I am a fan of China, and I am selecting an email domain that reflects something significant about China.

I have some selections, and I wonder if you would tell me if you would be offended (or insulted) if a Westerner had one of these as his email addresses:

1) peoplesliberationarmy@xxxx.com
2) zhongguorenminjiefangjun@xxxx.com
4) wuxinghongqi1949@xxxx.com
5) PRC19491001@xxxx.com

I plan to pick one, and the rest I will delete, so that another person will have those two others (I only want one email address, and I don't want to deny another person of a great domain name),

Question #2

Do you think it is silly, offensive, or inappropriate for a westerner to have ANY of the above domains?

I think China is wonderful, but the one thing I do NOT want is a domain that the Chinese will think is stupid or offensive,
Thank you

I don't want to spend too much on the SHINKANSEN, so I thought I could probably travel overnight, to make it cheaper. Do I have to change buses in Tokyo?Or can I simply take a direct bus from here? Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

I will be working in Japan for 3 months, where the dress code is conservative business professional. How many different suits will I need? (also, recommendations on what color/style of suits to buy would be good).

I often see questions like "do you like Japan?"or "I want to move to Japan, how is it like?".

Most of answers for these question are fairly positive, and many of repondents aren't transient fan. They aren't just anime and manga freaks, sushi lovers, wannabe a samurai or ninja and all that streotypes.

There exists so many attractive countries and cultures, I sometimes wonder why people haven't lose interest in this tiny country for long times.
If you still keep your interest in Japan, what causes that?

I know Cantonese(粵語) is the most widely spoken language in Hong Kong.
Many Hong Kong people speak Cantonese as their first language.

Then what is Hong Kong people's second language?
Is it English or Mandarin(Putonghua普通話)?
Which language do Hong Kong people generally speak better?

Why does everyone ask questions about this boy band? And bad questions at that such as, "how can I contact .....?" Do you really think he's going to go out his way just to meet you? Or does blah blah have a girlfriend? Do you really think you really have a shot dating him? It sounds like they are Korea's only popular music group. Basically Korea's version of the Backstreet Boys which is basically a manufactured bunch of singers controlled by a record label.

And I mean true unity, where there will be no more racial discrimination, no racial name callings, no racism of any kind, you and I are the same, we call ourselves Malaysians and not I'm a Melayu, I'm an Indian, I'm a Chinese, I'm a Punjab etc. To Malaysians answering this question, you and I know the reality now. Even under this Yahoo category, we still see racist answers....it's sad but that's the fact.

I envy the stories of the aged, way back when before Merdeka and the early years of independence, they were talking about real racial unity and harmony, but where are we today, I've seen friends whom turns me away and picks on me due to racial differentiation, but I've seen so much of it that I am able to accept and tolerate it hoping that one day, Malaysia, my country, will come to achieve this dream.

I was just curious. I was surfing the net. I found Globe is controlled by the Zobel De Ayalas, this knowledge readily available at their site. Their Corporate Governance section (fancy term).

But when I looked at Smart, I found this is subsidiary of PLDT. And PLDT in turn is 31% owned by a certain firm First Pacific and the mysterious "Other Owners(includes public stock), 49%)

When I tried to follow the link to First Pacific, (Wiki) there is this Block Warning (whatever could they mean?) There was a time I knew the Cojuangcos controlled PLDT, but now I don't know if this is still true. Do you know?

importance of education/ seeking knowledge just like the western civilization and Chinese civilization. Even though Melacca at that time (16th century) was a rich country it never emphasis on education but more towards madarasah. In Paris people a degree course has been introduce since 16th century.University of Geneva was establish in 1559 by John Calvin.
