Tournament of Roses

From Kompas

Indonesia has once again won an award in the Tournament of Roses in Pasadena, California, U.S. For 1995, under the theme Island of Eden -- Quest for Adventure, Indonesia succeeded in winning the prestigious Grand Marshall Award and was categorized as the most creative design.

Unfortunately, this is the last time that Indonesia will be participating in the tournament, which was financed by the Nusantara Flower Foundation. It is deplorable that Indonesia will not be taking part in this event in the coming years. In fact, Indonesia's participation is supportive to the efforts for promoting its natural beauty and culture in the international arena. I hope some party will be interested in sponsoring Indonesia for next year's event.
