1) Do you have ANY idea who difficult it is to get a new passport somewhere? No, it's not impossible, and I may do it someday, but it is a process that I am unable to do at this time. I'm locked down working in Asia for a few more years before I can do such a thing. But even then, I would not renounce your citizenship. See #2 for why I would not.

2) I still have family there. I'd rather not have to apply for a visa, and maybe get denied, if I had to return home to visit my family, go to a funeral or visit someone who was ill. Perhaps if I had nobody left there, I would have no need to return.

Hey, if the shit hits the fan, I want to be there to do my part.
