Primero la carta de Huey Nguyenhuu:
Dear Madam or Sir,
I don’t usually complain but it is time for me to speak out. I am the second place winner of the Fourth International Cartoon Festival and Graphical Humor, Valle de Aburra, Colombia 2008. Theme: Women.

I found out the result through some international cartoon website since the organization had never contacted me. I had waited six months and written two letters to Universidad Autonoma Latinoamericana, the sponsor of the contest. In June 2009, I finally got a very apologetic email from the General Director, Mr. Jesus Orlando Morales Henao who stated that one of my prizes was a sculpture of a prestigious Colombian sculptor and a book about cartoon and graphical humor, which was on process of editing and would be published in October 2009. Again, I provided him my mailing address so that the prizes could be sent to me (Letter enclosed).
It has been almost two years. I emailed Mr. Mr. Jesus Orlando Morales Henao twice inquiring about the prized but again received no reply. Enough is enough. Winning a contest is a wonderful opportunity and recognition for us, cartoonists. We pour our hearts and souls in our works. We demand the respect and what is rightfully ours. Unfortunately, there are many Phantom Contests which exploit and contaminate our intellectual World. We, World’s Cartoonists are pleading for your help.
Respectfully yours,
Huey Nguyenhuu , USA
Y esta es la respuesta oficial de la MUESTRA MUNDIAL VALLE DEL ABURRÁ 2008 en cabeza del Sr. Morales Henao:
