Dear Lina Gan,

Congratulations on your bumper November Edition with all the Design in Bali stories.

I was horrified, however, to see extreme environmental vandalism promoted on the cover (that architect should be shot!!!) : those white micro-wave oven-like cliff-hangers, with the row of Buddha statue lighting rods on the roofs!!!!

Karya begini bukan hanya merusak lingkungan hidup tapi juga mendekati pelecehan agama Buddha.

Hormat saya,
MW

Dear MW,

Great for you. I fully support you on your comment to Lina Gan's Indonesia Design. She seems completely not to understand all ethical issues concerning culture as well as religious sacrilege.

Her abuse to expose offensive environmental and religious wrongdoings is unforgivable.

Bravo, MW.
