actually, for the postcard, i dont know if our gov will allowed or not. but
i pressume, they will not happy also :)
internally, in indonesia i mean, we fight for the transparancy of the
censorship.

thats why i put the postcard also in the public table. but for sure, the
main reason the UN officer explained to me about the postcard, is because
the message, not because the place where I put it :)

regards,
