In my previous letter of "President Obama With A Lot of Four", I wrote "……..I should admit that recently I often think that if you would agree to realize the 'test', it would raise a question in my mind whether it would also become some kind of 'pension fund' for me. But after this fact of 'a lot of four' in the new U.S. president, I think your help with the 'test' should make me more concern not about early retirement, instead to keep exploring anything I can do for the good of human being……." The words "not about early retirement" could easily be interpreted as my no longer have the consent to move out of this world. I apologize for this, and I have no intention to cancel my consent to move to the eternity. What I meant with that "not about early retirement" is about the option that might occur, whether after obtaining the amount for the "test", I should use it to only have fun in the rest of my life, or I still have to write like in these letters to inspire the world and to explore any important signs of God. Of course it will be up to the sponsor too, whether it should be the first or the latter. Whatever it will be, it will still in the frame-work of my having the consent to move out of this world, to the eternity. The important thing of the test is that by still having the consent to move to the eternity though I have been living in wealthy after receiving some significant amount for the test, it could increase the value of my moving to the eternity in the eyes of God. That among the human species in this world, there is someone with such a consent of leaving the wealth of life just because of a strong devotion to obey God's call to move to the eternity. Hopefully it would become a strong reason for God to bestow more of God's Mercy and Love to this world for the good of our kind, the human species.
Date: Mon, 17 November 2008 9:44 WesternIndonesiaTime Subject: Paris Kumbokarno Painting, Not About Indonesian Politics
Something important should be added here about my previous letter of " Some Other Paintings Related With Historical First Afro-American U.S. President" which contains a painting called "Paris Kumbokarno". Because yesterday on TV there were two news-tickers related with the name "Karno". First was about the survey from CSIS which says that although in July 2008 the survey resulting in the daughter of first Indonesian president Bung Karno as more popular than other candidates for 2009 election, yet today it is SBY who has become the most popular. Second was about Rano Karno, an actor turned politician and now hold the position of the vice regent of Tangerang, had been sent to the hospital. I apologize for the misunderstanding, and I think I should clarify here that the painting of "Paris Kumbokarno" has no political background attach to it, although the name Karno is famous as the first Indonesian president. The reason for my producing the painting was about the ugly look of Kumbokarno, a leather wayang puppet figure based from Ramayana epic from India, to represent my ugly look beside the beautiful Paris Hilton.
Date: Mon, 17 November 2008 9:57 WesternIndonesiaTime Subject: Jodhpur, Jodi’s Story of Paul Allen Purchasing Guitars for Collection
Another important thing to explain here is about my letter "Your Worry Pose In India" since the name of the city, Jodhpur, is like containing the name of Indonesian billionaire Setiawan Jodi. A few months ago on TV there was an interview with Setiawan Jodi about his guitar collection. He also mentioned about a famous musician’s guitars, that "Paul Allen, the friend of Bill Gates, had purchased all of that musician’s guitars for his own collection…." So your pose in India, in the city of Jodhpur on November 8, 2008, is like a message for me that my paintings also could be purchased by someone for his or her collection.
Date: Mon, 17 November 2008 10:05 WesternIndonesiaTime Subject: A Hundred Grand Paintings
Your pose in India city of Jodhpur was preceded with, among which, a mosquito photo bearing the caption "The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation awarded 100,000 dollars each on Wednesday to scientists in 22 countries including funding for a Japanese proposal to turn mosquitos into 'flying syringes' delivering vaccines." It was like questioning me about my letter of the "test", whereas I wrote "……If after one year I failed the test, then I should give up some of my paintings in return of the fund…." How many paintings should I give to you if it should happen that way? Now I think I have come up with another idea. It should be better, like mentioned in the above letter of guitar collection, to be about purchasing the paintings. Because such "test" would sound irrational, if somebody sponsored it, then later on it could jeopardize the chance to enter politics in the future as it would be recorded as an acitivity of "an irrational sponsoring in the past". So if you happened to have the plan to run for president in the future, yet you would like to sponsor the "test" at present time, I would suggest that you should not sponsor such test, to prevent you from having an irrational activity in your biography. Instead, it should be better an activity of purchasing my paintings. Maybe 15 paintings or more will be fine with me, so the average is a hundred grand with some of it higher, and it is with the hope that in the future each one of it will have much higher price, could be triple or more, considering its historical content.
