Bali (local) Kite Festival 2010 in Bali, Indonesia

Really long time not visiting my own blog, I'm surprise that there're people visiting this blog ! Thank you very much!!! I feel so sorry that I didn't updated my blog.. So here it is my first post after months !

In July 23-25th 2010, there'll be Bali Kite Festival in Sanur Beach, Bali Island (province), Indonesia. Below are some photos from last year Bali Kite Festival



Traditional giant kites (4 meters in width and almost 10 meters in length) are made and flown competitively by teams from the villages (banjar) of Denpasar. The event is a seasonal religious festival intended to send a message to the Hindu Gods to create abundant crops and harvests. Bebean (fish-shaped), Janggan (bird-shaped) and Pecukan (leaf-shaped) are three traditional kites flown during this kite festival. The kites are flown by teams of 10 or more adult kitefliers. The Janggan form has a broad flowing cloth tail that can reach more than 10 meters in length !

A gamelan orchestra plays music throughout the festival. The festival attracts many visitors and international kite-fliers, along with many local spectators. 

What a great team building events for your groups to get involved in?

Merry Christmas 2009


Yap, Merry Christmas everybody !
Give thanks to God that have blessed us until now and may God filled this world with joy, blessing, peace, and LOVE. 

One song that pop up in my mind now is "Heal The World" by Michael Jackson. I don't know why.. But for me, this world need a miracle healing. So why not ask Him to heal this world. People said that Christmas is full of miracle, right?


Here, I never put any Christmas decoration as I'm the only one who is Christian in my house. So now I'm thinking.. What item that you think the most related to Christmas? For me, the most related to Christmas is '25th December' and 'St. Claus'. How about you? Read more!

Indonesia in style

When browsing on internet about percentage of people according to their age, job, religion, etc, I found something interesting in Wikipedia. It says, muslim is the second largest religion after christian (muslim 21% and christian 33%). Believe it or not, 62% of the world's muslim live in Asia and and 15.6% live in Indonesia. How many muslims are in Indonesia? 202 billion ! Over 88% citizen of Indonesia are muslim.

While I read that article, I found the reason why many clothes in Indonesia similar to muslim outfit. But the different is the pattern on it. Most of muslim clothes (Indonesia = baju muslim) in Indonesia has a little traditional pattern called Batik. Enrich with batik pattern, it will be difficult to find the same one in another country as batik is the traditional pattern of Indonesia declared by UNESCO.

This kind of clothes has become a style / outfit in Indonesia. Sometimes people says, "I want to buy clothes that looked like muslim style (read = busana muslim)." even though he/she is not muslim. It's interesting to know somehow percentage religion in one country can affect its culture also, isn't it?

How about you? Do you know what Batik is?
