| #2 SH - I have a client from Nepal. At this point in our professional relationship, I'll feel comfortable asking him on Friday the question of whether his kinfolk like their neighbors in India, China and Bangladesh. I suspect it's like how the Japanese, Chinese and Koreans feel about one another, so I'm guessing the answer will be negative. |
