In my opinion‚ I strongly agree with Disney’s decision to pursue a localization approach in emerging market. As it can be seen that Disneyland in Hong Kong failed because they lack of localization. For example‚ Disneyland Hong Kong assumed customers would follow the standard pattern of spending on average 20 minutes at meals. However the Hong Kong customers spend an average of 40 minutes‚ causing undesirable backups since Hong Kong Disneyland did not provide enough restaurants to serve customer need

a chance before you bite my head off! My English teacher gave all of my class topics to write a speech on. This is the topic I received and‚ (as you can see)‚ I have to agree with the motion that “Teenagers today have too much freedom”. The following are the 9 reasons my teacher required us to brainstorm: 1. Parents don’t know where their children are anymore. 2. Not everywhere is a war zone‚ but not everywhere is safe. So‚ teenagers shouldn’t have as much freedom as they do to roam dangerous

As a child my aunt Nicole Jager would always be baking some sort of sugary foods for my other cousins and I.

“It is pointless to deny the logical necessity of the existence of God.” First of all‚ we must ask: is the existence of God an analytic statement‚ or is it synthetic. An analytic statement is one which is impossible to think of as false. For example‚ a triangle having three internal angles which total 180 degrees is an analytic statement because it it impossible to think of a triangle in any other way. This therefore means that the proposition is logically necessary and it would be incoherent

In such situations‚ most people act instinctively‚ and what they do is more spontaneous than calculated. That spontaneity is usually the subconscious reflection of character‚ and because life for most of us is lived on an even keel‚ how we behave in emergency is largely unpredictable‚ unless we have been previously

It is difficult for the reader to feel much affection for the protagonist in Wolff’s memoir. Do you agree?
