Comments

  • Interesting collection of sculptures. Little more than an outdoor showcase. No information about the artists or their motivations (aside from the title of the piece and their names). An unfortunate display of the lack of thorough planning.
  • Theme of the Original Sculptures are: * Thailand - Progress by Itthi Khongkhakul * Malaysia - Growth by Syed Ahmad Jamal * Singapore - Towards Peace by Han Sai Por * Indonesia - The Gate of Harmony by Dolorosa Sinaga * Brunei - The ASEAN Dance by Abu Bakar bin Abdul Rahman * Phillippines - Barong barong by Jerusalino V Araos Offers a cool respite after visiting the bronze monument above.
