Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to let you know about the incorrect information related to my hometown in one of your latest articles in an international magazine published a day ago.
According to
your subjective opinion, the town was built in the 20th century and all types of architectural features in the National Library and Central Museum are imitated to Western styles.
However
, you made a big mistake. Before becoming a major port of the Mongolian Empire, the town originally was a village between the 15th to 19th centuries. After a small civil war, the city took its freedom from the Mongolian Empire. The history of the city is your first misjudgment. Another issue is that the architecture of the city has been shaped by local architecture who worked in both Western and Eastern countries for several decades. Obviously, there are some identical aspects of the buildings to others.
Overall
, before publishing any information which has historical significance or is culturally critical, all cases must taken into consideration in detail. It may decrease the number of visitors to our town or just be disgusting reading the wrong information about it. For
this
matter, I will be forwaiting some correlation over
this
matter in your next article. Thank you for your consideration of
this
matter. I look forward to hearing the quick result of
this
case. Yours faithfully, Zokirov Sobirjon.
