:48: Now, this is odd. I find myself not agreeing with the things you said about Australia. From what I know, all foreigners who are not able to survive in Australia are told to go home. I know a Swiss Italian lady who is stuck in Australia. Her visa is until September. There is no automatic...

They were singing without masks, Surprise. Stupid.

No one wants to go. In Australia, beauty salons can open back up, and pubs and cafes in regional or rural areas with no cases are able to seat up to 20 people. Open homes will also be allowed.

Ban on non-essential gatherings of more than 100 people was imposed by the Morrison government back in March. From about a week ago, places of worship and community facilities, like libraries, are also allowed up to 20 people inside.

My Swedish friend told me that they also count deaths in elderly homes, not only hospitals. They have rules but no police, they trust in people obeying the rules. It is their culture.

If Italy leaves, that would indeed be the end of the EU, but I doubt they will really do it. They may leave the euro and that would also be a problem for the euro, but that may be overcome. Europe is facing many crises now and it will be difficult to predict which one will be the worst. The...

In order to insult me I must first value your opinion, nice try though. Mr Burger King lover. Our eating habits already shows that we are from two completely different worlds, not to mention anything else. I do not visit Burger Kings at all. Frequent Burger King customers are indeed unhealthy.

Hey, I didn't know that drinking hot liquid from plastic cups can cause cancer. I checked this out online, I can see information about this. I occasionally do that because I am in a hurry and that if you use a mug, you need to wash it at work. I will bring a mug for work. So far, I do my health...

I agree that people should not generalised people based on their ethnicity. I went to England recently with my husband. Now, I am not a person who talks to people I don't know. My husband's English is not very good, however, because of the fact that he is white and that I am Asian, the people...

The French people believe that they are born this way. If they are discontent about something they protest to make their point. I even know French people who live outside of France and flew back to France just to join the protest. It is a French culture. :hahaha::strong:

There are three kinds of violence. The first and the mother of all others is institutional violence that bequeaths and perpetuates the domination, oppression and exploitation. The one that crushed and rolled millions of men in its silent and well oiled wheels. The second is the revolutionary...

Hi All, From my marriage to a Frenchman, I learnt that they have a thing called French Calendar names. Every day of each month, they have name(s) attached to the days of the month. Please take a look at the link below: https://www.behindthename.com/namedays/country/france Having said that...

Hi All, I am not sure where to put this. There is no Canadian forum. I got a girlfriend who would like to go to Canada for a year to work. Where would be a good place to start? She is interested to work in national park, farms would be another preference - you know, ranches and stuff we dont...

The level of inequality in countries: in general, the countries with the most equal distribution of wealth are happier than those with a lot of inequality. Financial satisfaction differs from culture to culture. So, this seemed to be determined not by the amount of money a person had, but...

Errrr....not quite. My American relatives are from Taiwan. Their English is quite poor. They live in the Taiwanese/Chinese suburbs in CA. The Chinese communities in California are so big, they do not need to speak English at all to survive. However, unlike the immigration to Europe, you got to...

Yeah, their slogan, Liberté, égalité, fraternité is the reason why France attracted so many immigrants. For example, Korean I mentioned in my other post. It is because of this reason most of their immigrants are people who have not got enough money to go to The States or Australia to study. If...

I think all ethnic minorities have their own fair share of terrible experiences. I was once on a bus, there was an Australian just attacking directly at a group of Chinese students on the bus, his style of racism is like the woman you see below shown in this youtube video. I was sitting on the...

Yes and no. After the period of colonisation there is a period of decolonisation where their ex colonies went to the countries who colonised them to seek a better life. Colonisation made the countries being colonised often very poor and the countries that colonised them very rich. Now, I knew a...

I was responding to Coriolan's response. His definition of French is some sort of white French people who had never been overseas and do not accept any changes. I am not really saying that French is making Muslims eating pork. What I am telling him is that the definition of French culture can...
