I can't wait to take my vacation all around Asia. I know there are some cat lovers here, but I am really excited to see what it tastes like. I know I can buy dog meat there too, but I like dogs and generally dislike cats.

What is a kingdom in southwest Asia that the inca conquest model resembles?
What is a kingdom in southwest Asia that the inca conquest model resembles?
this is a question on tenth grade history crossword puzzle and i cannot seem to find the answer. The answer is 6 letters long and the 4th letter is supposed to be an S and the last an A. The only answer i can come up with is Romans...but that isn't in southwest Asia nor does it fit in accordance to the letters, however the teacher makes these puzzles himself and I have found many previous errors. I say Romans because the textbook does compare the Inca to the Romans a couple time.....

Fascinating : ) I would love to meet your history teacher. I would guess PERSIA (today's Iran). Back then Persia was one of the world's oldest major civilizations, with historical and urban settlements dating back to 4000 BC. I so want to know if this is the answer your teacher have in mind.

Cheapest airline tickets from California to Asia?
Cheapest airline tickets from California to Asia?
I'm planning a trip to go to Asia with my friends. How much would be the cheapest plane ticket to go to the Asian countries? We are in a tight budget and prefer to go to very cheap countries like Thailand, Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. I know prices may depend on the month, so when is the cheapest time to buy tickets? If you have a place you prefer, please do. Thanks.

You will have to shop around on the internet to get the best prices from Ca, the further out you book your ticket the cheaper you can get it..... Wouldnt bother trying to book all your tickets for your trip just the one to the first port of call and your return leg back to Ca (assume here you will be flying in and out of the same airport to and from CA) Inter-SEA flights are pretty cheap if you fly AirAsia etc and would think booking those flights once you are here would be the best bet..
2 :
calif - asia: try singapore airlines, cathay pacific, malaysia airlines, eva air, thai airways, china airlines, korean airlines. they do good deals from time to time. domestically in these countries, fly air asia, pacific air and nok air
3 :
Buy Philippine Airlines in advance, you get 30% off. Then from the Philippines go anywhere cheap in asia by jetstarasia.com or cebupacificair.com THEY have a PROMO rate this month...trully CHEAP!

Ask for it. There are a great number of religious mission system available to you. Contact your local worship leader, and explain your vision. He/she will usually direct you to the outreach portion of your nationwide faith. For the portion of your vision which matches those of your religion, there is usually funding available. My place of worship independently sponsors more than one mission per year, for ours is a plentiful house, and the wealth is shared, not coveted. Many of these sponsorships are not 100% of the required moneys, but they help.

Theres tons of ways to raise money for missionary trips. First off, talk to the church that is organizing the trip to find out what they are doing to raise money or if they can help you to be able to get your tickets. If you are still at a loss, ask local stores if they will allow you to put donation cans in their stores. Ask all Christian stores in town if they have ideas. Ask if they will donate items to be raffled. Sell handmade crafts and baked goods. Have a barbeque dinner and sell tickets. Considering the cause, you may even find people from within the church who will donate money to buy tickets. Ask your church if they will make announcements at services and allow people to make donations towards the tickets there at church. And remember if it is God's will that you and your husband are able to go on the trip, the funds will become available. You may also want to research missionary groups that travel to Asia, aside from the group you are going with and ask them if they may be able to help. Team up with other people who are planning to go on the trip also to get a larger group of people looking for donations. This will encourage people, because there will be people who may think that you are gathering money for yourself and not for a missionary trip. Good luck and God bless!

12 :
Show your enthusiasm and love for the country you plan to visit. Talk to people (co-workers, librarians, your hairdresser) about the trip and why you want to go. Put together a letter with a picture of the two of you. (If you've done other mission work, a picture of the two of you in action would be good.) Describe the work you will be doing, the places you will visit, why you feel called to that particular place, and maybe even what you'll do when you get back. Have a couple of friends proofread and give you feedback on the tone. Print the letter on nice paper and send it to everyone you know. People have also set up websites to receive donations; I've never done that myself, but it would be faster than asking people to mail checks. Ask people to donate to this cause instead of giving holiday, anniversary, or birthday gifts. If you belong to a church with a national office, see whether they fund missions. They probably won't foot the entire bill, but even $50 helps, and you can say you are going with their support. Have a party in your home or in the church hall and ask for donations. Give it a theme and play some trivia games with facts about the country you plan to visit. Put up maps and pictures from magazines or the Internet. Promise donors to give a slide show when you get back (or email during the trip if you have time).

