Korean exchange students

My Korean kids are at the brink of adulthood.They are curious to explore new places and are impressed by how modern our built environment is,the easy connectivity of the light rail transit,the 24 hour availability of food and the megamalls.They enjoy the local fruits,biscuits and village park nasi lemak.Some even said they wouldnt mind working in KL one day so they seem adaptable to diversity.when youths learn more about the vibrant cultures and economy of Asean,they will reinforce Aseans workforce with a global market.So the two most dynamic Asean members were Thailand and Indonesia until the leaders of Indonesia disengage from its proactive regional role in the bloc.Countries like Japan and China should have more cultural student exchanges with Asean as it fosters deeper understanding of realities on the grassroot level .Sports is another unifying factor like golf study tours or football camps.. i went with my colleagues and persuaded them to try Turkish food which they surprisingly found tasty like pide ,grilled meat rice kabuli and braised lamb.the Lale Cafe in Centrepoint serves really delicious turkish cuisine.i love the sour cream dip that came with the pide.
