Asia AOR

I am a retired 1st SFG(A) and spent about 15 years at 1/1. It is a little different but I would suggest reading about each different countries cultures as they are all different in there own way and would help you understand the AOR better. Others would be the history of the PI; used to be owned by the U.S. and the conflict between the Phils and Japanese. The hatred between the Japanese and Koreans is very deep. Thailand and how the southern Thai has become a vicioous conflict that is not reported. The Thai's are having a difficult time controlling it and there is some serious fighting (Kiliing of women, kids, teachers, monks). I would also read up on the Budhist religions which is pretty common in Asia. Hope that helps.
