http://www.thejakartapost.com/detailheadlines.asp?fileid=20060529.A03&irec=5 I visited the palace 2 years ago. The Hindu temple complex Prambahan was also severly damaged according to NRK teletext today, while the Buddhist complex Boropodur "survived". Tragically one can't say the same about thousands of people in the Yogyakarta region (3/4 of the buildings in the city itself were destroyed according to one report I have read). DTH
