ORIGINAL POSTER

Thank you everyone for all the opinions and suggestions and advices..and I apologize  if I caused a stir..since majority suggest Thai language is not accepted under soft power, I will heed the advice. Today hubby will register for Muay Thai instead..I will update the group and wish us luck in Hanoi..this group has shown more concern and better knowledge of what's going on than the other group..I really appreciate the patience you showed me..
