JSX photo display

We are referring to the article published in the "Focus on Jakarta" column of The Jakarta Post, Aug. 2, 1995 concerning comments made by a number of artists represented by Adi Kurdi.

The committee of the Photo Exhibition of the 1995 Stock Exchange wishes to give the following comments:

In organizing the exhibition, there was no intention of insulting the national flag of our country. Our design did not depict a national flag standing on its own but rather a traditional banner in which the red and white colors were arranged to form a unity, with the writing: 50 years Indonesia and 18 years Jakarta Stock Exchange. This only displayed artistic creativity. However, if there is any party which regarded it a flag we would like to take this opportunity to apologize.

As a consequence, we discarded the red and white colors, leaving only the blue color in the form of a trapezium with the words Pameran foto (Photo display) written on it. The banner is three meters high. We thank you for your attention and comments.
