Bali Tribune memuat satu halaman penuh tentang Bali Blogger Community.
Tentu saja aku senang masuk koran. Terima kasih untuk Bali Tribune yang sudah membahas komunitas kami hingga satu halaman penuh. Kalau di Bali Post, mungkin kami harus bayar sampai jutaan. Untungnya ini tidak perlu bayar. Tulisannya juga asyik karena mengulas profil komunitas plus tiga anggotanya.
Akhirnya, aku menemukan lagi tulisan reflektif dengan bahasa ringan ala Bre Redana. Pemikir dan penulis kajian kebudayaan (cultural studies) ini orang yang meracuniku lewat tulisan-tulisannya tentang gaya hidup sejak 10 tahun lalu. Selalu nyentil dengan bahasa ringan.
Tulisan ini ada di edisi cetak namun aku temukan pula di Kompas Tekno. Selamat membaca dan berefleksi ria.
Ketika kekerasan atas nama agama kian akrab, tulisan ini sangat relevan.
Sebab, aku masih yakin bahwa Islam yang aku kenal tidaklah diwakili orang-orang berteriak Allahu Akbar sambil membunuh orang meski berbeda keyakinan. Karena itu, tulisan Syafiq Basri Assegaff, Dosen Ilmu Komunikasi dan Peneliti di Pusat Studi Islam dan Kenegaraan (PSIK) Universitas Paramadina, di Kompas ini sangat penting untuk disimpan dan disebarluaskan.
A dark cloud glided slowly over Tulamben beach that quiet morning. Two local women walked along the shoreline carrying scuba tanks on their heads.
They belonged to a group of local porters, who carry all the heavy equipment for scuba divers.
Tulamben is one of the island’s most favorite diving spots. Around 20 meters from the shoreline, the famous World War II’s wreck of the USAT Liberty lies on Tulamben’s sandy bottom, waiting for the divers.

Drug users in Asia and Pacific regions face discrimination and limited access to proper medical treatment since many of these countries still regard human rights as minor problems, a forum was told Thursday.
“It requires comprehensive policy changes at the national, regional and international levels to enable these persons to receive needed medications and treatments,” said a speaker in a forum on Injecting Drug Users (IDU), with the theme Reform: Toward Human Rights Drug Policy, in Sanur, as part of the 9th International Congress on AIDS in the Asia-Pacific.
