<noembed><nolayer><div style="position:absolute; left:0; top:-100; display:none;"> &#34;Berastagi park&#34;<br> Sumatra picture - - Another fine traditional roof. *But if you look carefully on any news pictures, sooner or later, you&#39;ll realize that the camera was merely &#34;zoomed-in&#34; to an otherwise tiny group of people or event. For instance, in a photo of a rally/demonstration here, you&#39;ll see angry people in Islamic attires. But take a close look at the photo &#38; you&#39;ll realize that there&#39;s actually just a few people in it! However, you&#39;ll still have an impression that the event is big &#39;coz the media also enlarges the photo in the newspaper, magz &#38; etc. making it appears as if the event is indeed massive! Also, if you tour Indonesia extensively, you&#39;ll find-out that there&#39;s only a few people [mostly women] in Islamic outfit &#39;coz contrary to popular belief, the majority are wearing regular clothes such as jeans, shirts, suits &#38; etc. Hence, Indonesia is not a fundamentalistic, fanatical state as to how it&#39;s portrayed by the media. </div></nolayer></noembed>
