An Important Message from Emma Mori.
Hi, I'm Lisa. I've been in touch with Emma & here's her important message to you all (I translated it from Japanese):
May 27, 2005
My dear Filipino friends and fellow artists,
I am truly impressed and feel happy for receiving many messages
of encouragement over this BAYO incident.
I have been consulting this matter to various institutions
including the Japan Embassy to the Philippines and
Philippine branch of the Japan's Patent Office.
They advised me that this is a very sensitive case involved
with the intellectual property rights law.
In line with this, they cautioned me that it may be possible
that your efforts such as boycotting the BAYO products
and voicing out your concerns against BAYO would rather cause me
legal disadvantages if this case will be brought to the court
in terms of damaging the public image of BAYO.
I therefore appreciate if you could stop making such public comments.
I also heard that there are many people directly complaining
against BAYO by e-mails or telephone calls, saying they do so
on behalf of me. Unfortunately, I have to ask you to stop
these actions, too, due to the same reason.
I am very sad to learn the reality that your kind, brave and
sincere actions have a risk to result in the opposite direction.
I can't tell you how disappointed I am that I am no longer able to
accept your aid under these circumstances. I am so sorry.
I may also have to delete the related messages on my website soon.
I am going to let you know the results when everything is settled.
Again, thanks a lot for your support!
Emma
<b>It's all about the attitude, baby!</b>