What is going on with the sex trade and prostitution in Asia?
I went to South-East Asia recently and saw prostitutes and also their pimps as however you would refer them to. How come there are so many prostitutes, isn't this illegal over there? I want to also know if there is anything being done about it.

Prostitution in Thailand is illegal, but authorities mostly ignore it because it brings in so much foreign revenue. I have no doubt it's the same in neighboring countries. It doesn't carry the same stigma there as it does here. There, it's just an easy way to make a living and support your family by relieving tourists of their excess money.

Are there any parts of Asia where English is commonly spoken?
Are there any parts of Asia where English is commonly spoken?
I want to teach English for a year somewhere in Asia. I want to live somewhere where at least a small percentage of the population speaks English, but I can't figure out where to go. I am considering Japan and Indonesia because English is spoken in those places on occasion. Is there any Asian country, or maybe just a part of a country, where English is more common?

1 :
Philippines, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India... those are my best guesses.
2 :
Hong Kong and Singapore. There are are also lots of English speakers in Kuala Lumpur and Shanghai.
3 :
Hong Kong
4 :
In the major cities of India, English is understood by many people. They won't normally speak to each other in English unless there is a foreigner present who might not understand their native language, but if you step into a crowd on the streets of Mumbai or Delhi and ask "Does anyone here speak English?" you will get lots of responses.
5 :
Hong Kong and Singapore, I would think. I can't really speak for Singapore, but since I live in Hong Kong, I can tell you that Hong Kong has a lot of English; the roads all have English names, the subway stops are in English, etc. etc. It has a lot more English than Japan (having been to both Tokyo and Osaka as a tourist), I can guarantee you that. Also, most of the people in Hong Kong can speak a dabble of English. It mostly depends on what area you want to live/work in; there are a lot of expats who live in Sai Kung or Discovery Bay. I've known people who live in Hong Kong for decades and can't speak a word of Cantonese; you can get by on just English in Hong Kong.
6 :
...To be honest, if English was more "common" in a certain area of Asia, then people would have already hired teachers to teach that language. If you want to teach there and live there without learning that country's language...here is some info: Your best teaching opportunity would probably be in China. Since they don't have English teachers already, I'm pretty sure that they would love to have a teacher teach there. On top of that, they are currently developing (which means economy=good). As for Hong Kong, English teachers wouldn't really be needed for everyday lessons; they'd only be necessary for tutoring. As for Korea and Japan, schools should already have English teachers. For living, Japan would not be the best place to live if you don't understand any Japanese. The best places to live without having to learn a foreign language would be Singapore. Most of the people there can speak and understand English. hope that helped :D

I want to teach English for a year somewhere in Asia. I want to live somewhere where at least a small percentage of the population speaks English, but I can't figure out where to go. I am considering Japan and Indonesia because English is spoken in those places on occasion. Is there any Asian country, or maybe just a part of a country, where English is more common?

