젊은 사람들이 다 한 번쯤은 생각해 보아야 할 좋은 말씀, 감사합니다..

... government official's driving brand new BMWs and the lines of people clamouring to get their ration of bread every morning.

One thing is true though, the people are some of the friendliest in the world, and the place is a tropical paradise.

I consider myself a socialist but after visiting Cuba, venturing off the 'tourist track', I managed to see beyond the thin veneer, and have lost total faith in the Communist ideal. And consider myself lucky that I have the right to free speech.

I also am a member of the Communist party of Japan which has forgiven the actions of WWII and was against WWII

[sadmebe7]
