Receiving your comments is like falling rain in a desert. Grateful. I still remember you.

“Bacaan Waktu Santai 2” a compilation of your (philosophical) thoughts expressed in captivating sketches. I am pleasantly surprised at this gift, ... which I will pass to my friends here, especially the Dutch speaking ones.
What strikes me from your writings is that in all simplicity of life in Indonesia, socio-political & economic problems notwithstanding, you were and still are able to see or find beauty in the simplest things you encounter in daily life there. Given the view that life on earth is relatively short. I am becoming increasingly aware of what those people in constant hot pursuit of earthly riches are missing out on!
…I think that your lyrical contemplation, vignettes and sketches from life deserve acknowledgement. At least, public recognition for your talent in writing and contribution. Go on with your artistic creations.

I would like you to know how much such simple, amusing articles could raise one’s spirits. It is small things like your comments on every day life, that makes life quite worthwhile living. Put up with the work you are doing. I don’t know how many people are enjoying your efforts. As usual, mankind is happy to receive but reluctant to give. You gave something to the public and most of them think this Chew G.H. is someone who understands what life is all about.

I am enticed by “A Dream in Old Age” in Suara Karya. Although it tells about a dream, yet it intensely warms my heart.

Your exposition is very “biting” and of weight, significance

You wrote about your experience with such ease, so light, no hurry, yet hits the mark and in the “bahasa” nice to read, to discuss and to understand it.
