i hope that someone in each the government will read it and maybe will do something about it... and its kinda unfortunately that i don't have green card
^^Off topic-Green card??..^^ ..for which country? INA? ISR? or U.S.?..I know U.S. green card (resident but non-citizen) holder doesn't have to pay visa because they still hold an INA passport.
Duh, again OOT... Well, try to tell that to those hardliners here, mister. Even hearing the word 'Israel' perhaps will make them glare toward you... Be careful, mister. Not every food here is kosher... Matches between these 2 nations would be a little difficult. Perhaps on club-level... Say, Maccabi Haifa vs Persib, whatever badminton club in Israel vs Djarum, and between athletics clubs. I think it's easier to arrange matches without representing each countries. Maybe.
Off topic-Ehhmm.. ...no doubt. And it makes you wonder how silly, to an extent stupid, they are to be that "prejudice", eh??.. ..so i take it you don't really follow/adhere fully to the Jewish/Judaism traditions??..
yeah your right im not, i dont think that the rules will make me butter jew, i do believe in god but i dont think that if i will eat Kosher food god will love me more... (you can call it semi atheistic )
Off topic-Very good!!.. ..glad to know you realize that. Actually, it's not really semi atheistic (since you believe in God). I think it's more like you don't believe in their traditions.
Out of topic I've never heard of semi-atheistic, but what you describe make you sound 'agnostic'... Look at the exact meaning in an English dictionary... Hey, let's get back to badminton... Does Israel have many badminton clubs? Their players compete regularly in domestic tournaments? Then you have National Rankings etc.?
yes we do. there is 2 rankings 1 for youth and 1 for seniors. the youth is calculated by tournaments only. the senior is by league games & tournaments. i am ranked 82 at the seniors just because i didn't play a lot. about the agnostic, i dont think its the right word, at list in this situation. because i dont murder people and i am not stealing from anyone. i living my live with believing in god, but without the traditions...
In INA, we have many age groups... Under 10 Under 12 Under 14 Under 16 Under 19 All age (basically for Senior players, but anyone can participate) Veteran 35+ Veteran 40+ Veteran 45+ Veteran 55+ Veteran 60+ Oh, note: agnostics do not support immorality...
In tournaments... We do not have an active league right now... We have many tournaments here, some of the official (that produces PBSI-ranking point) tournaments in 2010: 9 National Circuits (4 in Java, 2 in Sumatra, 1 in Sulawesi, 1 in Kalimantan, 1 in Bali/Lombok) 5 (or more) Commercially-sponsored Tournaments 1 National Championship (only Indonesians can play here) Except for the National Championship, non-INA passport holders can join any of the tournaments above but won't get BWF ranking points. If you want BWF ranking points, you may join: Indonesia Open Super Series (if you qualify) Indonesian GP Gold (in the process of formalization) Indonesian Challenge
Off topic-Not quite the term.. ...i don't think the term 'agnostic' applies to dorysan. An 'agnostic' is a person who is not sure if God exists (yes, they believe in morality and all those good stuff). i don't know if there's an exact term for dorysan's status, though. i guess dorysan is more like an "untraditional" or "unorthodox" Jew/Israeli (Jews/Judaism has tons and tons of rules/law/traditions)...
Hi Dorysan, Come to Australia for our U17 in April, we are about the same level with you. I will find you a double partner, send me your video so I know your level.
