We at the Indian Society of Landscape Architects ISOLA are extremely shattered by the turn of events and the untimely passing of Prof. Kongjian Yu. He truly went too soon.
I, in particular, met him recently at the IFLA World Nantes where he was totally his live wire self with not just his participation but loudly cheering the students as they won their laurels. We also spoke about meeting again soon in Mumbai.
It is an unbelievable situation and we are in shock.
We request you to convey our condolences and prayers to his family, colleagues, students and friends.
With great sadness,
Urmila Rajadhyaksha
Honorary President

我们印度景观建筑师学会(ISOLA)对事态的转变以及于孔建教授的不幸逝世感到极为震惊。他真的走得太早了。
尤其是我,最近在南特举办的国际图书馆协会联合会(IFLA)世界大会上遇见了他,他完全展现出了自己充满活力的状态,不仅积极参与,还在学生们获得荣誉时大声欢呼。我们还谈到了不久后将在孟买再次相聚。
这真是令人难以置信的情况,我们深感震惊。
我们恳请您向他的家人、同事、学生和朋友转达我们的哀悼和祈祷。
怀着极大的悲伤,
乌尔米拉·拉贾德亚克沙
