    Hungary - A Short Essay

    This is an essay I've just finished, 250 words, on Hungary. All opinions and comments are welcome, and if I seem to leave any gaping hole or act like I don't know what I'm doing, consider the fact that I'm a Southeast Asian high school kid with NO prior experience on this country (except for the...

    Haircuts

    ^ say what? anyway, sticking to the asian stereotype, if it's not long enough to have spikes, or curls somewhere, then it's too short. And I'll go ahead and add another dimension to this topic. In Thailand, and some other Asian countries, I guess, there are school RULES on haircuts. Like...

    School literature.

    Hmm, my high school in Thailand has an English Gifted Program for a few select students (30 out of 1500), that teaches advanced English (I'm one of them). The Western novels we do are "To Kill A Mockingbird", "Animal Farm", and the etacher says we're also going to do Edgar Allen Poe's classics...

    Thai embarrasment: Protesters break up ASEAN summit

    To foreigners: This will have no effect on you tourists. Thais are nice people, unless when they're fighting each other. Please visit us, and help our economy. Thank you! Seriously, public demonstration's fine, closing down the government house was fine (the place hasn't been use often in the...

    King of the World #11: Darius I

    First time posting in the series! Love it! :goodjob: Anyway, I really think we need to consider the effects of leaving an area of land empty. If Neal rushes Babylon first, the Middle East will be empty, and Egypt or Greece would possibly settle it. India, on the other hand, is far from any...

    Editing Units in BAT 1.1 - Possible?

    Hey! I was just wondering, how do you edit the info of each unit in BAT1.1? Normally, these things are done via the XML file, but I can't find that file (CIV4UNITINFOS.xml) in BAT1.1's folder. What I want to do is to increase the amount of units shown in the game, from 3 units (the current way)...

    Most digusting fruit ever?

    Mangosteens are from Thailand, yeah. It tastes pretty good, kinda like banana. It's supposed to cool you down, such as after eating durian (another local delicacy). You know, durian, being the King of Fruits, makes you feel hot inside, and mangosteen, the Queen of Fruits, cools you. They...

    What do you think of Thailand?

    Interesting comments, guys. It's great to see this thread, too, since I, as a Thai, can learn what foreigners think of our country. If you guys have any questions, do ask, ok? Re: Drugs - The levels definitely seems lower now, compared to a decade ago, but I don't know if this is because of...

    Great work! I'm totally interested in this, but is it compatible with 3.17?

    Now, about the Koreans.....

    Hey, you've been asking the wrong people - Americans. As for Asians, it's a whole different story. Thanks to Hallyu, in SE-Asia (at least Thailand Taeguk), not only K-Pop, which is the definition of cool, but also Korean dramas are so loved and adored. Not only modern series (Coffee Prince...

    need advise on learning a foreign language

    Another Francophone to be! Cheers! We're seeing less and less French students. I'm also in the Arts-French Program (language intensive) at my school. We have French for 6 periods a week, and it's just great. I mean, about a month and a half and I can understand page long basic texts. My...

    Thailand invades Cambodia

    Then most of the country is deranged. The press and the media still refer to that area as the disputed area. The idea that the Cambodians took something from us is still unacceptable for the ultra-nationalists, though. And I'll have to correct my comment. I think the Thai fear is that more...

    Thailand invades Cambodia

    This is the worst thing that can happen at the moment. National rivalry and bitterness at the time of the most impotent and ridiculous weak government. Well technically troop deployment in disputed soil isn't really attacking. Both sides should stay out of the area, however. But at least the...

    American Beef causes political uproar in Korea

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is quite unforseen. Last week I was still watching the report on the mass demonstrations in Seoul, but I had no idea things will progress this fast. Yi (Lee) Myung Bak has bee president for only a few months, and I...

    Republic in Nepal

    I should know that, I live in one.:p And about republics, what's there concept? A state where every citizen has equal rights? That seemed to be what the French and Americans were fighting for in their glorious revolutions.

    Republic in Nepal

    King Gyanendra sealed his own fate when he took power from the goverment. The Nepalese Maoists have always been looking for a reason to topple the monarchy, and that did it. I think that the odds of an Absolute Monarchy successfully ruling anywhere in the world is quickly declining, and that's...
