The number of foreign people in Daegu has been increasing due to growing demand for technicians with specific skills and teachers teaching foreign languages.I didn't realize that there were so many Muslims in the area until I read the article about Muslims in Daegu. It seems to me that most people including myself have been indifferent about them regarding their contribution as a part of driving forces in our society. Maybe it's many fixed ideas that create this attitude as the article stated. Many scholars believe that understanding cultural customs is one of the first essential conditions needed to become a global citizen. By reading The Yeungnam Observer I am encouraged to think about these important but easy facts and learn much about them. I hope The Observer continues to write about interesting and relevant issues.
