SouthKorea will be interesting indeed.

Is Burma even a country anymore? I thought they officially changed the name to Myanmar many years ago.

Since 1989 the military authorities in Burma have promoted the name Myanmar as a conventional name for their state; this decision was not approved by any sitting legislature in Burma, and the US Government did not adopt the name.

So yes, it's still Burma.

Wow...most interesting in that there weren't any bids at the end!

Kind of like a reverse auction -- all the excitement happened early on...

That was for South Korea. North Korea was at ~340 before I began watching S. Korea exclusively.

Oops, yes, sorry...I thought he was asking about SK.

Didn't notice North Korea either, as it turns out...

good luck, a couple are interested, so perfect auction conditions
