- Credit has several meanings. "Give me a little credit" is a casual phrase whose meaning I cannot explain concisely. You would say it in response to someone suggesting that you may have done something without thinking. "Did you call the right number?" "Give me a little credit: I called the number twice before." Credit is also a phrase used often in financial terms. A credit card is a card which allows one to spend money in advance of earning it. The bank extends a "credit" on the assumption that you will pay it back in a timely fashion. Credits like Italki credits are a similar concept: the user has purchased the credits, meaning they have already entrusted the money to Italki and, in return, Italki distributes them at the appropriate times. Hopefully, that was of some use.0 votedOctober 27, 20130
Sunny Day
Good morning! How's the weather where you are? in you place? Today is a nice day in Shanghai with warm sunshine. I finished one of my handicraft last night and i am very happy, because I can go out and make myself relax. I decided to go to Fudan University after lunch and go to the church at night.
Half a month ago,my good friend went to Taiwan for a trip. and She'll be back tonight. We will have dinner together. She likes spicy food, maybe we'll go to a Sichuan restaurant. I never been to Taiwan. There are Baxianshan, Sun Moon Lake and so many beautiful places. I am hoping she can tell me something new. I heard that Taiwan's food was very famous and tasty, I wish I could can go there someday.*****
Great job!

I won't list all the ones I have watched because it would sound as though all I do is watch Korean dramas. <img title="Laughing" src="http://www.italki.com/Scripts/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" />
So far, my favorite has been Shut Up Flower Boy Band 닥치고 꽃미남밴드. The friendship between the boys was one of the best I've seen on television. It was funny, heartbreaking, and touching. I recommend it to anyone who asks (and a few who don't).

The Ministry of Health and Welfare has announced an improvement measure of the national pension scheme calling for relieving the force collection. However, the national resistance does not seem to be blown won over easily as the remedy is not the fundamental measures which could work off their intense grievance surrounding the state pension but temporary workarounds.
Above all, the government needs to recognize the cause for the distrust of the pension fund that it is not because of a lack of understanding but a contradiction of the system itself.
The most decisive divisive part of “Secret of the National Pension”, spreaded via the internet, which caused public indignation was that in case of a the situation of receiving an old age pension and a survivor’s one simultaneously, only one of them is able to be drawn drown.
Although it is a desperate issue for the pensioners, the government has been propagandizing promoting this remedy without notifying people, people without notifying this article to them as if there is no need to be concerned about their old age.
The government and National Pension Corp. have to solve the problem from an apology for having been bent on collection of the insurance premium concealing the blind spot in the system.
Patching up the problem without reforming the system itself will not dispel the distrust and complaints at all.
The just-announced remedy does not include any contents like an improvement of unreasonable parts of levying premium or receiving pension, as well streamlining the Corp.’s lax operation so far. The government said a comprehensive plan will be provided by the end of this year placing the system management council. However, it is simply hard to believe the government’s plan in view of the progress so far passed. This is because although it was already said to be revised at the end of last year, but became opposed or postponed being mindful of voters.
The national pension scheme, the last social safety net of an aging society, cannot be abolished at all. However, a sense of relative deprivation among people must be relieved through fixing the problems which have already begun to surface.
In addition, embarking on a drastic reform is needed, such as basic pension scheme for the lower income bracket. The 17th national assembly has to resolve the subscribers’ frustration and stave off the exhaustion of the fund through revision of the pension law as the priority.***