Philippines, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India... those are my best guesses.
2 :
Hong Kong and Singapore. There are are also lots of English speakers in Kuala Lumpur and Shanghai.
3 :
Hong Kong
4 :
In the major cities of India, English is understood by many people. They won't normally speak to each other in English unless there is a foreigner present who might not understand their native language, but if you step into a crowd on the streets of Mumbai or Delhi and ask "Does anyone here speak English?" you will get lots of responses.
5 :
Hong Kong and Singapore, I would think. I can't really speak for Singapore, but since I live in Hong Kong, I can tell you that Hong Kong has a lot of English; the roads all have English names, the subway stops are in English, etc. etc. It has a lot more English than Japan (having been to both Tokyo and Osaka as a tourist), I can guarantee you that. Also, most of the people in Hong Kong can speak a dabble of English. It mostly depends on what area you want to live/work in; there are a lot of expats who live in Sai Kung or Discovery Bay. I've known people who live in Hong Kong for decades and can't speak a word of Cantonese; you can get by on just English in Hong Kong.
6 :
...To be honest, if English was more "common" in a certain area of Asia, then people would have already hired teachers to teach that language. If you want to teach there and live there without learning that country's language...here is some info: Your best teaching opportunity would probably be in China. Since they don't have English teachers already, I'm pretty sure that they would love to have a teacher teach there. On top of that, they are currently developing (which means economy=good). As for Hong Kong, English teachers wouldn't really be needed for everyday lessons; they'd only be necessary for tutoring. As for Korea and Japan, schools should already have English teachers. For living, Japan would not be the best place to live if you don't understand any Japanese. The best places to live without having to learn a foreign language would be Singapore. Most of the people there can speak and understand English. hope that helped :D

Are the following countries in Asia feasible to visit in 1 trip?
Are the following countries in Asia feasible to visit in 1 trip?
My roommate and I are planning on doing an Asia tour, just quick trips in each of the following countries. Nepal India Laos Cambodia Thailand Philippines I know that each country is a trip in itself but I wanted to do a multicountry trip. If these are all not feasible in one trip, which do you think should be grouped together? Thanks!!

Interesting.but Asia is a huge place and to give you an idea. India and Nepal (and maybe Bangladesh) are close together. Laos and Cambodia (together with Thailand and Vietnam) are at the southeast edge of that area. While the Philippines (with Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei are farther south). And any one of those three groups in my mind can be feasible. And you can add Taiwan, Hong Kong, parts of Japan and South Korea, which are bunched up to the north and even more eastern than all the three groups above.

I myself is from Asia. I clearly know that overpopulation is a big problem for all the Asian people. First, less children or students can get good education because of overpopulation. Some students may be allowed to study at the university, and some may not. Second, the government may not able to cover health care for all the people, if there are too many people. e.g. in China, many people who do not have any regular job should pay the hospital by themselves, the government will not help these people. And of course, there are many more reasons. So, I hope my answer could help you a little bit.

What are the consequences of overpopulation in the world should be the question. What happens in Asia affects the rest of the world. The short answer is: humans consume resources to sustain life. The more humans exist, the more resources needed, thus worsening the competition for resources both domestically causing imbalance between the haves and have nots, and bilaterally, creating political tension and wars. This also cause massive immigration both legal or not from poor to rich countries. The effect on Earth, is that resources are consumed faster, producing ever higher pollution. Pollution rate is higher than the rate that earth can recycle them, thus permanently altering global climate, causing more natural disasters.
4 :
South Asia is the India region. So wat's this question doing under the China category? Anyway, China seems to have the answer for pop.control - the one child policy. Population does a lot of good too. It creates demand for goods and services and helps drive the economy. It's where country leaders fail to facilitate the huge population that a country becomes "over-populated". Do remember also that though developing countries have burgeoning populations, it's the developed countries that consume most of the world's resources.

The Diomede Islands are located in the middle of the Bering Strait between mainland Alaska and Siberia, with the Chukchi Sea to the north and the Bering Sea to the south. 9.3 mi (15 km) to the southeast is Fairway Rock, which is generally not considered part of the Diomede Islands. The islands are sometimes called Tomorrow Island (Big Diomede) and Yesterday Isle (Little Diomede) because the time in Big Diomede is 20 hours (approximately a day) ahead of Little Diomede Big Diomede Island was traditionally the easternmost landmass before the International Date Line, and the first landmass to ring in a new year, if using local solar time. When using official time, a large area in eastern Russia, as well as New Zealand, shares the same time zone. New Zealand also has Daylight Saving time in effect during late December, but Russia does not (see time in New Zealand and time in Russia). Starting in 1995 however, the IDL was moved to the east of Kiribati and that country's easternmost time zone (GMT+14) is now the world's earliest. The native population of Big Diomede Island was relocated by the Soviet government to mainland Russia and the island is currently home to a small Russian military presence. Little Diomede has an Inupiat Inuit population of 170, mostly in the city of Diomede. This village has a school and a store. Some Inuit residents are famous for their ivory carving. Passenger travel and mail delivery is by helicopter, weather permitting

