09 Official Reception for Palm Beach (Qld) SLSC instructional team at Waja SLSC, Kuta Beach, Bali, Indonesia. September 1977.
An exception to the male and military occupation of the front seats was the lady from the Indonesian Red Cross. It was the Red Cross as it happens, rather than the Red Crescent. Historically, Hindu Bali had rather at times unfriendly relations with the Muslim majority Islands to its east and west. Perhaps a Red Cross was more palatable therefore than a Red Crescent?
The lady was very friendly once away from the generals. She marched up to me smiling hugely and shook my hand. We struggled to communicate verbally but had little difficulty generating good will through gesture and the few words we had in common.
