This is all over the news in Australia. Labour party senator Penny Wong is the federal finance minister. Her father is a Hakka from Kota kinabalu (maybe another descendant of Lan fang republic).
During the parliamentary hearing on Wednesday, a Liberal party goon interrupted her by "meowing", an obvious reference to catfights. This was swiftly returned by a Hakka style lashing and further allegations of sexism from the Labour bench. The cat-caller has since apologised. Btw, Penny Wong is openly lesbian.

“It is just extraordinary. The blokes are allowed to yell but if a woman stands her ground, you want to make that kind of comment. It's not schoolyard politics, mate.”
