Gary Bull: What Myanmar and Indonesia have in common is that in both countries, the government obstructs Muslim marriages. In Myanmar, Muslims need government licenses to marry. And in Indonesia according to government plans, if a marriage is conducted in a purely Muslim manner, without government permission, everybody gets thrown into jail: husband and wife, and the imam, too. The imam will even go to jail for several years.
Gary Bull: Qu'est-ce Myanmar et d'Indonésie ont en commun est que dans les deux pays, le gouvernement empêche les mariages musulmans. Au Myanmar, les musulmans ont besoin de licences du gouvernement de se marier. Et en Indonésie après les plans du gouvernement, si un mariage est menée d'une manière purement musulmane, sans l'autorisation du gouvernement, tout le monde est jeté en prison: mari et femme, et l'imam, aussi. L'imam va même aller en prison pour plusieurs années.

Korea / Climate
Like other
countries in the temperate zone, Korea has four distinct seasons.
In spring and autumn, the weather is superb: clear, blue skies
and warm, gentle sunshine. Summer is relatively hot and humid,
with heavy rainfall occurring during the monsoon season. Winter
is cold and dry, with occasional snow. However, these cold spells
alternate with periods of milder weather.
