Bruce Lee statue with crowd standing around it STATUE UNVEILED FOR KUNG FU STAR Fans and the curious from all ethnic groupings gathered in the Bosnian city of Mostar on Saturday to see the unveiling of a life-sized bronze statue of kung fu film star Bruce Lee. Lee played in a series of Hong Kong films in the early 1970s that propelled him to stardom first in Asia, then Europe and eventually the United States. He died in 1973 aged 32. Mostar Urban Movement believes Lee is a hero everybody can relate to even in the city that was both physically and psychologically scarred in Bosnia's 1992-95 war. Hundreds of thousands of Serbs, Croats and Bosnians were killed in the conflict and the country was left divided along ethnic lines. Organiser of the event, Veseling Gatalo from Mostar Urban Movement, said: "It is about universal justice, where the idea of skills, good intentions, vigilance and honesty can fight against corruption, against bad intentions, against hegemony or dictatorship." In Mostar, some 70 kilometres (45 miles) south of Sarajevo, Roman Catholic Croats and Muslim Bosnians fought each other fiercely. Even now they still live apart, sending their children to different schools, watching their own television stations and cheering for rival football teams. The statue is sited on the Spanish Square, which separates the Croat and Bosnian sections of the city. At the unveiling, members of a martial arts club exhibited their kung fu skills for about 200 citizens from both ethnic communities who attended the ceremony. The Chinese ambassador to Bosnia, Li Shuyuan, also took part in the ceremony and said that Bruce Lee's "ideas and fight for freedom and justice are universal and can be applied to every country".
