Trouble in Paradise
Bali is often thought of as a tropical
paradise - palm fringed beaches, beautiful sunsets and balmy
evenings. While this is all true, there is a darker side to
Bali. The maternal mortality rate here is 718 deaths per 100,000
births. This month we feature a newsletter
produced by midwife extraordinaire Ibu Robin Lim who works
tirelessly to provide care for families in Bali. A large part of
her work is focused in Aceh - an Indonesian province that has
experienced years of fighting, and is now trying to pick up the
pieces after being devastated by the 2004 tsunami.
