Prabhupāda: If you allow me. Reporter: Well, is there any problem about that, then?

Prabhupāda: Yes, because your immigration department is very strict nowadays. Reporter: So they only allow you a visitor's permit, then.

Prabhupāda: Yes, I am a visitor. Although I am proprietor of so many temples… Reporter: Yeah.

Prabhupāda: ...still I am a visitor in my temple. Reporter: So you're just a visitor, but you want to stay here?

Prabhupāda: Huh? Reporter: You want to stay here?

Prabhupāda: Can you help me? Reporter: Oh, I don't know. I'm just a newspaperman.
