You laugh, but even I have been in similar situations. Obviously day-to-day life is one thing, but I'm often more up-to-date on Jcan government policies, decisions, and whatnot than friends &amp; family living in JA. When people are busy hustling for a livelihood, they don't have time to keep up with more &quot;abstract&quot; or far-reaching news.
