taufupok, it's humour time. Caucasians like me do not despise or attempt to belittle Orientals but would love you guys to lighten up and lose the inscrutable front. Hey we keep losing at poker to you guys!

Coming to the OZ A330 incident out of FUK, I guess Konglish and Japlish can be quite a bad miss. I was up in the land of morning calm for half a decade and I must say the level of English amongst the older military trained pilots was indeed appalling. Couple with dodgy English from Japanese ATCers, the poor standard of English comprehension can be the cause of serious errors. They have been very lucky so far that one or two holes in the Swiss cheese have not lined up perfectly.
