Fili’s world
A different look at Asia, China and Taiwan
Taiwan
Taipei After Dark - Andrew Harris 1969 Sexpose Travelogue The Taiwanese "The World Is So Big" TV show visits Israel Expat English language Blogs in Taiwan continued Touring Taichung : Big Laughing Buddha, Art Street and Jing MingChina
The Chinese Israel bashing in response to China bashing on Israeli media Rare stamp : China’s “The entire nation is red” but Taiwan is white Israel at the Beijing Olympics : What do the Chinese think of Jews? Our medallists : Taiwan’s Chen Wei-ling and Israel’s Shahar Zubari
Bloggies Weblog Awards has succeeded in choosing insignificant Asian blogs as the best Asian weblog for 7 years straight. I honestly don’t know how, but it’s time that this simple blog contest gets the right blogs. So, here are my nominations :
Michael and ESWN are not only blogs, they’re institutions, leaders of their niche. They’re a bit political, maybe controversial, but they provide an in-depth look into the topics that they cover in a professional way with a personal touch. For me - those blogs inspire me to be a better blogger.
Voting will commence January 22nd. If you can - either through this awards or in any other way - try to support Asian blogging excellence.

[...] Since I already nominated him for Bloggies, might as well go all the way. I don’t think Michael’s aware of this, but almost every western international student I’ve talked to in NCKU knows his blog, and quite a few of them follow the blog religiously. When I tell them that Michael actually studies with us in the same building, sometimes the same courses, people refuse to believe me. [...]

Those weblog award blogs are unimpressive. I think the blog rolls on yours, david in formosa, princeroy, and thenhbushman are much better then the winners and nominees for 2007. Who nominates them?
