Researching for a Research Paper

Okay. So I have to write this research paper about something that deals with my family history... Well, I don't really know what I want to do. I was talking to my dad though and he gave me a few ideas. One that I found kinda intriguing was on the topic of Thailand. We went there for family vacation this year (so this would be really recent family history). He told me that while we were there, the entire country was under curfew, which I didn't know at the time. That got me thinking...
  • Why were they under curfew?
  • Is Thailand really a safe place for people, like my family, to visit?
  • How has their government affected the way things work in that country now?
  • Has their government's actions affected other countries in any way?
There are more questions I have, but honestly I don't think I could write an eight-page research paper on them, so I suppose I'll stick to narrowing down those ones up there. So yeah... Wish me luck! (I'm gonna need it.)

Thesis: Despite safety concerns such as possible crime, the risk of contracting diseases, and political unrest between its neighboring nations, Thailand remains a safe place for tourists to visit when proper precautions are taken.

  1. I really like the way your thesis is in a way, backwards. It presents an argument and introduces an organized structure. I can't find anything wrong with it.
