62 Award Presentation Night for graduates of Palm Beach (Qld) SLSC instructional tour at Waja SLSC, Kuta Beach, Bali, Indonesia. September 1977

 

I forget the name of the man to whom Gil Graham is presenting an award. He was a character though and took me for a ride on his 100 cc motorcycle. I found the road rules quite interesting. Give way to anything larger and drive anything smaller into the ditch. I asked which side of the road Indonesians drove on and received a shrug and the response "It depends." That made sense. If the truck was on the right you went to the left. If the Chevrolet Impala was on the left you went to the right. If the road was blocked you went anywhere you could. Quite sensible really. Years later I was informed that Indonesians drive on the left of the road as per India, Japan, Australia and elsewhere. I assume that this is the case but is definitely subject to local interpretation.

 

I was still optimistically clicking away with my Agfa pocket camera despite lack of flash.
