Almost everyone has a friend uncontrollably in this short life, although there is only one true friend. Beyond that, we certainly have good friends, close friends, co-workers, business associates and new people we know. Friendship is beautiful. With friends we can share stories and life experiences, help each other in times one needs help.

Friendship is not impeded by national boundaries, religion, politics, ethnic and nationality. We can be friends with anyone, even if the person is living in a remote corner of the earth. Do you have a best friend who lives abroad?

We should be sincere first before getting the sincerity of a true friend.

Can we live in this world without politics? Why should there be a politician? Is there really a politician who has the soul of statesmanship?

Once upon a time in a country, politics can be misused for personal economic interests and a particular business groups. People sacrificed for business purposes only. In times of financial crisis, the decay of the wicked relationship between politicians and business groups will be revealed. Is the harsh reality of this ever happened in your country?
