In Reply to: Bali monument in Melbourne ??? posted by Tina G on Wednesday, 14. September 2005 at 11:58 Bali Time:
It is on Swanston Street in the park across the road from the Rydges Hotel. On your left when walking from the city to Melbourne Uni.
Still not finished yet (the reflective pond still has work needed) but should be ready for up coming services in October.
The delay was due to skate boarders destroying the concrete work. Have had a few verbal stoushes with the idiots a couple of times before the local residents called in the police to stop them from skating on the monument.
Despite being told that they were skating and destroying a monument to be dedicated to the death of 202 people, they still continued in large numbers to skate all over it, until the police cracked down.
