menciptakan senyum di suara. Cara ini bekerja, meski di saat perasaan anda sedang kacau. Cobalah anda letakkan cermin di meja untuk mengingatkan anda agar tersenyum saat mengangkat telepon. Jika tugas atau pekerjaan anda mengharuskan anda bicara di telepon sepanjang hari, tidak ada salahnya mengikuti langkah untuk tetap tersenyum.

Ucapkan satu kata kunci. Hal ini merupakan kata yang dapat membantu anda mengakses kondisi emosional yang anda inginkan. Sering-sering ucapkan kata ini dan fokus secara mendalam pada artinya seperti kata cinta atau sayang. Anda akan mendengar suara anda menjadi lebih lembut dan hangat saat berbicara.

Ciptakan suasana lewat nada bicara. Cobalah perhatikan apakah nada dan suara bicara anda mengesankan anda antusias, bersikap positif atau pembicaraan anda murni bisnis. Nada dan perubahan suara dapat menciptakan kesan dan membantu orang di seberang sana memahami apa yang anda katakan kepada mereka.

Ucapkan sapaan atau kata pembuka yang hangat dan menyenangkan. Anda bisa mengucapkan selamat pagi, siang atau lainnya sebagai pembuka yang mengundang orang untuk berbicara. Jangan membuat orang yang menghubungi anda merasa mereka merepotkan atau mengganggu anda. Jika anda sangat sibuk, minta tolong orang lain bicara dengan anda atau biarkan voice mail anda yang jawab.

Ubah bahasa tubuh. Kondisi fisiologi atau bahasa tubuh dapat mempengaruhi kondisi mental. Jadi ubahlah fisiologi anda dan lihatlah hasil yang akan anda dapatkan.

Salam penutup yang manis. Akhir percakapan dengan cara yang manis agar memberi kesan baik kepada klien atau customer anda.

Hindari terminologi perusahaan atau tehnik. Saat bicara dengan customer, sebisa mungkin hindari istilah atau jargon tehnik atau terminologi perusahaan. Mereka mungkin tidak mengerti, anda mungkin pernah mengalami hal seperti ini. Orang yang bicara dengan anda di telepon menjelaskan sesuatu kepada anda dan anda sama sekali tidak mengerti apa yang dikatakannya. Istilah tehnik atau kata-kata khusus di dunia industri dapat membuat customer merasa tidak enak. Mereka mungkin merasa bodoh karena tidak mengerti apa yang anda katakan. Atau mereka merasa putus asa dan menjadi tidak sabar.

Meletakkan bunga segar di tempat yang dapat anda lihat dan menikmati keindahannya ternyata mampu membangkitkan semangat. Bunga segar juga memiliki khasiat therapeutic untuk kesehatan sehingga berpengaruh pada nada suara.

Jangan marah pada customer meski customer marah. Tidak selalu mudah untuk tetap tenang saat menghadapi customer yang marah pada sesuatu yang di luar wewenang atau bukan kesalahan anda. Jika customer mengeluh dan marah maka biarkan mereka menyampaikan isi hatinya. Ajukan pertanyaan yang menunjukkan anda memperhatikan mereka dan berusaha menjadi pendengar yang baik.

Transfer telepon sekali saja dan jangan di hold. Jika mentransfer telepon kepada seseorang yang lain, pastikan orang tersebut ada di tempat. Jangan lakukan hold, transfer, hold, transfer secara terus menerus kepada customer karena akan membuat mereka jengkel. Sebenarnya ada 2 alasan untuk meng-hold-kan telepon masuk yaitu untuk transfer ke seseorang yang lain atau untuk mencari informasi.

Jalan cepat sebentar di luar ruangan akan membuat anda dapat bernafas secara lebih dalam, melepaskan ketegangan yang menimbun di dalam. Hanya ganti atau mengubah pemandangan dapat membantu mengubah kondisi pikiran.

Rekam suara anda dalam sebuah kaset. Hal ini dilakukan untuk memperbaiki nada suara atau gaya bicara di telepon, terlebih dahulu anda harus mengetahui bagaimana anda berbicara atau nada suara anda. Dengan begitu anda bisa mendengarkan cara bicara anda di kaset dan anda bisa mendapatkan kesan akurat orang lain terhadap nada suara anda. Mengetahui hal ini mampu memotivasi anda untuk melakukan perubahan produktif atau positif yang dapat menimbulkan kesan yang berpengaruh dan baik. Semoga berhasil. twp

Bali Food: Various kinds of "Lawar"

Descriptions:

Lawar is one of Bali’s most famous local dishes. Made from pig’s blood and spices, together with an assortment of other goodies, lawar can be found in every village in Bali.

What is Lawar?
Balinese cuisine has many signature dishes including babi guling and bebek betutu. One of the local dishes that all Balinese love is lawar, with every family making lawar at special occassions such as ceremonies. Attending a wedding ceremony in Bali, foreigner might be asked “Bani ngajeng lawar?” (“Are you brave enough to eat lawar?”). The ingredients of lawar as well as the taste mean westerners often aren’t immediately taken by it.

Ingredients in lawar:
Balinese traditional spices such as kunyit, shrimp paste, salt and ground pepper, galangal and other roots; grated coconut, green beans, boiled young jackfruit and occasionally, singkong leaves, all chopped up and blended together.

