Which part of this Asian address is the street? What is this accent and is it correct? Which one of these numbers is the postcode? In which language should I be corresponding? How do I salute this person? In which order should I output this name? For every individual entered on to a world-wide address database, these questions, and others, need to be answered accurately and correctly. This one-stop reference work covering 194 countries will enable you to have the most accurate international marketing database around - one that makes optimal use of the direct marketing activity generated in your company and ensures that your post is delivered to the correct destination and recipient.
