Probably, but they have the oil & the money...

Quite true. I'm still curious as to why holding a shoe in your hand and showing it to someone is viewed as being deeply offensive.

To them, it's a bit like picking up a tulip and waving it at somebody in the high street.

Why is waving two fingers around one way considered bad, yet twist your hand around and it's like OK man?

Anyways I would imagine most of your students will probably be from Pakistan/India.
