and if my understanding of Balinese belief is correct, once the correct ceremonies have been performed cleansing the area and releasing souls of the dead to move on and eventually to be reborn then the site no longer holds significance.
I think the memorial was more a gesture to our beliefs than part of theirs and I am not sure that we can expect them to conform to what would be expected or desired in our culture. Not to say that a 'Peace Park" would not be a nice idea but perhaps a different location would be fine and easier to achieve.
