Have a look at this link: A Visit To The City Of Bangkok | Handphone Bekas dan Baru
"New York City Is Known As The City That Never Sleeps Well In South East Asia Its Twin Sister Is Bangkok Also Known As The City Of Angels Although I could never figure out why.... from visit-chiang-mai-online.com"
I would hardly quote that website as anything of import.Just because it's on a webpage doesn't mean its accurate. Even the writer didn't have a clue what it meant. Looks like cut paste gibberish to me.Quote:

Australia Sydney, Australia
People's Republic of China Beijing, China

Hard to believe anyone would call them twins! Must be fraternal? That list is bizarre--Cape Town?? One of the most beautiful cities in the world (and really small compared to BKK) A true head-scratcher.
