    Machan you are saying ,In Sri lanka you cant talk to a girl ,and that will be reported to your mother by a person(kind of a asshole) ,and as soon as you go home, your mother will hang you.
    Most of time that is not happening. It is you should take precautions not to chit chat with girls while you walk from the bus stop to your home. If you really want it, then do that also why fear? If not ,find a place to meet your girl and nobody will recognize you. If 10 persons notice you are having an afire with a girlfriend, out of 10 one will report to your mother. That’s the nature.

    Yes this is very much country dependent!

    In Aussie the situation can be different and they can afford to give those privileges to everybody because in those countries the policy of getting in to the country for foreigners is strict.. so the foreign community has a higher percentage of knowledge workers too, which has a huge impact on country's economy!

    And also the other factors often makes a lot of difference like what is the main language, for example I think in Aussie there shouldn't be any problem if you know English! Because everything works in English... even if you go to a govt. office there's no need to worry you can always talk things out! Unlike other countries:rolleyes:, but if this is not the case then you'll get into difficulties more often!!!

    And the population of your own often plays a part too... since there are a hell of a lot of Sri Lankans in Aussie :lol: govt. cannot simply ignore because when numbers grow you are valued for your market :cool:

    And Muslim countries are naturally strict! (I'll just stop from there :lol:)

    Yeah :) :cool: You've got it as usual :rofl: ;)
    Well that's why for me, Australia is a better country to live :cool:

    The only point I don't agree is the population factor.
    There are hell lot of Chinese and Indians (much more than Sri Lankans.) but Sri Lankans do have a better respect in the community than those 2 categories.

    That is mainly because the attitude, ego and the language.
    And the warm genuine hospitality of our people.

    Unlike in Sri Lanka, Sri Lankans here don't have a 'huge' ego compared to the Indians! So naturally Sri Lankans do get a good status.

    That's not a valid point actually...

    Sri Lanka has a unique culture which we all should be proud of. That's what makes us different from other people.

    If you wanna get a hair cut, then do it. But don't think about what others say. That's it :D

    Vehicles are the same price in all countries. SL prices are higher because the insane tax scheme. That's politics and that's how the government make money. Maybe too much and wrong!

    But again it controls the number of vehicles on the roads. (We don't have big enough roads to drive few hummers right?)

    It's just a complex mess of problems.

    Sri Lanka is the best country to live for every Sri Lankas. There is no country like Sri Lanka. I have seen many Sri Lankans living in other countries, UK, Italy, Australia, France etc..etc.
    We become 2nd class citizens in any other country. This is our country, our motherland, our destiny. Let us all make this a paradise! - Gamebanda

    Not really.

    Everyone need some money to live happily. It's not depend on the country where u live. But money is not the main thing you need. Even if you're rich one, you may not live happily. So you need a good brain & good heart to live happily. You can't live happily without wisdom in any country include SL. Even If you are not educated, It would never be problem for wise people. I think that reader will understand my point. A Professor who is a library of knowledge would not be a wise person.
    If a person has good brain & good heart (don't need to be a professor or rich). He will be rich soon and live happily. Other ones always disgrace thir country where they live and never live happily.

    :yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes::yes:
    reason is that he is a wise person. so he satisfied with what he have.
