Last night on newsnight they did a piece with John Simpson the well known reporter that use to live in South Africa.
The official figures given are 50 murders a day and 250 seriously injured by violent crime. Most S.Africans call their President an idiot for not admitting to the violence. (there are several petitions going around at present,stating just that.) Yet when you bring this up, you will find the majority will stand by him and say that there is violence everywhere. Well I do not have burglar bars and there has never been a murder in Portchester UK where I live. I have never even met someone that knows someone that has been murdered. There are now over 1 million S Africans living here.
I have not met a lot of them but those that I have blame violence (to a man) for being here.

If I wanted to go there to lounge around on beaches -- when would and wouldn't be good times of year for that? How much does it differ from area to area?

(We have family there, and I'm thinking of throwing out the idea of a trip.)

You can almost file this under the same category as the Americans asking in the Canada section how they can book a room in an igloo, yes...

I mean Catholics are Native Irish and scots (picts) & Celtics, so when people say define Ulster-Scots or Sctoch-Irish it still means they are English ancestry right, so isnt it better just saying they are Anglo-Saxon heritage, as i said Native Irish are Cathlics ans so to Scottish Catholics are Picts, if this is inaccurrate could then someone tell me the facts, thanks.

I am visiting Malaysia first time for a holiday. Could you suggest a good hotel or two which has local(Malaysian) deco and ambience, located not in the business district. My budget is about USD150 per night. Please avoid Westin, Sheraton, Hilton, Four Season, or any other US chains as I really want to appreciate localness. Thanks in advance.

This question is not meant to provoke anyone, but have you ever noticed that?
Do you think labour personelle from southeast asia get treated properly?
Do you think that a large portion of the Lebanese hate jews blindly even if they were Lebanese?
Would a Lebanese date / marry a black partner?

Thank You.

Part III in my Finnish question Trilogy.

I live in Finland and want to find out what people think of Finland. So what do you think of Finnish people? Are they old Samy, fit woodsmen etc. We are much like the English except we speak Finnish so what do you think of us?

My fiancee and I will be travelling to Hong Kong, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and possibly Vietnam. She's got a Philippine passport. Will she need to apply for a visa in advance before travelling to any of these countries? Or just on arrival? We'll be taking several passport size photographs. We'll be in each country for less than a week.

All the travel information websites seem to mention are the visa requirements for US and British travellers.

Hi, I am going to blackpool for May bank holiday weekend (25th May) for two or three days. I don't want to spend too much on accomodation, a medium sized hotel or b&b would do - has anyone got any ideas? Has anyone had a nice experience anywhere?

I Would prefably prefer to be towards the North near the winter gardens as we are going watching chubby brown there.

Thanks!!
