Extractions: Dalrymple's essay is a critique of Naipaul's recent statement of support for the BJP, as well as of the long history of Naipaul's hostility to the Muslim legacy in India. Dhondy's essay is an attack on Dalrymple, on the grounds that he feels Naipaul's support for the BJP is actually measured and reasonable, and that Dalrymple's long critique is disproportionate to the simple statements issued by Naipaul. Dhondy also accuses Dalrymple of being an "outsider" (despite Dalrymple's distinguished career as a historian of India), and refers to him disrespectfully as "Willy."

In the larger Indian society, a major role of the festivals is to promote unity in diversity, with emphasis on communal harmony. Some religious festivals mark the passing of the seasons, while some can be termed as cultural events. Some are celebrated in isolated corners of the country, while a few transcend barriers of creed and are joyously celebrated all over the country.

'Asian' is a term that has differing definitions depending on the geographical context in which it is used. Here it defines a category under which Indians are subsumed but more commonly in New Zealand it is used in reference to those of South East Asian and Chinese origin.

Archives 2000 'THE ART OF ASIA IS THE ART OF HALF THE WORLD.' Edmund Capon, Director, Art Gallery of New South Wales The additional 720 square metres gives a central space dedicated to temporary exhibitions as well as providing more space for the permanent collection. So wide and diverse is the culture of Asia, that the imperative was a flexible space to present a challenging range of temporary exhibitions of Asian art - contemporary and traditional. This has been achieved, and the galleries respond to all the possibilities of exhibiting - from stone sculptures seen in filtered sunlight, to fragile silks requiring soft light and shadows. Clear lines, flexible spaces and variable light ensure that all types of art can be shown to their best advantage. As well as the new Asian galleries, this major building project includes alterations to the original Asian gallery, a temporary exhibition space - the Rudy Komon gallery - above the Art Gallery entrance foyer, with views of the ornately carved Vernon arches, new conservation studios, a café, a restaurant and dedicated function area with spectacular harbour views, and refurbishment of the administration area. The New South Wales State Government provided grants of $16 million for the Art Gallery of New South Wales to undertake this major building project.

Extractions: The War in Afghanistan: South Asian Perspectives printer-friendly version The mood here, in Pakistan, is grim, fearful, depressed. This war is not popular. From the emancipated womens organisations to the bearded fundamentalists all agree on one thing: it is disgraceful and wrong for the most powerful nation on earth to mercilessly pound perhaps the poorest and most oppressed of all peoples with huge bombs, cruise missiles and artillery. " until they have destroyed the last ant ."said the well known journalist Ayaz Amir. It is a war against an enemy, who is largely unknown and whose guilt has not been conclusively proved. The targets and the results are not revealed. Where human loss and damage, where death and wounds occur, they are cynically camouflaged as "collateral damage". Against who, what, why and exactly where is this war being fought? The perspective from South Asia is different from Europe. The Americans are not trusted here. This is not because of a distrust of the western way of life, or because a residue of leftist anti-American sentiment has survived from the seventies. No, the reasons are very concrete. The people of Pakistan still remember how the Americans turned their backs on them, after the Soviet-Afghan war was won. They were left alone to clean up the mess: over two million starving refugees and displaced persons in the country; political chaos and internal strife in neighbouring Afghanistan; dictatorship and fanaticism in their own country.
