Actually you don't hear posh RP accents in London these days. Most educated folk speak SSBE (Standard Southern British Accent) or MLE (Multi-Cultural London English). Even within the royal family, accents have shifted. Just compare the speech of Prince Harry or William with that of their father...

A reminder to the clueless thread-starter: Iranians are Persians, whatever the religion. "Persian Iranians" is a tautology. Unlike the Egyptians, whose ancient heritage has been entirely annihilated and replaced by the Arab culture and Islam, Persian culture and language are still surviving...

K-pod again. We're seeing the kind of bizarre accidents that never happened the advent of K-pods.

How come M'sian Indians and Malays speak fabulous Mandarin, but Sinkie minorities cannot? Malaysia boleh!

1. Husband given sole custody of all 3 kids means wife had affair or exhibited unreasonable behavior 2. Bayi judge from misogynistic culture tilted the judgement further in husband's favor

Typical entitled chow ang moh thinking he can ride roughshod over natives in an ex-colony. In Thailand he'd have been beaten up.

He said 'hai' ('cunt' in Cantonese) and tiu nei lou mou ('fuck your mother'). Similar to CCB and KNN in Hokkien.

Looks good. The Malayalis and Bengalis are good with fish dishes. Good Singapore Indian restaurants are way overpriced, even compared with top curry houses in London. Will check it out when I next drive up to KL.

Karma is catching up with him. Putin's time is also almost up.

Case of pot calling the kettle black. Israel is the real terrorist state. And the US is an imperial power gone rogue under Trump.

Brutalism is Marxist? Where did that come from? @laksaboy is seeing commie ghosts everywhere. The truth is that Brutalist architecture was a style developed in the UK after the World War for designing public buildings. https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/brutalist-architecture-101 What...

The meaning of 'self-defence' has been taken to a transcendent level.:rolleyes: Why would the Trump admin even try to justify anything these days?

Not surprising. Japan and South Korea, being homogeneous societies for thousands of years, are also the most xenophobic and racist countries in Asia. China has a much greater tolerance for foreigners, having been invaded by barbarians from the north and west and trading with countries through...

Tiong wife. That explains it.

No, you don't usually see Chinese HR managers hire their entire kampung from China in local companies here. Only the Indians do that... it's very bad in the banking and finance sectors and in the MNCs. And this started way back in the '90s.

When the HR manager is Indian, it's only a matter of time before he hires his entire village back home. This is a trait you don't see with Chinese nationals. Just look at the management teams of Stanchart and DBS. When Amex Singapore was at The Arcade, there's was a joke going around that you...
