New Zealand is an island country located in the Pacific Ocean in the Southern Hemisphere consisting of the main islands The North Island and The South Island in addition to a group of smaller islands including the Chatham Islands and the Stewart Island or Rakiura Island (see map of New Zealand). Cook Islands and Niue are island nations in free association with New Zealand. They have complete autonomy being independent nations even though they are not viewed by the United Nations as separate from New Zealand. The residents of these islands are considered citizens of the state of New Zealand. New Zealand also governs the territory of Tokelau. The Ross Dependency is New Zealands territorial claim on the frozen continent of Antarctica. Wellington is the capital of the country while Auckland is the largest and most populated metropolis.

New Zealand is a democracy and constitutional monarchy under the symbolic leadership of the British monarch Queen Elizabeth the Second. The parliamentary leader, the Prime Minister, holds the actual power of government who is appointed by the nominal Head of State, the Governor General and who acts as the categorical Head of State. The government is a democracy and thus the Parliament is democratically elected. The country is a member of the British Commonwealth, which is an association of fifty three nations that were previously British colonies many of which still recognize the British monarch as their own as a result of which they accept God Save The Queen as their national anthem. New Zealand also accepts God Defend New Zealand as a national anthem effectively giving it two national anthems.

The people of New Zealand are of European and Asian ancestry with percentages of the population belonging to the indigenous Polynesian or Maori people as well as people of Polynesian descent who are not of the Maori culture.

The culture of New Zealand is a fairly recently developed one as New Zealand was on of the last regions of the world that human civilization touched. It is a fascinating blend of contributing threads from its population of people of varying ancestries. It is a mix of American, British, Australian; European as well as liberal splashes of Polynesian (chiefly Maori) and Asian influences. Festivals celebrated here are as far ranging and varied as Diwali, Christmas, the Chinese New Year and a grand Polynesian festival the Pasifika. A nation that considers religion a private matter it is exceeding peaceful and accepting of different ways of life. The Maori ways, which had been fading due to the introduction then spread of Christianity in the early half of the nineteenth century, have seen a rise in the last few decades.

As showcased in the Lord of the Rings movies New Zealand is lush with greenery and has snow capped mountains that dip down to the ocean. The flora and fauna of the land are almost exclusively unique to it and cannot be found in any other part of the globe (see our New Zealand photos). A richly bio diverse region consisting of a large percentage of endemic flora and fauna such as forests, home to rare birds like the kiwi, kakapo, kaka, kea parrot and takah? and a multiplicity of endemic insects. The nation is highly sensitive to ecological issues and spearheads projects to save its precious variety of endangered species.

We are back with more information on beautiful Thailand. Today we are going to talk about Pattaya and some of its nearby islands.

Thailand is a mix of eastern and western cultures. Choosing where to visit can take some time without the right information. If a busy major city is your thing, Bangkok would be your best bet. You will either love Bangkok or hate it. East meets West in Bangkok. Beautiful temples, floating markets, traditional festivals, cultural events, Thai hospitality combined with an ultra modern transport system, top class Bangkok hotels, fantastic restaurants (seafood) pumping nightlife, bars, and some of the best shopping anywhere, at prices far lower than you could ever dream about.
Bangkok is a major international city, but you will find a week is more than enough time to see and do most things. It would be a good idea to mix time in Bangkok with a holiday on the beach or in the countryside of Chiang Mai, so you can experience more of what Thailand has to offer.

The holiday season was not so joyful for scores of MAXJet passengers who were  stranded at airports when the airline ceased operations. MAXjet declared bankruptcy  citing high fuel cost and low passenger loads which in turn left their planes and  passengers stranded on the tarmac. MAXjet is a US based; all business class airline  operating a fleet of Boeing 767s. In contrast, the British airline Sliverjet, which also operates all business  class flights between London and New York on a Boeing 767, is doing fairly well.
    Since 2005, many all business class airlines have taken shape and have began to do  fairly well on what was once legacy routes, mainly United States- Britain. We’ve all  heard of low fare airlines but now there are also these mid fare airlines that offer  some excellent products. Usually boasting their own lounges, transfer facilities, and  exclusive aircraft in which there are only 1/4th the maximum number of seats on the  plane, all topped off with an amazing in flight product which some analysts speculate  is of a business/first class mesh and low business – premium economy class costs!  This new type of airline is bound to stay but MAXJet may surely not be the first to  go out with rising fuel costs and intense competition!
