Welcome

I am a controversial man. Look upon my words with care. View me in a way that is just and fair. And that, for that, I might call you friend.

United we stand...

I played Civilization IV recently (Well, at least, the demo), and there is one wonder that all Diplomacy Victory players would certainly agree is the most important. Of course, the United Nations world wonder. Definitely, having a supra-national community is one of the best things one could have next to eternal life or perfect health (Maybe both?). Getting so much inspiration on it, I just couldn't resist talking about it here. The United Nations consist of 192 members in the assembly. English, Chinese, Arabic, Russian and Spanish is the official languages of the great assembly. (Info above is FYI)

Wouldn't it be nice if this is a world we're standing on a big, big, big civilization and all leaders obey and respect only a code of laws and rules. That may be the only way we can save ourselves from people dying of hunger, thirst, pollution and what not. All borders will be demolished, all wonders restored, oxygen replenished, health levels up, happiness globally. And all those who are against this act will be placed in the brainwasher and everything goes happy for them.

So, today, I resolve to start learning Russian. I don't know whether I can succeed as my Third Language (I'm a Singaporean, English is my first language, Chinese my second). Hopefully I can, I may post my progress up from time to time.

I am Zor Gong. Always wanting to learn more.
