*** From [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Tomasz Iwanowski) Open Letter to NEC Corporation --------------------------------------------------
La Voz de Aztlan Los Angeles, California June 19, 2002 Koji Nishigaki President NEC Corporation 7-1, Shiba 5-chome, Minato-ku Tokyo 108-8001, Japan Dear Mr. Koji Nishigaki: Today at 12:54:07 a.m. (PST), we received an extremely rude, unprofessional and obnoxious anti-Mexican e-mail from a Vice President of one of your subsidiaries in the United States. This person's name is Rick Lovisolo and he is based at NEC Solutions America, Inc. with headquarters in Sacramento, California. We do not know this individual. His message to us, attached below along with its headers, is both repulsive and xenophobic. We hope his letter is not representative of your entire corporation. Your Vice President, Rick Lovisolo, is apparently not busy enough performing his assigned duties for your corporation since the e-mail was sent during working hours. He also must be surfing the web in his office since his message is referring to our website. In addition, he is abusing your corporate computer resources to send obnoxious insults to ethnic minorities in the United States. His return address on the e-mail is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Necsam.com is one of your corporate domain names. Rick Lovisolo is featured in your website at http://www.necsam.com/lovisolo.html We do not understand why a high level corporate executive in a corporation that did $43 billion in sales last year should target La Voz de Aztlan, a small independent news and information service. Mr. Nishigaki, in your message published in your 2001 Annual Report, you mentioned that NEC is "Encouraging employees to 'Shine as individuals'". We ask you sir, is Rick Lovisolo "shinning as an individual" when he is sending unsolicited e-mails from your corporation and calling the staff of our publication, La Voz de Aztlan, "pigs". As Mexican-Americans, we are extremely insulted. We know that you also do business in Mexico, and these sort of xenophobic insults against an entire people and nation can do nothing but hurt your business. We hope that Rick Lovisolo is just a small aberration within your corporation. Mr. Koji Nishigaki, we are asking for an immediate apology and whatever other remedies you may deem proper. Respectfully, Hector Carreon Publisher La Voz de Aztlan cc: Norio Tanoue, President NEC Solutions America, Inc. ----------------------- Letter from NEC Vice President Rick Lovisolo to La Voz de Aztlan You Sir(s) are rascist pigs. I find your politics and your attutude equally offensive. If you so despise this country, the same one that allows you the freedom to spout such vile hatred, then by all means please exercise the freedom to leave it. I also invite you to show solidarity with your palastinian brethren by going there and joining the legions of homicide bombers. Pigs, Rick Lovisolo Sacramento, CA ------------------- Headers of Letter from Rick Lovisolo of NEC Corporation From: "Lovisolo, Rick" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2002 12:54:33 -0700 Subject: Pigs Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from mail.serve.com ([207.8.152.224]) by killdeer (EarthLink SMTP Server) with ESMTP id 17kLoPuY3NZFlr0 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Wed, 19 Jun 2002 12:45:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: by mail.serve.com (Postfix) id 783763946A6; Wed, 19 Jun 2002 15:45:47 -0400 (EDT) Received: from saffron.neccsd.com (unknown [157.123.101.19]) by mail.serve.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E0E83945DF for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Wed, 19 Jun 2002 15:45:46 -0400 (EDT) Received: from nectexchbh01.nectech.com (nectexchbh01.nectech.com [128.191.140.17]) by saffron.neccsd.com (2.0 Build 2119 (Berkeley 8.8.4)/8.8.4) with ESMTP id MAA17372 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Wed, 19 Jun 2002 12:46:35 -0700 Received: by ca28xch.nectech.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) id <MH2Z1JX5>; Wed, 19 Jun 2002 12:54:07 -0700 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" -------------- End - Fin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