First of all, it's the largest continent on Earth, therefore we should expect those disasters. Second, the span of the continent, from extremely mountainous regions to tons of coastline, make it vulnerable to all forms of disasters. Thirdly, many countries there lack the engineering resources of countries like the USA, therefore the natural disasters are typically more deadly (compare the recent earthquake in China with 12k+ deaths to earthquakes in California where the death toll is in single digits), thus will be reported to a stronger degree in the media.

You know, I think natural disasters have been happening for many years - it is just that now we pay more attention because we have instant access to information, and it is in front of our faces everytime we get on the internet. However, I do believe that natural disasters are increasing in frequency and intensity as a result of climate change - in general. And, we are experiencing our own problems in the U.S. I guess you don't live in Florida where they had 4 hurricanes breeze through in one year or in New Orleans where Katrina showed her wrath. Just this past week, tornadoes ripped through the midwest and killed a dozen or so people. We have our share of problems, and it will probably get worse in years to come.

2 years ago it was the Tsunami. Last December it was a cyclone in Bangladesh. And now a cyclone in Myanmar and an earthquake on China. Why on Asia all the time. We should be lucky we live in U.S that we don't have that much natural disaster.

How long will it take to file a petition of a U.S citizen for a spouse from asia?
We have a 2 years old son who's U.S citizen though we're not married at that time and just after two months, he got the passport. I'm married to him last december. He's scared that it'll take forever when he file a petiton for me. He's planning to file from asia. Is that a good idea? Why it takes so long in the process? I'd like to be with my husband and my son. I can't bear of seeing my son playing or talking without his father accompany. My husband and my son are u.s citizen. We meet him every two months so our baby knows his father well. And even acting like his father. I'm a mother and taking care of our baby..seeing him acting like my husband...... It's so much touching. I would like my husband to share our baby's early childhood life. I'm a family person. I miss my husband when my son is acting like his father. And i would like my son to learn some of good things from his dad. As i don't speak english well. Not as much educated as his father.

What is the best and cheapest way to travel around Asia
What is the best and cheapest way to travel around Asia and Australia for around 3 months?
My girlfriend and I are going to be traveling around Asia (Bangkok, Phuket, ect) then moving on to Australia (Sydney, Gold Coast plus New Zealand) in around July this year. We want to travel for about 3 months and wondered if anybody had done a simular trip or could offer any advice (Websites, Cost, Ect)

instant advice is that this is too much for the time you have if you are not careful. NZ alone takes at least two months for a look at both islands, and if you want to travel up to the Gold Coast from Sydney you also need at least three weeks. forget the websites to start; get down the library for some guidebooks and work out what you want to see. Asia is cheap; hostels in Oz and NZ run about $30 of the appropriate dollar each per night. Remember that the pound is quite sick at the moment.

I was just wondering if anyone know of any good opportunities for like grassroots volunteering (helping teach local kids English, volunteering in local villages, etc.) since I'm not very interested in those big programs where grassroots volunteering in rural isn't their main focus. If anyone knew of any programs like this, it'd be great since right now, I'm looking for opportunities in China and Taiwan.

How is the class system of ancient india
How is the class system of ancient india compared with social class divisions in other societies in asia?
How is the class system of ancient india ( in terms of the law of manu) compared with social class divisions in other societies in asia?

