My experience in Asia is that many people look up to you for being white, they don't see you as an imperial white devil (or red devil in my case :) > I'd go to China in a minute if our western media hadn't imprinted my fragile > little brain with thoughts of severe "caning" of the back for spitting on > the sidewalk, oppressive government that will be watching your every move, > diets consisting of rabid dog and rats, and all the other things that > probably aren't nearly as bad as the News portrays. Caning for spitting is Singapore. Although if it really was as bad as they make you believe I wouldn't be sitting here right now :) Oppressive governments tend to know how much cash tourism generates, and rat actually tastes pretty nice.
