Burka in Germany: Interior minister calls for curbs

My thoughts have always been that if foreigners enter a country to work and live, they should adopt the customs of that host country. This would include at least making some effort to learn the language. This doesn't mean these foreigners should abandon their ethnic heritage and customs but rather practice their customs in private.

We have always had a saying here, " When in Rome, do as they do "

( added ) It's certainly not realistic, reasonable or fair to expect the host country to adopt or adapt to whatever customs they brought with them.

I know if I visited the U.K, I would make every effort to learn their language