I'm not sure how much detail you need. Is this for a university course or AP World Hist? It feels a lot like an AP World Hist essay assignment. Rather than write the essay for you I'll give you some general ideas and point you in the correct direction to find the answer yourself. :) If you are doing university research email me and I would be happy to give you many more details. To begin when you add the part about the "law of manu" it lets the reader know that you are referring to India's Vedic period. It is called the Vedic period because most of what we know about this time comes from Hindu religious texts called the Vedas. The "law of manu" is a supplementary arm of the Vedas. If you google "Manava Dharma Shastra" you will find tons of sepcific info. So, google "Vedic Society" to read about the caste system then google "Manava Dharma Shastra" if you need primary source documentation to support your thesis. When you compare Vedic social class division to other societies in Asia I would recommend using Shang or Zhou china as either would allow for many easy similarities and differences. For example, both have a rigid social class structure however the basis for these social class structures are very different. Hope this points you in the right direction. Shanmugave; Your statement "The laws of Manu do not lay down a class system of ancient India on the other hand it lays down a caste system which is peculiar to India." is very confusing and more than a little misleading. How can you say that the Laws of Manu do not lay down a class system and then go on to say in the same sentence that they lay down a caste system. A caste system IS A TYPE OF CLASS SYSTEM.....
2 :
The laws of Manu do not lay down a class system of ancient India on the other hand it lays down a caste system which is peculiar to India. The caste system evolved from tribal society by inter marriage with the other tribe by conquest or by mutual self interest. Whereas other societies in Asia are based on economic disparities only which disparity is based on human potentials. This discrepancy may be due to the fact that India is a country of immigrants from all over the would for the past several thousand years. The descendants of schedule tribes only are the original natives of India.Each group of migrants were from different races and also from various geographical locations. Each group of migrants especially the minority group claimed to be superior in status by virtue of their culture and language to the other group as well as to the original inhabitants of India ie Adivasi. Whereas the other societies in Asia majority of whom belonged to one race predominantly Mongoloid as in the Far East. Further each nation had one language that was spoken by the majority of the population such as Mandarin in china. That is why India cannot survive without real democracy with assured equality and liberty for every group.Economic growth and prosperity should percolate to each and every group with human potential.
3 :
There was never a class system in ancient India! However there was a CASTE system, that was abolished about two centuries ago! I feel that the great Indian civilization was different compared to other Asian civilizations in the sense that money meant very little to society. India was UNBELIEVABLY rich until the seventeenth century; In fact, it was the richest country in the world until the seventeenth century. That is why money meant very little to them. Most social hierarchies were centered around the level of knowledge acquired.

Shanmugave; Your statement "The laws of Manu do not lay down a class system of ancient India on the other hand it lays down a caste system which is peculiar to India." is very confusing and more than a little misleading. How can you say that the Laws of Manu do not lay down a class system and then go on to say in the same sentence that they lay down a caste system. A caste system IS A TYPE OF CLASS SYSTEM.....
2 :
The laws of Manu do not lay down a class system of ancient India on the other hand it lays down a caste system which is peculiar to India. The caste system evolved from tribal society by inter marriage with the other tribe by conquest or by mutual self interest. Whereas other societies in Asia are based on economic disparities only which disparity is based on human potentials. This discrepancy may be due to the fact that India is a country of immigrants from all over the would for the past several thousand years. The descendants of schedule tribes only are the original natives of India.Each group of migrants were from different races and also from various geographical locations. Each group of migrants especially the minority group claimed to be superior in status by virtue of their culture and language to the other group as well as to the original inhabitants of India ie Adivasi. Whereas the other societies in Asia majority of whom belonged to one race predominantly Mongoloid as in the Far East. Further each nation had one language that was spoken by the majority of the population such as Mandarin in china. That is why India cannot survive without real democracy with assured equality and liberty for every group.Economic growth and prosperity should percolate to each and every group with human potential.
3 :
There was never a class system in ancient India! However there was a CASTE system, that was abolished about two centuries ago! I feel that the great Indian civilization was different compared to other Asian civilizations in the sense that money meant very little to society. India was UNBELIEVABLY rich until the seventeenth century; In fact, it was the richest country in the world until the seventeenth century. That is why money meant very little to them. Most social hierarchies were centered around the level of knowledge acquired.

