Historical reality is often too bitter to swallow or too hot to stand. History is a large mirror that reflects the facts of the past, and all that has been etched into the glass of history can never be erased. If you don't like a particular historical fact, you may try to cover it up or forget it, but you can never remove it. An historical fact can be interpreted in a variety of ways, but regardless of the interpretation, the fact will never change, The Jakarta Post, july 2005
