But he speaks with a Singlish accent: https://www.scmp.com/video/scmp-originals/3008409/how-chinas-tiktok-video-app-became-global-sensation

Jalan Temiang-Pantai, not North-South Highway

Global warming. 50 years ago, we had to wear a sweater to school on cool, rainy January mornings. Those days are long gone.

This chap is trilingual la... best of 3 worlds. Many Penang Chinese who attend Chung Ling High School can't even speak fluent Malay.

True blue Melayu. Mother sent him to Chinese kindergarten. The hardworking ethic has rubbed off on him. Good on him. There's more inter-racial, inter-cultural exchange in M'sia than in Sg because of our stupid mother tongue policy - Chinese must learn Chinese, Malay must learn Malay, Indians...

Both are dictators, but LKY was smart and pragmatic while Trump is dumb and clueless.

The Middle Way transcends eating or not eating meat. It's primarily about raising consciousness and vibration and transcending all earthly attachments.

Buddha was enlightened. He had transcended all man-made dogma and injunctions. Christians and Muslims today would do well to emulate him. Just so, he had tried all kinds of extreme ascetic practices in his early days and almost died from starvation. Then he saw the light and preached the Middle...

When I was in Bali 25 years ago, I saw topless women bathing in the River Ayung.

Sate started in Indonesia, then spread to the rest of the region. I still prefer Malay satay cooked over a charcoal fire - the marinade, the peanut sauce, the ketupat... the Chinese or Baba versions don't come close.

Best satay is in Kajang, hands down. No other satay - Indon, Thai, Sg - comes close. The marinade is the key: lemongrass, shallots, turmeric, galangal, coriander, garlic, salt, sugar. And must be grilled over charcoal fire.

How to make American great again when you're slashing funding to unis, slashing R & D funding, limiting influx of foreign talent by deporting foreign students and shutting down trade with ridiculous tariffs? America's strength has always been its ability to attract the brightest talents from...

Trump can fantasize on, as he's been doing since his first term. The Canadians won't bite. In fact, Canadians are now boycotting the US. ------------ https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/27/king-charles-canada-parliament-speech-trump King Charles hails ‘strong and free’ Canada in speech...

My favourite is Java arabica - fragrant aroma, low acidity, smooth, full body. The African coffees tend to have relatively high acidity and lighter body. The central American coffees are generally low acidity, medium body, chocolatey but not as aromatic as Java. Yunnan is a relatively newcomer...

Actually can. Strawberries are grown in Cameron Highlands, for instance. Some of the best SE Asian arabica coffee is grown in the Mandaling and Toba area in North Sumatra by the Bataks, at about 1,200m - 1,500m above sea level (4,000 to 5,000 ft), roughly similar latitude and topography to...

Pahang (Raub & Bentong) grows the best MSK because they're grown at altitude (800-1,200 ft above sea level). More fertile soil, better drainage, cooler temp. Johor plantations (mainly in Segamat) are all lowland plantations - even the best strains will turn out mediocre.
