Dear Mr. Surya,

Me and my friends had visited your restaurant on 15th December to celebrate my friend birthday. Unfortunately, there is an awfull thing happen.

When my friend eat his food, he found there is a weird object in his plate. Then he ask us, me and my other friend think is just another weird look like vegetables. But when we cek it out again. We found it was an insect. This is really this gusting. How can a fine restaurant like yours do something like that? It could make a bad impression for your restaurant.

You must fix your standard from the clean of the kitchen until the food is served and also the standard of your employee.

I just hope this never happen again and in future the quality of your food is able to match up to the quality of your service.


Best Wishes,


Matt Christian

Dear Mr. Hill,

I am Matt Christian and I have an account with your bank holding the account number 5500180490. I had recently applied for an account detail book and had given a written application for the same. I had applied for the same on the 28th Feb 2006. I was informed that I would be issued a new account detail book at the earliest latest by the 10th of March.

Even after repeated trips and calls to the bank, none of the staff respond positively on the status of my application. Yesterday my patience gave up when the teller Ms. Selena asked me to fill a fresh application. I have been a customer of this bank for the past 5 years and never before faced such an issue. I request you to look into the matter at the earliest and have my account detail book issued. I hope this kind of trouble never happen again.


Thanks and regards,


Matt Christian

This morning while watching television, I saw on the news show on private television station about world dance day. Solo citizens and artists who were there celebrate it. The celebration began at 6:30 in the morning. In the television screen, I could see a convoy of an artist riding delman. There are also some dancers who will dance for 24 hours, starting at 7:00 until 7:00 on the day after. The celebration centered on the campus of the Indonesian Solo Arts Institute in Kentingan

For me it sounded a little strange because its the first time I hear there is a world dance day on April 29. To get rid of curiosity, I also seek to know their origins through cyberspace.

When searching using the Indonesian language, I did not find any articles or documents that explain the world of dance today.
Then I searched using English, the world dance day and then finally appear. Here the explanation :

International Dance Day (World Dance Day) has been celebrated on April 29 through promotion by the International Dance Council (CID), an umbrella organization within UNESCO for all kinds of dance.

The holiday was introduced in 1982 by the International Dance Committee of the UNESCO International Theater Institut. The date was suggested by Pyotr Gusev to commemorate the birth of Jean Georges Noverre.

Among the goals of the Dance Day are to increase the awarness of the importance of dance among the general public, as well as to persuade governments all over the world to provide a proper place for dance in all systems of education, from primary to higher.

Every year, there is special message commemorating world dance day. Here's a message for this year :

The official message for

Dance Day
29 April 2010



The United Nations proclaimed 2010 as International Year for the Rapprochement of Cultures and designated UNESCO as lead agency in this celebration, having regard to its experience of more than 60 years in advancing the mutual knowledge and understanding of peoples.

Irina Bokova, the new Director-General of UNESCO, has proposed a universal vision, which she has called the “new humanism”; a vision open to the entire human community, providing a humanist response to globalization and crisis, aiming at the safeguarding of social cohesion and the preservation of peace.

Dance, being a central part of every culture, constitutes the ideal means for bringing
together people from different countries. Festivals promote in the most lively manner reciprocal knowledge and respect of diversity; there are hundreds of millions attending international dance festivals each year. Teachers offering classes in foreign countries provide immediate bridges of understanding ingrained into the bodies of dancers; there are tens of thousands of dance teachers crossing national borders yearly.Congresses and open conferences provide opportunities to showcase one's work to an audience of peers; there are dozens of international meetings of dance researchers, historians and critics in any given year.

Even outside festivals, classes or conferences, simply watching on television a dance from a foreign country offers the most striking, appealing and convincing image of another ethnic group.

For vividly illustrating cultural diversity, for embodying rapprochement, there is no better means than dance.

After seeing for a moment, I understand why today the world of dance was held. Because art is so universally expected to be able to unite the difference. Thus writing about the dance world today. hopefully can add to the knowledge the reader friends. God Bless Indonesia.
