Tac,

Sounds sort of right to me. It looks like a Wade-Giles transliteration of Chinese words meaning lands 'east of England'. Is that about right?
Anyway, if I were still a 'young' man with no particular attachments I would be pleased to hang out in East Asia again. Some of my most enlightening encounters along the road were with British and Australian travelers (not tourists). Problem is, you don't get to own a gun. Permanent residency is hard to get, also.

Hope you are enjoying your time way out east and get a chance to travel around.

To everyone else,
Didn't mean to take over this thread. It just happened.

Best wishes from the USA,

Russell
