» The fourth exhibition of the Museum of Floral Culture is called "The Heritage of Thai Floral Culture", which comprises two exhibition rooms that open to the impeccably-landscaped Thai-meets-Zen garden at the back of the museum. "The Heritage of Thai Floral Culture" reveals to visitors the secrets behind our floral culture. Thailand is a tropical country where flowers bloom every day all year round, but most tropical flowers last but one day. Therefore Thai floral art has evolved in a different way from those of countries in the temperate zone where cut flowers are displayed in vases.

» I still fondly remember my first visit to Nepal. I was so happy and so inspired that I made another 15 trips after that. I like everything Nepalese _ the people, the handicrafts, the rugs, the Tibetan paintings, the chanting of the monks, the art and the architecture. I enjoy any traditional Asian bronze items, but the Nepalese pieces that always have a special place in my heart are the bronze oil lamps shaped as Shiva temples that one would see displayed in museums, hung in temples, or sold in bronze and antique shops everywhere in Kathmandu Valley.
