All that invigorates Bali is the ‘Chinese circus’. Certain resort lobbies, Ricky Utomo of the Bvlgari Resort chuckles, “are like a midnight sale” pulsating with Chinese tourists in voluble haberdashery, high-heeled, almost reeling into lotus ponds they hazard selfies on. The Bvlgari, whose imperious walls and august prices discourage the Chinese, say they had to terminate afternoon tea packages (another Balinese phenomenon) — can’t have Chinese tourists assail their precipiced parapets for selfies. The Chinese wed in Bali. Indians honeymoon there. That said, the isle inspires little romance. In the Viceroy’s gazebo, overlooking Ubud’s verdure, a honeymooning Indian girl, exuding from her décolleté, contuses her anatomy à la Bollywood starlet, but her husband keeps romancing his iPhone while a Chinese man bandies a soft toy to entertain his wife who shuts tight her eyes in disdain as Mum watches on in wonderment. When untoward circumstances remove us to remote and neglected West Bali National Park, where alone on the island you spot deer, two varieties, extraordinarily drinking salt water, we stumble upon Bali’s most enthralling hideaway and meet Bali’s savviest man, general manager Gusti at Plataran Menjangan (an eco-luxury resort in a destination unbothered about

    THESIS REPORT Mapping a Policy-making Process The case of Komodo National Park, Indonesia Novalga Aniswara MSc Tourism, Society & Environment Wageningen University and Research A Master’s thesis Mapping a policy-making process: the case of Komodo National Park, Indonesia Novalga Aniswara 941117015020 Thesis Code: GEO-80436 Supervisor: prof.dr. Edward H. Huijbens Examiner: dr. ir. Martijn Duineveld Wageningen University and Research Department of Environmental Science Cultural Geography Chair Group Master of Science in Tourism, Society and Environment i ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Tourism has been an inseparable aspect of my life, starting with having a passion for travelling until I decided to take a big step to study about it back when I was in vocational high school. I would say, learning tourism was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life considering opportunities and experiences which I encountered on the process. I could recall that four years ago, I was saying to myself that finishing bachelor would be my last academic-related goal in my life. However, today, I know that I was wrong. With the fact that the world and the industry are progressing and I raise my self-awareness that I know nothing, here I am today taking my words back and as I am heading towards the final chapter from one of the most exciting journeys in my life – pursuing a master degree in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Never say never. In completing this thesis, I received countless assistances and helps from people that I would like to mention. Firstly, I would not be at this point in my life without the blessing and prayers from my parents, grandma, and family.

  • Diving and Snorkelling in Silfra Fissure a Handbook to Prepare You for Your Adventure
    DIVING AND SNORKELLING IN SILFRA FISSURE A HANDBOOK TO PREPARE YOU FOR YOUR ADVENTURE The Silfra fissure is one of the most amazing places in the world. Diving or Snorkelling through the crystal clear glacial water is an experience best ex- plained by actually taking the plunge. However, there are a few important things that you need to know in order to prepare yourself for this adventure. Also, this is not an activity for everyone, and it is important that you are aware of the risks and challenges involved. DIVING Diving in the Silfra fissure is one for the bucket list! The water in Silfra is 2 degrees C and all dives are per- formed in a dry suit. It is required that you have documented training and experience in cold water dry suit diving in order to enjoy this adventure. Dry suit experience For diving in the Silfra fissure, you need to have previous experience in dry suit diving. Your dive guide will ask to see your Dry suit certification card, or a logbook showing that you have completed a minimum of 10 previous dry suit dives (signed by a dive professional). You need to have dived in a dry suit within the last 2 years to ensure that your skills are up to date. If failing to show us either certification or logbook you will not be allowed to dive. Good buoyancy control is essential in order to safely dive Silfra. The water is up to +30 meters deep and there is no descent line to use. For your own safety, the dive guide will not allow divers demonstrating poor buoyan- cy control to complete the dive.
