Great post Sakana.

> Hello Michael. Could you explain what Mary Choi message has to do

> I find irrespectful and lack of touch, English speakers that bring

> The fact that you claim to have many years teaching in Asia and still

> in Asia. I just cannot imagine how the new ones think.

> Just in case: I am Japanese in Japan and I am not asking you to

> write a new message. Or if you wish I can always write and put the
> message in Japanese.

> Enjoy your Asian experience.
