   Yes, Tante Tomalcum,

   The Islamic New Year is a time to share the wisdom, make a Friend, and share the light. Let us hope to spreading the wisdom.

   Achmad.

   Hear, hear!

   (But why oh why Arthur Schopenhauer, Ingmar Bergman, Bruce Lee, Ron Reagan jr, Sebastiao Salgado, Björk, Woody Allen, Arthur Miller and Voltaire, amongst many other atheists, are branded extremists?)

   Dear Colson,

   who are they? Are they forumners? I never heard them before.

   Okay, these philosophers, film directors, authors, actors, photographers, only have some local reputation in the insignificant part of the world outside of SE-Asia. I shall bear that in mind.

    To my non-Muslim friends: Thank you sincerely for your warm greetings!

    To my Muslims friends: Happy new year 1428 Hijriyah. Let’s hope the upcoming year is better than the previous ones, dunia wal akhirah.

    To all my friends: We had 2 new years in 1 month’s time, and we’ll also have the chinese new year coming up soon. I hope this is a good sign of things to come, for us and our beloved Indonesia. Best wishes to all!

    But I thought the Chinese new year will fall on 18th of February, so it will be 3 new years in approximately 1 and a half month’s time. Thanks anyway 1ndra.

    It’s a privilege to be able to wish everybody well in the new year, whatever religion or ethnic descent.

    So, let’s not forget to rejoice in time the Jewish New Year ( 5768) on the 13/14th of september.
