Dangerous/safe airlines ranking

The latest Newsweek (Japanese edition) has a special report about raking of safetiness (dangerousness?) of 284 airline companies around the world. (Nor sure this article is on international edition) They integrated the result of the research by ICAO(under UN), IATA, FAA, etc and put their own ranking of safetiness of the airflight. (http://newsweekjapan.hankyu-com.co.jp/ but it's in Japanes) Top 10 and the ranking of major airlines familiar with you are as follows; 1 Lufthansa 2 British M

Full name of BKK 2

When I visited BKK last week, I show off some Thai people that I can recite full name of BKK. But, to my dissapointment, it didn't seem to inspire them because they didn't recognize whether I recited correctly or not. Their reaction were not like when I recited the national anthem or à¾Å§ÊÃÃàÊÔ³¾ÃúÒÃÃÕ. Oh, I wasted time again...

How small is your room?

As you know, room rent in Tokyo is much worse than Bangkok. I'm sure it's in worst 10 cities in the world. My room is 1room with unit bath (toilet and bath tub with shower, all made of plastic) and kitchen with no furniture. 11 sqm all together. Room rent is 60,000 JPY/month (22,000THB/m). Have to pay 2 months for new contract and deposit 2month, that means 240,000 yen (88,000THB) extra when move in. After 2 years contract, have to pay 1 month extra for renew contract, if you want to stay more

What is the family name of Shizuka?

As I wrote this quizz on my page, one of my friend (ni2508) ask me for the answer by testimonial. I know Shizuka's family name, but how many of you know? What about Jaian's real name? (not sure the big guy who always abuse Nobita is called same nickname in Thailand) Both of them are known to 20 % of Japanese people.

I jst saw TV news show telling that the word "kawaii" became one the most popular JP words in the world. I just doubt it, but they show many celebrities, singers using this word in their interview. Is it so popular in Thailand? Do you like to be called "kawaii" , ladies?
