Bali New Years traffic - its drives me crazy!

 The traffic situation in Bali is a topic that never goes out of circulation. One thing though, this Christmas / New Years the traffic itself is in danger of going out of circulation due to complete gridlock. You've seen it before, holiday tourists, busy locals, domestic tourists all converging on Bali. In the past though motorbikes have been able to scoot by on the inside and releave some of the pressure. Now in Kuta area the traffic situation is such a mess that even the bikes have nowhere to go.

One wonders if like a frog inside a pot of warm water at what point will the tourists say 'enough is enough'. If like a frog they will simply get used to it and stay in the pot until they get cooked then they'll get what they deserve, as will the Bali tourism industry for developing hotels, shopping and nightlife establisments with no thought to water, garbage, sewage, transport and effects on culture.

Tip: If you want a good NYE in Bali stay away from the Kuta area.....it SUCKS!!!!

7th Annual ASC Sanctioned Monsoon Mayhem International Surf Challenge Returns to Desaru Beach in Malaysia from January 4-6

7^th Annual ASC Sanctioned Monsoon Mayhem International Surf Challenge Returns to Desaru Beach in Malaysia from January 4-6

21 December 2012, Kuta-Bali:  The 7^th annual Monsoon Mayhem International Surf Challenge returns to Desaru Beach in Malaysia from 4-6 January 2013 as a 2-star Asian Surfing Championship event, which will draw both professional and amateur surfers from all over South East Asia including Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan to compete for the $14,000 MYR ($4,600 USD) in total prize money and ASC championship points, and just to have heaps of fun at this unique event.

Located just east of Johor Baru in Malaysia and the closest surfing beach to Singapore, Desaru Beach is a white sand strip of beachbreak that can offer up peaceful glassy conditions as well as maniacally thumping closeouts during the monsoon season, so what will be on offer each year is anybody’s guess. Mother Nature is a fickle beast and each year does her best to make sure that the event lives up to its “Mayhem” moniker. 

There will be surfing competitions in four categories, Men’s Open, Women’s Open Masters (35 years of age and older), and Bodyboard), as well the Slide Jam Longboarding Competition, which saw tremendous success last year and is expected to draw skaters from all over Malaysia and Singapore to compete for the $1,000 RM first place prize.

The brainchild of Nazir “Ajill” Salleh of Bigfoot Industries, a surf and skate product retailer in Singapore, the Monsoon Mayhem event has continued to grow in popularity each year as a surf, skate, and music event. This is the third year the surfing competition has been sanctioned by the ASC, and it looks to be another exciting event drawing surfers, skaters, and their fans to the South East Malaysian beach once again.

For more information and details about the Monsoon Mayhem, how to get there from Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, as well as accommodation options see the Bigfoot Industries (BGFT)Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/events/403742169700962/?ref=ts&fref=ts

or just send an email with your inquiries to bfinternational@gmail.com.

The Monsoon Mayhem event is supported by the Malaysian state of Johor as both a tourism promotion activity and in support of the growth of surfing in Malaysia.

Monsoon Mayhem 2013 is organized by Bigfoot Industries, JOHO and Boomslang, sanctioned by the Asian Surfing Championships with official event partners Tourism Malaysia, Tourism Johor, Pejabat Memeterian Pelancongan Negeri Johor, Kejora, sponsored by UNKL347, Fatimah Mohsin The Wedding Gallery, and Light Connections and is supported by the Surfing Association of Singapore, Johor Surfing Association, and MRB.

The official accommodation for the event is the Pulai Desaru Beach Resort and Spa, check them out at http://www.pulaidesarubeach-johor.com
