But I do not like your new format. The photos are still the best, but the cluttered, hysterical layout, the breathless reviews that are nothing but ads in disguise, and the short articles instead of the longer serious ones we enjoyed bring your mag down to the level of most of the others, and not at the top either. Sadly I will not resubscribe. Kakek    Report

Recall that I used to have the peaceful mind when reading Asian Diver in the old days.  However the recent issues are just too much colour... yeah very eye-catching but rather like the type of magazines which promotes gossips and stuff...
