My friend just give me some info that Switzerland has a strange ISO Country Code and not like other countries in the world, eg:
Malaysia - MY
Singapore - SG
Sweden - SE
Australia - AU
Austria - AT
United States- US
United Kingdom - GB
Pakistan - PK
Portugal - PT
Switzerland - CH
The ISO code for Switzerland is CH and not even single letter to represent the word SWITZERLAND, like other country.
Do you know why?? Do you know what is CH stand for?? Well, let us share the info...
Switzerland, as what we know, it is a 'free' country, 'free' banking system, 'free' trade market, 'free' law place and no favoritism in this country. Switzerland already recognized by the world with this kind of trademark from early days, today and forever. The government of Switzerland always proactive to maintain the status quo. In fact, there are 4 national languages in Switzerland -German, French, Italian and Rhaeto-Romanisch.
In order not to show any favoritism towards any nation, they have chosen the letter CH which mean Confederatio Helvetica, the LATIN word for Switzerland Confederation. This is to show how they are trying to convince the world that they are the only place with no favoritism practiced.
