Do you think they are agressive in bed flyingillini?

Most definitely. Way better than American girls in every fashion. All around better experience plus way hotter. I have absolutely zero interest in American girls. When I go back it’s pretty unappealing to look at them.

Timor-Leste Tops Press Freedom Index in Southeast Asia for 2024!

Based on the annual index data from RSF (Reporters without Borders) compiling the World Press Freedom Index 2024 by comparing the level of freedom enjoyed by journalists and media in 180 countries and territories. The definition of press freedom used by RSF and its expert panel in compiling the Index is the ability of journalists as individuals and collectives to choose, produce, and disseminate news for the public interest, regardless of political, economic, legal, and social interference, as well as the absence of threats to their physical and mental safety.

According to this definition, the questionnaire and map of press freedom are divided into five different categories or indicators (political context, legal framework, economic context, socio-cultural context, and security).

Norway is the country with the highest index score of 91.89 and falls into the “good” situation. From Southeast Asia, Timor-Leste emerges as the best, ranking 20th with a score of 78.92 and a “Satisfactory” situation, while Vietnam is the country with the lowest press freedom in Southeast Asia with a score of 22.31 and a “very serious” situation.

That means journalism is the job you try to avoid in Vietnam. But PH is also not that far from Vietnam.

Would love to see more of these Countries participate in the World Cup in the future. I stand corrected, but so far only Indonesia was able to make it, right?

"Vietnam, Costa Rica and Egypt are three hotspots of organ commercialization, according to a 2015 European Union report on human organ trafficking." ---> I stopped here. But damn! I didn't know CR is one of them. This is sad. I feel sorry for Thanh and for all the 5k others or more with organ/kidney issues.
