Govt's cruel joke on Hokkiens? Or desperate measure to win votes?

[Confuseous]

It was reported that

"GRASSROOT leaders and volunteers are learning Hokkien in an effort to improve communication with elderly residents. A group of about 30 attended the first of 10 weekly basic conversational classes at Nee Soon South Community Club. MP Lee Bee Wah decided the set up the lessons after noticing how volunteers had difficulties explaining the various govt schemes such as the Pioneer Generation package - to elderly residents who can speak only Hokkien."

Way, dialect now so important ah?

Lesson 1, when greeting your residents say " wah lau eh! Kwa simi lanjiao!
Lesson 2, when you meet a Caucasian , especially the men say " lu kwa simi, ang mo tua lee?"..

 

[ginfreely]

This Pioneer generation thing is like a circus, everyday see the advert and hear the song promoting it. As what someone said, it is basic responsibility of government but now become big PR opportunity for PAP.

 

[Thick Face Black Heart]

The only hokkien befitting the pap is kan nin Lau bu chao chee bye, nah bei hong kan, chao lam par chee, chao lanjiao.

If they were really genuine about it, maybe they should allow Cantonese or hokkien shows on TV.

2. Most of the road in Sickapoor change to Mandarin remember??

Kandang Kerbau becomes Chioa Chioa, sound like Lan Chioa!!
Nee Soon become Yi Shun!! Beh Shan Teng become Bi shan!

3. All TV show Hokkien and Cantonese drama from HK and Taiwan changed to
Mandarin!!

4. Make Redifusion Bankrupt closed down that station! Lei Tai Saw die of heart attack!!

5. School name were change and make it sound like in China!!

6. Biggest mistake of PAPAYA is to allow influx of PRC, mostly unwanted trash from China!!
Create more social problem example you can see middle age lady shit in public place she though no
one see her shitting!!
7. Now influx of Pinoy, Vietcong, Myanmar and Ah Neh to take over Voters job!!

 

[turbulent]

Lan pa pa lan

 

[borom]

The biggest mistake the Hokkiens (who form the biggest group in Singapore ) has made was to allow a Hakka family to dominate them and a Hainanese to screw up their HDB prices.

For all their business acumen, the Fujian people do not seem to be adept at politics and I do not know of any Fujian native that have made it to the top in Chinese politics.
