Extractions: ASIAN GAMES/OPENING CEREMONY A. VINOD AS South Korea rolled out the red carpet to the participating teams of the 14th Asian Games, it made a great opening to the 16-day event. The September 29 ceremony, which marked the opening of the largest Asian Games in history, was quite an impressive affair laced as it were by an entertaining and thought-provoking cultural show that gave not only a good insight into the organisational abilities of the South Koreans, but also a fine portrayal of the rich cultural heritage of the host country. V. SUDERSHAN Hockey star Dhanraj Pillay, the flag-bearer, leads the Indian contingent during the marchpast. In fact, the whole presentation had its basis on an age-old legend and take for take the six-part extravanganza had many surprises as the programme unfolded before the spectators at an almost fully packed Busan Asian Games main stadium. Also featuring prominently in the show were elements of Asia's lofty visions of overall prosperity, peace and harmony in the continent. For this a start was made by the contingents of both North and South Korea. They entered the stadium jointly as a single team, their banner being a white pennant in which was embossed the blue emblem of the Korean peninsula. This provided much joy to the crowd, who stood up as one man, to applaud and approve the first step towards the possible unification of the two countries, separated due to political ideologies and war over the past half-a-century.

Tanuja Desai Hidier a comingof-age story with an indian-American female was included in the Big City lit anthology (New City) celebrating the last decade of asian-American writing http://www.postcolonialweb.org/india/desaihidier/bio.html
Extractions: TANUJA DESAI HIDIER is American-born and currently based in the UK. Prior to moving, she lived in New York City, where she worked by day as a writer/editor for magazines, CD-Rom projects, and websites. Her first novel, Born Confused (Scholastic Press; October 2002) is a coming-of-age story with an Indian-American female protagonist, an aspiring photographer living in New Jersey, and is set both there and in New York City, largely in the context of the burgeoning South Asian club scene. The heart of Born Confused is about learning how to bring two cultures together without falling apart yourself in the process. The book takes its title from the BC of ABCD, or American Born Confused Desi, a slightly derogatory term that first generation South Asians in the States and elsewhere use to describe these second generation Americans who are supposedly "confused" about their South Asian background. (Desi is Hindi for "from my country.") This theme of first and second generation India, and of finding your place in America, figures prominently in much of Desai Hidier's other work as well. Her Partition-era short story, "The Border", was awarded first prize in the fiction category in the London Writers/Waterstones Competition in October 2001. Also in the fall of 2001, her short story "Tiger, Tiger", which deals with the very real dangers that can result from exoticizing, and self-exoticizing, was included in the Big City Lit anthology (New York City) celebrating the last decade of Asian-American writing.
Extractions: Dimple Lala is confused. An American Born Confused Desi, some would say. Not Indian enough to be Indian and not American enough to be American. Born Confused charts 17-year-old Dimple's struggle to bring together her two rich cultural identities without falling apart in the process. All her life Dimple has resisted the traditions of her parents and striven to be like her blonde, blue-eyed "supertwin" Gwyn. Tall, thin and confident (and irresistible to boys) Gwyn is everything Dimple is not. But Dimple has something that doesn't: "Indianness", a heritage that she does her best to ignore until, out of the blue, it seems that all things Indian are hip and cool. Even Gwyn is sporting a bindi between her brows. But what do you do when the world gets hold of your culture before you've managed to grasp it yourself?

Vandewalle Note: AMEL refers to the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Languages and Literatures. Study leading to a degree in Asian and Middle Eastern Studies (AMES) is interdisciplinary, and is normally focused on one of the following areas: East Asia, the Middle East, South/Southeast Asia, or Global Studies. Each area is overseen by a faculty committee, and students majoring in AMES work in cooperation with their committee of specialization in the development of their course plan, off-campus studies, and independent work. Majors work with advisors (selected from the above list of program participants) to design a program of study to ensure coherence of language study, disciplinary training, and off-campus experience. Students should choose advisors appropriate to their own focus of study. Careful planning should begin in consultation with the advisor by early in the spring term of the sophomore year. The major in AMES requires a minimum of ten courses. Courses already approved for the AMES major are listed here and on the Program web site. Students are strongly encouraged to include at least two years of a language offered by the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Languages and Literatures; language courses above the first-year level may be counted toward the AMES degree. At least six courses counted toward the major, including the culminating experience, must be non-language courses. With the concurrence of the AMES Chair, students can petition the AMES Steering Committee to have other appropriate AMES courses count toward the AMES major. Students admitted to the Honors Program will complete a thesis as the culminating requirement for the degree. For other majors, AMES 91 will be the normal culminating requirement. Students with special concerns may petition the Steering Committee to substitute other work, often AMES 86, for AMES 91.

Extractions: Front Page National Southern States Other States ... Next THE Guimet Museum, the largest and most important repository of Asian art in France, was not always considered a pleasure to visit. Renowned for the finest collection of Cambodian (Khmer) art in the West, it was dimly lit and overcrowded with pieces. Barring the specialist and avid museumgoer, visitors rarely left satisfied. This, surprisingly, for a country where museums of all kinds, shapes and periods abound - museums devoted to art movements, painters and sculptors; archaeological, naval or historical museums; museums for toys and small trains, combs, cutlery, harnesses and shoes, not to speak of bread, egg, chocolate and even museums of the pear and the apple. Museology is a highly developed field in France and the public has been trained from a young age to visit museums, pay expensive entrance charges and learn to appreciate works of art. The State and the regional councils systematically subsidise the museums of their areas. It was, therefore, ironical that the Guimet Museum, that prides itself on being if not as rich as the British Museum, then certainly the most balanced when it comes to Asian Art, remained neglected for so long. It was only five years back that the Guimet was closed down and given a compete overhaul. The renovated Museum opened its doors again a few weeks ago and the results of this overhaul are there for all to see. The interiors have been completely remodelled, new galleries added, exhibits well lit and the various collections housed more logically. Visitors just don't seem to stop pouring in. Almost 3000 visitors a day with a high of 5000 and lines of over 200 people - tourists and ordinary Parisians alike - waiting to enter the premises at virtually all hours of the day. Naturally, the extensive press coverage, by and large laudatory, has also helped. But the public has undergone a transformation. No more the traveller, collector or connoisseur of yesteryear but a public more difficult to classify, the general public.

Extractions: The Guild of Service, a group working to help widows in India, has created a new organization dedicated to bringing peace to Southern Asia. War is one of the major causes of widowhood. The continuing escalation of hostilities now including nuclear capability between India and Pakistan, has moved women in India and Pakistan to work together and create a new movement for peace in this area of the world. Although women do not have official political power in India and Pakistan, these women are drawing on their own resources to create the seeds of peace in their own countries. By forming the Women's Initiative for Peace in South Asia (WIPSA) they have begun a fast growing movement. As part of their initiative they are having meetings between Pakistani and Indian women, and putting programs of exchange visits between students. Grief and Renewal is proud to post the following description of WIPSA's origins, actions, and goals as it was sent to us from India. Ed. Grief and Renewal.com
