When people say they’ve stumbled upon a property, they usually don’t mean literally. In the case of entrepreneur Juliane Bailey, founder of Singapore-based lifestyle brand The Jungle Emporium , the decision to buy a property in Lombok stemmed from an unfortunate stumble. “My daughter broke her ankle the first day we arrived in Lombok, and she had to get surgery in the local hospital and an entire leg cast. That meant we were confined to the villa complex for the whole holiday,” shared Bailey. Staying in one place meant they spent a lot of time strolling along the gorgeous beaches of Selong Belanak, and it’s during these walks that they first spotted a big, attractive villa on top of a hill and dreamed of owning it. Her husband Nick did a bit of digging and discovered that the villa was, in fact, for sale. With no time to waste, he got in touch with the hotel manager and the couple were able to view it before the next guests arrived. “It felt like a serendipitous moment, like it was meant to be. We immediately fell in love and decided to go ahead right there and then,” said Bailey of acquiring the property in June 2023. Just over a year later, the Bailey family are now the proud owners of a holiday home they’ve christened as Villa Belantara. The name means “wilderness” in Bahasa, reflecting its raw, untouched setting in South Lombok. Perched on the hills of Selong Belanak, the tranquil four-bedroom villa is enveloped by greenery and boasts stunning ocean views from every angle. “The villa actually reminded us of the house in The Thomas Crown Affair , located in Martinique. It’s one of our favourite movies of all time! When my husband and I saw a photo of our villa taken by a drone, we discovered it looks just the same,” added Bailey. VIEWS FOR DAYS While the villa’s bones were remarkable, Bailey and her husband decided to expand the footprint as well as completely revamp the interiors — an endeavour they began last October and finished in July. It was a dream project for Bailey, whose deep passion for design and craftsmanship led to founding The Jungle Emporium in 2020, a lifestyle brand that stocks artisan-made resortwear, tableware, and furniture that embraces a nomadic spirit. Unsurprisingly, travel is one of her main inspirations. “Many years ago, we spent a fantastic holiday at the Round Hill Resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica. We absolutely loved the style of the villas. One of them is owned by Ralph Lauren — a colonial building with white walls filled with incredible furniture and plants that served as one of our main inspirations,” she expounded. The largest transformation was the addition of a new pavilion, an octagonal building completely made of wood featuring five-metre vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and a 360-degree view over the bay of Selong Belanak. The pavilion is the villa’s central gathering place, and its large glass doors can be fully opened to create a lovely, airy space to take in the panoramic views. On clear days, especially in the morning, one can see the imposing volcano, Mount Agung, on the horizon. The pavilion also provides easy access to the infinity pool overlooking the ocean and the beautiful landscaped gardens, which was conceived by the Bali Landscape Company . They incorporated a variety of plants including mature palm trees, as well as an unbelievable amount of bougainvillaeas providing a jolt of colour visible even from the beach below. This generous sitting room serves as a place for the family to pursue their passions. “We’ve filled it with good books, and added an excellent music system with our entire CD collection. Nick bought himself a new guitar so that we could spend a lot of time here and enjoy the things we love the most.” CRAFTED TOUCHES The main intention behind creating Villa Belantara was for the family to have a place to relax away from the frenetic pace of Singapore and to immerse themselves in nature. Influenced by the thick tropical foliage surrounding the villa, Bailey chose green as the overarching colour. “We wanted to emphasise the colour palette of nature,” she noted. Varying shades of green are found in the entire home, spotted on everything from the sun loungers by the pool to the jungle wallpaper in the powder room. Being a beach house, shells are another dominant motif. “I wanted to decorate the house with lots of shells — real shells, as well as those made from brass, shell artwork, shells made of rattan and wood. I also have a whole wall covered with ceramic shells by one of my favourite artists, Lucie de Moyencourt from South Africa.” Apart from referencing nature, Bailey was adamant that Villa Belantara pays homage to the local arts and crafts of Lombok, and the artisans of Indonesia as a whole. Perhaps the strongest proof of Bailey’s commitment to championing local creativity is that every piece of furniture in the house was made in Indonesia, sourced from Lombok, Bali and Java. “Sourcing is my favourite part of the business. I loved working with the local artisans — each and every one specialised in a different material. We have teak furniture from Java that is locally made in the resort carpentry, as well as rattan and bamboo furniture from Bali,” she shared. One of her favourite pieces is the teak furniture with shell inlay from Lombok, seen in the sizable octagonal coffee table in the pavilion. “I thought that these types of pieces were only made in India, and was pleasantly surprised to find out that they are also typical in Lombok.” ROOM FOR MORE Villa Belantara became a place for Bailey to experiment, to do things differently from their black-and-white home in Singapore and apartment in her hometown of Hamburg. For instance, every room on the top floor has a different theme. There is a coral room, which features coral tones and patterns, as well as decorated with coral artwork. Then, there’s a green room, which is a fun kids’ room housing green furniture and furnishings. Lastly, there is a blue and white room with fabrics in different shades and patterns of blue and white, one of Bailey’s favourite colour combinations. “Each room represents a distinct style that I love, and the majority of furnishings are sourced from The Jungle Emporium,” she added. They say spontaneity is the best kind of adventure, and that’s certainly true in this case of the Baileys who described acquiring the holiday home as “most spontaneous decision” they’ve ever made. And while there were challenges as in any renovation project, the couple loved the process from start to finish, and are very proud of the results. “I think it will take some time to truly enjoy the villa without constantly thinking about which areas I could improve. As a perfectionist, it is a bit of a curse, but I love interiors, and I’m fortunate that my husband is the same — we can talk for hours about these kinds of things,” shared Bailey. Where will we find her when we visit Villa Belantara? “My favourite room is definitely the pavilion, and I cannot wait to spend more time there and work from my shell inlay desk.”

