BALI WORLD CULTURE FORUM 2011, 14th - 16 of june 2011

TRI KAYA PARISUDHA: MORALITY AND ETHICS IN NEW GLOBAL CULTURE

IntroductionThe basic relation between the universe, mankind and culture is normally constructed in such an energetic, symbiotic and harmonious rhythm for the attainment of comprehensive and sustainable living. Furthermore, mankind develops and embraces technology, science, economy, politics, religion, ideology, law and culture as mean to strengthen its existence as well as to maintain integrity, order and livelihood. Seemingly, the revolution of information and communication technologies, economic exploitation, and self-centered political hegemony has deconstructed the symbiotic and harmonious plain of life, particularly in an increasingly borderless world.The notion of a borderless world (topos), a fast-paced world (chronos) and congested mindsets of a populous world close to seven billion (logos) exposes life and cultures to a variety of opportunities and threats. Culture as mode of adaptation, ground for identity, and rendition of creative lifestyle is constantly subjected to transformation, revitalization, and numerous issues and problems. Among many, the first core issue relates to a state of cultural paradox that induces conflicting ideologies and values, as well as clash of civilizations. Secondly, cultural degradation ranging from identity crisis, moral decadence to the lack of creative ingenuity also poses itself as a challenge. Thirdly, cultural anomaly comes in place, shaping social alienation, disintegration and dehumanization. These major issues infiltrate the micro-realm (personal level, microcosm), the meso-realm (ethnic and national level), and the macro-realm (universal and global level), to which renders an increasingly visible phenomenon of disharmony, disintegration and disequilibrium.This arising opportunities influenced by this borderless world phenomenon has paved the path for cross-national and intercultural communication, to which augments creativity; cross-cultural inventiveness hastening technological, economical and cultural added value. Historical and cultural findings across nations show that the dynamism of glocalization (globalism and localism) imparts promising outcomes.For instance, the archaeological, historical and cultural heritage in Bali delineates that the processes of cultural assimilation, symbiosis and acculturation have enriched the Balinese way of life. The presence of Patra Mesir (Egyptian ornaments) in traditional Balinese architecture, the artisticassimilation of Barong Landung (Bali and China), the harmonious acculturation of Tri Murti(Bali and India), the contemporary interpretation and collaboration of Balinese gamelan by various performing arts group such as Sekar Jaya USA; all demonstrate inspiring and ingeniousintercultural bond. These outcomes, to which are founded onTri Kaya Parisudha (the truthfulness of the mind, righteousness of manner and inventiveness of living) truly revitalizes and liberates logic, aesthetic, and spirituality.

Theme and ConceptThe theme of Bali WCF 2011 is Tri Kaya Parisudha: Morality And Ethics In New Global Culture.This central theme emanates from Tri Kaya Parisudha, a Balinese local wisdom that extends a universal viewpoint about pure and righteous code of conduct.As an integral part of the Indonesian archipelago, the unique Balinese culture is founded by notable conceptsof Tri Hita Karana (a fundamental understanding about the harmonious and balanced relationsof man to God, to other fellow humans, and to the environment) and Desa, Kala, Patra(revered philosophy governing the diversity of space, time and mindset), to which both shines astuteness to Tri Kaya Parisudha, as delineation of cultural creativity.

Bali tourism gets OK back from US gov`t

Bali tourism, after having been in the dark shadows of terrorist activities, may soon be on the road to recovery. The US government has endorsed the Indonesian tourism capital by lifting its almost decade-long travel advisory.

The move is expected to have a domino effect on Bali's tourism, with other countries following the US action.

"The US government has lifted the warning due to objective improvements made by the Indonesian government in its current security situation," said an official statement from the US embassy in Indonesia, emailed to media organizations.

In 2000, the US State Department issued a travel warning following several bombings in the country's capital, Jakarta.

The twin Bali bombings in 2002 resulted in the death of more than 240 foreign tourists, mostly Australians on holiday in the island who died as a result of the explosions, blamed on the regional Jemaah Islamiyah terrorist network.

Every year since then both the Australian and Indonesian governments have held a remembrance ceremony in Bali as a mark of respect to those who died in the bombings. However, Australia, which claims 88 Australian tourists were killed in the first Bali bombing, is yet to lift its travel advisory.

The Indonesian government has since then prosecuted and convicted winning praise from the international community due to Bali's attractions as a holiday destination.

"The Indonesian government has disrupted, arrested and prosecuted numerous terrorist elements," said US Ambassador Cameron Hume, adding there has been "significant" improvements in the country's security situation.

Ambassador Hume said he expects more US businessmen, tourists and scholars to visit Indonesia following Sunday's announcement, "helping to expand trade, tourism and educational exchange between both countries."

Increased security precautions since the bombings include sweeping cars for bombs using metal detectors at hotels, shopping malls and other public buildings.

In a statement following the US announcement, Dino Djala, spokesman for Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, said the US move is a very good and positive sign. "It will help remove psychological barriers that have prevented Americans and others from going to Indonesia."

Major General Ansyaad Mbai, Indonesia's anti-terror official, was quoted as saying, "It will push us to be more effective in handling security matters. The US decision would not slow our efforts to battle extremists."
