Cempaka Culture and Tourism: Bali Prison Warden Approves Corby Parole Application

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Bali Prison Warden Approves Corby Parole Application

Denpasar. Australian drug trafficker Schapelle Corby may be months away from checking out of Bali’s notorious “Hotel Kerobokan” prison, where she is serving a 20-year sentence for marijuana smuggling, following an approval from the prison’s warden on Tuesday.

Warden I Gusti Ngurah Wiratna signed-off on Tuesday on an 11-person judicial review team’s recommendation that Corby be granted parole. The approval, an about-face from previous statements regarding the former beauty queen’s early release, is the latest bureaucratic step in Corby’s parole process.

Her application still awaits final approval by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights and its Bali provincial office, Wiratna said. The warden previously opposed any efforts to grant early release to Corby, citing her refusal to cooperate with anti-narcotics officers’ investigation into the source of 4.2 kilograms of marijuana seized from her surf bag at Bali’s Ngurah Rai International Airport.

“She should have admitted where the drugs came from on an official statement and then the statement would be sent to the National Narcotics Agency (BNN),” Wiratna said in March. “Corby can choose not to be one [who helps an investigation]. She has immunity, but the consequence is that she can’t be released on parole.”

On Tuesday, Wiratna softened on the idea, telling reporters that he agreed with the review panel’s assertion that Corby’s attitude had improved “significantly.”

“She is now willing to participate in all activities at the prison,” Wiratna said of Corby’s new attitude. “She used to evade even summons where she could have been granted sentence cuts.”

Corby has received a total of 31 months of sentence reductions since 2005, the latest six-month cut on August 18 in commemoration of Indonesian Independence Day, Wiratna said. Without parole, Corby would walk free on Sept. 25, 2016, he said.

The prison will send its recommendation to the justice ministry offices once immigration officials exempt Corby from needing a residence permit and Interpol submits a letter stating the Australian national is not on their red list, Wiratna said. She could be granted parole in a matter of months, he added.

Corby would remain in Bali for the term of her parole, living with her sister Mercedes Corby until the terms of release were satisfied. Three judicial officers previously visited Mercedes’ Kuta home for an inspection, according to reporters in several News Corp.-owned Australian newspapers. She would be responsible for financially supporting her sister and providing the former Queensland beautician with a “moral education.”

The Australian government has petitioned for Corby’s release for years, urging Indonesian officials to let her finish out her sentence in an Australian facility after she suffered a severe bout of depression in 2008. Indonesian officials, historically loath to appear soft on drug offenders, declined the offer.

Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr said he supported Corby’s release in an August interview with Sky News, telling the 24-hour news channel that he had been “encouraging the minister to do the compassionate thing” and that he hoped the minister would take a “sympathetic view.”

“Our view is… Schapelle Corby, whatever her offense, has paid a price for it and deserves to have quick, fair consideration of this parole application, for which we provided a guarantee,” Carr said.

Corby would be the first foreigner to receive parole in Indonesia, according to Australian media reports. The drug trafficker’s potential parole inspired criticism from House of Representatives lawmakers, who demanded to know whether Jakarta signed a backroom deal with Canberra.

Dozens of foreigners have been jailed for attempting to smuggle drugs through Bali. The resort island is a popular way-point for international drug cartels’ efforts to traffic cocaine to Australia, where the stimulant demands exorbitant prices and is in high demand.

The Denpasar District Court sentenced 57-year-old British grandmother Lindsay Sandiford to death earlier this year after she was caught with $2.4 million worth of cocaine in her luggage. Her sentence was upheld by Indonesia’s Supreme Court on August 29 in a unanimous decision.
