Ron Goforth, ZNA district chairman wrote, “Perhaps not all American koi enthusiasts share my feelings; in fact, I know many who do not, who feel that some of us make the hobby “too Japanese” and that we should work to establish “American standards of koi”. To these good folks I can only say that it is a Japanese hobby to begin with;they invented it, set the rules and standards for it, and although some may disagree, I for my part feel that it is no longer the same hobby when those rules and standards become changed because we either haven’t learned to, or don’t choose to understand them. For my part, I prefer to remain with the original emphasis placed by the hobby’s creators---“ http://www.znaska.org/Why%20ZNA.htm |
