Zoals hier te lezen is, is het een best idee om een week of drie in Laos te verblijven. We zullen zien!

CD Review: Arctic Monkys – Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not
Top CD!
Favoriete song:
WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN
Who’s that girl there?
I wonder what went wrong
So that she had to roam the streets
She dunt do major credit cards
I doubt she does receipts
It’s all not quite legitimateAnd what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he’ll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes,
That he’s got a driving ban
Amongst some other offencesAnd I’ve seen him with girls of the night
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
It’s all infected but he’ll be alright
Cause he’s a scumbag, don’t you know
I said he’s a scumbag, don’t you know!Although you’re trying not to listen
Overt your eyes and staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
“Sorry love I’ll have to turn you downâ€He must be up to something
What are the chances sure it’s more than likely
I’ve got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might beThey said it changes when the sun goes down
Around hereLook here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn’t he Mister Inconspicuous?
And he don’t have to say ‘owt
She’s in the stance ready to get picked upBet she’s delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
it doesn’t stop in the winter, no
Around hereThey said it changes when the sun goes down
Over the river going out of townWhat a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he’ll rob you if he can
Can see it in his eyes that he’s got a nasty plan
I hope you’re not involved at all

Universele Manieren Om Iemand Te Helpen
Stel, je stelt als internationale organisatie (UN, EU, whatever..) een 4tal (mag ook 6, of 8..) richtlijnen/manieren/ideeen op zodat mensen zoals jij en ik een houvast hebben bij het wel of niet bieden van hulp. Bijvoorbeeld in een situatie als de tsunami in azie in 2004, of een andere natuurramp, maar de richtlijnen moeten ook gelden voor arme, of hulpbehoevende mensen in het algemeen. Dus bijvoorbeeld 4 dingen waarmee je eigenlijk altijd iemand helpt. Ik noem maar wat: kleding kopen, eten kopen, maand huur betalen, school betalen, engelse les geven of iets dergelijks. Zodat je ook weet wat je bijvoorbeeld niet moet doen, en ook weet waar iedereen wel blij mee is.
Just my thoughts…

Achtergrond:
- Modern-day Laos has its roots in the ancient Lao kingdom of Lan Xang, established in the 14th Century under King FA NGUM. For three hundred years Lan Xang included large parts of present-day Cambodia and Thailand, as well as all of what is now Laos. After centuries of gradual decline, Laos came under the control of Siam (Thailand) from the late 18th century until the late 19th century when it became part of French Indochina. The Franco-Siamese Treaty of 1907 defined the current Lao border with Thailand. In 1975, the Communist Pathet Lao took control of the government ending a six-century-old monarchy and instituting a strict socialist regime closely aligned to Vietnam. A gradual return to private enterprise and the liberalization of foreign investment laws began in 1986. Laos became a member of ASEAN in 1997.
