Female ambassadors

I would like to draw your kind attention to the article Mageza feels at home in Jakarta published in The Jakarta Post on March 23, where it was incorrectly stated that Jakarta has only three female ambassadors at present.

Unfortunately, the name of the Bangladesh Ambassador H.E. Ms. Nasim Firdaus, who presented her credentials on Nov. 22, 2002, and is the second longest serving female ambassador now in Indonesia, was excluded from the list.

MD. NAZMUL ISLAM, First Secretary, Bangladesh Embassy, Jakarta

Note: Thank you for the information.
