FATHER Carolus made the news last year, when a number of foreigners convicted of drug crimes were executed on Nusa Kambangan Island. Charles Patrick Edward Burrowsa priest known among locals as Romo (Father) Carolushad accompanied the inmates, among others Brazilian Rodrigo Gularte and Nigerian Okwudili Oyatanze, and watched them until the end.
"Usually, I open the Bible and read the following verse to death row inmates, 'Today you will be with me in paradise', so that they can die in dignity," the 73-year-old priest explained, in an interview last December.
Leonard Lueras has spent more than half his lifetime traveling across this "incredibly rich and great archipelago," as he described Indonesia, and publishing books about it.
"I'm one of the [few foreign] journalists or writers who actually live here," the 71-year-old American veteran journalist told Tempo English. He has lived in Bali for over 40 years.
Tempo English spent an afternoon chatting with Lueras in his uniquely designed and beautifully curated two-storey home at a villa compound in Sanur, Bali.
