    Yes, I am. I thought a lot on SEC would say "yes, I am" to your question a looooong time ago but maybe they''''''''''''''''re not as bold as I am. Just kidding!
    By the way, I know quite a few kids who went to school in NY and DC for 3 years like you twins. Hope you guys are doing well now in Saigon though it''''''''''''''''s pretty tough adjusting yourselves to a whole different world unless you''''''''''''''''re attending an International school. Take care and keep posting on SEC. Sooner or later you''ll find someone fun to enjoy chatting, talking and hangin'' out with. There are a whole lot of them right here in Saigon.

    Topic Questions:
    ADVANTAGES AND CHANLLENGES OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCES
    1. Do you meet any problem in building relationships with people from different culture?
    2. "Cultural differences cause problems. It is better for people to stay in
    their own countries rather than to migrate to other ones." Do you agree?
    3. Would you prefer to live in a monoculture or a multi-racial society? Why?
    4. "It is better to study major international languages like English rather than
    to spend time on minority languages for the sake of regional identity."
    Do you agree?
    5. "Governments should give regions in their countries more autonomy
    so that they can protect and enjoy their own cultures rather than serving
    the centralized policies of the capital city." Do you agree?
    6. Is it better to marry someone of the same cultural background?
    7. "Religion as a school subject should include all the major world
    religions - not only the majority religion in the country concerned."
    Do you agree?
    8. How do you think "British Culture" differs from "American Culture"?
    How do these cultures differ from the culture of your own country?
    9. What do you think about (any symbol, piece of music, clothes, person,etc) when talking about Vietnamese culture? How do we Vietnamese preserve our culture, tra***ion in this integration, globalization trend

    KyAnh used "wide" here as a hypothetical term. It does not take a genius to realize that. If you are that critical, why don''t you find every error on this box and try to fix it. Good luck!