Are there discount airlines to fly from Seoul, Korea to other parts of Asia cheaply?
I will be living in Korea for a short time and am wanting to fly from Seoul, Korea to other parts of Asia (such as Beijing, Bangkok, Tokyo). Are there discount Asian airlines that would allow me to fly around Asia more cheaply than the regular airlines?

Air Asia, Tiger Airways, Nok Air, Jetstar are some of the budget airlines that have routes in Asia, although very limited to and from Korea. Korean Airlines and Asiana have announced budget subsidiaries and Jeju and Hansung Airlines in Korea will begin international routes soon. I live in Asia and often find great deals through the classified sections in the local newspapers and local travel agents often on major full service airlines. For instance, from Bangkok, I've found that Air France offers one of the best fares to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The major carriers such as Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific and Thai Airways often have special promotions to other Asian cities, I'm sure Asiana and Korean Airlines must have promotions as well. Just like anywhere you have to check around for the best prices, check the local papers, the local travel agents and airline websites, there always seems to be some airline that is much cheaper than others on most routes. Good luck. http://www.eturbonews.com/1346/koreas-budget-airline-market-getting-crowded

Most Asians have very small butts (I've seen 8 get out of a Kancil for example) so I don't suppose they worry too much about the length. They could fit the whole extended family on a Western 3 seater LOL (Lucky bees). I bought a sofa here the size of a small boat just to see how many of my Asian family could sit on it at any one time, I think the record is about 8 at the moment! I myself have a large Western butt so demand a good third when in true spread out mode! Places like IKEA are good to look at bcoz they cater to all sizes and don't worry about categorizing how many people should sit on it. I'd offer a variety but don't forget that Asian culture means males & females can't sit together, most like sitting on the floor, it's mostly men that will sit on it, they only use sofas for visitors really and they LOVE Louis XIV style regency, pomp and chinoisery with carvings and gawdy colours, if possible a little gold too! The Chinese like their Rosewood though.

Most powerful air force in asia in terms of quality and technology?
Please answer your question on only the quality of aircraft that all the air forces of asia operate. Please do not mention self-reliance in manufacturing aircraft. According to my opinion . Indian Air Force is the most powerful. As i have earlier mentioned you do not have to mention self-reliance. Indian Air Force, su-30 mki is the most advanced fighter in asia. Chinese air force outnumbers it but indian air force has qualitative edge. And only that matters.

In my opinion-China.Now before everybody starts tearing my apart,we have to remember that China's military is very secretive.I say China's military air force is the best because of the amount of money spent on it.They have the 2nd highest military expenditures in the world and are researching on new airplanes behind closed doors.In fact they recently just made a helicopter which is comparable to the Apache-WZ 10.They have done the same for missiles (Dong Feng) and Tanks (T99KM)

How to find nonspecific cheap flights to southeast asia?
The sites I've been on require me to choose a country and time i'd want to go but my idea of backpacking through southeast Asia is very unplanned. I'd like to just get the cheapest ticket in any one of the countries and then travel around wherever I'd like to go. How do I find inexpensive airline tickets this way without being specific when and where?
Air Travel - 2 Answers

1 :
Try to look on specific airlines, like Cathay pacific, or china airlines. Something that has lots of the destinations you'd like to go to. Then, you can either try a one way flight to your destination, then once you feel like you only need a couple more days in that place, get back online and try to get another nonstop flight. You can also go online, and there should be some sort of "multiple destinations" option where you can choose how long you want to be in the places, and you'll have a flight to each place. Hope this helps a little, sorry I don't know more!
2 :
It's probably best to choose one city to fly in and out of and an airline and ticket that allows you to change your return date for a nominal fee if you need to change it. Airlines like Cathay Pacific have an All-Asia pass that allows travel for a limited number of days, but does require you to reserve all your flights. Budget airlines like Air Asia have very good prices for flights within SE Asia. Cities like Bangkok, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong are major hubs that will normally have good prices to fly in and out of.
