Or maybe you struggle, even with familiar faces? New research by the University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus has shown that when it comes to recognising people the Malaysian Chinese have adapted their facial recognition techniques to cope with living in a multicultural environment.

Be Kind – What Goes Around Comes Back Around Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind. ~Henry James The Chain of Love “One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even In the dim light of day, he could see she needed help.