Meats used in lawar
The meat distinguishes the type of lawar – chicken, duck, beef, pork, turtle, or even dragonfly. Although it is considered a delicacy at ceremony time, fortunately turtle lawar is becoming less and less common. Dragonfly lawar is most unusual because it takes so much time and money because you have to use so many dragonflies to fill you up! Most lawar has raw blood mixed with it but not all Balinese like this and many prefer their lawar vegetarian.

Lawar & ceremonies:
On the day of a ceremony Balinese people rise early to prepare food. The men will take care of the sate, the women chopping away preparing vegetables. Men are also responsible for the lawar and sit in a circle, chopping, chatting, and mashing, generally socializing. There’s no rush in Balinese ceremonies and the men enjoy chatting, sipping a coffee of some arak, while making the lawar.

Where to get lawar:
Lawar can be spicy and very salty, so a small portion is best for your first time. The nasi bungkus (rice to go) that is sold on the street from a motorbike, in small packets for 2,000rp sometimes contains lawar. Glory Restaurant in Legian is one of the places you can get lawar, along with many other authentic Balinese dishes (Sundays is the Balinese buffet).

If you go to a Balinese person’s village tasting lawar and sipping some arak will earn you some ‘bule points’.

Fried Noodles

Usually iridescent pink in colour, noodles in Bali are served for breakfast, lunch or dinner. For successful noodles, you must first arm yourself with a good wok and cooker, either gas or electric. Then prepare all your ingredients and set up your work space. Once you’re ready, the cooking process doesn’t take so long and it’s always worth the effort.

Serves 4
250 gm. egg noodles 1 bunch choi sum
¼ small cabbage 1 medium carrot
3 tbs. oil 3-4 tbs. stock or water
60 gms. Any meat 5 shallots
7 garlic cloves 1-2 large red chilli
½ a small leek 1 tsp. soy sauce
2 tsp. kecap manis 1 tsp. tomato paste (optl)
1 tsp. fish sauce ½ tsp. maggi sauce (Raja Rasa)
½ tsp. Black pepper sea salt to taste

Boil the noodles as instructed on the packet. Drain or leave overnight in the fridge. Slice the meat into 1 cm. chunks.
Slice the garlic, shallots, leek and large red chilli very finely.
12Slice the cabbage into ½ cm. strips and julienne the carrot. Chop the choi sum into chunks. Heat the oil a wok over a medium heat. You can use a higher heat if you’re a confident Chinese-style cook. Fry the meat until cooked. If there is no excess water from the chicken, add the shallot and garlic and cook for twenty seconds together. Otherwise, set the meat aside, remove the oil and wipe the wok with a paper towel. Fry the onion and garlic in 3 tbsp. of fresh oil. Add chilli and leek, stirring and mixing constantly for twenty seconds. Add all the vegetables. Mix and stir for 2 minutes. If necessary add some of the water or the stock. Bring to the boil. Add the noodles with the sauces. At this point you may need to turn off the heat to mix them thoroughly. Turn the heat on and toss for another minute or two. Tongs might be handy at this point. Check seasonings. Serve topped with fried onion.

Bali Discovery (Anjing Kurap)

Bali Discovery Tours in Sanur also trade as "Bali Mice" (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions); they operate unlawfully and are probably the nastiest travel agents in Indonesia. PT Bali Discovery Tours' main director John M / Jack Daniels is much more a rat than a mouse in my honest opinion, but I'd say the later applies too. Bali Discovery Tours / Bali Mice trade unlawfully in that they commit tax and service charge fraud, plus work with unlicensed (illegal) villas while Jack "Anjing Kurap" Daniels defames legal villa operators who refuse to do business with him in his email ezine of hate and lies called the "Bali Update"; "Anjing Kurap" is a serious Indonesian insult literally meaning "Ringworm infested (street) dog" like you see left. It was one of Bali Discovery Tours' lawyers (Anggia Lubis) who "introduced" me to this insult after I refused her request for a "donation".

The more I found out about how Bali Discovery Tours operated, the more I discovered they are anti-Balinese Indonesian travel agents actually deserving of a eminently obvious paronomasia of their company name.

For details on how PT Bali Discovery Tours / Bali MICE was likely founded with unlawfully obtained money (see the report on their principle director: Jack Daniels Bali).

PT Bali Discovery Tours' main director John M / Jack Daniels is much more a rat than a mouse in my honest opinion, but I'd say the later applies too. Bali Discovery Tours / Bali Mice trade unlawfully in that they commit tax and service charge fraud, plus work with unlicensed (illegal) villas while Jack "Anjing Kurap" Daniels defames legal villa operators who refuse to do business with him in his email ezine of hate and lies called the "Bali Update"; "Anjing Kurap" is a serious Indonesian insult literally meaning "Ringworm infested (street) dog" like you see left. It was one of Bali Discovery Tours' lawyers (Anggia Lubis) who "introduced" me to this insult after I refused her request for a "donation".

The more I found out about how Bali Discovery Tours operated, the more I discovered they are anti-Balinese Indonesian travel agents actually deserving of a eminently obvious paronomasia of their company name.

For details on how PT Bali Discovery Tours / Bali MICE was likely founded with unlawfully obtained money (see the report on their principle director: Jack Daniels Bali).

Bali Discovery Tours trade unlawfully and dishonorably