Thanks to the implementation of the original traditions of peacefulness and humanism, the significance of the legal status of the permanent neutrality of the Fatherland is growing on the world stage. The foreign policy strategy implemented under the leadership of the President of Turkmenistan, laid down by Hero Arkadag and based on the principles of equality, mutual understanding, good neighbourliness, and positive neutrality, finds broad support in the Community of Nations. Taking into account the proposals received from representatives of the Halk Maslahaty, public organisations, labour collectives and citizens, in accordance with the remarkable poem «Turkmenistan - Homeland of Peace and Trust», generated by the brilliant talent and wisdom of the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, following the valuable recommendations of the Hero Arkadag, as well as on the occasion of the adoption of the Resolution «2025 - International Year of Peace and Trust» by the UN General Assembly on the initiative of Turkmenistan, the Mejlis prepared a Resolution on declaring the coming year the «International Year of Peace and Trust».

Addressing the participants of the meeting, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov noted that every year a motto is proclaimed and an emblem is approved for the coming year that corresponds to modern times. As is known, at the initiative of Turkmenistan, the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted the Resolution «2025 - International Year of Peace and Trust», the head of state continued, emphasising that, based on this, members of the country's Mejlis, together with the people, presented the motto and emblem of the coming year. Having approved this proposal, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov announced the motto of 2025 - «International Year of Peace and Trust». This decision was met with thunderous applause. Then, addressing the participants of the meeting, the head of Turkmenistan noted that in the «International Year of Peace and Trust» the independent Fatherland will widely celebrate the 30th anniversary of permanent neutrality. On the occasion of this significant date, a number of international events are planned in our country and the countries of the world. To hold the celebrations dedicated to the International Year of Peace and Trust at a high level, a State Organising Committee has been created, said President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, noting that he considers it appropriate to entrust the Halk Maslahaty with the management of the activities of this Organising Committee. At the same time, it was emphasised that every effort will be made to properly organize all planned events. The head of Turkmenistan noted with satisfaction that in the year of «Fount of Wisdom Magtymguly Fragi» historically significant changes were implemented in our country.

Continuing the meeting, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov reported that he had completed work on the book «Magtymguly – dünýäniň akyldary», which highlights the literary heritage of the outstanding master of words, his enormous contribution to world culture, and the events held on the occasion of the poet's anniversary.

As is known, on 21st of March, 2024, the General Assembly of the United Nations, at the proposal of the head of Turkmenistan, unanimously proclaimed 2025 the «International Year of Peace and Trust». The corresponding resolution was co-authored by 86 states. This initiative is a logical continuation and implementation of the new philosophy of interstate relations put forward by the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan, father of the nation Hero Arkadag. Today the whole world knows and accepts this political and philosophical doctrine as «Dialogue is a guarantee of peace». In the coming year of 2025, which will be one of the most significant in the life of our state and society, conferences, forums, competitions, exhibitions, etc. will be held in Turkmenistan and abroad. In this regard, the importance of the proposal of the head of state on the advisability of holding upcoming events under the leadership of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan together with the international community was noted.

The Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers, Minister of Foreign Affairs also emphasised that the book «Magtymguly – dünýäniň akyldary» by the President of Turkmenistan, presented at today’s historic meeting of the Government on the eve of the New Year, has become a great gift to all compatriots and the peoples of foreign countries. At the initiative of the head of state and Hero Arkadag, 2024 is held under the motto «Fount of Wisdom Magtymguly Fragi». During the current year, dedicated to the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the great classical poet and philosopher, his philosophy and poetry, embodying the interconnection of times and civilisations, personifying enduring universal humanistic values, have received wide coverage throughout the world. A vivid example of this is the International Forum held in Ashgabat in October 2024, as well as hundreds of various events held in Turkmenistan and abroad. On behalf of the participants of the Cabinet of Ministers meeting, the Deputy Prime Minister and the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs cordially congratulated President Serdar Berdimuhamedov on the publication of the book and wished him new creative achievements, good health, longevity and success in all noble deeds.

In the past year, meetings of the Cabinet of Ministers, the State Security Council, and various state conferences were held, where important issues of domestic and foreign policy of our Fatherland were considered. At the same time, it was stated that programmatic activities are being carried out to develop the national economy. Among the achievements, high growth rates in all sectors, timely financing of a 10 percent increase in wages, pensions, state benefits and student scholarships, and the adoption of new laws ensuring the prosperity of Turkmenistan were named. The policy, based on the principles: «The Motherland is the Motherland only with the people!», «The state is the state only with the people!», is being successfully implemented, said President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, noting that the construction of industrial and socio-cultural facilities, large residential areas continues in all regions of the independent country. Our neutral Fatherland is consistently developing effective interaction with authoritative international and regional structures, primarily with the United Nations, said the head of Turkmenistan, emphasising that the UN General Assembly, on the initiative of the Turkmen state, adopted a number of resolutions. Moving on to the issues of preparation for the upcoming celebrations, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov focused on the need to organise duty in all structures during the New Year celebrations. Along with this, emphasis was placed on the importance of ensuring the uninterrupted operation of public utilities, energy and water supply services, hospitals, and stores. In order to create conditions for a good rest of citizens and a high-level celebration of the New Year holiday, it is necessary to maintain strict control over the observance of law and order everywhere, the head of Turkmenistan ordered. Concluding the extended meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers and the State Security Council, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov cordially congratulated its participants on the New Year 2025, wishing them success in their work for the sake of further improving the social and living conditions of the people and the development of a sovereign state in the coming year.
