Comments from readers

A newspaper cannot exist without the support of its community of readers. The Jakarta Post owes its success -- if surviving for 20 years in the newspaper industry is deemed a success story -- to its loyal readers, as well as to the commitment of its employees, past and present.

For this page and the opposite one, we asked a selected number of longtime readers, some of whom no longer reside in Jakarta, to share with us their thoughts about the newspaper.

Several former employees also relate their experiences with the newspaper (we apologize that we do not have all their photos in our album).

We are grateful for their contribution to these pages.
