[Blind-international-students] How's life for blind people in your native country?

[kwakmiso at aol.com]

Hello all,
I think it's an interesting topic to share with others.
I lived in South Korea for about 13 years.
I think USA definitely has more opportunities and better 
treatment/opinion toward visually impaired persons than South Korea.
For instance, I attended school for the blind in Korea, but I go to a 
public school in USA.
There are some exceptions, but most visually impaired people work for 
similar jobs. The job choice is more limited in South Korea compare to 
US.

Hi all,

Do you think blind people in America have the most social and economic
opportunities? Or do you know of other societies that fare better,
such as Britain, Scandinavian nations, Australia, Hong Kong, Canada,
or some other places.?  How's life for blind people in your native
country?

Thanks for sharing.

Phil
