No country's perfect. Even if you say that you want to live/migrate in _______, you can't say whether it will keep you safe and satisfied for long. It's just that, perhaps, these countries are keeping their society in check and making sure people knew their place, showing the world how they're keeping everything under control.


...but there are places, our country for one, who seems to be in the opposite side: sure, the country's beautiful---scenic spots, plenty of beaches (or islands) to visit, culture to explore etc.--but it's not 'enough' to cover up the negative things others would prefer to see.


You know that one scene in Dan Brown's book (The Inferno) which caused a stir among the nation's people because the description of the character regarding her stay in the country was so frank it hurts?


I came up with this anthology of stories as a writer, a creative artist of words whose words, I hope, is taken in both the literary and openness of mind. Sensitive enough? Might as well check another story.
