Black Heart Khaw, in a lame defence of his silly proposal to send old peasants to Johore hospice decides to confuse stupid peasants. He claims to be a filial Confucian and pious Buddhist and will not dream of sending old peasants to cheaper hospice overseas.
Heartless Khaw could simply denied that he made those comments and simply sue Doc Chee using the kangaroo courts. However to showcase his lack of intelligence, he re-brands himself as a Confucian and Buddhist.
That is akin to saying he is a catholic and protestant at the same time.
During the days of Imperial China, you are either a confucian or buddhist in the eyes of the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven usually play off the factions against each other to retain control of the Imperial Court. Hence the Confucian and Buddhists were often at odds with each other over vested interests. Both parties routinely criticise each other using pogrom style jargon. Hence when Penang Laksa says he is a Confucian and Buddhist, he is simply insulting the intelligence of the average chinkish peasant.
