  1. The student should focus on one particular type of test e.g IELTS. Too many students prep for too many tests and end up suffering from burn out. 

    If he wants to study abroad, IELTS is the test he should focus on as this is widely accepted world wide. 

    There are plenty of good tutoring centres in Bangkok which offer both onsite and online courses specifically designed to help students improve their scores.

    He bowed and gave cash. I guess all is forgiven, TIT

    It is a form of compensation. The children here generally take care of their ageing parents. Now that the daughter is dead, that is one less source of financial support for the old mother. It's perfectly inline with how they do things here. 

    In many other countries, she'd have to sue to get compensation, no? 

    I can only assume that he recognizes that his family has wronged her and must now try to alleviate the financial burden.

    Think you might mean Ewan McGregor?

    ???? I actually had to double check that. Yes, you're right. It has been so long since I watched that movie, I had forgotten who the main actor was! ???? my memory is not as good as it once was. 

    Thank you.

    Fair chance there's some mental illness here. There has to be something wrong to live like that. Sad.

    Not everything like this is because of a "mental health issue". From my observations here, I believe it's poor upbringing. Teaching children to clean up after themselves doesn't seem to be taught here. The "princes/princesses" are too protected and pampered.

  5. 1. The English Patient (watched it 18 times in the cinema and again 18 times on DVD). Beautiful movie! Ralph Fiennes is a brilliant actor! Also liked him in Salmon Fishing In Yemen. 

    2. The Lord Of The Rings 

    3. A toss between The Quiet Man starring John Wayne and The Green Mile. Both are great movies, great cast and great plots.

    If the Arabs had accepted a reasonable and fair two state solution in 1947 and since, there would be no crimes on either side. Unfortunately their religious hate has prevented them from doing that.

    Like a person with an agenda, you conveniently ignored my question and replied with something I hadn't asked about. Let me repeat the question you overlooked: all Israelis are squeaky clean, are they? 

     

    I know it's pointless posing this question to you as you simply cannot bring yourself to admit that, no, they (the Israelis) are not without fault. 

     

    How the Jews, after all they have been through, can treat other human beings the way they treat the Palestinians, is beyond me.
