Yeah but there is real terrorism in the Phillipines. They have both a moslem extremist movement and a maoist communist liberation guerilla. It's actually a bit dangerous there.
I don't know why Thailand is on the list though. As far as I know, it's a completely buddhist country. I think there have been some rather violent anti-government protests with a a bit of violence for a while. Maybe that is the reason... I don't think there is even a moslem minority there.
Kazakhstan on the other hand, is a completely peaceful country. I THINK!!!
