ink doodles based on the illustration work of Miroslav Šašek -- trying to combine the Sasek eye for telling details with the looseness I see in some of the urban sketching work I've been enjoying in recent years…. also looking to see how to incorporate this sort of work into cartooning

When I was very little, I owned this book and read it hundreds of times. I loved all the exotic info in it, but I was deeply fascinated by the art. TBH, I still am today.

New Bali: UN calls out Indonesia human rights abuses at ambitious tourism development - NZ Herald

Land grabs and abuses have been uncovered at the megatourism project.

Aimed at bringing 2 million foreign visitors a year along with $2.7 billion, the project was dubbed a "New Bali".

On the Island of Lombok, just east of Bali, the state-backed project has attracted investment from the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and international brands.

Among the first things to materialise is a MotoGP race track. However, the huge development has also brought scrutiny from human rights groups, who claim that the houses and livelihoods of residents have been bulldozed to make way for the luxury resorts.

The UN's Human Rights Office reports "intimidation and threats" against the Sasak indigenous peoples, many of whom have been forcibly evicted from their homes.

"Farmers and fisher folks have been expelled from their land and have endured the destruction of their houses, fields, water sources, cultural and religious sites, as the Government of Indonesia and the ITDC (Indonesia Tourism Development Corporation) groomed Mandalika to become a 'New Bali'," said Olivier De Schutter of the UN's extreme poverty and human rights programme.
