Di sebuah bukit yang menghadap ke laut, bukit 'cinta' kebanyakan orang Ende menyebutnya, saya menikmati senja. Rerumputan yang berwarna hijau-kebiruan terlihat begitu indah, kontras dengan langit yang berubah menjadi jingga. Tidak ada siapa-siapa, hanya desiran angit yang cukup kuat. Begitu terpesonanya saya dan tanpa terasa...

Today, four million hectares (nearly 10 million acres), or more than 60 percent, have gone. Land clearing, both legal and illegal, has made way for tree and oil palm plantations, logging concessions and small farms.
