TAN QUEE LAN STREET
And so, just now lady boss asked me where's the meeting place for tonight's client dinner, I said "XXX RESTAURANT AT TAN KI LAN STREET.
Lady boss face turned black. She said why I am so vulgar. I say where got vulgar. I have been pronouncing this road as TAN KI LAN STREET for yonks!
Lady boss tell me cut the crap. she said it is pronounced as TAN KEY LAN, and NOT TAN KI LAN. She said KEY as in Robertson QUAY, Clarke QUAY.
I believe I am right. It is TAN KI LAN.
SERIOUS ... ANY SENIOR SAMMYBOYERS CAN CONFIRM THAT I AM RIGHT AND SHE IS WRONG?
