Most of all, like I mentioned in my previous letter, this has no political content related to myself. It is important to clarify here because sometimes whenever I seem like having a good idea there would be some accusations that I would use it to develop a political career. While in fact, I have no interest to enter politics because I have no capability to become a good politician, and I am quite sure there have been plenty of good politicians here who could handle the political matters nicely for the better future of the country.

And I am not blaming anybody about this, because it is just natural for anybody to think that way about my self. I just worry that there could be those who become busy with the notions that I would enter the politics while in fact I never enter the politics to become a politician.

Leonardo Da Vinci was a painting artist who also had many ideas that turned him to become observer, scientist and inventor. Yet he never held any political position.

Subject:  Putin’s Statement on US Overstepped Borders

MUNICH, Germany (AFP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has launched a full-frontal attack on the United States, saying it had broken from international law and made the world a more dangerous place. The United States had disastrously "overstepped" its borders, said the Russian leader, who spearheaded international opposition to the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq. by Nick Coleman ---- Sat Feb 10, 4:22 PM ET

The above "No Political Interest" explanation about my self becomes more important, since after I posted my previous letter, with the picture of canal toll road design, there has been the news of Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-frontal attack on the United States, saying that United States had disastrously "overstepped" its borders.

The words "overstepped its borders" that he mentioned makes me think as if he was inspired by my canal toll road design that passes the border between West Java province and Banten province.

So I herewith apologize that I have no politicial interest and I would not hinder anyone's political interest.

Thank's,

A.M. Firmansyah
