Made Sudana from Aloha Surf Shop

Name: Made Sudana

Age: 28

Place of work: Aloha surf shop ( Poppies II & Jl. Legian )

Where were you the evening the bombing happened? What were you doing?:
I was inside the building working along with 2 security men and 2 shopkeepers.

1 security man and a shopkeeper were injured. The security man had his leg broken. The Shopkeeper was injured by flying glass and was cut in the face.

I thought the explosion was an electric shock, I went outside and realised it was a bomb…everything had fallen down.

I saw a lot of people dying, the police put the dead and injured people inside the store. I am friends with the security staff at the Sari Club.

Everyone was panicking, even me. I had to look after the store and help people at the same time. I saw many dead people as I am opposite Paddy’s Club and I heard the telephone ringing with no connection and people smoking ( no people just smoke from cigarettes. ).

I saw a head and body parts. I helped a ‘bule’ ( foreign ) woman to the hospital. I gave her sandles as there was a lot of glass on the ground.

The locals stole everything from the store which I couldn’t stop.

Later I found many body parts on the roof.

What would you like to say to the people who did this.:
I’d say it depends on the government, but I prefer to give you the death penalty.

What would you like to say to tourists considering coming to Bali?:
Back to normal.
