      Correct , in thailand it's the same half thai who are educated in thailand and go to thai local schools speaking and writing are the same level as the locals lol. Same as an asian growing up abroad and going to foreign schools since they are young will have the same level . I am of asian background grew up in France and educated there so yes my level is the same as those french people lol.

    When I was in India giving extrance exam, they didn't have this facilities, it's good to see they care about students, even though we had police outside exam centre it didn't make any much difference, in Korea the police is escorting students who are running late and students are guided and motivated all through the exam. It must be tiring to sit for 8hrs i hope in future the exam becomes shorter for Korean students. The fact that they get to enjoy after exams with the test ID though 😭. Fighting !
