Hi, all, esp. to Stevie and Karl.
My name is Samito Jalbuena, a member of media in the Far East. I would like to assess the FOP issue (and what Europe may hope to desire) in my coverage. I shall do so from an Asian POV, an outsider or a stranger. However, my opinion will only relate back to the agenda. Control should be realized sooner if Europe becomes a state by normalizing one law, thus FOP can be normatized across the board, along with other issues. (The nation-state is outdated, or am I wrong? Is the explosion of an infinity of laws that have no hope to be enforced only another statement that this is lawlessness?) As for the text or template, I will be most honored if I may be given permission to read it. Thank you, Stevie and Karl.

And by the way, my coverage shall be in the subtext of an art review. I have yet to ask your opinion on what kind of art should be illegal in all of Europe. If a vacation picture with certain monuments is a crime according to a few outdated nation-states, I need your inputs on a work of art that will get the artist crucified on a much wider scale. (He can rise again on the third day because of the power of collectors, or we can use electricity.) In other words, if thousands of Asians took pictures of the new LV art center in Paris while knowing it was a crime is negligible because law is empty and unenforced, then I have to ask what kind of picture will actually ignite forces to action.

One artist has recently made a portrait of yours truly but I have told him to wait for these important edits. Hope we can collaborate.

Hi Karl,

Thanks for all of your work on this, I'm pleased I was able to help. It
will be really interesting to see if this angle gets picked up in the
press.

If the story gets coverage anywhere it would be great to see any links.

Thanks and regards,

Stevie
