How to buy bitcoin anywhere in the world, as long as it's in one of the 31 countries on the list.

Well, looking fast through the resource, I'd say it's perfect for those selling services or products through Bitcoin. There must be a lot of clients asking "How do I pay with Bitcoin?". Now you just give them this link and you're done with the support responsibility.

Interesting guide, I like the country overview, but it's actually Switzerland not Swiss.

Swiss Government disagrees. (On the other hand, indeed Swiss Government is not the authority on English language usage.)

"Welcome to the official website of the Swiss Government", quoting from https://www.admin.ch/gov/en/start.html

Switzerland is to Swiss as England is to English.

The country is Switzerland; if you are from Switzerland you are Swiss.

Under the third bullet point for Israel it says:

"Other: Citizen of the United Arab Emirates can use bitoasis.net to buy Bitcoins directly; in Kuwait you can buy Bitcoins on bitfils.com; in Vietnam you find the Broker bitcoinvietnam.com.vn and the exchange vbtc.vn; in Malaysia coinbox.biz and coins.my provide an online wallet and an easy method to buy and sell Bitcoins, while oinhako.com is a wallet with the option to buy and sell for Malaysia and Singapur and bitx.co offers an exchange for Malaysia and Indonesia. In Indonesia, you can also buy Bitcoins at bitcoin.co.id. Citizen of Taiwan can use maicoin.com to buy, sell and use Bitcoins."

These should probably be broken out into separate paragraphs for each country. I think that someone looking to buy bitcoin in Kuwait is very unlikely to be looking in the Israel section. But otherwise, I find this very useful.
