 CS> The Russians for the most part worked in Korea or Vietnam and relised

 CS> if some of it is almost swimable from Alaska's outer islands).  The
 CS> Asian's lost their main feed around 1996 when the site in Singapore
 CS> went down.  Much of it limped along for many years.  In 2001, there was
 CS> little traffic from outside their own echos and Japan had recently
 CS> closed shop (mailer still answers but no reply to netmail). I arrived
 CS> there and set up cleaning region Japan then later when the Z6C was no
 CS> longer reachable, took over after a remaining Z6 vote.  I compined the
 CS> remainder and helped it limp along until 2007 then with orders back
 CS> stateside, transitioned the remaining ones to Z3 per their request. 
 CS> Somewhere around 2010-2011 we had our last notes from them then the NC
 CS> in Z3 they were under shut down.

 MV> There are some systems in Thailand.

 CS> I'd love to see them here!  Last one I knew of was Red (Hanrahan?). 
 CS> He and his son per local report were taken out by the Tsunami in 2003. 
 CS> I had been to their bar before on ship trips and on return later, it
 CS> was bare of any building.  I was told it was Red's place and he and his
 CS> son were swept to sea with many others.  (He's the only SYSOP we know
 CS> of who was reported as lost in that huge death toll).

     Sad.  :-(

     There are some Thai systems configured in android app
     Lunaterm, but are impossible to read for me:

     telnet://ptt2.twbbs.org
     telnet://newsmth.net
     telnet://lilacbbs.com
     telnet://lqqm.net

 MV> Thank you, Carol.
 MV> I understand a bit of english technician but to chat
 MV> google translator has been a good friend. :-)

 CS> Hehehe works for me!  I'm sadly challanged with languages and in the
 CS> end, am mono-lingual though as a child, did fair with conversational
 CS> cuban version of spanish.  Now I'm down to 'donde el banyo' and hoping
 CS> they figured out I'm an idiot and want the ladies room!

     :-DD
 
 MV> ... Klingon prompt: Strike any user when ready.
