For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Changchun Friends

a great way to get involved

 

I was with my old mate Pierre the other night at Granma's havin a quiet brew, and we got to talking about national anthems. We both agreed that the Russian National Anthem is the best. Really powerful stuff. I also added in that the French, although somewhat violent in its lyrics, is a crackerjack anthem.

What do think?

Pick one, but not your own nations anthem, and the first country to reach, lets say, 10 hits will be the winner. I start the ball rolling at The Russian Federation, first hit.

 

Russian Federation - 3 hits

Brazil - 2

DPRK - 1

China - 1

Australia - 1

Turkmenistan - 8

Angola - 0

Togo - 5

England - 0

USA - 0

20th Century Fox - 1

Democratic Republic of the Congo - 8

 

And you can add any other counrty to this already comprehensive list.

Sounds like a "KTV-Sing Your National Anthem Night"* is just around the corner.

*Or at least drunken renditions of the "Raise the Flag" song from the last World Cup...
