English: The Borobudur Temple, approximately 115 x 115 metres at its base rising some 23 metres, excluding the terminal stupa, was built around 1100 years ago. It is facing destruction through gradual disintegration. Upon request of the Indonesian Government, UNESCO has sent experts to advise on the restoration and conservation of this important monument and on 12 October 1972, the UNESCO Executive Board authorized the Director-General to sign an agreement with the Indonesian Government for the preservation of this temple. Crumbling walls on the first terrace.
Français : Le temple de Boroboudour (env. 115 x 115 m. à la base et 23 m. de hauteur, non compris le stupa terminal) a été construit il y a quelque 1100 années. Malheureusement, cette magnifique construction menace ruine par désintégration progressive des matériaux qui la composent. A la demande du Gouvernement indonésien, des experts furent envoyés sur place par l'UNESCO afin d'y etudier les meilleurs moyens de restauration et de conservation, et le Conseil Exécutif de l'Organisation a autorisé, le 12 Octobre 1972, le Directeur Général à signer avec ce Gouvernement un accord pour coopérer à la préservation de ce temple. Les murs de la première terrasse dangereusement penchés.
