Re:How I survive 12 hour flights

On 24 hour flights SYDNEY-VANCOUVER-OTTAWA. Being able to slip out of my shoes while sleeping. Make sure you have thick woolen socks as I find planes do get pretty cold. Maybe its just me. And fluids every two hours. Lots of aloe based moist napkins. I hate it when my snot hardens in my nose. Choosing your seats carefully when booking by getting seat on a row that is empty although this is a bit of a gamble. And my fav although it might cost a few bucks extra is getting emergency exit row seats which gives you some extra leg space.

I can vouch for that. Born and raised in Malaysia and living in Australia. With USD2K in Malaysia you can easily live a comfortable, with free healthcare, safe and decent life if you can ignore the institutionalized racism towards dark skinned people. Plus an environment very conducive to running a business. In Australia USD2K is peanuts. You will struggle to survive on that amount BUT on the other hand there is good social security and decency still means something(for how long more I have no idea).

Another cultural bias. As usual it is the perspective of a Euro-Caucasian centric view.Like the maximum number of characters permitted for your Last Name field when filling up electronic or even physical forms.
You think other cultures do not eat dog meat?

My name, yes really! I have replaced it with the number of characters for obvious reasons.
First Name : 12345678901
Last Name(three parts) : 1234567 1234567 1234567.
Obviously I am not of Anglo heritage. Its a drama with everything I need to do from dealing government departments to drivers license to medicare to online forms. Yes IT systems are biased towards a particular heritage.
