It is adapting to the changes in my daily life and prioritising self-care. I feel healthy when my body is cared for and my mind is not filled with negative thoughts. Being healthy allows me to do the things I love with the people I care for. ]]> 2023-10-05 13:06:09 UTC https://padlet.com/raisyafiskandar/f24sqjf8okmta8jb/wish/2733895066 Traditional Indonesian Art raisyafiskandar https://padlet.com/raisyafiskandar/f24sqjf8okmta8jb/wish/2733928480 Batik is a form of art that involves the creation of intricate patterns and details using wax-resisting dyeing techniques. 

Batik Solo is its unique art that differs from other batik designs. Solo is a city in Indonesia known for its rich heritage in batik and is a significant production city for batik artistry. Batik Solo differs from other batik designs by using earthy colours such as blue, brown, yellow and white and complex geometric and floral patterns (Wonderful Indonesia, 2020).

This includes recognising cultural impacts on healthcare decisions and choices made by people from immigrant or refugee backgrounds. I have improved my understanding of what it means to be culturally inclusive and realised what it means to be self-aware of my response to patients of different backgrounds. This is an essential skill for me in the workplace because being culturally competent helps bridge cultural gaps and improve the overall quality of care between nurse and patient, allowing therapeutic care to be practised easily.

Syria is currently in the middle of a civil war that has been going on for over ten years. Due to the ongoing conflicts in the country, it has turned into somewhat of a lawless zone where kidnapping, terrorism, and human trafficking occur. Due to the disputes, Syria has received humanitarian support from nations such as Australia. People from Syria were among the top four nationalities for which Australia issued 5,947 refugee and humanitarian visas in 2020–21 (Australian Red Cross). Tuberculosis, malaria, and schistosomiasis are three typical health issues expected in persons arriving from Syria, according to the Australian Refugee Health Practice Guide.

Tuberculosis (TB):
Tuberculosis is a respiratory infection affecting a person's lungs and other body parts. Immigrants born in high-incidence countries such as Syria are more likely to contract TB due to inhalation exposure to aerosolised droplets. One treatment available to Syrian refugees who have contracted TB is to have a medical evaluation, which can lead to hospital treatments.

Malaria:
Malaria is a hazardous disease due to a mosquito bite. Although the WHO has taken action to reduce the chances of contracting malaria in Syria, there is still a chance of receiving the infection. If tested positive, possible treatments would include a hospital referral.

Schistosomiasis:
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by flatworms, which can be transmitted through freshwater contamination. Treatment for this disease for Syrian refugees includes a thorough diagnosis and education on hygiene and preventative measures.

The taste of the soft and tender beef to the steamed vegetables mixed with the sweet sauce is a dish that reminds me of home. Although this dish is inspired by European cuisine, it has been altered to suit the taste of Indonesians (Taste Atlas, n.d.).

This meal is relatively healthy as some nutrients you would consume are proteins, carbohydrates, potassium, magnesium, Vitamin C, and many more. Should you ever visit Solo Surakarta, Indonesia, this is a must-try food that I guarantee won't disappoint you.

This event was known as the 'Boxing Day Tsunami'.

The Boxing Day Tsunami killed at least 168,000 people on the island of Sumatra alone and left many injured and homeless (ABC News, 2014). Almost 20 years have passed, and although it has been rebuilt with more substantial structures, the event has left a painful and emotional impact on the residents, some facing trauma to this day.

The support and funds from other countries demonstrated unification in the face of a catastrophic event. This has saved lives and contributed to long-term recovery and rehabilitation. It is extraordinary how in the face of adversity, many countries are ready to and are willing to support, setting aside any disputes and prioritising cultural unity.

Bali!

Bali is a well-known holiday destination for Australians as it has the complete set. The beautiful beaches, incredible views, nature's adventure, historical sights, and fantastic food and nightlife. However, although Bali is an excellent choice for a holiday, there are so many islands in Indonesia that many foreigners have yet to explore. Wonderful Indonesia is a marketing campaign to promote tourism and showcase Indonesia's diverse culture and attractions (Wonderful Indonesia, 2019). Wonderful Indonesia provides travel ideas and locations to explore, appreciating nature, history and traditions Indonesia has to offer.
