Review # 1 was written on 2016-06-14 00:00:00 Kevin Spataro These poems are perfectly crafted, beautiful really, but I couldn't like them. They're simply boring to me. I can appreciate them as art, but I had no desire to keep reading. |
Review # 2 was written on 2013-06-28 00:00:00 Hazem Fouad This book was rather enjoyable and informative. It covered key events of unrest in Indonesia, most notably the Dayak-Madurese conflict in Kalimantan, the annexation of East Timor and during the time of Suharto's downfall. If this book had come out much earlier, I would not have gone to East Timor on an investment mission many years ago, when the UN troops had just pulled out. However, I cannot give it more than 3* because it totally failed to cover the May 1998 riots which purportedly targeted the ethnic Chinese minority in Indonesia and of which there are more than a few accounts posted online. I consider this event important, because it led to a mass exodus of ethnic Chinese capital from Indonesia and I have personally met many telecommuting businessmen who moved their families to Singapore and only spend weekdays in Indonesia attending to business, even till today. To devote not much more than a paragraph to this, citing lack of evidence, feels too much like a cop-out to me. |
